Chapter 30

Xiuyao was sweating profusely, and asked, "Is there any cloth strip?"

Qi Feng hurriedly lifted up his skirt and tore off a piece of middle clothes. Seeing this, Xiuyao thought that it was all right. It seems that the novel really comes from life, so she quickly took it, and folded the medicine-padded veil Put it on top of the medicine and quickly wrap it up.

After bandaging, Xiuyao tied a beautiful bow on his shoulders, and then forced a smile: "Okay, that, this is your own medicine, I just apply it for you, so...well, I have to go back It's home." As he spoke, he lifted his foot and was about to leave.

Suddenly, Qi Feng slowly said behind her: "Is the braised pork delicious?"

Xiuyao was taken aback, then turned around and tried to smile, "It's delicious, it's really delicious, it's the best I've ever eaten in my life."

If it tastes good, keep your mouth shut, and when the words reach the tip of your tongue, it becomes, "You like it, I'll treat you to it next time."

And next time, is this a threat to her?Or is it also saying that she is not in danger this time?
He reached into his bosom, Xiuyao's heart twitched, could it be braised pork?But I didn't smell the fragrance, could it be—knife?
Remembering that a knife had sunk into the ground just now, she couldn't help but feel her legs go weak.But Qi Feng took out a small silver ingot worth five taels, and said a little embarrassedly: "I only have so much on me, don't feel too little."

ah?Still have money?Although I don't know how much it is, I also know that money is very precious in a family like theirs in the countryside.

Xiuyao shook her head vigorously, waved her hands and said, "No, no need, you have already paid the money before."

Qi Feng said: "That was the case before, one yard is equal to one yard." He said and threw the silver ingot into Xiuyao's arms.

Xiuyao hesitated for a moment, but still kept it, in case he didn't accept it, he felt that his mouth was not strict and worried.

Seeing her little movements, Qi Feng couldn't help but smile, and Xiuyao couldn't help but her eyes lit up when she saw her. This kid looks pretty when he smiles, but his expression is too cold.

She hurriedly said: "Well, I helped, you paid the money, we don't owe each other, right, the medicine belongs to you, I just help apply the medicine, and you gave the money yourself. Don't worry, I Turn around and forget, I haven't seen you, let alone tell anyone. I've been out for a long time, my mother should be worried that someone will come to me, I'd better go first. "

After she finished speaking, she didn't take a step immediately, she was waiting for his approval, she didn't dare to take risks.Although he is only a young man and his actual age is much younger than Xiuyao, but she has no intention of underestimating him.

His face was pale due to injury, blood loss and pain, his thin lips were pursed and straightened, and his smile just now seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Qi Feng glanced at her, "Why did you... um, come here?" He turned his head and looked, it was quite remote here, and he was confident that no one would come here.

Xiuyao laughed and said, "I ate too much, so I came to digest the food. I didn't know the way very well, so I went astray."

Qi Feng snorted, and said: "You go first, and I will treat you to braised pork later."

Xiuyao wailed in her heart, no, no, no need, I don’t need you, I can do it myself, but I dare not say it out loud, people’s threats have all been put down, but I don’t say my full name, and I don’t say where I live. Can't find my own.He also thought that the place where he ate braised pork for the first time was not far behind his village, so he must be able to find out.

With a lot of thoughts in her mind, she said honestly on the surface: "Okay, thank you, I'll go first." She waved her hand and gave him an undefended smile, then turned around and walked slowly , trying hard to suppress the beating heart, calmly, calmly...

Qi Feng slowly stuffed the cleaned Imperata root into his mouth and chewed carefully, looking at her slightly trembling legs, and the tightly packed little hands on her side, he couldn't help but smile again, such a small girl spends money I don't know if it's good to buy it or not, braised pork doesn't matter, anyway, she doesn't know herself, and she even covered herself up for herself in the haystack yesterday.

Although maybe she was afraid that she would be bad for them, but she seemed very smart.He stared at the past, the little girl suddenly stopped, looked back tentatively, and suddenly ran away.

After running on the right road and a safe place, Xiuyao stopped, lay down on a locust tree and gasped, checked her clothes, found no blood stains, then looked at her hands, even if there were blood stains, it was covered with herbal juice covered up.

She breathed a sigh of relief and walked forward slowly step by step, her legs were still trembling uncontrollably, it took a long time to recover, and she had already reached the foot of the village when she raised her eyes.

The village here is built on a high ground, a few miles away from the river embankment, and more than two feet higher than the river embankment, so even in a year of floods, the villages here are rarely submerged.

Xiuyao climbed up the stairs, and after climbing up, she lay down on the big rock on the roadside to rest her feet, panting heavily, thinking of the knife without a handle and the bloody wound, she felt guilty and weak.After resting for a while, she quickly trotted to Grandpa's house.

When he got home, Liu Fei happened to be outside, he said: "Yaoyao, why did you go? For a long time, my grandma and second aunt wondered if you were lost, and I asked me to look for it several times."

Xiuyao hurriedly said, "I'm going to pick flowers."

Liu Fei looked around in surprise and asked, "Where are the flowers?"

Xiuyao smiled awkwardly, "I fell and lost it." She said this and shook her hand, "Look at the wildflowers I picked and my hands are all blurred."

Liu Fei hurriedly led her to wash her hands, but she couldn't clean it even if she rubbed it vigorously, so she could only fade it off slowly.

When Xiuyao went back to the backyard, she would have to be scolded by Mrs. Liu, she just smiled and pretended that she just went to pick wild flowers for fun.

Li said with a smile: "Don't talk about the child, she is being manipulated like a calf all day long, but she has a free day, so it's not fun." Then she asked Xiuyao to eat snacks and stir-fry. Melon seeds, peanuts.

This time I came to see it for myself, and Xiuyao felt that her grandfather's family was actually a farmer with more than food and clothing, not a rich person, and they had to work day and night to obtain such conditions.As for the old Qin's family, they are really poor households below the standard line.

At night, Xiuyao gave all the money to Liu Shi, "Mother, this is the money."

Mrs. Liu glanced at it, and she didn't know how much Qi Feng gave at that time, she just thought it was a one-time payment, and exclaimed: "So much?" Bought a very strong cattle!The old Qin's family had no livestock for so many years because they had no money to buy them.

Mrs. Liu hesitated for a moment, and said: "Yaoyao, let's keep the money, in case something happens, we can pay it back."

Xiuyao nodded and handed the money to Mrs. Liu.Mrs. Liu thought for a while that there was no place to put it at home, so she asked Xiuyao to play, and she quietly looked for Mrs. Li.

She asked Mrs. Li to keep the money, and Mrs. Li was so shocked that she kept asking where the money came from.

Mrs. Li knew about the situation of the old Qin's family. He couldn't see a few coins throughout the year, so there was no money left.

Mrs. Liu had no choice but to talk about what happened on the road, and Mrs. Li was stunned, and said again: "Don't be a bandit somewhere, they didn't ask your name."

Mrs. Liu shook her head, while Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Minger asked your brother to take you home, but you can't leave by yourself."

Mrs. Liu hurriedly said that it didn't matter, nothing would happen in broad daylight, and repeatedly assured that it was not a bandit, it looked like someone was fighting in the village.

Only then did Mrs. Li feel relieved, and said: "If it's family fights, there are some. Giving so much money doesn't look like an ordinary family. Let your father quietly inquire about it later. If it's really about those big families, Such a movement can also be heard."

Mrs. Liu said: "Mother, it sounds like something happened in another village, and after chasing to Shahe Village, it may not be from Shahe Village. Let my father ask all the villagers in other villages quietly." With just a few households, it shouldn't be difficult to find out.

Staying for another night, Liu Shi took the children to leave early in the morning of the second day, and Liu Xu wanted them to stay for lunch before leaving.

Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "Play for a while, it's time for the child's mother to call."

Mrs. Li asked Mrs. Chen to pack a small bag for her daughter, which contained a few pieces of cloth, two packets of snacks, and a few bundles of thread spun by Liu Yun. The dense oiled paper bag mysteriously said: "This is for you and your sisters to add to the meal."

Xiuyao understood, seeing that the small bag was not too big, and inside it was probably a piece of meat, so she quickly took it and put it in the pocket of the armhole - the catkins sewed it on for her at night, and the cloth was better than the fabric of her clothes.

After leaving Yangliu Village, Mrs. Liu was a little nervous about meeting those people again, but luckily it was broad daylight and there were people everywhere, so she wasn't afraid of anything.

Fortunately, the road was calm and nothing happened, and there were farmers who had already started farming everywhere. Mrs. Liu led the child home safely all the way.

As soon as I got home, the children gathered around and asked what they had brought one by one.Except Mrs. Zhang, the adults are not at home and have gone out to work.

Mrs. Zhang looked at it, "Dayeniang, why did you come back? I'm going to farm."

Liu said: "Originally, he was going to come back after celebrating his grandma's birthday yesterday, but who knew that Yang Yang was making a fuss about eating 馉餷, and it was getting late after he was so busy. , it’s better to simply have dinner and breakfast at my mother’s house, and save food for the family.”

Zhang's complexion improved a bit, and he took the bag from Liu's hand, looked at it, although there was no food or meat, but there were two pieces of cloth, two packets of snacks and some odds and ends, so he smiled. "Why are your in-laws so polite and let you bring things back?"

Xiurong winked at Xiuyao, who didn't know, Nanny would do this, wanting something so much in her heart, and she had to say that she was polite, she acted as if she had to accept it.
