After listening to what Yao Qiyue said, Li Hong felt relieved.
She chatted with Yao Qiyue in the house for a while before leaving with her grandson.
Before Yao Qiyue could calm down for a while, she heard a commotion in the yard. She pushed open the door and saw Jiang Ye bringing back a little black dog from somewhere.
Xiaobao and Xiaowu surrounded Jiangye and chattered non-stop.
"Where did you get this puppy?"
Jiang Ye stroked the little black dog's fur and said, "There's an old hunter in the village. His dogs have given birth to too many puppies and they can't keep them all, so they're going to throw them into the mountains."
"I felt sorry for him, so I brought him back."
Yao Qiyue sighed and said indulgently, "Then let's build a nest for it in the yard."
Nowadays, a dog eats more than a child. It’s no wonder that the old hunter can’t afford to feed more dogs.
Jiang Ye planned to let the little black dog guard the house when it grew up. Their place was quite remote in the village and not many people came and went.
When they went to work in the fields, Xiaowu and Xiaobao were the only ones left at home. Jiang Ye thought that if the dog barked loudly, the villagers nearby would hear the noise and come to take care of it.
Jiang Ye told Yao Qiyue his idea, and Yao Qiyue didn't think he was messing around: "Your idea is good, then we must raise this little black dog."
The puppy's big eyes were wet, and it was filled with fear of the unfamiliar environment. It looked only over a month old and looked a little pitiful.
It’s no wonder that Xiaobao and Xiaowu love the dog so much. Even Yao Qiyue thinks the dog is cute when she sees it.
At noon, the family gathered in the yard to discuss the name of the puppy. Even Lu Zhian and his wife and He Bolin came to watch.
Xiaobao raised his hands high and said, "I think it would be nice to call this puppy Dabao. I am Xiaobao and it is Dabao."
Jiang Ye glanced at the dog rolling on the ground and decisively refused: "No."
Xiaowu said excitedly, "What about Xiaoba? Our names are arranged in order."
Yao Qiyue shook her head: "No, if you write letters back to South City in the future, your friends will despise you."
Xiao Wu instantly wilted and said aggrievedly, "Okay."
Chen Qingyun's name was more direct: "Why not call him Xiao Hei? I think it's pretty good."
Yao Qiyue nodded, thinking that the name was simple and easy to remember: "I think it's good."
Jiang Ye glanced at Yao Qiyue: "Its mother's name is Xiao Hei."
"That's quite a coincidence."
Jiang Ye rubbed the dog that came to his feet: "No, call it Zhaocai."
Du Yun glanced at Lu Zhian beside him with disdain: "Look at your apprentice's level, it's far worse than mine."
Lu Zhian said with a smile: "Okay, your disciple is the most powerful in our family."
Du Yun glanced at Yao Qiyue and said with a smile: "Compared to you master and disciple, he is still much stronger."
At this time, a little black dog brought vitality and happiness to the small yard.
The midday breeze seemed to blow away the restlessness in people's hearts.
Yao Qiyue looked at the white clouds floating in the sky and thought that the weather was so comfortable that it made people feel lazy.
"Ding-ling, ding-ling."
The post office's bicycle was parked at the entrance to the courtyard. "Are Lu Zhian and Yao Qiyue home? There are letters for you."
Yao Qiyue quickly stood up and ran over to take the letters from the postman: "Give them all to me. Please make the trip."
The postman said without looking up; 'Serve the people.'
"Please sign for it."
The postman left after seeing that the package was signed for.
Yao Qiyue gave him Lu Zhian's letter and opened her own letter herself.
Her letter was her latest royalties. This time, the editor knew she was going to the countryside, so he specially changed the money into a lot of bills and sent them to her.
Yao Qiuyue took a closer look and found that there were cloth coupons and cotton coupons inside.
She expressed her gratitude with a thick stack of envelopes and decided to write a few more articles to repay the editor.
Du Yun looked at Yao Qiyue's moved expression and couldn't help asking, "What good thing happened to you? Are you so moved that you're about to cry?"
Everyone was curious and stared at Yao Qiyue. Even Lu Zhian, who had been silent since receiving the envelope, looked over curiously.
Yao Qiyue was stared at by several pairs of eyes and sat back uncomfortably. She handed the envelope to Jiang Ye casually: "This is my royalties. Let's go to the city tomorrow. We don't have much daily necessities at home, so we'll buy more this time."
Hearing that Yao Qiyue was going into the city to buy something, Du Yun smiled and pulled Yao Qiyue away. She was no longer curious about the envelope in Lu Zhian's hand.
After entering the house, Du Yun carefully took out a small gold bar from the side of his clothes. Looking at Yao Qiyue's shocked expression, Du Yun smiled triumphantly.
"Gold in troubled times, Master's wife is very smart."
"Go to the city and buy some fine grains for Master's Wife. Although your Master hasn't said anything, he hasn't been able to eat much in the cowshed lately. I thought of buying some fine rice and flour to nourish him."
"Use the remaining money to buy some seasoning for Master's Wife."
Yao Qiyue looked at the gold weighing more than ten grams and said, "These things don't cost so much money. Master's wife, you can take them back. I remember everything."
"Give it to me when you have change."
Du Yun grabbed Yao Qiyue's hand and stuffed the gold into her hand.
"Why are you so shy? The remaining money is left for you by Master's Wife for self-defense. If it's on Master's Wife, it might be stolen at any time."
The public security is not good nowadays, and petty theft is common, especially in the cowshed with leaks everywhere. There is no cover at all. More than one group of people have visited there in the past month.
Fortunately, there was nothing good in the cowshed except books.
"Master's Wife, you have given me many good things. I cannot accept your money for crossing the river."
Du Yun said with a smile: "We two have money. Just take it if you are asked to."
Yao Qiyue couldn't refuse, and thinking of buying more daily necessities for Du Yun tomorrow, she accepted the gold bar.
The two came out and found that the atmosphere in the yard was not right.
Chen Qingyun sighed around Lu Zhian.
Jiang Ye's face didn't look good either.
Yao Qiyue sat next to Jiang Ye and asked with her eyes what had happened.
Jiang Ye glanced at Lu Zhian and then said, "My senior brother married Lin Wanru."
Yao Qiyue is a little confused?
Is Lin Wanru a cockroach? She can still get married smoothly.
Du Yun sighed after reading the letter: "You, the eldest disciple, are in the army and don't know what happened to Lin Wanru in Beijing. That's why you married her."
Jiang Ye felt that things were not that simple. His senior brother dropped out of school when he was still in school, and he had met him twice.
As for Lin Wanru, who joined later, he may never have met her even once. How could these two people have any intersection and even get married?
Du Yun was also confused.
