On this day, Ye Tianyu and Liu Zhimo went to dig potatoes in the field. She was afraid that if she didn't dig them back, the potatoes would be damaged by freezing if it snowed after a while.
These are the potatoes she found with great difficulty. If they were all frozen and could not be made into seeds, then she would have nowhere to cry.
As soon as the two of them finished digging potatoes, Li Qingling ran over panting, "Sister...sister...do you know the shopkeeper of Fumanlou?"
"I know, what's the matter?"
"An uncle said that he is the shopkeeper of Fumanlou, and that he has urgent business with you." Seeing Li Qingling nodding, Li Qingling wanted to cry, "That... that... I told Zhi Yan that he was afraid that he was lying. Yes, don't let him sit in the house." This is miserable, offending the shopkeeper of Fumanlou, will it have any effect on my sister
Seeing Li Qingling's face about to cry or not, Li Qinglin comforted him with a smile and said it was all right.
She and Liu Zhimo put all the potatoes in a basket, and went back with a basket on their backs. As soon as they got back to the door of Liu's house, they saw the shopkeeper of Fumanlou.
Li Qingling walked forward with a smile and said hello, "Uncle shopkeeper, you are a rare visitor!" She patted Li Qingfeng on the head, "I'm sorry, my brothers didn't know you, so I didn't let you in, forgive me! "
The shopkeeper smiled like an Amitabha Buddha. He glanced at Li Qingling and said with a smile, "Miss Xiaoling's younger brothers are very smart and know how to run to call you secretly." He stood at the door and didn't see Li Qingling go out. Probably from the backyard.
It's really nice to see these little guys with clever faces.
The shopkeeper admired Li Qingling even more. It was really not easy to teach his younger brother so well when he had no father or mother.
Qingfeng Li blushed, said sorry to the shopkeeper, and ran into the house in a hurry.
If he knew that his sister really knew the shopkeeper, he wouldn't have left him at the door.
Li Qingling smiled, "Uncle the shopkeeper has won the prize, come in and sit down!" She waited for the shopkeeper of Fumanlou to walk in before she went in.
The shopkeeper took a look at the house, and then at Liu Zhimo, "Do you live together?" He already knew the situation of the two families from the investigation, but the specifics were not very clear.
When he came to Niutou Village, he always asked people along the way.
Li Qingling shook her head, pointed to the room next door, "That's my home, this is Brother Zhi Mo's home." After saying that, she suddenly remembered what she said to the shopkeeper for the first time, and she felt a little embarrassed , "Uncle shopkeeper, Brother Mo and I are a fiancée, our parents are gone, the first time I sold prey to you, I was afraid that people would stare at me, so I kept it in mind, I'm sorry!" She also didn't expect that the shopkeeper would come to her. If she knew she was back, she should have told him frankly last time, so as not to be exposed by him.
Although the shopkeeper already knew about it, he was very happy to see Li Qingling being so honest.
He laughed loudly, "I understand, I understand." There are no adults at home, so it's a good thing to be more vigilant.
Seeing that the shopkeeper really didn't mind, Li Qingling breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Liu Zhimo to take the shopkeeper into the room to sit while she went to boil water and make tea.
The shopkeeper also sat down, and Liu Zhirou ran out of the room on her short legs, followed by Ah Huang.
This frightened the shopkeeper, he stood up abruptly, looked at Ah Huang tremblingly, "This... this..." Is this really a tiger
Oh my god, I didn't expect what Li Qingling said to be true, she really had a tiger in her family.
He couldn't help swallowing, these children must be too courageous, even dare to raise a tiger.
"Rou Rou, take Ah Huang back, don't let him scare the guests." Liu Zhimo rubbed Liu Zhirou's little head helplessly, and told her.
Liu Zhirou tilted her head, looked at the shopkeeper, and said in a childish voice, "Ah Huang doesn't know how to bite, you don't have to be afraid!" Opinion, "Really, Ah Huang?"
Ah Huang hummed, it was in response to Liu Zhirou's words.
Liu Zhirou saw it, and immediately looked at the shopkeeper proudly, "Look, it's said that Ahuang won't bite people anymore, so don't be afraid." She ran to pat Ahuang on the head.
Ah Huang is so good, how could he bite? This uncle is too timid for such a big man.
The sweat on the shopkeeper's forehead was about to flow down. He saw Ah Huang nestled aside and didn't even look at him, so he sat down tremblingly again.
He now admires these children from the bottom of his heart, they are really amazing, the tiger listens to them, which makes him not know what to say.
"Ah Huang, go back to the room and sleep, be obedient." Liu Zhimo's fat Ah Huang would still scare the shopkeeper here, so he yelled at Ah Huang.
Ah Huang raised his eyelids, glanced at Liu Zhimo, turned his head silently, pointed his butt at Liu Zhimo, and refused to go back.
It has to protect them, how can it go back to the room? Ah Huang disagreed with Liu Zhimo's words.
Liu Zhimo: "..."
But the shopkeeper's eyes widened when he saw Ah Huang's intelligence, "It...he can really understand you, right?"
Liu Zhimo chuckled, "Ah Huang was just born a month ago, and his mother was bitten to death by Xiong Xiazi. Xiao Ling took pity on him, so he brought him back to raise him." He gave A Huang a gentle look, " I thought it had grown so big, and wanted it to go back to the jungle it belongs to. I sent it back last time, but unexpectedly, it sneaked back by itself. There was no other way but to keep raising it. "But since Ah Huang has been to Songshan, it will go to Songshan to find food by itself, and when it is full, it can come back with some prey in its mouth.
Hearing this, the shopkeeper clicked his tongue twice. No wonder the tiger followed them. It turned out that he was raised since he was a child. This Li Qingling has a really good heart. If he encountered such a thing, he would really dare not take this little tiger back to raise him. , this is a beast after all, if you are not careful, you will hurt people's lives.
"You have to be more careful. Don't let it appear in front of people casually. Although Ah Huang says it won't hurt people, everyone is afraid of it and can't tolerate it."
"Thank you for the shopkeeper's concern. We have already told the children in the family that we must not let the villagers know that we have Ah Huang at home, otherwise, Ah Huang will be in danger." Liu Zhimo nodded to the shopkeeper, "Fortunately We live at the foot of the mountain, a little far away from the villagers, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to raise it."
The shopkeeper took it very seriously, and said a few more words about Ah Huang to Liu Zhimo, and then changed the subject.
When Li Qingling came in after making tea, he saw Liu Zhimo chatting happily with the shopkeeper.
"What are you talking about? Are you talking so happily?" She pushed the tea in front of the shopkeeper, "Come on, uncle shopkeeper, try the tea I made! There is no other tea at home, only chrysanthemum tea dried by myself, I hope You don't mind." She was afraid that the children in the family would get angry, so she dried some chrysanthemums in the sun, and occasionally brewed some for them to drink to reduce their anger.
The shopkeeper picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly. In an instant, he felt that the scented tea was very sweet and full of fragrance in his mouth, which was delicious.
He nodded with a smile, and sighed in admiration, "This scented tea has passed through Miss Xiaolin's hands. It is different and delicious, even better than the Longjing tea I have ever had." This is not to be polite to Li Qinglin, he is sincere I think this scented tea is delicious.
"How can this chrysanthemum tea compare with Longjing tea? Uncle shopkeeper, you are just making me happy!" She just added some spiritual water, and the chrysanthemum tea tasted better, "If you like it, you can drink it later Take some back with you!"
"Then thank you Miss Xiaoling." The shopkeeper was not polite to Li Qingling either. He picked up the teacup and drank it slowly. After drinking one cup, he asked Li Qingling to pour him another cup.
After he drank two cups of chrysanthemum tea, he put down the teacup full of enthusiasm. He looked at Li Qingling and said, "Miss Xiaoling, I'm here today to ask you for help." Li Qingling really didn't lie to her, she took it The rabbit is really different from other rabbits. It tastes better than ordinary rabbits.
Customers who had eaten the rabbit meat sold by Li Qingling before, and wanted to eat it again, complained that it was not so delicious, and asked him if he had changed chefs.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have come to find Li Qingling in person and asked her to save him.
Li Qingling sat next to Liu Zhimo, and asked the shopkeeper, what is the emergency for her
She guessed in her heart why the shopkeeper came to her, but she still had to ask the shopkeeper.
"Miss Xiaoling, do you still sell rabbits at home? Since the customers who ate the rabbits you sold, their mouths have been spoiled, and they feel that other rabbit meat is not tasty, so I really..." The shopkeeper is really distressed!
"Uncle shopkeeper, I'm really sorry, all the rabbits in the house have been sold to you, and the rest are either pregnant female rabbits or male rabbits kept as breeding rabbits. They can't be sold." , she has already sold it, so there is no need for the shopkeeper to come to the door in person, "Uncle shopkeeper, come and see for yourself, and you will know whether what I said is true."
Fearing that the shopkeeper would not believe it, Li Qingling took the shopkeeper to the backyard to have a look. The shopkeeper had seen it with his own eyes before he completely gave up.
"When will this female rabbit be born?" The shopkeeper pointed to the female rabbit. He really wished that those female rabbits would give birth immediately, and the rabbits would grow up immediately, "Miss Xiaoling, you can raise more. It's a bit small!" Every time he had to wait so long, he would feel very frustrated.
"There is still half a month to give birth, and then it will only take a month to raise a big rabbit. Uncle shopkeeper, please wait patiently for another one and a half months!" Li Qingling also felt a little helpless. Her rabbit is growing fast, and it will be real sooner Become a demon, "I will slowly expand the number of rabbits, so that they won't run out of stock in the future."
The shopkeeper hummed, chatted with Li Qingling for a while, and left Niutou Village full of disappointment.
