The two came out of the cowshed and walked back hand in hand. Lu Xiaotang looked at her from the side.
Seeing that he was always staring at her, Xu Ning asked coquettishly, "Why are you always staring at me?"
Lu Xiaotang smiled and said, "My wife is so pretty."
Xu Ning rolled his eyes at him, broke free from his hand, took a few quick steps, and left him behind.
After Xu Yang finished washing up, he was about to close the store. Xu An asked, "Brother, why are you closing the store now? Brother Lu hasn't come back yet."
Xu Yang slapped him on the head and said, "Have you become stupid from studying too much?"
Xu An also remembered that they were already married, and said embarrassedly, "I just forgot about it for a moment."
When the two came back, Xu Yang and Xu An were already asleep, and there was boiled hot water in the pot.
Lu Xiaotang mixed the water and asked her to wash up first. Xu Ning felt a little embarrassed now. She washed up slowly and quickly went back to the room.
Not long after, Lu Xiaotang also came in. Seeing that the room was dark and without any lights on, he knew that the girl was embarrassed. He chuckled and walked towards the kang.
When Xu Ning got up in the morning, it was already bright. He looked at his watch and saw that it was already past nine o'clock, so he got up immediately and got dressed.
When I opened the door, I saw Lu Xiaotang tidying up the woodshed, but I didn't see Xu Yang and Xu An.
Seeing that she had gotten up, Lu Xiaotang said gently, "Why don't you sleep a little longer? You must be hungry. Wash up first and I'll serve you some food."
After saying that, he squeezed the toothpaste for her and brought her a basin of water for washing her face.
Xu Ning still felt embarrassed to see him now, and said awkwardly, "I can do it myself."
Lu Xiaotang gave her water and a toothbrush, then took out the warm rice from the pot and put it on the table.
Xu Ning lowered his head to eat and asked, "Where are my brother and Xiao An?"
Seeing that she kept her head down, Lu Xiaotang smiled and said, "They went up the mountain to chop firewood. Don't go out after you eat. Go back to sleep.
Xu Yang will be back in the army the day after tomorrow. I will go to the mountain later to see if I can find any prey and roast some dried meat for him tomorrow. ”
Xu Ning glanced at him, then quickly turned away and said, "Then be careful."
Lu Xiaotang smiled and touched her head, then picked up the things he had packed long ago and went up the mountain.
Xu Ning breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him go out. It was so embarrassing!
Suddenly he remembered that Lu Xiaotang seemed to have an injury on his arm. Thinking of this, he immediately chased after him.
Seeing that he had already reached the cowshed, he hurriedly shouted, "Brother Lu, come back, you are not allowed to go."
When Lu Xiaotang heard her voice, he hurried over and asked, "What's wrong? Xiaoning."
Xu Ning kept silent and took his hand and said, "Go home."
Lu Xiaotang was pulled back home by her.
Thinking that something had made her angry, I asked carefully, "Xiao Ning, what's wrong?"
Xu Ning closed the door and took off his clothes. Lu Xiaotang coughed and said, "Xiao Ning, Xu Yang and Xu An will be back soon."
“Just come back if you want.” After saying that, he realized something was wrong and his face turned red instantly.
She pinched him and said angrily, "What are you thinking about? I just want to see the wound on your arm."
Lu Xiaotang held her hand as she unbuttoned her clothes and said, "It's okay. It's fine now."
Xu Ning pulled his hand away and said, "Let me see."
Lu Xiaotang couldn't do anything with her, so he had to take off his clothes and show them to her.
It was a gunshot wound. The wound has almost healed. The scar has not fallen off yet. There is some redness and swelling around the edge, but it's nothing serious.
She planned to go to Doctor Han to get some medicine and exchange it with the anti-inflammatory medicine in the space and let him take it for a few days.
But he definitely can't go up the mountain to hunt, nor can he go to chop wood.
Lu Xiaotang was being stared at by her and had no way to go out. He could only pack up the firewood that Xu Yang and Xu An had chopped and put it in the woodshed.
Xu Ning rode his bike back from Doctor Han's place, gave him the medicine and asked him to take it first.
Lu Xiaotang reluctantly took the medicine and put it in his mouth, saying with a smile, "You've taken the medicine and drank the water, can you go up the mountain now?"
"What mountain are you going up? You still have so much firewood from last year. Just let my brother and Xiao An chop some more."
While eating, Xu Ning told Xu Yang and Xu An about Lu Xiaotang's injury.
After hearing this, both of them told him to rest at home and not to worry about chopping wood.
Xu Yang saw Xu Ning go out, and whispered to Lu Xiaotang, "Xiao An and I will be back later this afternoon, and we will go in to see if there is any prey."
Lu Xiaotang warned, "Be careful, don't hit anything too big."
When Xu Ning came in, he saw a few people whispering there, so he asked, "What are you talking about? You're so mysterious."
Xu Yang smiled and said, "Nothing. I was just asking about Xiaotang's injuries."
She glanced at a few people and stopped asking, as she couldn't get the answer anyway.
By the time Xu Ning finished preparing dinner, it was already dark and all the people in the village who had been chopping wood had gone down the mountain.
Xu Yang and Xu An haven't come back yet. She is very worried and has gone outside to check on them several times.
Lu Xiaotang said to her, "Wait at home, I'll go up and take a look."
Xu Ning went back to the house and got a flashlight, saying, "Let's go together. I'm very strong and can take care of anything if anything happens."
Lu Xiaotang knew that he couldn't persuade her, so he went to the kitchen to get a machete, and the two of them walked up the mountain.
As soon as I reached the foot of the mountain, I saw two figures dragging something down the mountain.
Xu Ning quickly took the flashlight and shone it over there, and saw Xu Yang and Xu An dragging a wild boar.
The backpack behind Xu Yang was also heavy.
The few people didn't even bother to say hello and quickly walked back carrying the wild boar.
When he got home, Xu Ning locked the door. Lu Xiaotang had already taken out the knife and was preparing to bleed and skin the wild boar.
The wild boar was estimated to weigh more than 100 pounds, and there was a roe deer and two rabbits in its backpack.
When Xu Yang saw Lu Xiaotang skinning a wild boar, he took out the silly roe deer to deal with.
Xu Ning said, "Let's clean up after dinner."
Lu Xiaotang said, "Xu Yang and Xiao An, you two go eat first. I'll drain the wild boar's blood first. If it takes too long, it won't be able to be drained."
Xu Ning hurriedly served the rice from the pot and asked them to eat first while she helped Lu Xiaotang.
There were so many people, so the cleanup was quick, and everything was done in two hours.
Xu Ning cut some more meat strips and marinated them, and planned to make some dried meat for Xu Yang tomorrow.
Xu Yang and Xu An were tired after a long day, so they packed up and went to bed early.
Xu Ning washed her feet. Lu Xiaotang took the foot washing water out and poured it out. When he came in, he saw that she was already lying on the kang and sleeping.
He got on the kang and was about to hug the person in his arms.
Xu Ning whispered, "Go to bed early. I have to prepare things for my brother tomorrow."
Lu Xiaotang hugged the person tightly in his arms and said with a sullen laugh, "What are you thinking? I just want to hold you to sleep. I don't want to do anything else. Go to sleep!"
Xu Ning...
