The Pastoral Life of a Reborn Farmer

Shen Ling wanted to help Han Shi finish the rest of the housework. They had just moved here not long ago. Except for the bedroom and the main room, the rest of the house had not had time to clean up. The kitchen was full of cobwebs, only the stove was visible. It looked a little cleaner. As for the courtyard, they didn't even have a courtyard wall. Where the courtyard wall used to be, it was already a pile of soil covered with lush weeds.

Of course, they don't have many rooms to clean, except for the bedroom and the kitchen, there is only one room to the west of the main room that needs to be cleaned.

As soon as Shen Ling picked up the broom, she felt dizzy for a while, and almost sat on the ground. Han Shi walked over quickly and helped him up, "You should rest first! You still need a good rest due to your illness."

Han Shi was not surprised by Shen Ling's sudden dizziness, or if Shen Ling could suddenly run, jump, and work, he might be surprised instead!Now it seems that Shen Er's body is recovering, but it's not healed yet, and he still needs a good rest.

Shen Ling rubbed between his eyebrows in confusion. He felt that there was nothing wrong with him, but his body was too weak. Although he ate a half-full meal, he was a patient who had been lying in bed for a year. He had never exercised much. It's not good, maybe he's still preoccupied all the time, it's no wonder his body isn't weak.

Lingquan can indeed cure diseases, but it can't restore strength to atrophied muscles all at once, let alone restore health to a weakened body all at once. It's normal to feel dizzy after a sudden movement.

"I'm fine, just let me take it easy." Shen Ling squatted down.

"Go back and lie down! I can do this." Han Shi's eyes were still bright, and he looked very happy, but the happiness was very reserved.

Shen Ling felt that his weak appearance caused by brain ischemia and dizziness when he moved like this was really not suitable for making trouble here, so he had to go back and sit down first, but turned around and said to Han Shi: "Little Shitou, don't be in such a hurry to finish the work, put the kitchen Just tidy it up, and then rest! There is no need for the West Room, just do it first! No need to tidy up, the yard is ready for me, and I will build the courtyard wall again."

Han Shi nodded obediently, and walked quickly into the kitchen.

Shen Ling could only stay in the room, stand up and walk around from time to time, rest for a while, and drank some spirit spring again, confirming that the spirit spring is really not of much use to this kind of physical weakness, so he focused on exercising his body .

As the sky gradually darkened, Shen Ling sat on the edge of the bed panting, panting with his elbows on his thighs, and there was a gurgling sound in his stomach, probably because he had done a lot of exercise today, Shen Ling found himself Hungry again.

After resting for a while, Shen Ling stood up and was about to go to the kitchen to have a look. She didn't know what Han Shi was doing all afternoon, but there was no one there.

Shen Ling walked out of the main room and found that the west room that hadn't been installed hadn't been tidied up. She nodded in satisfaction. Little Shitou is still very obedient!Walking out the door, the yard was still overgrown with weeds, and Shen Ling walked towards the kitchen.

The kitchen has taken on a completely new look. The kitchen, which was only visible from the stove, can’t find a trace of spider webs now. The small bags of cornmeal mixed noodles and various dried vegetables and wild vegetables are neatly arranged. The jar was originally covered by dust, and Shen Ling didn't notice it when he entered the kitchen for the first time. It was also wiped clean at this moment, revealing its original appearance, which was full of clean water.

Shen Ling frowned, where did the water come from?I don't know if the nearest well to draw water here is close.

Han Shi walked in carrying a pole, and the buckets at both ends of the pole were still full, "Are you out? Are you hungry? I'll cook right away."

Han Shi hastily put down the bucket, lifted the bucket and placed it beside the water tank. He erected the pole casually and put it behind the door. Then he turned around and went to get the thick porcelain basin for cooking. He took out a small handful of cornmeal and put it in the porcelain basin smoothly. inside.

Shen Ling looked at it for a while, then said, "I'm going to light the fire."

When Shen Ling walked to the stove, he realized that there seemed to be a lot more firewood in the stove. A lot of dry branches and leaves that had dried and turned yellow were piled up in the pile of firewood.

Shen Ling paused, took a handful of leaves, stuffed them into the stove, and suddenly thought, this is because there are no lighters in the world... Shen Ling was a little deceived.

Han Shi had already cooked the noodles, made them into noodle cakes and pasted them in the pot. Water and cornmeal had already been poured into the bottom of the pot, and he quickly sprinkled salt on it, and put the lid on the pot without giving Shen Ling any time to react. The same pot of rice as at noon has been prepared, and it is ready to be cooked.

Shen Ling: ...

Han Shi looked at Shen Ling and said for a moment, "Why don't I light the fire! You go back and lie down and rest, you'll be better off if you rest more."

All right!Shen Ling stood up silently, and gave the seat to Han Shi. Han Shi took two stones and smashed them. The sparks splashed on the leaves, and a small cluster of fire ignited. Han Shi quickly turned the leaves over, letting the flames It was bigger and stuffed into the stove.

Shen Ling: ...

Shen Ling suddenly worried about whether Han Shi would starve to death if Han Shi wanted to leave him.

Shen Ling looked at it for a while, and was urged by Han Shi to go back to rest, okay!Shen Ling turned and left, went to the yard to check around, no matter what, he would definitely clean up the yard himself, and Han Shi couldn't do it all.

The two had dinner, and after Han Shi washed the dishes, he automatically took out another quilt and a broken straw mat from the bottom of the bed, spread the straw mat on the ground, spread the quilt, and lay down on the ground.

Shen Ling sat by the bed, saw that Han Shi was getting ready to sleep with his head buried, and smiled, "Do you want to sleep in bed with me? Aren't we husband and wife?"

Han Shi opened his eyes. It was not dark yet, but farmers were generally reluctant to waste lamp oil, so they basically went to sleep when it was dark.

The weak light shone on Han Shi's face through the window, making his face not look thin and barely fleshy, but rather small and sharp. He looked at Shen Ling blankly and shyly, as if he was a little puzzled.

Shen Ling's heart trembled, and she couldn't help standing up and sitting on Han Shi's quilt, and poked Han Shi's cheek, but there was still no flesh.

Han Shi hid uncomfortably and buried his head in the same old quilt.

"It's so cold, sleep with me!" Shen Ling said softly.

Han Shi remained motionless, pretending to be asleep.

Shen Ling glanced at the papered windows, no one lived there for many years, and the paper had been torn to the point where only a little bit of the window pane was left, revealing big holes that couldn't even block the wind. He didn't know where this side belonged. Where is the land, but looking at the withered grass outside, you can know that it is either autumn or early winter. Although there is no snow, it is already so cold. The quilts of the two of them are not very warm, and they live in a house with air leakage , Even if you are not a couple, you should squeeze a little bit.

Besides, the child seems to be very afraid of him!This problem has to be overcome.

Thinking of this, Shen Ling became more determined, "It's cold on the ground, you can sleep with me! It's warmer if you cover it with two layers of quilts."

Han Shi moved a little, but he just shrunk further into the quilt, shrank his head down, and still didn't say a word.

Does the child not want to be a husband and wife with him at all?Shen Ling raised her eyebrows. Although she didn't care about the child for the time being, she just wanted to take good care of him, but the child didn't want to be with him. Shen Ling felt very upset, so she simply lifted Han Shi's quilt, and Han Shi struggled. After a while, I couldn't catch it, or I didn't dare to use my strength, for fear of tearing my only quilt.

Shen Ling stretched out his hand to hold Han Shi's shoulder that wanted to take back the quilt, and said solemnly: "Do you not want to live with me? Even if I recover from illness?"

Han Shi's originally flushed face instantly turned red, as if it was about to emit heat. Shen Ling stretched out his hand to touch it, and it was really warm. He couldn't help but smile, and moved closer. But such a big person can't shrink smaller, he can only watch Shen Ling approaching, just a stone's throw away from him.

"Do you want to live with me?" Shen Ling said, his eyes full of seriousness. "If you don't want to, I will give you a sum of money and treat you as a younger brother. You are Shuang'er, right! I don't know why Shuang'er can marry, but if you want to marry, I will prepare a dowry for you. If you want to marry a daughter-in-law, I will also prepare a dowry gift for you, and I will never break my promise. If you want to live with me, then let's live a good life. Do you want to live with me?"

Han Shi opened his mouth to say something, but he was so nervous that he couldn't say a word, his eyes were almost red, and his breathing became more and more rapid. Shen Ling pressed an arm on Han Shi's chest, and he could clearly feel the pressure on Han Shi's chest. The heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and suddenly I was a little worried that the child was malnourished all the year round, what to do if he was so nervous and the heartbeat was so fast that he passed out, thinking about it, he stood up quickly to give Han Shi a little room to breathe.

Han Shi wanted to pull the quilt again, but Shen Ling stopped him and held the quilt in his arms, "I won't let you sleep unless you tell me." Shen Ling sat up straight, about half a meter away from Han Shi.

Han Shi's lips moved, almost crying.

"Is it hard to say? Still haven't thought it through?" Shen Ling let go of the quilt distressedly, and covered his lap, "If you don't think it through, you can answer me in a few days."

"I...I...I am your husband." Han Shi finally held back a word.

"I know, I'm asking if you want to live with me? It doesn't matter if we get married or not."

"I... have come to worship, you... you can't do without me... I am the first wife, and if you marry... you will also be the second wife." Han Shi anxiously shed tears, this is the first time he refuted the opinions of others, In the past, no matter whether his elder brother sold him to Shen Er or separated the Shen family, he never dared to say a word, but today he really couldn't help but speak, what did Shen Er mean by saying this?They are obviously married, how can anyone not be a husband and wife?Unless he was divorced, Han Shi fell into a great panic.

He has no home. Even if he goes back to his elder brother's house, he will either be kicked out or sold again. The first time he was sold to a dying patient for a high price. If he goes back again, he will marry Once a person is dead, I am afraid that being sold again will only make it worse. If Shen Er doesn't want him, then he might as well die.Han Shi was so anxious that he cried.
