Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 12035

The Luo family.

Yang Ruoqing casually ate a few chive dumplings with chive and vermicelli filling. Because she wasn't feeling well, she went back to her bedroom in the backyard and rested on the bed after finishing her meal.

After Luo Fengtang 'escorted' her back, he sat with her by the bed for a while, leaning against her fully clothed, while Yang Ruoqing nestled in his arms.

Luo Fengtang gently patted Yang Ruoqing's back as the two whispered to each other.

He would occasionally make Yang Ruoqing giggle, and she couldn't help but gently punch his chest with her fist, "Tang Yazi, you've become naughty too, saying such things."

Luo Fengtang lowered his head and stared into her eyes, their foreheads gently touching.

The dormitory fell silent, and time seemed to stand still at that moment.

Neither of them spoke, both immersed in the beautiful sensation of their foreheads touching. Yang Ruoqing referred to this action as 'recharging'.

The two people recharge each other, drawing energy and warmth from one another, so that both of them can be 'fully charged'.

Only when the sound of firecrackers gradually came from the distant land temple did the two slowly separate their foreheads.

"Shouldn't you also be preparing to go down to the local temple to burn incense?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

According to local custom, the first day of the Lunar New Year begins after midnight on New Year's Eve. After midnight, villagers take offerings and firecrackers and, after "opening the door," head straight to the local earth god temple in the fields south of the village to pay their respects and pray for good weather and a peaceful and healthy year for their families.

This custom is very popular in the Mianniu Mountain area. Almost every village has a local earth god temple nearby, but the earth god temple outside Changping Village is the largest.

According to the older villagers, the local earth god temples in the surrounding villages are all clones, while the one enshrined in the earth god temple in Changping Village is the true original earth god.

The local earth god is in charge of the destination of all living beings in this area after death. Whenever a living being dies on this land, their soul will be led to the earth god temple to report. Then the earth god will make a few strokes on a book similar to a household registration book in the mortal world, which means that your soul has been severed from the mortal world and your household registration has been transferred to the underworld.

Next, the local deity will contact the guide on that side, hand you over to them, and guide you smoothly into another space.

Without the intervention of the local earth god, you might have become a wandering, inhuman ghost, with no place to stand in the mortal world and no acceptance in the underworld—that would be pitiful!

Therefore, the people of this area have always been very respectful to the local earth god. They not only make offerings and kowtow during festivals, but also go to the earth god to kowtow and pray for divine intervention when they encounter some difficult problems...

Okay, I've digressed. It's the Lunar New Year, so let's not talk about death and life. Although birth, aging, sickness, and death are all part of life and no one can escape them, let's try not to mention these things that have nothing to do with the festive atmosphere on such a special holiday!
"No rush, wait for my uncle to call me, we agreed before." Luo Fengtang still held Yang Ruoqing tightly, reluctant to let go.

"As for the incense and other offerings... Ping An will prepare them, so I don't need to worry about it." He added that his biggest concern right now is his wife's health, fearing that she might experience stomach pains during her period.

“It should be soon,” Yang Ruoqing said, struggling to sit up from his arms. “It’s windy at night, so wear your cloak and change your shoes. I’ll go get them for you.”

"No need, I'll get it myself. You can just lie in bed."

"No, I am your wife, and I want to do these things for you."

"But your body..."

"Oh dear, I'm not as fragile as you think! I just have a little bloating in my stomach, it doesn't bother me anything else." Yang Ruoqing insisted on getting out of bed, and Luo Fengtang followed behind her. Yang Ruoqing brought him some brand-new, warm cotton shoes to change into, and then took his black fur-trimmed cloak from the clothes rack next to him, standing on tiptoe to drape it over his shoulders herself.

Believe it or not, some people are destined for greatness, and even in the field of modeling, they seem to be blessed by God.

They've been married for almost twenty years, and Yang Ruoqing can never get enough of looking at Luo Fengtang's face.

Yang Ruoqing was always a big glutton when it came to his well-built physique hidden under his robes!
"Wife, why is your face red? Do you have a fever?" Luo Fengtang asked with some concern, gently placing his large hand on Yang Ruoqing's forehead.

"No, why is your face so red?" Luo Fengtang touched Yang Ruoqing's forehead, then touched his own forehead to compare. Although he was relieved, he was still puzzled.

"It's nothing, it's just that the charcoal stove in the room is a bit too hot." Yang Ruoqing quickly made up an excuse for herself. She couldn't very well tell the truth, that she was having a craving and was starting to lust after him again, could she? Oh dear, how embarrassing!

"Open the windows a bit to let in some fresh air," Luo Fengtang instructed her.

"Yeah, I know. Hey, I think I heard Uncle calling you."

“I heard it too, I’m coming right now.”

"Okay, be careful when you get there." Yang Ruoqing reminded her again, because every year when there are many people setting off firecrackers, some silly people will accidentally blow their clothes or fingers. The worst time was when a guy was blown in the eye and went blind in one eye!
The joyous occasion of the Lunar New Year turned into a tragedy.

"Should we wear a mask?" Yang Ruoqing asked again before leaving, because the air quality there must be bad, with the smell of gunpowder and sulfur in the air.

Luo Fengtang thought for a moment, then shook his head. "No need for that. I'll find a place with good winds."

"That's fine, you should go now."

"Okay, I'll be right back. Qing'er, if you're sleepy, go to sleep first. You don't need to wait for me."

"it is good."

After seeing Luo Fengtang off, Yang Ruoqing went to the bathroom to clean herself up, changed into comfortable pajamas, and went back to bed.

When I reached under the blanket, I felt something warm. When I took it out, I found it was a hot water bottle that had just been changed.

Yang Ruoqing smiled, her eyes full of laughter. This guy must have secretly changed her hot water bottle while she was looking for his cloak. What a thoughtful man, I like him!

Luo Fengtang returned after nearly half an hour.

He tiptoed in, clearly afraid of waking Yang Ruoqing from her sleep.

Yang Ruoqing wasn't asleep, but she didn't make a sound either. She pretended to regulate her breathing to deceive him, since if she didn't deliberately regulate her breathing, he could tell from the rhythm of her breathing whether she was asleep or awake.

Hehe, does this gluttonous girl have 800 schemes in her mind?
There was no other way; Yang Ruoqing liked to play this game. She lay on her side in the quilt pretending to be asleep, but her ears were listening to his movements in the room.

This feeling of stealth excited her inexplicably, especially the thought of him getting into bed and lifting the covers, and her surprise, giving him a fright. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. If she hadn't been biting the blanket tightly, she probably would have burst out laughing on the spot.
