Although they talked about the bad things in the past, but after they stopped talking about it, the meal was still very happy.

The autumn wind rolled up the yellow and green leaves on the ground, and the sun was still quite strong at noon. In the large fence outside the courtyard, the fluffy chickens and ducklings screamed from time to time, pecking the grass and chasing insects.

Lu Gu released them today, and picked peppers outside the courtyard with a bamboo basket.

He was afraid that the ducks would swim along the river when he couldn't see them, so he didn't put them in the pond. Anyway, the ducks also ate the leaves and the caterpillar, so they were locked in the fence with the chickens.

Autumn peppercorns were turning red, bright red peppers were numb, and they should be picked within two days, otherwise the peppers would be dried and cracked by the sun, and it would be difficult to pick up when they fell to the ground, and it would be worthless if to sell.

Bunches of bright red peppercorns were picked off and thrown into the nearly full bamboo basket at his feet. His hands were black and dirty after picking them all morning, and there was a smell of numbness. Be careful, or it would hurt if you got pricked by it.

Lu Gu seldom asked what he got, so he had to ask Lu Gu.

He wasn't annoyed if Lu Gu didn't ask him, he was a timid character, and every time he took something out of the bamboo basket, Lu Gu would squat beside him, watched and listened carefully.

As soon as he heard that rice wine needed to be cooked, Shen Xuanqing said: "Then you cook it first, and I'll pick the rest and carry it back."

In this case, Lu Gu obeyed and went back first, and saw Shen Xuanqing's big basket at the gate of the courtyard, He wanted to carry it by hand, but he didn't move after a while, it was so heavy that he had to give up.

When the sky darkened, Lu Gu cooked the rice wine and put the food on the table. He was about to go out to call Shen Xuanqing for dinner when he saw him coming back with the peppercorns and bamboo baskets while driving the chickens and ducks.
