pastoral days

It is said that after Song Chaoyang left, Zhang Ruiwen was listless for the first few days, doing what he did and eating what he didn't like.Everyone looked anxious.

Zhang Ruiwen is actually not particularly sad, but since they got married, the two have been separated for no more than two days, and as the only insider in the family, he has to worry about the safety of the two people far away.So the whole person is a bit depressed.

However, Zhang Ruiwen was an optimist. After a few days of depression, he learned from the pain and figured out the responsibilities he should bear during Song Chaoyang's absence.After all, I can't let my father and the others worry about him anymore.

So one day Song Gang and his wife saw an energetic son-in-law.With those bright eyes, they all thought their son had returned.My eyes wandered around the house, but I couldn't find it.Just a little confused.

"Dad, what do you need at home, I'll buy it for you today." Zhang Ruiwen looked at Song Lai who was in a daze and said.

"Oh, I don't need anything. Do you want to go out? I'll go with you," Song Lai said.

"That's okay, dad, I want to learn how to cook." During the meal, Zhang Ruiwen suddenly said another sentence.

"This... why does Xiaowen want to learn how to cook again?" Song Lai looked at Song Gang after hearing this.Song Gang thought about the last time Zhang Ruiwen set fire to the kitchen, and asked a little uncertainly.

"I just want to cook for you in the future, and now I get up early in the morning, and I don't have much to do when I wake up," Zhang Ruiwen said shyly.Now his life and rest are regular, even if he lies in bed at night, it takes a while to fall asleep, but without the interference of Brother Song (nocturnal activities), he can wake up very early in the morning, okay?

"No need to learn, haha. Just wake up in the morning and help dad prepare breakfast together. Besides, you can also go to the greenhouse to have a look. The vegetable seeds are planted, and maybe someday the seedlings will grow when you wake up in the morning." Song Laike It is necessary to dispel Zhang Ruiwen's dangerous idea.He didn't want to miss breakfast one morning and the kitchen was gone.

"Can it germinate so quickly? Didn't corn take a long time?" Sure enough, when it came to Zhang Ruiwen's hobby, Zhang Ruiwen's attention was immediately attracted.

"Of course, the vegetable grows fast. You are like that kind of small rapeseed. It is estimated that you can eat it in less than a month." Song Lai himself was too excited to think about it.Obviously there are too many rotten vegetables in summer, but they are expensive in winter.He is also a little hungry.

Song Gang was at the side, and he was slightly relieved to hear that Zhang Ruiwen was not struggling with Zhang Ruiwen's thoughts about cooking.

After Zhang Ruiwen helped Song Lai clean up the table, he immediately went to his shed.The temperature in the greenhouse is a bit low, but it is still relatively warmer than outside.Looking left and right, I really didn't find any signs of green shoots in any field.

After a while Song Lai also came over, the two of them looked at the currently lifeless land, and they were also a little worried.I really want to eat some green leaves.

"Xiaowen, the temperature is still a little low," Song Lai said after thinking for a while.The problem of temperature has not been completely solved after they set up a greenhouse.

"Then let's set up a stove in the shed?" Zhang Ruiwen actually said casually.However, the two were silent for a moment, and the more they felt feasible.

"Let your father get one when he comes back." Song Lai made Song Ganglai feel no pressure.

"Hmm..." Zhang Ruiwen nodded repeatedly.

"Let's go and see Xiaomi. I made him a padded coat a few days ago, just for him to try it on." After Song saw his son left, Zhang Ruiwen had never been out of the house, and wanted to take him out for a walk.

"Okay, I just went to look for my brother." Zhang Ruiwen thought about it now, since Big Brother Song was not here, he had to take on the responsibility of taking care of the family.And the Chinese New Year is coming soon, it is estimated that express delivery and Youjiawei will be busy for a while, so he went to see if he could help.

Without Song Chaoyang, it would be a problem for Zhang Ruiwen and Song Lai to go to the county seat by carriage.The two of them have always just been in a carriage, and they don't need to drive it.But Zhang Rui, a literary and artistic expert, was bold and said yes with a pat on the chest.It was Zhang Ruiwen's first time to control the carriage by himself, it was a novelty.

Song Lai was also very big-hearted, and got into the car of Zhang Ruiwen's new driver.In addition to being fast and slow, and a little bumpy, it is really tolerable.

"Xiaowen, let's get out of the car and go. There are too many people here, don't bump into them." However, when approaching the county town, Song Lai still called a stop.Zhang Ruiwen also had some self-knowledge, and the two led the carriage slowly into the county.

People coming and going looked at them from time to time.The two twins are walking slowly with a tall and thick carriage, and it doesn't look like there is anything on the carriage. What is this behavior?

Everyone suspected that there was something wrong with these two people, their hair was a little messy, or they were just showing off, after all, there were not many such carriages in the entire county.

Zhang Ruiwen and Song Lai were embarrassed all the way, with so many eyes on them, they didn't dare to speak, they only hoped to arrive at Zhang's residence soon.

"Young master, are you back? Master Song is here too?" As soon as Zhang Ruiwen and Song Lai appeared at the door, the servants at the door immediately came to welcome them.The two took things from the carriage, handed the horse to the young man, and rushed into Zhang's mansion immediately.

"Hello, young master, hello, master Zhang." Along the way, servants and maidservants kept saying hello.When they reached the living room, Mrs. Zhang was already waiting there.

"Xiaowen, why haven't I seen you for a few days. Your brother said that Chaoyang asked for leave again, did you go out to play? Just came back?" Mrs. Zhang looked at Zhang Ruiwen and Song Lai's messy hair blown by the cold wind and speculated. .

"Hehe..." Zhang Ruiwen looked at his father and lowered his head shyly, thinking about the excitement along the way, he felt a little guilty for no reason.

"Where is Chaoyang?" Mrs. Zhang felt that the two of them had something to do, so she was embarrassed to ask her in-laws, so she directly asked where her son Song Chaoyang was.

"Brother Song hasn't come back yet, he went out on his own due to something else. I've been staying at home for the past few days." Zhang Ruiwen pretended to be calm, thinking in his heart that if no one found out, he could still pass by.

"Then how did you come here?" The looks of Mrs. Zhang and the two of them could not have come here by running.

"Take a carriage..." Zhang Ruiwen whispered.

"..." Mrs. Zhang suddenly had a terrible thought. "The car you drive." Mrs. Zhang expressed her guess with a declarative sentence.

"My in-laws, it's really hard work for you." Seeing Zhang Ruiwen's guilty expression, Mrs. Zhang knew that her guess was pretty close.The mischief still drags the elders, but fortunately Song Lai has always been kind to him.

"It's okay, Xiaowen listened well the first time, I don't even dare to drive." Song Lai was a little shy, a little embarrassed to mess around with the younger generation.But it was really exciting. After shouting a few times just now, the whole person feels refreshed a lot, even a little exhausted.

"Hehe, as long as it's okay, that is, you let him mess around. Hurry up and drink some hot tea to calm the shock." Mrs. Zhang quickly handed him a cup of hot tea.

"Uncle...Uncle" came the voice of a child from far and near outside.As soon as I heard it, Zhang Xiaomi was here.

Zhang Ruiwen and Song Lai were shaken and looked outside quickly.

"As soon as the servants said that Xiao Wen and Uncle Song are here, Xiaomi can't do it anymore, and is in a hurry to come. Xiaomi likes you the most, and if I let him choose, my mother doesn't know where to go." Mo Xuelian entered the door It's funny to say.

Zhang Xiaomi smirked at the side: Uncle always brings delicious and fun things.Grandpa Song always cooks delicious food.So I like it very much.

"Xiaomi, be good." Zhang Ruiwen wanted to step forward and give Zhang Xiaomi a hug, but Zhang Xiaomi stared at Zhang Ruiwen for a while, and then refused, babbling non-stop, unable to understand.Then he fell into Song Lai's arms.

Zhang Ruiwen rolled his eyes aside. "I haven't seen you for a few days, you don't know uncle anymore, little white-eyed wolf"

Zhang Xiaomi looked back at him, made gestures with Song Lai in a frantic manner, and got into the arms of the one who sent him.

Zhang Xiaomi: Uncle has a little brother in his belly, so I dare not make trouble with him.Naihe Er and other mortals don't understand what I mean.So sad.

"Xiaowen, it is said that Chaoyang has gone out, what did he do, why is there no news at all?" Mo Xuelian could hear her husband-in-law complaining every night these days, as a good wife, she felt that she needed to inquire.

"Brother Song will be busy recently, and he probably won't be back for a long time." Zhang Ruiwen didn't have a suitable reason, so he could only speak ambiguously, and give more time.Now the return date is mainly undecided.

"It's so mysterious, it will be the twelfth lunar month soon..." Mo Xuelian said cryptically.What she meant was that it was about to enter the peak period, and her husband would be exhausted to death.

"Brother Song's matter this time is more important. If I'm busy then, I will go to the store to help brother," Zhang Ruiwen said seriously.He had already thought about it. During the time when Brother Song was away, he would take good care of his family and help him take care of his business.

"Oh, I'll just say it casually. If I'm busy, I can help. It's just not very good." Mo Xuelian said awkwardly. It is just enough for her to be a housekeeper now, and it is still a bit difficult to do business.But I can't help you with a lot of help, so I will help you with a little help when the time comes.

"Haven't the sun come back?" Mrs. Zhang asked in surprise.

"I don't know. Brother Song said he will come back after the matter is settled." Zhang Ruiwen said with a guilty conscience.After all, they are the only ones in the family talking about Ah Rui's affairs.

"By the way, my dad and I built a big shed at home to grow vegetables. When the vegetables grow, everyone is welcome to eat hot pot at my house," Zhang Ruiwen said arrogantly.Think about it, if the greenhouse can really grow green vegetables, he will be so arrogant.

"Green vegetables?" Mrs. Zhang said in surprise. "After eating dried vegetables all winter, I really miss summer vegetables. I'm a bit greedy just like you said."

"I want to see it, Xiaowen." Mo Xuelian also expressed excitement and curiosity when she heard it. Regardless of whether it can grow or not, the greenhouse is a mysterious thing.Mo Xuelian felt itchy in her heart.

"Okay, when are you free? I just fried some sunflower seeds for you," Song Lai also said with a smile.This kind of life of three-day small gathering and five-day big gathering is really lively.

Song Lai asked Xiaomi to try the cotton padded clothes he made, but he could only say that it was made to grow bigger. With Zhang Xiaomi's growth rate, it has only grown in a few days, and it fits right now.

Zhang Xiaomi was wearing a new cotton padded jacket, walking around on the ground with her little thick legs, like a magical big rooster.

As for Zhang Xiaomi's new clothes, he likes the ones made by Grandpa Song the most.Because the pockets of the clothes made by Grandpa Song are very large, he can secretly pack some delicious food.

"Xiaowen is here, what do you want to eat, I'll buy you something" Zhang Ruihua heard the laughter at home as soon as he got home.I felt that my fatigue also dissipated.

"Brother" Zhang Ruiwen shouted happily when he saw Zhang Ruihua.

"Haha, Chaoyang didn't come to see me until he left," Zhang Ruihua said sourly.

"No, by the way, I'll help you when I'm busy in a while." Zhang Ruiwen pulled his brother's sleeve and said.

"Well, okay, brother, thank you in advance." Of course Zhang Ruihua agreed unceremoniously.There are so many things to do in the twelfth lunar month, and my younger brother handles things quickly, so of course I won't give up such a good opportunity.Zhang Ruihua was afraid that his younger brother would go back on his word, so he immediately agreed.

"Don't tell me about Chaoyang..." Zhang Ruihua said in Zhang Ruiwen's ear.The three of them can be said to have grown up together since they were young. He never knew what else Song Zhaoyang could do. He couldn't tell him to deal with it, and he didn't know how long it would take.Intuitively, the younger brother and his wife have something important to hide from everyone.

"It's nothing, I'm just busy..." Zhang Ruiwen said inarticulately.Anyway, he just didn't say anything, even if he was forced to say nothing.

"You guys, I'm so mad." Seeing Zhang Ruiwen's death, Zhang Ruihua felt helpless.He poked his forehead vigorously with his hand.

"Sister-in-law, look at him... Take care!" Zhang Ruiwen covered his forehead and called Mo Xuelian.

"Looking at the two bastards" Mrs. Zhang couldn't stop laughing as she watched the two play tricks.

"Giggle..." Although Zhang Xiaomi didn't know why everyone laughed, but everyone laughed, and he would still laugh along with it.

After playing with Xiaomi for a while, Zhang Ruiwen and Song Lai were ready to go home.But going back is also a problem. Zhang Ruiwen still intends to drive back by himself. After all, the carriage is still there, but he is strongly opposed by others.

"My God, you are going to go to heaven for your courage. Let the boy take you back. Your carriage will not be used recently, and we will send it there when we go to your house next time." Madam Zhang gave orders after finishing speaking. .

"Okay," Zhang Ruiwen repeatedly agreed.He just tried to be brave and said that he drove back by himself.

It was almost evening when Zhang Ruiwen and Song Lai returned home, and Song Gang was already at home.The two looked at Song Gang with bright eyes, which startled him.He was not at home this day, and he missed something.

"Brother Gang, let me tell you something." Zhang Ruiwen gave his father a look, and Song Lai said softly to Song Gang. "We want you to install a stove in the shed"

"Oh... ah... okay." Song Gang looked at the two people mysteriously, thinking that there was something wrong, but he was slightly relieved when he heard that it was just a stove.He thought it was a big deal.

The materials at home were also available. Song Gang saw the faces of the two who could hardly wait, and skillfully set up a stove in the shed. "The soil is not dry yet, I guess it will take a few days before it can be used." It successfully caught the eyes of two fans.

"Then let's put a brazier here at night, just to see the difference between hot and not hot." Zhang Ruiwen thought for a while and said.

Of course, after a busy day, the three of them ate dinner hastily.After a tiring day, I'm really a little tired.

In the dead of night, Zhang Ruiwen was lying on the bed, thinking about what Song Chaoyang was doing at this point, and by the way, made up some plots in his storybook, and fell asleep without knowing it.
