Vicious cannon fodder is prohibited for beauties to play

Chapter 263 He is the cannon fodder control group (19)

For dinner, we made stewed radish with pork ribs, braised pork with the fresh meat we bought, and stir-fried Chinese cabbage given by Aunt Zhao. It was paired with the sauerkraut that Aunt Zhao had given us earlier to help relieve the greasiness. It was a very hearty meal for two people.

What's more, Gu Yao specially used all the white rice to steam the dry rice, which was very fragrant.

Gu Yao's cooking skills improved day by day. Si Cen couldn't help but finish two bowls of rice. Not only did he drink the bone soup, he also ate a lot of stewed radishes and even a few pieces of braised pork. There is still a long way to go in the battle of losing weight!

Da Zhuang lay by the door, holding a big bone in his mouth and chewing it with satisfaction.

It was getting dark, and after Gu Yao washed the dishes, he cleaned the big pot and boiled hot water for washing up later.

Thinking that winter is approaching, the family still needs to heat the kang this winter, which consumes more firewood, so he has to prepare more firewood. He has been chopping wood whenever he has time these days.

I can still see now, so I'm ready to chop some firewood.

But I saw the young man standing in the open space in front of the house, lifting his legs and twisting his waist, doing some slightly strange movements, with a red face.

Da Zhuang walked around him, sniffing here and there, then seemed to lose interest and walked back to the doorstep, lying down and continuing to gnaw on his big bone.

"doing what?"

Gu Yao couldn't help but ask.

The young man frowned, "Today's calorie intake has greatly exceeded the limit, I need to do some exercise, I'm warming up~"

Gu Yao didn't understand what calories meant, but thinking that although the boy was weak, he couldn't sit still all day, it would be good for him to exercise, he said "Okay" and took the axe to work in the open space next to the axe where firewood was usually piled and chopped.

Si Cen was warming up absentmindedly, his eyes glancing over unconsciously.

It is said that men are particularly handsome and charming when they are working hard.

Si Cen now admits that there is some truth in this statement.

Especially since his son Tutu is doing physical work now, his hormones are overflowing.

Si Cen was thinking distractedly, if this happened in the summer, wouldn't the scene of Tu Tu taking off his shirt and chopping wood with his bare chest be even more exciting?

Oh my, who is dating this guy with such a great body and such great pectoral muscles?

What? It turned out to be Cen Cen herself~

That's fine~~

Gu Yao was indeed working seriously, but with his sharp senses, he soon noticed the burning gaze falling on him.

He had a deep understanding of his little brother's sometimes shy but sometimes extremely bold and straightforward personality, so at first he just pretended that he didn't notice anything, hoping that the little brother would just look at it out of curiosity for a while and then stop looking.

As a result... it seemed to be endless, and it made Gu Yao gradually lose his composure, and his movements became a little stiff.

Until he could no longer bear it, Gu Yao turned his head and suddenly met the young man's eyes that were full of passion and inexplicable admiration.

His Adam's apple rolled unbearably, "Not exercising anymore?"

Si Cen let out an "Ah?" and it was obvious that his mind was elsewhere and he didn't really listen to what Gu Yao said. His eyes also wandered dishonestly up and down Gu Yao's body.

"Hmm? What did you say, Brother Yao?"

Gu Yao: "...I said hurry up and wash up and go inside, it's getting dark."

And it's getting even colder. The boy looked sweaty after moving around for a while. If the cold wind blows, he will catch a cold and it will be terrible.

Gu Yao still remembered what the old doctor said, that he couldn't catch a cold again.

What Gu Yao was concerned about was not that his brother had fallen into the river and had become ill and had difficulty conceiving, but that it had injured his body, and catching a cold would only make the situation worse, as he had just recovered from his illness.

Thinking of this, he didn't want to waste any more time. Seeing that the boy was still absent-minded, Gu Yao simply dropped the axe, came over to urge the boy to go into the house, and went to the kitchen to get water for him to wash.

When Gu Yao brought in a newly bought wooden basin with water for him to wash his face, Si Cen remembered that he had forgotten to buy a toothbrush. Of course, he didn't know if there was a toothbrush here at this time, so he hurriedly asked Gu Yao.

Gu Yao looked confused, "Toothbrush? What is that?"

Well, as soon as I heard this, I knew that there probably wasn’t any.

Si Cen was a little disappointed, but he was prepared, so he described it, "It's like that, with a handle about this long, you can hold it, and there are soft bristles on the other end, you can use it to brush, uh, clean your teeth."

Gu Yao listened thoughtfully, "From the description, it seems to have the same effect as willow branches."

The willow twigs used to clean teeth are split open at one end to make them look like a small brush, and are usually used with a powder that looks a bit like salt.

But it’s not very useful and Si Cen is not used to it.

"It's much better than a willow stick, and it can clean things very well. Oh, why don't you have it? Forget it..."

Seeing the young man looking depressed, Gu Yao felt uncomfortable.

After a pause, he said, "You can try to make it. You can use wood or bamboo for the handle, and then find a way to fix the soft hair you mentioned at one end. But does Mange know what kind of hair is used for the soft hair?"

Si Cen paused, frowned, and said uncertainly after a long while, "Pig...hair? Or horsehair or something like that? It can't be too hard, but it can't be too soft either. But will it have a smell?"

As he spoke, he became discouraged and his shoulders slumped. "Forget it, forget it. It seems to be very troublesome. I'd better continue to use the willow branches."

He had never studied this aspect. How could a devil like him have expected that one day he would be stumped by a toothbrush?

Gu Yao looked at the dejected boy, pursed his lips and finally did not continue the topic, "Hurry up and take a shower. You walked a lot today. Soak your feet before going to bed."

……

The next day, Si Cen slept until noon again. After waking up, he got off the kang, stepped on the new cotton shoes placed there, and ran out to find Gu Yao. He saw him sitting on a small stool in front of the house, with his head down, fiddling with something.

Si Cen tiptoed towards him, determined to scare him.

Gu Yao looked at the shadow peeking out from the ground in front of him and suppressed the urge to smile.

"Hey!!"

He felt a heavy sensation on his back, and the little boy pounced on him and lay on his back, deliberately making noises in his ears, just waiting to see him jump up in fright.

As a result, not only did Gu Yao not move at all, he was even able to calmly protect his side with his backhand, as if he was afraid that he would fall.

Boring, not scared at all.

Si Cen leaned over his shoulder and stretched his neck to look, mumbling, "You are doing... huh? Toothbrush?!!!"

Si Cen could clearly see what Gu Yao was fiddling with in his hand.

The handle is made of wood, with a small bunch of soft bristles wrapped with thread at one end. It looks a lot like a willow branch used for brushing teeth, and the bristles are arranged like a small brush.

Si Cen reached out and grabbed the "toothbrush" and looked at it for a few seconds. He heard Gu Yao's somewhat nervous voice, "Is it like this?"

Si Cen: "Well, the soft hair is like this, not horizontally, but standing up like this, in rows..."

He simply dropped his two hands from the sides of Gu Yao's neck, and gestured with the "toothbrush" to show Gu Yao.

This posture was too intimate. Not only was it similar to hugging Gu Yao, but the boy's cheek was also very close in order to talk. His breath fell on Gu Yao's ears and neck, making him feel as if those places were gradually getting hot.
