Chapter 46: A Trick

In the middle of the night, while Chen Afu was dreaming, he was woken up by a golden swallow scratching him with the tip of his wing. The bright moonlight shines through the small window, and you can see the bright little mung bean eyes of Golden Swallow.

Chen Afu said in surprise, "You're back? Where is Qiqi?"

Jin Yanzi whispered, "Qiqi has gone back to the house, I'm here to give a big gift to Fu Ma."

Chen Afu was stunned, "What kind of gift can you give me?"

Jin Yanzi chirped, "I'm a gold thief and I'm visiting that bad guy's house, so of course I have to get the gold. This is an unexpected fortune, so I'm going to honor my mommy."

As he spoke, he flicked his wings, and two large gold ingots fell out. Before Chen Afu could say anything, he flew to the new yard to rest.

Chen Afu weighed the gold ingots and found that each one contained twenty taels, which equaled forty taels of gold and four hundred taels of silver.

Thinking about the evil man, Jin Yanzi punished the rapists and helped the poor. Chen Afu received these two gold ingots without any pressure. She chuckled twice and put the gold into the space. She was so happy that she didn't fall asleep for a long time.

Seeing that Dabao's brows were still furrowed and his little red mouth was pouting, he must have been thinking about Qiqi in his sleep. Her heart felt soft, and she stretched out her hand to gently pinch his little face.

Early the next morning, Chen Dabao opened his eyes and really heard the screams of Jinbao, Qiqi, and Huihui.

He rolled over and ran to the new yard without even putting on his clothes. Under the morning light, Qiqi's feathers became even more dazzling. Dabao went over to hold it in his arms and was so happy that Qiqi screamed "Quack". He also wanted to catch the golden swallow, but it avoided it. It didn't want to be ravaged by him, either lightly or severely.

This also made Chen Ming scream in disbelief.

Chen Afu is secretly happy, and you are even more incredible.

She quietly asked Jin Yanzi when no one was around, if that man found out that Qiqi had run away and lost money, would he find her home.

Jin Yanzi asked, "Who said that his family's financial ruin had something to do with Qiqi running away?" He added, "As long as Chen Dabao carries Qiqi to the county town to show off, they won't be able to find out."

Chen Afu felt relieved after hearing this.

Jin Yanzi asked again, "Mommy, do you want to make money?"

Chen Afu was pleasantly surprised. This little guy finally figured out how to make money for himself? She quickly held it in her hands and said happily, "Of course I want to."

Jin Yanzi stretched his head and chirped, "Then let's take Qiqi to the provincial capital or the capital, it's far away. Sell Qiqi at a high price, then hurry back, and I'll bring Qiqi back in two days." "Qiqi is good-looking and can talk, so she will definitely fetch a good price." Then, she said with an expression: "Look how smart I am, please praise me."

Chen Afu was disappointed for a while. What the hell was this idea? This is a crime!

She shook her head hurriedly and said, "A gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. You can't make money like this."

Jin Yanzi glanced at her and muttered, "Fu Ma is still prude. Isn't there a saying? It doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat."

Chen Afu said, "You have misunderstood the meaning of that sentence. You cannot take it out of context."

Jin Yanzi was unhappy and chirped, "Mom Fu, don't blame others for not helping you get rich. There was once a way to get rich in front of you, but you didn't know how to cherish it." Then, she flew away with a wing.

Chen Afu's plan to make a fortune has been temporarily put on hold.

However, with the addition of more than fifty taels of silver, and a few hundred taels of shady money, her family was already very rich. As a senior foodie, Chen Afu is not willing to treat himself badly when it comes to food. Even if you don’t necessarily eat meat every day, you can still make scrambled eggs, steamed eggs, braised dried tofu, baked white flour scallion pancakes, sugar cakes, etc. in various ways. Even the steamed cornmeal cakes will have brown sugar and dates added to them.

In fact, she would rather eat meat every day, but she doesn't dare to buy meat every day for fear of others seeing it and making comments. I thought it would be better if it was winter and I would buy more at once.

She was happy doing it, while Chen Ming and Chen Dabao were in pain and happy. On the one hand, I am happy to eat, but on the other hand, I feel sad that I have spent too much money.

Chen Afu would advise, "Don't worry, I will find ways to make money in the future. Our family will definitely become a bigger landowner than Gao Lizheng."

During this period, except for the occasional encounter by several men when she went out to fetch water, water vegetables, or go shopping, Chen Afu's life was relatively comfortable.

As a modern person, especially as a modern beauty, it is normal for men to express their affection for her. The problem is that the men who express their affection for her are too unsatisfactory.

One was not as tall as her, and his legs were slightly lame. One is a bit older, about the same as Chen Ming, and has a few pockmarks on his face. There is also a person with a little hair. At a young age, his head becomes "a place surrounding the center", and his hair is tied on the top of his head like a small horn.

The key is that the personal hygiene of these people is very poor, their teeth are yellow, their clothes are dirty, and they still smell bad.

Chen Afu is still quite sad. Is it possible that a woman who has a female household, has a drunkard, and was once a fool can only be remembered by these people?

Being cared about by them is worse than being cared about by no one.

If this was the case, she would rather live alone with Dabao. Perhaps, she can only be single in this life.

When he was not busy, Chen Afu started making quilts and made a few chicken dolls. These are simple things. Clothes and trousers were complicated, and it was hard for her to tell her that she knew how to do them, so she had to wait for Wang to come back and "teach" her.

But Chen Dabao's life is happy. After studying at home for an hour every morning, he would take Huihui and Qiqi out to play. In the morning, I took them to the east side of the village to play. It was an empty place. They were flying in front, and Chen Dabao was chasing behind.

In the afternoon, we went to the west of the village, where there was a lot of firewood, and picked up some firewood by the way. The wheat straw at home had been burned out.

Sometimes, Xiao Shitou and Si Xizi would come to play with us.

Especially Xiao Shitou, who came to Chen's house almost every day. He liked to eat the steamed cakes and scallion pancakes made by Chen Afu very much, saying that they were much more fragrant than those made by his family. He would give Dabao some wooden toys every now and then, such as small wooden knives, small wooden horses, and small wooden ducks, which were polished and painted.

Xiao Shitou said that these were made by his second uncle. This made Chen Dabao's favorability towards Wu Changsheng rise sharply for the second time. The first time it rose sharply was when Wu Changsheng looked down on Chen Aju.

Jin Yanzi was rarely at home, and most of the time she ran to the woods to play. Qiqi and Huihui were unwilling to follow. They had already regarded Chen's house as their own home. They liked to play with Chen Dabao, eat Chen's food, and liked the unique fragrance of Fu Ma even more.

There was a densely forested area in the west of the village, and people who had bad intentions towards Qiqi and Huihui had really been encountered. Qiqi and Huihui are really the smartest birds. When they saw that something was wrong, they spread their wings and flew into the sky.

The man was so angry that he kicked Chen Dabao several times and pushed him to the ground.

Qiqi and Huihui swooped down again, pecked the man several times, and then soared into the sky. The man dared not to provoke them again.
