Xianggong came from the mountains

Chapter 76

Xia Qinghe felt very sad when she saw this scene. She saw that several women were reluctant to eat, and secretly squeezed the cakes in their hands.

She smiled gently and said, "I am here in the village to be taken care of by everyone, and I will not leave here in a short time, so there are many things that need to trouble everyone, and I can't guarantee the amount of money. In short, I will not treat everyone badly." Saying this out of sincerity.

Aunt Liao smiled gently, and felt that Xia Qinghe was really a good girl. She hadn't talked to Xia Qinghe before and didn't have much emotion. Now that she talked to Xia Qinghe, she felt that Xia Qinghe was really a nice person: "Then tomorrow I will go directly to the mountains to dig kudzu roots. It's time to wash it and send it over."

Xia Qinghe looked at the other women in the yard, and said seriously: "It's good to wash the kudzu root and send it over directly. When you dig kudzu root in the woods, you should also pay attention to safety. Xiao Chu said that wild boars often appear in the woods during this season, it's best It’s better to be in groups of three or five.”

Aunt Chu also nodded in agreement: "This is true. Huzi also saw the footprints of wild boars in the woods. Everyone should be careful when entering the mountain. There are many kudzu vines in the woods. You can find them with a little effort. Chinese New Year is coming soon." Safety is still important.”

These words were very pertinent, and Xia Qinghe followed suit.

People in the village are relatively busy. Although there is nothing to do in this season, you always have to keep yourself busy to feel at ease.

Aunt Chu left with everyone, and the busy courtyard became quiet after a while.

Xiao Chu waited until those people had left before entering the courtyard. He walked up to Xia Qinghe and sat down. He looked at her with slightly raised lips and said, "Doesn't it feel good to be the big boss?"

This is making fun of her. Don't think she doesn't know. Xia Qinghe rolled her lips and glared at Xiao Chu: "Don't make fun of me. Isn't this forced to be helpless to drive ducks to the shelves? If you don't want to make money, how can you live? At least you can earn a few pennies a catty Money is not."

Xiao Chu took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Xia Qinghe.

Xia Qinghe took it in doubt and looked at Xiao Chu in surprise: "What is this?"

Xiao Chu smiled easily, raised his eyebrows and said, "Guess."

"I can't guess." Xia Qinghe said, and opened it.

There are two red hair ropes wrapped in the cloth bag, and two pink beaded flowers, which look extraordinarily beautiful.

She looked up at Xiao Chu in surprise, and asked with wide eyes in disbelief, "You gave this to me?"

Xiao Chu coughed dryly, concealing his nervousness: "Seeing that you have nothing on your head, and you look like a girl there, by the way, you bought it when you saw someone selling it." Dare to look at Xia Qinghe.

Xia Qinghe liked the bead flower very much, and couldn't help gesticulating on her hair: "But I'm too embarrassed to accept it, this is the first time I've received such a gift."

It felt so unexpected, after all, she didn't even think of dressing herself up, but that girl didn't like these accessories, especially the beaded flower workmanship was very fine.

Xiao Chu tidied up the leather jacket on his body and said, "Don't think too much, I just bought it as soon as I saw it. You have already planned how to do business?"

He was afraid that Xia Qinghe would ask strange questions, so he quickly changed the subject.

Xia Qinghe wrapped the pearl flower carefully, she was reluctant to wear the pearl flower now, and saved it for later when she went to the market.

She looked at Xiao Chu with a smile and thanked, "Thank you for giving me the gift. I have thought of a way. It is not realistic to dig kudzu by myself. Look at my hands."

She stretched out her two hands, seeing the blisters next to each other made Xiao Chu feel distressed for a while.

Xia Qinghe pouted a little helplessly: "I can't dig the kudzu root myself, and you know that the villagers will not believe me if they don't see Yinzi. I have to make achievements, but it takes too much time to make achievements. I can’t afford to delay, during this period of time the kudzu vines haven’t completely withered, so kudzu can be easily found, after a while, especially after snowing, kudzu can’t be found at all, what should I do then?”

"It makes sense." Xiao Chu listened carefully, hoping to help Xia Qinghe solve his problems.

Xia Qinghe held his face in both hands and propped his elbows on his knees, and said, "Ask everyone to dig and wash it for me, then I can ask someone to crush the kudzu root, wash it myself, and the cost of drying the starch by myself will be lower, so this Business can still be done.”

She made the starch herself, and the kudzu root starch is very heavy this season, which happens to be the golden time.

Xiao Chu didn't doubt this, but he was worried that Xia Qinghe was too tired.

"You still have to pay attention to rest. Although making money is important, I have something to leave in two days. I will give the boat to Da Huzi. If you want to go to the town and ask Da Huzi to take you off, I guess five I'll be back in six days." He used to leave the village at any time without any worries, but ever since he met Xia Qinghe, he was always worried that he would encounter trouble if he left Xia Qinghe.

I should have left a long time ago, but I have been hesitant, and I have been procrastinating until now.

Xia Qinghe was a little nervous, somehow she got used to living with Xiao Chu, and suddenly she was really not used to Xiao Chu leaving.

"Are you just leaving for five or six days? Be careful when you go out and come back early." She thought for a while and finally swallowed the other words she wanted to say.

Zhu Xiaochang was extremely excited. He practiced archery without feeling tired. When he came back, the sun had already set. Xia Qinghe originally only wanted to prepare simple meals, but when he thought that Xiao Chu would take five or six days to come back, he simply got busy and sat in the water tank. I caught a fish and made a pot of sauerkraut fish.

On the second day, many people from the village went into the mountain. Xia Qinghe and Zhu Xiaochang were not idle, and tidied up the firewood house. If Ge Gen came back, she planned to pile it in the firewood house, and the yard was also tidied up a little.

Gou Chunlan wandered around the village, and found that there were only a few old people left in the village to look after the house, and those who were a little bit stronger all went into the mountain.

She naturally also knew about Xia Qinghe's purchase of kudzu, but she thought that Xia Qinghe would not be successful, but now seeing that there was no one in the village, it was as if she had been slapped in the face. Yesterday she was still saying that no one in the village would dig kudzu. But it was empty.

Zhu Liuzheng felt that everything was not going well, and seeing Gou Chunlan standing in a daze outside the courtyard, she couldn't help shouting angrily: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and serve me."

Gou Chunlan was also in a bad mood, and went into the courtyard anxiously, closed the door angrily, and yelled at Zhu Liuzheng: "What's the use of you, my son was forced to leave the house, and I don't know if the big stone can be eaten when I go out. Wearing warm clothes, I don’t know if the injury on my body is healed.” Gou Chunlan began to cry while speaking.

　I can't stand it anymore. Although this chapter is a bit late, I have updated [-] words anyway. I am too tired today, so I won't write it for the time being. I guess I will be busy tomorrow. I will try my best to find time to write the update. Thank you all for your support. Tolerance and understanding, love you.
