Chapter 45
, the fastest update to Travel Through Ancient Times: The House of Shrews!
"Clang!"
The broken wooden door shook twice, and a bunch of snowflakes were shaken down.
Tian Xu, who was rejected by others, had tears hanging on her cheeks, staring blankly at the closed wooden door!
Tian Yuanyuan clapped his hands in disgust. Who is he? He thinks he is an opera singer. Those who cry when they meet are all women. Why do you expect her to show mercy to you?
Outside the door, Mrs. Tian Xu looked at the broken wooden door in disbelief. Perhaps it was the first time she had been turned away. She couldn't accept this fact in her heart, so she stood for a long time before stumbling away.
Tian Yuanyuan hugged the quilt and fell asleep long ago.
The next night, Meng Ji returned home carrying a basket full of prey.
He first put the backpack into the small hut, then opened the wooden door and entered the house.
His movements were very light and he almost didn't make a sound. After taking off his clothes, he opened the quilt and got into the bed, hugged the warm and soft body and sighed with contentment.
"Meng Ji?" Tian Yuanyuan murmured in confusion.
He lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "It's me, go to sleep."
Soon, she fell asleep again.
In the darkness, Meng Ji hugged her tightly.
When I woke up in the morning, Tian Yuanyuan felt the warm chest on his back. It seemed that yesterday was not a dream.
She turned over and looked at the sleeping man quietly.
His long eyelashes cast deep shadows under his eyes, there are a few blackheads scattered on his tall nose, and his chin is green and has a lot of thick stubble, which has reduced a lot in the past few days.
Sometimes she really felt as if she was in a dream. Such a handsome man was actually her husband. It felt unrealistic and false.
She kissed him gently, looked at his handsome face, and giggled.
The next second the man opened his eyes, his dark brown pupils reflected her reflection, and his strong arms hugged her waist tightly.
The man whispered something in her ear, Tian Yuanyuan raised her eyes and glanced at him, it was self-evident.
Meng Ji pulled the quilt to cover the two of them...in the clouds and rain...
When he woke up again, Meng Ji was already up, Tian Yuanyuan beat his sore waist.
Meng Ji was nowhere to be seen in the room, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Tian Yuanyuan put on his clothes and got out of bed, and saw brown rice porridge warmed by the fire.
She filled a bowl of brown rice porridge and walked out the door while drinking it.
The bright sunlight suddenly broke in, and the melted snow under the eaves dripped down in strings. The accumulated snow in the yard also began to melt, making the paths muddy.
A string of footprints extended into the small hut next to it. Tian Yuanyuan returned to the house and put on straw sandals over his cloth shoes. He drank the porridge in the bowl and went to the small hut.
When they entered the small hut, they saw Meng Ji sorting out his prey. Tian Yuanyuan surrounded him curiously.
I saw a lot of prey on the ground, including a few foxes, pheasants and even a few minks.
"Your trip is really worth it, but I don't know if it can be sold in the town!" Tian Yuanyuan squatted opposite him and touched the fox on the ground.
Meng Ji pulled out the long feathers from the pheasant's butt and stuffed it into her hand: "Do you like it?"
"I like it!" Tian Yuanyuan couldn't put it down, playing with the long feather in his hand and exclaimed: "Look! This feather is colorful in the sun, so beautiful!"
Meng Ji straightened the body of the prey and put it layer by layer into the backpack. After loading everything, he said to Tian Yuanyuan: "I'm going to the county today."
"Selling these kills?"
"right."
Tian Yuanyuan stood up: "You wait for me to cook!"
Meng Ji pulled her back: "No, there are still some noodles from last time. I have to go now!"
Tian Yuanyuan suddenly felt a little uneasy, and remained silent while stroking Caiyu in his hand.
Meng Ji touched her hair and explained in a warm voice: "No one in town collects these prey. You can only sell them at a high price in the county or provincial town. Don't worry, I will be back as soon as possible."
"The county seat? I've never been there. I want to go too!"
Meng Ji said in embarrassment, "These ungutted prey rot quickly. If it takes me one day to reach the county seat, and you are included, the time will definitely be extended..."
Tian Yuanyuan raised his head and looked at the tall man in front of him, curling his lips in disappointment: "I understand, you go and come back early."
Meng Ji leaned down and kissed the corner of her lips. When she left, he looked at Tian Yuanyuan with a red face, then turned around and left.
Tian Yuanyuan covered his mouth and snickered. This was the first time Meng Ji was so intimate during the day.
In the past, when Tianyuanyuan sometimes wanted to get intimate, this elm-headed guy would feel like he was facing a formidable enemy. He would talk about things that were inappropriate to etiquette, talk about obscenity in the daytime, and so on... Is this because his brain has become enlightened?
Once the people left, the house became empty again.
She inserted pheasant feathers into the cracks in the window, and the room came alive.
The sun was rising high, Tianyuanyuan took off the quilt cover, took off the sheets and took them to the river to wash.
There were piles of unmelted snow by the river, and ice edges of various sizes hung under the rocks on both sides. The river was clear and chilly.
There were not many people washing clothes today, so she chose a good spot with a big stone, turned the quilt top up and started scrubbing.
After washing for a while, her hands were icy red. Tian Yuanyuan sighed and continued scrubbing the quilt and sheets on the stone.
The sunshine is nice, but the temperature is colder than the previous days. As expected, it is snowing instead of cold.
Just after washing the quilt, two women came over with wooden basins to wash the clothes.
The two of them chose a spot and started squatting down to wash clothes.
What a coincidence, it happens to be located upstream of Tianyuan Garden.
I don't know what kind of clothes they were washing, but wisps of yellow dirty water floated down, and there were also piles of dirt that looked like feces.
Tian Yuanyuan quickly took out the sheets he was washing, and water splashed all over the floor.
"Ouch! It splashed all over me!"
One of the women screamed in dissatisfaction and looked at Tianyuanyuan fiercely.
Tianyuanyuan looked at the distance between the two of them. They were more than three meters apart...even if the elephant were alive, it wouldn't be able to splash on you!
Tian Yuanyuan complained in his heart, his face remained as usual, and he quickly squeezed the water out of the sheets in his hands.
That woman was not someone to be trifled with. She stood up and walked over: "You little whore, you are washing clothes without paying attention and you splashed all over me!"
Tian Yuanyuan straightened up and said with a sarcastic smile: "You and I are not close together, how could I splash on you! Are you here to have nothing to do, are you looking for trouble?"
"You did it on purpose!" The woman's skin was dark and yellow, dry and thin: "Look, I'm easy to bully!"
Tian Yuanyuan put the twisted sheets into the wooden basin, picked up the wooden basin and said, "You are deliberately looking for trouble!"
"I didn't. Didn't you even apologize for splashing dirty water on me?" the woman said reluctantly.
Tian Yuanyuan raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "I didn't splash on you, you just said so! Also, you are washing clothes with feces upstream of me, and I haven't told you yet! Who is too much!"
Another woman who was with the woman interjected: "I saw you splashing all over her."
"I see, you are just here to cause trouble!" Tian Yuanyuan smiled coldly and put the tub aside to prevent it from falling into the river later, which would be more gain than loss.
The woman with black and yellow face put her hands on her waist and looked like a shrew: "You splashed all over me and didn't tell me to blame me! If I don't teach you a lesson today, you still don't know how powerful I am!" After saying that, he raised his hand and said to me.
Hit Tian Yuanyuan in the face!
How could Tian Yuanyuan stand and let her hit him? He immediately stepped back to avoid her hand.
