The days when I farmed in Liaozhai

Chapter 32
The vegetable leaves were covered with morning dew, and the cloth shoes were soon wet.Fu Duoxi put down the vegetable basket, raised his feet to pick off the weed leaves, raised his head and couldn't help but look up the cliff.Looking through the thick bamboo branches and leaves, you can only vaguely see the corner of the white rock on the cliff mountain.

"Fox Xiaomeng, do you think Uncle Yao went to the cliff by the stream?"

Always find something to say, otherwise the empty heart will feel really uncomfortable.Fu Duoxi turned to look at the little fox demon.The little fox demon was sitting on a rock beside the dish, looking at the sky in a daze.

"Hey, Hu Xiaomeng, did you hear me? I asked you where Uncle Yao is going to Yashan?"

After Fu Duoxi finished speaking, he immediately reminded himself to hold his breath, it was not her who looked so sentimental.No one will always be by her side. In this world, she must learn to face life alone.

"Ah, sister, you miss Uncle Yao... Uncle Yao left last night without telling us. When I go to find Uncle Yao, I must tell him for my sister..."

When the little fox demon said this, his eyes were still looking at the sky, and he whispered again: "I miss Brother Jun too..."

Every time the little fox demon mentioned Brother Jun, his eyes were watery.Fu Duoxi had seen too much of the little fox demon's watery eyes, not only didn't take it easy, but regretted it, he shouldn't have sent Master Ji away in such a hurry.Anyway, like seeing off Uncle Yao, we have to have a table for the last dinner, so that everyone can say goodbye...

Well, what's the use of regretting...

Fu Duoxi pinched his thigh a few times, and finally calmed down.He picked up the basket again and walked into the fields to pick vegetables.

The small green vegetables in this season are fresh and tender, and they are especially delicious whether they are made into soup or stuffing.Looking at the lush green vegetable field, the scene of Mr. Ji opening up wasteland appeared in front of his eyes. At that time, the land was full of stones...

Fuduo looked at the big white stone sitting under the little fox demon's buttocks, and pursed his lips.At this time, I finally understood the little fox demon's feelings for Mr. Ji, it was the feeling of opening up wasteland together and helping each other.Although the little fox demon didn't make much effort, it followed Mr. Ji every day, serving tea, pouring water, and handing towels to wipe sweat for Mr. Ji, which was more spiritually supportive and encouraging than Mr. Ji...

Presumably that big rock was specially left by Mr. Ji for the little fox demon to sit and rest.

When asked, it really is!
"Go back, I'll make dumplings for you today."

Fu Duoxi pulled the little fox demon back into the house together.

"Sister, Uncle Yao is gone, no one earns money. Can we still eat meat in the future?"

"With me here, do you still worry about food?"

Fu Duoxi patted the little fox demon's head.The purse left by the black cat demon can generate money continuously, so as long as you are not greedy, taking some money from the purse each time is enough for you to have enough food and clothing.

At that time, I opened the tea shed because I didn’t want others to occupy my homestead.

Now that the homestead is requisitioned to expand the official road, I really answered a sentence: "What is yours is yours, and what is not yours can't be yours."

It seemed that there was not a single cloud in the evening, but it began to rain.The raindrops became denser and denser, and the sky became a rain curtain.

Rainy days are relaxing.

Fu Duoxi leaned against the wall, holding the embroidery frame in his hand, carefully embroidering silk thread into the drawn pattern stitch by stitch.The little fox demon sat at Fu Duoxi's feet, arranging colorful silk threads.

At noon, Aunt Huang specially sent Fu Duoxi some embroidered purses, hoping that Fu Duoxi could earn some money.The rice in the field will not be harvested until autumn, and the county government will have to pay for the deduction of their own rations.

It costs money to buy oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and clothing. Although Fu Duoxi is not short of money, he can't refuse Aunt Huang's kindness, let alone let people know that she still has a money bag that can make money.

"Ah, my sister embroiders so beautifully!"

Fu Duoxi is also very satisfied with his embroidery work.Take off the embroidered material from the stretcher and put it in a small basket, then pick up a piece of blue silk and stretch it on.

Only the palm-sized stretcher made the blue silk shine brightly.

The black stone bracelet on her wrist bounced back and forth a few times, and then quietly looped around her suet-like white porcelain wrist. Very pleasant on the skin, with a faint smell of forest wood stone moss.

The little fox demon is only in charge of grinding beads to make bracelets, not in charge of teaching Fu Duoxi how to use the string of stone beads for storage.Asking means that the secret must not be leaked, and if I ask again, I will smile and say that I will know when the river god mother-in-law comes over.

"The river god mother-in-law hasn't come for two days, right?"

"Yeah, it seems so."

The little fox demon put down the silk thread, grabbed a peach from the basin and took a bite, tilted his head to look at the mandarin duck embroidered under Fu Duoxi's needle, thought for a while and said:
"Grandmother God was drunk that day, and Uncle Yao sent her back... Then Uncle Yao left directly, and didn't come back to say goodbye to us seriously. It's thanks to my sister who cooked him such a big table.

Uncle Yao won’t be able to eat such delicious food again... If I see Uncle Yao, I must tell him about it..."

Fu Duoxi didn't speak, she knew that the black cat demon had come back.But maybe it was too late at that time, and the black cat demon didn't want to disturb her, so she left a note by the bed and left quietly.

The usage of the money bag was written on the note, reminding me again and again not to be greedy and take out all the money in the money bag.

Fu Duoxi is certainly not a greedy person, and he can't think of any special place to spend money.Now that the small courtyard has been built as she wanted, the only thing she thinks about now is to build a study room, and pick up the piano, chess, calligraphy and paintings that she has practiced since she was a child.

Fu Duoxi once wanted to go to the imperial examinations to pursue an official career, just like a novel about the imperial examinations that she was chasing before, but then she thought that life is short, and it is already very good to be able to live the current life, there is no need to take risks, she is not in her bones A man of adventure.

Rain can make people relax and let people sleep more peacefully.Fu Duoxi woke up suddenly after sleeping until midnight.The rain stopped outside the window, and there was a glimmer of light in the night.

The little fox demon was soundly asleep and let out a small sound.

Fu Duoxi reached out to light the oil lamp, put on his clothes and stared out of the window for a while.It's better to make a few purses than just sit around and stay awake.

After twisting the silk thread and threading it on the needle, I took the embroidered silk cloth in my hand and sewed two stitches, when I vaguely heard the sound of knocking on the window from the kitchen.

"Clap clap clap..."

The voice is unhurried, polite and restrained.

Fu Duoxi's heart immediately reached his throat.Outside the window behind the stove is a forest of wild bamboos on cliffs!

"Fox Xiaomeng, Fox Xiaomeng."

Fu Duoxi grabbed the little fox demon's ears.The little fox demon finally woke up.

"Listen, is there something knocking on the window..."

"Ah, Uncle Yao must be back!"

The little fox demon jumped off the bed and rushed out of the room while talking.

Fu Duoxi followed closely to put on his shoes, and when he reached the door, he heard the cheerful voice of the little fox demon:
"Brother Jun, brother Jun, why is it Brother Jun...I miss you so much!"
