The next day, Liu Meiniang was going to go to the mountain to have a look. After all, the family's business will continue after the New Year.

Last year, the agriculture of the dike-pond on the mountain was quite successful, and Liu Meiniang was going to take a look and think about how to develop next year.

The things that the family needs for the New Year are almost done, and there is no need to be busy anymore.

"Ji Rin, you accompany Mei Niang to go around the mountain." Seeing that Liu Meiniang was about to go out, Zhang Li pushed Zhang Jirin, and Zhang Jirin followed.

"You say, I remember that your eldest brother was very smart when he was a child, why has he become so stupid now." Looking at the backs of Zhang Jilin and Liu Meiniang, Zhang Li muttered to himself.

"Mother, don't dislike it, no matter how stupid you are, you gave birth to it." Zhang Jihan said with a grin.

"Alas, you said you and Mei Niang ......" Zhang Li asked Zhang Jihan.

"I think my sister-in-law likes my eldest brother a lot." Zhang Jihan touched his chin and said.

"How do you know?" Zhang Li asked puzzled.

"Look at my mother, Xue Gongzi and his sister-in-law have known each other for a long time, and you can see that he is hungry for his sister-in-law, but the sister-in-law has always been lukewarm to Xue Gongzi, it seems that they are friends, how long have the eldest brother and sister-in-law known each other...... Well, I saw that there was a play. ”

Zhang Jihan pretended to be deep, and Zhang Li slapped Zhang Jihan.

"Hurry up and chop the firewood in the backyard, what nonsense." Although Zhang Li scolded angrily, his heart was happy.

"Mother, the firewood is all chopped." Zhang Jihan said coquettishly like a child.

"Then go and do something else." Zhang Li glanced at Zhang Jihan.

"Oh." Zhang Jihan responded and jumped away quickly.

Liu Meiniang and Zhang Jilin went up the mountain one after the other.

"On this mountain?" Zhang Jirin looked at the well-organized mountain and asked in surprise.

"Well, this one is planted with mulberry trees, and then there are fish ponds over there, and chickens are raised over there." Liu Meiniang briefly introduced Zhang Jirin.

"Hmm." Zhang Jilin nodded, but he had a consideration in his heart, this was the first time he had seen such a planting method. And all aspects can be comprehensively utilized, and Zhang Jilin's eyes when he looked at Liu Meiniang also had a different color.

"Let's go down from here, and I'll take a look at this hill next door." Liu Meiniang pointed to the mountain next to her and said to Zhang Jirin.

"Okay."

When going down the mountain, Liu Meiniang accidentally slipped a little, Zhang Jilin was quick and stepped forward to help Liu Meiniang.

"Be careful." Zhang Jirin's hand was directly wrapped around Liu Meiniang's waist, and the two looked extremely ambiguous.

"Thank you." Liu Meiniang quickly got up from Zhang Jilin's arms and walked forward, but her face was hot.

And Zhang Jilin stood in place, there seemed to be a fragrance of Liu Meiniang in the air, remembering that he was holding Liu Meiniang's waist just now, Liu Meiniang's waist was thin and soft, this was the first time in so many years that Zhang Jilin and a woman were so close.

"This hill is also you...... Our family's? Zhang Jilin asked.

"Well, I just bought it not long ago." Liu Meiniang replied.

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Zhang Jirin nodded.

The two walked over from this mountain, and Liu Meiniang probably thought about how to plant these two mountains in the next year.

The newly bought mountain has been almost reclaimed by Gao Yong and others, although it is cold in Qingshi County in winter, the ground will not freeze, and Liu Meiniang is not very worried that the land will not be easy to dig after the spring of the next year.

"Is this mountain going to plant the same thing as the mountain just now?" In view of the fact that there was too much silence between the two, Zhang Jilin coughed twice and began to find a topic.

"No, I'm going to plant more fruit trees on this hill, and then plant some greens and other things." Speaking of her own plans, Liu Meiniang had something to say and began to introduce her plans to Zhang Jirin.

When she said these words, Liu Meiniang's eyes were shining, and she looked very good-looking, Zhang Jirin didn't interject, and watched Liu Meiniang talk from the side.

By the time the two of them descended the mountain, it was already a little dark.

Suddenly, Zhang Jilin heard a strange sound, and subconsciously grabbed Liu Meiniang's arm.

"How ......" Liu Meiniang just wanted to ask something, but she also heard the voice.

It was the sound of a man panting, just in front of the two of them to the right.

"Ah~ hard!"

A petite. The panting female voice came, Liu Meiniang's face turned red in an instant, she is not Xiaobai who doesn't know anything, haven't you eaten pork and never seen a pig run?

Zhang Jirin is a big man, of course he knows what is going on.

"Ah~" Jiao. The gasp followed, and the two stood awkwardly in place, neither walking, nor not leaving.

"Gui Fen, be my daughter-in-law." A boy came.

"Guifen? Zhao Guifen? Liu Meiniang's eyes widened, doesn't Zhao Guifen have a husband?

"What nonsense, phew, my man wants to know, he can't spare me." Zhao Guifen took a sip and said.

"Isn't your man absent for the past two days? What, I'm still scared. The man said with a lewd smile.

The two of them did not notice that someone was standing not far away.

Liu Meiniang's face was already flushed at the moment, and Zhang Jirin was also very unnatural.

The hand was still holding Liu Meiniang's arm.

Zhang Jirin made a gesture and motioned for Liu Meiniang to return the same way, and the two went back the way they came.

Liu Meiniang nodded, and left lightly with Zhang Jirin.

It wasn't until she walked far away that Liu Meiniang breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Jilin turned his head to look at Liu Meiniang, the red cloud on Liu Meiniang's face had not disappeared, and she looked very cute.

"Zhao Guifen......" Liu Meiniang originally wanted to say that this was too exciting, but remembering that the person next to her was Zhang Jirin, she swallowed her words stiffly.

Zhang Jilin didn't answer, but he didn't have much impression of this Zhao Guifen, he only remembered that when he was still at home, Zhao Guifen often came to block him.

However, Zhang Jilin didn't have any feelings about Zhao Guifen, first of all, Zhao Guifen was already married at that time, and secondly, Zhao Guifen was really not the type he liked.

Glancing at Liu Meiniang beside him again, Zhang Jilin still felt that a girl like Liu Meiniang was the type he liked.

"You ......" Liu Meiniang realized that her arm was still grabbed by Zhang Jilin.

Liu Meiniang struggled.

"I'll pull you, it's dark, and the road on the mountain is not easy to walk." Zhang Jirin didn't let go, and said lightly.

Liu Meiniang was embarrassed to say anything more, and nodded invisibly.

Zhang Jilin turned his hand and directly held Liu Meiniang's hand.

Liu Meiniang was startled, looked up at Zhang Jilin, but she didn't expect Zhang Jilin's face to be as usual, Liu Meiniang's hand struggled for a while, and saw that Zhang Jilin had no intention of letting go, so she had to give up.

Zhang Jirin's big hand held Liu Meiniang's small hand, and the soft and boneless hand was held by him, Zhang Jirin's heart seemed to be gently brushed by a feather, itchy and numb.

"Do you know who that man is?"

Walking on the road, Liu Meiniang suddenly asked.

"It should be, Zhang Haozi at the head of the village is a scoundrel." Zhang Jirin recalled that he basically knew that the people in the village knew that although he hadn't come back for a while, he still remembered it in general.

"Why do you ask this?" Zhang Jilin asked rhetorically.

"Zhao Guifen pit me before." Liu Meiniang told Zhang Jilin about the contradiction between her and Zhao Guifen before.

There is a little bit of a child complaining to an adult.

"It's not because of you." Liu Meiniang remembered that the reason why Zhao Guifen troubled her everywhere and gossiped about her seemed to be because Zhao Guifen liked Zhang Jilin.

"Ahem." Zhang Jirin coughed twice in embarrassment, but there was a smile in the corner of his eyes.

After coming down from the mountain, Liu Meiniang broke free from Zhang Jilin's hand. A sense of loss rose in Zhang Jirin's heart.

The two walked home side by side.

"Big brother, sister-in-law, you're back." Zhang Jihan didn't know where to go, and happened to meet two people at the door.

"Well, where have you been?" Zhang Jilin asked.

"I went to Aunt Li's house to deliver something, I just came back, you two just came down from the mountain." Zhang Jihan glanced at the two of them, but the faces of the two were as usual, and Zhang Jihan couldn't tell the two, four, five, or six.

The three of them went into the courtyard together.

"Sister-in-law, it's time to tell us a story tonight."

When Zhang Dandan saw Liu Meiniang coming back, he ran over.

"Yes, sister-in-law, you haven't told us a story for a long time." Zhang Jihan also agreed.

"Storytelling?" Zhang Jilin didn't know why.

"Big brother, sister-in-law will tell a lot of stories." Zhang Dandan blinked his eyes and said proudly.

"Then I'll tell you about it." Liu Meiniang was also interested, hooked her lips and smiled, and several people returned to the hall lively.

Zhang Li hadn't rested yet, listening to the story, and went to the kitchen to bring out some melons and fruit snacks.

"Where was it last time?" Liu Meiniang sat on a chair and asked.

"The Dragon Boat Festival is here, Xu Xian bought realgar wine and went back." Zhang Tongtong said with a smile.

"It is said that this Xu Xian bought realgar wine by mistake and went back, but everyone knows that realgar wine repels insects and snakes, and the snake demon will be beaten back to its original form if it drinks realgar wine." Liu Meiniang shook her head and said in a deep voice.

"Ah, that Bai Suzhen is a thousand-year-old snake demon, if she becomes a snake, how old will she be." Zhang Dandan asked in surprise.

In order not to arouse Xu Xian's suspicion, Bai Suzhen drank realgar wine, and after drinking, he said that he was comfortable and wanted to go back to the room to rest. Xu Xian is not at ease, let's go back and see, guess what? Liu Meiniang asked everyone with a smile.

"What's wrong?"

"Xu Xian saw the snake?"

"Xu Xian returned to the room and saw a big snake on the bed, Xu Xian was directly scared to death!" Liu Meiniang raised her voice, and several people were also interested in Liu Meiniang.

"Scared to death? Xu Xian was scared to death? ”

In this way, Liu Meiniang said, everyone raised a little question from time to time.

Zhang Jilin looked at Liu Meiniang who was smiling and smiling on the side, and the corners of her mouth also rose.

"Okay, it's too late, let's go back and rest, and we'll talk about the rest another day." Liu Meiniang clapped her hands, and Zhang Dandan and the others were still unsatisfied.

"Go to bed early, children will not get enough sleep." Liu Meiniang touched Zhang Dandan's head.

"Mother, you should rest early."

Zhang Li nodded, and everyone walked out of the hall together.
