Chapter Seventy-Two: The Flower Protector
Cai Qifu and his wife spoke hotly, and they didn't think about what Cai Zijun meant by herself.
Early the next morning, Cai Zijun went up the mountain with a bamboo basket on her back, and the bamboo basket contained the lunch prepared for her by the Li family, ten meat buns, a large bamboo tube of hot water, six boiled salted duck eggs, and ten hand-kneaded white rice balls the size of a little doll's fist.
Of course, so much weight is not Cai Zijun's alone, taking into account Cai Langzhong and Tang Jue.
"Hua'er, after going up the mountain, follow Tang Jue and your Uncle Cai, don't run far." Li Shan told her while putting the food and drink into the bamboo basket.
"Well, I know, I won't run far." Cai Zijun responded, picked up the bamboo basket and went out of the house, and walked to the foot of the mountain.
What Cai Zijun didn't expect was that she had only walked a hundred steps away when she met someone.
Cai Zijun looked at him with a surprised expression, "Didn't you say that you and Uncle Cai would wait for me at the foot of the mountain?" ”
Tang Jue smiled ruffianly and looked at her, "It's the same wherever you wait, besides, the weather is too early, I don't worry about you being a girl rushing to the foot of the mountain alone." ”
"In the village, not outside, what's not to worry about!" Cai Zijun also smiled, "Since you're here, let's go together." ”
The two walked side by side and walked to the foot of the mountain, Cai Qigui, who was worried that her sister was going to send her off for a while, stopped catching up, stood there and watched the two leave, thoughtfully, could it be that the third sister-in-law's guess yesterday was correct?
Tang Jue fell in love with his younger sister because of his life-saving grace, but looking at the two people in front of him, one was as fat as a ball and the other was as majestic as an aspen, judging from the appearance, it didn't seem to be worthy.
However, this thought flashed in Cai Qigui's mind, because Cai Hua, the younger sister, is now a big change in his heart, she can see a doctor, she can cook, she can make money, and she can also pay attention to and draw bamboo furniture patterns for the third brother......
Such a sister is not the same sister as before, and it is not something that anyone can marry if they want to.
"Have you had breakfast?" Cai Zijun asked Tang Jue.
Tang Jue's eyes flashed, she was caring about herself, right?
"Nope." Tang Jue shook his head, "I'm going to go up the mountain to hunt wild things and roast them to fill my stomach." ”
A person just can't take care of himself!
Cai Zijun put down the basket on his back, took two meat buns from it, and two large rice balls came out and stuffed them into Tang Jue's hands, "Eat, the lunch that my mother prepared for us early is still hot." ”
"Okay." Tang Jue is not polite, if you don't have enough to eat for lunch, roast some wild things and eat them together, "Hmm...... It smells so good! ”
"Incense, huh? My mother was worried that we wouldn't have enough to eat, but we had enough minced meat! ”
When Tang Jue finished eating the two meat buns and two rice balls in his hand, the two also arrived at the foot of the mountain, at the foot of the mountain, Cai Langzhong also arrived early, Cai Zijun asked him if he had breakfast, but Cai Langzhong didn't eat either, Cai Zijun took out two meat buns and a big rice ball for Cai Langzhong, fortunately, the Li family prepared more, otherwise, the prepared lunch would be eaten in the morning.
The three of them went up the mountain, Cai Zijun followed Cai Langzhong to pick herbs, and Tang Jue walked farther to hunt prey.
In fact, his purpose today was not to hunt prey, but to accompany Cai Zijun, and by the way to protect her safety, so he didn't go very far, and the farthest distance was also within Cai Zijun's line of sight.
As soon as he looked up, he would see her, and his heart would be reassured.
In the morning, Cai Langzhong and Cai Zijun picked a lot of herbs, Tang Jue also had a great harvest, hit three hares, two pheasants, and hunted a big roe deer, Tang Jue's original intention was to protect Cai Zijun first, and hunting wild animals second, but he didn't expect that when he came to hunt for prey in the past, he didn't hunt as much as this morning.
Sure enough, where she is, she will increase her luck.
It was almost noon, Cai Lang and Cai Zijun sat on the boulder to rest, Tang Jue skillfully found the stream, killed a rabbit and washed it, and then lit a fire and roasted it on a stick.
Cai Zijun saw that Tang Jue was skilled in doing these things, and she was a little tired after running all morning, and she didn't want to move when she sat on the boulder, so she didn't want to be polite to him, and asked Tang Jue to take out the food in her basket and put it next to the fire to roast and eat it together.
Cai Langzhong happily watched Tang Jue busy before and after, his eyes looked at Cai Zijun, and then at Tang Jue, only pursed his lips and smiled.
Tang Jue, who was busy before and after, felt that he was close to her like this, baked something for her to eat, and even could watch her happily taste it in small bites, it was his dream in his previous life, and he had not fulfilled his wish in his previous life until he died, in this life, he finally did it.
Tang Jue reached out and pulled a big rabbit leg to Cai Zijun, and pulled another one to Cai Langzhong.
Tang Jue's skills in roasting wild things are good, the rabbit legs were roasted by him until they were browned on both sides, and they exuded the aroma of meat, Cai Zijun swallowed his saliva and unceremoniously took the rabbit legs and gnawed them.
Cai Langzhong also took the rabbit leg with his hand and gnawed silently, he can now understand that he can eat Tang Jue's roasted rabbit leg, which is definitely tearing the corner of his own half of the apprentice's clothes and staining her light.
"Is it delicious?" Tang Jue asked Cai Zijun.
"Well, fragrant, delicious!" Cai Zijun nodded, "You eat too, don't watch us eat." ”
"Okay." Tang Jue also tore a piece of rabbit meat and gnawed on it, and from time to time, he paid attention to Cai Zijun with his eyes, and handed her a rice ball, a piece of water or something.
Everyone had a good meal, and the three of them ate the food that Cai Zijun brought up the mountain, and a roast rabbit and a roast pheasant.
"Are you full?" Tang Jue asked Cai Zijun.
"Full, full, I've eaten it all!" Cai Zijun lasted until he almost touched his belly without an image, how could he not be full.
"Uncle Cai, are you full?" Tang Jue asked Cai Langzhong again by the way.
"Full, full, too full!" Cai Langzhong patted his big belly.
After the three of them had finished their lunch, they decided to stay on the mountain for another hour before going down.
Tang Jue caught a lot of things in the morning, and in the afternoon he decided not to hunt, but to help Cai Zijun collect medicine together, and he went to dangerous places, not letting Cai Zijun go, such as the edge of the cliff and the edge of the deep ditch.
"Wait, Cai Hua, let me come, let me come, there are many thorns in there, and it will stab you in a while."
When Tang Jue stopped himself again, even Cai Zijun felt it, feeling that he was protecting himself like protecting a fragile porcelain doll.
While a certain "flower messenger" was digging into the thorn pile to collect medicine for himself, Cai Zijun stood boredly looking at the cliff above his head.
Suddenly, a plant in the middle of the cliff caught her eye, Cai Zijun was excited, her luck would not be so good!
Cai Zijun didn't care about Tang Jue, who was still in the thorn bushes, found a flat place, put down the bamboo basket, took out a rope from the bamboo basket, put it on his waist, and was about to climb the cliff.
Cai Langzhong, who was looking for medicinal herbs not far away, inadvertently looked back and found that Cai Zijun had climbed to a small tree at the bottom of the cliff that was four meters away from the ground. It's not about keeping you from going to dangerous places. ”
"Uncle Cai, ginseng, ginseng...... I'll be able to climb a little more! Cai Zijun waved his arm at Cai Langzhong and shouted excitedly.
Tang Jue, who was working hard in the thorns, heard the conversation between the two, and suddenly raised his head, so frightened that his soul flew out of the sky, only to see Cai Zijun lying on the trunk of the tree, like a clumsy koala, with a mission to climb to the middle of the cliff, reaching for the herbs above his hand.
Tang Jue's eyes were sharp, he had already seen that the tree under her was already cracked, and it would break in a while.
Tang Jue couldn't care much more, his figure flashed, he rose from the ground, and quickly flew towards Cai Zijun, then stretched out his hand, grabbed her body, hugged her into his arms, and hugged away the small tree that was crushed by her.
Cai Zijun only felt the sound of the wind in her ears, and when she came back to her senses, she found that she was not lying on a tree, but fell into a person's arms.
He smelled of mint on his body, which was very good, and as a doctor, he was a little clean, but she didn't hate the smell at all.
Cai Langzhong, who was worried in the distance, was stunned when Tang Jue flew up, he knew how to do internal skills and light skills, and he could pick up people with his bare hands, he was definitely a master!
He suddenly found that the two people closest to him didn't seem to be simple, Cai Hua was a master of medical skills, he thought Tang Jue was a poor young man, but he didn't want to, but he had high martial arts that everyone didn't know.
Seeing that the two had fallen safely to the ground, Cai Langzhong covered his ears and stole the bell, turned around silently, and couldn't go far away from the two, and then pointed at the two with the back of his head, indicating that he didn't see the scene just now.
"Cai Hua, what's the matter with you? Didn't I tell you that the dangerous place let me go? Tang Jue asked with some annoyance.
Cai Zijun was a little weak for no reason, and shrunk his neck, "I'...... I just got excited when I saw ginseng, and I was excited, so ...... Forgot about you! ”
Tang Jue: "......"
Saw ginseng and forgot about him? This is more than seeing yourself when you see a ginseng!
"It's just a ginseng, and you don't want a little life!" Tang Jue continued to look bad.
"That's worth a lot of silver!" Cai Zijun stiffened his neck and shouted.
"Are you short of silver? Yes? ”
"This ......" not to mention the treasures in her space, only the 1,000 taels of silver that Tang Jue gave her have not been moved, and there is really no shortage of silver flowers, "No...... There is no shortage! ”
"Hmph......" Tang Jue snorted angrily when she saw that she knew she was wrong, "Stand here, don't move, I'll pick it for you!" ”
"Oh." Cai Zijun also saw the crack on the small tree at this time, and knew why Tang Jue was so angry that he was worried, so he obediently answered him.
Tang Jue will work lightly, Cai Zijun is not worried that he will fall, standing there, holding his head high, leisurely watching him pick ginseng, and a little funny glanced at Cai Langzhong, who was facing away from them, anyway, now it is his own secret and Tang Jue's secret, he knows it, what kind of ostrich to pretend!
