In the next few days, people will come and go in a hurry no matter whether they are busy or not, and the whole village will be busy at first.

But these few days Zhang Taiping actually stayed at home for a few days, there are special people responsible for the things that have been arranged, and he can't let him worry about it, so these few days he is thinking about the sedan chair at home.

Although he has the craft of a carpenter, he must be a person who lives in a small mountain village with limited knowledge, and most of the things he makes are ordinary furniture and farm tools. Naturally, he doesn't know how to make this sedan chair.However, one advantage of modern society is that if you don't understand something, you can look up information on the Internet, and basically there is nothing you can't find.

For the past two days, Zhang Taiping has been sitting alone on the desk in front of the computer, while collecting information from the Internet and drawing sketches based on his imagination.

Finally finished the sketch, the next thing is easy, nothing more than finding the right wood to make.

Originally, sedan chairs were carried by people, so the consideration of weight was very important. The wood should not only be light but also tough.But the sedan chair made by Zhang Taiping was not intended to be carried by people at all. In his plan, this sedan chair was made to be large to the local area, just like the ancient phoenix chariot. More than eight people.He plans to install wheels on the bottom and use horses to pull it, which can not only look dignified and imposing, but also save manpower.Therefore, the requirements for wood are not very high, as long as it is hard.

Other things in the mountains are hard to find, but wood is definitely the best thing to find, so there is nothing to worry about.

These few days Zhang Taiping was lying in front of the computer as if in a magic barrier, picking up and dropping off Yaya and going to school every day was like water, so he didn't know that the little girl was on vacation again.

When I went out, I saw two little girls tinkering with things in the yard. I looked at the sky, it was still in the morning, and I looked at my watch. It was indeed only after nine o'clock. I couldn't help asking strangely: "Why didn't you go to school?" ?”

The two little girls turned around and saw Zhang Taiping coming out, they got up and ran over and said, "We're on vacation, three days off."

"It's a holiday again, what holiday?" Didn't you just have the National Day holiday, why did you have another holiday within two days.

"Mid-Autumn holiday." The little girl Tiantian said.

"August [-]th?" Zhang Taiping couldn't help being slightly surprised. He seldom pays attention to the date at home, and he doesn't know the solar calendar, let alone the lunar calendar. Unexpectedly, the Mid-Autumn Festival will already be here before he knows it.

He asked Yaya, "Where's your mother?"

"I went to the mountain to pick chrysanthemums." Yaya replied.

"Oh." Zhang Taiping replied, there is indeed a custom in the mountains on August [-]th to pick some wild chrysanthemums and come back to make tea at night, "Why didn't you go?"

"Tiantian and I are going to plant prickly pears." As she spoke, the little girl opened her hand, and there were two small prickly pears in a cardboard box.

Zhang Taiping pinched it and looked at it and asked, "Where did you get the cactus?"

"Godfather, be careful, there are thorns on it, they pricked my hand just now." The little girl Tian Tian hurriedly shouted beside her.

Zhang Taiping said: "It doesn't matter." He put the cactus ball in his palm and rolled it. With his thick skin and flesh, these small thorns would definitely not be able to penetrate it.

"The teacher gave this to us. Let us take it back and plant it in a flower pot. Water it every day. After a while, it will grow." The two little girls saw that Zhang Taiping was really not afraid of the thorns on it, so they cut the two small cactus The source said it.

"Then where are you going to go again?"

"No, it's in that basin." Yaya pointed to the corner where the two of them were squatting just now, there was a broken plastic basin.

Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "That pot is broken, here, I'll give you two flower pots, plant them in the pots and put them on the table."

Zhang Taiping took out two ceramic flowerpots for the two little girls, the fist-sized flowerpots were just right for prickly pears.

After the little girls took it, they were ready to add the soil in the broken plastic pot.

Zhang Taiping said: "It is best to add some sand to the prickly pear and cactus when planting them."

"Why?" The little aunts were puzzled. Plants were always planted in soil, and they had never been planted in sand.

Zhang Taiping replied: "The most suitable place for cactus and prickly pear to grow is the desert, which already grows in the sand, now if you put some sand in it, it will be suitable for them to grow.

The two little girls naturally obeyed their father's instructions, added some soil to the inside, filled it with sand, and prepared to bury the prickly pear inside.

Zhang Taiping added: "It's not planted in this way, it just needs to be placed on top and watered a little."

After teaching the two little girls to plant prickly pears, Zhang Taiping originally wanted to go inside the village to have a look, but the two little girls caught up from behind and said, "Father, the hawthorns on the mountain are ripe. Let's go to the mountain to pick them?" He took out a crimson hawthorn from his pocket and placed it in the palm of his hand.

"Who gave this to you?" Zhang Taiping put the hawthorn in the innermost part and tasted it. The sourness is slightly sweet, but hawthorn is just like this.

"Wang Xuetong gave it to us." Yaya replied.

"Okay, go up the mountain to pick hawthorns." Zhang Taiping said with a smile.

The two little girls cheered, rushed into the room, took out two bamboo baskets, and called out the little grizzly bear.After half a year of growth, the little grizzly has grown to the size of an ordinary dog.Wukong also jumped out of the house.

"This guy didn't follow your mother to the mountain?" Zhang Taiping wondered.

"No." Yaya replied, "It's watching TV inside the house."

"Did the TV turn off when you came out?" Zhang Taiping asked Wukong.

I scratched my head in vain and jumped into the room, and soon came out with a bag in my hand.

The hawthorn trees on the mountain were not planted by the people in the mountains themselves, but sowed by planes on the mountain a few years ago when they sowed the seeds. There was only a small hill with dozens of hawthorn trees growing sporadically.Because there is no one to manage the wild, the fruit on the tree is not dense. Fortunately, it can bear fruit every year. Adults have no interest in this, and it becomes a snack for children at this time.

Zhang Taiping led the other little girl, followed by the restless Wukong and the little grizzly bear who was a little too active, only the grimace followed behind most steadily.

When the hawthorn is ripe, it is full of red, even the leaves of the tree are red, and it is difficult to distinguish the leaves from the fruits. Only when you come to the front, you can see that the hawthorn fruits are more vividly red than the leaves, like clusters of burning flames.

The most famous effect of hawthorn is to invigorate the stomach, nourish the spleen and ventilate. It is a good medicine for treating abdominal distension and indigestion.

In the countryside, the medicine that people often take when they have indigestion is "Big Hawthorn Pill", which is made from hawthorn.

When he reached the top of the hill, Wukong climbed up the tree slowly, picked the bright red fruits and put them in his mouth first.

The first one made it grin its teeth, it was too sour.But it didn't spit it out, because animals know better than humans what is good for them and what is bad for them. In the evolution of thousands of years of human beings, with the increase of wisdom, these natural inductions have gradually degenerated. Not as good as animals.

"Wukong, throw some down." Yaya and Tiantian shouted from under the tree.

Hearing this, Wukong quickly picked a few strings and threw them down, and the two little girls picked up the scattered ones on the ground and put them into the basket.The little grizzly also snatched one and swallowed it into his mouth, and then spit it out. It couldn't stand the sour taste.

Wukong ate and threw down from the tree, and the two little girls under the tree ran back and forth like flowers and butterflies to pick up the hawthorns that rolled down on the grass.Grimace stood by the tree and looked at the two little girls, following Zhang Taiping's arrangement to guard them faithfully.And the little grizzly has long since gone.

Zhang Taiping looked around these hawthorn trees, picked out some branches, folded them down and placed them in the space, and then transplanted them to the hillside inside the space.

When it was almost noon, Zhang Taiping's phone rang.

"Are Yaya and Tiantian with you?" Cai Yazhi asked.

"Together."

"Scared me, I thought I couldn't find the two of them again. The meal is ready, let's come back to eat."

Zhang Taiping hung up the phone in response, and shouted to the two little girls: "Meet me for dinner."

Hearing the shout, Wukong was the first to run over, followed by the two little girls carrying a basket full of hawthorns.

"Let me carry it." Zhang Taiping said.A basket weighing several catties is still a bit heavy for a little girl.

After the two little girls put the basket in Zhang Taiping's hands, Wukong quickly took off the bag hanging around his neck and put it in Zhang Taiping's hands.

Zhang Taiping couldn't help laughing and cursing: "You are the only one who is smart."

Yaya and Tiantian walked around Zhang Taiping, stroked his stomach and said, "I'm so hungry."

Wukong also touched his stomach in a similar manner and squeaked, beckoning in front of the three to hurry up.

Zhang Taiping ignored Wukong, and said to the two little girls with a smile: "Hawthorn is good for digestion. The more you eat, the faster your digestion will be, and the faster you will be hungry. Whoever ate the most just now will be hungrier now."

The two little girls smiled and said, "Wukong is the most hungry, he ate the most just now."

"Why don't you see the little grizzly bear?" Tiantian looked around and asked.

Zhang Taiping had long since realized that the little guy was missing, but now he was very familiar with the nearby hills, so he didn't worry about losing it, so he said, "It doesn't matter, we will meet for dinner first, and it will come back by itself when it is hungry."

Halfway on the way, the little grizzly suddenly jumped out, with a rabbit in its mouth.The little guy threw the rabbit in front of Zhang Taiping with an expression of asking for credit.

Zhang Taiping looked at the bitten mangled rabbit a bit dumbfounded, patted its neck and said: "Good job, I'll reward you."

The little grizzly could understand Zhang Taiping's words, and immediately began to eat happily again, and swallowed a rabbit within two strokes.

Back home, Cai Xiaomei is also there.Thinking about what day it is today, I feel relieved. She didn't come back for the National Day. I heard that she went out to play with her classmates. Now it is natural to come back on August [-]th. In most people's minds, this day should be The whole family is reunited.

The happiest thing was the little girl, who threw herself into Cai Xiaomei's arms and asked crisply, "When did my aunt come back?"

"I just came back." Cai Xiaomei kissed Yaya's little cheek and said with a smile.

"Why didn't my aunt come back during the National Day holiday?"

"My aunt went to Mount Emei on vacation, so she didn't come back." Cai Xiaomei explained to Yaya.Then he smiled at Cai Yazhi and said, "I heard that a temple at the foot of Mount Emei is very effective in sending off the concubine. Sister, do you want to go and play with the elder brother sometime?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Cai Yazhi scolded with a smile.After finishing speaking, he glanced at Zhang Taiping, but his meaning was unclear.

"Auntie, do you eat hawthorn?" Yaya said to Cai Xiaomei.

"Have you picked hawthorns?" Cai Xiaomei said, "Well, it's almost ripe by this time. Where are they?"

Zhang Taiping handed the basket in his hand to everyone, everyone squeezed two and tasted it, all of them frowned and grinned sourly.

"What are you eating? Why do they all have this expression?" Zhang Xiuxiu came in from the outside and asked.Next to him was Shen Qingfeng holding Xiao Yu'er, what was rare was that he didn't run around outside today, but came back early to accompany Xiao Yu'er.

Yaya and Tiantian are very sympathetic to Xiao Yuer, so if there is any delicious and fun food, they will always share it with Xiao Yuer without hesitation. When they see them coming in, they love to pass the hawthorn basket to them.

Although Shen Qingfeng seemed to have lived here for a long time, but most of the time he was busy outside, and he didn't have many opportunities to get in touch with people, so he didn't want to get acquainted, so he just nodded his head as a greeting.

While everyone was still talking, Wukong had already squatted at the door with a bowl and started eating.This guy ate too much hawthorn in the morning, and his stomach must have been flattened by hunger. When everyone was talking in the yard, he ran in and scooped a bowl of rice for himself.

Two people were missing during lunch.

Zhang Taiping asked: "Where is Mu Hongyu?"

"Her sister came to pick her up in the morning, and she will go back for a reunion, and will send her back in two days." Cai Yazhi said.

After lunch, Cai Yazhi put the wild chrysanthemums picked by her group in the morning in a dustpan and let Zhang Taiping put them on the eaves to dry.Congzhong chose some good quality tea to drink at night, not to say that this is better than other teas in the house, but this is just a custom.

As if the little animals also knew that August [-]th was a reunion day, Xiao Zi and the big-tailed squirrel, who had not been seen for many days, jumped down from the mountain in the afternoon.These two little things, one purple and one red, are all shiny and shiny, very cute.

The little squirrel was okay, he was gentler and could be hugged and petted, but Xiao Zi was extremely vigilant, and would not let anyone get close except Zhang Taiping and Ye Ling.

As the night approached, the house suddenly became lively, not only the chirping of Xiaoxi, but also the talking of a few parrots.

Several small parrots that have grown up stand in front of the TV, and if they say a word in the TV, they all say a word in unison, which can be regarded as a spectacle in the house.
