A Story of a Little Village Girl Getting Rich

Chapter 22

It's not a house of blue bricks and tiles, so naturally it's not much higher.There are several large cabinets against the wall, the innermost one is tall, and the outer one is short, which should be for clothes and quilts.There is a big bamboo basket on the low cabinet.

This bamboo basket attracted Xiao Si's interest, this bamboo basket should not be used to hold clothes and shoes, the workmanship is rough, but it is very innovative.

Xiaosi really wanted to stand up and have a look, but he was unable to do so, and his legs and feet felt weak.Logically speaking, after so many days of rest, he should have recovered a little, so that he wouldn't be unable to use his strength at all.He watched his fist clenched and loosened, this hand is also boring.Supporting the table with his elbows, he tried to stand up by himself, but without much effort, he sat back on the stool.After trying several times, I was sweating profusely at last, so I had to give up.

Miao Xiaocao is cooking, Miao Da is adding firewood, and Xiaocao Niang is sitting at the dining table drinking tea. The family of three are discussing about going to uncle's house to give a birthday gift tomorrow.

What Miao Da meant was that he would go by himself. Uncle Xiaocao's house was still in the county town, and it would take a long time to go there, and he would have to get up at the first crowing.

What Xiaocao meant was that she was going, because her father had bad legs and feet, so he had to get up early after so many journeys, and it was too tiring.

What Xiaocao Niang meant was to let Miao Da and Xiaocao go together, to take care of each other, and to get up before dawn, so that the two of them could take care of each other.

In the end Miao Xiaocao got a little angry and said: "I don't care, anyway, if you don't believe what I say, you two have decided."

Seeing that the daughter was unhappy, the two of them had no choice but to regress.Daughters are their backbone.In the end, he said to let Miao Xiaocao go, but let Miao Da send her over Baimajian Mountain.

The matter was decided, and the family of three chatted about what happened in the village today.

"Father and mother, you say that this Cao Ahuang is really stupid. She doesn't want me to marry their family Dechang, and instead of helping Cai Qiaoyun, she even says things that make things worse. What is she doing? Does she not want me to marry?" go out?"

The little grass girl snorted and said, "These two are weasels wishing chickens New Year's greetings, uneasy and kind. But this Cao Ahuang, that's a mangy dog ​​with boils - wherever you go, it stinks, walk all the way Smelly all the way."

Miao Xiaocao bared her teeth and said, "Oh, mother, don't disgust me. I will feel disgusted when I see her after talking about it. Haha... But mother, you are really apt, that Cao Ahuang is really smelly, her What I said is not human anymore, hahaha..."

Seeing that his daughter is happy, Miao Da is also happy, but this Xiaocao's marriage is indeed a top priority. This time, he planned to go to the county town and ask his uncle if there is a suitable family to marry Xiaocao to the county town. The two of them The other stays in Miaojia Village and doesn't follow Xiaocao to her husband's house, so maybe Xiaocao still has a good home.If you can't go tomorrow, you can only wait for the spring to go.

When Miao Xiaocao brought food to Xiaosi, he was resting his head with his eyes closed.

"Hey, haven't you slept enough yet? Still sleepy?"

Xiao Si opened his eyes the first time Miao Xiaocao entered the door, looked at her with a smile and said, "I really have nothing to do."

"Well, that's right, let's eat." Miao Xiaocao put the rice on the table, and handed the chopsticks to him.

"Thank you." Xiaosi's white teeth are really not ordinary white.

After Xiaosi ate, Xiaocao also went back to the kitchen, and the family of three started eating.

"Father, take out the peeled broad beans at home to dry tomorrow, and someday I will make broad bean paste."

"En good. This broad bean paste is not spicy, so your mother can eat a little." Miao Da nodded.

"Well, wait another half a month for the winter vegetables, and then pickle them in the sun in the middle of the twelfth lunar month. If they are pickled early, they will become sour. This year, there are many people, and I am thinking about whether I should plant this vegetable on another field and cover it with straw. There will be vegetables to eat this winter." Miao Xiaocao said while eating.

As soon as she spoke, Miao Da and Xiao Cao Niang fell silent.

Seeing the silence of her parents, she realized that she seemed to want to keep Xiao Si behind.This changed her original intention.At that time, I was still worried that the food at home would be gone, and it was said that because multiple people needed multiple dishes!
"Father and mother, don't get me wrong. I mean, no matter how long he stays in my house, this medicine is a precautionary measure. In case he doesn't recover, he wants to spend the New Year at my house. If we don't grow vegetables now, it won't be enough for him to eat by then. Is it?" Xiaocao's face became hot.

Miao Da smiled knowingly, nodded and said: "Enen, yes, save people to the end, let's talk about it after the fourth young master is fully recovered. I will help him today, but he has no strength at all. Just like him , At least ten days and a half months to recuperate, after a while, it will snow, and it will be freezing cold, and he doesn't remember where his home is, so he can't rest assured that he will leave alone. "Miao Da paused, thought for a while and said: "But I suspect that there may be some abnormality in his body. If he simply fell into the river and drifted for a few days, he would not lose his strength. I will help him today. He couldn't exert himself at all."

"Strange?" Miao Xiaocao didn't feel anything.

"Well, this young man doesn't have a skin injury, he may have suffered an internal injury. The internal injury may be more serious, causing him to be weak all over." Miao Dating was worried.

Miao Xiaocao pursed her lips and said, "There's no other way, I can only wait for him to recover before going to the town or county to find someone to look at."

The family of three fell into silence again.

After eating, give Xiao Si Duan water to wash his face and feet.

Xiaosi looked at the girl who was squatting in front of her and rolled up her trousers, she didn't seem to have any sense of intimacy between a man and a woman, and it didn't feel inconvenient to avoid seeing him washing his feet barefoot.

"I'll get up early tomorrow morning and go to the county town to give my uncle's birthday present. Tomorrow my parents will be at home, so don't go out to bask in the sun. When it's cold, my dad's legs will hurt. He's sure to support you. It will exacerbate the leg pain. When I come back, I will help you out." Miao Xiaocao explained.

"Good. I didn't know that Uncle's leg hurts. This morning, he insisted that I go to bask in the sun, saying that being bored in the house would not be good for my recovery." Xiao Si looked at Miao Xiaocao.

Miao Xiaocao sat on the low stool next to him and said, "Well, I know, my father is just too kind. He always endures. Actually, if he has money, my father's leg may be cured."

Xiao Siyi was excited when he heard it: "What's wrong with uncle's legs?"

"In my words, it's called rheumatism, and in my father's, it's called old cold legs. If there is some doctor with good medical skills, he can find out the real cause, and then he can be cured with medicine."

Xiao Si nodded, and suddenly used his right hand to press the meridians of his left hand.

"Why? You also want to study medicine?" Miao Xiaocao stood up indifferently, and opened the bamboo basket on the low cabinet.

Xiao Si is pressing his meridian very seriously, with shock and doubt in his eyes, but Miao Xiaocao, who is facing away from him, cannot see it.When Miao Xiaocao turned around, Xiao Si had already put down her hands and was looking at Miao Xiaocao.
