Fish Leaping Farm Gate

Chapter 83
Just after the first ten days of October, several female rabbits began to give birth to babies. Du Xiaoyu moved the cages to the house early because she was afraid that they would be cold in winter, but the smell was really strong, so she wanted to wait for Du Xian to be free Put up a shed in the backyard.

The number of animals that can really be raised is astonishing. There must be a special place, and it must be ventilated and warm.

Du Xiaoyu looked out of the window. In fact, their house should also be renovated and the yard should be extended back and forth. Otherwise, several guests would have to sleep in one room, which would be very troublesome.

She fed some vegetable leaves to the mother rabbit, and now four of them have given birth. There are a total of 27 baby rabbits. If the other one is added, it is estimated that there will be more than [-] rabbits. It must be spectacular to put together.

The red and fleshy little bunnies are extremely cute when they are huddled together, but unfortunately their fate may be miserable when they grow up.

Du Xiaoyu shook her head and went out of the house. She tried not to have any feelings for these rabbits. After all, she raised one in her previous life. It was very precious. How could she kill and eat it?But now the angle is different, and the approach is naturally different.

"Little fish, come here, it's just right." Du Xian waved to her, he obviously just came back from the field, holding something in his hand, looking a bit worried.

Du Xiaoyu took a look, "Is it a letter?"

"Yeah, the handwriting is too messy, and it gave me a headache." Du Xian handed the letter to her, "The boss of the Chang family finally came back from Nandong Village, and your uncle asked him to bring it here, you go Miss you to your mother."

She has no impression of Zhao's brothers and sisters at all, but she is very curious about the letter, so she quickly took it to have a look, but immediately wanted to throw it away.

What word is this!
Like earthworms not only saying that it is difficult to identify, but also unable to understand the words, Du Xiaoyu ran in and shouted, "Mother, uncle has a letter!"

Upon hearing the sound, Mrs. Zhao ran out with a look of surprise, "What's written on it?"

"I don't know, mother, take a look, is this written by uncle?" Du Xiaoyu was about to vomit blood, why didn't he ask someone to write it for him?

Mrs. Zhao took it over and said happily, "Your uncle has become a grandfather! Please let us go and play."

Du Xiaoyu's eyes widened, "Mom, do you understand?"

Zhao said with a smile, "Your uncle has been writing like this since he was a child. He was scolded several times by your grandmother for this matter, and then he gave up. Look, it's still like this after all these years. Fortunately, I can see it." She Click on the letter, "The house has been refurbished, and it is said that the house is bigger now, with several rooms."

Du Xian also heard it, and said with a smile, "It's getting better and better."

"Yeah, we're all doing well. I used to be afraid of dragging my elder brother and younger sister down, so I didn't have much contact with them," Zhao said with emotion. "It's better now. My elder brother also knows that Wen Yuan has been admitted as a scholar," she said. After a pause, "It makes me really want to go back and have a look."

"Then take the time to go back. It's your hometown, and you haven't been there for several years." Du Xian said, "I will take you there at that time, and you can stay for a while longer. I'm very happy." It will take three or four days to go there, and there are several villages away, so Du Xian is not worried about his wife going alone.

"Little sister's children are still young." Mrs. Zhao nodded with a smile, "That's fine, we'll talk about it after the Chinese New Year."

Finally, they still have relatives to visit, and Du Xiaoyu is also in a good mood, because it is impossible to have too much contact with her grandmother, and for a while, she fantasizes about following Mrs. Zhao to her uncle's house, where there is also her aunt's house. Many, it must be lively!

After she came out, she went to the flower garden to look at it again. It was winter and the flowers were withered, and the chrysanthemums dug from the mountains had already withered. She wanted to get some wintersweet flowers, but they were all tall trees, and she could handle them. If you don't come, you can only wait for the spring to bloom and then go to the mountain to get some branches to try cutting.

There was the sound of pancakes in the kitchen at this moment, and there was still a smell of meat.

"Father, bring a food box and bring it to Brother Zhong later." It was Mrs. Zhao who spoke.

It's strange, Du Xiaoyu ran into the house and asked curiously, "Will Daddy go to Uncle Zhong's place?"

"Yeah, Sister Qin told me that Uncle Zhong twisted his back and couldn't help us recently. I thought he said that his wife took the baby to her mother's house, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't even have a cook. How pitiful you are for calling him a sick man in this winter." Mrs. Zhao turned over the meat pie, and the butterflies underneath were sizzling.

Zhong Daquan is a competent farm laborer, and he never slackens in doing things. Du Xiaoyu also likes him from the bottom of his heart, and hurriedly said, "I'll go with Dad!"

"It's sensible, you should go." Zhao said angrily, "Looking at your cold melon patch, I don't know how many times I asked him to pour fat and water, and asked your father to carry two more skewers of bacon. He just cooked gruel. There is someone for dinner."

"My mother's bacon is better than medicine for preservation. Uncle Quan can get out of bed after eating it." Du Xiaoyu giggled.

Mrs. Zhao rolled her eyes at her boss, "Don't you coax me to marinate more meat, I really can't get enough of it."

"Of course, I'm tired of eating what mother can do."

"Honey is on the girl's mouth," Du Xian smiled outside the door, while he came in to get the food box and put the meat pies in it, which was a big plate.

"I'm going to get the bacon." Du Xiaoyu ran out the door, moved a chair and stood on it, just enough to hang the bacon hanging under the eaves, he couldn't help but feel happy, but he has grown a lot taller.

The father and daughter took their things and went out.

Zhong Daquan was lying on the bed, and the doctor was giving him an injection. When he saw Du Xian and his daughter entering the door, he was about to get up.

"Don't move, the doctor will blame us for sticking it crooked." Du Xian hurriedly stopped, put the food box on the table and said, "It's the pancake baked by Xiaoyu's mother, you usually like to eat it, it's homemade Bacon."

"How embarrassing." Zhong Daquan declined.

"I'm sorry, you've worked so hard these days, and all the hard work is done by yourself, but we feel sorry for it. You see, even if it's Xiaoyu's acre of land, you've done your best. I'm afraid we won't find you in this village again." OK."

Zhong Daquan blushed because of the praise, "It's what it should be, and you also gave the money."

Du Xiaoyu said with a smile, "Uncle Quan, don't be modest, any farmhand doesn't want money, but you are the best and most conscientious among the farmhands who want money." Seeing that the doctor had already inserted the needle, he brought the pancake, I went to the kitchen to find hot water again, "The pancakes will be cold after putting them in, Uncle Quan, eat them while they are hot."

Over there, Du Xian asked the doctor about the condition, but it was not serious, and he could recover after four or five days of rest.

Du Xian thanked the doctor, seeing him also staring at the pancakes, he smiled and said, "The doctor must be hungry too, Xiaoyu, hurry up and give the doctor some to eat."

The doctor praised Zhong Daquan after eating, chatted with them for a while, and then they all left. Before leaving, Du Xian settled Zhong Daquan's wages and gave him dozens of extra coins.

After Du Xiaoyu went out, she asked softly, "Is there enough money around me?" There should not be much savings after buying a few acres of land, and her mother refused to ask for Lin Song's money.

"That's enough," Du Xian said with a smile, "Wen Yuan will have four taels of silver in the Chinese New Year, and their academy will distribute it. Last time I came back, I told me that Huang Hua also has some money." He became more and more happy, "This Together, the two children earn as much as we grow these lands, and it’s not hard work, so it’s good to learn something.”

Du Xiaoyu also laughed, of course, those who farm the land are always the most miserable and poor, unless they are big landlords, that's why it is said that knowledge can change one's destiny.

After walking for a while, the doctor pointed to the west, "I still have to go to another house, so let's go first."

"Hey, isn't that in the same direction as our house?" Du Xiaoyu gossiped, "Doctor, whose house are you going to?"

"The Zhou family," said the doctor.

It seems that Zhou's family is the only one on their side. Du Xiaoyu immediately asked, "Is it Mrs. Hong's family? Who is sick in their family?"

Seeing that she knew her, the doctor sighed and was very troubled, "It's the eldest daughter of their family. I don't know what happened. She keeps twisting her leg. I don't want to treat it anymore. This Mrs. Hong is so overbearing, she quarrels every day and every day, saying that I fixed it! You said this matter, this year is really bad luck! Since you two know each other, next time I will help persuade you." Said He waved his hands and went forward.

It turned out that Zhou Daya was injured, Du Xiaoyu suddenly realized, no wonder he didn't come to harass her these days, but there was no Zhou Daya, and there was Bai Lianhua, so he came to her to practice calligraphy every few days.

Practice your head!Du Xiaoyu gets angry when she thinks about it, but she can't find the fault of Bai Lianhua, she really concentrates on practicing calligraphy every time, even if she meets Du Wenyuan, she doesn't do anything out of the ordinary, anyway, Zhao Shi is treating her more and more.

"Father, what do you think of Sister Lianhua?" She suddenly wanted to test Du Xian.

Du Xian was baffled by her, "That girl from the Bai family?"

"Yeah, dad, do you think it's okay?"

"Okay, there's nothing wrong with it, she looks smart, and she's also polite to people."

Du Xiaoyu stopped talking, it seemed that Du Xian was quite satisfied with her.

When the two returned home, she found some food and put it in her pocket and ran to Mrs. Zhao to ask for instructions, "Mother, I want to go and see Erya, I haven't seen her for a long time, her eldest sister has sprained her leg now, Erya must be very miserable Yes." She was a little apprehensive, afraid of not agreeing.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhao glanced at her and agreed, but told her not to stay too long.

Du Xiaoyu responded loudly and ran out the door.

As expected, Tuesday Ya was really immersed in a lot of housework. There was a large basin of dirty clothes in the yard, several bundles of firewood to be chopped, and some vegetables to be picked. Seeing Du Xiaoyu, she shouted in surprise. Said, "Small, Miss Xiaoyu."

"Who's here?" Mrs. Hong asked in the room.

Du Xiaoyu hurriedly stepped forward and called her "auntie" respectfully. If she offended Mrs. Hong, she would never see Tuesday again, so her attitude has always been very good.

"Oh, it's Xiaoyu." Mrs. Hong said indifferently, "Come and see our erya?"

"That's right." Du Xiaoyu couldn't let Zhou Ya not work, so he dragged a stool over and sat down to pick up vegetables, and said, "Er Ya, I'll help you do it together."

Mrs. Hong thought she was going to take her daughter out to play, but seeing how well-behaved she was, she didn't stop them from talking and went into the house by herself.
