Chapter 41

"Who did the cattle herding before?" Yi Roujing looked at Ding Anmin curiously and asked.

Ding Anmin secretly pulled Yi Roujing's sleeve, and Ding Xiaoding waved his hand with a smile, "I live in the cowshed. I was sick before and couldn't bear it. I asked him to herd cattle for a while. Now I'm ready, I'll give him the job of cutting pig grass. You can change it, and that's it."

Ding Xiaoding went back after saying that, but Yi Roujing didn't have time to speak. Forget it, let's herd cattle.

Ding Anmin glanced at Yi Roujing with some envy, "I didn't expect you to be treated like this. Mr. Qi used to be the one who herded cattle, Xiaojie from Aunt Bai Wei's family."

Yi Roujing twitched the corners of her mouth. She understood it, which means that her life can be done by a child, but... "Who is Mr. Qi?"

"Don't ask so much, it's bad to get angry." Ding Anmin whispered, "I was sent to the public, and everyone in the brigade is avoiding it."

Yi Roujing realized it, then frowned, "How old is it?"

"How could I know, but I'd be fifty."

Yi Roujing was a little ashamed, "So I'm snatching a job from an old man over fifty years old?"

"This is not a robbery." Ding Anmin rolled his eyes, "Old Qi's cattle herding is temporary. How could the delegated person do such a light work? I won't give it to you today, and the cheaper ones will be someone else."

"Where is Xiaojie?" Yi Roujing asked curiously.

"Xiaojie has gone to herd sheep." Ding Anmin explained, "The one who used to herd sheep was Xiaojing, who is now the scorer. After she became the scorer, she gave Xiaojie the job of sheep, and the captain took special care of the team leader."

"Why is Ding Xiaojing so taken care of?" Yi Roujing asked in a low voice.

"There is a capable father," Ding Anmin replied, "her father is a cadre in the commune."

"Then why did she still live in the brigade and not go to the commune?"

"Where to live in the commune? The family members who don't farm and rely on her father to starve to death." Ding Anmin explained the facts, "What's more, the commune is not far from the brigade, and they ride a bicycle back and forth every day."

"Then why don't we buy bicycles?" Yi Roujing changed the topic quickly, mainly because she thought of the sadness of her and Ding Anmin's journey with her before.

"Do you know how much a bicycle cost? It costs almost 200 yuan, and you also need tickets, which is even worse." Ding Anmin muttered.

"Not Ding'an City either?" Yi Roujing said bluntly.

"Of course I have it, and I've given the ticket, but my parents are reluctant to let it go. I thought I would wait for my elder brother to get married..." Ding Anmin didn't finish speaking, but just looked at Yi Roujing directly.

Well, she doesn't deserve a bicycle.

However, this idea was broken when the two of them returned home, because after Li Hongying cleaned the kitchen, she found Yi Roujing and gave her a wrapped handkerchief, a thick stack.

"This is the money and tickets that Ancheng gave to his family after becoming a teacher. I have been saving it. I originally wanted to give it to you two after he got married. "Li Hongying put the handkerchief wrapped in a long strip on Yi Roujing's hand, which was very important.

Yi Roujing was a little stressed, "He gave this to his home, so he didn't have to give it to me, and I was eating and living at home."

"When you get married, you will have your own small family. In the future, when Anguo gets married, I will let them do this. You should keep it." Li Hongying said and turned around and left.

When she was just leaving the person, Li Hongying didn't follow her, otherwise Yi Roujing would have doubted whether she had been heard about her conversation with Ding Anmin.

"Mom, Xingchen is back?" Ding Anmin asked without seeing Xia Xingchen.

"Well, I said I'm going back to boil the medicine. By the way, Xingchen is fine, I didn't have time to ask before." Li Hongying said carelessly.

"It's nothing." Ding Anmin took it over. After all, it was the Xia Xingchen family's business, so she couldn't promote it at will. Even though it was her own mother, she wouldn't say it anymore.

"It's fine."

In the afternoon, Yi Roujing went to work with her, but she was still her original partner, so the three of them went to cut pig grass.

"Have you taken the medicine?" Yi Roujing looked at Xia Xingchen and asked, and Xia Xingchen nodded.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I won't joke about my body."

"That's good."

...

"Ahem—"

Today, the group did not go to the previous mountain, but on a small flat slope. There were a lot of pig grass here, which was also a good place to grazed sheep and cattle. So when the three of them arrived, they saw Ding Quanjie who was already there, and an old man with white hair. I think it was Old Qi.

"Grandpa Qi, are you okay?" Xiaojie obediently patted Mr. Qi's back.

"Ahem—"

However, Mr. Qi was so coughed that he couldn't speak, so he waved his hand to signal that he was fine.

I heard that there was phlegm and I didn’t know if my lungs were inflamed. Yi Roujing frowned slightly and listened for a while, then stepped forward to take the pulse of Mr. Qi who was still coughing.

Yi Roujing suddenly appeared and took his pulse directly with Mr. Qi's hand. Mr. Qi was so scared that he trembled for a moment. He struggled to withdraw his hand. Yi Roujing used some skill to fix the pulse carefully.

He was more severe than before when he fell into the water. Even if he was just his wrist, the heat was still a bit burning, and the wind and cold were still inside. "We will send Mr. Qi to the place where he lives first. He shouldn't work like this now."

"I can help herd cattle together." Xiaojie said, pointing to the cattle and sheep that were harmoniously bowing their heads to eat grass not far away.

"I'll stay here, you two go, I'll drag you down with you." Xia Xingchen has a very good understanding of himself now.

Ding Anmin hesitated for a moment, but went forward to take the initiative to support Mr. Qi. Yi Roujing held the other side. The two of them almost worked together to carry Mr. Qi towards the cowshed, but they didn't feel it was very difficult.

Almost skinny, Yi Roujing's eyes became darker.

Yi Roujing didn't know the place, but was led by Ding Anmin. When he saw the pile of rocks, there was a large hole in the thatch on the top, and the dilapidated cowshed. Yi Roujing pursed his lips tightly, saying that this was not where people live.

"Why is no one here to repair the roof of the cowshed this year?" Ding Anmin muttered.

There are two adjacent houses in the cowshed, one is Niu Living, and the other is Mr. Qi. The empty room I just saw was actually for Mr. Qi to live in. Niu Living is better than him, and Yi Roujing was speechless.

As soon as I walked into the room, the yellow mud was pressed tightly on the ground, and a wooden basin was placed under the ripped hole on the thatched roof, and the bed made of wooden boards was placed in a relatively safe corner.

Yi Roujing lifted the quilt and rustled it a few times. He could confirm that there was straw in the quilt. It would be strange if there was no wind or cold.

"An Min, come to my room to get a quilt." Yi Roujing looked at Ding An Min and said, "Take the Chinese medicine sent by Xingchen's stepmother before."

"Ah?" Ding Anmin frowned, "Those who cannot cure the disease, why do you do it? Don't do it randomly."

"I know." Yi Roujing looked up at Ding Anmin and said.

Ding Anmin frowned and went out obediently. Yi Roujing has been doing things in a decent manner these days.
