Chapter 204: We can grow old together in this life
Ge Qingshan took aim for a moment and then shot an arrow.
It's a pity that the arrow missed the target by a full meter. The pheasant didn't even run away. It just froze for a moment and went on looking for food.
Ge Qingshan: "..."
It seems that it is an illusion that wild chickens are easy to beat. For Lin Heng, he is still a rookie.
After thinking for a while, he shot another arrow. With a click, the pheasant flew away. He laughed at himself and said, "Haha, I've made progress this time."
Lin Heng looked at him and said, "Your basic skills seem to be fine, it's just that you lack practice, and you are too nervous."
"Let's find another one." Lin Heng felt that if Ge Qingshan succeeded once or twice, it would be better.
After searching for a long time, when Ge Qingshan was about to give up, Lin Heng suddenly saw a suitable one.
"Come with me!"
Lin Heng said something, pulled Ge Qingshan's clothes and brought him to the back of a small hill.
Lin Heng pointed ahead and said, "Look over there, this chicken is more than ten meters away, looking for food."
Ge Qingshan saw the hen at a glance and couldn't help feeling excited.
"Just keep calm and don't get excited."
Lin Heng patted his neighbor and said.
Ge Qingshan nodded, slowly raised the bow and arrow, aimed every three seconds and shot an arrow.
“Gada!”
With a scream, the pheasant failed to fly this time.
“Hahahaha, I hit it!!”
Ge Qingshan rushed out quickly, picked up the pheasant and laughed.
"Congratulations!" Lin Heng said with a smile.
After the excitement subsided, Ge Qingshan smiled and said, "Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't have had a chance to hit the target."
"You can succeed if you try a few more times." Lin Heng shook his head slightly.
Ge Qingshan now had confidence and said with a smile: "Then I'll find another one to try."
Then three or four more flew in succession. Lin Heng roughly saw Ge Qingshan's level. He had a 30% chance of hitting a pheasant within 20 meters, and a 90% chance of hitting a pheasant within 10 meters.
This is a modern compound bow he is using. If he had used an ancient wooden bow, he would probably have had a hard time hitting the prey. He probably hasn't practiced enough.
After playing for another two hours, it was 2:30 in the afternoon when Ge Qingshan said, "Forget it, let's just stop here today. Let's go and I'll treat you to dinner."
Lin Heng smiled and shook his head: "It's really not possible today, I'll treat you next time, mainly because I have something I want to do."
"What's the matter? Tell me and maybe I can solve it for you." Ge Qingshan really wanted Lin Heng to eat the first prey he caught.
Lin Heng looked at Ge Qingshan. He didn't know this person. Teaching him archery was an exchange of interests. He had originally thought that today would be the last time he would teach him and he would have nothing to do with him from now on.
Therefore, he did not want to talk about his own affairs, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this person was not bad, so he said: "I want to go and see the situation of aquaculture near Taibai City, to see if there are any fish fry or shrimp fry or something."
When Ge Qingshan heard this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "That's easy. I'll ask you about it some other day. My dad sometimes does wholesale business."
Lin Heng had no choice. He just wanted to go for a walk, but Ge Qingshan had already said this, so he had no choice but to agree: "Thank you then."
"It's just a small matter, let's go eat."
Ge Qingshan found a nice restaurant and gave the pheasant to the owner.
The boss prepared a whole chicken feast, which included five dishes including stewed chicken, stir-fried chicken, honey roast chicken, etc. Lin Heng and Ge Qingshan drank some wine, and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon when they finished eating.
After dinner, Lin Heng said goodbye and left. He only drank two small cups and didn't feel anything at all. He rode his bike to the city to buy things.
He first bought two liters of gasoline and two liters of diesel, and then bought some food and toiletries, and then rode his bike back.
It was already six o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to Huangtan Town. I filled up the motorcycle's gas and handed it to teacher Guo Xu. He rode back with the remaining gasoline and other things.
It was already half past six when I returned to the house and it was completely dark.
As soon as Lin Heng walked to the road below the house, Xiulan pulled Xiaoxia out with a flashlight.
"Dad!" Xiaoxia called in a baby voice from a distance.
Xiulan asked with concern: "Why did you come back just now? Did something happen?"
Lin Heng jumped off the horse and held his daughter in his arms, smiling and saying, "Nothing happened, I was just delayed by having dinner with someone."
Xiulan felt relieved immediately: "It's okay, hurry into the house and warm up."
“Dad, I love you!”
Xiaoxia hugged Lin Heng's neck and spoke in a baby voice, her big eyes blinking.
Lin Heng was so happy when he heard this: "My dear, I bought you a little toy. I'll give it to you when I get back."
"good!"
Xiaoxia suddenly became happier.
The family of three returned home, and Lin Heng gave the toiletries to Xiulan. He put the diesel and gasoline in the storage room, tied the red dates to the stable, and could not wait to go into the bedroom to warm himself by the fire.
We rode motorcycles and horses along the way and almost froze to death. The winters in this era felt much colder than those in later times.
"Dad, let me warm your hands."
Xiaoxia saw Lin Heng rubbing his hands, and ran over to cover Lin Heng's big hands with her small hands.
"Thank you, babe."
Lin Heng was warmed by his daughter's behavior.
"The meal is ready, just waiting for you to come back."
Xiulan brought over the food that was warmed on the fireplace. It was a simple meal of three dishes and one soup. The dishes were stir-fried vermicelli with pork and spicy sauce, stir-fried bamboo shoots with mushrooms, and shredded potatoes with spicy sauce. The soup was cabbage and tofu soup.
"Thank you, wife." Lin Heng grinned. Although he was not hungry, he still felt warmed to see so much food.
Xiulan smiled and said, "Eat quickly."
"good!"
Even though he was not hungry, Lin Heng still picked up his chopsticks and started eating. Xiulan and Xiaoxia also started eating happily.
After taking two bites of the food, Lin Heng shared with his wife what he had done today. Xiulan listened while eating, while Xiaoxia fiddled with the chopsticks, wanting to learn how to use them.
Xiulan mostly just listened, occasionally expressing her opinions. She really wanted to enjoy Lin Heng sharing these trivial things with her, and after Lin Heng finished speaking, she also talked about what she had done today.
She had nothing to do at home. Today, Lin's father brought her some lotus roots, which she washed and prepared to make into lotus root powder. Except for Tian Yan coming over to play for a while at noon, there was nothing else to do.
The two of them finished their meal quickly while chatting. Xiulan said she wanted to take a bath, so Lin Heng brought in the bathtub and boiled water in it.
Xiulan put the dishes in the kitchen, went into the room, took a black round-neck sweater from the bed and handed it to Lin Heng: "I knitted this sweater today, take a look and see if it fits you."
"good."
Lin Heng smiled and nodded, then took off his clothes and put on a sweater. It was an old black sweater, which was a little tight on him, outlining his majestic figure.
"It looks good, thank you, wife."
Lin Heng grinned, feeling that this piece of clothing was warmer than anything he'd bought for a few dozen bucks. Xiulan was so kind, not only did she make shoes for him, she also knitted a sweater for him.
Xiulan raised her hand to tidy up his messy hair, looked at him, and a gentle smile appeared on her pretty face: "It's not bad, as long as you like it."
“It looks great!”
Xiaoxia also clapped and cheered beside her.
After Lin Heng put it on, he didn't take it off and took out the things he bought for his wife and children.
He bought Xiaoxia pure milk, a toy car and a tumbler doll.
Now that he couldn’t buy a dairy cow, he bought Bright Dairy milk, which has a good reputation.
Xiaoxia saw the new toy and started playing with it on the table, laughing silly.
"Honey, this is for you."
Lin Heng smiled and handed Xiulan a set of fashionable purple underwear.
Xiulan poked him unhappily when she saw the thing: "I already have four sets, that's enough."
Lin Heng grinned: "How can this be enough? Different colors and styles give different feelings."
Xiulan blushed slightly, glared at Lin Heng, and put her underwear into the closet.
"I also bought you some food, your favorite cookies."
Lin Heng pointed at the black sesame and white sugar biscuits in the bag and said with a smile that Xiulan liked this flavor very much and he would buy some every time.
"Thank you, husband."
When Xiulan saw the biscuits, her eyes lit up. She took one out and took a bite like a greedy cat, then divided it into two portions and fed them to Lin Heng and Xiaoxia.
This biscuit is the size of a palm and is topped with black sesame seeds and white sugar. It can be considered a luxury food in rural areas.
Lin Heng got a box of milk, poured it into a teacup and placed it on the fireplace to warm it up. After it was warm, he took it out and divided it into two portions for Xiulan and Xiaoxia.
Xiaoxia smelled it and then lay there, closing her eyes and making a squeaking sound.
Xiulan smelled it and took a sip. It was her first time to drink pure milk and she felt the taste was a bit strange, but the more she drank it, the better it tasted.
"How is it?" Lin Heng asked with a smile.
Xiulan blinked and said, "Not bad, but I'm a little uncomfortable with the drink."
Lin Heng took a biscuit, soaked it in milk, and fed it to Xiulan, smiling and asking, "What now?"
Xiulan took a bite of the biscuit and showed surprise in her eyes: "This biscuit tastes so much better after soaking it in milk!"
"Of course, that's how cookies taste best." Lin Heng said with a smile.
Xiulan didn't say anything, soaked another piece of biscuit, and put it in her mouth with an intoxicated expression.
"Daddy, I want more milk!"
Xiaoxia finished drinking, and took the small bowl to ask Lin Heng for more, her big eyes blinking.
"No more today, I'll drink again tomorrow morning." Lin Heng pinched her cheek and said with a smile: "I'll tell you a new story tonight and then we go to sleep, okay?"
Xiaoxia tilted her head and looked at the milk in Xiulan's bowl without saying a word.
Xiulan quickly drank some and passed half to her: "You can't drink anymore after you finish it."
"Okay~"
Xiaoxia looked at the little milk left and drank it slowly. After she finished, Xiulan fed her two spoonfuls of hawthorn paste and played with her for a while before letting her go to bed to rest.
Before Lin Heng finished telling the new story with the book in his hand, Xiaoxia had already fallen asleep.
At this time, Xiulan had also prepared the water in the bath tub, and she took off her clothes and went in to take a bath.
Lin Heng gave a wicked smile, took off his clothes and went into the bath. He rested his head on the edge of the wooden tub, closed his eyes, felt the hot water invading his body, and the smooth and delicate touch from the contact between him and Xiulan. He gradually became lazy.
After dozing for a few minutes, Lin Heng opened his eyes and watched Xiulan taking a bath, feeling happy and refreshed.
From the time he and Xiulan met to the time they got married, everything about Xiulan was her first time, and of course everything about him was her first time too.
How to kiss, how to pass on genes, how to love each other, everything is learned by the two people through mutual exploration, everything is pure and beautiful.
Xiulan looked at Lin Heng in a daze and rolled her eyes at him: "What are you looking at? Turn around and I'll rub your back for you."
"good."
Lin Heng obediently turned around and enjoyed his wife rubbing his back. He was so comfortable that he was speechless as he felt his wife's small hands sliding on his back.
"Okay!"
After a while, Xiulan stopped and said.
Lin Heng turned around, looked at Xiulan's skin which was faintly visible in the mist, and said with a sly smile: "Wife, it's my turn to rub your back."
"No, my back isn't dirty." Xiulan poked Lin Heng, knowing exactly what he was up to.
Lin Heng shook his head: "I don't believe it, let me rub it and see."
"A belly full of bad water~"
Xiulan couldn't argue with Lin Heng, so she muttered something and turned around.
When Xiulan rubbed Lin Heng's back, it was really a back rub, but when Lin Heng rubbed Xiulan's back, it was more than just a back rub. He took advantage of her so much.
When Xiulan went to bed, Lin Heng carried her to the bed, and then they immediately couldn't help but do what they loved.
Half an hour later, Xiulan helplessly wiped the dirt off her stomach and wanted to throw it in Lin Heng's face.
"It's out of control."
Lin Heng hugged her and grinned.
"snort!"
Xiulan bit him, said nothing, held his arms in her arms, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Lin Heng felt that this was an alternative punishment. The touch on his arm made it impossible for him to fall asleep, but he didn't want to torture his wife anymore, so he endured for half an hour before falling asleep.
The next morning, Lin Heng opened his eyes and found Xiulan looking at him. Seeing that he woke up, Xiulan pointed outside and said, "It should be snowing."
"I'll go and take a look."
Lin Heng just wanted to open the window, but was hugged by Xiulan: "No need, let's go later."
"Sister, this is a foul."
Lin Heng looked at her. In this frank state, hugging her so tightly was simply torturing him.
"Don't move."
Xiulan snorted and said nothing.
Just when Lin Heng was about to lose control, Xiulan suddenly let him go, quickly got dressed and got up.
Lin Heng looked at her: "You did it on purpose. You have become a bad person. You were not like this before."
Xiulan smiled slightly, ignored him, and went to add some firewood to the fireplace.
"Let's go, get up and exercise."
After the firewood was set up, Xiulan found some clean underwear for Lin Heng, stretched out her hand and said with a smile: "Get up quickly, let's go exercise."
"good."
Lin Heng put on his clothes and took his wife out.
There was indeed a light snow falling outside. There was a thin layer of snow on the courtyard wall, the trees, and the ground. It looked like it had only started snowing not long ago.
“Wangwang!!”
Xiongba, who was sleeping under the eaves, greeted the two of them. Lin Heng touched his dog's head, turned around to go to the toilet, and then exercised in the snow with Xiulan.
It took them half an hour to finish their exercise, and the light snow made their hair turn completely white.
After looking at the snow on each other's heads, they smiled at each other and turned back to the house.
There is no need for them to get caught in the snow together someday, they will definitely be able to grow old together in this life.
