MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 30

This time, I brought not many things up the mountain. Except for a larger bathtub, the others were all food, drink, and sundries. It was not as laborious as last time.

This tub was made by a carpenter before getting married. Although it is not as particular about carving flowers and birds as other people in the town, it is new anyway. It is only used by Shen Xuanqing and the new husband. of great strength.

But after arriving at Shen's house, neither Lu Gu nor Shen Xuanqing had ever used a tub. It was summer a while ago, just burn some water for scrubbing, not to mention that using a tub to take a bath requires burning a large pot of water. It is convenient to fetch water, but it costs too much to burn firewood like this. Firewood is not obtained out of thin air, and has to be chopped up in the mountains. Except before the New Year’s Day, no countryman is willing to take such a big bath.

Shen Xuanqing was scrubbing on the mountain a few days ago. At night, it was colder in the mountains than outside the mountains, but he was fine. If he went further, when he couldn't stand it, Lu Gu would not even mention it, so he moved the tub. When it comes up, it will accumulate dust if it is not used at home.

In the kitchen, Lu Gu is busy cooking and cooking rice wine, which is faster than cooking rice soup. Put some wolfberries and they can be boiled. Shen Xuanqing moves things down, and when the meal is ready, he sweeps the fallen leaves from the yard that have been blown in by the wind. clean.

It was past noon, and their legs and feet were tired from the journey. After eating, the two of them lay on the bed to rest and took a nap.

Lu Gu was accustomed to being held while sleeping, but Shen Xuanqing was too tall, with a hard chest, long legs and long arms, and the slightest exertion of strength made him feel terrified of persecution.

Being able to have a full meal and a husband's hug was at ease and comfortable for Shen Xuanqing. He slept peacefully for a while, and when he woke up, his spirits came back, and his eyes were bright.

He originally wanted to go to work, but the little husband in his arms made it difficult for him to let go. Xu Shi hadn't been in the same bed for several days, his Adam's apple rolled, and he couldn't help but rubbed against Lu Gu's cheek.

Lu Gu was lying on the bottom, his eyes were a little flustered, but he tried his best not to move, so outsiders would have no way of knowing what was going on under the quilt.

Fortunately, Shen Xuanqing didn't really do it in the middle of the day. After a while, he got up and said in a hoarse voice that he was going to the backyard fence.

Lu Gu's face was red and his ears were red, he clenched his shirt tightly and sat up slowly.

When something like that happened at night, Shen Xuanqing was always different from usual, which made him even more afraid. He didn't even dare to say a word, his heart was trembling, his throat was trembling, he bit his lip and dared not say it. No sound, he didn't dare to curl up his body, spread out his limbs and didn't move.

If you put it on someone who knows people and understands fun, he will undoubtedly be jerky and boring, but Shen Xuanqing is like him, how can he understand this, at most, he has seen a few pictures from his peers in the village before getting married. Experience, I can't do those for a while. And right now, it's good enough for him.

The mountain wind blew through the hall, blowing away the heat and embarrassment, and it took a while for Lu Gu to feel at ease.

There was still a pile of dry bamboo and wooden sticks in the firewood room. Shen Xuanqing carried it directly to the backyard, cut it open, and enclosed two places against the wall.

They mostly breed chickens and ducks in the spring, and there are very few autumn chicks, so he spent a lot of time looking for them at the market that day, but he didn't buy much. There were seven ducks and eight chickens. It doesn't have to be too big.

While he was working, Lu Gu boiled water in the kitchen in the front yard, boiled the back end, brought a bowl over, put it aside to dry, and helped Shen Xuanqing insert bamboo poles and wooden sticks into the ground.

"If you put the chickens out during the day, you will find food outside, and the ducks can go into the water. You can eat the grass on the ground or the fish, shrimp and earthworms in the water. If you don't want to let go, just grab some bran and bran. , they can be eaten even if they are soaked in water.”

Shen Xuanqing explained to Lu Gu, he thought for a while and then said: "It's better to put a fence outside and enclose a large area, so as to save the chickens from running far in the woods and encountering a slightly larger thing and being taken away. ."

When Lu Gu heard this, he nodded quickly and said, "I'll be with you."

This is the chicken and duck raised for him, and he is very precious in his heart, and he must not let the things in the mountains go away.

After the fence was closed, Lu Gu drove over the chickens and ducks who were locked in the firewood house, and went into the fence separately.

The chicks and ducks made a tender cry, which made him a little reluctant to leave. He squatted down and touched the chick's head, and the chicks chirped and surrounded him.

When he looked up at the duck ring, Shen Xuanqing leveled the ground with a shovel inside, and when he was leaving, the little ducks lined up behind his feet in a row, as if following a mother duck.

Ducks are like this. If they go back to the water and put them in the water, they are much more attractive than chickens. Lu Gu's eyebrows and eyes are stained with a smile.

Shen Xuanqing blocked the ducklings inside and closed the fence gate, and when he turned his head, he saw a smile on his face.

At this time, the autumn was high and the air was cool. Lu Gu's face was a little rosy under the sun, and his skin was no longer as white and bloodless as before, but became lustrous and smooth.

It would be better to be fatter, Shen Xuanqing couldn't help but think so, but he didn't say anything, even if he said it now, he wouldn't get fat right away.

The fence is considered closed, Lu Gu used soft hay to make nests for the chickens and ducklings, and even the pair of rabbits in the bamboo cages were placed in the backyard. , I came back today and saw that they were all eaten, and they didn't starve to death. Lu Gu pulled some of them before cooking.

Unlike chickens and ducks, wild rabbits can burrow, and they are not slow to dig up the soil. It is better to use a cage.

Before evening, Shen Xuanqing carried a shovel and a long hoe, and Lu Gu took a smaller **** and went to the river with him. After picking a suitable area, the two of them dug a hole to make a pond. Come out to swim for the ducks, the rivers in the mountains are long, if they go down the river, Lu Gu can't find them.

When I was in Qingxi Village, because there were many ducks in the village, I was afraid that I would be caught if I traveled far away, and I was afraid that I would mix with other people’s ducks. If I met someone who liked to take advantage of them, even if I could get the ducks back, I would have to spend a lot of time talking. Shen Yan often put ducks in the pond, and if she was idle and didn't need to hunt chicken grass, she would watch the ducks swim in the river for a while.

Shen Xuanqing used a shovel to paddle a two-meter-square area. The pond was really not small, and they only had seven ducks, enough to swim in it.

Digging a pit is a laborious task. Digging deep will definitely take time. Even if Lu Gu bends over and swings his hoe, he can’t finish digging today.

There are many rocks in the mountains. Fortunately, the old hunter chose a good place. There is a lot of soil beside the river and the forest. When digging down, it is rare to encounter the rocks. All right.

When the sun went down to the west, Lu Gu went back to cook first. Shen Xuanqing rolled up his sleeves and continued to work. Whether he was using a **** or a shovel, it looked strong in his hands. The muscles on his arms were like cast iron in action. Much stronger than ordinary men, and there is no lack of handsomeness.

The smoke rose, and Lu Gu's steamed buns were hot in the pot, and he was cutting vegetables and meat. Even if it was cool in the mountains, the raw meat couldn't be kept for too long.

He and Shen Xuanqing often eat fish and fight birds in the mountains. Shen Xuanqing shoots the slingshot accurately, and can often bring back the birds that have been captured. Wild animals such as hares and pheasants can be sold for money. , I ate it myself, and I saw a meaty smell.

However, compared to these things, the country people are reluctant to eat and drink all year round. Most of them like to eat fatter pork. It is the pork with more fat that makes people feel more fragrant. Lu Gu is no exception. The same is true.

Lu Gu fried the meat with autumn chili seeds, which was rich and full, and also mixed a vegetable melon, which was crisp and greasy, and two bowls of vegetables were enough for the two of them.

You need to be more careful in this deep mountain forest. As soon as it got darker, Shen Xuanqing came back and didn't stay outside.

After all the three dogs came in, he lowered the threshold and closed the courtyard gate, and used a thick tree trunk to hold it firmly on top. Taking advantage of this time, Lu Gu brought all the food to the table.

After washing his hands and entering the main room to see that there was meat to eat tonight, Shen Xuanqing went to the kitchen to get a bowl and poured a small half bowl of wine.

After he sat down, he asked Lu Gu, "Try it?"

Lu Gu shook his head, the wine was spicy, he couldn't drink it, Shen Xuanqing didn't force it, he drank the half bowl himself while eating the meat.

The mountain breeze is warm, and the taste of wine and food makes people feel more at ease, and the good days are nothing more than that.

After washing up and lying down at night, Shen Xuanqing hugged Lu Gu, and smelled that soft breath again. He had only drank so much, and the alcohol that was not seen when he drank became slightly drunk, which made his heart itch and heat up. As soon as he turned over, he pushed people down.

—

In order to dig the pond and the big fence outside, Shen Xuanqing and Lu Gu were busy for three more days. Outside the house, the fence must be tighter than the backyard, otherwise the chickens will squeeze through the seam or other things will squeeze in. It's not good to drag the chicken away, so you need more bamboo. They went to the bamboo forest to cut ten more. Shen Xuanqing couldn't resist it once, so he ran twice.

The pond was dug about one person deep. When Shen Xuanqing was standing in the digging soil, Lu Gu took the hemp rope and hung a basket over the pit, and poured the excavated soil aside. Because the pond was large, Shen Xuanqing was also cautious. , After digging, people stood there not afraid of soil collapse, and after digging, they took a shovel and shovel to pat the soil wall tightly.

After the pond was dug, a small canal was dug from the side of the river to the riverside. The last shovel went down, the small canal was open, and the river water flowed in. In order to make the flow faster, Shen Xuanqing also went from the shore. Moved several large stones to block the river and let the water pool towards the pond.

The few stones were really heavy, and they were pushed and moved, which made him rest on the shore for a while after he got up.

Lu Gu wanted to help just now, but such a big stone couldn't be moved at all. Shen Xuanqing laughed when he saw this. He tried it, and then he turned his head away.

The river was rushing into the pit, and Shen Xuanqing saw him crouching beside the pond and was so thin that he felt pity and wanted to hold him up. After taking that breath, the tall man finally couldn't hold back, picked him up, and lightly rubbed his hair in his arms.

Lu Gu, who was suddenly picked up, was taken aback. Shen Xuanqing was so tired from moving the stones that he was still panting. His strong and broad chest seemed to be scalding hot, and only his big hand pressed on his head and rubbed it lightly, letting his body relax. His face was accidentally stuck to Shen Xuanqing's heart.

Obviously he couldn't see the expression, but he felt that Shen Xuanqing was happy from the ups and downs of Shen Xuanqing's chest and the faint beat in his heart.

Is it so happy to hug him, he is actually puzzled.

It wasn't until he realized that he was being held for a while before he realized that his face was flushed, and he felt that Shen Xuanqing's body was too hot, and the warmth came on his face, and even he felt hot, and he didn't dare to raise his head in his arms.
