Chapter 257 Fat-enclosed muscle
In the yard, Li Rui saw Master Yan return to the house, and hurried to Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang, lowering his voice and saying:
"Da Ya, Xiao Lang, are you craving meat?"
Qin Lang listened and shook his head obediently.
He has eaten a lot of rabbit meat these days, and he eats it in different ways almost every meal.
Li Rui saw him shaking his head and looked at him with a look of disappointment.
Forget it, what this silly boy says doesn’t count, I’d better ask Daya!
Then, he pushed Qin Lang to the side.
He moved closer to Lu Qingqing and looked at her expectantly.
When Lu Qingqing saw him coming over, she didn't know why he asked this question, so she nodded hesitantly.
Li Rui saw her nod and patted her shoulder happily.
His eyes turned towards Master Yan's door at the back, and when he saw no one coming out, he whispered:
"My fellow apprentices and I have agreed that since it doesn't snow today, we're going to go up the mountain and hunt for some wild game!
Daya, are you going with Xiaolang?"
Lu Qingqing thought about the thick snow on the mountain and shook her head subconsciously.
She looked at Li Rui's somewhat excited expression and advised:
"Brother, there are snow wells on the mountain right now. It will be troublesome if you fall into one. You guys should not go there!"
After hearing this, Li Rui looked at Lu Qingqing with some resentment:
"It's been a while since I've eaten meat, and I'm craving it so much.
Last time I wanted to buy some pork, but I got into a fight and came back empty-handed, without even a bone!"
Qin Lang listened and corrected:
"Brother, Daya just sent you a big bag of dried rabbit meat the day before yesterday. You just ate meat!"
Li Rui was exposed and laughed:
"How can they be the same? How can this dried rabbit meat be the same as the stewed fresh meat?
Besides, there's no fat in rabbit meat. Eating it will make you lose fat!"
Then, he pointed to his belly:
"Look how thin I am! All the fat-covered muscles I built up are gone!"
In this era, men consider fat-covered muscles to be beautiful.
Lu Qingqing was speechless after hearing what Li Rui said.
From the first time she met Li Rui, she knew he was a thin man.
Although he has muscles, they are not like Qin Lang's, with large bones and big flesh. Instead, he has the thin muscles that modern people like.
Well, she was led astray by Li Rui again. The focus now was how to stop them from going up the mountain.
Although there are pheasants and rabbits in her space, she has no reason to take them out unless she goes up the mountain to hunt.
The rabbit jerky I had bought before was still an excuse to buy it in Pingtong County.
After thinking for a while, she advised:
"Brother, it's too unsafe to go up the mountain at this time. It's better to go to the nearby village to buy pork!"
Li Rui's eyes lit up when he heard this:
"Besides Dongning Village, are there any other villages nearby that raise pigs?"
"Yes, I asked last time. It's in Yongfu Village, twenty miles away from here!"
After listening to Lu Qingqing, Li Rui said excitedly:
"Then why are you hesitating? I'll go get the carriage and we'll be off!"
Lu Qingqing grabbed him and said, "We need to tell Master and Uncle Tianming about this!"
Li Rui stopped for a moment. He could already imagine how his master scolded him when he brought up this matter.
Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang and said:
"Daya, go talk to Master. Master likes you and Xiaolang the most. I guarantee everything will be alright if you tell him about this!"
Lu Qingqing couldn't help but roll her eyes. This senior brother always tries to trick her whenever something happens.
Forget it, considering that he taught me to work so hard before, let her go!
When Lu Qingqing went to Master Yan's room, Li Rui and several of his fellow apprentices were squatting at the door and eavesdropping.
When they heard Master Yan agree, several people couldn't help but cheer.
Master Yan heard it in the house, laughed and cursed, "You little bastard!"
Just as Li Rui and his companions were cheering, Master Yan lifted the curtain.
"Don't rush to leave, I'll talk to Tianming and see how many people from the team are suitable to go."
Several people nodded obediently, and only cheered happily again after Master Yan left.
Inside the room, the master's wife listened to the cheers of the children outside and bit off the thread on her hand.
Then he took out three woolen hats from the sewing basket on the kang.
Of these three hats, one has white fur and two have gray fur.
In the livestock shed outside the yard, Lu Qingqing, Li Rui and others were feeding the livestock when they heard their master's wife calling them.
"Daya, Xiaolang, Shufu, the three of you come here!"
"Hey, Master's Wife, here she comes!"
After the three of them agreed, they ran out of the livestock shed together and saw three fur hats in the master's wife's hands.
The master's wife stood at the door, looking at the three people with a smile, and said softly:
"This is made for the three of you. Come over here and try it out to see if it's the right size."
Lu Qingqing took the white fur hat handed to her by her master's wife, touched the fluffy fur, and liked it very much.
After she put it on, she touched the fur on the front of the hat and couldn't help but sigh:
"Wow, it looks so good, and the fur is so comfortable. Thank you, Master's wife. You are so beautiful, kind, and skillful!"
The master's wife was so amused by her that she couldn't stop smiling. She took her in her arms and said with a smile:
"Why is Big Girl's mouth so sweet? Come, Master's Wife, take a look.
That's great! Daya looks even more handsome in this hat!"
Next to them, Qin Lang and Lu Shufu had also put them on, and they also came to the master's wife to show off.
I have to say that the master's wife has excellent skills, and the materials she chooses match the fur very well.
Lu Qingqing looked at Qin Lang, then at Lu Shufu. The young man was already good-looking, and with the woolen hat on, he looked even more noble.
In short, just one word, beautiful!
The three men surrounded the master's wife and praised her, pinching her shoulders and pounding her legs, successfully making her laugh.
Soon, the three of them put on the heart-shaped hats that the master's wife had just made.
When Li Rui saw this, he pretended to be sad and sighed:
"Master's skills are getting better every year. How come I started earlier than you?"
As he spoke, he patted Tu Rong's shoulder and said:
"Tell me, isn't the new hat made by Master's wife much better looking than the one she made for us before?"
Tu Rong nodded seriously and sighed.
The mistress looked at the group of boys and couldn't help but laugh:
"You guys are just fools. What's wrong? You think the hats I made before are not good-looking? Then take them off and give them to me!"
Several fellow disciples covered their hats tightly and ran away laughing.
Not long after, Master Yan also came back.
Lu Tianming knew that he wanted to buy a pig, so he asked someone to go to the other two yards and call people over.
In addition, he went to Yang Yongyan's home alone and asked Yang's father about the situation in Yongfu Village.
But what Yang's father said was only what he learned when he went to the town before.
After winter came, no one from the village went to the town.
Since Yongfu Village is not far from the town, and without knowing what the situation is like there, a large number of people decided to go out.
Finally, the people who would go out on this trip were decided.
In addition to Lu Qingqing's nine brothers and sisters, there were eleven men from the village, a total of twenty people going together.
All twenty people were armed, and all the livestock in the house were harnessed to the carts and went out.
This time, Lu Tianming led the team, and what they discussed was to buy as many pigs as possible.
