C58 Keep Warm and Happy Days

After holding onto the oil lamp for a while, Yang Liulang asked Hemai: "Hemai, do you still remember where you placed the saltpeter?"

Hemai thought for a while, "It's not in the other rooms? "Could it be in the kitchen?"

She was about to lower her head and turn around when she suddenly jumped in fright. "That rock …"

Last time when Yang Liulang said that the stone could not be placed in the kitchen, he placed it in the big pot in the room.

After... Hemai took out the big pot to take care of Liuer Guy, then...

She casually placed it on top of the pile of firewood …

Hemai's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously jumped two steps back, "It can't be in the stove, right?"

"..."

"..."

The saltpeter was indeed in the kitchen, but it was not in Hemai's house, it was in the Mrs Dong's house.

That night, Xu Jiang himself had just cooked a pot of noodles at home, when he was called away by the older son of the Mrs Dong who had rushed over.

Xu Jiang went to treat it, and after looking it over, other than the flesh that was damaged, it did not seem to be too bad, so he opened up a few sets of herbs.

After warning them for a few more things to take care of, he was about to leave, when he saw that the Mrs Dong family did not have any intentions of giving him any medical fees.

The eldest son of the Mrs Dong acted like she did not hear anything as she squatted in the corner. The second son had not shown himself in the kitchen since Xu Jiang came over.

Old Man Dong was half crippled now, and couldn't even take care of himself, much less take care of Mrs Dong who was groaning on the brick bed.

Mrs Dong laid on the bed moaning weakly with a dark and bloodstained face, "Hey, Doctor Xu, look at the situation in our family. The family of six all pointed at my old woman by herself, eh …"

Xu Jiang waved his sleeves, and replied lazily: "Then just lie on the brick bed. He was in so much pain that he applied a handful of Guanyin dirt to it. This trip here will be treated as a kindness and I won't accept your medical fees! "

With that, Xu Jiang covered his nose and walked out of the house. The smell of gunpowder had not dispersed throughout the house, and it was fortunate that his entire family was squatting inside, not afraid of choking to death!

When the two daughter-in-law in charge of Mrs Dong heard that they did not accept payment, it was as if they had received amnesty!

The two daughter-in-law hurriedly swept a handful of Guanyin soil and called a man to apply the medicine. The taste of Guanyin dirt sprinkling onto their faces wasn't pleasant. Amidst the howls of the Mrs Dong Wolves, their son and daughter-in-law hurriedly applied medicine on the old lady. Following that, they squatted down in the corner and waited for the old lady to get up to cook!

Most of the villagers knew that the Mrs Dong's house had been bombed, and all sorts of things were being said.

Some said that the Mrs Dong was too lazy to continue watching, that even the Kitchen King could not stand watching them do it!

When Mrs Dong was at home, they could still start a fire. If they were not at home, this family of old and young could go to their neighbors to borrow a hot and cold fire. When the weather was cold, they would run outside, rather than lying in the sun and cutting a bundle of firewood! He had truly offended the Kitchen King!

After this incident, the villagers who usually interacted with the Mrs Dong all revealed expressions of schadenfreude.

This family's usual style was something that many people could not get used to. Forget the fact that this family's old and young were too lazy to die, just this Mrs Dong alone had their mouth full! The Eastern Family's Lee Family was short, and they were an old married woman who looked forward to seeing people fail. Upon learning that she had been blown up, who knew how many wives and wives in the village secretly cursed her!

On the other hand, after Madam Qin found out about what happened to the Mrs Dong, she took the remaining pork meat and went to visit the Mrs Dong.

"After all, fellow villagers live in the same village. If they don't visit others because they know that they are in trouble, how can they afford to lose face?" Madam Qin said to Hemai.

Hemai knew that the old lady was kind and she had no other choice but to ask, "Grandmother, you have gone to take a look. How's Auntie? "

"Ah," Madam Qin shook her head in regret, "I was only pointing at your Aunt Dong! The wound on his face had not fully healed, and he was already working on the floor. The two sons of the collapsed kitchen do not care about anyone. It is as if the family was unrelated to them! "

Madam Qin sighed again, "But if you were to talk about such a useless situation, who can you blame? Wasn't this all her fault!? In the early days, she didn't do anything. Her family's livelihood was all up to her man! The children were not properly educated, Changang and Yue Yang were very diligent when they were young! Her brain was smart and her mouth was sweet, but she had managed to cultivate such a cowardly appearance. "Ah, after all these years, when her man fell, she didn't even have someone to rely on!"

Hemai felt a tinge of sympathy in her heart, but then she thought, who could be wrong about this? In a place like Xiaoqing Village, the villagers were somewhat poor, but unlike their families, the entire family was idle, sitting idly on the ground, eating and drinking.

Taking a load of firewood from someone else, even if he didn't return it, shouldn't he always think of taking it!? Even if they came to take it, how could they speak ill of this family behind their backs all day long?

In the incident with Mrs Dong, the only one who went to see her was Madam Qin.

Hemai pursed her lips, and took out 20 gold coins from her pocket.

"Milk, next time when you go to Auntie Dong's place, give her this copper coin and let her buy two pounds of meat to mend her body."

He had to make up for his words with his mouth, so that he could speak less of the next time!

A few of the little Piggy s had grown quite a bit, and in less than a month's time, these few Piggy had already sprinted half a head forward, and their bodies had also swelled up.

It was all thanks to Hemai and Liulang taking good care of him.

Every morning, Hemai would follow Liulang on a trip to the mountainside. In the middle of the journey, she would see pigweed cutting the pig grass and mushroom gathering.

Liulang carried a basket on his back. If there was anything wild, he would carry it in his basket, and from time to time, he would see a wild hare chicken. He would draw his bow, and as long as he saw it, there would be no wild game for him to run away from!

The two of them were extremely fast, so it didn't take them more than four hours to get down from the mountainside.

Liulang said that the mountain path from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain was easy to walk on, it was not as rugged as the mountain peak. If he were to climb from the mountainside, he would probably be unable to go up for at least two days.

Liulang could also be considered to be bringing Hemai to hunt every day. He could even cut boar grass and pick mushrooms along the way.

Hemai still had to put the pig grass that she cut back into the pot and boil it, add some bran and leftover vegetable soup etc.

The Blacky grew up with them, too.

The Blacky had been here for almost two months now. When they first arrived home, it was a furry bundle that could be lifted with one hand, and it was thin and long. It was the time to be mischievous and playful.

When it came to the next day, there would always be people at home, so the courtyard wouldn't have to be closed all the time. When Hemai was taking care of him on the vegetable patch, the Blacky would skip and roll along with him. At the beginning, it would obediently stay by her master's feet, but after taking care of itself, the Blacky disappeared without a trace.

When Hemai had pretty much done with the field, she shouted twice and saw a black shadow running over from afar, smashing right into her feet.

"With this little thing here, our family probably won't be able to feed the chickens and ducks for more than a year." Hemai said helplessly.

Yang Liulang laughed, "Not that long. The dogs we have in the farmyard should be taught in a few days. "When the time comes, you can watch the house and follow us up the mountain to hunt. There won't be any problems."

"That's good," Hemai said as she looked at the Blacky with her curved eyes. "I still don't know what kind of power this little thing is capable of."
