The Sweet Little Fulang

This time I didn't bring many things up the mountain, except for a larger bathtub, the others were food and drink, which wasn't as laborious as last time.

This bathtub was made by a carpenter before getting married. Although it is not as exquisite as the people in the town who carve flowers and birds, it is new anyway. It is only used by Shen Xuanqing and the new husband, which is enough to see that the Shen family spent a lot of money on this marriage. great effort.

But after arriving at Shen's house, neither Lu Gu nor Shen Xuanqing had ever used a bathtub. It was summer a while ago, just boil some water for scrubbing. What's more, taking a bath with a bathtub requires boiling a large pot of water. It is convenient to fetch water, but burning firewood like this is also costly, and firewood is not obtained out of thin air, and you have to go up the mountain to cut it. Except before the New Year's Day, how can the country people be willing to take such a big bath.

Shen Xuanqing was scrubbing on the mountain a few days ago. It was colder in the mountain than outside the mountain at night. He was fine. If it went on, when even he couldn't stand it, Lu Gu would be let alone, so he moved the tub Come up, if no one uses it at home, it will also accumulate dust.

In the kitchen, Lu Gu was busy cooking and cooking rice wine, which was faster than cooking rice soup. Put some goji berries and boil them to serve them. Shen Xuanqing moved things down, and when the meal was ready, he even swept the fallen leaves blown in from the yard clean.

It was past noon, and because their legs and feet were tired from the journey, the two of them lay down on the bed to rest after eating, and took a nap for a while.

Lu Gu is used to being hugged while sleeping, but Shen Xuanqing is too tall, with a hard chest, long legs and long arms, so he feels coerced and frightening when he uses a little strength.

Being able to eat enough and being hugged by her husband was solid and comfortable for Shen Xuanqing, and she slept peacefully for a while, and when she woke up, her spirit returned, and her eyes were radiant.

He originally wanted to get up and go to work, but the little husband in his arms made it hard for him to let go.Xu Shi hadn't shared the same bed for several days, his Adam's apple rolled, and he couldn't help rubbing against Lu Gu's cheek.

Lu Gu was lying on the bottom, his eyes were flustered, but he tried his best not to move, because outsiders would have no way of knowing what was going on under the quilt.

Fortunately, it was broad daylight, and Shen Xuanqing didn't really do it. After a while, she got up and said in a low hoarse voice that she was going to fence in the backyard.

Lu Gu's face was red and his ears were red, he clenched his underwear and sat up slowly.

When that kind of thing happens at night, Shen Xuanqing is always different from usual, which makes him even more fearful, he dare not even say a word, his heart is trembling, his throat seems to be trembling, he clenches his lips tightly and dare not say anything. He didn't dare to curl up his body even if there was any sound, and spread out his limbs and remained motionless.

If you put it on someone who understands people and understands fun, he is undoubtedly jerky and boring, but Shen Xuanqing is the same as him. How can he understand these things? With experience, I can't do those things for a while.And right now, it was enough for him.

The mountain wind blew through the hall, blowing away the heat and embarrassment, Lu Gu took a while to feel at ease.

There was still a pile of dried bamboo and wooden sticks in the firewood room. Shen Xuanqing carried them directly to the backyard, cut them open, and surrounded two places against the wall.

They mostly hatch chickens and ducks in spring, and there are very few autumn chicks, so he spent a lot of effort when he went to the market that day to find them, but he didn't buy many, seven ducks and eight chickens, and the chicken coop and the duck coop It doesn't have to be too big.

When he was working, Lu Gu was boiling water in the kitchen in the front yard. After boiling, he brought a bowl and put it aside to dry, and then helped Shen Xuanqing insert bamboo poles and sticks into the ground.

"Let the chickens out during the day, and they will look for food outside. The ducks can also enter the water. They can eat grass on the ground or fish, shrimp, and earthworms in the water. If you don't want to let them out, just grab some bran. , They can be eaten after being soaked in water.”

Shen Xuanqing explained to Lu Gu, he thought for a while and then said: "It is better to fence the outside and enclose a large area, so as not to prevent the chicken from running far in the woods and being caught by something bigger. .”

Upon hearing this, Lu Gu nodded quickly and said, "I'll be with you."

These are the chickens and ducks raised for him, and they are precious in my heart, and I must not let the things in the mountains be taken away.

After the fence was completed, Lu Gu drove the chicks and ducklings who were locked in the firewood house over, and put them into the fence separately.

The chicks and ducklings made childish calls, which made him a little reluctant to leave. He squatted down and touched the chicken's head, and the chicks twittered and chirped, and surrounded him.

When he looked up at the duck pen, Shen Xuanqing leveled the ground with a shovel inside, and when he was walking out, the ducklings lined up and followed behind his feet, step by step, as if following a mother duck.

Ducklings are like this, if you put them in the water, they are much more attractive than chickens, Lu Gu smiled.

Shen Xuanqing blocked the ducklings inside and closed the fence gate, and when she turned her head, she saw a smile on his face.

At this time, the autumn air is refreshing, Lu Gu's face is a little rosy under the sun, his skin is no longer as white and bloodless as before, it has become radiant, and the red marks between his brows are as beautiful as flowers, but he is still thin.

It would be better to be fatter, Shen Xuanqing couldn't help thinking this way, but he didn't say anything, even if he said it now, he wouldn't get fat immediately.

The fence is complete. Lu Gu used soft hay to make nests for chickens and ducklings. He even put the pair of rabbits in the bamboo cage in the backyard. He stuffed a lot of grass into the cage when he was walking two days ago. , I came back today and saw that I ate them all, and I didn’t starve to death. Lu Gu plucked some of them before cooking.

Unlike chickens and ducks, wild rabbits can dig holes, and they are not slow to dig up the soil. It is better to use a cage.

Before evening, Shen Xuanqing carried a shovel and a long hoe, and Lu Gu went with him to the river with a smaller hoe. They picked a suitable location and dug a hole for a pond. Come out to swim with the ducks, the river in the mountain is long, if they go down the river, Lu Gu can't find them.

When I was in Qingxi Village, because there were a lot of ducks in the village, I was afraid of being arrested if I traveled far away, and I was afraid of mixing with other people's ducks. If I met someone who liked to take advantage, it would take a lot of effort to get the ducks back, so Shen Yan often releases ducks in the pond. If she is free and doesn't need to hunt chicken grass, she only watches the ducks swim in the river for a while.

Shen Xuanqing used a shovel to draw a square of two feet. This pond is really not small. They only have seven ducks, enough to flop about in it.

Digging a pit is a laborious job, and it will definitely take a lot of work to dig it deep. Even if Lu Gu bends down and swings a hoe, he can't finish digging today.

There are many rocks in the mountains. Fortunately, the old Orion chose a good place. There is a lot of soil beside the river and the forest. When digging down, they rarely encounter rocks. All right.

When the sun sank to the west, Lu Gu went back to cook first, and Shen Xuanqing rolled up his sleeves and continued to work. Whether it was a hoe or a shovel, it seemed powerful in his hands. The muscles on his arms seemed to be cast in copper during his actions, and his physique was strong. He is much stronger than ordinary men, and he is not lacking in handsomeness.

The smoke rose, and the steamed buns were heated in the Lugu pot, and they were cutting vegetables and meat. Even if it was shady and cool in the mountains, the raw meat would not last long, and it would be fresh only if eaten early.

He and Shen Xuanqing often ate fish and hunted birds in the mountains. Shen Xuanqing shot accurately with the slingshot and could often bring back the birds that were shot. Wild animals such as hares and pheasants can be sold for money, and most of the birds are dead. , I ate it by myself, and I also saw a meaty smell.

But compared to these things, country people are reluctant to eat and drink all year round. Most of them like to eat fatty pork, and pork with more fat is more delicious. Lu Gu is no exception, and Shen Xuanqing has had two or three years of hard life. The same is true.

Lu Gu fried the meat with autumn chili peppers, the meat was plentiful and rich, and mixed with a vegetable melon, which was crisp and greasy, two bowls of vegetables were enough for the two of them.

You need to be very careful in this kind of deep mountain forest. As soon as it got dark, Shen Xuanqing came back and didn't stay outside.

After the three dogs came in, he lowered the threshold and closed the courtyard door, and covered it with a thick tree trunk. Taking advantage of this time, Lu Gu brought all the meals to the table.

After washing his hands, he went into the main room and saw that there was meat to eat tonight, so Shen Xuanqing went to the kitchen to get a bowl and poured a small bowl of wine.

After he sat down, he asked Lu Gu, "Have a taste?"

Lu Gu shook his head, the wine tasted spicy, he couldn't drink it, Shen Xuanqing didn't force it, and drank half of the bowl by himself while eating the meat.

The mountain breeze is warm, and the taste of being full of wine and food makes people feel at ease, and good days are nothing more than this.

After washing and lying down at night, Shen Xuanqing held Lu Gu in his arms, and smelled such a soft breath again. He obviously only drank a little, but now he was slightly drunk from the alcohol that had disappeared while drinking, making his heart itchy and hot. As soon as he turned over, he crushed the person underneath.

-

Shen Xuanqing and Lu Gu worked for another three days to dig the pond and the big fence outside the house. The outside of the house is no better than the backyard. The fence must be denser, otherwise the chickens will squeeze out along the cracks or other things will squeeze in. It would not be good to drag the chickens away, as this would require more bamboo, and they went to the bamboo forest to cut ten more, Shen Xuanqing couldn't resist once, so he ran twice.

The pond was dug to a depth of about one person. When Shen Xuanqing was standing inside digging, Lu Gu took a hemp rope and hung a basket on the top of the pit, and poured the excavated soil to the side. Because of the size of the pond, Shen Xuanqing was also cautious. After digging, people standing inside are not afraid of the soil collapsing. After digging, they use shovel and shovel to pat the soil wall tightly.

After the pond was dug, a small canal was dug from the side next to the river to divert water from the side of the river. The last shovel went down, the small canal was opened, and the river flowed in. Several big stones were moved to block the river, allowing the water to flow towards the pond.

Those few stones were really not light, and he pushed and moved them, which made him slow down on the shore for a while after coming up.

Lu Gu wanted to help just now, but such a big rock couldn't be moved at all. Shen Xuanqing laughed when he saw it. He tried it, and then moved away with a sullen head.

The river was rushing into the pit, and when Shen Xuanqing saw him squatting in a thin ball by the pond, it made people feel sorry for him and wanted to lift him up.After taking that breath, the tall man finally couldn't hold back, picked him up, and gently rubbed his hair in his arms.

Lu Gu who was suddenly picked up was startled. Shen Xuanqing was still panting because she was too tired to carry the stone. Her strong and broad chest seemed to be hot. The big strong hand pressed on his head and gently rubbed his head, letting his The face accidentally stuck to Shen Xuanqing's heart.

Obviously he couldn't see the expression, but from the ups and downs of Shen Xuanqing's chest and the faint beating of his heart, he felt that Shen Xuanqing was happy.

Is it so happy to hug her? He was actually puzzled.

It wasn't until he realized that he was hugged for a long time that he blushed later, and felt that Shen Xuanqing's body was too hot. The heat came to his face, and even he felt hot, and he didn't dare to raise his head in his arms.
