Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Young couples are always sticky...
In previous winters, Qin Xiong spent his time in the mountains. Wild animals like elk and pheasants would become fat in the autumn, which was the time when the meat became firm.
This year is different.
"Sister-in-law, what are we going to eat for lunch today..." After reviewing his homework, Qin Bao rubbed his hands and went into the kitchen. Seeing the two people quickly separate in front of the stove, he consciously lowered his eyes to avoid suspicion.
------It's stewed pork ribs with radish and stir-fried cabbage. It's almost ready. Xiaobao, please clear the table.
Tian Ge stood in front of the stove, gestured for a while, and tried to speak naturally, but her eyes were still a little erratic. She couldn't help but pinch Qin Xiong beside her secretly and glared at him with a frown.
I told you not to kiss anymore, but now this is the second time Xiaobao has caught us today. This is a bad lesson for the kid!
Qin Xiong was glared at. He smiled at first, then pretended to be serious and frowned. He coughed twice to clear his throat and asked Qin Bao to get the bowls and chopsticks to prepare for dinner.
Qin Bao would not be frightened by his elder brother's dark face. He shrugged his shoulders and hoped that Kaichun would go back to school as soon as possible. He always felt that Kaichun was a bit of a hindrance at home.
But the eldest brother is too attached to the eldest sister-in-law, just like Dahuang. He always follows her around, even more so than Dahuang. Dahuang will go back to the doghouse by himself when he is tired.
"Sister-in-law, it smells so good. I'm starving." Qin Bao moved to the stove and looked at the shiny and oily stir-fried cabbage in the pot. He couldn't help drooling.
The leaves cooked by his sister-in-law were so fragrant that he could eat two bowls of rice. Since his sister-in-law came into the house, Qin Bao felt that he had gained at least ten pounds in the past few months. It turned out that he didn't have a small appetite at all, but the food cooked by his elder brother was too hard to swallow!
Tian Ge looked at Qin Bao lovingly. Although he was only five years older than Qin Bao, an elder sister-in-law was like a mother. He raised Qin Bao as if he were Zhuangzhuang, both of whom were sensible and good children.
"You just ate five big meat buns this morning and said you were too full, and now you're starving again?" Qin Xiong asked his younger brother, and took the plate of food that Tian Ge had served, and brought it to the table, with a faint smile on his lips. After being married for a few months, Qin Xiong himself didn't realize that his facial features, which were always tense in the past, were now relaxed, and his eyes were much kinder.
-----You can’t say the word “death”, it’s unlucky, spit it out quickly.
Tian Ge made gestures, and now the two brothers can understand some of his simple sign language, making daily communication much easier.
"Pooh, pooh, pooh, Xiao Ge'er, Qin Bao is so careless with his words, I'm going to teach him a lesson." Qin Xiong said, and then he put his arm around Qin Bao's neck and went to the yard, knocked him down in the snow pile with ease, and turned around to wink at Tian Ge who came over to stop the fight with a smile.
Tian Ge paid more attention to this aspect than others, because Qin Xiong was a hunter, doing the bloody work of hunting with a knife, and it was also the New Year, so he had to be most careful with his words.
"Sister-in-law! Look at my brother, he is bullying me again! He clearly said it himself." Qin Bao was not convinced and wanted to drag Qin Xiong into the snow as well. However, he was subdued in a few moves and had no tricks left.
There was a thick layer of snow in the yard, which had not been cleared today. The two brothers were playing in the snow together. Tian Ge shook his head, "Two childish boys!" He walked over, grabbed Qin Xiong's cold hand and pulled him away. Qin Bao also quickly stood up.
The kitchen was filled with the aroma of food. Tian Ge's thick black hair was simply tied up with a hairband. She never put it up at home. Her cheeks were rosy and fair, and she looked even more beautiful. She was wearing a bright red jacket that was a new piece made before the New Year. Compared to the naive and innocent young man before she got married, Tian Ge now had a different kind of soft and mature charm when she walked, sat or lay down.
There was nothing to do in the cold winter, so after dinner, Tian Ge left the dishes and pots for Qin Bao to wash, and went back to her room with Qin Xiong to take a nap.
Nestled in the quilt face to face, Tian Ge hugged Qin Xiong's neck stickyly and kissed him intermittently. This man was like a big furnace, his whole body was hot. It was so comfortable to sleep with him in her arms in winter.
They have been married for nearly four months and have done a lot of intimate things, so there is no need to be shy. Tian Ge is not reserved in this regard. He likes to be close to Qin Xiong and always wants to hug him, kiss him, climb on him, and stick to him.
-----Don’t kiss outside anymore. It’s so embarrassing if Xiaobao sees us all the time.
Tian Ge thought about this and reached out to poke Qin Xiong's chest. Xiao Bao just turned thirteen this year and is still a child. Qin Xiong, as the eldest brother, does not set a good example.
"Okay, I remember." Qin Xiong replied, stretched out his hand and easily loosened Tian Ge's hairband, letting her soft black hair fall down. He inserted his five fingers into the hair, clasped Tian Ge's round back of the head, and chased her to kiss her.
His mouth must have been swollen from biting it, Tian Ge thought. Qin Xiong's arms were wrapped around his waist tighter and tighter, and his kiss was getting deeper. This was not a quick taste.
No way, Xiao Bao is studying next door, in broad daylight, if he makes any noise and gets heard, he'll be embarrassed. Tian Ge reached out and pushed his chest, clearly last night...
"When will your spring tide come this year? I've been thinking about that day for a long time." Qin Xiong rubbed Tian Ge in his arms, his voice low and hoarse, with a hint of smile and expectation. Of course, he knew what was going on and was just waiting for the school in the county town to open in a few days so that he could send Qin Bao in.
-----I don’t know either, maybe soon.
Tian Ge is already eighteen years old, and his first spring tide is about to come, which will last for three to five days. Qin Xiong will accompany him through it.
-----Do you want children?
It is difficult for boys to get pregnant under normal circumstances, so the spring tide period once a year is particularly important. A boy with good health can almost always get pregnant during the spring tide period.
"Do you want it?" Qin Xiong didn't answer, but asked Tian Ge instead.
-----I have no idea.
Tian Ge was a little conflicted. He seemed to have no concept of being a father at all. Although he really wanted to have a baby with Qin Xiong, he was a little confused and afraid of the unknown.
"I think I'll wait a few years." Qin Xiong answered after careful consideration. His own mother died of complications during childbirth. The bright red stain that covered the bed that day has always been engraved in Qin Xiong's mind, and Tian Ge is still young.
If you don't want to have children, you should drink contraceptive soup during the spring tide and go to the doctor to buy medicine in advance.
Hearing Qin Xiong say this, Tian Ge breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She reached out to touch the scar on Qin Xiong's cheek and the prickly stubble on his chin, and wrote something in his palm half jokingly and half worriedly.
------I am still young, but you are getting old.
Qin Xiong is twenty-seven years old this year. Men of his age in the village can already run to the river to catch small fish.
"I'm old?" Qin Xiong's expression was as cracked as the pattern on the porcelain bowl, his eyes widened considerably. He hugged Tian Ge and slammed her into his arms, "Little Ge, do you think I'm old? Come and let your husband prove it to you. See if I'm really old or not."
Her armpits and waist were all tickled. Tian Ge laughed so hard that she rolled around in Qin Xiong's arms, curled up like a shrimp, gasping for breath and waving her hands for mercy.
"Do you still think I'm old?" Qin Xiong put his hands on Tian Ge's ears, holding him under him, breathing faster. He asked in a serious tone, but his eyes couldn't hide the smile. Seeing Tian Ge laughing so hard that his chest kept rising and falling, and lying there looking at him with curved eyebrows, Qin Xiong stretched out a hand and stroked his chest to help him breathe more.
Tian Ge smiled and shook his head, and Qin Xiong leaned over to kiss him again.
Spring has arrived, and according to the usual schedule, Qin Xiong will prepare to embark on his first hunting trip in the mountains in the new year.
Wu Ping'an has come twice this month, carrying meat and vegetables, and both times he asked when the master would go into the mountains and wanted to go with him.
Ever since he broke his hands and feet in the mountains last year, Wu Ping'an somehow opened up his Ren and Du meridians, and finally made up his mind to learn skills from Qin Xiong.
"He fell in love with a young man, but the young man looked down on him and said he was lazy and had no future." Qin Xiong was picking cabbages in the field and chatting with Tian Ge. The frost on the road was frozen hard, and picking the cabbages was even more freezing. He took the cabbages home and mixed them with sauerkraut to make noodles in the morning.
Originally, there was no vegetable garden at home, and large plots of land were used to grow crops.
After Tian Ge came, she said she wanted a piece of land to grow vegetables for her family, so Qin Xiong opened up this piece of land near his home. Tian Ge usually took care of it, while Qin Xiong was responsible for the manure and other tasks.
Early in the morning, the air he exhaled was thick and white. Tian Ge squatted beside the vegetable field, his mind a little wandering. He didn't care much about Wu Ping'an's affairs. He cared about Qin Xiong going into the mountains.
It takes a long time to get into the mountains. Since they got married, they have not been apart for more than half a day.
Qin Bao also went to study in the school in the county town, and only came back for two days a month. By then, he would be the only one at home.
Tian Ge felt so sad that she wanted to cry when she thought about it. It was so cold and there was no big stove to sleep by at night.
But Qin Xiong didn't seem to care at all, as if being apart for a month was no big deal.
"Let's go home. Are your hands cold? Let me feel them." Qin Xiong came out of the vegetable field and touched Tian Ge's hand with the back of his hand. It was warm.
Tian Ge was unhappy these past two days, and Qin Xiong didn't know what was going on, so he tried to tease him. He used the back of his cold hand to pretend to touch Tian Ge's little face, and when Tian Ge turned his head away, he kissed him.
Qin Xiong's lips were cold. Tian Ge sniffed, held his wrist first, and walked back home together on the frosty ground. When they got home, she quickly lit a fire and let Qin Xiong warm up first.
The dough had already been kneaded and fermented. Tian Ge skillfully rolled out the dough, cut it into strips, put it into a pot of boiling water, and added two chicken eggs to cook together.
There are no chickens at home, so the eggs are bought from other places. Tian Ge is preparing to go to the county town to buy a few chickens to raise in the spring when it is not so cold. He is a good chicken raiser, and all the chickens are energetic and lay eggs well, so he can add a few more eggs when making noodles.
Qin Xiong was burning a fire behind the stove. The firewood in the stove hole was crackling and the house soon became warm. He tilted his head and glanced at Tian Ge quietly. Seeing that her husband was stirring the pot carefully with a pair of chopsticks, he couldn't help but call out "Xiao Ge'er".
-----You can eat it right away.
Tian Ge gestured. He had been thinking about Qin Xiong going up the mountain these past few days. Just now, he decided that instead of waiting for Qin Xiong, the blockhead, to say that he was reluctant, he might as well take the initiative himself.
He had heard Qin Xiong say that a house had been built in the mountains, and he also wanted to follow him up the mountain. He would stay in the house and wait for Qin Xiong to come back, so as not to cause any trouble for him.
After dinner, while sitting by the fire pit and warming themselves, Tian Ge told him about this.
"That's what I thought originally." Qin Xiong replied. He finally knew what his husband had been thinking about these days. It was also because he was too slow.
Qin Xiong held Tian Ge's hand and explained, "I wanted to send you back to your father's house to stay for more than a month. They miss you all the time, but I was also worried that I wouldn't be with you during your first spring tide. So, when it gets warmer, we'll go into the mountains together. Then I'll let Erhuang stay with you in the cabin."
It turned out that all the worries these days were in vain. Tian Ge was happy and aggrieved. She sat on Qin Xiong's lap and bit his face in anger. This wooden guy didn't tell him earlier, making him think that Qin Xiong didn't care about him that much.
