The busy farming season is really busy, especially in Mengjia Village, which has a very hilly terrain, is poor and remote.
Apart from hoes, sickles and other items, no more advanced agricultural machinery could be found.
Meng Sheng and his family go to the fields to work at dawn every morning. When the sun is too strong, they squat at home to peel corn. In the evening, when the heat subsides a little, they go to the fields to work until dark. After dinner in the evening, they have to continue peeling corn under the starlight.
When he is busy all day long, it is not appropriate for him to do something while his parents and brothers are busy.
Feng Yi's family next door often collects herbs in the mountains.
In this way, Meng Sheng lived with his neighbors and had not had a good conversation with anyone for more than ten days.
However, he still kept an eye on his general whereabouts.
Every now and then, when Feng Yi went up the mountain or returned home, he would meet her, look at her, and say hello with a smile.
Chen Hongxing was different from her family who were completely kept in the dark and noticed nothing. She noticed all of her son's little movements.
While curling my lips in my heart, I felt a little indignant.
She looked as if her son was really the one who was too enthusiastic, and the other person had no such thoughts at all. His eyes were clear and there was no trace of shame or admiration in his eyes.
If she hadn't thought about what this girl had done in the past, she would have been a little scared and would have definitely gone to her house to have a good talk with her.
It’s absolutely true that she is a vixen. She brought trouble to the second boy in her previous life, and now she is doing it in a different way in this life.
If she were to say, it should be Feng Yijia who should chase after her son desperately.
Even if it wasn't intentional, it was a debt she owed in her previous life!
But now everything is turned upside down.
God is really...
Forget it, I can’t say this. I can’t afford to offend you!
Meng Sheng was thinking about how to finish the housework quickly so that he could have time to pursue his wife.
I have no idea what his mother is thinking.
After working hard that day, they finally put all the corn into the warehouse and had some time to rest. While everyone else in the family was lying in bed and sleeping in, Meng Sheng got up early in the morning and went up the mountain with an axe.
He saw that there was not much firewood left in Feng Yi's yard, so he took the opportunity to prepare some more for people.
On the one hand, he is reluctant to let his beloved do heavy work, but of course the most important thing is to find opportunities to show his goodwill to others, get close to them, and prepare for the future journey of pursuing his wife.
Meng Sheng had been a bachelor his entire life and knew that it was not easy to pursue a girl, especially a girl who was mentally mature and would not be easily fooled by sweet words.
Feng Yijia has been working on a patch of wild Panax notoginseng in the mountains these days, digging them up enthusiastically every day.
After breakfast that morning, I packed up the things I needed to take up the mountain, and headed into the mountains carrying a backpack and a medicine hoe.
As soon as I entered the woods, stepping on the grass leaves still covered with morning dew, I saw Meng Sheng who had already chopped a large pile of firewood.
The blue homespun clothes on his body were deformed by washing and stuck to his body with sweat, and his muscles bulging when he exerted force were faintly visible.
Two hands that had turned red and black due to exposure to the sun easily tied the tangled and tangled branches into a bundle with bamboo strips, strong and powerful.
The face that looked over when he heard the noise was two shades darker than before, and his smile revealed a row of shining white teeth.
The image of a genuine young man from the countryside came to mind, reminding Feng Yijia of the propaganda posters he saw on the walls in the city.
He couldn't help but curl his eyebrows and greeted her with a smile: "Are you free to go up the mountain today? Have you finished your housework?"
The girl coming from afar has probably been eating well these days and getting enough nutrition.
He had gained some weight, and the two thin backpack straps on his shoulders made his loose cloth clothes fit much tighter to his body.
Her breasts were two inches bigger than she remembered, and her still slender waist had its originally graceful outline exposed, with a slightly healthy blush on her face.
The whole person looks less thin and pitiful than before, and more graceful and seductive.
As the old saying goes, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. In Meng Sheng's eyes, through thick filters, the person who was slowly approaching in the morning sun was not a village girl with a little beauty, but a tempting enchantress.
He felt his throat dry and darkness welling up in his eyes.
He gritted his teeth and took a deep breath to keep his face calm, but swore in his heart that he would quickly pull this demon into his bowl and eat it all up.
Otherwise, he was afraid that he would become ill if he kept on holding back, and he was also afraid that if he continued to procrastinate, a few rivals would suddenly appear from some corner to compete with him for her.
In the past, Feng Yijia, who was pitiful and had a weird temper, was always cared about by others. Now that she has become independent and strong and more and more dazzling, even if she has a bad reputation, there will definitely be people who recognize her talent.
Meng Sheng kept thinking in his mind, but his face did not show any signs of it. He smiled and replied, "I'm done for now, let's go chop some firewood."
When the villagers were free, they would chop firewood and dry it for the winter. Feng Yijia was not interested in this topic and asked directly, "When do you plan to go to the city again?"
Meng Sheng bent down and neatly tied up the firewood under his hands. Instead of answering, he asked, "What's wrong? Are you okay?"
Feng Yijia: “It’s nothing serious, just asking.
It's too inconvenient to go out of the mountains. I thought that when you go to the city, you can help me sell the herbs."
Hearing this, Meng Sheng, who had not planned to go to the county town so soon, replied: "Tomorrow, I haven't been to the county town for a while because I'm busy.
I have to take some time to look after my business."
He paused, then looked at the person and asked, "You want me to take the herbs to sell, but you don't go to the county yourself?"
When Feng Yijia heard this, all kinds of food on both sides of the county streets flashed through his mind, and his stomach was churning and his throat was churning.
After a moment of hesitation, he shook his head and said, "I'd better not go. The mountain road is uneven and the bicycle will break my butt into pieces.
Just bring me some braised food when you return to the village!"
"Cough, cough!"
The unrestrained words, coupled with the tangled expression of the person opposite, made Meng Sheng feel extremely cute and made him want to laugh. He put his hand over his mouth and coughed twice, suppressing the laughter in his chest. Then, he came up with a few words in his mind: "I won't ride a bike tomorrow.
Last time I got two rooms in the city for my younger brother to live in alone, as school will start in a few days.
This time I have to bring a lot of daily necessities with me. My bicycle won’t fit them all, so I’ll have to borrow someone else’s ox cart!”
After saying that, he said with a look of regret: "You only want braised food, right? You don't want anything else?
I see you really liked the rice crusted pork and steamed sea bass from that restaurant last time.
Alas, it’s hard to pack up. It won’t taste the same after a long time when you bring it back!
It tastes best when it’s fresh out of the wok, fragrant and crispy!
Feng Yijia:······
He swallowed and glared at the man, suspecting that he was deliberately trying to make him greedy.
But she wasn't the kind of person who would go back on her word, so she quickly changed the subject: "I think I shouldn't bother you with my help in selling the medicine.
Just grab a ride tomorrow morning."
Having achieved his goal, Meng Sheng smiled and agreed with the other party: "Okay, let's leave at five o'clock tomorrow morning.
It's dawning early, so we should be able to see the road clearly by then. If we start early, we can find a shady place to rest our feet if it gets hot along the way."
