Chapter 159
Because this road was all mountainous and dusty, Shi Lin and the three of them were squeezed into the cab this time, which was not enough for them to sit down.
As soon as the tricycle stopped at the entrance of the yard, Ye Meihui couldn’t wait to open the cab door and get out.
Chen Guixiang, who was killing chickens in the yard, saw a tricycle stopped at the door of her house. She got up and walked out of the yard to check with some confusion.
As soon as she left the hospital, she heard someone shouting, “Sister-in-law!”
Taking a closer look, it was Ye Meihui who got off the tricycle and was looking at her with a smile on her face.
Chen Guixiang was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a smile:
“Haha, it turns out it’s Meihui and you guys are here! I thought it was who it was!
This is a tricycle, right? Why do you still have this thing? I heard this thing is very expensive! ”
“Yes, Xiaoliu bought the tricycle. I heard that my mother was sick, so I asked Xiaoliu to drive me over for a visit. I also brought my granddaughter, the eldest daughter of the fourth child.”
As she spoke, Ye Meihui stretched out her hand to hug little Pan’er and said to her,
“Pan’er, call me uncle.”
“Uncle!” Little Pan’er hugged the bear cub and shouted obediently.
“Hey! Xiaosi’s daughter is already so big. Is she holding a puppy? The little girl is so handsome and cute. My uncle will give you some sweets later.”
Chen Guixiang agreed with a smile.
At this time, Shi Lin also moved the car slightly to the side, parked it, got out of the car and walked over, smiling:
“Auntie, you knew we were coming, so why did you kill the chickens in advance?”
“Haha, our Xiaoliu is really promising, we are all driving tricycles!
If I had known you were coming, I would have killed the goose.
I’ll ask your uncle to catch a goose in a while, and he’ll stew a big goose for you tonight! ”
Chen Guixiang seemed very happy and enthusiastic about the return of Ye Meihui and the others.
Ye Meihui smiled and said: “No, no, it would be great to have chicken. I also brought some hazelnut mushrooms, so we can make soup together later.”
As she said this, she asked Shi Lin to follow her to get the things from the trunk.
“You just came here, why did you bring anything with you? After a while, the old lady found out, and it was time to curse again.”
Chen Guixiang said something, put down the chicken and knife in her hands, and stepped forward to help Shi Lin and Ye Meihui carry their things.
This time Ye Meihui prepared quite a lot of things.
Nearly a sack was filled with mutton, wild boar, and badger meat.
There is also a jar of honey, a pack of hazelnut mushrooms, eight Hericium mushrooms, and two wolf skins.
And she was carrying half a wild ginseng, which was an eight-year-old ginseng that had been bitten by a tabby cat before.
The three of them took the things into the yard. When Chen Guixiang saw the two sacks, she opened her mouth and didn’t know what to say.
After a pause, she smiled bitterly and said:
“Why did you bring so many things when you came back? Lao Shi is a hunter, so you can just bring some meat.
Why are you bringing honey, wolf skins, and monkey heads? Wouldn’t it be better to sell these things than to bring them here? ”
“The old lady is so sick that she is lying on the kang. Otherwise, if she sees these things, she will definitely hit someone with a cane!”
ah?
Ye Meihui was stunned for a moment.
So sick that you lie down on the kang? !
She originally thought it was just a minor problem, and her eldest brother and the others didn’t go to Xigou Village to inform her.
Unexpectedly, the old lady was so sick that she was lying on the kang? This is a big problem!
“What’s going on? The old lady is so sick that she’s lying on the kang. Why doesn’t anyone go to Xigou Village to notify me?”
Ye Meihui asked with some confusion.
As a married daughter, although she didn’t come often, she still cared about the old lady and would occasionally ask someone to send something over.
Why is it that the old lady is so sick that she is lying on the kang, and no one has gone to the village to inform her?
After hearing the news, the smile on Ye Meihui’s face disappeared.
Chen Guixiang sighed and said:
“Hey, I’m just too angry, and the weather has turned cold recently. I caught a cold. I guess it will be fine in a few days. It’s not a big deal, so we didn’t go tell you.”
Too angry? Plus catching a cold?
Ye Meihui doesn’t quite understand?
she asked:
“What’s going on? Why did she get so angry that an old lady fell ill? She’s already over 80 years old, so you can’t let her go?”
“Who in the family dares to make her angry? It’s not our family that makes her angry, it’s these things.”
As she spoke, Chen Guixiang pointed to the side where she had just killed the chicken.
Only then did Ye Meihui and Shi Lin notice that there were more than twenty chickens there, all of which had not been killed but were already dead.
“Have you messed with her?” Ye Meihui asked.
Chen Guixiang said: “It’s like this. Your eldest brother and your second brother jointly built a small hill last year to raise chickens, goats, and geese…”
At first, raising chickens, geese, and goats was quite good, and I did make some money.But during this period, problems arose. Chickens raised in the mountains were often lost.
There were more than 200 chickens in total. At the beginning, one or two chickens were lost every day. Ye Meihui’s elder brother Ye Xingbang thought he had remembered it wrong.
Until half a month ago, he found a little weasel biting a chick and staggering to leave his farm.
He woke up!
The farm really lost chickens!
It was taken away by the weasel!
He was so angry that he picked up a stone and smashed it at the weasel. I don’t know if the little weasel was too stupid or Ye Xingbang was so angry that he threw it accurately.
The little weasel was really smashed to death on the ground by his stone.
I sent it to sell for 35 yuan (the purchase price is not uniform, the individual is small and the fur color is different, so it is cheaper), which can be regarded as making up for the loss of the chicken before.
However, the matter did not end there, but just began!
Ever since the little weasel came to steal chickens and was killed by Ye Xingbang, the people of the Ye family finally knew what it meant to poke a weasel’s nest!
On the third day after Ye Xingbang killed the little weasel, the farm was visited by weasels again! This time it was a group of weasels, biting and biting, and a total of 23 chickens were lost.
And it didn’t end there. Every three or five days, the group of weasels would come to wander around and take action when they found an opportunity!
Stealing chickens, biting geese, and even running into the sheepfold to attack the lambs!
Ye Xingbang and Ye Xingguo were in a state of panic, and the losses of the farm were getting worse and worse.
When the old lady at home learned about this situation, she was so angry that she couldn’t sleep. She also said that she would go to the farm to spend the night and guard it there.
As a result, she fell ill before she went to guard it.
Yesterday, those weasels came to cause trouble again. They stole and bit dozens of chickens in one night.
Chen Guixiang had more than 20 chickens, and the second son Ye Xingguo also had about 20 chickens. They were all killed by weasels last night.
Talking about this situation, Chen Guixiang also had a sad face. Not to mention the old lady, several middle-aged people almost couldn’t bear this blow.
It’s too crazy.
In just half a month, weasels came to attack at least five times, and almost killed all the chickens in their farm.
In addition, there were a few small geese, but compared with chickens, the number was very small.
“The old people in the village said that offending Wong Tai Sin would lead to bad consequences, and this has really come true.”
“Last week, your eldest and second brothers asked Chen Cai, who specializes in catching weasels, to go to the farm to catch these weasels. As a result, the weasels did not appear for a whole week.
Yesterday morning, Chen Cai just left, and he came back before dawn… These beasts are really like spirits!”
