Reborn in the fiery age, I am a salted fish in the mountains

Chapter 82 What a smell of vinegar

The small valley where Liu Hongdong built the pig breeding base is not far from Aju's hut.

It's just that the mountains are high and the forests are dense, the trails are deep and deep, and the valleys are full of stubble.

If someone who can't find the way comes, he may take a detour in the short distance of less than 3 miles, and accidentally turn into another small canyon.

Han Xiaokang returned to the hut after wandering around for a while.

Today I went out to help my cousin Liu Hongdong, build a pigsty and a defensive wall, and Zhou Min and Aju who stayed at home were not idle either.

Although the living place is very simple at present, there is a priority in everything.

Improving the living environment can be put behind a little bit, but the production and construction work must be pushed forward as soon as possible.

In order to live here for a long time, Zhou Min and Aju are working day and night.

The division of labor between the two of them is very clear: during the day, Aju washes and cooks in the hut, and hatches chicks with the old hen that Aunt Wang "honors" Han Xiaokang.

Treat this humble thatched hut as if you bought a new house in the city, Aju, and even used a small hammer to smash every inch of the ground in the house to make it smooth.

Zhou Min, on the other hand, stood in the yard under the scorching sun, and hoeed the entire yard well.

She is planning to grow some food and vegetables in the yard, and strives to achieve self-sufficiency as soon as possible.

At night, the work of Aju and Zhou Min will be reversed, and Aju will be busy in the yard, while Zhou Min will stay in the hut and help clean up the house.
As the old saying goes, a woman's home is a woman's home.

Only with women can we have a real home.

In this simple thatched hut, including the yard that was overgrown with grass, there are now two women who are there to tidy up day and night.

Not much work,
It gives people a new look:

On the thatched roof, cooking smoke curled up.

In the yard, a petite girl squatted on the ground and carefully rummaged through the grass roots and stones in the soil.

On the shelf next to it, although worn out, the laundry was extremely clean.

1 puppy and 2 little wolves are playing and playing in the courtyard.

The ducklings quacked, jumped into the stream for a while to look for food, and then climbed up from the stream in a row, flapping their short fleshy wings, and ran quickly to Zhou Min's feet.

They are going to find earthworms to eat.

And the smell of chicken and miscellaneous rice in the house permeated the whole yard through the sparse bamboo fence.
Aju, who is in a good mood, hums two songs from time to time:
[Yaomei, I live in Wujiazhai Village, the mountain is separated by water and rocks.

Magpies chirped in the trees, and butterflies fell to the flower beds.

Yaomei in the mountains is obedient and obedient, her sweet dimples are cute.]

Aju's singing voice is crisp and clear, and every line of singing reveals a joyful and joyful mood.

The emotions in the singing are too rich to fit in the simple hut, and the happy mood permeates the whole yard
Zhou Min made a joke while carefully picking the grass roots in the field, "Oh, sister Aju, look at the sparrows in the yard, they are fluttering, they are all beating the time for you!"

"Hehehe, I'm happy, I just want to sing." Aju's laughter came from the room, "Sister Zhou Min, you don't know, I have never been so happy when I grow up!
In the past, when I was sad, I would sneak to the back of the village. There was a small grotto there, and I liked to go into it and whisper to the wild flowers in the grotto."

Zhou Min basically has a purpose in speaking and doing things.

Hearing what Aju said, Zhou Min asked: "Why are you talking to the wild flowers? You are in the village, don't you have a good friend like Wu Xiaoshuang? Why don't you go and play with her?"

Aju in the room responded while busy, "Sister Xiaoshuang? She is really capable and knows a lot.

Sister Xiaoshuang is very accurate in seeing many things. But the problem is, she is very busy during the day, and Sister Xiaoshuang has to rest at night. How can I have much time to talk to her? "

"Wu Xiaoshuang is so beautiful, there are quite a few people chasing her in the village, right?"

Zhou Min asked casually, "Can you tell me what kind of person she is?"

There was a little silence in the room, apparently Aju was thinking about how to answer Zhou Min's question better.

At this moment, the courtyard door rang.

It turned out that it was Han Xiaokang who came back, "Aju, don't be so busy cooking and eating! I have peaches here, and you will be full after eating one."

Zhou Min raised his head, "Ah, what a big peach. Hey, Xiaokang, why is there a monkey behind you? Is it greedy for the peach in your hand?"

Han Xiaokang turned his head and glanced at the little macaque that was still following behind him, "No, it sent me this peach."

"so good?"

Zhou Min was surprised, "Is this monkey so intelligent?"

Han Xiaokang said with a smile, "This is Aju, who brought it to me as an apology. Get a basin of water, so I can wash the peaches for you!"

Puffing up her sleeves, Aju, who showed a section of her bright wrist, wiped her hands and appeared at the door, "Ah, Brother Xiaokang, is that little monkey here again?"

"Ugh-"

Erhu obviously also saw the little macaque, growled in his throat, and rushed towards the little macaque in the yard, warning the monkey not to climb on the roof.

And those two little wolves, maybe out of their instinct, or maybe out of wanting to please the two tigers, also growled at the little monkey!
Unexpectedly, this move really caught the little macaque up to the thatched roof.

I saw it grinning towards the yard, and from time to time, it used its front claws to pretend to scratch on the roof, pretending to pick up something and smash it down.

It seems that

In the future, this monkey will probably have to fight with wolves and dogs.
"Two tigers are good, don't bite."

Aju called softly, "I like this little monkey, don't bite it."

Erhu let out an "uh" in his nostrils, as if he was agreeing, but also as if he was jealous
Today the little monkey came back, and there were big peaches to eat again, Aju seemed very happy, "Brother Xiaokang, are you tired, go into the room and rest, I will wash the peaches and peel them for you."

As she spoke, Aju stretched out her hand and pulled Han Xiaokang into the room.

Now Aju is very happy, very happy.

But Zhou Min, who was busy in the yard, froze slightly at this moment: it seems that only Aju and Han Xiaokang knew about the origin of this little monkey.

This is equivalent to having a common secret between them, and wouldn't he become an outsider without knowing it?
yard,
Erhu was jealous that the little monkey got Aju's favor; and Zhou Min also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

As a result, the small courtyard, which was originally filled with the fragrance of the land and a happy atmosphere, now has a little more sour smell.
Especially from the house, the extremely sweet voice made the smell of acetic acid in the yard stronger: "Come on, this peach doesn't need to be peeled with a knife, look, just tear the skin lightly!" , it fell off. Ah, the juice is running out, open your mouth to catch it quickly, don’t waste it.”

"Oh, this peach juice is too much, I can't hold it. Oh, you eat, Xiao, brother Xiaokang, the peaches are so big."

"Hurry up and eat it. This kind of peach has high sugar content. It's better than buying fruit candy from a supply and marketing agency."

"Hey, call sister Zhou Min in and let her eat some too!"

Hearing this sentence, Zhou Min felt sore: Tell me to eat something "also"?
Aju's family is "Come and eat peaches", but when it comes to me, it becomes "Come and eat some too".
"Ouch!"

In the yard, Zhou Min suddenly let out a cry of pain.

Only then did the honey/peach smell in the room disappear instantly
