Descendants of Pangu in the Great Desolation

Chapter 74 Leaving Li's House

Although Situ Jing and I saw someone at home chopping firewood, if we were to do it ourselves, the difficulty would not be so great.Situ Jing was afraid that the ax for chopping wood would be too heavy, so he took the initiative to undertake the heavy task of chopping wood, and asked me to help him chop wood.Although Situ Jing made a decent appearance, he was still too far behind when he really started to use his hands. He either split the firewood into a big one and a small one, or split it off and only chopped off a little debris.Situ Jing was busy for a long time, but one of the firewood was not chopped out, and several blisters appeared on his hands.As soon as I saw that this was not a solution, I prepared to do it myself. I grabbed the ax from Situ Jing's hand and struck at the firewood standing in front of me. Effect, when I know this experience, the firewood in front of me has become a pile of sawdust.With the lessons learned from this failure, I will know what to pay attention to when I chop firewood again. Although the chopping is not a rule, at least I haven't chopped good firewood into sawdust.Situ Jing saw that I could master the trick of chopping firewood so easily, but I was in a trance, and I was in a trance when I heard it.As a result, it turns out that I have heard too many good words, and I will definitely be proud. The first ax after Situ Jing finished boasting, let me strike the ground an inch away from the firewood. I was so angry that I immediately ordered Situ Jing, I must give the woodcutter I shut up, or I'll take the ax and chop him up for a stick.Not to mention that this sentence is really useful, in order to save his own life, Situ Jing never said a word again until I chopped enough firewood.

After I finished chopping firewood, Axiu saw that I had done a good job, so she rewarded me for taking a rest. When Situ Jing wanted to go to the courtyard with me for a rest, Axiu grabbed his collar and dragged him to the courtyard well. Beside him, he was given a difficult task: peeling potatoes.Seeing the scene where Situ Jing was peeling potatoes with his mouth shrunken, I had a deep understanding of Confucius' saying "Only women and villains are hard to raise". At this moment, I decided not to mess with women as a last resort, especially A woman who can be met anytime, anywhere.

After half an hour, Father Li and Niu'er came back, followed by Xu Lu and Qi Shun who were carrying bamboo baskets. Seeing Xu Lu's happy face, I knew that he must have found a chance to get close to Niu'er, and also It didn't bother Niu'er.I got up and came to Xu Lu's side, squatted down and whispered in Xu Lu's ear: "Xu Lu, did you have some unusual relationship with Niuer, please tell me." Xu Lu saw I was a little embarrassed to say this, and said, "Master, what is the unusual relationship? I just chatted with Niuer on the boat." I looked at him carefully and said, "Look at your expression. Don’t want to just chat for a few words, tell me honestly what happened, or I can ask Niu’er, then you will become passive, think about it.” I stood up and walked slowly in Niu’er’s direction. walk.Before I could take three steps, Xu Lu dragged me aside and said to me: "Master, can I say it's okay? Don't ask Niuer, okay?" It’s true, he really thought I would ask Niu’er, but I have already achieved my goal so I don’t plan to tell him, I just want to go to the house and finish drinking water.

It turned out that Xu Lu's face was full of joy because on the boat, Niu'er almost fell into the lake in order to catch fish, but was caught by Xu Lu who was watching, so she didn't end up falling into the lake.This timely grasp changed Niu'er's attitude towards Xu Lu a lot, and she even took the initiative to chat with him. The two of them had a great time on the boat.If I'm not afraid that the girl who was nice to me just now will be upset and ignore me from now on, I think Xu Lu may have already sent his first kiss over and unilaterally settled the marriage.

"Yellow Deer, come and help me?" I was just asking Xu Lu if he had thought about what to do next, Niuer yelled at Xu Lu softly, Xu Lu looked back and waved to him My little girl, I don't know whether I should go there immediately to help her, or stay where I am and stay with me, so I suddenly lost my mind and stood there blankly.As soon as I finished watching Xu Lu was really fascinated by the girl, how could I hinder my brother's happiness, I patted Xu Lu on the shoulder and said: "Hurry up, such a good opportunity doesn't come often." Xu Lu shouted to Niu'er: "Niu'er, I'll go right away" and turned around to give me a laugh, then walked towards Niu'er.

After a while, the son came back with two jars of old wine in his left hand and an oiled paper bag in his right, and said to Ajuan who was washing fish in the courtyard, "I'll get the fish, Ajuan. You take the wine in and scald it. There are two three-yellow chickens wrapped in this paper, and they are also cut out for lunch." Ajuan took the things in Shengzi's hand and asked, "Where did this chicken come from?" Shengzi said, "This is a gift from shopkeeper Li. Hearing that my father has recovered from his illness, he greeted Master Sun for the three yellow chickens, saying that it was to nourish his body."

Father Li, who was sitting in the yard smoking a pipe, heard Shengzi say this and asked: "Shengzi, did you tell shopkeeper Li about Huang Hai and the others?" Ajuan carried the wine and chicken into the kitchen, and Shengzi turned to Father Li Said: "I told shopkeeper Li, shopkeeper Li said that you, old man Li, would dare not refuse to do what he said no matter how courageous he is, lest their aquatic products be out of stock when he gets it, and his inn will not be able to keep." Father Li Hehe smiled and continued to smoke the dry cigarette.

A quarter of an hour later, Granny Li shouted: "The family's meals are all ready, it's better to eat in the courtyard." Father Li looked at it and said, "It's better to eat in the courtyard, the room is too small It's inconvenient." Granny Li nodded and said, "Okay, clean up the stone table in the courtyard and prepare to serve." When Situ Jie and Xiaoyou heard that dinner was about to be served, they came to the table and put the food on the table. The teacups, teapots and some dried fruits were brought into the house for help, and the stools were placed on the stone table from the house.Father Li was so happy to see it, and said: "Don't look at these two dolls who are young, they really have nothing to say when they do their work. My old bones haven't moved yet, and they have already cleaned up the table. Really. Good boy, I love you so much." Seeing that Father Li liked children so much, I said, "Father Li and the others are only so honest and well-behaved in front of outsiders, and they are very naughty behind the scenes. When your little grandson is born, you Got it, I will definitely turn around your busy schedule then."

At this time, Granny Li came out of the kitchen with hot old wine and said, "It's the old man. When A Juan's baby is born, there will be plenty of time for you to hurt. I'm afraid you will make the baby cry and worry." Father Li said: " Annoyed? I won’t be bothered if I cry every day, I’ll just be happy every day.” I said from the side, “If Mrs. Li gives birth to a girl, won’t you be bothered?” Mrs. Li saw me He said with a smile: "Then why, no matter whether the baby is a boy or a girl, it is the root of our old Li family, so why bother. Anyway, they are still young when they have children, and they have plenty of energy. If they work harder a few times, they will give me He gave birth to a fat grandson." Granny Li patted Old Li on the shoulder and said, "You old man, what are you talking nonsense in front of the child, go wash your hands and eat." Old Li smiled and stood up and went Walking to the well, Granny Li also turned and walked to the kitchen.

After a while, all the kung fu dishes were served, including the three-yellow chicken brought from shopkeeper Li, the fragrant braised carp that Mrs. Li went to salvage and stew first, and the fresh vegetables grown by Li's own family. There are meat and vegetables on the table, rich in nutrition.Old man Li picked up the jug and was about to pour it into the glass in front of me. Axiu hurriedly reached out to stop him and said, "Father Li, my cousin is still young and doesn't know how to drink." Old man Li said with the wine jug: "It's almost 14 years old and still young. My son drank his first glass of wine when he was ten years old, but he passed out because he didn't drink enough."

Seeing that Father Li was so forthright, I said to Axiu: "Sister Axiu, it's okay. Today, Father Li is happy, so I'll have a drink with Father Li. One cup, if you drink too much I'm afraid you'll get drunk. Let my brother accompany you to have a few more cups." Father Li said with a smile: "It's better for Huang Hai to be refreshed, come and drink, let's have a drink together." The words just said After Wan Li's father picked up the jug and was about to pour wine into my glass, I couldn't bear it, so I took Li's jug, got up and poured a glass for Li's father, and then gave it to me. Granny Li also poured a glass, and then poured another glass for Sheng Zi, Situ Jing, A Xiu, Xu Lu, and Qi Shun.Ajuan was pregnant, Niu'er was a daughter, drinking too early was not good, Situ Jie was still young, and Xiaoyou had no interest in drinking at all, so she just passed in front of them.Finally, I poured it for myself, held up the wine glass and said to everyone: "Father Li, Po Li, Brother Shengzi, Sister-in-law Ajuan, our brothers have been bothering you a lot these days, so Huang Hai borrowed flowers to present Buddha, and use this glass of water and wine to toast you all." A glass. Huang Hai will do it first, as a respect." I raised my neck and drank the wine in the glass.The strength of the old wine was too strong and I drank too much. It was so spicy that I almost vomited it out. Seeing that I was choking, Axiu hurriedly picked up a piece of Potato made by Li Po and stuffed it into my mouth. That reduced the spiciness in my mouth.Seeing me so boldly, Father Li raised his glass and said: "Since Huang Hai has done it so readily, how can we lose to a 14-year-old doll? Let's toast." Everyone raised their glasses and drank from the cups in their hands liquor.
