pastoral fragrance

Chapter 339
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the horn for harvesting crops will sound.This year's weather is hot and the temperature is quite high. During the summer drought, the farmers in the village have also paid attention to drought prevention. Now in this harvest season, the rice in the field is yellow and orange, and the full rice husks are decorated together. , forming a string of rice ears, bending the waist.

From the unreserved smile on the farmer's face, one can perceive that this year's results must be good.When the harvest season comes, Qiulin's family will be busier than others.Fortunately, there are many people in the house, so it is still busy.

After working for half a month, the rice was cut back from the field, spread on the open ground to let the sun dry, and then the ears of rice were knocked off with a flail, the millet was threshed, and put into the warehouse.This year's harvest is good. Qiulin's family harvested more than 1 catties of millet.The warehouses had to be adjusted several times before the rice was piled up.In addition to the work of harvesting rice, there are also things like harvesting herbs, picking persimmons, and digging lotus roots.Now that all these jobs are piled up together, it seems that the yard at home is small.

Qiulin thought that when he was done with his work, he would clear up the open space on the other side of the fish pond and use it for drying rice and herbs.Then widen the path from the fish pond to the village so that bullock carts can also pass by.You don't have to take the trouble to move the fish root or something back home, you can just put it on the bullock cart and transport it to the town, which saves trouble!
The more Qiu Lin thought about it, the more he felt that this would save a lot of effort, and he patted himself on the head, why didn't he think about it before?

After the autumn harvest was over, Qiulin had some free time.It's rare to be free, she made an appointment with Xia Yan yesterday to go to the town market together today.She has been so busy these days that she hasn't had a good time to relax. When she goes to the market today, she will have a good time to go shopping.

On an autumn morning, the entire Luoshui Village was filled with milky white mist that had not dissipated, and the crowing and barking of cocks and dogs from the east and the west could be heard from the bottom of my ears.After eating breakfast, Qiulin left Xiaoqing and Xiaohong behind.After being busy for so long, she hasn't been alone with Xia Yan for a long time. It's rare for her to go to the street together today, and she even wears two tails. Isn't this intentional to make herself suffer?

As soon as Qiulin pushed open the courtyard door, he saw a carriage settling in front of his courtyard door.Immediately afterwards, a handsome man jumped out of the carriage, and settled down in front of Qiulin, with a misty white mist behind him, making him look like a magnolia orchid, a jade tree, or a snowy pine.When Qiulin saw the visitor, he couldn't help smiling. "You're here, and I'm going out too!"

The corner of Xia Yan's mouth was smiling. At this time, a ray of early sun pierced through the mist and fell down. The pale golden sunlight fell on him lightly like a feather, making that handsome face elegant and dusty. A pleasing picture scroll.

"Hehe, that means we have a good understanding." Xia Yan said softly.

The four characters with a consonant heart are like sunlight penetrating through the mist, warmly spreading towards Qiulin's heart, and for a moment, Qiulin's heart is completely soft.Qiu Lin hooked her lips and smiled slightly, and got into the carriage with Xia Yan's support.

The two sat in the carriage facing each other, Xia Yan raised his eyes and said to the old man driving the carriage, "Let's go."

The old man driving the carriage responded, only to hear the whip hit the horse's back, and the carriage began to move forward.In the carriage, neither of them spoke, and a vague and awkward atmosphere spread between them.

It has been more than half a year since the last time the two of them sat face to face.At that time, there was Xiaoqing and Xiaohong by her side, so she didn't feel embarrassed.But now that the two of them were alone, Qiulin was a little nervous and didn't dare to look at the man sitting across from him.

Xia Yan seemed to see Qiu Lin's nervousness, and with a smile, he took the lead in breaking the embarrassing situation in the carriage. "Alin, there are grass clippings in your hair, I'll remove them for you!"

Qiu Lin was a little flustered when he heard this.She obviously took care of it when she went out, so how could there be grass?Probably the fallen leaves of the yellow horned tree in front of the door fell on his head?
Xia Yan moved closer to Qiu Lin, and put his hands on Qiu Lin's bun.The distance between the two was very close, and with Xia Yan's actions, it seemed as if he was holding Qiulin in his arms.Near Qiulin, there is a faint fragrance coming from Qiulin.In a daze, Xia Yan stopped his hands, and stared at the woman in front of him rather blankly.

I saw that her face, which was close at hand, was dyed with a faint blush, her brows were shy, her eyes were like autumn water, her lips were like cherries, her shy expression was like a water lily just about to bloom.Looking at those plump and dreamy cherry lips, Xia Yan felt his mouth dry all of a sudden, and wanted to lean in and kiss Fangze.

Because the two were very close, a strong masculinity rushed towards them at this moment, and Qiu Lin couldn't find things, north and south, because he was immersed in it.It seems that this is too ambiguous, right?An unnatural blush soon appeared on his fair face, Qiu Lin tilted his head, trying to push Xia Yan away with his hands. "I... just do it myself!"

After saying these words, Qiulin's heart was pounding like a deer, and red clouds were flying all over his face. "Ahem..." In extreme embarrassment, Qiulin pretended to have an itchy throat and coughed twice.He raised his hand to touch the bun with his hair tied up, and patted it a few times.At this moment, Qiulin's hand patted the unknown object, Qiulin was very puzzled, and reached out to touch it, it seemed to be a hairpin.

Qiu Lin glanced at Xia Yan in a daze, then reached out and took off the hairpin.This is a butterfly hosta.The butterflies on the hosta are exquisitely crafted and lifelike, and they look like they are about to fly.It feels warm and cool to the touch, and its body is moisturized and the water head is excellent. You can tell that this hairpin is not cheap at first glance!

Qiu Lin took a breath, and looked at Xia Yan with full expectation in his heart, "Brother Xia Yan, is this for me?"

Seeing that the blush receded on Qiulin's face, and her jade-like little face was filled with anticipation, Xia Yan blinked at her, "Idiot, didn't I give it to you?" It's just that he wanted to give Qiulin a surprise. , After she had worn the butterfly hosta all day, when she went home to wash and wash, she realized that the kind of surprise would be remembered by Qiulin for the rest of her life.It's just that all his plans were destroyed by Qiulin at this moment.But seeing Qiulin's beautiful and moving smile now, Xia Yan felt nothing to regret!
After hearing Xia Yan's words, Qiu Lin was very moved.Brother Xia Yan had also sent her a lot of things before, but they were all medicinal materials.And this jade hairpin is definitely of commemorative value and significance!At this moment, she also guessed Xia Yan's plan. He originally discovered this jade hairpin when he was going to let her go home to wash up, but he discovered it in advance.Thinking of this, Qiulin was deeply moved!With a sore nose, tears of joy fell down.

At this moment, she had long forgotten the awkwardness and embarrassment when the two of them got along just now, she let herself cry and threw herself into Xia Yan's generous and warm arms.What started as a whimper turned into a whimper. "Brother Xia Yan, I really... like it, thank you!" This is the first time Xia Yan has given her something in a real sense, and this jade hairpin is definitely a token of love.

Seeing Qiulin crying in his arms, Xia Yan felt a little pity in his heart, he hugged Qiulin and wiped away the tears from Qiulin's face one by one.He smiled and said: "I said, if you feel moved and want to repay, I don't mind."

Seeing Qiulin's extremely shy little face, Xia Yan smiled heartily.But she still refused to let her go, and said coquettishly: "A Lin, my hair is messed up, please help me to tie it up!"

Qiu Lin looked up, and sure enough, Xia Yan's hair was messed up. Hey, this is all a masterpiece of madness just now!Qiulin nodded, put aside the shyness just now, and came over to help Xia Yanwan with hair.The man's hair was easy to manage, so Qiulin soon tied it up for him.Looking at Xia Yan again, he cleared his throat on purpose, signaling him to straighten his coat.

Unexpectedly, Xia Yan didn't care about it at all, and smiled very darkly, and said as a matter of course: "A Lin, help me straighten my clothes."
