Farmers have only a few days to relax throughout the year. Not long after the rooster crowed, the Qingxi Village at the foot of the mountain gradually began to have people's voices.

Lu Gu had a good night's sleep yesterday, and he woke up whenever there was any movement from Shen Xuanqing. At least he didn't oversleep, so he couldn't help but feel a little lucky.

The words of Ji Qiuyue and Wei Lanxiang yesterday made him realize that although he was sold to the Shen family, he was different from the servants of those wealthy families who were not members of the family, and he had to give Shen Xuanqing Do husband.

This matter is nothing more than anything else, he never thought that he would have a day as a husband, so he was a little caught off guard.

Shen Xuanqing got up, and Lu Gu also sat up anxiously, for fear of being said to be lazy in bed.No one taught him how to serve his husband after marriage, so the hands on the thin quilt subconsciously clenched.

Shen Xuanqing put on his shoes and went to the ground. To him, Lu Gu's existence was very obvious, after all, there was only one quilt at night.The matter has come to this point, even though he has completely fallen out with the Lu family, but Lu Gu is already his husband, so it is not appropriate to leave it alone.

Standing by the bed, he saw that Lu Gu was nervous, his face turned pale, and the linen cloth wrapped around his head was a little loose due to a night's sleep. Finally, he found the words and said, "Mr. Go over and change the medicine, get up and tidy up, and cool off in the morning."

Lu Gu nodded repeatedly, and was afraid that Shen Xuanqing would be upset if he didn't speak, so he hurriedly said in a low voice, "Okay."

Fulang was less courageous than a rabbit, causing Shen Xuanqing to frown. Fortunately, Lu Gu kept his head down and didn't see it, otherwise he would have been terrified for several days.

The Shen family got up one after another to wash in the yard, even Lu Gu used a new basin and cloth towel last night, and even green salt for cleaning teeth and rinsing mouth.This was originally prepared for the purpose of marrying the new husband. After all, Lu Wen had studied in the town for a few days, and he had more or less things commonly used by Shuanger in the town.

When he was in Lu's house, the green salt that had to be bought with money was not for Lu Gu. He was afraid of being said to be pickled and dirty, so he would break willow branches and bite them to clean his teeth, or chew it in his mouth. chew.

A faint wisp of cooking smoke rose from the chimney, and Ji Qiuyue boiled water and heated up some steamed rice cakes along the way.

Generally speaking, people in the village eat two meals a day, unless they eat three meals when the farming is busy, and the Shen family has two young and middle-aged men who work a lot and have a big appetite, so they have to eat one meal even when they get up early. Otherwise, you will have no energy to do things on an empty stomach.

But this is only because the days have improved recently, so I can eat like this, and I will never do it in the past two years.Except for Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing who ate two sheets of steamed cakes, the other four had half sheets. They ate too much oil and meat these days, so they grabbed a bowl of small pickles and ate them.

Eating early is simple, there is no need to put chopsticks on the table, so Ji Qiuyue directly handed the pancakes to her hands when she divided them, and even the small pickles were good at pinching, and a few people squatted or stood in the yard to start eating.

Lu Gu was holding half a sheet of steamed pancakes, the pancakes were soft and warm, and after everyone else had taken them, he squeezed some small pickles from the bowl, imitating the rest of the Shen family to put them in the pancakes, biting down it was salty and crispy , but it goes well with steamed cakes.

He was able to drink a few sips of hot water and eat something so early, which made Lu Gu feel a little grateful when he was panicked.

Farmers seldom eat food carefully, and besides, the steamed pancakes are not too big, so Shen Xuanqing can finish it in two or three bites, and two pancakes are enough for him to get up early to fill his stomach.Lu Gu has been secretly watching, eating quickly, afraid of delaying the time to go out.

"Mother, I'll change the medicine with him." Shen Xuanqing said to Wei Lanxiang, and the two went out one after the other.

It was early, the sun had only just risen.

This summer is hotter than before, but Qingxi Village is close to the mountains, so it's still a bit chilly in the morning, but at least it won't make people freeze.

Lu Gu followed Shen Xuanqing and walked out of the village, meeting several people along the way.

The news about the Shen family spread in Qingxi Village, and everyone was curious. At this time, seeing Shen Xuanqing following a strange pair, they guessed that it was the other pair of the Lu family, so they took a closer look.

Anyone who puts up this kind of thing feels aggrieved, and no one is so blind to ask, isn't this a bad luck for others, so I just quietly watch and wait and see.

Being stared at, Lu Gu lowered his head, if he hadn't been able to see Shen Xuanqing's legs and feet, he would have been trembling with fright.

When getting up early, women and husbands are always sweeping the courtyard and the door, and there are not many men coming out. Although most of their eyes are directed at Lu Gu, Shen Xuanqing noticed that some people quietly looked at him.

He didn't like being stared at, so he looked over frankly and asked, "Uncle Lin, is he going to get up early?"

Lin Jinhu was caught in the act, fortunately he was looking at Shen Xuanqing instead of Lu Gu, and there was still a step down, scratching his head embarrassingly and laughing: "Yes, yes."

Although Shen Xuanqing was asking questions at home, but when he opened his mouth, people with winking eyes knew that they had restrained themselves, and the sight of Lu Gu fell a lot less.The two of them didn't stop, they left the village and walked straight towards Anjia Village.

-

At the herb doctor's house, Wang Langzhong took off the blood-stained linen cloth from Lu Gu's head, and re-pasted herbs on the forehead.

He knew a little bit about feeling the pulse, and he gave Lu Gu a consultation, and finally shook his head and sighed: "The foundation is short, others need ten days, and you need 20 days to heal the injury, just this moment and a half can't heal the shortfall return."

Wang Langzhong is getting old, seeing Lu Gu so thin, he can't help but start rambling, it was Wang Ama who gave him a wink and told him not to talk, so he stopped his mouth in surprise, looked up and saw Shen Xuanqing's expression remained the same, Don't worry if you don't dislike Lu Gu.

Ordinary people marry husbands to make a living. It is not easy for peasants to marry wives. Few people are willing to marry a sick child and go back to burden them. Besides, Lu Gu was bought back by others. How can he care about his health? of.

It is inconvenient to keep the medicine when it is ready, and there are various things to do when I go back. Shen Xuanqing asked Lu Gu when he would come to change the medicine next time.

It is said that Yuanjia Road is narrow, and the path they took would not pass in front of Lu's house, but they ran into Du Hehua, who was digging wild vegetables in the field behind the village, which was usually Lu Gu's job.

In her eyes, how can she not complain about having too much work for nothing, and curse a few words from time to time, never thinking that she will meet the rightful owner just by cursing.

She was scared of Shen Xuanqing, Lu Daxiang was still lying on the bed until today, no one showed her up, so no matter how much she hated Lu Gu, she would immediately shut her mouth tightly like the mussels in the river, After the two of them walked away, she turned her head and spat on the ground.

Hitting a woman's Shuang'er is the most useless thing, Du Hehua didn't mess around today, Shen Xuanqing didn't even bother to look at her.

As for Lu Gu, he was able to eat enough without being beaten in the Shen's house for the past two days, but seeing Du Hehua actually brought him a sense of relief, he no longer had to hear those harsh and unpleasant screams, his ears seemed to be clean many.

-

After returning home, only Wei Lanxiang was at home, Shen Yaoqing sent his daughter-in-law back to her natal home, and Shen Yan released ducks in the pond behind the house.

Seeing that Wei Lanxiang was peeling beans, Lu Gu hurried over to help, he squatted down in a hurry to work, and Shen Xuanqing brought him a small stool to sit down.

When he was in Lu's house, no one would give him a stool and make Lu Gu be more respectful to Shen Xuanqing.

He understood that the Shen family treated him well today because he was a good person, not as dark-hearted as Du Hehua, but the more this happened, the more uneasy he became, and he was determined to work hard and be obedient, for fear of going back to The days when you can't eat enough and you will be beaten and scolded.

Wei Lanxiang felt a little more at ease when he saw that his hands were nimble and he wasn't lazy or slippery at all.

The dog in the backyard barked and clucked, she saw that Lu Gu's complexion was much better today than yesterday, and she saw Shen Xuanqing took out the medicine bag from the kitchen, so she said: "You go to the backyard to collect the eggs first, and come over to cook the medicine on the stove. You don't need to do it."

Lu Gu hurriedly got up and went to get the bamboo basket under the eaves of the kitchen. He saw Shen Yan using this to collect eggs yesterday.

The Shen family's backyard is entered from the road that leans against the mud wall on the east. It is about half a foot wide, enough for two people to walk side by side.

Originally, you could go to the back by passing through the main room, but most of the houses built in recent years have sealed the back of the main room with a mud wall, separating it from the backyard, and the same is true for the Shen family.

This was originally a layout only found in villages close to Fenggu Town, but it gradually spread to the surrounding area.

Farmers with a better life will raise some livestock, and they can sell them to earn more money if they are reluctant to eat them. But raising livestock means that there will be a smell of excrement, and in summer there will be dung flies flying around.

After separating the backyard where the livestock is kept from the main house, there are naturally fewer flies flying in, and the smell in the house can be better and cleaner.

The noble people in the town all pay attention to cleanliness and food, and the filthy dark bugs in the pickled meat are easy to cause people to get sick. Those doctors have said that it is now a time of peace and prosperity, and these things gradually spread, even People in the village are willing to pay attention to details, and it is considered a face to go out and have a show with the people in the town.

Lu Gu smelled the smell of burning medicine, and saw plant ashes and some unburned hay stalks scattered all over the narrow passage on the ground. He knew that the green medicine leaves were lit to drive away the flies with thick smoke and smell, and stopped them It's buzzing here and there.

The three walls in the backyard are all mud walls, not fence walls, which shows that the Shen family also put a lot of effort into building the house.

The chickens and ducks are kept separately, and the backyard of the Shen family is considered large. The chicken pen is surrounded by a bamboo fence, and a dozen or so chickens inside are pawing and pecking everywhere.

As soon as Lu Gu came to the backyard, he saw three dogs tied up. Da Hui was alert for a moment, but he fell down when he saw him. Only two small dogs barked a few times. Fortunately, the chicken pen was far away from the doghouse, so he would not I dare not go in.

There are chicken coops with hay mats and bamboo chicken coops on both sides of the chicken coop, and Lu Gu looks around for eggs.

I don't know how the hen laid eggs, but he was told to turn over one under the hen's nest.

If you want to touch someone's eggs, you naturally want to take advantage of the hen's not paying attention. Lu Gu quickly picked it up, and the hen that rushed over with flapping wings didn't peck his hand, so it clucked and walked away.

Suddenly, Da Hui stood up with a "crack" and bit non-stop in the direction of the landing valley.

At the same time, Lu Gu felt cold behind his back, and when he turned around, he saw that the black thin dog that was supposed to be tied had got off the leash at some point, and he came a few steps away without a sound, with fierce eyes and white eyes. The fangs are terrifying.
