Chapter 41 Asking for Welfare
It was only tonight that Chen Afu heard Gao Lizheng, who was having dinner, say that the gold thief had fled to the capital again and committed many crimes. He not only stole the silver building, but also stole the Prince An's Mansion. It was said that not only the people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, but also the Royal Forest Army were dispatched, causing a stir and arresting gold thieves everywhere. At the same time, a reward of one thousand taels of silver was also offered.
Chen Afu was so angry that he gritted his teeth. That little thing was just a troublemaker. Why didn't it steal from the wealthy businessman? Why did it steal the palace? A businessman has too much money and no status, and he has no ability to ask the imperial guards to come forward if something is stolen.
Chen Afu was still a little worried about the safety of that little thing.
The last few times Chen Afu fell asleep, he didn't run into Golden Swallow, so he had no idea it had caused such a big trouble. That night, when Dabao fell asleep, she pinched the palm of her left hand, trying to get him back quickly.
About two-quarters of an hour later, the golden swallow really came back. It entered the space directly and shook out four gold bars.
Chen Afu asked in shock, "Are you still committing crimes against the wind?"
Jin Yanzi chirped and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Mommy, this was not stolen in the capital, this was stolen in Shi'an Mansion."
Shi'an Mansion, the provincial capital of Northern Hebei Province, is about three hundred miles away from here. It can get back in half an hour, which is really fast.
Chen Afu complained, "Why do you have to steal the palace? If you steal from those corrupt officials or profiteers, the noise will not be so big."
Jin Yanzi jumped and laughed a few times, flew around Yan Chenxiang again, then jumped into Chen Afu's palm and murmured, "Fu mother doesn't understand, this is called 'swallow' leaving a mark. I, Jin, Yanzi's visit to Dashun must be a surprise. I have achieved my goal, and I will try not to steal these gold bars from the palace and the silver building." He added. , “Do you know who those people are who bought your sewing kit?”
Chen Afu asked, "Who?"
Jin Yanzi said, "They are the family members of Luoxun Mansion in Northern Hebei Province. Originally, I wanted to steal the woman's big crested hairpin and hide under the window to listen to them talking. Only then did I realize that the family were relatives of the beautiful sister, so I decided No more stealing." He looked very proud of his beautiful sister.
Those people were none of his business, and Chen Afu had no time to think about them. She smiled and said, "How about it, doesn't the house I painted look good?"
Jin Yanzi chirped, "Well, they are very unique and beautiful."
Chen Afu added, "Jin Bao'er, you said you had to accept my love after I painted the house."
Jin Yanzi rolled his eyelids, feeling a bit slanderous about his master's pettiness, and said, "I told you, I will remember your love, and I will find a way to make you a small fortune."
Chen Afu also criticized it for being a small family, getting rich when it gets rich, and even making a small fortune.
She cursed and then discussed, "I don't want to make a small fortune this time. I want you to bring out some green bird's nests for Alu to eat, so that he will suffer less and get better soon. Jin Bao'er, Alu Lu is a good boy, and Mommy can’t bear to let him suffer.”
When Jin Yanzi heard about this, he felt that he was being careless. He said, "Alu is indeed a good uncle, and I want to help him, but his illness does not warrant the use of green bird's nest. After he breaks his bones, take a little bit of the bark of agarwood and put it into his medicine. It can calm the nerves." , relieves pain, and also promotes bone healing as quickly as possible.”
Chen Afu was pleasantly surprised. Even the bark of the tree was so good. That Yan Agarwood was really a treasure. Then he begged, "But I can't go to Dingzhou Mansion. Can you help put the bark on the trees when they are boiling the medicine? Dingzhou Mansion is only fifty miles away from us, and you can fly there in half a quarter of an hour." There it is.”
Jin Yanzi agreed simply, "It's easy to talk."
Chen Afu was so happy that he raised the golden swallow in his hand and kissed it on its pointed beak.
Jin Yanzi was stunned for a moment, then laughed, her mung bean eyes narrowed to a slit, and she said happily, "Fu Ma, you took away my first kiss. However, I am so happy. She has grown so big, and she has not yet Who dares to kiss my mouth? You are brave and appreciate it."
After saying that, he lay down on the ground, spread his wings and continued to have fun, opening his sharp mouth as wide as possible.
Chen Afu realized later that he was quite brave. His little pointed beak was an electric awl.
After kissing them all, and seeing that Jin Yanzi was happy, Chen Afu decided to ask for some more benefits. He leaned over and said, "Yan agarwood has many benefits. Can Jin Bao'er give me some of the dregs? I'll boil some water to drink. Our whole family is not in good health."
The golden swallow was still beautiful. After hearing this, she winked at her and flew up to the tree. With a peck, she pecked out a small wooden stick as big as a toothpick. She put the small wooden stick on the Chen Afu said in his hand, "There is no need to boil it, just put it directly into the water tank. Drink the water soaked in agarwood wood, and I guarantee that your family will get better and better."
Chen Afu was very happy with the "little toothpick", the beauty trap really worked. With so many benefits, it’s more than making a small fortune.
She said shamelessly, "Jin Bao'er, I'm moving soon. If one tube isn't enough, give me another one."
Jin Yanzi was still excited and pecked a small toothpick again.
Afterwards, Chen Afu told Jin Yanzi that these are extraordinary times and he should avoid going out to cause trouble.
Jin Yanzi said, "These things are enough for me to build a house. I don't need to steal gold now. Instead, I want to play with my friends and share the fun of being stolen." Then, a black light flashed. , gone again.
After dawn, Chen Afu secretly put a small toothpick into the water tank. Even if it is such a small piece, if you smell it carefully, there is still a vague aroma floating in the room. Moreover, the cooked rice tastes better and the boiled water tastes better.
In the morning, Wang went to the county town to buy some gifts for Chen Shi's family. In the evening, Chen Ye brought two kilograms of cakes bought in the town and asked them to bring them to Chen Shi. Old Mrs. Chen also brought a piece of clothing she made for her third son, and asked Chen Shi to come back to see his mother and brother if he had nothing to do.
The next day, when they left, Wang put a twenty-liang silver ingot in her arms, and took two silver coins and a few hundred copper coins.
Chen Afu said to Wang, "Give those two silver coins to my third aunt. You will trouble her for half a month." He hugged Alu and said, "You are a little man, you must be strong."
After hearing his mother's story about his uncle's treatment, Chen Dabao also said with tears in his eyes, "My uncle must be strong. Dabao wants to learn from you."
Chen Alu nodded and said, "As long as my leg can be cured, I can endure anything. When my leg is healed, I can study and make money."
After sending Wang and Chen Alu away, as well as Jin Yanzi who secretly followed them, Chen Afu became even busier. He had to fetch water, wash the vegetable garden, wash clothes, cook, boil medicine, and clean up the new house.
On the third day after Alu left, Jin Yanzi, who had returned from Dingzhou Prefecture, said that Alu had been treated for his leg at Qianjin Medical Clinic. The doctor straightened the bone after breaking it, and the pain made little Alu faint. They returned to Chen Shi's house to recuperate. Jin Yanzi had secretly thrown the bark of Yan Chenxiang into the medicine. He would go there once a day for the first three days.
Although Chen Afu didn't see it, he still cried with heartache.
Three days later, Chen Afu felt better after hearing Jin Yanzi say that A Lu had recovered well and was no longer in so much pain.
