Chapter 9: The overflowing joy of the fullness
Qin Lang saw the woman running towards him with a bright smile on her face, she was stunned for a moment, nodded "um", and was a little puzzled where did her overflowing joy come from?
Didn't he just cut a stake and came back? Why did she show the joy and smile of a general returning triumphantly from a hundred battles?
Su Jin took a reassuring pill, and his heart that was floating in the air fell to the ground all of a sudden, and said with a smile: "We will eat yam and lily porridge tonight, and I have also washed the wolfberry vegetables, and I can eat them by adding two handfuls of them later!" ”
Qin Lang looked at her, "Okay!" ”
The two of them quickly finished dinner, and the hot yam and lily porridge with the original fragrance of the food went down, and the body suddenly warmed up, as if the fatigue of the day had been relieved.
Not long after dinner, Qin Lang rushed Su Jin into the house to sleep.
The night is cold, the wind is whining, and even if the fire is lit, it will still feel cold in this unsheltered yard.
Su Jin also understands that her current physical condition cannot tolerate recklessness, and besides, she is really tired after walking a long way and working hard all day today. All the joints of the body were filled with unspeakable soreness, and the calves and stomachs were even more painful, so he obediently went into the house and lay down.
Lying on the bed, I still feel cold, but I am mentally prepared, and I can barely withstand it.
She curled up in a ball, silently thinking about tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and beyond.
Somehow, I suddenly thought of the fact that I unconsciously leaned on the people around me last night, my face was hot, and I felt a little embarrassed, and I couldn't help but ask myself secretly: ...... tonight What to do?
To rely on it or not to rely on it?
After thinking about it, let's go with the flow......
So, when Qin Lang fell asleep, after a while, the nameless daughter-in-law automatically and naturally pasted over again, hugging him, the originally tightly knit brows were obviously relaxed, and it looked a little quiet and serene.
Qin Lang simply lost his temper, sighed secretly, moved his body, and still didn't drive her away.
The next day, when there was just a glimmer of light, Qin Lang got up.
As soon as he got up, Su Jin opened his eyes lightly and breathed a long sigh of relief.
In fact, she also woke up, but when she realized that she was holding Qin Lang, she was embarrassed to move, so she only pretended to be asleep.
This is also a tacit matter between the two of them.
Su Jin also got up later, their time was limited, but they had a lot of work to do, and she had to help with it.
"Why do you wake up so early?" Qin Lang had just lit a fire, and when he saw her, he said.
Su Jin smiled: "I can't throw all the work to you alone!" ”
At this time, the eastern sky was covered with fish belly white, and the morning star with a strong sense of presence hung brightly in front of it, and the cold fog was thick in the cold winter morning, and it invaded the body for a while.
Su Jin shuddered, sighed, and roasted the fire in front of the stove, so that his body warmed up, and then neatly filled the clay pot with water and put it on the stove to burn.
"What are we going to do in the morning?" Su Jin asked with a smile.
Forgive her for not knowing much about rural life, and she can't give any constructive advice.
Qin Lang glanced at her and said, "Let's fence the yard first, drive piles and fence a fence first, and when I come back this afternoon, I will go to Lizheng's bamboo forest to get some bamboo branches and tie them up." ”
"Okay, listen to you," Su Jin nodded, and couldn't help but say: "We are always in trouble with the Li Zheng family, will their family have any opinions." ”
The county magistrate is not as good as the current management, if he really provokes the Li Zheng family to have opinions, there will be some trouble in the future.
In particular, you can't let Lizheng's daughter-in-law have an opinion, in case the woman's family is provoked......
Qin Lang didn't expect her to think so thoroughly, so he said: "Don't worry, I told Uncle Li and Uncle Niang that I would help their family work during spring ploughing, and I don't have to worry about the food." ”
Qin Lang is a real person, he said that spring ploughing to help people work must be real work, and he will never cheat and cheat, and he really did not take advantage of his own family, on the contrary, it was the Li Zheng family who took advantage.
"Oh!" Su Jin was relieved and said, "I will also go with you to help when the time comes." ”
Qin Lang glanced at her: "Let's talk about it again!" ”
With her small size, does it make any difference whether she goes to help or not? Qin Langxin said.
The two were then busy driving piles around the yard.
There was no hammer, only with the help of stones.
Su Jin held on to the stake, Qin Lang lifted the stone and smashed it down, driving the stake firmly into the ground.
The area they want to fence off is not very wide, and besides, there is no need to make it too good if they don't live here next year.
After the twenty or so wooden stakes were driven down, the sky gradually began to lighten.
The horizontal strips are firmly tied to the wooden stakes with mountain vines horizontally, and a simple fence is made, and when the time comes, the bamboo branches that have been stacked on top of each other are inserted and tied to create a fence courtyard wall.
Seeing that every household in the village was getting up one after another, Qin Lang asked Su Jin to rest for a while, he went to fetch water for Lizheng's house, and by the way, he borrowed a bucket and picked it up for his own use.
When Su Jin was cooking, Qin Lang said that he was going to take a trip to Lizheng's field to bring some straw back, spread it on the ground and expose it to the sun, and at night he could put a thick layer on the bed to separate the cold.
Su Jin's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but be happy when he patted his head: "Yes, yes, yes, straw can keep out the cold, or Xianggong is smart, hehe!" ”
The corners of Qin Lang's lips curled, and he listened to her call a few times, and he was used to it, and it seemed that he ...... Not annoying.
Breakfast was corn lily porridge, with a large handful of washed goji berries sprouts added as usual.
After the two of them had breakfast, they spread out the straw in the yard, Su Jin put the herbs he picked aside, and used rattan to wrap the door of the thatched hut left and right several times into a dead knot, and then he was relieved to leave with Qin Lang.
Today is different from yesterday, there are yams and lilies in the house.
The mountain vine is thick and very tough, and it is wrapped in layers and tied with dead knots, and it cannot be opened at all unless it is cut with a knife, which is also equivalent to a strong lock.
It took more than two quarters of an hour to reach the destination today, and the soreness in his body, especially in his legs, made Su Jin so tired that he could barely lift his feet after walking for long.
She understood that this was caused by overwork yesterday, and her body suddenly increased the amount of labor, and there must be a natural run-in process, as long as she persisted for two or three days.
Today, Qin Lang took Su Jin straight to the wild chestnut, and Su Jin was full of interest.
This piece of wild chestnut looks like three or four acres.
The chestnut tree grows tall, and there are not many big trees in three or four acres.
The so-called wild nature cannot be as neat as the planted chestnut forest, which is mixed with a lot of messy miscellaneous trees, vines, etc., and you have to be careful when walking in it.
Wild chestnuts are good for steaming, stewing, and boiling porridge, and even if they are buried in the ashes on the stove, they are delicious.
Su Jin seemed to have smelled the fragrance of fried chestnuts with sugar, and said with a smile: "Let's go in!" ”
