Qi Zhongyu raised his eyebrows, grabbed her soft and slender right hand, and asked casually, "What are you doing in the county?"

Lu Dongfu turned her head to look at her, and said: "I want to buy more cloth to embroider, my embroidery work has been honed and refined, when I spend some time embroidering a large piece of embroidery, maybe I can sell it for a few taels of silver. "

This is after she calculated the prices in Haozhou City and Siyuan County, she came to the conclusion that if she sold it in Haozhou City, which is more prosperous, a piece of embroidery work of medium and high quality can be sold for at least a dozen taels of silver, but in For Siyuan County, there will be a discount.

Qi Zhongyu rubbed her thumb and index finger, it was indeed rougher than other places, with a thick layer of calluses, and it was not that easy to embroider.

She responded, but understood the other party's thoughts very well. After all, this girl said that she wanted to support her family. She didn't care about the little money the other party earned. After all, she could support a little girl as an ordinary hunter.

It's just that people always have to find something to do for themselves, so as not to be too idle to think about it. Since this embroidery work is a skill that the other party is good at, and it can earn some money to support the family, it is also a good choice to pass the time.

She said, "Well, after dinner tomorrow morning, you will go to the county seat with me."

She lowered her eyes, feeling exhausted, last night she stayed up all night, trying to find the black bear, and finally found one, but it was a pregnant female black bear, she never shot pregnant animals , let the black bear go, and searched deeper in the mountains.

After walking a long distance, she finally found an adult black bear, and it was a male. She aimed a hidden weapon at the bear's right eye, killed the bear, and carried it out of the deep mountain again.

It's also fortunate that she came back at night, otherwise the villagers would gossip if they saw the black bear on their shoulders.

She doesn't like dealing with people very much, she finds it boring and troublesome, and she has a special body, so she doesn't want to get too close to people, lest she show her feet and reveal her identity.

She yawned and thought that after the yard was repaired, she would move to live in the mountains. Few outsiders went up there, and it was very quiet on weekdays.

As for Lu Dongfu, after a few days of contact, she knows very well that the other party is a simple and hardworking girl, and even if she knows her true gender, the other party will not spread it out, but if she knows that she is a woman, she will probably usher A big explosion.

She didn't want to think too much about things that had no shadow in the future, so she blinked her sleepy eyes, closed them and prepared to rest.

Hearing his yawn, Lu Dongfu knew that he was extremely tired these two days, so she said, "My husband has worked hard for two days, let's take a rest earlier, and I will wake him up and go to the county seat tomorrow morning. "

Qi Zhongyu replied in a daze, closed his eyes and seemed to fall asleep immediately.

Lu Dongfu wasn't too sleepy at first, but listening to the steady breathing in her ear, she relaxed her whole body. She turned around and moved closer to the other party, rubbing against the other party's cold body like the night before, her nose filled with coldness. It smelled good, and she also fell asleep.

After she fell asleep, Qi Zhongyu opened his eyes, gathered the clothes on his body, and fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning, Lu Dongfu quietly got up, put on her clothes, and went to the inner room of the next room to wash up. After casually tying up her hair, she went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

Thinking that her husband might sleep a little longer, she decided to light a fire to cook porridge, and serve it with a few side dishes.

But before her meal was ready, Qi Zhongyu woke up and changed her clothes. After washing, she went to the kitchen to see the little girl busy in the kitchen like a hardworking bee.

She stepped forward, rolled up her sleeves and said, "Do you want me to help?"

Lu Dongfu was stunned for a moment, remembering how the village chief's second uncle was worried about Qi Zhongyu yesterday, knowing that the other party was a complete layman in cooking, at most he could only grill prey, so she pursed her lips and smiled: "No, I will leave the kitchen to you." I'll take care of it, you don't have to worry about it."

Qi Zhongyu doesn't know anything about cooking, and his best skill is to barely make fried rice with eggs. He often doesn't know how to adjust the salinity, either the taste is bland or the taste is too strong. It's messed up.

Her eyes turned around in the kitchen, and when she saw the firewood piled up in the corner, she said: "Then I will have to help you with the cooking. I will split the firewood. Before the yard in the mountain is built , we have to live in this yard for a while, and you can use more firewood for cooking later.”

Lu Dongfu was very satisfied with the other party's thoughtfulness. You must know that in Daqi State, a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, even a man like the village head who loves his wife will not take care of the kitchen affairs, and Qi Zhongyu has this kind of heart and is willing to help Cracking firewood is already very good.

Lu Dongfu watched her carry a large pile of firewood lightly to the outside of the kitchen, took a machete and started splitting firewood.

Just as he was about to say that the food would be ready in a while, he saw Qi Zhongyu exerted his strength lightly, like a breeze blowing, and the firewood was shortened into two pieces from the middle.

If Lu Dongfu hadn't split some firewood himself yesterday, and had to use a lot of strength to forcefully split the firewood, he would have thought that the firewood was made of cotton.

She was once again refreshed by her husband's divine power, and stared blankly for a while before turning around and continuing to cook.

After the meals were ready, Qi Zhongyu also split all the firewood in the kitchen. It stands to reason that he would not need so much firewood if he only stayed for a few days. I just took it as a way to save trouble for my second uncle.

After they had breakfast together, Qi Zhongyu carried the huge black bear on his back, and together with Lu Dongfu knocked on the courtyard door of the second uncle's house, the head of the village next door.

The door was opened by the little boy who called Lu Dongfu to have dinner the day before yesterday. He was bouncing around to say hello to his uncle and aunt, but was frightened by the black bear on Qi Zhongyu's body and burst into tears.

He sat on the ground crying with a bang, causing the whole yard to hear his movements.

Qi Zhongyu was most afraid of seeing people cry, especially women and children, which gave her a headache.

She stepped forward to apologize, but frightened the child into crying louder. Fortunately, a boy who was slightly older than the child ran towards this side, holding a brush dipped in ink in his hand, His face was full of worry and uneasiness. He was the eldest son of Qi Anning, the eldest son of the Qi family, and the grandson of the third generation of the Qi family. His name was Qi Xingzhi.

He was practicing calligraphy in the study before, and when he heard his younger brother crying so much, he couldn't even put down his pen, so he ran out in a daze.

At first, I thought that my younger brother was being bullied, or that he was crying because he accidentally fell, but he didn't expect that his younger brother was sitting on the ground, pointing at the black bear with trembling fingers, and crying to him: "Brother...the monster is coming to eat children... "

Qi Xingzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he was a few years older than his younger brother, he was already twelve or thirteen years old, and his temper was more stable. Seeing this, he greeted Qi Zhongyu and Lu Dongfu first, and then helped his younger brother up.

He said helplessly and amusedly: "I told you to read less miscellaneous books about gods and weirdness, and read more about the way of saints, but if you don't listen, you will lose your face today. Wipe away your tears and read carefully." Now, it's not a monster, but a big black bear that my cousin hunted, and it's a beast that lives in the deep mountains of Yuenan Mountain."

His younger brother Qi Xingyuan was sobbing and wiped the tears on his cheeks with the back of his hand, the tears and snot smeared into a ball again, the older brother couldn't stand it any longer, so he took out a handkerchief to wipe his younger brother's face clean.

Qi Xingyuan's temper came and went quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he recovered from the fright, was ashamed of his fuss for a while, and happily leaned forward, not daring to get too close, and eagerly opened his big eyes. The big black bear sees the tail from the beginning, and the head from the tail.

Qi Zhongyu thought for a while, then simply threw the black bear to the ground, and said, "Look at it casually, don't be afraid, it is dead and won't bite, I'll go find my second uncle."

Lu Dongfu nodded to the two little boys and followed closely behind him.

Qi Anning, the eldest of the Qi family, is busy in the field today and is not at home. Only the sisters-in-law of the Qi family, Liao Shi and Yao Shi, taught two young girls in the inner courtyard after breakfast. I'm used to it, so I just sat there motionless.

When Qi Zhongyu and Lu Dongfu came over, they greeted the two elders. Yao Shi smiled and said: "Zhong Yu is back, your second uncle is busy in the study, you can go directly to him."

Qi Zhongyu thanked her, and Lu Dongfu stayed here to chat with Yao Shi and Liao Shi.

After learning from Lu Dongfu that Qi Zhongyu brought back a black bear from the mountains last night, Yao and Liao looked at each other, and Yao said, "I've heard of a blind bear in the mountains, but I've never seen it with my own eyes. Having been there, Zhong Yu really has the ability to call one himself."

The Liao family's youngest daughter, Qi Muxue, is only five years old. She looks as cute as a white dumpling. She tilted her head and asked curiously, "What does Xiong Xiazi look like? I've never seen it before."

Lu Dongfu said softly: "My husband carried the black bear and put it at the gate of the courtyard. I'm ashamed to say that it was the black bear that scared the child."

Liao said with a slight smile: "It's okay, my second son is a crybaby, and he will cry non-stop when he stumbles and stumbles. After he cries, he will forget about it. You don't have to worry about it."

Seeing the two granddaughters eagerly looking towards the courtyard gate, Mrs. Yao said, "Let's go there and see for ourselves what that blind man looks like."

The two little girls cheered, glanced at their mother, Liao Shi, and seeing that the other party blinked and agreed, they held hands and ran towards the gate of the courtyard in small steps.

Qi Xingyuan was lively and active. After the initial fear passed, he was only curious about the big black bear that died in front of him.

He poked the big black bear with his finger, and said to his brother foolishly: "Brother, it's hard, it's not as good as rhubarb to the touch."

Rhubarb is a dog raised by a farmer in the village. He always follows the little master on weekdays. When Qi Xingyuan was playing with the little master, Rhubarb would walk around at their feet. He was not afraid of strangers at all, and he could touch it whenever he wanted.

It was also the first time for Qi Xingzhi to see such a big prey, and he admired his cousin Qi Zhongyu who was able to hunt it. Hearing what his younger brother said, he hesitated to reach out and stroke a few, and then rubbed the thick skin fondly. hair.

When the two little sisters ran over, they were not scared to cry, but they didn't dare to get close to them, and they watched their brothers play eagerly.

Yao Shi and Liao Shi were a few steps behind, seeing the two boys climbing next to the black bear, they were quite frightened, even though they learned from Lu Dongfu that this thing had been killed, but such a big thing, just looking at it It's scary.

Liao's face turned pale, and said: "These two brats seem to have given too little homework. It was your cousin who hunted and sold it in the county town. Don't spoil the fur of the black bear."

The two children were very obedient, and quickly walked away from the black bear to share their feelings with the two girls, but the girl held her nose in disgust and said, "Don't come here, you stink."

The two boys had black lines on their faces. They pulled their clothes and smelled it. There was really a strange smell, probably from touching the bear just now.

Liao said: "Go to boil water and take a bath in a while, the smell is strong, remember to wash it several times."

The two children complied obediently, looked at each other, and burst out laughing.

During the time they were talking, Qi Changle also learned about this from Qi Zhongyu, and he didn't even care about his official business, he strode out of the study, hurriedly wanting to see what the blind bear in the mountains looks like.

Although he had seen Qi Zhongyu beat tigers before, and knew that Qi Zhongyu was extremely capable, but this time, when he saw the big black bear standing like a hill at the gate of the courtyard, he couldn't help gasping, and hissed: : "Zhong Yu, did you call this blind man back from the mountain?"

Qi Zhongyu nodded and said, "This bear is relatively big, so I think it should sell for more money."

Qi Changle choked, and cooperating with his nephew to choose prey only based on how much money they could sell, and didn't consider how dangerous it would be to single out a big black bear?

If it wasn't for his shame, he couldn't help but hold his chest. While marveling at his nephew's powerful abilities, he also put his worries about his nephew as a hunter in his stomach.

My nephew has such abilities, even in the deep mountains, there will be no accidents, let alone building a yard on the outermost halfway up the mountain.

He stepped forward and walked around the big black bear a few times, and said in admiration: "This big black bear has complete fur and it has just died. If it is sold in the county town, it will definitely sell for a good price, and it will also arouse everyone's enthusiasm. Pay attention, everyone in Siyuan County will know that Zhong Yu can not only go up the mountain to hunt tigers, but also hunt black bears."

However, the last thing Qi Zhongyu wants is to be noticed by others. She touched her nose guiltily, and thought: It seems that this time it is a bit more than that. She just wanted to solve the problem of money to build the house at once, but she didn't expect it to cause such a big problem. sensation.

She sighed, and planned to play it safe in the future, not to harm the large animals in the mountains, and wait for the wind to pass.
