Because Gu Shuixiu gave birth to a son, Dong Chenghu asked Cuifu and the others to make a sumptuous dinner to celebrate that night. It just happened that it was not very hot at the moment, so they could drink a little more wine. The point is what Shen Shikang is most pleased with.
The next day, Dong Chenghu got up early in the morning and prepared the things to go out of the mountain, including the brown sugar and sea salt ordered by Gu Shuixiu, as well as some dried food in the mountains, as well as the chickens, ducks, geese and eggs raised by himself. In addition, because of Gu Shuixiu's production, Dong Shan has been catching fish these days, and there are a lot of fresh live fish at home, so Dong Chenghu also brought six of them out.
Dong Yi and Yang Yi were waiting at the gate of Cuizhu Mountain early in the morning, when they saw Dong Chenghu's shadow, they automatically shared the things on his back.
Dong Chenghu felt a lot more relaxed in an instant, and he walked a lot lighter.
In early February, the snow and ice in the mountains melted, and there was a wet feeling everywhere. Even if the sun was shining, it still felt cold and biting, especially when walking in some places where the sun could not shine and the ice and snow were thick. It is not an exaggeration to say that the spring is cold and the season is steep.
Fortunately, Dong Yi and Yang Yi practice martial arts all the year round. A single coat has to be worn for four seasons, so this kind of cold is nothing to him.
Several people quickly walked through the muddy mountains, hearing the sounds of insects and birds and the sound of gurgling water from time to time, and a few pheasants occasionally jumped from the bushes. In addition, three People also saw some snakes hanging on trees, whether they were dead or alive.
Dong Chenghu walked all the way, looking all the way, his brows wrinkled deeper and deeper, "Dong Yi, Brother Yang, do you feel that this year has just started spring, and there are more prey in the mountains."
The two nodded lightly, Dong Yi said solemnly: "It used to be lucky to see one or two pheasants at this time, but now we have met a dozen or so along the way. It's not that it's not easy for us to go hunting with things on our backs, but we're just afraid that these pheasants alone are enough to visit us."
Yang Yi heard the words, looked up at the tall tree helplessly, and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid there are not only more pheasants, but squirrels and birds are ten times more than before, I don't know whether to be happy or sad. , so many small animals, it is easy to recruit those big guys."
"That's not it! Now these are just what we have seen, I'm afraid there are still those roe deer and wild boars, it's nothing, I'm worried that there will be tigers and leopards like last year. It's really troublesome."
This is what Dong Chenghu is most worried about. He is not so worried about ordinary prey. After all, if there are more prey, the income of hunters will also increase, which is actually a good thing for hunters, but the premise is that these prey do not Including big guys like Tiger Bear.
"It seems that we really have to go into the mountain again to check, but this time I will go with Yang Yi, we won't attack them, just explore the facts and find out the situation Say it again."
Dong Yi thought about it for a long time and could only suggest this first. After all, the situation in the mountains is too complicated. If he cooperates with Yang Yi, the safety factor of the two will be higher, but if Dong Chenghu is brought along They are afraid that it will be inconvenient to run for their lives when encountering difficult problems.
Dong Chenghu knew Dong Yi's concerns and agreed without much thought.
After the group arrived at Caozi Village, Dong Chenghu took them to knock on the door of Gu's house, and it was Gu Daniu who opened the door.
Dong Chenghu asked strangely: "Da Niu, why are you still at home now, isn't the county office busy?"
Gu Daniu smiled and greeted Dong Chenghu and the others to enter the room. Seeing Yang Yi also coming, he immediately shouted into the room, "Yang Qiong, brother-in-law is here, come out quickly."
Dong Chenghu heard Gu Daniu's words and knew that Yang Qiong had not yet given birth, and couldn't help but laugh. When Gu Daniu and Yang Qiong got married, he once told him that he would rush to Gu Shuixiu gave birth to a child before her third child, so it would not always be the youngest. As a result, Gu Daniel got his wish to let Yang Qiong get pregnant before Gu Shuixiu. As a result, now Mr. Gu Shuixiu is here, and Yang Qiong has not moved. Not as good as God.
In the house, Yang Qiong and Zhao Shi heard Gu Daniu's voice, and appeared at the gate after a while, looking at them with smiles.
"Because Yang Qiong is about to give birth this time, and the spring plowing at home, I couldn't be too busy, so I took a long vacation from the county government and went back after Yang Qiong was born. In addition, you probably know Now, the insurgent army was defeated when they attacked Linhai County, and now they are retreating to Dongyang County. Now our Yongjia County has a strange atmosphere. , I want to take a long vacation and I will approve it soon, and it happens that I have two little servants who I just bought, and they can hold it for a while." Gu Daniu said with a chuckle as he walked.
The situation of the county government is extremely beneficial to him, at least it can let him drag Yang Qiong to give birth, and then return to the county government and work hard.
The group entered the main room after a while. Dong Chenghu asked Dong Yi and Yang Yi to unload the things on their backs and handed it over to Gu Daniu and Zhao.
Yang Qiong watched the fun on the side, seeing that Yang Yi and the others brought chickens, ducks, geese, eggs, or fish, she laughed and said, "Big sister doesn't keep these things for herself, Did you send it all to me?"
Yang Qiong was shocked and looked at these four old hens, four old female ducks, four large white geese, and a whole basket of eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs, all mixed together, and another basket It contains either sugar or salt, as well as those dry goods, plus the six fish they brought over, this... What are you trying to do?
Zhao took an inventory and frowned, "Chenghu, Shuixiu also needs to replenish her body during confinement. You brought all these things, what will Shuixiu eat then? "
The Zhao family knows that Cuizhu Mountain has raised many chickens, ducks and geese, but the family has a big business and there are so many servants in the Dong family. How can these things be so squandered?
"Mother-in-law, don't worry, Shuixiu has everything to eat at home. By the way, I'm here to tell you that Shuixiu gave birth yesterday and is another son. It was very smooth, and it took only half an hour to give birth after entering the delivery room. After giving birth, Shuixiu could go directly to the ground, and she was in good spirits.
That's how we were so happy. Shui Xiu said she didn't know if Daniel's daughter-in-law had given birth or not, so she specially asked me to send something over and ask me by the way. "
Dong Chenghu's happy expression almost cracked his mouth with laughter.
Zhao shi also looked happy when she heard the words. When she heard that Gu Shuixiu had a smooth production, she also let go of her heart. At this moment, she didn't feel that Dong Chenghu and the others were wasted, and she happily collected these things. Entering the kitchen, Yang Qiong's expected due date is only ten days, and these things will come in handy at that time, which will save her from going to the town to buy.
