iron face man laughing husband

"This is on the mountain. Except for the wild animals, we are the two of us alive. Of course it's quiet." Tie Qing covered him with the quilt, took off his shoes, exposed his feet, and wiped them with hot water: "Don't leave at night." Sleeping in socks and shoes, it’s uncomfortable to sleep like that, let’s sleep like this.”

"Yeah." Brother Xiao waited for Tie Qing to pack up and lay there, and he took the initiative to rub over and curled up in Xianggong's arms: "Does Xianggong also live here every time he comes?"

"Sometimes I will stay here, and sometimes I will have a meal here." Tie Qing hugged his laughing husband, told him about the things in the mountain, and then the couple fell asleep like that.

The tree house is quiet, the autumn wind is rustling outside the tree house, and there are cries of grasshoppers, not loud or many.

When Brother Xiao woke up the next day, Tie Qing was no longer in the tree house. Under the tree, Tie Qing had already cooked millet porridge in a pot, brought boiled salted duck eggs, and big meat buns.

This breakfast is simple and delicious.

After breakfast, the two of them headed into the mountains again.

The mountains in autumn are a natural treasure house. It was the first time Xiaogeer entered the deep mountains. Although he was drilling into them, he still picked a small basket of mushrooms. Tie Qing beat a fatter pheasant and ate it at noon. Pheasant Mushroom Soup.

The staple food is the big pancakes brought.

This thing can be stored for three to five days, and when it is cold, it can be stored for ten days and a half months in the freezer.

After eating, continue to walk inside, Tie Qing is going to take brother Xiao to see his shelter, so it took three or five days to get there.

Brother Xiao's eyes widened: "What a big cave!"

This cave is so big that Brother Xiao is scared and dare not go in.

"Come in, there is everything inside." Tie Qing took his hand and entered the cave: "I put a lot of things here, people can live here."

The inside was indeed well taken care of by Tie Qing. He spent three years cleaning it up very well.

After Brother Xiao came in, he was curious about everything: "It's such a big place!"

"In the future, if something happens, you can go up the mountain and hide here. I have almost cleaned up the beasts along the way. I will come here every month to have a look." Tie Qing also built a pot stove and a kang here: "I'm going to burn the kang."

Although it is a cave, Tie Qing has arranged it one after another, and now it is more like a cave in Shaanxi, but it is much bigger, and there are too many holes.

"Sanggong, why did you find such a place?" Brother Xiao didn't understand: "This cave is so big, it looks like a place where you can live."

"This is just in case. Although it is a new dynasty, who can guarantee that there will be no war?" Tie Qing said while brushing the pot: "When there is a disaster year or something, this is a place to avoid disasters, but you Don't tell anyone, you just know."

Brother Xiao thought for a while: "Well, don't worry, Mr. Xiao, Xiaoer knows what to do."

His mouth is very tight, and he doesn't speak out about ordinary things.

Tie Qing has a lot of things here, salty bacon, salt, grain and dried vegetables.

And they are all easy to make, especially dried vegetables, which can be stewed in a pot after being soaked in water. There are as many as a sack of vermicelli alone.

The food brought by the couple had already been almost eaten, so Brother Xiao hurriedly stewed millet rice in a small pot.

Tie Qing went out and caught a little wild boar from somewhere. After killing it, he peeled off the skin and removed the internal organs, pig's head, hooves and tail. There was no time to clean up these things.

Just the boar boar will suffice.

Stewed vermicelli with wild boar meat.

I also used a little wild boar fat, stewed dried vegetables, and put a handful of dried chilies in it.

After the two of them finished their busy work, it was already dark, and it got dark early in the woods, not to mention that the light in this cave was not good. Fortunately, Tie Qing was prepared and lit several candles, all of which were suet candles as thick as a child's arm.

Although there are only two dishes, they are full of oil and water, and the millet rice is also delicious.

The couple sat and ate together, and felt the atmosphere was very warm.

"Sanggong, I want to pick mushrooms here, then dry them and bring them back." Xiao Geer could see that this place is not easy to come to, and there are no people around. The mushrooms grow thick and there are many fungus.

"Okay, just watch and play." Tie Qing said: "It's likely to rain these two days, after it rains, the mushrooms will grow thicker."

"Yeah!" Xiao Geer nodded.

Tie Qing gave him a piece of meat to eat: "Play in the mountains for two days before going back."

"Okay!" Brother Xiao pursed his lips happily: "There are many people in the family, so I don't worry about the family."

With so many people at home, it doesn't matter if they don't go back.

"Come on, try this vermicelli, it's potato flour from the store." Tie Qing was also happy, her husband likes the cave he prepared, can he not be happy.

The couple had a delicious dinner here, put their jewelry in order, and slept on the kang in the cave. The cave was clean and tidy for so long, so it was indeed very comfortable.

Waking up the next day, the couple could finally not have to climb the mountain and walk, but had a leisurely breakfast, and then Tie Qing accompanied Brother Xiao to pick a lot of mushrooms nearby.

There are also big oily mushrooms, Xiaogeer will deal with them on the spot, wash them and blanch them, then find two big jars and marinate them: "When you come later, there will be a salty mushroom to eat."

"Husband is a virtuous man!" Tie Qing cheerfully helped him.

What I ate at night was freshly picked mushrooms, and I stewed two pheasants in it, which tasted very good.

After staying in the cave for three to five days, Brother Xiao pickled two jars of salted mushrooms and dried two baskets of dried mushrooms. One basket was left in the cave, and the rest were carried down the mountain.

The couple played in the mountains for a few days before going down the mountain.

As a result, when he got off the mountain, he saw Old Chief Xiao waiting at the foot of the mountain with a carriage.

"Why are you here?" Tie Qing quickly stepped forward: "In such a cold weather, don't catch a cold."

"The two of you came out." Old boss Xiao wiped his nose: "Hurry up and go back with me, the whole village is waiting for you."

"Huh?" Brother Xiao blinked his eyes: "The whole village is waiting for us?"

The two of them are so important that the whole village is waiting for them to go down the mountain?

"No, we'll talk about it when we get home, let's go." Old Chief Xiao urged the two of them to get into the car.

The two had no choice but to put the back basket and the wicker basket they were carrying in the car, as well as the prey they had hunted, several fat rabbits, and more than a dozen pheasants.

Because it was in the mountains with Fu Lang, Tie Qing didn't hunt big game.

On the contrary, brother Xiao picked a lot of mushrooms and fungus, enough to feed the whole family for half a month.

Old Xiao boss drove the carriage and brought the couple back to Tie's house.

Everything is normal at home, everyone should do whatever they want, even finished last year's grain, and fed chickens, ducks, geese, dogs and pigs with rice bran and the like.

Even horses and donkeys are well-raised.

The family has already picked up all the corn, and the corridors are full of corn tassels. It is a scene of a bumper harvest at first glance.

"We're back!" Brother Xiao shouted loudly as soon as he came back.

"The master husband is back." Yuan Fulang's voice was not low, and he picked up the things on their carriage when he came out: "So many mushrooms? Oh, this fungus is really good."

"They were all picked in the deep mountains, much better than those outside." Brother Xiao also got off the car with a basket: "The meat is thick."

When the two of them came back, there was hot water at home, so they washed up and changed into clean clothes.

Old Chief Xiao was already waiting for the two of them on the kang.

Brother Xiao went to the kitchen, chatting with two husbands and one Xinghua sister-in-law.

Tie Qing entered the room and got on the kang, sat cross-legged, and poured a pot of tea for Old Xiao.

"My father-in-law, what's the matter? The whole village is waiting for us?" Tie Qing laughed at himself when he said this.

"Isn't it?" Old Xiao Boss rarely felt sad: "You are really rare."

"Ah?" Tie Qing was puzzled, "What are you talking about?"

"The people from the Song family's grain shop who came to collect the grain at the old village head Wei's house." The old head Xiao said: "The price of three copper coins per catty is high enough, and I even come to the village to pull Grain, however, I heard that you are a big household in the village, so I want to confirm with you first, if you sell grain, you will probably be the first one, so their purchase price is so high, in fact, they are rushing to collect more. As a result, you are still not at home, and the matter is delayed. If there are few purchases, it may not be able to meet the price, and they will not give the price of three copper coins per catty."

So the whole village is coming back with the Tie Qing couple in their arms!

There is no one in their family, no matter how close the old man is, he can't make the decision to sell the grain of Lao Tie's family.

"This price is not bad!" Tie Qing also felt that at this price, he could sell some of the corn at home, and he couldn't eat the corn on the five or six hundred acres of land.

At the same time, Brother Xiao, who is in the back kitchen, is working with Wu Fulang to clean up the small mushrooms he picked from the mountains. This small mushroom is only the size of a little finger, and it is a famous mushroom with small feet.

Regardless of its small size, this kind of mushroom with small feet is very tasty, and the stewed chicken is the best.

There are also rare hazel mushrooms, this one needs to be cleaned up. In winter, chicken and mushroom powder is definitely the first delicacy.

It was Wu Fulang who said to Brother Xiao: "After you left for two days, Ming Fulang came to deliver pork again. I gave him the money you left, but he always inquired about you and the boss."

"Inquire about what we are doing?" Brother Xiao said with a smile while packing the mushrooms, "Our relationship is not that good yet. He thought about my husband-in-law back then, but unfortunately, my husband-in-law didn't take a fancy to him back then."

This kind of thing is very common in the countryside, and everyone is not a child of a big family, and they don't leave the house without leaving the door, not to mention that there are not so many rules in the countryside.

It's good to say that the matchmaking is successful, but if it doesn't work, don't you still have to deal with it?

There are a total of [-] households in the village, and those who look up do not see each other when they look down, and they cannot survive.

"It's strange to say that after he came, he kept asking how you two are doing, whether your life is going smoothly or not, and he still doesn't believe me when I say it's going smoothly. To be honest, it's the first time I've seen you two living like this. , don’t mention being so gentle, why does he always ask this?” Wu Fulang said unhappily: “I wish you two had a small fight every two days, and a big fight every three days to be happy? Who the hell! "

Xiao Geer's hand paused: "Is he like this?"

"Yeah, let me tell you, Xiaofulang, you are the head of our family, so be careful of people outside." Wu Fulang is very sensitive about this: "You are just newly married, and someone will inquire about it. If you inquire about this, after a long time, you may find out something, you have to be careful."

"I see." Brother Xiao thought thoughtfully.

In the house, Old Xiao boss talked about selling grain, and Tie Qing said directly: "You can do what you want, if it's three copper coins a catty, we'll sell half of it and keep the half for ourselves, that's not a lot made money."

In Tie Qing's family, not only he and his husband, but also the long-term workers, he has agreed that at the end of the year, the long-term workers will be given food, money and cloth as a year's hard work expenses.

"That's good, that's good!" He was afraid that Tie Qing would sell it at a high price, and if he was not in a hurry to ship it, then the autumn grain for the whole village would probably not be able to sell for a good price like three copper coins a catty.

Just after talking about this matter, and then mentioning the inside of the mountain, Tie Qing told Lao Boss: "I have taken care of more than 30 dead trees, and when the time comes, I will take people into the mountain to cut them out. In winter, some of them will be burned. .”

"You have the final say on the matter of firewood." Old boss Xiao didn't worry about firewood for several years.

When it was dark, old Aunt Xiao asked Xiao Rui to come over and tell them that she and Aunt Xiao had dinner together and would not come to Tie's house anymore.

Old boss Xiao ate dinner here.

And the next day, after waking up early in the morning, Tie Qing went to Old Wei Village Chief's house after breakfast.

It is said that the people from the Song Family Grain Shop have been staying at the home of the old village head Wei. Although they said they brought their own food, the old village head Wei did not neglect them. They ate either fat chickens or big ducks every day. All guaranteed a meat dish.

Fortunately, at this time, the chickens, ducks and geese in the house have all grown up.

There are quite a few of them at home, enough to eat.

When Tie Qing arrived, the old village chief Wei had just had breakfast with the distinguished guests and was drinking tea, which was actually tea leaves.

Seeing Tie Qing coming, Old Village Chief Wei warmly introduced him: "Come, come, this is Song Hui, the manager of the Song Family Grain Shop."

Song Hui looked like a middle-aged man, well dressed, with sharp eyes, he looked like an old businessman.

He was accompanied by two apprentices and a coachman who drove him.

A group of four people has stayed here for almost half a month.

Tie Qing was looking at Song Hui, and Song Hui was also looking at Tie Qing.

Because he was here to see a guest, Tie Qing wore a better dress, a robe with a stand-up collar, a wild boar belt around his waist, and a pair of deerskin boots on his feet.

Although he is a rich man from the countryside, he is powerful and has sharp eyes.

Especially between looking forward to, that kind of self-confidence, composure, calmness, and expression.

Song Hui nodded in his heart, such a person is worthy of their eldest lady.
