  Zhou Du's determination was very firm, no matter how much Shen Xi begged and made trouble, if he said he wouldn't give it to him, he really didn't give it to him.

Shen Xi was so angry that he bit a lot of tooth marks on his body, the tooth marks were not deep, they disappeared after a while, and could not cause any substantial harm to Zhou Du.

Zhou Du didn't care, and quietly watched Shen Xi from the sidelines, scratching his heart, scratching his lungs and jumping his feet, angry and anxious.

After two days of fussing, Shen Xi saw that he still didn't let go, perhaps because he was thinking about it, so she calmed down.

All the things to go to Kyoto have been packed, except for some livestock in the yard that have not been resolved.

After they went there, they couldn't come back for several months or half a year, and some half-grown chickens, ducks and geese in the yard couldn't be kept.

Shen Xi was reluctant to deal with it for a long time, still thinking whether it would be better to kill and eat it, or sell it for money.

He hesitated, and didn't come up with an idea until he was about to leave the house. Zhou Du couldn't stand it anymore, and early in the morning, before he woke up, he caught all these livestock in cages, and carried them to Li. fish house.

Once they left, they had to ask Li Yu's mother, Li Su, to help look after the house. Although Shen Mu, as Li Yu's master, should help take care of the house, but Shen Mu was Shen Mu and he belonged to him.

He has troubled others several times, but he can't help but say that these half-sized livestock can't be sold for a lot of money, so it's better to send them out as a favor.

Li Yu's house is not far from Zhou and Chen's family. Walk to the village and turn a small road.

The Li family wasn't very rich at first, until after Li Yu studied medicine with Shen Mu, he took care of minor illnesses from time to time, picked some medicinal materials and sent them to the sellers in the town to live a much better life.

The last time Qin Yi made a move, it was eighty taels of silver. Li Yu is the eldest brother in the family. He has three younger siblings under him. He didn't hide the money for himself. Aunt Li still saved for him.

When Zhou Du arrived at the Li family, everyone in the Li family got up, everyone was busy working in their own foundations, even the three and a half children, Tao Hua, Xing Hua, and Xing Wang, were helping.

When they saw Zhou Du appearing, they all froze in unison.

Even though they also interacted with Shen Xi, Zhou Du seldom came out to deal with people, and even if they occasionally met on the road, they were just nodding acquaintances and not familiar with each other.

Now that Zhou Du suddenly appeared in front of them, he felt like the sun was coming out from the west today.

Li Su happened to be helping to lift the soil they dug up on the foundation. When he saw Zhou Du coming, he quickly put down the basket in his hand, looked behind him, saw no other figures, and smiled at him embarrassingly: "Why, little one?" Xi didn't come with you."

"He hasn't gotten up yet," Zhou Du explained casually, put down the cage in his hand, and explained briefly: "We will leave tomorrow, and I have to ask you to take care of the family, which is not respectful."

Li Su looked at it Looking at the livestock in the cage, he waved his hands again and again: "I can't, I can't, take care of it, and I don't waste much energy, how can I take your things."

Zhou Du has never been very good at people, seeing that she won't take them, he said bluntly. : "If you don't accept them, they will starve to death."

Li Su: "..."

Li Su was caught off guard by Zhou Du's blunt words. This means that she doesn't accept it, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't accept it.

When she was in trouble, Li Yu jumped up from the foundation and came to the side to clean her hands. Knowing Zhou Du's temperament, she said to Li Su: "Mother, take it."

Li Su hesitated: "But..."

"Don't be so," Li Yu came over after washing his hands, and muttered to her, "I don't have the peanuts and red dates harvested last year at home, and these things can be put away again, so they can eat them on the way Just right."

Hearing what he said, Li Su thought it was a good idea, nodded, wiped his hands on the apron on his body, and went to get red dates and peanuts for Zhou Du.

After walking two steps, she seemed to think of something again, backed up and whispered to Li Yu: "Don't you also go to Kyoto, give them all, what do you eat on the way?"

Li Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "My mother , How much can I eat in one mouthful?"

Li Su's mind has been dizzy from the busy schedule these days, and hearing what Li Yu said, he thought to himself, this is also the reason.

Without any consideration, he went into the house and picked up two sacks, one sack of peanuts and one sack of dried and washed red dates.

It never occurred to me that Zhou Du and Shen Xi couldn't finish eating so much.

Li Su put the sack down in front of Zhou Du, and said with a smile: "You give me these livestock, and I have nothing to give you back. Take these peanuts and red dates back."

Zhou Du: "..." Zhou Du

just opened his mouth to refuse, Li Su said again: "You all left, and my little Yu'er also left with you. It's me, Xiao Yu'er's father, and a few children at home. No one eats these things, and it's a bad life. It's better to be an excuse for you on the road."

She was obviously imitating Zhou Du, but she said it more humanely to Zhou Du.

Zhou Du couldn't refuse her anymore, so he had to go home with two sacks on his shoulders.

As soon as he got home, Shen Xi, who hadn't washed up yet, hurried up to him with bean bags and snowballs, and said eagerly, "The house was burglarized. When I woke up, all the livestock I was feeding were gone!"

Zhou Du Hearing what he said, he didn't rush to answer, put down the sack in his hand, took a red date from the sack and stuffed it into his mouth: "Is it delicious?"

Shen Xi subconsciously chewed a few times, nodded: "Very good Sweet, delicious."

Halfway through the meal, he frowned, and said displeasedly, "I told you that something was lost at home, what did you do for me?"

"I didn't lose it," Zhou Du fed him another one Red dates, "I traded them for these."

"These..." Shen Xi noticed the two sacks that Zhou Dukang had returned, and said with wide eyes, "You sold all the livestock I raised?"

"No " Zhou Du briefly explained, "I originally wanted to give it to Li Yu's family, but their family gave me these."

Shen Xi: "Okay..."

Shen Xi originally heard that all his poultry had been sold, and his heart ached. He was still a little bored, but when he heard that Zhou Du gave it to Li Yu's family, he immediately relaxed.

All his poultry are raised for his own food, and he feeds them with real grain, unlike the grass leaves in the village. Du sold it to him in a daze, and he would bite him to death!

Now when Zhou Du mentioned Li Yu, he immediately patted the back of his head, a little annoyed: "It's really stupid to marry someone, why didn't I think of giving them all to Aunt Li earlier, and I have been entangled for so many days."

Zhou Du: " ..."

Everything was packed, and the house was properly arranged. When they left home the next day, they checked the house inside and out again, and after confirming that there was nothing missing, the family got into the carriage and left slowly. Taoyuan Village.

The itinerary was arranged early. They first arrived at Shudu by horse-drawn carriage, and then boarded a boat from Shudu to Kyoto.

The distance from Taoyuan Village to Shudu is not too far, and they will have to ride in a carriage for several days on the way. This time, it will take a long time for the boat and carriage. Qin Yi never took Shen Mu to ride a horse again, and the two of them squeezed the carriage together with Zhou Du and the others. .

The carriage was not big at all, and there were three Zhoudu Shenxi and Li Yu sitting in it, plus two live animals, bean buns and snow balls.

As soon as they entered, the carriage, which was not spacious, became even more crowded.

Shen Mu looked around at the surrounding family, thought for a while and said, "Why don't Ping An and I go out to ride horses."

Li Yu immediately said: "It's okay, Master, let's huddle together and have fun."

Shen Xi is so smart Ah, rolled his eyes, climbed up the pole, got up and sat in Zhoudu's arms: "No, no, it won't be crowded."

He vacated a seat, and the carriage became much more spacious in an instant. Everyone was relieved, and they didn't care how they got tired of being together.

Shen Xi succeeded in rubbing against Zhou Du's knee, this subtle movement could not be noticed by others, but Zhou Du could really feel it, raised his eyebrows slightly, hugged his hand, and gently pinched his The back of the hand, let him restrain himself a little.

With so many people in the carriage, Shen Xi didn't dare to be too presumptuous, once Zhou Du reminded him, he would be honest.

He didn't dare to be presumptuous, but Doubao and Xuetuan didn't take it into account, the space vacated by Shenxi just left a place for them to play.

These two are used to playing around in the huge yard, but now they are huddled in the crowded carriage, they can't use it, and they don't have a good time playing. As soon as Shen Xi's place becomes available, the two of them will occupy it.

Zhou Du chased them away with his feet.

Xuetuan understood, and immediately curled up again, and retracted to the original place, only Doubao was still in a daze, unable to react, and was stunned in place.

Zhou Du wanted to catch the beanbags, but was stopped by Shen Mu: "Wait for them to play, this journey is boring, watching them play can also relieve fatigue."

Zhou Du thought so, so many people sat on the carriage at once. People, there is no place to sleep if you want to sleep, everyone just sits like this, it's better to watch two balls play.

Zhou Du was about to call Xue Tuan out, but Shen Xi got excited from somewhere, found a ball of thread from the bag, and threw it in front of Xue Tuan.

Xuetuan is so smart. As soon as the ball of thread rolls over, it holds it down with its paws, picks up the ball of thread with its mouth and throws it into the air.

The bean bag here reacted and wanted to catch the ball of thread thrown by Xue Tuan.

It's a pity that the carriage is too crowded, and Doubao is not a cub like it was when he was a child, and he can't use it. In the end, he can only pounce on the carriage as a whole wolf, watching the ball of thread, and brushing past it.

Its appearance of not being able to catch the thread balls and having nothing to love in life amused everyone.

The ball of thread landed at Li Yu's feet, Li Yu picked it up, and wanted to throw it back to the bean bag, but he used a little force, and it was about to hit Zhou Du.

The snow ball squatting in the corner jumped up and grabbed the thread ball with his mouth, and it landed lightly on Zhou Du's shoulder, avoiding the risk of Zhou Du being beaten.

This series of agile movements stunned everyone in the carriage, Shen Mu even took them away and clapped his hands to say hello.

He applauded Xuetuan, Xuetuan could feel it naturally, got off Zhoudu's shoulder with a ball of thread in his mouth, walked up to Shen Mu step by step with his tail flicking, put down the ball of thread in his mouth respectfully, and turned the fox down Nodding, as if thanking you.

Li Yu was a little dazed, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Snow Tuan is too smart."

Li Yu praised Xue Tuan, but Xue Tuan turned around again, and leaned over to it, his eyes widened in shock .

Everyone's eyes were attracted by the snow ball. While Doubao was happy, he couldn't help but also feel lost. He got up from his horse, shook his hair, stood aside, and lowered his head, wondering what he was thinking.

Xue Tuan seemed to sense its loss, and stretched out his claws to tickle the hair on its body.

The two have been together for a long time, and there is still some tacit understanding. When Doubao saw it hooking his hair, he immediately bowed his head.

Snowball crawled from its head to his back, and walked back and forth on its back, sometimes from the wolf's head to the wolf's tail, and then from the wolf's tail to the wolf's head.

Doubao has indeed grown up now, but no matter how big a wolf is, it will not be too big. Doubao's back is not broad and thick. Xuetuan walked on it very steadily, and his claws did not hurt Doubao.

Although it is just a simple walk, what is tested is the mutual trust between the two.

Xuetuan had a great time playing on Doubao's back, walking faster and faster, and finally jumped lightly while pressing Doubao's head.

The bean bag seemed to know what it was going to do, and immediately rushed to the place where it was about to land, letting him land firmly on his back.

It's a beautiful match!

Everyone in the carriage couldn't help applauding for them.

While applauding, Shen Xi said to Zhou Du behind him: "Now I don't have to worry about what to do if I have no money when I get to Beijing."

Zhou Du asked him: "How should I say it?"

Shen Xi looked at the two little ones, and beamed with joy: "With the two of them here, when we have no money, we'll go juggling on the street, and maybe we can earn more than we do by opening a shop."

Zhou Du's mouth also showed a little smile He doesn't know Xuetuan's age, but he knows about Doubao's age. Thinking that Doubao is only one year old, he asked, "Does this count as child labor?"

"It shouldn't be," Shen Xi glanced at Seeing the two little ones playing happily, "After all, I have a wife, and it's time to learn how to make money to support the family."

Zhou Du couldn't refute for a while, and then echoed: "That's right." After the

carriage drove all the way, the two little ones Played all the way, and provided a lot of jokes for everyone during the period.

But there are also times when you are tired from playing, and when you are exhausted from playing, the two cubs retreat into the corner of the carriage, cuddling each other to rest.

After walking all the way, Shen Xi was also tired, and fell asleep in Zhou Du's arms.

Zhou Du lifted the hair behind him to prevent it from being crushed, and coaxed softly: "If you're tired, go to sleep."

"Well," Zhou Du's arms were big, and Shen Xi felt comfortable curled up like this , so he agreed With a sound, he lay on Zhou Du's arm, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Seeing that Shen Xi was sleeping comfortably, Qin Yi couldn't help asking Shen Mu beside him: "Are you sleepy?" The

carriage bumped and jolted, making people drowsy, and Shen Mu also tried to be brave: "A little bit."

Qin Yi wrapped him in his arms involuntarily: "Go to sleep."

Everyone in the car was familiar with them, and Shen Mu also let go of her shyness, and lay down in Qin Yi's arms with peace of mind and slowly closed her eyes.

Only Li Yu opened his eyes, looked at the snowball bean buns in the corner of the horse, then at Zhoudu Shenxi on the opposite side, and finally took a cautious glance at Qin Yi Shenmu.

Biting his lips secretly, he suddenly felt that he shouldn't get in the carriage.

But he rolled his eyes, and in the end he didn't get up and leave the carriage. He sat firmly on the spot, took out the medical book from the bag without embarrassment, and read it slowly.

Learning makes him progress!

The itinerary was a bit tight. When they passed by Baoshan County, although Zhou Du and Shen Xi wanted to go down to see how their store was doing, if they delayed like this, they would miss Qin Yi's return to Beijing to report on his work.

In the end, it was still nothing, and went straight to the capital of Shu without stopping.

At the wharf of Anning County under the capital of Shu, there was already a big ship waiting for them.

As soon as they arrive, someone will help them carry their luggage, and they only need to go to the ship's cabin to choose a variety of rooms they like.

The boat is so big that you can run a horse on it. The bean bag snow ball that was suffocated in the carriage, as soon as you get on the boat, let go of the girl and play happily on it.

Fearing that the two of them would fall into the water after having too much fun, Shen Xi even specially greeted the guards on the boat and asked them to watch over them.

The guards all knew that this was the nephew of their future mistress's family, so they responded well and did not dare to neglect.

After Shen Xi made an explanation, he and Zhou Du went to choose a room with a window that could see the river outside.

Opening the window, he felt the sea breeze blowing in from the outside, and said to Zhou Du: "It's good here, you can breathe in when it's stuffy."

Zhou Du took out the quilt they brought and put it on, seeing him leaning on the window, The hair on the back was blown up, and he got up and closed the window halfway for him: "Don't let the wind blow against your head, it will give you a headache."

Shen Xi smiled contemptuously: "It's so comfortable."

After spring, it will enter early summer, and the land of Sichuan is already sweltering, and now the river wind blows, as if it can blow away all the heat.

Zhou Du closed the window, and there was only one opening for ventilation, so he said to him: "It's comfortable, but don't blow too much."

Shen Xi touched his nose: "Got it." Taking a

boat is no different from taking a carriage, the same The only difference is that the bumps on the boat may not be as bumpy as on the carriage, and it is also bigger than that on the carriage.

Shen Xi is a restless person. After visiting the inside and outside of the boat, he finally chose to bury himself in the cabin and study the food with the recipe.

It may be that Qin Yi had already prepared for it. The ingredients in the cabin are very rich. For these ingredients that can be used without spending money, Shen Xi is very happy to toss.

So the ship hadn't sailed for two days, and the food on the whole ship had been greatly improved, not to mention that Zhou Du and the others didn't see the same food every day.

Sitting at the dining table, Shen Mu saw many dishes he had never seen before, pointed to one and asked, "Xiaoxi, what are you doing?"

Shen Xi looked at Shen Mu and pointed He answered: "Fried fish steak." "Fish steak?" Shen

Mu was puzzled, picked up one with chopsticks, and looked around, "This doesn't look like fish steak either."

Zhou Du held a fish steak, stretched out his hand and gestured to Shen Mu, "I improved a little bit, I pulled out the fish bones inside, I stuffed shark fins in, and I wrapped it in cheese, which smells like fish. It's very good when combined with the taste of cheese, you all have to try it."

Shen Mu still didn't quite understand: "I understand what you said about fish and cheese, but you spent a lot of time picking out the fishbone and stuffing it with shark's fin, right? It seems overkill."

Shen Xi looked sideways at Zhou Du's outline, and blinked: "It's unnecessary, my family Zhou Du doesn't eat fish bones, so I'll make shark fins for him, it's not troublesome at all."

"Oh." Shen Mu understood, didn't What else to say, lower your head and slowly taste this pan-fried fish steak.

As soon as he lowered his head, his collar slipped down, and the dense red marks on his neck could no longer be covered, and they were all exposed.

Extending from the neck to the back of the neck, one can see at a glance how much Qin Yi loves him.

Shen Xi didn't think it was anything at first, but when he thought of Zhou Du's damn three-month punishment, he ground his teeth unconsciously.

If it wasn't for Zhou Du's non-cooperation, he wouldn't have stayed in the cabin every day to study whether he was eating or not.

Seeing how Zhou Du was eating slowly, the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became. Once the meal was over, he pulled Zhou Du back to his room.

Shen Mu didn't know what the two of them were doing. After eating, he was tired all night, squinting at Li Yu who was still eating, and said sleepily: "Little Yu'er, today you will Review by yourself, and master will go to have a rest."

"Okay." Li Yu didn't dare to look directly at the marks on Shen Mu's body, and after hearing what he said, he nodded blankly, and continued to eat with his head down, which is difficult for ordinary people to taste on the table. delicacies.

Eating makes him happy!

Just after eating, Zhou Du was dragged into the room by Shen Xi. Zhou Du thought he was tired, spread out the folded quilt, and said softly: "If you are tired, take a rest."

"I'm not tired," Shen Xi said. Pressing Zhou Du's hand that spread the quilt, he asked him with bright eyes, "Is today's fish steak delicious?"

Zhou Du didn't expect him to ask this, after recollecting the taste, he gave him affirmation: "Not bad. "

Shen Xi came to Zhou Du's side, and said side-by-side: "Then I'll cook you delicious food every day from now on, okay?"

He was so enthusiastic all of a sudden, Zhou Du keenly sensed something was wrong, and replied inappropriately: "You cook delicious food every day."

Zhou Du's slippery answer broke all of Shen Xi's intestines at once, which made him feel quite troublesome.

After thinking for a while, he changed the subject and said, "Did you see the imprint on little uncle's body?" When

he said this, Zhou Du instantly understood his intention, and followed him, "I saw it."

While eating Glanced at it.

Shen Xi approached, eyes flickering with light, and continued to hint: "Then you don't have any ideas?"

In fact, this is not a hint, it can be said that he directly wrote his thoughts on his face.

Zhou Du didn't agree with him, pretended not to understand, and continued: "What do you want me to think."

"Just..." Shen Xi bit his lips, and boldly said his thoughts, "Better than Aunt Ping An , and try to make my mark more than that of my little uncle."

After finishing speaking, he understood the provocation of men very well and said, "You don't want to be said that you are worse than a man who is nearly forty years old, do you?

" When a man hears this, he can't control his anger, throws himself on him, and shows off his glory on him!

Shen Xi thought very well...

But Zhou Du is not an ordinary man, he is an ordinary man.

Hearing this, a little smile appeared in his eyes, and he said lightly: "If I am not as good as him, you don't know the most." It

is because of the clarity that he is greedy.

He who is used to eating big fish and big meat suddenly made him a vegetarian every day, which was too bland and unaccustomed to him.

Seeing that Zhou Du's oil and salt would not enter, Shen Xi refused to be fooled at all, pursed his lips, and had no choice but to use his trump card.

He took Zhou Du's hand, led Zhou Du to the chair on the side of the room, pushed it down and sat down.

Zhou Du also wanted to see what other tricks he had, cooperated with him, and let him toss.

As soon as he sat down, Shen Xi in front of him knelt down on one knee in front of him.

Zhou Du was so startled that he wanted to stand up from the chair: "What are you doing?"

Shen Xi remained unmoved, and still pressed Zhou Du on the chair, wrapped his arms around his waist, and pressed his fingertips over and over again. He fiddled with his belt, raised his red neck, his eyes were slightly wet, and said softly, "If I give you this, it's fine, okay?"

Zhou Du raised his eyebrows lightly, looking at Shen from this angle Xi, it's really unique, especially if he said it again.

undeniable.

Indeed, very exciting.

Zhou Du's Adam's apple slipped slightly, and he put his fingertips on his knees and flicked a few times, staring at Hui Shenxi.

Change your mind.

But kids should be punished for doing something wrong, right?

He swallowed the desire in his throat, stood up without hesitation, walked away from the chair, and refused without giving Shen Xi any chance: "I just finished eating, so strenuous exercise is not suitable."

Shen Xi: "????? ?"

The author has something to say: Zhoudu's happiness is beyond our experience (biting a handkerchief)
