Chapter 155 Wake up
The night in the mountains was still quite cold, but the three of them had been traveling for a long time, and they knew that they had to bring a thick quilt so that they would not freeze themselves.
It's just that Li Congwen looked at the empty house, waved a folding fan and pointed around the house, "Yang Daochang, it doesn't matter if you don't have a roof in this house, and you don't even have a piece of furniture in the house?"
Yang Xiaoyang's face darkened, can he say that he forgot to do it? Of course not.
"It's hard to enjoy the idyllic scenery, what's wrong with sleeping on the floor? Look at the horses in the yard, lying on the ground and falling asleep. ”
Li Congwen didn't really care, but it had become instinct to sarcastically mock Yang Xiaoyang. He brought the bed from the carriage, wrapped himself in a quilt and fell asleep.
Yang Xiaoyang spread a few more layers of quilts in the middle of Ju Yeqi, don't fall asleep and freeze to death.
Then he saw Xiao Di wrapping herself like a ball, and Yang Xiaoyang estimated that she would be able to roll all the way down the mountain by pushing her.
Seeing this, Ju Yeqi chuckled and said, "It's really tight on the body." ”
Yang Xiaoyang patted his head, put candles on them, lit incense for insect repellent and said that he would rest early, opened the curtain and went out.
Li Congwen was snoring for a moment, and Yang Xiaoyang was lying next to him, feeling that the moonlight was too bright tonight.
Although it is also a novelty to be able to see the moon when you sleep, it is not easy to fall asleep after all, and Yang Xiaoyang plans to lay the top early tomorrow.
Oh, and the furniture.
It's rare that Yang Xiaoyang didn't think about being lazy, I don't know if he accidentally tasted the joy of work, or if this place is too much like a home.
......
Early in the morning of the second day, Yang Xiaoyang woke up with Li Congwen's snoring, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he was greeted by the dazzling sunshine.
It's just that the sun is very dazzling, Yang Xiaoyang still rubbed his eyes and got up, but he didn't feel sleepy, he was just lazy.
At this time, Ju Yeqian and Xiao Di also walked out, Yang Xiaoyang poured water for the two of them, and glanced at Li Congwen, "Why don't we go to Le's hometown to eat." ”
Xiao Di remembered yesterday's chicken and plum dew, and nodded hurriedly.
Ju Yeqian gently kicked Li Congwen, and Li Congwen continued to sleep without even turning over.
"Leave him alone, let's go. ”
It was very cold in the mountains in the early morning, so Yang Xiaoyang took a robe for Ju Yeqian and covered her body before letting her go out.
Cross the stream that flows endlessly and come to the gate of Lexiu's courtyard. There was no gate in the yard, and even the fence was low in a circle, so that it reached the knee and could be crossed with one foot.
Yang Xiaoyang couldn't tell if Le Xiu got up, after all, this was an old man who watched other people's labor as fun.
When Yang Xiaoyang was struggling with whether to shout, Le Xiu and Le He came out.
"Yo, it's not easy for young people to get up so early, are you in a hurry to help me with my work?" Le Xiu walked to the wheat pile and looked at it, and nodded, "It's rare that there is no fog this morning, let's beat the wheat later, let's eat first." ”
Yang Xiaoyang was overjoyed, but listened to Le Xiu and said, "Go and bring my table and put it in the yard to eat." ”
"Le Lao, why don't you get a table again? Yang Xiaoyang said with a bitter face.
Le Xiu patted his head, "You reminded me, wait a while, carve a stone table and a stone chair for me to put in the yard, the wood has been placed outside and is easy to rot." ”
The corners of Yang Xiaoyang's mouth twitched, regretting that he had asked more, and hurriedly used the handling technique to get tables and chairs, saving Lexiu and getting a gazebo or something.
"Alas, you young man doesn't like to work, no. Le Xiu shook his head slightly at Yang Xiaoyang and sighed.
There were a few bowls on the table, as well as a few jars.
Le Xiu pouted again, "There is still freshly cooked porridge in the kitchen." ”
Yang Xiaoyang calmly served porridge to a few people, and when he saw that Le Xiu didn't speak again, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly sat down.
Xiao Di was staring at the clay pots at this time, and when she saw Le Xiu uncovering all the clay pots, she asked, "Grandpa Le, what's in here?"
Le He didn't wait for her grandfather to speak, and preemptively said, "It's jam inside!"
"Jam?" Xiao Di remembered eating it in Shuzhong, looking at the big jars, with a look of envy, "Jam costs a lot of money, and at that time, Xiao Yang only bought me a little bit every time!"
Yang Xiaoyang's face was dark, and eating jam was either rich or expensive. Although it is not unaffordable, this thing is not easy to store, and a store only sells a little bit every day, can I buy you a good one?
Lehe pointed to the clay pots and smiled at Xiao Di: "This is raspberry sauce, this is ketchup, and this is peach sauce, children love to eat it." You can eat as much as you want, I am much more generous than your brother, old man. ”
Lehe nodded in agreement.
Yang Xiaoyang looked at them with a dark face, and he decided that if Lehe agreed with his stinginess, he would not let him eat them...... Their......
Yang Xiaoyang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly found that he really didn't have anything to take.
Who the hell is this Lexiu? It's Gujing Chun again, it's jam again, and he says that he is not a big person, who believes it?
"Thank you, grandpa. "Little Teaser.
She only dug a spoonful into each jar, and the amount of porridge was just right.
Yang Xiaoyang knew that she was not polite, and she must have felt that it would be a waste to eat jam if the porridge was gone.
Xiao Di tasted it, her eyes widened, and she took it in her mouth for a long time before swallowing it.
Then he suddenly turned his head to look at Yang Xiaoyang and looked at him frantically.
The corners of Yang Xiaoyang's mouth twitched, and he asked Le Xiu with a smile, "Le Lao, how do you make this jam?"
Le Xiu touched Lehe's head, "Hehe, you say." ”
Lehe stretched out his tongue and licked the jam at the corner of his mouth, and after thinking about it, he said, "It's grown in the ground!"
This kid is really stupid, Yang Xiaoyang can conclude.
Lexiu noticed the gazes of several people and coughed dryly, "I didn't see this kid when I made jam, hehe." ”
He paused, and then said: "There is nothing difficult about jam, let's just talk about the peach sauce, peel and core the peaches, add sugar and boil them in a pot." After boiling, add the juice of honey and mother's fruit, and it can be stored for a long time. ”
"Yimu fruit, what's that?" Yang Xiaoyang was dumbfounded, he hadn't heard of this thing at all.
"Well, I really don't know. That's only in Southern Xinjiang and Yuedi, and Nanyang sometimes pays tribute, so I'll show you later. ”
"Southern Xinjiang too?" Yang Xiaoyang was even more stupid, "Then where did you come from?"
"I bought it. After Le Xiu finished speaking, he didn't pay attention to him anymore, and ate the porridge slowly.
He didn't think of one thing until he finished eating, "Where is Gongzi Li?
Yang Xiaoyang only ate one bite of jam and didn't eat more, and he didn't move again after drinking the porridge in three or two sips.
"Congwen is still sleeping, and he can't wake up. ”
Le Xiu nodded, "Li Gongzi is a wonderful person, he does things casually, and he is an official." ”
Why don't you say two sentences when Li Congwen doesn't like to work?
Yang Xiaoyang didn't have time to slander this point before he retorted: "He doesn't like to read, how can he become an official?"
Le Xiu sighed, "A person who loves to read or reads well may not be a good official, and vice versa. ”
After he finished speaking, he entered the house, Yang Xiaoyang looked at his back, and felt that he was more like an old man from a farmer's house at this time.
Yang Xiaoyang thought that he would be sad for a while after entering the house, but he didn't expect him to come out with a pot in one hand and a piece of cloth in the other.
He threw the cloth to Yang Xiaoyang and waved his hand at the others, "Let's go out and play first, the dust is very big when you beat wheat." ”
It's naturally fun to go out to play, and Xiao Di jumped out first.
Yang Xiaoyang took the cloth and said to a few people Don't go far, and saw Le Xiu bring a flail, "Beat lightly." ”
The flail consists of a long handle and a set of flat rows of bamboo or planks, which are specially used to beat the grain and cause the kernels to fall.
Yang Xiaoyang didn't use it, but when he saw that someone had done it, he spread the wheat pusher, covered his mouth and nose with a cloth, and then raised the flail and waved it down.
Lexiu didn't go far, drinking the tea in the teapot while watching from a distance.
Yang Xiaoyang kept repeating an action, and his face was still a little impatient at first, but gradually his expression softened and his movements were soothed.
Le Xiu smiled, there was no need to carry so much baggage, why not put it down and rest.
"After threshing, put the wheat in the yard to dry for two days, take some of the wheat stalks and spread them in my field, and leave me some braided straw hats, and you can take the rest to paste the roof of the house, remember to add some mud. After saying that, Lexiu left.
Yang Xiaoyang turned his back to the sun, and as the sun rose, the blazing sunlight shone in the courtyard, making the originally cold courtyard a little warmer.
It is rare for Yang Xiaoyang to do one thing calmly, forgetting why he wants to do it, and he does not mix feelings, he just does it simply.
In front of him was the residual coolness of the morning, and on his back was the laziness of Xia Tian, Yang Xiaoyang felt that this was not bad.
There wasn't a lot of wheat, and it didn't take long to finish the beating. Yang Xiaoyang tied the wheat stalks into several bundles and spread them in the field, took some more to the stream, mixed some with some wet mud, and climbed to the roof with the wheat stalks.
Yang Xiaoyang didn't know how to shop, and looked at Li Congwen, who was still asleep under the sun in the house, and suddenly smiled.
How do you want to shop, how to shop, we are not building a palace, whatever, don't you just want to have fun?
Yang Xiaoyang didn't realize that he had found something interesting to do, so he spread the wheat stalks layer by layer, and tied them up if there was a place that was not strong.
An hour later, Yang Xiaoyang looked at the thatched roof in front of him with satisfaction, felt that it should be no problem to block the rain, jumped down with satisfaction, and happened to see Li Congwen coming out.
The sun didn't wake him up, but the sun woke up without him.
Li Congwen rubbed his eyes, looked up at the roof suspiciously, looked at Yang Xiaoyang suspiciously, scratched his head and asked, "Why did you wake up with an extra roof, and you have changed into a different person?"
"Of course I built the top, and where have I changed?"
"I didn't have any regrets in this life before, but now I will have fun by myself, haven't you changed your personality?" Li Congwen yawned.
