Chapter 199 Today's days are full of energy
Shen Yuan did not continue teasing her. He shifted his gaze to her feet and turned around to get another basin of hot water.
"Just soaked my feet in the rain."
Shen Yuan placed the basin of hot water beside the bed, moved a small stool and sat beside it, then reached out and took her feet and put them into the basin.
The little feet are cold.
Although it is still summer, it is indeed a bit chilly after the sudden rain.
He put Su Wanwan's feet into the basin. The water temperature was comfortable, and she couldn't help but feel relaxed all over.
Shen Yuan sat beside the basin, fiddling with her toes with his hands, rubbing every crevice with his slightly rough fingers.
In fact, my daughter-in-law's feet are very clean.
These two feet are small, with cute round toes. Holding them in your hands feels like holding a piece of carved work of art.
He seemed to be playing with her, or kneading her. Su Wanwan's face turned red. She wanted to pull her feet back, but he held them tightly.
"Don't move, I'll help you press it."
Shen Yuan took the foot towel beside him, wiped her feet dry, then placed them directly on his legs and wiped the other one.
Su Wanwan tapped her toes, feeling a little embarrassed, but then she thought, why should she be embarrassed? The man was willing to pamper her, and they were a proper couple, so what was there to be embarrassed about?
But this was an ancient man, and a general who had been on the battlefield, yet he washed her feet so gently.
There are many men today who can’t do this.
She didn't expect that after traveling back to ancient times, she would get such a cheap husband. Is this God's compensation to her?
Shen Yuan put both of Su Wanwan's feet on his legs and sat on the bench to massage her feet.
His strength was just right, neither too light nor too heavy. Su Wanwan had never been to a foot massage parlor in modern times, but she enjoyed the foot massage service here.
"Do you know how to do this?"
Su Wanwan looked at this big man, a rough guy, careful and gentle.
"No, I just pinched it casually. Do you feel better?"
Shen Yuan kneaded it very seriously. He didn't know much about acupoints, so he just kneaded a few places that were prone to soreness and tiredness.
"I don't walk much every day, so my feet aren't tired. It's you who's working hard every day."
Su Wanwan really felt that Shen Yuan had worked hard.
Ever since she came here, he seemed to be busy every day. After finishing the work in the fields, he would go on to work in the workshop, as if he had never had to rest on the ground.
She stayed at home every day, occasionally chatting with her sisters-in-law, teaching the children math, and cooking.
"What's so hard about this? It's not hard at all. I'm full of energy now."
Shen Yuan felt that his current life was like he was full of energy and had endless energy.
"I'm happy to do that. I'll massage your waist again tonight. I think my skills are getting better and better."
Shen Yuan was happily kneading her, but Su Wanwan's waist inexplicably felt weak.
His skills were getting better and better, but he always became restless while pressing.
Su Wanwan retracted her foot.
"That's enough. It would be bad if Xiao Yue'er and the others come in and see it."
Shen Yuan stood up happily, threw his wife's socks into the basin, and prepared to take them out to wash.
"What do you see? It's natural for a man to love his wife. It's a good opportunity for little Yunyi to learn from her. Isn't this what you mean by teaching by example?"
Su Wanwan: ......
After Shen Yuan finished speaking, he poured the water outside.
Su Wanwan put on her slippers and walked to the door. She saw that the water was very deep.
"Shen Yuan, I don't know how long this rain will last. If it keeps raining, it's probably not a good thing."
Shen Yuan was also a little worried.
"This is only the first day. Let's wait and see. If it doesn't work, we'll head up the mountain."
Su Wanwan thought that this was the only way, and hoped that there would be no flood.
"Have we ever had an earthquake here? It's like a dragon turning over in the ground."
Su Wanwan continued to ask.
Shen Yuan frowned even deeper.
"After a severe drought there will be a severe disaster. Wanwan's worry is correct, but there is no record of earth dragons turning over in our history. It has happened in the south and north."
Su Wanwan felt relieved now.
It seems that this place is not in an earthquake zone.
As long as it's not an earthquake, everything else is fine.
But she couldn't just do nothing, so Su Wanwan found a medical book in the space to see how the ancients defended against the plague. She also found a few prescriptions for treating the plague and copied them down.
Fortunately, God was merciful and the rain did not last forever. Three days later, the sky cleared up.
The dry and cracked earth seemed to come back to life all of a sudden.
At this time, Lin Yi found his home.
They have been resting for three days, and now that the weather has finally cleared up, it's time to get back to work.
Otherwise he would always feel that he was getting paid in vain. However, he waited for a whole morning and the boss didn't come, so he couldn't help but run over to ask.
"Boss, we have discussed it. Only three households with fifteen people are going to leave. The rest of you will stay. We will leave after we finish the work."
Naturally, Lin Yi wanted to stay as well. He was the only one left at home and there was no point in going back.
What's more, it's already July, and they won't have any seeds to plant if they go back, and they might miss the best time to sow.
It’s better to fight for a living outside.
Shen Yuan was not surprised by this result.
If he put himself in his shoes, he would not choose to go back at this time.
"Okay, then let those three families come to get their wages, and each family will get a bag of food, and then we will send them out of the village."
Shen Yuan didn't try to keep him.
"Then I thank you on their behalf."
Lin Yi thanked him immediately.
"You guys should live in the house now. Set up the thatched shed over there and arrange for a few people to stand guard every night. The ground is still too wet, so we will start working in two days."
Shen Yuan arranged the next tasks.
"But we can't rest all the time. Boss, please don't be polite. If there is any work, including housework, just tell us."
Lin Yi is a person who cannot sit still. After three days of rest, he was already a little panicked. If he is allowed to rest for two more days, he will be so anxious that he will die.
"Don't worry, we'll really need you guys when we're farming in a couple of days."
As soon as Shen Yuan finished speaking, the village head Liu Daping appeared at the gate.
"Lin kid is here too, that's great, are you guys leaving?"
Liu Daping walked in without any courtesy, and Lin Yi immediately stepped forward and told him their plan.
The village chief nodded and said, "It's better to stay here. You can buy food with the money before going home. Winter is the hardest time to endure."
Lin Yi was also a perceptive man. Thinking that the head of the village must have something to say to his boss, he immediately said goodbye.
As soon as I got back to my residence, I saw Zhao Yuanyuan coming towards me with a wronged look on her face:
"Brother Lin, did Yuanyuan do something wrong recently?"
Zhao Yuanyuan looked a little resentful, and her eyes looked pitiful, as if Lin Yi was a heartless man.
"you are right."
Lin Yi didn't look at her much. He responded, called two men, and prepared to go to the workshop to clean up.
"Yes, why haven't you been paying attention to me recently?"
Zhao Yuanyuan looked at his receding back, tears of grievance almost falling.
