The mulberry life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 27

Zhang De looked at him suspiciously: "Little brother has learned?"

"My late father was a hunter. He taught me the structure of some traps when I was a child. I have also pondered over the past few years, and I have some experience.

It should be able to help Uncle De. "Qin Chengyi pulled his uncle's shoulder to the side, and more weight fell on his shoulder.

Zhang De was a little drunk, and couldn't feel the relief on his shoulders for a while, and thanked the young boy with a smile.

After sending He Sheng home, Zhang De patted his dizzy head and staggered home in the dark.

Qin Chengyi followed all the way, and only turned back when Zhang De returned home safely.

Zhong Caixin helped Zhang De into the inner room, Zhang De snored as soon as he touched the bed, Zhong Caixin pinched his nose funny, but the people underneath did not respond, but were fast asleep.He washed his face with water and took off his straw sandals. His feet were covered with mud, and many fine lines were filled with dust. The color seemed to blend with the skin and bones.This honest man really makes people feel distressed. If you treat him a little better, your whole body will become stiff. Everyday, being too close to him can make him flinch for a few days.

How can a man be so shy?

The night was deep, and Nuan Bao was tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep.

Xiao Fu was awakened by her sister's turning over, and said blankly, "Sister, go to sleep. Let's play tomorrow."

Nuan Bao helped Xiao Fu's restless body, so he easily stiffened his neck, and he should cry out for pain tomorrow, "Got it, go to sleep."

After hearing this, Xiao Fu fell asleep peacefully, breathing slowly and slowly, and the calm and long rhythm was inexplicably moving.

The words "The world is stable, and the years are quiet" suddenly popped up in Nuan Bao's mind. I still remember the corners of the boy's stubborn mouth and straight and unyielding back in the evening. I'm not afraid, I even have a little desire to move forward, how much I want to touch those five fingers with sharp joints, is it as cold and threatening as his person?

She intuitively thinks that he can endure loneliness, wandering outside the lively crowd, hand in hand with her to watch the clouds and clouds, flowers bloom and fall.At that time, the years will be quiet and good, and we will grow old hand in hand.

However, looking at her small body now, did she think too much?I touched my face, there was no fever, but fortunately, I am not a nympho.

Alas... growing up is really a long process.

The night passed, and the dark clouds in the sky were dispersed by the golden light of the sun. The little man in the room yawned, his eyes were dim, and he fumbled for the position of the cloth shoes with his feet. After putting them on, he walked to the stove to cook breakfast.

After my uncle married my aunt, Nuanbao hadn't tried to get up early to make breakfast for a long time. She cracked two eggs and beat them well to make omelet pancakes, which would be served with salty porridge.

Nuanbao took out some firewood, and the porridge cooked over a slow fire was very fragrant, soft and glutinous.

"Dang...dang..." There was a knock on the door.

So early, who?Nuan Bao hurriedly ran to open the door. Outside the door, Qin Chengyi's hair was still covered with mist, and against the background of the mist, he looked even more hazy as a young man.

Qin Chengyi stayed at his uncle's house last night. Being used to getting up early, he didn't pay attention to the time. When he came to Zhang De's door early in the morning, the sudden knock on the door made him realize that something was wrong.

Nuan Bao looked at the young man outside the door who frowned slightly, looking annoyed and about to leave, and hurriedly said: "It's foggy outside, come in quickly."

Call Qin Chengyi to sit in the main room, "Why is brother Chengyi here?"

Qin Chengyi lowered his head and didn't look at Nuan Bao opposite, "Uncle De wants to set up a trap at the foot of the mountain, I'll try to help."

Nuan Bao's eyes lit up, "This method is really good! Brother Cheng Yi is really powerful. Last time I saw you hunting on the mountain so easily, I didn't expect that you could even set a trap."

Qin Chengyi still said indifferently: "It's too polite, I can do what I can."

Nuan Bao's cheerful mood suddenly faltered, did she really annoy him?It seemed like he had been like this since the last time we met.

The two were relatively silent until Zhang De woke up, had breakfast and went out again.

Nuan Bao tiptoed to look at the person walking away, but the person never looked back.

In the field, Qin Chengyi walked around the foot of the mountain to measure the length and width of the trap before starting work with Zhang De.

The trap should not be too close to the foot of the mountain, because the foot of the mountain is prone to landslides, and it is very troublesome to clean up the broken stones after falling into the trap. In addition, several warning signs should be erected at the foot of the mountain to prevent villagers from going up and down the mountain without paying attention to falling into the trap.

The trap was dug a full meter and a half deep and three meters wide, and a tunnel was laid winding around the growth of the wheat field. It was expected that wild boars and roe deer would no longer be able to jump over the trap to waste food.

In the morning, the two dug the pit, and at night Qin Chengyi worked on the mountain as a mechanism. After five or six days, the trap was finally ready.

In the past few days, the movement of the two men starting construction has scared the wild boar from going down the mountain. Everyone is looking forward to the arrival of the wild boar on the day after the completion of the project.

Because the field is in a remote place, the villagers didn't hear the wild boars coming at night, including Zhang De's family, who slept soundly because they didn't have to worry anymore.

When they went to the wheat field the next day, they found that all the grass and branches on the trap had disappeared. Zhang De was delighted. When he got closer, he saw that there were three bloody wild boars lying inside.

It turns out that the trap is not the most deadly part. Qin Chengyi put three chain mechanisms in the trap, one triggers two. When the beast falls, it will be held back. Will be stabbed open, and it won't be long before the beast will die from blood loss.

When Xiao Fu saw the bloody beast, he quickly shrank behind Nuan Bao in fright.It was also the first time Nuan Bao saw such cruelty, and covered her mouth to hold back her vomit.

All the women present stood aside with pale faces. Only the little uncle was very happy. The wild boars with such appearance could not be sold, but they could be eaten by themselves or sold in the village. Each of the three wild boars weighed about a hundred catties. , he called Yan Chengyi to put away the mechanism and lift up the wild boar together.

Three wild boars, one for each person, and the other is sold in the village.The summer harvest is approaching, and almost all households will eat meat, so pork must be a good seller at this time.

Qin Chengyi asked his uncle's cousins ​​to carry their own wild boar back, and he helped Zhang De to send the wild boar back to Zhang's small courtyard, and the other end was also sold in Zhang's small courtyard.

The villagers have long been shocked!The three wild boars could not be captured without dozens of people. Now that Zhang De and a young man were able to kill the three wild boars, how could it make people calm.

Regardless of the envy or jealousy of others, Zhang De happily invited a pig butcher to help butcher the pigs.

The pig killing scene was very lively. Although the wild boar had already died, there were many villagers who watched the excitement pointing at the wild boar.

The villagers seldom buy pork on weekdays, because in addition to slaughtering pigs during the New Year, they have to go to the market to buy pork. The pork in the market is more expensive, unlike the villagers who kill pigs themselves. All the people from the village came.
