As soon as the season is clear, the sun rises day by day, and the colors of the mountains and forests suddenly become brighter, and the green or yellow leaves are sharpened, and in only two or three days, the bright colors occupy the branches. One or two gusts www.biquge.info of warm wind swept over, the rabbit gang floated out the fragrance of a long absence, the swarms of bees buzzed, the stream in front of the courtyard also moved, the clear and bright stream floated poplars, catkins, and days, inadvertently, the locust flowers on the trees have bloomed for more than ten days.

In the month after the Qingming Festival, most of the weather is sunny and dry, although there are occasionally one or two light rains, but it cannot change the theme of this June. A small mountain rain has only passed a few days, and cracks have appeared in the small vegetable garden east of Rabbit Gang, and on several neat vegetable beds, the drought-tolerant melons, fruits and vegetable seedlings have lost their vitality under the wind and sun, as if they have been roasted by fire, and they are all hanging their heads and pulling their leaves.

Taking advantage of the fact that the stream in front of the courtyard did not bottom, after breakfast that day, Liu Zixuan dropped the dishes and chopsticks and picked up the bucket and went to the creek to carry water and water the vegetables.

A warm south-east wind blew, rustling a large patch of reeds on the south bank of the creek. The close-fitting clothes had already been soaked with sweat, Liu Zixuan felt a burst of comfort in his work, standing by the water against the wind, looking at the swaying reeds reflected in the stream, and his heart was a little refreshed.

After working back and forth between the vegetable garden and the creek for a long time, Gu Nanyan, who was washing by the well, saw that Liu Zixuan was sweating, so he called him over to rest.

Liu Zixuan sat by the well, Gu Nanyan wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and complained: "It's only June, it's so hot, next time you go to the town, don't forget to buy a bathtub and come back, since you live in this post, more than a year, I haven't been able to take a bath happily, seeing that the weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day, you usually only care about your own business, where do you know the trouble of a woman's family?" Look at the sweat on my body, I want to jump into the water for a while. ”

After listening to Gu Nanyan's words, Liu Zixuan slapped his head in shame and said, "Blame me for being careless and forgetting about this, you should have told me earlier." Then he raised his head and looked at the sun in the sky, and then turned his head to look at the reeds on the other side of the stream, and then he rolled his eyes, and said, "Wait, let you take a good bath today." ”

I didn't know what Liu Zixuan was going to do, so Gu Nanyan was about to ask, but saw that he had already gotten up and entered the courtyard gate.

After a while, Liu Zixuan walked out of the courtyard with a shovel and a firewood knife, and Gu Nanyan hurriedly asked, "What are you going to do here?" ”

"Just wait." After Liu Zixuan finished speaking, he crossed the creek and got into the reeds.

At present, on the south bank of the creek, the tall reed grass grows thickly, and most of them have pulled out white hairy ears, standing on the rabbit hill and looking over, it seems that a purple snow has just fallen in this small area.

After cutting down a large patch of grass on the south bank near the stream, he dug a hole in the exposed ground, and with little effort, a deep pit the size of a bathtub was dug. Then, they spread the freshly cut reeds on the bottom of the pit, and then collected smooth stones from the creek and stacked them on the reeds...... Liu Zixuan is in the prime of life, and he is naturally quick and powerful to work, and after more than half an hour, a bathtub of the right size is finished.

At this time, the straight reed grass on all sides has become a natural screen, enclosing a completely closed and narrow space, and no one can see everything inside except for the clouds in the sky.

When Liu Zixuan, who was sweating all over his face, just got out of the grass, Gu Nanyan asked, "What are you busy doing there?" Look at you tired! ”

"Come and see for yourself."

Gu Nanyan rolled up her trousers, took off her shoes and put them in her hands, and tiptoed into the water. The two feet with fine skin and tender flesh stepped on the stones at the bottom of the stream, Liu Zixuan on the other side was stunned, under the clear stream, through a layer of snow-white skin, he could see the fine green tendons on the surface of the feet, and the ten slender toes were close to each other one by one, like a bunch of white flowers blooming on bellflowers...... The calm stream had fine lines, swinging into Liu Zixuan's heart, to his surprise, this pair of feet that had always been hidden in the shoe pit was also so good-looking, he slept in a bed for more than a year, why didn't he pay attention to them?

"What are you in a daze, don't pull me quickly."

Liu Zixuan stretched out his hand, Gu Nanyan pulled it, and the two of them stood close to each other.

Gu Nanyan was bending over to put on her shoes, and Liu Zixuan said: "It's so fragrant!" ”

"What incense?"

"You smell good."

"What kind of dream talk in the middle of the day, it's still fragrant, and it's smelly and sweaty."

Liu Zixuan sniffled, and was about to carefully distinguish the smell of sweat, but Gu Nanyan had already put on her shoes and walked into the reeds in a few steps. Seeing the shallow pit dug by Liu Zixuan, she turned around and said, "You let me take a bath here?" ”

Liu Zixuan smiled and didn't speak, picked up the bucket and went to carry water.

After a while, the pit paved with stones was filled with water, and he went back to the house and brought a thick canvas, which he spread out and spread beside the puddle...... Liu Zixuan was very proud to be able to do such a thing for Gu Nanyan, as if this was the most meaningful labor in his life. After doing this, he looked accomplished and said with a smile: "In another hour, the water will be hot." ”

"You can figure it out."

"I'll make do with it first, and I'll buy you a bathtub in a few days."

……

After noon, the sun was slightly westward, Liu Zixuan went to the puddle to test the water temperature, and said to Gu Nanyan that he could take a bath.

Seeing that he had put so much effort into causing this puddle, Gu Nanyan didn't hesitate, went into the house to change his clothes, and went into the reeds. Before entering the bushes, he did not forget to turn around and say, "You sit by the well, and do not go far." ”

"Rest assured, there will be no outsiders in this place."

After a while, the clear sound of water came from the grass.

After most of the spring sun and rain, the bull head slope revealed a group of green vitality, Liu Zixuan looked at it from afar, thinking about the current situation, which he couldn't even dream of a few years ago, isn't it the day he has always wanted? Thinking about the situation a year ago, Liu Zixuan suddenly felt that he was the luckiest one in the world, although the heavens ruthlessly took away his parents, but now he was merciful and sent down a Gu Nanyan, isn't it because of her arrival that the original gloomy days have been enriched? There are no children in the world who cry all night, and God will never be mean to poor people all the time......

Just as he was thinking about it, a wild bird flew in the southeast, which knotted Liu Zixuan's thoughts.

With a brown-red back and a wedge-shaped tail, a butcher bird flew closer and closer. The wild bird flew over as if no one was around, and landed on the fence of the vegetable garden on the east side. Liu Zixuan saw that the wild bird that suddenly flew close was holding a wild mouse in its mouth, and as soon as it stood firm, it hung the dead mouse on the tip of a branch, and then showed its short beak with a hook like an eagle falcon, and tore the rat meat piece by piece.

Liu Zixuan was distracted, and he couldn't even hear the sound of water coming from the other side of the stream. Quietly, after half an hour, the butcher bird flew away, and the wild mouse it had brought with me, with only a poor rat's head, still hanging high on the hedge.

In this way, a wild bird flew back and forth, as ordinary as wind and rain, but after the wild bird flew away today, it solved a mystery in Liu Zixuan's heart. This is lovely and respectable nature, which always has unexpected sights to look at. It turned out that the animal heads found earlier were just food scraps left by a wild bird, and the vegetable garden fence that had been repaired recently provided a good feeding ground for the butcher bird, which made the previous strange and terrifying scene.

Looking at the rat head that was still dripping blood, Liu Zixuan smiled knowingly, it was not a trick of the yellow skin at all, but the eating habits of the yellow skin were just similar to that of the butcher bird, so it was self-defeating and frightened himself. It can be seen that there was a lot of heart at the beginning, and there were no animals to drive people away from this post, so why not many things in this world? made something out of nothing, but in the end, it ended up with a self-deceptive joke......

was sighing at the wonder of this world, and suddenly a scream came from behind him: "Zixuan, hurry up, there is a snake!" ”

When he came back to his senses, Liu Zixuan hurriedly crossed the creek, took three steps and made two steps, and couldn't wait to run to Gu Nanyan's side in one step, shouting as he ran: "Where is it?" Where is the snake......"

Liu Zixuan didn't see the snake, only Gu Nanyan under the sun. It is as full of budding as a puffed flower bone, and as plump and plump as a stripped corn cob. I only saw Gu Nanyan's black hair wet, strands attached to her shoulders, and below it was a white and clean body, which was smooth and slippery, and she didn't even wear a button on her chest...... Liu Zixuan didn't dare to look more, but he couldn't take his eyes off, how could he have thought that under the various clothes of the day, there was such a thrilling scene.

The sun was dazzling, the shadows of the reed grass were one by one, and the breeze blew, and a few lucky shadows of the reed grass shook on the smooth body, coming from the left, going back from the right, two or three back and forth, trance Liu Zixuan's mind, invigorating Liu Zixuan's body, there was a bow, open in his body.

"Where is the serpent?" Liu Zixuan hung his head and asked slowly.

On the old canvas, Gu Nanyan slowly lay down her bare body, and the two protrusions on her chest were as tall and straight as the two mountains not far away. Facing Liu Zixuan's gaze, I only heard her say softly: "Our mother's mourning period has reached the anniversary, I want a child, no matter how many excuses you have, don't tell me ...... at this time."

The warm wind shook the reeds, the sun blew the dandelions, a quail startled the nest and flew away, and a few cuckoos came out of the mountains and forests, waking up a lively and warm summer.
