Chapter 73 Apologize to my wife
Seeing the two children nodding in unison, Jiang Miao quickly went to the back.
Yu Ying was sitting by the rabbit cage, chopping bamboo with a sword in her hand.
"Mom, are you okay?"
Yu Ying turned her head and said, "Miao Yatou, do you know how to make rabbit meat delicious?"
Dabao and Xiaobao stomped their feet excitedly, "Eat rabbit!"
Jiang Miao: "."
"Mom, do you really want to eat rabbit?" She couldn't laugh or cry, so she walked over and grabbed Yu Ying's hand and looked at it.
There was a deep gash, and it was obvious that the rabbit had bitten hard.
She immediately went to the house to get medicine and sprinkle it on Yu Ying, and then wrapped it in gauze. "Mom, please keep your hands away from water for the past two days. I can cook rabbit meat. When Cheng Huai comes back, I will tell him to kill him."
"Stay a few more days." Yu Ying said calmly, "Huai will be twenty-two in a few days. It's time to kill the rabbit and eat something good."
Jiang Miao's expression paused. She didn't expect that it would be Rough Man's birthday in a few days. Fortunately, she knew it in advance.
She and her two children celebrated their birthdays before, and the family even bought meat to eat. Naturally, Cheng Huai couldn't just deal with it casually.
"Okay, then I'll kill you in a few days. Mom, please stop using this dustpan. Your hands are still injured."
"It's okay, I just don't need this finger." Yu Ying couldn't stop, staring at the wild rabbit in the cage while splitting the bamboo menacingly.
Jiang Miao didn't try to persuade her anymore. Knowing that Yu Ying was still angry with the rabbit, she took Dabao and Xiaobao to the vegetable garden to pee, and then turned over the things to dry and continued to dry them.
Later in the evening, Li Guihua brought dates over, saying they were sent by someone from her parents' family. Jiang Miao thanked her and took some peanuts and dried dates back from the house.
Jiang Miao fed the chickens again. As soon as she put down the bowl of broken rice, the rooster in the chicken coop swooped over and jumped to the bowl to grab the food.
Jiang Miao quickly retracted her hand. The rooster did look a bit scary when it grew up, especially the big wings that were fluttering.
Dabao and Xiaobao were also frightened by the flapping big wings. One flew into Yu Ying's arms, and the other hugged Jiang Miao's thigh.
Yu Ying directly picked up a nearby branch and punched it in, then cursed angrily.
Turning to Jiang Miao: "Girl Miao, go see if Cheng Huai is back, and ask him to go find Master Zhang and see if there are any unwanted large wooden boards."
Jiang Miao nodded: "Okay."
It was getting dark outside, and Cheng Huai and the others were about to finish their work. Jiang Miao stood at the intersection near the village chief's house for a while, and saw a man carrying a hoe and preparing to go up the mountain.
Seeing Jiang Miao, he walked a little faster, walked to her and lowered his head, "Why are you here?"
Jiang Miao raised her head and asked him to wipe her sweat with a handkerchief, "Mom wants us to go to Master Zhang's house and ask if there are any unwanted wooden boards. The hens and roosters at home are fighting, and the hens can't eat the millet."
Cheng Huai took the handkerchief and wiped his sweat, then said in a hoarse voice: "I'll go over and ask later. It's hot outside. You go back first."
"Then you go up the mountain quickly and come back early. I'll get some food." Jiang Miao nodded. Seeing that he had finished wiping off his sweat, she reached out to take the handkerchief back.
Cheng Huai stuffed the handkerchief into his clothes, "I'll sweat later."
Jiang Miao took back her hand and said, "Then I'll give it to you."
"Okay." The man nodded immediately, with a smile in his eyes.
Just as he was about to leave, there was a noise coming from behind, getting closer and closer.
"Village Chief, my second pillar has done so much work for your family, why do you only have eight cents?"
"Did someone tell you something? Village chief, you can't do this. You've been working for so long."
A swarm of people followed the village chief and saw Jiang Miao and Cheng Huai. Liu Guiju, the daughter-in-law of the second pillar, suddenly understood.
"Village Chief, did Cheng Huai say bad things about our second pillar behind his back?"
"I just casually said why her wife hasn't given birth to a baby yet. It's all a joke. Why do you still hold grudges?"
Hearing this, Cheng Huai suddenly looked at Jiang Miao beside him. She had been wronged outside and did not tell him.
Liu Guiju glared at Jiang Miao angrily and dissatisfied, and continued to approach the village chief to plead for mercy.
"Village chief, please give me the two cents as a supplement. He is never lazy in his work."
Wang Caifu got impatient with being pestered, "In the Erzhu family, everyone's wages are the same. Why don't you ask where your Erzhu money went?"
"Didn't you get detained for being lazy?" Liu Guiju asked subconsciously.
Wang Caifu glared at her, "You also know that your second pillar is lazy, why do you come to me crying? I will really deduct money next time!"
They were all from the village. This family was lazy and that family was lazy, but he turned a blind eye. Anyway, the houses were almost completed.
Now that I have given money and still get slapped on my head by scoundrels, even a good old man is not happy about it.
Liu Guiju felt guilty and glanced at Wang Caifu, "Really?" Then didn't she wrongly accuse the Cheng family?
Wang Caifu rolled his eyes at her, and when he saw Cheng Huai and Jiang Miao, his tone became much better: "They are all from the village, don't take it to heart."
After saying that, he left with the others.
Liu Guiju pursed her lips and was about to leave, but was blocked by a tall and mighty figure.
She raised her head, clutched the basket in her hand, and her lips trembled: "What do you want from the Cheng family? Do you dare to hit me?"
Cheng Huai raised his hand, and Liu Guiju was so frightened that she sat on the ground, "I didn't mean to say anything about your wife, why do you really want to hit her!"
"Apologise to my wife." Cheng Huai withdrew his hand, his hoarse voice showing a bit of solemnity.
Liu Guiju got up from the ground and glanced at Jiang Miao guiltily, "It's my fault. You told your man not to hit anyone casually. If you really hit me, my second pillar is not a vegetarian!"
After apologizing, he did not forget to threaten.
Jiang Miao grabbed Cheng Huai's hand, feeling warm in her heart that the rough man was protecting her.
"Aunt Liu should stop talking nonsense in the future. Fortunately, my Cheng Huai is a reasonable person, otherwise Uncle Erzhu wouldn't be able to defeat him when he comes." Jiang Miao threatened back with a smile.
Are you still reasonable? The Cheng family is the least reasonable in this village.
Liu Guiju didn't dare to say anything. Seeing that Cheng Huai didn't want to hit anyone, she ran away with the basket in her arms.
The sky became much darker again, so Jiang Miao urged Cheng Huai to go up the mountain and returned home.
After preparing dinner with Yu Ying, Cheng Huai came back carrying a long wooden board.
Put it in the chicken house and divide it into left and right sides. You can feed them separately later.
Yu Ying looked at it with satisfaction, poked the restless rooster with a branch, and then took the two children to the front to eat.
Jiang Miao filled the stove with water. When she saw the man outside who had cleaned the chicken coop, she said, "Cheng Huai, come here quickly. I'll scoop water for you to wash your hands."
After washing their hands, the two went to the front to eat. Li Guihua also came up with a bowl and chatted lively with Yu Ying.
Jiang Miao listened for a while and realized that Liu Guiju had turned the house upside down as soon as she returned and found out all the money that Erzhu had secretly hidden. Now the couple had not eaten dinner and were still quarreling at home.
