After marrying the rough man Orion, the little peasant girl was spoiled

Chapter 37

After returning home, Cheng Huai ate all the remaining courgettes. He sat on the bench, staring at Jiang Miao closely with his dark shiny eyes.

Jiang Miao was a little uncomfortable being stared at, and turned her head to look at the tree they cut down in the afternoon.

I heard from Niang that cutting down a big tree is enough to make a big bed, and they cut down two, probably planning to make a small bed together.

Yu Ying came out with a small machete and cut off all the twigs around the big tree. Seeing Jiang Miao, she walked to Cheng Huai's side and picked up the ax at his feet to chop with Yu Ying.

Seeing that Cheng Huai was also coming over to cook together, Jiang Miao pointed to the room and said, "Cheng Huai, you go to eat, and by the way, see if Dabao and Xiaobao have finished eating."

He has been tired all afternoon and hasn't eaten yet, so he should take a rest.

Yu Ying also nodded and said: "Go, watch them order, don't let them spoil the rice paste."

Dabao and Xiaobao have become a bit picky eaters recently. They don't like to eat rice noodles, and they are not as obedient as they used to eat.

Hearing this, Cheng Huai bent down and picked up the branches on the ground and carried them to the backyard, then washed his hands and ate.

Seeing Cheng Huai's return, Dabao and Xiaobao called out obediently, and they became much more honest when eating.

Cheng Huai took a look at the mush in their bowls and ate most of it. Yu Ying would still add some green vegetables or other vegetables to it now. When they grow up, they can eat like them or eat pasta.

Cheng Huai quickly finished his meal and drank a bowl of soup, put away the bowls and chopsticks on the table, and took Dabao and Xiaobao to the yard to digest food.

Yu Ying was tired of chopping trees and sat on the side to rest. Jiang Miao was still chopping slowly with an axe, not fast, but did not stop.

Cheng Huai walked over and took the ax in her hand, looked down at her slightly red palm, "You go to see the child, I'll come."

Jiang Miao didn't cut it down. Seeing that Dabao and Xiaobao were accompanied by their mother, they piled up all the branches that had been cut down, and they could take them to the backyard to burn firewood later.

The rough man cut the branches very quickly, and he raised and lowered the knife quickly, and the only sound in the yard was the sound of branches breaking.

Seeing Jiang Miao looking at Cheng Huai in a daze, Yu Ying couldn't bear to disturb her, and smiled: "Girl Miao, mother has gone to the backyard to boil water. Take a look at Dabao and Xiaobao. Don't just look at Cheng Huai."

"Mother, I don't." Jiang Miao realized instantly, and turned to look at the two children.

Cheng Huai paused for a moment while chopping the branches, turned his head to look at Jiang Miao, and soon turned his head to continue chopping.

After a while, all the branches were cut, Cheng Huai piled them together, stretched out his arms to hug them, and carried them all to the backyard.

Jiang Miao took Dabao and Xiaobao into the house, closed the door, and saw Yu Ying coming in with water.

"Mother, wash Dabao's face." Dabao sat on the low stool, crossing his feet happily.

Xiaobao imitated the example, puffing out his soft cheeks, "Mother, Xiaobao wants it too."

They are getting closer to Jiang Miao now, and Jiang Miao's acting like a baby to the two soft dumplings is also very beneficial.

She soaked the veil, wiped Da Bao's face first, then put it in the water and rubbed it again for Xiao Bao.

The two cubs came in turns, neither fighting nor grabbing, very well-behaved.

Yu Ying brought in the dried clothes from the backyard, and looked at the mother and son who got along well with each other, with smiles on her face: "Girl Miao, the water in the backyard has been boiled, you should go wash it quickly, and leave these two to me." Come."

"Has Cheng Huai finished washing?" Jiang Miao asked, turning her head.

"He said to let you wash first, and the water has already been brought into the house for you."

Jiang Miao stood up immediately and hurried to the house to find a change of clothes.

In the backyard, Cheng Huai was feeding vegetable leaves to the rabbit. When he saw Jiang Miao coming, he went into the dark room and lit a candle.

With a calm expression, he said, "Go and wash, the water is ready."

Holding the clothes in her arms, Jiang Miao looked at the burning room, "Thank you!"

I went to the town today and sweated a lot, and I cut down trees for a while just now, I'm afraid it will stink if I don't take a bath.

It was expensive to light candles, and Jiang Miao quickly washed her clothes after she took off her clothes. The water was neither hot nor cold, which was just right.

After taking a shower, I was about to get dressed, but found that I was too hasty just now and missed the innermost clothes.

Jiang Miao hesitated for a moment, opened the wooden door, caught a glimpse of the elongated figure under the moonlight, and said with a hint of embarrassment in his voice, "Cheng Huai, can you help me take off my clothes?"

Cheng Huai turned his head, only a head poked out from the door, but he still didn't dare to look at her, and asked in a thick and hoarse voice, "What clothes?"

"Just... the innermost clothes." Jiang Miao bit her tongue secretly, feeling really embarrassed.

She originally planned not to wear it at all, but she felt that it was not good for the two of them to sleep together at night.

Cheng Huai's body froze, and he asked calmly, "Where do you put it?"

"It's on the first floor of the cabinet. You can see it when you open it. It's red." After Jiang Miao finished speaking, her face felt hot.

Cheng Huai quickly turned around and entered the room. When he opened the cabinet and saw the red bellyband, his usually indifferent face lost his composure.

He pursed his lower lip, reached out and grabbed the red bellyband, and strode out of the room quickly.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Jiang Miao stretched out a hand from the inside of the room without looking outside, "Cheng Huai, give it to me!"

Cheng Huai hurriedly stuffed something hot into her hands, and seeing her white and slender arms, he felt his whole body heat up.

He turned around briefly, went to the chair and sat down. After sitting for a while, he quickly stood up again and went to the stove to scoop up cold water to drink.

After Jiang Miao got dressed, she took out all the changed clothes and put them in the wooden basin. She didn't see Cheng Huai, so she called out directly: "Cheng Huai, I'm fine, go and wash it."

"En." The man responded in a low voice, and walked out of the kitchen with a bucket of cold water in his hand.

Seeing the person, Jiang Miao didn't say anything, and pointed to another tub: "Put your clothes here later, I'll wash them by the river tomorrow."

With that said, she turned and entered the house.

Cheng Huai glanced at the wooden basin, and saw that all the clothes she had changed after taking a bath were in it, and her Adam's apple rolled slightly.

Jiang Miao went back to the house, because Cheng Huai was still taking a bath, the candles in the room were always burning, thinking that she was not too sleepy, so Jiang Miao simply took out the small purse Yu Ying gave her, and poured out all the silver and copper coins in it. , going to count.

Last time I sold rabbits and earned more than one or two taels of silver, and selling buns and courgettes was almost half of the money, but I spent a lot on buying cloth, and now there are still more than half a tael of silver in the small purse.

Cheng Huai entered the room and saw Jiang Miao lying on the bed counting copper coins, so he went straight to the cabinet and rummaged inside.

Jiang Miao raised her head slightly suspiciously, and saw the man coming over with a gray cloth bag. It was not big, but it looked heavy.

"There are five taels of silver and some broken silver and copper plates in here." Cheng Huai handed the gray cloth bag in front of Jiang Miao's eyes.
