Chapter 1900: Doubtful Niu Bao

After the female ghost was dealt with, there was no more trouble for the night.

After sleeping until dawn, Chu Daya had no idea that she almost died last night.

However, when I got up, I found a piece of cloth on my forehead. I sat up and held the piece of cloth and thought about it for a while, but I didn't understand what was going on.

When Jia Zhengjin got up, she curiously raised the cloth and asked, "Brother Shunzi, what is this?"

"Oh!" Looking at the cloth strip in her hand, Jia Zhengjin replied, "You had a high fever last night, so I dipped the cloth strip in cold water to help you cool down."

While talking, he went over and put the back of his right hand against Chu Daya's forehead.

"I don't even remember..." Chu Daya looked confused.

"Of course I don't remember. You were so horribly burned that you were unconscious." Jia Zhengjin took back his right hand, "Fortunately, it's no problem now. Next time, remember not to wash clothes at night. The weather is cold and the water is cold. It's easy. sick."

"Thank you, Brother Shunzi!" Chu Daya lowered her head in embarrassment, "I have caused you trouble..."

"Why don't you ask Wang Xu for a day off and rest at home today?" Jia Zhengjin asked.

Of course, I thought it was best to send it to Wang Xu, otherwise the treasure would be more troublesome.

"No!" Fortunately, Chu Daya didn't agree, "I don't have anything to do now. I woke up in good spirits."

Seeing Chu Daya acting very active in front of him to prove that everything was normal, Jia Zhengjin thought to himself that he was almost killed by a female ghost last night, but don't tell you about this matter: "Are you sure you want to go to school?"

"Well! Thanks to Brother Shunzi, I don't feel any discomfort now. Besides, how can we, children from poor families, be so particular?" Chu Daya said sensibly, "Brother Shunzi has to work hard to cut firewood and give it to Mrs. Wang. , replace my Shu Xiu. Don’t say I’m okay now, I have to go even if I’m sick.”

"Okay! I'm very happy that you can think so." Jia Zhengjin was actually afraid that she would agree to rest at home, so now he doesn't have that trouble.

Of course, the female ghost last night made him a little worried.

Where did that female ghost come from? Why did you enter Niu Shun's home?

Why didn't she attack her incarnation Niu Shun, but instead picked on Chu Daya?

The female ghost has been eliminated, will there be other ghosts appearing?

Nothing can happen to Chu Daya now.

Otherwise, the attention of the whole village will be diverted to himself. How will he continue to execute the plan and win the gamble with Niu Xi?

But he has to focus on the gambling game and cannot be distracted.

After much deliberation, I had to ask Nuwa for help.

With Nuwa looking after Chu Daya, even if she encounters danger, she can notify him in time and teleport him there.

Besides, when it is inconvenient for you to come forward, you can also send Huo'er to save others.

After breakfast, he personally sent Chu Daya to Wang Xu's home, and other children in the village also arrived.

Wang Xu and his wife were still having breakfast, two bowls of noodles.

Jia Zhengjin didn't bother him, and told Chu Daya to study hard and try to avoid arguments and quarrels with other classmates before going home and waiting for Niu Xi.

There was still a while before the agreed time with Niu Xi to go up the mountain, and he was having dinner at home.

When preparing the hatchet, Niu Xi's father Niu Bao unexpectedly came over.

"Uncle Bao?" Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised, "Is something wrong?"

Since Niu Bao applied the golden sore medicine and took Qubing Pills, he no longer looked as sick as before.

The whole person looks good and walks like flying.

When he came to Jia Zhengjin, he said directly: "Shunzi, I want to inquire about something."

"About Xizi?"

"Yes! Don't worry, he is still eating, it will take a while." Niu Bao said softly, "Shall we talk in the house?"

"Oh~" Jia Zhengjin did not refuse, and invited Niu Bao into the thatched house, and the two sat down at the table.

"Shunzi! You are the most honest child in our village. Everyone knows this." Niu Bao sat down and looked at his face, "You have to tell me the truth. What's going on with Xizi recently? I always feel something is wrong. ! Is he really chopping firewood with you every day? Or is he doing other things in the name of chopping firewood? Don’t give him a cover, tell me honestly if he is doing something dangerous. , you have to help uncle stop it."

It turned out that Niu Bao was worried about his son. He didn't go out to fool around these days. He went up the mountain to cut firewood and carried it home every day. It was unbelievable.

Ever since he was young, Niu Xi has not been this kind of person. Niu Bao was used to the daily life of the disobedient son, but this sudden change made Niu Bao even more uneasy.

Could it be that the treacherous son bullied Niu Shun's honesty, and actually did some shameful things by going to the mountains with him to chop wood, and then asked Niu Shun to chop wood for him to hide it from the villagers?

That traitor can do anything.

So that's what happened? Seeing the worried look in Niu Bao's eyes, Jia Zhengjin suddenly realized: "Uncle Bao, you are worrying too much! Xizi was indeed chopping firewood with me and did not do other dangerous things. You see, I am not lying to others, right?" "

"You won't lie to others, I believe that. But, my boy can't tell for sure." Niu Bao asked again in a low voice, "He really didn't do anything else? Did you chop the firewood yourself?"

"Uncle Bao, do you think I'm so capable that I chop twice as much firewood every day?" Jia Zhengjin said, "Xizi chops it all by himself."

"That's not right! How could that traitor be like this?" Niu Bao couldn't believe it, "Am I just dreaming?"

"Uncle Bao, in fact, although Xizi quarrels with you every day and it seems that the father and son have a bad relationship. But in fact, he is still very worried about you in his heart." Jia Zhengjin said softly, "For example, after he got the elixir before, didn't he bring it back immediately for you to take? Otherwise, how could you be as energetic as you are now? I heard that the medicine is worth a thousand pounds of red gold, and it would be enough for him to spend a long time if it was sold. But Xizi didn't do that. Instead, he gave you such a precious elixir directly. This filial piety is very clear, but your father and son's communication method is quite special, so it is difficult to express it honestly."

"......" Hearing this, Niu Bao remembered the scene when his son gave him the medicine that day. Although he was still cursing, his purpose was indeed to let him take the medicine.

As Niu Shun said, the kid hated himself on the surface, but in fact, he still valued himself as a father in his heart. If he was really a bastard, he would take the elixir directly to the county to sell it for money, and he could also eat it himself?

Thinking of this, I felt a little warm in my heart.

Looking at the "Niu Shun" in front of him, he said with emotion: "Although I don't know why Xizi has changed so much. But I am more relieved that he doesn't associate with those messy guys. What's more, it's even more rare for him to chop wood with you, Shunzi! Shunzi, can uncle trouble you for a favor?"

"Don't mention whether it's troublesome or not, just tell me." Jia Zhengjin responded in the tone of Niu Shun.

"Xizi has been with you recently. When chopping wood in the mountains, you should talk to him more and tell him not to associate with those bad friends. Also, if he can learn from you, uncle will be very grateful!"

"Uncle, don't worry! As long as Xizi goes up the mountain with me, I will help him turn back."

"Then I'll leave it to you!"
