While Er Niu was thinking about how to sell the bristle brushes, he rolled up his sleeves to clean the pot, and saw that Xiao Guangbai, who was helping him to light the fire, looked a bit shriveled, and the child was obviously malnourished.Er Niu thought for a while and asked, "Guangjiao, do you think the pancakes and fires we make can be sold in the county?"

Guangjiao's hand that picked vegetables paused, "No way. The pancakes will be cold when they are brought to the county, and the vegetables inside will get tired after being burned."

Er Niu thought about it carefully, Zhangjia Village is more than 20 miles away from Maoling County, half of which is a mountain road, if you walk with something on your back, you will have to walk for at least an hour and a half to reach the county.

The most important thing is that only two people can walk side by side on the half-mile road leading to the outside of Zhangjia Village, and you have to be careful of the stones rolling down the mountain when walking on that small road... Thinking of Zhang Li's selling piglets every year Every now and then, the little piglets would be carried out in bamboo baskets, and Erniu would be heartbroken.

As soon as the sun goes down, no one dares to cross the path because of the stones rolling down the mountain.Some people in the village waited for the daylight to go to the county, otherwise, they would go over the mountains and bypass the dangerous path.

I heard the child ask, "Brother Er Niu, is the fire under the pot big enough?"

"That's enough." Er Niu absent-mindedly replied, and muttered to himself, after selling the pig hair brush, he would go to buy sulfur and saltpeter.However, Er Niu also knows that it is too early to think about this.

Seeing Xiao Guangbai staring at him making noodles with wide eyes, Er Niu smiled and said, "Tell me what you want to eat, and I will make it for you."

"Chicken." The child spit out these two words quickly and got a slap on the head, only to stare wide-angled, "I just ate it yesterday, why are you so greedy?"

Xiao Guangbai sniffed and said aggrievedly, "Brother Er Niu asked me."

"Brother Ganming will cook chicken for you." Er Niu said with a smile, "Not only will I cook it for you, but I will cook meat for you every day from now on."

"True!" The child's eyes lit up, and Er Niu's heart felt sore when he saw it, so he nodded vigorously, "Has Brother Er Niu ever lied?"

The child shook his head, "My mother said Erniu brother is the best young man in our village."

"That's right." Er Niu put down the dough in his hand, pinched the child's face, "But Guangbai has to promise me one thing first, okay?"

"What's the matter, tell me." Guangbai said.

Er Niu said, "Can't tell Third Aunt and Third Uncle that we plucked pig hairs today, will it work?"

"...No..." The child was about to shake his head when he said, "Chicken." The child nodded quickly.

Seeing this, Er Niu felt very tight in his chest.If it is said that he wanted to help Guangjiao's family get rid of poverty and become rich in order to do good deeds, now seeing the two brothers of Guangjiao like this, Er Niu sincerely wants to help them become rich.

No, just after lunch, Er Niu took out the box containing pig hair without taking a break, and poured the pig hair into a jar filled with hot water.

Seeing this, Wide Angle asked, "What is this for?"

"Clean up the skin and blood on the pig hair." Er Niu couldn't tell Guang Jiao what fermentation was, so he explained, "Don't let the jar get cold, and don't boil the water, remember."

"Then what are you doing?" Guangjiao asked Er Niu when he saw Er Niu walking into the house.

Er Niu said, "The pig hair needs to be warmed with hot water for a day and a night. I'll go to bed first, and I will watch it at night."

"Ah? Why are you so troublesome?" the wide-angle monster yelled, "Brother Er Niu, why don't you do this."

Er Niu stared, "You have to chew every bite of your meal, don't eat if you think it's troublesome."

"Haha..." Guangbai looked at Erniu with a smile when he saw his eldest brother being trained, "Erniu brother, go to sleep, I'll help you watch."

"Look!" Erniu pointed to Guangbai and said to Guangjiao, "You also learn from your brother!"

Guangjiao glared at the child sitting beside him, then drooped his head and said in a low voice, "I see."

Er Niu couldn't bear to say anything more, after all, Guangjiao had never seen a brush before, and no one in this world thought of making a brush out of hair.And I not only pulled out other people's pigs to become bald, but also ordered them to do this and that...

In this way, the two big and one small worked hard for three days, and finally got the pig hair done. At this time, Zhang Dalian also knew about the two cows and the wide angle plucking the pig hair.

The funny thing is, no matter how Er Niu explained it, Zhang Daliuan and his wife agreed that Wide Angle played with Er Niu to do this.

Erniu's heart, which had been replaced with scum cores, was sour and astringent, so that he immediately started making brushes, forgetting for a moment his three-acre beach and the lotus roots all over the river.

It is said that Erniu wanted to make brushes, but it was because the original owner's family was too poor, so he simply took out the money to buy other things.Er Niu didn't expect the small brush to make a fortune. He made brushes from all the pig hair he made this time, and he only made a round brush the size of a child's palm, a flat brush, and a five-inch long brush. elongated brushes.

Guangbai brushed his face with a flat brush, and the soft-haired child giggled and asked, "Brother Erniu, can this be sold for money?"

Erniu didn't know the situation in the county, so he was beating his heart, but seeing Guangjiao and Guangbai staring at him expectantly, "Of course I can sell it for money, we'll go there tomorrow!"

Just as Er Niu was running towards the county with a wide angle, a middle-aged man and woman sneaked into the boundary of Maoling County.

As soon as two country bumpkins enter the city, two eyes are not enough.When Guangjiao came, he heard what his mother said, and whispered in Er Niu's ear, "My mother told us to be careful of thieves, you must put the money away."

The corner of Er Niu's mouth curled up, "I didn't take any money."

"What?" Guangjiao opened his eyes, "Didn't take a single coin?" Er Niu nodded.Guang Jiao suddenly didn't know what to say, and really wanted to drag his arm back.

"Then what are we going to do now?" Guangjiao asked while covering his face.Returning to the market without taking a single coin... How embarrassing.

The original owner had been to Maoling County three times, and each time he came and went in a hurry. Erniu didn't have much impression of the county. Now Erniu is very satisfied with the bustling streets, and even more satisfied with the dazzling array of shops on both sides.

What does this mean? It means that Zhangjiacun is so poor only because the roads are impassable. It means that he will be able to sell pig hair brushes today.

So I asked, "Do you know where the largest grocery store in the county is?"

"My mother said that if we want to go, we will go to Qijia Woodenware Store." Guangjiao said, "My father said that the shopkeeper in Qijia's shop is a good person, no matter if you are rich or not, if you come to their shop, the shopkeeper will treat you well. "

Human beings, Erniu, couldn't believe that the shopkeeper was a person who didn't have any advantage in getting up early, so he immediately became interested in the Qijia woodware shop that Guangjiao was talking about, so he pushed Guangjiao to the front, "Lead the way, let's go to the Qijia shop!"

"Ah...ah..."

Er Niu just wanted to ask Wide Angle, what's your name?Turning his face away, he saw that he ran into someone else's child when he was pulling Erniu earlier.The good guy Er Niu hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, we didn't mean it." Then he stepped aside and let the woman holding the child go first.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the child grabbed Er Niu's hair, Er Niu's scalp hurt, and he was furious, and asked angrily, "Why are you like this, kid?"

"Daddy...Daddy..."

Erniu and Guangjiao, who were yelling a few times, were stunned for a moment, and the woman who was walking forward with the child in her arms paused and pushed forward with all her might.

With a flash of inspiration, Er Niu grabbed the child, raised his leg and kicked the woman to the ground. Seeing that the woman was about to get up, Er Niu kicked again.

Surprised by his repeated movements, he shouted, "Er Niu, what are you doing!"

Er Niu stuffed the child into Guang Jiao's arms, "Let go!"

Guangjiao didn't know who he was talking to, but the child let go of Er Niu's hair. Er Niu saw the woman yelling, "I've hit someone... I've hit someone..." Er Niu took off his shoe and put it in her mouth. Said, pressed her leg with one leg, pressed her arms with both hands, and looked at the crowd, "Hurry up and report to the police, this is a kidnapper!"

As soon as this remark was made, everyone was in an uproar, Er Niu caught a glimpse of a man turning around and running out in panic, and shouted, "Catch him quickly, they are in the same group!" Without thinking, he followed Er Niu's fingers to arrest people.

Since today is a big rally, there are people everywhere on the street. When they heard that there was a kidnapper, not to mention the people who went to the market, even the shops on both sides ran out to help arrest people.

In just one stick of incense, everyone arrived at the county government office.

The county magistrate is always idle every day. The biggest case he has solved in the two years since he took office is that a group of rogues in the city blackmailed the common people for five copper coins.

As soon as he heard that someone had caught the kidnapper, the county magistrate became excited, waved his arm, and changed his clothes!Wearing a pipe cap and official boots, the three classes of yamen servants said in unison, "Wei... Wu..." Guang Jiao almost knelt down.

Er Niu threw the person in his hand to the ground, and held the child back in his arms by Guang Jiao's arm, standing calmly in the center.

The county magistrate slapped the gavel and asked loudly, "Where is the kidnapper?"

Er Niu choked for breath, didn't he want to ask the answer first.Before Er Niu could open his mouth, the neighbors behind him said in one voice, "Master County Magistrate, these two people have already admitted, so lock them up quickly, we can't let them out to cause harm. people!"

The county magistrate was heartbroken, "Am I the county magistrate or are you the county magistrate?"

There was a silence in the yamen, and Er Niu finally found a chance to speak, "Return to my lord, the thing is like this, the villain met this child when he was walking on the road, and when the villain was apologizing to the child, the child grabbed the villain's body." The villain found out that the woman was acting suspiciously when the hair called my father, and thanks to the enthusiastic folks, the two kidnappers were caught."

Guangjiao wanted to say, you obviously caught this woman yourself, when you saw this woman, you stared at her, so Guangjiao subconsciously closed your mouth.

The county magistrate glanced at the two men with bruised noses and swollen faces, and flinched. Who the hell said that the people in Jiangnan are as gentle as the weather in Jiangnan... That's, that's not offending them.Fortunately, my lord, I am a good official with integrity.

Haoguan asked without thinking, "Is that child in your arms really your child?"

Er Niu raised his forehead, "My lord, the villain is 17 years old, this kid is at least three years old, the villain is not that powerful!"

As soon as his words fell, the onlookers burst into laughter.The county magistrate twitched his mouth, seeing that the evidence was convincing, and convicted the two kidnappers, but said, "Say, where did you steal the child from?"
