They stayed in bed until noon in the morning. In the afternoon, after Cheng Yan cleaned up the yard, he accompanied Lin Mo to enjoy the cool under the shade of the tree. This was how the newlyweds spent their first day.
The evening sun was not that bright, with only the afterglow shining on the ground. Lin Mo curled up beside Cheng Yan and closed his eyes to sleep. The afterglow of the evening warmed his body, and there was a reassuring breath around him, and Lin Mo slept even more deeply.
After a long time, the sun had already set halfway, but there was still no sign of Lin Mo waking up. Cheng Yan was puzzled, but thinking of his weak body and the fact that he had been tossed until midnight last night, Cheng Yan felt a little distressed.
Cheng Yan carefully picked up Lin Mo who was curled up beside him and walked into the house. Lin Mo seemed to be moved and fell asleep again quickly under Cheng Yan's steady steps.
After putting Lin Mo on the bed and covering him with a blanket, Cheng Yan walked out of the room. A few minutes after Cheng Yan left, Lin Mo, who had been sleeping peacefully, suddenly frowned slightly, and his hand on the blanket unconsciously groped to the side, as if he was confirming something.
After searching for a long time without finding what he wanted, Lin Mo frowned even more tightly with his eyes closed. After a long time, Lin Mo opened his eyes with great effort. He only felt that his eyelids were very heavy and his vision was a little blurry.
"Brother..." Lin Mo's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he finally opened his eyes, with a dazed look in his eyes.
Lin Mo dreamed of his brothers. It was a scene before the end of the world. They were picking fruits and playing in their orchard. In the dream, his brothers were still teenagers of fifteen or sixteen years old. Young Lin Mo was picked up and held high by his brothers. This was what he looked forward to most when he was a child. Their parents were picking fruits for them and watching them with a smile.
It had been a long time since Lin Mo had dreamed of the scene of their family together before the end of the world. In the dream, he was smiling happily, but when he woke up, he wanted to cry.
Lin Mo forced back the tears in his eyes, propped himself up and got out of bed. He slept a little too much today, and his mind was still fuzzy when he woke up, and his body felt a little weak.
"Cheng Yan..." Lin Mo muttered to himself as he walked out of the room with a shaky step.
Cheng Yan was making dinner when he vaguely heard Lin Mo calling his name. He turned his head and saw Lin Mo walking towards him.
"How did you get here? When did you wake up?" Cheng Yan put a few bowls of water into the pot and covered it with a lid. He wiped his hands casually with an old cloth, then walked over quickly.
“I just woke up and came out without seeing you…” Lin Mo looked up at him.
When Cheng Yan saw his slightly red eyes, his heart softened instantly. His wife was too clingy. She cried when she woke up and couldn't see him. Her eyes were red.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Cheng Yan sighed inwardly, hugged the person in his arms, patted his head to comfort him, and asked.
"No." After suppressing his abnormal emotions, Lin Mo, who had returned to normal, wondered when Cheng Yan became so proactive.
Being held in Cheng Yan's arms, Lin Mo stretched out his hands to hug his neck, and the whole person seemed to hang on him, and the weight of his body pressed towards Cheng Yan. With a head of messy hair, he rubbed against his arms, which seemed to others like he was acting like a spoiled child.
Sure enough, my wife is clingy and likes to act coquettishly.
"I made bone soup for you. Do you want to eat anything else?" Cheng Yan asked.
"I'll eat whatever you cook. I'm not picky."
For a man like Cheng Yan who doesn't seem to be very good at cooking, Lin Mo doesn't have high requirements, as long as he is a good cook.
"Go sit in the hall, it will be ready soon." Cheng Yan touched his head and put some distance between them.
Cheng Yan walked behind him, untied his hairband, and carefully straightened his hair with his hands before tying it up. Lin Mo stood there motionless the whole time.
After finishing, Cheng Yan asked him to wait in the hall, and then he went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.
After the meal was ready, Cheng Yan brought the dishes into the hall. Just as he was about to sit down to eat, he heard a knock on the door, and then Lin's father's voice came from outside the door.
"You eat, I'll go open the door." After Cheng Yan said this to Lin Mo, he stood up and walked towards the door.
Cheng Yan opened the door and saw Lin's father and his eldest brother Lin Cheng standing outside. Lin's father was carrying a basket of eggs and duck eggs, while Lin Cheng was carrying a large bag of grain. Cheng Yan had helped move it into the warehouse before, so he knew what was in the bag.
"Dad, big brother, you are here... why are you still bringing these..."
"Okay, stop talking about these nonsense. We have plenty of food at home, and there is no need for you to spend that money to buy food." Father Lin waved his hand to stop him.
Looking at his eyes, Father Lin knew what Cheng Yan wanted to say, but he had just built the house and they got married. Even if Cheng Yan had money before, he would not spend it easily, and there would be many more places to spend money in the future.
Moreover, even if Cheng Yan could endure the hardship, Father Lin would not want his son to suffer with him.
Father Lin walked in carrying something, and Lin Cheng followed him to the kitchen. After Cheng Yan closed the door, he followed them.
"I've been to the mountains several times before." So he really doesn't lack money.
"…I've already brought it here, and you still want me, your father, to carry it back."
Before they had walked far, Lin Mo came over.
"Dad, what did you bring?" Lin Mo walked over and asked puzzledly.
"Your mother picked some chicken eggs and duck eggs for you. They were laid by our chickens and ducks. Remember to eat one every day to nourish your body, and then go home and get more after you're done." Lin's father reminded.
His son has been in poor health since childhood and has to drink a bowl of egg porridge every day to replenish his body, but he hasn't seen him eating it recently.
"Just leave these to Xiaoya and Xiaonan. I don't need them now." Lin Mo refused. He didn't need these to maintain his health. It would be useless to use them to supplement his health. It would be better to save them for the children at home.
"If Dad takes it back now, your mom will definitely bring it back tomorrow. Isn't it a waste of time to go back and forth?" Lin's father said. After Lin Cheng came out, Lin's father handed him the basket, and Lin Cheng took it and put it in the kitchen.
"Dad, do you want to have dinner together?" Lin Mo asked.
"No need, you two can eat it yourselves... Before the vegetables are grown, remember to go back to the vegetable garden and pick them." Father Lin said.
"Yeah." Lin Mo stood aside and nodded in response.
"Your mother and I have divided your share of the land..." Father Lin said as he took out a land deed from his arms. This was the decision that Father Lin and Mother Lin had made before Lin Mo and Cheng Yan got married.
Cheng Yan didn't have any land, so he could grow vegetables himself and buy meat. But as for food, it would be a huge expense to buy it all the time, so it would be better to grow it at home and eat it yourself.
Before Lin's father finished speaking, Lin Mo pushed back the land deed that he handed over. Lin Mo had never farmed before, and Cheng Yan didn't know how to farm either, so it was useless to divide the land between them.
"Dad, Cheng Yan and I don't know how to farm, so it's useless to us." Lin Mo shook his head and refused.
"If Cheng Yan doesn't know how, he can learn. Didn't he do it quite well before?" Father Lin disagreed.
"Dad, it's the same if we distribute the harvested grain to Mo Ge'er according to the amount." When planting or harvesting, Cheng Yan can come to help. This is also a way of dividing the grain, and it doesn't have to be so troublesome to distribute it.
Lin Cheng also knew that Cheng Yan had no talent for farming. If he divided the land among them, he wouldn't know how much he could harvest in the harvest season. It would be better for them to farm together at the beginning and then divide the land later.
"Cheng Yan and I plan to open a small shop in town. Even if we are given some money, we won't have time to grow crops." Lin Mo shook his head.
Finally, Lin Cheng, Lin's father, went back and took the title deed back with him. Lin Mo had just talked with his eldest brother for a few minutes and learned that his eldest brother had already started promoting the store.
After they left, Lin Mo and Cheng Yan sat down to eat, and Cheng Yan helped him pick up some dishes from time to time.
"In a few days I'll go to the mountains to look for climbing flowers and fruit trees I want to plant?" Cheng Yan asked.
Their yard is big enough to plant five or six trees. Cheng Yan has no opinion on what trees to plant, mainly to see what his wife thinks.
"Plant persimmon trees and plum trees, and plant some grapes in the corner of the wall. I'll go with you that day." Lin Mo thought for a moment and said.
In fact, Lin Mo wanted to plant some peach and pear trees. The flowers of these two trees are very beautiful, especially when the petals fall down, it feels like a rain of petals. At that time, the yard will be full of pink and pear-colored petals, which must be very beautiful.
But when Lin Mo thought about the bad meaning of these two trees in the yard, he gave up the idea. He didn't believe in these ghosts and gods before, but since he was reborn here, Lin Mo didn't dare to ignore them completely. It's always better to be cautious.
"It's not safe in the mountains. You stay home and I'll be back soon." Cheng Yan rejected Lin Mo's proposal to go with him.
Cheng Yan could guarantee his own safety when he went into the mountains, but if he had to take Lin Mo with him, he was worried that his wife would be hurt by something due to his negligence.
"There are often snakes crawling on the trees in the mountains. If you are not careful, they will fall in front of you and bite you. Many snakes are poisonous. There are also various insects that emit a foul smell and make your body itchy when you touch them. There are also ants that bite people and it hurts..."
In order to prevent Lin Mo from following him, Cheng Yan said so many words at once. Of course, what he said was all in the deepest part of the mountain, where the sun could not reach.
Lin Mo listened to what Cheng Yan said, and his mind automatically completed the picture, and his body trembled. Lin Mo was frightened by the picture in his mind and his face turned pale. He was afraid of those mollusks since he was a child, especially snakes and caterpillars.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Yan saw that his face turned even paler, and his heart tightened. Cheng Yan felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have said it so horribly. He forgot that the boys seemed to be quite afraid of those insects.
"It's okay." Lin Mo shook his head. Finally, Lin Mo gave up the idea of following him into the mountains.
The Lin family also planned to go to the village head in the next few days to discuss the issue of how to deal with the fruits in the orchards of other villagers in the neighboring village. The brewing of fruit wine requires a large amount of fruit, and the orchard in their village is the source of supply.
The Lin family purchased fruits from the orchards in the village, thus solving the problem of supply and allowing villagers to make money from their nearly abandoned orchards. I believe that few people would refuse this opportunity to make money for free.
Afterwards, Lin's father and Lin Cheng went to the head of the village to discuss the matter in detail. The head of the village gathered the villagers together and talked about the matter. The reactions of other villagers were just as Lin Mo expected.
Moreover, the reputation of the Lin family in Daling Village has also become more prosperous. First, the scholar son of the Lin family passed the provincial examination and is now a juren, which has also brought some glory to other people in Daling Village. Now that the Lin family has brought them opportunities to make money, the villagers are naturally more enthusiastic about the Lin family.
