The Sweet Little Fulang

The sky was getting darker, the snow was getting heavier, the flakes of snow were like goose feathers, and the white hair wind was blowing.

    After eating, they couldn’t go out, and they had nothing else to do, so the whole family sat around the brazier in the main room. The door of the main room was half closed, leaving a small gap to see the heavy snow outside.

    Shen Xuanqing bought five acres of land, and the winter wheat had already been planted. This was how they sold the fields here. Boss Lu wanted to sell the land himself, not someone else to buy it. No matter what was planted in his field, others didn't care about it, and only bought it according to the number of acres.

    The market price of an acre of fertile land fluctuated around 5 taels, the highest price was not higher than five taels, which was already the best price, some people would see if the person who sold the land was in a hurry, and if they could lower the price, so the other party would still sell it since they were in a hurry.

    Because there were wheat seedlings in the field, the wheat could be harvested in May next year. When Shen Shunfu had an accident, he bought two medicinal plants from Boss Lu, and Boss Lu sold them to him at a low price. The money he earned was the hard earned money from going to the mountains to collect the herbs, that was why Shen Xuanqing didn't press down a single coin today.

    After the beginning of spring, Shen Xuanqing wanted to go to the mountains. It would be fine if he was at home for spring plowing, weeding and watering, but if he was not at home, only Shen Yaoqing could go.

    The family discussed and decided that Shen Xuanqing's five acres of wheat would be enough for a year's supply before selling it. The land of the family was usually taken care of by Shen Yaoqing, and the money from the sale was also his. There was no need to keep the wheat in the land, and all could be sold.

    Living together, there was nothing to suffer or not. Now the rice and flour they ate were all grown by Shen Yaoqing, and they saved enough food for six people and the rest was sold for money. In the future, Shen Yaoqing would have to look after Shen Xuanqing's land. It didn't matter if you worked hard, life was better to complement each other.

    Outside, it was snowing and windy, and the firewood in the brazier was crackling softly, and the firelight was reflected on the faces of a group of people. They felt hot after eating, and their clothes were thick, full and warm.

    After chatting for a while, the door of the main room was blown open by a gust of wind, and the snow splashed, blowing coldly on the body.

    Shen Yaoqing, who was the closest to the door, hurried to close it. Wei Lanxiang said: "Sit on the bed since it's so cold. Once the door is closed, Tang pozi will warm you up. After sitting here for a long time, your legs and feet are cold."

    The firewood in the brazier was almost burned, and Shen Xuanqing wanted to add a few firewood, but he didn't do anything after hearing the words, and went back to the room.

    The windows in the house used the paper, and Shen Yaoqing thickened the paper before the winter, allowing some light to shine through.

    Listening to the wind outside, Lu Gu sat on the bed and covered his legs with the quilt, with the warm Tang pozi inside, he didn’t feel cold at all.

    When he had nothing to do, he moved the small kang table up, and put a sewing basket for easy access, so he was not afraid of tipping over.

    Shen Xuanqing came in from the outside, holding a bowl in his hand, he ran to Wei Lanxiang's room to grab the red dates and dried persimmons, and put the bowl on the kang table.

    Lu Gu was embroidering with an embroidery frame, and he sat and watched him while whispering a few words from time to time, seeing Lu Gu's eyes drooping while he was doing embroidery work, his side face was shining, he really couldn't hold back, he went over to steal a scent, and after kissing, he was still a little bit reluctant, so he kissed him several times, but even if Lu Gu wanted to hide, he didn't dodge it.

    He was bold when he was kissed, but he felt embarrassed after the kiss, but the smile on his face never diminished.

    When eating in the afternoon, it was windy and snowy outside, but inside the house was very happy. The whole family sat around the medicine stove. The mouth of the Youzhong ladle was wide, so they filled it with the bone sticks and some broth and put it on the medicine stove to a simmer.

    The bone sticks had been stewed for more than half an hour, using large firewood, and the meat was so soft that you didn’t even need to use chopsticks. Everyone could hold it in their hands, sprinkled some salt on the meat and ate it. The meat was soft and rotten, it almost came down after one sip in the mouth, and it didn't need the teeth at all. The bones stewed to this extent could be eaten very clean.

    The puppy kept barking when he smelled the meat. Shen Xuanqing had always been kind to his dogs. He picked up a big bone with meat and threw it to the four of them. The puppy stopped barking as soon as he gnawed on the bones and meat.

    Wei Lanxiang saw that even if the big bones were cheap, she was a little bit reluctant, but seeing the second child's nonchalant expression, she knew she couldn't say anything, and seeing that the bones were all bitten by dogs, she had to give up.

    It was the first time for Lu Gu to eat meat and bones like this, and he felt that it was very delicious, the meat was rich in aroma, and the meat on the bones tasted different from the other. If you couldn’t eat in the gap, you could poke it with the tip of your chopsticks, because it was too soft and rotten, it would be poked off, and it would not be ruined at all.

    The white brittle bones were even more different when you bit it. At the end of the meal, Shen Xuanqing took the big bone stick to the kitchen and broke it, and veryone sucked the bone marrow, which was delicious.
