【One day no see, handsome again】
October [-]th, Xiayuan Festival.
"October and a half, Qianlong Tuanzizhai three officials." Local customs often worship ancestors and worship water officials on this day.
Early in the morning, Ye Fan got out of the warm bed, arranged the wine, meat and fruit with his own hands, and kowtowed three times to the Ye family's ancestral tablet.
The villagers also went to both sides of the Jinjiang River, lit incense candles, brought small dumplings made of glutinous rice, and prayed for the water officials to record and play the heavenly court, so as to solve the problems of the people.
Li's big stove.
Don't slaughter today, the cooks slaughtered the pig yesterday.
They used to be cooks in the army, even though they were disarmed and became the private servants of the Li family for a long time, they still haven't changed their old habit of being bold.
When Ye Fan went, the master was setting a fire to burn the pig's head.
There was a huge pile of firewood, with three fat pig heads on one side, and the scorching flames jumped two feet high, scorching the pigs' skin black.
Ye Fan leaned over and sniffled, "Uncle Fan, does this smell sticky?"
"It's not a problem, just burn it vigorously, and the pig hair will be clean when it's burnt!" The master's surname is Fan, a black and fat middle-aged man, the flesh on his chin trembles when he laughs, very amiable.
He had great strength, and with a turn of his arm, the three pig heads all changed sides, and the black pig's nose was just facing Ye Fan.
Ye Fan poked it with a stick, with a smirk on his face, "I'll eat you later."
"Xiao Lang likes to eat pig's nose?" The master wiped his sweat and handed the crossbar to the cook, "Master Hou ordered you to keep three pairs of ears."
Ye Fan was stunned when he heard this.
He really likes to eat pig ears, and he has liked them since he was a child. In his original words, they are "crispy and raw, not oily and not greasy".Unexpectedly, Li Yao would remember, and even specially ordered the kitchen to keep it for him.
With a sweet heart, Ye Fan happily went to find his ex-boyfriend.
Today, the Beishan school ground coincided with the big drill, and the soldiers were full of energy and shouted loudly.
Without Ye Fan taking them with them, Fat Tuan, Bai Lu, and Little Goose Boys had already come to watch the excitement.
As soon as the soldiers shouted, they also joined in the fun. After a few months of training, the men have been trained. They can not only resist Li Yao's cold face, but also resist the cute creatures making trouble.
It's not easy either.
Seeing Ye Fan approaching, the little ones gathered around him.
The little geese are already big white geese at this time. I don't know if they have learned from Ye Fanguang to have a long-term mind and not grow up. They are a lot younger than the geese of the same age.
Even though they haven't been fed a few times, they like Ye Fan the most, and every time they see him, they spread their wings and pounce on him.
"Hey, big boy and second boy, stop!"
Ye Fan jumped to dodge. The clothes he just changed were specially worn for Li Yao to see, so they must not get dirty.
Fat Group "heard" his little thoughts, covered his mouth and laughed.
It quietly shared the news with the white deer. The donkey-shaped white deer shook its ears, and its eyes shone with golden light.
When Li Yao saw his sweetheart, his serious face softened unconsciously, and his eyes softened.
He didn't realize it himself, but Li Sanlang could see it clearly.He poked the people around him in surprise, "Do you think that Ye Xiaolang is your brother's real brother?"
Standing next to him was Li Silang, one year younger than Li Sanlang, but half a head taller than him, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a righteous face.
He supported the sword at his waist, with a serious face, "The soldiers below are all watching, and the third brother should be an example."
Li Sanlang rolled his eyes, he worked so hard to bring this guy back from Jinzhou, he was expecting him to beat him up, but he didn't expect this guy to be more rigid than his elder brother.
Ugh!
Li Yao walked past Li Sanlang, and put his eyes on Li Silang, "It's good to watch, you can rest when the bell rings."
"Obey!" Li Silang clasped his fists and responded respectfully.
"Today, there are pig-killing dishes on the stove, so you can use some."
Li Silang paused, "Brother Xie."
Li Yao patted him on the shoulder, his tone was more gentle, "You just came back, take your time to get used to it, don't be impatient."
"……Yes."
There was obvious surprise and curiosity in Li Silang's eyes, the eldest brother seemed not as scary as before.
Li Sanlang froze his head, looked at this, looked at that, his heart was cold and cold - he was disgusted, right?Must be right?
However, neither Li Yao nor Li Silang took care of his sensitive little heart.
Li Yao walked briskly and went straight to Ye Fan.
Li Silang tilted his head curiously, and looked at the thin young man.
——Is this the person A Niang mentioned?
——It looks small, not very powerful, why does the elder brother value him so much?
Li Yao walked towards Ye Fan with slender legs and steady steps.
Ye Fan tilted his head, no matter how he looked at him, this guy became handsome again - in fact, he hadn't seen him all night.
Well……
It's okay to wear black clothes, don't you know that you look extraordinarily tall, handsome and heroic in black?
Fortunately, he also specially dressed up, such a comparison, obviously lost.
Ye Fan tugged Li Yao's collar sourly, and tugged at his belt. He didn't let go of the shiny sleeves either—it's the most annoying thing to see if you can eat or not!
As everyone knows, at this moment, Li Yao's mood is not calm.
The suit Ye Fan is wearing today is exactly what he prepared in the tent that day.The red clothes set off the young man's fair skin and delicate eyebrows and eyes. In his eyes, even the puffy face is so lovely.
This is his teenager.
is his man.
Li Yao's heart was full of love, so he held Ye Fan's hand in full view and strode away.
Ye Fan had to trot to keep up, and occasionally ran into him in a hurry.
The boy's body was thin and soft, sticking to his hard muscles, making people's hearts tremble.
As if on purpose, Li Yao took two steps faster and one step slower, letting him hit.
"What?"
"The nose hurts."
"Hun Dan, slow down!"
"Well……"
Ye Fan complained with his mouth, but his body was extremely honest.
Honestly stuck to other people, sticky, refused to separate.
On this day, the new commander at Beishan Campus was extremely strict, and the soldiers were also enthusiastic.
A louder slogan echoed on the high ground, and could be heard clearly from the other side of the village.
I don't know if it was frightened, but a yellow fruit detached from the trunk and fell to the ground with a bang.
After school, the children were watering the mushrooms on the slope. When they saw them with sharp eyes, they couldn't help shouting: "The fruit has fallen!"
With this cry, more fruit fell from the tree.
The children were terrified and stood there with their eyes wide open.
"Yes, is it broken?" A child said timidly.
All the children became worried-the adults said that these are all grains, and they don't know how many people they can feed. What if they go bad?
The second little brother Guan is also there, and the little guys are living and eating at Ye's house these days - the second sister Ye likes children, and Ye Fan deliberately kept them here to ease her heart.
Guan Erxiao was the first to react, and said loudly, "It must be ripe, just like the persimmons in Uncle's house!"
There were many things last month, and I forgot to pick the persimmons. Guan Erxiao and the little hammer were fighting under the tree, and the trunk of the tree was shaking, and the overripe persimmons fell, smashing their heads and faces.
The little ones didn't care about it, and thought it was "heavenly delicacy", and they ate it with their hands, it was so beautiful.
Hearing Guan Erxiao's words, Little Hammer nodded his head in agreement, "Yes, Xiao Lang said that the fruit will fall when it's ripe."
"Come on, let's go have a look."
The children encouraged each other and walked cautiously into the valley.
The noodles seem to have been negotiated, and they will fall down with a little trouble.
They are not like persimmons. Not only are they as big as coconuts, but they are also harder than coconut shells before drying.
The children grimaced from being smashed, one by one holding their heads and running around.
Such a move causes more fruit to fall.
In this way, the first bumper harvest of the noodle tree on the yellow land was established in the screams of the children.
Needless to say, Ye Fan, the old village chief organized the villagers to pick, oh no, noodles.
The nut shell is hard and not afraid of bumps. Guan Dalang borrowed all the trolleys from Yushuzhuang—in fact, they were all made by Guan Wulang—and everyone hurriedly loaded them into the carts.
There was only a sound of ping-ping-pong-pong, and several large carts were filled in the blink of an eye.
The yard of Ye Fan's house couldn't fit, so he had to pull it to the Beishan school grounds. Li Yao deliberately made room for him to dry his noodles.
***
While everyone was busy collecting fruit, Yuan Erniang had a bad idea.
She wandered among the villagers, secretly inquiring about the origin and planting methods of these flour fruit trees.
The villagers were simple-minded, and seeing that she lived in Ye's house, they said everything they could.
Yuan Erniang wrote them down one by one, and found an opportunity to send the news out.
Yuan Xiucai received her letter, wrote a new one, and sent it to the capital through a special contact method.
None of this escaped Li Yao's eyes.
Ruan Yu was familiar with this kind of thing, followed the vines, and quickly figured out the identity of his family.
"It's the servant of the Ministry of War, Shen Xiong." He took a sip of tea and said impatiently, "Master Hou, do you need to make Yuan scum first?"
"No, don't startle the snake."
Li Yao pursed his lips slightly, and slowly traced the past of Shen Xiong in his mind, an inconspicuous person, the Li family had no grievances with him, so it seems that he was not the one who really planned this matter.
Ruan Yu chirped and said: "I also found out that when Yuan scumbag was in the capital, the surname Shen didn't take him seriously at all. He just thought he was from Daning and wanted to be a backup pawn."
Xu Qiang smiled coldly, "Didn't expect it, this chess piece was not only used, but also helped a lot."
Ruan Yu gave him a blank look, and continued, "I just don't know who the one named Shen is."
Li Yao was also thinking about this matter. The reason why he decided to wait and see what happened was to find out the person behind it.
"It's nothing more than the one in Longting, or the one in Anzhou, and no one else." Xu Qiang poured a cup of hot tea and pushed it to Ruan Yu.
Ruan Yu didn't pay attention to his kindness at all, but shouted angrily: "I'm talking to Lord Hou, can you stop interrupting?"
Xu Qiang looked hurt, "Yu'er, you have been so fierce to me as soon as I came back, won't your conscience ache?"
"Ouch—" Ruan Yu made a vomiting motion, raised her foot and kicked over, "You'd better go back to Jinzhou!"
After finishing their business, the two began to fight unscrupulously.
Seeing Ruan Yu's joyful expression, Li Sanlang's face flickered before Li Yao's eyes.
He had long discovered that Ruan Yu and Li Sanlang looked alike, especially their peach blossom eyes, which became more and more similar the more they looked.
***
According to what was agreed earlier, the villagers who helped look at the land were paid accordingly.
Ye Fan even distributed some to the villagers in Hanjialing,
He could see clearly that it was all thanks to the help of the villagers to catch insects and pull out weeds on weekdays, including this harvest of fruit. Without them, thousands of trees would not have been harvested in three or two days.
In addition, Ye Fan also gave some to the lonely old people in ten miles and eight towns, as well as those who lived in hardship, and patiently told them how to eat them.
Needless to say everyone's gratitude, treating these fruits is more precious than copper coins.
The village was filled with the joy of a good harvest, but Yuan Erniang was full of bad water.
She received a reply from Yuan Xiucai, who asked her to find a way to get some noodles, the more the better.
This really stumped Yuan Erniang.
Although most people in the village got the fruit, everyone guarded it like a treasure, and it was impossible for her to steal it.
There are also countless ones in the Ye family's yard, Dalang's daughter-in-law can't wait to count eight hundred times a day, and even a few scumbags can't hide it from her eyes.
Those on the school grounds were even more impossible. Li Yao arranged for a battalion of soldiers to guard them. At night, there were patrols walking back and forth around the village, and the mice couldn't take advantage of them.
Or say that Yuan Erniang's intentions are not right, but if she exchanges things with the villagers in a good mood, or asks Ye Fan for something, she may not get it, and she will think in a crooked way.
These few days, she was so worried that she was dying, but Yuan Xiucai was in a hurry and threatened to take her back if she couldn't get it.
Yuan Erniang dreamed of Mrs. Hou's sweet dreams all day long, and finally got in touch with Li Erniang, how could she go back?
She thought hard day and night, and finally thought of a way——
These days, Aunt Yuan looked at the bustle and bustle in the village, and she became more and more homesick.She delivered the letter home, but no one came to pick it up, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.
She has been sleepwalking since she was a child, especially when she was nervous.Yuan Erniang also knew that she took advantage of this.
In the middle of the night, Aunt Yuan went out in a daze like the previous few days, wandered into the yard, stared at the moon in the sky in a daze.
Yuan Erniang sneaked behind her, taking advantage of her unconsciousness, secretly took two fruits and hid them in the suitcase.
After thinking about it, I took two more to let my brother know her ability.
Yuan Erniang thought, before Dalang's daughter-in-law did the counting, she would find an excuse to have a big fight with Aunt Yuan and force her back to the county.
I have to say that this plan is really good. Aunt Yuan wanted to go back a long time ago. Not only would the Ye family not stop her, they would even put her on a bullock cart and give her a ride.
The bad thing is that she is too greedy.
When taking the first two, Bai Lu saw it and didn't intend to pay attention to it, but she didn't expect that she took two more.
Now Bailu quit, "Yoyo" called to remind Ye Fan.
Ye Fan didn't wake up, but woke up Li Wuniang from Westinghouse.
Recently, Li Wuniang would come over to sleep with Yu Sanniang from time to time, euphemistically calling it "Guardian Mianguo", but in fact, she fell in love with Second Sister Ye's cooking skills and wished she could eat here every day.
She has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and she has a high level of vigilance. When Bai Lu called her, she woke up. She opened the window and saw someone standing upright in the yard.
She didn't recognize Aunt Yuan, and thought she was here to steal noodles, so she put a sack on Aunt Yuan's head and beat her with a feather duster.
The little lady shouted while beating: "A thief is recruited! Someone is stealing noodles!"
Everyone in the house woke up.
The little white goose also flew out from the cowshed, quacking.
All the chickens, ducks and geese in the village were startled and shouted.
Uncle Yu lit a torch and reported to the village—this was an agreement in the village. If any family recruited thieves, it would remind other families in this way.
When the villagers saw that it was Ye's family, they didn't intend to stay out of it at all. Every household opened their doors and came towards Ye's family.
Strange to say, Aunt Yuan didn't even yell after being beaten up.She didn't wake up until the sack on her head was removed and the glaring flames reflected on her face.
Looking at the faces of anger, surprise or doubt, Aunt Yuan was ignorant.
Dalang's daughter-in-law hurriedly counted, her face became very ugly, "There are few noodles!"
Aunt Yu also paid attention to it, and asked in a deep voice, "How many are missing?"
"Four!"
Four noodles, in the view of the villagers, are forty white pastries the size of watermelons, enough for a family to eat for a whole winter.
Without Ye Fan's words, a powerful woman rushed into the house of the Yuan sisters, searched, and found four big and round noodles from Aunt Yuan's suitcase.
"It's a strange lady, but she's a thief!"
There were also those who knew about the entanglement between Ye and Yuan, and they scolded without hesitation: "There is no good person in the family!"
"I can't stay any longer, send her back!"
"Yes, send her back to Yuan's house and tell her to discipline her properly."
Aunt Yuan knelt on the ground, as if she hadn't recovered, she listened to everyone's accusations without a word of excuse.
After all, Second Sister Ye couldn't bear it, so she ordered a piece of clothing for her, and helped her sit on the straw mat.
Ye Fan also felt that something was wrong, and asked in a deep voice, "Did you take that fruit?"
Aunt Yuan didn't say yes or no, she just muttered: "Just send me back, I want to go home..."
Ye Fan and Second Sister Ye looked at each other, and both sighed.
The two brothers and sisters looked at the cave dwelling to the east at the same time - Yuan Erniang was not woken up by such a big movement, ha ha.
What is the truth, they have vague guesses.
Yuan Erniang is the only one who understands the cause and effect, but blindly hides in the house and pretends to sleep.
She heard Aunt Yuan being beaten and cursed by the villagers, but she refused to explain to her. She only secretly rejoiced that the noodles were hidden in Aunt Yuan's box instead of her own.
