MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 123
Lu Gu's eyes were wet. In fact, he never liked to cry. Only when he was beaten could he hold back his tears. Now that he saw Shen Xuanqing laughing, he tried his best to hold back the tears.
"What's the matter, sister-in-law and eldest brother were born late, and they only conceived this year, so don't worry." Shen Xuanqing couldn't see her husband's tearful appearance, her heart softened, and even her voice slowed down.
"Yeah." Lu Gu nodded heavily, his nasal voice sounded muffled, and the tear in his eyes finally fell out, so he raised his hand to wipe it embarrassedly.
Shen Xuanqing glanced at the two in front and said in a low voice, "Okay, let's go back."
Lu Gu wiped away the tears, didn't speak, but followed him obediently.
On the way, the four of them didn't forget to buy meat. They walked around Meng Dayue's house and brought back three pieces of meat.
When they got home, Ji Qiuyue and Shen Yaoqing didn't say much, and Shen Xuanqing naturally wouldn't tell Wei Lanxiang that Lu Gu was not easy to conceive, so as not to make Lu Gu feel uncomfortable, this kind of thing could not be rushed.
In the new house, Lu Gu was squatting next to the chicken coop, chopping grass, listening to the cooing of the hens.
The original large chicken coop was divided into two parts, one large and one small. The hens and chicks could only wander around on the small side. The fence used for separation was the old fence of the old house. Now, the fence doesn't work either.
He and Shen Xuanqing turned over the large open space, sprinkled grass seeds and rapeseeds, and covered the soil. After watering, they would grow out in a few days.
Chickens like to use their claws to dig in the gravel and soil, so they can only be temporarily separated, otherwise the grass and rapeseeds will definitely be turned out and eaten by them.
Shen Xuanqing came in through the back door with a wooden bucket. He went to the river to fetch some water, and the boy followed him into the fence. He took a gourd and watered it, and said, "Go up the mountain slowly tomorrow, bring some more. An egg, remember to eat one every day."
"Well, I know." Lu Gu agreed, he didn't forget what Wang Langzhong said, the eggs laid by the little hen are enough for him and Shen Xuanqing to eat one every day.
As he spoke, he dragged the two chicken food pots next to him, pushed the chopped grass into it, stirred it with the wheat bran in the pot, and brought it to the big and small hens.
As soon as the food bowl was put down, chickens, big and small, came around. It can be said that the food bowl was surrounded by water, and they bowed their heads and cooed to peck.
Lu Gu glanced at the water basin and said, "There is not much water."
"Here." Shen Xuanqing scooped a scoop from the wooden bucket and handed it over.
After pouring the water and land valley, he rested in place. He watched Shen Xuanqing watering for a while, and was a little dazed. After he recovered, he said, "I'll bring some grass for the cattle and sheep back."
"Well, bring the dog." Shen Xuanqing straightened up and said.
Lu Gu picked up the bamboo basket on the ground, called out a good boy, and the two of them went out the back door.
Shen Xuanqing watched his figure disappear outside the door, looking both melancholy and helpless, and sighed in a low voice. Today, he was too anxious. He thought he couldn't detect his pulse. He wanted to ask Wang Langzhong for a diagnosis. Not pregnant, who would have heard those words.
Even if it doesn't matter what he says, he will inevitably be a little concerned in his heart. He is like this, let alone Lu Gu. It's better to be busy, so as not to think about it.
It has always been a matter of course and right to have a biological child. All ancestors came here like this. What Shen Xuanqing has seen and heard in Qingxi Village is also the same. Naturally, he will look forward to it. Ji Qiuyue has not been pregnant since he got married. Lu Gu is a little different.
He had heard people say that such children and women who were not able to bear children or could not bear children would be abandoned by their husband's family if they were not able to conceive most of them.
So after returning home, he didn't even dare to talk to Weilan Shanti, and he didn't know what he was afraid of. Now that he cleared his mind, he still felt that he couldn't let more people know.
He frowned slightly, thinking to himself, with the temperament of mother, if you know that Lu Gu is not easy to conceive, even if you don't make a noise in front of Lu Gu, you have to make trouble with him behind your back. On, it is estimated that there will be some quarrels, after all, the offspring is a big deal.
Shen Xuanqing let out a sigh of relief, but he was not afraid of arguing, and he would bear it when he quarreled. What he was most afraid of was the word "hug and abandon".
Lu Gu has a weak temperament. At the beginning, his life in the Lu family was really miserable, and he couldn't even eat. Not to mention that he had cut off contact with the Lu family. If Lu Gu really left him, he would not be able to live.
Thinking like this made his heart feel inexplicably painful. It felt really bad and blocked, but it was only a few breaths, which made his heart sour and unbearable.
In any case, they must not embark on the road of abandonment.
After he was relieved, Shen Xuanqing thought for a while to find an excuse. If Wei Lanxiang asked, he would say that he had no money in his hand, and he did not want Lu Gusheng. .
Anyway, in my mother's eyes, he has always been stubborn. As for whether he believes it or not, it's fine if he kills the reason and doesn't change. The rest will take a step by step. After two years, when Lu Gu's body is healed, he might give birth to several.
People can't go to the horns, otherwise the more they think about it, the more suffocated they will be.
Shen Xuanqing has grown up to this age, has suffered from lack of money, suffered cold eyes from others, and naturally has a bit of open-mindedness in his heart. , I felt that the money in my hand was really not enough, and the excuse suddenly became true.
After watering, he threw the gourd into the bucket and went out to find Lu Gu.
By the river, the boy was burying his head and licking the water, his tail twitched from time to time, Lu Gu was tired from bending over, and stood up with his sickle in his hands to rest. Seeing the boy looking behind him, he let out a whimper. Xuan Qing.
"I'm coming." Shen Xuanqing approached, took the sickle in his hand, picked up the green grass that the calf likes to eat, and cut a small half basket in a short while.
After the bamboo baskets were stuffed with grass, the sun was covered by clouds and it was not very hot, and the two of them sat on the stones by the river to rest.
Lu Gu curiously watched Shen Xuanqing weave something with straw and asked, "What is it?"
"Wait for you." Shen Xuanqing said with a smile.
He looked at it for a while, raised his hand and touched the boy's head again, and saw a few snails lying on the rocks by the river, he walked a few steps forward, found a stable rock and squatted down, touching the snails one by one.
The snails have not yet reached the season of meat and fat, and there are still a belly of them. They are not very delicious, but they can be touched back and broken into pieces for chickens to eat.
He touched it vigorously, and turned over the stones in the water and threw them to the shore one by one.
Seeing that he was so busy, Shen Xuanqing paused with his hands, and the corners of his lips raised into a smile.
Today, Wei Lanxiang was putting ducks not far away, and when she saw the two of them here, she drove the ducks over with a bamboo pole. She also carried a basket of grass for the rabbits.
"Mother." Lu Gu shouted. He kept turning the stone and saw his little duck swimming towards the river and swimming towards him, his face became more and more smiling.
"How are you going to touch the snails now? It's not delicious, it's all boys." After Wei Lanxiang finished speaking, seeing her second son playing with grass, she couldn't help but tilted Shen Xuanqing. Weaving.
Hearing this, Lu Gu threw the wet snails in his hands to the shore, and said with a smile, "I touched them for chickens, and I went back and smashed them for them to eat."
Ducks swim around in the water and don't care, they will naturally find snails and small fish to eat. When Wei Lanxiang heard about feeding the chickens, she found a place nearby and squatted down to touch the snails.
Chickens and ducks are precious at home, and food and drink must be served well in order to lay eggs well.
Without the cloud cover, the exposed sun made people narrow their eyes, and it would be cooler to soak their hands in the river water.
Shen Xuanqing bowed his head and made up the grass without saying much, but seeing Wei Lanxiang's kindness to Lu Gu, she could put a snack.
"That's enough." Wei Lanxiang glanced at the snails on the shore, got up and rubbed the water droplets on her hands, and said to Lu Gu, "It's time to feed the rabbits. Are you cutting grass for cows?"
"Well." Lu Gu nodded and said, "Mother, I'll go back with you."
As he said that, he went to see Shen Xuanqing.
Without a word, Shen Xuanqing knew what he meant and said, "I'm looking at the duck, you two go."
After getting busy, the days are no different from before, except for the depression in my heart.
And this stagnation dissipated a lot after Shen Xuanqing gave him a straw grasshopper. Shen Xuanqing was so skillful that he even got out the two slender whiskers on the top of the grasshopper's head, trembling with his hands.
Lu Gu was surprised and delighted. When he touched the grasshopper's whiskers, his eyes were filled with joy. This thing is played by children. When adults play it, they will be said to be frustrating. That's why Wei Lanxiang looked at Shen Xuanqing before. unhappy.
"It's really like it made up." He couldn't put it down, and he didn't hesitate to praise it.
Her husband loves him so much, and Shen Xuanqing's heart surged with pride, but he restrained himself, and said in a low voice, "Just be happy, don't think too much about other things. With me here, I will never make you feel wronged."
Only then did Lu Gu know that Grasshopper was trying to make him happy. He was so happy that he couldn't even utter a word. He felt a warm current in his heart, which made his hands and feet seem to be happy. , Because he was so happy, he even stumbled a bit, nodded his head and said incoherently: "Okay, don't think too much, don't think too much."
Wei Lanxiang went out to put ducks, and there were only the two of them in the new house.
Lu Gu touched the grasshopper in his hand, where he wanted to put it. It was given to him by Shen Xuanqing and could not be taken away by others.
"This one of mine, and your grasshopper Liu Fang, which one is better?"
While thinking about it, he suddenly heard Shen Xuanqing mention Brother Liu Fang, and he looked up blankly.
Brother Liu Fang was a playmate when he was a child, and he never saw him again when he grew up. Only on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month when he went to the town to see the lanterns, he remembered it when he was talking to Shen Xuanqing at night.
"Just say, which is better?" Shen Xuanqing tried his best to speak as if nothing had happened, but everyone could hear that he was bound to have an answer.
Brother Liu Fang, Brother Liu Yuan, that's his generosity, he didn't care too much about Lu Gu, if he met a man with a small heart, he was afraid that the world would be turned upside down, he just remembered what Liu Fang gave to Lu Gu. The valley weaves grasshoppers, and the grasshoppers are also caught to weave grass cages.
But at that time Liu Fang was only a child, so what could he make up as good-looking as him?
Shen Xuanqing slandered inwardly, but did not show it on his face. He didn't even reveal a bit of bitterness towards Liu Fang in his mouth. He didn't even notice the vinegar smell that was about to overflow from the bottom of his heart. .
Lu Gu knew that he was stupid, but he was not stupid. Shen Xuanqing took the trouble to make grasshoppers for him, so that they were so flexible, so he squeezed the grasshoppers in his hand, and the answer was a crispy student: "This is good."
He smiled and curved his eyes, so that the tall man who pretended to be calm was caught off guard. The tight jawline and sharp eyebrows eased in an instant, and the originally sharp eyes lit up, shining like stars.
