Fang Mu went out a little late today, and it is easy to sleep under the covers when the weather is cold. Besides, his husband was pregnant, so he couldn't help but dawdled for a while before getting up in the morning.

If he wanted to go back to have dinner with Chao Yan, he couldn't stay in the county for long, he only stayed in the tailor shop for half an hour, Fang Mu bid farewell to Li Yao and his wife and went back to Qingyuan Town by bullock cart.

The autumn wind was solemn, and Fang Mu sat in the bullock cart and endured the cold wind blowing by.

After finally wandering back to Qingyuan Town, Fang Mu paid the fare and plunged into the town. He still wanted to buy pig's knuckles. Chao Yan said last night that he wanted to eat, and Fang Mu silently remembered it.

I bought a pig’s foot from Butcher Zhang and asked him to chop it up. Fang Mu then threw it into his back basket and carried it back to Xishui Village on the mountain road.

When we arrived at Xishui Village, the whole morning passed like this.

As soon as Fang Mu stepped into the wasteland, he ran towards the smell.

The advantage of keeping a dog is not only to watch the house, but also to watch it wagging its head and wagging its tail for joy.

Fang Mu patted its dog's head, and walked home without stopping.

Chaoyan knew that he would come back for lunch, which was agreed between the two of them, so that Fang Mu would not eat his fill first or not prepare his portion when Fang Mu came back.

Today's lunch is mixed noodles, Chaoyan boiled the meat sauce, and he also counted the time, when Fang Mu entered the room, he had just taken the cooked noodles out of the pot.

Fang Mu's figure just walked past the window, Zhao Yan noticed it, and when Fang Mu entered the room, he said, "I'm back."

Fang Mu hummed, untied the basket, took out the pig's feet wrapped in banana leaves, and put them into the vegetable basket.

Wrapped tightly, Chaoyan didn't see what it was, and asked, "What is this?"

"Pig feet." Fang Mu said, "You don't want to eat them."

Chaoyan was stunned for a moment, although he knew that Brother Mu loved him, but when the other party remembered what he said casually and took action, he realized that loving someone is so simple, don't look at what he said, you have to look what he did.

Chaoyan seemed to have thousands of words in her heart for a while, but in the end they all turned into one sentence: "Thank you."

Fang Mu lowered his head and kissed him, and said with a smile, "Why are you being so polite?"

Feeling the temperature of his lips, Chao Yan said, "I'm happy in my heart."

"I just made you happy, do you want to braise or stew?"

"Braise it, put some peanuts together."

The peanuts at home were the unfinished ones that were traded with the villagers when Chaoyan sold boar pork last time. Fang Mu hummed and said, "Eat first."

Chao Yan nodded, divided the mixed noodles into two bowls, and served them on the table.

The two sat facing each other, Chaoyan asked him, "Is sister Yao okay?"

Fang Mu took a sip of the sauce-covered noodles, chewed and swallowed, and then said: "It's good, there are brother-in-law and Xiao He in the shop, she can come over here."

"That's good."

Fang Mu picked another chopstick noodle, put it in front of his mouth and said, "I'll chop wood with you in the afternoon."

"it is good."

He will go out again in a few days, and Chaoyan naturally wants to spend more time with him, and since he won't be able to see each other for another half a month, it must be just a little longer.

The family rule is that Chao Yan cooks and Fang Mu washes the dishes. After washing, Fang Mu goes to wash up again, while Chao Yan has already finished first and is lying on the bed.

His coat was placed at the end of the bed, Fang Mu threw off the quilt and lay down, and rolled into his arms a warm person who was only wearing underwear and underwear.

The two of them like to cuddle together in summer, let alone when the weather is cold now.

It is also cool at noon in late autumn, and you have to cover yourself with a quilt for a nap, otherwise you will catch cold easily.

When the two of you squeezed me and I squeezed you, Fang Mu's feet touched Chaoyan's, and he couldn't help but think that his face was good and his hands and feet were warm, otherwise he would have worried that Chaoyan would suffer in winter.

The two hugged each other and didn't do anything, as if they just needed to rely on each other.

They didn't even chat, and Chaoyan fell asleep leaning against him in his arms.

Fang Mu lifted the quilt up a little to cover Chao Yan's shoulders, and then closed his eyes for a nap.

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

As soon as they woke up, they put on their clothes and went to work in the field.

There is no saw at home, so firewood is all chopped.

Fangmu cut it with a hatchet, and Chaoyan split it with an axe. It was all hard work, but the two chatted without saying a word, and they didn't feel tired.

But the palms are still numb.

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

It was late in the last ten days when Qiao Song came to inform him, and Fang Mu and Chao Yan had already split half of the pile of firewood.

This time, Qiao Song was delayed due to family affairs. Originally, the people who came to notify in the morning delayed until the afternoon.

At this time, Fang Mu and Chao Yan were chopping firewood behind the house.

Qiao Song walked over directly when he heard the voice.

Seeing him coming, Fang Mu stopped what he was doing, put the hatchet aside and led the man into the house for a cup of hot water.

Qiao Song asked Chao Yan how she was, and then followed Fang Mu into the house.

Fang Mu washed his hands, poured out a bowl of warm water that had just been flushed into the ceramic pot at noon, and brought it to Qiao Song.

Farmers generally don't let the pot keep burning to boil water, which consumes firewood, and there is no such condition, not to mention the time is not allowed.

People are almost always busy with food and clothing, running around for this goal, why would they want to drink hot tea, warm water is not bad.

So drinking from a bowl is not a faux pas.

Fang Mu brought the water to Qiao Song, and asked him by the way, "Where are you going this time?"

Qiao Song took a sip and said, "It's the last time, why worry?"

Fang Mu sat down opposite him, took a sip of warm water and said leisurely, "To be honest, I feel a little bit reluctant to quit suddenly after working for five years."

"Then keep going." Qiao Song said smoothly.

"It's a matter of time before we leave."

This is reasonable, in Fang Mu's current situation, it is estimated that the delay will not last long.

"Let me tell you, the location this time is destined for you." Qiao Song said mysteriously.

"how?"

"This time I went far away." Qiao Song patted the table and said, "Isn't brother-in-law from Changyuan? You can take him back to have a look."

Fang Mu didn't expect such a coincidence that the last time he went to the business was Chang Yuan, but he thought of the hell on earth he saw half a year ago: "I'll ask him."

"I've asked. When all the villages affected by the disaster have been moved away, if my brother-in-law wants to go back to the old place, I have to ask."

Changyuan is the county seat. When the flood hit in the first half of the year, several villages it belonged to were flooded and flooded. The relatives defected, and did not have the courage to become bandits, so they followed the Yamen and moved to other places to rebuild their homes.

"Let's talk about it later." Fang Mu had a bad feeling in his heart, he didn't want Chaoyan to return to Changyuan.

Qiao Song passed the words, thinking about the other person, and sat down for a while: "Come on, I'll wait for you at the same place tomorrow, I'm going to find Yuanyuan, you're busy."

After he finished speaking, he got up and left, leaving Fang Mu who was still thinking.

Fang Mu sat in the room for a while, then poured a bowl of warm water out of the bowl he drank, and gave it to Chaoyan to drink.

Chaoyan, who was chopping firewood, recognized his footsteps, heard him coming, and asked, "Brother Qiao is gone?"

Fang Mu said: "I'm going to find Huiyuan, drink some water."

Chaoyan put down the axe, straightened up and took the warm water to drink.

Fang Mu waited for him to finish drinking before saying: "Yanyan, this time I am going to Changyuan."

Chaoyan's eyelashes froze, and he raised his head to look at Fang Mu.

Fang Mu looked into his eyes and asked softly, "Do you want to go back?"

Chao Yan didn't speak, but looked back at him, and silence spread between the two.

What did Chaoyan think?If it is impossible not to go back, it is the home he has lived in for 18 years after all, so what if he goes back?Chang Yuan is still Chang Yuan, but not Chang Yuan in his heart.

His parents were gone, he couldn't even bury their remains, and the people he was acquainted with died and walked away, even if he looked for them, he couldn't go back to the beginning.

You may be delighted to meet, but after the joy, you will be sad or disappointed.

Chaoyan understood all the truth, and his thoughts were caught in a tug.

This made him feel depressed all of a sudden, and his longing for his hometown even permeated Fang Mu's leaving home.

Fang Mu kept observing his expression, not missing the flash of pain in his eyes, and his heart began to ache.

But he was waiting for Asagao's answer.

After a long time, Chaoyan said: "I won't go back, there are so many things at home, I can't leave."

Fang Mu's hanging heart suddenly fell to the ground, as if being pulled extremely by someone, the insecurity just now disappeared with his words.

He was not afraid of Chaoyan running away, but he was afraid that he would think about others when he saw things, especially Chang Yuan who was devastated. He was worried that Chaoyan's return would just be another pain.

He knew that Chaoyan hadn't let go yet, it was his hometown, how could he just throw it away.

But Fang Mu can't do anything, if Chaoyan says he wants to go back, then he will take care of everything and bring Chaoyan back, no matter what, Fang Mu must let him understand that he will accompany him in everything.

He had no choice but to divert Chaoyan's attention: "I often stay away from Xishui Village, and I can come back at the beginning of the month."

Chaoyan hummed, knowing Fang Mu's kindness, he didn't want to think about it anymore, and handed the bowl to Fang Mu: "Go to work."

Even if he didn't want to think about the mood, he didn't recover from the news he heard suddenly. Fang Mu knew that he would not have reacted like this in the past, but Fang Mu didn't say anything. He knew that Chao Yan was sad, but besides being with him There is no other way.

Qiao Song didn't know exactly what he had experienced, so he could calmly say that he would go back and have a look, while Fang Mu asked this because he couldn't hide the fact that he went to Changyuan for business. Yan made his own choice.

Maybe it's because Zhao Yan is not ready to go back now, or he knows it's useless to go back.

I chose to suppress it.

Chaoyan didn't want to talk, Fang Mu also fell silent, put the bowl aside, picked up the hatchet again and continued chopping wood.

I hope that bang bang bang voice can bring Chao Yan back to this world.

Chaoyan's low mood lasted for a long time, and she didn't recover until dinner at night.

It was he who said to Fangmu first: "Brother Mu, can you accompany me back in the future?"

As the candle flames flickered, Zhong Fangmu didn't say a word, but just nodded with firm eyes.

Chaoyan was relieved at once, Chang Yuan's home is gone, but now he has a home with Fang Mu: "I know it's useless to go back, but I just want to take a look at it in my heart, and now I don't have the courage to wait. A few years, a few years will be fine."

Fang Mu raised his hand to shake his hand: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Chaoyan nodded, her eyes lowered, covering the tears that were about to fall.

Fang Mu clenched his hand and accompanied him with a wordless voice.

...........

This time he walked close to Shang, but couldn't bear the weather getting colder and colder, so Chao Yan still prepared a thick coat for him to protect him from the wind and frost, so as not to get sick on the way.

It was cold, and Fang Mu didn't want him to get up to see him off, so he pressed him under the blanket and kissed him for a while before letting him go: "Don't see him off, you'll catch a cold later, take care of yourself at home, and wait for me to come back."

Chao Yan held one of his fingers and hummed.

Fang Mu kissed his forehead again, then got up to carry the burden on his back, lit the lantern and went out.

The autumn wind was blowing outside the house, and the lantern was shaken. Fang Mu closed the door, and drove Ang Ang who followed him home to guard Yan Yan, and then entered the mountain road.
