"Oh——" A rooster crowing came from afar. The light in the room was still dim. The man in the darkness opened his eyes. The clarity in his eyes did not look like someone who had just woken up. The man's eyes fell on the person who was still sleeping in his arms, and a subtle tenderness flashed in his eyes.

The door was closed gently, and a figure walked out.

Hearing the footsteps outside, even if the sound was light, the person in the room opened his eyes at the first time. Looking at the strange place, the memory of last night came back to his mind. Knowing where he was, Liu Baishu pushed away the man who was holding him tightly. "Well, it's still early, stay with me for a while." Wang Dahu hadn't slept so well for a long time. He wanted this man to sleep with him for a while. This bed was too comfortable, and holding this man in his arms made him feel so comfortable that

he didn't want to let go. "The general is up, let's get up too." Liu Baishu pushed the hand that was around his waist, but didn't push him away. His voice was still a little hoarse after waking up.

He didn't know how he and Wang Dahu had become the relationship they are today. Obviously, they are both men. They should marry a boy and have a few more children, not like now. He used to be panicked about their relationship. This man forced him and pulled him into it step by step.

The two have come this far, and have been through life and death together for so many years. Compared to their current relationship, this kind of affection between them is even deeper. This person can die for him without blinking an eye. He thinks he will never find another person who treats him as well as Wang Dahu. Liu Baishu can't imagine marrying a strange boy and spending his life with a strange boy. He followed his truest thoughts and stayed with Wang Dahu, willing to be submissive to this man. In the blink of an eye, many years have passed.

It doesn't matter whether the two are good or bad together. If you have to choose one person to live with, Wang Dahu is also fine. Except that they can't have children, they are no different from ordinary families.

In the end, Wang Dahu got up from the bed, and Liu Baishu followed him.

"Why are you up too?" Cao Gang came out of the bathroom and saw two people coming out of the room. The door of the next room was also opened, and Gan Weiqi also walked out of the room. Seeing that everyone was up, he smiled and said, "Good morning." It

was still dark outside at this time, with stars hanging in the sky. It was still early.

The air in the early morning was cool. Their house was outside the village, unlike in the village, where chickens crowed one after another at this time. The people in the house were still sleeping. Cao Gang went to see the child, and seeing that the child was not awake, he took a few people out.

At this time, Cao Xiangnan had just woken up. When he heard the dogs barking outside, he knew someone was coming. He walked over and opened the door. He didn't expect so many people to come, so he smiled, turned aside to let them in, and asked, "Why are you all here?"

Two dogs followed him. Cao Xiangnan patted the dogs' heads and asked the two dogs to recognize the people.

"I heard from Brother Gang that you are making food here, so we followed to help." Liu Baishu said with a smile.

On the way here, they had heard their general say that he was going to make food here, and he also heard the hidden meaning. Their general asked them not to call him general anymore, so they changed their words and called him Brother Gang so as not to reveal anything in front of others.

Now that they see their general married a boy and have children, their life is good. Based on his understanding of their general, their general is not a person who knows how to live. So many years have passed, and their general has not contacted them. Now that life is better, he wrote to them and asked if they are willing to come to his place, and they all came.

"Great, I am so happy to have so many helpers all of a sudden." Cao Xiangnan classified Liu Baishu and others as Cao Gang's people. Since they were found by Cao Gang, they are naturally trustworthy people. He is not afraid that these skills will be learned by others. It is just right to bring a lot of helpers to do the work, so as to avoid working himself to death.

—He was a little happy that there were so many more people working all of a sudden. This way, there would be more people to pick the fruit. Otherwise, there were still so many fruits at the foot of the mountain, and two or three of them couldn't really pick so many. In a few days, the fruits would all rot on the branches. Now that there were more people, they could pick them all up in a hurry. Those who made preserved fruits made preserved fruits, and those who made wine made wine. They all hurried to process these things. More

people meant more work and more money. Cao Xiangnan was not afraid of too many people now, but of too few people.

"The rice should be soaked first, and then ground into rice paste in the morning when making rice noodles, and then steamed. You will understand it after you experience it yourself." Cao Xiangnan led everyone to the kitchen. It was still dark at this time. He opened the lid and lit the oil lamp inside. The kitchen was bright all of a sudden.

"Bai Lian is still sleeping. I didn't call him." Cao Gang explained.

"Yeah, we have enough people here. Let him sleep later in the future." Cao Xiangnan yawned. It was really painful to get up so early every day, but he still had to work hard. Anyway, he

went to bed so early here, so it was better to go to bed early and get up early.

Cao Gang, who was usually in charge of grinding rice, went to grind rice spontaneously, and Wang Dahu followed him curiously. Cao Xiangnan scooped water into the pot, and saw Liu Baishu following him in. He smiled and said, "Light the fire in the stove first, and you can put the rice noodles in the pot in a while."

"Why is there another child?" Wang Dahu saw a child standing there, and strode towards him. "Is this Xiangnan's child?" he asked.

Xiangzi saw a big bearded man appearing here, just like a little beast seeing a beast bigger than him, and made a vigilant move.

"Yeah." Cao Gang raised his eyes and saw Xiangzi who had also come. This child would get up early every day to help. Seeing that the child was frightened by Wang Dahu, he called out, "Xiangzi, come here."

Xiangzi's eyes became less vigilant when he heard Uncle Cao Gang's words. He walked around the big beard and went to Uncle Cao Gang. Cao Gang's eyes flashed with a smile and said, "This is Uncle Dahu."

"Hello, uncle." Xiangzi had learned politeness since he came to Uncle Xiangnan's house. When he heard this, he immediately called out.

"Good boy." Wang Dahu grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. He didn't know how scary his beard was.

The fire on the stove was lit, and the fire was burning brightly, and the water in the pot was boiling. Cao Dapeng and Sun Yanshan came over at this time and saw the few more men who came today. Cao Xiangnan introduced everyone to each other one by one. After they got to know each other, they just worked together.

Cao Dapeng was a simple-minded man, but also easy to get along with. He quickly became familiar with Wang Dahu, the rough man, and took him to work. Sun Yanshan was older, and he was organized and clear-minded.

After a morning, everyone worked together and quickly became familiar with each other.

Everyone in the kitchen was busy, and even those who came today could find their own work.

One by one, the steamed rice noodles were taken out, still emitting hot steam, and the people over there were already cutting the rice noodles. Today, there are a few more people working, so the rice noodles are made much faster than usual. The rice noodles are steamed one by one, and the big meat buns steamed in the pot make people salivate at the aroma.

"Take one and see if it's cooked." Cao Dapeng took out a bun for Sun Dahu, and he also took one and took a bite. In the past, they would eat two big buns before setting out for the town.

Wang Dahu bared his teeth and took a bite without hesitation. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he stuffed the remaining bite into Liu Baishu's mouth.

"..." Liu Baishu.

Gan Weiqi, who accidentally glanced at it, just pretended not to see it. He had known about the relationship between Wang Dahu and Liu Baishu for a long time. At first, he thought it was a bit strange, but later he slowly accepted it.

Last night, Aning stayed at Qi Wanfeng's house, and he got up early to work together. Seeing a few extra men, he was a little uncomfortable. But after interacting with everyone for a while, he slowly got used to it.

When the carriage was ready to go to town, Aning went over to coax the child, "Be good, you have to go back to school, and your mother has to go back to the store. After we get on the carriage, your mother will hold you and let you sleep for a while."

"Woo woo..." The child who is grumpy will make a fuss as soon as he wakes up , not to mention that it is still so early today.

The sky was still gray, and the carriage stopped at the door. The things were loaded into the carriage, and Aning took the child up, "Xiangnan, we will go back first. When Wanfeng wakes up, tell him that I am leaving."

"Okay." Cao Xiangnan waved to them and said to Aning, "Come and play again when you have time."

"Goodbye Uncle Xiangnan, goodbye Xiangzi, goodbye uncle." Xuanxuan also waved to the uncles politely.

"Goodbye Xuanxuan." Cao Xiangnan waved.

Liu Baishu took a closer look at the child and felt that the child looked familiar, but he was sure that he had never seen this child before. He was a relatively careful person. Although the boy was dressed in coarse linen clothes, it still could not hide the aura on him. He felt that he was not a boy from an ordinary family.

"Let's go." Cao Dapeng and Sun Yanshan also got on the car and were about to go to the town to open their business.

"Be careful on the road." Cao Xiangnan waved at them.

"Drive--" The sound of horse hooves left, and the carriage went to the town.

The child in the house woke up, rubbed his eyes with his hand, and his wrinkled face looked much cuter than when he was awake. Kang Kang looked around, then looked at his brother who was still sleeping on the bed, got up, put on his clothes and left.

Cao Gang saw his son coming over, reached out and touched his son's head, and asked, "Where's your mother?"

Kang Kang shook his head, and Cao Gang knew that she was probably still sleeping in the house.

It was not until dawn outside that Sun Bailian woke up to her son's shouting, "Mom, Mom..." When Jingbao woke up, there was no one in the bed. When he woke up, he found that he had moved to a new place, the house was empty, and his brother was gone. He looked like he was about to cry, so he got out of bed and went to his mother's room.

"Jingbao." Sun Bailian glanced and saw that the child had already climbed onto his bed. She reached out and held the child in her arms. She looked out the window. It was dawn outside. She didn't expect that she had slept so late today. The husband was no longer in the room, presumably he had gone to work with Xiangnan. He held the boy in his arms and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Mom, mom..." Jingbao held his mouth tightly and acted coquettishly to his mom, crawling into her arms.

Sun Bailian held the child in his arms, feeling a little amused and perhaps understood something. Anyway, it was already so late, so he didn't rush to get up. He held the child in bed for a while before getting up and going to the evening breeze.
