Gu Rin's farming life

Until returning to the carriage, Gu Xian was still excited.

He is a very calm person, and he is rarely so excited. Gu Lin felt sore when he saw it, and thought to himself, the elder brother really fell, look, riding a horse together makes him so excited.

Gu Lin sighed, brother can't help but brother.

Hearing his sigh, and looking at Gu Xian's expression, Wen Yan immediately knew what Gu Lin was talking about, and said to himself, Gu Lin, you really think too much.

Gu Lin sat on the sidelines and thought wildly, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Ah Ce did it on purpose, using the matter of riding a horse to seduce Gu Xian, on the surface he was playing with Gu Xian, but in fact he was showing off and showing off his affection.

Gu Lin, who was shown her face, became more and more unhappy as she thought about it, and pulled Wen Yan, "You and I will go down for a walk."

Hmph, are you the only one who can show off?I can too!

Wen Yan had no intention of taking a walk at all, so he decisively rejected Gu Lin, "I don't want to take a walk."

"Let's go together, just stay with me~" Gu Lin who was rejected was not at all discouraged, and shook Wen Yan's sleeve, "Come on~"

Wen Yan was still cold, "I refuse."

Sitting well in the carriage, he really had no intention of taking a walk.

Gu Lin was wronged now, turned around and nested in the corner to draw circles, "You don't love me anymore."

He said and sang, "He doesn't love me~"

Wen Yan rolled his eyes and felt that Gu Lin was getting more childish, so he reached out and patted Gu Lin's head perfunctorily, "Okay, when I'm resting, I'll take you up the mountain to hug grass and hunt rabbits."

"Really?" Gu Lin immediately turned her head, staring at Wen Yan with sparkling eyes.

"Really." Wen Yan held his forehead helplessly, feeling as if he had raised an extra son.

Satisfied with this, Gu Lin gave him a hard kiss on the face, and then he was so proud that Ah Ce, who had been riding a horse and following the carriage at some point, bared his teeth, showing off his words.

Mad is retarded.

Ah Ce cursed silently in his heart, and said in his heart, what are you showing off to me, I don't like your gentle words, so don't rush to show off in front of me.Deciding to ignore the bastard Gu Lin, he shook the rein in his hand, and the horse paced forward slowly, overtaking the cart.

Gu Lin looked up and could only see Ah Ce's back, feeling that he had succeeded in showing off, Gu Lin was still very proud, lay down halfway, and read leisurely with a book of stories.

Gu Xian, who watched the whole process, couldn't help but look at each other warmly, a trace of helplessness flashed in the eyes of both of them.

After walking like this for half a day, when it was time to rest, the coachman and the entourage brought by Ah Ce were all cooking, and Wen Yan took Gu Lin and His Majesty Mao to the mountain to hunt rabbits.

The mountains and forests in April are full of vitality. Although there are no flowers, a large area of ​​green still makes people feel refreshed.

His majesty the cat obviously liked this kind of mountain forest very much, as soon as he reached the mountain, he ran away without a trace.

Gu Lin and Wen Yan said they came to shoot rabbits, but in fact rabbits are not so easy to shoot, at least they watched for a long time and didn't even see a rabbit hair.

In fact, Gu Lin didn't really want to hit the rabbit, he just acted like a baby with Wen Yan, so he wasn't very disappointed, so he followed Wen Yan around in the woods.

Wen Yan really wanted to hit the rabbit.

He used to live a miserable life, thinking about his own food and clothing every day, firewood, mountain mushrooms, game, as long as he could sell money, he would look for it and pick it up.

As for hunting, he didn't know anything at the beginning, so the money he earned at the beginning was not enough to eat. Later, he often secretly followed the hunters in the village to observe how they made traps to hunt prey.

Later on, he also managed small animals such as pheasants and rabbits, and his income gradually increased. Unfortunately, this did not improve his situation. Anyway, as long as he has some money, Wen Yougen will not let it go. Pass.

The old days are gone.

Later, the days got better and better, and Wen Yan seldom thought of the old days, but today he saw the forest outside the car, and suddenly wanted to hunt, and it happened that Gu Lin was acting like a baby over there, so he went along with the flow and proposed to hug the grass Hit the rabbit.

It's a pity that he wandered around for a long time. Whether it was a rabbit or a pheasant, he didn't even see a hair. He was actually very disappointed. He glanced at Gu Lin and found that he was still in high spirits. Dispersed a little.

Gu Lin didn't notice Wen Yan's expression, took Wen Yan's hand, and led them for a walk slowly in the forest.

As he walked, Wen Yan's expression softened, and he let Gu Lin walk aimlessly.

Maybe it's because the wind is too comfortable today, or the sun is too good, Gu Lin only feels soft in his heart, and the words in his heart come out naturally, "Xiaoyan, let's get married when we go back."

"Ah?" Hearing Gu Lin's words, Wen Yan was stunned, staggered, and almost fell off the hill.

Gu Lin was almost thrown by Wen Yan, and grabbed the tree trunk next to him to stabilize his body, and he also hugged Wen Yan into his arms by the way.

Wen Yan rubbed against Gu Lin's arms, and after a while he said sullenly, "You haven't passed my test yet."

His first reaction when he heard Gu Lin's marriage proposal was ecstasy. Gu Lin was going to settle down with him, and Gu Lin would be his from now on. It was justified, and there was a marriage certificate to prove it!

But he was a little worried. This feeling was probably like a premarital phobia. The uncertainty of the future made him unable to agree immediately, and let him immediately accept that he would live completely with another person in the future.

Although he can be regarded as living with Gu Lin now, it is different from getting married. Getting married means that two people truly become a family and take care of everything in the family together.

From now on, the two are inseparable.

This feeling is strange and unknown.Uncertainty about the future made him a little apprehensive, so he instinctively chose to procrastinate.

Gu Lin was very happy when his sweetheart threw himself into his arms, but when he heard his polite refusal, Gu Lin felt heartbroken, and his voice was muffled, "I thought I had already passed the test. No ah?"

He was aggrieved, "I think I'm pretty good, why didn't I pass? I don't accept it."

Wen Yan gently broke free from his embrace, reached out and patted his face, "Obviously, your awareness is not enough."

When patting Gu Lin's face, Wen Yan had already made up his mind in his heart, thinking about it for a while, during which time he and Gu Lin had a good run-in, if he can get used to living with Gu Lin intimately, then when he is full When she was eighteen, she married Gu Lin.

Hearing what he said, Gu Lin was still very dissatisfied. What do you mean by this? What does it mean that you are not enlightened enough? If you are so high-spirited and honest, who can be more enlightened than yourself? Why is Wen Yan not enlightened enough?

Wen Yan chuckled, noncommittal.

Seeing his expression, Gu Lin was obviously even more dissatisfied, and stretched out his hand to pinch Wen Yan's face, "Please explain to me clearly."

Wen Yan still had a smile on his face, "I'm the one who is testing you, whether you are good or not, of course I have the final say, how can you just feel good about yourself? Then how can you show my importance?"

Gu Lin was stunned for a long time, and then she understood what Wen Yan meant, and immediately rolled her eyes, "This can't be regarded as my low consciousness."

Wen Yan didn't argue with him, but just said, "Of course, you can think so, but it's not certain whether you will pass the test in the future."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Lin was able to pinch Gu Lin, his wife and the invisible and intangible consciousness, Gu Lin chose his wife immediately, and said to Wen Yan with a flattering face, "You are right, you You are right, my awareness is too low, and I will review it with you."

Seeing that he compromised so quickly, Wen Yan snorted softly, walked to the front, and said a little arrogantly, "Follow."

"Hey." Gu Lin still had a flattering face, pretending to be a little eunuch, and saluted.

"Okay, stop making trouble." Wen Yan was amused by his appearance, and laughed again, and then took the initiative to take Gu Lin's hand and continue walking forward.

Maybe this place has been raining recently or something. They found a clump of fungus on a tree, which looked very fresh. Although fresh fungus cannot be cooked and eaten directly, the two of them still picked the clump of fungus. clean and dry.

After collecting the fungus, the two continued to wander in the woods, and found a pile of shiitake mushrooms. The two of them still did not let them go, and picked up all the shiitake mushrooms.

In fact, there are still a lot of good things in the woods. When they go back to the meeting, they not only have fungus and shiitake mushrooms, but also eggs and wild vegetables.

Back at the resting place, the coachman and Ah Ce's guys gathered together to cook, while Gu Xian and Ah Ce were occupying a simple stove made of stones and clods and didn't know what they were doing.

Gu Lin leaned over and found that they were baking a mud ball.

"What is this?" Gu Lin guessed that it might be something like a beggar's chicken, but he couldn't be sure, so Gu Lin still asked.

"A Ce is making a beggar's chicken." Gu Xian raised his head and replied with a triumphant look, "I caught the pheasant together with Ah Ce."

Seeing Gu Xian's face, Gu Lin couldn't help but burst out laughing. It may be because of catching chickens in the mountains. Gu Xian's hair was a little messy, his clothes were stained with dirt, and there was a black spot on his nose. The ashes from the fire may have been stained by the fire. It is really funny to look at, just like a little beggar.

"What are you laughing at?" Seeing that Gu Lin didn't praise him, he even started to laugh, Gu Xian couldn't help but stretched out his sleeve and wiped his nose, and then asked.

Instead of wiping the ashes off his nose, he wiped it even more, and the whole nose was black, so Gu Lin laughed even harder.

Ah Ce at the side couldn't stand it anymore, put down the things in his hands, clapped his hands again, and patted off the ashes in his hands, then took out a handkerchief from his arms, and poured some water from the earthen pot beside him After the veil was wet, he broke off Gu Xian's head, yelled to stay still, and then carefully wiped Gu Xian's face.

Although Ah Ce was too close, and his breath sprayed on his face, which made him feel a little embarrassed, but since Ah Ce was kind enough to help him wipe his face, Gu Xian still obediently stayed still and asked Ah Ce to wipe himself well. face.

Ah Ce is very careful, and his movements are very gentle, as if what he is wiping is not Gu Xian's face, but a priceless treasure, Gu Lin can actually see some tenderness from his cautious appearance .

Gu Lin, who was suddenly shown his face, couldn't help but turned his head and glanced at Wen Yan, thinking that he would also show off to Wen Yan, who knew that Wen Yan was really dealing with those mushrooms and fungus, Gu Lin thought in his heart Suddenly a little frustrated, Wen Yan doesn't show affection to him, it's really lonely.

Looking back, seeing that Gu Xian and A Ce still looked tender and affectionate, Gu Lin sighed in his heart, what a couple!

Even though he secretly called Gu Xian and the others to be dogs, but it didn't affect Gu Xian and the others, Gu Lin couldn't help but let out another long sigh, took the pot aside to fill it with clean water, and prepared to boil it later. Soup to drink.

Since Wen Yan doesn't show affection to him, he can only turn his grief and anger into appetite, cook a good meal, and eat seriously later, so as not to be blinded again.

It's not that Wen Yan doesn't know about Gu Lin's affairs, but he thinks that Gu Lin is becoming more and more naive, so he doesn't intend to get involved in this matter. Anyway, Gu Lin is just talking about it. If he really hates it Ah Ce's words would have already caused him to stumble.

Since he didn't make trouble, it proved that he didn't really want to destroy it, so there was no need to take care of it.Anyway, Gu Lin will come to look for him to act like a baby later, and he actually likes Gu Lin's acting like a baby.

After Gu Lin filled the clean water, he came back and put the pot on the stove to burn, since there are quite a lot of stoves anyway.

After putting the pot away, he walked over to Wen Yan, "Xiaoyan, shall we make mushroom and egg soup?"

"Okay." Wen Yan didn't refuse, handed the packed mushrooms to Gu Lin, then turned around and started to deal with the fungus again.

Fresh fungus cannot be eaten directly, it needs to be dried before eating, so Wen Yan pinched off the root of the fungus, then stuffed it into a gauze bag, and hung it on the carriage to dry when he was going to leave.

"Xiaoyan, don't you want to eat fungus today?" As for fungus, Gu Xian likes to eat it, but he has never understood it. He has no idea that fresh fungus cannot be eaten directly. Seeing Wen Yan put it away, he still has a little regret.

"Fresh fungus can't be eaten directly." Wen Yan raised his head and said to Gu Xian. Gu Xian's face has been wiped clean, and his fair face still looks very beautiful. After adjusting his body, he began to grow flesh, and his face became more and more beautiful. Although he often looked at it, Wen Yan still dazzled when he saw it.

Gu Xian has always been unaware of his own beauty, so he didn't know that his beauty shocked Wen Yan again, but he just looked regretful, "I thought I could eat it today."

"You can eat it when it's dried." The beautiful woman's slightly frowning look is the most beautiful, Wen Yan only feels that looking at Gu Xian's face, there is always a look that is willing to do anything for him, of course This feeling has nothing to do with love, but a kind of tolerance and accommodation for beautiful things.

Gu Xian still had a look of regret. Fungus is common and common. In the forest after the rain, you can often see rotten wood covered with fungus. It is rare to say that the fungus on the mountain is not grown in batches. It's just a small handful when it comes down, and it's gone in one meal.

The Gu family used to be relatively poor, and the fungus, which was encountered on the mountain, was picked and sold for money, so Gu Xian could eat it less often. As for the money later, why did Gu Xian still eat less? Because Gu Xian is more casual in eating, he eats whatever he gives, and he doesn't specifically ask for the things he likes to eat. As time goes by, others think that he eats everything.

If he hadn't seen better today, he wouldn't have opened his mouth.

Wen Yan only found out today that Gu Xian still has a preference for certain foods, so he tried to explain as much as possible, and had another thing in mind.

When Gu Lin chatted with him before, he once talked about the planting method of fungus, but he didn’t care about it at that time. After all, his perception of fungus was just average. He couldn’t say he liked it or didn’t like it. He could eat it or not. Okay, so it's okay to hear it.

But today, seeing that Gu Xian seemed to like it very much, he remembered this matter again, thinking about when he would ask Gu Lin again, write down the prescription, and let Gu Xian take it for a try.

So Wen Yan told Gu Xian about it.

When Gu Xian heard this, he was really interested, "Do you know the specific method?"

Of course he was interested. Before leaving Beijing, he also had a good understanding of the situation in the place where he was going to take office. The situation was not optimistic.

Suiye City is a place with little rainfall and barren land. It is difficult to grow crops, let alone other cash crops. It can be said that what is planted will die. Therefore, although the people of Suiye City are very diligent, they still Life is miserable, and the officials sent there before, no matter how clean and honest they were before, will turn into huge corruption when they get there.

Under the double pressure of harsh natural environment and corrupt officials, the people of Suiye City are really struggling to survive.

After understanding these situations, Gu Xian has been thinking about how to carry out his work after taking office, and how to find an effective way for the common people there to get rid of poverty and become rich.

If the planting of fungus can be carried out on a large scale as Wen Yan said, it is probably a solution. Of course, this specific situation still needs to be checked in the local area. It is not certain that the local environment is not suitable for planting fungus Woolen cloth.

But this is a method after all, so Gu Xian seemed a little eager.

Wen Yan shook his head, "I also heard from Gu Lin that there was such a thing, how to do it depends on Gu Lin."

Gu Xian was not disappointed when he heard that, after all, Gu Lin was by his side, and he would understand later when he asked. He suddenly remembered the pictures that Gu Lin drew in the capital. I didn't have a very in-depth understanding of the preparations for the imperial examination.

Later, I didn't pay attention to these things anymore, and I don't know how Gu Lin dealt with these drawings later.

He knew that Gu Lin knew a lot of recipes, blueprints and other things, but he didn't know if he could come up with some.

To be honest, Gu Xian was also a little embarrassed. He always felt that asking Gu Lin for these things was a bit too much, but now there was such a good prescription, and he didn't want to miss it, so he silently calculated in his heart, thinking about finding a way to make it easier for him. Both parties benefit, the best of both worlds.

Seeing the pensive look, Wen Yan didn't bother him, just looked at the water in the pot.

The pot was already boiling, just when Gu Lin came back with the cleaned mushrooms and threw the mushrooms into the pot, he found Gu Xian standing by the side in a daze.

Gu Lin reached out to touch Gu Xian, "What are you thinking about, do you miss Ah Ce?"

Only then did Gu Xian regain his senses. Hearing Gu Lin's words, he glanced at Ah Ce, who was squatting seriously by the stove, and then at Gu Lin. He looked confused, "Isn't Ah Ce over there? What do you want him to do?"

"Then why are you in a daze?" Gu Lin asked while stirring the mushrooms in the pot.

"I'm just thinking about a question." Gu Xian looked at the mushrooms in the pot. The mushrooms had been rolling in the soup, and they seemed to be almost cooked, so he thought for a while, "You cook the soup first, after eating, I'll talk to you again."

"That's fine." Gu Lin, who was so focused on the soup, was not in a hurry to talk to Gu Xian, but just responded.

Seeing that he agreed, Gu Xian didn't say much, just sat on the side and waited for dinner.
