Chapter 369
After they had finished eating, Ye Xinyi tidied up the kitchen, but saw Mrs. He took two straw hats, handed one to her daughter Shuangya, and she fastened the other herself, as if she was about to go out .

Ye Xinyi asked, only to find out that Mrs. He was going to pick peppercorns in the field.Although they mainly rely on hunting for their livelihood, each family has a few acres of mountain land opened by their ancestors, where they can grow some vegetables, fruits and food. Every household in Sichuan and Sichuan cannot live without this pepper. Pepper peppers that just came from overseas are also very popular, as Shen Yue and the scholar had mentioned earlier.

The scholar grew up in Sichuan, and Shen Yue also stayed here for a long time, but he is quite used to the taste here.

Ye Xinyi had never seen what a pepper tree looked like, and had never picked pepper before, thinking that it would be okay to be around here, and told Shen Yue that he had a rest, so he wanted to go to the mountains with Mrs. He and his mother and daughter.

Ah Xiang hesitated for a moment, but unexpectedly wanted to follow.

Before walking into the mountains, I could already smell the pungent aroma. At first I felt a little uncomfortable, but after I sneezed twice, I felt that the seven orifices were much more open, and it was very comfortable.

The Zanthoxylum bungeanum has thorns, and although the fruits are also in clusters, they grow scattered, and it is not easy to pick them.Sister-in-law He is a neat person, and she is also good at work. Her daughters, Shuangya, also have the same temperament. They are young and agile.

Ye Xinyi is also nimble, and after a while, he got started, but he is really a good helper.

Ah Xiang was a little clumsy, she moved slowly, and was stabbed a few times, but she didn't say a word, just gritted her teeth and continued to pick.

Ye Xinyi became more and more convinced that Shen Yue was right. It can be seen that she was raised and raised pampered on weekdays, but the Yi nationality is different from the Han people. Although she came from a noble family, most of the noble women of the Yi nationality can ride and shoot, and they can also practice horse riding since childhood. Wu, but she obviously doesn't know how to do farm work.

It's just that he has a stubborn temper, refuses to admit defeat, and keeps pursing the corners of his lips. Although the expression on the bar with the pepper tree is a little stubborn, it also reveals a sensual beauty.

When the sun rose, the heat in the mountain was unbearable, so Mrs. He brought them back together.

It took the four of them almost two hours, but they only picked a sieve of peppercorns. A martial arts practitioner like Ye Xinyi felt backaches and felt more and more difficult for farmers and mountain people.

After a whole morning, Mrs. He became closer to them. A pot of tea had already been made in the kitchen, and each of them poured a large bowl for them.

It was all brewed from tea foam, and some salt was also added, which was similar to what I drank in the tea inn earlier. Ye Xinyi didn't mind, so Gululu drank it all.

Ah Xiang frowned slightly, but drank without saying a word.

Shen Yue was obedient, and had been recuperating in the house, only came out to chat with them when he heard the voice.

He was talking, but he heard a commotion.

The strong men from several families in this village all went up the mountain together in the early morning, and now they rushed all the way to Mrs. He's house, and they were beaming when they entered the door, "Sister-in-law, the family is very happy today, just look at Mrs. He's hunting!" what come back?"

Behind those people, they picked up a huge monster with thick wooden sticks, and when they got closer to have a look, ho!It really is a big guy.

A wild boar, by the looks of it, probably weighs more than 200 catties.

Such a big wild boar must be able to exchange a lot of money. If it is not this season, it is also possible to keep it for yourself to eat.No wonder she was overjoyed, when Aunt He saw it, her face lit up with joy.

Brother He also had a red face, and replied with a smile, "Thanks to Brother Asi for helping me, otherwise, if I met this thing today, I would not only be unable to hunt it, but also be injured by it." Assi shoulders.

Asina's temperament, he probably doesn't know what modesty is, right?

Ye Xinyi thought.

Sure enough, Asi patted his chest with a smile and said, "That's right, fortunately, I'm good at archery, otherwise this beast is really ferocious, and Brother He might be injured." Those people talked about how he and Brother He hunted this wild boar, how tortuous the process was, and how dangerous the situation was, thanks to his efforts to turn the tide.What he said was wonderful, and Ye Xinyi felt that Axi was actually quite suitable to be a storyteller.

Not to mention anything else, but he, a member of the Yi tribe, can speak official dialect, as well as Sichuan and Shu dialects so fluently, and he can also speak those people inseparably. Also considered a capable person.

The day was lively and lively. In the afternoon, Brother He cleaned up the wild boar with the help of the villagers and Asi. The next day, he and his son carried it to the outside of the mountain. Asi was also smiling. followed.

Shen Yue and Ye Xinyi didn't seem to care about it at all, and they were still recovering from their injuries with peace of mind, while the other picked peppers, cooked, and vegetables with Sister He and the others, and lived a farm life, and they were quite happy with themselves.

It's just that it was dark and Brother He, his father and son and Asi hadn't come back yet, Sister He was fine, and she was still preparing dinner with Ye Xinyi.

Ah Xiang, however, looked a little uneasy, frequently looking out from the chaimen.

When Aunt He saw her, she smiled and said, "That small county town is not close, and there is so much meat, maybe even one restaurant can't eat it, so go to a few more, and the head of my family has two money in his hand. If you are a drunkard, you will be greedy, and maybe you will lead Brother Asi to a restaurant to eat and drink. Don't worry, sister Axiang, the head of my family has walked this mountain road for a lifetime, and I can't get away with my eyes closed, let alone Asi Brother is so smart, nothing will happen, wait a little longer, and you will be back anyway."

Ah Xiang lowered her eyes and responded with a low voice. Although she left the chai gate, her eyes still glanced out from time to time.

Mrs. He smiled and let her go.

Mrs. He turned her head and gave Ye Xinyi a wink.

Ye Xinyi pursed her lips and smiled, looking at A Xiang, her almond eyes suddenly darkened.

Fortunately, Mrs. He's words were correct. When they finished their dinner, Brother He, father and son, and Asi came back smelling of alcohol. Of course, there was also a bulging purse. I went to talk with Assi, and I don't know if I will talk all night again.

Ah Xiang saw that Ah Xi came back safely, but she didn't say a word, she lowered her eyes and went back to the east wing where she lived with Shuang Ya.

Ye Xinyi has always been very curious. When he was lying on the bed at night, leaning against Shen Yue's arms, he couldn't help but say, "Tell me, what's the relationship between them? I saw that Asi took care of Ah Xiang, but he didn't care about her." Get close, Ah Xiang, obviously caring about Asi very much, but there seems to be some distance between them, at first I thought they eloped, but now it doesn't look like it." But between the two people, there is always something I can't explain the unclear atmosphere, in short, it is very awkward, but it is very subtle.

It is quite similar to the feeling between Xia Yanfeng and Leng Changru.
