The Peach Blossom Village of the Cat Boss

Chapter 45

Vetch, also known as horse bean grass.

Every spring, in the fields in the countryside, this thing grows everywhere.

When Wang Tianyang and the others were young, they didn't have as many toys as the children in the city.

If you want to play with toys, you have to figure out your own way.

Vets make whistles, tree branches make slingshots, chicken feathers make shuttlecocks, bamboos make fishing rods, and wine boxes make lanterns.

After counting like this, he suddenly felt that his childhood seemed quite colorful.

There are all kinds of novelty toys, which are no less than those of children in the city.

There are many things that they probably have never seen before.

What's more, he can still play with those toys when he grows up, but the children in the city may not have the opportunity to understand the joy of his childhood.

Wang Tianyang excitedly tore a few pods and made them on the spot.

In his memory, Brother Huzi loved to play this thing the most, and he played it very smoothly.

"I remember you used to be able to use this little pod to play a whole song by Kojiro."

"And you can blow it not only with bean pods, but also by picking a leaf on the side of the road."

At that time, Brother Huzi was simply something he and his friends looked up to.

As childhood memories came to mind, Wang Tianyang suddenly slowed down and looked back at Brother Huzi.

Brother Huzi looked dazed, his lips twitched a few times.

It is not difficult to make a whistle out of vetch.

You only need to cut the vetch from the back, remove the middle fruit, cut it off at a distance of 2.5-3mm from the pod, and then use the tip of the pod to put it together in your mouth and you can blow it.

Wang Tianyang searched the memory of his childhood, and whistled in a manner.

During the process, Niuniu kept her big round eyes open and looked at him curiously.

She grew up with Wang Hu in the provincial capital, and only occasionally went back to the countryside. She had never seen many strange gadgets.

"Look at Uncle playing a song for you!"

Wang Tianyang couldn't help being proud, and showed off to Niu Niu with great interest.

He put the finished vetch whistle into his mouth, took a breath, and blew vigorously.

"puff"

I don't know which link was wrong, but the whistle he made actually made a fart sound, which didn't match the clear sound in my memory at all.

Niuniu covered her mouth and giggled, and Wang Tianyang scratched his head in embarrassment.

Made another whistle, still failed.

He was a little confused for a moment.

Wang Hu on the side swayed, his brows twisted into twists.

Niuniu's big eyes are also full of disappointment:
"Can't it blow?"

Wang Tianyang touched her head, then turned to look at Wang Hu:
"Brother Huzi, do you still remember how to make a whistle? Why can't my whistle make a sound?"

From the moment he was making the whistle, he saw Wang Hu's side from the corner of his eye, and there was a lot of movement.

When Brother Huzi was a child, he loved playing with this kind of gadgets the most.

He knew everything from using vetch pods for whistles to chopping bamboo for booms.

Seeing Wang Tianyang clumsy for a long time without making a sound, Wang Hu scratched his head somewhat.

Wang Tianyang felt that the time had come, so he threw the ball over at the right time.

Seeing that Wang Hu was stunned and his footsteps stagnated, Wang Tianyang gently pushed Niuniu again.

Niu Niu immediately rushed over, hugged Wang Hu's raised leg, raised her head and looked at him eagerly:
"Dad. I want to play whistle."

Wang Hu's feet that seemed to be driven into nails finally moved.

He strode to the ditch, pulled two small vetch, pointed to the green-black pod, and showed them:
"This kind is too old to blow."

Then, he pinched off a third of the tender pod, picked out all the seeds inside, and put it in his mouth.

His voice was a little slurred:

"When blowing, you can't just hold the tip, but hold a little more"

"you see"

As he spoke, he puffed up his cheeks and blew hard.
"Bah~"

A crisp, loud sound spread from the whistle immediately.

"Using the tongue to control the breath can also change the whistle sound and blow out different tunes."

Wang Hu demonstrated while speaking, changing several tones.

Niuniu was very excited to watch, she looked left for a while, then looked again, and circled around her father.

A burst of clear, floating in the fields.

This pure natural tone seems to have a wilderness atmosphere.

It is integrated with the surrounding rural scenery, making people feel that such a tune is the voice of nature itself.

Finally, speak.
Wang Tianyang looked at Wang Hu with gratified eyes.

Wang Hu, who was playing with the wild pea whistle seriously, regained his eyesight.

No longer as dumb as before.

Suddenly, Wang Tianyang seemed to see Brother Huzi when he was a child.

At that time, he liked to play with these gadgets very much, and always spent a lot of time studying these things, so the "toys" he made were always better than what they made.

"Brother Huzi, play me a song by Xiao Erlang, I haven't listened to it for a long time."

Wang Tianyang looked at Wang Hu, who was in his thirties and already had a few gray hairs, and said softly.

In fact, when he saw Wang Hu a few days ago, he always felt that this person was unfamiliar, which made him a little at a loss.

I still doubt in my heart, is the world after waking up, brother Huzi different from before?

But now, Wang Hu finally coincides with the appearance in his memory.

With nostalgia for the past, he made the request.

Unexpectedly, Wang Hu's brows became twisted again:
"What tune is Xiao Erlang? Did I play it when I was a child?"

Wang Tianyang froze for a moment before reacting.

In this world now, all kinds of familiar music, movies, and poetry are different from before.

It is estimated that Xiao Erlang's song does not exist in this world.

"Did I remember it wrong? Haha, let me teach you, the tone is very simple."

Wang Tianyang gave a dry laugh twice in embarrassment, and hummed the nursery rhyme very naturally.

"Xiao Erlang,

Carrying that schoolbag into school,

Not afraid of the sun or the wind and rain,
I'm afraid the gentleman would call me lazy and uneducated,
I have no face to see my parents~”

The tune of this nursery rhyme is really simple.

It is catchy to sing and easy to learn.

Every few minutes after Wang Tianyang sang, Wang Hu fumbled and blew the whistle to make a rough idea.

He continued to try again, and soon followed Wang Tianyang's singing, and began to blow smoothly.

"Not bad, Brother Huzi!"

Two adults and one child played by the ditch for a while, Wang Tianyang showed surprise expressions from time to time, and praised Wang Hu.

After a while, Wang Tianyang took them to another place.

Drilling into the mountains for a while, climbing up the trees for a while, I got carried away with it.

During this period, Wang Hu was not willing to throw away the wild pea pods, and taught Niu Niu to play the song Xiao Erlang while walking.

If you get tired of playing this song, try another one.

The sound of the whistle rang from noon to sunset in the afternoon, and they never got tired of it.

When the sun set and the air became slightly cooler, Wang Hu suddenly reacted.

Didn't he come out this trip to help Tianyang?

Played all day today, although Niuniu and he are very happy.

But as for the business, he didn't do anything!

Thinking of this, his mood dropped instantly:
"Tianyang, you asked me to help today, is it just to coax me out?"
