Fields of Gold

Liu Hu nodded: “After what you said, it's true! There was also corn, which she asked the county king for seeds, and dared to issue a military warrant. Fortunately, corn can be picked before the locust catastrophe. Otherwise, it's really hanging! Your little niece is smart and brave. If she were a boy, she'd do something! ”

Yu Caifeng glanced at him. “What's wrong with the girl? Isn't that something you can do? Built five brick houses to earn a fortune! ”

Liu Hu smiled: “Not that girls are bad! The girl is old enough to marry someone! That is your brother, spoiling the grass, tormented by her. If you marry someone else, can you leave everything to her like this? Well, don't say that. Talk to you about something. Why don't we go out early next spring and grow some vegetables? We don't sell to the surrounding towns or prefectures, nor do we steal business from the sea. ”

Yu Caifeng thought about it and agreed: “While everyone is free, let's quickly build the house, learn from the old house, build the yard bigger, and diversify the vegetables. If you get a vegetable garden outside, you won't be able to watch it at night! ”

“Well, just build a big yard and use a rock basket!” Liu Hu immediately decided to slap the board.

The next day, with the help of Yuhai, he found more than a dozen young and strong villagers and continued to build Liu's house. Liu's house is also at the foot of Xishan, about 500 meters from the rest of the house. Their families decided to keep a low profile and build houses with civil structures.

It was already autumn, and it was supposed to be the busiest time, because locusts were unable to grow crops, and villagers were idle at home, digging for sea urchins to pick up oysters, or going to town or docks to work part-time.

Seaweed and oysters have been digging more people, earnings are sharply lower every day than usual, less than a day can get a hundred and ten cents of money, and it's already an enviable master to be able to dig a pound and sell a forty and fifty texts.

There are too many people waiting for part-time jobs at the pier and in town, sometimes for days without necessarily having a business to come to. If it weren't for the cheap food, I'd be starving.

Liu Jia built the house in cash, paid thirty manuscripts a day, and ran a meal in the middle. Although the wages are not very high, Liu Hu is the marital relative of Yuhai, Yuhai has a good relationship with this sister, so the villagers are happy to sell one of Yuhai's favorites.

After two days of work, these newborns praised the Liu family for their meals, saying that the business was worth it! This meal of the Liu family is a sturdy two-faced cake, with a lot of white noodles, and the dishes are stuffed every meal. Either it's halogenated, soft-scented pork head, or fried, fragrant pig's large intestine, or even crunchy little fish...

Most happily, besides dried vegetables, every meal has a sautéed green vegetable. You know, this year, a plate of fried green vegetables sells the price of roasted chicken ducks in the Zhenzheng Tower, the gold is very expensive! There is also grasshopper sauce cooked by the rest of the grass herself, so that future generations can admire it. Even if you don't have any other dishes, you can eat two more pies just in spicy grasshopper sauce!

With a delicious meal, the afterlife is even more energetic. Slashing mud, logging, stone walls... everyone can do their best and no one is lazy.

Less than a month later, the Liu family's three dirt houses were built, and the roof they accepted the suggestion of the remaining grass, using green tiles, thus saving the time and energy to repair the house every year. Moreover, thatched roofs tend to leak in summer and cannot withstand snow and wind in winter. With the current financial resources of the Liu family, if it is tight, the brick and brick houses can be built. Why not live uncomfortably to save the silver?

The Liu family is closer to Xishan than the Yu family. Yuhai advised her brother-in-law to dig some traps near the fence just in case.

In fact, their fears are not superfluous. At Liu's house, the garden had just been cleaned up, and the vegetables had been served for less than a few days. Several households at the foot of the west mountain heard the wolves howling at night while sleeping.

Yu Xiaograss woke up and climbed up to Daddy's kang in a quilt. “Daddy, listen! It sounds like a wolf howling! Werewolves down the hill? ”

Her voice went down and a milky howl sounded like a warning in the yard.

Yuhai couldn't help but laugh: “Grass, these two puppies you brought back, for more than two months, won't bark. Hearing the wolf howl is learning to look good. Bring in the two little guys and draw the wolves carefully! ”

At this time, Yuhang and the Little Rock brothers pushed in, holding a little wolf in one's hand. Little Rock laughed: “Little White is so bold, he hears the wolf scream, he dares to yell at them! But the screaming was too childish and not very threatening. ”

Little Black and White are descendants of the Grey Wolf. They came before the full moon, so far they are only more than two months old. They catch locusts every day, and there's some surplus grass to feed them shrimp, and they're sturdy. Perhaps the reason I drank the spirit stone water, the two little guys grew slower, and it was more than two months before I was about the size of a two-month-old son of the Huang family. However, it looks small and luscious and especially cute.

The two little guys listened to the wolves screaming continuously, and the fur blew up, grinning their teeth in the arms of the Yuhang brothers to make a very vicious appearance. Yuhai picked up Xiao Kuo and touched him on his leg. "These two dogs must have werewolf blood. They're not that big. They have a lot of temper. Training well must be a good hound in the future! ”

Yu Xiaocao laughed, what is wolf blood, this is wolf okay? However, I don't know what color the little black and white mother is, how the two little wolves are the exact opposite color, none of them look like big gray. “Big Grey” is the name that Grass just gave to the Grey Wolf. He used to scream, now he's a father, and it's not appropriate to call the Wolf again.

As soon as the two little wolves were put on the kang, they ran to the grass and rubbed her with their heads. They also rolled around her and asked for a touch. They could not see the harsh appearance they had just made.

I have had two years of tiny pimples, haven't changed much in size, and I'm still very fascinated with one of them. It also followed Yu's brothers into the bedroom of the main room. Looking at the two little wolves on the kang, he glanced at the edge of the kang with his front leg and looked at it with his eyes open.

Three small pets from the rest of the family bathe almost every two days, clean and odorless. Yu Xiaolian grabbed a kang and caressed it in her arms. Little black and white is only close to little sister, and cares about other people's caresses and hugs. Yu Xiaolian and Xiaoshi resented this. Luckily, Xiaozi has a good temper, is very close to everyone in the family, slightly compensates for the wounds of his two brothers.

Yuhang worried about the tunnel: “That sounds like a lot of wolves! If we go down the mountain, we'll be the first ones. The county king lives in the mountains, and although guards are there to protect him, he is not safe. Why don't you invite the County King over tomorrow and stay in our west courtyard. Dad, is that what you said? ”

Yu Hai nodded and said: “I can see it! Grass, you're the best person to talk to the County King. You mention it to him at breakfast tomorrow. The wolves are a long way from sounding, and there should be no problem tonight. There's no guarantee after tonight. Sounds like there are at least twenty or thirty of these wolves. Don't underestimate it! ”

Experienced hunters can hear the number of wolves from the wolves howling. Yuhai followed Zhao Baofan for a few years, it should not go wrong.

Liu Shi was somewhat worried: “I don't know what's going on with your sister? They were closer to the western mountains, and if the wolves went down, their families would be the first to suffer. Besides the elder brother-in-law, all the other women and children are scared to death! I think we can pick them up tomorrow. Everything in our yard is empty. We can stay in the crowded room. ”

Yuhai gave his daughter-in-law a praiseworthy look and nodded: “Yes! Let the older sisters move in tomorrow. Living together is a good idea. ”

After worrying about the rest of Caifeng's family, Liu began to worry about his mother's family again: "His father! Xishan Village is not far from Xishan. My mother doesn't know what's going on! ”

Yuhai comforted his daughter-in-law: “Don't worry, Xishan Village is two or three miles from Xishan! My father-in-law's family lives in the village again, and the wolves go to crowded places unless they are in a hurry to starve. Last time I went to Xishan Village, I told the village chief of Xishan Village to set up more traps near the village, and arrange night watches. When the beast comes, it beats the drum, lights the torch, and can scare the beast away. ”

Listening to the man, Liu's heart dropped a few points. This night, few families lived at the foot of the West Mountain, and hardly slept well! Everyone, like the rest of the family, is squeezed into a room, and the hoe shovel is at hand, ready to fight.

As Yuhai predicted, the night was safe and sound. The next day I came to buy vegetables, and it was strange to see the eyes of pandas up and down the rest of the house. Qian Xiaotao asked a few questions, and when he knew why, he patted his chest and promised to bring some forks, bows and arrows and a hunting knife to the rest of the family in the afternoon.

At breakfast, Yu Xiaoxue took a sip. Looking at the black and blue in the eyes of the little girl, Zhu Junyang couldn't help but cry his tongue: “But a few wolves howled all night, so far! You don't have the guts to sparrow! Yes, Grandpa will move in later. Master sits in town, don't talk about the wolves, it's the Jackal tiger leopard all down the mountain, can't hurt you! ”

Yu Xiaowei couldn't help but snort him: “Shut up, will you? My father said that there are at least twenty or thirty of these wolves. We can't go down the mountain together! And the Jackal tiger leopards all go down. You think it's the Beast Commander? ”

Zhu Junyang, not knowing what it means to "mobilize the beast", could also hear Yu Xiaograss sniffing at him, so he snorted coldly: “You have the nerve to use it all on Grandpa! That is, Grandpa doesn't know you like little things, otherwise you don't know how many times you've died! ”
