little couple

The steward ran over and whispered something in Qianqianqian's ear, because Ning Yin was at the side, so Ning Yin heard it clearly.

It turned out that these people were all villagers from Zhaojia Village, and they were hired by the manager of the tea mountain to carry water for the tea trees every day for money. I picked up water, and said that I need to add money, otherwise I will drop the pick.

Qian Qianqian was annoyed: "How can you go back on a good thing temporarily!?"

The villagers of these Zhaojia Village were also very confident: "The nearest river here is the river at the gate of our Zhaojia Village. In the past half a month, we have been watering the tea trees from the river at the gate of our village, but now It hasn't rained for a month, and the river at the gate of the village doesn't have as much water as usual, and we still don't know when it will rain, so we really don't dare to dive at the gate of our own village anymore... ..."

After the words fell, the man continued: "What's more, we don't even dare to pick up our own water and drinks so diligently now, and we don't even dare to make the villagers poke their backs for a few copper coins." Scolding!"

Money money is speechless.

Ning Yin stood aside and listened without saying a word, just turned around, only to find that the flowers and plants near the bottom of the mountain are much less, and the leaves of some flowers and plants are withered and yellow, looking wilted.

If this continues, I'm afraid something will happen.

Qian Qianqian discussed with those villagers: "Then what do you guys plan to do? Stop carrying water, or do you have other plans?..."

Guan Yuyi said: "The nearest village near the tea mountain is Zhaojia Village, but a little further away, there are Wangjiacun and Zhoujiacun. If you don't like it, we can also hire others to carry water."

The villagers in Zhaojia Village were a little hesitant, and one of them said: "Crossing a mountain, there is a big river behind the mountain, and that river is the Hanwu River. The few of us can pick the water from the Hanwu River, but this is really too much." It's far away, so... can I add some money?"

Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, it is natural to add money, after all, carrying water across mountains and mountains is indeed a bit troublesome.

When the steward was negotiating the price with several villagers, Qianqian felt that it was still early, so he took a few descendants of the Jin family up the mountain to look at the tea trees, but at the foot of the mountain, he saw Ning Yin squatting on the ground. what to look at.

The past of money and joy: "What are you looking at for a long time?"

Ning Yin threw away the dead grass in his hand, and said with emotion: "This year is the hottest summer in Heguicheng, and it is also the summer with the least rain."

As soon as this was mentioned, Qian Qianqian's face was full of sadness: "Don't mention it, I'm almost losing money."

Ning Yin stood up, patted the dirt on his hands, and said, "It's done, it's getting late, I should go back."

Qian Qianqian said decisively: "Then let's go back together."

Ning Yin was walking back, and she was happy when she heard the words: "Don't you want to go up the mountain, it's still early, why did you go back?"

Qian Qianqian pouted, and muttered: "Forget it, let's go, I still have lingering fears about the Chen Mansion."

Ning Yin still had something in mind, so he didn't continue to tease the cowardly money, but said if he had something to do: "Tell me, if I go to the Humen Bodyguard Agency to do odd jobs, will it work?"

Qian Qianqian looked him up and down, and said affirmatively, "It's definitely not possible."

Ning Yin said depressedly: "My hands and feet are nimble, why can't I do it?"

"I've been to the Humen Bodyguard Bureau. The handymen can also learn martial arts, and they can't be outsiders. They are new disciples in their bodyguard bureau. Everyone's skills are not bad." Qian Qianqian said: "Although you know martial arts, the martial arts you learned are not Humen Bodyguard Agency, so they won't accept it."

Ning Yin did not give up and said: "...Is there no way at all?"

"It's not impossible," Qianqian frowned in embarrassment: "But it will take a lot of work. Why, do you intend to enter the escort agency?"

Ning Yin coughed dryly: "What are you asking so much about?"

Money and money don't matter.

Not long after they left, the steward came over with an ox cart, and greeted him from a distance: "Master Jin, I have an ox cart here, and I will take you into the city."

Qianqian was in a hurry to go out, and he left the city with only a few servants, let alone a carriage, so he was worrying about how he would go back to the city, but he saw the steward pulling an ox cart When he came over, he was overjoyed to greet him: "Good, good, good!"

The group returned to the city, and when they reached the gate of the city, Ning Yin said hello and went home on his own, but when he was walking home, he still remembered that there were two little nephews at home, so he bought a bag on the way back. A pack of sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

When Dou Sha and Chestnut saw the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, they were really overjoyed, but they didn't dare to eat it without permission. They sat on the chairs, staring at the sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the table, their eyes lit up .

Ning Yin was arranging the dried herbs in the first room on the left side of the yard. When he was devoting himself to it, the sound of "knock knock" sounded outside the house, and Ning Yin said without raising his head, "Come in."

Dang Gui pushed the door open and came in, said: "Master, it's time to eat."

"Yeah." Ning Yin turned around, and when she walked out, she remembered what she had explained earlier: "Did you buy everything?"

"I bought a lot of grain, which can be eaten for more than half a month, and I put it in the cellar behind the yard." After a pause, Dang Gui continued with a sad face: "The prices of grain stores in the city have increased, and even the price of vegetables has increased." It has also risen a lot, and if this trend continues, if it doesn’t rain again, I don’t know where it will rise.”

"Indeed." Ning Yin walked into the room while talking, and was about to continue talking, but saw the two little guys looking at the food and sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the table without moving.

Ning Yin paused, and said helplessly, "Why don't you eat?"

Dou Sha is five years old, three years older than his younger brother Chestnut, and he speaks clearly and methodically: "Uncle eat first, and Chestnut and I will eat later."

Ning Yin raised his eyebrows. He took out two small pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and stuffed them into red bean paste and chestnut respectively. He said indifferently, "It's okay, eat it. This was originally bought for you, eat it."

Chestnut lowered his head to eat the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, his mouth was full of pastry crumbs, and he said happily: "It's delicious."

Although the bean paste is eaten in small bites, the joy in the eyes cannot be hidden.

Ning Yin picked up the bowls and chopsticks, said while eating: "Eat one piece for each person, and eat when you're done."

Dou Sha nodded, looked at Ning Yin cautiously, saw that he was not angry, finished eating the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his hand, wiped his hands, and started eating with chopsticks.

Chestnut finished eating the pastry, opened his mouth, and waited for Angelica to feed him.

After Ning Yin finished his meal, he continued to count the medicinal materials. After tidying up, he sat at the wooden table, lit an oil lamp, and read the medical books slowly. When the night was quiet, he went back to the room to rest.

The next day, Ning Yin didn't go to the Humen Security Bureau, because he couldn't go in, and it was useless to watch at the door, so he went out of the city, walked around the nearby mountains, picked half a basket of herbs, and caught a hare , Then I went down the mountain in a good mood.

When Ning Yin walked to the foot of the mountain, he saw Zhaojia Village across the river. There seemed to be more than a dozen villagers gathered, making a lot of noise, as if something had happened.

Ning Yin stood on the opposite bank, looking across the bridge, but the scene was too noisy, Ning Yin didn't understand why they were arguing.

However, Ning Yin noticed the shoulder pole thrown on the ground and two wooden barrels for carrying water, but because they were too far away, Ning Yin didn't see whether the two wooden barrels contained water or not.

Not long after, the village head of Zhaojia Village came out. He scolded the villagers, telling the villagers surnamed Zhao to go home and work in the fields when they should.

After a while, everyone dispersed.

A dark-skinned man embarrassedly picked up the pole on the ground, picked up two wooden barrels, and hurried home.However, this person was not from Zhaojia Village, but from another village. Because there was nothing he could do, he went all the way to Zhaojia Village to fetch water.

Ning Yin walked back to the city slowly, halfway there, he looked around, there was no one on the way back to the city, so Ning Yin simply mobilized his inner strength, used lightness kung fu, and soon came to the gate of the city.

He lifted the medicine basket on his back, wiped the hot sweat on his forehead as if nothing had happened, and then strode towards the city. When he passed by a teahouse, Ning faintly heard a storyteller in the teahouse saying He didn't care about the few stories about Yaowang Valley, and walked straight home.

There are so many things happening in this arena every day, a small Medicine King Valley is nothing.

As soon as he got home, Ning Yin handed the medicine basket to Angelica, and then plunged into the house to read.

It wasn't until the third day that Ning Yin went out again. This was because Angelica had to take care of the medicine field behind the yard and had no time to take care of the two young masters. Ning Yin happened to be tired of staying at home, so she offered to take them out Take a turn.

Dou Sha and Chestnut were so happy that they had been standing in the yard waiting for Ning Yin.

Ning Yin prepared a medicine basket, and when he went out, he told the two little guys: "There are many people on the street, follow me closely later, don't get separated, do you hear me?"

The two little guys nodded seriously: "Okay, uncle."

Ning Yin thought, although Ning Sujing is quite annoying, but the two little guys are quite rare, not bad.

Thinking of this, Ning Yin said casually: "Ning Sujing doesn't have time to take care of you, so what about your mother, doesn't she have time?"

Dou Sha hesitated, "Mother forbids us to say..."

Chestnut was dumbfounded, as if he didn't understand what they were talking about.

Ning Yin frowned, and didn't continue to ask, but she became suspicious in her heart, could something have happened, otherwise why would Ning Sujing and his wife send their child here?

Or are Ning Sujing and his wife doing more important things now?

There are a lot of food on the riverside of South Street, there are hot wontons, sweet and sour candied haws, delicious painted candies... It seems that nothing has changed, but the water in the Hegui River is half less than usual. The leaves of the willow trees on both sides of the river bank were also withered and yellow. Pedestrians who came and went hurriedly walked, raising their hands from time to time to wipe off the hot sweat on their faces, and then looked up at the sun in the sky, with helplessness on their faces, and then bowed their heads and continued to walk forward.

Dou Sha looked around and said, "Why are there so few people?"

Ning Yin said in a low tone: "Yes..."

After walking another two steps, Ning Yin found that there were several people in dark blue clothes in front of him. After looking carefully, he realized that they were all from the Sword Forging Sect, and Zuo Wuxun was among them.

Ning Yin was taken aback, turned around and left with bean paste and chestnuts, and hurriedly said: "Let's go, there are candied haws over there, I'll buy you candied haws."

Ning Yin walked too fast, so he didn't notice that Zuo Wuxun had already seen him.
