Just after dawn, there was movement in the yard.

The firewood crackled softly. Lu Gu sat in front of the stove and stared blankly, obviously not awake. He added two sticks of firewood to the bottom of the stove, and then yawned.

Shen Xuanqing, who came in from the outside, saw that he was lacking in energy and was in a daze, so she approached and rubbed his head, and said, "There is nothing else to do here, if you still want to sleep after I leave, go back to sleep."

"No, it will be fine after a while." After Lu Gu finished speaking, he rubbed his face, raised his head and smiled slightly, and immediately became more energetic.

Shen Xuanqing also smiled when he saw it, and couldn't help touching his face. Since the day he went to the room, although he wanted to try it step by step, but at night, Lu Gu put his hand on his chest and refused, saying that he hadn't done it yet. Take a good rest, you are not in good shape.

He had no choice but to kiss for a while longer, the same bed for four or five days is not bad.

Getting up early in the mountains is cold, and the water seeps into the bones. After the heat is heated, the person who washes his face and cleans his teeth doesn’t have to suffer so much. They scoop up water to wash in the courtyard. Chai, you can drink it after washing your face and boiling the water.

It’s been almost ten days since it was up, and the four rows of spring vegetables planted in the front yard have sprouted, and they are about half a finger long. , When the time comes, how much will be plucked and then replanted. This dish will grow in summer and can be eaten forever.

The two rows of leeks in the vegetable garden on the other side also popped up. After watering and serving, the first crop will be harvested next month, and Shen Xuanqing will be given scrambled eggs to eat.

Garlic and spicy peppers were also planted in a row. The front yard was big, and one row was enough for the two of them. We planted a row of green onions and shallots together. There were more green onions and fewer shallots. People in the town often eat these small shallots, and they sell for a lot more than others. Scallions are expensive, but they require a lot of care to grow them. Shen Yaoqing asked someone to get some of these seeds when he heard that he had a way of drinking and chatting with someone in a neighboring village.

He didn't want to sell it, but he wanted to taste it at home, so Lu Gu and Shen Xuanqing came up to the mountain, so he asked them to bring some seeds.

Lu Gu had never planted chives before, and it had nothing to do with money, Shen Xuanqing looked like he could eat the chives and not care about them after planting them, which made him follow his heart a lot and didn't care too much. Not only did the face grow out, but it also grew a little bit taller. It felt really good to be careless.

"Brother Daqing said that the chives are neither spicy nor choking, and when the time comes, sprinkle some onion in the soup, it looks good." Lu Gu said happily.

Shen Xuanqing followed his words and looked over, and said in harmony: "The chives are fresh and green, and it must look good when sprinkled. I also take one or two with me when I go out, just to eat steamed buns and pancakes. I'm a little tired of pickled vegetables."

Eating and drinking every day is a big deal, and people can feel comfortable if they eat well. He said that he was tired of eating, so Lu Gu frowned slightly and thought about it. After a while, he said: "Next time I go up the mountain, I will bring you a few salted duck eggs. What should the ducklings do when I go back?" A lot of eggs were laid, and Shen Yan said that she would help collect them and save them up for me so that my mother could salt them into salted eggs and eat them at home."

"Okay." Shen Xuanqing nodded, and every time he saw Lu Gu's serious expression when making plans, he couldn't help but smile.

"Then I'll bring you two eggs today." Lu Gu poured out the water, put the wooden basin and cloth towel away, and hurried into the kitchen to get busy.

White steam rose from the side of the pot lid, and the water was boiling. He scooped out two bowls and put them on the chopping board, and scooped half of the pot into the earthen water pot. Then he added cold water, put the cage drawer on the shelf, and put the pancakes and eggs on it. Continue to cook, usually the pancakes will be hot soon, but today there are two more eggs and it will take a little longer to cook.

The earthenware pots were used by the two of them to drink water, and they used this to boil water on the clay stove for drinking when they were not burning the cauldron.

It was dawn, after breakfast Lu Gu sent Shen Xuanqing out, Da Hui and Da Hei ran ahead, and he returned to the yard after Shen Xuanqing was far away.

Compared with last year when he went up the mountain with Shen Xuanqing for the first time, the vegetable field in the yard is obviously much more orderly this year, row by row, no longer messy, and more vegetables are planted.

Last year when we went down the mountain, the autumn vegetables were left unattended. After a winter, they rotted in the vegetable field. When they plowed the field, they didn't get it out. The rotten leaves and roots of the vegetables were regarded as fertilizer.

There are no more chickens and ducks in the backyard, loofahs and wax gourds are planted in the back, and Shen Xuanqing has set up the loofah racks, waiting for them to grow in the future.

There is no one who is used to farm work who can't take care of vegetable fields. Before Shen Xuanqing had to go hunting every day, she was tired and had no time to do it.

Thinking of the black-hoofed sheep tethered in the corner of the backyard, Lu Gu called the pups, picked up the bamboo basket and went out to mow the grass. When he went out, Dabai whined twice, stood up with a limp and seemed to want to go out too, he Subconsciously said: "You have to save the injury."

Dabai whimpered and whimpered a few times. After Lu Gu left, he stood there watching for a while before lying down on the sack.

There is no need to run far to mow the grass, Lu Gu came back not long after, and seeing Dabai standing up wagging his tail again, he felt that it was right for Shen Xuanqing to tie him up, otherwise the injury on his leg would not be easy to heal if he moved around so much.

Of course the dog didn't understand this, it was useless for him to reason with Dabai, he could only let him walk around and wag his tail.

The black-hoofed sheep in the backyard stood up vigilantly after he passed by. The pair of long horns on their heads seemed to be quite strong. Lu Gu didn't approach, just threw the grass over.

Sheep know how to push people with their horns, especially rams. They are not weak, and they are not stupid. Just feed them with grass, so why bother to go forward.

But the dog was not afraid, and barked at the black-hoofed sheep. When it got closer, the black-hoofed sheep lowered its head and made a gesture of trying to push it up. Instead, he bit and frightened the wild sheep in the air, which is called a real mischief.

Lu Gu thought it was really going to bite, and was afraid that the sheep would hit it and it would bite the sheep. Shen Xuanqing said that if the ewes were really caught, the rams would stay and mate to plant lambs, but found that it was just After playing to scare the sheep, it doesn't matter.

The day before yesterday, Shen Xuanqing cast his net in the river, fearing that the pups would scare the sheep so that they wouldn't want to eat grass, so he patted the pups' buttocks to signal to stop messing around, and then he picked up the bamboo basket and walked forward.

Guaizi is smart and often follows him, so he naturally knows what it means, so Pidianpidian followed him.

The river was rushing, and Lu Gu came over to collect the nets with a fish basket. The sun was not hot enough at the moment, and the river seemed a little cold. He dragged the nets ashore, and the fish in the nets patted their tails, and the river shrimps were also jumping. .

The pup was very energetic, he was used to seeing fish and shrimps, and he didn’t bark at the fishing nets. The fish and shrimps jumped and splashed water, and he stepped back a few steps to shake the water on his body, and wanted to bite the fish’s tail when he came again.

"Go." Lu Gu softly reprimanded him not to let him bite.

There are few people in the deep mountains. The old Orion chose this place at the beginning. It is flat and open, and even the river is gentle. There are more fish when there are not too many people to catch them. In the past two days or so, a lot of them have been stopped.

The spring fish and fat river shrimp are also good, and they are not small.There were a total of eight fish, big and small, and twenty or so river prawns. The two largest fish baskets couldn't fit in them, so he didn't take them out of the net, and brought the fish back together.

There are a few places in the net that need to be repaired, and the fish and shrimp are enough for the two of them for several days, and they don't need to use the net for these two days.

After returning, Lu Gu separated the fish and shrimps and poured them into two old wooden basins, and raised them first, and only ate them at night, and they had time to tidy them up in the afternoon.

The dirty clothes that Shen Xuanqing took off last night should be washed, and he also changed in the morning. It was still early, and the sun was not as hot as noon, so he carried firewood into the kitchen and boiled half a pot of water mixed with cold water to save time. My hands were frozen.

The sun is pretty good these days, and the clothes can be dried in a day, but the wind is quite strong in spring, so we have to prevent the clothes from being blown away.

After a busy morning, Lu Gu didn't sit down to rest after lunch. The days were so trivial, no matter how busy he was, he couldn't be free, there was always something to do.

The sun shone in through the window, and the warmth could not be blown away by the wind. He was originally sitting by the window, but he was drowsy from the sun. He thought that he had nothing else to do, he might as well sleep for a while, so he went to bed. bed.

He didn't close the door, the puppy ran in after playing with Dabai for a while, and stood by the bed to watch him.

Hearing the sound of the boy running in, Lu Gu stretched out his hand to pat the dog's head, turned over and closed his eyes again.

"Woo." Seeing that he couldn't get up, the puppy lingered by the bed for a while, and finally fell asleep on the ground.

The sun shines in obliquely, and you can see the floating dust in the light beams constantly going up and down, and sometimes the wind blows into the house, the wind becomes weaker and blows gently, and the nap is very peaceful.

In the evening, Shen Xuanqing caught four live rabbits and came back. Lu Gu had already steamed dry rice, fried river prawns with dried chili smelled delicious, and the fish was stewed. The white soup was fresh and thick, and a bowl of wild vegetables was fried It was very good to eat.

At the end of the meal, Shen Xuanqing soaked the remaining half bowl of rice in fish soup. He picked out a few fishbone and finished eating and drinking quickly. After putting down the bowl, he felt refreshed physically and mentally.

Lu Gu has a small appetite, and he was already full just now, so the two of them cleaned up the dishes together.

He washed the dishes and Shen Xuanqing squatted beside him to help rinse in the clear water, and said: "When I came back, I found traces of deer, and I will chase after it tomorrow, maybe I can catch it."

Hearing this, Lu Gu asked: "Then will we also raise deer in the future?"

Shen Xuanqing smiled, took the plate from him, and said: "If you catch live ones, you will raise them. I heard that someone in Yuqing Fucheng set up a deer garden in the village in the countryside, which is dedicated to raising deer, but that is Shooting and hunting for the sake of the son in the mansion, as a pastime, I can’t catch so many by myself, if I really want to raise them, maybe there will be seven or eight of them.”

Speaking of his desire to raise rabbits, he got inspiration from this hearsay. In addition, he once read a gossip book, saying that a few decades ago, a wealthy family who loved rabbits made a plan for raising rabbits. A few miles of Rabbit Garden Garden.

The rich people do it for fun. He wants to raise them and sell them for money. He hunts for a year. If he is lucky, fox fur makes the most money. Maybe he can earn two to three hundred taels. If he has children in the future, food, clothing and schooling will cost There is a lot of money, and there is still a mother to support, if there is anything in the family, I have to help, and it is money.

Not to mention the fact that the family will be prosperous in the future, and those few rooms will not be enough to live in. He has been thinking about building another house in winter, but he has never said that building a house and separating the family is a big deal. , and it took nearly half of the money in his hand to buy the field, so he put it aside.

"Even if only two deer cubs are born, they can be sold for more money." Lu Gu echoed, he has heard Shen Xuanqing talk about raising rabbits these days, and he can already figure it out.

"Yes." Shen Xuanqing smiled.

The two of them didn't have much bowls and chopsticks, so they finished washing them quickly. After tidying up the kitchen, Lu Gu specially used wild bath beads to wash his hands, always afraid that such expensive hand ointment would be stained.

It was getting dark now, he rubbed his hands, saw Shen Xuanqing looking over and said, "You wipe some too?"

The hand balm is also very fragrant. After using it, his hands are obviously much more moisturized.

"I don't need it." Shen Xuanqing disliked the fragrance of the hand ointment. Although the smell was quite mild, he thought to himself, what kind of fragrance should he put on his hands as a man, but he was very concerned about the ointment on Lu Gu's hands. Lu Gu just wiped it off. After rubbing it evenly, he touched it, and even touched Fulang's face solemnly.

In spring, the wind is strong, and Lu Gu's face was a little rough when he was blown at home a few days ago, but now it has become very soft.

It seems that this face cream is really good, and he will buy it more often in the future. He thought about it, and remembered that he had used up more than half of his eight-cent bottle of cream, so he would buy another bottle for later.

After the hand was held, Lu Gu didn't struggle, and let Shen Xuanqing touch his face, it was like this when there was no one else, he was almost used to it.

There was nothing else to do at the moment, Shen Xuanqing's hands were dry and warm, but they were obviously a little rough, so he dipped some hand cream and applied it when Shen Xuanqing was playing with his fingers.

"It's so fragrant." Shen Xuanqing obviously disliked her own hand after smelling it.

Lu Gu frowned and smiled, and said, "It doesn't smell so fragrant, your hands are too dry, you should wipe it on more."
