A leisurely life with Lingquan

Chapter 63
"Hey, Ah Mu, how did you hunt? Your skills are better than before." Helping to repair the house, Zhao Mu is also busy in it. He can do anything with his strength, and he knows how to learn from the sidelines. In this way, others looked at him like this and took the time to strike up a conversation.

Everyone in the village now knows that Zhao Mu and Li Xi will go to the mountains every night to lay traps and collect them the next day, and they also know that their family’s life is much better now because of these prey. A lot of people are jealous, and everyone has careful thoughts, knowing that this is the ability of others to live, and they shouldn't ask, but there are always a few who can't hold back, Zhao Muren is stupid, so he just wants to test it.

Zhao Mu is stupid, but he is not stupid. He always remembers what Li Xi said to him in his heart. The trap and bait cannot be disclosed to anyone. How could he say that? With a narrow mind, he will face questioning The man just blinked his eyes innocently: "I caught it."

"Just catch it, didn't you dig a trap? What kind of trap, the bait I laid was eaten, and I didn't catch a hair." Zhao Mu was talking to a middle-aged man, and he also looked at no one. Pay attention to come to inquire when you have time, because you are afraid that people will say that he tricked Zhao Mu to take advantage of it.

"I was caught." Zhao Mu bit this sentence to death, and didn't say anything else. The middle-aged man had no choice but to take him. Finally, seeing a few people looking towards him, he quickly shut up and said Zhao Mu sent it off: "All right, Uncle Dang didn't say anything, you go and get the lower tiles up, and fix this side before eating."

"Oh." It slid down neatly and simply lifted Watt up without any effort at all.

At noon, Li Xi and the third aunt really cooked a table of good dishes. The vegetables are all provided by the third aunt, while the meat dishes are her own. It is very good for a countryman to have meat on the table, so on this The quantity is less, but looking at the delicious meat on the table, the big guy also said again and again: "You're welcome."

"Datian, you go to the table." Li Xi was busy in the kitchen, and when he was serving dishes, he saw Uncle Zhao Shan's 12-year-old son Zhao Datian sitting on the verandah and busily said.

"No need for sister-in-law, I can eat here." Zhao Datian swallowed a mouthful of rice and shook his head.

The third aunt just came over, waved her hand and said: "Don't worry about him, you can eat some soon, and let those men eat by themselves."

"Third Aunt, should I go make some wine?" There are people in the village who make wine, and Uncle Li knows it, although he brews and drinks it himself, and it's all ordinary rice wine.

"No need, I think the food is just right." The third aunt shook her head, the food is already very good, it's just a house repair.

Li Xi still shook his head: "There aren't many dishes in the first place, so it's better to have some wine. I forgot earlier, so I'll call now."

Seeing that Li Xi took off his apron and was about to go out, the third aunt hurriedly stopped her and said repeatedly: "Don't go, you've been busy all morning, let my Datian go." Then she said to Zhao Datian who was having dinner over there : "Go get some wine for your sister-in-law."

"Hey." Upon hearing this, Zhao Datian wiped his mouth and stood up.

"Let me go, Datian is also tired, let him eat." Zhao Datian was picked up by his third aunt to help, but in Li Xi's opinion, this kid has done a lot, helping to lift mud, and moving bricks and tiles. Didn't even call.

"Don't spoil him, this year he also started to go to the field, and he is also an adult, what's the point of ordering some wine." The third aunt smiled and said indifferently.

Li Xi thought that there were still a few dishes in the kitchen that hadn't been fried, so he couldn't go away, so he took out a few pennies from his waist and handed it to Zhao Datian and said gently: "I'll trouble you, Datian, go to Uncle Li's house to make a pot. Cheng, come back and add some more meat for you."

"Thank you sister-in-law." Agreeing crisply, Zhao Datian ran out the door after taking the money.

A pot of homemade rice wine was worthless, Uncle Li insisted on not wanting it at first, but Zhao Datian was clever and insisted on giving two pennies, and when he came back to return the remaining one penny to Li Xi, he even talked about it.

"Datian did a good job, you can keep this money for yourself." Zhao Datian and Zhao Dahai don't look very much alike, and their appearance is similar to that of the third aunt. The 12-year-old boy looks a little dark and thin. Li Xi couldn't help touching him The head laughed.

"No, mother is not allowed." Zhao Datian shook his head quickly when he heard it, and then put the money on the kitchen stove before Li Xi could react, and quickly slipped away.

"This kid." Holding the money, Li Xi laughed and shook his head, and then shouted to Zhao Datian behind: "Tell your father to get you some more delicious food." Then he heard Zhao Datian's empty voice Should be.

"Xi'er." Zhao Mu ran in holding the bowl.

Li Xi took his bowl and poured him a bowl of soup: "Go back and eat."

"You didn't eat." Zhao Mu handed the soup back.

"I'm here to eat." Bai He glanced at him, and Li Xi started to eat with a bowl of rice. Men eat and drink, but women are not allowed to sit at the table. Originally, the host should greet guests at home, but how could Zhao Mu do that? So I invited the village head over. The village head's house is also busy recently. Next month will be Zhao Yuan's wedding day, so everything has to be prepared.

"Someone asked me how to hunt today." Zhao Mu suddenly said while drinking the soup, looking up.

Li Xi stopped eating, narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "Did you say that?"

"En." Nodding, Zhao Mu continued when Li Xi was about to change his face, "I said I caught it."

"Uh." The corner of his mouth twitched, and Li Xi asked uncertainly, "Just say he was arrested."

"Yeah, I caught it."

"Good boy, so smart." Satisfied, he stroked Zhao Mu's head, it seems that they are really enviable and jealous every time they return home with a full load.

When repairing the house, the two rooms on the west side where they slept were first repaired, and the things in the room were also moved to the big room on the east side. Li Xi and Zhao Mu also rested there at night, and waited until the west room was repaired. , moved things back, and then repaired the east room, so that the two of them would not have no place to sleep.

It took a total of three days to repair the house at home before it was completely finished. I only invited people to eat twice a day, and I didn’t pay much money after calculation. However, there were no prey to sell at home these days, and they were all eaten. Of course, there was also Li Xi. In order to deceive others, he restrained himself a little.

Thanks to the third aunt's reminder, within two days after the house was repaired, it rained continuously for two or three days. They slept until midnight and got up in the middle of the night to pick up basins to catch water. Now lying in the warm bed, listening to the rustling sound of the rain hitting the window outside the window, they feel extra slack.

As soon as the rain stopped, Li Xi and Zhao Mu went to the field to see that the wheat had sprouted, yes, weeds had also grown, it seemed that we had to find time to hoe the field, the early rice seedlings in the field could be planted, and we were going to be busy again .

The weeds on the two acres of land have just grown. Li Xi feels that the work has to be done quickly, so that people can relax. If a little work is done, there is no need to accumulate. It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to grow crops. When someone hoeed the field, she took Zhao Mu to pull weeds in the field.
