After dressing as a farmer's wife, I was spoiled

Chapter 55

Helpless, she had no choice but to take the eggs in the basket and put them in the kitchen.

Looking at the eggs in the basket, Xu Banxia remembered that he had taken wild eggs to hatch for the old hen at home. He didn't know if the chicks had hatched after so many days.

Thinking of this, Xu Banxia ran to the old hen's coop to have a look.

I saw that the shells of the wild eggs had been broken, and the chicks stayed under the old hen.

Xu Banxia was very excited when he saw it, and immediately ran to tell Qin and Liu Dashan the good news.

"Dad and mother! Our chicken has hatched!"

The two who heard the voice ran out quickly.

"Hatched?" Qin's face was full of joy.

Xu Banxia nodded. "Well, mother, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Well, let's go and have a look." Mrs. Qin walked towards the chicken coop, Liu Dashan saw this and hurriedly followed. "Xu Niang, wait for me, I'll go take a look too."

"It's not like you're a big man who can't keep up." Qin Shi walked ahead on her own.

Liu Dashan didn't speak either, and followed Qin to the chicken coop.

"Ah, I didn't expect all the dozen chicks to hatch." Qin was very happy.

"Xu Niang, we can kill the chicken and eat it when it grows up." Liu Dashan chuckled, he thought the pheasant chicken was really delicious.

Especially the pheasant meat made by Pinellia, it is delicious, even the soup is very delicious.

"Yes, from now on, our family will not be short of chicken." Qin couldn't help thinking that he would be able to eat chicken frequently in the future, and he didn't need to spend money to buy it.

"Is there no shortage of chicken?" Xu Banxia repeated silently after listening to what Qin said.

"No shortage... no shortage..." Ah, that's right, if she builds a chicken farm and gives wild eggs to the old hen to hatch chicks, and when the chicks grow up and lay wild eggs, they give them to the old hen Hatching, doesn't she have a lot of chicken that can't be eaten?

She can also sell wild eggs and raised pheasants in county towns or even prefectural cities, which is a lot of money.

The more Xu Banxia thought about it, the more excited she became, and her heart was full of fighting spirit!
She had already seen Xiaoqianqian waving to her.

She has to work hard to earn money to build a chicken farm!

Xu Banxia excitedly told Liu Dashan Qin about his desire to build a chicken farm. "Father, I plan to build a chicken farm in the future..."

After hearing what Ban Xia said, Liu Dashan and Qin could not restrain their excitement.

"Ban Xia, your idea is good!" Liu Dashan agreed very much.

Qin Shi also followed suit. "Yes, I think so too. Banxia, ​​mother supports you."

With support, Xu Banxia was very happy. "Thank you mother."

In the past two days, Xu Banxia and Liu Dashan fenced off the slope near the foot of the mountain to prevent the old hen from running up the mountain with her chicks.

Zhu Zi, who had a good time with Liu Wenxiu, hadn't seen Liu Wenxiu in the past two days, so he ran to the big room of the Liu family to look for him.

When Xu Banxia opened the door for him, Zhuzi was still panting. "Are you here to play with Wenxiu?"

Before Zhuzi could ask, Xu Banxia spoke out first.

Zhuzhu nodded. "Is Wenzi at home?"

"He's not here. He's gone to the school in the town to study, and he won't be back until three days later. Come and play with him then."

Zhuzi was surprised when he heard the news. He thought that what the villagers said was all lies, but he never thought it was true.

Wenxiu really went to school to study, so wouldn't he be able to come to him often to play.

After saying goodbye to Xu Banxia, ​​Zhuzi left feeling a little disappointed.

At this very moment, Yihe Academy.

Chief Yue Shan asked Liu Wenxiu, "Are you still used to it these two days?"

"Students are... still not used to it." He hadn't seen his parents and Xia Xia for two days, and he really wanted to go home and miss them so much.

But he knew that he couldn't go back.

"It's okay, it will be fine in a few more days." Yue Shanchang comforted him.

……

On the third day after Liu Wenxiu left home, Xu Banxia got up early in the morning and went up the mountain with crossbow arrows.

As before, she smeared an anesthetic on the arrow.

Thinking of being able to use the crossbow arrows soon, Xu Banxia couldn't help being excited and eager to try.

On the way up the mountain, Xu Banxia met Ali who was also going up the mountain. When Xu Banxia saw him, he simply said hello. "Brother Ali, what a coincidence, do you also go hunting in the mountains?"

"Well, why don't we go together? It's good to have a companion." Ali asked Ban Xia's opinion.

"Okay."

"Is that how you go hunting in the mountains?" Ali glanced at Xu Banxia, ​​only to see that she had a basket on her back and a small medicine hoe in her hand.

"How is it possible, I have a crossbow." It's just that she temporarily put the crossbow in the space, and it's inconvenient to take it out now.

"A crossbow? What's that?" Ali frowned slightly. He had never heard of a crossbow.

"Anyway, it's much better than bows and arrows." Xu Banxia said with a smile.

When Ali heard this, he couldn't help feeling a little interested. "Oh? When you say that, I want to see what the crossbow arrows you mentioned are like, and how much better they are than bows and arrows."

Xu Banxia smiled mysteriously. "Well, brother Ali will know in a while."

Ali saw that she didn't mean to say anything, so he didn't continue to ask. Anyway, she said it too, and she would know it in a while.

The two moved forward all the way, Ali walked in front and led the battle, and Xu Banxia followed behind.

On the way, the two were almost silent with each other, and there was not much communication.

Some are just Ali reminding Xu Banxia to be careful not to trip.

Because of Xu Banxia, ​​Ali didn't dare to take her too deep, but only reached the periphery of the deep forest.

This time when going up the mountain, Xu Banxia not only hunted larger prey, but also took care of the pheasant's nest, and took all the pheasant eggs back to the old hen to incubate the chicks.

At present, more chickens can be hatched temporarily and raised slowly. When she has money, she will build a chicken farm.

Ali stopped suddenly, and Xu Banxia, ​​who was thinking about something, almost bumped into Ali by accident.

"Brother Ali, why don't you go on?"

"Let's stop here. We'll be deep in the woods further on. I'm fine. The key is that it's too dangerous to take you with me." Ali explained.

"Actually..." She could go deep in the woods.

When she was in the modern world before, she had gone on an adventure in the jungle.

Although it was said that there were fierce and big men in the depths of this ancient forest, she was not too scared to go in.

"Actually what?" Ali turned and looked at Xu Banxia.

Xu Banxia shook his head. "nothing."

Forget it, it's around here.

She can also understand Ali, the main reason is that she is young and small, the key is still a little girl, Ali may be afraid that she will not be able to take care of her when she is in danger.

Anyway, for the sake of her safety, she couldn't say anything about moving forward.

"Brother Ali, I'll look around to see if there are any pheasants." After all, her main goal is pheasants. As for the big prey, it's not always so lucky to meet them.

Ali nodded and said, "Okay, then you should be careful, and remember to call me loudly if you need anything."

"Understood." Xu Banxia replied, and went to the other side with the basket on his back.

Finding a place covered by bushes, Xu Banxia took out the crossbow from the space.

Ali would look at Banxia from time to time to confirm that she was not in danger before retracting his gaze.

And Ali didn't let Banxia out of his sight.

Xu Banxia wandered around for a long time and didn't see any prey, so he wanted to go to the depths of the forest to have a look.

But Ali is nearby, so she can't go alone without making a sound. If Ali sees that she is gone and can't find anyone, it will not only worry him, but maybe he will run back to the village and call for someone to come and find her together. .

Thinking of this, Xu Banxia gave up the idea of ​​going deep in the forest.

She continued to wander around, just when Xu Banxia thought that there would be no harvest today, a rabbit jumped out.

Xu Banxia's eyes lit up involuntarily, he raised the crossbow arrow and pointed it at the rabbit, pulled the trigger and heard a "swoosh" sound, and hit the target with one blow.

The rabbit immediately fell to the ground, and Xu Banxia happily walked towards the rabbit.

However, the scene where Xu Banxia took out the crossbow and arrows to hunt the rabbit just now was captured by Ali.

He grew up so big, it was the first time he saw such a simple and powerful weapon.

Ali walked towards Xu Banxia, ​​"Banxia, ​​your weapon is quite powerful, can you lend me a look?"

Xu Banxia handed it to Ali without thinking. "Brother Ali, take a look at whatever you want."

Ali took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, the workmanship was ingenious, and he just saw that Banxia seemed to have pulled something, and the arrow flew out.

Just when Ali was about to touch the mechanism, Xu Banxia made a sound. "Brother Ali, be careful, the mechanism will be pulled lightly, and the arrow will fly out."

Ali withdrew his hand. "Is this the crossbow you mentioned?"

"correct."

"Where did it come from? Why have I never seen it before?" This weapon is really delicate and convenient.

"I got someone to do it."

"Did someone do it? Do you know weapons?" Ali looked at Xu Banxia suspiciously.

Looking at it, Xu Banxia felt very uncomfortable and a little imaginary for a moment.

"You may not believe it, I... I suddenly had a dream one day. I dreamed of this weapon. I thought it was pretty good, so I remembered what it looked like, and then I drew it and took it to someone else to make it. Come out." Xu Banxia quickly thought of a good excuse.

When he said it, his face didn't blush, his heart didn't beat, and he spoke nonsense in a serious manner.

Listening to Xu Banxia's explanation, Ali was a little dubious. "I didn't expect you to have such a dream."

Xu Banxia chuckled. "I never thought I'd dream about this."

After Ali returned the crossbow to Xu Banxia, ​​he went to wander around.

Seeing him walking away, Xu Banxia was relieved.

I almost don't know how to explain it.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and thought of an excuse.

After a morning on the mountain, Ali and Xu Banxia's harvest was not very good.

Ali hunted two pheasants, and Xu Banxia hunted a rabbit with a nest of wild eggs.

There are only five wild eggs. Although it is a little small, Xu Banxia is still very happy.

Suddenly, a rumbling thunder pierced the sky.

Xu Banxia looked up at the sky, there were dark clouds, it looked like it was going to rain.

"Brother Ali, let's go down the mountain quickly. It's going to rain, and I don't know if we can get back to the village before going down the mountain."

Ali frowned and nodded. "Well, let's go quickly."

Then, carrying the prey, the two hurried down the mountain.

There was a burst of thunder, and Xu Banxia was so anxious that he wanted to fly back home.

Going down the mountain is always faster than going up the mountain, but when the two of them arrived at the village after going down the mountain, the rain fell down with a splash.

The rain was so heavy that the two of them were drowned instantly.

The rain blurred his vision, Xu Banxia wiped his face with his hand, and soon he couldn't see the road again.

The speed of the two was also much faster, and when they reached the fork in the road, they parted ways.

The big house of the Liu family, Qin Shi and Liu Dashan watched the pouring rain, and began to worry about Xu Banxia in their hearts.

"I don't know where the child Banxia went early in the morning, and I didn't see her when we came together."

Qin Shi stood under the eaves and watched the heavy rain, feeling uneasy all over.

"It's raining so hard, I don't know if Banxia has been wet by the rain."

"Xuniang, you said that Banxia...would she go to the mountains early in the morning? She used to get up early, and almost always went to the mountains. Will she go today?"

Liu Dashan couldn't help but think of Xu Banxia's frequent waking up early to go up the mountain.

When Qin Shi heard Liu Dashan's words, she became more worried and looked sad.

"If you say that, I'm afraid it's possible. I don't know if Banxia is still on the mountain at the moment. You said that if she is still on the mountain, doesn't she even have a place to hide from the rain, and will she encounter any danger? ?”

The more Qin thought about it, the more worried she became, and she couldn't stand up anymore.

If it wasn't for the heavy rain, I would have rushed out of the house and up the mountain to find someone.

"Dashan, otherwise... let's go out and look for it? What if a girl in Banxia is in danger? And it's raining so hard."

"Xu Niang, I know you are worried about Pinellia, but your body is not completely healed yet, so you can't catch a cold in the rain." Liu Dashan persuaded Qin, worried that she would go to someone on impulse.

"But I... I'm worried about Pinellia. Why do you think she went to the mountain again when she was doing well? Our family's life is much better now than before. The mountain is so dangerous, and she often runs there."

Liu Dashan was also in a hurry, he sighed heavily.

"In the final analysis, Banxia is still for this family. She is so small and thin. She has to go hunting in the mountains to sell money, give subsidies to the family, so that the family can eat good food. I am really useless. .”

As he spoke, Liu Dashan blamed himself more and more.

Just when the two were in a hurry and were looking for the coir raincoat, the door was pushed open.

When Liu Dashan and Qin's family heard the movement, they turned their eyes to the gate.

They only saw a drenched person running towards them, and when the person got closer, Liu Dashan and Qin Shi could see who it was, and the big stone hanging in their hearts fell to the ground instantly.

Xu Banxia threw the rabbit casually to the ground, and then hurriedly put down the basket.

"Ban Xia, you are finally back. Your father and I are almost worried to death at home." Seeing that the man came back safely, Qin was so excited that he almost cried.
