Chapter 27 027. His husband is so funny
Lei Li slept peacefully.
She also took the initiative to move a little further away from Zhou Yi, leaving an obvious line between them. Although they slept in the same bed, neither of them touched each other.
Lei Li is quite tall.
Just huddled in the corner.
Zhou Yi felt quite sorry for him. From Lei Li's perspective, he had saved someone out of kindness and happily brought him home to get married - although due to differences in customs here, he only found out that he was the groom after the wedding.
But this husband didn't have a wedding night for more than half a month and refused any intimate actions, which was really sad.
Lei Li was quite nice to him.
The eggs and meat that I was reluctant to eat were given to him to eat, the money that I was reluctant to spend was spent on him, and the cloth that I was reluctant to buy was bought because I wanted to make clothes for him.
We also built a rice-fish-duck symbiotic system for him.
Because he thinks cauliflower and wild onions are delicious, he would pick more of these two when picking wild vegetables. For someone he has known for less than half a month, he has done his best.
And he seemed to have done nothing for Lei Li.
Zhou Yi couldn't sleep for half the night.
Because Lei Li was sleeping soundly next to him, he didn't dare to toss and turn for fear of waking Lei Li up. He couldn't sleep and wanted to go out to practice a few sets of boxing, but he remembered that Lei Dashan had the habit of getting up at night and was afraid of scaring him.
I'm in my forties and not in good health. What if something happens to me after he scared me like that?
Zhou Yi sighed.
Wait until he finds some way to make more money for Lei Li. Lei Li is quite money-loving.
Although it is really stingy.
—
Lei Li slept well.
He had no idea that Zhou Yi blamed himself for half the night because he felt a little cold because he didn't cover himself with a blanket last night. Instead, he was quite satisfied with his bedtime routine that happened almost every night - teasing his husband.
Kissing makes me blush.
I get angry when my pants are pulled down.
When he is angry, he will only talk about reason. If he really can't win the argument, he will resort to violence. But none of them is as severe as Lei Li's bite, and it has no deterrent effect at all.
It just so happened that Zhou Yi was so tall and had such thick arms, and he was extremely fierce when he fought Niu Dali. One punch almost knocked out one of Niu Dali's teeth. It was even more fun because Niu was so timid when he faced him.
——Let’s put aside whether to have children or not, it’s really fun to play with Zhou Yi.
right.
Lei Li was just a nasty bandit leader, what could Zhou Yi do? Beat him to death?
Maybe Zhou Yi will die first.
Lei Li happily got up early and saw Zhou Yi practicing boxing in the yard. He went over and started practicing as well. At the same time, he saw Zhou Yi's expression.
I feel a little depressed.
Lei Li raised an eyebrow. "Why do you look like that? Did I scare you last night? I just took off my clothes and exposed my shirt. Haven't you seen other men with their shirts exposed?"
"Yes."
But other people showing their shirts are not as scary as you, you take off your own and then go to pick up others...
Got off track.
Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "It's none of your business. I didn't sleep well."
After a pause, he continued, "I feel really sorry for always rejecting your requests. Otherwise, after some time, when I find other ways to settle down, how about we get a divorce?"
"What's the meaning?"
Lei Li's good mood vanished instantly. He stared at Zhou Yi with a terrifying look on his face. "Are you planning to use me and run away? Zhou Yi, it's fine if you're just playing tricks on me, but you're also playing tricks on me openly by saying this, right?"
“……?”
Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, "You seem to have misunderstood. I mean, I can't satisfy your request now, so you can find someone else you like..."
"Zhou Yi."
Lei Li narrowed his eyes, staring at his prey like a ferocious tiger. "You seem to have forgotten what I said on the day of our wedding. I saved you, so you must listen to me. You are mine. In life, you are my person, and in death, you are my ghost."
"Even if I die today, you must die with me tonight, and follow me into the same pit and use the same tombstone tomorrow. Do you understand?"
"……Understand."
Zhou Yi nodded hesitantly, "But it doesn't have to be so serious, right? I'm not trying to shirk my responsibility, and I remember what you said. It's just that compared to me, don't you think it would be better to find a more obedient husband..."
"I don't think so."
No one else is as fun as you.
Lei Li's face was expressionless, his eyes dim. "Since you dare to cheat on me and bring up divorce, I'll make sure you know everything from head to toe, inside and out—"
"What does it mean to kill the New Year pig?"
“……?”
Year of the Pig?
Are you talking about him?
It was just livestock before, but now its species has been confirmed. Has it become a pig?
Zhou Yi was silent for a moment, "Is it possible..." He is more valuable than a pig, after all, he is a cow.
"Shut up."
“…”
Well, no chance.
—
The bucket of snails spit out sand for several days.
Use perilla, false angelica, and a five-color pepper, stir-fry over high heat, and it smells delicious, but it's a bit tasteless except for Zhou Yi.
No one in the Lei family can eat spicy food.
Lei Li took a small bite of the five-colored pepper, his brows knitted into a knot. He looked up and saw Zhou Yi eating one pepper at a time. He looked at him strangely for two seconds, "You like this kind of painful thing, are you a little sick?"
Zhou Yi: “???”
Your dad likes it too, why didn’t you tell your dad and only told me?
“It’s a bit spicy.”
Lei Dashan said as he ate, "It doesn't taste fishy at all. This is the first time I've eaten something like this. There's a fragrance that I don't know what it is... Is it this purple leaf?"
"It should be the false caltrop."
Zhou Yi said, "False Trichosanthes is also called fragrant leaf. It is delicious when stir-fried with snails, river snails, river shrimps, and river crabs. It can also be used to make meat stuffing with false trichosanthes leaves."
The Lei family had never heard of stuffed meat.
But Lei Li rejected Zhou Yi's idea of cooking for them and strongly criticized Zhou Yi's desire to be a househusband.
Because meat is expensive.
Lei Li thought that Zhou Yi was just idle and had nothing to do. If he worked for a few days and was exhausted, he would stop thinking about it, so he took him to the mountains to dig yam.
Digging yam is a meticulous job.
Zhou Yi dug carefully for a few days like an archaeologist, and his mental state... became better. He was eager to catch a pheasant and stew it with yam.
He even said, "Dad is not in good health, and Mom is also weak. In addition to doing boxing and fitness every day, you should also eat more whole grains and supplement protein."
“Food supplements are also very important.”
Lei Li didn't believe it.
Then they took Zhou Yi further into the mountains, forcing him to work from dawn to dusk every day, digging hard-to-dig medicinal herbs and finding hard-to-find grass. In order to consume his physical strength, they also made him climb trees to pick fruits and toon buds.
As a result, Zhou Yi, the lunatic, was lying on a tree and saw the ox horns he had been longing for from a distance.
It was a strong wild lemon tree.
The leaves are oval or elliptical, and the stems are covered with long, sharp thorns. Among the bright green branches and leaves, the round or oblate fruits are even brighter green.
Zhou Yi ran straight towards it.
Lei Li thought he had found a pheasant and followed it excitedly, but it turned out to be this thing. "You didn't tell me that this thing could also... do you really want to eat it? It's very sour."
“…It’s really sour.”
Zhou Yi peeled a wild lemon and tasted a little. The sourness was so severe that his features were distorted, but his eyes became brighter. "This is the ox horn I mentioned before. Pick it, wash it, and pickle it with salt to make it sour. It's delicious and appetizing."
“……?”
Lei Li didn't understand for a moment. "Use salt to make it sour? It's already sour enough, why make it even more sour? Shouldn't it be salty?"
“It’s another unique sour taste, different from fresh sour.”
Zhou Yi said, "Salt only inhibits the growth of bacteria. The yeast on the peel will break down the sugars in the fruit under aerobic conditions. When the environment is lacking oxygen, it turns into lactic acid fermentation and produces lactic acid, which is the origin of the sour taste..."
“…”
Lei Li didn't understand.
He slapped Zhou Yi on the head and said, "Let's get to the point. What kind of dish can you make after pickling it?"
“There’s a lot that can be done with this.”
Zhou Yi usually doesn't talk much, but when it comes to cooking he talks nonstop.
"Beef horns can be used to make beef horn sauce, which can be used to dip boiled chicken. It can also be used to make lemon duck, beef horn braised pork, beef horn fish, and dip shrimp... In short, many meat dishes can use beef horns."
"It's vulgar."
Lei Li's face was expressionless. "When I mention eating meat, your eyes light up. When I mention cooking meat, you say 'I can't do it, don't worry, wait a little longer'. You just want to spend my money, right?"
I shouldn’t have picked it up.
Such a waste of money.
“…”
Zhou Yi was silent for a moment, then asked quietly, "Can we dig up this ox horn tree and plant it back? I'm always thinking about it if I leave it here."
"Thieves don't care, but you do... Are you really going to dig?"
Zhou Yi was already digging the soil. Afraid that he couldn't keep the tree alive, he even brought soil from the surrounding area and even stole it from his home to give it to the ox horn tree.
If the other trees hadn't grown too big and had thorns that made them difficult to dig out, Lei Li thought Zhou Yi would have wanted to move them all away and plant them in a row at home.
Zhou Yi paused after hearing this and said, "I do want to, but I'm afraid you won't agree. They take up quite a lot of space... and I may have other things I want to plant, and I'm afraid our yard isn't big enough."
"rest assured."
Lei Li sneered, "It's enough to bury you in a pit."
But Lei Li still helped Zhou Yi dig, and picked all the fruits from several other hornberry trees, filling two backpacks full.
As soon as I got home.
Zhou Yi enthusiastically washed the ox horns, hung them on a bamboo dustpan to drain the water, and then washed several unused jars in the corner of the woodshed.
Neatly placed in the corner.
After dinner.
Wash your hands carefully with soap nuts, make sure there is no oil on your hands and there is no oil in the jar, then put the ox horns in and sprinkle salt on them.
A layer of fruit and a layer of salt.
Finally pour in well water.
Seal the altar.
Lei Li asked, "How long will it take before we can eat?"
Zhou Yi thought for a moment and said, "About a year, we'll be able to eat it in April next year."
Lei Li said with a gloomy expression, "If you keep this enthusiasm tonight, both of our children will be born next year."
A waste of money.
Another jar of salt and several clay pots and jars were wasted. We can only eat them next year... Who will remember this thing next year?
—
Don't mention the ox horns in advance.
After a month, the jar of five-color peppers was finally soaked, and the originally bright and beautiful colors turned into a sauce color.
Zhou Yi opened the forum.
A unique and indescribable smell emerged from the jar, it was the salty fragrance of soy sauce, the spiciness of five-color peppers, and a fermented aroma.
