Ambergris Shen: There is a problem with my dragon queen

The dark clouds penetrated the entire sky like thick ink, and after the flying sand and stones passed, the torrential rain poured down.

A young beggar in ragged clothes braved the rain and staggered into the eaves of a farmhouse to hide from the rain.When he appeared in this small mountain village, he had been wandering for an unknown amount of time. He was so hungry that his chest was stuck to his back, and his body was full of abscesses, which gave off a foul smell.

He didn't remember where he came from, nor where he was going, and he didn't know his name. Before he came to this house, this village seemed to be richer than other places, and many people looked at it from a distance. When he came to him, he closed the door, and some kind-hearted people gave him some leftover food from home.

The last meal was pumpkin and wild vegetable soup yesterday afternoon. I wasn't very hungry. Not long after I ate it, I became dizzy again.

No family dared to take him in. His condition was so serious that he had to find a doctor.But these days, it's too late for everyone to protect themselves. If one member of the family falls ill, the whole family will be dragged down to sell all the land. How can it be possible to spend money to save a stranger whose origin is unknown.

The young beggar was feverish and huddled against the corner of the wall. He could only hope that the family would not drive him away until he escaped the heavy rain.He was seriously ill, and if he was exposed to rain again, his life would probably be lost.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and even though he was hiding in the eaves of the porch, the rain kept floating on his face.He had no choice but to move back a little.Unexpectedly, there was a door panel behind him, and when he leaned against it, the door made a slight sound.

There were footsteps coming from inside the door, as if someone in the house was about to open the door.

The young beggar was tense and struggled to get up, at least to hide until the master opened the door, but he was unable to get up because of his physical illness, and even almost fell into the room when the door was opened.

The people inside helped him up first, but they didn't push him out of the door because of the stench on his body, but said softly, "Brother, do you want to come in to take shelter from the rain and have a drink of hot soup?"

He drank a lot of hot soup these days, and his stomach was full of clear soup with little water, and he had no interest in hot soup, but he knew very well in his heart that these are the only things that a peasant family can provide to a beggar , the most important thing is to be able to shelter from the rain, if it rains again, I'm afraid he won't be able to wake up again.

He nodded gratefully to his master.

The master helped him into the house and sat down, then turned around and closed the door to block the wind and rain outside.

The owner was not in a hurry to go to the kitchen to get food, and first found a clean sweat towel to wipe the rain off his body.

He took the sweat towel and found that it was almost new, so he hesitated.At this moment, his face was covered with mud, and if he wiped it off, he might ruin the veil.

But the master thought that he was unable to move, so he simply took the handkerchief and wiped away the stains for him.

The young beggar was very embarrassed at first, but seeing his focused and gentle expression, although his appearance was not impressive, he had a unique introverted calmness, which made people feel at ease at first sight.

"Isn't this a very handsome boy, why did he become like this?" He asked gently.

"I...I can't remember anything." He bowed his head in shame.

The other party looked at him carefully, as if to judge whether he was lying or not.After a while, he said, "Are you hungry? Have something to eat first. My surname is Zhang, Zhang Mingyang. You can call me Big Brother Zhang."

He breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Thank you, Brother Zhang."

The serious illness made him weak, and he fell asleep after waiting for a while.

After an unknown amount of time, he felt his lips moist and smelled a strong fragrance at the end of his nose. He opened his eyes tiredly and found himself lying on a bed, and Zhang Mingyang was feeding him a bowl of mixed mushroom chicken congee he.

The porridge was thick and soft, but the grains were distinct. The aroma of shredded chicken and mixed mushrooms almost made people swallow their tongues.He took Zhang Mingyang's hand and wolfed down a large bowl, only to realize that he was not very refined, so he smiled embarrassedly: "Sorry, I'm a little hungry."

This is the taste of chicken, he will never admit it wrong.Chickens are an extremely important property of a farm family, and they would not be slaughtered easily. Zhang Mingyang actually killed the chickens used to lay eggs for him.He didn't know what it was like. After wandering for so many days, he finally ate a good meal, but it was too good. He didn't know when he would be able to repay this favor.

Zhang Mingyang's tone was very natural: "It's okay, there's still some in the pot, eat as much as you can, it's good for your illness. I called the doctor to show you, and the doctor said, you are full of trauma, He is young and strong, and he will be fine after a month or two of recuperation."

How could he have the money for a month of nursing care.He smiled wryly in his heart, and found that the other party must have invited a doctor, the wounds on his body were scrubbed clean, a layer of medicinal powder was applied, and even the clothes on his body were changed from head to toe.

"Brother Zhang's life-saving grace, my younger brother will never forget it. In the next life, I will be a grass knot..."

"It's very unnecessary. If you don't mind, let's stay here for a while."

"Thank you, Brother Zhang. After I recover from my injury, I will work for him, and I can sign a contract of sale." His background is unknown, but Zhang Mingyang trusted him so much that he hired a doctor for him. I don't know how much money he spent.It is common for him to reciprocate and sell himself to him.Although he doesn't know how to work in the fields, it's not that he can't bear hardships, and it's okay to follow along.

Hearing what he said, Zhang Mingyang looked a little surprised, and then smiled: "No need. I live alone, and I only need someone to talk to. It's good that my little brother can stay with me."

What he said was very upright, but this young man was extremely intelligent, coupled with the fact that he was living in a foreign country, he had to think about what other people said a few times, "living alone" and "stay with me" sounded a little bit strange.Could it be that this person loves masculinity?

Zhang Mingyang didn't realize that there was something wrong with his speech at first, but when he came into contact with his meaningful eyes, he couldn't help avoiding his eyes, only then did he realize that his words were ambiguous.But normal people don't want to be crooked, right?Is this little brother as good as Long Yang?

Zhang Mingyang was afraid that the picture would get darker, so he hurriedly said: "I made the medicine and drank it after dinner, now it's just the time, so I'll bring it to you."

Seeing that Zhang Mingyang's ears were red, he couldn't help showing a little smile. When Zhang Mingyang brought the medicine, he just put the medicine on the small coffee table next to him and refused to feed him.

He stretched out his hand with difficulty, as if trying to reach the bowl of medicine, but he couldn't reach it anyway.

After all, Zhang Mingyang still couldn't see it, so he quickly picked up the medicine bowl and fed him the medicine with a spoon.

The medicine was extremely bitter, but he didn't want to speed up the process, so he pretended to swallow it with difficulty.

Sure enough, Zhang Mingyang showed a worried look.

Finally finished drinking the medicine, he pursed his lips, and said, "Brother Zhang and I were wearing green shirts when we met, and we will be called Aqing from now on. I don't have a surname, so I can take Brother Zhang's one. I seem to remember that I used to be in It also ranks second in the family.”

Zhang Erlang Ah Qing?The name doesn't quite make it to the table.But he was willing to be his brother. It seems that he didn't repel him very much. Zhang Mingyang couldn't help but secretly rejoiced. He secretly felt that his idea was too dangerous. You have to change it back."

Ah Qing nodded without hesitation, and asked: "Brother Zhang's name, is it famous all over the world?"

"no……"

"The big brother wrote it for me?" Ah Qing stretched out his palm.

Zhang Mingyang hesitated, and wrote his name on the palm of his hand with his fingers.

Still literate.Ah Qing admired him more and more. After watching him finish writing stroke by stroke, she praised: "This name is really beautiful."

Can the name still be good-looking?Zhang Mingyang was a little speechless, the other party's attitude was more glamorous than his own, so he only regarded the other party's sincere praise, and said a vaguely modest sentence, while cleaning up the dishes, he asked: "Is the medicine too bitter just now?" , would you like to make a bowl of honey water?"

Ah Qing smiled wryly, "I don't dare to drink any more water, but I want to go to the toilet."

He got up slowly and with difficulty, Zhang Mingyang was the first to support him.

The two of them touched skin to skin, and each could feel the other's stiffness for a moment.

Zhang Mingyang did not dare to let go, and hurriedly said: "The toilet is a bit far away, let me help you go."

"Thank you, brother." Ah Qing said gratefully.

When the other party saw that he was covered with abscesses and smelled terrible, and maybe the other party had changed and washed him by himself, Ah Qing would feel embarrassed at first, but now it has become very natural.He is a person with a clear mind. Since the worst side has been seen, and the other party doesn't dislike him, then everything else is a better side.

Because Ah Qing was very inconvenient to move, Zhang Mingyang almost shifted his whole body weight onto himself, it would be quicker to hug the whole person over.Both of them were so tired that they were sweating in the end.

Seeing the faint blush on Zhang Mingyang's face, even a little afraid to face himself, Ah Qing couldn't help but feel infinite joy. He thought that Zhang Mingyang was sent by heaven to save him. But he is a bad star, and he will lose his money as soon as he comes.

Looking at it now, Zhang Mingyang didn't seem to hate him either.

"Thank you for your hard work, brother, I don't know how to thank you." He said as much as possible to calm down his excitement.

Zhang Mingyang was bowing his head to tie the belt for him, and said, "What's the hard work, brother is also very happy to take care of you."

Ah Qing thought he was speaking politely, and didn't care.

This house is not unusual, it is built with earth, there are two or three acres of vegetables planted in front of the house, dry firewood is neatly piled up behind the house, there are only four or five chickens in the chicken coop next to the pigsty, and there are only ducks. There are quite a lot, and there are a group of them.

Ah Qing still understands a little bit. There are more ducks. That’s because the ducks go out to forage every morning and come back by themselves in the evening. They only need to feed a small amount of extra food. If the chickens want it to lay eggs, they must be fed some food. Yes, the eggs laid may not be able to subsidize the food for the chickens, so most of the farms raise chickens for a change of taste, or to increase nutrition for pregnant women, the elderly and children, and they will not raise more. to sell.

There were only four or five chickens in total, and one was killed for the sake of Ah Qing.Although he just ate some shredded chicken now, he felt guilty just thinking about it.

In the future, I will work hard to help my elder brother and earn money.

He was weak, and when he got back to bed, he fell asleep again.

When he woke up again, it was night.He was lying on the bed, but Zhang Mingyang was lying on a bench and fell asleep.

Ah Qing glanced out the window, it was pitch black within a radius of ten miles, and only their house was lit with oil lamps.

Seeing that he woke up, Zhang Mingyang gave him water to drink. He only thought that he had missed his meal, so he must have no dinner, but Zhang Mingyang went to the kitchen and brought out a big bowl of stewed chicken. There is also a plate of fried vegetables with garlic and a large bowl of white rice.Codonopsis ginseng, red dates, and wolfberry are put in the chicken. The soup is clear and bright, and you can tell that it is very nourishing.

Now it is after autumn, and the rice has just been harvested, but how can this way of eating last until next year when it will be green and yellow?Zhang Mingyang was a bachelor in the past, maybe he didn't worry about it, but now that there are more of him, he has to think about the future.

Ah Qing's body has recovered a bit, and she can barely eat by herself.Holding the chopsticks, he felt very heavy. Zhang Mingyang said, "Can't you eat? What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you tomorrow."

"No, it looks delicious!" Ah Qing was new here, so she didn't want to ask about the family's financial situation. Seeing that Zhang Mingyang seemed to have enough money, she could go out to buy other food, so she didn't ask any more questions, and ate with her head down.

Because Ah Qing hadn't had a good meal for a long time, Zhang Mingyang forbade him to eat more. Seeing that he ate two chicken legs and one wing, he told him to stop.

"I want to kill another one after eating it for two days, don't eat it all at once."

Ah Qing was a little embarrassed, and put down her chopsticks.During these days of his wanderings, he really didn't eat a single delicious meal.

"I'll finish the chicken at home..."

"We'll go buy it after we finish eating. You're a sick person. It doesn't matter if you eat more. The most important thing now is to take good care of your body."

"But……"

"Don't worry, our family is not short of money."

With Zhang Mingyang's words, Ah Qing felt relieved, and said, "Brother, the stool is uncomfortable, you can sleep on the bed."

"This bed is not big, you can sleep alone."

"Don't you think of me as a brother?"

Zhang Mingyang hesitated for a moment, but finally heeded his words and fell asleep next to Ah Qing.

Two full-blooded men were lying on the same bed, but Ah Qing felt that this kind of situation was very natural. She wanted to do something, but her body was very weak. She finally turned around and saw Zhang Mingyang breathing. Slowly and long, he was actually asleep.

Ah Qing was tossing and turning.Although this man was ordinary in appearance, he could be attracted to him mysteriously. He always felt that his speech and behavior always had some unusual charm.It seemed that the dark bowl he fed him was not medicine, but ecstasy soup.

He managed to fall asleep drowsily, and when he woke up, Zhang Mingyang had already been up for a long time, not only had he fed the chickens, chased the ducks out, but he had also filled the well outside with water.When Ah Qing woke up, Zhang Mingyang had already boiled hot water to wash his face.

Ah Qing felt a little embarrassed, so she didn't ask him to serve her, and washed her face by herself.

"Someone slaughtered a pig in the village next door. I'll go and weigh a few catties of meat. I've eaten it. The food is heated in a pot. I'll bring it out for you."

Zhang Mingyang put the breakfast beside his bed, packed up his things and went out.

Breakfast is rice porridge, and the side dishes are scallion fried eggs, cold cucumbers, boiled asparagus, and a salted duck egg that has been cut in half and is oily and ruddy.Fat is more expensive than eggs. It is a luxury for a sick person in an ordinary family to eat an extra boiled egg every meal, let alone fried eggs.Ah Qing couldn't tell whether it was a bachelor who couldn't live a life, or Zhang Mingyang was originally a wealthy family and had accumulated a lot of wealth.

Ah Qing fell asleep and returned to the cage to wake up, but Zhang Mingyang hadn't come back yet.

He was a little lost, and got up and got out of bed with difficulty. When he looked around in a daze, he saw a bamboo stick not far away, the length and thickness of which could be used as a crutch.

The bamboo stick hadn't appeared last night.

Although the bamboo stick will not be able to bear the support for a long time, and the bottom will crack, but at that time, most of his illnesses have been cured.

He went out with a bamboo stick, and found that there were several chairs of different heights under the eaves outside, which were suitable for him to sit in various postures.

It rained heavily yesterday, and it still hasn't cleared up in the afternoon.It can be seen that Zhang Mingyang was the doctor who invited him in the rain.

Ah Qing looked at the neat vegetables in the field. After the rain, it was as green as jade, and there was not a single weed. It was very gratifying to see.He can vaguely imagine how serious the vegetable growers are, and they are full of passion and love for life.His heart also became warm.

Maybe it was because the neighboring village was a little far away, Zhang Mingyang didn't come home until after noon, and he walked home excitedly with a few catties of meat and a piece of pork ribs in his hand.

He glanced casually, and saw Ah Qing lazily basking in the sun on the chair outside the door, wearing his gray cloth clothes, but his handsome and coquettish could not be concealed from his loose long hair, from his white skin. fingertips, revealing from his languid posture.

I can't tell at all that this is the dirty and smelly beggar from yesterday.

Zhang Mingyang's footsteps stopped.

The villagers living nearby had seen him come back and greeted him from a distance: "Guan Zhang, are you back from the market?"

Zhang Mingyang agreed: "There are guests at home, let's do some shopping. Uncle Min, come to have a drink at home tonight?"

The man said, "No need, we still have food at home."

Ah Qing was originally lying on the recliner, listening to their questions and answers, she opened her eyes.

This village is too big and very empty. There are only a few farmhouses scattered far and near. It would be tiring to approach every time you talk, so the people in the village are all a little loud.

Zhang Mingyang walked up to Ah Qing and asked, "Are you hungry? I don't have time to cook other dishes, so I'll make noodles with pea sauce."

Ah Qing just woke up, she shook her head in a daze, indicating that she was not very hungry, and looked at the meat in Zhang Mingyang's hand: "The ribs are so expensive, why do you buy so many?"

Zhang Mingyang couldn't help smiling.He guessed that Ah Qing should have been born in a wealthy family, but later his family suffered hardships and fell into poverty, so he was both noble and sometimes sensible enough to make people feel distressed.

"Unlike in the city, ribs in the village are actually cheaper than meat, because the bones are not edible, and the villagers think it's not worth it. What about you? Would you rather eat meat or ribs?"

Ah Qing swallowed her saliva.He remembered the sweet taste of the ribs, and of course, the full taste of the meat was equally alluring. "But you can't buy so many, it's too expensive."

"Don't worry about the money. The whole farm is mine. You can eat as much as you want." Zhang Mingyang didn't want to mention it at first, for fear that it would irritate Ah Qing, who was in a poor family. To save money, he had to mention it, and said, "I don't know when the next pig slaughter will be, so it's not too much weighing. You haven't recovered yet, take two ribs and marinate them with ginger wine. We will stew yams tonight." Eat it, and marinate the other part with sugar and soy sauce, and hang it in the well. After two days, when your health is better, we will fry it in a frying pan and eat it.”

"Okay." Ah Qing couldn't help licking his lips when he thought of the crispy taste of fried pork ribs.The spareribs are wrapped in puff pastry, fried golden and brilliant, very crunchy, you can eat it while it is hot, let it soften for a while, you can make sweet and sour, braised in soy sauce, whatever.So many ribs are enough for an ordinary family to live a fat year, but they are just their usual meals.

He was a little confused, and asked again: "Since the whole farm belongs to Big Brother, why does Big Brother grow vegetables himself?"

How much land is this piece worth?How many acres?Or a few thousand acres?Ah Qing didn't count, seeing that Zhang Mingyang was wearing shorts, rolled up trousers, and wearing straw sandals. He was no different from ordinary peasant children. He even went to the field himself to pick up manure and water...

How does the owner of an ordinary farm usually live?Most of them build a big house, raise a group of beautiful wives and maidservants, and take a group of house slaves with them when they go out.In such a comparison, Zhang Mingyang's behavior is simply incomprehensible.

No wonder the uncle called Zhang Mingyang "Guan Zhang". He thought he heard it wrong.

"Growing vegetables is very interesting. Watching these vegetables grow up makes me feel good and I can still eat them."

He is kind and generous, and others are vying to rent his land to plant.The annual rent is enough for him to start a family and start a business, but he only likes living in a small house.Although there was his mansion in the city, he hardly ever went there.

It turns out that Zhang Mingyang grows vegetables just like he grows flowers for appreciation, and he raises chickens and ducks just for fun, not pointing at them laying eggs and selling them for money...

Ah Qing nodded with a half-knowledge, but still couldn't agree with his hobby.However, if he didn't have this habit, they probably wouldn't have had the chance to know each other.If you push open the door of an ordinary house by yourself, you may be kicked out, you may hide from the rain, and you will be thrown out in the end.

Zhang Mingyang didn't know that he was in a complicated mood, so he went into the kitchen to cook noodles.The peas in the miscellaneous noodles have been stewed long ago, so he only needs to cook the miscellaneous sauce and noodles.The miscellaneous sauce is sauce-colored minced meat, and when it is paired with green coriander, it smells very fragrant.

Knowing that Zhang Mingyang has a huge family business, Ah Qing no longer has any psychological pressure. At first, he thought of helping Zhang Mingyang carry water and weeds, and do some farm work within his ability, but according to Zhang Mingyang, what would he like best? Don't do anything, so as not to trample on his beloved dishes.

Ah Qing began to live a life like Chinese New Year every day.Their expenses are only a drop in the bucket compared to Zhang Mingyang's huge family business.Sometimes Zhang Mingyang would get some wild ginseng and blood swallow to cook porridge for Ah Qing, and Ah Qing felt a little numb after eating.

When Ah Qing came to this village, it was already late autumn, and it was not long before the twelfth lunar month.

Zhang Mingyang bought a few boxes of clothes for Ah Qing early on, one box of spring and autumn clothes, and the other boxes were winter clothes.Except for the big wool clothes, they are basically cyan and blue. Wearing them together makes him look more fair-skinned and handsome.

Ah Qing has always been given by Zhang Mingyang. He eats and wears whatever he wants. He never asks for it himself. Zhang Mingyang's thoughtfulness completely makes him unable to think of any other requests.

He will be raised for more than two months, the scars on his body have all scabbed and fallen off, and most of his body has recovered. Wearing these clothes, he looks like a prince.Zhang Mingyang stood beside him like a handyman.

He asked Zhang Mingyang to find a tailor to make two good clothes for him to wear. Zhang Mingyang did it, but said that it was not easy to go to the field, and the clothes he wore most often were still the same set of odd jobs.

Ah Qing just felt that standing with him was wrong no matter how you look at it, so she picked up a few plain green shirts to wear.

Not long after eating Laba porridge, it's time to kill the New Year's pig.

Almost every household here raises pigs and kills one throughout the year. Small households sell half of the pigs and eat half for themselves.The half that was eaten could not be put away, half was made into sausages and dried in the sun, and the other half was salted heavily, made into bacon, fried with vegetables, cut and eaten, enough to last half a year.The rich family cooks pig dishes first, and the whole family eats fresh ones, and the rest are cured.

Zhang Mingyang, however, was very forthright. He killed a pig and asked all the tenant farmers in Zhuangzi to eat it.

He has a lot of tenant farmers, and one pig is barely enough to eat, so he has to go to other people's homes to buy dozens of catties.Fortunately, when it comes to New Year's Eve, there are more people killing New Year's pigs, so it's not difficult to deal with.

Large pieces of pork are boiled in the tumbling big bone broth. When the pork is cooked, it is lifted out and let the masters cut into large slices with knives, so thin that they are almost transparent, and put them into the sauerkraut soup piece by piece. , stewed with sliced ​​blood sausage.

Before the stewing, the wealthy households will let the pork go through the oil once to remove a little oily smell, but by doing so, the fresh and sweet taste of the fresh pork is also removed.

They are stewed in the village. Farmers are not afraid of oiliness, so they put more sauerkraut in the soup. The sour taste directly melts the fat of the pork, and greatly highlights the umami taste. The pork and sauerkraut are perfectly combined here. Together.In fact, since it is called a pig-killing dish, the sweetness of this fresh meat is essential.

Ah Qing was wearing an ordinary green jacket, holding a bowl, and was sitting among a group of people eating. Suddenly, he seemed to be no different from ordinary people.

Zhang Mingyang was busy greeting the guests, so he lowered his head and ate vigorously.

His appetite was not the same as when he first came here, especially today, and there were tenant farmers and wives pointing at him: "Look, he can really eat! This should be the fourth largest bowl." Come on!"

"Don't point it out, that's a guest of Mr. Zhang's house."

"Although he is good-looking, he eats too much. I heard that he doesn't know how to do any work. Will Mr. Zhang drive him away?"

"So, what's the use of being good-looking? Although Guanren Zhang doesn't dislike him, if Guanren Zhang gets married, Mrs. Zhang will definitely drive him away."

"Mr. Zhang is in his twenties, isn't he married yet?"

"I don't know. I heard that Yuanwai Liu in the town wanted to marry his daughter to him, but he refused."

"There are a lot of people who want to marry him, don't they? Once married in, they will be popular and drink hot food. No one wants to marry. If Zhang Guanren is willing, there are seventeen or eight people in our village who want to marry. It's not the turn of the people from other villages."

……

When they mentioned Ah Qing, they all lowered their voices. After all, it was gossip, but when it came to Zhang Guanren, they all seemed to have endless things to say. It didn't take long for someone to start teasing Zhang Mingyang and another tenant farmer's daughter. .

The daughter had an oval face and two thick braids, she was very generous and hearty, she just blushed when she was teased, she was not angry, she obviously had a crush on Zhang Mingyang for a long time.If Zhang Mingyang didn't refuse, maybe a matchmaker would come to the door in a few days.Although their identities don't match, they must be willing to be small.

Ah Qing looked very ugly from the side, but felt that the bowl of butchered vegetables became sour the more he ate, it was so sour that he couldn't eat it.

Why!Obviously he was the one who met Big Brother Zhang first!

He almost wanted to throw a bowl of soup over there, but before he could do anything, Zhang Mingyang got up and said, "Everyone, don't make fun of me, Miss Wang's boudoir reputation is important, if it affects her future marriage proposal, it will be my fault."

He politely refused his words, and the girl's face turned pale immediately. Zhang Mingyang walked up to Ah Qing, took Ah Qing's hand and stood up: "This is my distant cousin, named Ah Qing, everyone Let’s all come and meet him, he will live in Zhuangzi forever.”

Ah Qing didn't know what he meant, but according to Yan, she still clasped her fists and said a few polite words.

Like this kind of village banquet, after the meal is finished, the village cook will clean it up, and the host only needs to give money.

After the banquet was over, Ah Qing and Zhang Mingyang returned to the house, Ah Qing finally couldn't hold back her jealousy, and said, "Miss Wang is pretty, and it would be nice to marry her to warm your feet, why don't you?"

Zhang Mingyang asked seriously: "Are my feet cold in the middle of the night?"

Ah Qing was taken aback: "No."

Zhang Mingyang breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought I didn't sleep well, and I kicked my legs indiscriminately, and I froze you. When spring comes, I will ask someone to build a new house next to the house for you to live in. Ah Qing has grown up , it's time to get married."

Ah Qing sneered: "You don't want to get married, why do you want me to get married? With your wealth, it's easy to marry seventeen or eight, right?"

Zhang Mingyang's eyes flickered, he stared at him, and after a long time said: "I don't want to support others, I just want to support you."

Ah Qing let out an "ah", and originally wanted to force out Zhang Mingyang's intentions, but she didn't expect him to confide it so quickly and so bluntly.

"you……"

Zhang Mingyang said: "In the future, Ah Qing will still be like this. You don't have to do anything, just support me. If there is a war, a flood, and you can't survive, I will work in the land and try my best to let you live as you are now. Same day."

Ah Qing was a little stunned: "Then I want to get married?"

Zhang Mingyang's eyes dimmed a little at once, but otherwise, his expression was still very calm: "If Ah Qing wants to get married, we can't live together. At that time, the elder brother will give Ah Qing half of the land, and Ah Qing will have a daughter-in-law , there is no need for big brother to intervene.”

Ah Qing felt a sudden twitch in his heart, and quickly grabbed his hand: "Ah Qing doesn't want to get married, Ah Qing just wants to be with Eldest Brother forever."

Zhang Mingyang's hands trembled slightly.

He could always feel the faint attraction between the two of them, but he was not sure what Ah Qing was thinking.After all, most people in the world, what they think is far from what they do.He originally wanted to ask Ah Qing about his plans if he didn't get married in a few years, but he didn't expect to get an affirmative answer before this year passed.

Ah Qing saw that he was still very calm, but the trembling just now slightly leaked the thoughts in his heart, secretly laughed at himself that he was young and lacked concentration, leaned over and kissed him, until he felt the slight struggle of the person in his arms, he did not Can't help chuckling out loud.

"Then it's settled. There's no need to build any houses in the beginning of spring. It's enough to live like this now." Ah Qing exhaled softly.Unlike Zhang Mingyang who is so calm, he was quite nervous at that moment just now. He was worried that Zhang Mingyang would be like those old-fashioned ones, and he had to force him to get married in order to complete major events in life.

"It's a pity that I haven't finished eating that bowl of soup." I planned to eat seven or eight bowls, but I was so angry that I couldn't finish it when I was halfway through. Thinking about it now, I seem to be a little angry up.

Hearing Ah Qing's complaints, Zhang Mingyang also found it funny: "Don't we still have a pig in our house? Just kill it tomorrow."

"It's really wasteful to kill another pig just to eat pig meat once, and invite those people who have broken mouths." Ah Qing felt distressed when she heard it.

"This time we won't be treating guests. Just like others, we sell half of them. If you can't eat them, make sausage and bacon. You haven't eaten cured pork ribs yet, right? The ribs are wrapped in sausages and dried, and the taste of the ribs can still be preserved inside. Eat it Looks great."

Ah Qing thought for a while, then felt a little restless, and sighed softly: "The ribs are delicious no matter what you make." He doesn't like bacon very much. It's unpalatable, but the sausage is different. Presumably the cured pork ribs with casings are also delicious.

Zhang Mingyang couldn't help laughing, his hand rested lightly on Ah Qing's arm, and the two of them seemed to be chatting with each other. This kind of relationship seemed to be no different from that between brothers, but he still remembered that Ah Qing had a quick conversation just now. The feeling of kissing him on the lips was both soft and soul-stirring, and he couldn't help thinking about it.

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Mingyang boiled hot water and washed their feet.

When he came back after pouring the footwashing water, Ah Qing dragged him into the quilt.

The kang was hot, and Ah Qing's skin seemed to be scalding hot.

When the trembling lips of the two met, Zhang Mingyang felt that his last rationality had disappeared, and he was led into the deep sea of ​​desire by Ah Qing.

He always thought that as long as he raised Ah Qing, it would be a great satisfaction for him, but he didn't expect that Ah Qing had the ability to make him reach the peak of desire.

This year has been hot and sweet.

When Ah Qing heard Zhang Mingyang's serious statement that he wanted to support him, he was not uneasy. He thought that after Brother Zhang's domineering announcement, he would attack his backyard, but he didn't expect that Brother Zhang was still very gentle on the bed. , willing to accept everything about him.

Ah Qing also found out that Big Brother Zhang was not just talking casually at all, he just wanted Ah Qing to do nothing, not to do farm work, not to cook and wash clothes, and just be responsible for eating delicious food and spicy food.

Ah Qing also protested at first, but Zhang Mingyang did not do as fast and well as she could, so she had to give up.

He was so bored that he went fishing in the river.The fish and shrimps in the river are generally not worth much, and the children from poor families come to catch them.

The strange thing is that with the same hook, he can't catch as much as others.In a fit of rage, he turned the fishing rod upside down and just killed one.

Suddenly, he had an idea, took Zhang Mingyang's stove tongs, poked a lot of them to death in the shallow water of the river beach, and picked them up.

After taking the fish back, he marinated it with seasoning, and after the water on the fish dried up, he wrapped it in a thin layer of flour and fried it.He heard that other people's home cooking fish is reluctant to eat oil, but boil it in salt water. Thinking about it, he knows how unpalatable it is.Sometimes there were too many fish, and he and Zhang Mingyang couldn't finish them all at once, so the next day they took the fried small fish to the children who were fishing together.

Those children ate fried fish and thought it was very delicious.Some people were reluctant to eat and secretly kept half of it to take home, but Ah Qing didn't care.

What he didn't expect was that after a while, there were fewer and fewer children fishing with him. After asking, he found out that others were calling him "the prodigal boy" behind his back, and wouldn't let their children play with him. Be led bad by him.The most important thing is that although eating fish is a good thing, the fish is too much to eat, and the family has eaten a lot of food because of the extra fish.

Although Ah Qing was a free and easy person, being said that for no reason still made him feel resentful.

He couldn't sleep most of the night, Zhang Mingyang stroked his back, asked him what was going on, and he said it out.

Zhang Mingyang didn't take it seriously: "We live our lives, no matter what others say?"

"You don't understand anything at all!" Ah Qing was so angry that his eyes went black.

The last thought before unconsciousness was that he hadn't finished speaking yet!

When he woke up, the anger was still lingering, but he saw that the surrounding halls were brightly lit, and the curtains with blue dragon patterns were gently lifted by the wind. Only then did Ah Qing suddenly realize that he had just had a very long dream. It was not yet light, and Zhang Mingyang was lying beside him and sleeping soundly.

After this dream, I was very hungry, but now I smelled a faint fragrance.

This fragrance is not the smell of food, but the taste of some kind of spices. Strangely, this fragrance
