The Little Landlord of Transmigration

74 Chapter 74

Facing the question he asked suddenly, A Qi first took a deep look at him a few times, and seeing his expression of approval, he finally just packed up his things helplessly and signaled him to go back with him.

"Aqi, isn't it too much for you to do this?" Seeing that he didn't argue at all, Xu Lingyuan was even more dissatisfied.

"Huh?" Hearing what he said, A Qi answered vaguely as if he had been hit by something.

"They are all relatives to you, so it's useless for you to be jealous, and they're not girls from other villages, so why do you need to sabotage them like this?" Seeing that he didn't seem to understand, Xu Lingyuan simply said it out.

Anyway, Ah Qi is already 15 years old. Although he himself didn't show anything particularly obvious, a certain change can be clearly seen from Ah Gui and the others.For example, she used to be careless when she saw Hongying, but now she began to dodge consciously, and she was at a loss for a long time when she occasionally said a word.So talking about this with A Qi now, he doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.

"You really like it?" A Qi said sadly.

"Of course not, they are still so young." Xu Lingyuan denied without thinking.

"You are not as old as them." Hearing this sentence, A Qi looked at him strangely for a moment, and then reminded him seriously.

"Uh, I mean they are not as stable as you, I still like people like you." It seemed that he also felt that there was something wrong with his words, and he didn't know how to explain it, so he casually picked up something he thought was reliable.

"You like someone who is older than you?" A Qi's expression became even more strange.

"I don't like anything, you'd better forget about it." Xu Lingyuan decided to refuse to continue the discussion with an intuition that the problem would be even bigger.

"Yeah." A Qi didn't object at all.

"What about you, Aqi? Do you like anything? Or what kind do you like?" Feeling that the opportunity is rare, Xu Lingyuan asked immediately.

This can't be completely blamed on his curiosity, even in his previous life, although he didn't explicitly like anyone, he still thought about the type he liked, and even had a reaction of alienating the opposite sex like Agui and the others, but he His reaction seemed to be too great, so that since then, he has no way to get close to them, and can only maintain a distanced relationship.

But A Qi didn't seem to have this kind of response at all, just like just now, when he rejected them, he didn't seem to feel embarrassed at all, even if he was an acquaintance, he shouldn't be so straightforward, as if he He really didn't care about his own image at all, and ruined his image by the way.It is estimated that from now on, everyone in the village will know how precious he is, even if he eats a shrimp, he is afraid of pricking his mouth.

"..." A Qi seemed to be very conflicted, just looked at him from time to time, but didn't say anything.

"Oh, I almost forgot that we were engaged. I was wrong, so don't look at me with such sad eyes." Thinking that his own problem made him embarrassed, Xu Lingyuan quickly made up with a smile.

Seeing that he started to be unruly again, A Qi didn't bother with him, the two of them put the fish bucket in A Qi's house and went to the yard.

It's just that in the next study, A Qi was distracted by what just happened from time to time.

Is he jealous?But who is jealous?When he was catching fish in the lake, he heard Agui and the others whispering jokes about Xu Lingyuan and those girls, wondering if Xu Lingyuan fell in love with someone's sister, or was liked by someone, he felt very irritable, even The fish that swam to his hand did not cheer him up either.

And then seeing them chatting and laughing on the shore, he suddenly felt a little angry, as if he had been betrayed. He had only left him for a while, and he could get so familiar with others, and still Even Agui and the others deliberately avoided the girl, so he, who no longer wanted to catch fish, went ashore full of irritability and anger.

It's just that when he just walked over, the other party noticed him and didn't refute his words, all the unhappiness in his heart suddenly disappeared, even he was a little surprised that he was really so angry just now what?

In fact, he treats himself very differently from others, right?As if he knew that what he said was not good for him, he followed him, and he didn't refute at all, and he wouldn't get angry.It's just that such a difference seems to be far from enough for him.

As for Xu Lingyuan, he seemed to realize that there was something wrong with Ah Qi's mood. Although he offered to come back to read the book, seeing his absent-minded look at this time, he didn't want to remind him. He just hoped that he could recover sooner. .

"Aqi, I was really not angry yesterday, so don't take it to heart." Xu Lingyuan looked at the small half bucket of shrimps in Aqi's hand and said happily.

"Well, I didn't." Seeing that he was much more excited than when he was catching shrimp yesterday, A Qi said with satisfaction.

Early this morning, probably only around four o'clock, he was called out of bed by A Qi, and the two of them left the house lightly with wooden barrels and baskets, and walked along the canal that was draining water, as long as they encountered two canals At the place where they meet, Aqi puts his hand into the aquatic plants at the entrance, and he can catch a handful at a time. Since the claws of this kind of shrimp are relatively small, Aqi's hands are not afraid of being caught, and he just waits to use a basket. to catch.

Compared to catching one by the lake for half a day, it is so easy here. As soon as he went down into the basket, there were ten or twenty jumping around in the basket. By the time the sky was completely bright, half of them had been caught. barrel up.

On the way back, he realized that there is a habit here, that is, when the water is released, he can catch a lot of fish when he comes out in the middle of the night, and before dawn, he can find the right place, just like them, and he can catch a lot of shrimp.Although he didn't know whether such a conclusion was correct, these gains could not be questioned.

"There are so many, it would be a pity if you can't finish them." After the excitement, Xu Lingyuan felt a little worried again when he thought that these shrimps could hardly be kept alive.

"After peeling off the shell, there is not much left." A Qi said naturally.

"..." Anyway, he was not at a disadvantage, so Xu Lingyuan could only recite silently in his heart.

It's just that when he went to the village later, someone always kindly asked him if it was true that he didn't like to eat shrimp because he thought it stuck in his mouth, so he could only admit it silently.So many shrimps have been eaten into the stomach, the so-called "take others' hands short, eat others' mouths soft." It is impossible to say that A Qi framed him, right?

But when everyone saw him, they admitted it so straightforwardly. While making fun of him for being precious, they also secretly felt sorry for the girls in the village. Such a delicate person is not something the wild girls in the village can take care of well.Since none of them would say these things to his face, the misunderstanding continued like this.

After the holiday in the academy, Xu Siyuan finally got Xu's mother's permission to come here to stay for a while.

It's just that this time he doesn't need to worry about sleeping anymore. Although the bed is relatively big, it's a hot day and there are empty rooms and beds, so there is really no need to squeeze together.He originally wanted to discuss it with A Qi. After all, they are not young anymore. Even if Xu Siyuan didn't come, it would be comfortable to live separately. In case of coming.

If it wasn't for A Qi's unwillingness to trouble them, he would have prepared a room for him alone at the beginning, and it was empty anyway, but he didn't expect him to bring it up by himself, just looking at his embarrassment at the time , he seemed to suddenly understand why.Although it may be due to his poor health, he has no such embarrassment for the time being, but when a person grows up, he should have some privacy, so he agreed very understandingly.

Although after that, A Qi still treated him very well, but sometimes he would deliberately alienate him, but he didn't care too much, and it happened that there was another Xu Siyuan, and he even threw these little doubts to the back of his mind up.

"Brother, what are those black things?" When playing in the village, Xu Siyuan suddenly pulled him and asked, pointing to something on a tree.

"That's fungus, it can be used for cooking." He was already a little dizzy from his continuous questions, but after seeing the things on the tree clearly, he suddenly regained his energy.

"Little Xiucai, do you know him? It's obviously rotten ears. People will rot if they eat them." Someone immediately retorted.

"That's right, if you don't believe me, I'll go up and pick some for you to see. They're soft and disgusting."

"How can you eat that kind of black thing!"

"Hey, he said he could eat it, so let's pick some for him."

As they refuted, someone climbed up, picked up the biggest ones, and pulled them down with branches.

"Brother, is that really edible?" Although he didn't want to doubt his words, after carefully observing the black thing, Xu Siyuan still hesitated.

"Well, you can't eat them directly. You can soak them after drying." Xu Lingyuan explained while picking them up.

"I know which trees are still there. If you want, we will pick them for you." Although they still don't believe his words, they are still very interested when it comes to eating, especially Xu Lingyuan has made a lot of good things. Things to eat.

So in the following time, all the children in the village walked with their heads up. Whenever they saw the fungus, they would pick it off and send it to his home.In this way, I really accumulated a lot.Seeing that he really put it away, even the adults in the village began to waver, asking if they could try it then.

Seeing that their ability to accept new things has been significantly enhanced after their success in raising seedlings, Xu Lingyuan has become more confident in his future plans.

"Young master is going back tomorrow? Yes, it's not easy to get used to living here. It's a bit wronged for people as noble as you." The people who were enjoying the shade in the open space of the village together learned that Xu Siyuan was the next day I'm leaving, I said very understandingly.

"Young master, do you people in the city have to shell the shrimp?" Someone asked boldly in the dark of night.

"Look at the thin-skinned and tender-skinned ones. They are not like us. They are rough-skinned and thick-skinned. When they eat, they wish they could swallow the bones. Even if Mr. Xiao has lived here for so long, he doesn't want to eat. What's the point of asking?" Probably seeing that Xu Siyuan was being questioned, someone quickly helped him out.

"Actually..." Xu Lingyuan really didn't want to admit the stigma of being delicate and expensive.

"Little Xiucai, let's tell a story. Although your story is not scary at all, I haven't heard it from you for a long time." Suddenly someone interrupted him and suggested.

"..." Since it is so reluctant, can he not speak?

Because of the hot weather, it was too early to fall asleep, so he took Xu Siyuan to the village to enjoy the cool after dinner, and listened to people's gossip and stories by the way.Just let him speak, this is the first time.

"If you have a story to listen to, you still pick it. If it were me, I wouldn't want to tell it." An adult said for him.

"Little scholar, we won't dislike you, let's talk about it quickly." The children immediately changed their words.

"Brother..." Xu Siyuan suddenly said.

"Ahem, let me think about it." Xu Lingyuan said while thinking.On weekdays, I would tell them some small stories with morals, but now there are adults present, it seems that it is not appropriate to tell them, but what stories are suitable for all ages?

"Well, let's stop here today, it's getting late." His mouth was a little dry, and he finally couldn't help but say.

"Tell me a little longer, you've never told us this before."

"Then Monkey King's eyes will still be fine? Go back after you finish talking!"

"There is no one who is such a master, he will drag back!"

"That Zhu Bajie is really unlucky, he turned from a fairy into a pig all of a sudden."

"..."

Listening to their discussion, Xu Lingyuan didn't feel complacent at all. Such enthusiasm made him a little bit at a loss. He was really not a storyteller. While feeling ashamed about the story, I can only sigh that a classic is a classic, and it can not change with time and space.
