Chapter 86 Lynx

Sensing that his tense body suddenly relaxed, Jiang Zhu chuckled.

　　"What did you think I was going to do just now?"

　　Ye Annian grabbed the quilt and buried his entire face in it. The tips of his ears were so red that they were almost transparent.

　　"It's not what you said..." I want to do something intimate.

　　Jiang Zhu seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and stretched out her hand to press on his waist: "Isn't this still close?"

　　Ye Anyian:...

　　This guy is so annoying.

　　"When I came back today, the bullock cart was running a little faster. I forgot to take care of your feelings."

　　"Actually, it's okay," Ye Anyian's voice was a little muffled, "It should be fine after some sleep... um."

　　Before he finished speaking, he felt a pain in his waist, and he let out a low cry out of surprise.

　　"It's all bruised here." Jiang Zhu pressed it with his fingertips, "Please put some medicine on it, it will heal quickly."

　　Ye Anian naturally had no choice, so he lay down obediently and waited for him to pour the medicated oil on his waist and then rub it out little by little.

　　The medicinal oil touched his skin, making him tremble because of the coldness, but he was quickly covered by Jiang Zhu's hot hands, and he kneaded it away bit by bit.

　　The painful area immediately eased a lot, and the soreness and numbness in my waist also eased.

　　He didn't know how long Jiang Zhu kept pushing for him, but then his eyelids became heavier and heavier and he fell asleep directly.

　　When I woke up, it was already dark.

　　Ye Annian moved and found that he was tightly held in Jiang Zhu's arms, but the quilt was pulled away by him, and both arms were exposed.

　　When he moved like this, Jiang Zhu also woke up, put his hands back into the quilt, and tucked the corners of the quilt.

　　"You woke up so early. How do you feel about your sleep last night?"

　　Ye Annian moved his hands and feet and turned over again. He felt that the fatigue from last night had completely disappeared.

　　"It seems... not bad."

　　"What about here?"

　　He reached out and pressed Ye Anyian's waist.

　　The heat in his palms had subsided, and Ye Anyian felt a little itchy when he pressed her: "It's better."

　　"It's not yet dawn, let's sleep a little longer." Jiang Zhu hugged him over again, and the two of them lay face to face, and their breath blew hot on each other's cheeks, making them itchy.

　　Ye Anyian took a deep breath, his heart beating loudly in his chest, but he couldn't fall asleep.

　　Jiang Zhu saw that his eyelashes were trembling, but he glanced here and there, then reached out to grab his chin, and moved up to kiss the corner of his mouth.

　　Ye Anyian's face heated up and he glared at him.

Jiang Zhu laughed: "I thought that's what you meant."

　　"Shameless."

　　"There's no one else here."

　　Ye Anyian ignored him.

　　Jiang Zhu pinched the tips of his red ears with her fingers and changed the subject: "What are your plans for today?"

　　"Let's continue doing the Rubik's Cube." Ye Annian paused and then said, "Should we build a shed for the cows?"

　　"Probably. It's getting colder and colder tomorrow, and the cows will have to live without a place to live."

　　"Then, do we need to find someone?" Ye Anyian has no experience in this field and doesn't know much about it.

　　Jiang Zhu shook his head: "I can do it by myself, but I may need someone to help me."

　　"I'll help you." Ye Anyian blurted out.

　　"Okay, then go to bed quickly. When it gets dark, we will go up the mountain."

　　"Then you won't go to town for medical treatment tomorrow?"

　　"We'll go in the afternoon. We have a car now, but we don't have to go any time."

　　Ye Annian thought about it, so he didn't ask anything else.

　　He put his hands on Jiang Zhu's shoulders, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep in Jiang Zhu's arms.

　　When the two woke up again, it was already bright.

　　The house was unusually quiet. The boiled porridge and eggs were warm in the pot. The two children were no longer there. On the small terrazzo floor at the door of the main room, a few words were drawn with charcoal: rabbit, harmful grass.

　　Ye Annian squatted down and looked at it for a long time before he figured out that it should be: Rabbit, cut the grass.

　　Jiang Zhu came out of the house rubbing his forehead and saw him squatting at the door reading the writing on the ground. He deliberately teased him: "Do you recognize it?"

　　Ye Anyian was still confused and blurted out: "Rabbit, cut the grass. The two children should have gone with Shitou to let the rabbits go and cut the rabbit grass."

　　Seeing Jiang Zhu squinting her eyes and staring at him intently, she realized later that he had said before that he couldn't read.

　　"Actually, I... know some of them."

　　Jiang Zhu didn't ask any more questions, just smiled and said: "Then you are pretty good. You know words, you can count, and you can do woodwork. It seems that I made the profit."

　　Ye Annian took the charcoal on the side and pulled it on the ground: "I also made a profit. You cured both me and Fu Zai's diseases."

　　He also helped them get rid of the Ye family.

"In this case, wouldn't we be a match made in heaven?" Jiang Zhu stretched out a hand towards Ye Annian, "Get up to eat, and after eating, we have to go up the mountain."

　　They are both smart people and never ask too much about each other's little secrets.

　　Ye Annian knew that Jiang Zhu was definitely not an ordinary person, and Jiang Zhu also knew that he was unusual, but no one touched this layer of paper covering his face.

　　Ye Annian felt that he was very strange. His two lives had made him unable to trust anyone, but he still believed in Jiang Zhu.

　　Probably, the two of them had a tacit understanding not to set foot on each other's secrets.

　　After eating the morning meal, the two of them carried bamboo baskets and led the cattle to Wangyue Mountain behind them.

　　Jiang Zhu found a piece of fertile grassland and asked Ye Annian to look after the cows and wait for him while he went up the mountain to cut some bamboo in preparation for building a cow shed.

　　The breeze was blowing at the foot of the mountain. Ye Annian found a tree and tied the cow to the tree, letting it graze on its own. He then found a shaded area and started mowing the grass.

　　This grass is not for cattle to eat, but to be dried and used as a roof for cattle/sheds.

They brought two large bamboo baskets, but the roof of the shed requires a lot of straw, so two baskets are definitely not enough, so they just carried two baskets back to prepare today.

　　The straw on the roof needs to be dried in the sun, so it can be cut and dried at the same time without wasting time.

　　Ye Annian mowed for a while and saw that the cow had eaten almost all the grass around the tree, so he led it to another place and took a rest himself.

　　But he moved quickly, and within a few hours, both bamboo baskets were filled.

　　Glancing up the mountain, Ye Annian didn't see Jiang Zhu's shadow, so he planned to rest against the big tree for a while.

　　At this moment, three small shadows emerged from the woods opposite.

　　The leader was the smallest, carrying a bamboo basket on his back, and walked very quickly.

　　"Brother Shitou, what should I do with this pheasant?"

　　The child's voice is clear and pleasant, and Ye Anian is very familiar with it. Isn't this the lucky child?

　　The two children at the back must be Shitou and Ding Qiu.

　　Just as he was hesitating whether to go over and say hello to the three children, by chance, Fu Zai had already looked over and made eye contact with him.

　　Fu Zai:...!

　　Xiaotuanzi was startled, stuffed the things he was carrying into Shi Shi's hands, and was about to run away, but was pulled by Shi Shi and kept him from falling.

　　Ye Anyian held his forehead, now he couldn't pretend to see it anymore.

　　He stood up and walked towards the three children. Fu Zai was obviously a little nervous.

　　"Brother... you, why are you here?"

　　Ye Annian turned back and pointed at the cows that were grazing under the tree and said, "Come and herd the cows. I'll wait for you, Brother Jiang."

　　"What about Brother Jiang?"

　　"I went up the mountain to chop bamboo."

　　To build a shed, you need to build a frame. Using bamboo is lighter and faster.

　　"Oh." Fu Zai pointed at his fingers, looking a little embarrassed.

　　Ye Anyian glanced at the two pheasants Shi Shi was carrying and asked, "Did you hunt these pheasants?"

　　Of course not, the pheasant was caught by the Lion King and given to them, but Fu Zai didn't dare to say that.

　　While hesitating, Ding Qiu spoke: "The pheasants were caught with copper coins, and we are about to take them back."

　　Ye Annian lowered his head and glanced at the silly dog ​​circling his thigh, feeling very untrustworthy.

　　However, it was not easy for him to expose a few children, so he had to pretend to nod and believe.

　　Now that he met Ye Anyian, Shitou didn't stay long. He picked up a pheasant, said goodbye to the three of them, and went home.

Ye Annian took his two children and returned to the tree to wait for Jiang Zhu. The three of them studied how to make this pheasant delicious.

　　Not long after, Jiang Zhu walked down the mountain carrying two thick bamboos.

　　Seeing the three people sitting neatly under the tree waiting for him, he smiled and said, "I'm just a root of bamboo, so many people are welcoming me."

　　Fu Zai was very disrespectful and pointed to the pheasant on the ground and said to him: "We are waiting for Brother Jiang to make delicious food for us!"

　　"Hey, you caught them?"

　　Fu Zai shook his head and pointed at the silly dog ​​lying at Ye Anian's feet: "Caught with copper coins!"

　　Now it was Jiang Zhu's turn to be surprised: "Can copper coins still have this ability?"

　　"Woof!"

　　Tongqian kicked off his hind legs, rolled over and got up from the ground, protesting as if he was not convinced.

　　It made everyone laugh.

　　Jiang Zhu put down the bamboo and rested for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, the four of them picked up their things and headed home.

　　As for the pheasant, everyone unanimously decided to make chicken stewed with potatoes.

　　Jiang Zhu said: "Then the staple food will be some corn tortillas."

　　"Okay." Fu Zai licked his lips, "Add some vermicelli in it!"

　　The four of them were talking and laughing. Fu Zai was a child after all, so he ran forward first with the bamboo basket on his back.

　　When he wasn't paying attention, Jiang Zhu approached Ye Anyian and lowered his voice and said, "I was on the mountain and I seemed to see the cat raised by Fu Zai and the others."

　　When Ye Anyian heard this, he immediately became interested: "Did you see it? What kind of cat is it?"

　　"It's yellow with leopard print," Jiang Zhu said, but frowned, "Although it looks small to me, it doesn't look like an ordinary house cat."

　　Ye Annian didn't understand what he meant: "It's not a domestic cat, what is it? A wild cat?"

　　But aren't the ones running outside just wild cats?

　　"It seems to be a bobcat. It's a little far away and I can't see clearly. The cat's hind legs and tail are tied with white cloth, which is very conspicuous. It should be the one that Fuzai and the others rescued."

　　Jiang Zhu said a lot, but Ye Annian keenly captured the key information: Bobcat.

　　Lynx, isn't that a lynx? In modern times, it is a national second-level protected animal.

　　In this case, the pheasant must have been caught by this lynx.

　　However, the size of an adult lynx is not small. It is more than one meter long, weighs fifty or sixty kilograms, and has very strong fighting power.

　　Although the lynx is not big now, it will grow up eventually.

　　Thinking of this, Ye Anyian suddenly became a little worried about the safety of the children.

　　He looked at Jiang Zhu: "You think it's not good to just let three children hang out with bobcats?"
