The next morning, I woke up to the sound of yelling and cursing from next door again. The Luo family found a new starting point, saying that the Lu family made dummies and cursed the Luo family.
Everyone has seen this with their own eyes and everyone can testify.
Mrs. Zhang and Liu Cuier were scolding back while doing what they should do, such as cooking breakfast, washing cabbage, and chopping cucumbers.
After breakfast, I loaded the ingredients and pots into the car, fetched two and a half buckets of water from the tank, hooked the pole, and pushed the door open while cursing to leave the yard.
Su Ruyi simply admired the rural people's fighting ability in swearing on the streets.
He chased her out the door and grabbed her sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, go see if there are any puppies for sale in the town today and buy one and come back."
Mrs. Zhang stopped the car and cursed in the direction of the Luo family before she even bothered to reply to Su Ruyi's words: "What? Puppet? That's not just someone's female dog that gave birth and brought one back. Who would sell it?" "
Su Ruyi was stunned, oh, you don't want to be a bastard at this time? She was all about buying and selling at that time.
Also, in this era, most dogs are kept for housekeeping purposes, and there is not much demand. If a dog is born, the family cannot afford to raise so many dogs, and it is difficult to kill them, so most of them are given away to others, which at least saves their lives.
Liu Cuier wiped the sweat from her forehead. Swearing was also a labor of love.
She knew her family needed a dog. In the past, I couldn't even support my family, let alone raise a dog. But now it's different. I have a family, but I can't guard against thieves?
Especially the Luo family!
"We haven't heard of anyone having a puppy in our village... Okay, Baozhu and I will go to the town today and ask around. At the worst, we can give them some money and get a dog back as soon as possible!"
Zhang didn't plan to go out today. She wanted to stay at home. What if the Luo family broke in again? Lu Duotian couldn't handle things at home.
The children should still go and do what they should, and Su Ruyi would do the same, go and do her own thing.
Su Ruyi was going to dig herbs in the mountains again.
"As one wishes!"
Mrs. Zhang grabbed her and said mysteriously, "Have you hidden your money? Why don't I dig a hole in your house some night so no one can find it?"
If the Luo family really breaks in, she, an old woman, can't stop her except as a personal ID. They can't let them take away the money she finally earned!
Su Ruyi smiled: "Mom, don't worry. They can't find the money in three bags and they still want to find my money? Impossible! Don't dig holes, I'm afraid of hiding mice."
Mrs. Zhang stood at the door and looked at Su Ruyi's leaving figure, muttering in her heart, yes, then where was the three big bags of wheat hidden?
If she hadn't gone to see it in person, she would have really thought that Su Ruyi hid those three bags in her latrine. Not to mention, it was a good place to hide things, and most people wouldn't think of it...
She didn't go up the mountain with Hu Langzhong today, so Su Ruyi didn't bring her children with her.
She went to the places where Hu Langzhong took her to before and harvested some medicinal herbs.
Inside the space wooden house, three bags of food were quietly leaning against the wall.
She won't give it back. She will sell it in the town later.
In the evening, the Luo family started to curse again, and the Lu family was not a vegetarian, so they replied intermittently. Su Ruyi was tired of listening.
When Hu Langzhong came, the two families would go back and forth, which made the teacher very embarrassed.
Su Ruyi hurriedly stepped forward: "Master..."
Hu Langzhong waved his hand: "You should call me Uncle Hu."
"Uncle Hu, why are you here?"
Hu Langzhong said, why are you here? Isn't that because money is hot to the touch?
"When will your dummy be ready? You can't waste time. Every day you delay will make you lose a day. If you delay like this, when can you start learning?"
It turned out that he was here to urge me to do my homework.
Su Ruyi: "It's almost time..."
Liu Cuier said hurriedly: "I've taken a look, I'll take it out and show it to the doctor!"
As he said that, he ran into the house and soon came out with a dummy that was as tall as a human. Half of it was wrapped in white cloth, and the other half was not wrapped. It looked a bit scary at first glance.
Putting the dummy on the table, Liu Cuier hurriedly asked: "Hu Langzhong, do you think it looks like this?"
If it doesn't work, her man will be stunned. He will ask her several times a day if it is okay. How would she know if it is okay?
The person who knows whether it can work or not is finally here.
Hu Langzhong touched the dummy with his hand, and he was already surprised. The dummy was made better than he thought. He just wanted to simply poke a piece of grass into a human shape, but he didn't expect it to be so finely made, even though there was no nose. Eyes, but the outline is quite close to the human body. No wonder the Luo family scolded them so fiercely. Who wouldn't panic after seeing this?
Wrap the outside with white cloth and draw nose and eyes...
He felt more and more that Su Ruyi's idea was feasible.
"good very good……"
Hu Langzhong nodded in praise, and Liu Cuier looked overjoyed. She looked around the room and saw that the big stone had fallen to the ground.
"I'll come over tomorrow and start teaching you how to use the needle. You make this dummy first. You'll need it in two days."
Hu Langzhong was about to leave, and he smelled that dinner was about to be served. The smell was fragrant, and he understood the jealousy of those in the village.
Su Ruyi hurried into the kitchen, took two cabbage leaves and sandwiched a stack of egg pancakes and ran out: "Uncle Hu, take it back and eat it!"
Hu Langzhong hesitated for a moment and then accepted the offer. After all, it was a master-disciple relationship now, so pushing and shoving wouldn't be a good idea. At most, he could just return the favor and save more eggs at home.
"So many? Your family..."
"Let's do it again!"
"Okay. I'll be here early tomorrow morning. At your house... you'd better leave your two children at home."
To avoid suspicion, although there was Lu Duotian, his legs and feet were inconvenient and he only stayed in the house and never came out.
Su Ruyi: "Okay, I understand."
After seeing Hu Langzhong off, Liu Cuier pouted to the other side of the courtyard wall: "It would be great if Hu Langzhong comes over, and everyone will know that the dummy is not a cursed thing!"
The Luo family said everywhere that the Lu family was engaged in evil things, which made her very unhappy.
Mrs. Zhang stood at the door of the kitchen and called everyone to bring food.
Because Su Ruyi gave all the egg cakes to Hu Langzhong at once, he didn't make any more and just ate the steamed buns.
Mrs. Zhang complained: "You should be more economical. You are such a lavish person... you have already given Hu Langzhong ten taels of silver."
Ten taels of silver!
Hu Langzhong got a big deal!
Su Ruyi said: "Isn't it time for dinner? Besides, is Hu Langzhong an outsider? Once a teacher, he will always be a father. I have to fawn over him."
Zhang laughed angrily: "There is no formality! I haven't taught you anything yet, but you are just trying to protect others."
"Just because a master comes to study with me, I have to treat him well. Mom, Hu Langzhong will be my master from now on!"
Zhang was startled and suddenly felt that his family had grown taller.
The doctor is a very capable person, a person respected by both the superiors and the lower class. He has learned family skills that are not passed down to others. How many people want to learn from others but refuse to accept them? Unexpectedly, he became the master of his own family!
