I feed my beasts by farming

Holding the little fox in his arms, Xie Guanlan pulled the latch with a smile on his face.After seeing clearly that standing outside the door was the old village head with his hands in his hands and a gloomy face, he hurriedly opened the courtyard door and supported the old village head's arm all the way into the main room.

"Grandpa, you are so cold, you can just say hello if you have something to do, why did you come here by yourself? Why didn't Shuan Bao follow? The road is muddy now, what if you fall?"

After Xie Guanlan helped the old village chief to sit down, he walked to the firepit and added some firewood to make the fire more intense while chattering.

At this time, it was almost dark, and even though the flames in the firepit shone in the house, it still looked gray.Xie Guanlan stood by the table and looked at the oil lamp on the table, hesitating for a moment, then took the fire folder and lit the oil lamp.

The old village chief has been observing Xie Guanlan's actions, feeling sad and guilty.

Before he died, the third boy's father had asked him to take care of the third boy, and he had sworn at that time to let his father rest assured.But when it came time, instead of fulfilling his promise with the third boy's father, he had suffered so much grievance...

Thinking of this, the old village chief couldn't help but his eyes turned red, and he waved to Xie Guanlan to signal him to come forward and speak.

Reflecting the orange light, Xie Guanlan saw the tears in the eyes of the old village head.The former Xie Guanlan was able to be abused by the Xie boss's family so far, which is directly related to the old village chief's open eyes and closed eyes.As long as the old village chief can intervene in the middle, the original body will not die.There are also recent incidents. The old village head said that he was fair, but he didn't let himself make concessions.

After all, I still don't want to disturb the whole village because of a child without father and mother.Xie Guanlan could see it clearly, so when he saw the old village chief's appearance at this time, he didn't feel a wave of emotion in his heart, but only felt it was ridiculous.

"Third boy, you said that day that you already knew who the person who set the fire was, why didn't you tell me?"

Hearing the old village chief's question, Xie Guanlan raised his eyelids and looked at the old village chief's expression.He opened his mouth, then sighed again and lowered his head.

Seeing Xie Guanlan's hesitant to speak, the old village head felt even more uncomfortable.He swallowed his saliva and said softly, "What? What can't you say to Grandpa?"

"Didn't Grandpa already know who it is? Why do you want me to say it?"

Hearing this, the old village chief's face froze.With a somewhat resentful expression, he looked away and sighed heavily.

Although he didn't mention the burning of the house in the village these days, he never let it go. Noticing that the Lu family boy kept running to the third boy's house, he became suspicious.Seeing that the third boy had always had a bad face towards Lu Xingwang, he confirmed that idea in his heart.

It's just that the Lu family boy has always been timid and cowardly. The old village chief really can't figure out why he would do this?

"Grandpa, is he thinking that Lu Xingwang is a coward, why did he dare to set fire to my house?"

Hearing Xie Guanlan's words, the old village chief nodded and sighed: "Yeah, I just can't figure this out, so I haven't been able to make a decision."

"Because of what Grandpa said."

Xie Guanlan's words made the old village head stunned for a moment, and before he could ask why, Xie Guanlan continued: "On the day when it snowed heavily, Xing'er and Shuanzi bullied me by the well, but they were scratched by wild cats. When, did you say anything?"

Not long after the incident, the old village chief naturally did not forget it.When he recalled it carefully, he understood everything.The crutch in his hand slammed the ground hard, and with a sullen face he cursed angrily, "Baby bastard" and then stopped talking.

"Grandpa, our Xie family is considered a big family in Dayan Village. You can be elected village chief not only because we have a large number of Xie family members, but also because you are the most fair and just person in life. If Xie Mingfeng and Xie Xinger are allowed to bully others, After a long time, can you guarantee that other miscellaneous surnames will not have any objections?"

The old village head was not a fool for being the head of Dayan Village for so many years.Although Xie Guanlan's words were not clearly stated, he could already hear the meaning behind the words clearly.

After pondering for a moment, the old village chief stood up.Seeing this, Xie Guanlan didn't hold back, and walked out while holding his arm.

When the two of them were silent and just walked down the slope and came out of the haystack, they only heard a deliberately low threat and the sound of fists and feet.The old village head recognized that one of them was Xie Mingfeng, and stood there with a gloomy face and deliberately coughed.Immediately, Xie Mingfeng, Daniu, and two other half-children from the same village came out from behind the haystack with earthy faces.

When the old village chief saw the leader Xie Mingfeng, his face was so gloomy that water dripped out.Then he took a deep breath, broke away from Xie Guanlan's supporting hand, and said to him: "Third boy, go and see who is behind."

Xie Guanlan responded, and walked behind the haystack under Xie Mingfeng's cold eyes.Although it was pitch black behind the haystack, Xie Guanlan could still tell that the person who fell on the ground was Lu Xingwang.

"Can you still stand up?" Xie Guanlan looked down at Lu Xingwang who was curled up on the ground, and asked in a cold voice.

Seeing that the other party responded in a low voice, Xie Guanlan said, "The old village chief is outside." After speaking, he left without looking back.

After Xie Guanlan supported the old village head and sent him home, he glanced at Xie Mingfeng and others who were following them dejectedly, and walked out of the old village head's house without looking back.When he walked out of the courtyard, the old village head's roar came from behind him, which made him curl his lips, and then walked to his home humming a little tune.

Xie Guanlan has no interest in how the old village head will deal with Xie Mingfeng and others in the future.However, Xie Guanlan raised his eyebrows and accepted all the copper coins sent by Lu Xingwang with Lu Xingwang.

After all, he is the victim, and his family is not rich, so it is a fool not to be compensated.

For Lu Yaonian and Lu Xingwang's apology, Xie Guanlan waved his hand and let it go.

However, even so, since then Lu Xingwang would run to Xie Guanlan's place whenever he was free, either helping fetch water or tidying up the yard.Xie Guanlan couldn't catch up or stay, which can be said to be a headache.

On the contrary, Boss Xie and Tie Zhu's family were scolded by the old village head because of Lu Xingwang's affairs. After the two bear children went home and were beaten, they couldn't help but behave like adults with their tails between their legs. Seeing that, Xie Guanlan was very relieved , Even looking at his own burnt stove house, the anger in his heart has eased a lot.

Therefore, when facing Lu Xingwang, when Xie Guanlan was facing him, he felt a lot better in his heart.

"Thank you third brother."

Lu Xingwang yelled timidly, seeing Xie Guanlan's face was sullen and silent, he grinned again to make up his smile.

Seeing Lu Xingwang like this, Xie Guanlan couldn't help but sigh inwardly. "It's so late, why are you here again?"

Hearing this, Lu Xingwang smiled at Xie Guanlan again, "Tomorrow morning, my neighbor Aunt Zhang and I are going to the town, and I want to ask Brother Xie if there is anything to bring?"

Perhaps in order to repay Xie Guanlan for his help, Lu Xingwang took special care of Xie Guanlan.No matter Xie Guanlan's attitude towards him, the other party always greeted him with a smile, which made Xie Guanlan have the illusion that his fist hit the flower bag.

"No, I'm the only one at home, and everything that needs to be bought has been done."

Hearing what Xie Guanlan said, Lu Xingwang was not disappointed.After chatting with Xie Guanlan a few more times, he planned to go back.Just when he turned around, Lu Xingwang seemed to think of something again, and Xie Guanlan, who was about to send him out, almost bumped his head into Lu Xingwang's back.

"Oh, by the way, my father helped the people in the village write pairs, and I left some for you. Third brother, remember not to prepare these."

Lu Xingwang's words reminded Xie Guanlan that he hadn't prepared the door pairs for the Chinese New Year yet.Dayan Village is not like a festival in modern times. As long as no one in the family has passed away, it is usually pasted with a pair of red couplets. It is not as dazzling as the various door paintings in modern times.

It's just that the flavor of the year was incomparable in that era.

Thinking of this, Xie Guanlan couldn't help feeling a little sad.He nodded to Lu Xingwang and sent him out the door.

……

Because I have cut off contact with Uncle Xie's family, and I no longer have the false politeness of previous years.Xie Guanlan closed the door and took his own little fox to make white noodle dumplings, and spent a New Year's Eve happily.

One person and one fox sat around the firepit, eating melon seeds and peanuts, listening to the sound of firecrackers outside, I was very satisfied.

The melon seeds and peanuts were bought by Lu Xingwang from the market and forced to be given to him. Knowing that Lu Xingwang's family was not good, Xie Guanlan was unwilling to take advantage of him, so he took ten cents and stuffed them into his hands.Lu Xingwang looked at the ten cents in his hand, his eyes turned red for a while, and he refused to accept it.

Xie Guanlan was annoyed enough by Lu Xingwang during this time, and he also knew that he really wanted to make up for his loss.But when the matter developed to this point, Xie Guanlan had no intention of pursuing it any further.I only hope that this kid will quickly disappear from my eyes...

"Alan, I can't peel this peanut, please help me quickly."

Xie Guanlan, who was in a daze, heard Ruosheng's cry for help, and hurriedly turned to look at the little guy who was holding peanuts and scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously.She stretched out her hand and scratched his hairy head, grabbed the hair on his neck and lifted Ruosheng to her knee.

"It saves effort by biting your teeth. Why do you have to learn how to peel it by hand? You don't have a human shape, so you have to challenge the difficulty."

Xie Guanlan was talking, but the movements of his hands didn't stop.Peeling off the peanut that Ruosheng handed over, he twisted his thumb and index finger to rub out the peanut kernels, and stuffed them into the impatient Ruosheng's mouth.

"It's all broken in my mouth. It's not satisfying to eat at all." Chewing peanuts in his mouth, Ruosheng spoke inarticulately.Seeing that the peanut skin that Xie Guanlan peeled off for him stuck to his body, the little fox hurriedly waved his little paw to help Xie Guanlan pull it off.

Xie Guanlan looked at the little fox's behavior and couldn't help but smiled, then stuffed another peanut into his mouth, and couldn't help asking: "You can talk now, can you still change form? You said before that you They are more than 2000 years old, but they still look like a ball of wool.”

Xie Guanlan's words made the little fox roll his eyes for a while, and said in a slightly contemptuous tone: "Two thousand years old is just a cub in our Chenghuang clan. I can speak now and I am already precocious! If you want to change form, you must at least get four thousand!" Years old. My father and mother are not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry, hum!"

Ruosheng squatted on Xie Guanlan's lap, waving his big fluffy tail unhappily, his bulging cheeks seemed to be stuffed with a quail egg, that cute appearance made Xie Guanlan couldn't help but reach out and rub it .

"Don't rub my face, the hair on the nose grows after a lot of effort, rub it again and it will be gone."

After finishing speaking, Ruosheng waved his tail and covered his nose with the tip of his tail.Perhaps the fluff on the tail accidentally scratched his nostrils, and he couldn't help sneezing because of the itching.

Seeing the cute and silly little fox, Xie Guanlan couldn't help laughing.He held the round head of the little fox and kissed it fiercely, causing Ruosheng to yell "Deng Tuzi", and then jumped to the side like flying.

After a while, Ruosheng, who couldn't bear the loneliness, lingered to Xie Guanlan's leg again, raised his head and asked Xie Guanlan with an unhappy face: "Do you think my father and mother can find me? If they keep What can I do if I can’t be found? I still have 2000 years before I can transform? At that time, I will only have you by my side.”

"...Don't you know that an ordinary human has a lifespan of less than a hundred years? After 2000 years, all my bones will be turned into dust, okay?!" Xie Guanlan's expression could hardly be stretched when he heard Ruosheng's words.

It was said that Ruosheng's eyes were about to stare into a circle, and he was stunned for a long time before he returned to the mat beside the firepit with desolate eyes.

Now the Chenghuang lineage is very rare. As the purest cub of the Chenghuang clan, Ruosheng's parents have taught him since he was a child not to step out of Chongwu Mountain unless necessary.If there is any accident, try to hide your identity as much as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble for yourself.

In the narration of Father and Mother, any species in the outside world has a greedy nature.If they knew that the Chenghuang clan could extend their lives, there would definitely be a bloodbath.Ruosheng can also feel the greed of this human being when he gets along with Xie Guanlan, but he doesn't know why after hearing that the other party may disappear after a hundred years, he feels very uncomfortable in his heart.

Ruosheng lazily turned his head to Xie Guanlan's side, looking at Xie Guanlan's thin profile, Ruosheng couldn't help asking, "Alan, if you were given a chance to extend your life, would you want it?"

Hearing Ruosheng's nonsensical question, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "It's good to live a few more years, but it's not good if it's too long. It's not easy to live for a hundred years, no matter how much you have to bear Can't stop."

"Why?" Ruosheng waited for the clear black and white eyes, and his tone was full of doubts.

Xie Guanlan smiled and lifted Ruosheng back, stretched out his hand to stroke the soft down on Ruosheng's body, and said with emotion: "If you live for a long time, you will be lonely..."
