Although the wine seems a little imperfect, it will not ruin a table of good food. Meat is a good thing. These days, if ten fingers are not enough to count the number of days that meat can be eaten in a year, adding ten fingers will definitely be enough.
Although you can often eat game in Xianjiqiao, there is still a difference between game and pork, especially in this era. No one thinks game is more delicious than pork.
Chang Xing often eats meat, and he also thinks that pork is more fragrant and delicate. The legendary bear paws just taste thicker than goose paws, but the taste is actually the same.
After eating, Chang Xing left the farm with Zhou Maolin and others.
Wu Wanyi and Chen Wanhong chased them out.
"Chang Xing, are you coming to Xianjiqiao to take classes? I'm so good at math, physics and chemistry and I'm not afraid of traveling all over China. We specialize in improving classes for people who have gone to junior high school in Xianjiqiao. It's very interesting. Are you coming?" Chen Wan
Hong said.
Wu Wanyi also said: "Chang Xing, there is nothing to do now anyway, so if you are idle, you will be idle. Why not learn more."
Zhou Maolin got ahead of Chang Xing and said, "I agreed to this on Chang Xing's behalf. It's not easy for a young man to have a chance to study. Anyway, you have nothing to do in the mountains. Have you got the seedlings ready?"
Chang Xing nodded: "It's done. It has grown very long. It will be earlier than you planted the seedlings."
"So early? Aren't you afraid that the seedlings will freeze to death?" Zhou Maolin knew that he was talking nonsense as soon as he spoke. The seedlings in Xianji Bridge were all frozen to death, and the seedlings in Changxing were not frozen to death. They have been eating Changxing every day these days.
What about the fruits and vegetables sent down the mountain? The seeds of the peppers in Xianjiqiao have not yet been planted in the ground, but the peppers in Changxing have already begun to be eaten. Beans, loofah, etc., seem to have never been cut off.
Chang Xing smiled.
"Hey, Chang Xing, how are you?" Chen Wanhong asked.
"Didn't Uncle Maolin agree for me? Then I'll do it." Chang Xing said with a smile.
"That's great." Chen Wanhong said happily.
Wu Wanyi also had a smile on her face.
"Chang Xing, you have class tonight, don't forget it," Chen Wanhong reminded.
When Chang Xing went to class in the evening, Xiao Hongxia, Zhang Xilai and others were there. Seeing Chang Xing arrive, Xiao Hongxia was a little surprised.
"Brother Chang Xing, why are you here?" Xiao Hongxia moved to the side to make room for a seat.
Chang Xing sat down next to Xiao Hongxia: "Are you still coming to class during the holiday?"
"I can't learn much in school. It's not as good as Teacher Wu and the others who teach me a lot." Xiao Hongxia said.
"Have you finished the performance?" Chang Xing asked again.
Speaking of the performance, Xiao Hongxia's expression became brighter: "Not yet. Last time it was a county-wide performance. If I choose it, I have to go to Qingshui."
"How was your performance?" Chang Xing asked.
"It's okay. There's just one character who fell down accidentally. Everything else is okay. But it's hard to say whether I can be selected." Xiao Hongxia was a little worried.
"Don't worry, you will definitely be chosen," Chang Xing said.
Wu Wanyi walked in, saw Chang Xing sitting in the classroom, and smiled at Chang Xing.
Xiao Hongxia was unhappy: "Brother Chang Xing, Teacher Wu asked you to come to class, so you came here, right?"
"No. Uncle Maolin called me here, saying that I have nothing to do now, and there is no harm in learning some culture." Chang Xing said.
"Well, studying culture definitely has only advantages and no disadvantages. Didn't you say that I can go to the city to study in the future? You should also study hard, and maybe we will go to the city together in the future." Xiao Hongxia said.
"Why should I go? As a Taoist, I should stay on the mountain." Chang Xing said.
"Wrong, Teacher Wu said, small hermits hide in the wild, medium hermits hide in the city, and great hermits hide in the court. The more you want to practice Taoism, the more you have to go to a big city, right?" Xiao Hongxia said.
"Is there such a thing?" Chang Xing scratched his head. He had never heard of it. There was no mention of this in the scriptures he copied!
Although he had left school for a while, Chang Xing felt that he could still keep up with what Wu Wanyi was talking about. He didn't know that in order to take care of him, Wu Wanyi had specially adjusted the content and made it much more detailed.
Wu Wanyi was preparing to take the college entrance examination, and her grades were good. However, her family background was not good, so she was early included in the list of people who wanted to go to the mountains and countryside.
Chang Xing listened carefully, but Xiao Hongxia looked at Chang Xing from time to time, wondering what he was thinking about writing.
When get out of class was over, Wu Wanyi came over and asked Chang Xing: "Comrade Chang Xing, you haven't studied for a long time. How are you? Can you keep up?"
"It's okay. It seems that they haven't been returned to the teacher yet." Chang Xing said with a smile.
Wu Wanyi handed several books in her hand to Chang Xing: "These books are the high school textbooks I used before. Take them back and read them carefully. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me at any time. You usually have nothing to do.
Go down the mountain for a walk more often. Humans are social, and this is the most fundamental difference between humans and other animals. If you stay alone in the mountains for a long time, it is not conducive to your physical and mental development."
"Okay, thank you, Teacher Wu." Chang Xing took the books from Wu Wanyi.
When she walked over from Wu Wanyi, Xiao Hongxia had already grabbed Chang Xing's clothes corner with her hand and stared at Wu Wanyi with wary eyes, as if she was afraid that Wu Wanyi would snatch her brother Chang Xing away from her.
Wu Wanyi handed the textbook to Chang Xing and walked away.
Xiao Hongxia immediately interrogated and asked: "Brother Chang Xing, why is this woman so nice to you?"
"Mr. Wu is a very nice person, isn't he very kind to everyone?" Chang Xing smiled.
"What's the matter? She just smiles at you and only gives you a textbook. Others don't get this treatment." Xiao Hongxia said dissatisfied.
"Maybe it's because I saved her before." Chang Xing said helplessly.
"Brother Chang Xing, will she give her life for saving her life?" Xiao Hongxia has heard many such stories. The male protagonist steps forward in critical moments, and the heroine usually ends up because of the hero's heroic prowess.
Committed to each other.
Chang Xing chuckled: "How could it be? She is from the city, how could she marry someone from our country? When you go to school in the city in the future, you will look down on our Xianjiqiao kid."
"I don't know how." Xiao Hongxia said quickly.
The Youth Farm where Wu Wanyi and Chen Wanhong returned together.
"Sister Wanyi, that Xiao Hongxia seems to have an unusual relationship with Chang Xing." Chen Wanhong said.
Wu Wanyi smiled and said: "They grew up together. They are just like brothers and sisters, but of course they are different."
"I mean, Xiao Hongxia seems to be very dependent on Chang Xing. She doesn't necessarily regard Chang Xing as her brother. I heard that they once arranged a baby kiss." Chen Wanhong was in a low mood.
"Wan Hong, what are you thinking about?" Wu Wanyi said with a smile.
"No, it's nothing." Chen Wanhong was a little flustered.
"Wan Hong, please remember what my sister said. Although we are now at Xianji Bridge, we will still have to go back one day. Xianji Bridge does not belong to us, and the Youth Farm is just a station in our lives. Some
You must be cautious about things. Don't use your emotions. If the time comes, you will hurt others and yourself. You are different from me. You have a good family background, so you will definitely have a better chance of returning to the city than me." Wu Wanyi warned.
road.
Wu Wanyi's words made Chen Wanhong fall into silence. After a while, Chen Wanhong said quietly: "Sister Wanyi, if we leave here in the future, will we be reluctant to leave?"
"I don't know either, you will know when the time comes." Wu Wanyi said.
"Actually, it's good to stay here. It's quiet here and the people are simple." Chen Wanhong said.
Wu Wanyi nodded: "Yes. When we first came here, we still looked down upon the farmers in Xianji Bridge, but now I feel that they live a more real life than many people in the city."
Chang Xing sent Xiao Hongxia home and went up the mountain alone.
It was not bad to attend night school, and Chang Xing returned to the same regular life as when he was in school.
Lao Mao, Da Huang, and Da Hei make trouble every day, almost turning the entire Fengmei Village over.
The fragrant deer is not very honest now. As soon as spring comes, the male fragrant deer becomes anxious and runs outside every day. The shooting did not seem to leave much shadow on it. Chang Xing has
Once, I discovered that the male fragrant deer actually brought a female fragrant deer into the shack. Don't you want to lay a fragrant deer cub here someday?
Later, Chang Xing discovered that the fragrant deer he raised was quite carefree. The female fragrant deer he brought back seemed to be different every time. Others would definitely not be able to tell because the female fragrant deer seemed to look the same. But Chang Xing
But he can easily distinguish the subtle differences of each female fragrant deer. Although he is a little shameless about the fragrant deer, Chang Xing is too lazy to care about it. In fact, this fragrant deer is nominally raised by him, but in fact Chang Xing has never
No matter how you manage it, you just give it a place to shelter from the wind and rain. This fragrant deer has to go out to find food on its own every day.
Although Zhou Maolin didn't really believe in Zhao Jianguo's grand blueprint, he was still very concerned about the gardening farm. Taking advantage of the opportunity to go to the commune for a meeting, Zhou Maolin asked the comrades at the Agricultural Technology Station. From the technology of the Agricultural Technology Station
The staff learned that there are indeed many brigades building horticulture farms and building large tea farms. If Xianjiqiao plans to build tea farms, the Agricultural Technology Station can provide technical guidance and help Xianjiqiao obtain seeds.
This time, Zhou Maolin made the decision without any hesitation. There are many Xianji Bridges in the barren mountains, so just open one up. Young people in the city have gone to Xianji Bridge to start farms. Why can’t the people of Xianji Bridge do it themselves?
Establish a gardening garden? People in Xianjiqiao have plenty of strength, so why can’t they start some industry and live a good life? For Zhou Maolin, his idea is very simple, which is to lead the members of the Xianjiqiao brigade to live a good life.
Zhou Maolin ordered tea tree seeds from the Agricultural Technology Station, then returned to Xianji Bridge happily, and immediately summoned the brigade cadres and the captains of each production team.
"We, Xianji Bridge, are going to build a garden garden, reclaim a few barren hills opposite the door, and plant them all with tea trees. In the future, everyone in Xianji Bridge will have shares, and they can get dividends every year. If we make money from tea, we, Xianji Bridge, will get more and more money."
The richer we are. With money, we can also do more side businesses." Zhou Maolin said.
"Secretary Maolin, do whatever you say, and we will follow you," Xiao Yinshun said loudly.
"Yinshun, don't be too busy expressing your position. I called everyone here because I want everyone to express their opinions and see if they have any different ideas." Zhou Maolin said.
"I think it worked. I also tasted Xiao Zhao's tea that day, and it actually didn't taste that good, but people in the city are very curious about it. Such a small jar of tea costs several yuan. Let's build two barren mountains and have to go out.
How many cans of tea?" Zhang Fangqing said.
"The tea we grow may not be able to sell for such a high price," Zhou Maolin said.
"But even if it costs just a few cents per pound, it can still make a lot of money, right? Others can grow good tea, why can't we? It all depends on man-made efforts. I think this can be done," Zhang Fangqing said.
The rest of the people didn't have any opinions. It was a public matter anyway and they didn't care much about it. Since Zhou Maolin said he wanted to do it, they just followed it. What if they can really get dividends in the future? Therefore, the leadership team of Xianji Bridge
Xian Jiqiao's career was decided so smoothly.
Next, a mass meeting was held. The folks from Xianji Bridge treated it as a joke. Zhou Maolin prepared a passionate speech, but the atmosphere was completely ruined by the women in the audience. Fortunately, the result was good, and Xianji Bridge organized
The gardening field was so happily decided.
It has been less than a year since the intellectual youth arrived, but Xianjiqiao has already begun to change. There are night schools in the evening, and Xianjiqiao has begun to have a cultural nightlife. Now it is ambitiously preparing to build a garden garden.
Chang Xing's life also began to change. He no longer shrouded Fengmei Village in heavy fog and stayed alone on Fengmei Village with the door closed as before. Instead, he often walked down the mountain. So much so that the old cat was very interested in Chang Xing.
Xing was very worried: Spring is coming, and the little Taoist priest is afraid that his heart will be moved by spring!
"Chang Xing, how about you come to our Xianjiqiao brigade and hang up your account with the production team. Now we are running a gardening farm. When the gardening farm is completed in the future, you can also get dividends. The land on your mountain is yours.
We don't care about what you produce on your own land. How much work you have done for the production team will be calculated for you. What do you think?" Zhou Maolin asked.
"It's no problem if the account is linked to the Xianjiqiao Brigade. Forget about the dividends from the gardening farm." Chang Xing slowly understood now that he couldn't hide in the mountains forever, he would always have to come out of the mountains. This secular account
It still needs to be done.
These days, it's easy to open an account. You can just put Chang Xing in anyone's home. It's all a matter of Zhou Maolin's words.
"Since we have joined the Xianjiqiao Brigade, we will naturally be treated equally with the members of the Xianjiqiao Brigade. Don't worry, no one will have any objections," Zhou Maolin said.
Zhou Maolin thought about the house again: "Although you have a place to live on the mountain, it is the Ancestral Temple after all. How about you build another house at Xianji Bridge. I will help you with this matter. What do you think? Xianji Bridge has
If you have a place to stay, you won’t have to go up the mountain all night after your night classes.”
"Isn't this necessary?" Chang Xing said.
"Why don't you use it? You are not young anymore, and you will be dating someone in two years. If someone knows that you live in the Patriarch's Temple, who will be willing to follow you to the mountains to become a Taoist nun?" Zhou Maolin said.
Chang Xing has not yet thought about courting his mother-in-law, and feels that everything is still far away from him. As a cultivator, he is still different from the people in the village.
Seeing that Chang Xing was already hesitating, Zhou Maolin quickly struck while the iron was hot: "I know you have to wait for the old Taoist to come back on the mountain. You live down the mountain, you can also wait for the old Taoist to come back! If the old Taoist knows that you are here at Xianji Bridge
I don’t know how happy I am to be back with my inheritance. It’s best if you find a wife and give the old Taoist priest another disciple, and he will be even happier.”
"Just build it." Chang Xing agreed.
"I have chosen the place for you. There is a good house site next to my house. Originally, Xiao Laosi wanted to build a house there, but I refused. I said that my house will be built in the future. It is convenient to build it next to it. Now give it
You are just in time. Go and have a look for yourself, you know how to read Feng Shui anyway. If there is no problem, prepare to start construction. The people of Senji Hashimoto Brigade only need to wait for food, and it won't cost much." Zhou Maolin said.
Chang Xing followed Zhou Maolin to check out the house site. It was very large, more than enough for a house with three entrances.
"Is this place okay?" Zhou Maolin said.
"Not bad." Chang Xing nodded.
"Then I'll call Fang Qing to come over and draw the foundation line and start construction as soon as possible. The gardening field over there is about to start construction, so don't get together." Zhou Maolin said.
"No need, I can do it by myself. Take your time. Everyone should go and do things at the teahouse," Chang Xing said.
Zhou Maolin suddenly remembered the Ancestral Temple on the mountain and knew that Chang Xing was going to use Taoism: "I'll tell everyone so that the little bastards don't come here to play. You should be quieter. This place is not like Fengmei Village. If you are seen by others, you will be afraid."
It’s not good.”
Zhou Maolin was a little worried. Once the story of Chang Xing Hui Taoism was revealed and someone knew about it, he might cause trouble.
"I know, I will pay attention." Chang Xing said.
Behind the foundation is a stone mountain, not too far away. It is quite convenient to get stones from there to build a house. The village burns lime and also gets stones from this mountain. But to get stones in the village, you can only use a hammer or hammer.
Blow it up with explosives. For Chang Xing, removing the stone is extremely simple. He just needs to make the process of removing the stone not look so shocking.
From that day on, the stone wall on the foundation was built day by day. Many people in Xianji Bridge knew that Chang Xing built a house. They often met Chang Xing and asked how the house was built. But no one would run over to watch.
Even the young man was warned not to run in that direction.
Almost a month later, the people of Xianjiqiao had reclaimed the two barren hills, and Chang Xing also built the house up to the stacks, preparing to put up beams and tiles.
Of course, Chang Xing couldn't do it alone. This time, the whole village came over. Zhang Fangqing led people to the back of his house and cut down a straight fir tree.
After decades, the tree is very thick and straight, and the wood has become very dense, which is a very good material for making furniture.
But people in the yard also said that Zhang Fangqing was using his power for personal gain and gave the red envelope given by Chang Xing to his own family. Of course, everyone was joking. Who would be willing to steal such a thick fir tree for others to make beams? Generally speaking, you don’t need to do that to make beams.
A thick fir tree, because the beams of the house are not load-bearing. As long as it is straight and not bent, it will be fine. But Zhang Fangqing insisted on cutting down the fir tree. He said that such a tree is suitable to be used as a house beam.
Citron Changxing was not prepared, so his family brought a few tiles and put them together. The tiles were from a kiln that everyone fired together. Not long after they were fired, the tiles from this kiln were fired very well, with very little damage.
The quality of the tiles is also very good. When knocked, they sound like metal, making a pleasant "dang-dang-dang-dang" sound.
After finishing the beam, Zhang Fangqing patted Chang Xing on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Chang Xing, from today on, you are truly a member of Xianji Bridge. From now on, you will work with your uncle to earn work points. Now that you have a house, I will let you
Auntie, let me tell you about the most beautiful girl’s house. Do you still remember that Wu Baoheng from last time? That uncle Wu Xiumei’s girl’s house is really beautiful. Even prettier than the educated young people who come to our brigade.”
Chang Xing was a little embarrassed: "Uncle Fang Qing, it's still early."
"How early? I have known your aunt since I was your age." Zhang Fangqing chuckled, "I went to your aunt's house to build a house at that time, and your aunt brought me water. I liked it at first sight.
Already."
"Fang Qing, Chang Xing has arranged a wedding with a baby. Do you still need to introduce me?" Xiao Laosi said.
"Didn't Dajiang's family regret it? You'll be marrying a mother-in-law for a lifetime, not just playing house, and you can change it again and again?" Zhang Fangqing said very directly.
Xiao Dajiang was very embarrassed when he heard this. He coughed twice and walked away.
"Fang Qing, you should pay attention to the occasion when you speak. In fact, Dajiang is quite a good person. He is just a little afraid of mothers-in-law." Zhou Maolin said.
"Oh, these are young people's affairs. If they are interested, adults can't stop them. In fact, Teacher Wu seems to be quite good to Chang Xing." Xiao Laosi said.
"People come from the city, and they will always go back in the future. Will they be willing to stay in Xianji Bridge for the rest of their lives?" Zhang Fangqing said.
"That's true." Xiao Laosi nodded.
Chang Xing saw that everyone was talking further and further away, so he quickly said: "Thanks to everyone for your help today, there is no good wine or food, everyone, don't dislike it."
"Chang Xing, it doesn't matter if the food is good or not, as long as you have bacon. It doesn't matter if the wine is good or not, as long as you can enjoy yourself. It's best if you bring out a few jars of the wine you have hidden." Zhang Fangqing said.
"Drink as much as you can, but don't go crazy after sipping the wine! Changxing's new house is being built with beams, so don't come here to make trouble!" Zhou Maolin warned.
"Uncle Maolin, don't worry. I know it when I'm drunk. Even if I'm drunk, I won't cause trouble. But if you don't drink well, don't blame me." Zhang Fangqing said with a smile.
"Chang Xing, did you hear that? Bring out more wine and drink him to death to prevent him from causing trouble." Zhou Maolin said with a smile.
Just as we were about to start dinner, a group of intellectual young people came.
"Comrade Chang Xing, you are so mean. You didn't notify us of such a big thing. You don't have the revolutionary friendship of a revolutionary comrade at all." Wu Wanyi walked over amidst the sound of firecrackers. As soon as she saw Chang Xing, she started
Complain.
Chang Xing scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
