Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 71

You must know that she is not very friendly every time she sees him, and at the beginning his expression was cold, and once he held a knife and his face was covered with blood, if such a person smiled at her, she would feel numb all over, There is an urge to run.

If he hadn't called her by her name, she wouldn't have misunderstood him. Did he keep calling her little girl? Xiuyao murmured in her heart. Last time he said that he would give the land to her family, she felt that something was wrong. She didn't expect to meet again. He even took the initiative to greet her and call her by her name!

She had already ignored what she met by the river a few days ago. It was her own convulsion and she took the initiative to say hello to him.

"Are you okay?" Xiuyao asked.

Qi Feng pointed to the front, "Go to the back and pass by here if you have something to do, you are picking up wheat."

Xiuyao hummed, "Then you go, I'm busy."

Qi Feng looked at it and said: "There is no wheat here, what are you picking?"

Xiuyao said: "If you walk around more, it will be fine. If they have taken it away, there must be nothing left."

Qi Feng nodded, "When I came here, I saw that there was a lot of land over there, you might as well pick it up there."

Xiuyao was a little moved, "Is it far? Is it to the north? That's where Lord Zhou's house is in Houzhen. I can't go."

Qi Feng naturally didn't know their grievances, and said: "It's not from their family, but from Shahe Village, and it's not far away."

Xiuyao was moved, "If no one cares, then I will go."

Qi Feng said: "Do you want me to send you?"

Xiuyao looked at the horse, riding a horse with him?That's not a good idea, she shook her head, "Thank you, just tell me the place, go ahead."

Qi Feng pointed it out to her, and Xiuyao said goodbye, and then she picked up her sheaf and was about to leave.

Qi Feng said again: "I'll give you a few melons here." As he spoke, he pulled out a net bag made from a broken fishing net from the strap on the horse's side, which contained four or five fist-sized melons, and he took out two stuffed one back into the pocket, and handed the rest to her.

Xiuyao swallowed her saliva, shook her head, "I can't ask for anything from you." He gave her things for a reason before, but now she didn't do anything for him.

Qi Feng's thick eyebrows frowned slightly, as if he didn't expect her to refuse, and didn't know how to go further. Seeing that she was going to leave, he stepped forward and stuffed her with a net pocket, saying: "How do I get to Houzhen?"

Xiuyao subconsciously said, "Go along here, turn north when you see a wide road, go to the end, cross a wide fork and cross a small bridge."

Qi Feng thanked, "I originally asked you to ask for directions." Then he turned and mounted his horse, and galloped away.

Xiuyao stared blankly at his back as he left in a hurry, if not for the heavy feeling in her arms reminding her, she would have thought she was just dreaming.Sighing, she just had to carry Melon on her back and go in the direction he pointed. After walking a little way, she slapped her head, "Ah, it's only convenient to walk from here, how can I show him that way?" She did it on purpose.

Anyway, he is riding a horse, so it’s not too far behind this road, Xiuyao scratched her head, since this road is much shorter than the one she pointed out, she crossed the road and walked for a while to find the land .

Sure enough, as he said, although not many, it was much more than the ones she passed by before. At least one piece of land can pick up a bundle of not too big and not too small. Maybe this family is richer, so the lost ones will be discarded.

Xiuyao had been picking up wheat for a long time, and when she saw that it was almost done, she straightened her waist and looked at it. The western sky was full of clouds and clouds, and the setting sun melted into gold, filling the sky and earth with a golden light. As beautiful as a dream.

There is another advantage in ancient times, the sun is scorching at noon, and in the evening, after the sun goes down, it will be slightly cooler, so that people who have been in the sun for a day can have a little coolness.

When she was tying the wheat, Xiuyao could smell a faint sweetness on her nose, it was the aroma of ripe melons and fruits, which was extraordinarily alluring.Xiuyao looked at the three melons, there was still a layer of white fluff on the Qingbi melon skin, and the skin was scratched a little bit, and the melon juice leaked out, so she couldn't help but want to taste it.

Well, it's a melon anyway, so it won't be a problem to eat it.

She hesitated for a moment, she was too thirsty, so she couldn't help taking out one. Anyway, this melon has no pesticides, so she wiped it on her clothes. Although she really wanted to gnaw off the skin, she couldn't bear it. It tastes crisp and sweet, and the entrance makes people have an irresistible temptation, and they want to eat more.

Xiuyao resisted and ate slowly, not wanting to gobble it up so as not to hurt her stomach.

While eating, she heard noises from a distance, mixed with yelling. She turned her head to look and found a group of people running towards this side. people?
She hurriedly took a look, and once again confirmed that the land where she picked up wheat did not belong to the Zhou family, so she was not afraid, and planned to leave with the wheat on her back.

At this time, the group of people also came to the front, and one of them shouted triumphantly: "Look where you are still running, look, she is still eating melons, she just stole it, arrest her!"

Two men who looked like servants ran over and grabbed Xiuyao with their hands.

Xiuyao hurriedly said: "It's not stolen." At this time, a person also walked up to her to see her appearance, and said with a smile: "Oh, isn't this Qin Xiuyao, haha, you finally fell into my hands hands." He curled his lips and said triumphantly, "Qin Xiuyao, you're out of luck!"

Seeing that it was Zhou Xiaopang, Xiuyao said angrily, "Don't make false accusations, I've been collecting wheat here, and I didn't go to your house."

Zhou Xiaopang sneered and said: "Poor ghost, who cares about picking up a few stalks of wheat? You can pick up our Zhou family's land and it will be enough to support your family. I'm talking about you stealing melons!"

Xiuyao said loudly: "The melon was given to me by someone else, not stolen."

Zhou Xiaopang clicked twice, snatched Xiuyao's melon, looked at it, and took a bite, "Hey, he said he didn't steal it. No one but our Zhou family could grow such a sweet melon! It was stolen. , Take her back to me. They gave it to me, you think the streets are full of Bodhisattvas, and you will give a melon to whoever you catch."

Xiuyao struggled, but was pinned down, she was angry and anxious, could it be that there is no kingly way, this ancient time-traveling life, I am really pissed off!His fat man caught someone on the side of the road and casually said that he was stealing melons, so he can't eat melons anymore?

But there are so many of them, so if they arrest her, they will arrest her. If they kill her later, maybe the Qin family will not dare to do anything. Anyway, it is not that nothing happened.

Xiuyao was so angry that her chest hurt. At this time, the sound of horseshoes came from a distance, and she soon came to her. Xiuyao suddenly turned her head to look at it. Your melon!"

When Qi Feng came out to do business, he happened to pass by the melon field in the north, and heard someone say melon thieves, and then he saw the villains of the Zhou family chasing and beating some half-grown children, including a few little girls who were less than ten years old. Xiuyao was about the same age, they chased all the way to this side, Qi Feng remembered that Xiuyao was still there and still had melons in his hands, if someone misunderstood her as stealing melons, wouldn't it hurt her.

So he galloped over immediately, just in time to see the scene in front of him.

He cupped his hands, and said to Zhou Xiaopang: "My little brother, that melon was indeed given to the little girl by me, you let her go."

Zhou Xiaopang yelled: "You said you gave it and you gave it? How do you prove it?"

Qi Feng frowned, he didn't expect this person to be so unreasonable, a melon is not a big deal, generally speaking, he would give face.He said: "This melon was bought from Feng Ji in the county, they can testify to me."

Zhou Xiaopang sneered: "Yo, I ran to the county to confront you, you can really talk."

A servant next to him reminded: "Young master, what Feng Ji sells are our melons."

Zhou Xiaopang groaned, looked at Qi Feng again, and pointed at him with the finger holding the melon, "Hey, who are you, I remind you not to meddle in your own business."

Qi Feng looked at him as a fat man, he looked like he was six or seven years old, or seven or eight years old. He was too fat to judge his actual age from his appearance. It seemed that he was too polite to him, and he should not be regarded as a person who could communicate normally.

"I don't like people pointing at me," he reminded.

Zhou Xiaopang is more doted on by his family than Qin Yang. When he heard that someone dared to say no to him, it didn't mean he was in trouble. He shouted: "What are you, I point, point, point... …”

A sound of "pa" interrupted his yelling, and he saw a shadow of a whip slapping his hand. Several servants hurriedly looked at it, for fear that the young master would be whipped, but found that the man had just whipped his hand. The melon was pulled out without touching him at all.

What a whip!Several people couldn't help but praise in their hearts.

"Ah, you are dead," Zhou Xiaopang quit, and jumped to let his servant beat someone.

It's okay for the boys to bully good children. The man in front of him is sitting arrogantly on the horse. He looks like he is only about ten years old, but his eyes are like knives, and he seems to be seventeen, eighteen or even older. Whoever dared to step forward to make a living, it was not obvious that they would be beaten, but the young master's order could not be ignored, so they could only pretend to yell and charge forward, no one rushed over.

Qi Feng looked at the two servants twisting Xiuyao again, and said coldly: "Let her go!"

The two young men didn't know why, so they let go of their hands because of his fright. Xiuyao rubbed her arms and saw that one of them was still holding her melon, so she quickly snatched it back, "I said it was given to me." melon!"

Zhou Xiaopang saw that the servants were afraid to come forward, so he became angry immediately, and he personally grabbed a whip from the servant and rushed over. His whip was not specially woven by Qi Feng for riding horses, but the one used for driving carts in the countryside. Stud whip.Sitting on the shaft to drive a car requires longer whip rope and whip body, which has an advantage over Qi Feng's.So even if a child swings it out, if it is drawn, it will be very painful.

Who knew that Qi Feng's hand seemed to be casually probing, and he grabbed the whip that was drawn, and then pushed it back forcefully, and when he let go, Zhou Xiaopang was turned over.Then he pouted again, broke the finely crafted bamboo whip, and threw it on the ground casually.

Zhou Xiaopang went crazy, he jumped up and screamed for someone to beat him, those people didn't dare to go forward, they were just servants, there was no need to die for the young master's willfulness, immediately the man looked like he was going to kill of.

At this time, someone ran over from behind and shouted as he ran: "Oh, stop, stop!" A man in his forties who looked like a butler ran over and said with a smile: "Oh, the flood has rushed into the Dragon King Temple. I don’t know the whole family, young master, this is the young Master Qi from the county, don’t hurt your peace.” As he said this, he stepped forward to bow to Qi Feng, “Master Qi, offended, our young master doesn’t know each other. Little Master Qi, here is my apology for you."

Qi Feng said indifferently: "Butler Zhou is being too polite. It's the young master Gui who misunderstood. The little girl's melon was given by me, not stolen."

Steward Zhou immediately said: "It was given, not stolen," and went to apologize to Xiuyao, "I'm really sorry, I'm sorry."

Seeing this, Xiuyao could only say that it was all right, but Qi Feng over there didn't seem to want to finish the calculation, and said to Steward Zhou: "I robbed someone else's melon and frightened the little girl. If I didn't see it, maybe I would have to suffer What a grievance."

Hearing what he said, Steward Zhou immediately nodded and bowed his head and said: "Yes, yes, it's all a small fault. I didn't remind the young master, which caused the young master to misunderstand." With one or two more, I handed it to Xiuyao, "Little girl, this is an apology, don't blame me!"

How could Xiuyao dare to ask for it, Qi Feng said lightly: "It's yours, just take it."

Xiuyao shook her head, "I don't want it, and please don't rely on others in the future. I'm fine anyway, so I don't need so much money." This money is not so easy to earn, and you won't get paid for nothing.
