My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 144 Big Child

  The food is ready and brought to the table, and they are told to eat without coming.

  The little girl didn't say anything. She was having fun with the little wild boar and the little rabbit. Where did she want to eat, Wang Susu called her, she shook her head and said she was not hungry, and pitifully begged this beautiful and gentle aunt to let her hold her for a while.

The little fat man played more, and after discovering the vegetable cellar in the courtyard, he didn't go there for a long time. After obtaining Chen Ling's consent, he removed the reeds and other debris covered on it, and then ran around, going to the vegetable cellar. Move things in the cellar.

  Wang Zhenzhen saw that he was sweating profusely, so he took the little dolls and built him a small ladder inside.

  After he climbed down, he didn't want to come up. He hugged the two little piglets and hummed like a pig. When he was excited, he crawled around with the little wild boar, and he didn't care that he was covered in dirt.

  Liu Yinhuan couldn't help but blamed him when he saw his son was dirty and asked him to come up for dinner.

   He immediately pouted and shouted angrily: "Bad mother, I'm not leaving today, I'm going to sleep with the piglet in it."

   This time Liu Yinhuan was also made to cry and laugh, very helpless.

   turned around and asked Liang Yuemin to find a way to coax his son up, but Liang Yuemin said, "The children are rarely happy, isn't that a good thing?"

   Hearing this, Liang Hongyu and his wife laughed and agreed.

   Liu Yinhuan was helpless immediately.

   "The country is good, let Xiaoming and Xiaoli play here for a few more days, and go to the bad troubles of this suit."

  Liang Hongyu sighed, talking about some things at home now, and also said that in the capital and in the city, I feel that this person is more and more indifferent.

It is true that the children in the city now know less and less about the countryside. Just like these two little guys today, they are full of curiosity about everything. They look east and west, and when they see the well in the courtyard, they have to flush it. It was very interesting to hear the echoes coming from the well repeatedly.

   Actually not only children.

  The adults are not much better either.

   Just because there is more crayfish on the table today.

   It’s only 1995. The practice of crayfish has not been popularized yet, so I don’t even know that it can be eaten.

   Even Liang Yuemin frowned a little when he saw it so well-informed.

   Liu Yinhuan not to mention.

   secretly planned to cook the food later and eat other dishes. She grew up in Changle Township, and she had never heard of such shrimp in her hometown.

   Even though her parents-in-law said it was delicious, she was still skeptical.

   But after Chen Ling made it, the two of them forgot all their concerns and kept secretly swallowing.

   The scent of the crayfish was too strong, and the two of them only felt that the strange scent penetrated into their stomachs down their noses and hooked out all the gluttons.

   Peel off one, put it in your mouth, the mouth is full of fresh, spicy and refreshing taste, you can't stop eating it at all.

   Then there are fried bacon with garlic sprouts, roasted crucian carp, and scrambled duck eggs with fresh chopped green onion. All of them are home-cooked dishes, but each one has a different taste, which makes you appetizing.

   Liang Yuemin and Liu Yinhuan have never been to the countryside.

   But this is the first time I have eaten such a delicious farm meal.

  The two of them didn't care about their image at all, their mouths were full, and the corners of their mouths were full of oil.

   kept praising Chen Ling.

   made Liang Hongyu and his wife smile, and gave their son a smug look.

   seems to be saying that your mother brought you over to recognize this brother, isn't it in vain?

   Maybe they are too delicious.

   Wang Zhenzhen and Liu Ni'er, who were embarrassed to come forward because of their recognition of their birth, couldn't help being greedy, so they all gathered around.

  Chen Ling and Wang Susu served them some of each dish, and they also used the crayfish soup to rinse the noodles for them.

   On the other hand, Fatty and his sister were still guarding Piggy and Rabbit, and they didn't care about it at all.

   After the little girl carried her little piggy down to the vegetable cellar, the little fat man still disliked it.

   "Little chestnut, let go of the little pig, it just pulled the cake, but it stinks, aren't you the most clean?"

   Little Fatty reminded with the little rabbit in his arms.

The little girl ignored him, touched the wild boar softly, stroked the pig's head down the butt, and wiped the little wild boar's **** with her other hand. As a result, the wild boar was nervous and anxious, humming. Screaming, he slammed his **** off and bit her.

   That's it, she didn't cry, she didn't get angry, she picked up the little wild boar and caressed it, and muttered in her mouth: "Baby pig..."

   The little fat man followed suit when he saw it, pulling the hind legs of a piglet, hugging him into his arms, touching and kissing.

  Wang Susu was afraid that they would be hungry, so she brought them two boiled eggs.

   Knowing that the two little guys couldn't wash their hands, they peeled off the eggshell and fed them to them.

   Forget about Liu Yinhuan now, and even Liang Hongyu was very embarrassed, so she stepped forward and even told them to take care of it, Wang Susu has been busy for a long time, and came to take care of the children, hurry up and rest.

   But in my heart, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law also liked such a gentle and virtuous woman very much.

   Especially Liu Yinhuan, who felt a lot closer.

   After they finished eating here, Chen Ling made tea for everyone. The tea was brought by Zhao Dahai. Although it was not particularly expensive tea, it was also fragrant because of the water. Liang Yuemin and his wife looked at each other, and they both thought that they might be in a good mood today, otherwise why would even a sip of tea taste better than their own?

   Savoring the thick and rich tea fragrance, Liang Yuemin talked about the events he had come to his home a few days ago.

  Chen Ling told him that it would be impossible today, because the grinding plate was not washed and the things to be ground were not prepared.

  If Liang Yuemin is okay tomorrow, he can come over tomorrow and help him grind the mill himself.

   "Okay, then we'll go to the fields this afternoon to do farm work for you."

   Liang Yuemin laughed loudly, and then asked Chen Ling to help them find straw hats and farm tools.

  Chen Ling also knew that they were just having fun.

   took out the straw hat and distributed it to the couple.

   Ready to go down with their family.

  The little dolls are not interested in this, even the two little guys.

   But knowing that the adults are going to go out is weird, they can't wait any longer, and they have to play with Wang Zhenzhen and Liu Nier.

   When Liu Yinhuan was helping to wash vegetables today, she was taught a lesson by her mother-in-law with a gun and a stick.

   I also feel that my own children are nothing to be squeamish.

   Let them play.

   It was only when I was going out that I was surprised to find that the team of these little boys was really spectacular.

   Because not only children, but also a large group of local dogs.

   Now, not to mention Liu Yinhuan, Liang Yuemin was also worried: "There are so many dogs, they can't play well, will they hurt the children?"

   "No, it's not that dogs on leashes don't bite people. Besides, basically, they run around with the little dolls every day, and they're used to it."

  Chen Ling explained it to him.

   This group of skin monkeys has always been large.

Nothing else. Dogs are always inseparable when they are crazy. Many dolls in the countryside are like this. The elders in the family don’t mind. Some dogs are smart and understand human nature, and they will protect the dolls to a certain extent. They are easy to find when eating or when it’s dark and not going home. Wherever there are dogs, there must be them not far away.

   After listening to Chen Ling's explanation, they were relieved.

   On the other hand, Qin Rongxian asked more questions: "Fugui, what about the two big dogs in the family, why haven't I seen them when I came to the house twice?"

   "Don't mention it, they've been wild recently. They get up early and go out, only to come back after dark. I don't know why they're making a fuss outside."

  Chen Ling shook his head and smiled helplessly.

   Actually, Heiwa and Xiaojin don’t need to be looked for. They have extremely keen senses of hearing and smell. As long as you shout, they will run home in a short time.

   But these two days he and Wang Susu are busy with the farm work in the field, and they don't care about them, just play as they like.

  Liang Hongyu said, "Don't secretly give birth to a puppy outside, right?"

  Cats and dogs, after giving birth to cubs outside the home, they really don’t like to go home.

   "No, they're too small."

  Chen Ling shook his head.

  The two dogs in the family are only six months old, but they seem to be big dogs, but they are only just out of puberty.

   Several people chatted and walked to the fields outside the village.

   "Nice place."

   Liang Yuemin's eyes lit up when he saw the idyllic scenery.

   Then Wen Qing was sick again.

  Sourly recited two modern poems.

  Liu Yinhuan also nodded: "I really didn't expect that such a place with such beautiful scenery is hidden so far away from the county seat."

  Although she is from Changle Township, she was raised by her family as a seed for reading since she was a child. After high school, she went to the city and seldom returned home, so she did not know much about the nearby villages and towns.

   And because of a good marriage, he has been pampered for a long time, and now he is completely urbanite.

   is different from Liang Hongyu, who went to the countryside and actually did farm work.

   Although he is a rural child, he knows too little about the countryside, and even now he finds it novel.

   It really made Chen Ling and his wife laugh, and they thought that they wanted to take this family to work in the field, which was purely a joke.

   Just getting there, they were a little surprised.

   The couple actually got to work.

  The grass in the field was not hoeed clean, and their hands were also raw. They didn't know how to use a hoe. They actually pulled it out with their hands, and their faces were still happy.

   "Brother Yuemin, sister-in-law, don't start, or you will be scratched in a while."

   "Bring a sickle and a flat hoe, you can pick one."

  Chen Ling handed the sickle and the peace **** to the two of them.

  The sickle to cut grass is to run for the big weeds, and the flat **** is for children and the elderly, and it is suitable for those who are just working.

   Both of them refused to use it when they met, saying that they would not use it, it was too laborious, and it would be better to pull the grass by hand.

  Chen Ling had no choice but to tell them not to pull up the grass with thick leaves and deep roots, which was not only laborious, but also easily scratched his hands.

  The big grass is just left for them to hoe.

   This time, the two of them agreed.

   The remaining two flat hoes were used by Liang Hongyu.

  It is not slow to work like this. In half an afternoon, the grass on the two acres of peanut fields has been cleared.

   Of course, this is also because Chen Ling and the others hoeed more than half an acre in the morning.

   After finishing their work, they were not in a hurry to go home. After a few drinks, they chatted while looking at the scenery on the surrounding mountains.

   We are discussing going into the mountains tomorrow to pick some wild fruits or something.

  Chen Ling heard that they wanted to eat, so he went to a nearby place, picked up some wild dates, and picked them up for them to eat.

  Liang Hongyu and the two were rude, they grabbed it in their hands and stuffed it into their mouths.

   On the other hand, Liu Yinhuan stopped her, "Dad, Mom, it hasn't been washed yet, it's unsanitary."

   "What is unhygienic and unsanitary, if it is not clean and unclean, it will not get sick if you eat it. It is all wild things in the mountains, and you don't use medicine. What are you afraid of?"

   Liang Hongyu didn't care, and grabbed a few more from Chen Ling's hand.

   On the contrary, Qin Rongxian gave his son and daughter-in-law a concession, saying that they would also try it.

   The two refused, but they picked up two good-colored ones, put them in their mouths, and tasted them perfunctorily.

   Then they couldn't care about the hygiene and unsanitary. They kept their mouths shut and ate the rest of Chen Ling.

   I felt embarrassed after eating it.

  Chen Ling hurriedly said it was nothing, they were guarding this stuff, and they picked it up if they wanted to eat it.

   But you can't eat too much of this stuff, you will get stomach upset if you eat too much.

   Later, seeing that they had the idea of ​​going up the mountain, they talked about the recent situation. There are wild boars and wolves in the mountains.

  It is not recommended to go when it is getting dark.

   They also know what to do, and they said that they should just wait until tomorrow.

   "Why don't we grow rice here anymore, I heard there were a lot of them before?"

   Walking on the ridge and chatting, Qin Rong asked first.

   "Yeah, there have been quite a few, but those are all old yellow calendars."

   "I also heard the old people say that before the founding of the People's Republic of China, every mountain usually had a spring, and the reservoir was a big lake. In the past, in the old river bay, east of the river and west of the river, the surrounding areas near the river were basically rice fields."

   "The water on the mountain is good. They said that in the past, when you were thirsty for hunting, you could drink it directly. The mountain spring rice is also very fragrant."

   "Afterwards, the old springs on the mountain stopped flowing, and the old river bay was dry for a while, until the reservoir was repaired."

  Chen Ling looked at the surrounding mountains and told according to what he knew.

   "Listen to what you said, it should be before the founding of the country."

"Yes, it happened before the founding of the People's Republic of China. The mountain here is called Wuyun Mountain. In summer, there are often dark clouds and a lot of rain. The county town was also called Wuyun County in the past, but it was changed after the founding of the People's Republic of China. There are no dark clouds on the mountain and less rain."

   "Maybe the mountain springs have dried up, and that has something to do with it."

   Several people found it interesting, so let him continue.

  Chen Ling just talked about it.

   doesn’t matter if it’s true or false. Anyway, stories like this in the countryside are often exaggerated when they spread, so it’s better to tell them happily.

  … After returning home at dusk and washing his hands, Liang Yuemin was ready to call for his two children to go back to the county seat.

   As a result, Chen Ling helped find them half a village before finding them near Dayantang.

  The two little guys became little mud monkeys, and they were playing crazy, crying and making trouble, and didn't want to leave.

   Even Liang Yuemin said that the county seat was close enough that he could play again tomorrow, but he didn't listen at all, he just wouldn't leave.

  Chen Ling thought they couldn't give up the little wild boar and the little rabbit.

   As a result, I found out that I was going to the old house to catch birds at night.

Komori had already led people to step on it better. Originally, he was waiting for Wang Zhenzhen and Liu Nier to help him catch them. There were only a few old houses left in the village that no one went to, and there were several bird nests. If you go at night, you can block them directly. in the nest.

   After hearing this, Liang Yuemin didn't say anything.

  Chen Ling quit.

  How dangerous the old house is. It has been flooded again. Now it is crumbling, half-collapsed. At night, I can't see anything clearly. I go inside to dig for birds. If it collapses, it will be finished.

   refused to let them go.

   Just call Heiwa Xiaojin tomorrow and take them to catch rabbits. Isn’t it more fun than digging for birds?

   Sure enough, the little dolls cheered.

   Even Liang Yuemin was very moved.

   "Let's go, go home and take a shower, you're so crazy, your mother won't even recognize you when you go back."

  Little fat boy Liang Yiming and little girl Ren Xiaoli followed to catch frogs. They were very excited when they played for the first time. They didn't catch a few frogs, but they were covered in mud.

  Good guy, when I first came here, the little girl disliked the dirty little dolls in the village.

   As a result, she herself has become a dirty mud monkey.

   Hearing uncle talking about them, he smiled slightly, showing small white teeth, still a little shy.

   But those eyes are very bright.

   followed Wang Zhenzhen, looked at the two adults quietly, panted slightly, and the tip of his nose was sweating constantly, which was obviously a pleasure.

   "Go home, go home, drive!"

  Wang Zhenzhen said hello, and these little boys became foals, patted their butts, cheered, and ran to their houses.

   The two little fat guys followed suit and ran out of breath.

   Back at Chen Ling's house, Liu Yinhuan was dumbfounded when she saw the two children in this state, and then she was also angry and helpless.

   After a short rest, thinking of bathing and changing clothes for the two children, Liang Yuemin drove into the car and went back with his family.

the next day.

   came quite early.

   Chen Ling's family hurried over before they had breakfast.

  After dinner, they carried baskets and straw hats on their backs, and followed Chen Ling and Wang Susu to pick wild fruits on the mountain.

   No one will talk about unsanitary things this time.

Not only did the two little guys pick and eat with the dolls in the village, but Liang Yuemin and his wife also took them off, wiped them on their clothes and stuffed them into their mouths. He just washed briefly by the stream, and continued to pick and eat. At noon, Liang Yuemin ate too much wild fruit and complained of a stomachache.

   I didn't even eat lunch, and only after drinking two cups of tea from Chen Ling did I recover.

   In the afternoon, I went to catch rabbits with great interest.

From the south of the village to Laohewan, nothing was planted in the wasteland left by Chen Erzhu, and wild rabbits and pheasants came to visit every day. In this situation, Liang Yuemin was more excited than the two children, and rushed out after shouting.

   But in the end, he is a person who often does not work, his body is weak, and he is so tired that he bends down and gasps for breath after not running very far.

   In the end, it was Xiaojin who caught the rabbit back.

   In fact, it doesn't matter whether you can catch a rabbit or not. Fishing is better than a fish, and so is catching a rabbit. The fun is catching, not the rabbit.

   Eating sweet and sour wild fruits, you can see the gorgeous scenery of autumn mountains and forests, watching pheasants, hares, and hedgehogs rushing out from time to time. There were also snakes, and water birds also disappeared among the reeds. They were startled, shouting and screaming, and like big children, they let go of their hearts and completely immersed themselves in this wild interest.

   I had a comfortable stay and had a good time these two days. Not to mention the two children, the two adults, Liang Yuemin, did not want to leave.

  Liang Hongyu wished they were close to Chen Ling, and she smiled and said she would come over often.

   "Uncle, auntie, this is my gift to you."

When    left, the little girl walked up to Chen Ling and Wang Susu, gave them a beautiful and delicate wind chime, and begged them to take good care of the little piglets and never eat them.

   Hearing Chen Ling and his uncle talk about roast suckling pig these two days, she was terrified.

   I was afraid that next time I came, the little wild boar would be eaten up by Chen Ling.

  Chen Ling couldn't help laughing when she heard it, Wang Susu gave him a look, touched the little girl's head, said she couldn't eat it, and reassured her.

   But the little fat man was very heartless. Knowing that he could come again in the future, he would dig holes in the village to bury things, saying that he had hidden treasures and would dig them up next time he came.

  Liang Hongyu saw the joke that the eldest grandson was like a puppy, and actually buried something in the soil, the little fat man listened to it and laughed, saying that he was a puppy, and then barked with his tongue out, making a lot of noise.

   The family was sent away, and the work in the field was finished.

   This family has been here for more than two days, not only playing crazy, but also helping to weed and water the ground. In the eyes of ordinary people, the rough work is tiring, but they think it is fun everywhere.

  The villagers were also surprised when they saw it. They had previously discussed that there were cars coming to Chen Ling's house every day.

   As a result, they also helped Chen Ling to do farm work, which made it even more interesting. They were amazed by each one, and they even said that Chen Ling had the ability.

   Liang Hongyu, the two elders, knew some villagers.

But Liang Yuemin and his wife were unfamiliar. The two of them had dressed up in simplicity, but their temperament could not be concealed at all, especially Liu Yinhuan, who had thin skin and tender meat, with a beautiful face and big eyes. You can feel the luxury.

   Let such a woman go to the ground to pull weeds, the mud legs in the village can't even think about it.

   After seeing Chen Ling, he gave him a thumbs up, but it made Chen Ling confused for a while.

  …

  The 28th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar is the autumnal equinox the next day.

   It started raining early this morning.

   The drizzle was misty and fluttering, and the rain was cool and cool, finally washing away the last bit of summer heat.

   This was the first rain after the flood, and it was not heavy.

   But the time is not short. It went on for a day and a night, and it didn't stop.

  In such weather, people sleep more deeply at night.

   Even the people who patrolled the night watch relaxed their vigilance.

   But that night was not very peaceful.

   No one expected that the wolf, who had been circling outside the village for nearly a month, would pick such a juncture and touch the village in the second half of the night.

  …Chen Ling and his wife were woken up by the barking of their own dog.

   found that Xiaojin's cry was not right, and Heiwa rarely became serious, and shouted angrily.

  Chen Ling knew it was something.

   Sure enough, not long after, someone came to the house to call him.

   So he turned on the lights in the courtyard and asked what was going on outside.

   Only then did I know that the wolf entered the village.

   The rain had stopped for a while, but the fog was thick at night.

  This pack of wolves really picks the time.

   "Sister, brother-in-law, what's going on outside?"

  East house, after Wang Zhenzhen was woken up, he stuck his head out of the window to see what was going on outside.

   I saw my sister come out with a coat and put it on my brother-in-law, and there were many people talking in the courtyard.

   "It's nothing, just go to sleep, I said that a wolf has entered the village, ask your brother-in-law to help."

"Oh."

   Hearing this, Wang Zhenzhen rubbed his eyes and went back to sleep.

  For her, wolves are nothing unusual, they are often seen in the stockade, and they also have a wolf-fighting team there.

   Brother-in-law has a shotgun here, so don't worry at all.

   "Go back to sleep too."

  Chen Ling buttoned up his coat and said something to his daughter-in-law.

   Then shouted the two dogs, who had raised their ears, groaned and restless, turned around and strode into the night fog.

  —
