When Su Qingyun woke up, it was already bright outside.
When I opened the door, I happened to see Lu Changge moving a stone mill out of the warehouse.
"Husband, what are you doing?" Su Qingyun asked curiously.
"Husk the millet." Lu Changge moved the stone mill to the middle of the yard.
Then he stood up and said, "Breakfast is covered on the table."
"Okay." Su Qingyun responded and went to the sink to rinse his teeth and wash his face.
The villagers husk the millet and usually carry it to the threshing ground to dry it.
There are two stone mills in the threshing ground.
Of course, if you have a stone mill at home, you don't have to go through the trouble of moving it over.
Arrange the stone frame and then move the stone mill onto it.
Then he moved the bags of grain to the side, and Lu Changge led the black horse and tied the hemp rope that pulled the stone mill to it.
Next, start adding millet and milling rice.
With the free labor of Dark Horse, milling rice doesn't require much effort.
Soon, the bag of grain was empty.
After breakfast, Su Qingyun also came over to help.
The second bag of millet was also milled quickly, and Lu Changge brought another bag.
As soon as I untied the rope, I heard a noise outside the door.
At the same time, the couple heard Dahei and Erhei calling from the door.
“Woof woof…Woo woof woof woof!!”
Not long after, the little girl who was playing outside ran in, calling him daddy.
"Daddy! There are so many people outside!"
Normally, if Lu Changge is at home, little Tuanzi will subconsciously call him daddy no matter what the matter is.
Little Dumpling only bothers his mother when his father is not at home.
Little Dumpling ran in and hugged his father's calf, "They are... so fierce!"
"Don't be afraid, Daddy will go and take a look."
Lu Changge tied the cloth bag again, then untied the horse rope and led the horse to the tree and tied it up.
After doing all this, he walked towards the gate.
Before leaving, he did not forget to say to his wife, "I'm going to go out for a while."
As soon as Lu Changge stepped out of the gate, the originally ferocious Dahei and Erhei immediately stopped shouting.
Then retreat to the master's side.
However, his eyes were still fixed on the crowd.
Especially those people who had come to Lu’s house to steal things before.
Those who had been given special care by Dahei and Erhei now felt as if they were being stabbed in the back.
The people who came were led by the village chief.
However, most of them are middle-aged women, who are famous for being sharp-tongued and gossipy in the village.
"Lu Hunter is at home..." When the village chief saw that it was Lu Changge who came out, he forced a smile on his face.
"Well, is there something wrong, Village Chief?"
"Something happened. It's just that...several households in the village lost chickens and rice last night.
I have searched all the places in the village, and now the only place left is Lu Hunter..."
As soon as Su Qingyun walked over, he heard what the village chief said.
Even he understood what the village chief meant, let alone others.
Some of them even had an expression on their faces that said, "The things they lost must be hidden here."
Su Qingyun looked around and asked, "Village Chief, do you suspect that the things they lost are in our house?"
"This..." The village chief was choked by Su Qingyun's straightforward words.
"Isn't it?" One of the gossipy aunties glared at Su Qingyun.
"You just came back yesterday. Some families in the village lost things last night. Where else could they be if not here?"
Hearing her unreasonable argument, Su Qingyun smiled.
"According to what you said, my aunt, when my husband and I were not at home, two chickens and five bags of grain were missing from my house, and the rice, flour and pickled vegetables in the kitchen were also gone. Did you take all these things?"
Su Qingyun changed her previous gentle expression and turned cold, "When are you free? My husband and I can go get it back."
"Sharp-tongued..."
There was a low murmur in the crowd. It wasn't loud, but some people could still hear it.
Lu Changge looked over with cold eyes, and the man was so scared that he immediately stopped talking, lowered his head and hid behind other people.
"Hey, Lu Hunter, look..." The village chief looked at Lu Changge who was standing silently beside him, wanting him to say something.
"I listen to my husband." Lu Changge replied.
When the others heard what Lu Orion said, they couldn't help but curl their lips and secretly complain.
Nothing was missing from the house; they just came here to see the excitement, so they naturally didn't dare to say anything in front of Lu Changge.
However, the families whose chickens were lost no longer cared about their fear of Lu Changge when they thought of the two chickens.
"What's the point of letting us go in and take a look? We're not going in to take anything from your house."
"That's right, you're so secretive, aren't you afraid that we'll see something?"
Hearing what they said, Su Qingyun was not annoyed, but smiled and said: "Look at you, you let everyone know when you lost something, but I didn't say anything when so many things were stolen from my house?
You guys don't want to preemptively attack, do you?"
"you!"
Hearing his daughter-in-law's words, even Lu Changge, who was standing beside him, felt a little surprised.
What is his wife doing... is she opening up the Rentong and Ermai meridians?
How did you become so eloquent?
Because Lu Changge was there to keep the peace, in the end, the village chief and the group of aunts and grandmas had to return empty-handed.
But before leaving, Lin Qingrou, who was walking at the end, looked back.
She was very sure that the incident of something being lost in the village must be related to Lu Changge.
Because the families whose things were lost were the ones who had stolen things from Lu's house.
"Why didn't you say anything just now? Six taels of silver were lost from our family. It must be..."
The woman walking beside her tugged at Lin Qingrou's clothes.
Now, six taels of silver can support their family for a long time.
"Shut up! Don't talk!" When Lin Qingrou heard what her mother said, her expression instantly turned cold and she quickly pulled her away.
"That's how you talk to your mother..."
Listening to the woman's insults, Lin Qingrou's eyes were filled with impatience.
They are all a bunch of idiots!
She has gotten into so much trouble just after arriving.
Seeing them leave, Lu Changge turned around and closed the door.
Su Qingyun, who was walking in front, also slowly came out of his hot-headed state.
Thinking back to what she had done in front of her husband just now, Su Qingyun felt a little regretful.
At the same time, she was making a draft in her mind, thinking about how she should answer if her husband asked her about it later.
However, Su Qingyun waited for a long time but Lu Changge didn't say anything, so she couldn't help it.
"My husband..."
"Um?"
"You...don't have anything to ask?" Su Qingyun asked hesitantly.
"What do you want to ask?"
"Ask me why I changed so much just now..."
"Well... why?" Lu Changge asked.
In fact, he was quite curious.
After all, the only time his wife had a conflict with the villagers was when Lin Qingrou wanted to come and stay with them.
That time, his wife was speechless because of the villagers.
Now, in the second encounter, his wife has actually evolved and can fight back.
Su Qingyun: "..."
Isn’t this question from her husband too perfunctory?
However, Su Qingyun was eager to share it with others, so she didn't care.
Su Qingyun is indeed not good at arguing with others, but he can imitate others.
So he found a solution.
He learned how to fight back based on what those people said.
After listening to Su Qingyun's explanation, Lu Changge's mouth curled up uncontrollably.
"Wife, you are so smart."
Well... you know what, this is indeed a smart idea.
Hearing her husband's praise, Su Qingyun said with some pride: "This is called giving someone a taste of their own medicine."
[Isn't this what those people said... Use magic to defeat magic?] Er Teng, who was standing by, heard this and muttered something.
"Touching method? What is that?" the little dumpling whispered.
[That's a powerful thing that can turn you into a pig!]
"Wow! Really?" After hearing this, the little girl's eyes lit up instantly.
While Xiaotuanzi and Ertong were discussing the usefulness of magic, the couple continued to chat while grinding grain.
As they chatted, Su Qingyun thought of what had just happened.
"Husband, who do you think stole their things?"
"them."
"Ah?" Su Qingyun didn't understand.
"The families who lost things are the ones who came to our house to steal things." Lu Changge explained.
"Ah?!" Su Qingyun was a little surprised.
"Then those things they lost are..." Su Qingyun said, and suddenly understood.
The things that were lost in those homes were the things that were stolen from their homes.
"Yes." Lu Changge nodded in acknowledgement.
"Then..." Su Qingyun hesitated.
Lu Changge raised his head and looked over.
"Did you get the diced radish back?"
"...Brought it back." Captain Gordon paused and nodded.
It seems that his wife is still thinking about the two cans of diced radish.
Forget it, I'll just tell a white lie.
Hearing that Radish Ding had returned, Su Qingyun's mood immediately became cheerful.
It took Lu Changge three days to finally grind all the one and a half acres of millet he harvested this year.
After the millet is milled, the next step is to separate the husks from the rice.
Finally, this year's harvested and dried more than 900 kilograms of millet produced a total of 612 kilograms of rice and more than 270 kilograms of rice bran.
All the millet harvested this year has been husked.
However, there is still a pile of millet stored in the storage device, which is the stock that Lu Changge has stored for three years.
Every year, in addition to what he needs to eat that year, he would stock up about 500 kilograms, no more, no less.
So in these three years, Lu Changge stored nearly 1,500 kilograms of millet.
In addition, in June, Lu Changge went to the provincial capital to buy food, and bought enough rice and flour to last for two years.
Taken together, these staple foods are more than enough for their family to survive these unpredictable natural disasters.
Therefore, the rewards of this sign-in system are like chicken ribs to Lu Changge.
However, the consecutive draws and random rewards are still good.
System: “…”
What else?
Those were added with its own money!
