Rebirth of Bayi Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest

Boss Liang, Tao Daqiang and the others left before dark.

The yard suddenly became quiet.

Li Long also felt very tired. After a day of hard work, even though he was much stronger than an average person, he still felt a little overwhelmed.

Gu Xiaoxia lay on the bed in an unpresentable manner, with lifeless eyes.

Although the previous bridal chamber pranks, including Zhu Bajie carrying his wife on his back, were mainly organized by Li Long, and she mainly played a supporting role, she was worried about being played a prank and was extremely nervous, so now that those people had left, she felt exhausted.

There are still some odd jobs in the yard, and some things in the kitchen that need to be dealt with. If I want to have breakfast tomorrow morning, I have to make it myself. There is firewood in the yard, but not much...

Li Long thought about these things in his mind, and then quickly withdrew his thoughts. Today was his wedding day, and the most important thing had not been done yet!
He turned his head to look at Gu Xiaoxia lying on the bed, and was surprised to find that she had fallen asleep!
It’s on!
Now!
Li Long was a little bit unconvinced, wondering if this little girl was shy so she pretended to close her eyes. He lowered his head and moved closer to Gu Xiaoxia's face, and then he heard Gu Xiaoxia's steady breathing.

His breathing was long and thin, which meant he was really asleep.

Li Long whispered:

"Xiaoxia?"

Gu Xiaoxia did not respond.

It seems that he is really exhausted.

Li Long smiled bitterly. His wedding night wouldn't just pass by like this, right?
He was a little sleepy just now, but now he is not sleepy anymore.

Li Long quietly stood up, took off his suit and put it on the chair - it seemed that he was not prepared enough, there was no hanger, and he would have to make one later.

Li Long untied his tie and threw it on his suit. He felt the temperature in the room was okay, so he didn't cover Gu Xiaoxia with anything and went to the kitchen.

There were still a lot of leftovers from the banquet in the kitchen. In addition to the food for a banquet to entertain the host tomorrow, there were still a lot left.

Li Long took a look, found a handful of noodles, some washed kelp and day lily, and planned to make a bowl of noodles.

Although I ate something in the afternoon, I feel hungry again now. Although I am still a little tired, getting something to eat doesn't count as work, but it can make me feel more relaxed.

After the house in the big yard was built and everything was ready, it was the first time for him to cook in his own home. It felt good, fresh and relaxing.

The fire on the stove outside was still going out and the temperature was quite high. Li Long placed a small pot on the stove. There was clean water in the bucket next to the well. He poured half of the pot of water, found the chopped potatoes and radishes, and began to prepare the next pot of noodles.

It’s too troublesome to find the film, otherwise he would have done that.

Taking out another bottle of tomato sauce, Li Long prepared to make a pot of sour and spicy noodles.

Of course, mixed noodles would be fine, but he felt it was a bit uncomfortable to eat that so late at night.

The water boiled, and then… Li Long was not in a hurry, and slowly cooked the noodles. He scooped a bowl, and there was more than a bowl left, which he scooped into a small enamel basin. The stove was still on fire, and if it was left in the pot, it would not take long for the noodles to become mushy even if the pot did not dry out.

A dog from somewhere ran over and looked for bones to eat under the table.

Li Long's yard is now located at the southernmost end of the settlement. Ordinary dogs may not be able to find it, but this dog has a very sensitive nose, so since it has found it, let it eat it.

Li Long had good intentions, but the dog misunderstood. Seeing Li Long looking at it, it thought that Li Long was trying to steal its food, so it bared its teeth. Li Long was a little unhappy. Seeing that Li Long did not move, the dog thought that it had not scared the other party, so it took two steps forward and opened its mouth.

Hey, it wants to bite me!

Li Long looked down and saw a stone on the gravel ground. He kicked the stone and it flew over and hit the dog's leg.

The dog let out a scream and limped away.

Li Long was satisfied.

I took the chopsticks and picked up the bowl to eat, but it felt a bit inappropriate to be outside. It was not completely dark yet, what was a groom doing eating noodles outside? Was he kicked out?
So he turned around and walked into the house, holding the bowl in one hand and the enamel basin in the other. After entering the house, he hooked the door with his foot and kicked it back, and the door closed.

Putting the enamel basin on the kitchen chopping board, Li Long left the kitchen and planned to eat in the living room. As soon as he sat down, he saw the curtain of the master bedroom lifted, and Gu Xiaoxia leaned out half of her body, leaning against the door, looking around with a dazed look, and then fell on him.

Li Long was a little embarrassed holding the bowl, so he stretched out his hand and asked:

"Do you want to eat the freshly made noodles?"

"...Eat." Gu Xiaoxia nodded, but didn't move. Li Long stepped forward and handed the bowl to her. After Gu Xiaoxia took it, he said:
"Come, sit at the table and eat. The bowl is still a little hot."

"Okay." Gu Xiaoxia was burned and her eyes became clear. "Did I fall asleep just now?"

"Yeah. I'm really tired. There are indeed a lot of things to do today."

"Hehe..." Gu Xiaoxia suddenly laughed, and came to the table with the bowl in hand. Just as she was about to eat, she put down her chopsticks and asked:

"What about you? How about I give you half?"

"No need, there's more in the kitchen. I'll go get it now." Li Long smiled and went to the kitchen.

Gu Xiaoxia looked at Li Long's back and smiled.

When Li Long brought a bowl of noodles over, he found that Gu Xiaoxia had not started eating yet. He held half a bowl of salted leeks in his other hand, put it on the table and said:

“It tastes better if you mix it.”

"it is good."

The two of them started eating together. After eating, Gu Xiaoxia collected the dishes and went to clean up. When she came back, Li Long had already poured two and a half cups of warm water.

"Drink some water to get rid of the smell."

"Yeah." Gu Xiaoxia took the cup and sat on the right side of the sofa, next to Li Long. She suddenly blushed.

Li Long didn't see it and drank the water slowly.

"What are we doing tomorrow?" Gu Xiaoxia felt the atmosphere was a bit strange and couldn't help asking while holding the cup of water.

Li Long asked her to take a leave, so she took three days off, starting from tomorrow. She had no idea what to do during these three days.

"Tomorrow? We'll return the money tomorrow." Li Long explained to her, "You see, so many things in the yard are borrowed. We have hired so many people to help with the wedding today, serving dishes and presenting gifts. We have to thank them tomorrow. All the borrowed tables, chairs, bowls and dishes in the yard must also be returned..."

"Oh..." Gu Xiaoxia had heard of the term "Choudong" before, but didn't know what it specifically did. Now she understood it.

"The day after tomorrow, we'll go to your father's place together." Li Long continued, "You should know this..."

"Isn't it three days before the visit?" Gu Xiaoxia was a little puzzled, "Isn't the day after tomorrow the second day?"

"Haha, you really haven't understood this." Li Long smiled and said, "For weddings and funerals, the dates are all counted from the day. Today is the first day, tomorrow is the second day, and the day after tomorrow is the third day. You will return to your parents' home on the third day."

"So that's how it's calculated..." Gu Xiaoxia suddenly realized, "I heard before that it takes three days to return home, but I thought that day didn't count."

"Okay, stop talking so much. It's getting late. We should rest." Li Long stood up, put down the cup, reached out to pull Gu Xiaoxia up, took the cup from her hand and put it on the table, then pulled her into the bedroom.

Gu Xiaoxia struggled a little, then let Li Long lead her to the bed.

"Look, the dress is wrinkled. We need to wash and iron it tomorrow." Li Long helped Gu Xiaoxia unbutton her red wedding dress and said, "You can only wear it today. Hang it up at the back as a souvenir."

"Why can't I wear it in the future?" Gu Xiaoxia was shy, but after hearing what Li Long said, she felt it was a pity. How could such good clothes only be worn once?

"Then don't you think it's weird to wear bright red clothes when you go out? It's not good in the office, right? This dress is a wedding dress, the color is bright, it's okay to wear it today, this day is for celebration, but it's a bit weird to wear it outside on other days."

The explanation was normal, but when Li Long started to take off Gu Xiaoxia's shirt, she immediately struggled to get rid of it. This was a subconscious reaction. Then, under Li Long's strange gaze, she whispered: "I... I can do it myself."

This day is a magical day for every young couple. Gu Xiaoxia had no intention of resisting, but she felt a little embarrassed to let Li Long take off her clothes.

"Do you want to turn on the lights?" The room was a little dark, or perhaps because the two of them were used to the darkness. In fact, it was almost dark outside.

"No!" Gu Xiaoxia shouted. She was worried that Li Long would turn on the light, which would make her even more embarrassed.

I'd rather have everything done in the dark.

"Okay." Li Long smiled and began to undress himself, a little impatiently.

certain.

Gu Xiaoxia took her time to take off her shirt, then the other clothes. When the two of them got into bed, Li Long said comfortably:

"It's better to lie down than to be comfortable. It's true... It's still more comfortable under the quilt."

The quilt was a little cold, but for two passionate young people, it was nothing.

Gu Xiaoxia agreed with it, and just as she nodded, Li Long reached out his hand.

Even though they usually get along like an old couple, she was still a little nervous when they got into the same bed. No, she was very nervous.

"Don't be nervous. We are a family, right?" Li Long gently held Gu Xiaoxia's hand and sighed, "I never thought... or rather, more than a year ago, I never thought I would be able to marry you home..."

"I didn't expect that you would become someone no one recognized. It's like you were completely different before and after last year." Gu Xiaoxia habitually continued the topic, "I didn't know much about you before. I only heard about you from... Wu Shufen. Later I found out that some things become outrageous when they are spread from person to person."

When Li Long mentioned this name again, he felt a little unfamiliar. He smiled and said:

"Actually, I also find it quite magical. In fact, I was a bit confused and not very sensible before."

As he spoke, he tentatively reached out and slowly held Gu Xiaoxia in his arms. Gu Xiaoxia's body trembled, and she resisted a little, but finally she obediently leaned against Li Long's chest.

"Today, Section Chief Li said that if you want, you can directly become a formal worker of the supply and marketing cooperative. Is it true?" Gu Xiaoxia tried hard to think of other problems to distract herself, because she felt that Li Long's hands were slowly becoming dishonest.

"Well, that was the case half a year ago. At that time, I participated in several events in Shicheng, and I was under the name of the supply and marketing cooperative, which gave the president of the supply and marketing cooperative face. At that time, it was no problem to become a formal worker. Now, I'm afraid it's hard to say. After all, things have passed, and the situation is different now."

Li Long was still very clear-headed. Li Xiangqian was just the icing on the cake and helped him become famous in front of the team members, but he knew very well what was going on. If this kind of thing was not finalized at the time, it would be very difficult to talk about it later.

"Besides, I'm working in the supply and marketing cooperative and getting a fixed salary every month. If we want to live a better life and lay a good foundation for our children, we need money. I don't want to be tied down. It's more convenient to make money outside, and I can earn more."

As Li Long spoke, he leaned over to Gu Xiaoxia's ear and whispered:

"So I'm working hard to make money, and you have to work hard too, to give birth to twins. Family planning is so strict now that we can only have one. Let's work hard together and give birth to twins, so we'll have both sons and daughters..."

"How can I work hard on this?" Gu Xiaoxia was still a little confused and asked directly. Then she reacted and blushed.

"Let's work hard now. It's so late now. Let's not talk about anything else. Let's study together how to have twins..." Li Longshou became even more dishonest and asked, "Have you heard from your father whether there are twins in your family?"

Having twins requires genetic genes, Li Long remembers this very clearly.

"...I think so?" Gu Xiaoxia was no longer able to speak clearly. "Wait...I'll ask my dad the day after tomorrow..."

The sound became strange.

Not suitable for children.

Then came the next day.

Gu Xiaoxia finally understood why Li Long insisted on her taking a leave. If she didn't take a leave, she wouldn't be able to attend the class.

Fortunately, the two of us lived alone in a big yard, so there weren't so many rules. We just had to get up before the people who came to help came.

Li Long is still quite energetic. Although he broke the record, to be honest, he still has some energy left.

He made breakfast while humming a song with great pride, and told Gu Xiaoxia to get up and eat. Gu Xiaoxia got up and put on her clothes, and felt that she had changed both physically and mentally. She felt a little complicated, but she was still very moved when she saw Li Long bring the food to the table.

"I'll do these jobs from now on." Gu Xiaoxia said as she went to wash up. "You're a grown man and you need to earn money outside. I'll do the things in this room. Although I may not do it well, I will learn. Let's live together."

Li Long smiled. There was no hypocritical "it's all your fault" from women in later TV dramas. Instead, there was recognition of the family and responsibility. This is the charm of women in this era. This is the real feminism.

After the two of them finished their meal, Gu Xiaoxia went to clean up, and Li Long began to carry out some ingredients from the kitchen. They got up late, and it was already eleven or twelve o'clock after dinner. After a while, Li Jianguo, Liang Yuemei and others came over, and then those who helped came over.

Li Long doesn't need to worry about rewarding Dong. He just needs to do what Li Jianguo arranges.

Gu Xiaoxia was also trying hard to integrate into this family, doing what she was supposed to do as a hostess. Although she made some small jokes, no one laughed at her.

In the words of Mrs. Lu, he is a state official, a public servant, who eats commercial grain, and he works with us. There is nothing to say, it is already good enough.

Look at that person, she hasn’t even become a civil servant yet, but she just married a man who eats commercial grain, and her eyes are already set on the sky!
There is no way. Most of the gossip in the countryside comes from comparison. Everyone has sharp eyes. People are afraid of comparison. Once compared, the gap will be revealed.

After a busy day, Tao Daqiang drove the tractor to return the borrowed tables, chairs, benches, etc. Li Long originally wanted to drive it himself, but Tao Daqiang didn't let him, saying that as a groom, he shouldn't do this job and there would be a chance in the future.

After the items were delivered, the people who helped out had towels, soaps, cigarettes, etc. given to them by Li Jianguo, and they were all very satisfied. Li Long and Gu Xiaoxia took the remaining semi-finished products to Li Jianguo's room, and some were for Chen Lirong to take back.

Because they have been processed, some fried, some cooked, so in the current weather can be kept for a few more days. I didn't send it to my father-in-law Gu Boyuan, because there should be a lot of things left there.

That afternoon, the yard became much quieter. Tao Daqiang and his team even dismantled the stove and cleaned up the yard. Only a little bit of lingering smell, and the couplets and red wedding characters indicated that a wedding had just been held here.

The two of them cleaned up the room early, and as soon as it got dark, they went into the bedroom together to discuss how to have twins.

After tasting the sweetness, Li Long felt that Gu Xiaoxia had made rapid progress in this area.

On the third day, they both got up early. Li Long packed the usual gifts, such as wine, canned food, cigarettes, etc. and hung them on the front of the bicycle. He asked Gu Xiaoxia to sit on the back and rode to Gu Boyuan's house.

Gu Xiaoxia's bicycle was also there, but Li Long didn't let her ride it because he was worried that she would feel uncomfortable.

Another reason why I went so early was that I wanted to ask Gu Boyuan early on whether there were twins in Gu Xiaoxia's family genes.

He had never thought about this before, but once he got married and thought about having children, Li Long became a little anxious.

The Gu family yard had also been cleaned up. The two stoves were now only a small piece of soil of different colors. Seeing Li Long and his daughter coming over, Gu Boyuan, who was wearing a suit in the yard, had a smile on his face, but he still complained:

"What are you doing here so early?"

"I'm late, I'm afraid you'll scold me." Li Long smiled, propped up the cart, carried the things into the house, and then said:

"Uncle Gu, I have something important to ask you."

Although Li Long changed his tone when picking up the bride, he still called him Uncle Gu out of habit, and Gu Boyuan thought it was normal. After all, Li Qingxia was old, and Gu Boyuan himself felt uncomfortable with him being on the same level as someone so old.

"Go ahead and ask." Gu Boyuan could see that his daughter looked good and Li Long was also in good spirits. Although he had known for a long time that this was a perfect marriage, he still had to see it with his own eyes to make it count.

"Does the Gu family have the gene to give birth to twins?"

As soon as Li Long asked the question, Gu Boyuan's expression changed.

Li Long saw that there was a story behind this! (End of this chapter)
