"Xiaobao, come here." Li Feng paused for a moment, then followed his grandma into the back room. The light in the back room was a bit dark. The light was not very good today. There were no lights in the room, and there was no electricity in the mountains. I heard that last time I came here Wires may be installed at the end of the year. Grandma opened a large red-painted wooden box that was one of her dowry gifts and took out a small red cloth wrapped bag. She carefully placed it on the table. Li Feng watched in a daze as grandma slowly untied it. He actually wrapped a stack of RMB, one hundred, fifty, twenty, ten big and small.
"Xiaobao, we heard about the little bell. It costs a lot of money to go to the capital. Grandma doesn't have much money here. You can take this little money. In addition, Yuan Datou can exchange some money for you, so take it with you. "Grandma said, pushing the cloth bag to Li Feng. My grandfather's ancestors had been bandits for several years, and these longevity bracelets were probably left behind at that time. Li Feng took a look and saw that Yuan Datou looked like fifty or sixty years ago.
Li Feng stepped forward, re-wrapped the red cloth and put it in Grandma's hand. Li Feng never said anything about the bell, fearing that the two old men would worry about it. I don't know where Grandma heard that Li Feng couldn't take the money. The coffins of the two old people. "Grandma, my grandson has already raised enough money for Lingdang's surgery. You don't have to worry. We are going to the capital these days. I have already arranged the affairs of the two children. Today is the New Year, and Lingdang will be able to do it." I called you grandma." Li Feng sat next to grandma. Li Feng didn't know what the old man was thinking. "That's great. Oh, your second aunt, it's true that such a girl has not said anything about coming back for several years. I don’t know if you have to pay for the surgery now, Xiaobao. Just take the money with you. The capital is no more expensive than other places. Grandma doesn’t have much money. That’s all.”
"That's enough, grandma. Your grandson is rich now and has no shortage of money. I'll take you to the city that day to have a look. I just bought a house in the city. You and grandpa go and have a look at the big cities. What's it like?" In order to appease his grandmother, Li Feng talked about the house in Amber Villa where he was heavily in debt. "I won't go there. I'm old. I can't walk anymore. You have a future. Grandma is happy." The old man saw that. Li Feng was so determined and didn't say anything.
"Dad, look what the baby caught." Li Baobao held a small can with a small four-legged snake in it. At this time, four-legged snakes were rare. The weather was getting colder and colder. Snakes, insects, rats and ants are now It’s rare to see this thing anymore. Where did this girl catch such a thing?{/Update uploaded by book friends} What a brave girl, she can catch this thing casually without fear of being bitten. Really, Li Feng pulled the baby over and hit the little girl hard He slapped her butt twice. "If you are naughty again, daddy will spank you." The baby's mouth was innocently flat, and his big eyes were full of mist.
"This child, why are you beating her? Baby, come here to the old lady." Grandma pulled the little girl with tears in her eyes. Li Feng didn't just beat the child for no reason. Ling Ding and Qi Qi called in together. Li Feng planned to educate her well. Some You can't play with things casually. Many of these four-legged snakes are poisonous, such as scorpions, centipedes, spotted snakes, etc. You can't play with them casually. Normally, the bites are fine, but if you touch something highly poisonous, you will be more than just a little bit. It hurts, and my life is at risk.
"Oh, the baby knows it's wrong." Li Feng picked up the little girl and put it on his lap, patting the baby's belly. "It's good to know. Don't catch small snakes casually in the future. If you don't know the little thing, it will hurt if you bite it.
"Well, Dad, how about we go see Niuniu? Cousin Lingdang will take the baby to see Niuniu. It will be fun."
"Niu Niu, what Niu Niu?" Li Feng was a little confused. Niu Niu, buffalo, old scalper, this girl has seen and touched them all before. What's so fun about cows?
"Lingdang, you take your baby to Grandpa Wu's house to see oil pressing." Grandma said this, and Li Feng remembered that oil extraction was done by traditional methods, but there was a process for oil extraction from the tea tree. When he was a child, he used to go to his grandmother's house.
I have played it before. This is quite interesting. Li Feng recalled that when he was a child, his uncle and aunt took him to play and ran around all day long. Of course, when it was not time to press oil, a village boy ran to make a bullock cart, but
It's fun.
The oil pressing here still uses manual techniques. Li Feng didn't remember clearly. The camellia fruit must be fried on one side, and then put on the oxhuzi, a large iron ring with a diameter of about ten meters, with a channel in the middle, and the camellia fruit must be fried on one side.
After frying, put them in, and then use oxen to pull the wooden frame. There are several iron wheels on the front and back of the wooden frame, which can roll in the iron trough and easily crush the tea fruits. Many people can sit on the wooden frame pulled by the old ox.
Children, on the one hand, they find it fun, and on the other hand, it is easier to sit with two or three people pressing the wooden frame to crush tea fruits. Usually when pressing oil, there are children waiting for a long time, but now there are not many children in the village
, most of the young people have gone out to live, work or something. There are young people in the village who are at home during the New Year. There are few young people at home at this time. This old-fashioned oil extraction method has long been used outside the mountains, and only in Laoshan it still exists.
Using.
Li Feng followed the bell and picked up a few bottles of wine. Liu Tianming gave these wines to an old man, the better Lao Longtan, and the Maotai he gave. Li Feng was really reluctant to part with it. The fifth grandpa just settled down with his seniority and left early.
I got the fifth server. Li Feng came to Master Wu’s house, Zhang Changhe, who was frying tea fruits. The old man was stunned when Li Feng arrived, and it took him a long time to recognize him. "You are Xiaobao, ah, really, come in and sit down. This kid
I haven’t seen you in many years.”
"Grandpa Wu is still so strong." Li Feng smiled and handed a few bottles of wine to Grandpa Wu. "Where, it's okay. Look, just come and see your Grandpa Wu. What do you bring?" "These are all.
I went out a while ago and someone gave me some specialties, so you can try them." Li Feng's specialties are really nothing more than some smelly dried seeds, meat, etc. Most of them are eaten.
"Haha, the bell is back. Why did you hear that the little girl's throat can be cured?" Grandpa Wu is much younger than his grandfather. He often goes out and walks around. He is relatively young in the village now. He is in his fifties. Compared with Li Feng,
My father is a few years older.
"Yes, we have contacted the hospital in the capital and prepared all the money. We will go to the capital in a few days. We will be there for at least a month or two, and some of them will come over to visit the two elderly people." Li Feng told Jian
Shao Baobao, Qi Qi, the fifth grandpa sighed a few times when he heard that Qi Qi was just like Ling Dang. "Okay, this girl is pitiful." The fifth grandpa touched Ling Dang's little head, his face full of joy.
"Dad, Niu Niu." The baby ran over eagerly, but the father didn't let the old man "". "Haha, it turns out it was you two little girls just now. Haha, come on, I just have a pot of tea and fruit rolling here." Five
Grandpa laid the tea fruits in the iron ring road. These tea fruits were fried, smashed, and crushed with a roller. The old cow was very obedient. He would stop when he was told and leave when he was told. This was the first time Li Feng saw him.
With such an obedient old cow, I have ridden on the cattle rack several times, but I almost fell down a few times. The old cow kept talking, shouting, and walking.
"Fifth grandma, this cow is really obedient. It is much better than the old cows." "No, this cow is the best cow I have driven in my life. Last year, your fifth grandma still thought this was a bull.
Well, she doesn’t know how good and obedient this cow is. Xiaobao, please put some children on it. You can also go up and try it. You haven’t sat on this cow’s plate for how many years.” Grandpa Wu patted the old cow.
The first scalper is really an old scalper with a good head.
"No, I haven't sat down for more than ten years. Baby, please don't move around for a while, otherwise I won't let you sit down." Li Feng carried several children onto the cow plate, and sat on the edge watching the little girls.
The plates slowly and leisurely circled around, like a merry-go-round. Li Feng sat on the wooden shelf and thought about how when he was a child, a group of people were still squeezing each other, but now the small mountain village is empty, and it is rare for outsiders to come. The mountains are hospitable, in fact.
Sometimes I think about it, because of loneliness, sometimes there are no outsiders for a month or two. Many people come to ask if there are guests. When walking into the mountain village, many old men and old ladies ask, which family do you come from? Who do you belong to?
There was a bustle of guests coming to the house, and the mountain was quite peaceful. Now most of the old people are left, guarding the old house, looking forward to their children and grandchildren.
"Grandpa Fifth, please be busy. We will go back in a moment." When the children first met, Grandpa Five gave Bao Bao and Qi Qi a set of ninety-nine copper coins strung with a large amount of red thread like a longevity lock.
For a long time. Bao Bao and Qi Qi saw each other for the first time. A long-life lock with a pig's head and copper coins and red thread were strung together like a necklace. The two of them thought it was quite fun. There were also bells. In comparison, the bells were better than Bao Bao and Qi Qi's.
There will be more in the long run.
"Grandma, that's enough." Li Feng smiled bitterly, and when he got into the bag, he just found it empty. Grandma filled it with pheasants and the children like to eat them, so they got five or six, mushrooms, dried red fungus, and golden white fungus.
, hericium, dried wild vegetables, and many other things, stuffed full of them. Li Feng was really dumbfounded. The bag he used as a cover-up was really useful now. "Grandma, go back." Li Feng said.
The children have already walked two or three miles, and grandma is still sending them off. "Slow down on the road, Xiaobao, and look after a few children. Next time you come back, don't forget to bring your wife to grandma to see."
Li Feng looked at his grandmother standing on the hillside from a distance, and did not want to go back for a long time. Li Feng walked for more than ten minutes and looked back and saw the old man standing on the hillside looking at him. Grandma was already gray-haired, so he would come and see her more in the future.
I heard that the mountain road will be overhauled next year. I don’t know if it can be repaired here. Maybe it can be along the river. Li Feng thought that it would be farther away from the other half of the river at that time. As long as the road is repaired, the drive will only take an hour or two. It will be convenient.
very.
"Dad, the old lady stuffed the bag into the baby's bag, and she said it after passing the zipline before letting the baby say it." A few people had just passed the zipline, and when Li Feng hugged the baby, the little girl whispered.
"What, you little girl, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Li Feng was slightly startled when he saw something wrapped in red cloth, and raised his hand to slap the little girl. "Forget it, forget it, don't cry, Dad.
I won’t hit you anymore, let’s go.” The little girl flattened her mouth and held back the golden beans. Li Feng had no choice but to coax her. (To be continued...)
