It's useless if Qu Zhongdong doesn't agree, because it's not them who have the strength in numbers this time. Because of this, he received a series of rolls of eyes from Yue Cuiyun, and several children also stared at him silently, not to mention resentful eyes.
"Baby, come on, come here and give grandpa a shoulder..." Qu Zhongdong simply turned around and stopped looking at them. He waved to Xiao Qu Ning and then patted his shoulder. He just wanted to turn over what happened just now.
Xiao Qu Ning cooperated very well. She ran outside and moved her usual small bench behind Qu Zhongdong. She had to step on it to be higher than grandpa's shoulders, and press it to make it stronger. With a soft and white face, Xiao Qu Ning was rubbing, pinching, beating, patting, and pressing. Her little hands were busy working non-stop. She looked very serious. Because of this, sweat started to form on her forehead after a while. , the little face also became pink.
If Qu Zhongdong had a tail, it would probably be flying up to the sky right now. He especially enjoyed the envious and jealous looks cast by everyone.
Seeing Xiao Qu Ning busy and busy, circling around Qu Zhongdong like a little bee, everyone's hearts are sour and soft. This sour energy is of course directed at Qu Zhongdong. When he turns to Xiao Qu Ning, their hearts almost turned into a puddle of water.
Especially Qu Zhongchun and the others, they were really excited. They started asking Comrade Guosheng about what they could do to earn family work points. Everyone else said that whether it was choosing vegetables, washing vegetables, boiling water, or washing clothes, they could always find one or two things they could do. However, after listening to all the tasks that could earn work points, Qu Zhaowu could not find one that was particularly suitable for him.
"Can hunting be included in this? How can I share more meat with my family then..." Qu Zhaowu thought for a moment and decided that this was the job that suited him. Seeing that everyone was frowning and struggling, he added more fuel to the fire, "It's time for you to run away, baby. You need to keep up with your nutrition!"
"Forget it!" Everyone nodded in unison. They were particularly easy to talk to when it came to Guobao.
"Don't worry, everyone, my hunting skills were acquired by hunting wolves in northern Xinjiang. Trapping rabbits and catching pheasants is a trivial matter. Just keep it safe and you can catch it accurately." What Qu Zhaowu said is not watery at all. . A few years ago, wolves were infested in northern Xinjiang, destroying countless livestock raised by herdsmen. He led his troops several times to eliminate the wolves. As for the hare, it would be better to catch it.
"Wow, hunting a wolf?!"
"Uncle, you are so awesome!"
"Tell us, how did you fight?"
"Yes, yes, uncle, tell us about it!"
These boys were not the only ones who were curious. Little Qu Ning's ears were pricked up at this moment, and her little head was twisted towards Qu Zhaowu. The little fist that hit Qu Zhongdong on the back fell slower and slower, and the force became weaker and weaker. , and finally stopped altogether.
She really wants to hear it too!
Qu Zhongdong felt stuffed in his heart, isn't it just hunting? I can do it too!
"Okay!" Of course Qu Zhaowu would not refuse the children's request. He collected some interesting things from his memory, people who impressed him, and the desert and Gobi with a different style in the desolation.
Qu Ning was so fascinated by what she heard that she unconsciously jumped down from the bench, getting closer and closer. She squatted next to Qu Zhaowu, holding her chin with her soft little hands, which were as big as black grape grains. His eyes were clear and clean, all focused on Qu Zhaowu.
The desolate desert, the sky full of yellow sand, the Populus euphratica forest is outstanding, and the sound of camel bells is extremely sweet. How beautiful! However, in Qu Zhaowu's description, this beauty coexists with murderous intent, wolves are causing harm, bandits are incessant, and foreign elements are causing trouble. Northern Xinjiang is not peaceful.
Qu Ning and the others were mesmerized. Sometimes they gasped, sometimes they screamed, sometimes they jumped in anger, sometimes they gnashed their teeth, sometimes they were filled with pride... They completely entered the world that Qu Zhaowu had described to them. When they were driven to bed, everyone was still unfinished and strongly requested Qu Zhaowu to explain it to them tomorrow.
In the dead of night, Qu Changhu was tossing and turning on the kang, unable to fall asleep, and even Gu Xiaonian became energetic.
"What's wrong with you? Is there something on your mind?" Gu Xiaonian asked.
"You think, should I become a soldier?" Qu Changhu turned over and faced Gu Xiaonian face to face.
"I don't have a fever..." Gu Xiaonian raised his hand and put it on Qu Changhu's forehead, and then put it on his own, "Do you think you are still a young man of 17 or 18? How old are you now? The army is still Why do we recruit you? Are you here to take care of yourself?"
It hurts my heart!
But he didn't care about it at the moment, "I just feel that Guabao admires soldiers very much. When his eldest brother talked about suppressing bandits, Guabao's eyes shone. He was a hero on the left and admired on the right. He wished he could I praise my eldest brother to the sky, hmph, she has never praised me so much for being such a good girl, I am still her daddy!"
To put it bluntly, he was jealous.
"If this continues, my favorite person will no longer be me!" Qu Changhu had a special sense of crisis, so he was anxious and couldn't sleep.
“No, you’re overthinking—” Just when Qu Changhu grinned after hearing this, Gu Xiaonian stabbed him directly in the heart, “Guobao’s favorite person has never been you. "
Qu Changhu felt that he could no longer continue talking today. What he wanted was comfort, not a knife. But who said he still wanted to talk, so he could only endure it, "What if she wants to marry a soldier in the future? What should we do? The nearest army to us is dozens of miles away. If it is farther away, she will definitely have to Follow the army, what should we do? What if we are like the uncle and aunt who are not allowed to go home for more than ten years..."
The more he talked, the more excited he became, so he simply lifted the quilt and got up.
"You are thinking too far. My dear baby is 7 years old now, not 17!" The night was still a bit cold at this time of year. The cold wind that came in aroused goose bumps in Gu Xiaonian, and she was so angry that she twisted her head hard. Chang Hu asked him to calm down, "Also, you don't care who Guabao marries and where she marries. The most important thing is that she likes her. Anyway, I will follow her wherever she goes, and you will follow her to have fun with her. Spend time with Xiangxiang."
"Why, I won't do it! I also want to follow Guobao -" Qu Changhu's opinion got louder, "I still have to support Guobao!"
"What if she marries a soldier, how will you support her? Little old man!" Gu Xiaonian smiled.
Okay, the topic has come back again!
But this time Qu Changhu didn't say anything. He already had an idea in mind - don't be afraid, as long as there is such a sign, he will cut it off as soon as possible! !
In this way, the night passed, and the Qu family ushered in the morning of a new day amidst the crowing of the big rooster. At six o'clock, it was already dawn. The small rapeseed in the courtyard looked very energetic with its leaves sticking out. The leek seedlings had grown very tall and had a thick, dark green shape. The tomato seedlings were leaning on the thin trunks. , spreading branches and leaves, and clusters of peach and apricot blossoms are like clouds...
Qu Zhongchun stood at the door of the main room with a cane. He couldn't help but take a deep breath. He felt that his mind was clearer than before, and his body felt a little more relaxed. He went to bed at ten o'clock last night and slept until just now. He didn't even dream in the middle, and slept soundly for nearly eight hours.
It seemed like he had never experienced this feeling before. When he was young, he was busy with the revolution. After he retired, he started to worry about his son and grandson. After finally waiting for his grandson to get married and have children, he fell ill...
"Grandpa, morning, morning~" Qu Zhongchun was sighing with emotion when the door curtain of the west wing moved and little Qu Ning poked her little head out and greeted him with a sweet smile.
"My dear, why are you up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Qu Zhongchun was still wondering. Don't all little babies like to sleep in? !
Qu Ning opened the curtain and stepped out. She shook her little head and replied, "Grandpa, I've had enough sleep!"
After saying this, she ran to Qu Zhongchun and extended an invitation, "Grandpa, let's go feed the piglets together. They are so fun!"
How could Qu Zhongchun say no, "Okay, okay, grandpa and darling will feed him together!"
The grandfather and grandson reached an agreement instantly.
The basket containing pigweed was next to the pig pen. Xiao Qu Ning first grabbed a handful and handed it to Qu Zhongchun, and then took a handful herself. Because she was short, she had to stand on the feeding platform. .
"This year we have four little piglets at home, so that during the Chinese New Year we will have lots of bacon ribs, several pig knuckles, and sticky, soft and delicious pig tails to eat!" Xiao Qu Ning said as she spoke. Raising her hand, the handful of pigweed in her hand fell into the circle.
Then, the four little piglets in the pen rushed towards the handful of pigweed. You bumped into me, and I squeezed yours, and they had a lively fight. Seeing that the slimmest piglet was squeezed out of the ring first, it was so angry that it kept grunting and swishing its short tail.
Qu Zhongchun subconsciously threw the pigweed out of his hand and shouted a few times. Xiao Slimming might have heard his shouts, and his ears pricked up. He followed the smell and found the handful of pork that Qu Zhongchun threw in, and ate it loudly, wagging his tail even more happily.
At this time, Nan Ting and Luo Quan came over happily, "Grandpa, dear aunt, you are feeding pigs! Let us help you!"
The two little brothers each grabbed a large handful of pigweed from the basket, and then poured it into the basket. They kept calling the names they had just given to the piglets, "Come on, come on, Black Flower, come and eat! There it is!" There, Xiaojuan, go and grab it..."
However, there was no piglet to grab it. They spread their hooves, stepped directly over the pigweed thrown in by the two brothers, and ran towards the direction of Xiao Qu Ning - the humming sound seemed to be coquettish, short and concise. The fleshy tail is about to throw out its afterimage.
"Are they all full?" Qu Luoquan scratched his head and forced his respect.
"What's enough to eat? Guaibao and I just fed them two handfuls -" Qu Zhongchun felt like a mirror in his heart, but he just didn't say, "Did you see that Piglet Zai dislikes you two!"
Just at this time, Xiao Qu Ning threw another handful into the pig pen, and the four piglets began to fight for each other again. It was Xiao Slim who was the first to get out. He could only circle around the three piglets pitifully, probably trying to find one. Then sneak into the battle circle to grab the gap. It was so pitiful, but it still wouldn't eat the pigweed the two brothers threw in.
Xiao Slim: Disgusted!
The two brothers were almost furious. Why, being a pig is amazing!
