Seeing Xia Mo rushing into the kitchen, Liu Yingying and Liu Yu couldn't help but smile at each other.

"Let's go and see if there's anything we can do to help," Liu Yingying suggested.

Liu Yu responded and the two of them walked towards the kitchen.

"Huh? How did you get in?" Xia Mo, who was washing rice, raised his head when he heard the noise and saw Liu Yingying and Liu Yu walking in.

"Just come in and take a look, and help out." Liu Yu looked around and said casually.

Xia Mo smiled and said, "What's so good about the kitchen? It's full of smoke."

There was indeed nothing good to see. After taking a quick look around, Liu Yingying walked straight to the stove and sat down.

"Let me light the fire."

Seeing that Liu Yingying had already sat down, Liu Yu turned to ask Xia Mo: "Ze'er, is there anything else you want to do? Don't be polite with me, we should be frank as friends."

"Then just help me wash the vegetables." Xia Mo couldn't help but laugh secretly when he heard that. This Yu Ge'er is really something. He follows suit and learns very quickly.

"Okay." After getting the OK, Liu Yu turned around to get the wooden basin and went to wash the vegetables.

Suddenly there were two more helpers. After Xia Mo washed the rice, he felt that he had nothing to do, so he took out the marinated meat and three eggs.

Liu Yingying and Liu Yu didn't expect Xia Mo to make such a sumptuous feast, so they stopped him.

"Ze'er, just stir-fry some vegetables. You can keep the meat and eggs."

"Yeah." Liu Yu also looked at Xia Mo with disapproval.

Xia Mo laughed and said, "No, this meat was marinated last night. It will go bad if we don't eat it now. Besides, I can't eat that much by myself."

"Then the eggs can be kept." Liu Yingying changed her words, and Liu Yu beside her nodded. Eating meat and eggs is really a bit of a luxury.

Xia Mo hesitated for a moment, and seeing that they really minded, he gave up. Forget it, anyway, he could wait until they came to help him another day to cook.

So they had fried meat and vegetables for lunch.

After eating and drinking, Liu Yingying and Liu Yu stayed for a while and then went back. After they left, Xia Mo rinsed the two bamboo sieves that Liu Yu brought.

After everything was done, Xia Mo had some free time. After sitting there for a while with nothing to do, he took out the dagger from his waist and began to think of the person he had met.

Well, he had been alone before and didn’t find it so difficult.

Xia Mo just spent the first day of Ling Chuan's departure in such a hurry...

The next morning.

Liu Yingying and Liu Yu, who had an appointment with Xia Mo, came early. Fortunately, Xia Mo got up early today, otherwise the door would probably not be open when they arrived.

"Good morning, Ze."

"Good morning." Xia Mo replied with a smile, and then took them to scoop the wheat into the bamboo sieve and spread it flat.

"That's it. All that's left is to sprinkle some water on them every day and wait for the malt to grow well."

"Well, Ze'er, you can do the watering yourself. We'll come back when the malt is grown."

"Yeah." Xia Mo had no objection.

Liu Yingying: "Brother Ze, we are going to go pick wild vegetables later, the ones we told you about last time, do you want to join us?"

"Dig wild vegetables? Okay." Xia Mo thought it would be boring to stay at home alone, so he agreed immediately.

Liu Yu said: "Let's go, it's cool in the morning."

Xia Mo nodded, took the bamboo basket and followed them, then set off towards their destination.

Just like Liu Yu said, summer mornings are the coolest. Breathing the fresh air, Xia Mo, who was a little depressed, instantly became more energetic.

When they arrived at the flat land at the foot of the mountain, they saw a field of green shepherd's purse from afar. Perhaps because of the rain the day before, each shepherd's purse was quite large.

Liu Yu and Liu Yingying found a good spot and started digging. Just after he dug one, he realized that Xia Mo was still standing there looking around.

"Brother Ze, you should start digging soon. I saw someone digging wild vegetables nearby yesterday afternoon. This patch is growing so well, it's likely that someone has already taken a fancy to it. Maybe someone will come here soon."

Xia Mo turned around and said "OK", then chose a place and started digging shepherd's purse.

Xia Mo was alone at home and couldn't eat so much shepherd's purse by himself, but shepherd's purse can be made into dried shepherd's purse, so after he finished digging his own, he started to help Liu Yingying and the others dig.

Some shepherd's purse roots were difficult to dig, so Xia Mo took out a dagger. Unfortunately, he couldn't bear to use it before he pulled it out, so he decided to use a branch instead. Although the effect of a branch couldn't be compared with a sharp weapon, it was better than...

"Ah! Ze Ge'er, what's in your hand... a dagger?" Liu Yu's voice suddenly came from above him.

Xia Mo looked up and found that Liu Yu had moved to his side without him knowing when, and was staring at the dagger in his hand with shining eyes. He was so scared that he couldn't help but retract his hand.

"You scared me to death." Xia Mo said.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu finally moved her gaze to Xia Mo. She looked at him suspiciously for a long while, and then gave him a teasing look that said, "I know."

"Oh, Brother Ze, tell me the truth, was it given to you by Brother Ling?"

Xia Mo felt inexplicably embarrassed by the look in his eyes. He said "hmm" and turned his face away slightly, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Liu Yu clicked his tongue a few times and said, "Your dagger is so beautiful." Such an exquisite dagger must be very, very expensive.

"That is."

When Xia Mo heard him praising his dagger, the smile on her face, which she had been trying hard to keep tense, could no longer be suppressed, and she immediately smiled sweetly and proudly.

I don’t even think about who gave it to me, of course it’s the best looking.

At this time, Liu Yingying also came over. She looked at the dagger with envy, "This is the first time I've seen such a beautiful dagger. Look how happy you are. It seems that Brother Ling really loves his wife."

Xia Mo, who was teased by both of them at the same time, couldn't help but blush. Without thinking, she directly retorted: "I love my husband very much too, okay."

Liu Yingying chuckled and said, "Oh? Then tell me, how do you love Brother Ling?"

"Yes, yes, Ze brother, I'm curious too, just tell me." Liu Yu squatted down and looked at him interestedly, her clear eyes full of curiosity.

"...Ahem, why are you two unmarried women asking so many questions? Is this what you should listen to?" Xia Mo raised the corners of his eyes and said in a bluffing manner.

Liu Yingying covered her mouth and laughed softly, "Why can't I listen? When my Gu Lang comes back, I will also have a husband."

Xia Mo was a little surprised when he heard that, but he didn't show it on his face, "That doesn't count, you are single anyway..." Dog.

"Hmm...?" Liu Yu stared at Xia Mo for a moment, feeling that he seemed to have missed some words.

"Okay, okay, let's hurry up and dig shepherd's purse. Look, the sun is already very high." Xia Mo changed the subject.

"Really not going to tell you? Come on, Ze'er, that's keeping me in suspense." Liu Yu didn't want to give up.

"What?" Xia Mo pretended to be stupid, then put away his precious dagger and started digging shepherd's purse with branches, ignoring the two gossipy guys behind him.
