Sparrows flapped their wings and flew into the sky. The dead branches trembled and many snowflakes fell.
Sangzhi looked in the direction of the sound, but saw only pine branches weighed down by the heavy snow, and no one.
I guess she was just too nervous and suspicious.
Zhao Laidie was beaten so badly that he had no power to fight back. His lips turned purple and he begged for mercy tremblingly.
Sangzhi was tired and ready to take a break, but when he saw the woman trying to get up without permission, he kicked her in the butt again.
The man took another bite of snow.
"I let you go?
The deal we agreed on cannot be changed. I've got the brown sugar, but you have to give me the goose!"
"There's no place like here in this desolate wilderness with all the ice and snow!"
Zhao Laidie was helpless and furious. She thought she had been beaten up and the matter was over, but she never expected that she would still want the goose!
Geese live on riverbanks, along ditches or along the shores of lakes.
Because there is lush grass and trees there, the geese can forage freely.
There is only one like this in the Maoli Brigade.
It was because Liu Gou climbed over mountains and crossed rivers before dawn every day to pick aquatic plants and tender leaves of waterside plants that he was able to grow them to such a big size.
The preciousness of gold is self-evident.
So how could there be something on the mountain?
"If I say there's one, there's one. Stop playing dead. Get up and go find it!"
Zhao Lai Di cursed her ancestors in his heart.
Forced by her tyranny, I could only pretend to go look for her.
The cotton coat she was wearing was from several years ago. It was hard and thin and not warm at all. Standing in the snow, it was like she was not wearing anything.
It was almost half past five and the sky had already darkened. In another ten minutes or so, the night would completely cover the earth.
Aunt Tian warned her that the mountains would be very dangerous at night and that there would be wild beasts lurking around, so she asked her to come back early.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, someone grabbed his legs.
"I fell and broke my waist, and I can't move. Please be kind and don't leave me alone on the mountain."
I originally wanted to blackmail her, but unexpectedly, the situation turned around and I ended up being the one who got hurt.
She didn't want to lose face and beg her, but compared with life, face was nothing.
"Then my goose..."
"for you!"
…
It was already dark and Sangzhi had not returned yet. Aunt Tian was wandering anxiously at the foot of the mountain.
It was not until six o'clock that I saw her from afar, walking slowly towards me, as if dragging something heavy.
"Why so late?"
She breathed a sigh of relief, then looked back and was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
No wonder the person was in such a strange posture just now. It turns out he was dragging someone with him?
The snow was thick and the road was difficult to walk on. Zhao Laidie was heavier than Sangzhi, so it was unrealistic to carry her down. Sangzhi could only pull her back by holding one of her thighs.
Although the thick snow alleviated the difficulties to a certain extent, how could it be comfortable to be dragged back by someone?
Especially there are many small stones on the ground.
And the rugged path that looks flat but is actually steep.
Moreover, the little bitch didn't take the easy way, but chose the difficult way, and she almost lost half her life.
Sangzhi threw the man to the side of the road and left him there, and told Aunt Tian happily.
"Mrs. Zhao accidentally twisted her waist on the mountain. I was afraid she would freeze to death, so I kindly rescued her. But she was so polite that she insisted on giving me the goose.
Auntie, accompany me to catch geese next door."
Aunt Tian knew that Zhao Laidie treated the goose as a treasure and would not give it away easily.
I don’t know what’s going on right now, I just don’t object, as if someone is strangling me.
When she got something good, she didn't ask too many questions and went to catch geese happily.
Mulberry branches let out the bad smell and felt the air became sweet.
When I got home and saw that they had repaired the kang, I couldn't help but sigh, "How fast!"
"It's OK. There are a lot of us. We can wipe the kang surface, clean the kang edge, apply tung oil and sprinkle with reeds. It will only take half a day. But to prevent the kang surface from cracking, we have to let it air dry for two days before burning it."
Sangzhi didn't understand this. After looking around, she found that one person was missing.
"Where's Jiang Yan? Did he go back?"
Speak of the devil, and here he is. As soon as the words fell, a tall man walked in against the wind and snow.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but when my eyes fell on the big goose huddled in the corner, I felt a barely perceptible smile.
There was still a lot of meat left from lunch, so I added some vermicelli and tofu to it.
I fried a pumpkin and paired it with cornmeal steamed bread, which was another hearty meal.
There are many people in the family and the men eat a lot, so there is no chance of leaving any food.
Because the kang collapsed, there was no place for Wang Jianwen and Feng Xiangdong to sleep in the Wang family.
Aunt Tian settled the two of them in her mother's home in the same village.
Ever since the big goose came, the kid Sang Bei seemed to have found a place to rely on.
Mix cabbage leaves with bran and feed them to the geese.
Now I am watching it eating with gusto.
When everything returned to calm, Sangzhi realized that her hands were red.
Now it itches and hurts.
She probably caught a cold in the afternoon. As a doctor, she knew that it was because the body had been in a cold environment for a long time.
This causes abnormalities in the body temperature regulation center and constricts blood vessels in the skin.
The best way is to rub yourself with snow to promote blood circulation and improve the discomfort caused by freezing.
But she was used to being pampered, and when she thought about the ecstasy of being rubbed by the snow, she decisively gave up the idea.
It is more appropriate to use warm water.
She boiled some water in the kitchen, preparing to slowly ease the pain.
As soon as Jiang Yan came in, he saw her taking a deep breath and preparing to put her hand into the steaming iron basin.
He stepped forward and grabbed her wrist.
His thick eyebrows were furrowed, and his tone was serious, "You don't want your hand anymore?"
Although he is not a professional, he knows that Chinese medicine practitioners need to feel the pulse with their hands when taking the pulse.
During acupuncture, the depth of the acupuncture points is judged by feel.
Feel the silver needles jumping and trembling in your muscles.
Because I have seen the magical skill of Sangzhi's hands when she was pinching needles.
So I was a little anxious at this time, and even lost the most basic judgment.
Sangzhi was the type of person who would take advantage of opportunities, so seeing his undisguised worry, he deliberately let out a cry.
Her delicate little face showed three parts of surprise and seven parts of confusion.
"What should we do then?"
Jiang Yan picked up the water scoop and dug out a large scoop of snow from the yard and asked her to rub it in it.
Sangzhi thought about the feeling and declined.
"I'll just soak my hands. You read it wrong. It's not hot water, it's warm..."
In the past, no one doubted me when I told lies, but now that I’m telling the truth, he acts like, “I’m just going to listen to your nonsense.”
Just as he was about to preach again, an idea struck him.
"I'm not very good at it, unless you help me."
Given his conservative and reserved nature, he would definitely not agree.
If I send him away, I can choose a softer approach.
But the other party seemed to see through her provocation.
Jiang Yan rolled up his sleeves slowly.
In her gradually solidified smile.
He grabbed the snow with his left hand, as if anticipating her intention to escape, and grabbed her hand with his right hand without hesitation.
