Chapter 23
Chapter 23
When Su Qingyun woke up, it was already bright outside.
Opening the door, I happened to see Lu Changge moving out the stone roller from the warehouse.
"Sir, what are you going to do?" Su Qingyun asked strangely.
"Hull the millet." Lu Changge moved the stone mill to the middle of the yard.
Then he straightened up and said, "Breakfast is covered on the table."
"Okay." Su Qingyun responded, and went to the sink to brush her teeth and wash her face.
People in the village husked the millet, and usually carried it to the sun-drying field.
There are two stone rollers on the grain drying ground.
Of course, if you have a stone roller at home, you don't have to take that effort to move it there. .
Arrange the stone frame, and then move the stone roller up.
Moving the sacks of millet to the side, Lu Changge brought the black horse and tied the hemp rope that pulls the stone mill to it.
Next, start millet milling.
With the free labor of black horses, rice milling does not require much effort.
Soon the sack was empty,
After breakfast, Su Qingyun also came to help.
The second bag of millet was also quickly ground, and Lu Changge brought another bag.
As soon as the rope was untied, there was a noise outside the door.
At the same time, the couple heard the call of Dahei Erhei at the door.
"Wow woof woof woof woof woof!!"
Not long after, Xiaotuanzi, who was playing outside, ran in while calling him daddy.
"Daddy! There are... so many people outside!"
Under normal circumstances, if Lu Changge is at home, Xiao Tuanzi will subconsciously call Daddy no matter what big or small things happen.
Xiaotuanzi would trouble his mother's father only when his father was not at home.
Xiaotuanzi ran in and hugged Daddy's calf, "They...are fierce!"
"Don't be afraid, Dad will go and have a look."
Lu Changge re-tied the cloth bag, then untied the horse rope and led the horse to the tree to tie it up.
After doing this, he went to the gate.
Before leaving, I didn't forget to say to my wife, "I'll go out for a while."
As soon as Lu Changge stepped out of the gate, the fierce Dahei Erhei immediately stopped calling.
Then retreat to the master's side.
However, his eyes were still fixed on the crowd.
Especially the few people who came to Lu's house to steal things before.
Those few people who were specially taken care of by Da Hei and Er Hei only felt like a light on their backs at this moment.
The people who came here were headed by the village chief.
However, most of them are aunts and aunts, who are notoriously hot and gossip in the village.
"Lu Orhu is at home..." The village chief forced a smile on his face when he saw Lu Changge coming out.
"Well, what's up with the village chief?"
"There is something to do, that is... a few families in the village lost their chickens and rice noodles last night.
I have searched all the places in the village, and now only Lu Liehu is left here..."
As soon as Su Qingyun came over, she heard what the village chief said.
Even he could understand the meaning of the village chief's words, let alone other people.
Seeing their faces, some people even had an expression of 'the things lost in their house must be hidden here'.
Su Qingyun glanced around, and asked aloud: "The village chief suspects that the things they lost are in our house?"
"This..." The village chief choked on Su Qingyun's blunt words.
"Isn't it?" One of the gossiping aunts glared at Su Qingyun.
"You just came back yesterday, and several families in the village lost their things at night. Where else can you be?"
Su Qingyun laughed when she heard her so forceful and unreasonable.
"According to my aunt, when my husband-in-law and I were not at home, my house lost two chickens, five bags of millet, and the rice, noodles and pickles in the kitchen. You took all these things?"
Su Qingyun changed her gentleness before, and her expression became cold, "Then when you are free, my husband and I can go and get it back."
"The sharp-toothed..."
A murmur in the crowd was not loud, but someone could still hear it.
Lu Changge looked over with cold eyes, and the man was so frightened that he immediately stopped his voice, lowered his head and hid behind the others.
"Here, Lu Hunter, look..." The village chief looked at Lu Changge who was standing beside him silently, wanting him to say something.
"I listen to my husband." Lu Changge replied.
When the other people present heard what Lu Liehu said, they couldn't help curling their lips and secretly slandering them.
The family didn't lose anything, and they came here just to watch the fun, so naturally they didn't dare to say anything in front of Lu Changge.
However, those families that lost their chickens lost their fear of Lu Changge when they thought of those two chickens.
"What's the point of letting us go in and take a look? It's not like going in to get your things."
"That's right, it's so secretive, isn't it because we're afraid of what we'll see?"
Hearing what they said, Su Qingyun was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "Look at you, if you lose something, everyone will know about it, so many things have been stolen from my house, so you didn't say anything?
Wouldn't it be that you want to preemptively call out to catch the thief? "
"you!"
Hearing his wife's speech, even Lu Changge was a little surprised.
His daughter-in-law...has she opened up some kind of Ren Tong's second channel?
How did you become so eloquent?
Because Lu Changge was sitting on the sidelines, in the end, the village head and the gang of aunts and aunts had no choice but to return.
But before leaving, Lin Qingrou, who was walking at the back, looked back.
She was sure that the missing things in the village must have something to do with Lu Changge.
Because the families who lost their things were the ones who went to Lu's house to steal things.
"Why didn't you make a sound just now? Our family lost six taels of silver, it must be..."
The woman walking beside pulled Lin Qingrou's clothes.
For them, six taels of silver can support their family for a long time.
"Shut up! Don't talk!" Lin Qingrou's expression turned cold when she heard what her mother said, and she hurriedly dragged her away.
"That's how you talk to your mother..."
Listening to the woman's insults, Lin Qingrou's eyes were full of impatience.
It's all a bunch of idiots!
She caused so much trouble when she first arrived.
Seeing them leave, Lu Changge turned and closed the door.
Su Qingyun, who was walking in front, also slowly withdrew from the hot-headed state.
Recalling her every move in front of her husband just now, Su Qingyun hissed with regret.
At the same time, he was making a draft in his heart, thinking about how to answer if Xianggong asked him later.
However, Su Qingyun waited for quite a while and couldn't help but see Lu Changge not making a sound.
"Master..."
"Ok?"
"You... don't you want to ask?" Su Qingyun hesitated.
"what?"
"Ask me why I changed so much just now..."
"Hmm...why?" Lu Changge asked along the way.
In fact, he was also very curious.
After all, the only time his daughter-in-law confronted a villager before was when Lin Qingrou wanted to come over to make excuses.
That time, his wife was silenced by the villagers.
Now for the second time, his wife has evolved and can turn people back.
Su Qingyun: "..."
His husband's question is too perfunctory, right?
However, Su Qingyun was anxious to share it with others, so she didn't care about it.
It's true that Su Qingyun is not good at quarreling with others, but he knows how to follow suit.
So, he found a solution.
Whatever those people said, he learned how to fight back.
After listening to Su Qingyun's explanation, the corners of Lu Changge's mouth rose uncontrollably.
"Daughter-in-law, you are so smart."
Cough... Not to mention, this is indeed a smart way.
Hearing Xianggong's praise, Su Qingyun was a little proud and said: "This is called using one's own way to treat one's own body."
[Isn't this what those people said... use magic to defeat magic? ] Erto, who was on the side, heard it and muttered a lot.
"Mofa? What is that?" Xiaotuanzi whispered.
[That's a very powerful thing that can turn you into a pig! ]
"Wow! Really?" After hearing this, Xiaotuanzi's eyes lit up instantly.
Xiaotuanzi and Erto were discussing the magical effects of magic, and the two couples continued to chat and mill rice.
While chatting, Su Qingyun remembered what happened just now.
"Sanggong, who are you talking about that stole their things?"
"them."
"Ah?" Su Qingyun didn't understand.
"The ones who lost things are those who came to our house to steal things." Lu Changge explained.
"Ah?!" Su Qingyun was a little surprised.
"Then the things they threw away are..." Su Qingyun suddenly understood as she spoke.
The things lost by those families were the ones that were stolen from their homes.
"Yes." Lu Changge nodded in agreement.
"Then..." Su Qingyun hesitated.
Lu Changge looked up.
"Have you brought back the diced radish?"
"...I got it back." Lu Zhangge paused, nodded and said.
It seemed that his wife was still thinking about the two cans of diced radishes.
Forget it, tell a white lie.
Hearing that radish ding had returned, Su Qingyun's mood immediately brightened.
It took three days, and Lu Changge finally finished grinding the one and a half acres of millet harvested this year.
After millet is milled, the next step is to separate the chaff from the rice.
In the end, this year, more than 900 catties of millet were harvested and dried, and a total of 612 catties of rice and more than 270 catties of rice bran were produced.
All the millet harvested this year has been shelled.
However, there is still a pile of millet in the storage, which is the inventory that Lu Changge has stored for three years.
Every year, besides what he needed to eat in the past year, he would also store up about [-] catties, and only a little more.
So in the past three years, Lu Changge has collected almost 1500 catties of millet.
In addition, in June before, Lu Changge went to Fucheng to buy grain, and he bought enough rice and flour for two years.
In general, these staple foods are enough for their family to survive this ever-changing natural disaster.
Therefore, the rewards of the sign-in system are like tasteless to Lu Changge.
However, the consecutive signing and random rewards are still good.
system:"……"
if not?
Those were added out of its own pocket!
