Chapter 9 Preparations before going up the mountain
Coming out of Aunt Zhao's house, Zhang Hao turned his head and walked along the muddy path in front of him towards the east of the village.

The east end of the village is the place where farm tools can be bought in the village.

He needs to go there to buy a handy knife.

After that, I have to go to the Ming shop at the south end of the village to buy the things used for worship.

……

After an hour of busy work, Zhang Hao returned home with the purchased things.

The sun is shining brightly and scorching hot.

Today is indeed a beautiful sunny day.

I looked at the time, it was only around ten o'clock in the morning.

Li Siyu is working in the field, and it will take some time before she comes back.

Zhang Hao put all his things in the ear room without haste, turned around and came to the yard, rolled up his sleeves, picked up tools, and continued to tidy up other rooms in the house.

Yesterday, he only cleaned up the main room and side room, and Li Siyu cleaned up the kitchen.

Today's task is to reorganize the other rooms in the courtyard and the small courtyard.

Looking at the huge yard and so many rooms, Zhang Hao sighed from the bottom of his heart.

It is indeed too wasteful for two people to live in the courtyard with three entrances.

After all, judging from the current situation, only two rooms are needed to sleep, and the rest of the rooms are empty.

But no matter what, this is also the ancestral property, the only thing left to him by his father.

He can't sell the house anymore, that would be really treasonous.

Without thinking too much, Zhang Hao grabbed the tools, turned around and entered the side room, and began to tidy up.

……

call.

Putting the packed garbage into a woven bag, Zhang Hao wiped the sweat from his forehead, saw that the clothes he had just changed were dirty again, and shook his head helplessly.

At this time, he heard movement at the door, and immediately followed the sound, and saw that Li Siyu was not wearing ancient Hanfu, but changed into ordinary coarse cloth clothes, holding the previous vegetable basket with one hand, and inside the vegetable basket were picking fresh vegetables.

"I'm back." Zhang Hao smiled: "Didn't you shoot a video today?"

Li Siyu is a self-media blogger. He wears simple ancient Chinese clothes every day, and shoots some videos about working in the fields, digging wild vegetables in the mountains, and cooking.

It has been in a tepid state, and currently has less than [-] fans.

But Zhang Hao knows that in just two years, Li Siyu's self-media account will be followed by more people, and his popularity will gradually increase, and his career will reach a rising stage.

In the next few years, Li Siyu quickly became the No. [-] Gufeng goddess on the Internet through shooting videos, and even some overseas short video platforms have tens of millions of fans.

That was the peak of her career.

But it was at the peak of his career that Li Siyu fell ill and left this world not long after he became ill.

Every time Zhang Hao thinks about it, he only feels pity, but also hateful.

It's a pity that Li Siyu had a great time, but died prematurely.

The hateful thing is that I am too useless, I can't cherish it, and I can't help her.

However, everything can be restarted now, and I have got rid of the depression, and there is still room for redemption.

Li Siyu shook his head and said: "No, I'm going to cook first, you...you can take a rest first, there is still time to clean up in the afternoon."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked into the kitchen skillfully, and started to get busy.

Zhang Hao still had a smile on his face, and his eyes followed her all the way into the kitchen.

Looking at the figure who was quickly washing the dishes and preparing lunch, he let out a long sigh of relief, and continued to pack up without taking a break.

……

Had lunch.

Li Siyu went back to rest in the main room, but Zhang Hao did not go to rest, but stood in the yard, raised his hands to cover the glare of the sun, squinted his eyes and looked up at the sky.

Now is the hottest time of day.

Even if he stood here without moving, he felt that the sweat all over his body was being drained uncontrollably.

It is said in ancient books that the hottest time of the day is the best time to temper the body, which can help the body to better expel impurities and toxins and keep the body in a good state.

For becoming a mountain walker, he is most worried about physical factors.

After all, his current body is not as good as Li Siyu's. With such a body, he really doesn't know if he can walk back.

Therefore, taking advantage of Gu Linglan and the straw sandals being made, he wanted to seize the time to improve his physical fitness.

Although it is useless to hold Buddha's feet temporarily, especially in the matter of improving physical fitness, a little improvement is still an improvement, and it is always beneficial.

Without hesitation, Zhang Hao hurriedly seized the time, recalling the method of tempering the body recorded in the ancient books, and practiced it not so skillfully.

I do not know how long it has been.

Zhang Hao only felt that the pores of his whole body were completely opened, and the clothes on his body were soaked in sweat several times. He panted heavily, stood still, and ended the practice.

He took the towel and wiped off the sweat on his face, turned his head slightly, and happened to see Li Siyu standing at the door of the main room, looking at him with doubtful eyes.

"Get up." Zhang Hao smiled.

Li Siyu came back to his senses and nodded lightly: "Well, I'm going to go to the ground first."

After finishing speaking, she carried the vegetable basket and the shovel on the side. When passing by Zhang Hao, she paused and asked softly, "Is there anything you want to eat tonight?"

"As long as you can do it." Zhang Hao didn't shy away.

Li Siyu was slightly stunned, his eyes dodged a little, as if muttering to himself: "Let's have chicken soup tonight."

Then, he raised his feet and walked towards the door without looking back.

"Well, then I'll wait for you to come back." Zhang Hao looked at her gradually leaving figure, and the smile on the corner of his mouth never restrained.

Judging from today, it seems that Li Siyu's impression of him has changed somewhat.

At least, it is no longer as cold as before.

This is a great progress!

As long as Li Siyu can keep seeing his changes, one day, Li Siyu will completely change his impression of him.

At that time, he will be with himself not only because of the agreement with his father, but also to repay his kindness.

To live this life again, he hoped that Li Siyu would marry him sincerely, regardless of any other factors, instead of being forced to marry himself still relying on the contract with his father.

There is an essential difference between the two.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao looked away.

These are not within the scope of his consideration for the time being. The most important thing to do at present is to prepare for walking the mountain.

After taking a short rest, watching the sun in the sky gradually tilt towards the west, and feeling that the air was no longer so poisonous, he took off his shirt, picked up his tools, and walked into the other wing.

……

As night fell, a starry sky shrouded the dome.

In the living room of the main room, warm, soft light drives away the darkness.

On the dining table, on a not-so-delicate plate, fried fresh vegetables were wrapped in lard and were shining, exuding a strong fragrance.

In the center of the dining table, in a large porcelain bowl, the surface is shiny with oil, the soup bottom is clear chicken soup, and evenly cut chicken pieces are immersed in it.

Zhang Hao and Li Siyu sat opposite each other, and the dishes and chopsticks were set in front of them, which was still the same as last night.

"Let's eat, the food should be cold in a while."

"Well, come on, drink more chicken soup to nourish your body."
