MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 40 one more

Ever since I bought chickens and ducks, Lu Gu has listened to them chirping and barking every day, which is much better than a person.

The puppy's voice is not too small. When he is playing, he will purr a few times. He is fat and fat, and his body is shaking slightly when he runs. When Lu Gu went to the backyard, he followed him. .

When he slept last night, the puppy slept with Da Hui in the main room. He was afraid that he would freeze on the ground after taking a nap. Lu Gu packed hay and straw in a sack. Hui also lay down and left the bitch, but slept next to the big dog, accompanied by a company, and the pup didn't bark much at night.

Now that it's colder than before, Lu Gu also put sacks on the two small dogs so that they can squeeze each other at night so that they won't sleep on the ground again.

Shen Xuanqing took the big ash and they went out. Now that the sun is out, it is time to let the chickens and ducks go out to eat grass and swim in the water. When I went to the backyard, I saw that the chickens and ducks had all come out of the grass nest and were walking around in the pen.

As soon as the fence gate opened, the puppy also followed Lu Gu in. When it saw the fluffy chicken, it ran over and wanted to bite, which caused the chicken to flee in a hurry, flapping its wings and chirping, turning into a pot of porridge. Lu Gu quickly grabbed it. It carried it away by the neck to avoid biting chickens and ducks.

Because he wanted to drive the chickens and ducks out of the house, Lu Gu could only lock the puppy in the main room first and closed the door of the main room, but the puppy would keep barking as soon as he left, ooh, ooh, ooh, it sounded pitiful, The more you scream, the more panicked, the voice is not small, if you hear this sound at night, it is quite scary in the silent mountain forest.

Lu Gu couldn't keep it in the main room. He carried the small bamboo basket in front of him and put the puppy in. The puppy could see the person when he looked up, and the barking immediately became quieter. After a while, he stopped screaming, and tried to scratch a few times in the bamboo basket with his claws, and wanted to take a few bites.

The chickens were first driven to the fence outside. They were full after shaving their food for a day. Lu Gu went back and carried a stone mortar and carried a basket of sun-dried peppercorns, as well as a long bamboo pole, and seven small ones. The ducks followed him, lined up like a mother duck and went out.

He drove the ducks into the water. They swam a few times, and they were born with it. Lu Gu didn't need to rush into the water. He put the stone mortar basket on the ground, and then unloaded the bamboo basket on his back. .

He moved two stones and sat on one and placed a mortar on the other, and pounded peppers by the pond. From time to time, he looked up at the ducks in the pond. If they were swimming to the other side of the river, they would pick up the long bamboo poles on the ground and slap the water. The water splashed, and the duck was scared back.

The puppy's skin is skin, but it's still good. He played beside Lu Gu and didn't go far. At first, he wanted to get close to the stone mortar to smell it, but Lu Gu gently pushed it away with his foot, and the pepper was choking. , He himself covered his nose and mouth with a cloth towel, but he sniffed the basket full of peppercorns, and it probably didn't smell good. The wet little nose was wrinkled, and he no longer came close.

Afterwards, the smell of pounding pepper dissipated, and it didn't even go to Lu Gu, biting the hem of Lu Gu's clothes behind his back, still imitating the threatening whimper of a big dog in his throat, but it was so small, and even Children are not afraid.

Lu Gu was busy with his work. As long as he could hear the movement behind him, he knew that he didn't run far. Besides, his hands were numb with the numb smell of peppercorns.

When it was almost noon, he looked at the sky and felt hungry in his stomach, so he went to the river to wash his hands, the puppy kept following him at his feet, following every step of the way. After he squatted down by the river, the puppy still used it. The little head rubbed against his leg, which made Lu Gu smile a little.

—

Life has been busy and fulfilling, but seeing the accumulation of wild goods and prey in the courtyard makes me happy no matter how tired I am.

The mountains and forests are far away, the valleys are deep, and several dog barks echoed. Lu Gu bent down and rummaged through the mountain stream to find the belly purple and green snails. It rained yesterday, and the stream was bigger than before, and it was flowing.

Today Shen Xuanqing came with him, two small dogs followed, locked the door and let Da Hui watch the pups in the courtyard.

Both of them rolled up their trousers and walked barefoot in the stream. Lu Gu came out this time with an extra sack, caught the purple belly and threw it in, while the bamboo basket on the back was filled with green snails, so that they could be separated.

The mountain stream is colder than before. When autumn arrives, the water in the stream will seep deeper and deeper, but the green snail will become fatter, and it will grow old and hide in the late autumn, and it will never be found again.

"If it's cold, go up and rest first." Shen Xuanqing grabbed a handful of belly purple and waded over, and threw the crab into the half-full sack.

Now that he's here, Lu Gu also threw the green snails he found onto his back in a bamboo basket, and they both worked together like each other.

"It wasn't cold when I came down." Lu Gu shook his head. He had just gone up to rest for a while, and it was indeed not very cold at the moment.

Hearing the words, Shen Xuanqing said, "Alright, pick them up again, it will be colder the day after tomorrow, so much is enough to eat for a long time, so I won't use it again."

Lu Gu nodded and agreed.

The two of them went into the water when the sun was bright. By now, noon was over. This mountain stream was brought by Shen Xuanqing with Lu Gu. It was not the place last time. .

After the two of them picked it up and went ashore, Lu Gu sat on the stone and rubbed the water on his calf with his hands. His legs and feet were a little pale from the cold. Even though the sun was shining, he subconsciously covered it with his palm and rubbed it lightly. , trying to make the calves and feet hot.

Shen Xuanqing, who was sitting next to him and basking his legs and feet, saw that, hesitantly, he stretched his arms and moved his legs over.

Lu Guren was still covered, and his feet landed on Shen Xuanqing's thighs.

Shen Xuanqing's hands are bigger than his, and there are rough calluses on his palms. He rubbed his legs and feet with both hands. He didn't know if it was because of the heat or embarrassment, but it soon became less cold.

Lu Gu didn't dare to refuse or speak, the young man who was helping him rubbed his head and said nothing.

Rubbing and rubbing, Shen Xuanqing's Adam's apple rolled, the drooping star eyes gradually darkened, Lu Gusheng's white, compared to the tough legs of a man, his legs and feet were completely soft and smooth, even the toes were round and lovely.

So the hands gradually slowed down, and the rubbing movement became lighter, with a certain meaning that was difficult to decipher.

Even Lu Gu, who didn't understand any love and music, noticed the charming, but he didn't dare to let out the air, his heart trembled slightly, he raised his eyes in confusion and looked carefully at Shen Xuanqing's face.

The gradually lost Shen Xuanqing caressed the fair skin, and the warm and rough palms slid blasphemously until he inadvertently raised his eyes, and the dark color in his eyes directly frightened Lu Gu.

After seeing Lu Gu's terrified expression, Shen Xuanqing woke up with a start. He froze, and it took a long time for him to regain his senses. Reluctantly, he pretended to put down Lu Gu's legs naturally, and said, "It's getting late, let's go back."

Lu Gu hurriedly put on his shoes and socks, the trousers tightly covered his legs, the touch of the fabric made him feel at ease before, he didn't quite understand what was going on, but he also knew that he was embarrassed and didn't dare to look at Shen Xuanqing again. .

It just so happened that there were a lot of cress here, so Lu Gu squatted by the stream and picked half a basket of tender ones.

After he finished his work, Shen Xuanqing came out today carrying his big bamboo basket as usual, which contained half a basket of green snails. It could be seen how many he touched today, and it was definitely enough to eat for a while. He tied the sack for the crabs, To save myself from climbing out, I put it in the bamboo basket and carried it on my back.

Lu Gu walked back with him carrying a smaller bamboo basket, two small dogs following him unhurriedly.

Compared to the way they had traveled, they were both silent and uncomfortable. On weekdays, even after having the same room, Shen Xuanqing would not feel anything, this is his own husband, and having **** is a matter of course, but now he can't figure it out, and he doesn't understand why he would That way.

Even if a countryman has studied, he usually worries about earning money and rations. How can he think about other things, only knowing how to have **** is very good, and he is naturally not familiar with Qingle.

As he was walking, Lu Gu stopped to pick wild camellia, and he saw it when he came. He also told Shen Xuanqing to pick some when he came back. The wild camellia he picked last time had been dried for half a basket. I drink it often, but I can take it down the mountain to Wei Lanxiang and the others. Sometimes if I want to exchange things with the villagers, I can take these camellias.

Shen Xuanqing regained his senses and picked tea leaves with him. Now he was not as embarrassed as before, and said while picking: "I saw a lot on the other side before, and I picked them another day, and I will see them later. Bring him some when the master is, and he likes to eat wild tea in the mountains."

"Yeah." Lu Gu nodded and agreed in a low voice. After the bamboo basket on his back was full, the two set foot on the circuit again.

—

In the yard, three bamboo plaques are placed on the horizontal wooden frame to dry the wolfberry, and two large bamboo plaques are placed on the firewood pile to dry the wild camellia. Chestnuts and hazelnuts are air-dried under the cool and ventilated main room, otherwise the sun will dry and deflate the meat inside, and it will not taste sweet.

There is also a lot of slender grass in the front yard. After drying, it can be used to burn a fire and can also be used to make a nest for chickens and ducks. In the late autumn, the grass in the nest can often be changed. There is straw at home at the foot of the mountain, but not many brought up. The mountain road is far, and it takes effort to carry everything, so it is better to live on hay.

The mushrooms I picked up were also sliced ​​and shredded and dried. I took a clean cloth bag and put it in a small half pocket. It rained yesterday. If I go out in the next two days, there must be a lot in the forest. Fungus is on sale.

Autumn is getting thicker and the sky is getting colder than before. In previous years, he was very worried at this time. Once winter entered, and he couldn't find anything to eat outside, he would be cold and hungry. This year is different. I was afraid, so I wanted to save all the winter rations I could save. I even dried some dried wild vegetables, packed them in sacks and put them in a cool and dry low house, and put two baskets of dried wolfberry in it.

Lu Gu moved the wolfberry on the bamboo plaque with his hand, and turned it evenly for better drying. He was still thinking that when he went out, he saw a lot of purslane on the road, and they were edible. The tender ones could be fried or steamed. , After drying, it can be eaten in buns in winter.

As long as there is enough water, the purslane will grow very vigorously. There are few other wild vegetables, but it should be possible to add this one to dry in a sack. There are also ground vegetables. When I came back with Shen Xuanqing, I went up the hill and saw that there was ground on the ground. Vegetables, not far away, pick them up after dinner, and they can also be dried and saved for winter when they come back.

Compared with mushrooms, wild vegetables are worthless, so Lu Gu always packed them in sacks. He also prepared a sack for dried fungus.

After two days, the sweet nest root can be dug, and it is also a wild vegetable, but it is eaten by root pieces. The big one can be bigger than his fist. It can be dug back and piled in the corner of the wall, covered with soil, and can be eaten until the next spring.

There is still a lot of work to do, Lu Gu hurried into the kitchen to cook while thinking.
