Su Qiao was of small stature, carrying a pointed basket of bamboo shoots on his back, with a dozen small bamboo tubes hanging around his waist. He held a small hoe in one hand and a large rattan bag in the other.
When she walked from the east to the west of the village back to the Su family in the west of the village, she saw countless pairs of eyes staring at her in surprise along the way.
It was as if he had seen something incredible.
Su Qiao felt a little proud.
Change your image, start from this moment.
And look, if no one helps her promote her strength, can't she promote it herself
As soon as Su Qiao stepped into the courtyard, before he had time to say anything, he bumped into his second aunt who was running out in a hurry.
"Dani, you are finally back."
"Second Aunt, what's wrong?"
Su Qiao had a hunch that something had happened at home.
He quickly threw down the wicker bag in his hand and took off the backpack on his back.
"Where have you been, kid? You haven't been seen all morning. Everyone is out looking for you."
"I didn't go anywhere. I just went to the mountains to dig some herbs and wild vegetables."
Su Qiao answered as he took off the bamboo tube strung with rattan from his waist.
Liu looked down at the ground and was immediately shocked: "So many bamboo shoots?"
"Where did you get this?"
The bamboo forests nearby have been dug up by the villagers, and not even the bamboo shoots are left.
"Second Aunt, you haven't told me what happened yet."
Su Qiao walked to the well, bent down and pulled up a bucket of water, washed his hands and then washed his face.
Liu quickly responded: "Oh, yes, yes, someone from above is coming to our house, and your grandfather is asking you to go quickly."
Su Qiao was a little impatient: "Didn't someone come here yesterday?"
Why are you here again
Could it be the county magistrate or something like that, coming here to cause trouble
Su Qiao originally wanted to go directly to the main house, but after hearing what Xiao Si said, he paused and changed direction.
"Second Aunt, I'm going to go back to my room and change my clothes. These clothes are too dirty to be seen in public."
Liu also felt that it was not good for her to be like this, covered in mud: "Okay, hurry up."
Su Qiao learned from Xiao Si that the person who came this time was called Yuan Liu, and that he was the one who proposed to kill her and the old man last time, so she was no longer in a hurry.
I went to the yard to fetch a bucket of water, then went to the kitchen to get half a bucket of hot water, and took a leisurely bath.
She changed into a light blue, half-worn jacket and trousers, and loosely tied her half-dry hair on her head with a wooden hairpin.
I saw that my second brother Su Yihe had good craftsmanship yesterday, so I asked him to help make the wooden hairpin.
Although it is not made of good wood and the style is simple, it is still exquisite.
When Su Qiao slowly walked into the upper room, Xiaoliu, who was sitting at the table, was already getting impatient.
But considering his master's increasingly strange attitude, he held back from getting angry.
Apart from the old man who was drinking tea with her, there was only the old lady who was sitting on the kang, sewing shoe soles and not daring to say a word.
Su Qiao and the old man looked at each other tacitly, and then looked at the man on the other side.
The man was shorter and thinner than Yuan Wu who came last time, and his small eyes occasionally flashed with a gleam of light.
This person should be more lively than Yuan Wu.
As for who is smarter
Su Qiao felt that Yuan Wu was still the introverted one.
Seeing her, Xiao Liu stood up, bowed to him perfunctorily, and greeted him coldly:
"Miss Su, I'm Yuan Liu. My master wants to ask the old man to come over."
Su Qiao walked to the table and sat down. He poured himself a cup of tea and drank it. Then he glanced at him and said, "Just ask the old man to go. Why are you waiting for me?"
Humph, do you want to silence them
