C38

In the dark night, the bright and clear silver moonlight shrouded the entire Niu Village. This small and tranquil village dispelled the mysterious feeling brought about by the dark night.

Using the soft and beautiful moonlight, Qimu slowly approached the Ye Family main house. Her footsteps were very light, as if she was afraid of disturbing something, and in a corner not far from Ye Guangzong and Mrs. Lee's house, Qimu bent down and put down the heavy basket.

Lifting up a piece of cloth covered with a bamboo basket, Qimu took out the 'scalpel' she had bought today and a square cut chicken. She put the two things in her arms, covered the basket tightly, and pushed it into a dark and hidden corner. Only then did she give a slight smile, and looking at her masterpiece with satisfaction, she turned around and continued on her way to the main house.

If he brought such a 'valuable and precious item' to the main house, Mrs. Lee and Zhang Chuncao would … That group of shameless people saw that if they didn't cause some trouble, then the sun would probably rise from the west!

Also, he brought a basket of stuff with him and ended up giving half of it to that old man Ye Guangzong. The rest had to be for the "outsiders" in his mind. It was very possible that the old man would be angry after accepting the gift …

People of this era lived in the hands of a large family. Anything good would naturally never flow to the land of outsiders. It was best to do things in a more thorough manner, Qimu thought to herself.

In the courtyard of the Ye Family main house, I saw Ye Dazhuang lying leisurely on the rocking chair, bathing in the moonlight.

"Tian Fu threw the seedlings of the field women to catch, the children to pull out the seedlings of the children inserted.

The bamboo hat was a straw hat, the rain dripped from head to neck.

After calling the court to rest for a while, he lowered his head and did not answer.

The roots are not yet in place, and the chickens and ducklings are taken care of. "

She looked at the old man's back, and a smile appeared in her eyes as she thought to herself: I never thought that this old man who looks serious, and normally doesn't like to talk, would have such a hobby. Let alone it, his voice is so loud and full of emotion, and he is truly singing from the depths of his past.

Even her heart seemed to have been infected by the unyielding power of the peasants. Even her heart was beating more vigorously!

"Grandfather, grandfather."

After the old man sang a song, Qimu looked at his unsatisfied expression and immediately called out to him. She then walked up to him with quick steps.

"Ah?" Who? "So it's the second brother's Mu."

The old man turned his head and looked at Qimu, giving a kind smile. There was no trace of the unfathomable coldness and indifference he had towards the Second Room of the Ye Family.

Qimu's smile widened when she saw this. She simply placed the items in her embrace onto the old man's half-lying body before speaking in a leisurely manner:

"Grandfather, my parents told me to bring this to honor you, and a pot of wine as well!"

The old man was initially shocked by Qimu's sudden action. He then saw the item that was placed in his pocket and wrapped his arms around it. Upon hearing Qimu's words, he lowered his head to take a look.

"Good girl, I've troubled you. These two things are too heavy!" "That unfilial son knows that I just love to drink a few mouthfuls of wine. Hmph, and he even knows that you want to buy some meat and wine to honor me. I didn't raise him for nothing …"

Old Man Ye sat up and straightened his body. He held the 'Burning Knife' close to his nose and smelled it again and again. The fragrance of the wine made him unwittingly look intoxicated.

Qimu couldn't conceal the joy and happiness in her eyes when she saw him swearing about his cheap old man. She felt it was both funny and cute.

Originally, when Qimu saw that the old man had nothing else to say, she let out a sigh of relief and smiled, intending to say her goodbyes. She still had other places to go, but unexpectedly, the old man seemed to have suddenly awakened from a beautiful dream.

"Mu, where did your father get the money to buy it?" A few days ago, your mother and you asked for the doctor's money. It was all given to you by us, so how could a filial son like him have a single copper coin?! Say it! "

"Grandpa …"

Qimu slightly raised her head and looked directly at Old Master Ye. She smiled in a perfect and proper manner, and quickly concealed her original idea. She thought for a moment and was about to explain, but Old Master Ye stared at her with a sharp and scary look and said in an extremely serious manner:

"You have to tell your grandfather honestly. If that unfilial son did something he shouldn't have done, I can also take care of him. That way, you guys will have a good day, do you understand?"

Qimu's heart warmed up when she heard that. The depths of her eyes softened a lot. Old Master Ye was thinking for her little family. Otherwise, he would eat as much as he ate and drink as he drank. He had messed with her for nothing!

"Grandfather, what are you so worried about! "Father did not steal nor do anything bad to me, but you should know that my father is an honest and honest man.!"

"Let me tell you, a few days ago, I didn't have much to eat at home, so I went up the mountain to gather a lot of things." Let me tell you, a few days ago, I didn't have much to eat at home, so I went up the mountain to gather a lot of things.

"I didn't expect that I would really meet such a rich person. Maybe he was just feeling sorry for me when a rich person passed by and gave me some money to buy everything. That's why I have the money to buy wine and eat meat for grandpa!"

Qimu was not afraid of Old Master Ye's expression. She walked up to him with a smile and pulled on his sleeve, saying half-coquettishly and half-seriously.

"Really?"

Old Master Ye raised his eyebrows and asked. His expression softened a bit, as if he believed something.

"It's true! Or else, Grandpa will personally ask my parents!" Qimu said confidently.

"Mm …" "That's good, that's good. Girl, I don't know where you got your luck, what did you pick up from the mountain, to buy this wine and meat!"

Seeing that Old Master Ye was playing with her with a smile on his face, he opened the lid of the wine pot and started to drink while appreciating the starry sky. Qimu chatted with him for a while and then quickly took her basket to Aunt Liu's house.

Qimu lightly knocked on Aunt Wang's old wooden door. She knocked on it a few times, then stood still and waited, carefully listening for any activity inside. The ancients rested early, so she was afraid of disturbing their rest.

The door creaked open, revealing half of Aunt Wang's face. When she saw that it was Mu from next door, she opened the door with relief. Her face carried a bit of bitterness, but her tone was worried.

"Mu, it's so late. What's the matter?" Don't tell me your family got into trouble again? "Quickly tell Aunt."

Qimu smiled as she shook her head. She took out three skewers of candied fruits and a small piece of chicken from the basket, pushed it in front of Aunt Wang, and said,

"Aunt, don't worry. Ever since we separated that day, my family has been living a good life, and life has been very comfortable. Since my family has some good stuff, I have to hurry over to Aunt Xie!"

"Aunt, thank you for speaking up for me that day. Otherwise, I don't even know if that family will get a share!" These three candied fruits are for Ergou-zi to eat. This meat will nourish Aunt's body so that a fat child can be born! "

The Wang family's aunt was momentarily stunned. After looking at it for a long time, she finally spoke with a face full of disbelief:

"Mu, is your family rich? Why would there be such a thing? "

Qimu gently smiled and calmly said:

"Aunt, what are you talking about? What do you mean by not getting rich? "I just so happened to go to the town to sell some stuff. The rich and powerful families took pity on me and gave me some copper coins in exchange!"

"This, this …" Under the moonlight, Qimu saw Aunt Wang's hesitant expression. After a long while, Aunt Wang seemed to have made up her mind and stuffed her things into Qimu's basket. She said while gritting her teeth:

"I can't accept it, and it's not easy for you either. Keep it and eat it slowly, thank you so much Aunt."

Qimu saw this and sighed in her heart. In the past, she only knew that this Wang family's aunt was mean and sarcastic, but as a person she was straightforward and open with a sense of justice and injustice and a sense of loyalty to help. Today, she found out that the heavens had given her a good heart and sent free gifts to the door.

"Aunt, take it. Aunt, if you don't take it, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well in the future. It's not like I brought my entire family over to thank you, so why do you have to go through all this trouble?" "Aunt, don't worry. My family has been living quite well lately. They just sent some gifts to the main house. Aunty, quickly take them!"

"Aunt, if it's for the good of my family, don't tell anyone else. It would save you the trouble of bringing people to my house and turning everything upside down. Aunty, please take it quickly. My hands are sore from holding it for too long, please consider it as Aunt helping me!"

Qimu earnestly advised. Taking advantage of Aunt Wang's slightly relaxed expression, she stuffed it into her bosom. She hurriedly took a few steps back, stopping only after she was some distance away from Aunt Wang.

Aunt Wang lowered her head to look at the things in her arms. The candied fruits were very fragrant, and the meat even had a hint of a fishy smell. As she smelled it, she felt that it was the best smell in the world.

"Auntie thanks, thank you your family …"

When Qimu heard this, she chuckled and said gently,

"Aunt, it is you who is kind. If you are willing to help our family, there will be good rewards for good people …" "Aunt, it's late at night. I'll go back first. Aunt, you should get some rest as well."

"Alright, hurry up and go back. Be careful on the road and stop messing around …"

The Wang family's sister-in-law exhorted Qimu as usual. Qimu replied with a smile, then turned around and left.

Aunt Wang stood in front of the door and watched Qimu's back until she couldn't be seen at all. Then she used her sleeve to wipe the corners of her eyes, closed the door, and entered the house.

At the far corner, Qimu was leaning against the wall, expressionless. She peeked her eyes out and secretly watched as the man really closed the door before smiling faintly. If he really left, she still had to go to the next house, Aunt Lin's house.

"..."

Qimu gave Aunt Lin half a catty of meat and six skewers of candied fruits. Only then did Aunt Lin accept them, holding her hand as they thanked her profusely, causing Qimu's face to turn slightly red. Fortunately, it was night, otherwise, it would have been much more …

What he gave Aunt Lin and the old man were only half a catty of chicken, while what he gave Aunt Wang was two and a half taels of meat. It wasn't that Qimu was stingy, but there was always a difference between people who were close to each other.

However, the candied fruits were given to each family's child, each person being given three skewers. Qimu was not biased against anyone. The Wang family only had one male child, Second Gouzi, and the Lin family had two daughters. As a result, they gave six strings to each family.

"..."

After she finished all this, Qimu touched the last liquor in the basket, the 'burning knife', which was left for Doctor Faang. After she finished all this, Qimu touched the last liquor, 'burning knife', which was left for Doctor Faang.

On the other side, the man in blue that Qimu had met in the afternoon was holding a basket with a comical look on his face. On the other side, the man in blue that Qimu had met in the afternoon was holding a basket with a comical look on his face.
