Depressed little landlord

The days in autumn are shortening day by day, and the afterglow of the setting sun seems to be replaced by darkness after a quick meeting with everyone. Lin Xuan and the others returned home just before the sky darkened.

Today's harvest is not bad. All kinds of wild animals are trying to eat fat for the winter. Although the big prey has not been caught, there are some unnamed birds and small animals in pheasants and hares. It looks good. Considerable.

Originally planned to make delicious food in the morning, but because he came back too late, and it was rare to go into the forest in person, whether it was for fun, picking wild fruits and mushrooms, or chasing prey together, these were all things for Qi Ling. It's a rare experience, it's natural to be happy, but it's just exhausting.

So when he came back, he just had a quick meal and went back to his room to rest, so he could only say sorry for Lin Xuan's appointment.

Although Lin Xuan felt a little regretful, the event he had originally planned would be fine even if it was held at night, but seeing Qi Ling's tired face, he could only reschedule it with regret.

Now that there are more people in the family, he and Xu Yang don't need to deal with the prey at all. If they are still alive, they will be locked up. If they are dead or ready to die, Mrs. Tian and Mother Xu will take advantage of the fire. As soon as the hair was ironed, the hair was cut, and the neck was cut, Xiaoju naturally helped each other.

Because the ditches have not been dug yet, and we need to get up early tomorrow, the three boys have already gone back to their room to sleep. Lao Tian is still cleaning the donkey shed, and his son Huzi helps him hold the torch to light it.

There was still a busy scene in the backyard, but there was no noise.It was already dark in the west room. If you listen closely to the eaves, you might be able to hear the long snoring sound inside.

In the room on the right side of the main house, there is still some light coming through the gaps in the curtains that have been lowered, indicating that the host has not rested yet, and the people behind are more relaxed in their words and actions.

"Xiaoju, why is Boy Yang sleeping in the main room?" Mother Xu glanced at the room that was still lit, and asked Xiaoju in a low voice. Sister-in-law Tian was actually a little curious, but she felt that she didn't ask when she first came here.

Xiao Ju wiped the sweat off her forehead with her arm, and replied casually, "Brother Xu Yang sleeps there all the time."

Mother Xu and Aunt Tian: "..."

"Did the steward Hua not say anything?"

Xiao Ju looked up at them, puzzled: "There were not enough rooms before, Brother Xu Yang was with Master Xuan and the others, maybe he's used to it."

Seeing her innocent face, Xu's mother sighed helplessly in her heart, it seems that she should go and talk to the flower steward herself.

Boy Yang and Eldest Young Master...

Frowning slightly, Mother Xu decided to go talk to Steward Hua this morning.

Lin Xuan didn't know anything at the moment, he was holding a piece of clothing and sighing.

To be exact, there are several holes in each piece, and even a few strands of cloth have been turned into the left sleeve.

"Can you make it up like this?"

Lin Xuan grabbed the pieces of cloth, feeling sad.Today I was too focused on chasing prey, and I didn't even care about my clothes being torn by branches and thorns. "This is the only clothes I have. If I can't mend it, what should I wear for work?"

While Xu Yang sorted the confiscated gifts into boxes and put them away, he took the time to glance back and said calmly, "Take it and sew it for Mother Xu and you'll know."

Hua Luo looked at the things in his hand and paused for a moment, then signaled to Lin Xuan casually: "The fabric that Young Master Liu sent suits you very well, it's just a replacement."

Hearing this, Lin Xuan glanced at the fabric, and then acted suddenly excited: "Hey, it's pretty good."

Xu Yang: ...

Looking helplessly and dotingly at Lin Xuan, who was showing a small smug smile because he had nothing to say for a while, Xu Yang was depressed for a while, then laughed too, and continued to pack his things.

He knew that no matter how courteous that Young Master Liu was, Xiaoxuan would not accept him.

Lin Xuan was also secretly delighted at Xu Yang's jealousy, but he didn't want him to be unhappy about it, so he explained subconsciously: "It doesn't mean anything that we accept it on a day like yesterday, so don't worry, I just want to You...and it's not like you don't know what my second uncle is like, and there must be their purpose for coming here in person..."

Under the gaze of the other party, Lin Xuan suddenly couldn't continue speaking, his voice became lower and lower, and finally disappeared altogether, his face was slightly hot, and he turned his face away and pretended to help Douding cover the quilt.

Ever since Lin Xuan started talking, Xu Yang turned to look at him with tender eyes. When he was shy and stopped, Xu Yang looked at him with more gentle and doting eyes, and said with a smile: "I know."

There was an ambiguous atmosphere in the room without a sound, one pretended to make an effort to tidy the quilt, and the other quietly looked at the other and smiled without saying a word.

Fortunately, Lin Xuan quickly adjusted and regained some naturalness. First of all, to break the atmosphere, he looked at Xu Yang again and said, "How about we start a small business?"

Xu Yang didn't say whether it's okay, but asked directly: "What do you want to do?"

"Eat." Lin Xuan answered simply, "I thought about it before, but none of us had that skill at that time, but now we have Mama Xu, although for the chefs in restaurants, Xu's mother may be a lot worse, but it's okay to just make some snacks."

The more Lin Xuan talked, the more excited he became, and the more he felt that it was feasible, "Besides, we are preparing for winter now, and there is not much work to do in the fields. We can just take this time to think about it, do something, and maybe earn a little money... Anyway To be idle is to be idle, right?"

Xu Yang had been listening to him patiently with a smile, and now hearing his questions did not disturb his interest. In fact, he also felt that it was feasible when Lin Xuan was halfway through speaking, and naturally he would not object now.

"Okay, so what do you think of doing?"

Lin Xuan smiled and nodded: "Well, how about barbecue? Or Malatang?"

It's cold, how can this be missing?It's economical and affordable without being too laborious.

Malatang?barbecue?

Xu Yang frowned, but he didn't ask this, but said calmly: "You can do what you want, what do you need me to do?"

"Hey, you must be indispensable, and only you are the only ones I can rest assured to do. How about we try it tomorrow? Let everyone taste it, and if it tastes delicious, we will prepare it. But we have to order it first some tools."

"What kind? I'll find someone to do it tomorrow."

"Well, okay, wait for me to draw it." After thinking for a while, Lin Xuan smiled a little slyly, "I will draw separately, and you can go to several blacksmiths to order."

Seeing him like this, Xu Yang just felt that he couldn't get enough of him, and loved him so much.

"Okay." His voice was a little hoarse, and he turned around to get pen, ink and paper. They didn't reserve it as a study room, but there was a cabinet for these.

Lin Xuan held the brush and sighed. Originally, he was not very good at drawing, let alone using a brush, but here there is nothing but a brush.

Taking advantage of Xu Yang's time grinding ink, Lin Xuan spread out the paper first, scratched his head, thinking whether to try to make a pencil that suits his habits first, anyway, in winter, there is plenty of time for him to think about it.

well!I should have browsed more handmade webpages if I knew it before. If I could switch it at any time, or dream about it, it would be fine, so I can see and exchange objects with him, and let him read more about these aspects of knowledge in the future. He is much more beneficial.

He didn't know if the other party was in the same situation as him. Anyway, after each exchange, he seemed to be able to share certain memories of the other party?

I don't know if he thinks desperately or yells three times, will he call the other party out?Hahaha--

While thinking wildly, he dipped a brush in ink and began to scribble.Lin Xuan, who felt that he had no image in front of Xu Yang, didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Anyway, Xu Yang never made fun of him because of his poor painting skills.

When he got up the next day, he heard that Lin Xuan was going to try some new food today, so Xiang Qing Qiling postponed it for another day, ready to participate with great interest.

And Xu Yang got up early in the morning and took the painting that Lin Xuan worked hard last night, and drove to the town. In addition to custom-made tools, he also had to find some spices.However, this Lin Xuan felt that it might be faster for him to find the ingredients himself. Although he might not know some of the original ingredients, he felt that he knew more about the taste than the people here, so he also went together, just beforehand. Before leaving, he gave Xiang Qing and the others the task of cutting bamboo sticks with a few children in the family.

Barbecue, how can there be less sticks?

Don't look at Qing Qiling and the two of them as adults, but they have a shopkeeper and a young master, and they almost never touch the spring water with their fingers. Their hands-on ability is not as strong as that of others. Fortunately, Lin Xuan also knows that he didn't count on them. , I just don't want to dampen their enthusiasm.

There are not many existing ingredients, and some of them are found in drugstores. Unfortunately, the most important one, Lin Xuan couldn't find it in all the shops in the town, that is cumin.

Xu Yang comforted him while driving the car: "I'll ask someone to help me find it, and I've written down what you said. It may be that we don't have it here, but there are other places. Don't be discouraged, you will always find it."

"You're right." Lin Xuan managed to put away his frustration, and smiled at Xu Yang, "Fortunately, I found a chili pepper, and now making Mala Tang is not a problem."

"We can grow some ourselves if you like."

Xu Yang still liked the smile on his face, which made him feel better. Hearing this, Lin Xuan's eyes lit up, and he smiled in surprise.

"That's right, I'll pick out the seeds and collect them when I go back. We'll try planting them next year, and we won't be afraid to eat as many as we want."

"Then look for it again and see what you need. Let's plant together next year."

"Uh-huh."

While Lin Xuan was happy, he opened his arms excitedly and gave Xu Yang a big hug.Fortunately, this section of the road is on a mountain road, and today is not a market day, so it is difficult to meet a person on the road.

"Xu Yang, you are so kind, I really like you so much! Mua~"

Well, someone is also very brave and unrestrained.

Don’t worry about the lack of meat. Mother Xu and the others didn’t eat any wild animals last night. They happened to be grilled. As soon as Lin Xuan came back, she asked Mother Xu to marinate the meat with seasoning as he said, and then please She researched the sauces to be used. Xu's mother probably was really sensitive to cooking and eating, or had a high talent. After listening to Lin Xuan's talk, she actually figured it out slowly, and some What Lin Xuan had eaten before was even more delicious. Of course, these are all for later.

The sky had just darkened, and Lin Xuan Xiangqing was a little excited. He moved all the things he needed into the yard. Everything was ready, and it was only due to Dongfeng. Well, there was really one thing missing.

"Oops, no charcoal..."

Seeing that everything was laid out, Lin Xuan wanted to cry. He thought of using a rotten frying pan instead of a grill frame, but he forgot the charcoal used for grilling. What should he bake?

After listening to Lin Xuan's explanation, Xiang Qing Qiling and the others looked at each other in blank dismay.

"It's too late to look for it now, so let's burn it directly."

Lin Xuan was very frustrated, but he could only nod his head after listening to their proposal. He couldn't help it. Who told him to forget the most important link?

"Let's light the fire first, there should be some leftovers in the kitchen, and it's almost time to pick some up later." Xu Yang stroked his hair with clean hands to comfort him, "Teach everyone how to bake, Xun'er It's been a long time."

After hearing this, Xiang Qing hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, don't worry about that for now, to eat what you said, Xiao Lingzi and I both kept our stomachs."

In my impression, Lin Xuan had never eaten barbecue in the town, so he told Xiang Qing and the others that this was a fresh way to eat it, but now seeing that Xiang Qing, the owner of the restaurant, was so curious, Lin Xuan felt a little complacent and puzzled , Baking things should be known in every world, right?

Thinking wildly in his mind, Lin Xuan and Xu Yang still started the fire quickly, and there was indeed a fire in the kitchen.

Although Lin Xuan said to have barbecue tonight, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Tian and the others still prepared other meals, so there were naturally some unfinished charcoal fires in the fire pond, so they just took the pot and filled it up.

The charcoal was temporarily settled, and the barbecue was held lively.
