Chapter 26 Sure enough, he is a stupid fox
Ahhhh!
Where did this greasy, stuffy guy come from? Get off Lu Mingchuan!
How could he say such words to tease a decent woman with such a frigid expression?
Because of this sentence, Su Heng dreamed about things that were not suitable for children during her nap.
In the foggy room, there was a screen blocking the view, and behind it seemed to be a bathtub.
A handsome man whose appearance could not be seen clearly came out of the bath. His thin lips were slightly pursed and pink, which made him look inexplicably sexy. He came close to me with moist water vapor.
A cold and low voice asked her: "Would you like to try it?"
Su Heng was frightened awake.
It's so scary.
Su Heng didn't want to talk to Lu Mingchuan the whole afternoon and couldn't even look at that face.
She simply went back into the mountains to look for herbs and practice her supernatural powers.
The hive of bees had returned to the nest. Su Heng had good eyesight and could see that the part they had cut last time had been replenished.
What a hard-working little bee you are! You can ask Song Wan to come and cut some more.
As long as they harvest less each time and develop sustainably, they will always have enough wild honey to eat.
I went to see the Codonopsis pilosula field again, and found that almost all the older ones had been picked by Su Heng.
Because of the wood-type abilities she gave back, the Codonopsis field grew better than before.
As his supernatural powers grew, Su Heng was able to sense more wood energy contained in the mountains, forests and plants.
Although those century-old trees have no medicinal value, they also contain wood energy.
She found a place full of energy and sat cross-legged to absorb it until the sun set. Then she went down the mountain with a great harvest.
When she got home, the well-drilling team had already left. Su Heng spread the collected herbs on a winnowing basket and prepared to go to the backyard to check on the progress of the well.
Unexpectedly, he ran into Lu Mingchuan who had just finished feeding the chickens and ducks. He asked very naturally, "Are you back?"
Su Heng lowered her head, pretending to be busy looking around, and said with an awkward smile, "Yes, I just got back."
"What's on your head?"
A deep and magnetic voice suddenly came over, making the listener's ears feel tingling.
The deep and handsome eyebrows enlarged in front of her eyes, and Su Heng unconsciously looked at the light-colored thin lips.
He hesitated, "What?"
Her hair was gently touched, and then a slender hand with light calluses plucked a pink and white petal.
"Where did the peach blossoms come from?"
"From the mountains." Su Heng silently moved away, then felt that her reaction was too exaggerated and started to make small talk.
"What do you want to eat tonight?"
Lu Mingchuan raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you say you brought dishes made by the hotel chef?"
Su Heng reacted and immediately dug her toes into the ground in embarrassment. She quickly laughed it off and said, "I've been wandering around in the mountains all afternoon and I'm dizzy. I'll go heat up the food."
After saying that, he didn't even bother to look at the well, he just wanted to leave this place quickly.
Lu Mingchuan looked at her fleeing back, a smile in his eyes, but he did not follow her.
It really is a stupid fox.
After the food was heated up, Su Heng smelled the aroma of the meat and immediately forgot about the embarrassment. Those male beauties were immediately thrown out of her mind in front of the delicious food.
She controlled the heat, and the appearance of the heated dishes did not decrease, they were still as tempting.
"Lu Mingchuan, wash your hands and eat!"
When the food was served, each person was given a glass of cool honey water as usual.
Su Heng tasted the braised pork slices and found them sweet and sour and delicious. He is indeed a great chef!
Take another piece of pork stewed with vermicelli with chopsticks. The vermicelli is still chewy and has not become soft after being heated once. There is also sauerkraut in it, which is very delicious with rice.
The portions of the dishes were very generous. Su Heng felt full after eating only one bun, and Lu Mingchuan finished the remaining two buns and dishes.
After dinner, Su Heng remembered about buying food, so she talked about it with Lu Mingchuan.
He didn't ask why they had to buy so much food. After all, they ate fine grains every day, so it wouldn't hurt to stock up some.
But to Su Heng's surprise, he went into the house and took out three hundred yuan for her.
"What for?" Su Heng was puzzled.
"You picked the herbs, so you keep the money. Use my money to buy food. After all, I eat it too." Lu Mingchuan handed the money to her without giving her a chance to refuse.
This generosity reminded Su Heng of the first day he came and said with a sinister smile that he would not give her a penny.
It's quite fickle.
But isn’t this Lu Mingchuan’s pension? Su Heng thought that she would leave eventually, and felt that the money in her hand was a little hot.
For a moment she thought about just telling him that everything was settled, but she immediately decided against it.
Let's wait until his leg is healed.
If I tell him now that I'm going to die, it would be too hopeless when I don't know if my leg can be saved.
Although Su Heng was broad-minded, she could also sense that when she first arrived, Lu Mingchuan was somewhat lifeless, with no desire to survive in his eyes.
That's why I talk to him whenever I have time.
Su Heng still accepted the money and silently decided to save it for him. She looked up again with some curiosity: "You gave me so much at once, do you have any money left?"
Lu Mingchuan was still very honest and said, "Not much left, but the job I was assigned to should be coming soon. I can earn more after I spend it all."
"Work?"
Lu Mingchuan nodded, as if he saw through Su Heng's thoughts: "Well, this money is my bonus, not a pension."
He is still alive, so where does the pension come from? It's just that the villagers don't understand and are spreading rumors about compensation.
Su Heng shuddered at his joke and then reacted.
Soldiers all transfer to civilian jobs after retirement, especially Lu Mingchuan, whose previous position in the military should have been quite high, and he was disabled due to his mission.
The higher-ups will certainly not ignore it and will probably assign you a less busy position.
Lu Mingchuan had rushed back because his mother was ill. Fortunately, his mother was able to see him start a family and leave with peace of mind.
Su Heng felt relieved when she learned that Lu Mingchuan had a way out.
The next day, the team started working again, planting sorghum.
Su Heng had a source of food, and thinking about the hardships of farming, he felt that there was no need to force himself to suffer.
Song Wan didn't come to see Su Heng until the afternoon. She was an educated youth from outside the city, and even if she had money to buy food, it would be difficult for her not to go to work.
So after finishing his work, he came to find Su Heng, and the two of them went to find Secretary Chen together.
Secretary Chen was quite happy to hear that Song Wan wanted to build a house and settle down here. He knew that the educated youth from the city were not very willing to stay here.
It was actually difficult for their team to accommodate the educated youth. After all, this group of people could not do heavy work, and they needed food supplies from the team when they first arrived.
But the branch secretary also had some concerns: "After all, you are a girl, living alone, it is not good to live in a remote place. I will find you a place close to the brigade center."
Unexpectedly, Song Wan shook her head and said, "No, I like quietness and want to live at the foot of the mountain east of the village."
Su Heng also said, "Secretary, Song Wan lives next to me. She wants to be my neighbor."
Song Wan nodded.
Secretary Chen smiled and said that the area over there was very barren and it would be easy to get a residential plot.
Seeing that the two had reached an agreement, the branch secretary did not try to persuade them any further and followed them to take a look over there.
Finally, they chose a vacant lot more than 200 meters away from Su Heng's house, which was also along the river and close to the mountains, so both water supply and privacy were guaranteed.
After a few people agreed, the branch secretary readily approved the residential land, but building the house would have to wait, after all, there was no manpower available recently.
In fact, rural people generally do not choose this season to build new houses because summer is the busy farming season.
But Song Wan built a small house so that he could still invite some people over when he had time.
But Secretary Chen didn't expect that Cheng Yi would find him the next day and say he wanted to build a house, and he wanted to build it next door to Song Wan.
