The Sweet Little Fulang

The boy who was sulking in the corner didn't want to look back, he only moved his tail, the smile on Lu Gu's face never disappeared, his eyebrows and eyes were raised, and his tone seemed to be coaxing a child: "Why are you so angry?"

Shen Xuanqing beside him was also laughing, and said, "I have a pretty temper."

Seeing that Lu Gu put a clay pot to boil water, he bent down and stuffed a piece of firewood into the clay stove. The pup barked, ran and jumped towards him, his little tail was still wagging happily, not at all disturbed. Understand the good boy who is angry on the other side.

"Good boy." Lu Gu shouted again.

The boy who is usually clingy the most still doesn't pay attention.

He put down his sewing with a smile, went to the corner, knelt down and patted the boy's solid back, and even spoke with a smile: "Angry? The puppy is not as big as you, what did you do to it just now?"

"Woo." The boy moved, and secretly glanced at Lu Gu with his eyes, his small eyes looked like a chicken thief.

Lu Gu kept stroking along its back, seeing its eyes, his eyes rolled into a smile, and coaxed softly: "Our good boy is the best and the best, you are older than a puppy, you are the elder brother, right?"

He didn't know if Guaizi could understand, so he said the words as soon as they came to his mouth. It was better to coax and touch them than Guaizi hid himself in a corner and was wronged.

"You are a good brother, you can't be cruel to the little dog in the future, they are both puppies of our family." Lu Gu rubbed the dog's head again, and after coaxing him in a low voice for a long time, the good boy was willing to move his butt He turned around and put his head into his arms, rubbing his head in disorder, still whining.

Shen Xuanqing sat in front of the brazier and warmed her hands, while drying the snow-wet clothes, she smiled and said, "Eating so much, I have developed a delicate temper, I am too used to it."

"It's only one year old." Lu Gu rubbed the dog's head and said in a low voice, one year old is not like a child, I'm used to it, in this winter, if the boy doesn't grow fatter, he will definitely shiver from the cold.

The boy in his arms was gradually happy to be rubbed, and he jumped up and put his front paws on his lap. Lu Gu had no choice but to hug him, patted his back and continued to coax him: "Our boy is the most obedient, he can eat and hunt. .”

Squatting here with a big dog in his arms, Lu Gu couldn't hold on for too long, and managed to coax the good boy, so he got him down.

Guaizai wagged his tail and followed him to the brazier, and huddled with Da Hui to warm up the fire. It was no longer the puppy it used to be, its stocky body moved Da Hui to the side.

"Wet?" Lu Gu came over and saw the wet spots on Shen Xuanqing's shoulders and clothes.

"Well, the snow is still quite heavy, I don't know how many days it will be." Shen Xuanqing stretched out his hand on the fire, and felt that it was hot. He came beside him, rubbed his head against his calf, and lowered his head to motion for him to rub it.

"This dog will steal favors." He joked, but his hands were not stingy, he rubbed the furry dog's head a few times with his big hands, and even pinched the dog's ears like Lu Gu.

The chubby little Huang is small, not as tall as the boy's legs, barking twice, wagging his tail and wanting to play with the boy.

Unexpectedly, Guaizi turned his head and ignored it at all, as long as it was not aggressive to the puppy, Lu Gu and Shen Xuanqing didn't care too much, let them do their thing.

After a while, Lu Gu, who finished embroidering a handkerchief, looked up again, and saw the boy's front paws were straightened up, his buttocks were slightly pouted, and his front paws jumped suddenly. Xiao Huang whined and wagged his tail, playing. Pooh boy, we really had fun together.

For some reason, he was inexplicably relieved that Guaizi has really grown up, but think about it, Guaizi has always been a good boy since he was a child, except for being naughty, never biting anyone, playing with chickens and ducklings when he was young I never got bitten.

At this time, he packed up the sewing basket, Shen Xuanqing took down the coir raincoat and bamboo hat hanging from the wall, and the two of them put it on, before Wei Lanxiang and Shen Yaoqing came over, they went to the backyard to feed the poultry.

The snowflakes were falling, and the eyes were white. The water in the big earthen pot had been boiled long ago. Shen Xuanqing brought a bucket of hot water to pour it for the rabbits, chickens and ducks first, followed by the calf and four sheep. They ran back and forth several times.

While working, I heard a few dogs barking in front of me, it was Wei Lanxiang and Shen Yaoqing.

After finishing all this work, the snow finally became a little bit smaller.

Lu Gu carried the egg basket into the main room, he took off his bamboo hat, and glanced at the two eggs in the basket with slightly curved eyebrows.

There are a lot of hay and rice oranges piled up in the henhouse. Just now, I went to touch two eggs in the haystack. After winter, the hens don’t lay eggs when it’s cold. Fortunately, they have more chickens and the henhouse is padded Warm, sometimes one day, even eggs and duck eggs can touch four or five.

He carefully put the eggs in the egg basket and saved them. This is a precious thing in winter. Now he eats one every two days. After saving a few days, he can give Shen Xuanqing scrambled eggs to eat. If the rest is not sold to brothels, the sky will be fine If you go to the town to hawk, the price is a few cents higher. If you don’t want to hawk along the street, you can send it to a brothel. The price is lower but you don’t have to go too far.

The snow gradually stopped, but it was already afternoon and the sky was not very bright.

As usual, Shen Yaoqing and Wei Lanxiang went home first, and Lu Gu got up and closed the door and locked the yard with Shen Xuanqing when it was almost dinner time.

The boy squeezed out from the crack of the courtyard door before it was closed, probably because he was afraid that Shen Xuanqing would leave it here, so he ran a few steps into the village with his tail wagging, and stood not far away and yelled at them. Let's keep up.

The gate of the courtyard has been locked, even Xiao Huang stayed inside, since it came out, Lu Gu and Shen Xuanqing didn't shout or scold it, and let it run happily in the snow to its hometown.

The two of them fell behind, never thinking that the boy who just ran into the house suddenly barked, and the movement was quite loud.

As soon as I entered the door, I realized that it was barking at Huang'er, backing away while barking, looking very angry, and its fluffy tail seemed to be a little fried.

"What's wrong?" Lu Gu was a little confused.

Shen Yan protected the pup and said, "I don't know either. Just now, the boy rushed in like a whirlwind. When he saw Huang'er stunned for a while, he kept barking."

"It also attacked Xiao Huang over there. I guess it didn't expect there to be Huang'er here." Shen Xuanqing smiled.

It was like this, Lu Gu looked at the angry boy and smiled helplessly, reached out and patted it on the head, if he had known that he would bring both puppies with him when he passed by, so that boy would not get angry twice.

Ji Qiuyue and Wei Lanxiang were busy in the kitchen, it was not good for him to play with the dog here, so he rolled up his sleeves and washed his hands in the still warm water, then hurried to the kitchen.

The boy barked for a while, scaring Huang'er a little, Shen Yan had no choice but to carry the puppy into the room, and it stopped.

The family has two more puppies and it becomes lively. Of course, except for the angry boy, everyone else is very happy.

It has a big temper, a dog walks alone and no one cares about it, Shen Xuanqing also said to Lu Gu, if it is on a hunger strike, don't worry about it, it will naturally know how to eat when it is hungry, who knows that it will not miss a meal When the food bowl moved a little, the ears popped up, and I didn't miss a bite after eating. It took two whole days to play with the two puppies again. They played crazy and became familiar, but they didn't sulk anymore.

When the sun came out, the snow melted, every house could hear the ticking, and the ground became muddy and difficult to walk on.

Early in the morning, Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing went out to Wangli Village. When they came back, there was another livestock in the house. A mule was tied in the backyard, and the whole family gathered around the mule to watch.

Shen Xuanqing bought it for five taels of silver. He wanted to send chickens, ducks and rabbits to the brothel and Yang Xian's tavern in Jixing Town. It was impossible for him and his brothers to carry them on their backs. It took dozens of miles to and fro.

Even if there is not much demand from the building and the tavern, you should go to give it away today, otherwise if there are customers who want to eat meat, it will be difficult to do business if they can't deliver it.

The ground is so muddy, and since I have money in my hand, I'd better buy a livestock to pull the cart back, so as to save people from being troubled.

"It's said that donkeys are stubborn, and mules are not bad-tempered. Your uncle's house doesn't recognize women, and won't go away even if you whip him. Every time you pull the mill, you have to cover your eyes." Wei Lanxiang mouthed There is still a smile on his face when he said that. This is their family's mule. You don't have to wait for the calf to grow up. If you want to go to the town or the Liangzhang Bridge in the future, there will be a cart to pull it.

Shen Yaoqing said with a smile: "No matter how stubborn a mule is, it will watch people order dishes, and it has not kicked its legs all the way back."

It is said that all living things, mules also have spirits. The mules I bought today are tall and big, of course they are not as good as horses, but they are young and strong, and they are very powerful at first glance. Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing are the reason for the journey back. Two tall men held it by the hand without showing any signs of being stubborn.

"Mother, feed it some fodder and warm water. My eldest brother and I will go to set up the scooter first." Shen Xuanqing didn't take a long look. Fenggu Town is okay, but Jixing Town is far away. Today, we will send the livestock there. No delay.

The two of them went to harness the car, Wei Lanxiang and Shen Yan scooped water and hugged grass, the sun came out from the clouds, and it was quite warm after a while, Lu Gu rolled up his sleeves and went to the chicken coop behind to catch chickens and ducks.

Rabbits are the easiest to catch, just pull them out of their nests. Chickens and ducks flap their wings and run around, making it difficult to catch them.

After everything was done, the chickens, ducks and rabbits were all stuffed into the bamboo cages on the cart, a lot of mud was splashed on Lu Gu's clothes, and his shoes were also stained by wet mud. Well, the ground is full of muddy water.

Shen Xuanqing laughed when he saw that he was in a mess, if not for all the family members, he would still want to rub Lu Gu's hair, why was he so careless.

"When I come back, wash the shoes and clothes together, so as not to have to wash twice." Before leaving, he instructed.

"Okay." Lu Gu nodded, and stood in front of the courtyard with his family, watching his brothers lead the mule cart away, and the boy wanted to follow, but he called him back.

When Wei Lanxiang entered the door, she was full of joy and sighed again: "It's all right now, we also have mules at home."

"Well, in the future, Erqing and eldest brother will be able to ride in a mule cart." Lu Gu is also happy. He has never been in a mule cart before, but he has seen others drive a cart. Same.

It's just that the ground is full of mud today, and if the cart is too heavy, the wheels are easy to sink in, and someone has to help push it, so I didn't sit on it.

Huang'er and Xiao Huang came forward wagging their tails, followed them into the main room, their little paws made a string of mud prints on the ground, Lu Gu wanted to change clothes when he entered the room, and didn't let the dog follow him.

Huang'er is the darker one, bigger than Xiao Huang, and was originally going to be called Erhuang, but he joked and whispered Erhuang and Erqing in front of Shen Xuanqing that night before going to bed, and never dared to mention it again. and.

That night, Shen Xuanqing was so angry that he yelled "Wow". Before he could laugh, his lower lip was bitten. Shen Xuanqing bit him many times as if revenge. Xuan Qing became more and more reckless, and he didn't sleep well that night.

But it's not easy to talk to outsiders about bed matters like this, only the two of them bury it deep in their hearts.
