The fertile water of farming does not flow to outsiders' fields

Early the next morning, Father Xue hummed a little song and went to Chang Dani's house with two strings of blood sausage and a wind fish.

Knocking on the door of Dani's house, Father Xue explained the purpose of coming, but he was rejected directly: "Uncle Xue, many people in Chenjia Village are greedy for my ducks, but I will never give them to anyone. If you can’t give it to them, it’s not easy to give it to your family, so please go back.”

Father Xue didn't expect to touch the ashes on the nose, and dragged the blood sausage and dried fish home angrily.After listening to the narration, Xue Yinsong patted his father on the shoulder and comforted him: "Then let's find another way. Are there any good varieties of local ducks? Let's go and buy some female ducks."

Father Xue made a long face: "The local reed duck has a big skeleton and less meat, and the meat is not as tender as the duck. If it really can't be done, we have to make do with it." Xue Yinsong chuckled: "Let's go and buy a few beautiful hens. The ducks should also be put in the river to take a bath and eat, maybe they will be cooked in a few days, let's use it to grow eggs."

Father Xue's eyes lit up, and he quickly gave a thumbs up: "Sure enough, it's a good idea! It's decided that we will pick some beautiful female ducks in the spring. Although they are not as good as shelducks, they are better than reed ducks."

If you breed several generations according to the rules of genes, you may be able to get a relatively pure shelduck gene, but this explanation is too complicated, Xue Yinsong directly omitted it, and asked: "How is your dish prepared? There are still four days left." It's the Chinese New Year, and I haven't seen what you've prepared yet."

Father Xue hurriedly pulled him into the kitchen, pointed to some cakes and fruits piled up in the cabinet next to him, and said, "The offerings are all ready, and the dishes are almost ready, and there are more than a dozen eggs that have been saved in the past two months since the beginning of winter." , How about some egg dumplings? There are steamed stuffed buns and tofu, I’m going to make steamed stuffed buns with vegetarian fillings, and two baskets of tofu.”

"Then hurry up, I'm going to go outside the village to see if I can mow some grass." Xue Yinsong went to get the grass basket and sickle. After winter, everything withered, and the food of rabbits and pigs became a big problem. , although there is still a room full of cabbage at home, but it is not enough to feed the livestock.

Father Xue quickly stopped him and said, "If you go to the market at the head of the village and help me buy some alkaline noodles to knead steamed buns, and some brine for tofu."

Xue Yinsong agreed to go outside, first went to the side for a stroll, only found some withered and yellow grass stalks, and then walked outside the village.Once the snow snows on the mountain, the grass will all wither, even the road up the mountain is blocked, and now we can only look for it nearby, but the villagers use grass to raise pigs and cattle, so there may be nothing left.

Just as he was thinking wildly about going outside the village to try his luck, he saw a crowd of people crowded in front of him.

Xue Yinsong doesn't gossip by nature, but in the ancient times when birds don't shit and chickens don't lay eggs, the gossip factor in his body swells like a mountain, so he hurried a few steps to join in the fun.

Chang Dani was being led outside in shackles, and her man, Pan San, panicked behind her: "How could it be! How could it be! She didn't kill anyone! Wronged! Wronged!"

Xue Yinsong was taken aback, and hurriedly asked the people next to him: "What's the matter?"

"Just now the official sent someone to say that it was finally found out. On the day Chen Shan died, it turned out to be her murderer. She beat Chen Shan first because of a quarrel, and then hung her up to pretend to commit suicide. This woman is really hateful! Really hateful!" Said an ugly man.

Chang Dani was dragged away numbly, and suddenly raised her head and laughed loudly: "Chen Shan deserves his death! He deserves it! He deserved what he deserved!"

Xue Yinsong saw that there was something wrong, so he hurried forward. A yamen servant stepped forward and pushed the crowd away, and said bluntly: "Get back quickly, the murderer has been arrested now, and I will go back to the county yamen to bring justice!"

The crowd squeezed out of a road, and the three yamen servants pushed Chang Dani back and forth.

Xue Yinsong went to the market to buy some brine and soda noodles and hurried home, almost bumping into the little scholar on the way.Father Xue was a little surprised after hearing this: "Could it be that you really hit the spot? But I grew up watching you, big girl. This child doesn't look like a murderer."

Xue Yinsong turned around twice and said, "I don't think so either, because women's strength is not as strong as men's. It's possible for her to fight, but if she wants to hurt someone before hanging up, I don't think so." Possibly, because it is purely based on strength, she is not as tall as Chen Shan, how can a woman hang up a man who is taller and stronger than herself after a fight?"

Father Xue said decisively: "There must be some misunderstandings, what should we do about this, if the sentence is really passed, Da Nizi will die."

Xue Yinsong frowned and thought for a while, then said: "I'll go to his house and have a look."

Xue Yinsong put down the straw basket and scythe and ran to Da Ni's house. Cake San was sitting at the door of the house, holding a shoe.

"Hey, Cake San, do you still know me? The last time I came to your house was because of that duck." Xue Yinsong walked over and slowly sat down next to him.

"Oh, it's you." Cake San glanced at him.

"What happened today, do you know? Why was Da Nizi taken away?"

Cake San replied in a dazed way: "Dani did go to the mountain that day. She met Chen Shan and fought because of a disagreement. She told me when she came back, but she didn't kill anyone... She didn't kill anyone." kill……"

Xue Yinsong thought hard for a while, this is similar to what he had guessed at the beginning, Chang Dani and Chen Shan should have some old enemies, because they know martial arts, they probably started fighting as soon as they met, but what happened after the fight?Could it be that she turned around and left, and then a third party came up with evil thoughts and made a frame?

If there is a third person, who is that third person?Why did he kill Chen Shan?According to what Chen Liang said, the two brothers have lived in peace for two years, and the enemy has gone too old and has no ability to take revenge, so who is the murderer?

Xue Yinsong thought hard, searched all the detective films he had seen before in his mind, and suddenly a new idea popped up: Could it be Chen Liang?The two brothers squandered a large amount of family property, and then they barely found a place to live with the help of their uncle Lizheng.

The older brother is married, the younger brother is unmarried, and some time ago the younger brother even approached Li Zheng to separate the family...Xue Yinsong looked into the distance intently, and boldly assumed in his heart that if Chang Dani left after beating Chen Shan, then the older brother would have Following Chen Shan, seeing that the situation was favorable, he immediately strangled his younger brother to death and hung him up to pretend to commit suicide.

Well, it is very possible, but this is just a conjecture. If you want to get proof, you have to go to the county government to find a way to meet Chang Dani. Thinking of this, Xue Yinsong turned to Bing San: "Are you ready to order tomorrow? I'll accompany you to the county government." Bing San was stunned, and hurriedly agreed to stand up and thank him.

The two met at the entrance of the village at an agreed time, Xue Yinsong turned and went home, and told his father about the situation: "I made an appointment with him to go to the county town tomorrow, do you want to bring anything?"

Father Xue thought about it: "If you want to buy seeds, you have to soak them in the past few days. How much wheat are you going to plant in 2 acres of land?"

"One mu. Wheat can only be ground into flour. Scholars and the others don't like to eat it. It can't be counted as the staple food. We still have to grow rice."

"Then half an acre is enough," said Father Xue, "Half an acre of wheat and half an acre of vegetables, and the other acre is irrigated with water to grow rice. You can buy half an acre of wheat seeds, and I will soak the seeds when I come back."

Xue Yinsong nodded, "What are you doing with the face?"

"I want to make some steamed stuffed buns," Father Xue said, "Don't you like the steamed stuffed buns I made before? This stuffed stuffed bun is very particular. You have to use the right amount of force for the noodles, so that the dough will be firm and powerful when eaten."

Xue Yinsong sat beside him and pouted his mouth: "Let's demonstrate." Father Xue took some noodles in a thick bowl, mixed them with cold water, added a pinch of salt and said: "Add some salt to make the noodles stronger. Of course, you can also use alkaline noodles, and the effect is similar.”

The rest is kneading the dough, which mainly depends on strength. Under the guidance of his father, Xue Yinsong rolled up his sleeves and kneaded the dough again and again, but his arms felt sore after a while: "I didn't expect this to be very strenuous."

"You feel tired after just kneading for a while?" The old man curled his lips: "I think back then..." "Don't keep talking about your time," Xue Yinsong interrupted him, "How much do you want to knead?"

"Until the dough feels hard, this one needs to be kneaded again. Have you added old yeast powder? Put some in, knead it after a while and put it in the basin to leaven the dough."

Xue Yinsong shook some old yeast powder as he said, kneaded it for a while and threw it into the basin to leaven the dough.Seeing him being lazy, the old man shook his head and said: "It's really not as good as the previous generation. The young people nowadays are all lazy, so it's not like we used to..." Xue Yinsong slapped his ass and slipped away when he heard the old revolutionary tune again. Find a scholar.

"What? You want to sleep with me tonight?" Little Xiucai bit his book and stared at him.

"Yes," Xue Yinsong replied bluntly, "Go and tell your son to let him sleep with my father in the future."

"No!" Xiao Xiucai immediately refused: "Your father will disagree." "I don't care what you want," Xue Yinsong threatened: "Or I will wait for him to sleep, and I will give him to my father, and then I will go to bed. That's fine, no trouble."

This is simply Sima Zhao's heart, Xiao Xiucai felt a headache, "Your father is still in the same room."

"I don't do anything, just sleep together," Xue Yinsong denied, "Hurry up and tell Changhui later, or I will come by myself at night."

Little Xiucai made a bitter face, even if he is willing to cooperate with him now, there is still a father Xue in this room, isn't there?Why is this person... so unable to wait?Isn't this the best of both worlds when Dad moves away after the Spring Festival?

"Didn't your father move out during the Spring Festival?" Xiao Xiucai stammered, his face flushed slightly: "Wouldn't it be more convenient to wait for him to leave?"

Xue Yinsong raised his eyebrows and said: "It's none of his business that I sleep with you. It's his business if he leaves, and it's my business that I sleep. Does it mean that if he doesn't leave, I will never sleep?"

The little scholar argued: "Anyway, he is not after the Spring Festival..."

"Then I'll go and tell Changhui," Xue Yinsong turned around and was about to leave. Little Xiucai thought what if he said something worse, immediately pulled him to take a deep breath and compromised: "I'll go, I'll go and talk."
