Standing in the yard, Shang Qiulu ate the two steamed buns with vegetables and meat. He ate quickly and carefully.

Just after eating, Xie Huang, the tenant in the room next to Mrs. Zeng, also came back.

Xie Huang is a crab demon, and he can also be regarded as a local demon. Their family has lived under the Qingshui River for generations. By chance, Xie Huang ate half an egg yolk thrown into the water by others, and was immediately fascinated by this wonderful food. I have been fascinated by it, and I have never forgotten it for many years. The first thing I did after taking shape was to go to the shore to live, because in this way I can eat delicious egg yolks every day.

In order to express his deep love for egg yolk, Xie Huang originally planned to call him Xie Huang, but since he worked at the dock, the sour scholar who kept his wages disliked his name, so he changed it to "Xie Huang". , Huang means bamboo. Literati, all think that bamboo is extremely elegant and strong. It originally looked like a foodie name, but it suddenly became elegant.

The sour scholar was very proud of the name he changed for Xie Huang, but Xie Huang didn't care because he couldn't write at all.I don't know the difference between the two words at all.

"Give it to me?" Seeing the two vegetable and meat buns and a pack of maltose in Bai Chunsheng's hands, Xie Huang was a little surprised and excited, because this was the first time someone gave him a "gift" since he went ashore.

As a local monster, Xie Huang is actually very envious of other people who can receive gifts during New Years and festivals, but he has never received one.But this is normal, anyway, he has no relatives or friends on the shore.

Thinking of this, Xie Huang looked at Bai Chunsheng with bright eyes: "You, do you want to be friends with me?"

"Um, if you want." Bai Chunsheng didn't expect that someone would be friends with him for the first time when they met. Could it be that this person just came out of kindergarten?

"Yes, yes! I also have a gift for you!" Xie Huang opened the door and let Bai Chunsheng and Shang Qiulu in.

Shang Qiulu didn't really want to go in, he thought that this crab demon probably had a bad brain, and besides eggs, he had never seen this crab to buy anything else to eat, it was just a strange crab!

However, looking at the unconscious Bai Chunsheng next to him, Shang Qiulu paused, and then stepped into Xie Huang's room. Although the crab demon looked stupid, he was very strong and fought fiercely. Even Bai Chunsheng's small arms and legs are not enough for a crab monster.

Fortunately, Xie Huang came out soon, holding a huge dried fish in his hand, half the size of him.

Shang Qiulu: →_→

Bai Chunsheng: ←_←

"This is the dried fish I dried myself, and I give it to you!"

"This... this is too precious!" Bai Chunsheng forced a smile.

Shang Qiulu chuckled.

Bai Chunsheng touched him with his elbow, signaling him to restrain himself.

"No, it's not expensive, this fish suddenly turned its belly up on the river surface for some reason, and I killed it with a fork, it wasn't bought, it's not expensive!" Xie Huang stammered and explained. .

Bai Chunsheng: "..." Then I dare not take it anymore, who knows whether this fish died naturally or was poisoned?

"Well, can you give me a little when you're done? Just a little. I've always wanted to taste how such a big fish tastes cooked, but I don't know how to do it..." Xie Huang carried the huge fish shyly. Dried fish.

"You can ask Aunt Zhou to help." Bai Chunsheng looked at him strangely.

"No!" Xie Huang vetoed the proposal in one gulp, looked left and right, and approached cautiously and said in a low voice

"I dare not go to Aunt Zhou's house, they are all terrible people!"

"Ah?" Bai Chunsheng was stunned for a moment.

"Their family... eats crabs!" Xie Huang explained in a low voice with horror on his face, as if worried that Bai Chunsheng and the others would not believe it, and hurriedly added, "I saw it with my own eyes! Aunt Zhou's son took a full When the crabs came back from the basket, they threw them into the water and boiled them, and the whole family sat in the yard peeling and eating them for most of the night! The table was covered with crab carcasses!"

Bai Chunsheng thought for a while and thought about the picture of the family sitting around and biting the legs of the crab, and immediately understood the entanglement and fear of the crab demon.

"Okay, so, after I set up my pot and stove, let it dry for a few days, and when I start the fire, I will invite the big guys in our yard to have a meal together, and it will be a celebration of housewarming."

"That's right! It's very difficult for us water monsters to go ashore from the water. Many seniors are not used to living on the shore, and after living on the shore for a few years, they go back." Xie Huang was a little disappointed. These years, people of the same kind in the water often come ashore. , but most of the water monsters are not used to the outside world, and they went back soon. The whole town lived here, except for the dock boss Hei Yujing, he was the only one. That's why he could find Because of work, Boss Hei still has a good impression of him, a water monster who insists on living on the shore.

"Then it's a deal!" Bai Chunsheng thought that there were still many things in the house that hadn't been packed, so he chatted with the two of them for a while, then left and went home.

The things bought from the carpenter’s shop have been delivered, a wooden bed about 1.8 meters long and one meter wide. There are four pillars on the four sides of the bed, and a square hanging beam on the pillars. I heard from the boss that this is used to hang curtains of.Bai Chunsheng was speechless at the thought that he, an old man, had to hang curtains when he slept at night.

However, thinking that there may be mosquitoes in summer, there is no toilet water and antipruritic lotion for being bitten by mosquitoes in this time and space. Think about it, let’s keep this wooden shelf, and hang up a simple and elegant mosquito net to block mosquitoes. .

In addition to the bed, he also bought a cupboard with three layers. The lower layer can store some miscellaneous grains, kitchen utensils that are not usually used, and the middle two grids are for bowls, chopsticks, and spoons. The grid can be used to put vegetables.

The discarded wooden bed was used as a shelf, on which were piled up the messy daily necessities he bought, and there was a pail next to it. Seeing the not-so-wide edge of the pail, Bai Chunsheng suddenly felt a little pain in his butt.

This further strengthened his determination to buy a house!

With his own house, he can modify it however he likes. Anyway, he must create a separate bathroom, or even a pit that can be flushed!Otherwise, there is a Gong barrel in the room, and it feels like there is an indescribable smell in the air of the whole room...

The room is only so big, Bai Chunsheng wanted to separate a bedroom by himself, so he went to the cloth store and pulled the cheapest dark linen, and asked the store to make double-layered ones, and asked a carpenter's store for two strong wooden strips , nailed to the wall, and once the cloth curtain is hung, nothing can be seen outside. Although it is simple, it can only be like this for the time being.

Taking out the quilt and making the bed, Bai Chunsheng took a look at the newly bought bathtub, picked up the wooden bucket and hemp rope, ran to the next door and knocked on Shang Qiulu's door.

"Qiu Lu, can you teach me how to fetch water?" The water in the river is a bit dirty, if conditions permit, Bai Chunsheng still hopes to boil some hot water to take a bath at home.

"Wait." Shang Qiulu closed the door and didn't let him in. After opening the door after a while, he changed into a half-worn work clothes, took the hemp rope, walked to the front silently, walked Don't forget to close the door.

Bai Chunsheng suppressed a smile and followed him.

If it is in modern times, someone like Shang Qiulu is probably a senior otaku. For otaku, their own nest is an absolute territory. Any stranger entering will cause them discomfort. Putting on home clothes is what makes them feel most at ease.Such obsessive-compulsive disorder is inevitable for every house shrink!Bai Chunsheng used to know a hardcore homeboy who even had to wear home clothes of different materials in different weathers. That guy refused to get married because he would have to share a wardrobe with others, and that unknown person was very likely messed up his closet...

"What are you laughing at?" Shang Qiulu turned around and looked at Bai Chunsheng strangely when he found a suppressed smile coming from behind him.

"Ah? Haha~ I'm laughing at our shadow, look at the ground, we walk one after another like this, does the shadow look like a very tall giant?" Bai Chunsheng pointed to the shadow on the ground and explained.

Thinking of this stalk was also inspired by that dead house friend, whose EQ fell below the average, once his mother asked him out for a blind date, and he was fine during dinner, but when he went out, the two Huo suddenly pointed at the girl's shadow on the ground and laughed, panting while laughing and explaining: "Hahaha~ You, look! Your shadow... looks like a dog! A single dog hahaha~"

That girl was wearing a hat of a cartoon puppy that day, and when the street lamp illuminated it, the shadow on the ground looked like a dog?

Naturally, the blind date is gone.

Hearing Bai Chunsheng's boring explanation, the corners of Shang Qiulu's mouth twitched twice, and he decided to relax his observation of this clam monster. How could such a boring monster cause any harm to its master?

"Look, in this way, first put the bucket down, and be careful not to put it all the way on the water surface. The bottom of the wooden bucket is about three buckets high from the water surface. Then, quickly loosen the hemp rope, let the bucket fall, and hear the bottom of the wooden bucket. The sound of hitting the water surface, just turn your wrist like this, the wooden barrel will naturally tilt down, and you can hit the water, try it."

Bai Chunsheng put away his smile, walked over and tried twice according to Shang Qiulu's method, and he succeeded in getting half a bucket of water.

"It's done!" Bai Chunsheng happily looked at the clear well water reflecting the moonlight.

"Let me help you fill up the water tank. If you drink it by yourself, it's best to put it in the water tank in advance, let the dirty things sink, and the water on it can be drunk." Shang Qiulu quickly put down another wooden bottle. Bucket, half a bucket of water came up.

The two cooperated and quickly filled the water tank at home.

"Thank you!" Bai Chunsheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Shang Qiulu gratefully.

Shang Qiulu is actually not very old, he looks about 15 years old at most, but he is much more capable than him, and there is almost nothing he doesn't understand. Bai Chunsheng doesn't know why he has no family and why he lives here alone. This is Shang Qiulu's Privacy, if Shang Qiulu didn't tell him, he wouldn't take the initiative to inquire about it. However, this did not hinder his affection for Shang Qiulu. At this age, he is so capable and willing to help others, which is comparable to his 15-year-old Time to be more sensible.

"It's okay, the buns are delicious." Shang Qiulu paused and replied dryly.

After he finished speaking, he regretted it. It was as if he wanted to ask Bai Chunsheng for vegetable and meat buns.

really!

Hearing what Shang Qiulu said, Bai Chunsheng immediately said happily——

"Then I'll heat up a few more steamed buns and send them to you tomorrow morning!"

Shang Qiulu: "..."
