Make a long-term worker as an old attack

After eating a bowl of half noodles, Niu Geng rubbed his slightly swollen belly, feeling a little full.Here Xue Zhaoqing also finished the remaining noodles in the bowl, put the empty bowl in Niu Geng's hand, and motioned him to take it to the kitchen to deliver to the widow.

Xue Zhaoqing stood up alone in the yard, and looked slightly at the sky in the northeast, and it really wasn't as he expected, there was a thick black castle-like cloud rising in the far sky, it looked like it was blowing this way Mile.

Sure enough, as soon as Niu Geng came out of the kitchen, he smelled a peculiar earthy smell from the wind. He had a farmer's special intuition for this smell, and there would always be this smell in the wind before every storm.During the autumn harvest, farmers are most afraid of wind and rain at this time. Most of the food that they have worked so hard to plant in a year will be ruined by a heavy rain.

When Niu Geng came, he paid attention to several other tenants. It seemed that several of them had collected their grain and stored it in the granary, but the sister-in-law of this family?

"Sister-in-law, have you collected all your family's grain in the granary?" Niu Geng asked in the courtyard.

"I only harvested half of it, and the other half was cut and left to dry in the field. I see that the weather is sunny these days, so I am not in a hurry to harvest it." The widow rubbed her hands on the apron and poked her head out of the kitchen. , obviously don't understand why the big brother asked this.

"Oh, it's not good, it may rain heavily in our village soon."

"What?!" The widow hurriedly walked to the yard, but the sky was still clear and clear. Although there were a few dark clouds in the distance, it seemed very far away.

"It's not a good day, where is it going to rain?" The widow laughed, seeing that this man was obviously simple and simple, but she didn't expect that he was really a fool.

Xue Zhaoqing, who was on the side, heard it clearly. He had already calculated the rain when he saw the changes in the clouds in the sky a few days ago, but he had never planed food in the field, and he was completely unaware of the harm the rain would do to the crops.If it weren't for Niu Geng, he would most likely have delayed the family's harvest for a year because of his own selfish desires.

Xue Zhaoqing couldn't help feeling annoyed, seeing that the widow didn't believe what Niu Geng said, she hurried over and said: "Sister-in-law, you believe my brother, the rain will definitely come, you hurry up and take us to the fields to collect grain."

As soon as the widow heard that the young master said the same thing, she knew it was not a lie, and her face changed immediately. She pulled the only broken flatbed cart in the house, shouted for the two children to carry the chicken into the house, and immediately went to in the field.

"Don't go, I'm enough alone." Niu Geng saw that Xue Zhaoqing wanted to leave with airs, and hurriedly stopped him.

"It's not going to work. Let me go." Regardless of Niu Geng, he followed the widow's car and went to the field.

Fortunately, the widow's field is not far from home, but she may be a woman who works slowly, and the grain shops that have been half dried in the field are scattered around, not like capable farmers, densely stacked. , but also can see the sun evenly.

The earthy smell in the wind became more and more serious, and the thick black cloud gradually overwhelmed, the sky became dark, and a few villagers not far away were hurriedly running home.

Niu Geng picked up a piece of cut wheat by himself, tied it with the rope on the flatbed cart, and threw it on the cart. Xue Zhaoqing followed suit by picking up the wheat and tied it with the rope, but he never knew this The harvested grain is so thorny, and the wheat stalks left in the field after harvesting are so thorny.

Xue Zhaoqing and the widow couldn't collect much at one time, most of them were collected by Niu Geng. He alone bundled more ears of wheat than the two of them, and the small flatbed cart was quickly filled to the brim. Niu Geng supported the weight of the cart, and shouted: "Young master, sister-in-law, you push the cart back first, and I will store it here. When you come back, just put it in the cart."

"Good." The widow and Xue Zhaoqing pushed the cart back together. Niu Geng looked at the approaching black clouds and the confiscated grain in the field, spat on the ground, and took off his coat, revealing his strong body He stretched his muscles, rubbed his hands, bent down and continued to pick up a large pile of ears of wheat in front of him.

After going back and forth several times, most of the grain dried in the field had been harvested. Niu Geng put the last stack of wheat on the flatbed cart, pushed the heavy cart with wind on his feet, and started running, Xue Zhaoqing and the widow followed Behind, the thick cloud was approaching in front of them, and the howling wind blew across the backs of the three of them like knives, and a sense of dampness rolled up in the mud hit their faces.Xue Zhaoqing turned his head and saw that the cloud was not only covered with rain, but also seemed to be shining in the cloud, and a thunder and electric shock seemed inevitable.

After entering the yard, the widow opened the cave where the grain was stored. Niu Geng didn't care about 21, and stuffed it with bundles of grain, and the other two followed to help. The raindrops fell.

"Sister-in-law, hurry up and bring the wooden stake that supports the door!" After closing the broken door of the cave dwelling, Niu Geng found that the dilapidated door couldn't withstand such a strong wind. .

Before he had time to react, the rain poured down. Seeing that Xue Zhaoqing was still staying in the yard, Niu Geng became anxious and shouted, "Go inside quickly, don't get caught in the rain!"

"I'm not going! I want to help here!" The sound of the rain covered Xue Zhaoqing's voice, and Niu Geng didn't hear it well, but Xue Zhaoqing didn't want to leave, and became even more anxious, shouting: "Hurry up to the house! "

"You don't go in! I don't go in either!" Xue Zhaoqing raised his voice, no matter how anxious the burdock was, thinking that the door was so dilapidated, even if there were piles to support the door, it would be difficult to keep water from seeping out from the bottom of the door. There were some sandbags in the yard, so he ran over and dragged the sandbags over.

The sandbag itself was heavy, and it was raining again. Xue Zhaoqing couldn't lift it up, so he could only drag it on the ground. The widow took the stakes that supported the door and came over to support the door. Niu Geng hurriedly came over to help Xue Zhaoqing lift the sandbag.

The three blocked the door with great difficulty, and when they hurried back into the house, they were already soaked through.

Xue Zhaoqing winked at Niu Geng, two big men and a widow staying in the same room with their bodies wet is really insulting to gentlemen, although Niu Geng was stunned, he still had a sense of differences between men and women, so he said: "Sister-in-law , can the cave next to yours still live in?" He had already seen that there was another cave in the courtyard, but the door was locked.

"That's the cave dwelling where my parents-in-law lived before." The widow has lived in the country for most of her life, and she knows the power of gossip. As soon as Niu Geng said it, she knew what the two meant, and said hastily: "How can I let you The two of you are going to live there, you live here, and I will take the child to live in the next cave.”

"No, it's fine for us two big men to live here, and I have to trouble my eldest sister to burn the kang, it's very cold and humid today."

The widow couldn't handle the two of them, so she took the key and opened the door of the cave dwelling, and then hurriedly went to the kitchen to heat up the firewood, so that the kang in the cave dwelling could be warmer.

Although this cave dwelling is dilapidated, it is still relatively clean. There is a large kang at the entrance, and there are some dilapidated tables and chairs, pots, bowls and the like on one side.The widow asked her eldest son to bring some clean clothes, pillows and bedding, and boiled a large bucket of hot water to bring them over, as well as a clean towel.

Niu Geng was afraid that Master Xue Zhaoqing would not be used to living in it, so he took his drenched coat and wiped the whole kang clean, so that when the hot air from the kitchen was burned to the cave dwelling through the pipe, it happened to be able to dry it. Then spread the bedding and pillows on the kang.

No one lives in the cave all the year round, it is cold and cold, coupled with the torrential rain outside, after a lot of work, Ren Niugeng can't bear it no matter how healthy he is, he can't stop the cold all over his body, his teeth chatter, but the widow When the hot water was brought over, he still insisted on letting Xue Zhaoqing wipe it first.

"Look at your cold, your lips are blue! You are still here with me, if you tell you to wipe it, you can wipe it, and put on this clothes quickly after wiping!" Wring out the hot water and rub it on the burdock.

"Young...young master... how can I ask you to do this job of wiping my body?" Niu Geng had no choice but to take the towel and hastily wiped his body with hot water. At least it wasn't so cold anymore. Clothes, said to boil water for Xue Zhaoqing.

"Don't go out, it's raining so hard outside." Xue Zhaoqing tested the temperature in the bucket with water, and it wasn't very cold, so he took the towel and planned to wipe it himself.

"Master, how can I let you wipe your body with the water I used... I will burn another bucket for you."

"How long will it take to burn another barrel? Do you want to freeze me to death?" Xue Zhaoqing raised her phoenix eyes. This reckless man, let him rest and have to work, is he born to work?

"If you have nothing to do, just lie down on the kang and warm the quilt for me."

"Oh..." As always, Niu Geng had no resistance to Young Master Xue's words, and obediently lay on the bed, serving him as a human hot water bottle.

Xue Zhaoqing wiped his hair with a towel first, and when the cold on his head was not so severe, he took off his soaked gown and inner garment, exposed his upper body, and began to wipe his body with the towel.Niu Geng was lying on the kang next to him, he didn't know where to put his eyes, the whole cave was so small, no matter where his eyes looked, he could see Xue Zhaoqing's delicate flesh.

The towel dipped in hot water caressed Xue Zhaoqing's tender white shoulders, back, arms, and chest. A few crystal beads of water were scattered around the two small shoulder sockets under the young master's neck, and then he patted Xue Zhaoqing as if he couldn't bear the smoothness. Slide down little by little.Niu Geng couldn't help swallowing, the young master wrung out the towel a little, and wrapped it around his thin waist from behind.

That waist was hugged by burdock, and when he was riding a horse, he felt that he could wrap his arms around this waist at that time, and now he really saw it, even more so.The small waist like a water snake was twisted gently with the towel wrapped around it, and Niu Geng looked at it with fire in his eyes and parched mouth.

Xue Zhaoqing finished wiping his upper body, and was about to take off his underwear and wipe his legs, but the burdock on the bed couldn't lie down anymore, and when he saw Xue Zhaoqing was about to take off his pants, he yelled: "Young Master... Didn't the doctor say that your leg injury can't be done?" Do you touch water?"

Xue Zhaoqing thought so, but he took off his trousers and checked the wound. Fortunately, the gown was thick enough and his legs were not too wet. After changing into dry clothes, Xue Zhaoqing threw the wet clothes aside.

Niu Geng let out a sigh of relief, but why did he have a weird feeling that he didn't eat candy?
