Chapter 7

Uncle Qin and the boss Qin Hu were not very happy because they had delayed their work in the fields for a whole day to find Zhao Jin'er. They both had dark faces when they entered the house.

I was half unhappy when I smelled the aroma of meat. I was already happy when I heard that Zhao Jin'er actually brought back a fox.

"The quality of this fox fur is so good!"

Every winter when there was no farm work, the two of them would go into the mountains with their traps to try their luck. However, they only caught rabbits and roe deer at most, but never such a precious thing.

"Girl Jin, you're not lucky! You've been tired all day, let's have dinner!" Mrs. Qin said while serving the meal.

Seeing her busy, Wang Fengying and Liu Meiyu didn't dare to be idle, so they also helped serve the dishes and set the chopsticks.

Zhao Jin'er couldn't help, so she put two bowls of broth into the earthen pot. She gave Miaomiao a bowl first, and then said, "Mistress, uncle and aunt, I'll give Ah Xiu a bowl of soup first."

Mrs. Qin smiled and nodded, "Go ahead, that kid has been worrying about you all day and didn't even eat lunch."

Zhao Jin'er was slightly startled. Ah Xiu was worried about her all day?

When they got to the room, they saw Qin Muchiu leaning on the bedside with an anxious look on his face, coughing and looking towards the door from time to time.

Seeing her coming in, he showed a smile at first, and then said seriously, "Why did you run into the mountains by yourself? Don't you know there are many jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains? If I encounter them, I will eat you in one bite!"

Although his tone was reproachful, he obviously heard what they said outside.

Zhao Jin'er is not angry at all. She is not a ungrateful person and knows that people are caring about her.

"I won't dare to do it next time."

Her voice was soft, her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she looked pitiful. Qin Musiu couldn't bear to blame her anymore, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

Zhao Jin'er put down the bowl, walked to the bed, stretched out her shoulders and helped him out of bed, "I have stewed some broth for you. Drink some of it. The soup is easy for digestion!"

Qin Muxiu was even more frustrated. This little daughter-in-law was only as old as Zhenzhu. Zhenzhu couldn't even do a housework thoroughly, but she was already thinking about going to the mountains to share the burden for the family. He couldn't bear to scold her.

That night, everyone in Lao Qin's family was very upset.

Zhao Jin'er was so exhausted during the day that she went to bed early and fell asleep.

Qin Muxiu looked at her huddled figure, and doubts arose in his heart again:

Just like yesterday, she stopped coughing as soon as she entered the door.

I thought it was because her body and bones were gradually getting better, but during the day when she was not at home, she kept coughing as before...

Early the next morning, Zhao Jin'er was woken up by Qin Muxiu.

I thought I had overslept, so when I looked outside, I saw that the genius was bright. Thinking that Qin Muxiu probably wanted her to help Mrs. Qin make breakfast, she got dressed and got out of bed without saying a word, brought Qin Muxiu a cup of hot tea and went to the kitchen.

.

When they got to the kitchen, they saw Mrs. Qin waiting there again, "Breakfast is already prepared. Girl Jin, please take a quick bite. After that, we will go to the town to go to the market."

Zhao Jin'er looked confused, "Going to the market?"

She has never been to the town since her father died, and has almost forgotten where she drove.

"We don't know how to handle this fox skin. It's worthless if it's cut. After much deliberation, I decided to take it to the fur shop whole, so I can't delay it. It's not too cold yet. It will stink after two days."

While the grandfather and grandson were talking, Wang Fengying led Qin Pearl in, "This town is seven or eight miles away from our home. My mother's legs and feet are not good, so let me and Pearl go for this trip!"

Wang Fengying was planning last night: If Mrs. Qin sells this fox skin, she won't get a cent. What if she can be allowed to sell it...

After the geese have plucked their feathers, who knows if they will be removed a little bit.

Mrs. Qin glared at her, "If you leave, who will take care of the housework?"

"Isn't there some beautiful jade here?"

"Miaomiao ate too much meat last night and had diarrhea several times during the night. Don't you know? Meiyu has to take care of Miaomiao!"

Mrs. Qin retorted immediately, "Not only do we have to clean up the housework, but the firewood in the yard is almost empty. Please help me pile up the firewood today. Don't be lazy!"

With that said, he put the basket on his back and pulled Zhao Jin'er away.

Looking at their backs, Wang Fengying and her daughter were so angry that they stamped their feet.

"What kind of eye drops did this girl put on the old woman? Why do you look at the old woman so hard?"

Qin Zhenzhu had been looking forward to going to town to buy two strings of beads for several months, and she hated it so much.

"You are so stupid, you mistake a broom star for your lucky star!"

Besides, Zhao Jin'er felt very sorry for following Mrs. Qin, "Mistress, why don't you take Auntie and Pearl there? I'll take care of lunch."

Mrs. Qin rolled her eyes at her, "I just made an excuse not to take them. It's not because I'm afraid that no one will be busy at home."

Zhao Jiner was stunned, this...

Seeing her confused look, Mrs. Qin smiled kindly and said, "Silly girl, don't you know what day it is today?"
