Rebirth Night Expedition Far River

Chapter 22

"Brother Xie, do you think that I am unfilial and immoral for treating my own grandma like this?" Wen Jiang asked Xie Zheng with his face raised.

Xie Zheng shook his head: "Life is alive, but please have a clear conscience."

"That's right." Wen Jiang smiled: "I just need to act according to my conscience." Scratching the back of his head: "I was so interrupted just now, I almost forgot, we haven't had lunch yet, let's go, let's go, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy it when it's too late."

Xie Zheng looked at the young man with picturesque eyes, and followed him with a smile.

When Yu Jianye came back in the afternoon, Wen Jiang nodded when he talked about building a house tomorrow. In addition to thinking about the house these days, he came up with a new food—preserved eggs.

In fact, this is the way to get rich he thought at the beginning, relying on food to make a fortune.But at that time, I was short of money, so I took a shortcut to make tea. Now that I have extra money in my hand, I can develop delicious food.

He had previously asked Yu Huaisheng about quicklime, and the other party had indeed read a lot of poetry and books. When he heard his description, he immediately thought of what it was called, and immediately said: "Isn't that something used for building houses in the north? Xiaoqi, what do you want that for?" ? Are you building a house?"

At that time, he wasn't sure if what Yu Huaisheng said was the same thing as what he was thinking, so he didn't say it. Later, Yu Huaisheng asked someone to bring him over from the north to look at it before confirming it, so he came up with this idea.

When Yu Jianye and Yu Tong got up early to start building a house, Wen Jiang took out a big basin and sat in a daze in the room, with a dozen duck eggs in a bamboo basket next to him.

Xie Zheng also went to help build the house, but Yu Jianye always used various excuses to let him come back to rest. He was worried about his physical condition, mainly because Xie Zheng didn't feel like He was doing rough work, and because he was injured before, although Dr. Zou also said that his injury has healed, he added a sentence at the end that he still needs to take care of it, so Yu Jianye only wrote down this last sentence, see Xie Zheng Rolling up his sleeves to carry bricks and logs, he couldn't bear it after walking a few rounds, so he called him back to help bring water.

When Xie Zheng came back, he saw Wen Jiang sitting on the small bench in a daze, so he couldn't help but look at it for a while, and then he approached him and leaned slightly: "What are you doing?"

Wen Jiang was still holding two duck eggs in his hand, when he heard someone talking to him suddenly, he stared blankly at Xie Zheng for a while before recovering: "Brother Xie?"

"Well, what are you doing, did you think of any new food?" During the time when Yu's family lived, what impressed him the most was the endless variety of food that Wen's Xiaoqi had. He traveled all over the years in this small village But I saw that I ate a lot of new things, I am afraid that they have never been seen outside.

"Hehe, I came back from picking up a few duck eggs and thought of a new method. Brother Xie, would you like to try it for me then?"

"Then I'm lucky." Xie Zheng said with a smile.

Wen Jiang said embarrassingly: "It hasn't been made yet. If it doesn't taste good, Brother Xie will make fun of me."

"How come, what you make, I believe it must be delicious."

"Wow, I didn't expect Brother Xie to be so optimistic. I feel so stressed now." Wen Jiang sighed pretending to be worried.

Xie Zheng couldn't help rubbing the top of his head: "You can do it, I believe you."

Wen Jiang's face turned red, and he just rubbed the duck egg skin in his hand.Xie Zheng looked at him with his head bowed and blushing, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

In the middle of building the house, Second Uncle Wen came over, licking his face, pretending to ask if he needed help, but Yu Jianye directly refused, Uncle Cong also came, without saying anything, lol He rolled up his sleeves and came up to work, and went back directly after finishing the work without leaving food. Later, Mrs. Chen also came, insisting that he would help with the cooking, and went straight to Yu's old house, but was stopped by Wen Jiang with a smile After coming down, Yin Yang said something strangely, and then he didn't come again, but Uncle Cong came to help with work as usual the next day, this time Wen Jiang didn't let him go, and stayed for dinner together, the two of them didn't say anything else , One just concentrates on working and eating, and the other just delivers water and leaves food.

Wen Jiang didn't hold any grudges against Uncle Cong's family, but he couldn't say he liked him either. After all, the original owner's death had something to do with his son, but the other party ran away after doing something bad and never came back. This crime was attributed to the rest of the Cong family, so they did not act for the time being.

It's probably how we get along with Uncle Cong's family.

On the day when the house was built, Wen Jiang invited some helpers from the village to have dinner, and of course he was the chef, so everyone ate their mouths full of oil, and there were constant praises, but the elders of the Wen family looked at Wen Jiang differently To be friendly, Wen Jiang is naturally willing, after all, they still want to live in this village.

The house was built in the style of a courtyard in the north. In modern times, Wenjiang once heard that the courtyard in the imperial capital had sold for nine figures, and it was not always possible to buy it. At that time, I always thought that if I had such a piece of land, I must repair it. I live in a small courtyard, with flowers in the front yard and vegetables in the back yard.

As for the kind of courtyard that enters and exits frequently, he lives in the country, so it’s better not to be too eye-catching. Build a small courtyard, square and square, just as he wanted. Yu Jianye and Yu Tong also met his sketches. I like it very much.

The house is made of nanmu, which is unique to Niuwang Mountain. When Wen Jiang first saw it, he was overjoyed. This is a rare thing that later generations want to see. Now that he is using it to build a house, he would wake up from his dreams with laughter.Immediately with a big finger, use it.

In the middle is the main hall, a main room, two wing rooms, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a warehouse.There are stone tables and stone benches in the courtyard, and Nanzhu and several Xifu Begonias are planted on the edge of the courtyard wall.

The backyard is a small vegetable field surrounded by a bamboo fence. Wen Jiang planted some vegetables found in the mountains, such as eggplants and green beans. When he came back, both Yu Jianye and Xie Zheng asked him what it was. He, who was born in the Land of Abundance, must have become the first one to eat eggplant in this era.

After the courtyard house was built, many people in the village who had good friends with Yu Jianye came to visit, and they were all full of praise. They said that although it was not as big as the rich family in the county, it had its own characteristics. Compared with the deep house compound, It looks more homely.

Xie Zheng also liked this small courtyard very much. When the weather was fine, Wen Jiang would take him to sit in the courtyard drinking tea and gossiping, and Wen Jiang felt more and more unusual from the conversation with Xie Zheng.

This feeling became more certain when he got up early one morning and saw the other party boxing in the courtyard.

Wen Jiang doesn't understand boxing, but he also thinks that Xie Zheng's boxing is very good-looking. Don't look at his handsome appearance, and the wind between his fists and palms is full of vigor. Wen Jiang is standing in the distance wearing a coat , I could feel a murderous aura, and trembled.

Xie Zhengzheng punched, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw a young man standing under a clump of green bamboo.

"get up?"

Wen Jiang's eyes lit up: "Brother Xie, you know martial arts, so don't you also know how to fly on the grass and float on the water? There are other things like tapping acupuncture points from the air, and hitting the sword with your bare hands?"

Xie Zheng heard him talk more and more vigorously, he couldn't help laughing: "Where did you hear all this?"

"It's from the story book." Wen Jiang replied seriously, his eyes sparkling, and he wanted to stick it to Xie Zheng: "Brother Xie, do you think I have time to learn Kung Fu now? I don't want to learn those advanced ones, eh, As long as it can fly around, how about it, okay?"

Xie Zheng couldn't stop laughing: "Learning Kung Fu is not as easy as you think. Most people start practicing from an early age. You have passed the best period now, but it is still possible to keep fit." Seeing his disappointed face, he couldn't help but Comfortingly said: "Furthermore, you said that it takes at least ten years to learn the state of flying on the grass and floating on the water. Ordinary people just move more briskly."

Wen Jiang sighed: "Oh, it would be great if I could meet you sooner, then maybe I still have a chance."

"Learning Kung Fu is very hard, and Brother Xie thinks that you are already very good now." Xie Zheng looked at him, smiled lightly and said: "Simple and plain, but it is the life that many people with unique skills want. "

Wen Jiang blinked: "Brother Xie said, is it you?"

As Xie Zheng's body recovered more and more intact, Wen Jiang also felt that the other party's time here might not be too long, but after all, there was a little more reluctance in his heart.

Xie Zheng was startled and said: "Yes, this is indeed the life I want."

"Then why don't you stay, stay with us." Even though he knew it was impossible, Wen Jiang still couldn't help but try to persuade him to stay by pretending to be tender.

But sure enough——"Brother Xie appreciates your kindness, but I still have a lot to do, I'm afraid—" His words stopped abruptly, his eyes swept away sharply, and he said to Wen Jiang: "Xiaoqi, wait Don't move here, Brother Xie will come back as soon as he leaves." With a leap, he was already out of the courtyard wall.

Wen Jiang was dumbfounded, didn't he just say he was leaving and then he really left?
