Chapter 25: The Courtyard is Full of Flowers
"Isn't it natural for a man to take care of a woman?" Yang Liulang smiled at her, he hadn't had time to comb his hair, his hair was still a little messy, but it wasn't ugly, but there was a hint of rare cuteness.
It's like...... It's like a lion who has just woken up from sleep and has shaggy hair.
He Mai thought it was funny and couldn't help but smile.
Her smile was tinged with the casual charm of getting up in the morning, and her smile was very cute.
Yang Liulang was stunned, and swallowed his saliva uncontrollably.
He Mai didn't notice Yang Liulang's abnormality, but looked out the door: "I'll go cook breakfast." ”
"Breakfast has been steamed, and it is leftovers that haven't been touched yesterday." Yang Liulang whispered, don't look over, don't want to be discovered by He Mai His slightly hot face.
He Mai answered softly, washed with the hot water brought in by Yang Liulang, and then walked out of the door.
She had visited the courtyard of Yang Liulang's house once late at night, nothing special, and the courtyard of ordinary people, it was not ready to accept surprises when He Mai went out.
Pushing open the door, there is a pungent fragrance, aroma, sweetness, honey, faint, shallow, like a wave that envelops and sweeps the wheat.
And what catches your eye is not an ordinary courtyard, but a colorful flower.
The wind is a little strong today, and the breeze blowing from the west side of the courtyard carries the light pink petals of the peach tree to the other corner of the courtyard, and the light yellow flowers of the pear tree are mixed together, and the color is warm and beautiful.
Just looking at the dense trees that bloom at the corners of the courtyard is enough to make people feel happy all day.
What's more, the blooming in the courtyard are the peach blossoms and pear blossoms that Hemai loves.
Xiaoqing Village is located in a remote and poor area, surrounded by the majestic and lofty Xiaoqing Mountain, as well as the various tributaries of the Changqing River, because this area is full of weeds, and the trees are mostly willows.
If it is just for beautiful viewing, I am afraid that no one will bother to plant some peach trees and pear trees that only have the meaning of viewing.
But where did the beautiful peach and pear trees in the courtyard come from?
He Mai walked into the courtyard, and looked at the flowers blooming in the courtyard with surprise and greed, and then wondered the origin of these trees.
It's only been more than half a month since the last time he was here, where did Yang Liulang get so many beautiful trees?
Yang Liulang stepped out of the courtyard from Hemai, his eyes followed her closely, and when he saw her surprised and happy appearance, he couldn't help but feel comfortable.
The last time he heard her say that she liked the peach and pear trees, he silently remembered it in his heart, and he really ran around for her preferences.
In fact, it was just a casual call from the girl's family, and he really wrote it down. If Hemai said at that time that he liked the moon and stars in the sky, could it be that he really wanted to go up to the sky to pick them?
Thinking about it, he just put a little effort into it, hoping to make He Mai live in Yang's house happier.
"Did you plant these trees on purpose?" He Mai looked at Yang Liulang with emotion, full of joy and happiness, there was also an indescribable feeling lingering in his heart.
"Well," Yang Liulang bowed slightly, "If you like it, you will plant it." ”
He Mai remembered the scene of the last conversation between the two, she did say such things, but at that time, she never had the luxury of expecting Yang Liulang to really bother about it!
"But where did you get the tree in such a short period of time?" He Mai asked softly, "It must have taken a lot of work, right?" ”
"It's okay, nothing." Yang Liulang said with a smile.
These trees were bought from the forest farm, and since it was the flowering season, it took a lot of effort to plant them alive and make them bloom as scheduled, and only the remaining four of the seven or eight peach and pear trees that were brought in survived.
"These flowers have a short flowering period, so I planted a locust tree in the corner of the yard, but it is still a small tree. This time next year, when these flowers have fallen, the locust trees will bloom. Yang Liulang walked to a corner of the courtyard and pointed to two small trees.
He Mai was very moved in his heart, and he didn't know how to thank him, so he said: "If you do this, I ...... I don't know how to repay you......"
"What kind of repayment," Yang Liulang smiled, "I just want you to live more comfortably, if you are so anxious and always want to reciprocate, it will make me lose the original intention of doing these things." ”
His warm eyes fell on Hemai's flushed face, "As long as you are happy, my purpose in doing these things will be achieved." Let's go, let's have breakfast. ”
There are leftovers and cakes that have not been touched yesterday, and they taste better when they are heated in the pot, and the meat is more and more soft and tender, almost melting in the mouth.
He Mai hadn't eaten any meat for a few days, and he was hungry and gobbled up when he ate last night, and he didn't have time to taste the aroma of these meals.
"Who makes these meals? It looks ordinary, but it tastes really good. He Mai tasted it carefully and said, "I can't imagine that there are still people in our village who can make such good tea and rice?" ”
"It's not from our village," Yang Liulang saw that He Mai liked the white meat, and put two chopsticks of white meat into her bowl one after another, "When I went to repair the roof last time, there was a man named Tian Dacheng, do you remember?" He knew some cooks in restaurants, and he asked someone from his daughter-in-law's family to help, and he was only busy yesterday. ”
He Mai really had some impression of the young man named Tian Dacheng, who had dinner together that day, Tian Dacheng ate five bowls of sweet potato rice alone, and He Mai was worried that he would break his belly!
"It seems that the cook's craftsmanship is really better than the craftsmanship of our peasant family, and the one who specializes in this is different!" He Mai said with a smile.
Yang Liulang said: "I think your craftsmanship is no worse than theirs." If you like it, I'll take you to his friend's restaurant when you want to eat it, and let's order some dishes and open meat! ”
"Lots of money, right? Still don't. He Mai hurriedly shook his head and said, "In the future, I will cook vegetables and rice, you don't have to do it." ”
She talked to Yang Liulang last night, and she already felt very sorry for Yang Liulang. And today, seeing that he has done so much for himself, he is even more uneasy, and he only secretly wants to make more good dishes and rice to reward him. I thought that on the day I returned to the door, I would learn more from the Qin family to learn the craft of sewing, and I couldn't let my clothes be torn and asked Yang Liulang to help her mend them.
After the two finished eating, Hemai said this time that he didn't ask Yang Liulang to touch his hands, hurriedly cleaned up to the well, and cleaned up himself.
Yang Liulang took the hoe and walked out of the courtyard, and he didn't tell He Mai what to do.
While washing the dishes, He Mai looked at Yang Liulang, and saw him on the ground opposite the door of his house, turning up the ground with a hoe.
She didn't figure out what Yang Liulang was doing at first, until Yang Liulang turned the ground over for an hour, and then she realized that he was backing the ground! This is opening a vegetable garden for her!
