"Where did you go last night? Don't you know we just got married yesterday?"
As the sun began to set and the sky grew darker, the man who had been missing for a day and a night finally entered the room.
Liu Meihua questioned him angrily.
"Where else could we go? Gangzi drank too much yesterday, so after taking him home, we went straight to his house to sleep."
Feng Ergou casually told a lie.
"You slept at his house last night, so what about today? Don't you know you're a married man with a wife? Besides, I waited for you all night last night."
Feng Ergou scoffed: "Why are you meddling so much, woman? I used to sleep at Gangzi's house all the time, and my mother never said anything."
Hearing him talk about the past, Liu Meihua felt a lump in her throat.
He used to be so eager to come and find her to go into the woods.
They had just gotten married.
He wasn't home yesterday, and she lay alone on the wooden bed that Feng Ergou had slept on for over twenty years, surrounded by his scent.
They haven't been intimate for a long time since they found out she was pregnant.
Last night, she was surrounded by an overwhelming aura of hormones that kept drawing her in.
But the man didn't come home all night, and she tossed and turned, unable to find satisfaction.
Now that the man had finally returned, she took a deep breath and suppressed her anger.
"Brother Er Gou~ We didn't have time yesterday... How about we make it up today..."
After saying that, she unfastened the knotted clasp around her neck with one hand and hooked the man's waistband with the other, intending to pull him towards the bed.
Today, she specially changed into the red floral dress she had bought before but hadn't been willing to wear.
She even applied face cream to her face and neck.
To everyone's surprise, Feng Ergou didn't react at all and unconsciously covered his nose.
"What's that smell? It's so strong!"
He impatiently pulled his hand away from hers.
"It's not even completely dark yet, can you stop being so suffocating? Don't you even look at your own condition? Besides, I just got back. I'm exhausted and don't want to move."
"Also, don't call me for dinner, I'm going to take a nap."
After saying that, he lay down on the bed without paying any attention to his newlywed wife standing behind him with her clothes wide open.
Looking at the man who used to be extremely enthusiastic about this matter, Liu Meihua realized that he actually wanted to sleep now that she had brought it up first.
Or is this how all married men are?
"You're not interested in me anymore, Feng Ergou? Stop playing dead! Tell me honestly, where did you go last night?"
She immediately reached out and started to pull him away.
Feng Ergou got impatient with her nagging and irritably pushed her onto the bed.
"You're pregnant and still can't settle down? You're so promiscuous? You can't live without a man, can you?"
Having said that, he directly ripped off the red fabric, not wanting to see her aggressive expression.
He didn't even take his pants off, he just unbuttoned the front...
Then they hastily finished the task.
Liu Meihua didn't react at all throughout the whole process.
After all, it usually only takes fifteen minutes.
Now, it's... over...
it's over?
She watched as the man pulled up his pants, rolled over, and lay down.
Even while she was still in a daze, snoring could be heard coming from the bed.
Liu Meihua: ...
...
The farm work in the fields has been mostly done, with only some routine weeding remaining.
Feng Dabing had an idea and began to call on everyone to go up the mountain to reclaim wasteland.
After several surveys, Feng Dabing identified several suitable locations for planting.
The rest of the area is flat.
With just a little clearing of weeds, removal of boulders, and a bit of turning over the soil, planting crops will be a breeze.
However, one of the wastelands is located on the mountainside of Fengjia Village.
The terrain there is higher than elsewhere, the road up the mountain is steep, the geology is hard, and there are many loose rocks.
He hadn't originally planned to consider that area, but given that after two consecutive heavy rains, all the low-lying areas had lost their harvest.
He had finally found a few plots of wasteland suitable for cultivation, and he didn't want to give up any of them.
Wherever there is arable land, I just want to encourage everyone to cultivate it.
But this place is only halfway up the mountain.
Several young men walked for more than two hours to climb the hillside, and swung their hoes more than a dozen times, but the ground did not budge.
It was the height of summer, and the mountainside was even hotter than the foot of the mountain. The man was putting in a lot of effort, but the land wasn't cooperating.
Every blow undermines a person's confidence.
After that, no one wanted to come anymore.
Even though Feng Dabing offered a full work point for clearing 100 meters of wasteland, no one was interested.
Everyone knows that the geology here is difficult to cultivate, and it takes four hours to go to and from work.
Even if you swing a hoe here for half a day, it's hard to say whether you can turn over ten meters.
In this situation, no one wants to come and waste their time.
Having no other choice, Feng Dabing could only look at Yan Xiao repeatedly, hoping that he would step forward on his own initiative.
In this way, the matter of clearing land halfway up the mountain can be settled.
But to his surprise, the man seemed not to have received his signal at all.
He sighed several times, his hands behind his back, looking worried.
Normally, when he lays this out, it's something that others are unwilling to do, and Yan Xiao always takes it on willingly.
Moreover, he felt that what others couldn't do, Yan Xiao could definitely do without any problem.
He had glanced at Yan Xiao several times, but the other party still hadn't made any move.
This troubled him.
That brat really did find a wife from a big city; he's living off her and has no ambition whatsoever.
