Only by reciprocating courtesy and changing people's hearts can the friendship between neighbors last for a long time.
In this way, after the gifts were arranged, Suning calmly headed to the butcher shop opposite.
"Thank you, brother, I'm here to bother you."
After opening the heavy curtain leading to the main hall, Suning smiled and handed over the wine and snacks politely.
"Brother Yi is here."
"Hey, come on over. What are you bringing?"
"It's not easy for you to make money..."
The middle-aged man, who was polite and wearing a thick-sleeved shirt, was smiling from ear to ear.
"Damn it, make tea quickly."
"Wuyi, has your sister come back?"
"Ask her to go to the kitchen and help with chopping vegetables and so on."
After receiving the gift with a glowing face, a man named Xie Hongchun quickly asked Suning to sit down.
Soon, his wife Wang brought two cups of hot tea, equally enthusiastic.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, please."
Suning leaned over slightly to express his gratitude.
Mrs. Wang waved her hands in panic and said with a cheerful smile: "No trouble, no trouble, just a common meal. Lao Xie from my hometown has been talking about it for countless days, saying that the wine brewed by Brother Yi is hard to find in the world, and it is the best wine he has ever drunk in his life.
.”
"No, on the surface I'm inviting you to dinner, but actually I'm thinking about your two jars of wine."
Xie Hongchun laughed and scolded: "Go, go, cook your food, don't slander me in front of brother Yi."
"I'm a glutton for wine. I eat three or four taels in a meal. I won't drink too much, and it won't affect my meat sales the next day."
"But having said that, I have tasted hundreds of kinds of wine in my life, both soft and strong, and none of them can compare to the wine made by Brother Yi."
"One sip will warm your whole body, and the fatigue of the day will be gone."
“I didn’t have any headache or dizziness the next day, and I felt very energetic.”
"Tsk, that feeling is indescribably wonderful, it makes people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves."
He sighed with emotion and couldn't help but take a sip of tea instead of wine and said: "Come, brother Yi, let's drink tea and taste my "Mountain Rain Tea". Is it worth three silver coins per pound?"
Half an hour later, the food was served and the aroma was fragrant.
It is indeed as Wang said, it is an ordinary daily meal.
But it was this kind of atmosphere where the whole family was sitting together and having fun together, which made Suning's nose sore when he saw it, and he couldn't help but recall the scenes of living in China in the past.
In summer evenings, grandpa always likes to sit under the peach tree in the yard to enjoy the cool air, with a cigarette in his mouth and chatting with grandma who is cooking in the kitchen from time to time.
His father, Su Mingkang, packed up the farm tools in silence, sometimes banging the hoe, and sometimes repairing the cracked basket.
The crazy third uncle ran around the village, whining and giggling at the sky.
Suning likes to sit under the eaves and listen to her grandfather telling stories about pig killing, whose pigs cannot be killed and whose pigs shed tears.
When the uncle and his wife come rushing to the door, the house becomes more lively.
Some or not, the parents chatted briefly.
Rumors from other villages, jokes from this village.
In the blink of an eye, things change and people change.
Grandpa and grandma are gone, but Suning, who has been away from China for twenty years, has a family and cannot return.
He missed his parents, missed Kunlun, and wanted to go back to Taoshan Village.
Walk along the path in the village and sit at my uncle's house.
For ordinary people, this is something they can do if they want to, but for him, it has become a luxury.
I don’t know how long it will take to complete it, and whether there is still a chance to complete it.
"Gulu."
After three rounds of drinking, and after Suning deliberately did not use his magical power to force out the alcohol, he clearly felt that his mind was feeling dizzy.
Feeling dizzy, vision blurred, cheeks burning.
"Oh, no wonder the third uncle used to drink to drown his sorrows."
"Alcohol is a poison that penetrates the intestines. It can also make people temporarily forget their sorrows."
"Thank you, brother, drink."
Raise your glass and drink it all in one gulp.
Suning was drunk, feeling drunk for the first time in her life.
