Chapter 144: Visiting Relatives
The cultivation has broken through, and the life is still the same, eating and sleeping.
After cleaning up last night's dishes and chopsticks, Lu Yu was going to make lunch again, and last night's body sucked back Lu Yu's broken soul into tens of thousands of pieces, and kneaded it into its original state, this process seemed to be very physically exhausting, making Lu Yu rarely feel hungry and unbearable.
Pickled meat radish strips, pickled meat Chinese cabbage, and a small bowl of crispy radish marinated in chili paste. The staple food at noon was not tortillas, and Lu Yu cooked a large pot of rice.
Although last night's experience was thrilling in the end, but thinking about it again, Lu Yu still had palpitations, so he didn't dare to drink at noon, for fear that he would not be able to return if his soul came out of his body again.
I ate with my head bored, the dishes on the table were all eaten, and all the rice in the pot was also wiped out.
After eating, Lu Yu had a satisfied burp, and then remembered that the sheep in the backyard hadn't eaten yet. So the dishes and chopsticks were not cleaned up, Lu Yu closed the door of the house, and passed directly into Anding Valley from the backyard, with seven sheep.
Sheep graze on the grass, and Lu Yu pulls weeds in the paddy field. The white clouds in the sky fluttered slowly, and when they passed over the valley, a faint shadow would fall.
It was busy until the afternoon, and the seven goats were already full of food and drink, and were lying quietly and leisurely on the grass. Lu Yu washed his hands and feet in the stream, gathered the seven sheep together, and teleported them back to the backyard of his home.
drove the sheep into the pen and picked some vegetables in the backyard, and Lu Yu went to the kitchen to cook again.
That's how a person lives, eating and working, working and eating, and there is no one to talk to.
After dinner, Lu Yu was thinking about which room he would sleep in tonight.
Before the Yan family came, Lu Yu had been sleeping in the bedroom to the west, which was the one where Mrs. Yan and Yan Xi'an had been living. Now that the Yan family has gone back, Lu Yu has built two more bamboo houses, and there are more rooms to choose from.
After struggling for a while, Lu Yu decided to sleep in the bamboo house tonight, and Yan Xi stayed in the one for a few nights. Lu Yu thought secretly: "Xi'an just left, and there must still be her breath in that room." ”
The covers in the bamboo house were rolled up, and the sheets were washed and dried and put away, so Lu Yu took off the sheets on his bed and put them on, and the quilt was gone.
In the bed room, there is indeed a unique fragrance of Yan Xi'an, but it is too clear and light, if there is nothing.
Lu Yu lay on the bed, pressed on the bed, and did not fall asleep until midnight.
When he got up in the morning, Lu Yu drove the goats to Anding Valley, and when they were full, they rushed back to the circle, Lu Yu went to the town again, and he wanted to take Lu Ming and them to live at home for a few days. How can it be said that Lu Ming also grew up in Yangshan Village, and if he came to live in the village, he could be regarded as returning to his parents' home.
There was nothing to take to the town at home, so Lu Yu went empty-handed.
Lu Yu told Lu Ming that the Yan family had left, saying that he wanted to take their family to live in Yangshan Village for a few days.
Lu Ming smiled and said, "When the people of the Yan family are gone, you remember that we are here, do you want us to be your companion?" ”
"Your daughter is almost three years old, she hasn't lived at home, and I want to take her to live at home for a few days."
Lu Ming said: "It's okay, anyway, there is a place where the family lives now, and we have nothing to do." He asked his father-in-law and mother-in-law, "Father, mother, shall we go to the village for a few days?" ”
Zhang Qiye said: "That, you Lu Ming and Ah Li take Jiayu with them, and the two of us won't go." ”
Mrs. Zhang also said: "Yes, you can go, you have to keep someone to watch at home." "The Zhang family still has food, and there are vegetables in the yard, and these two people are older, so they will be more careful.
Lu Yu said: "Don't worry at home, I asked that General Shan to help take care of the point, no one dares to come and sneak around." ”
"I'll do it." Lu Ming said: "Mom and Dad, you haven't been out for a long time, go to my brother's, just take a break." He turned his head again and asked his wife, "Ah Li, did you say that?" ”
Ah Li thought for a while, and then said, "Go, Lu Ming's village is quite fine, let's go and disturb the eldest brother for a few days." Jiayu is so big that she hasn't been out of our town much, so it's good to take her to the countryside to have fun. ”
The daughter, son-in-law and son-in-law and son-in-law's eldest brother all said so, but the old couple of the Zhang family didn't insist anymore, saying that they would pack up and prepare to go. Lu Yu took advantage of this time to go to the town guard yamen courtyard and asked Shan Tianfang to help take care of the Zhang family in the past few days.
Shan Tianfang naturally agreed.
Coming out of the town guard yamen courtyard, Lu Yu did not go to Zhang's house immediately, but took a trip to Jinhua City through the teleportation array, and he felt the need to tell Yan Xi'an that he would take his younger brother's family to live in his house for a few days. Of course, Yan Xi'an would not have any opinions, and he was even very happy, Lu Yu would deliberately come to ask what he meant.
After talking a lot to Yan Xi'an, Lu Yu reluctantly returned to Dunlin Town, and at this time, the salutes that the Zhang family was going to bring were all packed. Dunlin Town and Yangshan Village are only seven or eight miles, and it is impossible for Lu Ming and them to go back to live for a long time, but there are a lot of things to bring back. A few people's clothes, children's food, and a few pillows, Zhang Qiye said that the two of them are used to sleeping on their own customized pillows.
Going back with Lu Ming's family, Lu Yu couldn't use the teleportation array, and walked slowly, and when he arrived at Yangshan Village, it was almost noon.
The villagers who were basking in the sun at the entrance of the village came to greet Lu Ming's family when they saw Lu Ming's family coming to the village. The older ones said hello to Zhang Qiye and his wife. Before the disaster year, Zhang Qiye was a well-known rich man in Dunlin Town, and there were many people who knew him or wanted to know him.
Some people praised Lu Ming's daughter for being well-behaved and handsome, saying that this little girl looks like her father and mother, good-looking and fair-skinned.
Then someone asked Lu Yu: "Da Yu, your brother's children are several years old, when will you get married." ”
The villagers are not stupid, and even most of them have sharp eyes, and they have long seen the relationship between Lu Yu and the girl of the Yan family, and they don't know how to taboo, and there is nothing taboo about this, so someone said: "Da Yu, that girl from the Yan family, has it become with you?" It's time for this marriage. ”
Lu Ming has always lived in the town, and he has guessed the relationship between his brother and the girl of the Yan family, but he has not been convinced, and when he heard the people in the village say this, he suddenly realized: "Brother, you are amazing, it turns out that you still have this hand." ”
As if a small conspiracy had been discovered, Lu Yu was embarrassed, admitting that it was not, not admitting that it was not, so he had to smile and not speak.
The villagers showed great enthusiasm for the arrival of Lu Ming's family, and Zhang Qiye was still very useful.
After greeting for a while at the entrance of the village, he returned to Lu Yu's house, Lu Ming was cleaning up his residence, and Lu Yu went to the kitchen to cook.
Because there was no food at home, Lu Yu wanted to get some fish back, and thought that if he got fish, Lu Ming and they would definitely ask where the fish came from, which was not easy to explain. So at noon, there were only turnips, cabbage, meat and some pickles.
Lu Yu cooked a pot of rice and a bowl of corn paste, which was explained by Lu Ming, and his daughter loved to eat this.
There are not many dishes, but they are generous.
Zhang Qiye and his wife came to Lu Yu's house for dinner for the first time, and Lu Yu was prepared to be grand, but there were no good things at home, which made him feel a little sorry.
When the meal was served, several people were seated, Lu Yu poured wine for Zhang Qiye and Lu Ming, and poured a small half bowl for Ah Li.
Lu Yu didn't understand all the rules and politeness on the wine table, and he said to the Zhang family with apologies that he was not prepared well and how thin the food was, and asked them not to be surprised.
Of course, no one was surprised, Lu Ming also said, "Brother, what are you talking about?" If you're too polite, we're all upset. ”
"Blame me, blame me." Lu Yu said: "Then we are all full, and I will go get a few fish at night and come back." ”
"Where to get it? Is there a reservoir in the village? I'll go with you. ”
As soon as Lu Ming said this, Lu Yu remembered that there were indeed fish in the reservoir pond at the edge of the village, but it was not anyone's family, and few people usually went to fish in the water. Generally, at the end of the year, Fang Daping organizes people to cast nets to catch fish, and then according to the population, every household in the village can get some.
Lu Yu said: "There is a waterhole in the mountain, in a place that no one knows, there are fish there. He persuaded Zhang Qiye and Lu Ming to drink again, and asked them how the wine was.
Lu Ming said: "As long as you have wine these days, you can distinguish between good and bad." ”
"Is this wine home-made? It's really good. Zhang Qiye drank wine slowly and methodically, it seems that he understands wine. Lu Yu and Lu Ming can't, for them, almost all liquor is a taste.
Lu Yu said: "I brewed a lot a few days ago, and when you go home, I will send a few jars over." ”
Zhang Qiye groaned and did not refuse, and Lu Ming said: "That's okay, this year's New Year, it's good to entertain guests if you have wine." ”
Eating with Lu Ming's family, Lu Yu was slightly restrained, he remembered that when he ate with the Yan family, he would feel restrained at first, but now they are like a family, sitting at the same table, and there will be no restraint at all.
After lunch, Ah Li said that he was going to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, of course Lu Yu didn't let him, and asked Lu Ming to take the child to the village for a walk.
Lu Yu had just finished washing the dishes, and before Lu Ming went out, someone came to their house.
The first ones to come were Lu Mingli and Lu Mingde's daughter-in-law, second aunt and third aunt. These two people were very warm and polite today, each carrying a small cloth bag, and they didn't know what it contained. Before entering the door, the second aunt said with a smile: "Oh, Xiao Ming, you are back, I heard that your daughter also brought it, what about the girl?" Let Grandma see. "The laughter was hearty and enthusiastic. The third aunt also said similar words, expressing a warm welcome to Lu Ming's family and her heartfelt joy at seeing this distant niece and granddaughter for the first time.
Lu Ming took out Xiao Jiayu and asked her to shout "Second Grandma, Third Grandma", but the little girl seemed to be a little resistant to these two "enthusiastic" grandmothers, and shrank back slightly, not daring to speak.
"This girl is really handsome, just like when we Xiaoming was a child."
"Isn't it? The eyes are like Xiao Ming, this small mouth, small nose and small face are also like Xiao Ming's daughter-in-law. ”
The two of them shifted the topic to Ah Li again, one of them took Ah Li's hand, asked questions with "care and enthusiasm", and said how obedient Lu Ming was and how down-to-earth he was, as if they were more familiar with Lu Ming than Ah Li.
