After the powerful minister was reborn, he married the delicate girl back home
Chapter 42 Li Jiarong enters the mountain
"Rong Niang, look, it's raining outside!" Gu Xingmo stood in front of the window and said in surprise.
Li Jiaorong put down the tea cup she had just brought and joked with a smile: "It's just rain. Brother Gu, it's not like you haven't seen it before. Why are you so excited like a child?"
Looking at the thin raindrops outside the window, Gu Xingmo murmured, "It's different, this is different rain."
How long has it been since you watched the rain with the little girl? Gu Xingmo couldn't remember. She was only in her early twenties when she died. After that, he never took a good look at the rain again.
Li Jiaorong likes rain. Every rainy day, she always likes to sit on the chaise longue and eat cakes. After eating, she likes to swing her legs and fall into dreamland. She sleeps very sweetly. When it was cold, I covered myself with a piece of fox fur, huddled in a small ball inside, and slept until the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and I didn't care.
Every time he sees her like this, Gu Xingmo's heart immediately softens, and no matter how many worries he has, they disappear.
He even wanted to find someone to order a big chair, and then the two of them would lie on it, and he would hug her, swaying like this, and never let go until he was old.
But before the chair could be finished, there was no one else in the world to sit on the chair with him.
Gu Xingmo's mood suddenly dropped. Recently, he always remembered a lot of things that he never dared to think of before, good, bad... there were many, many, many. When he thought of that moment of joy, he was left with nothing but emptiness afterward. .
Li Jiaorong quickly noticed something was wrong with Gu Xingmo. He was obviously very happy when he saw the rain. Why did he become so silent again after just a short while?
She didn't understand, but she didn't want to see Brother Gu so depressed, so she asked softly: "Brother Gu, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Xingmo came back to his senses, looked at the little girl's worried eyes, smiled dumbly, and then stretched out his hand towards her.
Li Jiaorong understood what he meant, but she was worried that Aunt Gu and the other three would bump into her, so she didn't reach out. Instead, she walked to Gu Xingmo's side in small steps, leaned down slightly and lay by the window to watch the rain.
The hand stretched out, and Gu Xingmo had no choice but to take it back, put it on the top of the little girl's hair, and then played with her soft black hair hanging behind her back.
"Brother Gu, what were you thinking about just now? You were so fascinated by your thoughts that you felt like you were going to cry the next moment." After all, she couldn't hold back the curiosity in her heart. Li Jiorong looked up at Gu Xingmo, puzzled. Asked.
"I miss another old friend." Gu Xingmo replied.
"Old friend, is this old friend a man or a woman? An old man or a child? In his prime or half-aged?"
Li Jiaorong's questions made Gu Xingmo a little excited, but he didn't show it on his face. He teased: "Then let me ask you, what should I do if I am a woman? What should I do if I am a man?"
Faced with his rhetorical question, Li Jiaorong was very unhappy and said confidently: "No, I was the one who asked first."
Gu Xingmo really didn't want to make people anxious, so he nodded obediently, "Well, you asked first, but my old friend... let's not mention it for now."
Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, Li Jiaorong didn't force it, so she could only wait for the day when Brother Gu was willing to talk to her.
Originally, she was looking forward to rain so that she could go into the mountains to collect some wild mushrooms after the rain and give some to the driver. After all, they usually helped her a lot. If she put a few hunting traps along the way, she could It's best to catch some small prey, but if you can't catch it, don't force it, it all depends on luck.
The rain was gentle and continuous, and it didn't end until the next day. Early in the morning, Li Jiarong carried her bamboo basket and found an excuse to go home.
In the past, she had always hoped that her father would change his ways, so she had always protected her father's butcher knife and sharpened it. The edge of the knife was still as sharp as before, but now that her father had no chance to use it, it was convenient for her.
Li Jiaorong put a thick layer of straw in the bamboo basket, put the knife on it, and then spread another layer of straw to cover the knife tightly. Then she brought several animal traps from home, I don't know how many years ago these clips were, and each one was a little rusty. Just opening them took a lot of effort, but they looked still usable. As long as they were usable, she didn't pick on them.
After grabbing her things and carrying a big bamboo basket on her back, Li Jiaorong quietly headed into the mountains alone. She would not go too deep. After all, there were many wild things in the mountains and they were still dangerous.
Li Jiaorong walked through the woods and into the mountains. Not long after walking, she saw a ginkgo tree with dense fungus growing on its bark. It had been moistened by the rain and looked very plump. This made her very happy. Hum He quickly picked up the fungus while listening to the songs he learned from Gu Xu.
It is only May now, when wild vegetables are in bloom. Li Jiaorong has also picked a lot. She plans to sell all the chickens she has raised in a few days, exchange them for half a bag of white flour, and make some wild vegetable steamed buns. Aunt Gu and Sister-in-law Gu likes this bite the most.
After picking things, Li Jiarong saw a small red flower growing on the side. This flower looked very strange. It did not have petals. Instead, it was composed of small red fruits as big as beads, with a few falling on them. The small green fruit made Li Jiaorong a little curious. She thought: Sure enough, there are many good things in the mountains. She had never seen this kind of flower before. It was quite beautiful. But she didn't know if she could plant it when she took it back. It’s best to be fed at home.
Carefully pushing aside the oval leaves, Li Jiaorong searched for the roots of the flower and pulled up the soil with her hands. She had to protect the roots of the flower, otherwise her work would be in vain.
While digging and digging, Li Jiaorong saw a piece of ginger-yellow stuff. She thought it was a root, so she dug again. She thought it was almost there, so she carefully pulled it up by the root. Although the flowers in the mountains grow all year round, After being exposed to wind and rain, its vitality will be slightly stronger, but it is not easy to raise. You must not damage its roots, and you must treat it carefully in the future.
But this flower was really strange, with big roots and long whiskers. Li Jiaorong looked at it curiously for a long time, and then carefully put it into her bamboo basket, along with the wild vegetables and fungi she had picked earlier. Carry away together.
After doing this, Li Jiaorong started to put the animal traps. Since she had never hunted before and didn't know how to put them, she just followed her subconscious.
So the four animal traps were placed very close. Fortunately, she knew how to disguise the 'traps' so that the prey would not find them. Li Jiaorong looked around and placed the traps on the four animal traps. Each was covered with a layer of wild grass.
The green weeds covered all the traps. Looking at this scene, Li Jiarong couldn't help but feel a little proud, because she felt that she was still very talented.
Seeing that it was getting late, and for fear that her family would be suspicious and that wild beasts would come out late, Li Jiaorong did not dare to delay any longer. Instead, she carried the bamboo basket on her back and followed the path she walked in, slowly walking out of the woods. .
Walking on the path home, Li Jiaorong was almost overjoyed. Her trip was really fruitful. Not only did she pick a lot of wild fungus and wild vegetables, but she also dug out a very strange-looking flower. But again, Its peculiarity does not affect its beauty. Li Jiaorong likes this flower very much and plans to plant it in her vegetable patch first to see if it can survive.
After packing them up, Li Jiaorong began to think about her animal trap. She didn't know if there would be any prey. If so, it would be best. If not, just keep putting it out next time. If you leave it out for a long time, you will always be able to catch a pheasant or a pheasant. Small game such as hares.
