The system forces me to flirt
Chapter 61 Mountain (4)
The night before, I was still thinking about the snow, but when I woke up the next morning, I saw that there was a thick layer of snow outside the window in the night.
The sky was still dark, and heavy snow like goose feathers drifted down from the thick dark clouds.
In such weather, no matter how industrious the farmers are, they would not go out. The whole family gathered around the specially repaired firepit in the main room and talked by the fire.
For Cen Xi, everything is novel, roasting a warm bonfire, listening to Wang Desheng and his wife talking about this year’s harvest and next year’s planting plan, and occasionally responding to Wang Mingchuan’s curiosity about the outside world. Questions about the university.
At noon, Wang Mingchuan's mother set up a hanging pot on the fire pond, made a soup base with mushrooms, seasoned with autumn peppers, ginger, and garlic cloves, and cooked a pot of mixed vegetables like this, which is similar to a hot pot .
In the evening, the heavy snow stopped. If you look around, even if it is because the mountains here are mostly trees that do not lose their leaves in winter, after the heavy snow covers, you can only see a few sporadic ones. Mottled dark green.
"The snow has stopped at this moment. It just so happens that the snow is compacted at night, and we will be able to pass people tomorrow."
So the next day, Cen Xi excitedly followed Wang Mingchuan and his brother to a slope forest with relatively few trees to trap hares.
Originally, Cen Xi thought that trapping rabbits was just a matter of finding the rabbit footprints of a single line and then setting off the trap and waiting, but it turned out that it was not so simple to do so.
Wang Mingchuan first checked the messy and disorderly rabbit footprints on the snow, and confirmed that there were not a small number of wild rabbits infesting nearby, so he led a few people to set up traps in several places.
The so-called sleeve is a live loop made of wire, and the other end is set on the nearest tree trunk or shrub.
After putting off the more than 20 rabbit covers he brought, Wang Mingchuan stood up, looked around to determine the direction, and grabbed Cen Xi's hand to choose a path to walk ahead.
The younger brother Wang Minghu who insisted on following was dragged forward by his second sister.
Fortunately, the snow only reached half the depth of Wang Mingchuan and his calves, which was where Wang Minghu's knees were.
As for his second sister, Wang Minghe, a 12-year-old girl who grows faster than boys, is thin and dark, but taller than boys of the same age. She walks safely and does not need anyone to watch her.
Compared with this, Cen Xi, who was dragged away by Wang Mingchuan, blushed.Pulling his hand, Wang Mingchuan was afraid that he would fall, so he held his hand tightly. Feeling Cen Xi's strength, he didn't let go, so he turned his head and looked at Cen Xi questioningly.
As a result, Cen Xi felt that he was making a fuss over a molehill, so he could only shake his head and follow the opponent's strength to continue walking.
Because they didn't have that habit, neither Wang Mingchuan nor Cen Xi wore gloves.
The air was filled with molecules like cold swishes and ice bumps, but the two held hands tightly, but the palms were warm, and Wang Mingchuan felt that his palms were sweating.
It was good that he didn't pay attention at first, but when he put his attention on the palms of the two people's hands, he felt an inexplicable feeling popping up, causing Wang Mingchuan's ears to turn red inexplicably.
Cen Xi's hands were not as rough as Wang Mingchuan's, and the delicate feeling in his hands was magnified several times.
I don't know if girls' hands are as easy to touch as Xiaoxi's.
Wang Mingchuan's brain twitched, and this question came to his mind.
When he came back to his senses, Wang Mingchuan wished he could slap himself twice on the forehead. When he turned around and saw Cen Xi who was closely following him, he immediately turned his face away uncomfortably, and forced himself to turn his attention back to the leading road.
After walking for about ten minutes, Cen Xi realized where Wang Mingchuan was taking him.
In front of me is a lake that is not too big but not too small. The lake has a big belly and narrow winding channels, which looks like a stomach bag.
"The surface of the lake is frozen. The temperature is low these days. It is estimated that the ice layer on the surface of the lake will harden the day after tomorrow. Then I will take you to dig a hole in the ice and catch fish to roast."
Wang Minghu on the side sucked in his saliva when he heard it, looked at his elder brother eagerly, and muttered that he would come too, but unfortunately even he himself knew that his parents would definitely not agree to it.
He was allowed to come along today because it didn't take long to set the trap. It took more than an hour or two to dig ice and fish.
What's more, the grilled fish that Wang Mingchuan mentioned was not grilled at home, but a bonfire in a nearby abandoned bear cave, which is considered a winter picnic?
In such a cold day, Wang Mingchuan just wanted to let Cen Xi see something fresh, so that he wouldn't let the other party come to his house but have nothing to do to pass the time.
After seeing the situation of the lake, several people went down the mountain. As for the rabbit trap, they had to wait for a long time before going to see it.
Anyway, they didn't hold on to this thing to fill their stomachs, so naturally they didn't need to lie down in the snow and wait, let alone bring two followers, so as not to freeze them to death.
Before dark in the afternoon, Wang Mingchuan took Cen Xi up the mountain. He didn't take the two young ones with him. The two of them walked much faster. When they went uphill, Wang Mingchuan unconsciously wanted to hold Cen Xi's hand again. Cen Xi avoided it with a smile. Leo: "Don't pull me, is it possible that you forgot that I punched someone flying during military training?"
Cen Xi wanted to talk about it in the morning, but he was afraid that talking about it would spoil the children, but now he has no such scruples.
When Wang Mingchuan heard this, he suddenly remembered this, and really forgot.
Not to mention him alone, I'm afraid Tang Jiaxue and Zhou Kaiwei have almost forgotten about him, after all, Cen Xi's appearance is too deceptive, and he looks gentle and gentle, not aggressive at all.
If they were walking on the road, someone like Cen Xi would definitely be the first choice for robbers and hooligans.
Cen Xi has been tossed by 009 since the beginning of school, and his various physical functions are not comparable to ordinary people, even those who have undergone special training, it is impossible for him to improve comprehensively and greatly.
When it came to the place where the trap was set, seven or eight of the more than twenty traps had been harvested. Two of them were injured and still struggling to pull their feet out of the loop, but they could only pull the loop more and more. Tight, the wire was strangled into the flesh.
Rabbits are wild, and when they see people coming, they are very fierce even if they can't escape. Cen Xi didn't pay attention at first, and was almost bitten by a rabbit. This is really a rabbit biting people in a hurry.
Fortunately, Cen Xi's reaction speed was not comparable to that of ordinary people, so there was no danger.
The other couples were put on earlier. They were already exhausted, bleeding and losing body temperature, and lay stiff on the snow.
After finding a suitable position for the buckle, the two returned home with a few rabbits.
In the evening, Wang Mingchuan's mother boiled a pot of rabbits in red, and peeled off the skin to support two bamboo slices, sprinkled with salt and hung them up to make smoked rabbits.
Today's harvest is because the other family has not freed up their hands. If you want to have such a good harvest next time, you will have to go to the mountains.
However, it is not easy to enter the deep mountains. In winter, besides blind bears, there are wolves among the beasts in the mountains.
These days, although everyone is not rich, they haven't reached the point where they have to take risks for a bite to eat.
I went to see it again the next day, and picked up two rabbits. Cen Xi's enthusiasm for trapping rabbits has subsided, but he began to look forward to digging holes in the ice for fishing.
But for the sake of safety, Wang Desheng didn't allow them to go up the mountain until the second heavy snowfall was over a few days later, when the lake was frozen thicker.
Although the places he went to were usually visited by people, Wang Mingchuan still carried an earthen gun just in case.
Fishing in winter, especially in frozen lakes, except that you need to be careful not to crack the surrounding ice when you dig a hole at the beginning, it is not difficult to catch fish.
Compared with the bait that is usually sprinkled for fishing, the oxygen that seeps through the holes in winter makes the fish flock to it.
Once out of the water, after struggling a few times on the ice, it will become a frozen fish in less than 1 minute.
However, because the temperature is too low, the water in the ice hole will have ice again in about half an hour. If you want to continue fishing, you have to hit it while the ice is not thick.
This time the two of them didn't just come up for fun, Wang Mingchuan planned to bring back the fish for the Chinese New Year.
It is already the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and those who are preparing for the new year will start to toss one after another after entering the twelfth lunar month.
Although the conditions in this rural corner are not as good as those in the city, the atmosphere of Chinese New Year is much stronger than that in the city.
Perhaps this year's taste, even in the process of saving new year's goods, I also saved up little by little.
Wang Mingchuan was used to the ice and snow since he was a child, and Cen Xi's physical fitness was extraordinary. The two of them stayed in a daze from morning to noon, and in more than three hours, they filled a basket with frozen fish.
After putting away the fishing rod, Wang Mingchuan habitually pulled Cen Xi's hand and went to the bear cave.
It is said that the bear cave has been abandoned for many years, and it has long been turned into a resting place by people who entered the mountain.
There is dry grass paved on the ground where you can sit directly, and there is a firepit with stones in the middle.
Regarding Wang Mingchuan's practice of always pulling him out of the habit, turning his head and admonishing him when he climbed a small slope, Cen Xi also said it, but the other party still couldn't change this habit, what else could he do except accept it?
'Do I really look needy? '
Pursing his lips depressed, Cen Xi poked the dozing 009 with his hand in his pocket.
Although he is warm-hearted and grateful for the considerate care given to him by others, he is still a man anyway.
In his previous life, he was a big man who was three years old, but now a nineteen-year-old boy has developed such a habit, Cen Xi feels a little ashamed.
Could it be that he is a weak chicken?
No way, Cen Xi was a little uncertain when he thought about his thin body but covered with a thin layer of muscles.
009 snorted and ignored him.When Cen Xi poked its butt again, it turned around and pecked at Cen Xi's fingertips.
Since being tossed about by the hen for two days, 009 has learned to be smart. He clings to Cen Xi every day and refuses to leave. These days, he squats in Cen Xi’s pocket during the day and sleeps next to Cen Xi’s pillow at night. Get together.
Since he planned to take Cenxi to experience it at noon, Wang Mingchuan also prepared it when he went out, including a knife for cutting fish, simple seasonings, and corn buns that can really give people a sense of satiety.
Disembowel the fish and scrape the scales in the snow, scrub it clean with snow, return it to the cave to marinate it with salt, and then set up the cold nest to bake. After a few minutes, the fish meat tastes good, then put on iron skewers and roast it on the fire. Then, throw two more sweet potatoes into the fire and bury them as dessert.
This arrangement is not shabby at all.
Calling Cen Xi to look at it is also very fresh, staring at the grilled fish with staring eyes, ready to turn the skewer at any time, for fear that it will be burnt somewhere.
In fact, there was nothing burnt about roasting things over an open fire, but seeing Cen Xi's concentration, the corners of Wang Mingchuan's mouth curled up secretly, but he didn't remind Cen Xi.
Against the flames on one side, Wang Mingchuan suddenly realized that his fourth brother was really good-looking. He didn't pay attention to it before, but now he understands why so many girls in the school secretly came to ask him about Cen Xi.
Therefore, the more familiar people are, the less likely they are to discover the beauty and ugliness of those around them, unless they are particularly beautiful or ugly.
To be honest, Cen Xi is not the kind of person who can be amazed at a glance. Maybe it's because the facial features still have the peculiar immatureness of young people, but those eyes are unforgettable at a glance.
It is clean and thorough, as if you can see the bottom at a glance, but it gives people a feeling that no matter what mistakes you make, the other party will tolerate you with a good temper, making people unconsciously relax and even rely on the other party.
So, don't look at him who can't help but habitually take care of each other in his daily life, but in fact, only he knows in his heart that he is not dependent on the other party in his heart.
And when taking care of each other, the kind of satisfaction from the heart makes people feel an illusion of happiness.
Wang Mingchuan felt that maybe he wasn't the only one who felt this way. It was obvious that Zhou Kaiwei, who was like a bully, couldn't help taking care of Cen Xi in his daily life.
The sky was still dark, and heavy snow like goose feathers drifted down from the thick dark clouds.
In such weather, no matter how industrious the farmers are, they would not go out. The whole family gathered around the specially repaired firepit in the main room and talked by the fire.
