Chapter 237 The Tiger Is Here
He didn't say much, and went back after fetching water. As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw two little girls, Ye Weilan and Song Jiayin, busy in front of the stove, actually boiling medicine.

"Brother Xihua, why did you get up so early?" Ye Weilan greeted him very familiarly, but Song Jiayin lowered her head aside, she was a little older, and she was too embarrassed to talk to the boy.

"I'm used to it." Du Xihua smiled honestly, took the bucket, poured the water into the kitchen water tank, and asked curiously. "Miss, why do you boil such a big pot of medicine? Who wants to drink it?"

Ye Weilan explained calmly, "A horse in the stable was injured, and I used this medicine to wash the horse's wound."

"Ah..." Du Xihua hurriedly said. "Miss, you have a noble status, how can you do this kind of rough work? Let me do the work."

"No, this horse has a fierce temper and loves to kick people. You are still a stranger to it now, so you better be careful. After a few days, when you are familiar with it, I will ask you to help." Ye Weilan politely declined Acknowledging his kindness, he said again. "But there is still a horse and a cow in the stable. You can feed them grass. You just need to remember to stay away from the horse with horns on its head."

This is Ye Weilan's little selfishness. She knows that animals like horses are the most humane, and Xiao Hei's extraordinary appearance, and what the horse dealer and Shen Luo said that day, let her know that Xiao Hei is a BMW. So she wants to develop a relationship with Xiao Hei, maybe when Xiao Hei gets to know her well, he will let her ride.

She wants to live a new life, she doesn't want to be that kind of delicate young lady anymore, she wants to live a more comfortable life.It would be perfect if she could learn some martial arts with her uncle.

She boiled the Jinchuang potion and put it in an earthen jar. She used a large wooden basin, filled it with cold water that Du Xihua had just pumped from the well, and put the earthen pot in it to cool the medicinal juice inside.

Du Xihua picked up a few loads of water, filled the water tank at home, and went out to dig wild vegetables with a basket on his shoulders. He dug the wild vegetables, chopped them up, and took them to the chicken coop in the backyard to feed the chickens.

After all these jobs were done, others got up one after another.

After Aunt Du got up, she went to the kitchen to make breakfast. When Li Feng got up, she had almost finished breakfast.

Li Feng nodded secretly in her heart, finding a family of diligent servants is better than finding a family of lazy people, she didn't say anything, she took the copper pot on the small coal stove, mixed a pot of warm water, went to serve You Ran and got up up.

Ye Weilan washed the wound on Xiao Hei's body, and was very satisfied when she saw that the wound had scabbed over, there was no suppuration, and there was no open wound.

"Xiao Hei, your injury is almost healed, are you happy?" She was talking to Xiao Hei while applying medicine to it.

Xiao Hei sprayed white air from his nostrils, and unhappily stretched out his mouth to bite the horse's reins tied to the horse post, he didn't like being tied up.

Ye Weilan patted it on the head angrily, "Don't bite, I know you like meat buns, so it's not okay to make you meat buns at noon."

Xiao Hei looked at her with his head tilted, as if he was studying whether what she said was true.

"It's for your own good that you are tied up now. You have medicine on your body, so you can't lie on the ground. When your injury heals, you won't be tied up anymore." Ye Weilan discussed with it.

Aunt Du came over and said with a smile, "Miss, it's time for breakfast."

"Ms. Du, go and eat yours yourself. I'll eat it in a while." These days, she got up so early every day to take care of this black-horned unicorn. She felt that this horse was like a wayward child. It only takes a good coaxing.

Aunt Du had no choice but to ignore her and go to the kitchen to have breakfast by herself.

Ye Weilan gave Xiao Hei medicine, coaxed it to talk for a while, and then went to the kitchen to fetch water, wash his face and hands, went back to the embroidery room, changed his clothes, and then went to eat breakfast.

After eating breakfast, Ye Weilan greeted her mother, saying that she would go to the mountain to see Shen Luo, Su Youran naturally agreed, and told her to bring more food.

Ye Weilan took a few steamed buns, and thought that her uncle had a stove, so she brought a small bag of millet, planning to cook some millet porridge for her uncle if she had a chance, and it would be better than soaking in wine every day. She put all the things in a bamboo basket. In the basket, let Du Xihua hold his arm, and accompanied him into Yuluo Mountain again.

In the forest at the foot of Yuluo Mountain, because people often come to chop firewood, dig wild vegetables, and pick mushrooms, there are not many wild animals, especially ferocious ones.Of course, according to Ye Weilan's guess, the reason for the lack of wild animals has something to do with the tiger raised by her uncle.But she hasn't had the chance to see the tiger yet, and she is full of curiosity about the tiger.

She is a person who has a strong love for animals. She was like this in her previous life. In this life, although she has become ruthless, it is for people, not for animals.

Yesterday, the pannier that Ye Weilan put at the door was gone, obviously someone took it away.

Ye Weilan was overjoyed, raised her hand and knocked on the door, the door was not bolted at all, she opened it with a light touch, but she didn't go in immediately, but raised her voice: "Uncle, let me see You, I brought you some food and put it at the door, come out and take it in, otherwise, you will feed the ants."

After finishing speaking, she asked Du Xihua to put the bamboo basket on the ground, and then turned around to leave. Unexpectedly, at this moment, she suddenly smelled a pungent fishy smell, and only heard Du Xihua beside her screamed "ah!" , "Old... tiger..."

She was terrified by these two words. Although she had never seen a tiger before, she knew that the tiger was the king of beasts in the mountains. It was extremely powerful. Even a good hunter could easily be killed by the tiger's blood Under the big mouth of the basin.

So when she heard the word "tiger", her feet immediately softened.

Following Du Xihua's voice, a tiger with black and white stripes all over its body jumped out of the forest, just like the tiger she had seen in the book, and this tiger had a pheasant in its mouth.

Without further ado, Du Xihua stood in front of her, shaking his legs, and said in a trembling voice: "I said there is a tiger here, and you just want to come...Miss, I...I'll stop it, you you you...you run away , as long as you help me take care of my mother and younger siblings."

How could Ye Weilan let him be eaten by a tiger instead?It was her intention to enter the mountain. If Du Xihua was eaten by a tiger because of this, she felt that she would have no face at all to go home and see Du Xihua's mother.

So she couldn't help opening her mouth and screaming, "Uncle, help me..."

But I saw the tiger slowly swaying over, lowered its head, threw the pheasant to the ground, and then glanced at her and Du Xihua contemptuously, yes, with contemptuous eyes, a tiger, with contemptuous eyes Glancing at the two humans, he turned and left without even bothering to yell.

It recently made a girlfriend in the mountains, she is very pretty, and it is going on a date with her girlfriend, so it has no time to deal with these annoying humans.

Du Xihua was so frightened that his whole body seemed to be fished out of the water. Seeing the tiger leave, he sat down on the ground like a collapse, and murmured: "I was scared to death..."

Ye Weilan was also terribly frightened, and couldn't figure out what the tiger was thinking. At this moment, she heard the door of the room behind her slam open, followed by an unhappy voice, "It's so noisy!"

She turned her head suddenly, and saw the downcast man standing at the door with a gloomy face, his tattered clothes were still on his body, and he was reeking of alcohol.

"Uncle..." She couldn't help being aggrieved, but she saw him come out suddenly, walking past her with some staggering steps, walking towards the pheasant left by the tiger. The pheasant picked it up from the ground, then walked back with a blank expression, went straight into the house, and closed the door.

Only then did Ye Weilan understand what that tiger... seemed to be giving him game, she thought to herself, that tiger was really tamed by him?Otherwise, how would he know to give him game?No wonder he drank like a drunk cat, and was able to take wild game to the restaurant every day to exchange money for wine. It turned out that this tiger was helping him hunt.

She suddenly realized that when Shen Luo entered, she didn't seem to have locked the door from the inside, so she walked to the door and pushed it open carefully.

There was a stench unique to beasts in the house, a sour smell that would only come from people who hadn't bathed for a long time, and the smell of wine intertwined, as bad as it could be.

She thought for a while, picked up the bamboo basket that Du Xihua had just put on the ground, tried her best to adjust her breathing to be natural, walked into the room, and saw the dusty stove first, she didn't know the stove It's been a while since I've used it, and there are still spider webs in the corner.

The pheasant was thrown on the stove, and next to the stove was the basket she sent yesterday. Everything else in the basket was there, but the wine gourd containing the green bamboo leaves was missing.

She walked into the inner room with a bamboo basket on her shoulders, and saw Shen Luo lying on the yellow mud slab fire kang, the straw reed mat was covered with thick dust, the pillow had lost its color, beside the pillow was an empty The dropped wine jar, the words "Zhuyeqing" written on the red paper on the jar are still clear.

The two wine gourds were also casually thrown aside, the lids were not closed, but all the wine inside was gone.

There is a pile of straw on the ground, which looks like a tiger's nest, and there is a pile of chicken bones beside it.

It was a house without a mistress, as if without a mistress it would never be a home.

"Uncle..." She said timidly, and put the bamboo basket in her hand on the kang. "I brought you something to eat."

She waited for a long time, but she didn't wait for the down-and-out man to speak to her, so she said again: "I put the things here, if you are hungry, eat some, and I will come to see you tomorrow."

As she said that, she turned to leave, but the downcast man sat up suddenly, and he was not polite to her, he reached out and took the bamboo basket, then searched inside, and finally frowned, staring at her displeasedly, "Why no wine?"
