Druid's Country Retirement

Chapter 31
The next morning.

Fog enveloped the whole valley.

The sound of roosters crowing echoed in the clouds.

Shawa stretched comfortably and sat up, and suddenly saw Li Hongbing sitting at the end of the bed with a pair of dark circles and a haggard expression hugging the quilt.

"Grandfather!" Shawa shouted timidly like a child who has done something wrong.

"Wake up, I'm going to cook."

Li Hongbing let go of the quilt with dull eyes, and staggered out of bed.

If you are bombarded by thunder all night, everyone will be the same as yourself.

Up to now, the deafening snoring still echoed in Li Hongbing's ears.

After walking out of the room and breathing fresh air, I recovered a little.

Ow!Ow!
The little wolf dogs ran around and circled around, and as usual, Li Hongbing sent each little guy a ray of original power.

what!
Only then did I realize that the little wolf dog was much bigger.

Just bought back, they are only the size of piglets, and now they are almost as big as adult cats, showing the heroic appearance of wolves for the first time.

Eyes turned to the vegetable garden.

The vegetable seedlings planted the day before yesterday have grown palm-high, and the leaves are emerald green, as if carved from emeralds.

The effect of the power of origin is not generally powerful.

Bang!

There was movement in the kitchen.

Someone in the kitchen?
Sister-in-law Guifeng came to cook so early?
Li Hongbing walked into the kitchen curiously, and a graceful figure flew up in front of the chopping board.

The smell of mutton soup wafted from the big iron pot, causing the stomach to growl.

"morning!"

Shan Xing, who was chopping vegetables, was frightened by the sudden sound and turned around and raised the kitchen knife. Li Hongbing was also frightened by the kitchen knife and raised his hands.

The two confronted each other like this.

The next moment, they laughed at the same time, and Shan Xing rolled her eyes, "You son of a thief, you don't make a sound when you walk."

Blame me!
"Who told you not to hear it?"

Li Hongbing walked to the stove, scooped up a spoonful of mutton soup, and put it into his mouth.

"Wait, my mouth is hot, no chopped green onion." Shan Xing snatched the spoon, scooped the meat and soup into the sea bowl again, blew off the heat, sprinkled some wild garlic flowers, and the aroma came up after scratching.

"Eat it!"

Looking at the thick white broth in the bowl, green wild garlic flowers are floating.

Li Hongbing was stunned for a moment, only his mother and sisters had served him soup for so many years, unexpectedly there was another woman now.

Seeing that Li Hongbing didn't drink, Shan Xing thought it was the burnt left cheek leaking from her long hair, she quickly lowered her head to straighten her hair.

"Don't hide it, it's pretty."

Suddenly being said that, Shan Xing was stunned, a blush suddenly appeared on the right side of his face, he turned around and went back to the chopping board to continue working, half ashamed and half angry.

"How old is he, and he's still so dishonest."

Li Hongbing didn't refute, just picked up the bowl with a smile and walked out of the kitchen.

A good day starts with a bowl of mutton soup.

……

"Uncle Hong Soldier, are you up yet, we are here."

Da Kui's voice sounded outside the yard, and the four little guys lying on the rice field rushed out, whining and roaring in a low voice.

"Stop barking, it's my own."

Li Hongbing put down his bowls and chopsticks and walked to the gate of the courtyard, feeling relieved and helpless at the strong sense of territory of the little wolf dogs.

The good news is that they are definitely good at guarding the house, but the helplessness is that they don't recognize anyone except themselves. Shawa and Hongxing are better. Da Kui and the others have been here a few times, and they are like enemies when they meet.

Open the courtyard door.

The villagers were carrying shovels and hoes, and there were more people than yesterday. It is estimated that except for the people who ran the mountain, all the people who could work in Caogou Village came.

It costs 300 yuan per worker, and you can’t earn that much even if you go to the city to move bricks for a day. It’s a fool to let anyone not come.

Li Hongbing quickly took out his cigarettes and scattered them one by one.

"Fast forward, fast forward, the mutton soup in the pot is ready."

"Look, let me tell you! Uncle Hong Bing is open-minded. I came here on an empty stomach this morning."

Dakui turned his head and yelled at the villagers, while Guifeng's sister-in-law laughed and cursed and pinched her man.

The atmosphere was in place, and everyone lost their sense of belonging, and walked into the yard talking and laughing.

Dakui and Tie Zhu were at the back, and they spoke to Li Hongbing only after the others walked away.

"Uncle Hong Soldier, I went back yesterday and took a dose of medicine. My kidneys were on fire all night. I survived the whole night. It's amazing."

Tie Zhu hurriedly answered, "Me too. After drinking the medicine last night, I didn't have any noise in my head. I usually feel groggy in the morning. I woke up early today, and I feel really happy."

While speaking, Tie Zhu took out a kraft paper bag from his pocket.

"What are you doing? I won't take the money, just take it back." Li Hongbing lowered his face.

"No, no." Old Tie Zhu blushed, and carefully opened the paper bag, which contained a ginseng as long as a finger, "I rescued a medicine man in the old forest a few years ago, and he gave a ginseng. This ginseng is of no use to me, it is better to treat the illness and save the life of Uncle Red Soldier."

Li Hongbing took the ginseng and looked at the reed head. It was 30-year-old wild ginseng.

Yesterday I went to the town to get some medicine, and I chatted with the old man Guangming about ginseng, because wild apricot needs ginseng to heal the body, treat burns and broken legs, and the older the age, the better the effect.

The old man Guangming said that now the ginseng market is mixed with fish and dragons, wild ginseng has long since disappeared, and even if you have money, you can't buy it.

This put Li Hongbing in a difficult situation, so he could only entrust the old man Guangming to help him buy some ginseng seeds, to see if he could use the power of the original source to produce them.

Unexpectedly, when he fell asleep and hit the pillow, Tie Zhu sent a big gift early in the morning. Although this ginseng did not meet the requirements, it could barely be used.

Li Hongbing accepted the ginseng with a smile. As for the money, he saved his life, so it was not worth a ginseng.

The three returned to the yard.

The villagers have already picked up their bowls to eat and drink. The delicious mutton soup paired with steamed buns just out of the pan is not too delicious.

Shan Xing and her sisters-in-law were busy, with sweat dripping from her forehead, tired but happy.

I saw that everyone in the village who could speak was present.

Li Hongbing walked up the steps in front of the main room, clapped his palms a few times, and cleared his throat.

"Everyone, young and old, listen to what I have to say."

The villagers put down their chopsticks and looked at Uncle Hong Bing in bewilderment. They didn't know what he was going to say. Could it be a matter of work?
Others don't know, but Shan Xing knows it very well. He originally thought what Hongbing brother said was a joke last night, but he didn't expect him to dare to do it today.

A married man.

A crippled and disfigured woman.

How can I stay in the village in the future.

Shan Xing was very ashamed and angry, but she was also ashamed to speak, so she could only glared at Brother Hongbing with tears in her eyes, and if you dare to say it, I would throw myself into the well.

Li Hongbing pretended not to see, and handed over to more than 20 people in the yard.

"I'm not afraid of everyone's jokes. I'm divorced, and I'll be settled in the village from now on. Everyone, young and old, knows that Shan Xing and I are childhood sweethearts. She has suffered a lot and suffered a lot these years."

"But from now on, Shan Xing will be taken care of by me. Don't mention those things in the past. If anyone provokes Shan Xing in the future, he will not give Li Hongbing face, so don't blame me, Li Hongbing, for not giving you face."

Whoa!
There was an uproar in the rice field.

Everyone looked at Shan Xing who was at a loss, and then at Li Hongbing, their eyes moved back and forth between the two.

The amount of information is too much to distract people.

Who is Li Hongbing!
The only grandson of Mrs. Li, a city resident, a college student, and superb medical skills, even if divorced, he is still a wealthy and capable person.

Where's the mountain apricot?
An older rural woman in her 30s, with a disfigured face and a crippled leg, she has nothing she wants, and she is poor.

The two couldn't get together no matter what.

Having said that, even if they were together, it would be a mountain apricot climbing high branches. Who would want a disfigured and crippled woman who can't do work, plant land, and can't use it? It's just a display.

People in the city like it?
