Xianggong came from the mountains

Chapter 44
Xiao Chu became more and more interested in Xia Qinghe, such as making jelly, stir-frying liver and waist, knowing how to eat kudzu root, and knowing a lot of herbs.

Xia Qinghe seemed to know a little too much!
The more this happened, the more he wanted to solve these mysteries.

After Xia Qinghe cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, Zhu Xiaochang had a good time eating today, so he volunteered to wash the dishes. While washing the dishes, he turned his head and said to Xia Qinghe that he asked Xia Qinghe to cook this dish tomorrow, and Aunt Chu said that he could pick the onion as he wanted.

Xiao Chu drank another bowl of gruel, and then he was still satisfied.

He shook his head and smiled as he looked at Xia Qinghe who was sitting across from him warming up by the fire: "How do you girl know that this can be eaten like this?"

He threw a stick into it, and the flames blazed up.

Xia Qinghe gave Xiao Chu a blank look. These questions had already been thought about in her mind, and naturally she answered them fluently.

She stretched her waist and pretended to be tired, and said, "You just have to ask so many questions, will I be born to believe you?" After finishing speaking, she laughed.

Even Xiao Chu was a little uncertain at this moment, Xia Qinghe really looked like that, knowing that he couldn't ask anything, he also stood up and said: "It's getting late, I'll go back first , will you still enter the mountain tomorrow?"

Xia Qinghe shook her head resolutely. There was wild boar in the house that had to be guarded. Yuan's big mouth would definitely tell the villagers about the wild boar. How many people would come tomorrow? Pueraria also needs to be ground to make starch. She planned to do it the day after tomorrow Just bring kudzu jelly, and sweet potato jelly will be demonstrated on the spot.

Xiao Chu thumped his back. He was also exhausted from hunting wild boars today. If he hadn't prepared in advance, he might be injured today. This wild boar has grown into an adult, and the fighting power of an adult wild boar should not be underestimated.

He is very free and easy: "It happens that I will rest at home for a day tomorrow, and I have to punting the day after tomorrow. By the way, I remember that Mrs. Han's house used to have a lot of land. I will dig it out after I have a rest tomorrow, and I will buy some seeds to scatter in the ground the next day." , the womb cabbage you fried is delicious, I'm thinking about planting something else."

This frightened Xia Qinghe, Xiao Chu is such a free and easy person, she suddenly said that she wanted to grow vegetables, why did she feel a little... a little uncomfortable, is this ready to develop in all aspects?

But after thinking about it, this is also a good thing. There are not many vegetables to eat in the field. In fact, Mrs. Han and Zhu Dachang are very lazy. In addition to growing the staple food, the vegetables are so good that according to Zhu Xiaochang’s words, his family used to eat them all year round. All are wild vegetables.

This is also in line with her idea. She thinks that vegetables still need to be grown. She likes to eat vegetables. The villagers dig up wild vegetables that are more delicious. She doesn't have much time to dig wild vegetables, so she thinks about growing vegetables herself: " That's fine, you can have a good rest tomorrow, and I'll ask Xiaochang to bring you breakfast."

Xiao Chu waved his hand directly: "No need to give it away, I will come to you as soon as I wake up, if the villagers come to bother you, they will say that the wild boar is mine, and everything must be decided by me."

He was afraid that the villagers would cause trouble for Xia Qinghe.

Xia Qinghe's heart warmed, knowing Xiao Chu's intentions.

She closed the courtyard, deliberately propped a few wooden sticks behind the courtyard door, and threw a bundle of thorns that had not been untied at the door, and then went back to sleep with peace of mind.

Zhu Xiaochang was still immersed in the dinner, he went to bed cheerfully, and before going to bed, he worriedly told Xia Qinghe to cook for him tomorrow.

Lying on the bed, Xia Qinghe was also very excited. Today was like a dream. Xiao Chu actually hunted such a big wild boar back by himself, and even promised her to sell half of it, so that she would not worry about the food for the winter. When the time comes We must find a way to hide the food.

I was too tired during the day, and fell asleep drowsily. Early the next morning, I heard the noise of talking outside. It seemed that there were many people.

Zhu Xiaochang was yelling at those people to leave outside.

"There's nothing to see, isn't it just a wild boar, you all don't look at it and go back quickly."

Zhu Xiaochang was very irritable, and was woken up by these people early in the morning. He said in his heart that he could be as angry as he was, and these people were pestering him to buy wild pork, and they all wanted to exchange them with sweet potatoes!
How can there be such a good thing in the world? He is not stupid. Every household has sweet potatoes and they are worthless. Who would want to change meat so valuable.

Xia Qinghe folded the quilt and came out, only to see Zhu Xiaochang standing at the gate of the yard blocking the people outside, and among the crowd stood Yuan Shi.

When Yuan Shi saw Xia Qinghe came out, she waved at Xia Qinghe excitedly, and shouted: "Qinghe, come quickly, tell them quickly that there is a wild boar in your house, these people don't believe it! I just said that Xiao Chu is powerful, he can hunt a wild boar by himself."

She said angrily, very upset that these people didn't believe her, obviously what she said was true.

Xia Qinghe helped her forehead, feeling helpless, she knew that Yuan Shi had a big mouth, but she didn't expect Yuan Shi to be like this. In an instant, everyone in the village knew, what should she do.

"There is a wild boar, but that wild boar belongs to Xiao Chu. I heard what you said just now. If you want to exchange sweet potatoes for pork, you have to wait until Xiao Chu comes." She said perfunctorily, anyway, she didn't want to Dealing with these people is really difficult for people in the village to get along with.

Yang sneered, and said with dissatisfaction in her heart: "If you don't want to talk to us, just tell us directly, if Xiao Chu is worried, why don't you leave it in your home, you just look down on us, yes, we are useless to you What use value."

As soon as this sentence came out, many people looked at Xia Qinghe with hostility.

Xia Qinghe was one head and two older. Last time, she felt that this Yang family was not simple, and even Zhu Shuangjiang was not a simple person. Looking at it today, it is true. This Yang family clearly wanted to arouse everyone's hostility towards her.

She was also calm, the more she told herself not to mess around at this time.

She smiled gently, and said kindly to everyone: "I didn't mean that, otherwise, Xiao Chu was tired from hunting yesterday, and he will come here at noon today, so you can come and ask him, I really can't Make the decision, think about it, this wild boar is worth a lot of money, and Xiao Chu and I are just having dinner together, even if he trusts me, he can't just hand over the pig to me."

She looked at everyone seriously, with an extremely sincere attitude. She couldn't admit this matter, and she was not stupid. If she admitted, these people would definitely pester her directly.

Also, she really can't make the decision, even if Xiao Chu asked her to make the decision, she wouldn't dare.

This pig is the money to store food for the winter, who will eat it if it is replaced by sweet potatoes?The thought of sweet potatoes makes her want to throw up.
