Chapter 87 Help
Indeed, Mu Xiu used the fine cornmeal in the space. Although it was made, the appearance was similar to that of a corn bun, but the taste was very different.
Chen Xuhui was inevitably very worried when he encountered difficulties. After he went back last night, he thought about it for the middle of the night. He felt that the life of Mu Xiu's family was not as miserable as the rumors were, but instead felt that life was enjoyable.
Chen Xuhui lost his mother since childhood and made a living under the face of his stepmother. Later, he was kicked out of the house. He had facial injuries and no family could protect him. Therefore, he was often bullied in the village, and no good thing was his turn.
Nowadays, everyone has no time to care about their own children, so how can they care about a child who doesn’t care about their parents? People’s kindness is too late to take care of themselves, especially when there is little pity.
Chen Xuhui was forced to death, and he was unwilling to starve to death, so he started to go up the mountain to find some food. After a while, he learned to hunt. These experiences also gave him a very keen intuition. Chen Xuhui started last night, and there was a faint voice in his heart, telling him to have a good relationship with Mu Xiu.
Chen Xuhui did not trust anyone. The torture he suffered since childhood made him feel that everyone was unreliable. He only believed in himself, so he decided to follow his feelings.
For Chen Xuhui, the two steamed buns were really not enough to be stuck between his teeth. He finished eating in a short while. Chen Xuhui clapped his hands, stood up, poured all the water in the bucket into one bucket, carried the shoulder pole, and said kindly: "You carry that bucket to water first, and I'll go and pick up some water."
Mu Xiu nodded. Such division of labor is also efficient in working.
When Chen Xuhui went to fetch water, Mu Xiu looked at Chen Xuhui's responsible field. The soil is similar to that of Sun Xingfu's family's responsible field. The land was well-turned, but it was definitely not fertilized when the seeds were planted, and the seeds were also made of poor seeds from this era...
Now that we have reached this point, if we want Chen Xuhui to have higher wheat yields, we can only fertilize them well. Mu Xiu looked around and found that there was no one. She quickly took out the fertilizer from the space, poured it into the water in the bucket, and then stirred it and began to spread it evenly in Chen Xuhui's field of responsibility.
Chen Xuhui quickly came back with a load of water. He only saw Mu Xiu in the field, bent down to scoop water, and gently poured it on the ground. After the small piece of land was watered, he lifted the bucket and took a few steps forward, and continued to water...
Mu Xiu's face showed a serious expression, and Chenhui fell on her body, reflecting a faint light radiant throughout her body. She was obviously thin and tender, but the feeling she revealed was as if she had experienced a lot, revealing a gentle and calm breath. This breath was exactly what Chen Xuhui had always longed for. In an instant, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
Fortunately, Chen Xuhui's land was only three points. Mu Xiu poured a bucket of water with added fertilizer first. After waiting for Chen Xuhui to pick up the water, water it again.
After Mu Xiu finished pouring, he looked up and saw Chen Xuhui standing foolishly on the ridge of the field, not even putting down the burden on his shoulders. The fifteen-year-old boy was only about 1.6 meters tall. When a gust of wind blew, the bucket swayed.
"Brother Chen, what's wrong with you?" Mu Xiu shouted.
"It's okay." Chen Xuhui came to his senses, put down the shoulder pole, picked up the bucket full of water, walked to Mu Xiu, put it down, and took away the empty bucket beside Mu Xiu.
In this way, one of them carried water and the other watered it. Soon the two of them watered all the responsible fields.
"Brother Chen, are you still living there?" Mu Xiu washed his hands and looked at Chen Xuhui. He remembered the embarrassing appearance of seeing Chen Xuhui for the first time when he had just passed by.
Chen Xuhui also instantly remembered Mu Xiu's terrified scream and fainted on the ground, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
When Mu Xiu saw him laughing, he immediately knew why he smiled. His face became hot. He was really useless at that time and was shocked to faint.
"The village has recycled all the unmanned houses. The village party secretary asked someone to help me build a wooden house on the field. I was alone, just have a place to shelter from the wind and rain to eat and sleep." Chen Xuhui said, pointing to a small wooden house not far away.
Although Mu Xiu was an orphan in her previous life, she was not as miserable as Chen Xuhui. She didn't even have a fixed residence. Mu Xiu's heart was actually very soft and kind, otherwise she wouldn't have served her mother-in-law for so many years. But even if Mu Xiu was kind, she would never be soft-hearted when she should be powerful. They all vary from person to person.
At this moment, Mu Xiu felt a little distressed to Chen Xuhui. He was only fifteen years old. In modern times, he was in junior high school and was spoiled by his parents as a little emperor. He gave whatever he wanted. However, the little boy in front of him tried his best to live.
Mu Xiu never thought that she was miserable in the eyes of others now.
"I put the bucket back and prepare to go up the mountain again today. I got a good harvest yesterday. I will try my luck today. Are you going?" December is coming soon, the weather is getting colder and the prey will become less and less. Chen Xuhui wants to store some food for winter.
Mu Xiu was thinking about the remaining mushrooms on the mountain. When he heard Chen Xuhui's words, he was right in his mind and immediately responded: "Okay, then I'll put the things home and see you at the foot of the mountain."
Chen Xuhui said ok. Mu Xiu carried the shoulder pole and ran towards home quickly with two empty buckets. Chen Xuhui touched her nose and looked at her cheerful steps, but there was an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Mu Xiu returned home, put down his things, picked up the basket, and greeted Zhou Shuilian who was packing mushrooms in the yard, "Mom, I'll go up the mountain and don't have to wait for me to come back for lunch."
Last night, Mu Xiu took out all the dried mushrooms that had been soaked and taught Zhou Shuilian and Mu Xiaocao how to wash the mushrooms, then cut them into small fingers and put them in the size of a cover. She received the fresh ones in the space and planned to find a reason to dry them into dried mushrooms...
"Xiu, the mountain is dangerous, no longer allowed to go." Zhou Shuilian hurriedly stopped him.
"Brother Chen went with me, don't worry." Mu Xiu explained.
"What's the point in the mountain? Chen Xuhui is just a half-aged child, so don't cause trouble." Mu Xiaocao also raised objections at this time.
"Mom, in a few days, I will have to pay the pickles, but the mushroom sauce has not been prepared yet. There are so many mushrooms left. Boss Sun has paid the deposit. If I can't pay it at the time, I will have to pay the penalty for liquidated damages, which is a double deposit." Mu Xiu deliberately scared Zhou Shuilian.
