Rebirth: Good Farming in the 90s

Qin Yang woke up early the next day. He found plastic paper that he had never used and wrapped the inner liners of the two wooden barrels. When he was ready, Qin Yang straightened up and took a look at the back room. Jiang Yu had already woken up and was sitting and getting dressed.

Qin Yang walked into the room fully dressed, Jiang Yu immediately stood up and said anxiously: "I, I'll get dressed right away, ready, Qin Yang, you, you have to wait for me..."

Qin Yang reached out to help Jiang Yu straighten the clothes whose sleeves were crooked so he couldn't find the sleeves, and tentatively said, "Don't go today, play with Xiao Hei at home, and I'll bring you delicious food."

Jiang Yu thought for a while, then nodded obediently, and said without hesitation: "Then, then I will stay at home with Xiao Hei."

Qin Yang looked at Jiang Yu raising his eyebrows in surprise. He was not used to Jiang Yu's sudden straightforwardness for a while and seemed rather surprised. Shouldn't this guy tell himself that he wants to go with him coquettishly? Why did he agree to stay in the I'm with Xiao Hei at home.

"Xiao Hei was beaten by bad guys last night. He doesn't dare to stay at home alone. I want to accompany Xiao Hei..." Jiang Yu muttered to himself while putting on his pants, which made Qin Yang confused. Speak out.

Qin Yang smiled, rubbed Jiang Yu's head, and said, "Don't run around, I'm going out, I'm bored at home alone, so I went to play with Qin Feng."

"Well, I, Xiao Hei and I are here, waiting for you at home." Jiang Yu said, "Remember to buy, buy delicious food..."

Qin Yang: "..."

This little fool seems to have been fed into a foodie by himself, thinking about food all day long.

Qin Yang smiled helplessly, and walked out of the house with a bucket.

Because he got up early, there were not many people in the village walking around, so Qin Yang carried buckets all the way down the yellow mud field, went to the town and took a car to the city.

Doing business with Zhang Wei is always a pleasure. Two buckets of cabbage weighed 46 catties and sold for more than 250 yuan. After calculating the cost, Qin Yang made some money. Now there are three sacks of cabbage at home, so he can earn about [-] yuan at least. If you still want to make it at that time, you can buy cabbage to make it again.

Compared with spicy cabbage, Qin Yang is more worried that there will be no market for sauerkraut. After all, it is too ordinary, and there are only a few dishes that can be made. Whether Zhang Wei will like it is still the same thing.

If the other party doesn't like it, then the four sacks of vegetables at home can only be sold in Yuncheng.

Qin Yang was shopping in the market with an empty bucket, and when he was buying materials for making spicy cabbage, he found that the number of hawkers selling incense paper candles had doubled significantly.

Thinking about it carefully, it turns out that July and a half is coming soon, and now it is the NO. Come to confess, at this time before, his mother had already arranged everything. It seems that there is no woman in this family, and no one can remember what festival it is. Last Dragon Boat Festival, Qin Yang always remembered to buy Zongzi and realgar wine, when I saw the two brothers Qin Lei and Qin Xin sitting at the door eating rice dumplings, I suddenly remembered that the Dragon Boat Festival had passed for several days.

Qin Yang thought for a while, and bought a pair of big red candles, three piles of burnt paper stacked high, and weighed two catties of green oranges, two catties of ground radishes and two catties of pomegranates, these three fruits Qin Yang remembered buying every year The classic fruit that came to greet the ancestors, no matter how poor the family is, the family has never been ambiguous in worshiping the ancestors.

The most anticipated event when I was a child was the day when I sent it to my ancestors, because the fruit biscuits I had been waiting for for a few days were finally ready to eat.

After buying the necessary things, Qin Yang bought a lot of biscuits, lean meat and eggs, etc. He planned to ask Qin's father to teach him to invite his ancestors back to make offerings.

July and a half in the countryside is very lively and interesting. Unlike in the city, the July and a half in the city is always crowned with the gimmick of ghosts coming out of customs. The July and a half in the countryside is actually a grand and grand festival. , at least in Qin Yang's impression that every July and a half is very lively, and there is no word about any ghosts coming out of the gate.

For Qin Yang, who has gradually forgotten the importance and symbolic meaning of festivals with the progress of the times, this year's July and a half is very worth looking forward to.

After shopping and returning home, when Jiang Yu saw Qin Yang came back, he immediately ran up to take the things in his hands and carried them back to the house in a sensible manner.

Qin Yang took Jiang Yu to the next yard to discuss the matter with Qin's father. In the yard, he happened to meet Grandma Qin who was holding coal under the corner of the wall. Grandma Qin straightened up and said, "What did you say yesterday? Did the family say anything to just let them go?"

Qin Yang stopped, and Jiang Yu, who was following closely behind, bumped into Qin Yang's back in an instant. He timidly glanced at Grandma Qin, and happened to find that she was also looking at him, and Jiang Yu suddenly turned around in fear. Go to Qin Yang's right side, put his face on Qin Yang's shoulder to avoid Grandma Qin's disgusting gaze.

Qin Yang said lightly: "What do you need to express?"

"Apologize." Grandma Qin said angrily, "Hmph, let me see how the Bao family will continue to pretend to be noble and shameless!"

"If it's not a sincere apology, it's up to them whether you want to do the same or not." The story of Bao Ze's stealing has spread throughout the village. When he returned to the village just now, many people saw him and came forward to ask about it. Contemptuously scolding and blaming the Bao family in front of him, Qin Yang sneered in his heart, dealt with it lightly and left.

Presumably, when his father did those things, the villagers discussed themselves with the Bao family in the same way.

"You can think about it, and don't think about how they treat your father... People like their Bao family should be taught a lesson!" Grandma Qin hummed dissatisfiedly, Qin Yang didn't argue, After a few casual sentences, he led Jiang Yu back to the house.

Qin Yang moved Qin's father to the outside room and told him his plan. Qin's father immediately said happily: "Okay, our family hasn't invited any ancestors for several years, and the tablet I painted before is on my You can hang it on the top of the bed where you sleep, and we invite our ancestors to spend July and a half."

"Okay, okay!" Qin Feng immediately jumped happily.

Qin Yang went to the room and brought a scroll to unfold. There were many lifelike figures on it, men, women, old and young. On the scroll, all the ancestors of the Qin family were listed from top to bottom in the form of a family tree. Arranged one by one, this is exactly the ancestral tablet enshrined in July and a half in memory.

Qin Yang unfolded the scroll and looked at it for a few breaths before hanging it on the wall. According to Qin's father, he moved the table and put it under the memorial tablet, and brought fruit pancakes for offering. The courtyard wall of the house has been inserted along the path to the white grave, implying to lead the way for the ancestors.

After finishing these, Qin Yang stopped worrying about it and started making his spicy cabbage, while Jiang Yu often sat in the corner and drool over the fruit offerings on the table like Qin Feng's greedy cat.

The materials Qin Yang bought back were enough to make two sacks of spicy cabbage. He spent two days to prepare the spicy cabbage and put them in a plastic bucket to pickle them before July and a half. Wei sent spicy cabbage.

On the thirteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the courtyard of the Qin family was lively.

Qin Yang went out early in the morning, saying that he wanted to buy some side dishes and came to the [-]th. Just after breakfast, Qin Xin and Qin Lei sat in the courtyard with a pumpkin in their arms to make a lantern, and Jiang Yu and Father Qin sat in the room He was enjoying the shade in the pergola next to him, looking enviously at the pumpkins in their hands and watching them making lanterns.

Seeing Jiang Yu's serious face, Father Qin couldn't help but ask, "Little fool, do you want to play with melon lanterns too?"

Jiang Yu glanced at Qin's father dully, and said sullenly, "We don't have melons..."

Qin's father likes Jiang Yu's obedient and sensible appearance very much, unlike the two brothers Qin Lei and Qin Xin, who always want what others have. "Let Qin Yang find one for you, and we will also make lanterns."

"Yes, but Qin Yang is not at home." Jiang Yu pursed his lips, stood up suddenly and said to Qin's father, "I, I'll wait for Qin Yang at the entrance of the village."

Qin's father nodded and told him not to run around, Jiang Yu trotted out of the yard immediately.

Jiang Yu passed by his yard, and Xiao Hei, who was lying in the yard, followed Jiang Yu out vigilantly.

One person and one dog had just descended the side slope of the white tomb, and Qin Yang happened to come up from the side slope below with a lot of things. There was a road about two meters wide between them.

"where to."

Jiang Yu's eyes lit up, and he ran up to Qin Yang cheerfully, walked around Qin Yang with Xiao Hei twice, and said with a smile; "Qin Yang, you are back, me, Xiao Hei and I just wanted to pick you up. , pick you up..."

Qin Yang smiled and said, "Go home, I bought pumpkins, let's make gourd lanterns."

"Okay, okay."

When they got home, they handed all the meat and vegetables they bought to Qin Feng, and the two carried a pumpkin the size of a basketball to the shed to start making lanterns.

There is nothing special about making gourd lanterns, what is needed is creativity, and creativity is a thing that Qin Yang goes a step further than everyone else. He first cut the pumpkin into [-] parts, cut the end with the melon pedicle to make the gourd lantern cover, and took out the pumpkin So Kong started to carve windows around the pumpkin with a knife, and then just put the candles in, and a beautiful gourd lantern would be formed at night, which instantly broke the previous style of a simple gourd lantern model.

Qin Lei and Qin Xin naturally saw Qin Yang's work and liked it very much, so he ran to the pergola with a pumpkin in his arms to watch Qin Yang's carving seriously.

After Qin Yang finished carving a beautiful pumpkin with various weird patterns, Qin Lei suddenly handed out the messy melon in his arms, and said with a smile, "Qin Yang, you can carve one for us too. "

Qin Yang looked up at Qin Lei, without saying much, took the melon handed over by the other party and began to polish and carve it for the two of them.

Qin Lei and Qin Xin began to poke and touch the pumpkin that Qin Yang carved for Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu felt distressed and reached out to touch the flower engraved on the pumpkin that Qin Lei had picked out curiously, and said dully: "You, You touch it lightly, this is, it belongs to my house, don’t touch it, break it.”

Qin Xin said dismissively: "Fool, this is not made of fart, it will break if you touch it?"

Qin Yang raised his head and glanced at Qin Xin lightly, Qin Xin didn't dare to speak immediately.

After more than ten minutes, a beautiful gourd lantern was born.

Qin Lei and Qin Xin jumped up and down happily holding the melon lantern, ignored Qin Yang, and ran straight into the house holding the melon.

Qin Yang didn't care much, he carried the pumpkin lantern and led Jiang Yu to the next door. Qin's father shook his head, but didn't comment on Qin Lei and Qin Xin's impolite behavior.
