Chapter 183 The Foodie Pony King
Mingdai and Wu Zhanzhan put on their clothes and quietly came out of the room holding the door bolt.
As soon as he came out, he ran into Bai Lianhua, who was also limping and carrying the door bolt.
Just as the two were about to ask what happened, the door was hit again, and this time the sound was even louder!
The three of them didn't dare to make a sound and walked cautiously into the yard.
After going out, I found that Zhou Sinian was not in the yard and there was no one behind the door.
After looking for a while, I saw him standing on the wall, looking down without saying a word.
Ming, Dai and the other two were very curious and approached him quietly.
Bai Lianhua lowered his voice, looking nervous: "Niannian, who is that at the door? Do you know him?"
Zhou Sinian tilted his head and thought for a moment: "Yes, I know him. I just saw him this afternoon."
Just met you this afternoon?
Mingdai’s first thought was, could it be that old man from the Fifteenth Master, coming here in the middle of the night to bang on the door and cause trouble?
Without waiting for her to ask, Zhou Sinian jumped directly out of the wall. Three seconds later, a happy hissing sound was heard.
Ming and Dai three people: . . . . . .
Um?!!!!!
Mingdai opened the door and Zhou Sinian came in, leading his horse with an impatient look on his face.
It turned out that the person who knocked on the door of my uncle's house in the middle of the night was the little horse Wang that Zhou Sinian rode this afternoon.
The horse now followed Zhou Sinian closely, rubbing its big head against him and licking his hand vigorously with its tongue, regardless of Zhou Sinian's dislike. It was obvious that it was still thinking about the candy that Zhou Sinian had given it in the afternoon.
Wu Jianjian looked at it in disbelief: "Why is it here? Shouldn't it be in the stable?!"
Bai Lianhua then spoke up: "Yes! The key is, how did it find this place?"
Mingdai turned on the flashlight and looked at the horse that was acting coquettishly towards Zhou Sinian, feeling a little headache.
"It was probably thinking about the candy Zhou Sinian gave it during the day, so it came here on its own at night. Horses have good memories. Has it been to my uncle's place before?"
Bai Lianhua suddenly realized: "My elder brother brought it to help with moving a few times before."
Ming Dai nodded, and then didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "This is also a foodie. He actually came here in the middle of the night."
Wu Jianjian nodded in agreement: "That's right, the stable was not only locked up, but there were also people guarding it at night, yet it was allowed to escape."
The three of them sighed in unison and looked at the man and the horse beside them.
Zhou Sinian was pacing around the yard impatiently, trying to avoid the clinging horse, and from time to time he would raise his hand threateningly, trying to hit the horse that was approaching.
The horse was not afraid at all. It kept sticking its head out to rub against him, and occasionally made Zhou Sinian stumble.
Finally, Zhou Sinian couldn't bear it anymore, so he climbed up to the top of the wall and stood there, looking at Mingdai with a wronged look.
The horse tried several times but couldn't reach the person, so it got anxious and started barking again.
Seeing that half the village was about to be woken up, Mingdai hurried into the house to get some candy to feed the horse.
Unexpectedly, before she could get close, the horse turned its head back vigilantly, raised its upper body, and refused her approach.
When Zhou Sinian saw that the horse dared to raise its hooves at Mingdai, he was so angry that he jumped directly from the wall onto the horse's back and slapped it. The horse then lowered its head obediently.
Mingdai peeled the candy and passed it over.
The horse bared its teeth and wanted to bite. Zhou Sinian pinched its ears to warn it. The horse reluctantly came closer, but after smelling the familiar fragrance, it immediately changed its attitude, stomped its hooves in a cheerful rhythm, and took away the candy.
The horse was very satisfied after eating the candy. It rolled its tongue to savor the candy in its mouth. Mingdai took the opportunity to touch it. The black horse hair was a little prickly, but it must be said that the horse was quite handsome.
"What should we do now? Send him back?"
Wu Zuizhuan looked at Zhou Sinian who was yawning on the horse's back and the horse that was curiously wandering around the yard, and waved his hands.
"Forget it, I'll send it off tomorrow. It's already so late. If I go there later, I won't be able to sleep when I come back."
Mingdai nodded.
So the four of them went back to sleep, leaving the horse to wander around the yard.
Old Mr. Bai was still sleeping soundly in the house, and had no idea that there was a new horse in the house.
They fell asleep, but Ma Si was not sleepy at all!
The yard was small and it couldn't run away, so it started tap dancing in the yard. The tap dance made such a noisy sound that the neighbors started swearing.
Zhou Sinian couldn't stand it anymore, so he went out and beat the horse, and the horse finally behaved itself.
But this time it didn't dance. Instead, it watched people sleep, and it watched in two rooms in turn.
It was still quite scary to see a huge horse head lying on the window and looking inside through the glass.
Mingdai was speechless and didn't want to bother herself any more. She covered herself with the quilt, not looking out the window, and fell into a deep sleep.
This day by day!
The next day, early in the morning, Wu Xiaxia and Bai Lianhua pulled the reluctant horses back to the stable.
The horse was reluctant to move, and it was only satisfied after Mingdai fed it another piece of candy.
The two uncles went to send the horses off, while Mingdai and Zhou Sinian were brushing their teeth in the yard.
While brushing, Zhou Sinian suddenly asked Ming Dai: "Can we take it away?"
Ming Dai knew what he meant and shook her head: "No, it's not from the mountains, it can't be packed."
Zhou Sinian was a little disappointed. He had finally found a horse that was not afraid, and he didn't want to give up.
With a roll of his eyes, he came up with a good idea!
Mingdai was distracted while brushing her teeth. She had been thinking about Wu Zaiza's promise to take her to the back mountain to see the treasure that Master Wu had stolen, so she missed Zhou Sinian's little thoughts.
When Wu Lanlan and Bai Lianhua sent the horse back, no one watching over the stable noticed that the little horse king was missing.
The little horse king strolled back home happily, leaving the guards to be scolded by Wu Da.
When I got home, I saw that Mr. Bai had also gotten up and was drinking a bowl of fried noodles that Mingdai had made for him.
Mingdai was cooking in the kitchen while Zhou Sinian was lighting the fire. The two of them worked in perfect harmony, looking like a young couple, which made Bai Lianhua grin with his teeth bared.
This guy is really good. Even when he was stupid, he could find such a good wife for himself. Not bad! This is very similar to him!
After dinner, seeing Mingdai’s uncontrollable excitement, Wu Jianjian took them to the back mountain first.
The back mountain is just behind the farm, and the place where things are stored is the cave that was used to store food in the village.
After liberation, the cave was idle and her father used it to store things.
Ming Dai looked at the large iron gate that was poured out with iron, and had a more concrete understanding of the previous strength of Wujiazhai.
Even explosives can’t blow open this big iron door!
There was a mechanism on the door. Wu Hammer worked on it. After a while, the door slowly rose up, which startled Mingdai again.
The door opened, but before they entered, a cool breeze accompanied by a rotten smell blew towards them.
After entering, Wu Zuanzuan lit the torches on the wall, and the cave gradually became brighter.
The granary is very large, with some things scattered in the middle.
Everything was covered with green military tarpaulin, which had already faded and was covered with dust.
"My family's property is basically all here. My father divided it into six parts, one for each of the five children, and the rest is for my father and mother to live on in their old age.
I have the most things, including my mother’s dowry, which I have more than my brothers.”
After saying that, she lifted the tarpaulin to reveal what was underneath. Mingdai was dazzled by the full set of huanghuali furniture, especially the step-out bed in the middle, which really looked like a small house!
The patterns on it are lifelike and very delicate. It is obviously the work of a master, and the carving is very extraordinary.
Wu Jianjian touched the furniture and said with a smile: "Don't look at my father as a bandit, my mother is not, her family is a well-known wealthy family in the city, and her ancestors have a number one scholar.
Unfortunately, my mother did not live to see the good times. On the wedding day, life took its toll and her fiancé and his family simply fled, leaving my mother's sedan chair on the road.
It happened that my father went down the mountain to make a living. After he was done, he saw the sedan chair and, thinking that he was in need of a wife, he asked someone to carry the sedan chair and dowry up the mountain.
So, my mother was taken to the mountains by my father as his wife."
Ming Dai: Wow, Grandma Wu is really the wife of the leader who was snatched away!
Zhou Sinian: It turns out that the daughter-in-law was robbed!
Bai Lianhua: My father-in-law is awesome!
"My mother didn't resent my father for taking her up the mountain. Instead, she was grateful. My grandfather's family is a very conservative family. My mother is already married and would not be accepted by the family if she returned. Instead, for the sake of the reputation of other girls in the family, my mother would only be buried in the pond!
So, my father kidnapped my mother, but he also saved her life. My mother was grateful to him for this and did not mind his crudeness and lived with my father all her life.
My father married a young lady from a wealthy family that he never dared to think of, and he cherished her very much. Since then, my mother has been alone, and the two of them have been living hand in hand and in love until now."
Mingdai listened carefully. Such feelings were very rare in those war-torn years and made people very jealous.
Wu Xiaxia looked at Bai Lianhua with a smile: "My mother left all her dowry to me, hoping that I could meet a good man who treats me wholeheartedly and live a happy life like her."
Bai Lianhua swore earnestly: "Hammer, I swear, I will only treat you well in my life! I will never let you down!"
Ming Dai is watching from the side, eating sugar on the spot, don’t be too happy!
Zhou Sinian muttered to himself: It turns out that marrying a wife is about snatching her away! No wonder my uncle is the bride, he can't snatch her away from Hammer.
