Entering the house, the second grandmother was also very happy to see Liu Qingshan coming. hurriedly lit a fire to boil water, preparing to knock a pot of good tea for Liu Qingshan.

The second grandmother is relatively thin, not tall, with short ear-length hair that is half white, and her face is full of old age spots and folds, and she looks older than her actual age.

Liu Qingshan said kindly: "Second grandma, don't be busy, take a rest, don't drink tea, just cook directly." I bought a bony fish and two pounds of pork. Let's just cook the rice. ”

The second grandmother refused, took care of the stove and said, "How can it be done? I don't even drink a cup of tea when I come, this is not a problem." ”

When you enter the house, you have to boil oil tea to entertain guests, which is the rule of the small mountain village, and it is also the rule of the vast majority of Yaoshan mountain people.

Of course, if it is a neighbor, who meets every day and visits every day, naturally there is no need to talk about this rule.

But Liu Qingshan has been out for almost a year, and it is not easy to come to the house, and the second grandmother will definitely take out her treasured Gu Yu tea to entertain Liu Qingshan.

The so-called Guyu tea is only the tea picked on the day of 'Guyu' in the 24 solar terms, which can be called Guyu tea.

In the south, especially the Yao mountain people in the south who have been making Camellia oleifera since ancient times, they will go into the mountains to pick Guyu tea every year on the day of Guyu, no matter what the weather is.

Guyu tea, also known as pre-rain tea, Erchun tea.

In spring, the temperature is moderate, the rainfall is abundant, and the tea tree has recuperated for more than half a year, the spring shoots and leaves become fat and fresh, the color is emerald green, the leaf quality is soft, and it is rich in a variety of vitamins and amino acids, so the taste of the oil tea made with Guyu tea is even more.

According to the old people, the camellia made from the tea leaves picked by Gu Yu on this day will have a more significant effect on detoxifying and removing fire, brightening the eyes and clearing the intestines than ordinary camellia.

Therefore, people cherish their own Gu Yu tea very much, and hide them as treasures, and only when the rare guests come to visit, the host is willing to take out the Gu Yu tea to entertain. And what they usually eat by themselves is oil tea made from ordinary tea leaves.

But Liu Qingshan didn't care about these very much, he just wanted the second grandmother to stop working.

The second grandmother refused.

The second grandfather also said while cleaning the green onions that had just been picked: "She is like this, you let her be busy, you just sit and wait for the tea." ”

Liu Qingshan wanted to sit and rest, but how could he sit.

The three little hairy children are standing on the side, can they sit safely?

Under the pressure of three pairs of bright eyes, Liu Qingshan obediently took out a pack of toffee that Liu Qingshan had never eaten from the plastic bag containing snacks and bought it with a huge amount of money, and gave one in his hand, and said: "You can only eat one toffee a day, do you know it? If you eat too much, your teeth will be broken." ”

The older two could understand, and they walked away with the toffee.

But the little one couldn't understand such a long sentence at all, so he stuffed the toffee into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and after swallowing it, he pointed to the toffee in Liu Qingshan's hand and shouted: "Sugar candy, sugar candy, the army eats sugar candy." ”

"I can't eat it. Liu Qingshan broke off his hand, looked at his big eyes, and said very seriously, "Junjun, listen to my brother's words, you can only eat one candy a day, otherwise your teeth will be broken, are you afraid?"

Probably the little guy was frightened, and he was stunned when he heard 'bad teeth'.

Liu Qingshan smiled proudly, thinking, Jiang is still old and spicy.

But in the next second, the little guy immediately cried, writhing while crying, and shouted in his mouth: "Sugar candy, sugar candy, sugar candy." ”

The posture of the ghost crying wolf and howling is definitely trembling, and those who see it are frightened.

Liu Qingshan tried to continue to reason with him: "Junjun, you can't eat so much sugar and sugar, your teeth are bad." ”

As he spoke, he tapped his finger at the little guy's mouth.

But the little guy started crying, who doesn't care if your teeth are bad or not, anyway, if you can't get sugar, this deafening cry won't stop.

Seeing that the reasoning was ineffective, Liu Qingshan, a single dog, had no choice but to surrender obediently, and distributed a candy to the little guy, and then quickly put the toffee on a high place, and said, "It's over, no." Go, go, go, Junjun. Let's hang out. ”

As he spoke, he forcibly took Junjun's hand and left the kitchen with the newly purchased toys.

The second grandmother's tea had just been brewed in the first pot, and the second uncle happened to come back.

The second uncle put down the firewood on his shoulder, and saw Liu Qingshan, who was grabbing toys with three children at the kitchen door, and said with a smile: "Qingshan, you are so old, why are you still grabbing toys with children." ”

Liu Qingshan said aggrievedly: "No, second uncle, they don't know how to play, I'll teach them how to play." ”

As soon as these words came out, Huihui and Xuanxuan immediately shouted: "Who said we wouldn't, we will." ”

With that, he grabbed it again.

The second grandfather shouted out from the kitchen: "Qingshan, ignore them, let them make trouble by themselves, come in and drink oil tea." ”

"Oh, okay. Second uncle, drink tea!"

After drinking tea, Liu Qingshan prepared dinner with his second uncle.

Two or three catties of bone fish and two catties of pork were all cooked in the pot, and the dishes and chopsticks had been set, but the uncle was not seen for a long time.

The eldest aunt is mute and can't speak, so no one knows where the uncle has gone.

However, the second grandfather guessed that it was estimated that he went to someone's house to play cards again, and he forgot the time.

"Leave him alone, let's eat ours. The second grandfather said angrily, "If you don't do anything serious all day long, you know what to do with cards and gamble, what are you waiting for him to do? ”

I ate at my second grandfather's house, and when I returned home, my parents were still eating.

However, when the old couple saw their son coming back, they hurriedly scrambled to pull the rice in the bowl clean, and then threw the dishes and chopsticks away, and ran to the living room to find their son.

The mother sat next to her son and asked expectantly, "Qingshan, tell your mother how much you sold today?"

Liu Qingshan saw that his mother was as eager as a hidden gentleman, so he couldn't help but tease her: "Oh, Mom, I don't know, I haven't counted it yet." ”

Hearing this, his father was so anxious that he couldn't do it: "You are stupid, how many catties of bamboo shoots did you sell today, and then multiplied by the unit price, isn't it the total price?"

"Oh. Liu Qingshan nodded as if he didn't understand, and said: "I sold 234 catties of bamboo shoots today, and the unit price is about 9.5 yuan a catty, Dad, you are so smart, you can help me calculate it." ”

When my father heard this, he quickly moved a small bench and sat down, pinched his fingers, and counted like a fortune teller: "I will calculate it, one by one gets one, one and two get two, two two gets four, two three gets six, and twenty-nine is eighteen...... 39...... Twenty-seven, four hundred and fifty-six......"

My father half-squinted, as if he felt that something was wrong.

He glanced at his smiling son, and suddenly realized: "Rabbit cub, make fun of your father." Tell me how much money I bought today. ”

"Hahaha. Liu Qingshan laughed, "Dad, you're really funny, you haven't learned math well, what's the matter with me." ”

"Qingshan, tell my mother how much it cost today. Mom went to clean up the table and wash the dishes. The mother pulled her son's hand, very eager.

Liu Qingshan didn't tease them anymore, and took out a plastic bag from his trouser pocket. As soon as the plastic bag was opened, a pile of banknotes immediately bloomed like a flower.

Looking at the neatly folded banknotes, the old couple's hearts were surging like huge waves.

To tell the truth, if Liu Qingshan didn't go out to work, the family would rely on his father to make money, except for food and clothing, he wouldn't be able to save a few hundred yuan in a year.

But the bills in front of me look like there are more than a thousand. Can this old couple not be excited?
