The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Banquets in Anning Village have always been lively. Although many of the Yan family's tables were reserved, the banquet was still well organized.

After the meal starts, the first dishes served are fresh vegetarian dishes, and the main dishes are usually placed at the end to avoid being cleared away as soon as they are served.

Even so, as soon as the meat dishes were placed on the table, the diners started picking up the food with their chopsticks very quickly. There was even a boy who almost got into a fight over a piece of meat.

By mid-afternoon, most of the people who had come to the banquet had left, and only then did the Yan family sit down and have a bite to eat.

The aunties helping in the kitchen were also busy at this time. Some of them were so hungry that they were too lazy to go to the table. They just put the dishes in their bowls and started eating in the kitchen.

Lu Zhubu and his family also wanted to go back, and they took Yan Zhenbei with them to the county school.

While Lu Chengxue and the third sister were chatting, Lu Zhicheng asked Yan Zhenshen about the situation in the mountains.

Some things are hard to say too directly, and Yan Zhenshen didn't ask too many questions. He just explained the general terrain of the deep mountains.

Lu Zhicheng nodded and asked, "Is there a hidden and spacious place?"

Yan Zhenshen frowned. Out of his instinct for danger perception, he felt that he should not answer this question.

But Lu Zhicheng's question showed his trust in him, so he couldn't pretend to be dumb: "There is one place."

There is indeed a place, which is the valley where Chu Xiao dug medicinal herbs. The entrance is narrow and can be blocked by large stone slabs. Entering the valley is a dense forest, which also blocks the scenery inside completely. Further ahead is a flat open space.

Yan Zhenshen had been there several times before, and it was always the old hunter who asked him to go and see if there were any prey in the traps. Unfortunately, there were indeed no big prey in this canyon, but there were quite a few hares and pheasants, and Yan Zhenshen had never returned empty-handed.

However, there were plenty of hares and pheasants everywhere, but they were not enough to support his family. He still needed to hunt large prey, so he rarely went east later.

Lu Zhicheng also knew Yan Zhenshen's concerns and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Yan, your family has done a favor to Cheng Xue, I will never harm you."

Yan Zhenshen hummed. He believed this. "The Beishan house should be completed soon, right?"

"Two months at most." Lu Zhicheng smiled and said, "Brother Yan is an open-minded person. There are some things I can't say, but you can definitely tell the difference."

Yan Zhenshen didn't say anything, but just stared into Lu Zhicheng's eyes. After a while, he nodded: "I believe Brother Lu will have his own plan."

"That's good." Lu Zhicheng smiled: "I can't tell you now, but when things are settled in the future, I will tell you clearly."

Yan Zhenshen just nodded. He actually didn't want to know. Lu Zhicheng was a man who wanted to do great things, while he just wanted to live in a corner, make sure his family had enough food and clothes, and if possible, have a fat baby.

A husband, children and a warm bed are enough.

Now that the beams have been put in place, it won't take long for the house to be completed. Wang Wu drank some wine and walked around the new house, marveling in his heart that the backyard was so big that he could raise as many rabbits as he wanted.

He caught some rabbits last year, and the first offspring have grown into adults. He has sold some of them and earned more than one or two taels of silver. Besides, the rabbits he raises at home are not that rare, so he can kill one every month or two to give to Luo Ge'er as a supplement.

Yan Zhenshen had no plans to raise rabbits, as they were not easy to sell. Sometimes he could not sell all the ten or eight rabbits he hunted in the mountains in one morning, so he had to sell them cheaply to wild food stores.

It would be better to raise some pigs and sheep, which are livestock that can be sold at a high price, but they eat too much.

Relying on his third sister and his mother is a shame as they may not be able to handle the situation.

In the past, his family had nothing and he was the only one supporting the family. However, he still felt that there were a lot of people in his family and he was always tense and dared not relax, for fear that he would not make enough money and his family would starve.

But now that life is good, I feel like there are still not enough people, and it seems like I can’t make any arrangements.

No wonder people say having more children means more blessings.

Although it was a very busy day, everyone had a happy look on their face. Who wouldn't be happy if they could live in a blue brick and tile house in no time?

The wood that has been treated before going up the mountain is already dry and solid, and all that remains is polishing and painting.

Yan Zhenshen couldn't help with these tasks, so Yan Zhennan had to do it himself.

Qiao Qingyun stayed here for two days, and he had to go back to take care of the academy's affairs. Yan Zhennan was very reluctant to let him go, because since the beginning of spring, they had been together less and less.

"How about you stay for two more days?" Yan Zhennan held the man's hand and didn't want him to leave.

Qiao Qingyun pursed his lips and smiled: "There are many children in the academy who are taking the Tongsheng exam this year. When I am done with this, I will find a vacant lot to build a house. This way, if you don't go to the county town in the future, I will come back to accompany you."

This pie is very perfect, and Yan Zhennan also had some yearning for a moment: "Then I will go to the village chief to ask which piece of land is suitable, and then make you a carriage. The carriage must be better looking than the ox cart of my brother."

"Everything is fine." Qiao Qingyun squeezed his hand, with a smile in his indifferent eyes.

When Zhao Guizhi heard that Qiao Qingyun was going back, she hurriedly packed some food for him to take with him.

"I see you like eating pickled bamboo shoots, so take a jar with you. There are also some duck eggs I pickled a few days ago. You can keep them for a few days before eating them. Take these dried bamboo shoots with you, too. The wood ear mushrooms are from last year, so I won't take them from you."

As a dean, Qiao Qingyun would naturally not be short of money. He could buy these things if he wanted to eat them, but he liked the feeling of being remembered by others.

He took it with a smile on his face, "Thank you, Mom. The pickles and salted duck eggs you made are delicious. We don't have many ducks at home. I'll bring some duck eggs next time so we can pickle more."

"That's fine. It's easy to lose appetite in hot weather, so you can indeed pickle more."

Yan Zhennan watched Qiao Qingyun talking to his mother about the meal, with a smile on his face and very sweet words.

And he... was left aside by his wife and mother, as if no one could see him.

Farmers really rarely have time to spare. The new house has not been completely completed, but the wood and bamboo needed for the chicken coop, duck coop, cowshed and pigpen must also be prepared in advance.

Early in the morning, Yan Zhenshen and Chu Xiao went to the mountain to chop wood. Because a lot of trees near their house had been cut down for house construction, the trees in this area looked sparse.

Yan Zhenshen walked a little further up and realized that the trees could not be cut down in one place. Some had to be left so that they could take root and sprout again. New trees would grow in a few years.

But Chu Xiao was too lazy to wait. This piece of mountain was the closest to his home. Not only was it uncomfortable to look at the sparse trees, but would he have to go so far to get firewood in the winter?

Anyway, his special ability is suitable for planting trees. If he doesn't have seeds, he can just let the living tree stumps sprout new buds.

Then let it grow rapidly until it looks like a small tree.

But there was a risk that the tree would grow into a crooked tree if it was forced to grow, so Chu Xiao ruthlessly destroyed the tree and replanted it.

After all, a young tree cannot grow straight without pruning.
