Abandoned Husband to Farm the Farm

Chapter 2 Shooting and Staying

"Young master! Young master! It's noon, do you want to eat?"

Mu Xiaolu was sleeping soundly, dreaming that he was raising pigs on the mountain while eating braised pork in a lunch box, that smells so good.Suddenly I heard someone calling outside, opened my eyes and saw that I was still in the car, and realized that I was dreaming, and my stomach was already growling.Picking up the curtain and stretching my head to see, the sun was rising in the sky, but there was a layer of thin clouds, which made it a little overcast, and it was already noon.

The carriage has already left the city for tens of miles, and now it is parked in a lively town, which is quite antique and bustling.

The coachman with the horse was looking at him expectantly.Although the accent of the people here is a bit weird, but now I can roughly understand it, but in order not to be confused, Mu Xiaolu still avoided talking too much, so he just nodded.

There is a small restaurant on the side of the road. It was lunchtime, and the restaurant was full and full of people.Two bright young men dressed in gray shorts, with snow-white handkerchiefs on their shoulders, shuttled back and forth, greeting guests skillfully, serving food and clearing the tables.

One of them saw two people coming in, and said with a smile on his face: "Guest officer, please sit here." He led them to an empty table and sat down, and asked with a smile: "Guest officer, what would you like to eat? The shop has all kinds of pasta, rice and Dishes. I don't know what taste the guest officer likes?"

Mu Xiaolu raised his eyes to look at the menu board hanging on the wall next to the counter, with black letters on a red background, one next to the other, in a long row, there are really many names of dishes.But when I am away from home, I should simply eat something. Although I have money, I still need to save money, and I have to live in the future.Seeing the waiter's expectant eyes, he simply said three words: "Two bowls of noodles."

The guy was a little disappointed, but he still smiled and shouted to the kitchen: "Two bowls of noodles for the guests at table eight!"

Mu Xiaolu smiled inwardly: he is of good quality.

The driver is a poor old man in his fifties, and he is not picky about his food, as long as he eats what he has.

When the noodles were served, even though Mu Xiaolu was prepared, he was still taken aback.This is not a bowl, it is obviously a pot!Fortunately, I was a big man of 1.7 meters [-] in my previous life, and I raised pigs on the mountain all the year round, so I had the strength and appetite, otherwise I would definitely not be able to finish this bowl of noodles.But the marinade was very fragrant, and the seductive stomach growled more and more.So he glanced at the coachman and said, "Eat." The two picked up their chopsticks and devoured it.

While eating, Mu Xiaolu felt a few strange eyes around him, and when he looked around, he immediately looked away.Mu Xiaolu was a little strange, thinking to himself, what's wrong with me?Oh, yes, everyone else has a bun, but I have a ponytail, which is different.Just look at it, and you can't see me, so leave after eating.

Keep eating as long as you think about it.Who would have thought that a word floated vaguely along with that line of sight, although it was three light words, it immediately made Mu Xiaolu feel very embarrassed, what the person said was: "You are so handsome!"

damn it!How could I forget, the owner of this body is a male favorite, he must be very beautiful.Good men don't marry wives and have children, but they choose to be other people's wives. It's really a waste for them to just be a woman from the palace!How could I be so unlucky that I was seen as a monkey by wearing it on such a person!Forget it, leave as soon as possible after eating, in the future, you will have to spend more time in the sun and work harder, trying to restore the appearance that a man should have as soon as possible.

Mu Xiaolu complained in his heart while eating.

Fortunately, someone in the store brought up the topic again, and everyone's eyes were diverted again.Just as Mu Xiaolu wanted to inquire about the information of this world, he slowed down the speed of eating noodles and quietly listened to the high-spirited talk of the people behind him.

"I heard that the war on the northern border is tense, and the imperial court is going to recruit troops." A big man in yellow said loudly, his voice was like a bell.

Mu Xiaolu dug his ears in shock and continued to listen.

A person next to the big man said: "This battle has been fought from last autumn to this autumn, and it hasn't finished yet? The Huns are really powerful!"

"What do you know? Our great Chu cavalry are much more powerful than the Xiongnu soldiers. I heard that this spring also captured a great king of the Huns. What is his name? He eats a lot!" The other retorted loudly, annoyed that he wanted others to destroy his country's prestige.

"People who don't study are really a joke. What eats a lot? It's Qi Heduo, the youngest god of war in our army-General Wang led a sneak attack and captured him. My cousin is under General Wang. , so I know best." A middle-aged gentleman in a robe stood up and responded loudly, his tone was very proud, and he was very disdainful to the person who just mispronounced the name of the enemy chieftain.

The person being ridiculed naturally jumped up and reasoned with him.The person next to him held him down and asked the scholar, "General Wang? I heard that he is the most valiant soldier in our Great Chu! A few years ago, when he won a victorious battle, he paraded through the streets on horseback. The streets were full of people. It can't be leaked. Alas! If my family status is high, I would like to marry my daughter to him!"

"Just you, a little boss who runs a small snack shop, wanting to climb up to General Wang, dream about it haha!"

The next topic has turned to the romantic affairs of General Wang and the high-ranking officials in the capital.

Mu Xiaolu felt that there was no need to listen anymore, so he wanted to hurry up and finish eating the noodles, but he suddenly found that there were two thirds of the noodles left, and he was already full!How is this going?He found sadly that he had miscalculated his appetite, his current appetite was not that of his original body, but that of Jing Yuan's body.It's full like a cat.No wonder he is so weak.

There was no way, looking at more than half of the noodles, although he felt sorry, he couldn't ask others to pack them.

"My lord, if you don't want to eat it, let the old man eat it." Seeing him staring at the noodles, the coachman thought he didn't want to eat it, so he suggested cautiously.

That's all there is to it, it's better than wasting it.

With deep resentment, Mu Xiaolu sat in the car again.The coachman also sat up, yelled twice, flicked his whip, and the carriage started to move on, continuing northward, with the intention of staying overnight in the next town before dark.

Mu Xiaolu was full and a little lazy, but he didn't want to sleep, so he opened the curtain and looked at the scenery.This road is an official road, and the traffic is very lively, and people can be heard talking loudly from time to time.Mu Xiaolu found that some people spoke a bit like his original Mandarin, so he asked the driver where his accent was.

The driver flicked his whip while laughing, "It's the accent from your hometown, that's how everyone in the north speaks. Is your son going home to visit relatives?"

Mu Xiaolu felt relieved now, and replied, "It's not about visiting relatives, it's about going back and not coming to the capital."

The coachman smiled and said, "It's okay, there is no home anywhere. The old man's home is not from the capital either, he just lives in the capital."

Mu Xiaolu asked: "Where is the old man's house?"

The coachman pointed his whip in front of him: "Young master, you are welcome. The old man's surname is Wang, and his hometown is fifty miles ahead. There is a small village in Chubei Town called Wangjiazhuang. Our place is poor, so the old man's family moved to the capital to earn some money for his son to marry. Daughter-in-law, let’s go back to the village when the old man can’t move anymore. The young master is a scholar, so you can’t see such a handsome person in our place. Only people like the young master deserve to enjoy the glory and wealth.”

Mu Xiaolu was ashamed, and thought to himself: The handsome young man you mentioned is just a male favorite, and my future career plan is to raise pigs, which has nothing to do with prosperity.

When the sun was setting, the cold wind picked up.It was originally overcast, but now it started to rain. It wasn't a heavy rain, but it was enough to make people drenched.The old man stopped the car to prop up the shed above his head, and continued to drive, but there was still some rain that was blown in by the wind and wet his old jacket.

The cold was coming, Mu Xiaolu couldn't help shivering, and asked the old man, "Old man, why is it raining so much in late autumn?"

The old man said with a smile: "We are like this here, because it is neither south nor north, right in the middle, and the earth is warm, so there is rain in winter, and it is very humid. Further north, it gradually becomes dry. Even if there is rain at this time It won't be this big, but it's much colder than here. You are from the north, so you should know that the north and the south are different."

Mu Xiaolu thought to himself, could it be that this place is equivalent to the Yangtze River Basin?He asked: "I haven't been here for a long time, and I haven't looked around. Are there any big rivers here?"

The old man Wang flicked his whip, turned his head and smiled, "No wonder the young master is not familiar with the weather here, so he didn't stay for long. Two hundred miles south of the capital city, there is a big river that runs through our big Chu country, called: Chu River."

Mu Xiaolu felt that it was not in line with the knowledge of his previous life, so he had no choice but to give up.But it is guessed that this place should be norther than the Yangtze River and southerly than the Yellow River, otherwise it would not be raining so much at this time of year.

Look at the town ahead, but the rain is getting heavier and heavier. Through the dense rain curtain, the guest curtain of the inn can be seen from a distance.The old man Wang hurried a few steps with his whip, and when he arrived at the door of the inn, he shouted at the horses and reined in hard, and the carriage stopped slowly.

When I got out of the car, I ran a few steps in a hurry, but the rain was already heavy, and I was still soaked through.Autumn rain is not like summer rain, it is cold.Mu Xiaolu originally thought that a little rain would be fine, but he forgot how weak his body is now, so he shivered.

The clerk in the inn was very enthusiastic. He took the horse and asked him to take it to the backyard, and asked with a smile, "What kind of room does the guest want? There are three classes in the store. The guests must be in the middle class and the upper class." Match it!"

Mu Xiaolu thought to himself: "You really can talk, this is a run on me. But who am I? I am Mu Xiaolu with a firm will!" After thinking about it, he smiled slightly: "The two are inferior."

The guy's face was a little cracked for a moment, but he immediately recovered his smile and said, "Okay, the two of you will follow me."

When I was sleeping at night, the window outside the window "slapped" on the window, wet the window paper, and the whole room smelled of damp.

Mu Xiaolu felt very cold, even though he wrapped the quilt tightly, it was still very cold, gradually the air coming out of his nostrils was hot.That's when I realized it was a cold.I deeply feel that it is too shameful for a big man to get sick from such a little rain.He used to be physically strong and rarely caught a cold, so he didn't care if he got caught in the rain.But he is still not familiar with the body he has just received, and he has not realized that it is already weak, and the hunger strike for many days has worn down this body, so it is normal to have a cold and a fever.

The next day was still cloudy and rainy.

Early in the morning, old man Wang knocked on the door, shouted a few times but no one answered, he hurriedly asked the assistant to open the door, only to find that Mu Xiaolu's face was flushed and his breathing was heavy, and he was already half-drowsy.The old man was very kind, so he hurried out to ask the doctor.

Mu Xiaolu couldn't move in a daze, but he felt footsteps coming and going around him, as if someone reached out to his arms...

When Old Man Wang braved the rain to invite the doctor and rushed to the inn, the guy was waiting in the lobby.Seeing that Old Man Wang was drenched all over, like a drowned rat, he smiled crookedly and said lightly, "Guest, please settle last night's rent first?"
