MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 207
It was early summer, the sun was up and it was getting a little hot, and everyone changed into thin shirts.
At noon, the wind sent the fragrance of flowers, and flowers and trees were planted in the yard of the two neighbors, which floated in the wind.
The day was just right, and even he was drowsy, so he simply pulled the thin quilt to cover it and slept with the child.
The business of the butcher shop has been smoothed out, and the various personnel on Xixing Street and Nanji Street have gradually become acquainted. Both of them have adapted to the life in the town. Almost everyone in the corner of Jixing Town knows that there is no more anxiety.
When Lu Gu woke up, the wind was blowing in from the half-opened window. The leaves of the persimmon tree in the yard were shaking. A small vegetable field was cultivated in the open space in the east, and three rows of spring vegetables were planted. It can live, leeks are planted in one row, and shallots and garlic sprouts each occupy half of the row.
The land is not as good as the hometown in the country, but they have enough to eat.
From the window, he saw the good boy lying on his side and sleeping under the shade of a tree, looking very comfortable. People often say that they are sleepy in spring, autumn and summer, and even dogs are no exception.
There is still a little space in the vegetable field. He thought while putting on his shoes, and then he turned around and asked Shen Xuanqing to insert a bamboo pole or a bamboo frame to plant a rattan hanging melon and a rattan long bean. Quick, you don't have to buy it outside.
Winter gourd and pumpkin do not need to be planted. The two have to climb the vines. It’s good to bring them back from the hometown. There are not many places to plant them here.
There is still land in the backyard, and the chickens, ducks and rabbits are pulled and put in the backyard first. The feces are accumulated, and it is convenient to apply fertilizer. After two days, Shen Xuanqing is free, and asks him to reclaim a piece of the backyard, no matter what small vegetables and small vegetables. , and plant some more.
There were not too many turbulent days. Sometimes Shen Yaoqing came to deliver rabbits, and when he was free, he would drive a mule cart to deliver firewood and some vegetables. Wei Lanxiang followed him several times to see his little grandson.
When Lao Yangtou has something to do, he goes out and walks around the shop. When he cooks a meal, he will ask Lao Yangtou to eat it together. After stewing chicken and duck, he will send some to the Yan family.
The Yang family is also busy. The old couple doesn't have to work in the tavern, but the grandchildren and grandsons are all in Jixing Town. They want to help their sons and daughters take care of the children.
Most of the time, it was him, Shen Xuanqing and Ling Ge'er himself.
The child hadn't woken up yet. Seeing that Brother Ling was sleeping soundly, he was sitting in the room and embroidering handkerchiefs. After having a child, sewing needles was always a loophole.
It's also a good thing that their Lingge is good. He usually doesn't cry or make trouble when he has enough to eat and drink. When he cooks, he pulls out the wooden cradle and puts it at the door of the kitchen.
Of course, there are times when Brother Ling is not well behaved. He is cooking, so he starts crying and doesn't want to stay in the cradle. He has to carry the child on his back, for fear of the oil splashing and scalding the child. , or blanched in cold water, or make a pot of nugget soup that has both vegetables and noodles, and it’s enough to eat.
As soon as a flower was embroidered, Brother Ling on the bed started to move.
Lu Gu put down the embroidered stretcher, got up and hugged the child by the bed. It was a little hot in the afternoon, and Xiao Lingjun's face was red from sleep. He touched the child's face and forehead, and found that there was a little sweat on the forehead, and probed the child again. The back was really sweating.
Brother Ling covered a slightly thicker quilt, and tomorrow he would change to a thin quilt, just to cover his stomach and not catch a cold.
"Quick pee." He took the child to pee under the eaves, and whistled and whistled two out of tune.
The good boy lying in the shade opened his eyes and looked, and when he saw that there was nothing to do, he closed his eyes again, no longer moving, and looked at the lazy.
He didn’t have to go out to buy meat and vegetables at home. He wanted to finish making the handkerchief, so he didn’t go to the shop. .
After embroidering the handkerchief and washing the diapers, as well as the clothes he and Shen Xuanqing had changed, he was busy drying the clothes until half-afternoon when he suddenly heard a slap at the back door and the voice of Shen Yaoqing.
The good boy yelled at the back, stood up and ran into the backyard ahead of him.
He got up and walked in a hurry, but he didn't forget to hold the child. The last time he went to the back to open the door, he didn't hold Ling Geer. The child saw him leave and burst into tears.
Before the door was opened, Lu Gu shouted as he walked, "Big brother?"
"It's me." Shen Yaoqing agreed, and added, "I chopped some firewood yesterday, and I put down a fishing net at night. I got up early to collect a few fish and give you two."
When he was talking, the good boy recognized the person and stopped barking, so Lu Gu opened the back door.
Needless to say, on the wooden threshold, Lu Gu took two steps back, and Shen Yaoqing took the threshold himself, led the mule cart in first, and then closed the back door.
"Er Qing is in the shop?" Shen Yaoqing asked casually after closing the door.
"Well, it's over after lunch." Lu Gu agreed. Seeing that he was about to unload the firewood, he said, "Brother, take a break, don't worry, I'll go get some tea."
Shen Yaoqing untied the hemp rope on the trolley and said with a smile, "I drove over here, I didn't run a few steps, I'm not tired, I'll be quick after unloading."
"Okay, I'll pour you some tea." Lu Gu hurriedly went to the front and picked up the teapot and bowl. It was hot, and he was thirsty all the way.
There was a wooden bucket on the ground. There was only half of the water left, and two fishes were crowded together. When he saw it, he hugged Linger with one hand and walked to the well with the bucket. Bucket of water, add some to the fish.
After Shen Yaoqing untied the hemp rope, he drank the poured bowl of tea in one go. He whistled, smiled and teased Brother Ling who was looking over, and went to the firewood room to hold firewood.
"Can big brother eat at home?" Lu Gu came over and asked.
"I've eaten, I'll be on the road after I've eaten." Shen Yaoqing said while working.
"Is everything okay at home?" Lu Gu asked again.
He came out of the firewood room and said with a smile, "It's all right, just that **** Zhao'er, who frightened the chickens a couple of days ago, used a bamboo stick to chase the chickens, and drove them all over the place. Running with a chicken, who would have thought it would fall and break his nose."
"Broken nose?" Lu Gu hurriedly asked.
"If it doesn't matter, I just rubbed the skin and stopped bleeding a little bit. It will be scabbed in two days." Shen Yaoqing said as he picked up the firewood.
Lu Gu was relieved, and he said, "I made a bellyband for Ling Ge'er two days ago, and I also made one for Zhao'er. I will bring it back today and wear it when I sleep at night, so I won't be afraid of getting cold from my stomach."
Shen Yaoqing, who entered the firewood room, agreed, "Okay."
Lu Gu asked him again if he was hungry. There was old hen soup stewed at noon and pastries at home.
He had eaten when he came, and was not hungry. After unloading the firewood, because Shen Xuanqing was at the shop, the two took the child and locked the door, leaving the good boy to watch the house.
When the two of them arrived, Shen Xuanqing was weighing eggs. It was cooler now. There were more people going out than at noon. Several customers came one after another. , business is lighter than in the morning.
After sitting down and saying a few homely words, Shen Yaoqing said: "I went to the building to deliver the rabbits the day before yesterday, and I don't want Huang Zhenchuan to see him turn into the alley, but it doesn't matter if he sees it, his wife knows about it, and it has spread in the village these two days. already."
He was usually polite and saw Uncle Huang Zhenchuan screaming, but the rumors in the past two days made him really unhappy.
The brothel is not a good place. Even if they only deal with the kitchen, their reputation is not very good. Except for their relatives and clansmen, they all talk to the villagers about the kitchen, and they fool the past. This is the way to make money. , it is difficult for others to inquire.
Countrymen shave food in the fields, and few go to the town often, but there is no such thing as an impermeable wall in the world. They were known to send rabbits to the brothel, and they had expected it early in the morning.
Shen Xuanqing was not flustered, but frowned slightly.
The two brothers are not afraid of shadows, but sometimes gossip should be paid attention to.
Shen Yaoqing said again: "Mother, Quan Ziniang, and Aunt Miao have all said, we just sent it to the back kitchen, and even went to Xia Fulang's house, and chatted with Aunt Shouyi for a while. It's my duty, how can I mess up? I went down to meet Huang Zhenchuan, and his wife was there. I asked in front of him if his wife was talking nonsense. Huang Zhenchuan was embarrassed and scolded a few words. Broken, it stopped a lot."
Huang Zhenchuan has the problem of bullying the soft and being afraid of the hard. The second room of the Shen family is doing well now, and the two men are young and strong. Besides, the Shen family and the Lin Zhongcai family are relatives, so he doesn't dare to offend him. Feel shameless.
"The geese are getting bigger, and my mother has been arguing recently and wanted to find a good husband's family for her. After all, the brothel has a bad reputation. I think it doesn't matter." Shen Yaoqing is the eldest son and can be said to be the pillar of the family. Think more.
Now that they have a butcher shop, sometimes several taverns and restaurants in Jixing Town will come to buy rabbits, and they will look for the boss, but they are not worried about selling them. Shen Xuanqing thought about it and said, "Forget it, I will look for Luo Biao said, I asked him to have a drink, and he was bothered at the beginning."
"That's for sure." Shen Yaoqing nodded, he came here today to say this, took a sip of tea and said, "I brought a rabbit with me when I sold firewood, and it was the same as I was shouting and selling in Fenggu Town."
This year, I raised more rabbits. After raising more and more rabbits, the two of them wanted to talk to a serious restaurant because they were worried that the brothel was good. At that time, they were afraid that there were not enough brothels and shops, so they gave up. When the bunny grows up, you can ask if you want it in the tavern.
Because of the various chores at home, Shen Yaoqing didn't stay long, and drove the mule cart back again.
The last time I ate the fish, Lao Yangtou brought it. He and some old men in the town caught a few fish by the river. After returning home in the evening, Lu Gu instructed Shen Xuanqing to clean up the fish and hold Ling Geer himself. Didn't do it.
When the fish was killed, the good boy stood close and looked down, and even lowered his head to sniff the scraped fish scales.
If you don't send rabbits to the brothel, you naturally have to tell Luo Biao. In two days, the rabbits in the shop are sold out, and there are a few chickens, ducks and some eggs left.
After working in the morning, I sold three chickens and ducks and a few catties of eggs, and left Lu Gu to look at the shop. Shen Xuanqing drove the mule cart back to Fenggu Town to find Luo Biao after cleaning up. After returning home, he might just go to Wang Li again. The village Li Zhuzi's family brought a fat pig over and slaughtered and sold pork tomorrow.
As soon as Shen Xuanqing left, Lu Gu was playing in the shop with Ling Geer in his arms. It was only him and the child to eat at noon, and he didn't have to go home to make it. He could just eat a bowl of noodles next door. He brought the child's milk fruit, at most When eating noodles, let him make a poached egg. He and Ling share one is enough.
He guarded the shop with peace of mind in Jixing Town, Shen Xuanqing rushed all the way back to Fenggu Town, put the mule cart in the small courtyard of Luo Biao's rental residence, and the two went to the tavern to have a drink.
