Chapter 66: The dumb girl’s bell [Please collect and recommend]
ps: The dumb girl Bell has appeared, and the heroine is about to be introduced. I have made three or four scenes of the heroine's appearance. I will write them down when I have time and put them in the related article.
……………
Grandpa is a taciturn old man. It is hard to imagine that such a man has been working in the industry for more than 40 years. At noon, Li Feng watched Bell helping his grandmother. He wanted to step forward to help, but Grandpa winked at him and said,
The two came to the main room and sat down.
Zhang Gao struck a match vigorously and lit up the dry smoke. The bamboo stem was dark and tinged with light yellow. Li Feng secretly smoked it out of curiosity when he was a child. He was dizzy for a long time. Later he realized that eating cigarettes can also be intoxicating.
"Xiaobao, you also see that it is not the same thing for little Lingdang to live here like this." Zhang Gao's voice was low and slow, with some reluctance and struggle on his face.
These elderly couple are guarding this family, with only such a child around them. From the time they grow up to now, they look at the little girl's face every day, and their mood is happier than drinking iced drinks in summer. Now, it is inevitable that they feel reluctant to give up.
"Second aunt, what do you say?" Li Feng was quite dissatisfied with this matter, but it was not appropriate for him to get involved in the elders' matters. Lingdang here is already five and a half years old, and he is already at the age of elementary school. He can't
No more delays. Although Lijiagang is also in a mountainous area, the transportation has improved now and it is easier to get out of the mountains than here. There is another primary school in Likouzi on the other side of the river.
"What can they say? Let's not talk about her." Zhang Gao blushed slightly, and Li Feng sighed. On the one hand, he was for his second aunt, and on the other hand, he was for Ling Dang. In today's society, men and women really value each other so much.
?
"Grandpa, I think this is it. Let Lingdang go to school at my house. The school is not far away, so it's easy to take care of. I'll bring him back on weekends." Zhang Lan was nagging about not having a daughter a few days ago. Li Feng was not considerate at all. He almost recognized Lin in this way.
Lin Ying became his goddaughter. Li Feng finally persuaded her to stop him. If he became Lin Ying's brother, then the future life would be absolutely dark, like hell with no lights on.
The lunch was quite sumptuous, including a lot of dry goods, braised hare meat, pickled pheasant, old duck soup, and the roe deer meat made last year. It tasted really good. Grandma’s cooking skills were so good that Li Feng kept saying it was delicious.
Li Feng drank a few drinks with his grandfather while eating. Not to mention that although Wuliangye tasted lighter than Baigan, it was really good. Zhang Gao listened to Li Feng talking about how much a bottle costs, and felt a little reluctant.
"Grandpa, this is your grandson's filial piety. Besides, a few hundred yuan is no longer considered money outside." Li Feng asked Zhang Gao to fill up again. Four or five hundred yuan may still be considered money in the mountains, but in Beijing and big cities,
The house price per square meter is 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. Five hundred yuan is nothing.
"You kid, I won't let you do that next time. Just buy two bottles of Laolongtan. How can your grandpa be so rich?" Zhang Gao smiled and picked up the wine glass and took a sip. He was quite satisfied. Good wine is good wine.
It tastes so delicious.
After eating and not taking a break, Li Feng went back again. This time he was not alone. Grandma was quite reluctant to tell Ling Dang to be good, and carefully helped Ling Dang tidy up her clothes. Looking at the little girl, her eyes were filled with moisture.
There are wrinkles like ravines. I touched the bell head and refused to put it down for a long time.
"Grandma, grandpa, let's go. I'll see you again in a few days." Li Feng was carrying a somewhat damaged leather bag. Bells turned back step by step. He was carrying a newly bought schoolbag on his shoulders. His eyes were full of tears. Li Feng reached out and held the little boy's hand.
Girl, comfort me. "Lingdang, it's okay. I'll be back in a few days."
Li Feng took Ling Dang out this time mainly to apply for household registration. This child is now almost six years old and does not have a household registration. He really doesn’t know how to talk to his second aunt. What happened to the girl? Looking at Ling Dang who could not speak, Li Feng tightened his grip
Holding little hands.
Along the mountain road for more than ten miles, the little bell turned back from time to time, as if to remember the path. Speaking of which, the little girl was quite pitiful. She had never been out of the mountains.
"Ling Dang, what's wrong? You hear the bird singing so beautifully." Looking at the depressed Ling Dang, Li Feng smiled and pointed at the bird on the tree. Its beautiful feathers were dyed with golden sunlight and its singing voice was graceful. Ling Ding looked at the little bird,
A smile finally appeared on his face.
When we reached the zipline, Ling Dang was a little scared. Li Feng couldn't comfort her several times, so he could only blindfold the little girl and carry her into the hanging basket.
At four or five o'clock, Li Feng returned to his small courtyard with the bell. Zhang Lan and Li Shan were not at home. Li Feng helped put down the things and led the bell to the Taolin courtyard. There were deer and rabbits there. Children have little thoughts.
Looking at the little things may make you forget about missing home.
"Xiaobao, you're back. Hey, who is this girl?" Uncle Cheng was taking care of the rabbit. A few tender grasses in his hand caused several little rabbits to jump and fight for them. The rabbit is the cutest now. Maybe it's around the spring, maybe it's...
Uncle Cheng and Lin Ying took good care of them, and the five little rabbits were so plump and cute.
"My second aunt's family, bell." Li Feng didn't introduce Uncle Cheng, which surprised Cheng Lao. Why, he only listened to the bells, and Cheng Lao was stunned. Looking at Ling Dang, who was wearing coarse cloth, there was a little extra in his eyes.
pity.
"Come on, little Lingdang, take a look at the rabbit that Grandpa Cheng fed." Mr. Cheng looked at the little girl who was dodging, and led the little rabbit to jump over. Looking at the round, fleshy little rabbit, Lingdang peeked out from behind Li Feng.
Li Feng stood up and watched eagerly. He squatted down with a smile, picked up a rabbit and put it in Ling Dang's hand. The little rabbit seemed to be able to feel the purity and simplicity of Ling Dang, so he squinted his eyes and lay on Ling Dang's hand with enjoyment.
"Uncle Cheng, why aren't Uncle Lin and Uncle Wang here?" Li Feng stretched his head and looked at the yard but saw no one. Now Lin Ying is busy observing the red-crowned cranes and is often away all day long. Fortunately, there are two girls allocated above, so there is no need.
Li Feng is with me every day.
"Lao Wang and the others went to the river beach to catch some rice dumpling leaves." Uncle Cheng accompanied the bell to feed the rabbits, and the little girl's face was filled with sadness.
"Zongzi leaves, I know they went to the reed field. Aren't there some by the pond?" Li Feng turned around and looked at the reeds he was planting. The leaves are longer and fatter than those on the river beach. Why didn't he see that there are a lot of them here? He can eat them at home.
I’m sure I won’t run out of rice dumpling leaves.
"Reed, aren't they looking for wild rice leaves? Why can't reed leaves also be used?" Mr. Cheng only remembered bamboo tubes, wild rice leaves, lotus root leaves, but he had never heard of reed leaves.
"Of course, reed leaves are actually the best. You see, the reed leaves are neither long nor short, just right. And reeds can be found wherever there is water." Li Feng walked a few steps quickly and picked a leaf, which was one foot long.
Stacked into a pentagon, that's really what happened.
"Haha, these two old guys have lived in vain this time, haha." Cheng Lao could imagine himself telling Li Feng what he said for a while, with a depressed expression on his face, which made him laugh out loud.
At this time, Mr. Wang's hearty laughter came from outside the peach forest, and Mr. Lin's voice could be heard faintly. Li Feng was happy. It was such a coincidence that Cao Cao would be here as soon as he arrived.
As usual, Li Feng introduced Ling Dang to the two old people. The two of them knew that Ling Dang could not speak as if they were adults, and their eyes were filled with pity. Especially Mr. Wang, whose granddaughter also grew up beside the old couple and is now living happily. Although
A little naughty, but I always think about it and think about it.
Li Feng looked at the wild rice leaves in the hands of the two old men and chuckled. He saw that there were not many leaves, and the wild rice plants that Li Feng's side also called water melons grew in puddles. They were not allowed to go down by the river. Looking at the two old men, their feet
Silt, it was not easy to get this handful of wild rice leaves. At this time, the wild rice has already grown into small water melons, which are sweet and crisp when eaten raw. The largest ones are no more than the thickness of a thumb. When Li Feng was a child, Li Feng liked the fresh water melons that just came out at this time. They are tender.
It's crispy and sweet. Before going to school, I would fill my school bag with it in ditches, ponds, and river banks, and eat it while walking. It was delicious.
Here, Li Feng recalled what happened when he was a child. When he became an old man, Li Feng told Mr. Lin, and Mr. Wang listened. Mr. Lin slapped his forehead and remembered that the rice dumplings he ate during the years in Lijiagang seemed to be wrapped in reed leaves. How could he forget it?
, you see this, it took me a long time to get this handful of leaves.
"Oh, forget it, we just said that these few leaves are not enough to eat, now it's better, there are so many reed leaves, just right." Mr. Wang was quite optimistic, and then put the wild rice leaves in his hand on the small bamboo table.
, moved a chair and sat down, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, handed it to Mr. Lin, and drank half a cup in one go.
In the end, Mr. Wang still couldn't worry about the rice dumpling leaves. He looked at the big and wide reeds beside Li Feng's lotus pond. He got his thoughts on it and pulled Li Feng to tell him what kind of rice dumpling leaves were best to pick.
The reed leaves should not be too old, as they will easily crack when wrapped. They should also not be too young, as the young leaves are too small and will break easily. The middle ones are best, not old or tender, moderate in size, but with holes or openings.
, no, it’s quite simple. After hearing this, the three old people immediately started picking.
"Uncle Wang, you can't just pick one." Li Feng looked at Uncle Wang desperately trying to pick just one. Otherwise, the reed would turn into a stick, which is not possible. Li Feng stepped forward and continued, "Pick a few leaves from each reed.
It will not affect the growth of the reed, but if all the leaves are removed, there will be problems with the growth of the reed."
Before Li Feng finished speaking, Mr. Wang already had a sarcastic look on his face. Looking at Lu Wei who had already taken off his clothes, his face was quite ugly. After Li Feng finished speaking, he was shocked. He was so bad that he didn't consider the old man's feelings. Fortunately,
Mr. Wang was quite generous and chatted and laughed for less than two minutes. This made Li Feng feel relieved. A few reeds were nothing. If he made the old man unhappy, he would be guilty.
"Ah ah." Li Feng turned around and took a look. Bell pointed at the lotus in the water and shouted loudly, as if he was very anxious. The little girl had never been out of the mountains and had never seen a lotus in her life. The mouth of the bowl looked so white.
I quite like the lotus flowers.
Li Feng smiled and went into the yard and took out an iron hook and a net bag. He carefully used the iron hook to break it.
, Xiaohua watched Li Feng come back, walked out of her flower shed cabin with elegant steps, and rubbed Li Feng's legs affectionately.
