The little Taoist priest also looked at the little girl with curious eyes. He had a round face and fair skin. He couldn't help pinching the little girl's face with his hands.
"Wow!" The little girl was stunned for a moment, then burst into tears.
This cry made the Taoist priest a little panicked. He was completely at a loss, as if he had turned on the wrong switch. Tears welled up from his big bright eyes like spring water. Could it be so painful if he pinched it gently?
"Little Taoist Master, please ignore her. She loves to cry the most. She bursts into tears whenever she is touched. Let's go out to catch eels without taking that crybaby with us." Xilai climbed up, pulled the little Taoist Master and ran out
.
The crying little girl was stunned and didn't care about crying. She quickly got off the bed and ran out barefoot.
"Brother, wait for me!"
As soon as the little Taoist went out, he was stopped by the old Taoist: "Xing'er, where are you going? We are going back to the mountain."
"Taoist Priest, can you have breakfast before leaving?" Zhang Fangqing quickly persuaded him to stay.
"No, it will delay your work." The old man was not ambiguous at all this time.
Zhou Maolin also rushed over early in the morning: "Taoist priest, come to my house to have breakfast. Xiao Guilian went to the town early in the morning to buy meat and brought it back to my house to prepare it. Please go over with the Taoist priest and have breakfast."
"No, no, my disciple and I will go up the mountain right away. You are all busy with the double robbery now. I won't waste your time." The old Taoist took his disciple and walked towards Fengmei Village.
The little Taoist leader was also curious about how to catch eels, but unfortunately there was no chance this time.
"Little Taoist Master, next time you come down the mountain, I will take you to the fields to catch loaches."
"Yes!" The little Taoist smiled and waved to Xilai.
"Master, why are we walking so fast? I haven't eaten the yellow legs yet. Huh? We forgot to mention the chicken." The little Taoist priest complained to the master that he could forget such an important thing.
"That chicken was cooked last night." The old Taoist muttered.
"Then why didn't you tell me to get up and eat?" Xiaodao became anxious, and tears began to well up in his eyes again.
"You yelled, you were too sleepy, so I didn't let Uncle Fang Qing yell." The old Taoist laughed.
"You also ate the yellow legs?" the little Taoist priest said dissatisfied.
"We drank a lot last night and didn't cook anything else to go with the wine. The chicken wasn't that big either. Two of the yellow legs were removed, and there were only a few pieces of meat left. I asked Mrs. Fang Qing to cook all the chicken legs.
Chop it into pieces." The old Taoist said.
The little Taoist priest was very dissatisfied: "You actually exchanged my yellow leg for wine."
The old Taoist kept laughing and allowed his disciple to complain all the way.
When we got to the mountain, the old Taoist said: "Disciple, you like eating yellow legs so much. We will raise more chickens in the future. When you are greedy, we will kill chickens for you to eat. What do you think?"
"Okay!" The little Taoist priest nodded repeatedly.
The master and the apprentice went up the mountain and did not rush back to the ancestral temple. Instead, they went to the rice fields. The rice seedlings in the rice fields were planted yesterday and will be exposed to the sun for a day. Under normal circumstances, the leaves of the rice seedlings will be a little wilted in the sun. But on this day
Not only are the seedlings not wilting, but they have a feeling of prosperity. The seedlings are tender and green, and it seems as if they have been planted in this field forever.
"It's a pity that no fertilizer was added. I'm afraid that the rice won't be able to produce enough rice in the future." The old Taoist said with some worry.
"Master, when the millet is threshed in the future, how long will the rice in this field be enough for us to eat?" asked the little Taoist priest.
The old man calculated: "It's enough for us to enjoy for half a year. Next year we can plant two crops, which will be enough for us to enjoy for a year."
"Master, let's dig another field. Won't this be enough for us to eat for a long time? We will use the remaining grain to feed the chickens. From now on, I can eat yellow legs every day." The little Taoist said to the two
The yellow-legged boy who wasn't eating was thinking about it all the time.
There will be no digging this year. I just asked for a field of seedlings from Xianjiqiao. If I ask for it again, others will definitely not be happy. Forget it, next year we will plant the seedlings in advance. At that time, we will open up another field and it will be fine.
Too much to do.
The old Taoist does not want to owe a favor, because if he owes a favor, he will always have to pay it back in the future.
"Master, are there loaches in our fields? Are there eels? Xi Lai told me that there are many loaches and eels in their team's fields," the little Taoist leader said.
The old Taoist laughed heartily: "How can there be loaches in our newly opened fields? There are no loach species, and there can be no eels. If you want to eat loaches, I will go down the mountain and bring you a few kilograms of loaches."
"Then let's raise some loaches and eels and put them in this field?" The little Taoist leader took the old Taoist's hand.
"It's okay to raise a few loaches. You can't raise eels. If you raise a few eels and put them in this field, the field ridges will be penetrated by the eels. Then the field won't be able to contain water. Wouldn't our seedlings be dried to death?"
?" said the old man.
In the vegetable field next to the rice field, the crops are growing very well. It doesn't look like it's dry at all. The Taoist priest has been digging the fields for the past two days, but he has no time to take care of these vegetables. It hasn't rained, and the sun every day is like a scorching fire. Fairy.
The vegetables in many vegetable fields in Jiqiao are all dried up. But the vegetables in this vegetable field are growing well. They don't look like they are dry at all.
"Xing'er, you go and break off some corn, and we'll roast it when you get back," the old Taoist said.
The director immediately jumped excitedly into the vegetable field, broke off several big corns, and held the corns in his hands. From time to time, corns fell from the director's slender hands.
The old Taoist hurriedly helped and picked up the grain, and the master and the disciple returned to the ancestral temple happily.
When the two masters and disciples went out, the door of the Patriarch's Temple was not locked. This is also to provide convenience for people who come up the mountain. When people from nearby people go to the mountain, some want to stay here. They usually bring various daily necessities. Even if they don't bring them,
If you have used the items in the Patriarch's Temple, you will definitely replenish them in the future.
However, this was the season of double grabbing, and people at the foot of the mountain had no time to go into the mountain. Therefore, the temple of the ancestor was deserted. The old Taoist placed the corn on the Eight Immortals table, and then started to light a fire. The corn was roasted directly on the fire without peeling off the skin.
, the outer skin is moist and not easy to burn. The outer skin wraps the corn tightly. After heating, the temperature inside becomes higher and higher. When the corn outer skin is almost burnt, the corn kernels inside are almost cooked.
.
The old man tore open the corn husks to reveal the golden corn cobs inside. The husks contained a lot of heat, so it was very hot when peeling them off.
"Xing'er, don't move, be careful. It's very hot in here." The old Taoist warned the little Taoist.
"Master, aren't you afraid of getting burned?" the little Taoist priest asked strangely.
"Afraid! Of course you are afraid of getting burned. But with Xing'er here to accompany you, Master is not afraid of getting burned at all. Come on, give Master's fingers a breath and you won't feel the pain immediately." The old Taoist laughed, and the disciple
