Porridge and side dishes [farming]

"That's why it looks like soap." When he looked up and saw that the servants hadn't left yet, Li Ji knew that he was waiting for Er Gouzi, after all, Er Gouzi was the serious son of the family.

"They listen to you, you say it." Li Ji said helplessly.

"Say what?" Er Gouzi didn't know.

Li Ji teased: "You still want to show them your buttocks?"

Er Gouzi immediately shook his head, and said seriously to the servants, "Don't watch me take a bath."

The servants immediately saluted and left, Li Ji laughed out loud, Er Gouzi saw him laughing and followed suit, and when the two of them had had enough laughing, they couldn't remember why they were laughing.

After taking off his clothes, Li Ji stepped into the bathtub by stepping on the small ladder outside the bathtub. There is also a small ladder inside the bathtub for easy access. The water temperature is just right for the scent of flowers to relax.

As soon as Li Ji closed his eyes, he heard movement nearby, and when he raised his head, he met Er Gouzi's eyes.Er Gouzi had already taken off his clothes, looked at Li Ji with a smile, and was about to jump into the bathtub immediately.

"Don't make trouble, you have your own bathtub." Li Ji stretched out his hand and pushed it.

It's not about being shy, there are maids and servants at the door, if they hear anything, the magistrate finds out about it in a blink of an eye and beats him out with a stick.

How does Er Gouzi know what Li Ji is thinking?Reluctantly said: "Why use two, we wash together."

"Be obedient." Li Ji touched Er Gouzi's hair with wet hands, "This place is different from the house, let's be obedient and don't make any noise, there are still people listening outside, don't let people listen to the joke, let's wash our own things .”

Coaxing Er Gouzi to take a bath by himself, Li Ji smelled the scent of flowers and soaped him in the water. He didn't know how this thing was made, but after washing his body, he felt that it took a lot. His rough body that used to do rough work It looks a lot more delicate.

Li Ji is a man, but it doesn't mean that men don't pay attention to appearance.Those who say that men are sissy and like little girls are just making excuses for their laziness and sloppiness. Li Ji is a person who likes sloppy and also likes to see a better version of himself.

This wash will make the skin much better, and after washing it every day, it will definitely be as slippery as tofu.

Li Ji thought so, and then made fun of himself in his heart.I don't know how long I can live here, and I don't even know if I will leave alone or with two people. I really know how to live with the situation.

After taking a shower and putting on his nightgown, Li Ji still had warm moisture on his body.The bathroom leads directly to the bedroom, and the two go through the door to the bedroom by themselves.

The servant girl outside heard the movement and came over to make other arrangements.

Some spices were added to the incense burner, which can not only repel mosquitoes, but also calm the nerves.The flowers placed in the vase are sprayed with some water to make them look more lively.

There are several plates of snacks and melons and fruits on the table in the bedroom, and a large basin of ice is placed on the small table on the right. As soon as you enter the room, you can feel the cool air.

No matter where you look at it, it is exquisite.

The place in the house is perfect, there are two maids holding fans who seem to be waiting for the two to sleep, afraid that they will be hot, they will keep fanning them to sleep.

Last year's drought and sweltering heat, the two of them didn't enjoy this, Li Ji opened his mouth to drive them out, and they went out seeing that Er Gouzi had no objection.

The person finally left. The nightgown on his body was made of silk and satin. Silk and satin are just a general term for a kind of fabric, and there are distinctions between high and low.The same silk and satin, this kind of nightgown is much more comfortable than what Li Ji and Er Gouzi wear at home, and it is also very breathable, not hot at all.

After everyone left, Li Ji lay down on the bed first.The bed is not particularly soft, at least it is harder than the bed in the inn, but it is very comfortable, moderately soft and hard.

The quilt was very light, lighter than the eiderdown quilt at home, and I don't know what it was made of. Li Ji lay on the bed and stared at Er Gouzi. Er Gouzi ate a few pieces of snacks and grabbed a handful. Go to feed Li Ji.

"Don't eat on it. It doesn't need our kang. It will get dirty if it gets dirty. These are all high-quality fabrics, and they will be damaged after washing." Even though he knows that the county magistrate does not lack this, Li Ji still doesn't want to waste it.

After Er Gouzi had eaten more than a plate of dim sum, he wiped off the residue of dim sum in his hands, and then turned on the lamp and lay down on the bed.

The bed has a lot of space, but no matter how big it is, it can’t beat the big kang at home.But it was quite comfortable to lie down, and the two snuggled together without feeling uncomfortable.

"Everything here is good, and I am not qualified to know everything in my life. Er Gouzi, you have a good father." Lying on the bed, all kinds of thoughts came to Li Jizang. not open.

Li Ji spoke in a low voice, and Ergouzi felt uncomfortable listening: "I don't know him."

"We will always know each other. You keep his blood, and the blood is connected continuously." Li Ji rubbed Er Gouzi's chest and buried himself.Even though it was dark after the lights were blown, Li Ji still couldn't raise his head, for fear that Er Gouzi would see some of his real emotions.

"Don't you want me?" Er Gouzi asked himself.

Er Gouzi's tone was still calm, as if he was talking about something irrelevant, Li Ji's body trembled, and he shook his head: "No."

"You are very strange. Today is very strange." Er Gouzi stretched out his arms and hugged Li Ji tightly, "It's really good here. The food is delicious and the yard is beautiful. You don't need to do anything, someone will deliver it."

"En." Li Ji's voice became even more muffled.

"But there are too many people here. If everyone is crowded, you avoid me. I like our house. You said that we will close the door and live our little life quietly. It's just the two of us. Is it not good?"

"But..." Li Ji was a little choked up, and he managed to utter a complete sentence after gathering his emotions, "But that is your father. You may not have a concept, but that is your only blood relative in the world that you know, and you are like this A father."

"I only have one you." Er Gouzi said, "I said it. You said you can't replace him, but no one can replace you. I don't have to see anyone, but I can't see you."

The longer he stays with Li Ji, the more Er Gouzi thinks and the more mature his thinking becomes.Again, there are many things he doesn't understand, but it's not like he doesn't understand everything.Even under certain circumstances, Er Gouzi's perspective is better than that of "normal people".

Hearing Li Ji's eyes filled with tears from the unprepared love words, Li Ji even had a bold idea.If the two of them can insist on choosing their relationship, one will not leave and the other will not give up, maybe they can really pass the test of the county magistrate and stay together for the rest of their lives.

As long as two people can hold on.

Now it is basically impossible for the two of them to return to the village to restore their previous life.Either go to the mountains with Er Gouzi to live, or get the understanding of the county magistrate, and we will be together in a fair and honest manner.

The former is impossible, and the latter is no less difficult than letting Li Ji go hunting on his own and come back safe and sound.

That road is not easy to walk, and it seems that there is no smooth road.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was no way out, so Li Ji simply didn't want to go down.Anyway, if you set your goal firmly and run towards it in the future, then no matter what kind of changes will happen in the future, you will always be able to survive.

If you can survive it, endure it, if you can't survive it, get out.If you really think about it, there's nothing to worry about.

Li Ji adjusted his mentality and hugged Er Gouzi: "Sleep."

Although it was in a completely unfamiliar environment, the other party was right next to the pillow, and no one left, so they fell asleep quickly.

The two slept until dawn, but no one came to call them.Li Ji slept for a while longer because he had calculated too much yesterday and wasted too much effort. Er Gouzi was lying down with Li Ji because he saw that Li Ji hadn't woken up and he didn't have any work to do.

When Li Ji woke up, it was already daylight, he sat up and looked around, reflected for a while before realizing that this is the county magistrate's mansion.

Looking at Er Gouzi who was staring at him, Li Ji felt more at ease and got off the bed directly.

"Okay, let's get dressed." Although the two of them can do nothing in this mansion, the habit of sleeping late cannot be maintained.Being lazy is addictive, Li Ji managed to cultivate himself to be a diligent person, but he doesn't want to be lazy anymore.

After all, laziness is the source of poverty.

"No clothes." Er Gouzi said.

Li Ji was slightly stunned, and looked in the room, there were indeed no slippers that were convenient to wear when writing, and the only clothes he wore were nightgowns.

Li Ji went out and opened the door. The two maids stood at the door for an unknown amount of time. When they saw Li Ji, they saluted and called Mr. Li.

Li Ji was not used to this, so he nodded and went back to the house.

The two servant girls followed in directly, first saluted Er Gouzi, called the eldest son, then went to clean up the remaining snacks on the table, and then went out, and soon six more servant girls came in one after another. Holding a tray with a bang on it.

The window was opened, and the sunlight came in and shone on those clothes. Li Ji only felt dazzled when he saw it. The young master's little Baiyu's attire can be said to have opened the eyes of the whole village, so he was so easily deceived. The one in the tray in front of him is even more handsome than Xiao Baiyu's body.

The maid came here to serve and dress, where would Li Ji and Er Gouzi be willing?They were all driven out, and the two helped each other put on their clothes.

This dress looks gorgeous, but it is troublesome to wear.However, the fabric is very light and breathable, and it will not be very hot.

After putting on the clothes, Li Ji asked Er Gouzi to do it in front of the mirror, and Li Ji picked up a comb to comb Li Ji's hair.The comb has a strange touch, it doesn't look like wood, and it doesn't look like it's next to it. It's quite comfortable to hold, and it's smooth to comb your hair.

Comb Er Gouzi's hair to the top of his head into a bun, and then put the jeweled crown on it.What does it mean to rely on clothing?When Er Gouzi found it, Li Ji asked him to stand up and turn around, but Er Gouzi shook Li Ji so much that he couldn't open his eyes.

Er Gouzi was originally strong and had good-looking facial features. Wearing such a gorgeous dress on his body, he really looks like a handsome young man standing here.

Li Ji looked at it in a daze, such Er Gouzi was well-dressed, good-looking, really good-looking.He just vaguely felt that such a second dog was too far away from him.

Thinking of this, Li Ji's eyes dimmed a bit, and he stretched out his hand to tidy Er Gouzi's clothes: "It's so pretty."

Er Gouzi touched Li Ji's uncombed hair, told Li Ji to sit down, and he combed Li Ji's hair.

But obviously, Er Gouzi didn't have that benefit, and the hair he made was fluffy and unsightly.

In the end, it was Li Ji who loosened his hair and re-styled it himself. He didn't wear a hair crown, so he just used a red headband to tie his hair. He looked energetic.Originally, clothes are made of good materials, even without hair crowns, people still look good.

After finishing it, I dragged the two dogs to go out together. The maids at the door and the servants stood in two rows, and the leading maid stood up and bowed her knees and said: "Elder Master, Mr. Li, the master still has business to do, yesterday I just rested in the mansion, and I didn’t come back to eat in the morning. Do you want to use it in the bedroom or the dining room this morning? Or where to use it while looking at the scenery in the mansion?”

This is not just a matter of being polite, it needs to make a choice, otherwise it will be difficult for them.

Li Ji looked at Er Gouzi, Er Gouzi didn't intend to speak, so Li Ji made the decision for Er Gouzi: "Let's go to the dining room."

There is a small dining room in the yard, so there is no need to go to the big room where the whole family eats.

Rich families are very particular about their meals. This morning meal is all soup and water, and there are two eggs, which taste good.Even if you are full, you are not very hungry.

As the old saying goes, eat well early, eat full at noon, and eat less late.It is not easy to eat too much sooner or later.

The two chatted for a while, but they didn't use the maids to serve and eat, and they sat together with chairs, which was actually not very comfortable.

There are so many people standing there, they can't even speak decent personal words, not to mention the close relationship between the two, if you want to say something private, you must not let others listen to it.

After breakfast, the two of them were bored, so they asked someone to guide them to the bamboo forest to see the birds. The birds there were beautiful and colorful, which Li Ji had never seen before.As for Ergouzi, he grew up in the mountains, and there are many birds in the mountains. Although he has not seen all the birds raised here, he has seen some beautiful birds.

Li Ji grabbed a handful of millet and teased them one by one. He still liked the talking one the most, because as soon as Li Ji fed it, it would say auspicious words, and they said several different ways.

He listened to all the good things, and felt comfortable being flattered.Li Ji is a common man, so he's good at it.

After feeding the birds, I went to feed the koi. The koi in the pond were full of waves, which was very beautiful. The two of them passed the time like this until noon. Some family members said that they could take a boat to pick lotus and lotus pods inside.It's just that there are few lotus pods at this time, so it's not easy to find them.

Just tired of feeding fish, Li Ji and Er Gouzi agreed.A flat boat will fit three people, Li Ji and Er Gouzi, and a servant who is punting the boat.

This is the first time Li Ji has been on a boat since he was a child, and Er Gouzi is also full of curiosity and freshness.

The surface of the water was ups and downs, watching the ripples left by the boat passing in the water, Li Ji stretched out his hand to stir the water in the pond, the water in the pond was cool and very comfortable.

It was full and entered the depths of the lotus. The lotus leaves were very big. Li Ji stretched out his hand to touch them, and they were very smooth to the touch, with a layer of very fine down.Among them, not many lotus flowers bloomed, so Li Ji reached out and touched two of them.This flower is so beautiful, but I am reluctant to pick it off and keep it for myself.

After driving for a while, Li Ji found a lotus pod.Li Ji didn't quite understand, so it was all up to his servants to explain.

"This lotus is beautiful to grow, but it has many uses. After the flower fades, it will grow a lotus pod. The lotus seeds are the most delicious. If you peel the lotus heart, it is delicious even if you eat it raw. The tremella lotus seed stew at home uses lotus seeds. They are all picked from here in autumn. The lotus root that grows in the mud is delicious when the flowers fall. "

Not to mention Er Gouzi, Li Ji is even greedy.

Li Ji reached out and picked off the lotus pod, opened it directly to find the lotus seeds inside, and listened to the servant's prompt, took out the lotus seeds and shared them.

Fresh things always need to add a few more layers of liking, and there are not many lotus seeds in a lotus pod.

After eating it, I continued to search and picked a few more.

But this is not the time for the lotus pod harvest.Until Li Ji got seasick, he picked four lotus pods.

Li Ji was not in a hurry to eat, he thought about eating together when the magistrate came back.

On the shore, Li Ji was seasick and uncomfortable, so he sat in the pavilion on Hushangtou and drank tea to suppress his nausea, and then he and Er Gouzi pulled out the lotus seeds by himself.

As a result, when the two of them peeled the lotus seeds, they couldn't hold back and ate some. After sowing, there were only three lotus pods left.

There is not much in total, and it will not be enough if you share it.Simply send it to the kitchen and ask them to stew these lotus seeds into tremella and lotus seed soup, and use them together when the magistrate comes back to have dinner together.

The county magistrate still didn't come back at noon, and the two of them had nothing to do in the afternoon, so they got into the flowers to recognize flowers.

Li Ji asked if there were any fruit trees in the house, and the servant girl led them directly.

In the opposite direction to the bamboo forest, there is a small orchard with various fruit trees, and in a remote place further in, there is a plum orchard.There is only winter to see it all year round, and there is nothing to see in other seasons, so no one likes to go, and it is even more cold.

At this time, it was not the season of fruit harvest. Li Ji could recognize a few trees when he went in. He stood beside a plum tree and looked up. When ripe, the plums at this time taste the best, with moderate sweetness and sourness.

Li Ji hadn't eaten it for two years. The fruits he ate in the past two years were either preserved fruits or wild fruits from the mountains.

Li Ji wants to go up to pick them, but this is someone else's house, it seems impolite to climb a tree when you are a guest.

Er Gouzi looked at Li Ji's drooling look at the fruits on the tree, he didn't care what was there, he ran straight up the tree, stood on the not-so-thick tree branch in a few jumps, and reached out to pick the fruit .

Li Ji was startled, and the servants who followed almost knelt down.

In order to come here, the collective practiced and sought:

"Master, don't scare me, come down quickly, don't fall!"

"Eldest son, be careful, don't climb up to the top, it's dangerous."

"Master, you are the living ancestor of the servant, come down quickly."

Li Ji, who wanted to dissuade him, was almost amused by them, and the worry in his heart disappeared.

"Come down, it scares them." Li Ji knew Er Gouzi's skill well, this tree is short, even if it really fell down, he wouldn't be afraid.

Er Gouzi plucked a few plums with quick hands and feet, jumped down, and handed them to Li Ji.

Li Ji looked at Er Gouzi and smiled helplessly, and said a few words meaningfully: "You are not afraid of scaring them, that's all right, just this once."

Er Gouzi nodded in response.Then Li Ji took a plum, wiped it with his hands, and then divided the plum into two pieces. The core jumped out and threw it under the tree, and gave the other half to Er Gouzi.

The two of them ate a plum, the flesh was sweet and sour, and it was good for snacks.

If there were only two of them, Li Ji would definitely ask Er Gouzi to pick more and chew them at night when he had nothing to do, but seeing the appearance of the servants, he swallowed this idea into his stomach again.They also use money to do things. If Er Gouzi really has something good or bad, they will not be fined enough.

Whether it is a deed of living or a deed of death, or a son of the family, the master has the right to beat and scold the subordinates at any time. The current people are all honest and can't tolerate the slightest sloppy.

Li Ji didn't want to make things difficult for them.

Li Ji ate too much and went out twice. He couldn't help but go to the toilet. The toilet here is clean and has almost no smell. There is a bucket under the toilet.

It's a good thing to use, and if you look back and look at the ones you used before, you won't see it.Li Ji thought that if he could go back to live in the future, he could also refer to this method, so as not to have a bad smell when he didn't go back, especially in summer, and there were maggots in it, and the disgusting good mood was gone.

I have never felt that there is anything wrong with these before, mainly because of the contrast and foil.

The county magistrate didn't come back until the afternoon, and went directly to the yard where Li Ji and Er Gouzi lived.

At this time, the two of them had been watching the whole yard for a whole day, and Li Ji was still seasick, so he lay on the bed to rest for a while, when he heard the sound outside, Li Ji quickly got up from the bed, and saw the magistrate opened the door curtain and walked in.

"What about resting? I heard that you have played in the mansion all day, so it's time for you to take a good rest now."

The magistrate lifted up his robe and sat at the table opposite the bed, and then the servant girl brought in tea.

Li Ji was very embarrassed, got off the bed, put on his shoes and went to the opposite of the county magistrate: "I haven't seen anything, so I just looked around. You know the situation in my house. There is a small stream nearby, and there is a small fish pond. I have never been on a boat since I was a child, so I asked a little brother to take me and Er Gouzi to sit for a while, but I didn't live up to it and fainted all afternoon."

"This is normal. Some people get seasick from sitting on a boat for a lifetime, and some people get dizzy when they just get used to it. If you don't like it, people will eat whatever they like in the lake. They He does things with money, so he is not afraid of trouble no matter what he does." The county magistrate's eye sockets were a little blue, obviously not having a good rest, but he seemed to be in good spirits.

After saying this, the magistrate turned to Er Gouzi again: "Are you still used to it?"

The magistrate's voice was much gentler, waiting for Er Gouzi's answer.

In the expectation of the magistrate, Er Gouzi thought about it carefully, without nodding or shaking his head, he said, "I'm homesick."

The author has something to say: I have to say, Er Gouzi's words are more than Li Ji's venomous words, and it hurts Lao Tie [laughing and crying]

Did you guys watch the blue blood red lunar eclipse last night?I took several videos, eh?
