Farm work is done a few days before the Duanyang Festival.

Ever since that day, Cheng Yanping ignored Zhao Hou's advice and went to the fields to play privately. He had a great time playing at that time, but he fell ill that night. Like before, he developed a high fever in the middle of the night and kept talking.

With the experience from the previous time, Zhao Hou was not so flustered, and when he went to invite He Changming, he was not as anxious as last time.

After He Changming's diagnosis and treatment, he told Zhao Hou: "This disease is a weak disease brought out of the mother's womb. If you want to be cured only by medicine stones, even Hua Tuo can't do it when he is alive. His body is weak. If you want to get sick less in the future, You still have to exercise more, your bones will be strong, and you will naturally be immune to all diseases."

Although Zhao Hou was angry, seeing Cheng Yanping who was ill, he couldn't bear to throw him to the mayor's house, and took care of him non-stop all night long.

Cheng Yanping has been taking medicine since he was able to drink rice soup since he was born, so naturally he doesn't feel any difference in this disease, but he always feels sorry for Zhao Hou, and since he woke up, Zhao Hou didn't even look at him.

An imposing seven-foot man, his mind is smaller than the nose of a needle.

The house next door has almost been repaired. Early in the morning, the mayor came with an ox cart. The ox cart was filled with all kinds of flowers, trees and fruit seedlings, all of which were bought according to Cheng Yanping's request.

Although the house was slightly repaired, it looked like a big change.

First of all, the kitchen has become a little smaller. Cheng Yanping thinks that he lives alone, so he really doesn't need such a big kitchen, and another...

I'm afraid that the dishes he cooks are not even eaten by dogs.

In the extra space separated from the kitchen, a small bathroom was added, and a bathtub was placed in it. He was weak, no better than Zhao Hou, and he couldn't take a cold bath, and it would be inconvenient without a bathtub.

And he is thin-skinned, no better than Zhao Hou who can take a shower every night standing in the yard.

The utility room on the other side was also moved to the backyard, which made the yard look much more spacious.

The mayor pointed to the bamboo on the bullock cart and said, "I specially asked someone to dig it out in the bamboo forest of Xiaocang Mountain. Look, there are still dewdrops on the leaves."

Cheng Yanping thanked him, and asked someone to plant a row of bamboo along the side of the courtyard wall, and the small courtyard immediately became more charming after the bamboo was planted. It is not unreasonable for the ancient saying "I would rather eat without meat than live without bamboo" of.

There is a lot of bamboo, and only a small part is planted in the front yard.

The rest are all planted in the backyard, using bamboo as a partition to separate the main house from the latrine. When the wind blows, the bamboo shadows are uneven and printed on the rear window, like silhouettes, quiet and beautiful.

In addition to the toilet in the backyard, there is a utility room that was moved over.

A banana plant was planted under the window facing the front room, the ground was covered with green turf, and stones were embedded in the middle of the turf. Stones of different sizes and shapes paved a winding path.

At the bottom of the wall on the other side, some vines were planted, which will probably cover the wall in the coming year.

A small clump of mosquito repellent and impatiens are planted around the latrine, which can not only prevent snakes and insects, but also beautify them.

Where there is sunshine, some chrysanthemums and roses are planted.

Two plum blossoms are planted in the corner of the wall.

One of them is a red plum. According to the mayor, it looks very red when it blooms, and the other is a wintersweet.

After the backyard is properly arranged.

The mayor clapped his hands and praised: "With such an arrangement by your hands, I wish I could squat in the toilet all day long."

The flowers and trees were just planted and hadn't taken shape yet. Cheng Yanping couldn't afford the praise of the mayor. After watering the flowers and trees, he dragged the mayor to the front yard.

A row of green bamboos were planted in the front yard against the courtyard wall on the side of the street.

Stones are used to build flower beds of different sizes under the courtyard walls on both sides. There are roses, jasmines, crabapples, and a green gardenia. It seems to be able to smell the fragrance.

There are cobblestone paths in the middle of the courtyard, from the courtyard gate to the main house, and there are several winding side roads.

Cheng Yanping kept the original persimmon tree in the yard, and planted a new pear tree and a peach tree. The fruit trees are not like the flower trees, and they will take several years to bloom and bear fruit.

As for the big vat that Cheng Yanping mentioned earlier, it was also delivered.

Cheng Yanping put it in the corner by the well, and after finishing his work, it was already noon, and Cheng Yanping wanted to invite everyone to the Yingke Building for a light meal, but the mayor said: Afraid of the day when you won’t have dinner? It’s not too late to wait until the day you move into your new home.”

When the mayor said this, everyone dispersed.

Looking at the newly furnished small courtyard, Cheng Yanping was extremely satisfied, and went back to the next door with a happy face. As soon as he entered the door, he met Zhao Hou's gloomy face that almost dripped with water. The smile on his face Immediately withdrew most of it.

"Master, I'm back!"

Zhao Hou ignored him.

I didn't go home all morning, and I didn't know what to say to people next door, talking and laughing without being in shape.

"Master, what are you having for lunch?"

Cheng Yanping approached, touched his stomach and asked.

Zhao Hou said in a deep voice, "Didn't you want to invite someone to eat out? What do you want to eat when you come back?"

Cheng Yanping pretended not to hear his eccentric words, stepped forward to hold his hand, and smiled sweetly at him.

"Where is the food outside that the master cooks deliciously? I love the dishes made by the master the most. I will never get tired of eating them for the rest of my life. Even if there are dragon meat and phoenix marrow outside asking me to eat, I will not go. "

Qian Chuan Wan wears flattery but does not wear it. When he was at home, he made his parents angry, so he acted coquettishly and obediently.

Unsatisfactory after all attempts.

Zhao Hou snorted again, but his tone was not as rigid as before.

"Go and light the fire."

Cheng Yanping entered the kitchen excitedly, saw a piece of pork belly on the cutting board, and swallowed unconsciously.

Zhao Hou remained expressionless, cut the pork belly into pieces, then put it into a pot, added water, put in slices of onion and ginger, and poured cooking wine.

"Medium fire."

Taking advantage of the gap between the stew, Zhao Hou chopped the dried plums into fine pieces, and chopped some seasonings and put them aside.

Dried plums are soaked early in the morning.

After the meat in the pot was cooked, Zhao Hou took the meat out and put it into a basin, poured a little soy sauce to color the meat, poured rapeseed oil into the pot after all this was done, and poured the meat pieces into the pot After deep frying, remove the meat.

With the oil in the pot, put the seasoning into the pot and sauté until fragrant, then pour in dried plums, stir-fry on high heat and let Cheng Yanping stop the fire.

Cheng Yanping smelled the fragrance, poked his head out and asked, "Master, what did you do? Why is it so fragrant?"

"Sauced pork with pickled vegetables."

Zhao Hou cut the previous piece of meat into slices, put them in a basin, and then covered the top with dried plums in the pot.

The rice cooked in the big pot outside has been rolled once, Zhao Hou lifted the lid of the pot, poked a few in the rice with chopsticks, put the pot containing preserved vegetables and meat on the top of the rice, and covered the pot.

"Keep burning."

After speaking, he took out three salted duck eggs from the cupboard, put them into the pot inside, added water, and said, "Boil the two pots together."

The steaming heat came out from the gap in the lid of the pot, and even the aroma of pickled vegetables and pork wafted out together.

It was so easy to wait until the meal was ready.

Cheng Yanping rushed outside to wash his hands impatiently, and then hurried back, watching Zhao Hou lift the lid of the pot and bring out the preserved vegetables and meat, the pot was very hot, Zhao Hou He sighed twice, and pinched his earlobe with his hand.

Take out the boiled salted duck eggs and put them in cold water.

"Master, if you burn your hands, can you just pinch your ears and it won't hurt?"

Zhao Hou really couldn't answer this question, it seemed that everyone did this, and it gradually became a habit.He said in a deep voice, "Why do you care so much?"

Cheng Yanping felt resentful, and continued to stare at Mei Cai Kou Rou.

Zhao Hou took the plate, put the basin on the plate, and then flipped his hands, and the preserved vegetables and meat were completely piled on the plate.

When Cheng Yanping served the dishes to the main room, he watched Zhao Hou not see him, and took a small sip secretly first, it was really delicious.

Zhao Hou cut the salted duck eggs into four pieces, put them on a plate, asked Cheng Yanping to carry them to the main room, and he filled two bowls of rice.

while eating.

Holding the chopsticks, Cheng Yanping almost made a hole in the prunes under the pork belly.

"You don't like meat?"

Zhao Hou asked in surprise.

Cheng Yanping shook his head, "This is fat meat, I'm so tired of looking at it."

Zhao Hou took a big bite.

"It's not greasy at all, don't believe me, why don't you take a bite?" Then he brought the remaining half of the meat on the chopsticks to Cheng Yanping's mouth.

Cheng Yanping didn't want to eat, but couldn't stand Zhao Hou looking at him like this, so he closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, taking a small bite.

The meat is really fat but not greasy.

The pork belly with bright red sauce is not only not greasy, but also has the fragrance of dried plums and vegetables.

Cheng Yanping tasted it, and the result was that most of the meat went into his stomach, and Zhao Hou could only stare blankly.

But who makes people weak and sick?

Zhao Hou comforted himself like this.

There was not even a bit of soup left on the last plate of plum vegetables and braised pork. The plate was cleaner than a dog licked it.

Served with salted duck eggs, it would be even more delicious. Cheng Yanping, who ate this lunch, had a round belly. When washing the dishes, he barely squatted down with one hand supporting his lower back.

Zhao Hou laughed twice when he saw it.

"It's just a meal. Why do you look like a pregnant woman? If people who don't know see it, maybe they think you've been pregnant for several months?"

Cheng Yanping was really panicked, and when he heard the words, he turned around and gave him a hard look.

"If I'm pregnant, then you are the culprit..."

As soon as the voice fell, the surroundings became quiet, even the wind stopped.

Zhao Hou looked embarrassed, turned and went back to the room.

Isn't that right, if that's the case, even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he wouldn't be able to clean up, and then he would be a little bit grievous.

Zhao Hou fell into sleep amidst these repeated thoughts.

Cheng Yanping outside was brushing the bowl absent-mindedly, his hand slipped, and there was a crisp "clang".

Another bowl was played.

He felt a "thump" in his heart, thinking that he was about to be scolded again, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear any movement from the room, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He ate a lot at noon today. After finishing his work, he was not in a hurry to take a nap. Firstly, he was afraid of accumulating food, and secondly, it would be embarrassing to go in at this moment.

A round head got in through the crack of the door.

"Brother Immortal, come here, come here..."

Huahua stretched out her fleshy little hand and waved at Cheng Yanping.

Cheng Yanping walked over and opened the door. There was a draft blowing through the hall, making it cool.He looked behind Huahua, "Why are you alone, where is Grandma Sun?"

"Grandma fell asleep, I sneaked out."

Huahua seems to like him very much, and when they meet, she will hold his hand and never let go.

"Brother Immortal, I will take you to pick mulberry fruits and eat them. There is a big mulberry tree outside the town. The mulberry fruits are so sweet..."

When Cheng Yanping heard that there was something to eat, he immediately went home and took a basket.

"go!"
