Shanwa Small Rich Farmers

After returning to the village, although I only left for two or three days, I still feel that the village is different from when I left. I want to talk about it in my heart but I don’t know how to say it. I always feel like this when I left. I came back. It's still the same at times, but when people suddenly turn their heads and sweep around, they feel as if it's different again.

   "Uncle Xu!"

   "Uncle!"

  From the entrance of the village to my door, people kept saying hello to me along the way, and Wen Nu also pressed the car window and kept nodding to them.

When I got to the door and got out of the car, Wen Xu remembered why she felt different. The smiles on the faces of the villagers were different, not just smiles, everyone's temperament and conversation were also slowly changing. All kinds of rules and regulations not only restrict them, but also change their mental outlook.

   After the car stopped, Wen Xu knew that Yan Dong had arrived, not because of anything else, but because this guy's big Ben was sticking to his Lu Xun's side.

  Wen Xu got off the car here, and Dongliang immediately got out of the yard wagging his tail, circling around Wen Xu, expressing his joy for his master's return.

Stretching out his hand to gently caress Dongliang's head twice, Wen Xu raised his foot and walked back to his own courtyard, saw the courtyard door was wide open, and there was no one inside, and couldn't find Yan Dong, so Wen Xu raised his foot towards Dongliang. Grandpa Chi walked over to the courtyard of Mr. Chi's house.

   Before reaching the door, a burst of cheerful laughter was heard.

  While waiting for Wen Xu to stand at the gate of the small courtyard, he saw Yan Dong was eating with Mr. Chi and an old man in his sixties.

  The whole scene is very stylish, a bit free and easy, with a bit of pastoral style.

  The small couch with a square meter of several meters in the courtyard is now the main venue for banquets, and the gauze tents erected at the four corners also block the sunlight, adding some artistic conception to the small courtyard. A small square table with short legs was placed on a small couch, and four people sat cross-legged or lying on their sides, each with a glass of wine in front of them, having a pleasant conversation.

  The dishes served with wine are also extremely simple, one boiled peanuts, one fried broad beans, one plate of eggs with green peppers, braised fish in braised sauce, and another plate of tomatoes mixed with sugar. A few simple dishes made the faces of the four people drink red, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

  Once Mr. Chi looked up and saw the door where Wen Xu was standing, he immediately smiled and waved to Wen Xu: "Wen Xu is back, sit down, sit down and have a drink!"

   Teacher Ma saw Wen Xu coming, and immediately stood up, turned around, brought a pair of chopsticks, and placed a small cup on the edge of the table. At the same time, Mr. Chi had already placed a round cushion on the couch, and patted on the round cushion, indicating that Wen Nu would sit here.

  Wen Xu was not polite, walked to the side of the couch with a smile, looked at Yan Dong while taking off his shoes and said: "You kid came here without saying a word, why are you willing to come so soon?"

   Yan Dong seems to have been resurrected with full blood now. Mr. Yan, who hadn't come to Wenjia Village for a long time to establish a good relationship with these 'suppliers', suddenly returned to his working state in his heyday.

Hearing what Wen Xu said, Yan Dong naturally knew what he was referring to, so he said with a smile: "At first glance, you are an inexperienced novice, this little girl can't always be nice to her, delicacies from mountains and seas are sometimes boring. In love In the middle, you have to leave from time to time to let her feel the difference between having you and not having you. Isn’t there a saying that leaving is for the next reunion. After going back and forth several times, it won’t take long to add some tricks. The children of the family have the hope of being soy sauce in a few years."

   "Don't play with fire!"

   In other words, Wen Xu took off his shoes and sat on the mat.

  After sitting down, Wen Xu looked at the old man who was sitting opposite her, and opened her mouth to ask, "Old man, what do you call it?"

   "This is my friend, Lao Lu crazy! Jia Changping, just call him Lao Jia!"

From Mr. Jia's point of view, if the background is to be stripped away and the scene of the Republic of China is matched, this man must be a standard figure of a master of the Republic of China: a thin figure, wearing a pair of black-framed round glasses on his face, The funniest thing is that he still wears a parted hair that is not too obvious. The only thing missing is that old-fashioned long robe.

   "Mr. Jia, this is the first time we've met. I'd like to toast you two glasses." Hearing Mr. Chi's introduction, Wen Wen immediately picked up the wine in front of him.

  Grandpa Jia raised his glass with a smile: "Xiao Wen, I'm not good at drinking, so let's do it when everyone understands it!"

   After speaking, he put the wine glass to his mouth and lightly touched his lips.

Wen Xu doesn't have the habit of persuading people to drink. He does have them in severe winter, but he won't bring them to such occasions. Although everyone is on the same level, but the ages of the two old men are here, and they have to be honest when they shouldn't be fooling around. .

   If you want to say that there is no way to make friends in the same generation, if Wen Xu rushes to call Old Master Chi, Grandpa Chi, how will the whole village deal with itself? Wen Shigui and Wen Shida, who are in their sixties or even in their seventies, are also called Grandpa Chi?

"Have you changed your girlfriend again? I told you, don't be too picky. Finding someone you like and living an honest life is better than anything else!" Teacher Ma is worthy of being a teacher, and he took the opportunity to explain the philosophy of life to Yan Dong What, I want to correct Yan Dong's thinking.

If it was put in the past, Yan Dong would definitely feel a little unhappy, but now that he is reborn from illness, Yan Dong nodded in agreement: "What Teacher Ma said is true, but this is not a simple girlfriend, I It's a girlfriend who is rushing to get married!"

   "That's good, that's good!"

  Hearing what Yan Dong said, Teacher Ma kept nodding his head.

"What about you, don't waste yourself so much with Xiaozhuo, get married quickly, and enjoy life when the child grows up, let me tell you warmly, getting married late is not a good thing" Mr. Ma said Seeing Yan Dong's political qualifications, he also brought warmth.

  Wen Xu said with a smile: "I only have a few big tile-roofed houses here. Where can I find a wife now? Aren't I going to start building a house now?"

   "It's going to be built?" Mr. Chi asked happily when he heard that.

  Wen Xu nodded: "I'm waiting to return my things tomorrow, and then go to the west of the village to find a homestay to live in first, and then move back to live when the house here is ready."

   "So fast?" Yan Dong asked.

   "What's the matter, I'm talking about how long it's been going on here." It's finally time to build a house, and Wen Xu is also very happy, anyway, building a new house is a happy event.

"congratulations!"

  By using this excuse, everyone took turns to have a few drinks with Wen Xu.

  Small wine like this is commonly called vegetable wine. For alcoholics, drinking vegetable wine is despised, but Wen Xu likes this kind of atmosphere the most. Only those who drink lightly can see the fun.

"Wen Xu, this time I came to see you caught the giant turtle last time. There must be a male turtle with such a big female turtle, and there must be a population nearby. I talked to Lao Chi and prepared to wait. I followed my students to come, and then went into the mountain along the river to check the surrounding environment. To be honest, I really don’t know if I don’t come this time. It turns out that Linjiang and your Wenjia Village are such a beautiful place , and such a well-preserved mountain forest," Mr. Jia said excitedly.

"Oh!"

  Old Master Chi said: "Don't just yell and play, old man Jia wants you to show them the way and be a guide!"

   "I really can't do it!" Hearing this, Wen Xu quickly waved his hand and said.

  Master Jia looked at Master Chi with astonishment.

   "What's the matter, do you still want a guide fee?"

Wen Xu hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It's not that I don't want to be your guide, but that you have to walk along the river. I have never been too far upstream! There are too many branches in the river, and no one is capable unless you are an old hunter." Take you there, and then pat your chest and say to bring you back"

What Wen Xu didn't say was that after his own evil work, he didn't dare to go into the woods rashly, not to mention anything else, even the cliff that his goats climbed now has no thick vines on it. Tree vines, who knows what has become in the woods?

  As far as my level is concerned, if I go into the woods, I'll be squatting in the space at most, and I won't die from starvation or sleepiness. But bringing Mr. Jia and his students together, this is a lot of lives, Wen Xu is not a foolish and bold without a brain, there is still some self-knowledge in this.

After finishing speaking, he looked at Mr. Jia seriously and said: "Mr. Jia, if I have been there, I will definitely not refuse, but I have never been there at all, and I lack the life experience of Ye Linzi. You go in but you can't get out."

Seeing Wen Xu's serious face, and what he said made sense, Mr. Jia also nodded, agreed and said: "I agree with you, this time we don't know how far we have to go here, and I heard that there are several rivers in the river. bifurcation"

   "There are three big ones, but I heard from the old man that in the past, no matter which river you followed, you could reach the largest lake in the mountains, Wu (pronounce the last sound), but I have never been there," Wen Wen said.

Mr. Jia said: "I know a little bit about this. The group of people from the Geographical Society once conducted a census of the environment here, but the so-called Weima Lake was actually not very big at that time, and it couldn't be called a lake anymore. , They waited for the conclusion that it was only one-fifteenth of the high water period. Even in the high water period, in fact, it was a lake, and most of the places were swamps. However, the ecological damage was too great at that time. I haven't organized a second time here, as for what it will become now, it's really hard to say... ".

  As soon as I heard that this old man had done his homework in the early stage, he was indeed a figure of the master level, and he had to do some "preparation" before working.

   "Then who do you think is the most suitable in the village?" After Mr. Jia finished talking, he turned his gaze to Wen Xu again.

Wen Xu thought for a while and shook his head: "There is really no one in our village that is suitable. The third brother could go there before, but now his body can't bear such a trek through mountains and rivers. It's no problem for you to wander around, but once Going in, the side of the river twists and turns, and the old guide can't turn it out at all."

   "Then help me find out!" Mr. Chi said.

"You can ask my second brother about this matter. He knows all about the people in this area. To be honest, he went to school before, and his understanding of the local customs and customs is about the same as that of children. These questions You can only find out if you ask these old people. If it is ten or eight years later, it may be difficult to find a guide to enter the mountain. Now that young people are all going to big cities, why would they go into old forests?"

  Mr. Jia sighed after hearing this, nodded and said, "Just find someone!"

  In the tide of the economy, there is always a lack of people to do things that don't make money. Those who are sitting here can understand it, but it is inevitable to feel a little bit emotional.

   In this way, everyone ate and chatted together until the evening, when Wen Xu and Yan Dong got off the couch, left the old man's house with their shoes on, and returned to Wen Xu's small courtyard.

Yan Dong came out of the shower, wiped his head with a bath towel, and walked to his room. Just as he reached the door, he turned his head and saw Wen Xu still standing in the courtyard, touching the house wall with his hands, but he didn't know what to say, so he turned around. When he reached the door, he looked at Wen Xu.

   "What's the matter, are you reluctant?"

   "In my memory, I spent more than half of the time accompanying this yard, and suddenly said that it was going to be demolished, and I still feel a little bit reluctant." Wen Xin nodded and said.

  He reached out and touched a brick, and on that brick was vaguely painted a strange thing that was neither a bird nor an insect. Wen Xu remembered that this was his masterpiece when he watched his grandfather write Spring Festival couplets and played with a brush, and it was hard to see it after the wind and rain.

   I guess this is the trace of the years!
