After graduation, I went home to keep bees

Someone sent the children off from school, Jiang Xiaoman was not in a hurry to go home, but made dinner for Jiang Baichuan first.

When the weather is good, no students live on campus, so there are only two people in the school, Jiang Baichuan and Qu Jingjiang. Usually, Jiang Baichuan cooks more for lunch. Just heat it up.

But now that Jiang Baichuan couldn't move his arms, Jiang Xiaoman wasn't as thrifty as he was at all. He didn't leave any leftovers at noon, so he just cooked something fresh at night.

It just so happened that the villagers sent a lot of things over. The live chickens and ducks were untied and put in the backyard to be raised first. The bacon could be used for cooking first.

Jiang Xiaoman didn't do much for the two of us. He went to the vegetable field behind the school to pick a handful of leeks, chopped a cabbage, sliced ​​the bacon, and fried a plate of cabbage with peppers. Washed and chopped the leeks, beat them Four native eggs went in, fried a plate of leek omelette, stewed some sweet potato rice, and steamed a plate of bacon and potato slices on top, put a layer of bacon on the sliced ​​potatoes, chopped some garlic, dried chili and sprinkled Go up, drizzle with a spoonful of soybean oil, and steam it for a special meal.

When he was picking vegetables, Qu Jingjiang appeared out of nowhere, and squatted on the ground silently helping him pick the leeks together. Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, he couldn't help but glared at him angrily: " I'm just selfish! I just have no conscience! You can scold me if you want!"

Jiang Xiaoman was wronged!

Who is going to scold you?

It's true that I feel uncomfortable, but the villagers really haven't heard of anyone scolding Qu Jingjiang behind his back. Even some of the older generation's thinking is more traditional, and they think it's a pity for him and Jiang Baichuan. It is a pity to stay in the village to teach for the rest of his life after going to university... So, the villagers understand Qu Jingjiang's resignation and return to the city better than he himself.

The one who really couldn't let go was himself.

After all, I had a passion for rural education at the beginning, but in the final analysis, the reality defeated the ideal.Qu Jingjiang is the only child in the family, and I heard that his family is not particularly well-off, and his parents have to rely on him to earn money for the elderly, so it is impossible to stay in the village all his life, with the frighteningly low salary of a substitute teacher.

In that way, don't talk about taking care of your parents, even he can't support himself, okay?

However, Jiang Xiaoman didn't know how to persuade him about this kind of thing, so he could only comfort him dryly, saying that the villagers didn't blame him.

Qu Jingjiang looked up at him, sneered, buried himself in picking leeks, and ignored him.

Jiang Xiaoman: "..."

Why is this little brother so arrogant?

He really couldn't understand Qu Jingjiang's entanglement, what's there to be entangled with?

If you have the ability to stay in the village, then follow your heart and strive for your ideals~ Temporary conditions do not allow it, then take care of your own small family first, and then help others if you have spare energy. It is unreasonable to starve your parents to death in order to help others right?

It can only be said that he is still too vulgar, and his father always said that he would bring great wealth to the village sooner or later, come on!He doesn't even know where he works.

After making a meal for Jiang Baichuan and helping to feed the chickens and ducks in the backyard, Jiang Xiaoman hurried home, when his father came down to dig potatoes on the way, Jiang Xiaoman put down his basket and helped them dig for a while.

Hearing that Jiang Baichuan was discharged from the hospital, Jiang Youliang also said that he would catch a chicken for him to eat, and told his son not to forget to take the chicken with him when he went down the mountain tomorrow.

"Many people in the village have sent chickens and eggs. I think we should not send chickens. I will go down the mountain early the day after tomorrow to catch up with the market. I will buy a big hoof and stew it for Uncle Baichuan."

"That's fine! I think their school's yams are about to be harvested. Tell him to stay still and help him collect them after I finish my work in the past two days." Jiang Youliang knew Jiang Baichuan's, in order to save money for the school, he can grow it himself, and he is determined not to spend money to buy it. Just like this potato, he has opened more than an acre of land behind the school, and the potato he grows is enough for the whole school to feed for half a year.

The father and son dug up the yams, and Jiang Youliang picked up two bags with a pole, and Jiang Xiaoman put the rest in his back basket. When he got home, the two pigs raised by the family were so hungry that they banged their heads on the door of the pigsty.

Jiang Youliang hurriedly put down the pole and brought the pig food cooked in the morning to feed the pigs. Jiang Xiaoman took a few broken yams, washed them and took them to the kitchen to prepare dinner for the father and son.

I came back a bit late today, and there was no time to stew the rice. Jiang Xiaoman simply cut some bacon, boiled the pot first, then poured half a pot of water, boiled it, added a bag of vermicelli, cracked four eggs in it, and added salt before leaving the pot Season with chicken bouillon, sprinkle with a handful of chopped green onion, and a pot of simple and delicious bacon noodle soup is ready.

Cleaned fresh potatoes do not need to be peeled, sliced ​​and washed for later use, and moved out of the old pot at home, which contains pork boiled during the Chinese New Year. It will not be bad for a year. When you eat it, scoop out two spoonfuls, and it is very delicious when you use it to fry potato chips!

With just one simple dish, the father and son ate up half the pot of vermicelli, not even the soup left.

After eating, Jiang Youliang carried the dug potatoes back to the house, and dumped them on the ground to dry overnight, so that they would not spoil easily in the cellar.It is not easy to grow other food in the mountains. Only yams, sweet potatoes, and corn can be grown, and the yield is high, so their family grows these three things all year round. They are the most important staple food and vegetables for the whole family. .

Jiang Xiaoman was not idle either. The big bones he bought in the market in the morning were smashed open with an axe, cleaned and put in a large pot to simmer for several hours to get the oil out of the bones. Although these big bones have no meat, they are still boiled. The soup is still delicious. It can be cooked with noodles or pimple soup. Jiang Youliang is getting older, so eating more bone soup is good for his body.

Taking advantage of the stewing time, he simply edited the video he shot in the morning, and posted it to several registered short video platforms. Looking at the previous ones, the number of hits is still bleak, but it is said that Yanghaozi is Don't rush this kind of thing. I heard that some people even spend money to hire a team to write scripts, shoot and produce. If you are unlucky, it will take a long time to gain followers.

However, after drying the potatoes, Jiang Youliang still asked about his son's plans.

"Your Uncle Baichuan has also been discharged from the hospital. The school children are sent home by villagers. Xiaoman, if you want to stay in the city to find a job, you should go back to school." Jiang Youliang sat on the small bench by the door with his back bent On the way, he took out the cheap cigarettes in his coat pocket, lit one, and enjoyed it cherishedly.

In the past few years, he has often coughed, and his son has set a rule for him, no more than three cigarettes a day, but he is too tired to work during the day, and his bones always feel sore at night, and he keeps the last cigarette before going to bed. Enjoyed.

Smelling the familiar smell of cheap tobacco in the air, Jiang Xiaoman was silent for a while, then laughed and teased his father——

"Dad, didn't you always talk about it before, saying that the witches of our Jiang family showed me faces? I don't care how far I go in the exam, I must come back to my hometown in the future, and bring the villagers to make a fortune together..."

"That's the old Huangli from so many years ago!" Jiang Youliang sighed heavily, and looked up at the dark and endless mountain, "The clan witch has disappeared a few years ago, and now it is his Youngest son, I heard that he hides at home and plays that game all day long, and he doesn't show people a fortune teller or divination. Last time, he helped the village chief paint some slogans against feudal superstition on the wall..."

"Pfft~" Jiang Xiaoman sprayed out a mouthful of mint water.

"I was confused in the early years. The clan witch couldn't even see his own son. I found such a prodigal son to inherit the mantle. From now on, in our Langshan area, I don't think there will be any clan witches anymore!"

"When I brought you back back then, I was worried that you would not be able to support me. I wanted to carry you to the clan witch for a divination, but I didn't expect him to say that you would have great promise in the future, but he was right. You really passed the college entrance examination, hey! You really live up to Dad!"

"As for what he said will bring great prosperity to Langshan, let me see, just listen to it! We can't even grow rice in this mountain, so how can we have great prosperity and great prospects?"

"It's hard for you to be admitted to university, if you can stay in the city..."

"Dad, I don't want to stay in the city. I still want to come back." Jiang Xiaoman moved a small stool over at some point and sat beside Jiang Youliang. Not only did he move the stool, but he also moved a small stool. The brazier came over, picked up the ashes with a shovel, and buried a few fist-sized potatoes in it. After doing this, it seemed that he finally had the courage, and then he raised his head and looked at his father——

"Dad, do you know the chestnut ditch on the other side of our mountain? I heard that they have made a lot of money by planting mushrooms under the forest in the past two years."

"I've inquired about it. Some people in our village have relatives there. I plan to go to Chestnut Valley to have a look. Speaking of mountains and forests, we have much more forests here than there. If they can engage in under-forest economy, why can't we do it? ?”
