Fragrant spring

No.20 Two unlucky eggs

Lin Hua helped herd the cows again today, not because he became lighter, but because his parents and sister were doing the work in the field, and he didn't want to do it.The work in the field has to be done from morning to night, and it has to be exposed to the sun, so he came to help look after the cattle.Seeing the cattle is comfortable, the cattle are driven out at ten o'clock, leisurely, and the cattle can be driven back at three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

Lin Hua's little follower, Mu De, was also herding the cattle. Mu De accompanied Lin Hua to watch the cattle. His family does not want to watch the cattle today.They drove the cattle to a wasteland full of weeds, and then found a shady place to rest.

Watching cattle is comfortable, but boring.You can't just stare at the cow's butt all day long. If that's the case, Lin Hua would rather go to work. Since he chose to watch the cow, he must have thought of a lot of entertainment.Lin Hua said to Mu De: "Let's go to Gou Gua to fight and see who loses. Whoever loses will carry the winner home at night."

Mu De was originally here to accompany Lin Hua, so of course he wanted to play this game, so he nodded naively and said: "Okay, if you lose, you have to recite me."

"I'm willing to bet and admit defeat, am I a cheater?" Lin Hua said righteously, he never thought of losing at all, how could he beat Lin Hua just because of Mu De's stupidity.No matter how big the hook he found was, Lin Hua would have a way to deal with him. The reason why Lin Hua hooked up with Mu De was because it was too boring.

"That's good." Mu De smirked.

The two went to the weeds at the foot of the mountain to look for hooks. The so-called hooks were actually a kind of thrifty weed.This grass is a bit like bamboo, but not as big and hard as bamboo.Fold off each section of this kind of grass to form a small hook. Use the hooks to hook each other, and then pull hard to see whose hook splits first, and whoever splits first will be the one. lose.

Mu De drilled left and right, in and out of the grass.Not long after, he grabbed a handful of hooks and hung them up, shouting loudly: "Brother Huazi, have you found it? I've found it."

Lin Hua had already found them, but he only found a dozen or so. The hooks he broke off were both old and big, and the small ones were useless.He was lying in a patch of grass that was overwhelmed by him.Surrounded by lush weeds, he is like a little bird in this big nest.He replied to Mude: "Come here, come to me and fight."

Mu De got into Lin Hua's "nest" like a brave wild boar, held up a catchable hook and said with a smirk: "I have found so many, I must defeat you."

"Don't talk nonsense, come on." Lin Hua picked up a hook and urged Mu De to fight, and Mu De quickly took out the hook in his hand to fight Lin Hua.Lin Hua is a young man in his twenties, and even hooks up with a half-year-old. Fortunately, he figured it out.

From time to time, the two of them laughed in the grass, and Mu De's hooks were all defeated in a short while.Lin Hua felt that it was boring, and it was only interesting to play games with similar people.Mu De's vulnerable opponent made Lin Hua more and more bored as he played. His original intention was not to ask Mu De to carry him back, but just to relieve the boredom, but after playing, he became even more bored.

Lin Hua asked Mu De to go out to see if the cow was still grazing outside. Mu De got out of the "nest" and came back after a while and told Lin Hua that the cow was grazing outside and did not run far.Lin Hua simply slept with Mu De in the "nest".

When they woke up, they were a little hungry.Lin Hua remembered that there were people growing peanuts in the field across the river.At this time, the peanuts are almost ready to be harvested, and the fruits are ready to eat.He patted Mu De: "Go, go over there and grab some peanuts to fill your stomach."

Mu De always listened to Lin Hua's words. He sat up with a grunt, wiped the saliva that flowed out from his sleep just now, and said excitedly: "Okay, okay." Sometimes, when I heard that there was something to eat, my stomach would growl in coordination.

Lin Hua led Mu De out of the comfortable grass nest. The cattle were wagging their tireless tails and eating the fresh green grass leisurely.Lin Hua and Mu De waded across the cool river and came to a green paddy field.The seedlings are growing very well, and they are about to bloom and grow ears.There are many peanuts and some palace beans planted in the sand beside the rice fields.

Lin Hua pulled out a peanut, and the peanut seedlings were already full of fruits.Like a starving ghost, Mu De tore off the dirt-covered peanuts, wiped them with his clothes, peeled them off and ate them.

After Lin Hua ate a few, he opened Mu De's hand and shouted, "Don't eat it."

Mu De was full of doubts: "What's the matter, Brother Hua Zi?"

"It's not good to eat raw, wait for the diarrhea, then cook it and eat it." Lin Hua said.

"Okay, okay." Together with Lin Hua, this is what Mu De said most.

"Take off your clothes and wrap the peanuts outside to burn." Lin Hua was reluctant to take off his own clothes, and Mude would of course take off his clothes.

Mu De didn't care, and immediately took off his clothes and spread them on the ground.Lin Hua pulled out a few more peanuts, and the two of them picked the peanut kernels and threw them on their clothes, and Lin Hua went to pick some palace beans.With a bag full of peanuts and palace beans, Mude carried him out of the field and came to a shady place.

Lin Hua instructed Mu De to find clods and firewood, while he built a kiln with clods.A kiln is to build up clods of soil like a blockhouse, and then burn a fire inside.After the fire turned the soil red, Lin Hua pulled out the remaining fire and charcoal from the bunker.Then an opening was made on the top of the bunker, and peanuts and palace beans were poured into the bunker.Then the bunker was overturned to cover the peanuts and palace beans, and some fresh soil was buried on top.The food baked in this way has not been directly burned, but it has a burnt aroma when eaten, and it also has the fragrance of earth, which has a unique flavor.

After waiting for ten minutes, Lin Hua estimated that the peanuts would be cooked.So He Mude scraped the soil away, and the peanuts and palace beans inside were steaming.Lin Hua took out a peanut and peeled it into his mouth. The peanut kernels were just ripe and tasted sweet and refreshing.The Gongdou is a bit overcooked, the beans are a little burnt, but this way it is fragrant and crunchy.

Mu De ate with great relish, and asked Lin Hua while eating: "Brother Hua Zi, will you still watch the cattle tomorrow? I will come and watch with you." Together with Lin Hua, we can eat and play together, Mu De is happy Incredibly.

"Look, tomorrow we will all come in aluminum pots and cook wild vegetables." Lin Hua has already planned how to play tomorrow.

"Okay, okay." Mu De said flatteringly again.

The two of them swept away all the peanuts and palace beans in a blockhouse. Lin Hua touched his full stomach, and leaned lazily against a piece of dead wood. Are you outside?"

"Okay." Mu De replied and walked out.After a while he ran back out of breath and shouted loudly: "Brother Huazi, it's not good, the cow has eaten the seedlings."

When Lin Hua heard this, he immediately jumped up as if he was electrocuted.He ran across the river and came to the rice field.The three cattle in his family were chewing the seedlings in the green rice fields. The seedlings were eaten and trampled, and a large piece of the seedlings fell in all directions.Lin Hua secretly groaned inwardly, this time he has to accompany others, this is the paddy field of Shaowang's family.Shaowang's mother is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she will definitely beat him hard.

Lin Hua hurriedly drove the cattle out with Mu De, and went home anxiously.The matter of asking Mu De to carry him has long been forgotten, and all he thinks about is how to face the storm at night.

When they got home, Lin Hua's parents and Lin Fen hadn't come back yet.Lin Hua was fidgeting, as if today was so long that he wanted to kick the sun from the sky to the side of the mountain.At the same time, he was afraid that night would come, to be precise, he was afraid that things would come out through the window.

Before Lin Hua could wait for his parents to come back, Shaowang and Shaowang's mother came first.Shaowang's mother sat on the ground as soon as she arrived, slapped her thighs with her hands, shook her head and cried, "Oh my mother, your cows have eaten the good seedlings, how can my three people's rations be enough? , What do you think should be done, you have to give me an explanation.” Shaowang’s mother heard that the people who came back from work told her that the seedlings had been eaten by cattle, so she asked Shaowang to go out and find out who was grazing the cattle there.After knowing that it was Lin Hua, the mother and son came to Lin Hua's house in a hurry.

Lin Hua sat silently on the door pier, letting Shaowang's mother make trouble.He knew that Shaowang's mother wanted compensation, but he was not a parent at home, so he had to wait until his parents came back to discuss compensation with Shaowang's mother.

The sound of Shaowang's mother's spitting quickly attracted the villagers' onlookers.Shaowang walked around and found that Lin Hua's family hadn't come back, so he went to his mother and told her.Shaowang's mother stood up with a grunt, and patted the dust off her buttocks.He said to the surrounding villagers and also to Lin Hua: "I will tell the person in charge when he comes back that this matter is serious." After speaking, he found a place and sat up.

The surrounding villagers laughed.Shaowang waved to everyone and shouted: "Everyone, don't laugh, Huazi's cows ate my seedlings, so they should be compensated, right? My family has two and a half fields..."

While Shaowang was still gaining sympathy, Lin Hua's parents came back carrying firewood, and the crowd immediately moved out of the way.

Lin Fen walked at the back, she wondered why there were so many people in the house?When she saw Lin Hua sitting on the door pier with his head shrugged, she knew that her younger brother must have caused trouble again.Sure enough, as soon as his father put down the firewood, Shaowang came up and grabbed him.He spit all over the place and said that Lin Hua herded cattle instead of watching cattle, and ate up all the seedlings in her family, and wanted to give her a lot of explanations.

Lin Hua's father could only admit that he was unlucky, who made his boy so lazy?Compensating others is a matter of course.

Finally, after Shaowang and Shaowang's mother gave examples of how much rice the two and a half fields had produced in previous years, they reached a compensation amount of three dan dry rice.

Shaowang and his mother went back happily, and Lin Hua also waited for his most uncomfortable moment. It goes without saying that the whole family took turns scolding him...
