Druid's Country Retirement

Chapter 291 Settlement
Hand over the little golden monkey to Anna and Nannan, and let the two caogou village children, Wang and the bulldogs, familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment.

When Li Hongbing returned to the old house, there used to be two pots on the kitchen stove, one for cooking and the other for pig food. Now the pigs are raised on the meadow, just for the fighting dogs to cook.

Thirty catties of rice are steamed in a bag.

Taking advantage of the time between steaming rice, Shan Xing and Sha Wa took out all the meat stored in the refrigerator to defrost, cut into small pieces and threw them into the pot. Li Hongbing personally made a pot of braised pork.

It is said that dogs cannot eat food that is rich in oil and salt, but today is their first day in the door, and they should have a good meal.

The rice is steamed, and the braised pork comes out of the pan.

The more than 20 dogs must have no food bowls for them, so they simply took out the big bowls for clothes and vegetables at home.

After the meal was finished, the tired Li Hongbing was sweating profusely, looking at the seven big pots filled with rice and braised pork on the ground, he said to Shan Xing aggrieved.

"A meal of [-] catties of rice and [-] catties of meat, I can't afford it. This is going to make me a pauper!"

Shan Xing pursed her lips and snickered, "Brother is a good man."

A good card!
Li Hongbing shook his head, and said to the silly boy, "Go to them and call them back for dinner."

Sha Wa reluctantly looked away from the rice bowl, swallowed, and resolutely walked out of the old house.

When it reappeared, there was a neat line of fighting dogs behind it. Dahua's four wolf dogs rushed into the rice field first, and circled around the rice bowl a few times, knowing that this was food prepared for the new members of the family. I ran to my father and got down next to him.

The fighting dogs entered the yard, a little scared, looking cautious, for fear of stepping on a blade of grass.

"Come here for dinner, we have meat today!" Li Hongbing softly and gently pointed to the rice bowl on the ground.

The one-eared pit bull was the first to walk in the line, and stopped in front of a rice bowl. Looking at the hot rice and braised pork with an attractive aroma, his throat trembled a few times, and he turned his head and growled in a low voice.

Only then did the other fighting dogs dare to come forward and surround the rice bowl, but none of the dogs went to eat, but tilted their heads and looked at Li Hongbing.

"Eat, no one here will disturb you." Li Hongbing was inexplicably sad, knowing that this was a habit of being beaten in the farm.

The fighting dogs lowered their heads, took small mouthfuls at first, and then swallowed big mouthfuls, wishing that the second mouthful had already entered their mouths before the first mouthful could be chewed.

At this moment, the fighting dogs were wrapped in a warmth they had never experienced before.

While eating, weeping.

The first half of my life was spent in blood and cruelty, with unexpected twists in fate, but the second half of my life can enjoy peace and tranquility, and delicious food.

Seeing the tears of the dogs, Shan Xing couldn't help but her eyes turned red. Seeing them was like seeing her helplessness and pain in the past.

The silly boy walked to the well without saying a word, fetched several barrels of well water and put them next to the rice bowl.

"Eat slowly, Grandpa said eat fast, bite your tongue and drink water."

After eating, the fighting dogs left the old house and returned to the barn, lying on the grass, watching the sunset and enjoying the hard-won freedom.

Li Hongbing calmed down.

After telling the family, he went out alone and walked towards the village.

Not long after walking, footsteps sounded behind him, and when he looked back, it was actually the group of fighting dogs.

"You don't have to follow, go and play by yourself."

One ear shook his head and whimpered, and he still walked to Li Hongbing's side. The other fighting dogs were scattered around, surrounding him.

The impenetrable protection places a heavy burden on Li Hongbing.

I went to the village to visit the injured villagers by myself, and I didn't go to fight. Bringing more than 20 fighting dogs, let alone entering the village, scared people to death.

"It's really not necessary, you go back quickly." Li Hongbing persuaded again.

One ear turned its head and barked a few times, and the group of dogs turned away three times at a step, leaving behind a Dogo with a broken tail and a Rottweiler with one eye blind.

After persuading the three dogs not to return anything, Li Hongbing had no choice but to take them to the village.

When he entered the village, he first went to the house of Uncle Shaved, and when he saw Li Hongbing coming to the door, Uncle Shaved was very happy, but after entering the door, the three fighting dogs found a corner and lay down, staring straight at the stranger approaching Li Hongbing.

"Red Soldier, when did you come back?" Uncle Barber enthusiastically pulled Li Hongbing's arm. This time, Li Hongbing was able to bring his son and granddaughter back. Come here and kowtow to the grandfather, if it wasn't for the grandfather, how could you come back."

The two girls looked much better than they did in Shuanggou Village. They came up to Li Hongbing shyly, knelt down and kowtowed three times.

Li Hongbing smiled and took the three rings.

This kowtow must be accepted. First, the father and daughter can return to Caogou Village alive, and I have contributed a lot. Second, the father and daughter have settled in Caogou Village, and I have also contributed.

You must know that if there are three more people in the village, you can get more than 1 dividends per year, while other villagers will get less dividends.

Pulling up the two girls, Li Hongbing took out 1000 yuan from his pocket, and put 500 in each girl's hand.

"You can't do this, return it to the grandfather quickly. Stupid boy, you can take any money." Uncle Shaved hastily scolded.

The two girls were frightened and stood there, at a loss.

Hearing the quarrel in one ear, Gulu sat up, ran to Li Hongbing's side with the other two dogs, and growled fiercely at Uncle Shaved.

You must know that these fighting dogs have been trained, and those who can survive are the winners who fought to the death in the ring. If it is more aggressive than biting and fighting, the big flowers that grew up in the greenhouse fight with the fighting dogs, and it is really hard to say whether they will win or lose.

The uncle who shaved his head was startled by the roar of the fighting dog, and quickly hid behind his granddaughter with his arms around him, exclaiming, "Red Soldier, where did you get this dog? It's so fierce, it's even more powerful than Da Hua."

Li Hongbing patted one ear on the head, "It's okay, don't scare the kids, this is a dog I picked up, it won't bite anyone."

Wang!
Yi Er nodded, warned Uncle Shaved with fierce eyes, and brought his companion back to his original position to lie down.

"Master, this dog really dares to talk!" Shocked, the uncle who shaved his head praised the dog, and then asked his granddaughter to return the money to Li Hongbing.

"What do you pay back the money you gave out? Buy clothes for the children, and wear them when they go to school tomorrow!"

Li Hongbing knew the situation of Uncle Shaved’s house, and he lived in poverty all the time. Although he helped out in the vegetable field and earned some wages, those who are used to living a hard life will save money when they have money. They don’t take red envelopes themselves. The uncle who shaved his head really dared to let his granddaughter go to school in ragged clothes.

"Why don't you kowtow to your grandpa." The shaved uncle hesitated for a moment, accepting the money by default, then turned his head and asked his granddaughter to kowtow again.

Li Hongbing hurriedly stopped him, "I only have this little money on me, and I have no money to pay any more."

One word of interlude to beat the subject to get this matter over.

Li Hongbing went into the house to check Kangmei's injuries, gave him acupuncture again, and told Uncle Shaved.

"Take some time to catch some wood beetles, dry them with tiles, boil four of them a day, take two qian of water, and take rice wine orally, so that you can get better quickly. I'm leaving first, and I have to go to several houses later."

Shaved Uncle thanked repeatedly, and sent Li Hongbing to the gate, hesitating to speak.

Li Hongbing naturally understood what he wanted to say, and said with a smile, "I'll go to Huaizhong's house later, and talk about the settlement, don't worry."

Leaving Uncle Shaved's house, I turned around and walked outside the yard of Dakui's house, and I could smell the smell of meat from a long distance.

So Li Hongbing stood outside the gate and yelled into the yard.

"Dogs who eat meat don't call me Lao Tzu, so they can't tell the difference between big and small."

Wang!
One ear raised its head and yelled, wondering why he scolded himself for not stealing food.

"I'm not scolding you." Li Hongbing hurriedly explained, and then yelled into the door, "What's going on, I've already scolded you, and I still don't get out."

The next moment, a group of people appeared at the gate of the courtyard.

Dakui, Fusheng, Tiezhu, Laogen, Shuisheng, Li Hongqi, Xiucai, Shengli, Jianjun, except for Dakui who has no descendants, the others are father and son together.

"Uncle Hong Soldier, when will you return to the village, don't say anything."

"I heard someone swearing outside the wall, and I thought Shuanggou Village was here for revenge."

"Hurry up and come in, Fusheng has made a leg of cured pork, which has just been stewed."

Everyone was chattering, Li Hongbing walked into the yard swaggeringly with the expression of Lao Tzu being a village tyrant.

"Hey, whose dog is here to deliver delicious meat!" The junior Li Hongqi couldn't put his mouth in his mouth, and fell to the back. He saw three big dogs suddenly appearing at the door, and thought about all the dog owners in the village. Without these three big dogs, I thought it was a stray dog ​​that smelled meat.

With a grin, he took off his coat.

Li Hongqi is very experienced in stealing dogs, covering the dog's head, pinching the dog's neck, hammering the nose, three tricks, no matter how fierce the dog is, he can subdue it.

It's a pity that he was not facing a local dog, but an experienced fighting dog. He had just put on the gown, one ear retracted, and he dodged under the gown, kicked forward with his hind legs, and his whole body bumped into Li Hongqi, opening his mouth. Just bite down on the palm.

I'm in!

Thanks to Li Hongqi's quick reaction, he let go of his gown and retracted his hand.

Just hear a click.

It was the sound of teeth hitting teeth.

Li Hongqi let out a white sweat in fright.

Even if the first bite was missed, one ear immediately attacked the second round, jumped up, and bit Li Hongqi's neck.

Sure enough, every bite of a trained fighting dog is aimed at the vital point.

Seeing that Li Hongqi was about to be bitten, he stretched out a hand, grabbed Li Hongqi's collar and pulled it back, barely avoiding a broken throat.

"Stop." Li Hongbing's voice sounded.

One ear immediately stopped attacking, put away its fierce expression, and squatted obediently.

Li Hongqi was covered in cold sweat, sitting on the ground, his thoughts still stopped at the mouth just now.

Just a hair's breadth away, his throat was bitten off.

"Hongqi, are you alright?" Xiucai hurried to her side and asked.

Li Hongqi rubbed his throat with lingering fear, "I'm still alive, I'm still alive."

"Nonsense, why are you so short-handed?" Li Hongbing kicked him, and sighed to Dakui and the others who came back, "This is the fighting dog that Captain Xu entrusted me to rescue. I sent more than 20 of them in one go. I have to eat [-] catties of rice and [-] catties of meat, which can make me poor."

next moment.

Li Hongqi's fart seemed to be loaded with springs, and he jumped up, shaking Li Hongbing's arm almost coquettishly, and shouted in a long voice, "Brother!"

hiss!
A layer of goosebumps appeared on his arms, and Li Hongbing instantly felt like Li Kui was acting like a baby, he threw away Li Hongqi and took a few steps back.

"If you have something to say, get out of here."

Li Hongqi said coyly, "Well, I want a fighting dog, can I?"

That's it.

Li Hongbing pointed to the three fighting dogs squatting in front of the door, "Okay, as long as you have the ability, you can do both."

"Really!" Li Hongqi completely forgot that he was almost killed, walked up to one ear and squatted down, seductively afraid and excited.

"Man, how about going with my brother, from now on, you can eat delicious food and drink spicy food, and you will have a lot of fish and meat."

Without looking at him from either ear, he tilted his head to the other side.

Li Hongqi swished around, chattering like a mosquito, "I'll find you some beautiful wives, their hair color and figure are top-notch, they will definitely satisfy you."

Tired of listening to one ear, he simply lay down on the ground and covered his head with his front paws.

Li Hongqi was dumbfounded, and he didn't want to if he didn't want to. Covering his head counted for several reasons.

If you can't handle this one, then get another one. The big-boned dog next to him is also good.

As soon as he cast his eyes on the broken-tailed Dogo dog, the Dogo dog immediately covered its head with its front paws, the meaning was obvious, I couldn't hear what you said.

Before Li Hongqi went to look for the one-eyed dragon Rottweiler, Rottweiler showed his sharp teeth directly, saying that you dare to try to force a word.

Disappointed, Li Hongqi found Li Hongbing and complained. He really liked this kind of dog. It was tall and mighty, and it would definitely look good to take it out.

"Brother, help me get one, help me, at worst I'll give you a month's work for free."

"One month free? Really?" Li Hongbing raised his eyebrows.

"True than gold!" Li Hongqi nodded quickly.

Li Hongbing said with a smile, "Alright then, bring some meat tomorrow, and bring the hammer and saw."

It is understandable to bring meat, but what are you doing with a hammer and saw?
Is it to kill chickens to scare monkeys?
Li Hongqi was puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask, so he had no choice but to agree.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Dakui greeted, "Don't stand at the door, hurry into the yard, the pork legs are all stewed."

into the courtyard.

There is a large pot in the middle of the rice field, and the unique fragrance of bacon is gurgling in the pot, and the chairs are surrounded by the pot.

"Da Kui is too lazy to cook when he comes back, so he just sits around the pot and eats. Don't be disgusted, Uncle Red Soldier." Guifeng came out of the kitchen carrying a pot of radishes.

"What do you dislike, it's interesting to eat like this." Li Hongbing was not polite, went directly to the upper seat and sat down, and greeted, "You guys sit too!"

This is not Li Hongbing pretending to be X, but drinking in the countryside is like this. The highest seniority sits first, and then others can sit.

Seeing that Uncle Hongbing had sat down, the others hurriedly found a place to sit down.

Shuisheng picked up an earthenware pot from beside him, "Uncle Hongbing, this is an old pot that has been buried for five years, should you drink it hot or cold?"

"Let's make it hot, and work it up faster." Li Hongbing likes to drink hot baijiu. Heated baijiu is comfortable to drink, tastes good, and sobers up faster. Some people will freeze the baijiu to drink it clearer.

Row!
Shuisheng directly put the clay pot on the stove to heat it up. When the pot smelled faintly, he poured a large bowl in front of everyone.

For Li Hongqi's four juniors, the fathers were not stingy, they fought bravely in Shuanggou Village, and they were already qualified to drink at the table.
