    Xia also began to plow the ground, preparing to plant fennel and onions. Potatoes just came out of this part of the land, and the soil is soft. Xia Yi turned the ground in one morning, and the gully was lined up neatly.

    "179, fennel and onions are not staple foods. How can I eat so many of them? I can't sell them well."

    System: "Host, the task content is set by the main system, I am only responsible for publishing."

    Xia Yi was a little nervous, who knows if the next mission released by the main system will ask for something weird. This group of systems is unbelievable, and they all feel a little bit infected.

    "179, why don't you go to discuss with the main system, the next mission release point is rice or wheat?"

    "This requirement cannot be met, host. Every task issued by the main system is not random, it is a task made after a lot of data research and analysis."

    "But the host can rest assured that the planting target of each mission is to plant ordinary plants."

    The system added another sentence.

    Xia Yi nodded and said, "Okay, as long as I don't ask me to plant Ganoderma lucidum elixir and resurrection grass or something."

    The system said nothing.

    The appearance of the system suddenly made Xia Yi a little alert: "Why don't you speak? You don't answer my question, are you in a guilty conscience?"

    "No, I got stuck for a while and almost crashed." The system replied, the voice floating a bit.

    The weather today is very good, this is for farming, there is no rain and no sun, Gu Wen also went down. He has a large area of ​​land to cultivate, so he didn't plan to go home at noon.

    Before dawn in the morning, he got up and baked a few pancakes. Except for some for breakfast, Gu Wen took a few of them one by one, and left the rest for Xia Yi for lunch.

    The freshly baked pancakes are delicious, but they are cold and hard at noon. Xia Yi thought that Gu Wen had to eat cold cakes all morning and felt uncomfortable, so he planned to make a pot of hot porridge by himself, and then fry a plate of pickles and bacon to Gu Wen.

    "179, how about let's try again?" Xia Yiyue was eager to try and rolled his sleeves into the kitchen.

    "Yes, after the last time, I have downloaded a few farm cooking essays, as well as various tips for making a fire in the earthen stove, and I am fully prepared." The system will not lose the chain at the critical moment.

    Half an hour later, there was a squiggle of smoke from the roof chimney, and bursts of fragrance wafted from the kitchen.

    At noon, Xia Yi happily put a plate of pickles and bacon and a bowl of hot porridge into the food box. After looking at it, it was not beautiful, and he pulled a few pieces of green onions and spread them on the bacon. Carrying the food box and walking up the ridge, saw Gu Wen busy doing it from a distance.

    Gu Wenzhu also saw him and walked over here after dropping his hoe.

    "Taste it quickly and see if it tastes good." Xia Yi opened the food box and handed the chopsticks to Gu Wenzhu. He took Gu Wenzhu's cake and broke it into pieces and soaked it in the hot porridge.

    "It's delicious." Gu Wen gobbled it up, and while eating, he reached out and wiped off the black and gray on the bridge of Xia Yi's nose, "Xiao Yi, how did you learn to cook?"

    "I'll see it a few times." Xia Ye could not tell that he did it under the guidance of 179.

    Gu Wen wiped out the lunch one by one, Xia Yi was greatly encouraged, and developed an unprecedented interest in cooking. After returning home, he plunged into the kitchen and studied various foods.

    At night, when the last dish was being served, the courtyard door was opened, and it was Gu Wen who drove home. He didn't come in after he got home, so he smiled and stood at the door of the kitchen, with his hands behind his back, looking at Xia Yi without saying a word.

    Xia Yi was looked up and down, looking at Gu Wen suspiciously, and suddenly turned behind him, and met a pair of small black pupils.

    In the small bamboo basket that Gu Wen was holding one by one, a fluffy little milk dog was lying on his stomach. Black fur, pink nose, watery eyes looked at Xia Yi nicely.

    Xia Yi yelled in surprise, and quickly took out the puppy and tapped its nose with a finger. The puppy stretched out two small feet to hug the fingers, then licked it with his small tongue, and made two sweet and charming noises. 'S hum.

    Xia Yi's heart was about to melt, and she asked in surprise, "Where did it come from?"

    "The bitch was going to give birth to old Zhang's house. I asked him to choose one for me to keep. Today, the pup is two months old and I will bring it back." Gu Wen also reached out and touched the puppy, but his eyes were watching. Xia Yi.

    Xia Yi quickly scooped up a bowl of potato rice, mashed it, and topped it with gravy, and brought it to the puppy. The puppy stuck out his nose and sniffed it, and then ate it.

    "Eat slowly, it's all yours." Xia Yi squatted to watch the puppy eating, and her heart was full of joy. In his previous life, he wanted to raise a puppy of his own, but he was always afraid that he could not raise it and let the puppy suffer along with it. , Now that Gu Wen raises one by one, he can finally get what he wants.

    "Brother Zhu, can you name the puppy?"

    "Heizi?" After frowning and contemplating for a while, Gu Wen said the name earnestly.

    "Be majestic."

    "Big Black?" Gu Wenzheng thought hard again.

    "Several dogs in the village called Big Black. When he called Big Black to go home for dinner, Big Black didn't know who was calling."

    "Black skin?" Gu Wen looked at Xia Yi unconfidently.

    .......Why do you have to add black letters, what are your obsessions?

    In the end, Xia Yi gave the puppy a name, Qilin.

    "It's just a local dog called a unicorn, and it will be laughed at by the people in the village." Gu Wen stared at the little dog who was eating, thinking about it, then he thought, "Follow him, Xiao also likes it, and the unicorn is the unicorn. "

    "Kirin, kylin, do you know if you will be called kirin in the future." Xia Yi said while holding the puppy, and the puppy grunted twice in response.

    Qilin ate his food, sniffed everywhere in the room, walked under the cupboard and smelled it. He tilted his hind legs and wanted to pee. Gu Wen grabbed them one by one and carried them out.

    In the hall at night, the candles were bright, and Gu Wen sat in a pile of bamboo sticks weaving bamboo baskets. He flipped his fingers flexibly, and the bamboo strips slowly formed a round frame in his hand.

    The unicorn burrowed excitedly in the pile of bamboo sticks on the ground, gnawing and planing. Xia Yi sat watching Gu Wen weaving bamboo baskets one by one, and from time to time he stretched out his hand to play up the unicorn.

    I don't know when, he began to stare at Gu Wenzhu's side face in a daze.

    Gu Wenzhu's face is well-defined, resolute and steady, his nose is high and erect, and his sword eyebrows are inserted diagonally into his temples. He is very handsome.

    Suddenly, Xia Yi's heart moved and went to the kitchen stove to find a few pieces of black charcoal. Seeing that Gu Wenzhu hadn't noticed him, he drew on the floor following Gu Wenzhu's silhouette. He is a small famous painter in the original world. With a few sketches, a handsome man in costume jumped out of the charcoal brush.

    Add eyes... Brother Zhu has deep eye sockets and thick eyelashes... His eyes are very gentle...

    Also draw his eyebrow peak...high eyebrow peak....

    Draw the lips again... Brother Zhu's lips are so thin... The lip shape is so sexy...

    "Host, I measured your heartbeat faster and faster." 179 suddenly said, Xia Yi's charcoal pencil almost let go.

    "Because I haven't painted for a long time, my heart is surging for a while, and my love is hard for me." Xia Yi replied calmly.

    "Host, why is your face so red."

    "It's just too excited. I said why your system is so much nonsense. If you have nothing to do, go to the riverside to scan and play, don't interrupt here." Xia Yi became a little embarrassed and angry.

    "I won't scan those people at all. Am I such a boring system? I will concentrate on guarding you." When I mentioned this, I felt a little emotional and couldn't control myself, and the processor heat directly soared.

    "That's right, it's night, and no one is by the river." Xia Yi said coldly without giving him any face.

    Gu Wen found out that Xia Yi had been smearing the ground for a long time. He usually talked endlessly with one mouth, and there was no sound tonight, so he put down the bamboo basket in his hand, got up and looked down.

    Taking a closer look, Xia Yi is painting with charcoal.

    In the painting, a tall man is weaving a bamboo basket. The man is drawn very delicately, his facial features are lifelike, and even the hair hanging from his cheeks is rooted out. There is a pile of bamboo sticks beside him, and a little black dog rolls in the bamboo sticks with his tongue out, charming and lovely.

    This is clearly the painted self.

    Gu Wenzhu’s face began to have a fever, his heart throbbed, and his fingers curled up unconsciously, and his Adam’s apple rolled up and down. Gu Wen said step by step: "The painting is really good." His voice was dry, and he cleared his throat before adding. In one sentence, "Xiao Yi, you paint really well."

    When Xia Yi heard Gu Wenzhu's words, she didn't understand why she didn't dare to look up at him, but she lowered her head and whispered "Yes", unconsciously picking up the charcoal pen in her hand.

    The two were silent for a while, and Gu Wen gently raised his hand, split his curled fingers, took out the charcoal pencil and placed it on the ground, and then repeatedly wiped the black dirt on the palm of his hand with a wet wipe.

    The two of them didn't speak, and the air seemed to be sticky. Xia Yi just watched Gu Wen rubbing his palms one by one, making her heart numb.

    "Ooo, oooo" Qilin's two hums broke the silence in the room, and Xia Yi suddenly returned to his senses. He retracted his hand, muffled and said "I'm going to sleep" and hurried to the bedroom. .

    In the darkness, Xia Yi lay on the bed, staring at the top of the bed blankly, and his mind was chaotic.

    "Host, you are a bit weird tonight." 179's voice implies temptation.

    "I was thinking that the unicorn painting was not done well." Xia Yi answered quickly.

    It's really weird, otherwise, why don't you want to tell 179 that you are troubled by the inexplicable reaction just now?

    Xia Yi, Xia Yi, you must not treat yourself as a woman just because this is a perverted world and you are a brother.

    Remember, you are a true man with strong bones.

    Forget it, don't want to go to sleep.
