Pastoral Daily Life

When Micro Garden was about to close, Lu Lingxi received a call from Yan Yue.This is already the third call Yan Yue made to Lu Lingxi.Yan Yue had nothing to do, but just told Lu Lingxi to be careful on the way home.As the new year is approaching, the law and order in Fengcheng has been a bit chaotic recently, and there have been a lot of thieves. Near the community where Lu Lingxi lives, three robberies occurred in just one week.

Lu Lingxi obediently listened to Yan Yue's instructions, and said, "Understood Brother Yan, I have Dahei and Xiaohei, it's fine."

Hearing his name, Dahei called out into the microphone in a low voice.Xiao Hei poked his head out of Lu Lingxi's pocket lazily, and spat out the letter. As for what to say, Lu Lingxi didn't know.

Yan Yue laughed across the phone.This time when he returned to Zhongjing, he left Xiao Hei by Lu Lingxi's side. Although Xiao Hei couldn't point to anything other than food, he could still come out to scare people at critical moments. "Go home early, so you don't have to guard the store if there is no one in the store." He reminded a few more words, and finally thought of something, "Don't give Xiao Hei sweets these days, his teeth are really about to fall out." Yan The more I said it, the more helpless I felt, as a snake who suffered from toothache after eating candy, Xiao Hei really couldn't go on like this.

Lu Lingxi gave a "hmm" and agreed with a suppressed smile.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Lingxi poked Xiao Hei who was biting his sleeve, and Xiao Hei slowly entangled Lu Lingxi's wrist, rubbing it affectionately.

Lu Lingxi smiled, knowing that Xiao Hei was acting like a baby on purpose after hearing what Brother Yan said.But Brother Yan is right, Xiao Hei has a tendency to have tooth decay now, if he continues to eat sweets, he may become the first snake known to lose its teeth due to eating sweets. "Being coquettish doesn't work." Lu Lingxi whispered, "From today on, Xiao Hei, you can only drink sugar-free milk."

Xiao Hei spat out the letter aggrievedly, but unfortunately its protest was ineffective.

After six o'clock, Lu Lingxi packed up and prepared to close the shop.Wang Shuxiu called him and asked him to go home directly instead of going to the small restaurant.Xiao Hong and Zhou Xiaoman are here today, and Wang Shuxiu is going home to cook. "What do you want to eat?" Wang Shuxiu asked on the phone.The small restaurant has a lot of ingredients, and Wang Shuxiu prepared what she wanted to eat in advance.

"Coke chicken legs." Lu Lingxi looked at Dahei and said.

Wang Shuxiu knew what was going on as soon as she heard it, "Okay, big black chicken legs are indispensable."

The big black ears pricked up, and his face was still calm.Lu Lingxi patted Dahei's head, put on his clothes and locked the door, and ran all the way back to the community.This point is when office workers get off work, and there are many people on the street.Although the sky was a bit dark, the street lights on both sides of the road were not as unsafe as Yan Yue said.Besides, there was Dahei by his side, Lu Lingxi felt very at ease.He always felt that the people around him still treated him as a child, such as Yan Yue, Wang Shuxiu, and even Dahei.

When we got home, Xiao Hong and Zhou Xiaoman had already arrived, and there was another Xiao Wanwan making noise, and the room was very lively.As soon as Lu Lingxi brought Dahei in, Xiao Wanwan rushed over.It's a little grievous.Since Xiao Hong came back, Xiao Wanwan started to eat vegetables again, and the double chin that Lu Lingxi fed him several times a day disappeared again.

"Our family Xiao Wanwan is very attached to Xiaoxi now, and we are about to change our name to Lu Wanwan." Xiao Hong laughed.

Knowing the reason, Lu Lingxi smiled guiltyly.He didn't dare to tell Uncle Xiao the truth about Xiao Wanwan's hair loss before. Of course, Xiao Hong didn't know that during the few days when Xiao Wanwan followed Lu Lingxi, he not only had meat every meal, but also had a supper at night. up.

"Xiaoxi go wash your hands." Wang Shuxiu poked her head out of the kitchen and shouted, "Are you hungry? There is a cake brought by your uncle on the table. If you are hungry, put some on it first."

Lu Lingxi agreed, and took off her coat to wash her hands.In the coat pocket, Xiao Hei poked his head out blankly, staring at the cake on the table without blinking, dripping down his saliva, wetting Lu Lingxi's clothes.When everyone was not paying attention, Xiao Hei swam towards the table against the corner of the wall.

"Come on, let's eat first, there are still a few dishes that will be ready soon."

As soon as Lu Lingxi finished washing her hands, Zhou Xiaoman brought out a pot of chicken legs from the kitchen and placed them in the center of the table.After a while, she and Wang Shuxiu almost finished the dishes.The dinner prepared by the sister-in-law was very rich.Wang Shuxiu's craftsmanship is good, and all the ingredients provided by Xiao Feng's vegetable greenhouse are used.

It has only been one month since Yongchun Vegetable Greenhouse opened, and it has already taken up a quarter of the sales in Fengcheng Vegetable Wholesale Market as a dark horse.Even though the supply price of Yongchun vegetables is a little bit more expensive than other vegetable greenhouses, they are still sold out as soon as they are delivered every day.Xiao Feng is preparing to cooperate with several large supermarkets in the city in the past few days to supply these supermarkets with vegetables for a long time and stably.The problem he encounters now is that the scale of the vegetable greenhouse is a bit small, and there are not many types of vegetables.

Talking about it at the dinner table, Xiao Feng wanted to persuade Xiao Hong to simply transfer the small coal mine in his hometown, and then settle down in Fengcheng, where the two brothers worked together.Xiao Feng didn't think it before, but now that he has his own home, he feels more and more that there are only a few relatives around him, and it's best to live together.Besides, Xiao Hong's coal mine is too exhausting, and there are many people who need to deal with it every day, and they have to take care of all aspects.I have to worry about the safety of the coal mine all the time, but if something happens, it is a big deal.

Xiao Feng said it sincerely, and Xiao Hong's heart moved, a little bit of that meaning. "I'll think about it again." He didn't agree straight away. After all, it was years of hard work, and it doesn't mean that you can give up just by giving up.But what Xiao Feng said is also right, there are only two brothers left in their old Xiao family, and it is not a problem to be separated all year round, it is better to be together if they can be together.

"However." Taking advantage of Wang Shuxiu's inattention, Xiao Hong pulled Xiao Feng and asked in a low voice: "If brother transfers the mine, what will happen to those people in the mine?" He spoke vaguely, but the two brothers knew him It refers to Lu Yishui.

Xiao Feng smiled nonchalantly, "Xiao Hua and I are both married, Xiao Xi is also my son now, if he dares to come back and make trouble, his legs will be broken. As for the others, forget it, it will be for Xiao Hua to accumulate virtue."

"Okay." Xiao Hong was quite satisfied, "If you are a man, you have to protect your wife and family. Our old Xiao family has no tradition of making your wife angry."

"What's the matter?" Zhou Xiaoman gave him a sharp look, "What are you brothers muttering about? Are you full?"

Xiao Hong turned to Zhou Xiaoman immediately, and said patiently: "I didn't say anything, and the food is almost the same. By the way, bring the cake and share it with each other. It won't taste good tomorrow." gone."

During the meal before, Xiao Feng placed the cake on the window sill, upon hearing this, he stood up and served it.As soon as he took it, he felt wrong, the weight was a bit too light.When Xiao Feng took a look around, Xiao Hei was wrapped in cream and was eating happily in the cake. The whole cake was just an empty shell on the outside, and the inside was basically hollowed out by Xiao Hei.

Xiao Feng silently grabbed Xiao Hei by the tail and pulled it out of the cake. Xiao He struggled hard with the cream on his head.

A group of people: "..."

Xiao Hong laughed loudly, "It's a cheap little snake, it also knows what a good thing is."

This cake is not cheap, it is said that it is pure vegetable cream, and the cake of more than ten inches cost Xiao Hongxiao 1000 yuan.

Lu Lingxi took Xiao Hei from Xiao Feng's hand with a headache, took it to the bathroom and washed it for a long time before washing off all the cream on her body, then opened Xiao Hei's mouth to look at it, and moved Xiao Hei's teeth. "Just eat it, if you have a toothache, I won't care about you." Lu Lingxi threatened, and was a little curious about where Xiao Hei ate all the food.Although the cake is not big, it is enough for 4 or 5 people.Xiao Hei dug the cake into an empty shell by himself, but he didn't see a bulging belly at all.

Xiao Hei hissed and spat out the letter, and swayed around Lu Lingxi fawningly.Lu Lingxi put on a serious face, "It won't work if you wag your tail like Dahei, you must tell Brother Yan about this."

Yan Yue has much more prestige in front of Xiao Hei than Lu Lingxi.As soon as Lu Lingxi finished speaking, Xiao Hei's body stiffened, and he quickly coiled up his tail, burying his whole head in it.

Lu Lingxi: "..."

Before going to bed at night, Yan Yue received a call from Lu Lingxi.On the phone, Lu Lingxi severely sued the disobedient Xiao Hei.Yan Yue listened to the story of Xiao Hei hiding on the window sill, hollowing out the cake and pretending to be dead, laughing lightly by himself.

"Wait until I go back and punish it." Yan Yue's handling was simple and rude.

After hearing this, Lu Lingxi spoke up for Xiao Hei again, "There is no need to punish him, he will know how serious it is when his tooth hurts."

Yan Yue guessed that Lu Lingxi would be soft-hearted, and there was a smile in his eyes when he heard the words, and he said softly: "Good boy! Let's not talk about Xiao Hei, Xiao Xi, do you miss Brother Yan?"

Lu Lingxi paused, and said honestly, "I think about it."

He was used to being with Yan Yue every day, and when Yan Yue left suddenly, Lu Lingxi felt that his side was half empty.Although there are Dahei and Xiaohei, as well as Wang Shuxiu and Xiao Feng, they are not Yan Yue and cannot replace Yan Yue's existence.

Yan Yue's heart softened suddenly.He walked to the window with his mobile phone in his hand. The red lanterns under the eaves had been lit, and the courtyard was full of light.Yan Yue imagined the person on the other end of the phone, holding Lu Lingxi in his arms through the void.He softened his tone and coaxed in a low voice: "Brother Yan misses you too, Brother Yan will go back in a few days."

Lu Lingxi hesitated for a few seconds, then whispered: "No rush, Brother Yan, you have something to do beforehand, so don't rush back."

It's not that he doesn't know anything. When he was in the Lu family, the Lu family was always the busiest during Chinese New Year.He remembers very clearly that from years ago to the new year, his grandfather would take them to worship their ancestors, pay New Year's greetings to his family, and attend banquets.Of course, apart from worshiping the ancestors, he does not need to come forward.But when he stayed in the ancestral house, he could see his cousins ​​hurrying around every day, without any leisurely atmosphere of Chinese New Year.He thought that the Yan family in Zhongjing was similar to the Lu family, and Brother Yan probably would have these things.

"Don't worry, Brother Yan is fine."

Hearing the worry in Lu Lingxi's words, Yan Yue comforted with a smile.The Yan family was sparsely populated, and he never acknowledged the existence of Yan Hai and Yin Ya. Except for the necessary visits from the first to third year of junior high school, there was really nothing going on afterwards.

"Oh." Lu Lingxi agreed, and he was very happy to see Yan Yue sooner.

Yan Yue smiled slightly, and glanced at the time. Although he was reluctant to hang up the phone, it was already Lu Lingxi's usual sleep time. Yan Yue resisted the urge to continue chatting, and said, "Xiaoxi should go to bed."

"Well, then I'm going to bed, Brother Yan, you go to bed early too."

"it is good."

Hearing the sound of hanging up the phone on the other side, Yan Yue put away the phone but didn't feel sleepy at all.After half a year, he experienced insomnia again.Tossing and turning unable to fall asleep, Yan Yue lit a cigarette and stood in front of the window.I haven't smoked for a long time. In Fengcheng, under the supervision of Lu Lingxi, he almost quit smoking.If the boy knew that he was smoking behind his back, he would have seriously told him about the dangers of cigarettes.Yan Yue thought of the boy's serious expression, smiled silently, and simply extinguished the cigarette in his hand.

There was wind blowing outside, whining.What Ye Kang said in the afternoon flashed through his mind. Yan Yue didn't care about the Lu family's illegitimate child. His attention was on his grandfather's wish for him to marry the Lu family.Yan Yue understood what Grandpa meant, and wanted to use the strength of the Lu family to consolidate his position as the heir.Not to mention that he didn't need to rely on any marriage to consolidate his position, but that with Xiaoxi around, he wouldn't marry any woman.Besides, the Lu family... Yan Yue sneered. Although the Lu family separated early and Lu Guangjing's family did not live in the Lu family's ancestral home, he did not believe that the Lu family did not know about Xiaoxi's situation. I am afraid that Mr. Lu has many grandchildren, one more and one less. It doesn't matter.

Yan Yue tapped lightly on the window sill, it was not a difficult problem for him to reject this marriage, but if he simply refused, the matter would be rather boring.Didn't Yin Ya keep jumping up and down trying to tie up a wealthy son-in-law?He thinks Lu Weian is pretty good.Imagining his father's headache after the marriage between the Yin and Lu families, Yan Yue curled his lips and had an idea in his mind.
