Husband and Father Youwei

After lunch, Ruan Tang was going to go to the mountains to cut firewood. Winter was coming, so he needed to prepare more firewood.First of all, it is naturally for keeping warm in winter, and second, it can also be sold to firewood collectors for some money and silk.Not too much, but better than nothing.The most important thing is that Ruan Tang doesn't need to hand over the money to Father Tu and Li Shi, but can keep it for himself, and if something happens in the future, it can also be used as an emergency.

When talking about money, Ruan Tang suddenly thought of something. He ran back to the room, took out a cloth bag from the pillow at the head of the bed, handed it to Tu Lin, and said, "This was given to me when my eldest sister came. Originally there were 150 Wen, but in May, Xiao An twisted his foot and showed him that the doctor sold medicine and spent 110 Wen, and then two days ago you developed a high fever, and your parents said that you can cure it with local methods, I... ...I was a little worried, so I went to the doctor, bought two doses of medicine and spent [-] yuan, these are leftovers, although there are not many...you take it. "

In Tu Lin's memory, there were some pictures of the original elder sister visiting him and giving Ruan Tang money, so he was not surprised.Seeing that Ruan Tang wanted to hand over all the money to him at this time, Tu Lin thought for a while, and took the cloth bag without saying no to Ruan Tang.

He didn't intend to pick it up at first, and wanted to let Ruan Tang keep it, but although he had only known Ruan Tang for a few hours, he had a feeling that Ruan Tang might not go along with this matter. He compromised himself, so he didn't say much, but after taking the cloth bag, he turned around and stuffed the bag back into the pillow where Ruan Tang hid the cloth bag before.

Seeing this, Ruan Tang opened his mouth and was about to say something else, but Tu Lin turned around and smiled at him, "Okay, aren't you going to chop firewood? I'll go with you."

Hearing what Tu Lin said, Ruan Tang immediately ignored the cloth bag, frowned slightly and said to Tu Lin in disapproval: "You are just right, you should rest at home, what if you get tired again, or catch a cold?"

But Tu Lin didn't listen to him, he just said: "It's okay, I'm much better now, going out for a walk is also good for my body, I will pay attention not to let myself get tired and cold, don't worry." Together out of the house.

Ruan Tang had no choice but to go back to the house and find a coat for Tu Lin to put on before agreeing that he would go into the mountain with him.Tu An didn't follow, he was weak-boned, and it would be bad if he accidentally broke the mountain road. Ruan Tang didn't intend to take him into the mountain, and Tu An didn't want to, because he still had to watch himself baby herb.

Those medicinal herbs were brought back by Ruan Tang every time he went to the mountains to cut firewood or collect mountain products. Although there were not many of them, they could be sold for a few copper coins after a few days.It's just that pharmacies don't like to accept fresh herbs, and the price is extremely low, which is not as good as the ones that have been dried and processed.

Because Ruan Tang usually has too much work to do, it is difficult to devote his energy to the medicinal herbs, so he taught Tu An the method of concocting and let him handle it. He kept it by himself, so Tu An paid great attention to these herbs.

Instructing Tu An to take good care of the house and not to go to other places, Tu Lin and Ruan Tang went to the forest to the west of the village.After entering the forest, Ruan Tang didn't start cutting firewood immediately, but went to a place with a purpose, and Tu Lin naturally walked with him.

After passing through a bush, Tu Lin suddenly heard a gurgling and chirping sound from the grass in front of him. Before he could figure out what it was, he saw Ruan Tang beside him with a happy expression on his face, pushing away the miscellaneous things in front of him. The grass ran to where the sound came from.

Ruan Tang hurriedly followed, but he was only a few meters away, only a few steps away, and then he realized that it was a pheasant that made the sound, and Ruan Tang was holding the neck of the pheasant, squatting down to untangle it carefully Twine on a pheasant leg.

This pheasant may have only been entangled by the hemp rope not long ago, and it is still very energetic. When Ruan Tang untied the rope, it screamed and fluttered its wings, causing its feathers to fly around, which also caused some inconvenience to Ruan Tang.

Seeing this, without asking Tu Lin, he knew that this was a trap set by Ruan Tang, so he hurried forward to help catch the pheasant, and said: "I didn't expect you to use the trap to catch the pheasant, it's amazing."

Tu Lin's praise made Ruan Tang a little embarrassed. Seeing that the pheasant was caught by Tu Lin, he let go of the hand that was holding the chicken's neck, and went to untie the rope with both hands, while answering Tu Lin in a low voice. : "My father is a hunter, he taught me all these things, and I can only set a trap." And it is not always possible to catch the prey, more often not only the prey will not be seen, even the cap will be damaged, So there's really nothing to praise.

Just as he was talking, the rope in his hand was quickly untied. Looking at the pheasant in Tu Lin's hand, Ruan Tang was very happy, and said: "Today, I was lucky, and I caught such a big pheasant. It’s just stewed, I’ll make you stronger.” Although Tu Lin is no longer stupid, Ruan Tang still puts Tu Lin first.

He just said the words, met Shangtu Lin Qingming's energetic eyes, he suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly continued: "Why don't you give it to your parents, and then you can eat it together as a family."

Since Ruan Tang and Tu Lin and Tu An moved to the old house, he started to set up tricks in the woods. It is only ten days and a half months, and it is hard to get anything. Sometimes it is rare, and he never went to Tu's house. I took it, but only the three of them ate it.

It's not that he's not filial, it's just that the Tu family doesn't take Tu Lin and Tu An seriously, and Tu Lin and Tu An have never had a share in any delicious food at home, and he can't grab it hard, so he can only rely on Under the covers, he caught some pheasants, hares and the like, and occasionally fed the father and son.

Just now he subconsciously said what was in his heart, and after he finished speaking, he remembered that Tu Lin was sober now, and he knew from his elder sister Tu Xinmei that Tu Lin was very filial to Tu's father Li, and was also very good to his younger siblings. It's something precious, but it's also rare. According to Tu Lin's original temperament, how could he eat alone regardless of his parents and siblings, so he came up with the last sentence.

Tu Lin more or less guessed Ruan Tang's thoughts, but let's not say that this was caught by Ruan Tang, he is not qualified to deal with it, and even if he caught it himself, he would not send it to the Tu family. , because it's not worth it, so he smiled, and then said to Ruan Tang: "No, let's keep it for ourselves, you have to eat some good supplements after working so hard every day, as for the parents, they don't want to come. Only chicken to eat."

Although the Tu family is just a farmer's family in the countryside, in addition to the [-] mu of land among the three families, Tu's father is also a bamboo craftsman with a good handicraft, and can make money all year round, so the Tu family is not considered a wealthy family. , but you don’t have to worry about eating and drinking, and you can also eat meat from time to time. It is already one of the few people in the village, and there is no shortage of this pheasant.

Ruan Tang didn't want to send the pheasant to Tu's family, so Tu Lin had no objection to what he said.Afterwards, Ruan Tang took Tu Lin to the other two places that had been covered, but nothing was caught in the two places, and one of them was still damaged.Ruan Tang was not too disappointed because he had already been mentally prepared, and he already had a pheasant today. After restoring the cover, he started chopping firewood.

Tu Lin didn't listen to Ruan Tang's dissuasion to go home, but helped out with the pheasant while chatting with Ruan Tang. Mostly Tu Lin was asking, and Ruan Tang answered, and it was different from when Tu Lin just woke up in the morning. Most of what Tu Lin asked this time was about Ruan Tang.

Only then did Tu Lin know that Ruan Tang's parents were not his biological parents, but adoptive parents.He was abandoned on the side of the road when he was five years old, and was later discovered by a young couple who happened to pass by.This young couple was Ruan Tang's adoptive parents. Because they had no children and felt that Ruan Tang was destined for them, they adopted him. They didn't dislike him as a twin, and raised him as if they were their own flesh and blood.

Hearing this, Tu Lin was a little silent.According to Ruan Tang, although he is an adopted son, he is also an only son, and although there are many Shuang'er married in the countryside, there are still some wives, so how could Ruan Tang choose to marry in the end? a fool?

Although Tu Lin wanted to find out the reason for this, after all, it was very important and related to his relationship with Ruan Tang in the future, but he was also worried that if something bad happened, then at this time, he would ask about Ruan Tang's relationship. It should be no less than reopening his wound, so he couldn't bear to speak.

Thinking that Ruan Tang and his sister Tu Xinmei's husband's family belonged to the same village, and that Ruan Tang's marriage into Tu's family was also arranged by Tu Xinmei. He would see Tu Xinmei sooner or later, so let's ask these questions at that time.

After thinking about it, Tu Lin temporarily put aside the matter, and turned to talk to Ruan Tang about something else.

"Burning charcoal? Do you know how to burn charcoal?" Ruan Tang turned to look at Tu Lin in surprise. He really didn't expect that. After all, Tu Xinmei had never told him, and he had never seen Tu's family do it. What charcoal business.

"Well, I once helped a foreigner by accident. He wanted to repay me, but he didn't have any money, so he told me the method of burning charcoal passed down in his family. His home is quite far from us, so Don't worry that I'll take his job if I learn it." Tu Lin looked at Ruan Tang and explained with a very natural expression.

Of course he is lying, he has not been in this world for more than three hours, he has met Ruan Tang and Tu An besides himself, where to find some foreigners, this is just made up by him for Ruan Tang Yes, but the real reason cannot be told to Ruan Tang, at least not now.
