Chapter 118 Take Hu Xiaoxing to the mountain
"Siwen, our family has no money to build a house." Hu Xiaoxing walked over a little embarrassedly and whispered beside her ear.
Li Siwen took her hand and blinked: "It's okay, I'll help you out, don't refuse, then you can sell yourself to my house and work for me!"
"Haha, just kidding, just go to my house and pay me back." Li Siwen took her hand and said affectionately.
Only then did the villagers know that this house was built for Hu Youtian's family.
"You Tian, your family is lucky, and someone actually paid for you to build a house." A middle-aged man in the crowd said enviously.
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Hu, who had just walked over, turned pale. What kind of idiot would actually pay for him to build a house? She didn't remember that Hu Youtian had such a generous relative.
Mrs. Hu squeezed into the crowd for a long time. Someone really wanted to build a house for Hu Youtian and her face turned black.
"Mom, what's going on, how does eldest brother know such a rich man?" Hu Rongrong said angrily, looking at the beautifully dressed girls in the crowd, even more jealous.
"I don't know, go home." Mrs. Hu waved her hand and left.
The scene of Mrs. Hu was naturally seen by many people in the village. This Mrs. Hu always wanted to press Hu Youtian on the head, but now I didn't expect that someone would help him, and I don't know how angry this old lady was.
"Siwen, thank you, we will give you the money back." Zheng Fang said excitedly, their family also wanted to build a house, but they had no money and no food, so they wanted to give it to the villagers. Although I can build a house for a meal, but I don’t even have a lot of food at home, I have never dared to build a house.
It’s okay to say that it’s not raining, but the house won’t be able to do it when it rains.
Now Siwen has brought someone to help her, and I am really grateful.
"Well, then Auntie can work with Xiao Xing in my house, and let Uncle come with you!" Li Siwen said softly.
Zheng Fang heard a few tears in the corners of her eyes: "Okay, thank you Siwen."
She really didn't know how to thank this girl, she would be willing to work for this girl for nothing.
Now this job is not easy to find, she remembers the kindness of this girl.
Zheng Fang moved out all the things in the house, and then Hu Youtian took everyone to start the demolition of wooden piles and thatched huts and began to build houses.
Li Siwen saw that everyone was busy, she took Hu Xiaoxing and Zheng Fang to go to the mountain.
If she gave them food directly, they would definitely not receive it. She might as well take them to the deep mountains to dig more wild vegetables, maybe even some wild yams or something.
Hu Xiaoxing and Zheng Fang originally had this plan, and now they are even more overjoyed to hear that Siwen is going too.
She used to go to the mountains every two days, but there was nothing to eat in the mountains, and the villagers had scooped up all the food that could be eaten. Now Siwen goes with her and it is different. Siwen is very strong, and she is also an expert at hunting. Don't worry about the danger if you go further inside.
Hu Xiaoxing was happy to go with her good girlfriends, and Zheng Fang felt that someone was protecting them.
On the mountain, Li Siwen frowned as she looked at the clods that had been dug around. It was balder than the mountain in her own village!
Zheng Fang said quickly: "Last month's heavy rain destroyed everyone's food. Many people in the village did not escape the disaster. There was not much food, so they hoped to dig some food in the mountains every day. "
Li Siwen felt even more uncomfortable when she heard this. She took over the body of the original owner, but she forgot her good girlfriend, but fortunately she remembered it.
There is time to take care of them.
"Then go inside and have a look." Li Siwen led them inside.
After walking more than 100 meters, it was like changing a mountain. It was not as bare as before. There were many weeds on the ground, and then there were more weeds.
Zheng Fang looked at the pile of wild vegetables and started digging with a shovel.
Hu Xiaoxing also squatted down with a shovel in front of her eyes. Sure enough, no one came to the mountains and there were plenty of wild vegetables.
Taking advantage of the two of them digging for wild vegetables, Li Siwen was looking for pheasants around here, and within a few minutes, she really found a nest of pheasants.
She picked up a few stones from the ground and quickly threw them at the pheasants. The pheasants were instantly knocked down, and the rest fluttered their wings and flew away in fright.
"Siwen, you caught a pheasant!" Hu Xiaoxing stood up when she heard the voice and saw Li Siwen walking with a pheasant, she said with a smile.
Li Siwen took the pheasant and jumped over the grass and came over, and threw the pheasant directly into the basket.
"There are some wild eggs over there, pick them up with me!" Li Siwen pointed to the pile of pheasants not far away.
Hu Xiaoxing heard that carrying a basket and followed her to pick up wild eggs. Zheng Fang stayed where she was and continued to dig wild vegetables. She wanted to take this opportunity to dig more, and she didn't know when she would come next time.
Now I dig some more and take them home to dry them, and soak some when I eat them.
Oh my God, a heavy rain ruined half a year of work for everyone!
Li Siwen stayed with them until five or six o'clock in the afternoon, and when it was getting dark, a few people hurried down the mountain.
Fortunately, Zheng Fang had the foresight to go up the mountain with not only a backpack but also a bag.
The three of them went down the mountain in large and small packages. It is good to live at the end of the village. No matter what you do, no one will find out.
Zheng Fang and the others did not encounter the village when they got home. Hu Youtian was full of curiosity when he saw them carrying such a thing: "What are you pretending to be? Where have you been?"
"Wild vegetables, Siwen took us to the mountain, and while she was with me, I dug more. The wild vegetables in the back mountain were all dug, so I went to the deep mountains. There were a lot of wild vegetables." Zheng Fang was excited. talking.
Hu Youtian had a dark face and was a little angry: "Naughty, there are so many wild beasts in the mountains, how dare you go there."
What should I do if something goes wrong, I even take other people's children there.
Zheng Fang was at a loss when she saw the man getting so angry: "Didn't I think that Siwen was here? That girl is very strong, and she is not afraid of beasts."
"You are fooling around, no matter how strong she is, she is still a child, why are you making fun of yourself, and you are so repaying people for helping us like this!" Hu Youtian trembled with anger.
Zheng Fang realized the seriousness of the matter, and immediately apologized: "I don't know, I just thought that there were plenty of wild vegetables in the back mountain. I thought that if she could dig more with her, let's eat more!"
"I won't do this in the future, don't be angry."
"Mom, what's wrong?" Hu Xiaoxing put the basket on the ground, looking at his father's bad temper, and seeing her mother's appearance, he asked curiously.
"Ask your mother to go." Hu Youtian said angrily, Siwen helped her family so much, and this woman was thinking about taking advantage of her, so she had no conscience.
Hu Xiaoxing looked at her mother curiously, but Zheng Fang was embarrassed to say it, just looked at her daughter and said, "It's okay, by the way, take all the pheasants to Siwen, and give them a bag of wild vegetables."
She really knew she was wrong. At that time, she didn't think about it too much, just thinking about having meals for a few days.
Now that he was scolded by a man, he has sobered up a lot.
Hu Xiaoxing immediately laughed when she heard it. Why did her mother think of herself together? She originally thought that the pheasant was caught by Siwen and took it away from her. It's not that much, it should be given to Siwen.
Li Siwen quickly shook her head when she heard that she was going to give her a pheasant: "No, I still can't finish eating the pheasant I caught before. I'll just take some wild vegetables and go."
