The place where Fang Mu grows vegetables is on the other side of the mountain pass. This land has been planted before. Fang Mu just added some soil on the ridge, dug a deeper ditch and then planted it. I didn't have time to take care of it, and it was all withered, and now I can still see the wilted rhizomes.

However, the two of them cleared it from the inside out, and this one will probably have to wait until tomorrow.

Chaoyan carried a basket of wild vegetables back to the house first, and then came out to continue working.

He shovels with a hoe, while the square logs are cut with a sickle.

Occasionally, he saw a man who was earnestly mowing the lawn. Zhao Yan didn't know what he looked like when he was working outside, but Fang Mu who was doing farm work was not less handsome.

Fang Mu works carefully, giving people a feeling that what he is facing is not a pile of grass, but food.

His serious expression made Chao Yan think that even if this man was mowing the grass, he was still pretty.

For just such an instant, Chaoyan felt that it was not a loss for her to follow him.

Fang Mu didn't know that Chaoyan was distracted and thinking of some messy things.

He has lived alone for so many years, so he is naturally not a person who steals, rapes and plays tricks. Even if he is poor, he is still innocent. The weeds in the field are competing with each other. I'm afraid it's not just that the grass is an eyesore to him, but the grass also finds him annoying.

The sun gradually rose, and it was noon in a blink of an eye.

Even wearing a straw hat, Fang Mu couldn't stop the profuse sweat. Fang Mu still remembered that Zhao Yan had just passed out yesterday, and worried that he would suffer from heatstroke, so he put away the sickle, stood up straight with his sore waist, and said: " Go back and rest first, and come back in the afternoon."

Chaoyan looked around, the two of them were mowing and shoveling, the wasteland was almost half empty in one morning, and the grass could be cleared by tomorrow morning at the latest.

"it is good."

Fang Mu took the lead to go back first.

Chao Yan followed behind him, the door of the house was in front, and it was only a few steps away. The two of them sat down to rest first.

Fang Mu took off the straw hat and fanned himself: "Or drink porridge?"

"I also can."

"Then let's cook, steam some water eggs, didn't you also pick wild vegetables and cook soup, I think the outside can be cleaned up tomorrow, I will go to the town to buy some meat tomorrow morning, and I will eat it today. "

Chao Yan thought he was spending money for himself, so she said, "You don't have to accommodate me, I'm not picky."

Fang Mu said with a smile, "That's why I should treat you better. With what you can do, you can go to the martial arts exam. I'm so wronged."

"It's just that Kong has brute force. I can't think of a martial arts champion." After finishing speaking, Chaoyan added solemnly: "And I don't feel wronged. You are very good. It is my good fortune to know you."

Looking at Chaoyan who explained to him word by word, Fang Mu's heart was shaken, this person was just sure of himself just because he took him in, and he didn't know whether to call him stupid or what.

But if you want to say that he is stupid, this man is also smart, relying on his divine power, he traveled from Changyuan to Xishui Village by himself. Now that he thinks about it, the dirt on his face yesterday might really be a disguise.

He is a brave and resourceful brother.

If he had a better background, he might really be able to take the martial arts exam.

How could it be missed by him.

But these thoughts just passed through Fang Mu's mind: "I'm going to cook, you will wash the dishes later."

Chao Yan nodded.

Fang Mu cooked the rice first, and then took three eggs, added water and steamed them.

Ten eggs were added last night and six are gone today. According to the time when he was alone, these would be enough for him to eat for a few days, but now it is no different than in the past. One more mouth will naturally consume more. Not only will he have to buy some meat tomorrow, Eggs and noodles need to be replenished. The days when he goes out are usually not fixed, and Chaoyan is penniless. If he is to be left at home alone for half a month, he still needs to prepare some supplies.

The wild vegetables have to be blanched to remove the bitter taste, and there is nothing else at home, so I just made a pure wild vegetable soup.

One soup and one egg were served on the table, paired with brown rice, and the two of them ate with relish.

After having lunch and resting for a while, the two of them washed up with water and went to bed to rest.

Weeding is still done in the afternoon.

When the sun was about to set, the two went back to cook porridge for dinner.

Tonight is white porridge with fried sweet potatoes.

After finishing dinner, the two of them took a simple bath as they did yesterday.

Later, when Fang Mu lay on the bed and was about to rest, he heard Chaoyan say in the dark: "Brother Mu, I want to set up a tomb for my parents."

Chang Yuan came here for nearly three hundred miles. If Chao Yan really followed him, it would be inconvenient to go back to worship in the future. He still didn't know that Chao Yan's parents didn't even leave a body behind, so he just compared his heart: "Okay, tomorrow we will have a funeral." Bring you some incense paper candles?"

How dare Chao Yan ask him to spend again: "No need, I want to pick a good day."

Fang Mu hummed: "Go to sleep."

The man's steady voice came from the dark night, driving away the sudden sadness of Chaoyan.

If the father and mother are alive in the sky, they will be relieved to see him following such a person.

Chao Yan lifted the quilt, covered her body and closed her eyes to sleep.

.....................

In the early morning of the next day, Fang Mu woke up when Chaoyan was just moving. This time he didn't stay in bed, but got up, dressed, tied his hair, brushed his teeth and washed his face.

Knowing that he was going to the town, Chao Yan hurriedly steamed some sweet potatoes for his belly.

Fang Mu is very helpful to him for his thoughtfulness, otherwise he would have to go to the town to spend money to solve it, so it is better to save a little.

Fang Mu saw that there were as many morning faces steamed as yesterday, thought of the stock at home, and said, "I'll go to my elder brother's house to get some when I get back from town."

The two of them eat three meals a day, and the amount of food consumed cannot be compared, but rural people are already short of food, so it is not a problem to always get it from Fang Lin: "I will remember it, and I will return it to my elder brother in the future."

Fang Mu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "No need, I haven't eaten much by myself in these years, and I have saved a lot of food with my elder brother, and these are all my own."

He has three or four loads of grain a year. Originally, he and Fang Lin had agreed on a load of rice per acre. Fang Lin worried that he would not have enough to eat, so he gave him an extra load. But Fang Mu spent half of the year outside. Naturally, there was still some left over from these three or four loads of food. He was not at home often, and he was afraid of being missed by thieves. Firstly, it was because he was worried that his sister-in-law would be a demon, and secondly, it was convenient for extraction.

It was only then that Chaoyan remembered that he was living on rent collection, so she casually asked, "You rented out a lot of land?"

Fang Mu shook his head and said: "I only have three acres of paddy fields, all of which are owned by my elder brother, and I have rented out one acre of dry land to others to grow peanuts and beans. When I have free time in the future, I will take you for a walk in the village and get to know each other." people."

If the two really live together, Chaoyan will inevitably have to integrate into Xishui Village.

Fang Mu's current focus is still to go out. It is also good for Chaoyan to build a good relationship with the people in the village. When he is not at home on weekdays, Chaoyan can take care of him when he has something to do.

Chaoyan thoughtfully said: "Don't worry, we'll talk about it after you finish your work."

Fang Mu didn't speak any more, and settled for breakfast seriously.

After eating two or three sweet potatoes, Fang Mu took a mouthful of cool water, washed and filled his water bag, and threw it into the back basket before putting on his straw hat and preparing to set off.

Before he went out, he told Chao Yan: "I will come back earlier, if it's too hot, don't stay in the field all the time, go back to the house to rest."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Fang Mu is young, so it is impossible not to have the dream of raising eyebrows. Although the beautiful girl in the dream has become a young man, but the other half is so good, Fang Mu is still willing to spoil him: "I will bring you delicious food when I come back."

Chao Yan who was suddenly coaxed: "..."

He looked at the back of the man, and he realized that he was the other half of Fang Mu quickly.

It was so natural to accept it.

Chaoyan thought back on the two of them getting along with each other in the past few days, and had to say that it was very comfortable to stay with Fang Mu. From the beginning of the meeting, Fang Mu would always ask for his opinion, even if it was a small matter like cooking. It is easy to panic and feel uneasy, but the fact is that because of Fang Mu's intentions, he almost forgot that the two had just met.

Obviously he should behave more to make Fang Mu like him.

But how to make a man fall in love with her... Asking herself, Chaoyan has no idea.

His parents are both honest people, they never taught him to serve others with color, if you want to talk about color... he doesn't seem to have it either?

He is neither soft nor glamorous like a woman.

Chaoyan looked at her body, and finally gave up the idea of ​​seduction.

He's still working hard elsewhere.

Chaoyan put away her messy thoughts, went back to the house to get the tools and continued weeding.

.........

Xishui Village belongs to Qingyuan Town, both of which are under the jurisdiction of Pingnan County, and Qingyuan Town has always been very prosperous because of the water and land connections.

On the whole, Qingyuan Town is roughly divided into four parts, that is, east, west, north, south.

Among them, Nanshi is the most prosperous.

There are several roads from Xishui Village to Qingyuan Town. The closest one is the mountain road where Chaoyan was picked up a few days ago. Although it is difficult to walk, it is just over Changling Mountain. Fang Mu usually takes this road.

After crossing the mountain road and walking a few hundred feet, you will arrive at Nanshi Street, Qingyuan Town.

When Fang Mu entered Nanshi, it was like a fish entering the sea. It took him less than half an hour to cross Changling Mountain and arrive at Qingyuan Town. Because he left early, it was only the beginning of the hour.

As a gathering point for trade, Nanshi is also the place with the largest flow of people in Qingyuan Town.

Rushing each other on the street, Fang Mu stepped on the footsteps of pedestrians across the stone bridge and entered the market.

This one sells more miscellaneous and complete items.

The author has something to say:

According to the information searched by Baidu, people in the Qin and Han Dynasties and before only ate two meals a day, breakfast and dinner, and the "two-meal system" was popular; the concept of lunch only appeared in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but because of low productivity, two meals were generally used here. The three meals are also in line with historical facts (if the information is correct)
