Chapter 140： foal

The latest website: "It's still early, you go to the fire and put the rice into the pot. My quilt cover is still a little bit short, so I'll go to sew first, so that he will have a quilt cover at night." done.

"It doesn't matter, he's strong and strong, and he's fine without a quilt." Zhou Cheng stopped him.

Pei Xiu didn't look back, and had already walked out of the main room, "It's just a little bit, soon, it will still be cold at night now."

The daughter-in-law did as she said. He accepted his fate and went to the kitchen to start a fire. It took a lot of effort to start a fire.

When Qiu Baize brought the children back to see him washing rice and cooking in the kitchen, he was stunned, "Is your father always like this? Zhou Cheng, I don't even know when you learned this new skill! I didn't expect you to have the potential to be a gang leader, hahahaha."

Zhou Cheng glanced sideways at someone who was laughing and didn't take it seriously. There is nothing to be ashamed of to do something for his daughter-in-law, help him or something.

Pei Xiu heard the voice outside and knew that they were back, so she quickly sewed the last few stitches out. Anyway, she's so familiar, she's not afraid of his jokes.

The children were afraid that his father would lose face and his mother would be embarrassed, so they hurriedly surrounded Qiu Baize and went out, arguing for him to teach them how to ride a horse.

"Go out and accompany them. Let me make it here." Pei Xiu picked up the ingredients she bought yesterday and the ingredients sent by Qiu Baize today. Appetizers.

Hearing the cheers coming from outside, Pei Xiu raised the corner of his mouth and shook his head silently. As long as Qiu Baize comes over, the children are very happy.

When all the dishes were on the table, and they didn't want to come in yet, Zhou Heng said unfinished: "Uncle Qiu, Hei Ji runs really fast, I'll reward him later and feed him more beans."

He smiled and nodded.

"Stop making a fuss, come over for dinner. Mother has something else to ask you to help with later." Seeing that they were still pestering Qiu Baize, Pei Xiu quickly spoke up.

Zhou Sheng ran over sensible and asked her what was going on.

"Let's talk after dinner, come quickly."

After eating, Pei Xiu sent a few children back to the house, and she also asked them to help write a letter to report safety, and hand it over to Qiu Baize tomorrow to let him help arrange the delivery. As soon as they heard this, they didn't think about Hei Ji, they had a lot to say to their friends.

At night, Zhou Cheng talked to Pei Xiu about his thoughts that were interrupted during the day. She thinks it's better not to toss, to be conservative and wait until the spring. , Now each kind of seed is enough to plant at least one mu of land, and they need a specific amount of yield per mu now, and then they can report it with confidence.

He also felt reasonable to hear his daughter-in-law say this, and the prince took them over so early, perhaps part of the reason was that he was afraid of leaking the news, worried that the seeds would be lost, and escorted them along with the seeds in advance. Be safe down there.

After he figured this out, he didn't bother anymore, and he was going to rest and recuperate for the past six months.

For the next period of time, he kept picking up firewood and chopping firewood to make traps. He came and went in the village every day. The villagers were also used to him chopping firewood in the mountains every morning and evening. , but at least occasionally when people greeted him, he would also nod his head.

The villagers are also used to his daughter-in-law coming to buy eggs every three days. At first, they only bought eggs from Aunt Zhang. Later, Aunt Zhang’s family was not enough for her consumption, so they helped introduce others. She didn't even know what everyone was muttering behind the scenes. Anyway, she was happy to welcome her to buy eggs, so they didn't have to sell them in the city, which saved a lot of effort.

I also know that the five generous children of their family have all been sent to school, and they are all envious of how rich they are, guessing if they are relatives of noble people. Every time she sees Pei Xiu, she has to ask a few questions from the side. She doesn't answer such personal conversations anyway, and directly changes the topic.

On this day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the school gave the children a day off so that they could have a reunion at home during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The children are looking forward to this day, because not only do they not have to go to school, they also have a big meal at home, and Uncle Qiu promised them a long time ago that they would send their foals. They look forward to the stars and the moon, wait early, look at the door dozens of times a day, and ask dozens of times why Uncle Qiu hasn't come yet?

Pei Xiu had calluses all over her ears, so she sent them all to the door to sit and wait, so that it was not enough to see them circling in the yard, and she had to bother her and listen to their nagging.

Finally, when the sun was about to go down, they saw Qiu Baize riding a horse and leading a small white horse, trotting over from a distance, and they ran up to meet them with excited screams.

Zhou Yong was very excited, "Uncle Qiu, is this the little pony you gave us?"

Zhou Heng looked at the foal with bright eyes: "Wow, it's so beautiful, it's white."

Zhou Shanhua walked around the little white horse heartily, Zhou Shan had already started to touch its head, the little white horse seemed to know their joy, and rubbed Zhou Shan's palm with his face.

Its response made Zhou Shan's face flush with excitement.

Huzi also wanted to touch the little white horse, but he was still obediently waiting beside Qiu Baize.

Qiu Baize didn't need him, so he sent him to play with the little white horse, "This is a little mare, very docile, you have to take good care of it, I'll let Zhou Cheng teach you how to ride. Take it in first, Wait until you give it a bath together and get close to it more so that it can carry you."

Everyone responded in unison, "Thank you Uncle Qiu."

There is a special horse shed in the yard~ Bring both horses in, and they can't wait to bathe the little white horse.

He was stopped by Pei Xiu, "I'll eat right away. If you wash the horse, you'll have to get wet for a while. After you've eaten and washed, you can also wash yourself."

They reluctantly walked back into the main room, Qiu Baize laughed, "Why are you in a hurry, they said they will send you off, it will be a long time in Japan, and they will not run away. There is such a sumptuous dish on the table today, eat it quickly and then go. . Otherwise, your mother will be angry, and your father will not teach you later."

They glanced at the silent father sitting on the main seat and knew that he was a black heart and would just sit down to eat just like Uncle Qiu said.

A few devoured it, eating like a war, not to mention Pei Xiu, Zhou Chengcheng couldn't stand it any longer, "Give me a good meal, or you will let Uncle Qiu bring the pony back."

They just got down to it.

Qiu Baize shook his head with a laugh, "I haven't grown up yet, I'm still a child. It's not enough to hone it."
