The daily farming life of the black-bellied young lady

Chapter 33 Doubt and Crisis
Seeing that Chu Ying hadn't come back yet, Wang Naiyuan wanted to invite Chu Ying to celebrate the New Year together in the evening.

"Don't look, Ying girl will of course stay at her grandmother's house for a long time, and the Chinese New Year will definitely be over there, so hurry up and help." Aunt Wang tied one end of the washed pig intestines and asked Wang Naiyuan to help with the pig blood. Pour it in.

"Her grandma was not a good person in the first place. If Auntie Chu went back and asked for money to treat Chu Ying's illness, Auntie Chu would not go to Xianling Temple to ask the gods to bless her, so she would not stumble and fall, and Chu Ying would not be alone. Alone." Wang Liyuan put the washed pork in a pot, filled it with cold water, and lit a fire.

"Don't say this in front of Ying girl, the relationship between the two families is just a little bit better, and everything is going well with family harmony."

"Her cruel grandma drove Aunt Chu out of the house a long time ago, and now the cat is crying and the mouse is pretending to be merciful. This must not be her own."

"Enough, let's make you angry. Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. If you don't know, don't talk nonsense." Aunt Wang glanced at Wang Liyuan. court disaster.

Wang Naiyuan only cared about her work, and didn't listen to a word they said. Chu Ying didn't bring anything with her when she left. Although Chu Ying is a junior, she should still bring something for the New Year. Forget, I have to send something to Chu Ying, and I can't let them look down on me.

"Hey, you child, where are you going? Where are you going with the pork? You..." Aunt Wang looked at Wang Naiyuan in a daze, and walked out with a piece of pork.

When Wang Naiyuan went out, he saw the second aunt and the first aunt of the Chu family coming down from Chu Ying's house, "Ms. Chu, did you send Chu Ying back?"

Chu Qinghu pulled Chu Qinghe who was about to speak just now, telling her to keep quiet, "No, that's right, I just came to get some clothes for Chu Ying, didn't I?"

"Then why didn't you bring any clothes?"

"Oh, my sister, didn't I ask you to take it? Hurry up and get it. Which girl are you sending the meat to?" Wang Naiyuan looked at Chu Qinghu's tightly clenched hands, and felt nervous with her. Expression, feel something is wrong.

"It's nothing, when will Chu Ying come back? After the next year?" Chu Qinghu was a little confused when Wang Naiyuan asked when she would come back.

"Not necessarily, the girl will come back when she has fun." Chu Ying has always been different from other children. She has to take care of the vegetables and hens at home, and Chu Ying will not stay for long.

"Okay, go slowly." Wang Naiyuan watched the two leave in a hurry and felt that things might not be that simple, so he went back and put some pork to go to Chu's house.

"Where are you going? It's Chinese New Year."
"I went to Chu's house, but I felt something was wrong."
"What are you concerned with other people's affairs? Come back to me." Aunt Wang came out and saw that Wang Naiyuan had already run away.

Grandma Chu of the Chu family fell into bed with anger, but couldn't sleep every day because of Chu Ying's affairs. In her dreams, she dreamed of her miserable daughter. Every time she woke up, she didn't look at Chu Ying, and she felt even more guilty.

Seeing the daughters coming back in the ox cart, but still not seeing Chu Ying, he could only sigh, "Go out and look for them, if you can't find them, don't come back."
Chuqing River and Chuqing Lake who had just returned home hadn't had a sip of water, and their buttocks were still warm, when Grandma Chu sent them out to find someone, so they could only put on their coats and continue to look for them, but the child didn't go home, where could he go? Woolen cloth?Recently, wild wolves came out to pick up people, so I was afraid that the child would be eaten by wild wolves.

"Have you heard that the child from the Chu family was lost, probably picked up by wild wolves, such a small child, so pitiful."
"What's so pitiful, it's the daughter of the Chu family's little girl, her fate is very hard, she can't control her father and her mother, and it's better to be taken away by wolves, so as not to harm others."
Wang Naiyuan saw a few women gathered together saying this to Chu Ying, rolled up his sleeves and walked in front of them. "Have some virtue in your mouth, or you will be said to have restrained your father and mother when you leave." Several women saw that Wang Naiyuan was not from the same village, so they left after saying a few words.

Wang Naiyuan felt that something was wrong at first, but now she confirmed her thoughts even more. Seeing that it was getting dark, she didn't know how many days Chu Ying had been lost.

"Who are you?"
"I'm Wang Naiyuan, I'm here to look for Chu Ying." Grandma Chu, who was lying on the recliner, looked at the strong man at the door.

"What's the matter? My granddaughter got lost a few days ago, did you find it?" Wang Naiyuan looked at her expression sourly, Grandma Chu who was lying on the bed wanted to scold those who lost Chu Ying, but All of a sudden I lost my breath.

"When did she get lost? Do you know which direction to go?" Wang Naiyuan knew that Chu Ying had been lost for 3 days, and ran out without hearing what Grandma Chu said.

Chu Ying, who was at the bottom of the valley, felt her ears burn, and she didn't know who was thinking about herself. Probably her own hen was starving to death and was complaining why she hadn't come home yet.

Chu Ying poured the fish soup into a bowl and served it to Yan Yushu. "It's Chinese New Year, there is no pepper wine, we use soup instead of the bar."
Chu Ying didn't know what kind of pepper and cypress wine, maybe it's the custom of Chinese New Year here. "What do you city people usually do during the Chinese New Year?"
"The family eats together, the elders give some small things, such as gold and jade, and then the adults watch the year, the children go to bed, get up early and wear new clothes to visit relatives." Chu Ying didn't ask more, but listened more. It seems that there is no firecracker here. Something like that, and there is no lucky money.

"What about you?" Chu Ying looked at the jungle behind and felt that there was something behind, so she added more firewood to the fire.

"It's nothing, it's about the same as you, but there's no gold or jade, so I'll give you a few copper coins at most." Chu Ying looked at two erratic green lights shining in the jungle.

There must be no modern lights here, and these should be the eyes of some kind of animal. Chu Ying clenched the knife tightly in her hand, in case something happened, Chu Ying could defend herself.

"Sigh, I didn't expect to spend this year with you, and I only ate fish." Chu Ying looked at the three fish in the clay pot and thought that it was already good. Today, these fish seem to have become a little slippery. Not as easy to catch as yesterday.

And I don't know if I have gained anything from the trap I made this afternoon, I have to go and see tomorrow.Because she didn't have too many tools, Chu Ying made a few gravity traps, and when the animal touched the big wood or big stone on the trap, it would crush the animal.

Chu Ying looked at the animals slowly walking towards her in the jungle, and they looked like wolves. Chu Ying lit a fire on the side close to the jungle, hoping that these fires could prevent the wolves from approaching, but if these wolves were killed because of the winter food It is troublesome to run to your side when you are lacking.

Chu Ying found a relatively straight wooden stick from the pile of firewood, sharpened one end to make a spear, and then slowly roasted the sharpened end on the fire for a while to reduce the moisture in the spearhead and make the spearhead harder.

"Go to sleep first, we'll change guards later." Chu Ying asked Yan Yushu, who didn't sleep much yesterday, to sleep first. Chu Ying wasn't worried that wolves would come over, but today she didn't see any animals except fish , and their two fresh, steaming meat balls are an irresistible temptation for wolves in this winter.
