farm daughter-in-law

Chapter 204

"Woke you up?" He Sheng asked in a hoarse voice, and then he put his arms around Zhang Xihua, and rubbed his head against her neck affectionately.

Zhang Xihua shook her head, she had just woken up, her mind was not clear yet, and she seemed a bit confused.

The weather is getting hotter, the thick mattress on the bed has been replaced by Zhang Xihua two days ago, now lying on the bed will not feel stuffy, the two of them are only wearing thin underwear at this time, the husband and wife stick together tightly Tight, with every breath, there was a slight tremor.

He Sheng couldn't help moving, Zhang Xihua's head gradually recovered, and she slowly opened her eyes.

Quietly blushing, she still couldn't help but open her arms and clung to her husband's body, and asked softly, "He Lang, what time is it now?"

He Sheng leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, and replied in a low voice, "We just fell asleep not long ago, it's still early, if you're sleepy, just go to sleep."

He Sheng tried his best to appear the same on the surface, but when he finished speaking, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.He didn't intend to wake up his wife, but no matter how careful he was, he still woke her up.

Zhang Xihua opened her mouth several times to speak, but finally closed her mouth again, and only pinched her husband's waist with her hands.

After obsessing for a long time, the two stopped.

The intense atmosphere slowly subsided, and the room was quiet for a while. Before falling asleep, He Sheng said, "Tomorrow morning, I will accompany you to dig herbs, and I will also go to the charcoal cellar to have a look."

The plan for a year lies in spring, so the crops are hurriedly planted in the fields, and the crops are growing well. After the big rock in his heart falls, and seeing that summer is coming, He Sheng can't help thinking about the sideline business of burning charcoal.

The charcoal cellar of the He family had been closed for a year in the old year.

Now that there is no civil strife in the imperial court, and everyone is cultivating their health and rest, it is estimated that there will be a team of merchants coming to Daliang Town soon, so it seems urgent to burn out the charcoal as soon as possible.

"Well—" Leaning in her husband's arms, Zhang Xihua was lazy and unwilling to move. After a soft reply, she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

He Sheng didn't fall asleep right away, he got up and hugged Brother Yu who was sleeping on the small bed to the big bed. Brother Yu was very lively, and he didn't sleep honestly at night. One time, Brother Yu fell off the bed alone in the middle of the night Since then, the couple never dared to let him sleep alone.

After He Sheng covered Zhang Xihua's mother and son with a quilt, he lay down beside his wife and slowly fell asleep.

The next day, before the cock crowed, He Sheng called Zhang Xihua up, and the two of them simply cleaned up, and Zhang Xihua also quickly brought out the simple morning food. Just after eating, He Dashuan and He Zengshi also got up, and confessed to each other. After that, the couple rushed to the mountain.

Before going out, Zhang Xihua went to the room to take a look at Brother Yu, seeing that Brother Yu was sleeping soundly, and her mother-in-law was looking after her at home, Zhang Xihua was very relieved.

It has rained for the past two days, and the fog in the mountains in the morning is very thick. Standing on the mountainside, looking from a distance, the heavy mountains are like a dream, and it is like entering a fairyland.

He Sheng walked ahead, and it happened that the road was quite steep at this time, he immediately stretched out his hand and held Zhang Xihua tightly, and the two passed the hurdle smoothly.

Zhang Xihua's back basket was filled with light objects, and heavy things were placed in He Sheng's back basket.

After passing the steep slope, He Sheng still held his wife's hand and did not let go. When Zhang Xihua was looking for herbs, she would secretly look at her husband's back for a moment. Although her husband usually didn't talk much, he occasionally heard her A few other women gossiped that he was old-fashioned and boring, but Zhang Xihua felt that being able to marry He Sheng and have the current life was full, and only the word 'satisfied' could express her feelings.

Thinking about it again, He Sheng, who is rigid and boring in the eyes of others, can only be enjoyed by himself as a wife.As long as she thought of this, the corners of Zhang Xihua's mouth could not help but rise, so she quietly squeezed the hands they held tightly.

"What's wrong?" He Sheng turned around and asked.

Zhang Xihua pursed her lips and said with a smile: "You are sweating a lot." As she spoke, she handed over her handkerchief.

It took a lot of effort to climb the hill, and after walking for such a long time, the two of them had to sweat a little.

He Sheng pointed to Zhang Xihua's forehead, motioning for her to wipe it off by herself, and he took the handkerchief after his wife finished wiping.

The purpose of this trip was to dig herbs, and the two of them were not in a hurry, they stopped and stopped along the way, looking for places where medicinal herbs might grow, and when they arrived at He's charcoal cellar , The two people's back baskets are already filled with more than half of the herbs.

I haven't been here for a while, and a lot of weeds have grown beside the hut.After a short rest, He Sheng began to clean up the weeds around him.

Zhang Xihua went to the mountains to dig herbs, and there was no specificity. Basically, as long as they were herbs, she would pick some herbs that were needed in daily life.

With good luck this time, and with He Sheng's help, the needed quantity has already been harvested, and she doesn't plan to go deeper into the mountains, so she stays to help her husband.

After a cold winter and a rainy and foggy spring, although the charcoal cellar is well built, it should be checked before use to see if there is any need for repair.

There was no major problem at all, and He Sheng and his wife were relieved.

He Sheng looked up at the high sun, pointed to a nearby mountain, turned to Zhang Xihua and said, "Xihua, I'll go there, there are a lot of snakes and insects in the woods, you stay here, don't run out gone."

In his free time, He Sheng set up a few simple traps for catching small animals nearby, and happened to come over, so he wanted to see if there were any catches.

Zhang Xihua nodded, and said: "It's almost noon, I'll make a fire and cook later, come back early."

"Snakes and insects are not hibernating now, so watch your feet carefully." She was worried, so she added another sentence, although the two of them had said these words more than once or twice when they entered the mountain.
