Chapter 41: The Ugly Ger’s Farming Story

“What’s wrong with you?” Uncle Xie had long noticed Xie Ama’s continuous glances towards Li Changfeng. Any man would immediately notice when their loved one is looking at another man! Xie Ama looked at Uncle Xie, who was sweating from working, opened his mouth, but then thought about how this matter was still a secret. It would be too…

Uncle Xie looked at Xie Ama’s hesitant appearance and felt extremely anxious. “What’s wrong? There’s nothing you can’t say. We’re all family.”

Xie Ama turned his head, avoiding Uncle Xie’s inquiring gaze. “It’s nothing, just focus on your work.” This statement made Uncle Xie annoyed. “Why pay attention to them? When I was young, I could take them down easily!”

After hearing this, Xie Ama held his breath and didn’t want to deal with this stubborn idiot in front of his!

“Ama, who is that person in the Xie family’s field?” In the field of the Xia family (village head’s family), a young and handsome boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old poured tea for his own Ama while whispering softly.

Xia Ama tilted his head and glanced at Li Changfeng a few times. “He’s a man from the Xu family in the mountains.” Xia Yu pouted; of course, he knew who Li Changfeng was. He wanted to ask about the person not far from Li Changfeng! He had never seen this person in the village.

“Xia Yu is talking about the person standing next to Li Changfeng. Speaking of which, I haven’t seen this person before!” Xia Feng, the one-year-older brother of Xia Yu, directly blurted out who his younger brother was referring to, earning a resentful glare from Xia Yu for being too talkative!

Village head, Uncle Xia, who was resting at the moment, took a puff of his cigarette and looked through the smoke towards the Xie family’s land. “Oh, that’s someone from the Lin family in town, but why is he here?”

As soon as Xia Yu heard it was the Lin family, he immediately thought of who his father was talking about. “Is it the Lin family from the pharmacy?” Xia Ama’s health hadn’t been good these past few years, and they always got medicine from Old Doctor Lin, so they were somewhat familiar.

Seeing his father nodding, Xia Feng became confused. “But if there are so many people, why haven’t I seen Old Doctor Lin’s son?” Village head’s family paid money to avoid military service, so Xia Feng didn’t go to the barracks.

Xia Ama poked Xia Feng’s head with his hand. “Why should I have to tell you everything about other people’s families? After resting, go do some work. You study all day long. It’s good to stretch your muscles and bones now!” Xia Feng was studying in town, but during this farming season, considering the busyness of the rural household, the academy gave him a few days off, and Xia Feng came back to help.

Although Village head’s family managed to get by, sending one of their sons to study in town cost money, and another son was in the process of getting married. They were also busy with agricultural matters on a daily basis.

After being scolded by his own Ama, Xia Feng happened to catch sight of Xia Yu’s mocking gaze. “Don’t laugh at me. Didn’t you ask the same question?” Xia Yu’s face immediately turned red, and he snatched the bowl of tea from Xia Feng’s hand. “Finish drinking and then get to work! You talk too much!”

After packing up, Xia Yu intentionally took a road not far from Uncle Xie’s land to go home. As he was about to pass by the field, he couldn’t help but secretly glance again at Lin Fangliang, who was working hard. At that moment, Lin Fangliang happened to hear Uncle Xie telling them to take a break, so he wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled at Uncle Xie, who happened to be standing in their field above. From Xia Yu’s perspective, it seemed like Lin Fangliang was specifically smiling at him.

“Oh my God! What am I thinking!” Holding his now flushed cheeks, Xia Yu quickly picked up the basket and left.

Meanwhile, on Xu Qing’s side, he had already finished making a pair of “straw shoes.” With the completion of the shoes, Xu Qing’s mood also improved, and Brother Xie felt relieved as well. “You did a great job for your first time. From now on, follow the methods I taught you to make them. If there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to come to me.”

Xu Qing held the straw shoes he had painstakingly made and nodded vigorously. This was his first time making shoes, and it was worth commemorating! “Brother Xie, today I’ll cook a new dish for you to taste!”

Brother Xie immediately thought of the pickled vegetables and fish that Xu Qing made, and couldn’t help but praise, “You’re amazing. You come up with all these recipes. What do you want to make this time? Do you need anything?”

Xu Qing pursed his lips and pointed to the bucket that Xie Ama had placed at the gate of the courtyard. Brother Xie took a look and asked, “Fish?”

“Yes, I want to make braised fish!”

Brother Xie watched as Xu Qing skillfully descaled and cleaned a spiky fish, then made identical cuts on the head and tail of the fish. After removing the fishy line, Xu Qing used his fingernail to pull it out, enhancing the taste of the fish.

“What are you doing?” Brother Xie watched as Xu Qing directly made cuts on the entire fish, with the same number of cuts on both sides. “This helps the fish absorb the flavors better. Do you have any wine at home?” Wine can remove the fishy smell. Brother Xie nodded and brought out Uncle Xie’s wine, handing it to Xu Qing. Xu Qing rubbed some salt and wine on the fish and set it aside. “It needs to marinate for a while to enhance the flavor!”

Brother Xie truly felt enlightened. He didn’t realize fish could be prepared this way. Since the fish needed to marinate, Xu Qing and Brother Xie took the opportunity to prepare the other dishes, so they could be cooked directly later.

To prevent the fish from getting cold, Xu Qing made the fish last. By now, it was getting dark outside, and it was time for Uncle Xie and the others to return.

“Don’t let the fire be too high, or it will burn,” Xu Qing instructed Brother Xie. He poured oil into the pot and waited for it to heat up before placing the fish in. He asked Brother Xie to step back and reduce the fire to a low flame. He fried the fish until both sides turned golden brown and then transferred it to a bowl. Due to the limited conditions, Xu Qing sprinkled the seasonings directly on top of the fish and served it on the table.

“This time Brother Qing’s fish smells a bit different?” Sure enough, as soon as the dish was served, Uncle Xie’s loud voice came from the courtyard. Brother Xie took the hot water outside, and when Lin Fangliang saw that he hadn’t fully recovered, he immediately stepped forward to take it. “You’re not fully recovered yet! Let me do it! Let me!”

Brother Xie looked at the water bucket that Lin Fangliang had taken away and felt somewhat helpless. “It’s not heavy, and besides, you’re a guest. How can you do these things?”

“Guest? I’m not a guest. I’m a junior here to help! Come on, Uncle Xie, Xie Ama, I’ll fetch water for you to wash your hands!” Lin Fangliang directly brought the water to Uncle Xie and the others, being quite attentive, which made Li Changfeng roll his eyes.

In the evening, the braised fish made by Xu Qing received high praise. After dinner, Xu Qing and Li Changfeng went home first, while Lin Fangliang, who seemed to have hit it off with Uncle Xie, continued chatting with him non-stop.

Translated on ho lo lo novels dot com.

After Li Changfeng prepared the hot water for Xu Qing, he held the pair of “grass shoes” that Xu Qing made for him, playing with them affectionately. It was Xu Qing’s first time making shoes, and they were made for him! This immediately swept away Li Changfeng’s slightly depressed mood when Xu Qing had called Lin Fangliang “smashing”!

“What are you doing?!”

As soon as Xu Qing entered the room after taking a shower, he saw Li Changfeng struggling to squeeze his feet into the pair of “grass shoes” he made in the afternoon. “Don’t wear them! I made them too small!” Xu Qing hurriedly stepped forward to stop Li Changfeng, who wanted to give it a try. Seeing his slightly reddened feet, Xu Qing felt a bit guilty. Clearly, he made them in Li Changfeng’s size, so why couldn’t he put them on…

Seeing Xu Qing’s urgency, Li Changfeng had to stop, but he still put the shoes away and kept them properly. This was the first pair of shoes Xu Qing made for him.

“Wife…”

Li Changfeng’s suggestive voice reached Xu Qing’s ears. Xu Qing pushed him away, realizing that the person hugging him remained motionless. Helplessly, Xu Qing said, “After doing so much work today, aren’t you tired?”

Li Changfeng instantly brightened his eyes. “Tired or not, why don’t you try it and find out?”

Unable to bear it, Xu Qing grabbed the soft flesh around Li Changfeng’s waist with his hand and pinched it hard. He heard a suppressed and strange sound from Li Changfeng, which surprised Xu Qing. This made Xu Qing pause and experiment further. Could it be that Li Changfeng had a penchant for being submissive?

“Darling…” Li Changfeng couldn’t hold back anymore. He grabbed Xu Qing’s hand, which was ready for another round, and placed him directly on the bed.

As their eager lips made contact, both of them felt a strong tremor deep within their hearts. Perhaps it had been a few days since they last indulged in this way. The sensation made Xu Qing also feel a bit eager.

Hands tightly entwined around Li Changfeng’s neck, Xu Qing passionately responded to him, driving Li Changfeng even more crazy.

Although Xu Qing’s kisses were slightly clumsy, they completely overwhelmed Li Changfeng, who launched a direct counterattack, full of aggression. Large hands cupped Xu Qing’s face, and a long tongue entered Xu Qing’s mouth, playfully exploring the space he had opened.

“Cold…”

Feeling the absence of any obstructions on his body, Xu Qing instinctively wrapped his arms around the man in front of him. Li Changfeng’s scorching body gradually made Xu Qing lose self-awareness, and he only wanted to indulge himself wholeheartedly with this man.

“Be good… It will get hot soon…” Li Changfeng hoarsely spoke suggestive words, pulling apart Xu Qing’s arms that were embracing him and suppressing them on either side of Xu Qing’s head.

Once again, their lips met, their tongues playfully intertwining. One large hand supported Xu Qing’s slender waist, while the other vigorously fondled the two points on Xu Qing’s chest, teasing relentlessly.

Li Changfeng released Xu Qing’s slightly breathless lips and lightly bit his earlobe, then slowly moved downwards, kissing his neck, shoulders, and collarbone. Xu Qing couldn’t help but let out soft moans. When Li Changfeng felt that Xu Qing could handle him, he forcefully pierced Xu Qing’s body with the well-prepared member, causing both of them to let out a satisfied gasp simultaneously.

Xu Qing felt like he was going insane. Li Changfeng on top of him was like a wild horse running rampant, only knowing how to gallop quickly. The intense pleasure overwhelmed his rationality. He could only follow the man’s madness, climaxing time and time again, and then continuing to immerse themselves in an endless wave of pleasure.

  6. Yanyan!
    Stop worrying about us. If you want to play RL, just do so. Then come back and feed us dogfood xD
    On a side note.. I do have two questions.
    1. Xia Ama, the wife of Li Zheng … that’s not the same Xia Ama who played matchmaker for Chen Hong, correct?
    2. Are you planning on unifying those names? (Example: Xie Yu, Brother Xie, Xie Ge’er = same person)

    1. Hello Kitten, thank you for your comment and kind words ☺️

      To answer your questions though, 1) I don’t think it’s the same person. I don’t really know coz I only read and translate at the same time so, I’m at where the readers are lol and 2) I think I wrote translator note so etb were that Ge’er means brother. If the readers are confused, I could add another note in later 😅

      1. errr…
        Well, thinking about it, they should be two different people, just with the same surname. Otherwise, author-sama should have mentioned it.

        Reading my comment and your answer and thinking back to the starting chapters, let me re-phrase the second question.
        And no, I’m not trying to get you to do more work, I’m just curious, so don’t even think about feeling any pressure of sorts, otherwise I’ll have to think of a suitable punishment, like for example: No cookies for half an hour!

        *grabs my mind back which is already running off-topic and tries to remember what I wanted to say*
        Ah, yes, unifying terms. I have to say, my question was a bit wrong with the example.
        Just at the very beginning, you used the terms “Aunt” and replaced them after some chapters with “Ama”, which you explained at that point.
        So my question would be, are you planning to go over those early chapters some time in the (far) future to unify it?
        Or, if I may be so bold to ask if you are perhaps planning to re-upload those chapters where you have been experimenting with the font.
        Since as a reader, although there isn’t anything to nitpick about, just that it doesn’t look so appealing if the font suddenly changes so much from one chapter to another. (yes, that’s just for appearance, so it’s not necessary, I’m just a death-seeking curious kitten => curiousity kills the kitten)

        If the answer in both cases is no, then it’s also okay. So long as you take care of your health, everything is fine!

      2. Hi Kitten, I know what you mean with the image file chapters. They sure are pretty ugly. Maybe in the future when I’m not bombarded with school, I’d go back fix those. Right now, I’m barely hanging on to translating one chapter each of the ugly ger and culinary tycoon so I can update every other day.
        I’m also helping another translator with proofreading. Wish I could only focus on translating work and have enough money to eat lol .. that’d be a beautiful world 🥲

      3. Yanyan, this sounds like we have to find you a rich CEO, huh?
        No rush, take it slow. Your readers won’t run away and the chapters also won’t run away. We will all obediently stay put and wait for you to have time to feed us 😀

      4. Lol too bad the real people don’t look like the anime drawings. I wish I could transmigrate hehe

      5. take this kitten with you! I’ll become the most adorable pet-kitten O_O

  7. Thanks for the chapter! Take care of yourself! I don’t know how the weather is wherever you live, but don’t forget to take the time for a walk, take a book/reader with you & read in the sun/under a tree. It recharges batteries.

  8. Andra says:

    Thank you for the chapter.

  9. “Sir do you still want this?” The gentleman…. <– YanYan? this sentence which obviously doesn't belong to our "ugly" ger, seems to have sneaked into the chapter.. We need to improve the security 😮

  10. Kaia says:

    Still care, even two years later. I’m rereading cos I forgot some of the story and I just like your translations. Hope you are happy and healthy now and always.

    1. Thingyan says:

      Aww thank you so much Kaia. Readers like you make it worth the time and effort 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
