The pastoral life of the grass tribe chief

Lu Yao cleared away nearly five acres of weeds in just one day, dried them, burned them on the spot as fertilizer, and then prepared the land to plant broad beans.

Lu Lide and Wang Xiurong, worried that Lu Yao would be exhausted, also took time to come and help.

"Did you have breakfast?"

Wang Xiurong felt sorry for her youngest son.

"I eat breakfast every day now, and I eat at least two bowls of rice with every meal. Look, I'm in the sun every day, but I haven't gotten tanned."

Lu Yao now has an astonishing appetite.

Seeing that her youngest son's complexion was indeed getting better and better, Wang Xiurong felt relieved.

Big White led a group of puppies to dig in the soil and catch mole crickets, which the locals called "earth monkeys".

When Lu Yao and his friends were young, they also liked to soak mud monkeys in water and catch them to play with.

"Big White, don't play here, take them somewhere else to play."

Lu Yao looked at the ridges he had prepared, now a mess made by a group of paparazzi, and felt a headache coming on.

Every time Big White comes to Wumutang, the seven puppies become Big White's followers, running amok in the vicinity, making it a no-go zone for birds and rats.

Fortunately, he rented the whole place; otherwise, he wouldn't have a peaceful life if he had ruined the villagers' vegetable gardens.

Despite this, some villagers still came to complain that the oat grass in their fields was bent over and out of place, making it difficult to cut and some of it even rotted in the mud.

"Woof woof woof woof..."

Upon hearing this, Da Bai ran over and barked at him, arguing with him.

It's just catching a few monkeys, why are you being so stingy? Can't you be as handsome and generous as me, Doggy?

"roll."

Lu Yao was not surprised at all by its reaction.

It was smarter than the other dogs in the village from a young age, and its family also consciously trained it.

Its intelligence is now about the same as a child's, and it is best at reading people's expressions.

He knows perfectly well who he can offend and who he cannot.

Lu Yao also gave it water infused with spiritual spring water every day, and its intelligence was already close to that of a child in their teens.

Seeing that Lu Yao didn't give it any face, it immediately changed its attitude, put its front paws on his arm, and wagged its tail to please him.

The gist of it is: don't talk about it like that in front of so many underlings, it makes it lose face, and things can be discussed.

"Get your filthy legs off me, don't get mud all over my face."

Lu Yao flung its forelimbs away.

"Woof woof."

Big White almost fell flat on his face, got up and barked at him, getting into a fighting stance.

Let's have a one-on-one fight.

"If I'm afraid of you, I'll take your surname."

Lu Yao kicked him.

Big White jumped away, cursing under his breath.

I'm going to catch some monkeys right here, what are you going to do about it? If you've got the guts, come and hit me, hit me!

"The madman has arrived."

Lu Yao was so angry he laughed.

The eccentric man liked to eat dog meat and often killed dogs; the dogs in the village would run away from him from afar.

Big White was startled and looked around, but couldn't see the madman. So it unleashed another burst of frenzied attacks.

If he's crazy, you'll be crazy too!

You just wait, I'll tell your parents you bullied me, and they'll spank you.

He turned and ran off to complain to Lu Lide and Wang Xiurong, cursing and swearing.

Keep a close eye on your youngest son. If he angers me, he'll be in big trouble. Don't blame me for not warning you.

"Okay, okay, I won't let him eat lunch."

Lu Lide was so entangled with it that he had no choice but to give up.

"You win. Take them and go play somewhere else."

Wang Xiurong praised it.

Upon hearing this, Da Bai's tail immediately swished in the air. It then smugly snorted at Lu Yao and ran away.

Seeing that it had run away, the paparazzi gave up on catching the monkey and chased after it.

Lu Yao patted the dirt off his sleeves and continued working.

A series of footsteps approached.

"Uncle Guang, let's go for a walk."

Lu Yao looked up and saw Lu Liguang walking slowly towards him with his hands behind his back.

"I just passed by your fishpond and saw the fish eating grass. You've only been back for a little over ten days, and the fish have grown quite a bit. It seems you haven't lost your fish-raising skills over the years."

Lu Liguang praised him.

"My parents don't have much time to feed them, so they grow quickly as long as they are well-fed."

Lu Yaodao.

"Next time your classmate comes fishing, save one for me too."

The classmate Lu Liguang was referring to was Li Yunbo.

Li Yunbo often came to visit Lu Yao and Lu Chong. He knew them, but couldn't remember their names.

"OK."

Lu Yaodao.

Lu Liguang chatted with the three of them for a while, then slowly walked away with his hands behind his back, humming a folk tune.

Around 11 o'clock, Lu Yao went back to cook rice and stir-fry dishes.

"Big White, go back to your doghouse and sleep."

Lu Yao saw Da Bai lying in the doghouse taking a nap, while the other puppies were sleeping outside, so he kicked it awake.

"Woof woof."

Da Bai grumbled and reluctantly went to the haystack to continue sleeping in.

In the afternoon, while the family was working, villagers came to complain again.

"My dog ​​Wangcai and I were taking a walk when Dabai, accompanied by a group of puppies, suddenly rushed out of the bushes and bit my dog ​​Wangcai."

"If there hadn't been a piece of firewood by the roadside that scared them away, my dog ​​Wangcai would have been bitten to death by them."

"This beast doesn't bite any of the other dogs in the village, but it always bites my dog, Wangcai, to death."

"Let me catch it and beat it to death with one blow!"

The villagers looked around, but unfortunately, Big White and the others hadn't returned yet. Otherwise, seeing how angry he was, they might have rushed up and bitten Big White.

"Don't be angry. It's not worth getting sick from getting angry. I'll definitely teach it a lesson later."

Lu Lide could only keep apologizing.

"Hmph, it's because when it was a puppy you old man used to have your dog bite it all the time, that's why it holds a grudge. You're lucky it didn't bite you."

Wang Xiurong muttered to herself.

Lu Yao didn't say anything, treating it as if a mad dog was barking wildly.

Some people never look for problems within themselves and never reason.

Unless it's a matter of principle, just ignore these kinds of people to avoid getting into trouble.

"Touch flowers and grass, but not love; touch hands and feet, but not hearts; if you're destined to be together but not to stay, love, no matter how much, is worthless..."

Just then, Lu Yao's phone rang with a video call.

You can tell who it is just by listening to this music.

"Could you change the music to something better?"

As soon as Lu Yao answered the video call, Lu Chong's roar exploded in his ears.

Aside from going to work, this guy is either on blind dates or on his way to one.

However, this guy is usually very talkative, but when he sees a woman, he can't utter a single word for a long time, and he is also impulsive and sensitive.

If the woman replies to his messages slowly, or if his sensitive pride is touched, he becomes restless, afraid that she will suddenly give him the "friend zone" treatment, and in a moment of impulse, he blocks her.

Every blind date, starting from exchanging contact information, ends in three days to ten days or half a month.

This guy is stubborn and won't listen to anyone's suggestions.

Lu Yao, Lu Yang, and the madman were afraid he would do something rash, so they specially set this ringtone for him, which always made him furious during the call.

"I think it sounds pretty good, and I don't plan to change it for now."

Lu Yao joked that this ringtone was actually quite suitable for comforting him right now.

He had always teased Lu Chong with this ringtone, never imagining that one day the boomerang would hit him.

Therefore, one should not be too immoral, otherwise one will suffer retribution.

"I'm doing machine repairs today, so I'm off my early shift. I'm buying mutton now, and I'm having braised mutton with Crazy at my house tonight."

Lu Chongdao.

"I need to finish tilling the land today, so it will be quite late."

Lu Yaodao.

"I'll call you when the mutton stew is ready."

Lu Chong hung up the phone as he spoke.

Men from southern Guangdong are known for being able to grace a formal occasion and also be adept in the kitchen.

The four Lu family scoundrels all possess excellent culinary skills.

Lu Yao is good at making soups and porridge, Lu Yang is good at stir-frying, Lu Chong is good at braising meat, and Dianzi is good at frying.

They rarely eat at restaurants; they buy ingredients and cook for themselves, which results in generous portions, delicious food, and good hygiene.

To be honest, with their discerning palates, they really wouldn't be interested in ordinary hotels and restaurants.

It's not just them; people in Guangdong are like this too. They can tell at a glance whether a dish is fresh or not, or whether it's pre-made, without even tasting it.

Therefore, in southern Guangdong, the business of hotels and restaurants is polarized: they are either booming or not doing at all; there is no such thing as a business that is neither booming nor stagnant.
