Days of farming with bamboo horses

Chapter 22. Don't Worry

The next morning, Zhou Chengyu woke up, since Xiaoxiong's foot injury was no longer a problem, he should go to the mountain to find some wood and come back to carve, otherwise it would be easy to do it by hand.

Hearing this news, the wood spirit is the happiest. He has been "eating" for a long time, and finally has a new sculpture.

The wood spirit chirped in his ear: "Master, I have sensed that there are a lot of woods with aura in the back mountain. Let's go find some more and carve more."

Zhou Chengyu was sitting on a small bench, holding a wood carving of a lucky boy in his hand, carefully carving it with various tools, ignoring the noise of the wood spirit, but finishing the last bit, blowing the sawdust on it, Immediately, a vivid boy came out.

According to the wood spirit, he can sense the breath of life. If he is carving wood, the aura inside will gradually increase, and he can also absorb it, so the wood spirit will always guard Zhou Chengyu when he is carving.

It has to be said that Zhou Chengyu's craftsmanship has indeed been passed down by his teacher. He is so humble that he seldom carves bad works.Looking at the shelf again, there are twenty or thirty wood carvings neatly arranged, all of which are small gadgets. Because he doesn't know the market here, Zhou Chengyu still starts with small ornaments. It is best to order large wood carvings, otherwise it will be a bit of a loss.

Zhou Chengyu put the Lucky Boy on the shelf and looked at the empty space there. He asked Zhou Chengxuan to help take a few samples to other towns. If anyone wanted to buy them, he would consider making more.

"Don't worry, wait until Zipei wakes up, take him with you, I don't worry about him being alone at home." Zhou Chengyu said.

Mu Ling silently shut up, come on, now we have to wait until the little ancestor gets up.

In fact, Su Zipei didn't have the habit of sleeping late, and woke up fairly early, but because of the long fight last night, he was physically and mentally exhausted (?), so he relaxed and slept until he woke up naturally.When he woke up, Zhou Chengyu was ready to make lunch.

Because he was worried about catching a cold, when Zhou Chengyu got up, he put him in the bed and wrapped him tightly, and naturally put on his clothes, but those marks were not so easy to remove.When Su Zipei picked up the clothes on the bedside, he accidentally saw marks on his body. His face was slightly hot, and his legs were still a little soft. Although he blushed a little, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

When Zhou Chengyu came in, he saw the little boy smiling awkwardly while putting on his clothes, his coat was crooked.Feeling helpless, let's say it's stupid, it seems that there is no such thing, at least people still know how to ask for a kiss and a hug.But he is not stupid, Zhou Chengyu thinks, a person who has not been able to wear the clothes here for more than a month is stupid all day long, how is he not stupid?

"Can't wear it?" Zhou Chengyu took the clothes in his hands, and turned the interrogative sentences into declarative sentences, but helped him put on and tidy up the clothes very familiarly.

Su Zipei shook his head embarrassingly, put on his clothes in accordance with his movements, and raised his head slightly: "Chengyu, I'm a little hungry—"

Zhou Chengyu pinched his ears, feeling the softness of his hands, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's rare that my family is hungry, so go eat, you go wash up first, and I'll serve the dishes in the kitchen."

"Yeah." Su Zipei reached out and pinched the ear that Cheng Yu pinched just now, feeling satisfied, who said Cheng Yu has a bad temper, he is obviously very gentle and gentle.

Zhou Chengyu was cooking in the kitchen. Regarding this skill, he complained about the wood spirit n times, threatening that the first thing the wood spirit had absorbed was to learn how to cook.

However, what should be done is still to be done, otherwise he will drink the northwest wind with the little thing?He never expected Zipei to learn, he would be thankful if he could eat more small things, and as for cooking, if he hurts someone, wouldn't he be the one who feels distressed?

Moreover, in order to nourish Su Zipei's body, Zhou Chengyu deliberately killed chickens and stewed old chicken soup today. Although there are not so many medicinal materials here, the chickens here are domestically raised, which are much more delicious and nutritious than the modern feed. .

The two really couldn't eat that much, Zhou Chengyu only cooked half of it, and the rest was marinated with salt according to Mu Ling's suggestion, and put in a cool place. It is said that it will become salt-baked chicken?Zhou Chengyu expressed doubts, and Mu Ling is also unreliable.

"Chengyu, I've finished washing." Su Zipei walked in from the outside and looked at the kitchen curiously. When he was injured, Chengyu never let him in, so this was the first time he entered the kitchen, but he didn't recognize it so much. What is a multi-bottle bottle, the one is a bit like a spatula.

"There's a small bench over there, just sit there, and I'll just cook some vegetables." Zhou Chengyu ordered without raising his head, washing the freshly picked vegetables with his hands, and the sound of sizzling was already coming from the pot.

All the vegetables in the vegetable field at home have sprouted, and the cabbage is growing very well. This is the first time Zhou Chengyu has picked and eaten it. After a while, there will be melons, and it feels not bad.

"Oh." Su Zipei sat down on the small bench obediently, his black eyes rolled cunningly, just opposite to the stove, he saw that the firewood was about to fall out, he wanted to reach out to stuff it in, but was suddenly slapped away hand, he looked at the person with some apprehension, "Chengyu, it, it fell out——"

"If it falls out, it will fall out. Can you use your hands?" Zhou Chengyu didn't expect that this little thing would dare to poke firewood with his hands even if he didn't look at anyone for a second. It is possible to have long bubbles immediately.

Su Zipei looked at people uneasily, drooping his head, like a trained puppy.

Zhou Chengyu put down the dishes, squatted beside him, held his hand, picked up the tongs beside him, and taught him: "Whenever you want to get firewood, you must use tongs, otherwise what should you do if you burn your hands? You see , Just put the firewood in like this, don’t use your hands.”

Su Zipei practiced it carefully, and turned her head to look at the person, with anticipation in her almond eyes.

Zhou Chengyu frowned: "It's barely a pass. If I find out that you forgot again and use your hands directly, I won't let you enter the kitchen."

"I remember, Chengyu is not angry." Su Zipei nodded hastily, he wanted to stay with Chengyu and help, he could learn a lot, many things.

"Okay, don't put too much in at once, I'm cooking, you just sit here, if the fire gets low, put a little more." Zhou Chengyu ordered, after thinking about it, he added, "I'm just worried, Don’t be mad at you, don’t think about it.”

After getting along for so long, Zhou Chengyu also knows that the little things are mainly coaxed, and they are very obedient after being coaxed.Sure enough, Su Zipei nodded happily when he heard this, and the annoyance just now was swept away, and he sat there to add firewood in an orderly manner.

……

"Eat all of these, or I won't take you up the mountain." Zhou Chengyu sat beside him, serving him some food, and threatened unceremoniously.

There was a small pile of meat and vegetables in Su Zipei's bowl, but there wasn't much food. With a small face on his face, he ate slowly, but he didn't dare to say no, he didn't want to stay at home alone.

In fact, it's quite worry-free, Zhou Chengyu thought so, stretched out his hand and pinched the back of his fair neck, and was satisfied to see the man shrink back, with a chicken wing in his mouth, looking at him innocently with almond eyes.

"Like to eat chicken wings?" Zhou Chengyu saw that he was biting the chicken wings with relish, it didn't look like he was reluctant to eat them.

Su Zipei nodded, still biting a piece of meat in his mouth, said vaguely: "It's delicious."

Zhou Chengyu chuckled, it was rare for him to hear something delicious from his mouth, and he planned to buy a few more chickens to keep at home in the future, killing him and making soup for him when he had time.

In the end, Su Zipei was forced to finish the food in the bowl, and drank another bowl of soup. His belly was swollen again. He touched it sadly. He ate so much every day, what if he got fat in the future?so ugly?

If Zhou Chengyu knew that his family didn't eat so many small things and was a picky eater just to keep fit, he would definitely beat him up and watch him eat more by the way.

Zhou Chengyu took a sickle and a hatchet, thought for a while, then turned back and carried a basket on his back, and then walked leisurely up the mountain with the little thing.

Su Zipei has always lived in the city, unlike Zhou Chengyu who stayed at his grandmother's house in the countryside when he was a child, so he is particularly curious about going to the mountains.Zhou Chengyu was afraid that he would fall if he was not used to walking on mountain roads, and he was afraid that he would get lost, so he held him tightly with one hand.

"Chengyu, what's that?" Su Zipei pointed to a glowing red fruit tree, his expression ready to move, because when he came, Chengyu said that he was not allowed to pick things indiscriminately, and some things on the mountain are poisonous. No hands.

Zhou Chengyu cut down some weeds on the side of the road. Hearing this, he looked up and saw that plant with slender leaves and plump red fruit. Why does it look so familiar?After a little thought: "This is a bit like undried goji berry? Wood spirit, isn't it?"

"Yeah! It's wolfberry, can the master take it home and plant it? It's full of aura!" Mu Ling said excitedly.

After Su Zipei knew the existence of the wood spirit, he didn't make any fuss about the sudden voice. Instead, he looked at the person happily: "Chengyu, do you want to take it back? The fruit is very beautiful."

"It's okay, there is still room in the yard." Zhou Chengyu walked over, and just about to dig it out, he remembered that there was a pet beside him, and it was useless. Is it difficult?"

"... But, but my spiritual energy is not enough." Mu Ling said aggrievedly, he had managed to accumulate a lot of spiritual energy, and he had to do so much work.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up, won't you be able to collect spiritual energy every day if you bring it home?" Zhou Chengyu said in a bad mood.

"Oh." The wood spirit responded, twisting his body, of course he thought it was.The light green light was fleeting, and the wolfberry tree lay on the ground intact, without hurting any roots.

"It seems that raising you is not useless at all." Zhou Chengyu smiled, wrapped the root with mud, and stuffed it into the basket behind his back, barely able to stuff it, it seems that this should be a young seedling , I don’t know how big the wolfberry tree is.
