Ye Feiyang trotted down the mountain all the way, tirelessly, as if something was chasing him behind him, Qi Shu knew that he was sad, and followed him silently with his arms in his arms, he didn't quite understand where Ye Feiyang's stubbornness came from Come on, although tigers and leopards are troublesome to raise, they are not uncommon. As far as he knows, there are many families in Guangjing who raise them.

It's not surprising that Qi Shu would think so. He doesn't understand the greed of modern people. In order to obtain the treasures of tigers, they will do everything they can, and they will kill them all. If such two tigers appear in front of them, they will definitely drive them crazy, Ye Feiyang This is what he is afraid of. Compared with the dangerous mountains and forests, human greed is more terrifying. In this world, he has no relatives, no reason, no power, no power, and no ability to protect them, so he keeps them in the mountains.

Seeing that he was about to run to the bottom of the mountain, Qi Shu stopped Ye Feiyang, secretly marveling at when his physical strength became so good, and he took a rest for a while when he went down the mountain last time.Seeing the person in front of him panting, with red eye circles and red nose tip, Qi Shu felt a little distressed, took out a handkerchief to help him wipe the sweat from his forehead, and then said: "The next step is the foot of the mountain , take everything out."

After being reminded by Qi Shu, Ye Feiyang came back to his senses. Although his mood was still depressed, life still had to go on. He and Qi Shu walked to the back of the big tree on the side of the road, and then entered the space and pulled him up the mountain. The trolley was pulled out, Ye Feiyang and Qi Shu had very little luggage, and the clothes combined couldn’t even fit into a package, but there were a lot of auspicious things, and basically they didn’t take much of the other things, those wild nuts were all in the space, Mushrooms and bamboo shoots are eaten up during the Chinese New Year, and Ye Feiyang is not in the mood to toss about after the new year. The rest of the meat is left to the tigers. In fact, there are not many pots and pans on the mountain. It is enough to take out the bowl, and as for the cotton wool, it has long been blackened and used as waste products. The only thing brought down the mountain is the small stone mill and the animal furs that have been peeled off.The remaining space on the cart was used to put the hare cages. After these two or three months, the hares have multiplied a lot, but it is impossible to take all of them down the mountain. Ye Feiyang and Qi Shu picked some big-bellied ones. The one that was going to have cubs was taken out, and he was going to fish in troubled waters and then "smuggle" the other hares out of the space.

After a while, the two turned out from behind the tree, Qi Shu pushed the cart full of them, Ye Feiyang hugged Jixiang, and the white fox seemed to be tired from walking, and jumped onto the cart lightly, scaring the hares to shiver .

Jixiang looked at Ye Feiyang as if he was not very happy, blinked his eyes, waved his little paws and moved up to kiss Ye Feiyang's saliva on the face.Ye Feiyang wiped his face, looked at the naughty little guy helplessly, and felt a little better, but in the blink of an eye, he thought of the tiger cubs acting coquettishly and cutely, and his heart sank again.

As soon as the two of them walked up the road leading to the village at the foot of the mountain, they saw a few people working in the slightly desolate fields not far away, and they saw that they had lost their tools and trotted over: "Qi Shu, Ye Brothers, you can come down the mountain."

"My mother-in-law has been talking about it for a long time, saying that the newly made quilt is about to be bitten by mice."

"No, the house has been fixed for you a long time ago, you go slowly, I will go to the village and tell Master Lizheng first."

……

The simplicity of the villagers moved Ye Feiyang very much. He greeted and thanked them seriously one by one with auspiciousness.Those villagers were obviously not used to Ye Feiyang's gentle and polite appearance, they rubbed the back of their heads and smiled honestly, feeling a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Qi Shu changed the subject with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work. After two days, when we settle down, please invite everyone to dinner."

"It's hard work, but eating is a must! Haha."

"Hey, you raised this white fox? That's right, why didn't you see those two tiger cubs?"

Being mentioned in this way, Qi Shu immediately looked at Ye Feiyang, and sure enough, he saw his sad face, and other people naturally noticed it, and asked quickly.Qi Shu said: "They ran out in the morning and haven't come back yet, so we came down first."

When the villagers heard it, they only thought that Ye Feiyang was worried about the safety of the tiger cubs, and immediately persuaded: "So that's the case, brother Ye, don't worry too much, there is only one hunter in Qishu within a hundred miles, and they will be fine on the mountain of."

Hearing what they said, Ye Feiyang felt even more uncomfortable, and began to worry about the safety of the tigers. Although there was no threat from the hunters, there were bears and wolves in the mountains!What if you run into it!They don't have much experience!

Seeing Ye Feiyang's face change, the man realized that he had said the wrong thing, and was a little embarrassed, Qi Shu patted him on the shoulder: "That tiger cub was raised by Feiyang, and he is usually pampered like a cat, so he loves to worry about it." ,It's fine."

The man secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and then returned to the house: "There are fire dragons on the ground floor of the house, so don't worry about Jixiang freezing. I originally said that I would help you make pig pens and chicken pens, but Mr. Lizheng said that we will wait until the next day." Let’s talk about it when you come, anyway, there’s nothing to do these days, so I’ll help you fix it later.”

"it is good."

While talking, the village has already arrived. The place Ye Feiyang chose before is in the east. From a distance, you can see a newly built house next to the old doctor's small courtyard. It has only one floor, and the roof is triangular. There are layers of gray tiles, and the wall is a beautiful blue color. Ye Feiyang was a little surprised. He thought it would be a mud house or a stone house, but he didn't expect it to be a brick house.

Pushing open the wooden door and entering, the empty front yard was cleaned very clean. The new house looked like it had an area of ​​three rooms. Ye Feiyang looked at it, and gradually felt a little joy in his heart. He walked into the house with auspiciousness, and the house was only open. There is a door connected to the main room. There is a room on the left and right of the main room, which is as big as the main room. There is also a door on the right side of the main room. From there, you can go out to the backyard. The one on the left is shorter than the main room. There is a small room with a chimney on the top, which must be the kitchen, and a small shed was built on the right side. Ye Feiyang looked with his head, and it turned out to be a toilet, and the rest of the room was also empty.

Ye Feiyang walked around the house with Jixiang in his arms, a smile gradually appeared on his face, this is his and Qi Shu's house!He finally has his own home in this world!Chinese people have an inexplicable obsession with home in their bones. No matter how well the wanderers live outside, they still miss the old house in their hometown.Ji Xiang seemed very happy in Ye Feiyang's arms, his little head kept turning back and forth, looking at the new house, waving his fat little arms, as if he wanted to reach out and feel around.Seeing the happy appearance of the senior and junior, Qi Shu also smiled softly.

After a while, Lord Lizheng came over with a group of people, and his voice was heard from afar: "Qi Shu, I asked Carpenter Wang to make some tables and chairs for you, let's see if it works."

Qi Shu and Ye Feiyang rushed out to greet him: "Brother Wang's craftsmanship can't be perfect? ​​It's really hard for everyone."

"How hard is this?"

A group of people rushed in, and it didn't take long for the empty room to be filled. Carpenter Wang not only made tables and chairs, but also made some cabinets and wooden boxes, not even a wooden shelf for the washbasin. I forgot, and I even made a small bed for Jixiang, and some small wooden gadgets. Not long after it was set up, some half-grown children jumped in outside the door, and then the loud voices of the aunts rang out.Li Zhengyi clapped his hands: "I asked them to come over and help you clean up the house, and bring the cotton wool here by the way."

Qi Shu waved his hands again and again: "What's wrong with this! The house has already been cleaned up very cleanly, so Feiyang and I can do the rest."

"What can you two big men do with a little baby in your arms? We women are the fastest to do this kind of thing!" The outspoken Aunt Liu waved her hand, and the female soldiers behind her held a rag in their hands as if by magic Men were sent to carry water.

Ye Feiyang was a little embarrassed, but there was auspiciousness in his hand, and there was a white fox squatting on his shoulder. There were so many people in the room just now, and those fearless boys even chased after it, scaring it to jump straight to Ye Feiyang. On Feiyang's shoulders, the little paws hugged the tail, and his body was still trembling. He was touched by Ye Feiyang for a while before he calmed down.

Li Zheng pulled Qi Shu to prevent him from leaving: "Let them do this, I have other things to tell you, I was thinking about digging another well for you, but I don't know where you want to dig, so It didn’t move, and there are also problems with pig pens and chicken pens. I just saw that you brought a lot of hares down. Rabbits are not easy to raise. Think about how to divide the yard, and I will find someone to help you later.”

"Okay. Feiyang and I will figure it out tonight to see how we divide it. After two days, we'll invite everyone to dinner." After Qi Shu finished speaking, seeing no one else around, he took some more from his bosom. Broken silver, pressed it in Lizheng's hand and said: "Master Lizheng, I didn't expect that you would give me such a good job, and the money you gave is not much, I'm afraid it's not enough, you put it away first, and I'll give it later if it's not enough." you."

Li Zheng straightened his face, and threw the money into Qi Shu's hand: "What are you talking about! This house only cost a little money for bricks and tiles, and the rest were volunteered by the villagers. Can’t you get paid? The beds of cotton batting that you sacked for you were saved for you during the autumn harvest last year. Who do you ask me to pay for? As for Carpenter Wang, anyway, if I give you money, he doesn’t want it. You have to give it to yourself. Give it to him!" After finishing speaking, he took some broken silver from his pocket and threw them into Qi Shu's hands, "These are leftovers, take them back quickly!"

Ye Feiyang was walking around with auspiciousness in his arms, when he heard Li Zheng's words, he was very moved, and he raised the image of these simple and kind folks a lot.No wonder the ancients often said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and it is true.How can it be more modern than that, in high-rise buildings, people who die next door have to stink before being discovered, not to mention those who have lived for many years but don't know the name and appearance of the neighbors.

Qi Shu put away the money obediently, smiled honestly, Lizheng's face softened, and said: "Qi Shu, this is not suitable for me to say, but you have no elders, so I licked my face and said At first you said that you planned to be a hunter all the time, so I couldn't say anything. Now that you have settled down, you should think about it for the rest of your life. After all, it is inconvenient for you two big men to bring a child, and the family really needs one. Woman, I don't know much about Feiyang, but Qi Shu, you and I know that many good girls in the village are looking at you, you should think about it."

Ye Feiyang was stunned, he never expected that on the first day down the mountain, someone would come to be a matchmaker, and it was Li Zheng!Anxiety never before filled my heart, yes, there is only their family on the mountain, it doesn't matter what I think, but now among the crowd, "homosexuality" is hard to be accepted after all, right?While thinking wildly, I heard Qi Shu's deep voice: "I know what you mean, but I can only accept it. Actually, Feiyang is not my distant nephew. I picked him and Jixiang back from the mountains. He is very nice. We are already together, so I have to live up to your kindness." Ye Feiyang felt relieved when he heard this, but he was a little sullen, how could Qi Shu just say that!What if Li Zheng looked down upon him?At the same time, there was a hint of sweetness, Qi Shu was sincere to him, and never thought of hiding their relationship.

Li Zheng was also taken aback for a moment, but he soon came back to his senses: "If you know their details, it would be nice to be together. I looked at that child Feiyang, he is very nice, but he is fair and clean, gentle and polite. It’s not like coming out of ordinary people.”

Qi Shu nodded and said: "He suffered a disaster in his hometown, his parents died, he came to seek refuge with his distant relatives, but accidentally lost his way in the mountains, his father is a gentleman, so he is polite."

Li Zheng said with emotion: "No wonder I think he has a good temper, is hardworking and capable, but he is not very good at farm work. It turns out that is the case, but he is a poor boy."

"Yes, his relative is only a distant relative. He hasn't met him yet. Even if he finds it, he will be dependent on others. Why not come with me."

Li Zheng nodded: "That's right, Qi Shu, you have a good temper, the two of you are just right together."

Qi Shu smiled and said, "I also think it's very suitable."

Ye Feiyang blushed when he heard this, turned around and was about to enter the room, but was stopped by Qi Shu, Lizheng realized that Ye Feiyang was behind him, but he didn't feel embarrassed, and looked at him with a smile, Ye Feiyang was thin-skinned, Not long after, his face was flushed, Qi Shu opened his mouth to help him: "Don't look at Fei Yang like that, he has a thin skin."

Li Zheng smiled and turned to look at Qi Shu: "Since we have decided to be together, let's find a time to hold the banquet, so that the villagers will be happy for you."

"Well, wait a while."

"Well, no rush, no hurry."

Ye Feiyang was dumbfounded when he heard that, what about a banquet?It's not a wedding reception!Could it be that men and men can also hold banquets?

After Li Zheng finished speaking, he walked towards the front yard, leaving the two of them face to face. Ye Feiyang asked the question in his heart with a blushing face. Masculinity is prevalent, and there are not a few people who get married, there are also two in this village, yes, I will show you someday."

Only then did Ye Feiyang feel relieved, noticing the warm touch on his ear, he glared at Qi Shu immediately, and stretched out his hand to push the finger away.Ji Xiang, who was ignored from the beginning to the end, turned his head angrily, spit bubbles, and reached out to grab the white fox's tail.

Soon everyone came back with water, and the women wiped the tables, stools and stools clean, the kang was also tidied up, covered with cotton wool, even bedding, and the auspicious small bed was also covered with thick The thicker layer was busy until noon, Ye Feiyang left them to eat, but saw them slipping away quickly, and they disappeared after a while, and they were still knocking on their cigarettes: "Don't rush to eat, you guys I'm tired too, take a good rest, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

Seeing everyone off, Qi Shu closed the door, and when he walked to the backyard, he heard Ye Feiyang's voice, walked over quickly, and saw two big bowls of rice on the counter in the kitchen, with vegetables and meat piled high, Ye Feiyang He said with emotion: "They are so nice!"

Qi Shu smiled and said, "That's natural."

The meal hadn't cooled down yet, and the two of them planned to make do with it. Ye Feiyang was holding the bowl, and as soon as he picked up the meat, he suddenly lost his appetite when he thought of the two tiger cubs, and said in a low voice, "I wonder if they ate? "

Qi Shu sighed, and persuaded: "You left so much meat, at least they won't be hungry today, and I'll go up the mountain tomorrow to have a look."

Ye Feiyang nodded quickly: "Look at the best, they are used to being fed by me, I'm afraid they just wait for me to feed, but they don't know how to eat by themselves."
