Chapter 66: Be pampered
Fu Jingyou stood in the stream and washed the mud from his feet.
Lu Miao stood on the small wooden bridge with her mouth bulging and her slim figure, her eyes swaying along with his figure, feeling a little bit regretful.
Every time she goes out with Fu Jingyou, she acts like she is on an outing. It was originally a joke she made to herself, but now that she looks at it, it seems to have come true.
"Are you going to cut the rice? Which field is ours? What can I do?"
"Just these two pieces of land."
Fu Jingyou pointed at two paddy fields, one above the other and next to each other, about an acre of land.
"You don't have to do anything. Your job is to herd the cow. Just find a shady place and watch the cow. Don't let it run into other people's fields and trample crops."
Lu Miao Xiao The chicken pecked at the rice and nodded, saying "oh" softly.
Fu Jingyou took a handful of water to wash his arms and face, then picked up the sickle and walked to the rice field to officially start working.
Lu Miao followed his back with her eyes, stood on tiptoes for a while, and then took a final look around. He chose a lotus leaf, folded it flat, spread it on the small wooden bridge, and sat on the ground.
In addition to the reeds along the water, the only thing that can provide shade is the black spring tree on the side of the field ridge.
What a coincidence, the black-skinned spring tree is at one end of the small wooden bridge, and the shade leaning out under the sunlight just covers the small wooden bridge.
Lu Miao sat in the shade and tested it with her legs hanging in the air. If her legs were relaxed and drooped, her feet would inevitably be immersed in the stream. She simply turned over and took off her cloth shoes and socks, placing them neatly. At your side.
Then he rolled up his trouser legs and generously dipped his white feet into the water.
At this moment, the temperature in the air had warmed up, but the water temperature was still cold. Lu Miao was so cold that she shrunk her neck from the ice of the stream. After she recovered, she calmly dipped her feet into the water.
The sweet lotus seeds were stuffed into her mouth. She chewed them with her cheeks twitching slightly, her calves kicking the water unconsciously and happily. The green lotus seed skin was thrown under the bridge and was swept far away by the flexible stream. Far.
Fu Jingyou occasionally looked up while working. Lu Miao was very happy and carefree, and he felt a bit of joy in his heart. His rhombus-shaped lips couldn't help but curl slightly.
He chuckled softly, wiped his sweat and bent down to continue working.
Lu Miao leisurely ate lotus seeds and played with the water until she threw the last handful of lotus seed skins into the water. She stretched her waist, glanced in the direction of the lotus field with unfulfilled interest, and turned back to ask Fu Jingyou:
"Fu Jingyou, can I go there to pick lotus pods?"
Although it was a question, by the time she finished speaking, she had already staggered to the edge of the lotus field with her bare feet, bowed and rolled up her trouser legs higher. , ready to go into the water.
Every time in late winter, the lake is drained and lotus roots are dug. The water in this area looks shallow, but in fact there are many hidden pits hidden in the water. If you are not familiar with it, you will definitely fall into it.
It was too late, but it was so fast that Lu Miao was about to be unable to be stopped. Fu Jingyou suddenly said in a devilish tone:
"Go ahead, there are a lot of water snakes in there, and they will come out in a while. Three or five, I’ll bite you one by one.”
"..."
Lu Miao's leg that was about to step into the mud instantly retracted it.
She stared at Fu Jingyou and asked dubiously:
"Then how dare you go in? Aren't you afraid of being bitten?"
Fu Jingyou stabilized his forward-leaning hat, " I’m not afraid of snakes. Besides, snakes like to bite white and tender things like you. It only hurts my teeth.”
"Nonsense...!"
Lu Miao was speechless for a while. This was the first time she heard such a statement. But regardless of whether Fu Jingyou was coaxing her to play, when she turned her head and saw the shadow of lotus leaves shaking on the water in the lotus field, for some reason, she suddenly remembered the documentary she had watched about the giant crocodile in the Amazon.
Those crocodiles will hide in the shadowy, murky water, waiting for an unexpected blow from people or prey.
Although there are no crocodiles here, but when I heard that there were snakes, and then looked at the flickering water, the fear in my heart made Lu Miao have to sit back on the small wood even if she was not happy. In the shade of the trees on the bridge.
"Fu Jingyou, I'm so thirsty!"
Lu Miao was a little unhappy, but it was more because Fu Jingyou saw that she was scared back by a snake, and her cheeks bulged.
She spoke in a coquettish manner, quite trying to stir up trouble to regain the situation, but in reality she was just arrogant because of her familiarity.
Fu Jingyou didn't have a temper with her. "I didn't bring any water when I came out in the morning. Do you want to eat some sour apricots in the basket on the ground? They can still quench your thirst."
"..."
Lu Miao was either really thirsty, or she felt that she had lost face just now. Her arrogant personality made her think of harmful tricks, deliberately making things difficult and making trouble for others.
When Fu Jingyou talked about sour apricots, no matter whether she was thirsty or not, whether she liked to eat them or not, she walked down the slope and put the donkey away when it was good. She slowly went to the field ridge to find a bamboo basket and dug out two Qingxing returned to the shade.
"Be patient, and after cutting this piece off, you can go back to eat first."
Fu Jingyou comforted and persuaded on one side, his attitude and tone were like coaxing a child, but Lu Miao was very Thanks, "I know!"
After a whole morning of dilly-dallying, it was finally time to get off work at noon. At that time, Lu Miao had already finished fucking two green apricots while enduring the soreness while watching the cows.
The lotus flowers that Fu Jingyou picked for her were directly tied into an alternative pink and white flower ball based on the Thai dramas she had watched and her own imagination.
It was a craft that Fu Jingyou had never seen before. At first, I thought it looked very pretty, but I became a little more interested as I looked at it.
On the way back, Lu Miao was walking in front, and he was leading the cow behind with a sickle under his elbow. Along the road were tall and short foxtail grasses of different sizes.
He picked it up casually, and his long but rough hands seemed to have been decorated with magic. Several pieces of dogtail grass were bent around in his hands, and soon they turned into the shape of a rabbit. .
He said "Hey", and when Lu Miao turned around, he handed over the tied little rabbit, and when Lu Miao exclaimed, he once again pulled out large and small rabbits from the roadside. There are several pieces of dogtail grass, this time it is not a little rabbit, but a little fox that always has several tails.
"You are so amazing!"
Fu Jingyou is not only dexterous, but what is even more powerful is his imagination!
Lu Miao was pleasantly surprised, "How did you do it? Will you make up something else? Well... Fu Jingyou, I want more! Make up something else for me!"
Pulling Fu Jingyou's sleeve and dangling it, he used soft and hard tactics. Lu Miao looked so cute and pretty, making it hard to refuse.
Ever since, when she arrived at Fu's house, she had gathered rabbits, foxes and small dragonflies in her hands.
Lu Miao herself also followed the pattern of making love stitches. It was the first time she knitted such knickknacks. Her craftsmanship was not as good as Fu Jingyou's, so there were many crooked knitting marks. However, she was a bit clever and her craftsmanship was not enough, so she made it up with embellishments!
Pinning small wild flowers picked from the roadside, the wild flowers the size of a small fingernail perfectly cover all the imperfections.
Lu Miao was very satisfied, and handed it to her side with a smile. She originally wanted to get a compliment from Fu Jingyou, but unexpectedly, the latter misunderstood that it was for him, and he took it directly.
