The Peach Blossom Village of the Cat Boss

Chapter 65

For a long time, the theme of the video that Wang Tianyang wants to convey to the audience is the relentless pursuit of "a world of great harmony".

He is very clear that Xanadu does not exist above this world.

It's just a beautiful imagination.

In the depiction of Peach Blossom Spring, in a place full of peach blossoms and fallen flowers, there lived a group of people who had nothing to contend with.

They are enthusiastic and simple, and they have no malicious intentions when facing an outsider of unknown origin like the "Wuling people", but set up wine and kill chickens for food.

Both old people and children can enjoy themselves, without fighting or obsession with rights, and just live a simple but beautiful life like this.

In the real world, no such place exists.

There are beautiful villages everywhere in Huaxia.

But the men, women and children depicted in Peach Blossom Spring are becoming less and less common in today's world.

There are, but not so many, even if there are so many, it is difficult to get together in one place.

Even if they got together in one place, it was impossible for them to avoid the turmoil of the outside world.

Xanadu once had another name in the far west: "Utopia".

Utopia is a beautiful society where everyone is equal, free from oppression, and the most ideal society in human consciousness.

However, it is also generally considered to be a fantasy world, a world that cannot exist in reality.

In history, many races have tried to create such a utopia in the past, but all of them failed in the end.

The reason is inseparable from the inherent inferiority of human beings.

Take Wang Tianyang's hometown, Taohua Village as an example, don't those amiable uncles and aunts never suffer?

Can his father and mother be called simple and unselfish?
Wang Tianyang doesn't think so.

He very much agrees that Utopia is a fantasy world, this reality.

Perhaps, in the future, as people's moral quality continues to improve.

Later people will eventually explore the way to create this ideal world.

But now, Wang Tianyang doesn't think he has the ability to achieve such an ambitious goal.

Moreover, the time is not ripe enough at this moment.

Wang Tianyang feels that what he has to do now is to show everyone the paradise described by Tao Yuanming.

To wake up the people in this world and let them take a look at this world that only exists in ideals.

Of course, in his videos, there must be some beautification, which is inevitable and a stage that must be experienced.

After all, there is no real paradise in this world now.

However, due to the limited volume of short videos, he couldn't throw all the information to the audience in one go.

I can only divide the imagination of Xanadu and photograph it bit by bit.

The topic of the video he is going to shoot today is very simple, which can be summed up in six words.

That is "set wine and kill chickens for food".

The owner's house is in a simple and beautiful small village, warmly receiving friends from afar.
This is actually the main story line of the popular variety show "Longing for Life".

It's such a simple story, but the audience never tires of it, offering super high ratings over and over again.

And Li Ziqi's long-standing expression of indifference to the world has already been written down in Taohuayuan Ji.

Say one thousand, say ten thousand.

In fact, the Chinese people's pursuit of an ideal life has never changed. Thousands of years later, it just changed its form and appeared in front of everyone in another way.

After Wang Tianyang set up the camera, he began to seriously prepare for the reception.

He went to the chicken coop with his old lady, chased the chickens around, and the chicken feathers flew everywhere.

Finally, they caught an old hen who was unlucky.

"This chicken can still lay eggs, what a pity."

The old woman held a knife in one hand and a chicken wing in the other, with regret on her face.

"Oh, everything is God's will."

Wang Tianyang pretended to sigh and blocked the camera.

After killing the chicken and scalding it with boiling water, the old lady plucked it and put it in a crock, adding wolfberry, red dates, green onion and ginger, and planned to make a pot of chicken soup.

It's a slow fire, and it's okay to stay up until dark.

The chicken soup that is slowly brewed in this way will be more delicious.

After stewing an old hen, Wang Tianyang went to the fat aunt's house in the village.

Her family has contracted a fish pond. Anyone in the village who wants to eat fish can just buy it directly from her house.

After giving the money, the fat aunt will go to the pond to catch the fish in person, and even provide on-site killing and on-site processing services.

The fish is sold to the villagers, and the price is one or two yuan cheaper than outside.

She is not happy when the villagers want to give more.

Fat aunt always said that her man had an accident in other places in the early years, and it was the villagers who helped her family's orphans and widows, and came all the way.

She is repaying her kindness!
The atmosphere of Taohua Village has always been like this. Although everyone has some selfish intentions, if something really happens, everyone will always help.

Every household in the village has more or less received favors from other households.

When Wang Tianyang went to Aunt Fat's house and said, Aunt Fat was about to go down to the pond with the net.

He quickly stopped the fat aunt:
"Auntie, I want a fish, so there's no need for such a big fight!"

"If you have extra at home, you can just give me one."

Aunt Fat smiled and said:

"Anyway, I'm planning to catch some fish and sell them in the town, so let's go."

Wang Tianyang was surprised:
"Didn't you go there two days ago?"

The town that Aunt Fatty mentioned was not their county seat, but a town in the next county called Yangzhai.

Although it is not very rich there, it is much more lively than their place.

The town next door is naturally farther away from Taohua Village, but there are many people buying fish there, so she still sells fish there every time.

However, because the distance is too far, she will not catch every episode.

Hearing Wang Tianyang's doubts, Fat Aunt's face was beaming:
"I don't know what's going on. Recently, some people always say that my fish is better than other people's. As soon as I passed by, it was sold out very quickly! Someone started snatching it up two days ago, and it was a mess. No one cares about it. In the end, I can’t stand it anymore. I’m not willing to sell to those who let them line up, those who don’t line up and have no quality.”

Although the topic of Fat Aunt gradually went off track, Wang Tianyang still keenly captured the key words.

Her family's fish is very popular recently.

The guest said that her fish tastes better than others!

Wang Tianyang thought of the thick fog some time ago, and suddenly had a guess in his mind.

It seems that this fog affects not only the peaches in the village.

"so good"

Seeing Aunt Fat's red face, Wang Tianyang couldn't help sighing.

When he was going to college, Aunt Fat personally ran to his house to send money.

Although the money was not much, it wasn't long after her man's accident happened at that time, and the family was also very difficult.

It is very affectionate to be able to come up with a dozen or 20 yuan.

My mother has been talking about this matter at home for several years!
Auntie Fat, although she likes to join in the fun and gossip, she is also very warm-hearted and will repay her kindness.

Moreover, she is a widow, she is not weak at all, and she works harder than a man.

Seeing that her fish pond business is booming, Wang Tianyang is really happy for her from the bottom of his heart.

For the villagers, making money is the biggest thing!What is it to be a little bit tired?
He didn't persuade the fat aunt any more, and followed her all the way to the fish pond.
