Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the afternoon, Liu Junhao accompanied Zhang Qian and the others for a long walk around the mountain. Everything these girls saw was strange and they kept walking and stopping.

    When Suna Na saw a hornet's nest as big as a bowl above her head, she kept urging Liu Junhao to get it down. She wanted to eat honey.

    Liu Junhao was almost speechless. This was the first time he heard of people wanting to eat horse honey. Wasps do not produce honey at all unless they eat pupae.  But he had only heard that wasp pupae could be eaten.  Although it was a high-end thing, every time he saw the little flesh-worm-like thing squirming in the hive, he had some psychological barriers.

    Sure enough, when he told them the suggestion of eating wasp pupae, several girls shook their heads. It seems that eating this kind of food requires a certain psychological quality.

    Zhang Qian had been to the mountains several times, so she knew a little about the wild vegetables and fruits in the mountains, so she took a few close friends to pick a big bun of Shanlihong.  Everyone was grinning when they tasted the sourness, but after the sourness, there was a hint of sweetness, which was very refreshing.

    This stuff strengthens the spleen and appetite, and can also be cooked in rice porridge.  Liu Junhao also made a lot. He was just going to take it back to make porridge. He wanted to make some when Pang Xu ate Jishi last time, but the weather was too hot, so he didn't think about it. Today, he happened to have this opportunity.  .

    We didn¡¯t see any big animals along the way. Liu Junhao didn¡¯t let Xiaopi get up and chase the few little rabbits he met because they were too small to eat.

    When he got home, he saw two cars parked at the door. As soon as he looked at the license plates, he knew that it was Zhao Weidong and his wife who were bringing people over.

    Sure enough, as soon as he reached the entrance of the courtyard, he saw Xiao Haoyu running towards him, shouting: "Uncle Liu, we have something for you."

    "What are you giving me?" Liu Junhao hugged him, put his arms around the little guy's waist and wheeled him around in mid-air for a few times before letting him down, and then greeted Zhao Weidong and the others.

    This time more people came, including Zhao Weihong, his wife, and their daughter. Along with them was Professor Zhao¡¯s wife, a kind-hearted old lady.

    There were two more children, and now the yard was completely lively. Liu Junhao took out the freshly picked mountain reds for them to eat. He was also about to go into the house to hold a flower-skinned melon, but was stopped by Professor Zhao and said that  The thing is too cold.

    "Uncle Liu, guess what we gave you? Guess quickly!!" Xiao Haoyu looked at Liu Junhao with a mysterious and expectant look.

    "You have to tell me a range before you let Uncle Liu guess, otherwise who can guess it?" Zhao Weihong teased his nephew.

    "Well, that thing is a household appliance. It lights up as soon as you press it"

    "Flashlight?" Liu Junhao deliberately said an impossible answer, and everyone laughed immediately. It seemed that they all still remembered Zhao Benshan's sketch.

    "No, no" the little guy kept shaking his head, insisting that Liu Junhao continue to guess.

    He guessed several times but failed to get it right. Finally, Xiao Haoyu announced the answer. It turned out that they had sent a computer.

    Liu Junhao looked at the brand-new thing on the table and said nothing. This gift was too heavy for him, costing several thousand yuan. Besides, there is no Internet access here, so this computer was just a decoration for him.

    The gift of a computer was the result of a discussion between Zhao Weidong and his sister. His father had lived and ate for free for so long. Of course they, as children, were embarrassed, so they wanted to buy something for Liu Junhao.

    They discussed for a long time before deciding to send a computer. This thing is so useful that you can understand the outside world without leaving home.  In their opinion, Liu Junhao must be very happy to give this thing, so the two families thought about it and pooled their money to buy a medium-sized computer.

    They didn¡¯t discuss it with Professor Zhao before sending it, so they took advantage of the National Day holiday to bring it here.

    Seeing Liu Junhao¡¯s firm refusal, Professor Zhao adopted a compromise approach and said that he would leave it with him first and wait until his own house was built.

    ¡°Then Xiao Haoyu pulled Liu Junhao and said he wanted to teach him to play computer, and let a child teach him. This was indeed a bit embarrassing.  His brain is easy to use at a young age, so he learns very quickly. He quickly learned some basic operations under the guidance of Xiao Haoyu.

    Of course, typing is no different from that of a beginner. It¡¯s the classic two-finger meditation, where you put your head on the keyboard to find letters.

    Children are always enthusiastic about everything. After being taught for a while, they became impatient and ran out to play. Soon, the sound of two children playing in the yard was heard again. Liu Junhao ran out after hearing this.

    But I saw that the parents of the two families were fighting. After asking, I found out that the reason was the two turtle doves raised by Professor Zhao.

    It turns out that the little girl became interested when she saw these two little turtle doves.?Cracked the spiced melon seeds I brought one by one and put them in my hands to feed them.

    This turtle dove had been raised since she was a child, so she was not afraid. It landed on her arm and pecked it gently, making the little girl giggle. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. At the end of the day, she even said that she would take the two turtle doves back.  keep.  As a result, Xiao Haoyu happened to hear this sentence when he came out, saying that the turtledove was his, so the two children started to argue.

    At first, the adults didn¡¯t pay attention, and it wasn¡¯t until the two little guys started to move their hands that they hurriedly pulled them away. After the parents comforted them for a while, the two little guys played their own way.

    The children's hatred came and went quickly. They were soon attracted by the group of half-grown water ducks in the yard. Each of them grabbed a handful of rice grains and threw them on the ground, making the water ducks chirp incessantly.  However, due to Liu Junhao's instructions in advance, the two little guys did not dare to attract their attention, because there was an old hen watching eagerly next to them.

    When the holidays were over, the younger generation returned to the city one after another, and calm returned to the yard again.  Professor Zhao's wife, however, stayed. After a few days of adaptation, she also liked this place. She also understood why her husband did not want to live in the house in the city, but he encouraged her to come here to retire.

    The dogs barking in the yard, the water ducks squeezing around the old hens for food, the smoke rising from the village all of this is so peaceful and warm, it is indeed a good place for retirement!

    Professor Zhao¡¯s wife¡¯s surname is Wang. She was a high school teacher before retiring. The old man is also a restless person. He only stayed here for a week and wanted to find a job.  She happened to hear that there was a shortage of teachers in the village, so she immediately took up the job as a teacher at Liujiagou Primary School, and she also agreed to get no salary.  Now Zhang Qian's workload has been reduced a bit, and her life is much more leisurely.

    The villagers were naturally very grateful for her behavior and sent many things to Liu Junhao one after another.  When Professor Zhao was building a house, many people came over to help without even asking.

    ¡°Building houses for people in your own village is usually free of charge. This is Liujiagou¡¯s tradition, because this kind of help is mutual, and sooner or later your family will have to build a house.  Although Professor Zhao is an outsider, the villagers treat him as a member of their own village, and they all agree that he does not need to be paid and only needs to take care of the food.

    Professor Zhao¡¯s house is located next door to Liu Junhao¡¯s. Anyway, this area is a piece of grassland, so you can build whatever you want.  When the ground was broken, Liu Junhao also carried a shovel and went up to help.

    To build a house, you must first dig the foundation. After drawing the outline of the foundation with lime, they started digging with shovels. At the beginning, Liu Laosan even laughed at Liu Junhao because he had never worked hard. He must not be able to dig the foundation. He insisted on competing with him.  .  With the encouragement of a group of people, Liu Junhao also took off his shirt and competed with him naked.

    Liu Junhao swung the shovel like a small excavator, whirring, and in less than an hour, a deep trench was dug, while Liu Laosan had just started.

    The people who came to help were all dumbfounded, saying that this guy didn't look very good at ordinary times, but he didn't expect that he turned out to be a jerk when it came to working.  Cow bump is another name for a calf here. Before it is put on the nose ring, its momentum is very strong. Even three or four people can't stop it.

    Liu Laosan had no choice but to admit defeat after seeing it. Although he was digging desperately, he still didn't have half of what others had.

    Professor Zhao, as the host, of course has been greeting everyone here, constantly serving tea and water, and spreading cigarettes for everyone.

    At noon, everyone ate in Liu Junhao¡¯s yard. As soon as they washed their hands and sat down in the house, Teacher Wang and Zhang Qian brought two large pots of vegetables into the house.

    At first, Teacher Wang wanted to use a plate, but Professor Zhao dissuaded him. He knew that people here don¡¯t care about appearance, as long as they can eat enough.  Do as the Romans do when you are in the country, and using a pot to store it seems more practical.

    So Teacher Wang and Zhang Qian went to the market early in the morning and bought more than 20 kilograms of meat and other cooked food for cooking. There was no need to worry about vegetables, as Liu Junhao had plenty in his yard.

    The big meat is fragrant and oily with every bite, and it goes very well with the meal. Even after being tired for a long time, everyone didn¡¯t refuse and started eating the white steamed buns.
