Retired soldier king and his little sweetheart

Zhuang Xiaoduo sat upright, shaking his head repeatedly.

"too hot."

"Well, be careful of heatstroke." Tang Huai didn't ask any more questions, and scooped up a bowl of rice for Zhuang Xiaoduo, "Drink some sour soup to relieve the heat."

Sour soup is a special dish in Guizhou. Chating Village is located at the junction of Yunnan and Guizhou. Over the years, the flow of people from surrounding counties and cities has brought many Guizhou dishes to Chating Village.

The secret of the sour soup is the red sour seasoning, which needs to be marinated with small local tomatoes.

The rice was still hot, so Zhuang Xiaoduo served a bowl of sour soup first.

Tang Huai put bean sprouts, lotus white and beans to cook together, let it cool down, took a sip, it was cold and sour, refreshing on the tongue, Zhuang Xiaoduo immediately whetted his appetite.

"I haven't eaten vegetarian sour soup for a long time."

After the meal was full, Tang Huai cleared the table and asked Zhuang Xiaoduo if he had checked the rat holes in the rice fields.

"Checked, a total of five holes are all blocked tightly."

"Well, I'm going out for a few days, and you cook for yourself these few days."

Zhuang Xiaodu let out a groan, wondering if Tang Huai thought of himself as a fool who didn't work hard and didn't distinguish between grain and grain.

He smiled awkwardly: "Brother Tang, I can cook too, so I won't starve to death." Tang Huai looked Zhuang Xiaoduo up and down, and after a moment of silence: "Yes."

Zhuang Xiaoduo spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

During the conversation, the little yellow dog ran into the yard again, circled around Zhuang Xiaoduo, rubbed his head against his leg, Zhuang Xiaoduo stroked its head, smiled at Tang Huai and said, "It likes me. I have always had a relationship with small animals since I grew up."

Tang Huai was watering the loofah grapes in the yard, he turned his body slightly: "You are always likable."

Zhuang Xiaoduo really wanted to ask "Then do you like me?", but she just smiled embarrassedly.

"By the way, Brother Tang, when are you coming back? What about your greenhouse?"

"I don't know yet. I'll come back when I'm done. If I don't come back in two days, can you please help me sprinkle some water on the flower seedlings in the greenhouse. The sprayer is inside."

Tang Huai pointed to the simple tool shed in the corner of the yard.

"Okay." Zhuang Xiaoduo agreed.

half a month later.

Zhuang Xiaoduo was spraying water on the flower seedlings in the greenhouse, while humming melancholy: "May I miss you, I need to cheer up, the weather in July, August and September, like me and you need a rain..."

After Tang Huai left, there was no news, and the phone could not be reached. Zhuang Xiaoduo had to stop for a while every day when he passed by Tang Huai's yard.

My mood changed from "Brother Tang come back soon" to "Brother Tang didn't come back today", these two days were "Brother Tang will not just leave".

Roses are planted in the greenhouse, and the young branches have begun to sprout.

The sprayer on Zhuang Xiaoduo's back was empty, and when he was about to go out to add water, he saw Tang Huai just walking in from the entrance.

He was dressed a little differently today. In the past, his upper body was cooler than his lower body. Today he was wearing a long-sleeved T-shirt, and his lower body was shorts and flip-flops.

"So gay." Zhuang Xiaoduo thought to himself.

When Tang Huai saw Zhuang Xiaoduo's cute and dull expression, his anxious mood suddenly improved a lot.

"Xiao Duo!"

Zhuang Xiaoduo ran over, raised his head and said with a bright smile, "You're back."

When he got closer, he found that Tang Huai's left leg was tightly wrapped with gauze. He squatted down and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with your leg? Are you injured?"

"I took out the steel nails that were put in in the previous operation. Sorry, I just wanted to go for a review, but the doctor insisted on taking them out."

Tang Huai walked a few steps forward, and said relaxedly: "It has recovered a lot, and it will be good to take care of it."

"Have you ever broken your leg before? How did you hurt it!"

"It was broken two years ago." Tang Huai pulled Zhuang Xiaoduo up, and Zhuang Xiaoduo looked at Tang Huai directly, waiting for Tang Huai to answer the next question.

Tang Huai stopped talking, put his hands on Zhuang Xiaoduo's shoulders, and walked into the shed.

The rose seedlings are growing very well, it seems that Zhuang Xiaoduo took good care of them.

When the sun was shining in the afternoon, it was very hot in the shed. Zhuang Xiaoduo was worried that Tang Huai's wound would be stuffy and inflamed, so he quickly helped him out.

After Zhuang Xiaoduo quickly sprayed the remaining flower seedlings with water, he helped Tang Huai go home.

Zhuang Xiaoduo got under Tang Huai's left arm, put his right arm around Tang Huai's waist, and unconsciously limped along with Tang Huai.

Tang Huai: "... Xiaoduo, you don't need to help me, I can go."

"It's okay, Brother Tang, I will take good care of you."

"It's too hot, Xiaoduo." Tang Huai's wrist, which was held by Zhuang Xiaoduo, was already sweating.

Zhuang Xiaoduo let go gently, and scratched his head with his hind legs: "Oh, I'm sorry."

Tang Huai smiled lightly and said, "Let's go", then walked forward slowly.

Zhuang Xiaoduo looked at Tang Huai's back, he could indeed walk, and he was not half disabled as he imagined, just a little lame.

How can you walk so quickly after only half a month of surgery?Zhuang Xiaoduo quickly followed.

Tang Huai, who was originally omnipotent and physically strong, suddenly became lame. Zhuang Xiaoduo wanted to take good care of him, let him recover quickly, and show him his virtuous and considerate side.

As the saying goes, where you eat, you can make up for it. Zhuang Xiaoduo put down the sprayer and borrowed an electric car from the aunt across the door and went straight to the town to buy pork legs.

"Boss, I want a pork leg."

"Okay, the front leg or the back leg?"

Zhuang Xiaoduo crossed his arms and thought: Although pigs have four legs, the front legs should be equivalent to human hands, so it should be...

"Helps."

"Okay!" The boss raised his big knife.

Zhuang Xiaoduo: "I want my left leg, thank you boss."

The boss was speechless. He raised his eyes to look at Zhuang Xiaoduo, and saw that he was really serious and didn't mean to be joking.

In the end, he chopped off a left hind leg.

Tang Huai was forced to sit in the yard, looking straight at the window worriedly.

I saw Zhuang Xiaoduo holding a kitchen knife in both hands, and the bang bang kept chopping.

"Are you chopping pig's trotters?"

Zhuang Xiaoduo forced a smile through the glass: "Yes! It will be ready soon!"

Why doesn't the vegetable market cut into pieces?Why is this bone so hard?Does this pig take calcium tablets every day?

Zhuang Xiaoduo was in a rage, and the evil turned to gallbladder: "It doesn't matter if you take calcium tablets or milk tablets, I will chop you up and make soup for Brother Tang today!"

"Let me do it."

Tang Huai walked in, took the kitchen knife from Zhuang Xiaoduo, and smiled: "Go and wash the pea sprouts."

"I can, I..."

"I'll do it." Tang Huai was still smiling.

Zhuang Xiaoduo judged from the lack of curvature of Tang Huai's eyes that Tang Huai was probably not really smiling at the moment, maybe because he felt that he was useless but didn't want to hurt his self-esteem.

May I ask if you should insist on showing your masculinity at this time, or obediently show that you are very well-behaved.

"Go." Tang Huai let go of her smirk, her face expressionless.

Zhuang Xiaoduo: "Okay."

After dinner, Zhuang Xiaoduo was washing the dishes, and Tang Huai took the kettle to fetch water.

"What's the hot water for?"

"bath."

Zhuang Xiaoduo looked at his leg, Tang Huai had already removed the gauze, a wound about 4cm had healed, and the wound was a faint iodophor yellow.

"Go to my house to wash! My house has a water heater, just wrap it in plastic wrap."

Tang Huai thought for a while and agreed.

Zhuang Xiaoduo hasn't turned on the water heater for a long time, and the weather is hot recently, so he always flushes with cold water when he comes back from the field.

After putting Tang Huai on the sofa, he rushed into the bathroom to start heating.

Tang Huai couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth when he saw Zhuang Xiaoduo's farming plan posted on half the wall.

When Zhuang Xiaoduo came out, he saw Tang Huai standing in front of his farming plan.

Tang Huai pointed to the picture on July 7 and read: "In the morning, harvest the red ones in the pepper fields, and weed the corn fields by the way (expected 15 hours).

"Spray water on Brother Tang's roses in the afternoon (expected 1 hour).

"I miss Brother Tang (expected 3 hours)."

Zhuang Xiaoduo blushed to the base of his neck, and stammered, "That... I mean, I want you to come back to work soon."

Tang Huai: "Yes, I know."

you know?You know shit!Zhuang Xiaoduo's heart was turbulent.

"Then you can watch TV and have some hot water for a while."

Zhuang Xiaoduo put a pillow for Tang Huai on the coffee table, brought plastic wrap, sat opposite him and turned on the computer to check his Douyin account.

After that day, through Zhuang Xiaoduo's painstaking efforts, within half a month, he gained 126 followers, with the highest number of likes being 50+.

Zhuang Xiaoduo looked at the video of Tang Huai with hundreds of thousands of views, and then looked at the rural scenery carefully shot and edited by himself with his camera, and the click was bleak.

"What's the matter?" Tang Huai couldn't help asking seeing that Zhuang Xiaoduo looked at the computer with more expressions than face changes.

"It's okay, me, I'm editing a video to record the beautiful rural life."

Zhuang Xiaoduo pointed to the camera next to the TV.

Tang Huai unhurriedly wrapped his calves with plastic wrap layer by layer. He rarely used social software, but he still knew that sharing his life on social platforms is very popular now.

"Is there any filming today?"

Zhuang Xiaoduo shook his head.

Say, "Can I shoot you?"

Tang Huai said yes, and added: "But it's best not to take direct photos. My previous job was quite special."

Zhuang Xiaoduo expressed his understanding.

When Tang Huai went to take a shower, Zhuang Xiaoduo raised his phone and recorded his back.

He knows that netizens like to watch this, just like he eats sugar while watching TV dramas, and there are not a few people on the platform who earn popularity by selling rot.

After hesitating again and again, Zhuang Xiaoduo still didn't post the picture of Tang Huai's back walking into the bathroom.

If, if Tang Huai was indeed a straight man, he would definitely be disgusted.

When he was secretly sad, Tang Huai's voice came from the bathroom.

"Xiao Duo, can you help me take a bath?"
