Chapter 88
"Damn gourd, get up!" Meng Fuling couldn't push the gourd no matter what.

"I won't get up! You smell so good..." His warm breath blew against her neck, itching and numb, which made her feel flustered, but his big hands were restless.

"Don't be like this, you're drunk!" Such a gourd was too irritating, and Meng Fuling wanted to cry.

His hand seemed to have magic power, every time it passed her body, it was like igniting a fire, burning a strange longing in her heart.

"Did I ever say that I like you?" Calabash looked up at her and murmured.

Meng Fuling was still trying to push him away, but she was stunned when she heard what he said, a strong joy spread in her heart, she never thought that Hulu, who has always been taciturn, would say that she likes her, is this the truth after drinking?
The two were so close, as if each other's breaths were intertwined, the ambiguous feelings became more and more obvious.

Her mind was a little confused, she was a little dizzy, and her whole body was extremely hot. She had drank a lot of wine before, but she was only slightly drunk.

At this moment, the smell of alcohol seemed to be concentrated together, which made her intoxicated, maybe it was because of the gourd?
She became confused, no longer resisted him, and stretched out her hands to wrap around his strong waist.

When the restraints on her body were completely removed and he was about to step forward, there was a sudden wow, and the loud cry of a child erupted.

Wow!It was like pouring a basin of cold water on the heads of the two people, which made their hearts cool and made them sober up a lot.

Especially Meng Fuling, Ruoruo just realized that she and Hulu were going to do that, her pretty face turned red instantly.

Because even Dahui and his wife were drunk and there was no spare guest room, Meng Fuling asked someone to help them into Hulu's room.

That's why she brought the gourd into her room, but for a moment she forgot that the little wax gourd was still in the room, and now thinking about it, she felt embarrassed.

Thinking that she was actually stripped completely in front of her son, ready to do that kind of thing with a man, she wanted to find a piece of tofu to kill her.

"Get up!" Meng Fuling was so ashamed that she pushed and beat the gourd.

Any man would be annoyed if he was interrupted at such a critical moment, especially when he rarely had the opportunity to open a gourd of meat, "This bastard dares to spoil my good deed!"

But no matter how angry it was, Calabash resigned himself to retreating from Meng Fuling's body.

"You're not drunk at all!" Meng Fuling was finally sure that Hulu was pretending to be drunk.

This bastard actually pretended to be drunk to lie to her and seduce her, it's too hateful!
But Meng Fuling knew that she couldn't blame him, because her body didn't reject him, and she even liked his touch, but of course, she couldn't say these words.

When Hulu heard her question, he stroked his head with his hand, "Ouch! I'm so dizzy, I'm drunk..."

After yelling, he collapsed on the kang, deliberately stretched his limbs, and closed his eyes to sleep. In fact, he didn't want to pretend to be drunk, but under the urging of alcohol, he followed his heart and became a little more self-willed.

Meng Fuling was dumbfounded by him, got up and got off the kang, put on her clothes, and then went to hug the little wax gourd.

"Little winter melon, be good! Don't cry, don't cry!" Meng Fuling patted the little winter melon and coaxed softly.

Little Winter Melon pouted her bright red mouth, buried her small head on her chest and rubbed it back and forth.

Seeing this movement, Meng Fuling knew that Xiaodonggua wanted to drink milk, so she had to take off her clothes and feed him.

Hulu couldn't help opening his eyes, and it happened that Xiaodonggua turned his head away, met his eyes, and smiled at him.

etc!Did he read wrong?Why did he seem to see pride in the little winter melon's eyes?
Hulu rubbed his eyes, ready to take another look, but Xiaodonggua ignored him and buried his head in Meng Fuling's chest again.

That night, Hulu slept very restlessly, the little brother kept his head upright, showing no signs of softening, and Meng Fuling refused to do that kind of thing with him again, which really made him extremely tormented.

******
The next day, after everyone woke up, they all complained of headaches, so Meng Fuling asked Mrs. Qiao to take some celery and squeeze the juice for everyone to drink.

Celery juice can relieve headache and brain swelling after drunkenness.Sure enough, after everyone drank it, they got better immediately.

After breakfast, Luo Yunhao carried the burden he had packed long ago, turned around every step of the way, and left reluctantly.

As soon as Luo Yunhao left, the house immediately became much cleaner, but Meng Fuling would often receive resentful looks from Gourd, which made her feel extremely guilty.

Xue was also very puzzled why he passed out drunk, wondering if it was because of drunk dates?But she obviously doesn't eat much, but just a few dates, can she be intoxicated?
Meng Fuling would not admit that she intentionally gave Xue Shi some drunken dates, so she had to pretend to be a fool.

Although Hulu didn't really eat meat, he still tasted a little bit of sweetness. From time to time, when no one was around, he would touch her.

A few times when it came to a critical juncture, Xiaodonggua would cry at the right time, or just happened to be interrupted by trifles.

It made the gourd very angry, and sometimes I wanted to strangle the little winter melon, how could it always be bad for me?Moreover, he actually had the feeling that the little wax gourd did it on purpose.

******
Gourd is dissatisfied with desire, and always stares at Meng Fuling with wolfish eyes, which makes her feel that Yali Mountain is too big.

Fortunately, not long after, Meng Fuling started to get busy again, and Meng Fuling didn't have the time to think so much.

Time passed in a hurry, and as soon as April entered, Meng Fuling cut off the hard shells of lotus seeds and soaked them.

The lotus seeds she soaked in the previous experiment also sprouted, proving that these lotus seeds can be used as seeds.

The water surface of the shallow water lotus root should not be too deep. The wetland where the lotus root field was dug is slightly higher.

Otherwise, we have to wait for the rain, or carry water to irrigate the lotus root field, which is too troublesome.

When building the embankment, Meng Fuling deliberately left an opening, because different stages of lotus root planting require different water depths, which must be controlled and adjusted.

She also thought that when the buds first sprouted, the shallow water only needs to be as deep as the feet, and when the lotus leaves grow, the water will be deeper.

In summer, when the lotus pods bloom, the water should be deeper. When harvesting lotus roots, the water must be drained, leaving only mud, and it will be easier to dig the lotus roots.

These experiences and methods are learned by Meng Fuling from the modern grandfather. He said that this method can store water and waterproof, freely adjust the depth of water, and it is also very beneficial for fertilization.

Meng Fuling watched the lotus seeds sprout, and when they reached two leaves, they could be planted.

Put the lotus root pit in the shallowest water, bury the germinated lotus seeds in the mud, and gradually add water as the leaves grow. Although this is troublesome, it is the safest way.

"Fu Ling, I didn't expect you to really know how to grow lotus root." On the day of planting lotus root, Li Shanhu also came to help.

Hearing what Meng Fuling said clearly and logically, she gradually believed that Meng Fuling could really grow lotus root. After all, she could even make such rare foods as potato vermicelli and instant noodles. What is impossible?

Not only Li Shanhu thinks this way, most other people in the family think the same way, but Steward Lu thinks that Meng Fuling is whimsical. In the past, Gourd always poured cold water on her, but now it is Steward Lu.

He said: "Growing lotus root is not an easy task. What's the use of just sprouting? No one has been able to grow it in this dynasty. I don't believe that you can grow it with your little cleverness."

"If it grows out, you will be at my disposal without any complaints, okay?" Meng Fuling didn't care about Steward Lu's attitude, but smiled brightly instead.

However, when she said this, she kept smiling and looking at the gourd, which made the gourd's scalp tingle, remembering that she decided to grow lotus root at first, and he said that if she could grow it, so be it.

Now, Hulu regretted pouring cold water on her so actively at that time.

But Steward Lu didn't know what his general was thinking. Hearing what Meng Fuling said, he thought she was trying to show off his quick tongue, so he responded readily.

It wasn't until Meng Fuling personally drew up a deed that Housekeeper Lu knew that she was serious, but what was said was like water poured out, how could it be recovered?
So Steward Lu had no choice but to sign this contract. Not long after, he found out that he had sold himself. At that time, he regretted so much that his intestines were green. Of course, this is a story for later.

******
No one in the village is optimistic about Meng Fuling's planting lotus root, and they make fun of her both openly and secretly.

Many villagers would 'pass by' the lotus fields from time to time, peeping through the wooden fence.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the lotus leaves in the pit are growing faster. In just one month, the green lotus leaves will come out of the water, and the pavilion is like a cover.

I don't know which villager "passed by" and was shocked to see this situation first, and it didn't take long before it spread throughout the village.

Those who laughed at Meng Fuling before couldn't laugh any more, and even those who were quick-tempered were already thinking about how to curry favor with her.

If she really grows lotus root, it will be a very big deal, and she will not worry about making a lot of money.

If he can curry favor with her, even if he can't eat meat with him, he should share the soup, right?

However, some people want to take a shortcut and have other ideas.

Meng Fuling had no time to pay attention to the thoughts of the villagers, and was busy with the workshop while taking care of the lotus field.

Now the workshop has been expanded a long time ago. It not only makes potato vermicelli, but also makes instant noodles.

On this day, Little Winter Melon was lying in the cradle, babbling and talking "words" that only he could understand.

Meng Fuling sat at the kang table, and wrote with a pen that the lotus root was ripe, and how to sell it after digging it out, so as to get the maximum profit.

At this time, Hulu walked in, and said as soon as he opened his mouth: "Someone has come to propose marriage!"

"Ah? What did you say?" Meng Fuling was so focused on what he wrote that she didn't realize what the gourd said for a while.

"I said someone came to propose marriage!" Hulu frowned and repeated the original words.

Only then did Meng Fuling hear his words clearly, and she was very surprised, "Which family did you come from? Are you proposing marriage to me?"

In fact, she was surprised that if someone came to propose a marriage to her, why would Hulu's jealous face be so pale?As if it had nothing to do with me.

However, with his personality, it is impossible to joke about this kind of thing with her. In short, his reaction is not normal.

"You already have me!" Anyone who dares to propose marriage to her is courting death.

Seeing the gourd like this, Meng Fuling felt teasing and said, "We are not a real couple, so it doesn't prevent me from finding another man better than you."

When she said this, she forgot that the gourd failed to eat meat several times, and she was already full of anger.

He stared at her suspiciously, "I asked you to marry me, but you always pushed around, so that's the idea?"

Meng Fuling wanted to nod her head and say yes, but seeing his gloomy eyes approaching her, she had to swallow all her words, and asked with a dry smile, "If it's not me who proposed marriage, who is it?"

"Your mother!" Calabash said in a deep voice, approaching her, pushing her against the edge of the kang table, not allowing her any room to retreat.

Meng Fuling was so shocked by his words that she even forgot to push him away and asked in disbelief, "Is it true?"

"The matchmaker is still outside!" The implication was that he didn't lie to her.

Meng Fuling believed it a little bit, but after calming down, she was not surprised.

Mrs. Xue is only in her thirties, not considered old, and her charm is still there. It is normal for some people to look up to Mrs. Xue.

The most important thing is that her workshop is very profitable, and the lotus root can be considered to be grown. Naturally, many people want to get her idea.But due to the existence of the evil spirit gourd, he can only focus on Xue Shi. Didn't Zhu Laifu also plan to take Xue Shi as his concubine before?
The more Meng Fuling thought about it, the more anxious she wanted to go out to see what happened, for fear that if she didn't go out, Xue's ears were soft and her mouth could not speak, and she would be tricked by the matchmaker.

"Get out of the way, I want to go out and have a look!" Meng Fuling couldn't move the gourd, a little annoyed, she opened her mouth and bit his shoulder hard.

However, the gourd's skin was too thick, so at first he only let out a muffled grunt, but after that, no matter how much she bit it, he didn't say a word, and the gaze he stared at her became even more intense.

"Marry your mother off? She's annoying!" What Hulu wanted to say was that Mrs. Xue was not old enough to find a man to accompany her, but the meaning of the words changed.

Thanks to Meng Fuling's understanding of him, she didn't get annoyed with him, "You can marry as she wishes, I can neither force her nor stop her."

Hulu nodded, agreeing with her words, but the hand on her waist was a little restless.

"I said you are enough! Now there is—" Meng Fuling was extremely helpless.

She was just about to say that it's not the right time, when someone knocked on the door of the room, and Mei Xiang's anxious voice came, "Miss, it's not good! Ma'am was molested!"

Meng Fuling was taken aback when she heard that, what?Who was Xue Shi molested by?Aren't there only matchmakers out there?
