LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 227 - Farmhouse
At night, Xu’s mother could not sleep over and over again. Father Xu knew what she was up to, he sighed and said in a low voice: “Don’t think about it, the second child is slippery, but he’s not a wicked person and can’t do anything illegal. He is so clever and calculating. Either you make money or you lose money, it won’t be too bad anyway, there’s nothing to worry about.”
Xu’s mother was annoyed: “Then leave him alone? He is now hiding his brothers and parents, as the old wife said, how about guarding against thieves? How can this work? That Su family is also talking about singing all day long. It sounds good, there is no truth in your mouth, no matter what?”
“I don’t want to control it, but can you think about it? The second couple has a big idea. In this division, the wings are hard. If you don’t accept it, why should we go and ask for it? Besides, you Didn’t you see it? The third child is also annoyed by the second and second couple. Let’s follow the third. If you focus on the second, you are not afraid of chilling the heart of the third? You forgot that the second family insisted on separating families. It doesn’t care about the third child?” Father Xu turned over, turned his back to Mother Xu, and sighed again, “Not deaf or dumb, not a family man, we can’t control anything at our age.”
Mother Xu looked at the roof, her eyes moist, “When we were young, in order to raise these six children, in order to support our parents, we both got up early and worked greedily. Now that we are old, we can’t control when we see that the children are wrong. What do you want for a lifetime?”
“You just got into the horns, think about it, what’s wrong? The boss has a temper and can’t do anything, so honestly buy more land, and it’s best to have a son for his son to study in the future; He hasn’t earned any less since this time. The days are better and he can eat meat. Apart from being selfish, what can he suffer? The third child is now sensible, better than his elder and second brothers, and none of the children are useless. There is no one who is idle and robbing the house, this is not enough? I think you just have a better life and are not satisfied.”
“I’m not satisfied? Why am I not satisfied? You tell me clearly.” Xu’s mother pulled Xu’s father and insisted to make it clear to him.
Father Xu waved her away and pushed her away, “You think about it for yourself. From now on, don’t worry about the children’s nosy when they can’t eat. Everyone is in their own hands. Who is impatient to let you take care of them.”
Of course Xu’s mother also knew this truth, but it was difficult to let go of emotionally, and the quarrels with Xu’s father at this time also let go of the depression in her heart, and soon fell asleep.
The next day Xu Zifan went to Zheng Chuan to enter the mountain early in the morning. Before leaving, he told Xiao Lian to help him turn over the medicinal materials twice. Xiao Lian was a little nervous and did not dare to touch his medicinal materials. After Xu Zifan demonstrated several times and turned over once by himself. Only then took the courage, and was so happy that I could help, and paid special attention to the medicinal materials. Su Qianyun wanted to take a piece of medicinal material to the hospital to ask how much it was worth while people were not paying attention, but she didn’t even find a chance.
Xu Zifan did not intend to go deep into the mountain this time, but instead planned to make a circle around the edge of the mountain and collect as many medicinal materials as possible. This position does not delay Zheng Chuan’s hunting, and the two of them walked fast, so they walked together. When Zheng Chuan was hunting, Xu Zifan took a break, and when Xu Zifan was picking medicine, Zheng Chuan took a break, and he gained a lot along the way.
When he reached a small stream, Xu Zifan reached out and probed, his eyes lit up: “Zheng Chuan, why is the water a bit warm?”
Zheng Chuan took a look and pointed to the deep mountain, “There is a cave not far from here. The pool inside is hot, which may affect this side.”
Is the pool hot? Isn’t that the hot spring? Xu Zifan immediately got up to go there, “You quickly take me to see, if it’s hot, it would be a good place to take a shower.”
Zheng Chuan grabbed him and frowned in disapproval, “There are beasts in it. There is nowhere to run in the cave, so you can’t go.”
Xu Zifan had his own Shaohua radar, but couldn’t tell others, so he looked at the direction of the hot spring and sighed. He looked back at the slightly warm stream, put the bamboo basket on the ground, and untied his clothes, “Then wash it here, all the sweat all over the road, Zheng Chuan, do you wash it too?”
Zheng Chuan immediately backed up a few steps, frowned and looked at him, and said, “I’ll go over there to guard you. I don’t like washing outside, and it’s not safe in the mountains. Hurry up.” He walked out nearly a hundred meters after he finished. , Sat behind the tree with his back to Xu Zifan, helping him look out.
Xu Zifan shook his head and muttered as he undressed, “Zheng Chuan is also too careful, but it’s normal. His master didn’t exist in the mountains. It’s good to be cautious. No wonder he is better than other hunters at a young age.”
[You were so cautious before you bound with me. You are very similar. Congratulations on making your first friend. 】
Xu Zifan got naked, swam in the water, stood on the edge of the stone to wash his body, and said with a smile: “Do you know that I can be friends with him?” He doesn’t like to talk, and I don’t know what to say to him, can’t it be God’s friendship? Speaking of it, isn’t Zheng Chuan’s character very similar to that of the hero in Duo Li? He has good skills and good health. He takes good care of himself, which means he can do housework. How about introducing him to Xiaolian? It should be good to take care of me if it is close 】
[According to the analysis of the list of people in the whole village, Zheng Chuan is the best choice. Other men are 90% machismo and despise women, including your father and brother. 50% of men will beat women, 63% of men are dutiful and filial, but men and women here are used to it and don’t feel wrong. Another 85% of families have conflicts between mother-in-law, concubine, and aunt. 48% of families are very poor and women can’t get enough food. 】
Xu Zifan paused, frowned, and got serious, “This is really a problem, Zheng Chuan is a good candidate, I have to observe it carefully. By the way, Xiao Lian is only fourteen and can stay… for another three years. I have to hurry up to open a medical hall to test talents, she can have more choices. No wonder that the ancients paid so much attention to male males, a male male in the family really carried the hope of the whole family, even if the sisters are married well, will anyone support them in the future? Most of it depends on brothers. Unfortunately, I can’t change the feudal society. I can’t make men and women equal. If I can’t control others, I can control Xiaolian. I haven’t met my two sisters yet. I have a chance to know how they are .”
[You talk a lot, and Zheng Chuan shouldn’t have nothing to talk to. 】
Xu Zifan smiled, 【It’s not that you can’t talk about anything, you can’t just talk casually, and Zheng Chuan is very sensitive and doesn’t like the kind of hypocritical greetings. 】
Zheng Chuan was a little upset listening to Xu Zifan’s continuous squirming, frowning, holding his bow and arrow. He looked around and found nothing, so he closed his eyes and slumbered for a rest.
It is not convenient for Xu Zifan to take a bath at home. Everyone basically wipes it. This time, there is a little stream with a little temperature, and he can be regarded as having a good wash, and the body and mind are refreshed. With this natural bathing place, he can take a bath every day from now on. When he builds a big house in the future, he must repair a bathroom and a courthouse. These two things were the most painful thing for him in ancient times.
Xu Zifan climbed ashore to put on his clothes, and found another painful thing, his long hair was still wet! He is the most annoyed of pulling his hair every day. It takes a long time to dry without a hair dryer after washing his hair. He wiped the kerchief for a long time, and walked towards Zheng Chuan and said, “Zheng Chuan, can you do me a favor? I’m not very good at getting my hair without a comb, can you help me tie it?”
Zheng Chuan opened his eyes and uttered two words indifferently, “No.”
Xu Zifan choked, smoothed his hair and looked at him, “Are you okay? Why do you seem to be angry?”
“Nothing, can you go down the mountain?”
“Oh, I will get my hair done and I will leave.” People are unwilling to help. Xu Zifan is excusable when he thinks about it. In ancient times, it seemed that he couldn’t help others to pull their hair casually? And it seems to be very close, their relationship is not so good, and it is normal to be rejected. He awkwardly pulled his hair as neatly as possible, and pained his scalp countless times, causing his face to wrinkle.
【Do you need 108 ways to edit and scalp hair? 】
[Thank you that it was a life system before. I need it very much. When I go back, I will learn how to pull the hair. Maybe I can be a hairdresser in the next world. Xu Zifan gritted his teeth and smiled, fixed his hair, patted his clothes and said, “Okay, let’s go.”
Zheng Chuan hunted a total of three hares, four pheasants, and two dog badgers. Xu Zifan collected six medicinal materials, two sweet wild fruits, and a bunch of mushrooms and fungus. The two went down the mountain with a lot of things. Xu Zifan looked at the dog badger covered in treasures and asked, “Zheng Chuan, are you going to sell the dog badger or keep it for yourself?”
“Sell.”
“Is it only meat or whole? How much?”
“Whole one, one 300 liters.”
Xu Zifan was surprised: “One is only 300 characters? You sell less? Dog badger skin can be made into a fur coat, which looks good and keeps warm. The meat has medicinal value, can nourish blood, strengthen the body, and refining fat can also cure burns. Burns, if you clean it up, you have to sell at least one for 800 liters.”
Zheng Chuan stopped, looked at the dog badger in his hand, then looked at Xu Zifan, “You want it?”
“I really want it, but I just saved some money, I guess my parents will have to worry about buying this…”
“This one is for you. I will receive you 200 texts. Thank you for telling me this.” Zheng Chuan stuffed a dog badger into Xu Zifan’s hands, looked at him carefully and asked, “Can you please help me if I hit the prey in the future? How much is it worth?”
Xu Zifan was stunned and nodded immediately, “Of course.”
“Okay, let’s go.” Zheng Chuan finished speaking and continued to stride down the mountain.
Xu Zifan raised the dog badger in his hand and looked at it, thinking that he did not take advantage of Zheng Chuan, so he accepted it comfortably. He hurried to catch up and asked, “Zheng Chuan, can you nitrate leather? My family won’t make this.”
Zheng Chuan stretched out his hand and took the badger back, “I’ll deal with it and give it to you.”
“how much is it?”
“No, 200 text is enough.”
“Oh, okay, thank you.” Xu Zifan glanced at Zheng Chuan, feeling inexplicably that he seemed a little happy, because he knew that a dog badger with 300 characters could sell 800 characters? He had a hunch that the dog badger in the mountains would be miserable, and Zheng Chuan might become a dog badger killer. There are quite a lot of things, but it’s not easy to catch. If Zheng Chuan catches a lot, five are four taels of silver. Wouldn’t he be able to make a fortune soon? It’s more suitable to be brother-in-law.
Xu Zifan smiled at Zheng Chuan and said: “Zheng Chuan, your pheasants and hares are going to be sold in town? We will go together tomorrow, and I will also sell medicinal materials.”
“it is good.”
