“Help!”
"Is anyone there?"
"Is there anyone passing by who can help me?"
Hua Erniu could hear Lao Yutou's slightly hoarse shouting from a distance.
Hua Erniu quickened his pace and laughed. This old man used to be so arrogant, but it was rare to see him in such a miserable state.
Carefully pushing aside a clump of miscanthus to avoid being cut by the sharp leaves, Hua Erniu entered the sweet potato field that Lao Yutou had secretly opened up.
When Old Yu heard the rustling sound, he was quite surprised. But when he saw that it was Hua Erniu with expectant eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"You little bastard! You're stealing my sweet potatoes again!"
"...Forget it. If you rescue me, you can eat as many sweet potatoes as you want from the fields. How about that?"
Old Yu changed his mind and thought, alas, his own life is more important. There is really no other way at the moment. All his hopes are on this kid.
Hua Erniu didn't expect to have an unexpected gain. It seemed that Old Yu was really anxious.
He pointed at Old Yu and laughed mercilessly.
"Hahahaha, old man, didn't you chase us with a hoe just two days ago? I didn't expect you to end up like this!"
The brothers and sisters were so hungry that they had no choice but to go to the mountains to steal some sweet potatoes that Old Yu had secretly planted. As a result, they happened to run into Old Yu who was visiting the sweet potato field.
Old Yu immediately became furious and rushed over waving a hoe, chasing them from the mountain to the foot of the mountain and then back up the mountain. Fortunately, the brothers and sisters often looked for food in the mountains and were familiar with the mountains, so they managed to escape from Old Yu.
After a while, the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes wafted into Old Yu's nose, but he couldn't find anyone, which made Old Yu very angry.
At that time, there was a roar, saying:
"You little brats better stay out of my hands!"
As a result, he is the one who is in trouble now. Who can he complain to?
After laughing, Hua Erniu supported Lao Yu's head and asked:
"Can you still walk?"
Old Yu immediately cried out, shouting:
"It hurts, it hurts, I'm afraid I broke a bone!"
"Okay, okay, I'll carry you!"
Hua Erniu had to help his family with farm work a long time ago, so he still had some strength left. He simply picked up Old Yu and carried him down the mountain.
Old Yu's home is not in the village. It is at the foot of the mountain, far away from the village. It is separated from the people in the village by several large fields. It can be said that they are far away from each other, but it is still under the management of the Dafang Village Production Team.
People were not able to eat enough these days, and his home was far away, so he simply opened up land in the mountains to secretly grow crops, and then harvested the food for his family to eat secretly without anyone noticing.
Unexpectedly, I ran into Hua Erniu and his sister and a few other thieves. But the disadvantage of no one discovering this place is that if something happens, no one will help you. But Hua Erniu could be discovered if he came to steal sweet potatoes.
Old Yu sighed. In fact, he knew Hua Erniu's situation, but he was just too busy to take care of himself these days.
Anyway, this place has been discovered by these brothers and sisters, so it’s better to give them some food to prevent them from revealing it.
Hua Erniu carried Lao Yutou back to Lao Yutou's home and put him on the bed.
Hua Erniu asked, "Do you want me to go and call someone for you?"
The Yu family is probably out picking wild vegetables at this moment, so no one is at home.
"That's enough. Thank you for what you did today. You can go now. Brothers and sisters, please feel free to eat the sweet potatoes in the field. Just don't ask the adults to dig them up."
Old Yu gave some instructions, waved goodbye and let Beggar Erniu leave.
Hua Erniu left happily. He originally came for the three pounds of noodles, but he didn't expect to get an unexpected gain. At least his brothers and sisters would not have to worry about food for the next few days.
In addition to sweet potatoes, he also triggered another unexpected harvest.
When I was carrying Old Yutou in the mountains, I accidentally saw some wild fruits on the roadside, and the voice in my head started talking again:
"It's the season of growth, the joy of harvest. Old Huatou has been craving the wild fruits in the mountains, but he's never had the time to pick them. Can you pick two pounds for him? I'll give you two yuan as a reward."
Hua Erniu was full of questions in his mind.
What kind of wild fruit is made of gold and costs one dollar per pound?
Presbyopia is such a luxury.
But Hua Erniu was very excited, because two dollars could do a lot of things.
Especially since he didn't have a penny on him, let alone two dollars, even having two cents would be a rare opportunity.
So after leaving Old Yutou behind, Hua Erniu called a few of his younger brothers and sisters to go up the mountain to pick fruits.
…
"Merit +1, Gratitude +2."
Hua Wanchi was looking at the broken bowl in his hand, and he was delighted when he heard the system voice.
She really did not choose the wrong person!
Old Huatou was still working on his private plot with a hoe when he suddenly saw Hua Erniu holding a broken basin filled with wild fruits and bringing it towards him.
"Old Flowerhead, I'll give you two kilograms of wild fruit!"
After saying this, Hua Erniu dropped the wild fruit and ran away.
Old man:?
How did this kid know that he wanted to eat wild fruits?
He looked at himself and realized that he hadn't told anyone else!
No, even if he knew, we are not related in any way, so why would Hua Erniu give him fruit for no reason?
Hua Tiansheng was completely confused, so he put down his hoe and went home with the wild fruits.
When I got home and saw Wan Qingliu, I was still confused:
"Erniu gave me a bowl of wild fruit today. What do you think he wants?"
Wan Qingliu thought for a moment:
"Could it be that he has taken a fancy to our Yanyan?"
"I don't think so. I've never seen them meet."
After thinking for a long time without figuring it out, Hua Tiansheng decided not to think about it anymore.
In the middle of the night he suddenly woke up from his dream and sat up suddenly.
"No, why on earth is he doing this?"
Putting aside the old man’s doubts, Hua Erniu brought home three pounds of flour, which surprised Hua Ergou and the others.
