Chapter 9

The weather was fine that day, and He Tao had arranged several things.

The first thing is to clean up.

Fu Shi looked clean and alone, but in fact there were quite a lot of dirty places in the small hut.A crumpled undershirt was found under the pillow, a pair of dirty underwear was found under the bed, several clothes that had been out for an unknown amount of time were found in the box, and later He Tao found them in the utility room. A pile of dirty and unwashed shoes and socks.

He Tao raised his head and rolled his eyes at Fu Shi, and said firmly: "If you continue to behave like this in the future, I will never make clothes, shoes and socks for you. It's too wasteful. Thinking about it makes me feel bad, and I do it stitch by stitch. Come out, throw it away when you get dirty!"

Fu Shi hurriedly stated: "No, I bought these. If my wife made them, I would definitely not throw them away when they get dirty."

"Really not?"

"Of course not!" Fu Shi said proudly: "I have a daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law knows how to wash it, so why throw it away!"

He Tao pursed her lips to express her protest—why would you wash it with your daughter-in-law? What are you doing by yourself?
She doesn't want to wash thick cotton clothes in winter, her hands will all be cracked, right?
She looked down at her horrible hands, shook her head vigorously, she must take them back, even if she can't develop white and soft hands, at least they must return to the average level of the same age group!

How could Fu Shi know the sadness in He Taoxin, he was already tossing out the quilt.

"Daughter-in-law, do you want to remove the quilt?"

"Remove! A smell!"

Fu Shi held his nose suspiciously and sniffed: "No, daughter-in-law."

"It's all your smell!" He Tao said viciously.Hmm, the legendary masculinity?
Fu Shile: "Don't you have to smell like me, daughter-in-law, you also smell like me."

He Tao said that this guy accidentally poked into another field.

After a lot of trouble, the bedroom was finally cleaned. Looking at the pile of rubbish outside, He Tao deeply felt that there are really not many particular men in this world!This empty little broken house can hide so much rubbish. If you change to a bigger house, you can't just sleep on the rubbish dump?

"You burn a brazier in the house to remove the moisture, and put a brazier under the bed to roast the mattress and remove the cotton."

"Okay, daughter-in-law."

He Tao frowned and looked at Fu Shi.

"What's the matter, daughter-in-law?" Fu Shi scratched his head and smirked.

Ever since she called "Sanggong" yesterday, Fu Shi couldn't speak without the word "daughter-in-law". Was it on purpose?

This really made her guess right!Fu Shi did it on purpose.On the day of his marriage, he didn't have the real feeling of marrying a daughter-in-law. It wasn't until He Tao yelled that "sister-in-law" that he had the personal feeling that he was married and had a wife.The more you call the word daughter-in-law, the more you like it, and the more you call it, the more He Tao can remember that "she is already Fu Shi's daughter-in-law."This is Fu Shi's logic.

Unfortunately, He Tao felt that he had been molested repeatedly!
She bared her teeth at him viciously, and then ran to the kitchen to clean up.

He Tao first boiled a pot of hot water to wash the clothes, squatted in front of the house and rubbed them, beat them again and again, and finally cleaned all the dirty clothes—not including the two of them, of course. This body, if you take it off, you don't have to change into a thick cotton coat.During the second period, Fu Shi's task is to add firewood and firewood to boil hot water, repeat N times.

The house is packed and it's almost time for lunch.

He Tao finally cooks again. In this family, she is second in cooking skills, and no one dares to be the first!

Boiled a pot of rice, fried a piece of vegetable meat, and then cooked a winter melon soup, a meal is also delicious, at least Fu Shi kept boasting: "Daughter-in-law, the dishes you cook are really delicious!"

"Of course, it must be much better than yours!" Fu Shi's habit of cooking is that the staple food is rice, the dishes are rice, and the soup is also rice. In short, there is only rice!

"Daughter-in-law, your cooking is delicious, you can do it from now on!"

"You are so beautiful, you have delicious food every day."

After dinner, He Tao stood in front of the stove and boiled lard, while Fu Shi sat under the stove to add fire.He Tao recalled the matter of cooking, she felt that Fu Shi was hiding treachery and pretending to be honest, and he tricked her, and cooking will be her job again in the future!

After boiling the lard and filling a whole earthenware pot, He Tao started to stew the bone soup, chopped a hare, knocked out a stick bone, then threw it into the boiling water, put the lid on, and when the fire was vigorous, it was ready. Keep simmering.Fu Shi was still in charge of adding fuel to the fire, and had been sitting quietly under the stove.

"Fu Shi, stand up, and I'll make clothes for you."

Hearing this, Fu Shi stood upright obediently, and let He Tao touch her from top to bottom with a pair of small hands, and he remained petrified the whole time.

"Okay!" He Tao measured the size of each part, and sighed in his heart - he has a good figure!
Fu Shi let out a long breath of relief.

Seeing him relieved, He Tao was overjoyed: "It's as hard as a rock, I think it hurts to hold you to sleep at night!"

"In the past two nights, I have been soft, not hard!" Fu Shi said, "And you didn't say it hurts!"

He Tao looked at Fu Shi with some doubts—whether he really didn't know or pretended not to know, why did he always speak in a yellow way!

"Stone!"

"Hey!"

"... You called me wrong, Fu Shi, it's time for you to sit down!"

"I like it when my daughter-in-law calls it that." Fu Shi said with a smile, "It's so nice!"

"..." Didn't he really mean it?He Tao expressed great doubts.

Anyway, since that time, He Tao has been calling Fu Shi a stone.

People are inseparable from the stove, and Fu Shi stayed there all the time. He Tao went back to the house and cut the cloth. He wanted to start making it right away, but he was afraid that he could not do it well with the original owner's skills and wasted the cloth for useless work. So they dug out Fu Shi's torn clothes, piled them into a pile, moved a small stool and a low table under the stove, and sewed clothes next to Fu Shi.

"It's really cold," He Tao complained while familiarizing himself with the original owner's skills: "It will be even colder in a few days, and it will be freezing at night."

"It's okay, I'm here at night, I'll make sure to keep you warm!" Fu Shi assured.

"Aren't you cold? I see you've always covered yourself with a quilt, and you don't usually wear much." He Tao was surprised.To be honest, if Fu Shi hadn't been covering her these few nights, she would definitely have another high fever.

"I have never been afraid of the cold since I was a child. You may think that I wear less clothes, but in fact I am not cold at all." Fu Shi slowly explained: "And during the few years at the border, I feel less and less afraid of the cold. On the other side of Syracuse, the snow has accumulated thickly at this time, and the river is completely frozen with thick ice. After a few years, we get used to it, and sometimes we go down the river to fish in winter!"

"Going down the river in winter?! You are not afraid of freezing to death!" He Tao opened his mouth wide, and then thought: "Do people over there sleep in the same bed as us? Do they have a kang there?"

Fu Shi nodded: "Yes, there are also earth dragons, which are very warm when you enter the house. Almost every household has them."

"Do you know how to do it? Let's get a heated kang too! This way we can do embroidery work alive in the warmth." He Tao immediately began to imagine the days when there was a heated kang, and raised her head as she spoke. Let Fu Shi look at the feet: "Look, my feet feel like ice cubes even if they are on fire here!"

Fu Shi saw her little feet swaying, and grabbed them in the palm of his hand as soon as he stretched out his hand: "Then let me cover it for you!"

"Hey, let go!"

This time it was definitely molested!
He Tao hurriedly withdrew her feet, but Fu Shi directly hugged her waist, and then hugged her whole body in his arms.He Tao blushed, his heart beat faster, and he said in embarrassment and annoyance, "What are you doing!"

"Daughter-in-law, I just want to hug you, it's okay." Fu Shi pressed his lips against her earlobe, and his voice came into his ears along with his breathing. He Tao couldn't help shivering, and his whole body became limp.

"Daughter-in-law, I am very happy to hold you."

"You, stinky stone, let go of me!" He Tao didn't realize it. Although she said the words of refusal, her voice seemed to be coquettish, and her body didn't move to leave.

Fu Shi grinned with a brilliant smile, and said as if coaxing a child: "Daughter-in-law, don't make trouble, I'll hug you again, for a while..."

He Tao was obediently hugged by Fu Shi, and when she was hesitating whether she should also take the initiative to hug Fu Shi's waist, she suddenly heard a cry.

"Miss!"

He Tao immediately got out of Fu Shi's arms, and gave her a blank look: "You are the only one messing around! Fortunately, my younger brother didn't see it!"

Fu Shi lowered his head, with an annoyed expression on his face - why did this little brother-in-law come at such a time!

He Tao ran out to see that He Youliang and He Lian were standing in front of the house and waving at her.

"Why are you here?" He Tao felt both surprised and happy, and hurried forward to touch the heads of the two of them. He Lian was rubbing against her arms, while He Youliang lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Go into the house, it's freezing to death outside!" He Tao took one of them into the kitchen and said to Fu Shi with a smile, "This is younger brother He Youliang and younger sister He Lian."

"Big brother-in-law!" He Youliang and He Lian shouted in unison.

Fu Shi nodded cautiously: "Hey, I'll give you a stool."

"Don't pay attention to him, he's just as shy as a big girl!" He Tao pulled the two little ones under the stove to prepare them: "You warm up, and I'll get you something to eat."

Just as the bone soup was boiling, He Tao filled two bowls and gave each of He Youliang and He Lian a bowl, and dug out the snacks bought yesterday from the cupboard and put a bowl on the low table.

"It's delicious!" He Lian took a sip, and immediately smiled until her eyes narrowed into lines.

He Youliang also nodded, blew and took another big gulp, and then let out a long and comfortable breath.

"Sister, today was originally the day you went back home, but you didn't go back, so my sister and I came to see you."

When He Youliang said this, He Tao felt that there was something hidden about what He Fuguo was waiting on the road yesterday, so he asked He Youliang: "Did grandma ask dad to tell me and not let me go back?"

"You know?" He Youliang was surprised: "I thought father wouldn't tell you! Father often said that it is wrong for a son not to speak ill of his father, but to speak ill of his elders."

"I knew it as soon as I guessed it! It must be her!" He Tao raised her eyebrows: "But it doesn't matter, I don't care!"

"Eldest sister, you don't know yet, the second brother is getting engaged, and we want more sisters-in-law!" He Lian said with a smile while nibbling on pine nut candy.

He Youtian is engaged?It's not easy!Given the family background of the He family, and he himself has inconvenient legs and feet, he is actually engaged, which is really strange!
"Speaking of which, it's thanks to the elder sister that he got engaged!" He Youliang said with some disdain.

"Ah?!" He Tao's eyes widened: "It still has something to do with me!"

"Isn't that right? He wants to marry Wang Qionghua, and he wants a dowry of 20 taels. If he can't get it, he will ask grandma to promise you to his eldest brother-in-law, and take the dowry from his eldest brother-in-law to marry Wang Qionghua!"

Hello He Youtian!

Fortunately, she thought why Arita was a good person at the beginning, but she didn't expect, ah, she was good at stabbing knives in the back!A sinister, vicious, selfish villain who has read the sage books for ten years in vain!He Tao scolded He Youtian solidly in his heart.
