Chapter 9 Full of overflowing joy

Qin Lang saw the woman running towards him with a bright smile on his face, he was stunned for a moment, nodded and said "um", a little puzzled where her overflowing joy came from?

Didn't he just chop a stake and come back? Why did she show the joy and smile of a general returning from a hundred battles?

However, Su Jin took the reassurance pill, and his heart that was floating in the air suddenly fell to the ground, and said with a smile: "We will eat yam and lily porridge tonight, and I have washed the wolfberry vegetables, and I will add two handfuls of them to cook later. You can eat it!"

Qin Lang looked at her, "Okay!"

The two of them quickly finished their dinner, and ate the yam and lily porridge with the original aroma of the food, and the body suddenly warmed up, as if the fatigue of the day had been relieved.

Not long after dinner, Qin Lang rushed Su Jin into the house and went to bed.

The night is cold and heavy, and the cold wind is whistling. Even if the fire is burning, it will still feel very cold in this open yard.

Su Jin also understands that her current physical condition cannot tolerate stubbornness, and she is really tired after walking a long way today and working hard for a day. All the joints in the body were indescribably sore, and the calf was even more painful, so he obediently went into the room and lay down.

Lying on the bed, I still felt cold, but at least I was mentally prepared and could barely stand it.

She huddled in a ball, silently thinking about tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the future.

I suddenly thought of what I had unconsciously leaned on the people around me last night. My face was hot, and I couldn't help but ask myself: What should I do tonight?

To rely on or not to rely on?

Think about it, let’s just let it go.

So, when Qin Lang fell asleep, after a while, the titular daughter-in-law came over to him naturally and hugged him. The originally knitted brows relaxed obviously, and it looked a little quiet and peaceful.

Qin Lang lost his temper, sighed secretly, moved his body, but still didn't drive her away.

Qin Lang got up the next day when there was just a hint of light.

As soon as he got up, Su Jin gently opened his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.

In fact, she also woke up, but when she realized that she was holding Qin Lang, she was too embarrassed to move, so she pretended to be asleep.

This is also a matter of mutual understanding between the two.

Su Jin also got up afterwards. Their time was limited, but there was a lot of work to be done, so she had to help.

"Why do you get up so early?" Qin Lang said when he saw her just after lighting the fire.

Su Jin smiled and said, "I can't leave all the work to you alone!"

At this time, the eastern sky was white with fish belly, and the star with a strong sense of existence hung brightly in front of it.

Su Jin shivered, let out a sigh of relief, and went to the stove to bake a fire to warm up his body. Then he quickly filled a clay pot with water and put it on the stove to burn.

"What are we going to do in the morning?" Su Jin asked with a smile.

Forgive her because she really doesn't know much about rural life and can't give any constructive advice.

Qin Lang glanced at her and said, "Let's enclose the yard first. First build a fence around it. When I come back this afternoon, I'll go to Lizheng's bamboo forest to get some bamboo branches, put them in and tie them."

"Okay, listen to you," Su Jin nodded, but couldn't help but say, "We always trouble Lizheng's family, will their family have any opinions?"

The county magistrates are better off managing now. If they really provoke Lizheng's family, it will be somewhat troublesome in the future.

Especially, don't let Li Zheng's wife have any opinions, in case the wife's family is provoked by others

Qin Lang didn't expect her to think so thoroughly and meticulously, so he said, "Don't worry, I told Li Zhengbo and Auntie that I will help their family work during spring ploughing, and don't need to worry about meals."

Qin Lang is a real person. He said that helping people work in Chungong must be real work. He will never cheat or cheat. It is true that he did not take advantage of his family. On the contrary, it was Lizheng's family who took advantage.

"Oh!" Only then did Su Jin feel relieved, and said again, "I will help you along with me then."

Qin Lang glanced at her: "Let's talk about it!"

With her small body, does it make any difference whether or not to help? Qin Lang said heartily.

The two were busy driving piles to surround the yard.

There is no hammer, only stones.

Su Jin held the stake, Qin Lang lifted the stone and slammed it down, driving one end of the stake firmly into the ground.

The area they want to fence is not very wide, and there's no need to make it too good if they don't live here next year.

After the twenty or so wooden stakes were driven down, the sky gradually became brighter.

The horizontal bar is firmly tied to the wooden stake with mountain vines horizontally, and the simple fence is made. When the bamboo branches are inserted and tied, it is a fence courtyard.

Seeing that every household in the village got up one after another, Qin Lang asked Su Jin to rest for a while, he went to fetch water for Lizheng's house, and by the way borrowed a bucket to pick up a load for his own use.

When Su Jin was cooking, Qin Lang said that he was going to Lizheng's home to bring some straw back and spread it on the ground to expose it to the sun. At night, he could put a thick layer on the bed to keep out the cold.

Su Jin's eyes lit up, and with a slap on the forehead, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Yes, yes, straws can keep out the cold, or my husband is smart, hee hee!"

The corners of Qin Lang's lips curled up, and he heard her husband and her husband call a few times, and he was used to it, and he didn't seem to hate it.

The breakfast is corn lily porridge, and as usual, a lot of washed wolfberry sprouts are added.

The two of them had breakfast and spread the straw out in the yard. Su Jin put the collected herbs aside, and used rattan to wrap around the door of the thatched hut several times to form a dead knot. Qin Lang left.

Today is different from yesterday. There are yams and lilies in the house.

The mountain vine is thick and strong, and it is wrapped in layers and tied in a dead knot. Unless it is cut with a knife, it cannot be opened at all, which is also equivalent to a strong lock.

It took more than two quarters of an hour longer than yesterday to reach the destination. The soreness of the body, especially the soreness of the legs, made Su Jin so tired that he could barely lift his feet after walking for a long time.

She understood that this was caused by overwork yesterday, her body suddenly increased the amount of labor, and there must be a natural running-in process, as long as she persisted for two or three days.

Today, Qin Lang took Su Jin straight to the wild chestnut, and Su Jin was in high spirits.

This piece of wild chestnut looks like three or four acres.

The chestnut tree grows tall, not many big trees can grow on three or four acres.

The so-called wild, naturally impossible to be as neat and tidy as the planted chestnut forest, among which there are many messy trees, vines, etc., you have to be careful when walking in it.

Wild chestnuts are good for steaming, stewing, or cooking porridge. Even if you throw them on the stove and bake them in ashes, they are still delicious.

Su Jin seemed to have smelled the aroma of fried chestnuts with sugar, and smiled: "Let's go in!"
