Chapter 223

stretched out his long arm, hugged Su Jinyao tightly in his arms, lowered his head and kissed him. After kissing fiercely and greasy, he said badly: "Since Jinyao is so anxious, let's stay and sleep together." ”

Su Jinyao didn't answer, and didn't bother to explain at all. Anyway, she knew that as long as Gu Xuebin caught a little loophole in himself, he would not let it go easily. Suo (xìng) She directly played brutally, raised her hand and clamped Gu Xuebin's jaw, her hand was slightly vigorous, and she deliberately said viciously: "Want to sleep with me?" I'll talk about winning first. The winner is king, the loser is warm (chuáng), do you want to try? ”

"Jin Yao, you are cheating, untie my (xué) Dao first and then fight, I won't lose a point to you." After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he felt that something was wrong again. looked at Su Jinyao's fierce eyes, and immediately changed his words: "Okay, let you beat, let you scold, I'd rather give you warmth (chuáng)?" I don't beat women, and my daughter-in-law can't fight back, and she doesn't scold back. ”

"Why did you change your rhetoric? Didn't you just say that you wanted me to untie your (xué) tract and fight with me? Did you not treat me as a woman at all when you were fighting? Yes? Yes??? ”

Su Jinyao's series of questions made Gu Xuebin (bī) take two steps back. Deliberately patted (xiōng) mouth, and said with a scared look: "Okay, I know what is called Hedong Lion's Roar." Jin Yao, you cover the sky, and I sigh for my husband. I promise, in the future, if you beat me, I will warm (chuáng), and you will serve Jinyao comfortably. ”

The so-called angry people who don't hit smiling faces, Su Jinyao was originally pretending to be angry, but now seeing Gu Xuebin's flattering appearance, she really can't pretend to be able to do it. He glared at him and said, "Let's go, hurry up and go back and prepare some pig food for you, and I'll go back." ”

After speaking, Su Jinyao told again: "I've been running with me for a day during the day, and I haven't had a good rest, don't run around at night, just sleep well at home." Su Jinyao was afraid that Gu Xuebin would take advantage of his uncle's absence and run to the back window of his house.

Gu Xuebin squinted his eyes and nodded with a smile, and then came up and said, "I knew that Jinyao felt sorry for me." I must obediently sleep at home. But...... Jinyao, aren't you going to bother me too? ”

Su Jinyao listened to Gu Xuebin's words, pretended to be surprised, and asked rhetorically, "Why should I come?" I'm tired after a long day of running. ”

"Jinyao, aren't you going to climb a window or something while I'm asleep?" Gu Xuebin put on a disappointed look, as if it was night.

"Okay, it's home, don't get tired. Obediently go fetch water and wash your hands, I'll make a fire and see what kind of food I can prepare for you. Su Jinyao pushed Gu Xuebin away, not daring to get close to him anymore. I'm afraid that if it continues like this, she really won't be able to leave.

Gu Xuebin is also a person who knows how to get to the point, what jokes can be made, and to what extent there is a bottom line. He was extremely eager to be closer to Su Jinyao, but he also knew that now was really not the time. So I was even more reluctant to hurt her.

Su Jinyao lit a fire with neat hands and feet, washed rice, and cooked. Then boil a pot of water and blanch a few shiitake mushrooms. He also took down the ròu (wax) that was hanging in the corner of the wooden house, cut them into cubes, and made a marinade with the shiitake mushrooms. When the rice is steamed, it is served in a bowl and topped with the braised rice made of shiitake mushroom (ròu), which is a simple rice with a lid and poured with ròu.

Gu Xuebin has always said that he is not a picky eater, but Su Jinyao's stir-fry skills are really good, and a simple braised (ròu) rice can make him very happy.

While eating, Gu Xuebin said, "Jinyao, why don't you accompany me to finish eating before leaving." ”

"Let me cook for you for a while, let me eat with you for a while, and if I continue to grind like this, I really don't have to go home." Su Jinyao looked at the sun that had already set on the mountain, and said, "I really should go back, remember to take a medicinal bath with medicinal decoction after you eat." Now that it's finally working, don't stop. ”

Gu Xuebin agreed, and had to watch Su Jinyao leave. But suddenly remembered something, and stopped her: "Jinyao, the water you asked me to collect is already a tube, do you want to show it to you?" ”

"Is there already that much?" Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Give it to me." Just take it back and study it to see what this does. What my mother said will certainly not be unreasonable. ”

Gu Xuebin put down the chopsticks in his hand and went to the house to get a bamboo tube, handed it to Su Jinyao and said, "It's really not easy to collect, so it's barely a tube after so long." But the water is colorless and odorless, and I never knew what to do with it. ”

Su Jinyao took it and gently checked it, judging from the sound of the water inside, it was indeed not a full tube. But since it's for research, it doesn't matter if it's more or less, just use as much as you want. Su Jinyao was planning to use the water of these bamboo insects to try to mix it in the prescription to see if it would increase the efficacy of the medicine.

After taking the bamboo tube, Su Jinyao was about to leave, and Gu Xuebin asked again: "Then do you want to continue collecting?" This water is really not easy to preserve, and it is easy to attract insects. Be careful when you open the bamboo tube so that you don't get bitten by bugs. I don't know where the insect got in, it's such a big one, it suddenly appeared, and it bites. ”

"Bugs are going to get in there? And not a bamboo insect? Su Jinyao frowned, feeling that this matter was a little strange.

Gu Xuebin washed his hands, picked up the rice bowl again, and said while eating: "It's not a bamboo insect, it's a kind of insect that I haven't seen, a reddish-brown (shēn) seed with a pair of ao, and it bites." But I can't fly without wings, but I don't know how to get into this bamboo tube. You know, I'm afraid that this hard-won water will be spilled and dry, so I cover the lid very tightly. But as long as you don't move this bamboo tube for two or three days, when you open it again, one or two will crawl out, and you will be a fierce bite when you catch your fingers. ”

Su Jinyao's mind flashed with inspiration, and she vaguely thought of something, but it was still a little bit of a key place, so she couldn't think clearly. He asked, "Biting your hand?" Is it toxic? ”

Gu Xuebin said: "If it's poisonous, can I still talk to you unscathed?" I was bitten once, but it was just swollen for a while, and it was fine. It's like a bee sting. ”

After hearing this, Su Jinyao's brows were not stretched, but even more twisted into a pimple, and she asked again: "Then did you catch this kind of bug, or did you kill it directly?" Is there a corpse to show me? ”

"I crushed them all to death. It's just a bug, I didn't want to leave it for you to see. After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, it was very strange to look at Su Jinyao's table (qíng), and he also felt that this matter should not be so simple, so he asked Su Jinyao: "Jinyao, don't sell Guanzi, what did you think of, but let's hear it." ”

Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "I can't be sure yet, but I think this kind of bug is the key we are looking for." ”

"The key?" Gu Xuebin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked Su Jinyao: "Do you think this kind of insect is the kind of medicine that your mother gave to my uncle?" ”

"Do you think so?" Su Jinyao also became excited, grabbed Gu Xuebin's hand and said, "Now that you have seen the live and the dried, do you think these two insects will be the same kind?" ”

"Like, very similar, but I'm not sure." Gu Xuebin thought about it, and finally shook his head. Because dried things are often very different from fresh ones, the color, smell, and size will change.

Although Su Jinyao was anxious, there was no other way to prove it. She had never seen this kind of insect herself, let alone that kind of dried medicine. Second, even if the mother asked Daddy Gao to guard the bamboo forest here to attract this kind of insect, then it will take a process to dry. But Su Jinyao didn't know how her mother made the medicine, and whether she added other prescriptions.

It's just that now fantasy is not a way, Su Jinyao reached out and pulled out the stopper of the bamboo tube. I knocked on the bamboo tube with my hand, wanting to see if there could be any insects like Gu Xuebin said. Pharmaceuticals let her see what is alive, and she can also have some clues.

However, some cases (qíng) backfire, and when she wants to see it, there is nothing. Su Jinyao found another bamboo skewer and put it into the bamboo tube and stirred the water inside, but not even a small insect crawled out.

"Forget it, you can eat. I took this bamboo tube back. Su Jinyao had to give up this idea for the time being, put the stopper back on, and prepared to leave.

Gu Xuebin thought for a while, and then stopped Su Jinyao and said, "Jinyao, this bamboo tube should be placed here with me." In case that kind of insect is unique to the bamboo forest, if you take the bamboo tube away, I am afraid that even if it is left for ten days and half a month, that kind of insect will not be born. And you keep the bamboo tube with me, and if I see that kind of bug again, I will catch it and show it to you. ”

Su Jinyao thought about it and felt that what Gu Xuebin said was right, so she sighed and took the bamboo tube back.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xuebin took the bamboo tube and smiled slightly, it was even more brilliant than the sunset on the sky, and he actually said: "With this, Jinyao, you have to remember to come to me from time to time, don't miss such a rare lack of insects." ”

It turned out that Gu Xuebin said this in order to make himself come often. However, what he said was very reasonable, and Su Jinyao couldn't refute it.

"Okay, I'm full, I'll send you first, Jinyao." Gu Xuebin put the bamboo tube away and hurriedly ran out to send Su Jinyao back.

Su Jinyao refused, but he insisted on it. In the end, I had to say: "Then I will send you out of the bamboo forest, and you can ride a horse and go." ”

Helpless, Su Jinyao had no choice but to agree, and was sent out by Gu Xuebin by the hand.

"Alright, let's go back." led the horse, Su Jinyao was really leaving.

No matter how reluctant Gu Xuebin was, he could only watch Su Jinyao go home.

When I got home, it was getting late. Xiao Cheng'er squatted on the edge of the small vegetable patch to dig earthworms, dug one out and threw it into the chicken coop to feed the chickens. Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, he hurriedly ran out to greet Su Jinyao.

Su Jinyao jumped off the horse, clapped her hands and said, "Today is a busy day, but I only spent money and didn't see any money, and I didn't bring any gifts back." ”

Xiao Cheng'er shook his head and said, "How can there be a reason to bring gifts back when you go out." I came to greet the second sister because I was afraid that you would be too tired to leave for such a day. Come, I'll help you lead the horse. "Taking the reins, the little city went to tie the horse.

Su Xiangui also pushed open the window when he heard Xiaocheng'er's words, and said to Su Jinyao: "Jinyao is back?" (chūn) Niu and Siping have paid the account and gone back, saying that you don't need to go out of your way to see the new house, she and Siping have already seen it, no problem, you can rest at home. ”

Su Jinyao called "Dad" and said, "It's okay, I'm not tired." Today, I put those baskets in a store and sold them on my behalf. I didn't do much else. I'll go to the kitchen and help my eldest sister cook. ”

"I don't need your help, the food is ready." Sophie's voice came, and then she came out with a scoop of water, poured it in the copper basin, and said to Su Jinyao: "Wash your face with warm water to make it more comfortable, don't run all day is sweaty, and then wash your face with cold water will be excited." ”

Su Jinyao agreed, scooped two scoops of cold water and washed her face, and the warm water was really comfortable after washing her face. Cool water can make people sober, while (rè) water can relieve fatigue, a kind of lazy and comfortable feeling.

After washing her face, Xiao Cheng'er was already helping Sophie set the table. Su Jinyao also came to help, and Su Xiangui walked out in a wheelchair by himself.

Today's dinner didn't have (chūn) Niu and Siping together, so I made it a little more simple and casual. Su Jinyao was not a picky eater, and said to Su Xiangui while eating: "Dad, I grabbed another pair of medicine for you today, it should be better than the last time." Use it from the beginning of the evening. No matter what the effect is, you have to tell me completely, good or bad, and don't hide it for fear that I'm worried, okay? ”

Su Xiangui nodded and said, "Dad understands, since you are a doctor, Dad will naturally listen to you." Whatever it is, it will tell you. ”

Su Jinyao was relieved, and asked again: "Count (rì) son, today Sangouzi and his father should go to pull the adobe bricks, have you pulled it back?" Have you told the adobe ordered by Zhoujiayao again? ”

Su Xiangui said: "It's already been delivered, and it's all unloaded from the new house." Sangouzi's father also said that Zhoujiayao agreed to burn a few more bricks for us, and he was not in a hurry to give the money, and it was okay to settle the settlement together when the last car was pulled. ”

Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Then I'll take the time to take a look." Don't wait until the end to give the money, sooner or later the money will have to be given, and it's not interesting to drag people around. After all, Zhoujiayao still has to pay so many workers monthly money. ”

Su Xiangui had no opinion, he felt that what Su Jinyao said was also right. If you owe people money for adobe bricks, you can't say that the houses have been built, so you can't give it yet.

Now that the affairs of the family (qíng) are all arranged on the track, Su Jinyao has nothing to worry about (qíng). Just thinking about how to go on the several roads she has paved, the more money she can make a living, the better, Su Jinyao is not afraid of more money.

The next few days were also very peaceful, and the new house was changing day by day. Finally, the beams were put on, and the frame was erected again. When the house frame is erected, the new house is completed as soon as the tiles are built.

For this reason, Master Gu also came to Su Jinyao to discuss: "Little owner, look at the day the new house is built, should you put a firecracker?" These are all rules handed down from above, and the picture is auspicious and (rì) is also prosperous. ”

I also let go of a firecracker when I was on the beam before, but it was brought by Master Gu himself on the day of the beam. He said that this is the rule of the upper beam, and it is indispensable to put such a hanging. Now that the house has been built, this firecracker has to be taken care of by the Su family themselves.

Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Thank you, Master Gu, for reminding me, this is a must." Tomorrow, I'll go out and buy a hang-up and come back. Come and hang a long and loud one, just figure (rè) auspicious. ”

Hearing Su Jinyao say this, Master Gu said: "Then I will show your family the yellow calendar when I go back today, and help your family choose the best (rì) son to complete." There is no difference of two or three days before and after, so for the sake of good luck, you just wait. However, I can't delay and ask for your wages in vain, and I'm almost busy here, so I'll let those helpers go to the other side to dig the foundation for you. ”

Speaking of this, Master Gu smiled and said, "Little owner, I said that the two-story restaurant you want to build is where did you choose the location?" I asked Siping a few times, but he refused to say, and he was afraid that I would rob your family's feng shui treasure land. ”

Su Jinyao smiled when she heard this, and said: "Master Gu is too careful, my place is relatively remote, and there is no place name or anything, I am afraid that Master Gu will not know." Didn't I wait for the house to be built, and then I took you directly to see it, why are you still in a hurry? Don't worry, this big canteen is for you Master Gu, and you will still have to come to Master Gu when you build a two-story small building in the future. ”

In fact, Master Gu asked after him like this, that is, he was afraid that the boiled duck would fly. It's really not a big project like this. He alone took two apprentices, and the most he usually did was to repair an earthen wall and build a wing house for people in each village. Now that one after another has been built, and each one is bigger than the other, he is naturally afraid that others will rob him of such a good job.

Now that Su Jinyao has given him a guarantee, Master Gu is relieved, and naturally he doesn't ask any more. At dinner in the evening, Su Jinyao said that the new house was going to set off firecrackers, and Su Xiangui also said: "Yes, fortunately, Master Gu thought about it and reminded us that we have to put firecrackers, otherwise we will really forget." ”

Xiao Cheng'er hurriedly swallowed a mouthful of food and said anxiously: "Dad, second sister, when it's time to set off firecrackers, can I do this firecracker?" ”

Su Jinyao could still agree to this small request, so she nodded and said, "Naturally, it's okay." But be safe, and if you ignite it, get out of the way and don't rush forward. ”

Xiao Cheng'er was full of promise, and his face was happy.

Seeing that the meal was about to be finished, I heard someone knocking on the courtyard door outside, and a male voice asked, "Is this Liu?" ”
