The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Plowing the land with oxen is naturally much faster, but clearing the weeds carefully will take more time.

At noon, Zhao Guizhi came and called out after she had finished cooking, and the four of them led the cow back home.

Cows also need to rest, so at noon they are tied to the wasteland to eat grass, while the calf lies next to the cow, swinging its tail, looking very comfortable.

Yan Sanmei curled her lips: "It's comfortable."

Chu Xiao just smiled as he looked at it: "Next year this land will be its battlefield."

The calf tilted its head and looked at them with its big eyes, mooing twice.

In the afternoon, Zhao Guizhi also came to help clear the weeds, and the two brothers plowed this field and went to the next field.

To plant rice, you must first plow the land and weed, then water it. After watering, you have to plow it again before you can sow seeds and raise seedlings. Once the seedlings are grown, you can start transplanting rice seedlings, which means the spring plowing is over.

After I'm done with this busy period, I'll come over occasionally to check on it, pull some weeds and catch some insects.

The sun was setting, and they had just cleared the weeds on their land. Zhao Guizhi stood up and put the weeds into the backpack: "Your father should have cooked the rice by now. I'll go back and stew the vegetables first."

"Okay." Chu Xiao also stood up and went to clear the weeds in another field before dark, clearing as much as he could.

The other piece of land that the Yan Zhenshen brothers worked on was not big. After plowing, they had cleared nearly half of the weeds. Chu Xiao and Yan Sanmei came over, and the four of them worked together quite quickly.

Before it got completely dark, the few of them went back.

Yan Zhennan and his third sister were running and playing in front, while Yan Zhenshen was walking slowly behind with Niu and Chu Xiao.

"The mountain should have thawed in the past few days. I'll go up the mountain and take a look after I finish the spring ploughing and take a few days off."

As winter turns to spring and everything grows, the wild animals in the mountains are the most active, but also the most dangerous. Many wild beasts have been hungry for a whole winter and are very ferocious.

In fact, most hunters seldom go up the mountain to hunt in spring, as many animals have cubs, so they can only be hunted selectively.

However, Yan Zhenshen has always been accustomed to catching live prey when hunting, so if he comes across a cub, he can catch it and raise it for a while.

"I have to go check on my herbs, too." Chu Xiao didn't take Yan Zhenshen's "I" going up the mountain to check seriously at all.

Yan Zhenshen paused, knowing that he couldn't stop him even if he wanted to, so he smiled helplessly: "Then go and take a look. If it hasn't melted, stay overnight and come down."

Although it is troublesome to go back and forth, the only things that can be picked on the mountain right now are some wild vegetables, which are probably just emerging, and the wild animals are all skinny. There is really no need to stay on the mountain.

Chu Xiao didn't care. He really wanted to go and take a look at those herbs and use his supernatural powers to help them grow better.

Zhao Guizhi made pork, sauerkraut and vermicelli stew in the evening, and also stir-fried some selected wild vegetables.

Although Chu Xiao was extremely greedy when the wild vegetables first came out, he lost interest after eating them for a few days. It must be said that after living a good life for a period of time, even people who have eaten tasteless food for more than 20 years will learn to be picky about food.

Zhao Guizhi also steamed a large bowl of egg custard, and each person scooped a few spoonfuls of it, which tasted delicious when mixed with rice.

Especially since the sauerkraut has been pickled for a whole winter, it is quite flavorful, even too flavorful. Chu Xiao picked up some with chopsticks.

Zhao Guizhi laughed as she watched: "I like to eat vermicelli when there is too much pickled cabbage in winter, but now that the pickled cabbage is almost gone, I like to eat pickled cabbage again."

Chu Xiao did not refute it. After all, this was the truth. The less you have, the more you want to eat.

However, such people are not uncommon, so there is no need to take them too seriously.

After two days of busy work at home, Qiao Qingyun brought Yan Zhenbei back. There were many places doing farm work at the moment, and there were many farmers in the college, so they suspended school for a few days and let him go back to help.

Although Qiao Qingyun had never farmed before, since he was here he couldn't just stand there and watch, so he changed into shorts and followed the farmers to the fields.

He got the hang of it quickly. After two days he could drive the oxen to plow the fields, and from a distance he looked quite competent.

As spring approaches, the seeds that were sown have sprouted in just a few days.

Chu Xiao and Yan Sanmei were out herding cattle and getting some grass to feed the chickens, ducks and rabbits. When they heard from the villagers that bamboo shoots had sprouted, they headed towards the bamboo forest at Nanshan.

The wolf cub and Xiao Hui also ran out this time. Chu Xiao had to keep an eye on it, for fear that it would bare its teeth at others again.

They found an open space next to the bamboo forest, tied the cow up, and asked the wolf cub to watch it before they began looking for bamboo shoots.

However, there were not many bamboo shoots at this time, and they were not the only ones who came to dig bamboo shoots. After walking around for a while, they saw Brother Lin and his aunt next door here.

"Xiao Ge'er, Third Sister." Lin Ge'er tied Xiao Bao to his back and carried him on his back. When he saw them, he smiled and said, "Are you here to dig bamboo shoots too?"

"Come and take a look. Are there many?" Chu Xiao looked at his bamboo basket and there wasn't much.

The aunt next door also came over and said, "We'll just dig a few now to eat for freshness. In another half a month, there should be more."

Chu Xiao nodded and asked casually, "Have you prepared the land at home?"

"Two acres of paddy fields and more than one acre of dry land. I started early, so I didn't delay sowing."

After all, whether at his parents' home or at his first husband's home, he had to work in the fields, so farming was not difficult for him.

The aunt next door also followed suit in praising Lin. She was worried that Brother Lin would not be able to finish his work, so she wanted to wait until her own land was done before going over to help. But who would have thought that Brother Lin was faster than them.

As they were talking, they heard Little Gray barking and the growling of the wolf cubs.

When Chu Xiao heard the noise, he went to take a look outside the bamboo forest, and saw Zhang Yiming running towards him, followed by five or six men, who were obviously chasing him.

Seeing several figures coming out of the woods, all of them were women and young men, Zhang Yiming cursed and quickly changed direction.

As for why he came here, it was because he used to hang around here when he had nothing to do. He was most familiar with this bamboo forest and could confuse these people by walking around in it.

But now there is a young man and a girl here, so he can't go over. After all, the people chasing him are not moral people. It's okay to get beaten, but don't let him lead the sheep into the wolf's mouth.

Brother Lin was not very courageous to begin with, and he had been scared by being beaten by men over the years. Even though he had hit the eldest brother of the Gu family with a carrying pole in the heat of the moment some time ago, he still felt a little scared when he thought about it now.

Although Yan Sanmei was usually a bit aggressive, that was only towards the women in the village. Those who were chasing Zhang Yiming were obviously not from their village, so they subconsciously hid behind.

The wolf cub growled for a long time, and when he saw the other person turned around and ran away, he felt bored and lay down.

But Xiao Hui kept barking. Seeing the people getting farther and farther away, he ran after them and continued barking.

Chu Xiao: “…!!!” After wanting to abandon the wolf cub, he now wanted to abandon a dog.

Why do you join in any fun? Aren’t you afraid that those guys will trample you to death?
