60s white-eyed wolf

Seeing Cao Fugui with a bad expression brought a hot water basin into the house, Qiao Yingnian suddenly struggled to half sit up vigilantly, his eyes fixed on him.

"Look! Take a bath! Nong sit down, turn up the injured leg, and put it on the side."

Cao Fugui cussed and helped him up, and leaned against the bed wrapped in a quilt, while pulling his ragged and dirty trousers that were cut in half by the old bartender.

The tow oil bottle was so black that it was oily, and the tattered jacket that couldn't see its original appearance had been stripped and thrown away by him a long time ago. That jacket was too shabby for Rhubarb to make a nest.The child was naked from the upper body, and now only half a pair of ragged trousers were left to cover his body. Xiao Qiao blushed and pulled on the trousers, resolutely resisting the hooligan behavior of the bully surnamed Cao.

"Dirty trousers are ripped off, how to cover them up? What's there to cover up like a little bird with no fur?"

Cao Fugui snorted, pulled off the dirty trousers, took a cloth towel and scoured the child with warm water. As he continued to wash, the cloth towel became black and the warm water turned into muddy water.

Qiao Yingnian pulled the quilt tightly with both hands to cover her shame, her head was lowered into the nest of her neck, and the roots of her ears were red.

After taking a bath, Qiao Yingnian still refused to lie down, Fugui stared at him, and then he said in a low voice, "I, I want to pee."

Most of the fever subsided, and he was sweating again. Grandma asked Yingzi to feed him a lot of water, saying that it was diuretic and hydrating.

Fugui unhappily brought a chamber pot, helped the child to drain the water, and said with emotion, "Oh, little Qiao! Elder brother has never served anyone like this before. You are better off than the young master of the landlord's family. Remember, Fugui Brother pulled you up with shit and urine, if you grow up to be successful, you must respect elder brother and me, you know?!"

Qiao Yingnian remained silent.

Fu Gui ignored him, and hurriedly poured out the chamber pot and water basin, carried his dirty trousers downstairs, and turned around to mop off the wet places on the floor.

Seeing him rushing in and out clumsily, Qiao Yingnian suddenly said softly: "Mmm."

"Huh? What are you talking about? No brains."

Fugui broke out in a sweat, and looked at this awkward little wolf cub inexplicably, only to see that he fell asleep again with his head sullen.

As the sun was setting on the western mountain, Cao Fugui casually found an excuse to go out for a trip, and when he returned to the house, he carried a basket full of radishes and cabbages.

Grandma was startled, and she didn't ask any more questions in front of her overjoyed daughter-in-law. She dragged her grandson into her room, and asked solemnly, "Fugui...is it okay to serve a lot of dishes? Grandma just wants you to be safe." , you won’t starve to death if you eat less, but you must never do dangerous and illegal things.”

"Grandmother, just take it easy, it's really bought from someone in the mountains, and they are still waiting for wheat seeds! I store it in a cave in the mountain, and secretly bring it back bit by bit, no one knows."

The old lady nodded, pointed at a cloth bag under the bed, and said in a low voice: "It's just right, just now Ai Dang brought a sack of wheat to plant, Mr. Nong San entrusted someone to buy it with great difficulty, and he can only get it here." A little bit, you can exchange it for grain! Exchange more coarse grains, even finer grains can’t be afforded by Allah.”

Cao Fugui was overjoyed, quickly took the bag, opened it, the wheat was a bit stale, and the grains were of different sizes, although it was not a good kind of wheat, but in such a difficult situation this year, the third grandpa could still buy these before the New Year's Eve. It's a rough road.

Anyway, in Lianlu, we use jade aura to farm, and there is no wind and rain at all. The seeds can definitely be planted, but I don’t know how long it will take "medium speed" to harvest a crop?Thinking of planting and watering, weeding and harvesting, relying on that little mental strength... But in order to feed the family, I have to grow food.Just thinking about it made him feel annoyed.

Grandma patted his hand and discussed with him: "Fugui, I want to ask Second Uncle Nong to visit your aunt in the county, and bring some wild pork while it's fresh...Look at it?"

"Grandma, why don't you just ask me about this kind of thing? Of course, you, the big leader, decide."

Cao Fugui looked at Grandma strangely, his beautiful eyes widened and his long eyelashes flickered, imitating Bao Feng's usual appearance, innocent and cute.

Grandma smiled in relief, and patted her grandson on the head: "Naughty! After all, it is the wild pork hunted by Nong, and Aunt Nong is married again..."

"Grandma, I don't like to hear your words. What's yours and mine? Are we a family? How can we divide you and me? My aunt loved me so much since I was a child, and my aunt often misses me. There are also green pillars and blue stones. Two, aren’t they both my little brothers? They will think of me when they have something delicious and useful; if I have something delicious, how can I forget about them? My conscience has been picked up by a dog!”

Cao Fugui sternly criticized Mrs. Zhang's feudal ideology, and insisted that he go to the county with his second uncle to visit his aunt's family and send wild pork, radish and cabbage along the way.In addition, I also asked my aunt, that pot can be bought at Zhenchenguang, and I cook in clay pots all day long, and I can't even eat a fried dish, so I can't afford it.

The old lady was so coaxed by his sweet mouth that she smiled brightly, agreed repeatedly, and forced her grandson to buy as much food as she could to go home with more than a dozen dollars.

When the family got off work, Mrs. Zhang asked the second child and his wife to build an empty room in the wing room on the first floor, built a bed out of it, and asked a cooper to buy a new toilet to put in it, and moved Xiao Qiao. Got downstairs.

She was afraid that Xiao Qiao's leg would be inconvenient if he injured his leg, and he was also afraid that he would sleep in the same bed with Fugui and prevent the eldest grandson from sleeping. .Although the bedding was difficult, Wang Liuzhi went to several relatives and neighbors to borrow it, and finally made up a bed.

At dinner, Qiao Yingnian refused to sleep in the house no matter what, and insisted on eating by himself, and said in a hoarse voice, just a bowl of thin soup.

Grandpa pondered for a moment, then asked the second child to find two thick moso bamboos, picked up the knife and slapped it a few times, made a walking stick, and gave it to the child, saying: "Live in peace, I have a mouthful of food for you, and I will wait for you." Alright, let’s get back to work.”

Qiao Yingnian took the bamboo cane, nodded fiercely with red eyes.

Yingzi brought him a bowl of sweet potato soup with thinly shredded cabbage in it, which was tender and fragrant.

"I'll collect it when it's finished." The corner of her mouth curled up, she thought about it and said, "Eat slowly, there's still some on the stove, if it's not enough, I'll add more for you."

She put the rough porcelain bowl on the small bamboo stool, put a pair of green bamboo chopsticks, and went out lightly.

As the sun slanted to the west, the roof of the West Wing was darkened, and the half room was illuminated by the dim yellow sunlight, which made the bowl of porridge and rice curl up with steam, quiet and warm.

Qiao Yingnian stared at the food in the bowl, stared blankly for a while, gritted his teeth and moved over with difficulty, picked up the bowl and devoured it hungrily, eating everything in a moment, feeling a sense of warmth from his throat to his stomach, comfortable and comfortable.

Pushing open the door, there was a crackling sound, the grandfather of the Cao family was sitting in the courtyard, chopping bamboo and weaving bamboo baskets.

Qiao Yingnian tried to walk out of the house with a cane, moved to his side step by step, opened his mouth, but found that his throat was hoarse and painful, and he was burned in the thick smoke of the fire.

He spoke with difficulty, and said: "Cao... Grandpa, bamboo... I will learn,... work"

Grandpa Cao nodded, asked Yingzi to bring a high chair over, and said, "Nongmo speak, keep your throat well. Learn slowly."

On the top of the willows in the moon, Cao Fugui stepped into the yard sweating profusely, and saw the oil bottle sitting on the official hat chair with his legs crossed, his brows were knitted tightly, and he was focused on fighting with a piece of bamboo. Ten fingers fluttered, and half of the bottom of the bamboo basket was already woven in his hand.Grandpa sat on the sidelines and split the film, and occasionally gave some advice, Xiao Qiao nodded seriously and agreed, looking extremely well-behaved.

"Oh, Jie is diligent? Didn't you eat a bowl of meat for nothing!"

Cao Fugui approached with a smile, and picked up the bamboo weaving in Qiao Yingnian's hand. Xiao Qiao was startled, and suddenly raised his head, staring straight at him, like a wolf cub that has just grown fangs.

"What's so fierce?!" Cao Fugui rolled his eyes, bent his knuckles and raised a blow, and tapped on Mao Shing's head "resolutely".

Qiao Yingnian squinted at him and did not resist. He silently grabbed the bamboo basket and started weaving it again.

"Wealthy, don't bully children." Grandpa smiled with two deep grooves on his lips.

"Where is it! Grandpa, I was playing with him."

Cao Fugui groaned and stared at Xiao Qiao's work, seeing that his dexterous fingers were stiff, so he laughed, got up and went back to the room.

"Work hard, follow Brother Nong Fugui to have meat to eat!"

He just made an excuse to go out, found a secluded place and entered the refining hut, hurriedly sowed the wheat seeds, turned the energy bar of the medicine field to "medium speed", and not long after, dots of green shoots emerged from the soil.There are not only wheat seedlings, but also weeds!I don't know if it was mixed in the seeds, or he brought it in and out.

Ridging, weeding, watering...a lot of farm work!

He used both his hands and feet, coupled with his mental strength, and worked hard to finish all the important work in a hurry.Fortunately, although he doesn't go to the fields very much on weekdays, he is still a farm boy, and he can still distinguish the wheat seedlings from the weeds.

Since weeds will grow, maybe insects will grow in the future...

Thinking of my second uncle and his neighbors facing the loess in the field with their backs to the sky, exposed to the scorching sun, leeches biting their feet, working hard for half a year, and sweating eight petals in exchange for the harvest, Cao Fugui wanted to cry but had no tears.Even if there is no wind, no rain, and no leeches in the refining hut, the environment will be a hundred times better, and the crops will grow quickly, and the work that needs to be done is still indispensable.After doing this hard work for a long time, he was already on the ground begging for mercy.If it weren't for the fear of famine, I really wanted the wheat to grow naturally, and it would depend on luck as to how much I could harvest.

He has always been lazy and slippery, and now he has been gritting his teeth for a long time, thinking about where to trick a few strong laborers to do the hard work for him, but thinking about the possibility of his treasure being known by others, Cao Fugui shook his head and gave up the idea.Relatives dare not tell, how dare to let others enter the baby refining house.

The old ancestors said it well, the king lost his country without secret, and the minister without secret...lost, lost his body!

Regretfully, he turned his head and stared at Xiao Qiao's dexterous hands, and lamented, there are younger brothers who can't use it, back time!

Early the next morning, Cao Qingxian and his team asked for leave, and went to the county with his nephew to visit his eldest sister.

Mrs. Zhang originally had two daughters, but the youngest one couldn't stand still. She passed away after the first illness when she was three years old, and there was only one eldest daughter left, and she cherished it all the more.

Cao Lianxiu fell in love with Qian Enhai, a cadre of the county's agricultural machinery factory, and married Qian Enhai, who became a city resident.Although Lao Qian was a widower back then, the former man died of illness and left no children. After he married Cao Lianxiu, he also loved his wife very much, and gave birth to two fat boys, Cao Guigui's cousin Qian Qingzhu. , two brothers Qian Qingshi.

Although the old Cao's family has become a relative of this "high family", Mrs. Zhang has repeatedly restrained the family members, not to disturb the in-laws all the time, so as not to embarrass the girl.Although the family is poor, on weekdays, at the beginning and end of festivals, I would bring some local products to the Qian family. Qian Enhai is a nice person, and he did not look down on his relatives in the countryside. It was affectionate, and it also opened up a network of contacts for Lao Cao's family in the county.

Grandma asked the second child to put a dozen catties of wild pork into the basket, and then asked the second child to put a basket of pickled radishes and cabbage, covered the top with sundries, put it on the borrowed cart, and repeatedly told the second child to take good care of it Nephew, if you are tired, take a break, and don't be reluctant to eat the roasted jerky...

Cao Fugui waved his hand and let Grandma enter the room, smiling blushingly: "Grandma, don't worry! I will definitely bring the things to my aunt's house, and then I will bring back the big pot."

Qiao Yingnian leaned against the door with a bamboo cane, silently watching him walk out of the yard.
