Chapter 172 Theft
The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and the thick quilt could no longer cover her.
Little Nuobao was still sleeping soundly, her chubby body was sweating, and she was so hot that she kept squirting in the quilt like a little caterpillar.
After Feng came home, she saw that the little girl was in pain, and she was busy with her hands and feet.
She pulled the quilt open a little, leaving only a corner to cover her belly.
"Fengnian." After leaving the house, Feng called softly, "Mother, you neglected it. We should change the summer quilt at home. Look at how warm your sister is."
"But we only have two summer quilts at home, and they are old ones. When you go to the city to deliver radishes to Feng Jing and Dean Wei, buy a few ready-made ones."
Jiang Fengnian agreed repeatedly, "Okay, mother, please give me the money."
"Remember to buy better ones, especially for Nuobao and Mr. Xiao. Don't mess around." Feng said, and went to the inner room to look through the money box.
Listening to the little cry of the lady, gradually calming down, Feng counted the money and grinned.
Life is really good now, and it's a bit extravagant. In the past, country people would not even buy ready-made quilts.
It's a luxury to tear off two feet of cloth to replace the quilt cover that is almost worn out.
After heating the meal, Feng happened to have nothing to do today, so she took a stool and sat by the door, doing needlework with Li Qiqiao. People
sweat a lot in summer, so bellybands are changed and washed most frequently.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law made a few more for Nuobao and Chunger. After the color faded, they were no longer needed. They were directly disassembled and used as socks for Fengnian and others.
Jiang Fenghu came back from the field and gulped down half a scoop of cool water.
He remembered that he should send rice, flour, grain and oil to the old man's hall today.
So after resting, he ran to kiss his wife on the cheek, went down to the cellar to get them, and delivered them there.
"You are so naughty all the time, believe it or not, I will kick you." Li Qiqiao said coquettishly, blushing and glancing at Feng.
Feng laughed and said,
"What's the big deal? Everyone has been through youth."
Thinking back to the past, she and Jiang Dashan were even more naughty than this, and Old Lady Jiang wanted to dig her eyes out and was
so jealous that she was fuming. Sun Chunxue lay in front of the window of the wing, looking at this enviously.
It's true that a full man doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man.
If Fengnian could be like Fenghu and understand a little bit of romance, she would be more than happy.
At this time, Fengmiao walked to the bottom of the window of the east wing with a small waist, and suddenly jumped up and made a face.
"Sister-in-law is greedy, sister-in-law is greedy, come and see!" Jiang Fengmiao shouted.
Sun Chunxue was startled and was about to cover his mouth with her hand: "Old Five, what nonsense are you talking about? What greedy or not, is your skin itchy? Come here!"
Although Jiang Fengnian is not romantic, he is very clear about cleaning up Fengmiao.
He picked up the broom and made little Fengmiao drop her shoes and run around the yard.
With such a commotion, Xiao Nuobao's sleepiness was naturally all gone.
She sat up straight and kicked her legs in anger.
Fortunately, after Jiang Fengnian came into the house, he coaxed her and said that he would take her to the academy, and the little girl smiled.
After the top braid was done and a big red dot appeared between his eyebrows, Nuobao sat at the dining table, holding a lazy egg cake in one hand and a fried chicken drumstick in the other, eating until his mouth was full.
After finishing the cake and the chicken drumstick, although he was full
, the steamed egg with tofu was so tender that it shook when the spoon was tapped. Little Nuobao smacked his lips and slurped up another half bowl.
Finally, he drank some thin rice soup, and little Nuobao smiled with satisfaction. Then he was carried on the donkey cart to go into the city to see his fourth brother.
Feng stood in front of the door and handed over four radishes and a big bowl of fried chicken drumsticks for Jiang Fengnian to take away.
"Give one of these Persian radishes to Feng Jing, and one to Dean Wei. Cut the remaining two on a plate and share some with Feng Jing and his classmates."
There were many children in the academy, and the dormitories were adjacent to each other.
Mrs. Feng couldn't let her son eat alone, as the other students would have to watch.
Jiang Fengnian responded, put the food away, and took his sister to the city.
When they arrived at the academy, the students saw that they also had a share of these beautiful radishes, and they all surrounded Feng Jing and shouted, and soon they were all snatched up.
Jiang Fengnian smiled happily.
The two radishes were also calculated to help Feng Jing gain some popularity.
At this time, Xiao Nuobao had already tiptoed, picked up the remaining two carrots from the car, and was heading to Dean Wei's study.
Feng Jing had not been back for two consecutive holidays and was taking extra classes at the academy. When he saw his sister, he couldn't take his eyes off her and hurriedly followed her.
The door of the study was half-open.
Just now, he heard from the older students that Dean Wei was in a bad mood these two days.
Xiao Nuobao was afraid of disturbing the dean's work, so he didn't go in first, but bent his little waist and lay by the door to take a look.
Dean Wei glanced at her out of the corner of his eye. Before he saw anyone, he saw a pair of upturned braids, like cricket whiskers, tentatively reaching in.
The braid was tied tightly, with a few red ropes tied on it. When the breeze blew, the red ropes swayed, so cute.
Dean Wei was curious and wanted to laugh, so he said in a doting voice: "Ahem, where did the little cricket outside the door come from? Come in quickly, let me see who you are."
Little Nuobao scratched her head, and then she entered the house with a playful smile!
"Dean Susu, it's me~"
The little person who looked like white tofu, stepped on warm red arched-toe shoes, walked swayingly, and a pair of small braids stood tall, looking very festive.
"Nuobao!" Dean Wei's eyes lit up immediately, and he pushed the desk away and ran over to hug her.
"Why are you here? I haven't seen you for a few days. If the academy wasn't too busy, the dean uncle would have wanted to go to Daliu Village to see you a long time ago."
Little Nuobao raised two carrots and knocked them on the head of Dean Wei, giggling softly: "Nuobao misses you too, Uncle Dean, didn't I bring my carrots to see you as soon as they were ready? Praise me for being a good baby!"
Dean Wei's heart seemed to have spilled honey, and the sweet energy flowed from his heart to the corners of his mouth, making him laugh.
Jiang Fengnian followed in with Fengjing, and they both shook their heads helplessly.
This kid is just good at talking, always making people stunned.
"Sister, take down the radish quickly, don't let Dean Wei's hair get dirty." Fengnian had to say.
"It's okay, let her play with it." Although Dean Wei has a cleanliness fetish, he didn't care at this moment, smiling as if it was worthless.
After Xiao Nuobao muttered and explained what Persian radish was, Dean Wei was like getting a treasure, and he couldn't get enough of looking at it.
In his eyes, the precious thing is not the radish itself.
But it was given to him by Nuobao!
Even if it is just an ordinary green radish or white radish, it is still a treasure in his eyes.
Dean Wei brought the snacks from the room and placed them in front of Nuobao one by one, then washed the radish with water, and he and Feng Jing each had one.
"The skin of this radish is moist and smooth, very beautiful. If the white radish is a rough man, then this Persian radish can be called a beauty from the Western Regions." Dean Wei is indeed a scholar, and he speaks in a literary way.
Jiang Fengnian smiled, he didn't expect to speak like this, at most he could only say a few words "delicious" and "beautiful", which is really incomparable to Dean Wei.
Dean Wei recited another poem, and then finally started to eat.
Feng Jing on the side waited for a long time, and when he saw the dean move, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, holding his own and started to eat.
"Is it delicious, fourth brother?" Jiang Fengnian turned around and asked.
"Hmm~" Jiang Fengjing nodded calmly, but his little feet hidden under the table had already started to move.
Wow, it tastes so good!
No, no, he has to endure it, he can't let Dean Wei think he is a greedy kid!
Xiao Nuobao kicked his fourth brother's feet, and the brother and sister looked at each other, their eyes smiling into crescents.
After eating two radishes, Dean Wei and Fengjing licked their lips with satisfaction.
At this moment, the academy's doorman suddenly ran over and called Dean Wei in embarrassment.
"What's the matter? We are not outsiders. Just tell me if you have something to say." Dean Wei raised his head.
The doorman was nervous: "Dean, something bad has happened. A student just came back to the dormitory and wanted to bring some snacks to Nuobao to thank her for the carrots she sent. But..."
He didn't dare to say anything, as if he was about to say something.
Dean Wei frowned and had already guessed: "Did you find something missing from the dormitory again?"
The doorman nodded with a bitter face: "This time, the Yunshui Pavilion dormitory on the left was robbed... Two robes, three hundred copper coins, and the fine paper and ink just sent by two students' families, and a collection of poetry books were stolen."
Dean Wei's face turned blue.
Helplessness and anger intertwined.
Here it comes again!
Jiang Fengnian couldn't help but ask: "So, the academy has been stolen more than once? Have you reported it to the police?"
Dean Wei loosened his clenched fist, shook his head and sighed.
"No, I guess it was probably stolen by a student. If I report it to the police, once it's caught, I'm afraid that the kid will be upset, so I plan to investigate myself."
However, after investigating for a few days, not only did he have no clue, but things continued to be lost in the dormitory. Dean Wei was very distressed about this.
After listening to Xiao Nuobao, he scratched his head and thought about it, and suddenly his chubby hands clapped!
"Uncle Dean, I have a way to find out who stole the things~"
