Notes on Leisurely Living in the Farm

Chapter 26

Although Yiyou's family didn't say much after they got a bargain, there is no impenetrable wall in the world.After one night, everyone knew what happened in the Shen family's ancestral house.In this way, the ownership of the field is known to everyone.

There are different opinions. Under the deliberate instigation of Erbo's family, some people think that their family is domineering.But no matter how fierce the outside rumors were, they would never talk about it face to face.No matter what others say, Yiyou's family is happy and quiet.

Picking up a sunny day that was easy to trade, Shen Fuxiang brought the cattle back.Just like the land allocated to them by their uncle, the old ox's fur is dull, and it can be seen that it is an old ox.

"An old cow is better than nothing, and besides, it's stable enough to pull a plow."

With Yiyou's persuasion in this way, Shen Fuxiang and Li Shi were equally convinced.Their family had little land, and the extra ten mu of dry land was mostly saline-alkali land, and only one-twelfth of the land could be cultivated.The pressure didn't increase much, but the old cow was more capable than a strong man. In general, the burden on the shoulders of the family was much lighter.

From then on, Yiyou had another job, going down the mountain to raise grass and feed the cows every day.Shen Fuxiang set up a cowshed while he was free.He has always been dexterous. He cut down four branches from the mountainside, dug four holes and put them in the yard, and put a grass roof on them, which became a cowshed.

After half a month, the rumors gradually dissipated, and the family's life returned to calm again.Changsheng, who had been bored indoors due to recuperation, was allowed to go out again.Seeing his own old scalper, he immediately ran over with joy.

"kisses……"

Like a cow braying, he is more cheerful than a tit in the forest.The sound attracted Shunzi, and together with Mu Yu, who had been coming to Shen's house to play, the three of them circled the bull ring, chattering and chatting happily.

"Sister Erya, I want to braid the ox's tail." Shunzi asked.

"Pigtails must look good." Chang Sheng followed suit.Mu Yu was the most sensible, and he didn't speak, but his eyes showed desire.

Yiyou was helpless, stepped forward and pulled the oxtail, and quickly backed away.Just like that, she was lucky enough to be glared at by a bull's leg.

"ah."

The originally happy children scattered like birds and beasts, and then gathered behind her, showing concern.Changsheng put on a bitter face and wanted to cry, he hurt his sister again.

"elder sister……"

There was a cry in the little guy's voice, how could Yiyou not know what he was thinking.Turning around and stretching out her arms to enclose all three of them, she squatted down to look at them.

"I'm fine, but Changsheng and Shunzi have to learn from Brother Yu, think before doing things."

Changsheng nodded, not only was his sister not angry, but she also reasoned with him so gently.In the future, he must use his brain more, at least not to be confused by Chunsheng again.

"Okay, you guys play first."

Letting go of the three of them, Yiyou carried the burden on her back, stepped out of the fence and walked up the mountain to the west.Out of the corner of the eye, he glanced at the children in the courtyard. This time they did not approach rashly, but started an adventure game around the cowshed.

"Shunzi, don't touch the cow's tail. If you touch it, the cow won't bark, but will kick people."

Changsheng pulled Shunzi, and Yiyou smiled knowingly when he heard this.In his previous life, Changsheng had been excluded all the time, and he had a low self-esteem.Now with her enlightenment and Mu Yu and Shunzi's company, his concealed light began to bloom slowly.Her younger brother should be much happier than in his previous life.

Along the way, the wheat seedlings have pulled out their branches.The wind blows the wheat waves, bringing a fresh breath.

The wheat seedlings become thinner as you go in, until it becomes a saline-alkali land with only weeds growing.Next to the salt-alkali land is a pile of white stones, and she comes here frequently these days.Taking advantage of this time, she traveled to every corner of the stone pile, brought back quite a few, boiled water and divided them into four types along the way.

The ones that are slightly black on the corners are of the worst quality, and the higher you go, the better the stones inside.The innermost white stone carries the mountain stream and has been washed by spring water for many years. The whole body is as white as jade, and the quality is the best.

But now her buns only use the second-best buns, and she only keeps the few good ones for her own daily use, and mixes the rest with some miscellaneous stones to make them less conspicuous, and save them for future use.

"Sister Erya, I'll help you carry grass."

Coming back from hugging grass again, she happened to meet Hu Zi again.The first time Yiyou didn't doubt it, but she met him every day for half a month, no matter how dull she was, she knew the other party's intentions.

"It's not heavy, I'll do it myself."

Tactfully refusing, she hurried home without stopping.

"Just give it to me."

As soon as Huzi was in a hurry, he started to grab it, Yiyou ducked to the side, tripped over a tree stump by the side of the road, and fell down involuntarily.

"Be careful."

Yiyou supported her with her hands, and was about to get up when a heavy blow came from her back.Caught off guard, she fell to the ground.The grass behind her fell on her lips, and some Ququcai still had a milky fragrance.

But now she has no time to appreciate these, the heavy weight on her back, she knows it is a tiger without even thinking about it.Although Dai Viet's folk customs are open, it does not mean that he can assume such an ambiguous posture in broad daylight.

"Sister Erya, are you okay?"

Huzi's anxious cry came from beside her ear, and she said angrily, "As long as you get up quickly, I'll be fine."

"Oh."

There was a panic on her back, and she felt the pressure increasing.

"What's going on, you can't afford to leave this meeting?"

Huzi's voice was a bit husky: "My feet are entangled in the belt, and I can't get up."

Yiyou hammered down the tree stump, and began to untie the strap with both hands.She fastened it with a slip button, and it would come off as soon as you pulled it out.After undoing it twice, she supported the tree stump and waited to use her strength to climb out.

Seeing that he was about to be liberated, an unbelievable voice suddenly came from his ear: "What are you doing?"

The pent-up breath dissipated immediately, and she fell powerlessly on the tree stump.Who can tell her why Cheng, who has always been pampered, appears here.At this hour, shouldn't she be sitting cross-legged on the kang of Shen Jiazu's house, ordering tonight's meal by hand?

"Second aunt, come and help me, I'm stuck."

Many thoughts swirled in her mind, but in the end she still decided to stay the same in response to all changes.She is frank and frank, so she is not afraid of Cheng's gossip.

"Oh my god, Erya, you...you and Huzi, how could you be like this."

Cheng covered her mouth and looked like she was lying on the bed.Seeing her like this, Yiyou sighed, and her heart regained the calm before the battle of wits and courage.She moved to the side little by little, and she regained her freedom with only four or five strokes.After finishing her clothes, she didn't pick the grass from her hair, but helped Huzi untie the cloth strips wrapped around his feet.

"Second aunt, why are you here?"

Cheng pursed her lips, serious but full of unharmonious worries: "Er Ya, you are too careless. Fortunately, I saw it today. Don't worry, Second Aunt will never talk nonsense."

Hu Zi was a little puzzled: "What are you talking about?"

Yiyou narrowed her eyes, and then resumed her light smile: "Second Aunt said, we two are having an affair here."

As soon as this remark came out, Huzi's face quickly turned crimson, while Cheng was taken aback.Huzi hangs around behind Erya's butt every day, and all the talking children in Yunlin Village know what he means, but Erya obviously doesn't like Huzi.

As long as today's cheating is real, Erya will have to marry Huzi.With her high spirit, she might be unhappy for the rest of her life if she gets married.If you don't marry, you will completely offend Butcher Zhou's family.Without Butcher Zhou's meat, their steamed stuffed bun business would not be able to run smoothly.

No matter what, it can make up for the big loss she suffered half a month ago.But she never expected that Erya would say it so bluntly, which actually blocked all her escape routes.
