Chapter 91： come again

He had been working on the draft for a long time, but it didn't come in handy. He was mad at him, and he was deceived again. He vowed to ignore Zhou Yong tomorrow. Who knows, he still underestimated how cheeky he was.

"You didn't bring a hundred pieces of knife paper with you today, remember when you go back, you're serious about what you say, right?" Those suspicious little eyes made him want to beat him with hatred.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I remember, I didn't forget, I won't forget..."

After the fifty dances, the two of them were no longer in the mood to quarrel, so they wanted to lie down on the ground to rest for a while, and Zhou Cheng didn't care about them. He went to the neighborhood for a stroll. He remembered that at this time of year, there were several sweet and sour black and red fruit trees nearby. The fruits were red juice when bitten, sweet and sour. He looked for it first, stepped on it in advance, and when he went back, he could pick a basket and give it to his daughter-in-law to taste.

I didn’t know about it last year, but I picked it up when I saw it, and only found out when I went back a few days later that it was crushed and couldn’t be eaten, so I had to throw it away. This year, he learned to be good, pick a little to eat first, and then come back and pass by here and then count it off.

After the two had rested enough, they found that Zhou Cheng hadn't come back, so they planned to look around nearby, but just a few steps away, they saw a pheasant flying low in front of them. The two eyes lit up, and they shush each other in surprise, each pulling their own bows.

Looking at the pose is still the same, let people look forward to it! As a result, one shot crookedly, another arrow fell halfway, and the pheasant clucked and flew in fright. When Zhou Cheng came back, he saw that he could shoot arrows in one go without any need to aim.

Zhou Yi can see Uncle Zhou shooting arrows every day, but he is aiming at the handle. The first time he saw Uncle Zhou so charming, he shot through the wings of a pheasant as soon as he shot it out, making it live a few more days. , may be able to persist to go back.

Zhou Yong doesn't think it's uncommon anymore. His father shoots both arrows and draws a bow from behind. It's just a trifle.

The two of them ran up to pick them up, wanting to put them in their backpacks. Zhou Cheng stepped forward to grab it and put it in his back basket, "Each one of them has his own."

"Okay." The two of them glanced at the back basket greedily, and continued to stride forward.

The eldest was not at home, and the remaining three felt like eggplants beaten by frost, and they couldn't lift themselves up again. Naughty and mischievous are missing a leader. On the first night, Zhou Heng asked when the eldest brother and father would come back.

Early the next morning, a few of them stayed in bed. It was rare that their father was not at home for the next few days. They didn't want to get up. Too tight.

As soon as she sent the child away, she heard the noisy voices in the village, which seemed to be collecting dried bamboo shoots from a distance. She deliberately stood at the door and listened for a while, and she was sure that she heard it right, that someone was collecting dried bamboo shoots.

Seeing Li Chunhua hurried home next door, she ran out in a hurry, and took a large basket of bamboo shoots, but she didn't even have time to look at her. You know, as long as you see it at ordinary times, you will be scorned by others.

She was also a little curious and followed up to take a look. I saw a large group of villagers surrounded by a big tree, making noises, and all of them brought dried bamboo shoots. I heard someone shouting in the crowd: "Everyone line up, you can get as much as you have dried bamboo shoots, everyone, don't worry, come one by one.

"Which grocery store is this, or a restaurant, with such a big deal, how much is there?" Pei Xiu curiously asked the woman standing beside him.

"I don't know either. I heard that whose relatives knew that our village had a lot of dried bamboo shoots, and came here to collect them. I didn't expect this stuff to be quite valuable. It's three cents a pound, and no one in this family has dug it back. I have a little stock in the sun. I would never eat it if I knew it earlier, and keep the money for selling it. Oh, this intestine is regretful. Zhou Cheng’s wife, you dug it first, and it has been sunburned a lot? Hurry home and get it, After passing this village, the shop may not be there anymore." The woman clapped her thighs after speaking.

"I don't have much left, so I just dug a wave and didn't dig it up. I've almost finished eating it after so long. If I knew it earlier, I would have saved a little more and didn't eat it." Pei Xiu said half-truth, in fact She basks a lot, but it's so cheap for three cents a pound, she might as well eat it herself and sell it.

She watched from a distance as everyone was lining up for purchases, and people kept joining the queue, and there were people who turned around with smiles after they sold out. Pei Xiu's heart was moving. The two of them didn't look like the people in the town. Are bamboo shoots so popular outside now that they need to go to such a remote place to buy them.

There are no such seasonal things on the mountain now, so I can only buy sun-dried ones. The whole family likes them very much. She doesn't plan to sell them.

As soon as she walked to the door of the house, she heard the sound of horses' hooves behind her. She turned around and saw that she was surprised but expected. It took so long for the letter to be sent out, and there should have been a reply long ago.

"Uh... brother and sister, we meet again." Qiu Baize stopped in front of him, got off his horse and clasped his fists in a bow.

"Master Qiu is very polite, I'm the only woman at home, I'm sorry for the poor reception, I can't invite the adults in for a cup of tea." Pei Xiu didn't know how ancient women should return the ceremony, so she could only smile awkwardly.

"Is Zhou Cheng not at home? Where are the boys?" Qiu Baize didn't mind either. People who practice martial arts are not so particular about it.

"He took the eldest into the mountain, and the second and third, as well as Zhou Shan, went to school~ Well, it's a coincidence that I came here, I don't know how many days he has been in the mountain, but some say The return period is over?" Qiu Baize frowned slightly, he was afraid that he couldn't wait too long, the prince was still waiting for him to answer.

"It's very unfortunate. They just left yesterday. He didn't say the return date, but he shouldn't be away for too many days. He values ​​crops now." Pei Xiu was a little hesitant to take him to see it, she also understood The purpose of his trip. But in ancient times, men and women were more defensive, and she was the only one at home. It was not suitable for her to take him to the backyard, or to the back hillside. If you were alone, if you showed it to others, you would be gossiped.

Qiu Baize also thought about this layer, and felt it was a bit difficult to do. After thinking about it, he said, "Is the place where you grow more private?"

Pei Xiu nodded, that's why it's not easy to take him there. Although someone was collecting bamboo shoots when he entered the village, which diverted a lot of attention, there were still people who saw that tall horses were more eye-catching, and now they are far away. Some people look here from time to time.

Fortunately, he was not a stranger. Zhou Yong had attracted the whole village on horseback before, and everyone had seen Qiu Baize and knew that he was Zhou Cheng's friend. There is nothing wrong with their open and above-mentioned words, but if they secretly leave and go to the back hillside, who knows what they can make up their minds.
