After that, Lu Yingchun didn't wait for Lu Zhengan to come over, and immediately ran out of the yard with a basket, leaving Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu with embarrassed faces relatively speechless.

CHAPTER XXV

Lu Yingchun's words really embarrassed the two of them for a while, but Lu Zhengan thought of the dried and charred wheat seedlings that had been sunburned, so he didn't care about anything else.

Let Song Huaishu rest in the shade of the tree at the door first, and then go to the field to work.

Song Huaishu saw that Lu Zheng'an was working alone, where could he sit still, and saw that it was really hard for him to grind wheat with a cow and shake the wheat seedlings with a wooden fork, so he recommended himself to help.

Song Huaishu came to the door as a guest, and Lu Zhengan was embarrassed to let his family do this kind of physical work no matter how thick-skinned he was.

However, thinking of Song Huaishu, who was depressed some time ago, I feel that it may be a good thing for him to experience this kind of physical work.

It's just that Song Huaishu is wearing a long shirt, and it is really inconvenient to lead the cow to the wheat seedlings, Lu Zhengan thought that there were still a few sets of clothes he wore in the cabinet, so he went home and found them for Song Huaishu to change.

However, Lu Zhengan's height when he was a teenager was still much higher than Song Huaishu.

Song Huaishu carried the clothes, thinking that this dress had been worn by Lu Zhengan in the past, and he had an indescribable feeling in his heart. The whole person only felt numb all over his body, as if he had drunk too much.

However, at the moment, Lu Zhengan is still waiting for him outside, and since he is here to help with the work, there is no reason to be lazy.

It's just that Lu Zhengan's clothes are really bigger, and Song Huaishu looks wide and big on his body, at first glance, he looks like a child stealing adult clothes, which is really funny.

Song Huaishu awkwardly led the old scalper around the venue round and round, with a serious and serious expression.

Seeing this, Lu Zhengan was embarrassed to think about anything else, and began to shake the wheat seedlings that had been crushed with a wooden fork.

Song Huaishu, who was holding the cow, noticed that Lu Zhengan's gaze had finally moved away from him, and he was secretly relieved in his heart.

Looking down at the hem of the clothes that almost hung down to his thighs, he lifted up uncomfortably. Later, after finding out that this move was just covering his ears and stealing the bell, he went with him.

There are only two people here and right, he and Lu Zhengan, even if they are embarrassed, no outsiders can see them.

In the end, the two of them had great strength, but in an hour, the two of them shook the wheat seedlings in the entire field.

Seeing that Song Huaishu's sunburned cheeks were red, Lu Zhengan hurriedly asked him to go back and wash his face. He rubbed the milled wheat grains into the open space next to him with a dustpan, so that when the wind blows, the bran in the wheat grains will be blown out.

After Song Huaishu washed his face, he cut a few slices of watermelon and took them out. Seeing that Lu Zhengan was still busy in the field, he held the watermelon and walked in the direction where Lu Zhengan was.

However, at this moment, Song Huaishu suddenly heard the crying of a child next to him.

The two subconsciously looked at the source of the sound, and saw that Ge Pozi was frowning and pulling the child in front of him who was running here.

The boy was only four or five years old, and his coarse cloth clothes were so dirty that he could not see the original color. The shoes on his feet were also worn to the bare toes, and the whole person was thin and small, whimpering and saying that he wanted to eat watermelon, which looked really pitiful.

Regarding Mrs. Ge's mother, Lu Zhengan has not had a good impression of her since she was born. At this time, seeing her grandson crying and making trouble, Lu Zhengan just couldn't hear it.

However, Song Huaishu was a little unbearable, and took two slices of watermelon and walked towards the two.

Since Mrs. Ge spread rumors that Lu Zheng'an and Widow Zhou were not innocent, and after Widow Zhou smashed the house with a big stick, the whole person was also settled.

Today, Mrs. Ge originally planned to take her grandson to the field to pick up ears of wheat, but she didn't expect to walk to the door of Lu's house and just saw Song Huaishu coming out with a watermelon.

At this time, watermelon is still relatively expensive, and most people are reluctant to buy it. Ge Pozi's family is still good to be able to eat well, where will there be spare money to buy watermelons for children to satisfy their hunger.

At this time, seeing that the watermelon children could still endure it, they naturally went to ask for it.

With such a precious thing, Mrs. Ge also expected them to give it, but what she didn't expect was that the other party not only gave it, but also gave two pieces at once, which made Mrs. Ge really a little surprised.

It wasn't until the little grandson devoured a slice of watermelon that Mrs. Ge looked at Song Huaishu, who was dressed in coarse cloth, and Lu Zheng'an, who was still gathering wheat grains in the field, and thanked him in a low voice.

Song Huaishu nodded at Mrs. Ge and was about to turn around and leave, only to hear Mrs. Ge suddenly ask, "You are the newly married brother of that kid of the Lu family, right?" I didn't expect the Lu family kid to be very good, but his vision is good. ”

After that, Mrs. Ge lowered her head and touched her little grandson who was gnawing on watermelon, her eyes full of pity.

Song Huaishu wanted to be a little embarrassed by Mrs. Ge's words, and wanted to explain that he and Song Huaishu were not brothers.

But somehow, he never got his mouth open. It was only when Mrs. Ge wiped the juice from her little grandson's mouth that she argued for Lu Zhengan: "Lu Zhengan treats people sincerely, is loyal and honest, and is a good person." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Ge looked up at Song Huaishu in some surprise, and saw that his face was crimson, but his eyes were firm, and he was stunned for a moment but didn't say anything. Bow your head and lead the little grandson who broke into tears and laughed and gradually moved away.

Watching Ge Pozi slowly disappear on the mountain road, Song Huaishu turned around and went back.

Lu Zhengan always felt that Mrs. Ge had some mental problems, and he didn't want to pay attention to it, and Mrs. Ge had trouble with him several times, so he didn't have a good impression of her.

Regarding Song Huaishu's sending things to Mrs. Ge, Lu Zhengan would not interfere arbitrarily. Just looking at Mrs. Ge's calm face, she obviously couldn't say anything good about Song Huaishu.

Song Huaishu is also a guest of his family, and it is not easy to help with the work. If he lets others bully him again, then he will be too sorry for others.

Just when Lu Zhengan wanted to come forward to help Song Huaishu come out, he saw that Mrs. Ge actually pulled her grandson and left. It's just that Song Huai's writing color is crimson, and his expression is extremely uncomfortable, and Lu Zhengan still thinks he is angry.

immediately opened his mouth to comfort: "Mrs. Ge is a bastard, don't take it to heart what she says." When you see this person again in the future, you try not to deal with her. ”

Song Huaishu knew that Lu Zheng'an had misunderstood, and wanted to help Mrs. Ge explain a few sentences, but what he said to Mrs. Ge was true and it was not good to tell Lu Zheng'an, so he nodded and had to give up.

……

The weather in June is changing, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu just swept the wheat milled out of the field into a pile, ready to go into the house to wash their faces and cool down.

Suddenly, a large dark cloud blew from the south to the north, and in an instant the wind was fierce, and the clouds were thick, which was already a sign of a heavy rain.

Seeing this, Lu Zhengan dared to be in a daze, and hurriedly beckoned Song Huaishu to use a bamboo basket to help put the wheat into the hole in the warehouse.

This time the wind and rain came very quickly, and before the two of them could send all the wheat to the barn, the bean-sized rain fell on their heads and faces.

Song Huaishu watched the rain wash away the wheat grains, and his heart suddenly became anxious. Ignoring the lightning and thunder, the branches and leaves almost dragged to the ground, and rushed into the rain curtain again with the dustpan, squatting on the ground and putting the wheat grains with wheat bran and muddy water into the dustpan one by one.

Lu Zhengan didn't expect Song Huaishu to work so hard, and while he was moved in his heart, he was also worried that the branch above his head would be broken by lightning and fall and hurt the two of them, so he hurriedly rushed into the rain and dragged Song Huaishu into the room.

At this time, the two of them were already soaked, and their clothes were still dripping with water, and their clothes were tightly wrapped around their bodies, and when the wind blew, the two of them couldn't help but shiver.

Lu Zhengan wiped the rain from his face, found a set of dry clothes and cloth towels from the house and handed them to Song Huaishu. "Wipe it first and change the clothes on your body, if you get caught in the cold, you will suffer."

Song Huaishu looked at the dense rain curtain outside with a stunned expression, and muttered: "So much wheat has been washed away by the rain......

Lu Zhengan didn't expect Song Huaishu to be a master, so he couldn't help laughing, and at the same time comforted softly: "Planting crops is the work of watching the sky and eating, fortunately with you today, we harvested it in time and didn't wash away too much." But there is no pity to wash away, just as a ration for the birds on the mountain. ”

Song Huaishu naturally relied on the sky for food, but seeing that the things were already about to be put into the warehouse, they were washed away, and he always felt distressed.

Thinking of the wheat that was washed away, Song Huaishu was a little depressed. While wringing the water on the placket of his clothes, he looked at the heavy rain that seemed to be being poured outside, and no one spoke for a while, except for the sound of the rain outside, and the sound of each other's breathing could almost be heard in the room.

Lu Zhengan always felt that the quiet atmosphere made him panic, and he wanted to find a topic to talk about, but he didn't know what to say after thinking about it for a long time.

It wasn't until a cool breeze hit the door that Song Huaishu couldn't help but sneeze, and Lu Zhengan urged: "It's quite windy at the door, hurry up and change your clothes inside." ”

After Lu Zhengan finished speaking, he casually took off his dripping coat. was about to reach out to untie the strap of his underwear, but Song Huaishu on the opposite side seemed to step on a nail, and turned his back with a pout.

Song Huaishu: "You, why did you suddenly take off your clothes?" ”

Lu Zhengan, who had just dropped his shirt to his shoulders, looked at Song Huaishu inexplicably, and couldn't help crying and laughing. "Big brother, I'll just change my clothes, you scare me."

Song Huaishu knew that he had reacted a little too much, but Fang Cai's picture really made him a little unable to react.

Holding the clothes and cloth towels given by Lu Zheng'an, Song Huai didn't dare to reply, apologized stumblingly, and walked quickly to the west.

……

When Song Huaishu came out of the inner room, the gloomy weather seemed to be a little dim in the room, and only Lu Zheng'an, who was sitting at the door, could see it clearly. The tall man sat motionless on a small bamboo chair, and at first glance he looked a little lonely.

Raindrops from the eaves flowed down the river, smashing on the bluestone bricks at the doorway, splashing all over the ground. The wind stirred the blooming moons in the courtyard, and also blew the black hair draped behind the other party.

At this moment, Song Huaishu didn't dare to come out, for fear that as soon as he made a sound, the picture scroll in front of him would no longer exist.

Lu Zhengan: "It's raining heavily at this time, come and sit for a while." ”

Hearing this, Song Huaishu looked at Lu Zheng'an opposite, and immediately lowered his head after his eyes touched Lu Zheng'an's wide open clothes. "It's windy at this time, and you're carefully dyed with wind and cold, so you might as well change your clothes."

Lu Zheng'an responded, got up and came to Song Huaishu's side, turned his head to look at the door, and said: "This rain should not stop for a while, for the sake of safety, you can stay here for a while tonight." ”

CHAPTER XXVI

Since Lu Zhengan proposed to let Song Huaishu spend the night at his house, Song Huaishu's whole person began to be a little nervous with the naked eye.

Lu Zhengan knew that with Song Huaishu's temperament, he must not be accustomed to spending the night at other people's houses. However, at the moment, lightning and thunder are accompanied by violent storms, and it is certainly not safe to go down the mountain in this weather. Even Song Huaishu insisted on leaving, and Lu Zhengan also disagreed.

Song Huaishu also knew that it would be very dangerous to go down the mountain in this weather, so he didn't dare to insist. It's just that when the rain gets a little smaller, it's already a little dark outside.

"The weather is very gloomy, and there are many vacant rooms in my house, so you can stay at my house for the night for the time being, and then go back early tomorrow morning, and your uncle and aunt should understand. Otherwise, I won't worry about you going back alone, and I'll call you back and forth, maybe something will happen. ”

Lu Zhengan was afraid that Song Huaishu would be bored, and seeing that it would be dark for a while, he found two coats from the barn and took him to the orchard to check the situation.

It was not yet dark, and the two were in the orchard checking for water on the ground and picking up peaches that had been blown off by the wind. By the time they came out in the woods, it was already dark.

Song Huaishu had never engaged in such physical labor, and when he came out of the forest carrying a small half-basket of peaches on his back, he had forgotten the nervousness of spending the night at Lu Zheng'an's house, and he was hungry and exhausted, and he just wanted him to find a place to rest quickly.

Lu Zhengan looked at Song Huaishu, who gritted his teeth and secretly insisted, and couldn't help but laugh secretly, and the best way to relieve emotional tension was to work his muscles and bones, and he was so tired that he couldn't think of anything.

However, after all, the other party is a guest at the door, and it is not good to bully people too much. Knowing that Song Huaishu was really struggling to carry it, Lu Zhengan took the opportunity of walking behind Song Huaishu to quietly transfer a lot of peaches in his back basket.

By the time the two of them washed the mud off their feet, it was already dark. At this time, the light rain was still falling. Lu Zhengan helped Song Huaishu unload the back basket, let the other party sit down and rest first, and after moving the two back baskets at the door of the hall, he hung the wet clothes of the two under the eaves of the warehouse.

Coming out of the fuel lamp in the house, Lu Zhengan looked at Song Huaishu, whose eyes were completely empty, smiled, and went to the back vegetable garden with an oil-paper umbrella, plucked a handful of shallots and handed them to Song Huaishu, and asked him to choose to wash them.

Lu Zhengan: "I've been busy with me for so long, I should be hungry." I'll be fine tonight, I'll make you two of my favorite green onion cakes to eat. ”

Song Huaishu ate a small bowl of noodles at noon, and after a short day of busy work, his stomach was already empty. Hearing Lu Zhengan say this, it was not the same He was polite, and immediately nodded.

Although Song Huaishu is one year older than Lu Zhengan, he has an immature appearance. If you don't ask about your age, others will only think that you are a teenager of sixteen or seventeen.

Seeing Song Huaishu sitting on the small bamboo chair and nodding obediently, Lu Zhengan only felt that he was like a soft kitten, and people couldn't help but want to reach out and rub his head.

Fortunately, Lu Zhengan knew that Song Huaishu was shy, and he was afraid that he would only scare him if he rashly stretched out his hand. Therefore, although Lu Zheng'an was eager to move, he still restrained his impulse and turned around and went to the stove house.

In the past, Lu Zhengan loved to eat his mother's green onion cakes, but after being admitted to university, he had to make them by himself in order to satisfy his cravings.

Well, with his mother's remote guidance, Lu Zhengan also found some experience after overturning the car a few times. The green onion cake made is charred on the outside and inside on the inside, salty and fragrant, and the friends around him like it very much, and they have encouraged Lu Zhengan to simply set up a stall to sell cakes after graduation.

By the time Lu Zheng'an had made peace with him, Song Huaishu had already washed the shallots and cut them into chopped green onions.

Originally, Song Huaishu did not have much hope for Lu Zheng'an's craftsmanship, but after seeing Lu Zheng'an skillfully kneading the cake embryo, he silently came to the stove and started to burn the fire.

The rain outside was sometimes heavy and light, and the firewood in the drowning house was a little damp. After Song Huaishu lit it a few times, a small flame would be raised. At this time, Lu Zhengan had already rolled out two dough cakes, and after Song Huaishu had boiled the fire and the oil temperature in the pot had risen, Lu Zhengan used a rolling pin to pick up the rolled cakes and spread them into the pot.

When spreading the cake, the fire should not be too big or too small. The fire was too big, and the bread was black and charred, and the inside was not yet cooked. If the fire is too small, the cake will be 'angry' when spread out in the pot, and it will not be easy to rise to the layer.

Good In the two of them are experienced in cooking, and the cooperation is very appropriate, the scallion cake is golden and fragrant, just looking at the hook of the person's index finger.

After all five cakes were ready, Lu Zhengan choked on the oil pan with vinegar and chili peppers.
