Chapter 179 (Revised) Who doesn't like sunbathing?
Lin Lanshan is the kind of person who becomes wildly radiant in the sunlight. If you agree to her demands today, she might actually dare to catch a tiger and have it roasted tomorrow...
So you have to scold her when she needs to be scolded, and discipline her when she needs to be disciplined. You absolutely can't let her off too easily, or she'll get arrogant!
Seeing that her younger sister had finally stopped talking nonsense, Lin Chunyi put down her hands to stir-fry the dishes. After a few stirs, she called out, "Put away the firewood and come over to serve the dishes."
Then he placed a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes on the stove, poured half a ladle of water into the pot, and started making winter melon soup.
Add a small plate of lean, sliced cured pork steamed in the rice, and a lunch with vegetables, meat, and soup is ready.
at the dinner table,
As usual, Lin Lanshan first scooped up two full spoonfuls of sour, salty, and slightly sweet scrambled eggs with tomatoes and poured them over the rice, then stirred it well with chopsticks.
Once the rich, red broth coats every grain of rice, place a slice of savory cured meat on top, then ladle in a generous spoonful and pop it all into your mouth!
"Indeed, bibimbap is the eternal god; rice without a broth topping has no soul!" She chewed vigorously with her cheeks puffed out, speaking indistinctly.
"You have to give a speech even while eating a meal. Just shut up and eat properly. Aren't you afraid of choking?"
"You're just jealous that I can eat so much in one bite, hmph~" After swallowing the previous bite, she didn't give her teeth and cheeks a chance to rest and stuffed another spoonful into her mouth.
Lin Chunyi rolled her eyes at her, "Less fantasy, more reading, that's how you develop a good mind." Then she picked up her bowl and ate her own meal, no longer responding to her.
The two of them fought for almost half an hour with two dishes, a soup, and half a bowl of rice!
We finally won this battle and filled our stomachs to about nine-tenths full...
At 1:00 PM, the two sisters, who had taken a nap, naturally woke up.
Lin Chunyi opened the bedroom door and was immediately blinded by the intense sunlight.
"Wow! The sun is so nice, it would be a waste not to dry something in the sun! Lanshan, why don't we dry the chestnuts some more?" The autumn sun was just right, neither too hot nor too cold, and she couldn't resist the urge to dry something in the sun.
They had originally planned to peel the two baskets of chestnuts they had picked last time as soon as they woke up, and see if they could burn the shells into charcoal.
If they're drying now, the shelling work will have to be postponed. Although Lin Chunyi thought this, her feet were already irresistibly moving towards the cellar.
Lin Lanshan followed behind, saying nonchalantly, "Sure, let's sun them some more then. We can leave the chestnuts for now; we can deal with them anytime."
We were planning to wash the winter clothes and blankets from the trunks in the next few days, right? Since the weather's nice today, why don't we take them to the stream to wash and hang them out to dry?
The two men carried two baskets of chestnuts in their shells out of the cellar and dumped them on the open ground in the outer courtyard.
Looking at the pile of spiky balls basking in the warm sun, Lin Chunyi felt instantly relieved and grinned from ear to ear.
It feels inexplicably good to let all sorts of things bask in the sun!
No, just showing this off doesn't feel quite right.
I'm busy this afternoon, so I'll pass. Tomorrow—oh no, tomorrow's picnic—that's out of the question too…
Then the day after tomorrow! If the weather is still this good the day after tomorrow, she will bring out everything in the house that can be dried to air it out!
"Come on, sis, stop looking. What kind of quirk is this? Do you like watching chestnuts sunbathe in the sun?"
After Lin Lanshan spread out the chestnuts with a rake, she noticed her sister staring at them with a... blissful? expression...
Under the bright sunshine, she inexplicably shivered.
Lin Chunyi put the basket she was carrying on the ground. "I told you to read more! This is a normal hobby, but you're the one with an obsession." Then she walked towards the bedroom.
They stuffed all the thick winter clothes and quilt covers they needed into the laundry basket, intending to wash them at the foot of the small waterfall.
There was nothing I could do; the thick cotton-padded coat was too heavy, and the slow flow of the stream by the door couldn't wash away the soap suds on it.
Lin Chunyi stared at the two large baskets of clothes on the ground and said, "It was fine when we went there, but after washing them, each of these cotton-padded coats weighs dozens of kilograms."
"It's unlikely we can carry everything back in one trip... Let's push the cart up, and after we're done washing, Peach will pull the cart back!"
Lin Lanshan readily agreed, replying, "Alright, it's time to let it be a hard-working mule one last time before it becomes a fat mule that does nothing all winter!"
The two pushed the cart out of the storeroom, put two baskets of clothes and two large wooden basins for washing clothes on it, and then went out the door.
When they reached the stream at the end of the pebbled path, they didn't see Taozi or Tuanyuan Ankang, and they didn't know where they had gone.
Perhaps because the stream water is too cold now, they don't like playing by the water anymore.
Lin Lanshan put her hands to her mouth as megaphones and began shouting their names in all directions.
I waited for almost the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, but there was still no response, and I didn't see them at all...
Lin Chunyi pointed in several directions and said, "I'll push the cart to the small waterfall first. You can look around; they'll probably find a place far from the stream, with plenty of grass, and a good spot to bask in the sun."
Just as there are cool places to escape the summer heat, there are also cozy havens to roost in the winter. They're quite clever!
They're probably all full and satisfied by now, lying in a pile, basking in the sun and taking a nap!
"Okay, I'm off then." Lin Lanshan put down one of the handrails of the cart and walked towards the peach grove.
She remembered that near the rose bushes in front of the peach grove, there was a large meadow. In summer, the wildflowers and wild fruits were so plentiful that they were countless!
Lin Chunyi pushed the cart alone and headed towards the small waterfall.
The closer she got to the waterfall, the more desolate she felt. Both physically and sensorily.
At a glance,
The colors of the nearby trees and flowers have faded; half of them are withered yellow and orange-red. The other half are bare, completely devoid of color.
The scene was completely different from what they had seen when they came here to escape the summer heat.
It's like hibernating early because you're afraid of the cold.
Besides the waterfall cascading down from top to bottom, it also violently pounds the water day after day. And as she arrived, the sound of fallen leaves crunching underfoot and being trampled by the wheels of her car echoed through the air.
There was no other sound.
Lin Chunyi chose a spot a little further from the waterfall, found a shallow pool, and put down the cart. She also moved the clothes basket and wooden basin to the ground.
Then he grabbed a wooden basin with both hands, filled it with water, and splashed it onto the cart.
They started cleaning the dust off the cart...
After about the time it takes to drink two cups of tea, Lin Lanshan finally arrived with a "grand" army of pets.
As soon as she got closer, she began to complain indignantly:
"Sister, you have no idea! I ran and called out the whole way, but there was no response. I was so scared that I thought they had run out of the valley, but I didn't expect them to be sleeping soundly in the grass in front of the rose bushes!"
They were all lying in a row, looking like old men, as still as dead pigs, unresponsive to any shouting. "As if everyone likes to lie comfortably in the sun!"
Good heavens! We're getting soaked ourselves, how can we let them have an "umbrella" to shelter them from the rain?
So she woke them all up and brought them over. Whether they had work to do or not, none of them could escape; they all had to get soaked.
Hmph, after all, jealousy has made her unrecognizable!
