hunting and farming husband

Chapter 52 Ahem, I'm Hungry

Seeing the two elder brothers leaving, Cheng Shao said to Cheng Bao'er, "Bao'er, let's go too."

Cheng Baoer waddled and grabbed Cheng Shao's hand, and ran out.

Ye Liandong poured pig manure into the vegetable field.Put the shovel, pestle the side of the pigsty like a stick, and watch the little black pig grin silly.

After his stomach growled twice, he held his stomach and cooked happily.

If there are more people in the family, half a bowl of steamed rice will be added.Ye Liandong stood in front of the cabinet, thought for a while, and poured down half of the scooped brown rice.

Since it is a guest, put less brown rice.

Pour the rice into the basin, mix it with water, Ye Liandong suddenly heard exclamation outside the yard.

come back so soon?

Ye Liandong poured the rice washing water into the bucket.Dry your hands and sit in front of the stove, handing firewood while looking out the door.

"Sister-in-law! There are so many fish!" Cheng Baoer's voice sounded like a magpie from afar.

fish?

Ye Liandong rang out the baskets that had been placed this morning. "Caught it so soon?"

He turned sideways and pulled out the big black steak from the stove next to it, and said while holding the ashes, "I caught the fish for you."

"Meow." The voice was quick and crisp.

Honeysuckle tapped its wet nose. "It's still a kitten."

Cheng Langyu carried the basket into the yard, and water flowed all the way behind it.Ye Liandong was puzzled, didn't he go hunting pigweed?

Immediately afterwards, two baskets of hogweed came in through the courtyard gate.One in front and one in back, sandwiching Cheng Limin in the middle.

Ye Liandong closed her lips up and down, silently turning her eyes away.

Hogweed should be light...

After the firewood in his hand was burned, Dahei, who was nestled on his lap, stepped on and turned in circles.

Ye Liandong let go of her hand to look at it, observing its every move.

But Dahei suddenly stopped, sat upright elegantly, and stared at the door blankly.

"Aren't you going?" Ye Liandong raised a cat's paw and tapped the door.

Dahei's head was shaking, as if he knew the food was coming, he stepped on Ye Lonicera's legs and barked softly.

The sound is short, a bit like hurting the throat.

Ye Liandong's legs were itchy from the cat's paws, so he simply held both paws with one hand: "If you can't go down, don't worry."

Dahei let out a soft "ah", and stayed still obediently.

Ye Rendong held the cat-faced plate and said strangely: "I still understand it!"

"Hey, let's ask them to bring it in."

Cheng Shao and Cheng Baoer went around the basket as soon as they came back.The fish and shrimp inside are bouncing and very fresh.

Cheng Langyu: "Take out a basin."

Cheng Shao bounced back to the house. "Sister-in-law, take the basin."

"Take that wooden barrel on the ground." Ye Rendong said while covering Mao Mao's head.

"Okay!" Cheng Shao turned a corner and took out the wooden barrel beside the cupboard.

Cheng Limin looked at Cheng Lang's jade eyes with resentment, and took a basket of pigweed to the backyard without complaint.

When he came out, Cheng Langyu happened to pick fish from the basket.Cheng Limin kicked him away, but he didn't move, but almost fell to the ground himself.

In particular, Cheng Langyu curled his lips in disgust and said: "Get some water, the fish are thirsty to death."

Cheng Limin: "I'm a guest, how can you order me around! Brother Ayu!"

Cheng Limin found his confidence, pointed to the kitchen and raised his chin: "Go!"

Cheng Langyu rolled his eyes: "I'll go."

"Huh?" Cheng Limin raised his hand.Why is it different from what he thought...

Cheng Langyu was eager to go back to the same room with his husband, brought water and quickly returned to the house.

Cheng Limin squatted down like a bear, with two cubs beside him, picking and choosing among the fish, shrimp and crabs in the basket.

He kept muttering: "This fish tail is red, so it's just braised in soy sauce. Ouch! This shrimp is as big as a finger, and it can be fried. This crab is good, suitable for grinding the rhubarb at home."

Cheng Baoer looked at the two piles he dug out with huge differences, and said, "Where's Dahei?"

Cheng Limin: "Dahei has a small appetite, one fish is enough."

Cheng Baoer was suspicious: "Really?"

"Hmm, it can't be truer!"

Ye Rendong didn't know what the outsiders were doing, so he yelled to the outside after cooking: "It's time to eat."

Cheng Limin: "Come here!"

Ye Liandong looked at the man who was still sitting by the stove, and said softly: "Sir, wash your hands and eat."

Cheng Langyu wiped off the dust on his body, took a basin with hot water and brought it to Ye Liandong, spread his hands and said: "My husband will wash it for you."

Ye Liandong looked at the cat on his body, and then at his husband's hand.After hesitating for a second, he picked up the cat and placed it by his feet, and handed it over.

He looked up inadvertently and saw the corner of Cheng Langyu's mouth curled up.

Ye Liandong didn't understand, so: "What are you laughing at, Xianggong?"

Cheng Langyu said: "Did I laugh?"

Ye Liandong moved down from the stool and squatted next to the man on the mushroom.This time, instead of looking at cats, look at Cheng Langyu.

The big hand was covered with calluses, supporting the back of his hand.A little hard, but solid to the touch.

The color of the hands of the two people is also different.My own is like the tip of an onion, in vain.And Xianggong's hands are wheat-colored, as if they have been in the mud for a long time.

The man picked up the water and poured it on his hands. It was warm and comfortable.

Ye Liandong knocked her head on the man's arm, watching quietly.From time to time, pinch the man's fingers to stop him from washing his hands.

But Cheng Limin, who just walked in, was bored.

"Ahem! I'm hungry." Cheng Limin glanced up at the beam, and said without guilt.

Ye Liandong's shoulders trembled, and the earlobes hidden in her hair turned red quietly.

Cheng Lang glanced at him. "It's in the pot, fill it yourself."

Cheng Limin shrugged and was not polite, took out a large bowl from the cabinet and ate it.

Cheng Langyu put the handkerchief on his husband's hand and wiped off the water.Squeeze gently, soft.

Ye Rendong looked outside the door: "Where are the two of Cheng Shao?"

Cheng Limin squatted on the eaves with a bowl in his hand and said, "They said they wanted to kill fish for the cats to eat."

Ye Liandong supported the man's shoulders and stood up straight, rubbing his legs that had been squatting for a long time.

Cheng Langyu went out with a basin to pour water, Ye Rendong said: "Master, call the two little ones."

Saying that, Ye Rendong went to the cupboard to take out the bowls and chopsticks of several people, poured water over them and put them on the stove.

What is made in the pot is hole rice, which is to boil the rice half-cooked with water first, and then drain the water.Then fry some vegetables and put the condiments.Then cover the rice with the dish.

Poke the air holes and add a little water to steam it.

It's a little faster to do this, and there are rice and vegetables, and the taste is not bad.

Ye Liandong used a spatula to mix the rice on the top and the bacon and radish on the bottom.

The bacon is greasy, but with the tenderness of the radish, it relieves the greasiness and has more meat flavor.Just with the rice, the rice grains are sticky with oil and water.It is so delicious that even Cheng Baoer can eat a big bowl at a time.

If you are thirsty, there is rice soup.The milky white rice soup is silky and smooth, with the fragrance of rice.

Cheng Limin finished a large bowl in one go, and then returned to the pot to serve it.

Cheng Langyu ignored him, picked out the meat from his bowl and gave it to Ye Rendong.

Ye Rendong was holding his own small bowl, and as he ate, the bowl was still getting higher and higher.He divided some of these and gave them to Cheng Shao and Cheng Baoer.

"What about the fish?" Ye Rendong asked the two children.

"In the bucket, brother won't let us kill the fish." Cheng Baoer said.

Ye Rendong also nodded: "You can't touch the knife now, your hand will bleed a lot if you scratch it."

Cheng Langyu: "The fish is directly fed to the cat."

Cheng Shao scratched his head, as if what the elder brother said was right.

Cheng Limin crouched on the eaves and slowed down his eating. "What's the matter? The cats in the village still go to the river to find fish by themselves. The raw ones are still fresh."

Cheng Baoer looked at Cheng Shao and saw him nodding.

"Yeah! Eat it raw." Cheng Baoer said while pinching the chopsticks.

After the meal, the two brothers sat in the yard to digest.

Ye Liandong went to the backyard to check on the pigs, and then fed some food to the cats.As for the small fishes that were caught, it was the siblings who looked after them.

After the animals at home were fed, the men outside also had a rest.

Ye Liandong took off her apron and said, "Let's go, go into the mountains to dig bamboo shoots."

Now in early spring, the bamboo shoots will emerge with a sharp point, which is just right for digging spring bamboo shoots.

Ye Liandong originally planned to cut some bamboo to weave rabbit cages, but happened to think of spring bamboo shoots.

Since you are on the way, dig more.Made into dried bamboo shoots, it is worth eating or selling.

The three adults are together, and the bamboo forest is opposite, so it is not safe to leave the house, only two children follow.

From the small courtyard to the bamboo forest, if the wooden bridge can be crossed, it will take less than half a quarter of an hour.But the wooden bridge has been around for a long time, so I don't feel relieved to step on it.So a few people walked along the path at the foot of the mountain.

On the path, the two children chirped like birds released from their cages, and countless birds responded.

When they arrived at the bamboo forest, as soon as they put down the basket, they saw Cheng Limin jumping out like a wild dog.

Ye Rendong looked at Cheng Langyu decisively, then snickered.The man's handsome little dislike is quite childish.

But only for a moment, Cheng Langyu put away his expression and started looking for bamboo shoots.

Ye Rendong had no choice but to drag the two children to follow Cheng Langyu, learning to identify where the bamboo shoots were hidden.

Cheng Langyu: "Look along the bamboo whip and pay attention to see if the soil is raised a little. If the soil is soft, it is very likely."

If it pops up, it's easy to find.But Cheng Shao and Cheng Baoer couldn't understand bamboo whips.

After the three felt that they could leave the teacher, they grabbed the branches and pawed around.

After Cheng Limin played for a while, he also became serious.He still hasn't forgotten the business, the daughter-in-law is coming to the house in the second year of junior high school, and he wants to find something good to treat her well.

Ye Rendong was surprised.Why did the second brother become reckless all at once, all the bamboo leaves, earth and stones on it were planed up, like scattered flowers.

Ye Liandong stayed away from Cheng Limin's rear, and also immersed himself in digging.

Before digging two or three, the voices of Cheng Shao and Cheng Baoer sounded again.

"Sister-in-law, here it is!"

Ye Rendong couldn't dig out the children's speed to find the bamboo shoots, so he simply said to Cheng Langyu below: "Master, I'll get the bamboo shoots out, can you dig them up?"

Cheng Langyu stood up straight: "Okay."

Ye Rendong smiled at him, and walked behind the two children.

The child's eyes were sharp, and he found a lot of bamboo shoots, all of which were pestered by the side with wooden sticks.

Ye Liandong pulled the stick and scraped off the surrounding bamboo leaves with a hoe.

The mud is soft and easy to dig.The hoe scraped down along the tips of the bamboo shoots, gradually revealing the round body of the bamboo shoots.

Ye Liandong stretched out his hand to poke, some fluff stuck to his fingertips, and he rubbed against the muddy floor.

The bamboo shoots are densely spaced, with black lines on the surface.This is a good bamboo shoot, it must be delicious.

Ye Lonicera planed the hole quickly, and changed the place as soon as it was planed.

Not long after, there were eight if not ten new mud pits in the bamboo forest dug out by Ye Lidong.

Cheng Limin was digging at the top, Cheng Langyu was looking for it at the bottom, and the middle piece was occupied by the little baby and Ye Lonicera.

Bamboo leaves move with the wind, and the sound is clear.

It only took more than an hour to come out, and the three back baskets were mostly filled, not counting the ones that were dug out and not broken.

Ye Liandong stood up with her waist propped up.When I saw Cheng Langyu pointing to a place to dig, I knew he was looking for a bamboo whip.

This method is really good, one can find three or five.

Ye Rendong ran down to follow Cheng Langyu and said, "Sir, you can go back now."

I still have children with me, so I can't stay in the mountains for long.

Cheng Langyu said: "Okay."

A group of people dug up the bamboo shoots that Ye Lonicera had dug out, and the two men erected the bamboo shoots on the side of the basket, and piled them up one more layer.

Ye Liandong hurriedly said: "Don't split up, I can afford it."

"This one is heavy." Cheng Langyu kept clapping his hands.

Ye Liandong said: "Okay, okay, let's go back."

Cheng Limin walked in front and strode out: "Let's go!" The two children rushed forward.

Ye Rendong had no choice but to be led away by her husband-in-law, her eyes couldn't get around the basket of sprouting bamboo shoots.

Because of the chopping of bamboo, the chopping of bamboo has become secondary.

No, there were only two men holding a piece of bamboo in each hand, pulling long grass marks in the forest.

After arriving home, Cheng Limin hurried back before dark.

Cheng Langyu waved his hand and asked him to put down the bamboo and walk away with the bamboo shoots on his back.

Ye Rendong smiled and said: "It seems that the second brother has a heart for the second sister-in-law."

Cheng Langyu scratched his nose, his eyes were full of warmth.

Ye Rendong chuckled, turned around and hugged the man's waist. "Well, my husband is the most caring for me."

Not long after I came back, the setting sun set.

Ye Liandong boiled water to wash himself, while Cheng Langyu was outside scratching bamboo strips.The machete runs along the bamboo, shaving off the uneven branches. With a "bang", the knife penetrated into the bamboo.

Cheng Langyu grabbed both sides and pulled, and the sound of "cracking" broken bamboos kept coming and going.

When Ye Liandong boiled the water and went out to call for people, the two long bamboos outside had already turned into bamboo sticks.

"Sir, the water is ready; brother Shao and Bao'er wash their faces."

Cheng Langyu heard the voice and quickened his movements.

In the yard, two siblings guard the released rabbits.Cheng Baoer hurriedly carried the rabbit back to its nest, while Cheng Shao cleaned up the black beans on the ground.

The siblings entered the room obediently, Ye Rendong handed Cheng Shao the toothbrush, and put the water in the wooden basin on the lower shelf.

When Cheng Langyu arrived under the oil lamp, Ye Rendong immediately went to meet him.

"Sir, don't move." Ye Liandong grabbed the man's wrist, "Bamboo shavings are all over your body."

Cheng Langyu stopped obediently.

Ye Liandong circled around the person, and patted off the ashes on his front and back, before telling him to touch the water.
