Crossing the Qinghe Landlord gl

Chapter 2 First Acquaintance (Catching Bugs)

Qinghe River is a small river branched from many tributaries of Yihuangshui. The section passing through Qinghe Village is only three feet wide.The women in the village often come to wash and wash, and there are also children swimming and playing here.

When Xia Jiniang came here for the first time, Aunt Li's eldest son was still at home, and he took her to the river to catch fish, so Xia Jiniang still had some memories of this.When I came to the Qinghe River again, a familiar feeling came to my heart.

There were a few children playing nearby, she didn't pay much attention to it, but found a high place where she could spread the fishing net and put the fish basket.After casting the net, she waited for a while, and then began to collect the net.

With only two or three small palm-sized fish coming up from the fishing net, she released them back into the river, and then began to cast the net again.

At this time, there was a sudden "plop" sound of falling into the water, and she turned her head to look, only to see one of the children who were playing just now fell into the water.Two five or six-year-old children stood beside him, watching him struggle with a smile, while another eight-year-old child ran away.

"Second brother, help!" The child in the river obviously couldn't swim, he struggled violently and shouted, and was soon submerged in the water, only his hands were constantly grabbing.

Xia Jiniang was startled, she didn't care about the fishing net, she jumped into the water.She dexterously swam towards the child who was submerged above her head, caught him in a short while, and brought him to the shore.

The two children ran away at some point, Xia Jiniang ignored them and hurriedly checked the child's situation.The child has already passed out, obviously he choked on a lot of water just now, if he doesn't rescue him, he will die!

Suddenly, a figure rushed out beside him, knelt down beside the child, patted the child's shoulders with his slender hands, and shouted loudly in a slightly hoarse voice: "Lu'er, Lu'er!"

Xia Jiniang immediately remembered that she was the cow herding girl she met earlier, she was about to speak, but saw the girl opened his mouth to check, and immediately lifted him up against his stomach.A lot of water flowed out of the child's mouth and nose, but he still didn't wake up.

"Deer!" The eight-year-old boy shouted timidly from the side.

The girl touched the child's neck again, leaned over to know what she was doing, and then leaned forward mouth to mouth...

Xia Jiniang was stunned for a moment, she had no idea what this girl was doing, even if this child was her own, such behavior was really out of line.

Just as she was thinking about these things, the child's chest heaved obviously, and the girl let out a heavy breath.Xia Jiniang found that she was very methodical in doing all this, but her nervous expression still betrayed her flustered heart.It is also rare to be able to do one's own thing so undividedly under such a flustered situation.

"Deer!" The girl patted the child on the shoulder again.

After a while, the child woke up slowly, and when he saw the girl, he called weakly: "Second brother."

Xia Jiniang suspected that she had heard it wrong, but the girl's next behavior made her question her original judgment.I saw the girl replied: "Just wake up, the second brother will take you to the doctor."

"There is no doctor in the village." The eight-year-old child reminded.

The girl was taken aback, Xia Jiniang hurriedly said: "It's been cold in the spring for the past two days, I'd better go back quickly and change my clothes, then fry some salt and use a cloth to iron my navel..."

The girl stared at her, but did not refute. Instead, she picked up the child and passed through the bamboo forest, entering the big house with very high walls.

Xia Jiniang wanted to see if she needed help, but when she reached the door, her eyes widened suddenly: "Could it be that he is Brother Donkey?!"

After a while Zhang He appeared at the door again, looked at Xia Jiniang who was standing outside the door, and saluted: "Please... this lady will help again."

Without thinking too much, Xia Jiniang went in to help Zhang He burn firewood and fry salt.During this time, a few curious women gathered around the gate of the Zhang family, and they chirped and asked, "I heard that Saburo of the Zhang family fell into the water?"

"how did this happen?"

"I heard it was pushed down by that little bastard from Zhang Bing's family."

"What a ruthless heart! You can be so ruthless at such a young age, how can you be so ruthless when you grow up?!"

"Aren't they all spoiled by Mrs. Zhang of Zhang Bing's family?!"

Xia Jiniang was willing to listen to gossip, but she didn't have the time to spare. She sent the fried salt to Zhang He, and helped Zhang He cover the child tightly.The child's condition gradually stabilized, and he was so sleepy that he fell asleep.

Zhang He heaved a sigh of relief, but he still planned to ask the doctor to come back and have a look, so as not to cause any problems.At this time, she felt the figure beside her shaking, so she raised her head to look at the person who rescued Zhang Xian.

A head of messy hair was wet against the back, and although the clothes were no longer dripping, they were still wet.Her face was a little pale, but she didn't tremble from the cold.

"Thank you for this lady's life-saving grace! It's cold, you should quickly change out of your wet clothes, lest you catch the cold."

Xia Jiniang thought about Zhang He's words, although they were a little weird, but she could understand them.She nodded and said, "So I'll go back first."

Zhang He quickly stopped her: "Girl, this lady is not from the village, she looks unfamiliar."

"My surname is Xia, and I'm not from this village. I came to Qinghe Village for a while because of business." Xia Jiniang didn't tell her own name, after all, it would not be nice to tell a strange man her boudoir name so actively.

Zhang He suddenly remembered the woman he had met once at the beginning of the afternoon, and she said, "Are you here to find Aunt Li?"

Seeing that she opened her eyes wide, Xia Jiniang thought she was extremely cute, and she thought to herself that it was no wonder she mistook this person for a woman at first, there are very few men in this world who behave like this.She smiled and nodded yes.

Zhang He hurriedly grabbed a chicken from the chicken coop and handed it to Xia Jiniang, saying: "Ms. Xia's life-saving grace, I, Zhang He, will never forget it, and I don't know how to repay it right now. I only have some food to express my heart." .Please take it back, if you need any help in the future, you can tell me, and I will do my best to repay you."

"It's nothing to do with a little effort." Xia Jiniang said, but she didn't ask for it.

Zhang He walked out and said, "Then I'll take it to Aunt Li myself!"

Xia Jiniang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she had to accept it, and said: "Young brother still needs someone to take care of him, so you don't want to leave."

When Xia Jiniang left, Zhang He's house was still surrounded by some village women watching the excitement. When they saw Zhang He, they chirped and asked, "Zhang Erlang, how is your Sanlang?"

"He's fine, please take care of him," Zhang He said.

When the village women heard the words, they were a little bit interested, and after a few words of relief to Zhang He, they left one after another.Zhang He looked at them, and sneered silently, how could she not know that these people just watched the fun, and they didn't think it was a big deal, and they wanted to see her and Zhang Bing's family go to court.

It has been nearly a year since she came to this world, and she has figured out what these people are thinking.

As soon as Xia Jiniang returned to Aunt Li's house to put down the chicken that Zhang He had given her, she remembered her fishing net again, and hurried to the river to look for it, only to find that the fishing net and the fish basket were gone.She couldn't help but burst into tongues: "Who would take advantage of such a small advantage?!"

When I returned to Aunt Li's house, Aunt Li just came back, she was startled when she saw her like this, and asked what was going on.Xia Jiniang told about Zhang Xian's drowning, upon hearing this Aunt Li rushed to Zhang He's house, and said, "I have to go and see Brother Lu, it's not a trivial matter to fall into the water in this cold spring day!"

"I'll go with my aunt!" Xia Jiniang hurried back to the house and changed into dry clothes, and then went to Zhang He's house with Aunt Li.

"Brother Donkey." Aunt Li shouted at the door.

Zhang He sat in the front hall, and beside her was an eight-year-old child.She saw two people at the door and invited them in.

When she first came to Zhang He's house, Xia Jiniang didn't pay much attention to this second courtyard-style house, but now knowing that Zhang Xian's life is not in danger, she has the leisure time to focus on other things.

As soon as you enter this two-entry courtyard, the two rooms in the southeast are the kitchen and the utility room, and the southwest is a cowshed and chicken coop; followed by the front hall in the middle, and there are side rooms on both sides of the front hall; The front hall is the house of the people.Overall, the house is still relatively old. Although there are traces of repairs, there is no major repair.

Xia Jiniang became a little curious when she thought about Zhang He's life experience that Aunt Li said, but she knew what to ask and what not to ask.

"Brother Lu, what happened?" Aunt Li asked hurriedly.

"I just asked Gao Dalang's youngest son, and he said that Lu'er was playing with him by the river, and Zhang Ci and Zhang Mu encouraged Lu'er to go down to the river to catch fish. Lu'er refused, so they pushed him. The second time, the deer stumbled and fell into the water. The place where they played in the water was deep, and the deer was not able to swim..." Zhang He frowned, his face serious.

"This word and Zhang Mu are doing something wrong! No, we can't just let this matter go, Brother Lu almost lost his life!" Aunt Li said bitterly.

"I'll settle the score with them, so Madam doesn't have to worry about it." Zhang He said, his eyes flicked to Xia Jiniang, and he smiled again, "Speaking of which, it was Lady Xia who helped Lu'er out of danger!"

"Oh, by the way, donkey brother, this is my niece, named Ji Niang. She is here to help me with work these days, don't you know how to make a fire, just let her teach you." Aunt Li enthusiastically say.

"Huh?" Both Zhang He and Xia Jiniang were slightly taken aback.

Zhang He blushed, and said with a smile: "I can already make a fire now, but I'm not very proficient yet."

Xia Jiniang thought to herself that Zhang He came from a wealthy family, and he didn't even know how to make a fire.However, she thought that Aunt Li's family needed to borrow old cattle and farm tools from Zhang He, so she said, "I'll teach you in my spare time."

"thanks……"

Xia Jiniang thought that Zhang He was really weird, she didn't see the arrogance or domineering of the family at all, but she didn't have the bookishness like her brother either.After much deliberation, she couldn't figure it out, she thought maybe Zhang He was cultivated.

Aunt Li looked at the two of them and thought to herself: These two are unmarried and unmarried, the donkey brother is handsome and considerate, Ji Niang is beautiful and can take care of others; the donkey brother is not good at living, but Ji Niang can help him ;Brother Lu is a good man who doesn't value property, if he can marry Ji Niang, he will definitely not ask for too much dowry...

Zhang He and Xia Jiniang sneezed violently one after another.
