"Gududu..."

The small copper pot was steaming and the pot was bubbling.

Zhao Jun put his chopsticks in, picked it up and saw pickled cabbage, vermicelli and beef slices between the two chopsticks.

Zhao Jun took the bowl with his left hand and caught the dish, brought it back to him, picked up the dish again, blew on it twice, and then put the dish into his open mouth.

When the food in your mouth is almost chewed, use your chopsticks to pick up a little less chive flower and stuff it into your mouth, and then take two more mouthfuls of rice into your mouth.

The vegetables were covered just now, and the vegetable soup sank into the rice. The soaked rice was warm and full of flavor.

While Zhao Jun was eating, Zhao Youcai, who was far away in Lin Class 42, was also eating. He also ate meat braised with sauerkraut and vermicelli, but the meat in their pot was wild boar.

The only drawback was that there was too little meat, and evenly distributed among six people, each person could not get five slices.

The reason for the six people was that Jiang Ershuan was also there. This dish was considered good in Lengchang, so there was no reason why he wouldn't eat it.

The six of them were chatting while eating, drinking, and Jiang Ershuan tentatively asked the five of them when Lengchang would resume work.

Although Jiang Ershuan didn't have to pay wages to the tenants, he had to feed them. Lengchang didn't make any money every day, so he spent money there in vain.

Mentioning this, Li Chunming and the other two frowned. They were here on a mission. Today was the fourth day and they hadn't been knocked down by the tiger yet, which made them a little anxious.

Also anxious is Zhao Youcai, who came out secretly. Although he thinks he is doing well, there is a possibility of being exposed every day.

What Zhao Youcai didn't know was that his panic had been exposed. Only after Li Dayong returned home in fear did he realize that such a big thing had happened at home.

Huamao and Hualang died, which made Li Dayong feel very sad. Fortunately, Wang Meilan didn't mention that he helped Zhao Youcai lie yesterday, which made Li Dayong secretly relieved.

But when he returned home after dinner, Li Dayong was severely scolded by Jin Xiaomei.

Listening to his father being scolded, Li Xiaoqiao, who was rubbing rhubarb in the west room, said to Li Baoyu: "Brother, why doesn't rhubarb eat?"

"It has inflammation in its body." Li Baoyu's answer startled Li Xiaoqiao, and the little girl hurriedly asked: "How should we treat it?"

"It's okay." Li Baoyu comforted her sister and said, "It'll be fine after a few days of injection."

Hearing what Li Baoyu said, Li Xiaoqiao felt at ease.

But when it was late at night, the four members of the Li family had been asleep for a long time, and the big clock on the wall of the east room had already passed twelve o'clock.

Dahuang, who was lying next to Li Baoyu, suddenly raised his neck and looked at the snoring Li Baoyu quietly.

After watching it for a long time, Dahuang slowly moved forward, put his mouth on Li Baoyu's pillow, and gently twitched his nose to sniff.

Then, Dahuang slowly stood up and jumped off the bed.

When it landed, Dahuang's butt sank and he almost sat on the ground. If this were normal, the first thing Dahuang would do after landing was to flutter and shake his hair.

But at this time, it just got up with difficulty and walked towards the door of the house.

When he arrived at the door, Dahuang turned his head and glanced at the sleeping Li Baoyu, then lowered his head and knocked the door open.

It was late at night, the fire in the stove pit had long been extinguished, and it was a bit cold in the outer room. Dahuang trembled slightly, stepped behind the door, scratched it several times, and closed the door for Li Baoyu.

Then Dahuang approached the door of the east room, lowered his head and sniffed under the door, and finally turned and walked outside.

The door of Li's house is just a door panel. There is a lock on the outside of the door but not on the inside. There is just a piece of rubber nailed to the closing part of the door panel so that it is tight after closing and cannot be pushed open without pushing hard from the inside.

Dahuang spent a long time with his head on his head, and finally pushed the door open. When he came out of the house, Xiaohua, who was huddled in the doghouse, suddenly woke up.

Xiaohua smelled it was Rhubarb, so it didn't bark, but it jumped out of the doghouse and wagged its tail towards Rhubarb.

Dahuang tried to close the door, but because there was a piece of rubber at the door, the door wouldn't close tightly without any effort.

Dahuang had no choice but to close the door ajar and walk towards the courtyard entrance in the vast darkness.

At this time, several dogs from the Zhao family in the east courtyard noticed it. They got up and came out of the kennel, and all looked in the direction of the Li family.

When Dahuang arrived in front of the courtyard gate, the tents in front of the Zhao and Li families were surrounded by wickers, as was the tent door.

The gate of the courtyard is fastened with a wooden stick. This can only protect against gentlemen, but not villains.

Dahuang knocked three times in a row before knocking the tent door open.

At this time, Dahuang seemed to have exhausted all his strength. After he came out of the door, he turned sideways and landed directly in front of the door.

The next morning, when Jin Xiaomei came out of the east room, she couldn't help but frown and muttered: "Why is it so cold today?"

After saying that, Jin Xiaomei saw the door of the room opened a crack.

"Ouch!" Jin Xiaomei hurried over and pulled the door tightly, then went to the stove pit, took the firewood next to it and added it. After a while, Li Dayong and Li Baoyu woke up, Jin Xiaomei was afraid that they would get cold.

After the stove pit was burning, Jin Xiaomei went to the water tank, opened the lid and took a look, and said with a "tsk": "It's all frozen!"

In the water tank, a thin layer of ice formed on the water surface.

Jin Xiaomei used a gourd gourd to break the ice and poured a few gourds of water into the pot. She gasped for breath and muttered, "We won't be eating potatoes today. Give us rhubarb and boil corn noodles to eat."

After saying that, Jin Xiaomei covered the pot and was waiting for the water to boil. She pushed the door open and walked outside with a flashlight.

This morning, she wasn't going to make anything too complicated, so she wanted to make radish soup and put some freeze-dried food on top.

When Jin Xiaomei came out of her home and walked to the door of the warehouse, she accidentally glanced with her flashlight, allowing Jin Xiaomei to see that the door of her yard was open.

Jin Xiaomei's heart skipped a beat, wondering if someone was coming? But then she thought about it, there was a dog in the house, and she would never let outsiders in.

But after she took two steps toward the door, Jin Xiaomei paused and looked outside the courtyard door with wide eyes.

"Dahuang!" Jin Xiaomei shouted and ran quickly to the courtyard gate.

When Jin Xiaomei shouted, the Zhao family's dog and the Li family's little flower all raised their heads and howled toward the sky.

The sound of dogs barking broke the silence of the mountain village.

In the west room of the Li family, Li Baoyu is dreaming.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He dreamed that he and Zhao Jun were taking Hua Xiaoer and Dahuang up the mountain to fight the black blind man.

Hua Xiao'er is a dog. He disappears as soon as he enters the mountain, but Dahuang always follows him.

Suddenly, a burst of dog barking came to Li Baoyu's ears, and Hua Xiao opened his mouth.

At this time, Dahuang jumped forward and galloped forward. Just as Li Baoyu was about to start chasing him, the barking of the dog in the dream and the barking of the dog in reality came together, instantly waking up Li Baoyu.

"What time is it?" Li Baoyu subconsciously raised his head and looked at the window, only to see the darkness outside. He muttered something in his mouth, and then casually touched his side.

This touch was all empty.

Li Baoyu sat up suddenly, hurriedly grabbed the flashlight next to him, and saw that there was no rhubarb on the mattress next to him.

"Rhubarb!" Li Baoyu didn't even wear a cotton-padded jacket or trousers. He jumped out of bed, grabbed his shoes and ran out.

There was no rhubarb in the outer room. At this time, Li Baoyu vaguely heard Jin Xiaomei's cry outside the house. He opened the door and ran outside.

In the two courtyards, dogs barked one after another, waking up Zhao Jun, Wang Meilan, and Zhao Chun.

Zhao Jun put on his cotton trousers, put on his cotton jacket and ran outside. When he came out of the outer room, he heard some movement in the east room and said, "Mom, don't worry, put your clothes on before you come out!"

After saying that, Zhao Jun opened the door and went outside.

At this time, it was still dark, and there was a chaos of barking dogs in the yard. Zhao Jun pushed the flashlight and waved it into the yard. When he saw that it was not his own home, he immediately ran out of the yard.

When he came out, he saw Li Baoyu holding Rhubarb and howling loudly in front of the Li Family Courtyard. Jin Xiaomei wiped her tears with one hand and grabbed Li Baoyu with the other, trying to pull him up.

When Zhao Jun saw that Li Baoyu was not wearing a cotton-padded jacket or trousers, he hurriedly ran towards him.

At this time, Li Dayong also came out. Based on his experience, he could tell at a glance that the rhubarb was frozen solid.

Li Dayong opened his mouth. Unable to calm down for a while, he shouted: "Why did the rhubarb come out?"

Jin Xiaomei gave it a slap and said, "It came out on its own."

At the last moment of his life, this old dog dragged his seriously injured body out of the house and out of the yard.

Li Dayong's cheeks trembled when he heard this, but he stepped forward and grabbed Li Baoyu's arm and said, "Get up and get dressed in the house!"

Zhao Jun also stepped forward and took Rhubarb from Li Baoyu's arms. At this time, Rhubarb was frozen and could no longer be carried into the house.

Li Baoyu was brought into the house by Li Dayong and Jin Xiaomei, and Zhao Jun carried Rhubarb into the Li family's warehouse.

Looking at the rhubarb with red ice in the corners of his mouth and nostrils, Zhao Jun gritted his teeth and turned around and came out of the warehouse.

At this time, Wang Meilan also came out of the house. When she saw Zhao Jun, she shouted and asked: "Son, what's going on?"

Immediately afterwards, the door of Zhao's room opened again, and Zhao Chun came out.

Zhao Jun went to the partition wall and called Zhao Chun across the wall: "Sister, don't come out!"

"What's going on?" Zhao Chun asked.

"The rhubarb is gone." After Zhao Jun finished speaking, Wang Meilan sighed heavily.

Zhao Jun asked Wang Meilan and Zhao Chun to go home, while he walked into Li's house.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw Li Baoyu rushing out. Zhao Jun stopped him and hugged Li Baoyu, saying: "Okay, Baoyu, don't go out."

Zhao Jun knew that Li Baoyu had deep feelings for Rhubarb, but the grief was very harmful to his body. He wanted to go out and see Rhubarb again, and it would be pointless to cry.

"Jun." Li Dayong stood at the window and looked out, asking: "Where are you putting the rhubarb?"

"It's been put in the warehouse." Zhao Jun said, "I saw there was a tarpaulin in the warehouse. I put it there for Dahuang."

"Okay!" Li Dayong nodded slightly when he heard the words, then walked to the edge of the kang and sat down, reaching out and touching the mattress where Dahuang was lying on it.
