farmer's husband

Chapter 24
Chun Zhi ran out of the house, but found that Chai Dong was no longer outside.

Could it be, this little guy was hurt by a few words of his own, and now he has found a place to wipe his tears quietly, right?Chunzhi looked left and right, thinking quietly.

Well, actually thinking about it, what I just said seems a little too harsh.Chai Dong was spoiled by his mother since he was a child, and he didn't dare to say a single harsh word. This is probably the first time he has been scolded like this?
At first, she thought that Chai Dong would jump up and hit her in anger when she heard her say that, but who knew he didn't, he just became dazed, and even asked her several questions, and then became even more listless.

It seems that this child is not bad-hearted, but just spoiled by Mrs. Wang.

Thinking of Chai Dong's pitiful appearance like a puppy, Chun Zhi looked left and right, but she still didn't see Chai Dong's figure, instead she saw Wang San's daughter-in-law approaching from the front.

When the two met each other, they were a little embarrassed.

But after a pause, Chun Zhi smiled at her: "Sister-in-law, good morning! Are you going to fetch water?"

"Isn't it?" Wang San's daughter-in-law forced a smile, "What about you? What are you going to do?"

"Look for my man." Chun Zhi said helplessly, "I had a few words with him just now, but he ran out in anger, so I hurried out to look for him. If I don't find him back, I don't have to go in today." The house is closed, my mother-in-law will definitely beat me to death!"

She quietly winked at her side.

Wang San's daughter-in-law pricked up her ears, and Wang was still cursing in the room!She couldn't help but chuckle.

"Then go find it quickly! Boy Dong doesn't go out much. I remember that he used to like to go to the small river at the head of the village. Maybe he went there this time as well."

"Really? Thank you, I'll go and have a look!" Chun Zhi nodded quickly.Before leaving, she thanked Wang San's wife again, "Thank you for coming to help in time last night, otherwise our family..."

"No thanks, no thanks! They are all from the folks in the village, what are you doing with these polite words?" Wang San's daughter-in-law hurriedly waved her hand.

Chunzhi smiled again. "My mother-in-law was wrong for what I did to your family before, but I have already committed all the mistakes, and now I can only admit her mistakes to you on her behalf. Anyway, I will look at her in the future and stop her from acting like that again .”

"Really? That's really great!" Wang San's daughter-in-law nodded happily.

Even if Chun Zhi couldn't do what he said, she was already very satisfied with her current attitude.

Chun Zhi nodded quickly, and was about to turn around to look for Chai Dong, but Wang San's wife stopped her again.

"That... Don't take what Wang Laojiu and his family said, you are not a cat demon, I believe you." She whispered to Chun Zhi.

Chunzhi was stunned for a moment, and immediately a happy smile appeared on his face. "Third sister-in-law, thank you."

"You're welcome, I told you that you're a good girl." Wang San's wife waved her hand, "Go and find Boy Dong! He's his mother's darling. If something happens to him, you'll be in trouble." gone."

is not that right?Today she dared to scold Chai Dong so boldly, Chun Zhi felt that she really had the guts to think about it now.

However, now that the words have been spoken, she does not regret it.It's enough for her to experience something like today, and she doesn't want to fall into that situation again next time!

It's just that it's a very cold day, and now standing outside for a while, I feel the cold wind blowing on her body, making her shiver all over.Think about Chai Dong's small size again, he must be more cold, right?I have to find him quickly and bring him back.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly said goodbye to Wang San's wife, and headed towards the entrance of the village.

Following the guidance of Wang San's wife, she walked to the entrance of the village, and then walked along the small river outside the village for a while, and sure enough, she saw a small figure squatting there in a ball.

He was originally thin and small, but now standing in a white snow field, he was still huddled up, making him even more pitifully small.Just like a little milk dog shivering in the cold wind, not to mention how painful it is.

As Chun Zhi watched, her heart softened into a puddle of water.

Slowing down her pace, she walked over quietly, only to find that the man was not curled up and crying, but was digging something on the ground with a small stick.The snow in front of him has been scraped off a small piece, and even the clods of soil underneath have been pulled up, and the snow has been dyed yellow by the side.

"found it!"

Suddenly he heard a low cry of joy, Chai Dong was holding a weed in his hand, his face was full of joy.

"What is this?" Chun Zhi asked softly.

Chai Dong was taken aback, and turned around to find that she was the one who relaxed.

But immediately, his face sank and his mouth pursed again, then he turned his head and continued digging on the ground with his head lowered.

Chun Zhi was a little embarrassed.

She knelt down next to Chai Dong, and took the initiative to talk to him cheekily: "I know what I said just now was a bit harsh, but you are not so useless. At least you and your mother can stay in the village safely. I have lived for so many years, relying solely on my mother's ability is not enough, and your help is indispensable here. It's just that you are so old, and my mother is not young, and you still let her make noise outside like this, which is not good. And you know what kind of temperament she is, but you let her go out and mess around. I know you want to make her suffer a little bit first, learn a lesson from it, and then she will be honest and dare not do that again. The reason is That's the reason, but that's not how it works! She's your mother, how can you teach her like you teach your son? Can't you use a more tactful way? "

"Anyway, in your eyes, I am an unfaithful, unfilial, unkind bastard." Chai Dong said quietly.

Chunzhi choked.

"Actually, it's not so serious." She smiled dryly.

Chai Dong snorted coldly, then dug out another weed from the snow, then changed the place and continued digging snow.

Chun Zhi asked him in a low voice: "What are you looking for? Do you want my help?"

"No, I got it here to honor my mother, and no one else needs to intervene." Chai Dong said coldly.

Harue shyly withdrew his hand.

She stood aside and watched as Chai Dong dug up several weeds, and she recognized one of them—"Isn't this the root of the daylily? Why are you digging this?"

Chai Dong glanced at her. "The yellow flower has the effect of reducing swelling and relieving pain, but now it's cold and there is no yellow flower, so we can only dig up its rhizome. These things are also effective, but not as good as the yellow flower."

"So there is such a saying!" Chun Zhi hurriedly asked again, "Is this written in a book?"

Chai Dong nodded.

It turns out that there are still these in the book!Harue's eyes became bright. "Sir, you are amazing!"

Chai Dong twitched the corner of his mouth. "What's so good about me? I couldn't help my mother before, and now I'm just learning and using the things in the book. I actually didn't do any of my own things."

"No! If you can learn and use the things in the book, then you are already very powerful! And it's a cold day, and you even come out to help mother dig herbs. Mother knows how happy she is!" Chun Zhi smiled. speak.

Chai Dong glanced at her again. "Are you trying to comfort me on purpose?"

This man is really difficult to serve.

Chun Zhi let out a light breath: "Your heart is actually good, but you have been thinking about things from your own point of view for so long, and you have never considered other people's points of view, that's why you made such a mistake. But now you and I By the way, haven't you already reacted? So, you are still very smart. "

"Hmph, what's the use of being smart? In this village, being smart is not as useful as strength!" Chai Dong hummed in a low voice.

This narrow-minded guy actually still remembers what she said to provoke him on purpose.And he turned it around to her!
However, it's good to remember, it means that he has listened to her words, so he can still have some hope for this person!

Thinking about it, Chun Zhi hurriedly helped him collect the herbs that had been dug up.

Chai Dong saw it, and finally didn't refuse this time.

After digging a stick of incense along the small embankment, Chai Dong had already dug up a handful of weeds.He looked back at the number before standing up. "about there."

Chunzhi took the weeds and went to the river to wash them off.

It snowed heavily last night and the river was frozen over.Fortunately, the ice was not thick, so when I picked up a small stone and threw it up, I heard a crash, and a hole was smashed out of the ice.Immediately after a few creaks, there were several cracks on the ice around the hole.

As soon as Chunzhi was good at breaking it off, a big piece came off, and a bare piece of water immediately appeared on the river surface.

Chun Zhi was about to bend over to wash when Chai Dong came over. "Let me do it!"

"Let's forget it! The river is cold, and your hands are thin and tender. You must not be able to hold them. Besides, you are really going to be frozen. When you go back, your mother will definitely say me again! You have to be careful to give it to me." It's good for her to find herbs, let me do other things!" Chunzhi said angrily.

Chai Dong was startled, so he stopped insisting.

Chunzhi carefully washed all the sludge on the herbs in the water.As a result, just after washing, I heard a click, and it turned out that a fish jumped out of the hole!
The fish landed on the ice, still jumping non-stop, seeing that the ice layer under it was about to break.

Both Chunzhi and Chaidong's eyes began to shine.

"Find a branch and come here quickly!" Chunzhi shouted hastily.

Chai Dong also quickly turned around and picked up a long dead branch and handed it over.Chun Zhi took over the branch, and carefully picked up the crucian carp.When she was close to her hand, she went straight to it and caught the fish in her hand.

"Look, wild crucian carp! Today we have fish soup!" Holding the fish high, Chun Zhi announced to him happily.

Chai Dong's face was also shining with excitement.

"Give it to me!" He held out his hand, and Chun Zhi handed it to him.

Chai Dong held the fish carefully, and quickly used a branch to put it on, then frowned: "It's still a little short."

Crucian carp is not big in the first place, and it can't eat anything in the river in winter, so it is thinner than usual.It's just such a small strip now, I'm afraid it's not enough for a person to stick between his teeth.

Chunzhi also noticed it—just such a fish, with Wang's temperament, she must give it all to her precious son.But she worked so hard, she didn't plan to stare at others eating soup after returning home!
But she can't fight Wang Shi, so she can only...

"Let's catch some more!" she said.

Chai Dong's eyes sparkled again. "Okay!" He nodded, but immediately frowned again, "But...how to catch?"

"Hey, didn't this book teach you?" Chun Zhi asked curiously.

Chai Dong shook his head.

Chun Zhi immediately raised his eyebrows proudly. "My father taught me!"
