Chapter 23 Saburo treats me really considerate
"Can you... accompany me for a walk in the village?"
Xiao Sanlang loosened his grip and felt an inexplicable loss in his heart.
What is he expecting?
"Now?" He frowned slightly.
Su Yue nodded.
Xiao Sanlang glanced at Brother Yu who was sleeping soundly, "I'll ask Sister-in-law Feng to come over and look at Brother Dian Yu. Please wait a moment."
Mrs. Feng likes Brother Yu very much. There is not much work at home at the moment, so he will come over soon.
Su Yue took out fabric and cotton and asked Feng to help them make cotton-padded clothes for winter. She was given ten yuan for a cotton-padded coat.
Feng waved her hand and said, "What kind of wages can I give you? There is not much work in the fields right now. I just have some free time, so I made it for you in two days."
She gave Feng the drawing she drew.
Feng's eyes lit up, "Did you draw this dress yourself? Oh, the style is so beautiful, but the size..."
She glanced at Su Yue's figure without words.
Although the size on the drawing is much wider than that of a normal person, it is still at least two sizes smaller than Su Yue's current figure.
Su Yue curled her lips slightly, "According to the dimensions on the drawing, I am losing weight, and I will definitely lose some weight in the winter."
As soon as Feng thought about it, she understood the meaning of losing weight, "Then I'll do as you say."
She asked casually, "Are you going to town?"
Xiao Sanlang glanced at Su Yue.
Su Yue smiled, "I ate too much at noon, so I walked around the village to eat."
Feng couldn't help but have a smile in her eyes, and whispered: "You two have such a good relationship."
In the past two days, Su Yue went to Xiao Changgui's house to bring meat and bones, but he didn't hear Su Yue beating or scolding Brother Yu.
Mrs. Feng's view of Su Yue changed a lot, and she couldn't help but whisper to Su Yue, "Sanlang is a considerate person. You can have a good time with him in the future."
Su Yue touched her nose, her almond-shaped eyes swept across Xiao Sanlang's jade-like handsome face, "Well, Sanlang is indeed considerate to me."
Xiao Sanlang coughed twice, turned around and went out feeling a little uncomfortable.
The two of them went out one after the other.
"Where are you going?" Xiao Sanlang looked ahead and asked in a low voice.
Su Yue saw that his earlobes were a little red and laughed secretly in her heart. This man was actually very thin-skinned.
"Well...just walk around the village."
Xiao Sanlang didn't ask any more questions and took the lead to walk to the east end of the village.
His right leg is lame, so he doesn't walk very fast.
Su Yue walked side by side with him leisurely while observing the situation in the village.
"There are probably more than 150 households in the village. There is not much land, and since it is close to a mountain, the people in the village will not be hungry all year round."
As if he knew what she wanted to know, Xiao Sanlang introduced the situation in the village as he walked.
In a blink of an eye, we arrived at the east end of the village.
Su Yue stood beside a pond.
The pond is not big, about three or four acres of land. The water inside is a bit turbid and covered with green duckweeds and oval lotus leaves.
It was already the end of October, the weather was cold, and the lotus leaves were a bit rotten. Many purple flowers bloomed in the middle of the lotus leaves, and many spherical berries grew in the middle.
"This pond was dug temporarily by the villagers to store water during the drought the year before last. In the past two years, there has been enough rain, so no one has used it."
Xiao Sanlang saw her looking at the pond in a daze and walked up to her to explain.
On the other side of the pond are tall thatch bushes, swaying in the autumn wind, and the air is full of moist water vapor.
"Behind the thatch is the Qingshui River, which flows right in front of our village." Xiao Sanlang pointed to the other bank and said.
Su Yue walked two steps along the pond, bent over and picked the purple-red berries.
She underestimated her weight.
Seeing that she had reached the berries, her center of gravity lost balance and she fell straight into the pond.
Xiao Sanlang grabbed her with his slender and powerful hands, but she staggered because she was unsteady on his feet, and both of them stepped into the mud on the shore.
Su Yue let out a long sigh, "It's okay."
Xiao Sanlang frowned and stared at the mud that was up to their ankles, "Is this okay?"
Su Yue curled her lips, "Fortunately, I didn't overwhelm you this time, otherwise not only would your legs be wet, but you would also be wet."
"Lost your virginity?"
Xiao Sanlang remembered the previous two times when he pulled Su Yue and was knocked down by Su Yue. When he heard Su Yue's words again, he suddenly thought too much.
Why is this woman... thinking of knocking him down at any time? Really...
"Su Yue!"
He stared at Su Yue as coldly as possible, but his earlobes involuntarily turned red again.
Su Yuexing's eyes widened, her expression innocent, "I'm right, I bumped you into this mud, wouldn't your whole body be wet? Wet and dirty?"
"Sanlang, where did you think you were? Could it be..."
"I didn't think about anything." Xiao Sanlang quickly interrupted her.
It turned out that he was talking about the wet body. He looked embarrassed and said, "Remember to explain everything when you talk in the future."
"Okay." Su Yue smiled secretly in her heart, "Can you help me pick the berries?"
She couldn't pick it off on her own, because her figure didn't allow it.
Xiao Sanlang looked at the distance between the berries and frowned slightly, "The distance is a bit far, please pull me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that he had been holding Su Yue's hand and hadn't let go.
He lowered his eyes and glanced at the hands held by the two of them.
This woman's hands are white and plump, soft and smooth...
"Sanlang?"
Xiao Sanlang came back to his senses and saw Su Yue looking at him in confusion.
He turned around awkwardly and tried his best to reach out and pick the berries Su Yue wanted.
"This is chicken head fruit. It's very astringent and can't be eaten."
Su Yue took the berry, brushed away the burrs on the outside, put it to the tip of her nose and smelled it, then curled her lips and smiled.
"This is also called gorgon fruit. Do you know what it can be used for?"
Xiao Sanlang raised his eyebrows in surprise, "It's actually a medicinal material. What disease does it treat?"
Su Yue nodded, glanced at Xiao Sanlang's waist pointedly, and then said slowly: "This one nourishes the kidneys and strengthens essence. It is specially used to treat kidney deficiency and slippery vaginal discharge..."
"Su Yue!"
Xiao Sanlang interrupted her shyly under her interested gaze, and couldn't help but straighten his waist.
Su Yue chuckled, "Don't be angry, I didn't say you had kidney deficiency."
Xiao Sanlang gritted his teeth, wondering why he suddenly had no power to fight back when facing this woman.
"gone."
Su Yue held the gorgon fruit and came ashore first, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised and in a happy mood, and even stretched out a hand to hand it to Xiao Sanlang.
"Come, let me pull you up."
"I'm also considerate of Saburo, right?"
Xiao Sanlang looked at the big white hand stretched out in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and put his hand up.
Su Yue pulled him up.
Both of them are a piece of mud.
"Don't move." Xiao Sanlang suddenly shouted.
Su Yue looked over puzzled.
Xiao Sanlang bent down to pick up a branch and quickly whipped it towards Su Yue's calf.
Su Yue gasped in pain and saw a black insect, as big as a finger, falling from the place where Xiao Sanlang had just slapped him.
"It's a leech."
This thing is mostly found in the mud and loves to suck human blood. Once it crawls onto the legs and sucks blood, it is often difficult to get it off.
It must have been that when she was standing in the mud just now, a leech crawled onto her leg.
Fortunately, Xiao Sanlang has quick eyesight and quick hands.
"Thank you."
Xiao Sanlang raised his foot to step on the leech.
Su Yue grabbed him and said, "No, I want this."
She took the wooden stick from Xiao Sanlang's hand and expertly hit the leech on the head, killing it with one blow but keeping the body intact.
