The daily farming life of the black-bellied young lady

Chapter 12
After Chu Ying finished making the quilt, she looked at the bamboo shoots and bamboo whips in the back basket. It was time to clean up the bushes behind the house and plant these bamboos. But she only knew moso bamboo, and there were too many other bamboo species to distinguish. It's not a problem, it's up to their own luck whether they can live after planting.

But the bushes are too big, and all the credits I have made in the past few days are only more than 10 steps in progress. I can only use fire to make it faster, but Chu Ying has difficulty estimating the area of ​​the bushes and the number of rabbits in the bushes. Can open a slice first.

But when Chu Ying ignited a small part of it and went back to fetch water, the fire had gradually grown, and the wind blew the flames to spread in all directions.

Chu Ying went home and brought a sickle and tried her best to cut out a isolation zone, but the thorns were so thorny, Chu Ying's single clothes had been torn many times, and she didn't care about her injuries. What if the fire spread to the mountain like this? Dry, and I don't know where the evil wind came from, without warning.

Chu Ying stomped and chopped, and finally figured out the thorn bushes. Seeing the tall trees all over her eyes, she felt even worse. Chu Ying saw that the wind direction was east-west, and it hadn't spread to Chu Ying's position. The grass on the ground is burning, and then it is extinguished with fresh branches, and it burns from the west where the fire is most fierce to the east.

"Chu Ying, Chu Ying, where are you, Chu Ying?" Since the bushes had not been burning for a long time, but the fire was still relatively large, Wang Naiyuan originally wanted to tell Chu Ying that Lu Meng's family was in trouble and the whole village would go to help. But seeing the fire spreading behind the house, and there was no trace of Chu Ying in the house, she was afraid that she would go to put out the fire by herself.

Chu Ying is burning out a isolation zone like crazy. Where can I hear Wang Naiyuan's shouts? Although she is exhausted, but seeing the fire that is still spreading to the east, Chu Ying can only fight her spirits. This kind of fire is not Chu Ying. I have never encountered it before. I was trapped by forest fires several times before I went on missions. Fortunately, everyone cooperated perfectly and finally came out.

But now Chu Ying is not only protecting herself, but also saving the woods behind her and other people's fields in front of her. "Chu Ying, what are you doing? Why don't you run away?"

Wang Naiyuan grabbed Chu Ying's arm and wanted to pull her out, "Brother Wang, I can't leave. You burned a place like me. If I leave, I can't imagine the consequences if the fire spreads to the woods behind."

Wang Naiyuan looked at the countless small scratches on Chu Ying's body and the burns on some parts of her arms. Although she felt distressed, Chu Ying was right. It would be fine if there were fewer bushes. , will alarm the mountain god and there will be disasters in the future.

The two worked together to burn a separation belt, "Wang Er, Chu Ying?" Qian Yong and the other brothers were still soaking their feet at home when they heard Wang Liyuan running to say that Chu Ying was burned to death, so they picked up their shoes and ran away come over.

By the time they arrived, the fire had been reduced by half, but the bushes were larger and were still spreading to the east.Picking up a piece of scorched land that had no fire, I saw two people in the distance holding torches and setting fire.

"What are you two doing? Are you playing with fire?" Qian Yong looked at the disgraced Wang Er who was still alive, and excitedly went up to hug him.

"Quickly put out the one we burned. Hurry up."

When it was getting dark, Qian Yong, Lu Meng, Wang Er and Chu Ying sat slumped on the ground, looking at the scorched land in front of them and each other's embarrassing appearance, they all laughed.

"Silly, why are you playing with fire? Are you not afraid of bedwetting at night?" Qian Yong gave Wang Er a weak blow.

"I'm afraid, I was thinking about roasting rabbits, but I didn't expect to go home and get some salt, and the fire would start by itself. Haha." Chu Ying can't tell the fact that she deliberately wanted to burn this bush, just say it It has to be flattened.

"Silly, where are your rabbits?" Lu Meng came from a distance leading four charred rabbits. "Here, how many more are there? Chu Ying, you burned all the rabbit's nests. It's cruel enough."

"You found it. It's all like this. It smells good." Chu Ying took one of them, bit off the burnt part outside, and started to gnaw.

"Wang Er, come." The brothers sat on the ground and ate the burnt rabbit. "Chu Ying, wash up later, go to my mother and get some medicine to rub."

As soon as Wang Naiyuan said that Qian Yong and the others also saw that there were many scratches on Chu Ying's clothes covered in charcoal black.

"Okay." Chu Ying looked at the bushes that were burnt with only carbon left. She originally wanted to burn them gradually, but the evil wind blew up and broke the plan. Concern.

Chu Ying went to look for rabbits again, and gave the three rabbits she found to Wang Naiyuan and the others. "It's a good thing you're here, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see me. Take this rabbit back. You all go home and wash. Thank you very much."

"Oh, by the way, did Wang Er tell you? The day after tomorrow, my house will drink Liangjiu, so you can come when you have dinner. If you are already like this, don't come to help."

"Okay." Just now I was so dizzy in a hurry that I didn't notice it, but now I calm down and feel that my whole body is burning.

"Then let's go." Wang Naiyuan and Lu Meng waved goodbye, and helped Chu Ying to the house.

"You don't have a bucket here, how can you take a shower, go directly to my house." Wang Naiyuan closed Chu Ying's door, squatted on the ground and let Chu Ying come up.

"No, I can go. Ah..." Chu Ying pulled up her trouser legs and looked at the blisters on them.

Wang Naiyuan hugged Chu Ying in his arms, "Don't move, the more you move, the more painful it will be." Chu Ying endured the pain and couldn't say anything.

"My God, you're alive and looking for death yet? Liyuan, go and boil the water." Liyuan knew that Chu Ying and the others were fighting the fire, but she didn't expect to be injured like this, and she lost the interest in bullying her, so she hurried to burn it. water.

"I'm fine, really." Chu Ying squeezed out these few words with pain.

"He said it's okay, what if a little girl is injured like this and has a scar? Will she marry or not? You go out." Aunt Wang pushed Wang Naiyuan, who was at a loss, out the door, and took a woman's dress, Put it on a low bed.

"This is Liyuan's when she was a child. They are all clean. Don't mind." Chu Ying forced a smile.

Aunt Wang used scissors to cut off the clothes sticking to her skin. Looking at Chu Ying who was trembling slightly, such a small child bit her lip and did not cry out, just as stubborn as her mother.

"Bite your chopsticks, don't break your lips." Aunt Wang wiped Chu Ying's hands and legs with a face towel as quickly as possible.Take out the ointment and apply it slowly, then wrap it in a clean sackcloth.

"You can't touch the water these few days. You take this medicine, twice a day." Chu Ying took a small porcelain bottle given to her by Aunt Wang. Chu Ying knew that medicine is still relatively precious in this age, and waited for herself to heal. I want to give Mrs. Wang a new bottle.

"Thank you." Chu Ying got up slowly, trying not to scratch the wound.

"Chu Ying, eat at my house before going, you can't cook like this. Mother, you say yes."

"Yes, Chu Ying, it's just a matter of adding a chopstick."

"Thank you anyway, I'd better go back, it's already very troublesome." Chu Ying walked slowly.

"I'll hug you." Aunt Wang looked at Wang Naiyuan who was carrying Chu Ying away, and shook her head.

Looking at the carbon field, Chu Ying didn't know whether to be happy or sad. "Brother Wang, thank you."

"Thank you for what the neighbors say, they all help each other." Chu Ying lay down after eating some leftovers. Tomorrow, she can look at the forest and tidy up the burned bushes. She didn't dare to move on the bed, it hurt when she moved, so she could only fall asleep on her back.

"Chu Ying, are you asleep?" Wang Naiyuan saw that Chu Ying didn't gnaw, and put the wooden barrel with 3 sets of autumn clothes at the door.

When Chu Ying climbed up with difficulty and opened the door, Wang Naiyuan had already gone far away. Chu Ying looked at the three clean sets of small autumn clothes and was very grateful in her heart.
