Nanshanxia

Chapter 8

The old lady Zhu cleared her throat, "You all know that today, Bai Zhen and I are going to take the women in the village to sell cloth in the town, and the three old boys in the family will still go to the town to sell tofu, so the only ones left in the family are Chunya, Ah Yan and Yuan Xiao, it’s still sunny today, the soybean fields must be short of water again, Chunya, you and Yuan Xiao go to water the fields.”

"What?" Chun Ya, who was immersed in the delicious food, was almost scared away by the old lady Zhu's sudden arrangement. She stared at her almond eyes and kept asking her mother for help, and she didn't forget to describe it on the sidelines. She said, "Grandma, don't I need to go to the town to help you sell cloth."

"No need, usually you go to watch the fun, you can clean up at home today!" The old lady Zhu's face was a little displeased, Zhu Chunya was looking forward to going to the town every day, nothing more than wanting to do less Some farm work, in the past she just turned a blind eye and closed one eye, but now that there are fewer people and more work, Zhu Chunya can't help but make nonsense anymore.

Zhu Chunya remembered the scene when she was ordered not to eat by the old lady Zhu before, and she didn't dare to say anything. She could only look at her mother helplessly, lowered her head and began to "suck" and "sip" soup again.

The atmosphere at the scene became quiet again. Few people in Lao Zhu's house dared to challenge the authority of the old lady at the dinner table, unless that person didn't want to eat anymore. Zhu Yan stared at the quiet people present when he was full. Taking another look at Yuan Xiao, who had nothing to do with himself and was drinking soup, he broke the calm with a dry cough.

"Grandma, Yuan Xiao and I will go. This place of care is our man's job. It's okay to lock the house without leaving someone to watch the house. Let Sister Chun follow you to the town." Zhu Yan didn't do it for the sake of Zhu Chunya made a rescue, but he didn't want to stay at home to look after the house any longer. He was getting moldy after recuperating at home these days. He and Yuan Xiao took care of Doudi and he could try his own tricks by the way.

"Ah Yan, you don't need to do this. Auntie will let your sister Chun Ya go." Bai Zhen was very grateful for Zhu Yan's help, and only Zhu Yan dared to speak at this juncture. Dumb own man.

The old lady Zhu also followed Bai Zhen's words and refused Zhu Yan, "Ah Yan, your body is just a little stronger, and the sun is scorching in this field. If you hurt your vitality again, you will peel off Grandma's skin again. What about you?" The last time it happened in the field, I don't want you to have any more troubles."

Zhu Yan understood the meaning of the old lady Zhu's words. The last time the original owner was working in the field with Yuan Xiao, but stayed by the river and fell into the water. It seems that this incident had a great impact on the old lady Zhu. But he can't stop working in the field because his family is worried and afraid. He calmed down and tried to persuade the old lady Zhu again: "Grandma, I promise I won't do the same thing as last time. Now that I'm not stupid and I know how to work, just give me a chance, as for Sister Chun, can you just find another job in the future?"

"Yes, grandma, I've been staying with Ah Yan at home during this period of time, and I have less work to do. Let Ah Yan and I go to the field today, and I will definitely not let Ah Yan have any accidents again." Yuan Xiao Xiao realized that Zhu Yan really wanted to go out, so she begged along with Zhu Yan.

"Taking care of Ah Yan at home is more useful than doing any work." The old lady Zhu's stern face loosened a little, she recalled what her old man said to her in the house last night, Zhu Yan has recovered now, no Stupid, sooner or later I will start a family and start a career, I can't just pamper him and tie him up like this, a man's ambition is everywhere, she can't ruin Zhu Yan's growth because of her love, she was silent for a long time, sighed and compromised: " OK, then you two go, remember not to get tired."

"Don't worry, grandma, I'm getting stronger." Zhu Yan grinned at the old lady Zhu.

The old lady Zhu is the proper Sun Kong. She saw Zhu Yan smiled, and finally there was a smile on her gloomy face. After seeing this, everyone felt relieved and continued to eat.

After breakfast, Zhu Yan sent off the old lady Zhu and other family members, locked the door of the house, and went to his own bean field together with Yuan Xiao.Lao Zhu's land and other farmers' land are all under the Nanshan Mountain. Every family in Jinsha Village has to walk a certain distance to work on the land.

On the road, Zhu Yan looked at the flowers and plants around him, and they were not growing well. Not only that, the crops in the fields along the road also looked downcast, and Zhu Yan couldn't help being a little puzzled, "The land in our village does not seem to be nutritious. High."

"What? Ah Yan, what did you say?" Yuan Xiao didn't hear Zhu Yan's words clearly because he was on his way seriously.

While Yuan Xiao was asking himself, Zhu Yan corrected what he said just now, "I mean, the seedlings in our field are not growing strong, is it because of the land?"

"Well, it's like this. It rained heavily a few years ago, and natural disasters washed away the land and houses in our village. After that, our land has no energy, and the harvest is not good." Yuan While walking, Xiao talked to Zhu Yan about the previous situation, "No matter how much manure we put on the land, it's still not good to grow anything. Lizheng and the clan leaders of all ethnic groups worked together for a period of time, and asked everyone to plant crops that can withstand tossing gone."

It was a hot day, and the wind blowing was hot. Zhu Yan wiped the sweat off his face, looked around, and remembered his spring water plug-in. Since he drank the spring water, he felt much more comfortable. Since people can drink it, Does that mean that the crops can also be drunk? At the same time, he thought of the vegetable garden he watered in the middle of the night. The vegetables did not have any adverse reactions due to his own spring water. So can the soybean seedlings on the ground also have a try?

Zhu Yan calculated all the way, but fortunately he was accompanied by Yuan Xiao, so he didn't go over his head. Zhu Yan looked at the weak bean seedlings swaying in the wind in his field, and his desire to show his talents became stronger, but now that Yuan Xiao was by his side, he Rushing to show off his stunts might frighten Yuan Xiao. After all, Yuan Xiao is a timid young man, so he should be more considerate.

"Ah Yan, I'm going to weed the field, you just stand here and wait." Yuan Xiao put on the straw sandals he woven, rolled up his sleeves to reveal his smooth and delicate arms, and then put them on with familiarity. He took off the straw hat used to block the sun, and when he stepped into the soybean field, he couldn't help but paused again, turned his head and looked at Zhu Yan worriedly, "Ah Yan, our house is close to the river, you can't Let's go to the river again."

"Let me work with you, so you don't have to worry about me." Zhu Yan looked at Yuan Xiao's childish and pretentious little face, and he spoke with a lot of gentleness. He picked up the hoe Regardless of Yuan Xiao's stop, he jumped into the ground, but unexpectedly, Yuan Xiao grabbed his sleeve.

"Wait, I'll weave straw sandals for you. It's hard to clean up the cloth shoes we wear when they fall off the ground." After Yuan Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and went to the old tree opposite to cut some branches, and sat under the tree to give Zhu Yan weaves straw sandals.

Zhu Yan stood aside and stared at Yuan Xiao stupidly. Every time he observed Yuan Xiao carefully, he would find that Yuan Xiao seemed to be more beautiful than before. Such a handsome and capable young man would probably be chased by many girls in modern times. , but now this young man turned out to be his foster husband!Zhu Yan began to think wildly again, at this time Yuan Xiao also finished weaving the straw shoes and handed them to Zhu Yan, "Ah Yan, time is a little tight, I didn't weave them carefully, you wear them first, and I will weave more for you when I get home later." A few pairs for you to wear on the ground."

"No, no, this is already very delicate." Zhu Yan rubbed the straw sandals in his hand, with a smile on his handsome face, if he hadn't been in a hurry to get off the ground, he would definitely be reluctant to wear such delicate straw sandals.

Zhu Yan put on straw sandals and a straw hat, and started weeding the field with Yuan Xiao. Zhu's land was very large, and he and Yuan Xiao didn't clear the weeds until almost afternoon.

"Hey, it's finally over. Everyone said that our land is not good, but the weeds grow taller if we don't clean them up for a day. How can there be any reason for this?" Yuan Xiao, who had been bending over to work in the field for a long time, straightened up He raised his hands above his head and stretched fiercely, and there was a moan as low as a cat's moan during the movement.

Zhu Yan grinned when he saw Yuan Xiao like that, and stretched his waist like Yuan Xiao's. The delicate and naive appearance, on the contrary, has the feeling of being a cute and silly big man, which makes Yuan Xiao purse his mouth and stay silent.

Of course, Zhu Yan didn't know what Yuan Xiao was laughing at, he just answered Yuan Xiao from the sidelines, "Grandma is right to let us take care of the land, you see our land is not fertile, let weeds take up some space , how can there be a place for bean seedlings to live?"

"Yeah! Grandma said the same thing." Yuan Xiao agreed from the side, and couldn't stop looking at Zhu Yan. Ever since Zhu Yan was no longer stupid, his whole person has changed. Handsome, and even smarter.

Zhu Yan, who suddenly had nothing to do, turned his head and met Yuan Xiao's probing eyes. He touched his chin subconsciously, recalling what he had just said, for fear that he would expose something, but after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't feel that Where did he say something wrong, he couldn't help but look at Yuan Xiao with a guilty conscience, "Yuan Xiao, why are you looking at me?"

"Ah, it's okay, I just think Ah Yan looks better than before." Yuan Xiao squinted his eyes and smiled innocently, making it impossible to doubt what he said at the moment. When Zhu Yan nodded and continued to play with the seedlings, he took the initiative to say: "Ah Yan, it's probably afternoon now, let's eat some dry food to rest our stomachs!"

After what Yuan Xiao said, Zhu Yan got up belatedly, looked up at the sun that had already started to set, and echoed: "That's right, and the two of us have almost finished our work, so let's do it together." It's almost time to water the seedlings, let's eat first!"

It is said that eating is actually holding two corn tortillas to satisfy hunger. Fortunately, Zhu Yan has never been picky eaters, and he also eats the corn tortillas in his hand with relish, but Yuan Xiao's round face chewing on tortillas is somewhat thoughtful. .

"Yuan Xiao, what's wrong with you?"

"Well, it's okay, I just feel that the dry food for the two of us has no taste."

Zhu Yan felt that this was an opportunity, a chance for him to test the cheating. He rolled his eyes and hit the snake with the stick, "I think so too. It would be great if there is fruit to eat."

Yuan Xiao, who has been living under the fence all year round, immediately responded to Zhu Yan's advice, and he had an idea: "Why don't I pick some mulberry fruits for you, the mulberry fruits in the mountains are delicious now."

"Well, then you go, I'll wait for you here." Zhu Yan was very happy with Yuan Xiao's cooperation, and when Yuan Xiao began to hesitate again, he repeatedly assured, "Don't worry, I will definitely be fine."

With Zhu Yan's reassurance, Yuan Xiao quickly ran to the woods, and Zhu Yan seized this opportunity and hurriedly tried his own plug-in in his own field.

Although Zhujia had a lot of land, he couldn't stand Zhu Yan's adjustable spring water plug-in. After watering the entire land, he filled the bucket he brought over with water in case Yuan Xiao came back to ask later.

Here Yuan Xiao is also racing against time, picked some mulberry fruits and scorpions, and walked quickly into the ground. To be honest, he still doesn't trust Zhu Yan. Even if Zhu Yan is not stupid, he still can't let go. He did this out of gratitude to Zhu Yan's mother, Zhou Guixiang, but he didn't know that everything was changing quietly.
