My husband is a sick cat

Zhou's disapproval was expected by Tang Ying, but unexpected by Lu Jian.

"Why don't you agree? Isn't it good for your son to take the top prize?"

Tang Ying said nothing, but Lu Jian couldn't help but ask.

After getting along with each other for so many days, Ms. Zhou also understood that Lu Jian was simple-minded and was not angry about her problems. This time she was angry at her son.

"Then do you know how difficult it is to take the top prize? How much effort does it take? Even a healthy person may not be able to bear it, let alone Ying'er's body. I'm worried that he hasn't..."

Zhou couldn't say the next words. No matter how angry she was, she still couldn't bear to say a bad word about her son.

Tang Ying lowered his head slightly and tightened his hands on his legs slightly. He understood what his mother meant, but it was precisely because of his understanding that he wanted to fight for the last time.

Lu Jian listened to Zhou's words and after thinking about it, she understood the other party's concerns, but she was still very optimistic and thought it was not a problem.

"Then we'll wait until he's well enough before taking the exam. There shouldn't be a time limit for this scientific test here, right? At worst, we'll have to wait for more than ten years. We can just take the exam after he's completely recovered. , it’s not like we’re going now.”

These words were beyond the expectations of Zhou's mother and son. They never expected that Lu Jian's thoughts would be like this. After thinking about Lu Jian's behavior during this period, they realized that she seemed to have always been optimistic and insisted that Tang Ying's health It will definitely get better.

Even though the mother and son had always known that there was little hope, they were still a little moved when they heard Lu Jian say this. After all, Lu Jian now knew very well how much money and energy it would take to maintain Tang Ying's health.

Apart from anything else, her kindness was enough for their mother and son to treat her well, and Lu Jian was also the only person who wanted to do his best to help Tang Ying after Tang Jing's death.

The topic of the imperial examination was dropped, but Tang Ying still remembered that she wanted to give Lu Jian the title of No. 1 Scholar's Wife.

The next day, the bows, arrows and machetes that Tang Ying asked the craftsmen to make were also delivered. In fact, these things had been made two days earlier, but Tang Ying refused to deliver them and only gave them to Lu Jian. The bed came over and lied to her that it was not ready yet.

Now that it was confirmed that Lu Jian knew how to hunt, these things were naturally ready.

After getting these tools, Lu Jian followed the methods taught by Lu Rover to adjust them. After all, everyone's strength and other things are different, and these things must be adjusted to become the most suitable for them.

This will make it easy to use and avoid unnecessary trouble in times of crisis.

Tang Ying sat on the steps under the eaves, holding a book in his hand. He occasionally looked at Lu Jian who was debugging and trying out the bow, arrow and machete. Seeing the proficiency of the other person, he was finally convinced that Lu Jian could really hunt.

But even if he believed it, when Lu Jian was about to go hunting in the mountains, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. It was still dark early in the morning, and he didn't care whether it was cold outside or not, so he came out wearing a coat.

Lu Jian was squatting at the door of the kitchen, waiting for Mrs. Zhou to pack the pancakes made for her and prepare a water bag for her.

This time, Zhou didn't need Lu Jian to ask. When making pancakes for Lu Jian, she cut a lot of meat and added them to make the pancakes fragrant and crispy, making people's appetite whet their appetites as soon as they smelled them.

As for the water bladders, they were also newly bought. These things were naturally spent on Lu Jian’s dowry money. However, Zhou did not think about saving money this time and prepared two of the best water bladders for Lu Jian, one big and one small. Just in case she wasn't enough.

After getting everything ready, and just about to ask Lu Jian to come in and get it before setting off, she saw Tang Ying walking over. Before she could speak, Lu Jian, who was squatting at the door, felt eyes on her. , turned around and saw Tang Ying.

"Why did you come out? Go back quickly. It's cold this morning. The doctor said before that you can't catch a cold."

Lu Jian hurriedly walked over to pick up Tang Ying, and immediately carried him back to the house in a princess hug. Witnessing this scene, Ms. Zhou's mouth twitched slightly, and she suddenly remembered that Lu Jian also sent her son off in the same way on the night of his wedding. Go back to your room by yourself.

Although Lu Jian did it very easily, the person being hugged was very embarrassed.

Tang Ying never thought that she would be carried back by Lu Jian like this. You must know that Lu Jian's height at this time was less than 33 meters. (In ancient times, it should be said that it was less than five feet, and one foot was about centimeters. In order to make it easier for everyone to intuitively see the height, let’s use modern units. Anyway, it is overhead.)

Although Tang Ying was thin, she was actually 1.8 meters tall, more than a head taller than Lu Jian, but she was picked up so easily.

Although it had long been known that Lu Jian was powerful, it was now the most intuitive feeling. Therefore, after Tang Ying was placed on the bed by Lu Jian, she was still a little unresponsive, but there was a faint blush on her handsome face.

Lu Jian discovered this immediately, so he immediately touched Tang Ying's forehead and even touched his own.

"It's strange. You don't have a fever. Why are you blushing? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Do you want to call the doctor?"

Since their wedding, the Tang family has invited a doctor twice. The doctor lives at the end of the village. The first time it was Zhou who took Lu Jian to ask for it, and the second time it was Lu Jian who went there by herself. At this time, she asked this question , she was ready to call the doctor.

"do not."

Tang Ying immediately grabbed Lu Jian's clothes and stopped her from going to the doctor.

"I'm fine, I don't feel uncomfortable. I'm blushing probably from the cold just now. There's nothing wrong. There's no need to call the doctor."

"So that's it. No wonder the doctor said he shouldn't let you catch a cold. Look at you, your face is red just after you went out. Don't go out in the morning again."

It's no wonder that Lu Jian believed it so easily. After all, this steely straight girl had never seen love, let alone experienced it. Her slender brain would never think in the direction of Tang Ying's shyness.

In addition, because of the doctor's instructions, Tang Ying almost never went out in the morning. He ate breakfast in the house and only went out when the sun was good at noon, but that was just for a walk in the yard.

"Okay, are you ready to go?"

Seeing that Lu Jian believed it, Tang Ying breathed a sigh of relief and immediately changed the topic.

"Yes, this is the right time to start. After the sun comes out in a while, the animals will come out to look for food. It's a good time for hunting."

"Well, you have to pay attention to your safety. You don't have to hunt wild boars, you can also hunt other small animals. You can gather a small number to make a large number. We are not in a hurry at this moment. You must come back safely, even if you don't catch the prey. It’s okay, remember?”

Tang Ying's instructions have been repeated many times since Lu Jian decided to go hunting in the mountains yesterday, asking her to pay attention to her safety. Every time, Lu Jian would listen carefully and answer seriously, because she knew that Tang Ying was just here. Just worried about her.

And she is not ignorant.

"Okay, I'll remember it. Just stay at home and remember to eat well. I'll definitely be back before dark."

After hearing Lu Jian's assurance, Tang Ying let Lu Jian leave. But seeing Lu Jian's back disappear at the door, Tang Ying vaguely felt that he was more worried about Lu Jian than before.

Listening carefully to the whispers of Zhou and Lu Jian in the yard, Tang Ying suddenly heard the sound of the door opening and closing. Tang Ying's heart suddenly became a little nervous. For the first time, he began to pray for blessings from the gods he had not believed in for eight years. Lu Jian is safe.

Mrs. Zhou came in when Tang Ying was praying to the gods. She was still holding a small bowl of vegetable porridge in her hand. She glanced at Tang Ying and said softly: "Get up first, drink some porridge, and then rest for a while. I will always be here." The people watching from the yard will tell you if anything happens."

The Tang family's house, like the Lu family's, is located at the very back of the village, near the back mountain.

In fact, several villages around here basically rely on the same mountain. It can be said that they are various villages built around this mountain.

This mountain is very large and stretches for thousands of miles. It can be said to be one of the most natural barriers in the country. And because this mountain forest occupies a very large and extensive area, there are a lot of animal and plant resources in it.

Not to mention wild boars, there are animals such as tigers and bears, and there are countless venomous snakes. The deeper you go, the more dangerous it becomes. Therefore, even if there are many powerful hunters in the surrounding villages, no one can fully understand this area. It’s a big mountain, let alone crossing it to see what it’s like on the other side.

However, this mountain is not really endless. Going around the foot of the mountain, there is another Luosheng Kingdom that is not much different from the Dasheng Kingdom. Apart from this large mountain, there are still defenders in other places between the two countries. Guarding the border.

Of course, these things were all casually mentioned by Tang Ying when he was teaching Lu Jian how to write. After traveling here for more than a month, Lu Jian finally knew that the country he was in was called Dasheng, and it had a pretty good name.

Moreover, Tang Ying also said that the current emperor is very good. The country is now peaceful and the people are prosperous, so the people's life can be considered good. Although it has not reached the point where no one has starved to death, there have been no major natural or man-made disasters in several years. .

Therefore, Lu Jian also felt that this country was quite good. Although it was not as good as the country described by the woman in his memory, it was already very good compared to the apocalypse.

Going back to Tangjia Village, the terrain of Tangjia Village is the same as that of most villages near this mountain. It is low in front and high in back. The village is located between the mountain in the back and the plain in front.

It is said to be a plain, but it is just a relatively flat piece of land. These lands are the fields that the villagers in the surrounding villages rely on for survival. Although they rely on the mountains to live on, there are hunters in this mountain every year, and most people really don't dare to go in casually.

Therefore, farming is still their main source of income. In order to use more flat land for farming, people live in houses as close to the back mountains as possible.

Although the back mountain is said to be dangerous, it is only after entering ten miles. Within the first ten miles, it is still very safe. Except for the occasional poisonous snakes, there are almost no places to guard against.

This is the experience gained by countless hunters after giving their lives. This ten-mile range is also called the front mountain, and the rest is collectively called the back mountain.

Also because Qianshan is safe, many people who want to build houses after separation but don’t have any spare land can only choose to build their houses in these locations.

The Tang family is like this. The old house of the Tang family is actually in the middle of the village, close to the village chief's house. However, the eldest brother of the Tang family and Tang Ying's father have always been at odds. The old man suppressed the eldest brother when he was still alive, so the whole family is Living together.

As a result, the old man passed away due to a sudden illness and did not have time to distribute the family property. Therefore, after the old man passed away, the family property could only be divided under the witness of the village chief and clan elders.

At that time, Tang Ying was still young and it was time to seek medical advice. Tang Jing took his wife and children to find the old doctor who had become an official, so he did not stay by his side when the old man passed away.

Tang Feng, the eldest brother of the Tang family, used this point to attack Tang Jing, saying that he was unfilial and had even attracted his third brother and younger sister. If a few elders were not fair, it is estimated that none of the family property would have been in Tang Jing's hands.

But even with the intercession of the elders and the final allocation, Tang Jing only got two acres of land and some money, but not at all the family house.

At that time, Tang Jun had just become the village chief, and he didn't have much dignity. Moreover, it was a family matter, so he couldn't interfere too much. He could only find a foundation for Tang Jing in the back mountain after the family was separated.

The Zhou family used the money they received and their dowry to build the house that is now the Tang family's house. Tang Ying's situation at that time was actually not too bad, so when building the house, the couple did not save much, otherwise they would not have built the house. I can't afford such a nice house.

It is precisely because this house is built in the back mountain that not only can you clearly see most of the activities in the village, but also the situation in the back mountain. The road into the back mountain is not far from Tang's house.

Sitting on the steps of the Tang family, you can directly see the people coming out of the back mountain without going out, so that's why Mr. Zhou said this.

After hearing this, Tang Ying just nodded silently and didn't say much. Even if he wanted to watch from the yard, it was impossible for Mr. Zhou to agree. He might as well not speak and just read in the room and wait for Lu Jian to come back. good.

She promised herself that she would come back safely.
