Chapter 211 Naughty Child
Chapter 211 Naughty Child
After the car drove out of the county town, Xu Yu wanted to say a few words to his second brother, so he called him loudly.
Unexpectedly, Brother Xu also said to her loudly: "Sister, don't talk to me now, let me count how much I earned today."
Xu Yu: “…”
After a while, Brother Xu's loud laughter came from behind.
Xu Yu couldn't stand it anymore and complained to Jiang Yi: "Did Second Brother become a fool because of this hundred yuan?"
But think about it, he only got punched twice today and earned more than a hundred yuan, which is equivalent to a worker's half-year salary, and a farmer can't even earn that in a year. It's normal to be happy.
It took a while before Second Brother Xu spoke to Xu Yu: "Sister, I'll buy you something delicious when we get home."
Xu Yu couldn't help but smile and crossed his arms, and replied loudly and bluntly: "I want to eat two kilograms of White Rabbit milk candy."
Xu Jianping said generously: "No problem."
Xu Yu then said to Jiang Yi, "Second brother is so generous, should I ask for more?"
Jiang Yi actually nodded.
Xu Yu laughed out loud, and then loudly asked Brother Xu: "I want to eat more meat. Go back and buy two pounds of meat and ask mom to make braised pork for us."
Brother Xu: "No problem."
Brother Xu: "When these pigs grow up, I'll let you eat meat every day."
Xu Yu was satisfied.
……
The next day, Jiang Yi went to the county town early again.
Xu Yu did not follow him, but instead prepared medicine for several men and their families at home.
While she was preparing the medicine, she was reciting the information that Mr. Hu had sent her.
Around 3:00 p.m., the weather changed. Yang Wenhui said to Xu Yu, "It's going to rain soon. I'm going to feed the chickens and ducks first. Otherwise, it will be hard to feed them if the rain gets too heavy."
Xu Yu followed her to feed the chickens and ducks.
After more than a month of feeding, the chickens and ducks at home have grown a lot.
While calling them over to graze, Yang Wenhui said to Xu Yu, "Luckily, we have Dingdang and Xiaohu at home. Otherwise, it wouldn't be safe to keep them here. Many families in the village have already reported that their chickens and ducks have been taken away by weasels."
Xu Yu knew that there were not only many rats but also many weasels at this time. After thinking for a while, he said, "I'll make some medicine that weasels are afraid of. I'll have Dad give it to the village chief and then distribute it."
Yang Wenhui nodded: "Okay, then we'll follow the old rules and let them help you collect herbs."
Xu Yu smiled and nodded.
Now many people in the village would come to Xu Yu to get medicine. Xu Yu would not charge any money and would just ask them to help collect as many herbs as they wanted.
Although the herbs everyone picked were very common, it saved Xu Yu a lot of effort.
"Then prepare more and send some to your parents and uncles."
Xu Yu also had this idea.
After feeding the chickens and ducks, it really started to rain.
Yang Wenhui put on her straw raincoat and hat and said to Xu Yu, "Xiaoyu, I'm going to give your father a straw raincoat and hat."
After saying that, he still told her worriedly: "The rain will definitely get heavier. Don't go out, or you will get soaked."
Xu Yu nodded at her and said, "Mom, be careful on the road."
"it is good."
After Yang Wenhui left, Xu Yu called Dingdang and Xiaohu into the house, and then went to the kitchen to prepare cooking.
The little tiger has been eating a lot of meat recently, even more than Dingdang, so Jiang Yi takes them to the edge of the mountains every one or two days early in the morning to catch a lot of wild game for it to eat. Today it looks particularly excited, running around there, and occasionally bumping into Dingdang who is squatting next to Xu Yu.
Dingdang got angry and bared her teeth at the tiger, and only then did the little tiger calm down.
Xu Yu said to it jokingly: "You can just play if you want to, but why do you always make noises? You deserve to be scolded."
The furry kid was sad and rubbed her from behind with his now-big head.
The little tiger was now stronger, and Xu Yu was not paying attention and was knocked forward.
Fortunately, she was quick-witted and used one hand to support her body with the tongs and the other hand to support herself on the stove wall.
Before Xu Yu could come back to his senses, Dingdang barked at Xiaohu a few times, as if to educate it.
After being called, the little tiger walked to the side with a wronged look, then lay on the ground, and then used its front paws to cover its head and whimpered.
Xu Yu looked at it with amusement and said, "Are you still feeling wronged? Don't use so much strength next time. If I had jumped on the fire just now, it would have been terrible."
The little tiger opened his face, which was blocked by the barrier, and whimpered at her.
Like an apology.
Xu Yu reached out and touched its head, saying, "I forgive you."
The little tiger was happy, but he didn't get up and run around anymore. Instead, he continued to lie there.
After the water in the pot boiled, Xu Yu took the porcelain basin and walked towards the rice jar.
Just as she dug out the rice for the three of them, several loud voices suddenly came from outside.
"Little fish!"
"sister in law!"
"sister in law!"
……
Xu Yu hurriedly walked out of the kitchen and saw Jiang Yi and others rushing in from outside in the heavy rain.
Looking at the men who were soaked to the skin but still maintained their imposing manner, Xu Yu hurriedly said to Jiang Yi, "Brother Yi, quickly go get a dry towel and wipe you guys off. There's water in the pot too. You can wash your faces first after you change your clothes."
Dingdang and Xiaohu, who followed them, ran straight to the gate to greet them when they saw them.
Xu Yu was still cooking and was afraid that the firewood in the stove would fall out, so he didn't go over. After saying this, he went back to the kitchen.
When she added water to the pot and put the washed rice that the men were going to eat into the pot to cook after the water boiled, Jiang Yi just happened to come in after changing his clothes.
Jiang Yi took over the job of chopping vegetables. Xu Yu asked him, "Aren't you going to wash your faces?"
"I've already washed it."
"Did you use cold water?"
"Ah."
As soon as he finished answering, several other people came in.
Several people were scrambling to work, leaving Xu Yu with no place to sit.
She stood by and asked, "Why are you back at this time?"
Zhu Juncheng replied, "This afternoon, the boss saw that the weather was bad, so he asked us to pack up and call it a day. It was still early, and everyone wanted to go home, so we all came back together."
Xu Yu smiled and said, "You guys came back just in time. I just finished cooking."
Yan Liang smiled proudly: "Haha...we are just counting the time."
Xu Yu also laughed.
Jiang Yi told her, "Director Wu came to me this morning and said that X Steel Plant called him and asked him to bring his design and some samples over. X Steel Plant is not far from the provincial capital, so he wanted me to go with him, and I agreed."
Xu Yu nodded and asked, "Should we go to the provincial capital in advance?"
"Well, it would be better if you go there early to familiarize yourself with the environment there."
Jiang Yi was obviously a little worried that Xu Yu would not be able to adapt after suddenly going to the big city.
Xu Yu was sure he had no objection, so he asked again: "What about our house?"
"Director Wu will help find someone to keep an eye on it."
Xu Yu nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "Since you are all back and have worked hard these days, I will give you another acupuncture treatment tonight."
Everyone will definitely agree.
Jiang Yi asked, "Where are my parents?"
"Mom went to bring Dad a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat."
Jiang Yi hummed, then handed the vegetable chopping job to Zhang Qiang and said, "I'll go out and pick them up."
