Chapter 13 Chapter 12
This is an activity that belongs exclusively to the two of them.

Whenever Qi Bao'er goes out, she will receive a bunch of snacks. If you don't accept them, the folks in the village also have good intentions, but if you accept them, everyone's life is not easy.

But you can't stop Bao'er from going out for this reason, right?

So the old man Qi thought of a compromise. If he brought Qi Baoer to the village to "harvest" during the day and came back, he would take Qi Baoer out for a walk after dinner.

The cheapest kind of small caramel, which costs twenty or thirty yuan a catty, is always prepared at home.

When the grandpa and grandson go out at night, there will be a dozen or so in Qi Baoer's small pockets. When they meet old people or children, they will share a sweet mouth, which also satisfies their sticky Qi Baoer's blessing.

The grandpa and grandson will not take things from the villagers on this trip in the evening. Since Qi Baoer was able to go out, the old man Qi has always been like this, and the villagers have gotten used to it, so now everyone will meet their grandpa and grandson on the road after dinner No one will stuff things on them anymore.

On the contrary, the big guys tried their best to avoid them.

Most of the people in Qijia Village are simple and simple. Sugar is an expensive thing. The villagers have a simple idea. What they give to Qi Baoer are ordinary things in the field, which are worthless at all. Sugar is the cheapest thing. Seeds cost twenty cents a catty.

What's more, if they eat one more piece, Fuwa will eat one less. How can they compete with the lifesavers in the whole village for candy?

Even children are constantly reminded by adults at home.

"Uncle Lu brought Bao'er out to play."

A few meters away, an old woman in patched clothes greeted Mimi with a smile, and beside her was a boy about seven or eight years old who was dressed no better than the old woman, and was looking at Qi in the arms of the old man with bright eyes. boa.

When Qi Baoer heard the voice and looked over, he immediately hid behind the old woman like a frightened little rabbit.

"Yeah, take Bao'er out for a walk. Where is Daye's daughter-in-law taking Ban'er?"

"Ban'er's mother and his uncle went to the county seat early in the morning, and they haven't come back until now. I'll go to the entrance of the village to have a look."

The old woman is the daughter-in-law of Qi Daye who is two alleys away from the old man's house. If there is a poverty competition in the village, Qi Daye's family will be ranked No. 1.

Qi Daye is a craftsman and has a good carpenter. It is reasonable that his life should not be worse than others, but sometimes God just doesn't love people.

This woodworker has to go up the mountain to cut firewood for backup. 15 years ago, Qi Daye took over a business in a big winter and had to go up the mountain. As a result, he stumbled and broke his leg. What was even more unfortunate was that he went up the mountain alone. , the family got used to him going up the mountain for a day, until it got dark and he hadn't come back, so he begged the villagers to go into the mountain to find him.

A broken leg is difficult to treat, and after another day of freezing in the mountains, the two legs are completely useless.

Being exposed to the cold for a day is not only a problem with the legs, but also other problems with the body. No, in order to cure the great cause, their family not only sold the fields and land, but also borrowed everything they could.

More than ten years have passed, and he still owes the villagers no less than a hundred taels of silver.

Qi Daye has a son and a daughter, but the family has sold all their property and only a house that can barely shelter from the wind and rain. Where can they get the money to give them a wife and a dowry?

It just so happens that in Niuman Village, Daye’s daughter-in-law’s natal family, there are a pair of brothers and sisters without father and mother. Niuman Mountain is remote and lacks water. After being robbed, it was very difficult for the siblings to live, and they also had no hope of getting married.

As soon as the two families got together, they simply changed their relatives.

Fortunately, both of them are kind people, Daye's daughter-in-law does not waste her daughter-in-law, and Ban'erniang is also an honest and responsible person.

"That's why we should go and have a look. I guess they are reluctant to pay for the car and walk back."

The old man Qi looked up at the sky to see how the sun was setting. It should be around six o'clock in the afternoon.

There are two ox carts in the village that are occasionally used to carry people, one belongs to the patriarch's family, and the other belongs to the Niu family of a foreign family who came to the village more than ten years ago.

The two ox carts will return at [-] o'clock at the latest. Qijia Village is close to the county seat, and the ox cart will arrive in about half an hour.

At this time, the bullock carts have all returned as normal.

Daye's daughter-in-law kept walking with the old man Qi three or four meters away, "Ban'erniang is a solid-minded person, and she needs a copper coin to ride a bullock cart. In the morning, she took the bullock cart with her things, and she probably sold them when she came back." Now, she is reluctant to part with that penny again."

She is pleased that her daughter-in-law is sensible, but she also feels distressed when her daughter-in-law is too sensible.

While talking, Daye's daughter-in-law suddenly remembered the rumors that popped up in the afternoon. After looking around to make sure there was no one around, she asked in a low voice:

"Uncle Lu, has something strange happened to your family in the past two days?" The two families are close, so Daye's daughter-in-law asked directly without turning a corner.

Who is the old man Qi? As soon as he heard this, he knew that the so-called ghosts in his family must have spread in the village. Come.

"Daughter-in-law of Daye, I will not lie to you. Not long after Bao'er was born, she was spotted by an expert passing by our village and accepted as an apprentice. Isn't Bao'er sick a few days ago? I don't know her master. How did he know that he traveled thousands of miles to see Bao'er.

This afternoon, Master Bao'er went up the mountain to collect herbs and killed a pheasant for An Zi to bring back first, it was specially for Bao'er to strengthen his body.

It's not like I'm an old man who still speaks bad things about people. The wild chicken was called by Master Bao'er to eat for Bao'er, and no one in my family dares to catch it.

Qi He's family smelled it and rushed into my house with a whole family. Qi Quan also hit San Lang with a big bump on his head, and Qi He's family was about to beat An Zi.

It's not that Master Bao'er just came back from collecting herbs and saw that Master Bao'er was a master with real kung fu, and he slapped Qihe's family far away without showing his face. "

Daye's daughter-in-law was surprised, delighted and angry when she heard it, and she was more contemptuous of the old Li's family, "That family has no face and skin, so it should be taught a lesson."

She also gave the old man Qi a rather ruthless look, "How can the rogue uncle of the Qihe family let them in? You should call them out early."

Regarding the fact that Qi Baoer has an expert master, as expected, Daye's daughter-in-law accepted it very naturally. It seems that Qi Baoer should be looked at differently, and any good things that happen to her should be as they should be. .

Daye's daughter-in-law thought of the rumor in the village that there was a ghost in Uncle Lu's family. Now that I think about it, it is probably because the Qihe family didn't take advantage of it, so they talked around outside to ruin the reputation of Uncle Lu's family.

Thinking about it further, if it is true that Uncle Lu's family has ghosts, how can Uncle Lu's family still live in the village?
Damn it, Qihe's family is really in the dark.
