Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Christmas Tree
"The fawn is not a little black pig, it is not allowed to be raised privately, brother, let it go." Li Ximin rode a horse to Li Minhao's side, got off the horse, squatted beside Li Minhao, poked the fawn with his fingers, looked at Li Minhao with big eyes, and said seriously, as if he had seen through Li Minhao's plan to abduct and sell the deer cubs.
"Can't you run by yourself?" Li Minhao asked, he didn't know anything about this knowledge. Li Ximin nodded seriously, he couldn't run by himself, Li Minhao sighed helplessly, forget it.
Li Minhao put down the two fawns and rode back with a little interest, completely ignoring Li Ximin and abandoning him, Li Ximin pouted and rode the second horse behind the first horse, and made faces at Li Minhao from time to time. "Brother, wait for me." Li Minhao glanced back at the poor fawn.
Li Ximin was quiet for a while, couldn't help it, and came to Li Minhao's side. "Brother, it's Christmas."
"Yes, got it"
"Does my brother buy gifts?"
"Chocolate?"
"No, it's a gift for my sister."
"Ah, tell me what kind of gift do you want?"
"Crystal, is that okay?" Li Ximin said excitedly, and Li Minhao shook his head directly without being polite.
"Of course not, crystals are cabbage everywhere." Li Minhao was speechless, and Li Ximin snorted. "Brother, I'm so stingy, hum, I'm going to tell my aunt and brother that you bullied me."
Li Minhao really doesn't know what to say to this naughty little girl. "How about I make you a healthy recipe as a gift?"
"Will my brother make it for me every day?" Li Ximin's eyes lit up, and he thought of any delicious saliva that was about to flow out, and Li Minhao quickly shook his head.
"That's still it, let's go, let's dig a Christmas tree and bring it back to Sister Nier, or Nier is a good little gift." Li Minhao planned to ignore this little girl, rode back to the farm building, tied a horse, Li Minhao carried a shovel to the hillside woods, and the Christmas tree didn't need to be big. Li Minhao chose a small tree, and after a while, he dug it out and cleaned up the soil. Packed in a wooden box and given to Niel tomorrow.
"My brother is really stingy." Li Minhao's gift to the four little girls was discovered by Li Ximin, and the little girl pouted and muttered quietly.
Li Minhao ignored Li Ximin and brought a stack of packaging bags, all kinds of vegetables were packed, especially tomatoes. Li Ximin squatted on the side with a tomato, and had nothing to say to talk to Li Minhao. "Brother, do you study Korean medicine?" Li Ximin, who was very curious about Li Minhao's ability to make nutritious recipes, asked in a low voice.
"Traditional Chinese medicine, with an old man studying for a while." Li Minhao lowered his head, his voice was a little low, for a secret recipe Li Minhao devilish Xu training and nearly half a year, and followed the old Chinese medicine for nearly half a year. The day the secret recipe arrives. Li Minhao was not happy, but drunk.
"Chinese medicine?" Li Ximin scratched his head, aren't Chinese medicine and Korean medicine the same?
"Yes, Chinese medicine." The gift box sorted out by Li Minhao was moved to the room and put away, and Li Minhao sat on the sofa and rested for a while. Li Ximin found that Li Minhao seemed to be in the wrong mood and did not dare to disturb more. Li Minhao smiled, this little girl is not just innocent and stupid on the surface
"Don't smuggle your mouth, my brother invites you to coffee." Li Minhao locked the small wooden door, closed the doors and windows and said to the construction workers. The two rode one horse and two horses to the village hall, Korea loves coffee, and even some small villages have cafes. In the afternoon, I rode a horse to the café and saw the beautiful melody and the warm sunshine outside the window.
"Two cups of coffee." Li Minhao rubbed Li Ximin's hair, Li Ximin pursed his small mouth and patted Li Minhao's hand disobediently.
"Brother."
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, don't be angry." Li Minhao flattered and helped Li Ximin bring the coffee over and put the sugar, and Li Ximin showed a big smile to Li Minhao.
Li Minhao took the opportunity to hold Li Ximin's little hand, and Li Ximin let out a sigh, and a trace of blush expanded. "Brother, how can you do this?"
"I'm checking your pulse, is your stomach a little uncomfortable, your lips are a little dry, small acne is coming out, and the little girl is on fire. In the evening, stew some loofah, tofu and fish head soup to clear the heat and relieve the fire. Li Minhao nodded at Li Ximin's small pimple, what is hidden in the heart of this big girl.
"It's really a young age to hide so many things in my heart, my heart is so hot, there are some things you can't help with, don't think about it, worry about how old you are to leave things to adults." Li Minhao knocked his eyes to dodge the little girl.
"Brother." Li Ximin withdrew his hand, the coffee spoon stirred the coffee, and he was a little afraid to look at Li Minhao.
"Hurry up and drink, my brother still has something to deal with." Li Minhao plans to go to Park Lichang to ask if he can find two workers, the farm is not managed by anyone, Li Minhao can't help but go out and be on the farm every day. Let's talk about one person, there are so many things to do, I can't be busy.
"Brother, go get busy, I'll go back myself." Lee Hee-min hadn't been here yet, so he was just riding a horse for a walk, and Lee Min-ho led a horse to Park Rich-chang's house to explain his intentions.
"I'm sorry for you, please let me know if there's any news." Lee Min Ho asked Chief Pu Li to help him find two people who knew how to manage the farm. When he came to the seed store again, Li Minhao bought some forage seeds and fertilizers, because he bought a large number of them, so he could only trouble the shopkeeper to help transport them.
Back on the farm, Li Minhao tied a horse to the stable, drove the lawn mower to harvest more weeds, and cleaned up the weeds around after a day's work. This place is used to build a modern steel-framed plastic greenhouse, and Li Minhao is tired and sweaty.
"Brother, drink coffee." Li Ximin made a big pot of coffee and brought it over, and Li Minhao waved his hand. "I'll take a shower first." The whole body is sticky, Li Minhao took a bath and drank Li Ximin brewing coffee, the little girl will be well-behaved, trotting to Li Minhao's side to help pinch his shoulders and knock his back.
"Brother, I'm hungry." Li Minhao felt that his little hands pinching his shoulders were getting weaker and weaker, and finally heard a pitiful voice.
"Got it, the fish head soup is stewed to taste it." Li Minhao opened the pot and stewed for a few hours The fish head soup is rich and fragrant, the milky white fish soup is delicious and abnormal, the fish head soup for dinner, sweet and sour fish pieces, and five grains of rice. Li Ximin ate with a bulging belly and lay down and hummed like a pig.
"Hey, brother, there's a little pig stealing our food." Li Ximin rubbed the skin of her little belly and ran in circles around Xiaolou, eating too much, the little girl was afraid that she would get fat, and she was clamoring to lose weight.
"Aren't you?" Li Minhao thought that Li Ximin was joking, and laughed and teased Li Ximin, Li Ximin snorted twice, really like a little piglet, waving his little fist.
"Brother, really, there really is a little black pig." Li Minhao saw that Li Ximin didn't seem to be telling a lie, and quickly took the electric lamp, and then Li Ximin came to the plastic greenhouse, the light was a little bad, and a black shadow flashed. Li Minhao was stunned, this is not a place to tidy up vegetables by himself during the day, and there are still some green vegetable leaves left on the ground.
Lettuce and the like, Li Minhao pulled the leaves and put them in the gift box, originally thinking that these leaves were fed to the first and second horses, and they were too busy to forget in the afternoon, but they didn't expect to attract thieves.
Li Minhao made a small trap, designed it, squatted to the side and turned off the light. "Brother, can you really catch it?" Li Ximin's eyes widened and he continued to observe the moonlight.
"You'll find out in a moment." Li Minhao held the rope, just waiting for the thief who stole the vegetable leaves to come to the door, snorted a few times, and a thief-headed thief-brain-pig-like animal ran into the trap net designed by Li Minhao. Where is Li Minhao politely slammed it.
"Wow, I caught it, I caught it, my brother is amazing." Li Ximin cheered and ran to the edge of the trap, poked the net pocket with a self-defense stick, and struggled with the small thing.
"Hey, this isn't a little black pig." Li Ximin observed for a while by the lamp and came to the conclusion that of course it was not a little black pig, it was a wild boar.
Li Minhao made up his mind in his heart, this little wild boar said that he couldn't let it go, this thing was too damaging, unlike a deer eating grass. This thing is absolutely damaging the expert, and it's okay to be small, but it's really a scourge when it's big. Li Minhao got a rope and tied the little wild boar, and led the stubborn little wild boar to the cowshed.
"Brother, you won't run away like this." Li Ximin was worried that the little wild boar with big teeth would bite the rope, Li Minhao smiled and got some space spring water mixed with some feed for the little wild boar to eat.
Li Ximin was a little puzzled, but the little wild boar was not polite to Li Ximin at all, and he hummed when he got closer, the little guy was very fierce. "Stinky little black pig."
Li Ximin lost his curiosity, the little black pig was too bad, Li Ximin actually instigated the little wild boar to be slaughtered and roasted to eat, Li Minhao looked speechless and said excitedly how beautiful and delicious the barbecue is Li Ximin, I really didn't find this girl so cruel. The little wild boar just snorted at her a few times, and Li Minhao shrunk his neck.
Early the next morning, Li Minhao's little wild boar rope was untied, and sure enough, the little guy had no intention of escaping, not only that, but also chased Li Minhao one step further.
"Brother, you don't want to take the little black pig back to Seoul, do you?" The little wild boar followed Li Minhao one step at a time, and Li Ximin was a little jealous.
The little guy is very cute, Li Minhao is a little distressed, and he has no choice but to go to the small village next door and ask for help taking care of the farm for a few days.
Li Minhao's salary is high, the chief agreed to come down, Li Minhao locked the small building and the small wooden door of the plastic greenhouse, closed the sheepfold, and tied up the little wild boar, Li Minhao rode a four-wheeled transport motorcycle to the village hall and planned to take the bus to the airport. "Vegetables and gifts need to be checked in."
Lee Min-ho prepared the gifts and vegetables and put them away, and the four-wheeled transport motorcycle let him grow back in the farm help.
After more than an hour of the plane landing at Gimpo Airport, Lee Min-ho and Lee Hee-min, who was puffing out of the small mouth, walked out of the airport with big bags and small bags, causing many people to look at the two of them strangely.
Lee Hee-min hated these eyes and complained that Lee Min-ho had already asked Sister Park Hee-yeon to bring a vegetable gift box, and he still brought so much this time. There is also a Christmas tree, which is really naïve, Li Ximin thinks.
Li Minhao didn't care, and took two taxis to go directly back to Nier's house in Dongdaemun District. "Brother." Xiao Nier excitedly threw herself into Li Minhao's arms, and Li Ximin was completely ignored standing on the side. "Hee Min, you go back first."
"Brother." Lee Hee-min felt that Lee Min-ho was so bad that he abandoned his dear cousin and ran away. Li Ximin stomped his foot hard, snorted and went back to say bad things to his aunt.
