  1. A slip of the pen.

  2. I'm busy eating, sleeping, going to work, and feeding the dog.

  3. Thank you for understanding and supporting me, also thank you for hating me for not being good enough.

  Hunting, the forest on the mountain still has a thin layer of residual snow, the waterfall flows happily, hidden in the middle of the mountain, looking far away is a white strip, with unknown light purple wildflowers already budding, the air is sweet and the scenery is beautiful to the extreme, Xu Saihan holds a shotgun, crouching, searching for prey.

  For Xu Saihan in the army, shooting rabbits is a piece of cake. The gray wild rabbit sneaks around to find tender green grass, gets targeted, and with a "bang", Xu Saihan rushes out like a small hunting dog, quickly strings it up with branches, and proudly carries it on her shoulder. Xu Saihan takes out a camera from the car to take a photo of her, this is her hobby, everyone's hobbies should be respected.

  Xu Sairen finally targeted a tree where a large pheasant was sleeping, the color was too bright, he raised his gun and aimed. The pheasant was sleeping soundly, suddenly there was a loud noise, it fell to the ground with a thud, its belly burst open, its internal organs hanging from the treetops in all directions.

  They hunted a few more small wild rabbits, and Xu Sairen's stomach growled with hunger. She still wanted to hear Shen Shuxian talk about more new things at the Nanhui Girls' School, so she urged, "Brother, let's hurry up and go to Shen's house, I'm hungry again."

  To her home, it's just a short walk, no cars can get through. The two of them walked slowly, discussing how to make the game taste better.

  Shen Shuxian sat at the door shelling corn, her two hands were frozen bright red, and so was her nose. Seeing them coming, she quickly wiped her hands and greeted them.

  There's nothing valuable at home, and there's no electricity. At night, they can only light oil lamps. Xu Saihan sits in front of the table waiting for dinner. Suddenly, he says to Shen Shuxian who is busy in the kitchen, "Forget it, let's go roast something together."

  In the courtyard, a bonfire was lit, and with an iron fork, the rabbit and pheasant were skewered. The internal organs were removed, and salt was evenly applied. Shen Shuxian looked at the two rabbits with eager anticipation, their bloody fur hanging on the back of the door. Perhaps when her mother returned, she could sew a rabbit fur collar.

  Three people gnawed on the steaming hot rabbit, chatting, it was so delicious, crispy outside and tender inside, with a rich meaty aroma, no animal is better than rabbit. The surroundings of the bonfire were warm and cozy, in the yellow mud under the bonfire, sweet potatoes were being roasted, when the fire was almost extinguished, they were dug out, the skin of the sweet potato was torn open, revealing a bright orange color, another wave of fragrance wafted up. Xu Saille usually couldn't get to eat such countryside delicacies, she was so happy that she danced with joy, "It's too delicious, I'm too happy!"

  Shen Shuxian and Xu Saihan exchanged a smile, but suddenly felt embarrassed again.

  Men all have some carnal thoughts about beautiful girls.

  The woman thought the handsome man was a bit out of her league.

  Xu Saihan is not married, and Shen Shuxian is not married either.

  These days have been especially happy, especially Xu Saille, who is so happy that she doesn't want to go back, and the journey has been delayed day after day. Xu Baoshan is not worried either, letting Jingyi nag in his ear. The child has grown up, going out to play, it's nothing serious.

  Three people often go hunting together, but Xu Saihan's shooting skills are the most accurate, and he often asks the two women to track footprints and carry prey. Sometimes Xu Sailu stays at home sleeping in, and Xu Saihan goes out with Shen Shuxian, not returning until noon. Shen Shuxian also teaches Xu Sailu how to identify medicinal herbs on the mountain, such as rockhead lettuce which can expel tapeworms, catgut grass which is a muscle relaxant and blood activator, and dispels wind and dredges collaterals. The light gray volute arborvitae grows in shaded and humid mountain slopes, under trees, on rocks by streams or old stone walls. The cave heads on Cloud Platform Mountain are more numerous, can stop bleeding and is also called nine-death revival grass and immortal grass. There's also shade-loving ferns which can clear lungs and dissolve phlegm, and detoxify.

  Xu Saille said, "Yeah, I'll go back and tell my father, his lungs aren't very good, he's always coughing."

  After the beginning of love at first sight, it was a process of dry firewood. Xu Sairen slept in the inner room, saying that the gap between the doors of the main hall was large, and the wind blew like a ghost crying, so the inner room was quiet and not afraid of ghosts.

  Xu Saihan slept in Yao Jinyi's bed, while Shen Shuxian leaned against the wall and slept beside her.

  "Are you afraid?" Xu Saihan asked, turning his head in the darkness. He liked to hear her soft and delicate voice, just like her slender waist, which he had hugged in that dream on that day. When he woke up in the hotel that day, his pants were all wet, fortunately, he had spare clothes with him.

  "I'm used to it." Shen Shuxian sighed, "You and I are people from two different worlds. Look at the roof of my house, I'm really afraid that one day it will collapse, and I won't even know how I died."

  "Do you have someone in mind?" Xu Saihan was startled by his own words.

  Shen Shuxian thought of Ning Xingguo's face in the darkness, but what came out was the opposite, "No one has ever appreciated me."

  Xu Saidan said, "No wonder, your school is all girls. What type of man do you like?"

  "Yes, but I'm too lazy to think about what's going to happen in the future. Thinking too much doesn't make any sense anyway. As for what kind of person, it's always been others who choose me, not the other way around. Whatever comes my way is whatever comes." Shen Shuxian felt a wave of sorrow rise up within her.

  I woke up this morning and I'm so angry, a trash company is promoting something and they have to drag me into it, as if I must be looked down upon by them.

  The post is here, I wrote it, everyone go take a look first, and also, everyone please buy more of my books in the future, being compared by others makes me feel very depressed.

  But even if it sells well, those rubbish companies will still use that kind of rubbish tactics to promote their rubbish products.
