Otherworldly Farmhouse

Mu Feng led Tang Anwen to play for half an hour, and then the two returned to the shore to rest. After Tang Anwen drank some water, he saw the fruit and beans in the children's area. Children of the Muha tribe, at this age, basically know how to After playing, those who don't know how to play are as big as Sanbao Mao Mao. These two little guys are also walking carefully on the ice wearing skates at this time.

Tang Anwen said to Mu Feng who was sitting next to him: "Let's go teach the children." Before he finished speaking, Mu Feng saw Guoguo sitting on the ground, and he glanced at Tang Anwen who was blushing, and nodded .

So Tang Anwen stood up, shouted at Douzi and Guoguo, and Mu Yu and Luo Ling who were watching the children looked over, so Mu Yu and Luo Ling took the children back to the rest area, here There are a lot of thick felt and sheepskin placed on the ground, so it won't be cold to sit on.

Tang Anwen saw that Luo Ling was only wearing shoes, so he smiled and said, "Luo Ling, I will teach the children how to play later, do you want to learn it? You have been here for several years, but you haven't learned it yet, Mu Yu, don't worry. .”

When Luo Ling heard Tang Anwen talk about Mu Yu, he quickly defended Mu Yu and said, "It's not Mu Yu's fault. I was at war a few years ago, and I didn't study well, so I fell pretty badly, so I'd better take a look." Yeah, I can't get the balance right."

Then Luo Ling immediately asked enviously: "Tang Anwen, what's the matter with you, you can skate after wearing it, where did you learn it, teach me how, I also want to skate with Muyu."

Tang Anwen smiled and said, "I learned it in my dream. If there is no problem teaching you, I don't know if you will learn it or not."

Mu Yu looked at Luo Ling's envious face, and felt a little distressed. After Luo Ling came to the tribe in the past few years, the tribe has been fighting all the year round, and there are patients who need Luo Ling's treatment every day.Even after the winter truce, he still has a lot of things to do, and he has no time to teach Luo Ling. Luo Ling was played with by his apprentice a few times, but he never came to play again after falling down. This is the second time he accompanied him. That said, he accompanied Luo Ling to play last year, but Luo Ling didn't want to play anymore after falling twice.

Mu Yu put his arms around Luo Ling and said, "I'll teach you later, you can learn it patiently, you can learn it in two days, don't worry, children will fall down when they learn, let alone you are an adult, it's even more difficult to learn Some."

Hearing Mu Yu's words, Luo Ling nodded, and looked at everyone else on the ice. It would be a lie to say that he was not envious, but for some reason, he couldn't grasp the balance well, and kept falling over and over again.

It took Tang Anwen and the others a day. Douzi Guoguo and the others had a good sense of balance, and Sanbao was even better. After being taught by Tang Anwen for half an hour, the little guy was able to slide unsteadily on the ice.Douzi Guoguo can slide up and down a few times. Mu Feng said that as long as the two little guys are practicing, there will be no problem. The most problematic one is Luo Ling. Even if Mu Yu supports him and takes him, he will still fall. Wearing thick enough clothes is Luo Ling's experience of falling, and wearing more clothes will not hurt so much.

Maomao can’t slip yet, but he can walk a few steps on the ice. Little Maomao is fine, he can’t even walk well, and he often falls. Fortunately, he also has something fun, a wooden board with wheels and a stick Just be able to slide with him.

That night, Mu Feng asked Tang Anwen how he could skate. Tang Anwen told Mu Feng with a smile that he had learned this in middle school, and he often went to play in high school. He dared not play for fear of bumping into someone.

And that night, Tang Anwen brought Mu Feng to the skating rink in his dream. Tang Anwen kept spinning, jumping, and doing splits on the ice. Anyway, in his dream, Tang Anwen was not afraid of getting hurt, and had a great time playing.He also dragged Mu Feng to dance a dance, which made Mu Feng dizzy, because Tang Anwen always dragged him around in circles and asked him to bend down and lift his legs, etc., but Mu Feng was exhausted enough, it turns out that skating is also like this There are many tricks.

Although it is cold in winter, as long as there is no north wind and the sun, Mufeng will take the whole family out to play, which is considered breathable.

Time flies by unknowingly, and it is the Chinese New Year in a blink of an eye. Mufeng prepares a lot of delicious food. Tang Anwen asks if he wants to set off firecrackers. When they are in Huaishui, they set off fireworks every New Year. It is similar to the modern ones. It's not that many, but it's also very beautiful.

Mu Feng shook his head towards Tang Anwen, telling Tang Anwen that their tribe could not set off firecrackers, because they were afraid of triggering an avalanche in the surrounding mountains, so they seldom even yelled at Gao Sheng in winter.

It was only when Tang Anwen heard this that he understood why the tribe was so quiet in winter. Except for the dogs barking, there was very little noise in the tribe.

Mu Yu and Luo Ling have been living in Tang Anwen's house since winter, and it's really warm and comfortable to live here.Many people have visited Mufeng's house, and those people are also planning to build a house like Tang Anwen's house next year. It is warm to live in and does not need to suffer from the cold in winter.

Mufeng put the colorful flags that he had made a few days ago on the roof of the house, and the colorful flags were blown by the cold wind. Tang Anwen felt cold even sitting in the room, the wind was really strong.After Tang Anwen had breakfast, Mufeng's aunt came over and brought a lot of things, because the ground was slippery and the road down the mountain was difficult to walk, Mufeng's aunt told Mufeng that his father was getting old now, and this weather is not suitable Walking around, so he sent it over, and told Mufeng not to mind, after the snow melted, he asked Mufeng's father to come and see them.

Mufeng's aunt praised Tang Anwen again, saying that Mufeng had a good eye and found a good husband, not only enough to love Mufeng and the child, but even the house was built differently. There is no blueprint, and next year he will also build a small bamboo building like this, so that it will be warm in winter.

Mu Feng shook his head and said that he didn't know where the drawings went, but he gave a general idea, and said that if his aunt built the house, he would go back to help at that time, and it didn't matter whether he had the drawings or not.After hearing this, his aunt was very happy, her eyes were crooked with a smile, she stretched out her hand to rub Mufeng's hair, with the elder's love for the younger in her eyes, she whispered some comforting words to Mufeng, since Mufeng came back, He and his aunt hadn't had a good conversation, but this time they talked.

Aunt Mufeng also knew that Mufeng was not used to staying with him for too long now, so she left in a hurry after speaking. There was still a husband and two children to take care of at home, and he was no longer as leisurely as when he was single.

Mu Yu didn't have much to do these days. Apart from being with his children and Luo Ling, he just tried to make delicious food in different ways. Ever since Luo Ling learned how to skate, he was always in a good mood. After studying for more than half a month, even the wind couldn't stop him. Fortunately, his hard work paid off. After his lips were split, his face was scratched, and even the face cream couldn't protect him, Luo Ling finally learned up.

Since he learned it, Luo Ling didn't go to the frozen lake anymore. He touched his scratched face and was tinkering with the face cream he prepared every day. He added some herbs to the frostbite cream from the tribe ,.He also got rid of a few of them, trying to get rid of the smell of medicine, but this task seems to be a bit difficult, so far Luo Ling has no way to do it.

Tang Anwen didn't like the smell very much, so for his nose, he got a separate room for Luo Ling. Although there would still be a smell in the living room, the medicine was much weaker, and the smell was not so smoky, and it could still make people feel better. people accept.

Mufeng and Muyu hung some bells and colored silks at the door. If Tang Anwen went out to visit the tribe at this time, he would find that no matter it was a tent or a bamboo house in the tribe, all kinds of colored silks were hung up, plus countless wind hunting paintings. The resounding colorful flags added joy to the whole tribe out of thin air.

The children wrapped in balls were not afraid of the cold, and ran around in the wind. Mu Feng had put face cream on the faces of the children in the family early on. Guoguo and Doudou took Sanbao and Mao Mao out. Xiao Mao was too young , can only stay at home as a little follower.

Sanbao sat on the small wooden board and shouted loudly, brother, come on, brother, come on. The board is rectangular, and the boards at both ends are slightly tilted. A rope is worn on the head. The children are sitting on the board, and the older children are pulling the rope to move quickly. run.

Hearing his younger brother's shout, Douzi stopped and said to Sanbao: "Little brother, don't open your mouth, be careful to eat the wind, and the same for you, Mao Mao, don't eat the wind, Mao Mao is smaller than Sanbao, and weighs slightly less Some, Guoguo didn't feel too tired dragging on the snow, but it was quite hot and sweated, and this wooden board was borrowed from another friend.

Waiting until noon, Mu Feng looked at the empty yard in front of the house, so he called to Mu Yu: "Mu Yu, go and call the children back, dinner is almost ready."

When Mu Yu, who was shoveling snow around the house, heard it, he stood up and shoveled the snow down. Half of the snow shovel was buried in the frozen ground, and he nodded towards Mu Feng. Walking in the direction of the sound, these little guys have been playing like crazy for the past two days. The adults have been busy preparing for the New Year these two days, and they have no time to take care of these little guys, except for the single brothers who often take turns to take care of the children to prevent them from appearing. dangerous thing.

When Mu Yu walked over, he heard his son shouting loudly for his brother to come on, and there were a few older children running hard on the snow, pulling the younger ones.Mu Yu shook his head and shouted at the little guys: "Everyone stopped, it's time for dinner, go home, go home..."

After Mu Yu yelled a few times, the dozen or so children had probably decided the winner. They carried the board and took their younger brother away in a rush. Douzi and Guoguo walked towards Mu Yu with Sanbao and Mao Mao .

Mu Yu reached out and rubbed Guoguo's hair, the little guy's head was covered with sweat, and he didn't know where he took off his hat.Mu Yu said: "Aren't you tired, don't play with this in the future, your two younger brothers are not light, it's not good to be tired."

After hearing Aunt Muyu's words, Douzi immediately said: "Auntie is not so tired. We have gained a lot of strength. We were tired at the beginning of pulling them for a while. Now we can drag them for a long time, but it is very hot."

Mu Yu nodded and said: "It can really restore your energy, take a shower after you get back, otherwise you will have to get sick. Douzi is the same as Guoguo, his head is full of sweat, it seems that he will pay more attention to it in the future." , It’s not good to sweat in such weather, if it takes a long time, the sweat on Guoguo and Doudou’s heads will definitely freeze.”

Mu Yu brought the four children back home, and immediately asked Tang Anwen and Luo Ling to get clothes, and he went to fetch water to bathe the children. Fortunately, in the Muha tribe, hair can be cut, otherwise these children would go far away , washing your hair is a big hassle.

Pressing the four children to take a simple hot bath, Mufeng has already laid out the lunch meals, some stewed meat, some made by Mufeng and Muyu, and some were sent by Aunt Mufeng.Tang Anwen took a dry cloth towel and wiped the dripping water on the heads of the two young children. It was woven with cotton thread and cashmere. It was very soft, similar to a towel, and very absorbent.

Fortunately, the child's hair is not long. After rubbing it three times and two times, the ticking water on the hair will be wiped off. The child's hair is fine and soft, and it is easy to dry in a warm room.

Clay pots are placed in the four corners of the living room, and the pots are filled with clean water, because the house will dry up when heated, and without this water, the skin will dry out.At this time, Xiao Mao Mao started to play with the water while no one was paying attention. Unfortunately, with his small hands, he couldn't catch a few drops of water, and they all fell on the floor.

With sharp eyes, Luo Ling saw that his youngest son was doing something bad, and immediately walked over, but it was too late, the cuff of Xiaomao's right hand was half wet, and Mu Yu, who was scooping up rice, immediately put down the spoon in his hand and handed it to Mu Fengsan. Walked over in two steps, caught Xiao Mao, stretched out his hand and slapped the little guy's ass twice, and didn't care about Xiao Mao Mao's dry howling, and carried Xiao Mao Mao into the room to change his clothes.

Ever since the little guy found water in the clay pot in the corner of the room the day before yesterday, this kid wanted to fish it out. Every time he didn't get much water, he just wet his sleeves every time. This kid played twice, even There is no change of clothes.

Tang Anwen, who had already sat down to eat, saw that Xiao Maomao had changed another piece of clothes, so he asked, "Did Xiao Maomao go to play in the water again, so when will you make a cabinet for Mufeng, a little higher, we will put it Put the clay pot on top so Little Fluffy can't reach it, so he won't keep getting his clothes wet."

Before Mu Feng answered, Mu Yu nodded and said: "No problem, I have a cabinet at home, and Mu Feng and I will move it here later," Mu Feng nodded after hearing this, he was just about to say Where can I get firewood at this time, and the weather is too cold, so it is troublesome to make a cabinet.

This afternoon, the children finally stayed at home obediently. Mufeng was chopping the stuffing. They made dumplings to eat tonight. During the Chinese New Year, the Muha people generally roast a whole sheep, or if there are too many people in the family, they will kill a whole lamb. Only a cow, but both Tang Anwen and Luo Ling want to eat dumplings, and the children also like to eat dumplings. The roasted whole lamb is on fire, and the few of them can’t finish the slaughtered cow, and Aunt Mufeng has already brought it. A lot of raw and cooked meat is enough for them to eat for several days.

Moreover, making dumplings can mobilize the whole family. This feeling is different. Mu Yu has no opinion at all. Little Maomao likes dumplings. Mu Feng has made dumplings before. Whether it's rolling the dough or adjusting the fillings, it's a bit worse.

Muyu quickly learned how to make dumplings under the tutelage of the little teacher Douzi. Although the dumplings were not very well made, they should not fall apart.

Sanbao and Maomao were also clamoring for a bag with a noodle, only Xiao Maomao could only play with a noodle, and he didn't know that his face was touched by him, and a small face that was originally fair became what it is today. little painted face.

In the evening, in addition to dumplings, there are many special dishes of Mufeng and Muyu, and there is also a cold dish. This dish was made by Mufeng when he was in Huaishui, but it is rarely made in other places. The venetian black hairy tripe, beef tendon, beef, and mutton from outside the house, after adding seasoning, it becomes a pretty good cold dish. As soon as this dish came out, Luo Ling ate it full of praise. Of course, the little ones ate a little bit at a time After a while, I ate a little more, and when it was time to eat, I was almost eaten by stealing.

The New Year’s Eve of the Muha people is actually quite fun. If you are not afraid of the cold, you can go to the bonfire party after dinner, sing and dance, and drink spicy kumiss, but most of them are single boys who go to participate For such a bonfire, the temperature is too low when there are children, and they are afraid of frostbite, so generally they will not go to the bonfire.

Tang An Wenxian was bored, and he could go outside to watch the fireworks in Huaishui, and invite jugglers or opera singers to sing a tune or something, anyway, whatever the excitement.When Tang Anwen and the others were in Huaishui, they spent one year at the Wang’s house in Zhennan. After the Muha tribe, they can only stay at home, without TV, computer, and nothing interesting, so Tang Anwen is a little bored.

When Tang Anwen proposed to tell a story, Douzi Guoguo immediately surrounded him, along with Sanbao and Mao Mao, only Xiao Mao Mao didn't know what was going on, so he knew to follow behind his brother, seeing his brother sitting around, he was also there Maomao found someone to surround her, and she couldn't cross her legs, so she sat with her feet wide open.

Only when Luo Ling heard that Tang Anwen was going to tell a story, he immediately remembered that Tang Anwen might tell ghost stories. In fact, it is reasonable to say that Luo Ling, a doctor who has saved countless people, should not be afraid of these illusory things, but on the contrary, Luo Ling Ling was very afraid of the ghost stories Tang Anwen told, because this guy told them very scary, and the stories followed one after another without repetition.

Looking at Luo Ling's erratic eyes, Tang Anwen burst out laughing, saying that the children were all there, and he told some short stories, not horror stories, so Luo Ling sat down with the children and Mu Yu.

Tang Anwen's stories were written well, and his narration was not bad. He picked and told some modern fairy tales, and found some wild notes that he had read before, and the middle of the night passed.Tang Anwen looked at the people surrounding him. Except for the sleeping kitten, everyone else stared at him blankly. Luo Ling coughed and said, "It's almost midnight, everyone, go to sleep. Douzi Guoguo should go to bed early and get up early tomorrow, Mufeng every morning we have to give New Year greetings to your father, your aunt sent so many things, but we didn't return the gifts, just look at what we send over, after all."

Mu Feng glanced at Tang Anwen and said with a smile: "It's ready-made, didn't we bring back a set of your picture books, it's best to give that to Auntie, he will definitely like you."

Tang Anwen nodded when he heard it, and the whole room quickly finished washing, and everyone went back to their own rooms to sleep. Mufeng filled the hot pot with water and cow dung before washing and going to bed , This new year is the most peaceful year he has ever lived, and he can only feel that he has really returned home when he returns to the tribe Mufeng.

As soon as he was lying on the bed, Mufeng fell into darkness. Today is not the fifteenth day, but he knows that today is an important day. His father and grandparents will probably come to his family to celebrate the New Year. Once, and again at night.

This time when Mu Feng entered, Tang Anwen happened to be standing in the courtyard. Usually, Mu Feng was the last one to come over, and he was also the last one to enter the house. Mu Feng did not expect that the whole family would gather in the courtyard this time. Inside, Tang Anwen was hesitating and smoking, and Mu Feng didn't know what it was, so he saw Tang Anwen inhale it, sparks suddenly appeared from that hair that was neither long nor short, and flashed in the darkness Suddenly, Mu Feng saw Tang Anwen bent over, as if he was about to ignite something.
