My Beloved Fulang

chapter 8

Bai Yichen opened the bundle and found that the bundle contains grains,a large piece of pork and a small sachet.When he opened the sachet he found few broken silvers.It should be a tael and half,he felt complicated.

The Chen family is a family of farmers,they cannot be considered as a well-off family in the village.When Chen Feiyu was send to school at the town,the Chen family used all their savings.This should be the money saved for the Chen brothers to marry in the future.
Chen Father and Chen Amu must have loved the original owner like their own.

"Fulang"Long Mingyu tugged his sleeves.
Bai Yichen glanced at Long Mingyu and said"Uncle Chen and Amu are too kind to us,we should treat them really well in the future."He didn't know if he understood what he said but nevertheless he told Long Mingyu.Long Mingyu was confused but he nodded his head,he should respect his fulang's wishes.His Fulang is always right.

Bai Yichen set the bundle aside and told Long Mingyu to sit at the stool,he quickly
made some steamed buns and stir fried some wild vegetables.Then they had their lunch.
"I will go up the mountain with Xiaobao to collect mushrooms.Wait here obediently and we will have delicious mushroom for dinner.hm?"

"No I want to go where Fulang goes."

"But it's-"
Smooch*Long Mingyu kissed Bai Yichen's cheek.
"Fulang~."
Bai Yichen knew where this was going to end and sighed.
"Okay but you shouldn't leave my side."
"My Fulang is the best."
Smooch smooch*
Bai Yichen was kissed by Long Mingyu again.He glanced at Long Mingyu and saw him grinning at him.He slowly turned red and stuffed a steamed bun in Long Mingyu's mouth.
"Eat"

After having lunch,Bai Yichen took the peppers and onion leaves to dry in the sun.Then he took a barrel to wash his clothes in the nearby river creak.

Long Mingyu saw him carrying a big barrel so he snatched it from him.
"Your brother Mingyu will do it."
Hearing the word"brother Mingyu" Bai Yichen was shy and angry at the same time.So he glared at Long Mingyu's back with his red face and followed him to the river creak.

As they approached the stream,they saw many fulangs washing clothes and children playing in the river.There were also some men who were fetching water in the wooden barrells.

Bai Yichen came to this part of the river for the first time.The original owner was not allowed to come here to wash his clothes but instead he had to find a remote area to wash clothes and fetch water.His cousin was afraid that he will have more connections with the villagers and more boys will be attracted to him.

When they approached the river creak,the villagers looked at them.
They had known that Bai Yichen was beautiful but since they had never seen him up close,they were surprised to find him this beautiful yet not effeminate at all.

Then the villagers noticed Long Mingyu who was carrying a wooden barrel,he looked so handsome like a literary personal.If they didn't know that he is an amnesiac and a fool,the villagers would have betrothed their gers to him.
The villagers sighed in their hearts,they were really well matched in their appearance.

In the river bank,there were many flat stones where the villagers wash clothes.When Bai Yichen reached the creak he found that all the flat stones were occupied.

He took the barrel from Long Mingyu,took some of his clothes out ,spread it on the ground and let Long Mingyu sit on it.Then he started searching for flat stones so that he could wash his clothes.

A kind looking Amu saw that all flat stones were being used and Bai Yichen was feeling awkward,he felt pity for him. Then he told Bai Yichen "Chen Ge'er,you can wash the clothes here I will be done soon."

Bai Yichen quickly thanked the kind looking Amu and waited till he finished washing his clothes.

Amu quickly washed his clothes and left.Bai Yichen glanced at the back of the Amu and started washing his clothes.When the villagers saw him awkwardly searching for the stone just now,most of them were gloating when they looked at him,only this Amu was kind enough to wash his clothes quickly and left the flat stone for his use.

Bai Yichen quickly washed his clothes and took Long Mingyu with him.When they approached their house, Xiaobao was waiting at the door.When Xiaobao saw them,his eyes lit up and he walked towards them."Yichen, let's go to the mountain."

"Okay let me hang the clothes in the sunlight first."

"Okay~"
Bai Yichen opened the door and let Long Mingyu enter with a barrel full of clothes followed by Xiaobao and him.He closed the courtyard gate and hung the clothes on a hemp rope tied between two yellow bamboo poles.

Xiaobao saw the peppercorns and onion leaves drying out in the sun.He was confused "Yichen what is this?I have never seen them before in our village."

Bai Yichen glanced at him and knew what he was talking about."This is peppercorns and onion leaves,this is spices that can be added in food to make it delicious."
"Really?"Xiaobao swallowed his saliva.
Bai Yichen was amused."when it's dried out I will cook and let you taste it."
"Then I am waiting for your delicious food,Yichen"

Chen Xiaobao is a lovely ger with big round eyes,small mouth and face that still has baby fat on it.He is a foodie and is fond of delicious food so much that his eyes will always light up when he smells something delicious,but he isn't greedy ,he just shares with his closed ones only.

The Chen family had always worried about him,what if he is lured by someone who knows his weakness about food.What if that someone had bad intentions towards their little treasure. But the Chen family didn't know that their little treasure would be lured by someone but that someone would keep him happy all his life.

C

hen Xiaobao reluctantly moved his gaze and looked at Long Mingyu who was always following his best friend."Yichen,is brother-in-law also going with us?"

Bai Yichen looked at Long Mingyu and saw him with his puppy eyes gazing at him"yeah he is."
"Great! then let's go."
Xiaobao was excited since it was their first time going together, without fearing about those baddies.
Bai Yichen packed some steamed buns he made earlier and locked the courtyard gate.Then they went up the mountain.
