Son

Lin Qing and Shen Xu squatted side by side by a paddy field beside the road, staring at the crooked and wilted rice seedlings in the paddy field, and sighed together.

Lin Qing finally admitted that he was no longer suitable for farming. The seedlings that Aunt Wang had cultivated well would have died in him. Lin Qing looked back at the large lush fields in the distance, feeling more and more depressed.

"Forget it," Linqing fiddled with the nearest seedling listlessly, "It seems that farming is not easy to learn, it's better to go back and grow vegetables honestly."

Shen Xu comforted him and said, "It will take a few times."

Lin Qing nodded, but still couldn't help sighing softly.

He turned his head to look at Shen Xu, with a little strangeness in his eyes, Shen Xu asked puzzledly, "What do you mean by looking at me like this?"

The face in front of him looked like that idiot again, but recently this idiot's behavior seemed to be a different person. Lin Qing didn't know how to describe Shen Xu's change. To be—a lot more serious.

For example, he didn't complain about being tired from teaching, and he didn't lie on the bed every day and refused to move and could only eat. Today was a rare day off, and Shen Xu didn't sleep until the sun was up like before, but offered to accompany Lin Qing over here Look at the seedlings.

Lin Qing frowned and thought hard, always felt that this idiot might have hit his head, as if he had become sensible overnight, and said in disbelief: "You... have changed a lot."

Linqing couldn't find words to describe this change, but Shen Xu understood, smiled, and said, "Then I should go back and rest?"

Linqing hurriedly pulled him back, "How dare you? Who said you'd help me pull weeds?"

Shen Xu pointed at the field and jokingly said, "Pull the weeds or the seedlings? I think the grass looks like its master in this field."

Lin Qing was annoyed: "You care so much, just pull yours out."

Shen Xu smiled, rolled up his trousers and sleeves, went down to the field with Linqing, pulled up the dead rice seedlings and lush weeds and threw them on the ridge.

Linqing still couldn't help looking at Shen Xu with weird eyes. This person who is used to being a young master even cooks and does laundry by himself in the village. How could he bend over and go to work with him in the fields at this moment?

Linqing suspected that he was dreaming.

Knowing that he was looking at her, Shen Xu buried her head in pulling the seedlings, and said leisurely, "But do something, is it worth your surprise? It seems how lazy I used to be."

"You're lazy! You're so lazy!" Lin Qing rolled his eyes at him.

Shen Xu: "..."

"Okay, I know I'm a bit lazy—" After receiving Lin Qing's questioning eyes, Shen Xu had no choice but to change her words: "Okay, I'm lazy...but I've started to change, look, I'm not here right now work with you."

Lin Qing pouted, "That's right, but why did you suddenly..." He looked at Shen Xu, not knowing what to say.

Shen Xu smiled and said, "So what? If you lose your way, you will return, and if you know your mistakes, you can correct them?"

As soon as Shen Xu teased him, Lin Qing began to blush. He had never read anything, and he had never been able to speak well of Shen Xu, so he said angrily, "You don't talk well, I won't talk to you!"

Lin Qing turned around, turned her back to him, and kept her head buried in the weeds.

Shen Xu shook his head with a smile at his back, and said softly: "I just want to understand, destiny is like this, I can't control it, so it's better to be at peace with the situation, always treat yourself as Young Master Shen, and you will only sink into the past and be unhappy. You are like this I have worked hard to manage the housework, if I still can't see it, I really don't read the books of sages."

Linqing paused slightly for pulling the weeds, and couldn't tell what feeling he felt in his heart.

From a chubby dandy to a commoner with nothing in one night, Linqing didn't know the depression in Shen Xu's heart. This person always had a thought of the prosperity of the past in his heart, unwilling to accept the present, and felt that this catastrophe It was just a dream, and when he woke up, he was the young master of Shen's mansion who rode his horse and was full of red sleeves.

Sometimes Linqing sympathized with his situation, and felt that it was his wish to be silently with him, and sometimes felt that this idiot was always so stuck in the past, and refused to live on a down-to-earth basis, which was very annoying, and felt wronged for his hard work.

Now that Shen Xu has finally untied her heart knot, she no longer idles around, but cheers up to plan for her family. Lin Qing is happy, but at the same time feels a little lost.

Shen Xu can see that he doesn't seem to be of any help. He wants to be a finger-twister, but he is young and childish, lacks calmness and tolerance, and loses his temper with Shen Xu every now and then. It's Shen Xu who comforts him. , I answered Shen Xu's distress, but I couldn't squeeze out half a word of comfort.

However, Lin Qing was still happy that this idiot could let go of his grudge. Looking at the muddy water in the field, he said softly, "It would be great if you could think like this."

"Oh, that's how I am. You are still young, so I have to plan for you." Shen Xu said, "I have thought about it for the past few days, and you used to keep your fingers clean. You can't be troubled by me. Just be a farmer in this countryside for the rest of your life. You like playing the piano, and when I have saved enough money, I will buy a property in the town and let you open a shop to recruit apprentices. How about being a luthier?"

Lin Qing was dumbfounded, and turned around to look at Shen Xu blankly, never expecting that this idiot would think of himself in this way.

It felt like after suffering for a long time, someone suddenly stuffed him with a piece of candy, Lin Qing was so moved that his nose became sore.

"Okay... At that time, you, you can write the lyrics for me, we will still live together..." Lin Qing said with a blushing face.

Shen Xu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "You forgot my identity? I can't live in the town."

Lin Qing was also stunned for a moment, almost forgetting that Shen Xu is a "three non-entrants". People can't even enter the city gates, but they can go to towns, but they are not allowed to settle down. The only places where they can live are rural villages .

He didn't want to be separated from Shen Xu.

Lin Qing lowered his eyes and whispered, "What's the point of being alone?"

Shen Xu smiled and said: "Fool, you can't be a fake couple with me for the rest of your life. When you meet your sweetheart in the future, how can you be alone?"

Linqing was very annoyed, this idiot has opened up, why is Duduqing not open?It's really maddening.

However, Shen Xu was still saying: "I have to save some money for you to marry a daughter-in-law, twenty and crown, it will be soon."

Lin Qing said angrily, "Who wants to marry a daughter-in-law!"

Shen Xu gave him a strange look, and suddenly realized: "Forget it, that's the dowry—" He didn't know whether it was called a dowry or a dowry between men. Save it in case you don’t have it when you need it.”

Lin Qing was still moved by his consideration for himself at one moment, and was so angry that his lungs would explode at the next moment, he threw the weeds in his hands towards him with all his strength, and said through gritted teeth, "You can pull it out yourself! I won't pull it out!"

After finishing speaking, he rushed to the edge of the field angrily, sat down on the ridge of the field, and sulked himself.

Shen Xu saw him pouting and glaring, his little face flushed, and thought he was shy, so he smiled and didn't blame him, and continued to clear the field by himself.

Lin Qing became angry after a while, and then she became less angry, and peeked at Shen Xu sideways.

That idiot was actually obedient, and was serious about pulling grass and seedlings there.Linqing looked at it for a while, and suddenly felt it was funny again, why am I always angry with him?Knowing that this idiot is a lump of elm, but still wanting to be serious with him, Lin Qing felt distressed and ashamed for his quick-tempered temper.

It's because he lived with those concubines for a long time, which made him look like a woman.He wanted to change it too, but he couldn't.

Thinking of this, she suddenly heard Shen Xu's "Huh".

"What's wrong?" Lin Qing asked.

Shen Xu pointed into the water and said in surprise, "There are fish in here."

Linqing stood up, "No way, where?"

"Just at my feet, now I don't know where to swim."

Linqing got into the water, and Shen Xu searched for it in the acre-sized field, but no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find it anymore.

"Look at the flowers, maybe they are frogs and insects, how can there be fish in such shallow water?" Lin Qing said.

Shen Xu murmured, "Maybe."

The one-acre land turned back to its original bare appearance. Linqing looked at it for a while, then sighed, "It's a waste of a year's rent. What should I do with a piece of empty land?"

Shen Xu couldn't think of a good idea for a while, "Go back and think about it, go back and wash your feet first, and be careful not to catch a cold."

The two stepped on straw sandals and carried their clothes to go home.All the villagers who met working along the way looked at Shen Xu in amazement. They had never seen the master go to the fields.

Lin Qing said: "Master is covered in mud, let's see how you manage the students later."

Shen Xu said: "What's the matter? This is called doing everything by yourself, and there is no separation between scholars and peasants."

Seeing his serious face, Lin Qing couldn't help laughing.

Shen Xu couldn't hold back and laughed, and stretched out her hand to draw a mud mark on Lin Qing's face, "This is called laboring and smudged hands." She ran away with a smirk.

Linqing yelled and chased after him, and the laughter of the two of them spread far and wide on the way home.

All the way to the house, Shen Xu asked Lin Qing to draw two mud marks on her face, and Lin Qing gave up.They boiled water and washed the mud, one went to see the vegetables in the backyard, and the other went to the kitchen to make lunch.

Vegetables are better than rice seedlings, and they have grown longer, but they are sparse. I don't know how many waves Linqing planted to get these dozen seedlings.The family still has ten taels of silver, some broken silver, and small copper coins, but Shuxiu has some, but most of the villagers use vegetables, fruits, and dried meat as payment, and only one or two hand in cash, which is only ten yuan.With this income, there is no need to worry about food for food, but if you want to save money, you may not be able to save enough to buy the piano hall until you die.

What's more, his teaching job was accepted by Cui Ke. Shen Xu was always grateful in his heart, and would bring some things to visit every once in a while, worrying that Cui Ke was short of food and clothing, which was equivalent to going to another part of the family.

Life is not tight, but it is not affluent either. Shen Xu figured it out, but she is not a person who is content with the status quo. Not to mention that she wants to live as rich as before, at least she does not want to spend her whole life only thinking about money. thing.

Standing in the yard, he thought over and over again the possible ways to make a fortune. He regretted that he did not listen to his uncles. The article is so proud that it floats to the sky, and now I know that it is a scholar who is useless.

Linqing cooked a meal for him to eat, Shen Xu held the bowl and was still thinking about the way out, after eating, he was still thinking about it, his hair was dizzy and he still didn't come up with the result.

"No, I have to lie down for a while." Shen Xu supported his forehead and said.

Linqing was also a little tired, so the two undressed and lay down on the bed.

When Linqing was about to fall asleep, he saw that Shen Xu was still thinking about something with his eyes open, and murmured, "Aren't you sleepy, why aren't you asleep?"

"Go to sleep, I won't be able to fall back asleep once I lie down."

Linqing fell asleep, turned over, muttered a few words, and fell asleep.

Shen Xu's mind was still preoccupied with earning money, and he couldn't fall asleep after thinking about it. When he lowered his head, he saw Lin Qing nestled beside him, and was stunned for a moment.

This was the first time he saw Lin Qing falling asleep next to him. This young man was very worried. He went to bed later and woke up earlier than himself every day. It was hard work and distressing.

He is still so young, Shen Xu looked at his plain face and couldn't help thinking, he was born so delicate, his porcelain-like skin was exquisite and clear, his eyelashes fluttered like a small fan with his breath, it was just when he was young, that kind of unexperienced Shen Xu was infatuated by the natural beauty of the carving.

Such a fragrant and soft little person is at the age of indisputable male and female. Shen Xu is not a person with no desires. He is soft, fragrant and gentle by his side. He hasn't had a good time for several months. He can't help it now Thinking wildly, what is it like between men.

What will his cousin Shen Danchi and the housekeeper Huaiche want, how happy——

Shen Xu felt a little parched, and couldn't help but reach for Lin Qing's face.

Linqing smacked his mouth and rubbed his pillow.

Shen Xu was startled, as if waking up from a dream, she hastily withdrew her hand.

What am I doing? Is it true that I have been holding back for a long time, and I have dirty thoughts about a half-grown child?

Shen Xu didn't dare to lie down anymore, so she got up and fled.
