After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal
Chapter 42: Not my brother, but my aunt
So the two of them put the dustpan and hatchet together, then sat down next to the bamboo basket with the hoe.
Xia Mo took off the lid of the bamboo basket, handed Ling Chuan the bowl he had used before, and gave him a pair of chopsticks. He also used the one he had just used, then picked up the pancakes from the big bowl and devoured them.
The sweet and delicious pancakes were both delicious and filling. There were eleven in the bowl. Xia Mo ate four in one go and felt full. He left the rest for Ling Chuan. After all, he was tall and strong, and he was the one who worked really hard.
"Eat another one." Ling Chuan looked at the two pancakes in the big bowl and said to the boy.
Xia Mo shook his head and poured himself half a bowl of water, "I'm full, Brother Ling, you eat." If you can't eat it, just take it back.
Seeing this, Ling Chuan didn't force him. After all, based on the boy's appetite, he was almost full after eating four pancakes, so after finishing the one in the bowl, he picked up another one and started eating.
Xia Mo tilted his head back to drink some water to moisten his throat. After just two sips, he caught a glimpse of a young man coming out of the cornfield across the field, staring at the pancake in Ling Chuan's hand with timid and eager eyes.
Xia Mo raised his eyebrows and put down the bowl.
Before he could say anything, the other party seemed to have realized that he was being noticed and went back inside.
Xia Mo shook his head in amusement. Whose child is this? Just when he thought the other party would not show up again, the child came out again.
However, this time the other party did not come out completely. Instead, he held on to the corn stalks and watched secretly, which was a bit like trying to cover up one's ears and steal a bell.
Ling Chuan was sitting next to Xia Mo, so it was impossible for him not to see the sneaky little figure, so he said: "That's Lu Bo's grandson, Brother Yi."
"Ah, so he is Uncle Lu's grandson." When Uncle Lu was mentioned, Xia Mo thought of the dark and kind old man, so he turned to Ling Chuan, "Brother Ling, are you full?"
If you are full, you can let Brother Yi eat the remaining pancake. Brother Ze has also eaten Uncle Lu’s food before.
Ling Chuan nodded, "I'm full."
"Oh, then this pancake...can I share it with him?" Xia Mo asked.
"Okay." Ling Chuan said with a frown.
He didn't like the little brother asking him this. Was he afraid that he wouldn't agree? Or was it something else? But no matter what the reason was, he really didn't like it. It made him feel that there was an unignorable gap between him and the little brother.
Ling Chuan stared in thought, not knowing that his expression caused Xia Mo to misunderstand him instantly. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Well... forget it." After that, he took a sip of water to hide his embarrassment.
Hearing this, Ling Chuan stared at the young man with a piercing gaze, making him feel uncomfortable. He pretended to drink some water before speaking softly, "Ze'er, I once said that you and I are husband and wife, and there is no need to separate so clearly."
After hearing this, Xia Mo paused holding the bowl. He lowered his eyebrows, and the light under his curled eyelashes flickered slightly. So this is what he meant. Then didn't he just...
"Hmm?" Ling Chuan didn't allow the young man to treat him perfunctorily as usual.
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Xia Mo could only bite the bullet and look at the other person, smiling extremely flatteringly, "Haha, I am narrow-minded, Brother Ling, don't take it to heart."
Ling Chuan looked at him twice before looking away, "No, go give him the pancake."
"Okay!" Xia Moru, as if he had received a special pardon, picked up the bowl in the vegetable basket and walked quickly towards Yi Ge'er, as if there was a ferocious wolf chasing him from behind.
Yi Ge'er, who was hiding at one end, saw Xia Mo walking towards him with a big bowl in his hand. He moved his feet, wanting to leave but not wanting to.
While he was hesitating, Xia Mo had already walked up to him, bent down, looked at him and called out: "Brother Yi, come and have a pancake."
Lu Yi knew Ze Ge'er. His grandfather always told him that he was a poor kid. Until a while ago, his grandfather changed his tone and the sigh he had always said turned into that he was a blessed child.
"Brother Yi, don't you recognize me? I am..."
Xia Mo thought he had frightened the child. Just as he was about to explain, the child let go of the corn leaf that was covering his face, revealing his entire face, and said in a soft voice: "I know you, you are Brother Ze."
Xia Mo smiled happily when he heard that. He squatted down and said, "Just remember it. Here, this is for you. Take it quickly. Brother still has to go back to work."
Lu Yi looked at the pancake in the bowl, swallowed his saliva, and looked at Xia Mo, who stretched the bowl in front of him and urged: "Hurry up, you are still so polite to your brother, I am going to be angry."
"Thank you." Lu Yi thanked him before reaching out and grabbing the pancake.
After he took it, Xia Mo rubbed his little head, smiled and said, "Brother is leaving first", then turned and went back to Ling Chuan. Yi Ge'er stood there and looked at him for a while before he covered the pancake and went back into the cornfield.
"Brother Ling, let's go and start clearing the next piece of land." Xia Mo said as he put the big bowl into the bamboo basket.
"Yeah." Ling Chuan pursed his lips and stared at his back for a long time before responding muffledly. However, Xia Daha, who was too happy, didn't notice at all.
So they packed up their farm tools and went to the smaller field.
This piece of land did not need to be mowed with a hatchet as before, so after the two put their things away, they began to use hoes to clear the weeds...
"Ze'er, Lingchuan."
Just as the two men lowered their heads to work, an old and loud voice sounded from behind them.
Hearing the familiar voices, Xia Mo turned around and saw that it was Uncle Lu and Brother Yi.
Seeing the amiable face, Xia Mo smiled and said, "It's Uncle Lu. I haven't seen him for a few days, but Uncle Lu is still in high spirits."
Upon hearing this, Lu Bo smiled and said, "I'm here for nothing. I just want to pick up these corn cobs for you to take back and cook." As he said that, he put the corn in his hand into the dustpan, and Yi Ge'er followed suit and put the corn in his hand as well.
It was at this time that Xia Mo discovered that the other party was holding corn in his hand. After thinking about it, he instantly understood why the other party had specially given them corn.
Just because he gave Brother Yi a pancake, the other party actually gave them a few plump corns in return. Xia Mo felt that Uncle Lu was really simple and kind, but they couldn't take this thing, so he said: "Uncle Lu, no need, you can keep the corn for yourselves."
Ling Chuan nodded in agreement, "Lu Bo, you should take it back."
However, Lu Bo waved his hand and said, "There's still plenty of corn in my field. I'll give it to you two to try. These are the seeds I brought back from Li Village... You guys continue. Yi Ge'er and I will go back first." As he said that, he touched Yi Ge'er's hand.
Brother Yi raised his head and said to Xia Mo, "Goodbye, Brother Ze." Then he looked at Ling Chuan in a gentle voice, "Goodbye, Uncle Ling..."
"Yier, you can't call me brother Ze. You have to call me aunt, okay?" Uncle Lu patted his grandson's head in amusement and corrected him.
"Oh...goodbye, aunt." Lu Yi glanced at Ling Chuan who suddenly glanced at him, and changed his words readily.
"Haha." Lu Bo laughed twice and left with Yi Ge'er.
Alas! Xia Mo looked at their backs and sighed silently in his heart. He finally heard a voice of "Brother Ze", but it was gone just like that.
Ling Chuan glanced at him sideways, noticing the regret in his eyes without missing a word.
