  Zhou Du watched Shen Mu call Shen Xi out of the crowd, and thought that Shen Xi would come out of the room to cook soon.

As a result, he waited and waited but couldn't wait for Shen Xi to come out of Shen Mu's room. He felt a burning pain in his stomach, so he pursed his lips, stopped waiting, turned around, and went to the kitchen with a bean bag.

The kitchen was still cleaned up, so Zhou Du went in, opened the cupboard where the food was stored, and searched inside to see if he could find any leftovers.

it is a pity.

Shen Xi is well aware of the food intake of his family, in order to avoid waste, there is almost nothing left in every meal.

Even if there are leftovers, they will end up feeding the bean buns and some chickens and ducks raised in the yard.

Zhou Du searched for a long time, except for a pile of semi-finished ingredients, he couldn't find even half a steamed bun, so he was a little discouraged.

When he was looking for something, Doubao squatted obediently at his feet, with his mouth open, waiting to be fed.

Zhou Du didn't even care about himself, so naturally he didn't care about it.

After searching around but not finding any food, Zhou Du glanced at the semi-finished ingredients and thought, it's really not possible, why don't he try to make it himself?

He doesn't know how to stir-fry, so making noodles shouldn't be difficult?

Zhou Du's eyes were lowered, and his expression was a little hesitant.

"What are you doing?"

Shen Xi came out with a bunch of things Shen Mu gave him, went to his room to put them away, didn't see Zhou Du in the yard, thought he had gone home, remembered that everyone hadn't eaten breakfast yet , Hurry into the kitchen to prepare.

As soon as he stepped in, he saw Zhou Du standing in front of the cupboard with downcast eyes, thinking.

The warm winter sun slanted in from the window and fell on Zhou Du's side face, casting a shadow in his eyes, making his usually stern face less indifferent and more gentle .

As soon as Shen Xi opened his mouth, he regretted it. He should appreciate such a beautiful scenery for a while longer.

Hearing Shen Xi's voice, Zhou Du quickly withdrew from hesitation, turned sideways, and looked at him.

With just one glance, he froze slightly.

Although Shen Xi is still wearing the same clothes as before, it seems to be a little different from the past.

Zhou Du couldn't tell what was the difference, but he just felt that the current Shenxi was more eye-catching than usual.

Although he usually wears this attire, it always gives people the illusion of a child who has not yet grown up. Now that he is wearing this attire, the childishness on his body has faded away, and he is more mature, but he is still agile, with a kind of The feeling of budding, waiting to be picked.

Zhou Du's eyes suddenly lit up.

Because the sun in front of him was too much, covering Shen Xi's sight, he could only see his figure vaguely, and his expression was not clear.

So Shen Xi perfectly missed this scene. He stepped forward and saw that the cabinet had been rummaged through. He guessed Zhou Du's mind without thinking, and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Zhou Du responded: "Hmm."

As soon as Shen Xi approached, Zhou Du could smell that special smell on him, it wasn't very strong, but it always lingered at the end of his nose, tempting people to get close to smell it.

Zhou Du thought so, so he did it. He lowered his body, hugged Shen Xi from behind, put his chin on Shen Xi's shoulder, and sniffed lightly.

There is a fragrant and sweet sunshine smell, which makes people feel very comfortable, even the cold in winter seems to be expelled.

Hearing Zhou Du say that he was hungry, Shen Xi poked his neck to look in the window to see what ingredients could be made for Zhou Du, and was caught off guard by Zhou Du who hugged him from behind. As soon as he was stunned, he felt Zhou Du leaning against him. He rubbed a kiss on the shoulder.

The heart stopped for a moment, and then began to beat violently, thumping as if it was about to jump out of his mouth.

Shen Xi took a short breath, stiffened his back, and let Zhou Du lean on his shoulder, not daring to move, and asked in a trembling voice: "What's the matter, aren't you hungry?"

"Well," Zhou Du Du closed his eyes and sniffed the sweet and warm breath on Shen Xi with enjoyment. It was as comfortable as if the haze in his heart had been purified and cleared up in an instant. Hearing Shen Xi's question, he didn't deny it, and said again "I'm so hungry."

Shen Xi's ears began to burn uncontrollably, he had never heard Zhou Du speak in such a gentle and low voice, his heart beat and stopped, stopped and beat, making his whole body There was a slight tingling feeling flowing from head to toe, and even he spoke cautiously, with a trembling voice: "Then...then let me cook for you, okay?"

"Okay." Zhou Du responded, But still holding Shen Xi in his hands, reluctant to let go.

Seeing this, Shen Xi had an abnormal flush on his face, turned his head and asked, "What's wrong with you?

" , hugged Shen Xi tighter, buried his head on his neck, smelled the smell of his body deeply, and sighed, "The smell on your body is very comfortable, I want to hold you for a while."

"Okay, you want to hug him for a while." Hold for as long as you want." Shen Xi was slightly taken aback, raised the corners of his lips a little, and sighed in his heart, sure enough, the little uncle was still the little uncle who could turn a strong man into a soft man, and only then did he use his success power to Let Zhou Duken go from passive to active.

The two hugged each other for a long time in the kitchen, but neither of them noticed the gradually resentful eyes of the silver-gray creature at their feet.

It put away its already tired mouth, and no matter how affectionate the two people in front of it were, it opened its throat and howled: "Wow——"

This howling sound can be said to have exhausted Doubao's strength. , It's not a big deal, it directly forcibly pulled out the two who were wallowing in the gentle village.

Zhou Du reluctantly let go of Shen Xi, returned to his usual indifferent expression, and glanced at Dou Bao coldly, as if there was a knife in his eyes.

Dou Bao trembled in fright, shook the hair on his body, and stepped back with his hind legs.

Shen Xi slapped his own hot and red face with his hands, and seeing the bean bun that was trembling from Zhou Du's fright, he couldn't bear it and said: "It's hungry too, I'll cut some meat to feed him, you go first Sit outside and have breakfast for a while."

Zhou Du looked away from Dou Bao, went out without listening to Shen Xi's words, walked to his busy kitchen table, and asked, "Is there anything I can do to help? "

Shen Xi raised the knife in his hand, and quickly cut some pieces of meat and fed them to the bean buns on the ground. When he heard Zhou Du's initiative to ask for help, he was surprised, and refused: "I'll make a quick one to make stewed noodles. You don't need to help."

Zhou Du ignored Shen Xi's words, turned his eyes around the kitchen, sat directly on the small bench in front of the stove, and said softly, "Let me help you light the fire."

Shen Xi turned around and walked away. , saw Zhou Du's tall and big body bent in front of the small stove, the small bench couldn't hold his long legs, so he could only bend up, looking at the stove seriously, as if he was studying how to use this thing.

Shen Xi recalled that Zhou Du didn't even know how to use the stove back then, and he learned how to do it after teaching him once. Now this stove...

Shen Xi stopped his thoughts, and asked anxiously: "Can you?"

"It should be possible." Zhou Du looked at the stove, it was very similar to a stove, and he was already proficient in using the stove, so it shouldn't be too difficult to burn the stove according to the method of using the stove.

As Zhou Du said, he rolled up the sleeves on his arms, exposing his strong arms, picked a small bundle of firewood from the pile of firewood behind him, took out a fire pocket and ignited it, and lit the firewood in his hand , into the stove.

After waiting for a while, the firewood in the stove could not be extinguished, but it tended to burn more and more intensely. He added some neatly chopped firewood into it, and asked Shen Xi, "Is that so?

" Xi watched the whole process of Zhoudu's operation, saw that he didn't use flint, but directly lit the fire with a fire, and pulled the corner of his lips lightly, but saw that he had successfully lit the fire, and looked like he was asking for praise, but he still didn't care. He was stingy with his own praise: "Yes, you did a great job, really amazing, you burned it so well for the first time, you are extremely talented."

Hearing Shen Xi's praise, Zhou Du didn't have any expression on his face, just a faint smile. nod.

After Shen Xi boasted, he said, "However, you can scrape the ashes under the fire again, so that the firewood will burn faster and it will not be easy to turn off the fire."

"Okay." Zhou Du picked it up with tongs Opening the ashes that obstructed the burning of the firewood, as Shen Xi said, the firewood in the stove burned more violently.

Shen Xi looked at the flames burning in the stove, and rolled his eyes: "That's it, you did a great job, Zhou Du, you are amazing."

Shen Xi put down the kitchen knife in his hand, and flew to Zhou Du, Pecked on his side face: "Count it as your reward for helping me today."

After kissing, he returned to the kitchen table and continued to chop vegetables.

Zhou Du stretched out his fingertips to press the temperature left on his face by Shen Xi, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He didn't come back to his senses until the firewood in the stove was about to go out, and quickly added more firewood to the stove. Gather some firewood and keep the fire going.

The two of them dawdled for a while, and it was almost noon when they made this breakfast. Fortunately, there were a lot of people in the Shen family who came to see Xiong today, so everyone didn't care about the lateness of the breakfast.

During the time when they were eating, many people came to see the bear.

They all had enthusiastic smiles on their faces, and the bear was in the yard, so it was not easy for Shen Xi to drive them away, so he had to let them go.

On the other hand, Shen Mu watched more and more people coming, frowned tightly while eating, put down the bowl after eating, wiped his lips with a handkerchief, and said, "If you don't keep doing this, I'm afraid even the neighbors People from several villages will be attracted, and there will be more and more people coming, so it is not easy to entertain."

Zhou Du nodded in agreement, and several waves of people came during the meal break, causing Shen Xi to eat just now. After two mouthfuls of noodles, you have to entertain. You are already hungry and you have to take care of others.

Shen Mu threw the handkerchief that had wiped her lips into the basket, and said with a final word: "Therefore, there is no delay. After dinner, you go to set up mules and take the bear to the county town to sell, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

Shen Xi just took two mouthfuls of noodles and swallowed them, and said anxiously: "But little uncle, my bacon hasn't been smoked yet."

Shen Xi originally wanted to spend these two days doing these things, but who knew he was so anxious.

Shen Mu shook his head indifferently: "I won't do it, just don't eat meat next year."

Shenxi made bacon to save it for next year. Taoyuan Village is too far away from the town, and there are no pork sellers around, so it's hottest in summer When I bought it from the town, the meat was rotten. The best way is to make more bacon these days, so that I don't have to worry about running out of meat in summer.

Seeing Shen Xi's sullen expression, as if he had completely forgotten his existence, Zhou Du put down the bowl and chopsticks, and reminded Shen Xi: "With me here, don't worry."

As soon as Zhou Du made a sound, Shen Xi felt warm in his heart, but then he shook his head again: "The mountain is too dangerous, so you don't go there in the future." What

Shen Xi said to Zhou Du last night was not just a joke, but also It's not a sudden idea, but a decision after careful consideration.

The mountain was too dangerous, even though Zhou Du had the ability to protect himself, Shen Xi still couldn't stop being frightened.

If he could make money, a lot of money, Zhou Du wouldn't have to take risks in the mountains.

Shen Xi lowered his head and rubbed his right wrist, which was tied with a ribbon, a vague idea had gradually been sketched in his heart, but he couldn't find an entry point yet.

Zhou Du lowered his eyes and did not agree.

He knew the dangers in the mountains, and he would be worried if he went up to Shenxi alone. He also had a vague idea in his heart, but he needed money to support him.

The only way for him to get money is to go up the mountain. Before he makes money, he has to go up this mountain.

"Are you two ready to eat?"

The mule that Zhou Du bought before has been fostered in Shen's house, and he only needs to find out the cart board that Shen Xi bought and put it on, it can be used to hump Zhou Du's black bear.

After eating, Shen Mu went to the warehouse to pick up the car boards, but he moved randomly, he didn't know where he moved to a certain mechanism, the warehouse that was originally neatly organized by Shen Xi was scattered all over the place, It suddenly became messy, and even buried the cart that could have been taken out directly.

Shen Mu came out of the warehouse with a sullen face, saw Zhoudu and Shenxi who were still chatting and laughing, and called out.

Shen Xi responded: "Finish."

Shen Mu: "Come and help me get the scooter."

"Huan, good." Shen Xi stood up and was about to help.

Zhou Du took a step ahead of him: "I'll just go."

Zhou Du took the initiative to help Shen Xi a lot today, and Shen Xi didn't refuse some small things, and said with a smile: "Okay."

Zhou Du nodded and turned to Shen Xi Mu went.

Shen Mu saw that it was Zhou Du who came, and raised his eyebrows: "You can't, you have to let Xiaoxi come."

When he raised his eyebrows, Zhou Du also raised his eyebrows and said: "I can do it."

Shen Mu is better than Zhou Du . A little lower, now Zhou Du looked down at him with all his might, he really didn't have the guts to challenge Zhou Du, so he had to turn sideways and let Zhou Du go in.

Zhou Du stepped into the warehouse, raised his sharp eyebrows even higher, and looked at Shen Mu strangely, is he dancing in the warehouse?

Although Zhou Du didn't come to Shen's warehouse very often, he knew that Shen Xi would tidy it up regularly so as to keep it tidy at all times.

Looking at the warehouse now, all the things on the shelves fell to the ground, not to mention, even the whole shelf was smashed down, and the cart that could have been taken out was buried firmly.

Although he knew that Shen Mu was the king of destruction, he never expected that he could destroy the entire layout of the house by just taking anything.

Shen Mu was sized up by Zhou Du strangely, and he faced up to him without embarrassment, and said softly: "I say you can't do it."

Men can't say that they can't, Zhou Du lowered his lightly raised eyebrows, and said nothing. After crossing obstacles one after another, I came to the cart covered by the shelf, removed the shelf, and prepared to put it aside.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhou Du let it go, the wooden spikes on the shelf caught a sack hanging on the wall. The sacks are relatively fragile, and Zhou Du didn't notice it when he was hooked, so he exerted a little force.

The burlap

sack burst open instantly, and a sack of fiery red dried peppers gushed out of it, immediately making the already messy warehouse even more chaotic.

Zhou Du: "..." Shen Mu pulled her lips in a funny way, and didn't want to talk nonsense with Zhou Du any more, so she said to Shen Xi directly: "Xiao Xi

, come here."

Putting down the things in his hands, he wiped his hands on his apron, walked over, and asked curiously: "What's the matter?"

Shen Mu moved away so that he could see the scene inside the warehouse more clearly.

Shen Xi only glanced at it, then immediately widened his eyes, looked at Zhou Du and Shen Mu, and asked curiously: "Did you two fight in the warehouse?"

Shen Mu: "Nothing."

Zhou Du Du: "No."

Shen Xi looked at Zhou Du and then at Shen Mu, seeing both of them with the same heavy face, Shen Xi couldn't help but burst into laughter, and went in to tidy up while laughing.

This has not become a family yet, the life of the family is like this, Shen Xi has already imagined how chaotic life will be after becoming a family in the future.

But that's okay, the Shen family is small, and they can't be lively if they want to be lively. In this way, the family is at least a little more angry.

The three cleaned up for a while, and Li Yu, who was cleaning up at home, also came. The four quickly restored the warehouse, pulled out the mule to set up the cart, and called the villagers who watched the excitement outside to carry the black bear onto the cart.

Some villagers who haven't seen enough asked: "Let's go now."

Shen Xi thought up an excuse early in the morning: "Yeah, this bear meat has been kept for a long time, and the meat will not taste good, so we have to sell it sooner. " It's worth the price."

Hearing what he said, the villagers had no objection: "That can't be delayed, it's better to sell it sooner."

"That's not true," Shen Xi smiled and agreed, then turned to Li Yu and said, "Little Yuer, you will give it to you." Mother agreed, please help me take a look at the house while we are not at home, and help me feed the animals by the way."

Li Yu nodded: "It

's all agreed , don't worry." The explanation is over, and Zhou Du is no exception. Before leaving, he found Chen Qingshan, and told him about his house ideas in detail, and asked him to help look at it: "Money is not a problem."

Chen Qingshan smiled: " Now everyone in our village knows that you have made a lot of money by hunting bears in Zhoudu. Of course, I will not be polite to you, so you can sell it for money without worry. I will keep this house for you and repair it comfortably. Your money."

Regardless of whether Chen Qingshan is telling the truth or lying, as long as he is willing to do his best for Zhou Du's house, Zhou Du will be satisfied with him.

Since a mule cart could pull no less than four people and a black bear, Shen Xi still rented Luo Fu's bullock cart, and he would drive the mule with the black bear, while the rest of the people could just take the bullock cart.

After Zhou Du told Chen Qingshan to come over, he glanced at Shen Xi who was alone with the black bear in the same car, and said flatly, "I'm in a mule cart with Shen Xi." Hearing

this, Shen Xi winked at Zhou Du Blinking, he immediately agreed and said: "Okay."

Li Yu stood up and disagreed: "No, you are too heavy, and it will be very difficult for Xiaoxi to drive. You can take the ox cart with us.

" Don't make trouble for Zhou Du.

Zhou Du glanced at him, and said coldly: "I know the strength of the mule I bought best."

Li Yu was most afraid of Zhou Du, and when he saw his indifferent expression again, his righteousness just now withered away, and he said sullenly: "Okay, but if Xiaoxi is too strenuous, you should think about him more. "

Zhou Du nodded: "I know."

Shen Mu didn't care what happened to Zhou Du and Shen Xi, he spread the bedding on the ox cart as soon as he got in the car, and planned to sleep all the way to the county seat, when he heard their conversation, he said: " Well, little fish, you don't need to worry about the creek, lie down and sleep with Master obediently, it's rare that the ox cart is spacious today."

Li Yu thought about it, without Zhou Du, he could feel more at ease, listening to Shen Mu The speaker took off his shoes and climbed into the ox cart covered with bedding, lay down in it and went to sleep comfortably.

I just felt a little sorry for Xiaoxi, but Xiaoxi himself agreed, so he didn't take it to heart.

Zhou Du looked at him, the big black man on the Shenxi mule cart and the bean bag squatting in the corner, and raised his eyebrows silently.

Shen Xi seemed to see what Zhou Du was thinking, pulled him into the car, and comforted him: "It's okay, just squeeze in and get warm."

"Yes." Zhou Du just wanted to be with Shen Xi, but he didn't really want to sleep When Shen Xi said this, he no longer envied the comfort of Shen Mu and Li Yu's car.

As soon as the two sat down, Shen Xi raised the mule whip in his hand, and drove the mule to the county seat.

At first, Shen Xi was worried that the mule would not be able to bear the weight of two people and a black bear. After walking for a while, he didn't see any discomfort in the mule, so he calmed down and talked to Zhou Du: "Zhou Du, you really bought this mule. Well, it's not hard at all to carry the two of us and this big black guy."

Zhou Du glanced at the mule that was walking like flying, and said without any surprise: "You are too light."

Shen Xi herself was thin and nestled in Zhou Du's arms There is a small one in the house, and sometimes Zhou Du wonders if he can lift him up with one hand.

Hearing this, Shen Xi's ears felt hot again. Comparing Zhou Du's attitude towards Li Yu and his attitude towards himself, the sense of difference suddenly appeared.

This kind of feeling that he is only good for him makes him both moved and satisfied in his heart, and he can't help showing a bright smile on his face.

Zhou Du saw that he was smiling happily for no reason, and asked in puzzlement, "What are you laughing at?"

Shen Xi raised his eyebrows, and said triumphantly, "Laughing, you are so good at talking now."

Zhou Du twitched the corners of his lips, and asked him: " If it was before, what do you think I would say?"

"In the past, you must have kept a straight face." Shen Xi imitated Zhou Du's expressionless face without hesitation, and said in a deep voice while pinching his throat, "You are all dry. You're shriveled, you're short, and mules don't bother to pull you."

Zhou Du curled his lips slightly, showing a shallow smile, combined with the sunset glow in the sky, let Shen Xi see it shocked.

He wiped away the non-existent saliva on his lips, and asked Zhou Du proudly, "How, do I look like a student?"

"Quite like." Zhou Du nodded and affirmed him, "You have mastered me." The essence of speaking."

"That is," Shen Xi raised her neck, and said inadvertently, "In order not to be angry with you, I used to think about how you will hurt me in your next sentence before I talk to you, so that no matter what you say I won't be angry if I say anything."

After Shen Xi finished speaking, he realized that he was too complacent, and said that he showed his mouth, so he quickly closed his mouth.

Zhou Du was slightly stunned, saying in his heart that it was a lie that he wasn't moved, but he didn't know what to do to make it up, so he rubbed his head and said softly, "It won't happen in the future."

Shen Xi rubbed against his palm, and narrowed his eyes in comfort: "Of course I know you won't do it anymore. You haven't hurt me for a long time. I can't stand what you say now."

Listening to him like this As soon as he said that, Zhou Du couldn't help becoming curious: "Why can't I resist the method?"

"It's just..." Before Shen Xi said, he looked around, but there was no one around, and Shen Mu's ox cart was far in front. Before they talk, feel relieved, and boldly said to Zhou Du: "Every time you finish speaking, let me, I really want to sleep with you."

Zhou Du: "..."

Shen Xi explained again as he spoke "It's not the kind of simply sleeping with you under the quilt, but taking off your clothes, the kind you told me last night, understand."

"You don't have to explain it so clearly." Zhou Du pursed his lips lightly. , "I understand."

The author has something to say: No one...

The bean bag in the car: You think I am dead.

Black bear in the car: Oh, I'm dead I can't hear you.

The mule driving the carriage: ... I am the worst.
