When the two returned to the mountain, it was already early, and Su Xiaoman was cleaning up the scraps left over from the bedside to make clothes, and suddenly reacted in hindsight, three days had passed.

Su Xiaoman was in a trance, and when he didn't pay attention to his hand, he was pricked by the needle in the thread bag, and put his fingers into his mouth and sucked with some chagrin, both worried and looking forward to tonight.

Tonight, will Lu Li go back to the back room to sleep?

Lu Li was cleaning up a wild roe deer in the yard, his movements were very neat and fast, a knife seemed to grow in his hand, and he peeled off a complete roe deer skin in three strokes and two clicks, which made Su Xiaoman marvel.

"The roe deer skin is strong and cold-resistant, and you can use it to make a few pairs of insoles when it dries, and when winter comes, it will be better." Lu Li washed the roe deer skin and hung it on a branch next to him to dry.

Su Xiaoman measured it twice with his hand, and said: "This skin is really completely peeled, why don't you keep it for money, I'm quite frost-resistant, and I don't need to ......."

Lu Li looked at Su Xiaoman with a smile and didn't speak, but let Su Xiaoman know that this matter was not negotiable.

Su Xiaoman really felt that it was a waste to make insoles, such a large piece of skin, if it was brought to the town, it would definitely be very sought-after, how could it be bought for consistent money, but Lu Li disagreed, so Su Xiaoman could only start from other directions, and decided to make a few more pairs for Lu Li when the insoles were accepted.

It was finally dark, and there was silence in the mountains and forests, and occasionally you could hear the roars of a few wild beasts, which made people feel terrified to hear them.

Su Xiaoman sorted out the bed, took noodles and some paste to paste the leaky window paper, and when he found that there was nothing to do, he sat on the edge of the bed anxiously.

As soon as Lu Li entered the house, Su Xiaoman stood up suddenly.

Su Xiaoman realized the abruptness of his movements, two scarlets flew on his cheeks, and he didn't know what to do.

Looking at Su Xiaoman, who was no different from the frightened rabbit, Lu Li couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Am I that terrible?"

"No, it's not ......" Su Xiaoman's voice was almost inaudible.

"Okay," Lu Li saw that she was eager to find a hole to get into, so he didn't ask, and took out a set of futons from the wooden box at the end of the kang and put it on the bed, "It's not early, hurry up and rest, can you sleep in it?" ”

Su Xiaoman nodded in a panic, took off his shoes and climbed to the innermost part of the kang with his hands and feet, pulled the quilt over his head, and stopped squeaking.

Lu Li looked at the small lump in the quilt and laughed.

She's still a little girl......

The next day, Su Xiaoman was woken up by a few sharp birdsong, the sky was already bright, she hurriedly got up from the bed, and found that there was no shadow of Lu Li beside her.

How could she sleep for so long? It's almost time!

Su Xiaoman grabbed his hair, quickly put on his clothes, and walked into the courtyard in three steps and two steps.

There was not only one person in the courtyard, but also a grandmother who looked to be in her fifties, the two were talking something in the yard, and when they saw Su Xiaoman coming out of the house, the grandmother showed a mocking look.

"Oh, it's good to have a daughter-in-law, and you kid also knows that you feel distressed......"

Su Xiaoman was confused, and Lu Li beckoned her to come over.

"Xiaoman, this is Granny Ma."

Su Xiaoman obediently called "Granny Ma", and successfully made Granny Ma smile so much that she couldn't see her teeth.

"Look at this girl, she looks so handsome, she is really blessed to be a boy......" Granny Ma looked at this Su Xiaoman, and patted Lu Li's shoulder, "What a match!" ”。

Su Xiaoman saw that Lu Li had a good relationship with this Granny Ma, although he was a little shy, he still took the initiative to talk to Granny Ma, which also made Granny Ma's perception of her more and more good, and she didn't let go of Su Xiaoman.

"Xiaoman, it's a good thing to leave the kid, you have to live a good life, it's not early today, I'll go back first, old woman, I'll send it to you when the things are bought!"

Su Xiaoman still wanted to leave people for a meal, but Granny Ma waved her hand, and after a while, she disappeared, not at all like an old man of this age.

Lu Li was cooking the pot, Su Xiaoman was on the side to give him a hand, thinking of what Granny Ma said when she left, he couldn't help asking, "What is Granny Ma saying to buy something?" Is there anything missing from the house? ”

"Well, my Granny Toma bought you something."

"Bought it for me? I don't need anything, huh? Su Xiaoman was a little surprised by this answer.

"Of course there is, you'll know when you get there." Lu Li's attitude of avoiding and not answering made Su Xiaoman even more curious, what did Lu Li let Granny Ma buy?

Things have proved that Su Xiaoman really needs something.

Granny Ma was very fast, and she sent things over that afternoon, Su Xiaoman opened the package, and saw the top moon cloth at a glance, in addition, there were some bits and pieces such as mirrors, soaphorns, etc.

Su Xiaoman secretly calculated the days and found that these things were really timely, if it wasn't for Lu Li thinking of this, it would be too late to prepare when her menstrual affairs came.

As soon as he stuffed the menstrual cloth into the box and put it away, Lu Li came in.

He took off his bow and arrows and quivers, which hung on the wall, and carried them on his back.

"Are you going hunting?" Su Xiaoman looked at his movements and asked.

"That's right," Lu Li nodded, "The weather is getting colder day by day, we have to hunt more prey and store more food before winter comes, otherwise it will be difficult to survive winter." ”

Su Xiao was full of ran.

They live in the mountains, and they generally find food from the mountains on weekdays, but when the weather is cold and the ground freezes for nine cold winters, they can hardly hunt anything, so the food for the winter can only be stored in advance.

Su Xiaoman looked at the back of Lu Li's departure, and felt that she couldn't rely on Lu Li alone to support her family, she also had hands and feet, and she couldn't do hunting, but it was still okay to pick up firewood for cooking.

After all, it can make Lu Li easier.

Su Xiaoman made up his mind, dragged out a large bamboo basket from the firewood room, carried it on his back, and locked the door.

The back mountain has always been a public area, and the villagers of Bishui Village will go up the mountain from time to time like Su Xiaoman to pick up some firewood and go home to burn, but they generally dare not go in the middle of the mountain. They don't have a good skill like Lu Li.

Su Xiaoman didn't have the courage to go up the mountain, but because her home was on the mountainside, she was always familiar with the surroundings, so she also picked up firewood in the surrounding area, and after a while, she picked up half a large basket.

Just when Su Xiaoman was thinking about whether to transport the firewood back first and then come back, or pick up more and then go back, two uninvited guests appeared in Su Xiaoman's field of vision.
