Chapter Twenty-Nine: Wild Mountain Fruit

Chen Xiaonian was a little embarrassed by him.

She was just about to retract her feet, but Jiro had already turned his back and motioned for her to come up.

"I'm fine. It doesn't hurt anymore. ”

She drank the spiritual spring water, and the injury was no longer painful, but it was still a little inconvenient to walk.

It doesn't take a few steps to get home, and even after going back, there are no traces on my feet.

"I ...... Yes! ”

She had barely said a word, and suddenly her feet were in the air, and then her whole body lost her balance, and she only had time to exclaim.

By the time she reacted, Erlang had already stopped her on his shoulder, protected her with one hand, lifted the pheasant and basket with the other, and strode home.

I heard someone shout, "Ah! Isn't this the son-in-law of Chen Xiaonian's family! I don't know, I thought it was a bandit who robbed a girl. ”

……

She wanted to straighten up and see who was chewing the root of her tongue, but Erlang's steps were fast, and before she could raise her head, she had already walked a long way.

"Ouch, I'm not ashamed to be in broad daylight."

"What is he carrying? Hit a pheasant down again? ”

"Why is this door-to-door son-in-law of his family so capable of you? My man has been up the mountain a few times, but he can't even catch a quail. ”

His shoulders were wide and his back was broad, and Chen Xiaonian didn't feel pain at all.

In the past, it was a long distance, and he seemed to be able to walk in three or two steps.

Hearing the movement, Wang came out to take a look, was startled at first, and after seeing it clearly, he smiled and turned around and entered the house.

After Erlang put the pheasant and basket in the courtyard, he took Chen Xiaonian back to the room, put her on the bed without saying anything, and then squatted down again, let her foot step on his knee, and opened his trouser leg to check the injury.

His movements were done in one go, and there was nothing superfluous at all.

But......

Erlang looked shocked and looked at her fair and beautiful ankles in disbelief.

I don't know when some of the swollen places just now have disappeared, and there is not even a trace of it.

He held that foot and looked left and right for a long time.

Chen Xiaonian blushed a little and felt a little weak.

"I just said it's okay, you don't believe it."

She retracted her feet, and although Jiro let go, his eyes were still on her.

She jumped off the bed, not to mention humming, she didn't even frown, how could she look like she had been injured just now.

Seeing her fleeing in the wilderness, Erlang couldn't help laughing.

When he smiled, the doubts in his heart were even greater.

He untied his clothes and looked at the old scars that had gradually faded for a long time.

Chen Xiaonian was shouting in the courtyard for the Wang family to help, and when he heard them mention the basket of wild fruits, Erlang hurriedly put away his thoughts and walked out.

looked at the two people who were busy in the courtyard, and then looked at the Chen family in front of them, and even the layers of green mountains and mountains that could be seen at a glance.

Erlang's eyes sank, his injuries could be healed instantly, the old scars could be dispelled, and Chen Xiaonian's injuries could be like a person who was okay for a moment, probably because of the feng shui of Heshan Village.

He found a bamboo basket, put two pheasants in it, and prepared to sell it in the town to-morrow.

I saw that they were washing wild fruits, and I also went over to help them get together.

Chen Xiaonian pointed to the kitchen, "You go and boil water, half a pot is enough." ”

Wang thought she was hungry, so he hurriedly shook the water in his hand, "I'll come, I'll come." ”

Chen Xiaonian lowered his head and covered his flushed cheeks. "Mother, he can't do this careful work, let him boil water, you stay and help me."

Waiting for the people around him to squat down, Chen Xiaonian breathed a sigh of relief, and when he raised his head just now, he was met by Erlang's burning gaze.

She hurriedly lowered her head, scolding herself in her heart for being unproductive, she had a few relationships in her previous life, and she had watched a lot of various bloody novels and TV series, why did she look like a hairy girl who didn't know anything about the world now, and she blushed!

A pair of big hands suddenly appeared in front of her, and before she could dodge, Jiro had gently helped her smooth the loose hair on her forehead behind her ears.

Chen Xiaonian's heart was suffocated.

And Erlang was lowering his head and washing the fruit, as if nothing had happened just now.

Chen Xiaonian stabilized his mind, cleaned the fruit quickly, picked out a few, and let Erlang put the rest away.

After simply disposing of the kernel, Chen Xiaonian threw the wild fruit into a pot of boiling hot water.

Wang didn't understand, "What are you messing up with this kid?" Can wild fruits still be boiled and eaten? ”

She was mysterious, "Mother, you will know when you taste it in a while." ”

The fruit was already very sweet, and she secretly got some spiritual spring water, and even saved maltose.

When the fruit is fully cooked, just three bowls are served.

Wang Shui moved the needle and thread to the courtyard, and while it was still dark, he hurried to make two more puppets.

The eyes in his hand had just been sewn up, and Chen Xiaonian had already brought out two bowls and handed them to the two of them.

Both of them were stunned.

Wang's eyes were slightly red, "Nian, our family...... Isn't our family ......?"

There is no silver again......

Wang was stuck in his throat, so he could only swallow his words back.

Erlang stared at the contents of the bowl for a long time, and his heart also had the same thoughts as Wang's.

Chen Xiaonian lit up a pair of apricot eyes, "Taste it." ”

Jiro hesitated for a moment and took a sip.

With tears in his eyes, Wang also tasted it.

As soon as they took a bite into their throats, the two of them paused significantly, and looked at Chen Xiaonian unexpectedly.

The juice is sweet and sour, and the mouth is full of relish. It lacks the crispness of fresh fruits, but has a richer taste.

Even Erlang, who has never liked sweets, stretched his eyebrows.

Chen Xiaonian was apprehensive. "How's it going, is it okay?"

Wang finished eating a bowl in three or two bites, and said in surprise: "Can the fruit still be eaten like this?" ”

Chen Xiaonian took out his bowl and divided it into three parts.

She tasted it, probably adding some spiritual spring water, and always felt that the boiled wild fruits had a more unique taste than those canned fruits she had eaten in her previous life.

She smiled, "If you like it, eat more, and I'll do it tomorrow." I thought about it when Jiro picked the fruit for me yesterday, but I didn't expect it to be more delicious than I thought. There is a large forest of wild fruits in the mountains, and I am going to make it tomorrow and take it to the town to sell. ”

After that, she called out to Wang: "Mother, you go with us tomorrow." ”

There is a way to make money again, Wang is happy in his heart, and he agrees simply.

"Done!"

Chen Xiaonian was just about to put the bowl away, but Erlang suddenly grabbed her and handed her his bowl, just like the night of marriage.

She looked up, "You don't like to eat?" ”

Jiro didn't speak, just bent the corners of his lips and ruffled her hair.

Chen Xiaonian dodged away, "Why do you always mess with my hair, I'm not a child." ”

Jiro still didn't speak, but the smile on his lips became more and more obvious.

Chen Xiaonian suddenly realized that when he first came to Chen's house, Erlang had no emotion on his face, and he looked at the honest Mune, but now he loves to laugh.

It's a little nice to laugh at.
