husband, he picked it up [farming]

A heavy rain last night splashed mud on the road, and it was wet everywhere. If you don't pay attention, you can step on the yellow mud.

The roads in Xishui Village are mostly loess roads, rarely paved with stones, so they are most afraid of rain, not only easy to stain shoes and pants, but also easy to fall.

Fang Mu reminded Chao Yan to pay attention to the puddle under his feet, and at the same time led him to Li Datong's house.

Chaoyan didn't know his destination, so she just followed him foolishly, very well-behaved.

After a while, the two turned around the corners of several houses and walked through several alleys to the front of Li Datong's house.

Li Datong's family is a single family, and there is a small road leading directly to it, so it is easy to identify.

Seeing him turning into the path, Chaoyan glanced at the big house in front of him.

The house was surrounded by earthen walls. Because of the rain last night, the earthen walls were soaked in water, and now it was dripping like sweat, and there were still a few yellow flowers and green leaves falling on the edge of the wall.

Apparently it had been knocked down by the rain.

When he was about to get there, Fang Mu called out, "Brother Datong, are you at home? I'm Fang Mu."

Li Datong's voice drifted out through the wall: "Yes."

After a while, the courtyard door was opened, and Li Datong's eldest son Li Yuwen poked his head out from behind the door.

Fang Mu turned his head to look at Chaoyan, motioning for him to follow.

When he arrived, Li Yuwen greeted Fang Mu: "Uncle Mu Zi."

Fang Mu glanced at his elder nephew, who was only two years younger than himself, and nodded solemnly: "I'm here to talk to your father about something."

Li Yuwen's name was delicate, but he was the opposite. He had a strong body, a sallow complexion, and a loud voice: "It's inside." He glanced at Chao Yan behind Fang Mu, and let the two of them go in.

They already knew about the addition of a man to Fang Mu's family, but it was the first time they had seen each other after so many days, and it was Fang Mu who brought him to the door. Although Li Yuwen was curious, he didn't ask what he shouldn't.

When Chaoyan entered, she nodded to Li Yuwen as a greeting.

Li Yuwen nodded his head in return.

It rained last night, and the family had a good time. In addition to Li Yuhui, who was going to school, Li Datong's family also had his married second daughter, Li Yuxiu. They, Li Yuwen, his wife, and his toddler son were all there.

Li Datong was teasing with his grandson in his arms, his simple face was full of smiles.

"Sister-in-law..." Fang Mu called Li Datong's wife and said hello to Li Yuwen's wife, before introducing Chaoyan to them: "This is my housemate, Chaoyan."

Chao Yan greeted Li Datong and his wife according to Fang Mu's seniority.

It is not necessary for him to take the initiative in the words of the junior.

Sure enough, after he finished asking, Li Yuwen's wife also called out: "Uncle Muzi, Uncle Yan."

"..." Only eighteen this year, Chao Yan, who was obviously younger than Li Yuwen and his wife, felt her face numb.

Li Datong handed the eldest grandson who was playing with his hair to his daughter-in-law, and laughed at Fang Mu: "Are you planning to bring someone to us to meet to save the wedding?" As for Fang Mu finding a man to live with, Li Datong It is accepted well. Although it is rare for folk men to break their sleeves and get married, it is not uncommon. People are living a good life, and it is not their turn to make irresponsible remarks.

And in Fang Mu's case, there's nothing wrong with finding a man.

Fang Mu also smiled: "How can it be, no one can miss your cup, I'm here today because I have something to ask you."

Li Datong asked them to come in and sit down and talk.

His wife and daughter-in-law took their children back to their own house, but Li Yuwen is still there. Although he is a junior, he will support this family in the future, and Li Datong, who is sophisticated in the family, does not avoid him.

Rural people are poor and cannot afford tea. Even if there is tea, it is broken tea or very cheap secondary tea. The tea soup brewed in this way is very rare for rural people.

They don't know about fine nectar and fine wine, they only know that a cup of tea in their spare time is very good.

Li Yuwen poured tea for the three elders separately, before pouring his own.

Fang Mu cut to the chase and said, "That's right, I would like to ask you to send a piece of tofu to my house every few days."

When the business came early in the morning, Li Datong was naturally happy: "It depends on whether it is a day or two."

Fang Mu looked at Chaoyan.

Only then did Chaoyan realize that he came to the village for her own sake, and said, "Let's say in two days."

Li Datong nodded happily: "Success." He asked Fang Mu again: "Are you going out soon?"

Fang Mu hummed: "When I'm not at home, if it's convenient, please help me take care of Yanyan."

Li Datong's relationship with their family can be regarded as close, so he said to Chao Yan: "If you have anything to do, you can come here to find me directly, don't be too extravagant."

"Thank you Brother Datong."

Li Datong smiled: "You're welcome, it's only natural for everyone in the neighborhood to help each other."

Chao Yan was grateful.

Although Xishui Village is not rich, its folk customs can be regarded as simple and honest, and the neighbors are also willing to help others.

Rarely free and happened to sit together, Fang Mu and Chaoyan stayed and chatted for a while, drank a pot of tea, and sat for about two quarters of an hour before getting up to leave.

Fang Mu said: "Then I will leave this matter to you, I still have something to do, I will talk about it in the future."

"Come on, Yuwen is going to see off your two uncles."

Li Yuwen nodded and sent Fang Mu and Chao Yan out.

Chaoyan waved goodbye to Li Datong.

Li Datong smiled at him.

Li Yuwen returned after seeing the two of them off, his father was still drinking the pot of tea that was too weak to taste.

"Uncle Muzi seems to be younger than me." Chaoyan has been raised by Fang Mu for so many days, and the dusty servants at the beginning have long since disappeared. It's tender.

Li Datong said to him: "No matter how young he is, he is still your uncle."

Li Yuwen chuckled twice.

Besides, when Fang Mu and Chao Yan came out of Li Datong's house, Chao Yan asked Fang Mu, "Are you going back?"

"Go to Huiyuan's house."

Li Huiyuan has an impression of Chaoyan, which is quite good, just because Li Huiyuan is really simple and easy to understand.

"Where is his home?"

Fang Mu probably pointed in a direction: "Go to the right."

Chaoyan followed in his footsteps to Li Huiyuan's house.

Unfortunately, Li Huiyuan was not there, and Grandma Li said that he had gone to the pond to release ducks.

Chaoyan felt a little regretful, otherwise she could still tease the little brother.

Fang Mu didn't come to find Li Huiyuan either, he explained to Grandma Li why he came, and he meant the same thing, asking his family to send some eggs to the foot of the mountain every few days.

Grandma Li asked: "Should I send it off today?"

Fang Mu thought about it. There are still a few left in the family. They were sent by Fang Lin before and Li Daqing also sent some leftovers. The ones that Li Daqing sent were thanks to them for saving Li Huiyuan. Apart from food, they couldn't bring out any precious things. Eggs were quite heavy on the gift list, and Fang Mu didn't plan to accept them, but he didn't force Li Daqing in the end.

The honest man is good at stuffing things.

Fang Mu said conveniently, "I'll deliver it in three to five days after I deliver it this time."

Grandma Li said, "If I give you three today, there will be five tomorrow."

Hens lay more eggs in spring, but fewer eggs in summer. Now they have to make enough eggs to feed Fangmu.

"Success, then deliver it tomorrow."

Grandma Li agreed.

Fang Mu also left with Zhao Yan.

After solving the two most important things, Fang Mu felt relaxed.

It was Chaoyan who moved the man to do this for him.

"You don't have to worry about me so much, I can take care of myself at home alone."

Fang Mu said with a smile: "I don't want to worry about you, it's not about getting married, I don't want my husband to lose weight." This is just an excuse, the main reason is that Fang Mu is worried about Chao Yan Reluctant to spend money, he simply took care of it in advance: "Don't worry about it, take good care of it."

Chaoyan looked at him, this man could always impress him in any place.

At this time, the two were walking on the small road in the village. Chaoyan looked back and forth, only seeing a stretch of houses, but no people, so they stretched out their hands to shake Fang Mu's hand.

Fang Mu smiled and didn't break away.

The two walked for a while holding hands, and then ran into villagers head-on at the corner.

They are all from the east of the village, and they are the same age, how can they not know each other?

The three men walking towards each other saw Fang Mu holding another man's hand, their expressions were more embarrassing than the person involved.

Fang Mu took a closer look, and recognized that this was the young man of the Zeng family, so he said hello.

The man standing in the middle replied hello, then looked at Chao Yan: "Who is this?"

"My fiancé."

With his personal confirmation, the expressions of the three of them changed again.

But in the end it's other people's business, they don't want to talk about it.

The man smiled: "Congratulations."

Fang Mu accepted with a smile: "Thank you."

Seeing that he was not only not ashamed, but also generous, the three of them were embarrassed, and left after saying a few more words.

Fang Mu and Chaoyan didn't take these three people to heart. On the day they decided to hide Brother Chaoyan's identity, they anticipated the problems they would face in the future.

Therefore, the hand held by the two did not let go even after meeting those three people.

The rest of the road was smooth and smooth, and they didn't meet anyone else. The two left the village and walked on the country road.

After leaving the entrance of the village, it is the cultivated land. The vast and wide cultivated land is connected one by one, and is divided into small squares by the ridges. The rice in the fields has grown stronger after being baptized by rain, and it is gratifying to look at.

As far as what the peasant family loves most, it is undoubtedly food. Even if the land is not in Chaoyan, he is happy when he sees the rice growing well.

"Brother Mu, can you carry me?" He suddenly asked Mu.

Fang Mu didn't refuse straight away, but teased and said: "Why? The pretty husband is tired from walking, and you want me, a poor man, to carry it?"

Chaoyan's face flushed red: "Then can you recite it?"

"Back, Qiaofulang will do whatever the poor man says." He let go of Chao Yan's hand, and squatted down in front of him.

With an attitude of absolute obedience.

Chaoyan lay on his back with a blushing face.

Fang Mu lifted the man on his back easily, and firmly wrapped his hands around his legs, making Chaoyan feel more secure.

Chaoyan hooked his neck and whispered in his ear: "When I was a child, my father used to walk in the fields like this."

Fang Mu laughed and said, "You treat me as your father."

Chaoyan pinched his earlobe with her left hand, signaling that he should respect his future father-in-law: "I just miss my father."

Fang Mu stopped talking.

The country road has no end in sight, but if you look far away, you can see the small house at the foot of the mountain.

Although only an outline can be seen, it is their home.

No matter how far this road is, there will be a destination.
