Quick Wear: Crazy Fox Calm Tree

After dinner, Mu Qing and Gui Wang sat in the yard to rest. Looking at the puppets that filled half of the yard, Mu Qing and Gui Wang chatted leisurely.

"Is this enough for this year?" Mu Qing looked at the puppets in the yard curiously. He pulled the arm of a puppet nearby and took a look. It was very flexible and could do most of the movements.

"Well, this is enough. There are some left over from previous years." Gui Wang nodded. Compared to his previous state, he was completely free at this moment.

"How many days are left for the festival this year?" Mu Qing yawned and turned his head to look at Gui Wang who was lying beside him.

"I don't know, but it should be in the next two days." Gui Wang said with his eyes closed. As he spoke, he gently patted Mu Qing, wanting him to go to sleep quickly.

Mu Qing closed his eyes and wanted to sleep, but the heat in the air made it impossible for him to fall asleep.

Mu Qing fanned himself in annoyance. Suddenly he thought of something and sat up from the recliner.

"I still have some watermelon frozen in the well from two days ago. I'll go get it now. Let's have some!"

Gui Wang opened his eyes and nodded.

Mu Qing fished the watermelon out of the well, looked at the juicy big watermelon, and happily took it to the next room.

After cutting the watermelon, Mu Qing and Gui Wang sat in the yard and ate it slowly. Looking at the gray sun in the sky and the rolling heat waves around, Mu Qing took a bite of the watermelon in boredom.

"Why is it so hot recently?" There is no sun, but the temperature is so high that the whole village is like an oven.

Gui Wang's home is usually the coolest place, but it has been so hot these past two days that he even started sweating.

"Because the time has come, otherwise the village would not have prepared for the celebration so quickly." Gui Wang said lightly. Seeing that Mu Qing's forehead was sweating, Gui Wang sprinkled the water beside him on the ground. Sure enough, as soon as the water touched the ground, the whole yard became much cooler.

"Isn't the celebration prepared on schedule?" Mu Qing was a little confused. Although there is no fixed time, it is almost at this time every year.

The only difference is whether or not to send off the Mountain God Bride. However, this year's Mountain God Bride...

"Will there be a bride of the mountain god this year as well?" Mu Qing stared at Gui Wang and asked, his free hand already on Gui Wang's shoulder. If the answer did not satisfy him, Gui Wang would obviously suffer some physical pain.

Gui Wang pulled Mu Qing's hand and interlocked their fingers while explaining.

"There is indeed a Mountain God Bride. It was decided a long time ago, but it's just a formality. She wants to use the identity of the Mountain God Bride to avoid the marriage. If we cancel it now, it will probably be very troublesome."

There are generally two types of mountain god brides: one is to raise one's status and marry into a good family, or the other is to need a mountain god bride, and the other person is the only one who meets the requirements in the whole village, so she is chosen as the bride.

The other type is those who want to live alone without getting married by borrowing the identity of the mountain god bride. For example, this year's bride, Qiao Nanmu, did not want to marry casually, so she took the initiative to choose.

Now if the Mountain God Bride is cancelled, we have to find her a husband. There are only a few young people in the village. Li Ping and Su Tianguo are in love with each other, and the rest are Mu Qing, Zhang Mingming and Mingtian.

How do I choose? It seems like neither of them is suitable.

After hearing what Gui Wang said, Mu Qing figured out what was going on. He nodded and said nothing more.

"As for the celebration, the mountain god celebration is originally to pray for good weather. This year is too dry, so we have to prepare well. Otherwise, the celebrations in previous years would not have been so grand." After Gui Wang finished explaining, Mu Qing had almost finished eating the watermelon. At this moment, the hottest time of the day had passed and the weather was gradually getting cooler.

Feeling the cool breeze in the air, Mu Qing couldn't help feeling a little sleepy.

"How about taking a nap first?" Mu Qing asked, rubbing his eyes.

Gui Wang nodded, and the two of them leaned back in the recliners, holding hands, and soon the sound of steady breathing could be heard.

Mu Qing fell asleep quickly, but Gui Wang, who should have been fast asleep beside him, opened his eyes at this moment, turned his head to look at the waves of heat in the village, with a strange smile on his lips.

Listening to Mu Qing's murmurs beside him, Gui Wang gently stroked Mu Qing's back. Mu Qing soon fell asleep under his comfort.

Looking at Mu Qing's sleeping figure, Gui Wang tightened his arms, hugged Mu Qing tightly in his arms, and then kissed him on the top of his head.

He raised his head, his eyes were filled with unconcealed possessiveness and deep desire. He stroked Mu Qing's hair from time to time, with a faint smile on Gui Wang's lips.

For a while, it seemed that life was peaceful.

Just when Gui Wang was watching happily, a familiar figure suddenly appeared at the door.

The village chief stood cautiously at the door. When he saw Guiwang looking over, he quickly greeted him.

Gui Wang put away the smile on his face and looked at the other person calmly.
