Depressed little landlord

Still going back the same way, Xu Yang chopped off a few moso bamboos and brought them back, and asked Grandma Li or Zhu Zhu to help weave some cages, so that if he caught prey, there would be something to put it in.There were quite a lot of dead branches in the woods, and the two of them picked up some when they saw them, and planned to carry a bundle on their backs. These could be burned for several days when they went back.

"There are so many dead trees here, why didn't everyone come to pick them up?" Lin Xuan asked curiously while tying the dead branches from the middle with the vines he found.

Xu Yang didn't know very well, he added a few more roots to his own part, and then tied a circle around the roots with vines, tied them tightly, and answered casually: "Maybe it's because it's more inward here, for fear of danger. Bar."

After tying both the head and the tail, I looked up at Lin Xuan, and saw that he only tied it at the middle, so I walked over, pulled a vine and started to help him tie it again at the root and the end.

"It's not easy to tie like this, and it's easier to carry."

Lin Xuan tried it out, and found that it was much tighter than when he tied it in one circle before, and it didn't have the tendency to fall down as soon as it was erected.

"You still have experience."

Facing Lin Xuan's unsparing praise, Xu Yang just smiled and helped him carry the firewood on his back: "Try to see if it's heavy. If it's too heavy, reduce it."

Lin Xuan tried it, and felt that he could carry it on his back, and it wasn't very heavy, so he nodded: "Yes, I can carry it on my back."

"Well, if you are tired, put it halfway and come back to pick it up when you have time."

When the two arrived home, Hairline's house was cleaned very clean and things were neatly placed. As soon as Xiao Lin Xun saw Lin Xuan and Xu Yang coming back, he rushed over, but when he saw both of them carrying things, he rushed over. He didn't jump on him, but stood in front of him with a blushing, dirty face but happily said: "Brother, Brother Yang, we beat Shushu."

It was quite easy to clean at the beginning, but halfway through, Lin Xuan felt very heavy. In addition, the mountain road was difficult to walk, and he was not used to it. The roots would always hit the trees and grass in front, or the back would sway when turning. When it got stuck in something else, Xu Yang didn't persuade him to put it away first, and then come back to get it when he goes back and put it away, but Lin Xuan's little stubbornness came up, and he had to recite everything by himself, what else did he say? He had to try everything himself to know what it was like, so that he could remember how hard it was.

Xu Yang had no choice but to agree to him, and followed patiently behind, taking care not to let him fall and get hurt along the way.Therefore, the return trip took twice as long as the previous trip. Fortunately, the distance is so long, and it will still be time to get home.

Lin Xuan didn't bother to respond to Lin Xun's words. He was sweating and put the firewood on the wall first, but at this moment he was so tired that he couldn't bend his back. It was better for Xu Yang to put the firewood away first, and then came to carry the firewood with both hands. He picked up the faggot from his shoulders and laid it next to his own.

The pressure on his shoulders was instantly removed, and Lin Xuan suddenly felt much better. When he looked up, he saw Xu Yang looking at him with eyes of disapproval and pity (?), and said with an embarrassing "hehe" two laughs: "Mistakes, mistakes, mistakes. , next time I won’t try to be brave again.”

Xu Yang looked at him for a while, finally sighed, and said helplessly, "Go in, wash your face and change your clothes, I'll see how sweaty you are."

Seeing that he didn't pursue it, Lin Xuan heaved a sigh of relief and at the same time felt a sense of joy that he didn't know why. After hearing Xu Yang's words, the smile on his face couldn't be stopped, and he bent over Picking up Lin Xun, he gave him a big kiss on his small face without being too dirty, and said happily and loudly: "Xun'er, let's go take a bath and change clothes with my brother."

Lin Xun also giggled happily, and didn't care whether Lin Xuan's face was equally dirty and sweaty. He followed Lin Xuan's example and kissed on the face, nodding frequently: "Okay, take a bath~ Yang Is your brother coming too?"

Hearing this, Xu Yang paused for a moment, looking at the faces of the two brothers who were rosy due to exercise even though they were stained with dust, and seeing the two looking at him at the same time with similar eyes, Xu Yang suddenly Feeling a little dry in the mouth, he coughed dryly and tried to answer with a normal voice: "You guys go first, I'll go and put things away first."

Lin Xuan nodded after hearing this, but didn't notice his strangeness, just smiled and said to him: "Then hurry up, Xun'er and I will go in first."

Lin Xun also waved to Xu Yang, grinningly told him to hurry up, he and his brother would wash together when he came back, Xu Yang agreed with a smile.

After the two brothers disappeared behind the door, Xu Yang looked back, and rubbed his face casually with his big hand, as if wiping sweat, then stared at his palm for a long time, until the chick accidentally ran away It was only when he came over and bumped into his heel that he suddenly came back to his senses.

"cough!"

After coughing again, Xu Yang withdrew his hand and calmly took the hoe and hatchet into the house and put it away.

Not far away, the butler Hua in the corner of the yard happened to see this scene, and couldn't help frowning Hua's eyebrows.

During dinner, both parties reported on their labor and results today. Although Lin Xuan and Xu Yang have not seen results yet, they heard that they might catch prey. Lin Xun and Xiaoju are very happy and looking forward to it. The housekeeper also looked forward to it.

"We'll see if it works tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Even if it didn't happen before, maybe we'll catch it after a while?" Lin Xuan also said with confidence and expectation, "And it won't work there, We can also try another place, and we will always catch it.”

"Yes, Xiaoxuan is right." Steward Hua looked a little proud and embarrassed, "I failed to take good care of you young masters, and young master Xun is still growing. How long has it been since he had a bite of meat?"

Hearing this, Lin Xuan also put away the smile on his face. Looking at Lin Xun who was trying to spoon porridge, he hurriedly picked up chopsticks and vegetables for him, and got a sweet smile from Douding.For Lin Xun, he also felt guilty. If he had been more capable, he would not have allowed everyone to live the life they are now.

"Eat first." Xu Yang seemed to understand what he was thinking at once, and interrupted them hurriedly.He also gave Lin Xuan a piece of food with chopsticks, and urged him to eat quickly, "Go to bed early after eating, tomorrow I have to check the rice and corn in the field, go early, the sun is too hot during the day."

"Thank you, you can eat too." Lin Xuan also gave Xu Yang a smiling face, and then politely served him some food, while Xu Yang smiled and handed over the bowl to pick it up.

"Ahem--"

The two of you were helping me and I helping you, when the Butler Hua coughed heavily and looked at this side with deep eyes, to be exact, at Xu Yang.

Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment, looked over, then smiled, then half stood up and picked up chopsticks dishes and put them in the bowl of Butler Hua: "Grandpa eats too."

The flower steward hurriedly picked up the bowl, and smiled at Lin Xuan like a flower, but said, "I can do it myself, Xiao Xuan, you can eat by yourself." Xu Yang glanced at him.

Xu Yang...followed him as if he was nothing, which made Steward Hua stare darkly when he saw him.

"Yangzi, come to my room after dinner, I have something to tell you."

Hearing this, everyone at the table looked at him, and then at Xu Yang.Xu Yang also looked at Steward Hua, then calmly nodded in agreement.

"it is good."

*****

In the small room, when Xu Yang came in, he found that the flower housekeeper had still lit a candle, and there was only a section about a finger long left. The house is too old. Although Xu Yang and the pillars were repaired at the beginning, there are still leaks in the gaps in the wall , causing the candlelight to sway with the wind, and the expression on the face of the butler Hua who was sitting by the bed flickered, making it hard to see clearly.

"Grandpa, I'm here." Xu Yang stood at the door and called out.

"What about the young master?"

"Sleep."

Butler Hua looked back for a long time before saying, "Come in."

Xu Yang paused for a moment, then walked in and put down the curtain, and stood still three steps away.

"Grandpa, just ask if you have anything to say."

Butler Hua looked up at the tall man in front of him, his expression became complicated again, but his tone was stern: "Yangzi, do you still remember what I said before?"

Xu Yang also looked back at him, and said calmly: "I remember, I just don't know what Grandpa has to say this time?"

"Remember?" Butler Hua gasped heavily, staring at Xu Yang even more severely, pointing at Xu Yang with trembling fingers, "You, you! What do you want me to say about you? I have clearly warned you , shouldn't get too close to the young master..."

"Shouldn't it?" Before he finished speaking, Xu Yang suddenly asked two words in his deep voice, watching Steward Hua's eyes slightly darken, and asked again without any emotion: "Grandpa, What do you mean you shouldn't get too close to the young master?"

Hearing this, Steward Hua's chest heaved up and down, and his eyes stared at Xu Yang as if they were about to pop out. This time he pointed directly at Xu Yang bluntly, but this time his hands were shaking with anger.

The man who hated iron and steel yelled in a low voice, almost roaring: "Young master is young master, you are you, if you...you..." After that, he really didn't want to say it for a while, watching Xu Yang instead persuasively persuaded, "Yang Boy, you have to remember your own identity, no matter what, the young master is still the young master after all, there will be no good results for the two of you!" The last sentence became severe again.

Xu Yang didn't speak for a long while, and stood there with lowered eyes slightly.

Steward Hua thought that he was silent because he listened to what he said, and felt a little relieved and a little distressed, after all, he was really thinking about Xu Yang.

So he sighed in his heart, and was about to say something comforting, but he didn't want to be slapped by Xu Yang's sudden words. Of course, he wanted to slap the person in front of him before he slapped himself. pause.

"You see it?"

"..."

What he just opened his mouth to say choked back, and Steward Hua almost couldn't bring it up. He was so choked that he covered his chest and his eyes turned black. It took a long time to catch his breath.

"You, you, you..." You didn't say a complete sentence for a long time, what he said before you dared to love was nothing.

Xu Yang hurriedly knelt down and stroked his chest to help him breathe, looked at the steward Hua and said seriously: "Grandpa, I have my own measure, you don't have to worry."

When Steward Hua heard the explosion, he couldn't control his voice and shouted loudly: "How can I not worry? Ah? You think..."

"Hush! They're all asleep."

Seeing Xu Yang's index finger sticking up on his lips and making comparisons, Steward Hua was still angry, but he also realized that his voice was louder, so he lowered his voice unwillingly, and couldn't help but raised his hand to pat Xu Yang.

"Why are you disobedient? Leaving aside your identities, do you think the young master likes men? How attentive was the young master Liu back then? But look at the young master... why don't you have a long memory?"

"grandfather……"

"Forget it!" Hua Steward suddenly said, turning his head and waving his hands to let Xu Yang leave, "Go back and rest."

But when Xu Yang was about to leave the room, he suddenly called out to stop him: "Yangzi, you promise me that you won't speak before the young master notices."

Xu Yang stared at Steward Hua for a long time before he replied with a heavy "Yes", then turned and left the room.

In the room, Steward Hua was still looking at the door, and it took a long time for a sigh to be heard in the room, and then the candlelight was blown out by a gust of wind, and the surroundings suddenly fell into darkness.
