Perfect pastoral life

4 Bumblebee

Although it is not easy to make money in my hometown in a remote area, it is not impossible. As long as I make full use of various resources in my hometown, use the right method, and be lucky enough, it is not too difficult to earn money for house repairs in a short period of time.

Although Chen Mu’s hometown is economically backward, it has favorable geographical conditions and rich resources of mountains, rivers and trees. Longdong Village is surrounded by rolling mountains, and the turbulent Qingshui River winds in the canyon. Medicinal materials, wild small animals, and fish and shrimps in Qingshui River are swarming. As long as you can endure hardships and work hard, you can find a source of income when you go to the mountains and rivers.

Wang Fugui moved everything into the house, turned around and said to Chen Mu;

"Muzi, I looked at it just now. The stove in your house can't cook at all. Why don't you live and eat at my house for a few days, and I'll cook for you myself."

Chen Mu just laughed; "Fugui, you can cook, that's a rare thing."

Wang Fugui said: "What's so strange, who told me that I don't have a wife, if I don't cook, I will starve, damn it."

"Then why don't you hurry up and find one, because your mother didn't tell you that she wanted to hold a grandson?"

"Muzi, don't hurt me." Wang Fugui said with a bitter face, "My mother urged me to find a wife every three days, but you said where to find me, and the daughter-in-law didn't go to the mountains to collect medicine. Can you find it if you look for it? I also know that other girls don’t like me as long as I look like it. What do you want me to do?”

Chen Mu smiled; "If you can't find it, you have to find it, don't you want to become the next five-guarantee household in Longdong Village?"

"Bah, bah, go to his mother's five-guarantee household. I don't want to die like Zhao Lanzi and no one will collect his body. But you said Muzi, why is it so hard to find this daughter-in-law? A good girl is being bullied by pigs."

When Fugui talked about Lanzi Zhao, it reminded Chen Mu of his dog, so he changed the subject and asked, "Fugui, didn't you say that Lanzi Zhao's dog is left alone, his dog is still in the village, right? "

"Where else can you go if you're not in the village?" Wang Fugui said, "Muzi, go to my house for lunch first, and I'll take you to find a dog after eating. The dog has not been fed for several days, and it has become a wild dog. It is already hungry Get thinner."

Chen Mu nodded, thinking that he couldn't cook at home anyway, so he went to Wang Fugui's house for lunch.

After lunch, Wang Fugui brought two quilts from home, and Chen Mu briefly cleaned his room on the second floor, and spread the quilts brought by Fugui on the bed, so that they could live in at night.

After tidying up the room, Chen Mu started to tidy up the house.

A lot of tiles on the roof were blown off by the wind. He found new tiles, climbed up to the roof with a long ladder, and repaired the holes in the tiles. After cleaning and repairing the house, Chen Mu borrowed it from Wang Fugui's Come get the hoe and clear the yard of weeds.

By three o'clock in the afternoon, the house and yard were almost tidied up. Although the house still looked dilapidated, the whole yard was completely new, much neater and cleaner than before.

After everything was taken care of, Wang Fugui planned to take Chen Mu to Zhao Lanzi's house in the east of the village to find a dog, but Chen Mu was not in a hurry. He wanted to go to the hillside to see his parents' graves when he got home, so he left the village alone. Head to a hill not far from the village.

The weather was fine and the sun was shining brightly. After a while, Chen Mu came to the top of the mountain, where the graves of his parents were located.No one has taken care of it for so many years, and grass has grown overgrown around the tomb. He came with a sickle, cleared the weeds on the tomb, burned a few sticks of incense in front of the tombstone, knocked his head a few times, and planned to return.

All the way down the mountain, he saw a pile of new graves standing not far from the roadside. He didn't pay attention to it when he went up the mountain just now. Seeing that the pile of graves looked brand new, could it be the grave of Zhao Lanzi who died not long ago?

Thinking about it, Chen Mu crossed a small road, planning to go and have a look.

When he came to the cemetery, Chen Mu was shocked by the scene in front of him. He saw a golden-colored big yellow dog squatting in front of the tombstone. , dying.

Chen Mu was taken aback, could this dog belong to Lazy Zhao?
It's almost inseparable. I didn't expect that this is such a loyal dog. It's unbelievable that the owner will never leave and wait in front of his cemetery after his death.

Chen Mu smiled slightly. He fell in love with this dog, so he walked towards it slowly.

Seeing someone approaching, the big yellow dog didn't respond, but just stared at the person in a daze.

Chen Mu walked a few steps closer, slowly squatted down in front of the big yellow dog, and then stretched out his hand to stroke its head.

It was also strange, the dog started to wag its tail at Chen Mu as if it was familiar to him, which made Chen Mu happy. He patted the dog's head and said;

"What a good dog, my name is Chen Mu, what's your name?"

As soon as the words were finished, the big yellow dog's tail wagged even harder, and a dog's face even came close to Chen Mu's. It made a moaning sound, as if it saw its owner.

This dog is so friendly and friendly, Chen Mu was overjoyed, he immediately decided to adopt this big yellow dog, so he stood up excitedly and said to the dog;

"I see you have a golden retriever, um, I'll call you Bumblebee, would you like to go home with me?"

After Chen Mu finished speaking, he turned around and left, he wanted to see if it would follow.

Unexpectedly, the dog suddenly got up, humming, chirping, and wagging its tail to follow. Well, it seems that the dog has decided to follow Chen Mu.

Leading the bumblebee all the way home, Wang Fugui next door was drying some herbs picked from the mountains in his own yard. When he saw a big yellow dog behind Chen Mu, he was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out;
"I rely on Muzi. Isn't this Zhao Lanzi's dog? Where did you find it?"

"I found it on the hillside, and brought it back by the way."

Wang Fugui scolded, "Damn it made me look for dogs all over the village just now, and I ran up the mountain. Muzi, you're really good at it. How do you know it's on the mountain?"

"When I was going down the mountain, I passed by Zhao Lanzi's tomb, and I happened to see it." Chen Mu said casually, "By the way, Fugui, you still have leftovers in your house. This dog's chest is hungry. Eat a whole bowl of rice first."

"Okay, I'll bring the food over here."

Wang Fugui entered the house, and after a while, he took a broken bowl of food into Chen Mu's yard, and put the food under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in front of the house for the dogs to eat.

Wang Fugui put the food bowl away, called the dog over, and called a few times, but the big yellow dog was indifferent. Seeing that the dog ignored him, Fugui was a little discouraged for a while; "Muzi, this dog is not very obedient, why don't you kill it and eat it Meat counts as a ball."

As soon as he finished speaking, the big yellow dog seemed to understand people's words. Hearing that someone was going to eat him, his whole body exploded and barked at Wang Fugui.

Wang Fugui was startled; "Fucking Muzi, damn, this dog even threw at people when you gave it food. It seems that this dog is no good."

"This is a dog with human nature. You just said you want to eat it, but it will not attack you." Chen Mu smiled, "Fugui, bring the rice bowl here, and I will feed it."
