Pastoral Bamboo Fragrance

Chapter 43 The Daily Life of the Yang Family (1)
Li Zhu felt that there was something in Cai Qing's words, so she should have expressed her feelings. She remembered that Yang Yun said that Cai Qing's family seemed to be not harmonious, and she didn't know the specific situation.After all, at that time, she was only thinking about her own future and way out, how could she care about others?
After Cai Qing finished speaking, he concentrated on feeding the donkey.Holding a black brush in his hand, he combed the donkey carefully.The donkey kept stomping, laughing and rubbing against him affectionately.After combing the hair, he went to fetch water again, and after drinking the donkey, he began to clean the car body again.The noon sun in spring shone on him, and it also cast a layer of light on the donkey's mediocre coat color.

Seeing all this, Li Zhu felt inexplicably much better.Before Cai Qing turned to look at her, she turned and left holding the bamboo tube.

There was some change in the bamboo tube, and Li Zhu used it to buy a catty of pork belly, two catties of tofu, and a catty of wine.When she came back with her things, the donkey cart in front of the fence was gone.A man was busy by the rabbit nest inside the fence.

Li Zhu thought Yang Mo was there, she pushed the fence door and asked, "Brother, Cai Qing is gone?"

The man replied without raising his head: "I didn't leave, I stayed for dinner."

Li Zhu hummed, and after answering, he realized that the owner of the voice was Cai Qing, who was feeding the rabbit.

Li Zhu smiled at him, turned around and carried the things to the kitchen.

While receiving the things, Aunt Li scolded her for spending money indiscriminately, and at the same time wondered where she got the money from.

Li Zhu explained that it was earned by her hunting in the mountains and catching fish in the river.

Yang Yun was surprised. Her father, Yang Laoshi, couldn't hit anything in the mountains, and was almost injured by a wild boar once.

Li Zhu said: "I used a trap to steal the meat and oil cakes for Li Ji as bait. Maybe I was lucky and I caught it."

Aunt Li asked Li Zhu to deliver two bowls of sugar water to Cai Qing and Yang Mo.

At the moment the two are talking.

Yang Mo asked puzzledly: "Ah Qing, why did you stop me from returning Mao Er's family's betrothal gift?"

Cai Qing said: "You don't know Mao Er's person, although he is stupid, he is loyal. Since he promised you, he will definitely do it. If you press him again, it will appear that you don't trust him, and it will be counterproductive."

Yang Mo nodded, "It's still Ah Qing who is transparent, I didn't expect it."

Cai Qing smiled and said, "Without him, I just know Mao Er better."

Li Zhu put the bowl on the table, greeted him and left.

Yang Mo took a sip of water, and said sincerely: "Ah Qing is thanks to you today, otherwise..."

Cai Qing said with a smile: "No matter how polite you are, you're going to be an outsider. If I encounter this kind of thing, you will definitely help if you have the spare power."

Yang Mo said: "You really helped me too much." Yang Mo looked at Cai Qing, in fact, before his accident, the person who had the closest contact with him was not Cai Qing but a scholar of Wang Hua.His relationship with Cai Qing is a pure gentleman's friendship - as light as water.It should be said that Cai Qing is kind to everyone.After the accident, Wang Hua gradually moved away from Yang Mo.Instead, Cai Qing stepped forward, sent him to the hospital, and lent him money.Hearing that his family was going to sell the house, he ran around to find a suitable buyer, and sold the house without much pressure on the price, which solved his family's urgent need.

Li Zhu returned to the kitchen, and when he was near the kitchen door, he heard Yang Yun say in a low voice: "Mother, let's withdraw from the He family. I won't marry this kind of man."

Aunt Li said bitterly: "Wait and talk, if you want to retreat, you have to disgust them."

As soon as the two saw Li Zhu, they immediately changed the topic.

Yang Yun looked at the clothes on Li Zhu's body, they were obviously too small, and it was too hot to wear them now.

She said: "Mom, one of my clothes is too small, I'll change it to Xiao Zhu later."

Aunt Li said: "Change your body so that you can change your clothes."

Li Zhu walked over to light the fire.

Lunch will be ready soon. Today's meal is quite rich. There are fried pork with bamboo shoots, tofu with minced meat, and fried leeks with eggs. The staple food is steamed buns with Sanhe noodles.
