After Shen Ziyan said this, Shuangxi felt warm in his heart. Shen Ziyan gave himself the greatest tolerance. Being lucky enough to meet such a man in this life is truly a blessing from God.
Shuangxi looked at the turtle meat on the ground and thought it would be better to put it away as soon as possible. If someone discovered it, would it be repayable?
Shuangxi does not want to be the public enemy of the villagers.
There were five old turtles on the ground. The largest one was as big as a wooden cutting board used at home, and the smallest one was much larger than Shen Ziyan's two hands put together.
Shuangxi was secretly happy, this is the benefit of time travel, right? Things that are difficult to eat in modern times, and things that are extremely expensive, are actually available everywhere here.
Moreover, it is a completely natural wild turtle that has not been fed any feed! The nourishing effect of this kind of turtle is much better than that of modern artificially raised turtles.
Pond building is a hard work. There are one large pond and two small ponds in the village. The small pond has just been built. Shen Ziyan went to build the pond again the next day.
Shuangxi only went there for half a day this time, and returned home in the afternoon with some small fish. She had to process the small fish as soon as possible, either pickling or drying them and storing them.
Even if this fish is tenacious, it will not survive more than two days if it leaves the pond.
Shuangxi was cleaning fish behind his yard, but unexpectedly, Dashan came.
Dashan's legs are not in good condition, but as time goes by, he can already use crutches to get to the ground. Just now he saw the double happiness of hard work from the backyard of his home, so he came in through the back door on crutches.
Before Shuangxi could say anything, Dashan did something that made Shuangxi not sure what to do.
There was already a thin layer of sweat on Shuangxi's forehead. Dashan looked a little distressed, took out the sweat towel he had washed, and bent down to wipe the sweat from Shuangxi's forehead.
Shuangxi stammered: "Da...Brother Dashan..." and then subconsciously hid back.
There was a trace of discomfort on Da Shan's rough but handsome face, and there were even two red clouds on his face: "Xi, Xi'er, I saw you were sweating, so I... wiped it for you...
, Don’t worry. I just washed the sweat towel.”
Shuangxi really couldn't bear to accuse this rough-and-tumble man, so he had to ignore the matter and asked with a smile: "Brother Dashan, are your legs feeling better?"
Dashan smiled and said: "Sister Xi'er, don't you see that I can already go to the ground? Don't worry. I will definitely be back to my original state in less than two months."
Shuangxi blinked his eyes and looked at the stalwart man in front of him. Because he was on crutches, his figure and his temperament didn't match. Shuangxi couldn't help but smile.
Dashan looked at Shuangxi's eyes that were curved into beautiful crescent moons. Although he knew in his heart that Xi'er didn't know why he was laughing at him, he was not annoyed. Instead, he and Shuangxi laughed together.
Dashan's smile is much more hearty, with a kind of macho pride, and his voice is also full of energy, which makes people feel more relaxed after listening to it.
Dashan walked to the side of the yard on crutches. He picked up a round stool placed there and carried it with his non-crutched arm to Shuangxi's side.
Dashan put down the wooden stool and sat down opposite Shuangxi.
Shuangxi looked at this stalwart man sitting down and felt a little confused, so he asked doubtfully: "Brother Dashan, what are you doing here today?"
Dashan shook his head and said with a hearty smile: "I stayed in the house for a long time and felt very bored. There was no one at home, so I came to see Sister Xi'er."
Shuangxi frowned, thinking to avoid suspicion, but when he looked up, Dashan's eyes were extremely clear, and there seemed to be nothing inappropriate about him in them.
I couldn't help but feel ashamed, and thought to myself: "Double happiness, double happiness! You are really a loser, and you are becoming more and more useless. Brother Dashan may have no other intentions. Don't be sentimental."
Dashan seemed to sense Shuangxi's entanglement, and added: "I heard that basking in the sun can help bone injuries heal faster, so I thought about going out to bask in the sun. By coincidence, I saw Xi'er, and Xi'er didn't mind spending time with me.
Let's chat... let's chat for a few words." At the end of the sentence, Dashan's tongue was a little tangled.
Although he doesn't talk much on weekdays, he doesn't say even two sentences that he can't understand! He feels a little annoyed, but there is nothing he can do about it. Every time he meets Xi'er, he always feels that his mind is not spinning.
A bit clumsy.
The so-called steel that has been tempered a hundred times turns into softness, but that's it. For such a resolute man to meet Shuangxi is just like that inexperienced little boy, which is enough to prove that Shuangxi has slowly captured Dashan's heart.
Dashan actually put his hands into Shuangxi's fish basin. Shuangxi quickly said: "Brother Dashan, what are you doing?"
Dashan grinned, gave Xi'er a big smile and said, "Xi'er, it's too hard for you to be like this. I'm also free, so I'll help you."
Shuangxi said hurriedly: "Brother Dashan, I can finish the work by myself. You are still injured, so just sit aside and bask in the sun."
Dashan's hearty laughter came: "Xi'er, it's my leg that's broken, not my hand, it's fine."
When Shuangxi was about to say something else, Dashan opened his mouth to block Shuangxi's words: "In the morning, brother Ziyan came to tell me that dinner will be at your house. I am a freeloader. If I don't make any effort, I'm afraid I will be eaten by you."
This girl is looking down upon her."
Dashan's words may sound a bit chauvinistic on the surface, but in his heart he may be making an excuse to help Xi'er with his work.
Seeing Dashan insisting on helping, Shuangxi had no other way, so he thought to himself that Brother Quanzi didn't catch any small fish, so when the time comes, he should send some of the pickled fish and dried fish he made to the Yun family.
If it were given for free, I'm afraid the two brothers wouldn't want it. By chance, Brother Dashan came to help, so let him help, so that he would have a reason to give things away in the future.
Although Shuangxi is very stingy towards the Shen family, that's because the Shen family doesn't treat Shuangxi well. If someone really likes Shuangxi, Shuangxi is very generous and will give up all the good things.
The Yun brothers are really trustworthy people, and Shuangxi sincerely does not want the Yun brothers to suffer anything.
The silver-white scales are stuck to the face and appear brighter due to the reflection of sunlight, so the person opposite can see it at a glance.
Dashan stopped cleaning the small fish and said to Shuangxi: "Don't move."
Shuangxi was stunned for a moment and did not move as a reflex.
Dashan put one of his hands in a basin filled with water and rinsed it, then stretched it out towards Shuangxi's face.
The moment that ice-cold hand with water droplets touched Shuangxi's skin, Shuangxi was really startled.
Shuangxi's first reaction was to quickly hide back. After she dodged Dashan's hand, she saw Dashan's hand hanging in mid-air, which seemed a little awkward. There was a large fish scale between his thumb and index finger.
These fish scales are obviously not something that small fish can have. They must have been accidentally mixed into the fish basin.
Dashan put down his hand in a somewhat disappointed manner and silently cleaned up the fish. He felt as if a five-flavor bottle had been knocked over, which was very unpleasant.
Shuangxi noticed the strange atmosphere between the two people, so he said: "Brother Dashan, I'm going to clean up the old turtle in the kitchen..." After saying that, he ran away as if running away.
Dashan felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't know that there was another person who also felt uncomfortable in his heart, and it was Shen Bingxian.
He had just been sitting against the wall. The Shen family's house also had a window at the back. Naturally, his ears could hear every word of the conversation behind the yard.
For a moment, he even envied this Dashan who was not Xi'er's husband in name. Although he could not express his love for Xi'er openly, he could protect her from a distance or a distance.
But it was Neng Xi'er who stood on the blue sky and black earth together, and he was a caged person who could only be kept in a house...I was afraid he wouldn't live long.
Thinking of this, a trace of sadness arose in Shen Bingxian's heart. Destiny! Destiny! If there is really destiny, he would like to ask why his fate is like this... We met but couldn't stay together.
How unfair is this to yourself?
Speaking of Shuangxi, after seeing the turtle, she didn't know how to start. She was really frightened when she was asked to kill the turtle.
At this time, there is only Shen Bingxian at home, and there is a mountain outside. As for Shen Bingxian, he definitely cannot come to kill turtles. Not to mention that his temperament is not suitable for such a thing, but his body is afraid.
It is also not allowed.
Shuangxi had no choice but to call to the door: "Brother Dashan, can you come and help me?"
When Xi'er came to him for something, Dashan naturally wouldn't refuse at all and said quickly: "Okay, I'll come right away."
After saying that, he washed his hands in the basin of fresh water, picked up the crutch next to him, and came to the Shen family's kitchen.
Dashan is a bit tall, so he had to lower his head slightly when entering the narrow door.
Dashan saw the old turtle on the cutting board and Shuangxi who was holding a kitchen knife and didn't know what to do. He understood and said to Shuangxi: "Xi'er, you go outside to handle the fish. I'll do it here."
Xi'er is a little girl after all, so it's better not to let her see such a bloody scene, for fear that she will have nightmares.
Shuangxi felt grateful to Dashan for his thoughtfulness and said softly: "Brother Dashan, thank you." As he walked outside, he did not forget to add: "If you can keep the old turtle's blood, let it be."
Dashan said with a smile: "Xi'er, you can rest assured."
When Shuangxi walked into the stove again, the old turtle had been processed, the outer shell had been pried open, the turtle meat had been cut into several large pieces, and a small amount of turtle blood was placed next to it.

ps: Thanks to Hot Love and Xun Yue for the reward. It has been such an eventful summer. The literary overhaul has begun again. This time it is quite intensive. Qiong is revising the essay again. I am afraid it will be a little fresher in the future.. (I have revised it several times.
(Crying) If she is still blocked, Qiong can only draw circles in the corner. She has such a glass heart, she really can’t afford to be hurt...
