As a result, on the night when he returned to the cave, after finishing his dinner, Chen Xi couldn't wait to swing Lei Che's arm with his little paws, begging Lei Che to teach him how to weave a small basket.

Seeing the little guy's interest was so high, Lei Che naturally couldn't bear to refuse, so he taught Chen Xi his skill.

In the following days, this routine of life was still maintained. Lei Che got up early and took Chen Xi to exercise for a while, and waited to send him back to the cave before going out to hunt, while Chen Xi stayed in the cave to weave small baskets.

In the afternoon, when Lei Che went to the open space, Chen Xi followed behind with a small basket on his shoulders, and when his grandfather was working, he pouted to dig wild vegetables.

In the evening, watching the warm bonfire, my grandfather turned the furniture upside down with wood, and he still wove small baskets. Within a few days, he accumulated dozens of them.

After a few days, Chen Xi had accumulated a lot of small baskets, and Lei Che had also accumulated a lot of furs from prey, so he planned to go to the market and wait for the furs to be pawned in the pawn shop for money, so that he could buy something back. Improve the quality of life of the little husband.

Chen Xi was served by Lei Che every day, his little face became much rosier, and his small body was no longer so weak, but he had grown a few ounces of flesh, and all of them grew on his small belly and buttocks On, fleshy, very cute.

This day, Lei Che and Chen Xi got up early in the morning when it was just dawn. After the two of them finished exercising, they returned to the cave and began to prepare things to sell in the market.

Fox fur, deerskin, antlers, and the bearskin and paws of a half-sized grizzly bear, and even a not-so-young wild ginseng, all of which took on the shape of a human. This was Lei Che's accidental appearance when he was hunting. He was overjoyed to dig it out and brought it back. This is Lei Che's achievement these days, he wrapped it in a bag and proudly carried it on his shoulders.

As for Chen Xi's things, there are not so many tricks. They are all small baskets, but the number is a bit surprising. There are more than seventy, which makes Lei Che a headache just looking at them. There are so many, how can they take them to the market? ?

Lei Che tried to convince the little guy that he didn't need to take so much at one time, and he might not be able to sell it. It would be the same to take a little less and wait until the next time he went to the market to sell it, but the little guy refused to agree no matter what, with big eyes After a turn, he came up with his own idea and used straw ropes to string up the small baskets one by one. Chen Xi wrapped the stringed small baskets around his body, holding them in his arms and carrying them on his head. , Wrapped himself into a scarecrow. He only showed his big eyes and blinked at Lei Che.

Couldn't bear to look directly at it, Lei Che slapped his forehead, without the face to look, and silently turned his head away.

And Chen Xi didn't feel ashamed at all. He cheerfully grabbed Lei Che's corner of his robe, tried his best to maintain his balance, and followed Lei Che towards the foot of the mountain step by step, just like a pregnant woman. Like a potbellied beast.

The distance from Yangzi Village to the city is not short. With the strength of Lei Che and Chen Xi's feet alone, it would take at least half a day to walk. Fortunately, Lei Che's brain is good, and he met a carriage pulling grass on the way. Lei Che took a small basket from Chen Xi to discuss, begging the groom to take them for a ride.

Anyway, it was on the way, and the groom was kind-hearted, he agreed after a little hesitation, and accepted the small basket that Lei Che sent in front of him.

Lei Che was naturally overjoyed, and after saying some words of thanks, he dragged his little husband to climb on the hay in the carriage and gave it away in a small basket, but he didn't take back the money. The stingy meat is so painful, after climbing into the carriage, he still twisted his bitter face reluctantly.

Lei Che smashed the little guy's awkward face with his jaws, took a bite of that fleshy cheek, and comforted him in a low voice: "Baby, it's just a small basket, so give it to someone else." , Besides, they still carry us, Xiaoxi is so ingenious, at worst, just make up another one, can it work? Be obedient."

Hearing this, Chen Xi's complexion became better. He nodded slightly, and then nestled into Lei Che's chest, but his round almond eyes swept around, looking at the scenery along the way. Being so big, it is the first time I have the opportunity to go out of the countryside and into the city, so I am inevitably curious about everything around me.

The journey was also quite boring, and the atmosphere was so quiet and embarrassing. The groom waved his horsewhip once and for all, turned his head and glanced at Lei Che, and then started talking without warning.

"I don't know which village the two of you are from? This time you are going to the city, but do you want to buy something?"

Although Chen Xi was eccentric in front of Lei Che, he was shy by nature, and would be shy whenever he met strangers. Turning into a little coward, he hesitated and didn't know how to reply, but it was Lei Che who had a carefree personality and could talk to anyone.

"This big brother has good eyesight, that's right, Fulang and I are going to the city to sell these small bamboo baskets, and then come back for something, and Fulang and I are from Yangzi Village, I don't know which village the eldest brother is from "

"Oh, I'm from Yangzi Village, I'm from Wangjiagouzi, this little bamboo basket looks really good, but your husband wove it?" "Yes, it was woven by my brother's husband, and the family has accumulated a

lot That's why I thought about going to the city to sell it." Lei Che glanced at the little guy in his arms, and told the truth without hesitation.

"That brother is really lucky, to find such a capable husband, unlike my brother, who was victimized by a money-grubbing matchmaker, and married a lazy man who can't do anything, and all depends on my brother I, I am so miserable that I can't say anything!"

This sentence was long enough, but Chen Xi only heard two words - capable, and raised his chin as if to demonstrate against his father, Chen Xi felt his tail froze. It's almost up to the sky.

Lei Che was so amused by the little guy that he couldn't help but answer, so he shook his head helplessly, and could only follow the groom's words and continue the topic.

"Brother doesn't know something. Although my brother's husband is very dexterous, he is also arrogant and has a very bad temper. He will give my brother a face every now and then!" Lei Che suppressed a smile, and continued to chat with the groom. joked.

Hearing this, Chen Xi was about to explode with anger. How could he be arrogant, how could he have lost his temper? It's because the grandfather always said some insane and hooligan words, which made his little face flush with embarrassment, so he couldn't help but speak back.

Raising his brows, he gave Lei Che a hard look. If there were no outsiders present, Chen Xi would have decided to argue with Lei Che.

But when Lei Che's words reached the groom's ears, he was envious.

"Brother, you really don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings. You have made this young husband beautiful and capable. It's normal to have a little temper. Unlike me, the husband at home is ugly and useless. He can't help the old man with anything. Brother, I will share."

"Brother, don't say that, being beautiful also has its disadvantages, and being ugly also has its advantages, and there are advantages and disadvantages!" Lei Che didn't know how to comfort this miserable groom, his stomach Li didn't have much ink at all, so he could only pick up people's teeth, cooked some chicken soup for the soul, and poured it directly on the groom's head.

Hearing what Lei Che said, the groom really wanted to open up a little.

"Brother's words are justified. Also, although the husband in the family is ugly, he is also honest and responsible. Unlike a family in the village, he married a beautiful woman, and ended up running away with other men within half a year. Oh, hey, this beautiful brother is full of high spirits, and ordinary peasants can't keep it."

Hearing this, Lei Che's heart sank, he squinted his tiger eyes slightly, and squinted at Chen Xi. glance.

The master's glance at him made Chen Xi's heart shudder. The aura of pretending to be a tiger just now disappeared suddenly, and he wringed his fingers not knowing what he did wrong.

As a result, at this moment, Lei Che spoke. Although he was responding to the groom's words, his eyes were fixed on Chen Xi.

"Big brother, this kind of husband who ran away with others is unfaithful to her husband. I don't know how you solve this kind of thing in your village?" "Oh, you said this, if it is

true If you run away, there is nothing wrong with it. If you are caught and brought back, you will have to let the man deal with it. If you quit, you may sell it. If you meet a ruthless man, you may be beaten to death or dragged to Shentang."

" Oh, that's it." Lei Che's answer trailed off, and it sounded weird. After he finished speaking, Lei Che laughed loudly, patted Chen Xi's shoulder with his palm, and said with a grin, "It's a good thing, brother. Fu Lang is also an honest man, he won't run away with others, it is impossible for my brother to have such a day, but even if there is, my brother is not so ruthless, no matter how you say it is a one-day husband and a hundred days of kindness, if you are killed It's too much, with my brother's temperament, the most he can do is to break his hands and legs, and he will be beaten every day when he thinks about it, and it's fine to keep a cripple."

Chen Xi is not stupid, how can he not understand what the master is when he hears this? Are you knocking the mountain to shake the tiger, killing chickens to warn monkeys?

This cruel man also said that he was not cruel, but actually wanted to break his hands and feet. He was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on the surface.

Moving his little butt to get closer to Lei Che's side, Chen Xi raised his face, showing his cute little canine teeth, and smiled flatteringly, then stretched out his little paws to touch Lei Che's thick arms, and leaned his little head against it.

Well, very good, with the guts of this bastard, he must not dare to run away with others. Look, this little guy is showing his loyalty to him?

"Are you scared? I'm joking with you, Xiaoxi, don't take it seriously. How can I be willing?" Lei Che put away his dangerous face just now, and changed into a nonchalant hip-hop look again. He wrapped his arms around Chen Xi's shoulders, Facing that small face, 'baji' took a bite, how could I be kidding? When he said that just now, this unscrupulous old hooligan showed such a serious look for the first time, clearly swearing, Chen Xi had no doubts at all, if he was caught after running away with others, his hands and feet would be broken, Keep in a cage.

He secretly rolled his eyes, this old fox, you don't want to set him up.

Chen Xi only realized after silently slandering him in his heart, it seemed like Grandpa kissed him just now, ah ah ah! ! ! How can I kiss him? There are outsiders here! It's over, it's all because of this shameless old man who made him raise his head to meet people!
