Chapter 026, Bamboo Building
"Grandpa, I'll get it. Seeing that his grandfather was going to cook, Ye Ziqi hurriedly stepped forward and said that he asked his grandfather to take Junjie to play at the door, tie an apron and start cooking.
Now that the conditions have improved, the countryside has also used tap water and natural gas, and it is very convenient to use rice cookers for cooking and natural gas for stir-frying.
Just three people, I didn't cook much during the leaf period, fried a lean shredded pork, fried eggplant, cooked a loofah soup, and then took a cucumber mixed with soy sauce, and the lunch of three dishes and one soup was good.
And the time is only half past twelve, three generations sit down to eat, although Junjie is only two or three years old, but he can already eat by himself, but he needs the help of adults to pick up dishes for him.
Grandpa's teeth fell out a bit, but he was still able to eat shredded meat, of course, his favorite food was fried eggplant, and only a few small pieces of cucumber were tasted.
After lunch, Ye Ziqi asked Junjie to go up to the second floor to watch TV, and when he was tired of watching it, he knew that he was sleeping in bed, while his grandfather was sitting at the door smoking Ye Zi cigarettes, and the thick smell of smoke spread in the yard.
After Ye Ziqi shook the bowl, he saw that the time was only half past one, and he did not start the live broadcast immediately, at this point in time, the audience was basically on a lunch break, and few people watched.
"Grandpa, do you have all this all day now?" Ye Ziqi sat down at the door and chatted with his grandfather.
"I got up in the morning to pick some food and came back, I started to make it up after breakfast, and I had to get up and walk for a while, and now I have to sit for a long time and my back hurts, and I don't dare to keep making it. Later in the afternoon, I have to go back to walk on the road for a while, and at night I won't make it up if I can't see clearly. The outsider said quietly, but he couldn't hide a look called loneliness.
Ye Ziqi has two uncles, and now they have moved to the city, but his grandfather has been reluctant to go to the city.
Even if he asked his grandfather to go to his daughter's house, he was not used to living in Yeziqi's house, but it was better than in the city, but he often wanted to go back to his hometown after staying for three or four days.
Because there are villagers he is familiar with, although there are few old people who are his age now, and most of the neighbors around him only have old people and children at home, but he is still willing to come back.
A few years ago, when the grandchildren had not grown up, there was always the laughter of children at home, but later the cousins and cousins of the two uncles' families grew up, and the people who went out to study and worked part-time slowly started a family outside, and the hometown was even more deserted.
And his grandfather Li Guangzheng's health has always been better, and he can't be idle, so he picked up the craftsmanship of his youth, and began to weave some bamboo tools to sell in the town, and every three days, he can often sell dozens of yuan of bamboo tools, he is also very happy, because it is his own hands to earn money.
"And how long do you have to make it up?" Ye Ziqi asked.
"I can't move until the day. When you can't move, then don't make it up. Third child, aren't you going back to the city?" Ye Ziqi has been back for ten days, although he has not come to his grandfather's place, but his mother Li Yuqin usually talks to his grandfather on the phone and talks about him.
"Well, I want to come back and start a company and make my own business. Ye Ziqi had nothing to hide in front of his grandfather, and told him all about his failure to open a company outside.
"Well, I have to get it while I'm young, I also traveled north and south when I was young, and it's also good to see the world more and face it in the future. Grandpa actually said so.
"Grandpa, I want to stay here with you for a few days and learn how to weave these things with you. After chatting for a while, Ye Ziqi said.
"What's the use of learning this? Now that the countryside is slowly using these less, will it delay your business?" said my grandfather slowly, knocking on the cigarette stick.
"Grandpa, weaving bamboo is also a traditional craft, our Chinese nation for thousands of years, how many generations have relied on this craft to live. So I didn't learn this for anything else, but to introduce this traditional craft to everyone through live streaming in the process of learning, so that everyone should not forget what was passed down from our ancestors. Ye Ziqi said with a smile.
"Okay. If you want to get this idea, then you can learn from me. Grandpa grinned, he regarded this craft as his lifelong ability to eat, but there are not many people who recognize it, his grandson attaches so much importance to it, and he wants to introduce it to everyone through the live broadcast, which is very happy for him.
"Grandpa, don't worry, let's start with choosing good bamboo, then cutting bamboo strips, and then weaving the same kind of bamboo tools, if you can, I also want my grandfather to guide me to make a few bamboo furniture." ”
Ye Ziqi has a learning card, of course, he believes that he can learn to weave bamboo tools, but his idea is not only like this, but also wants to learn to make bamboo furniture, and these are the best crafts of his grandfather when he was young.
"Okay, okay, if the third child is willing to learn this, then my grandfather will not take it underground in the future. "Grandpa was very happy.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Ziqi started the live broadcast again, and at this time, his grandfather was weaving an unfinished basket in the yard, and he decided to take everyone to see the bamboo house made by his grandfather.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the place where I am now is my grandfather's house. The house next to it was built by my uncles, and the small house you see now is the bamboo house that my grandfather built when he was young.
Please come with me to take a look, this bamboo building has two floors, it used to be where my grandparents lived for thirty or forty years, and my uncle and my mother were born and raised in this bamboo building.
Let's take a look at this wall, although the color is a little dark, but all of them are bamboo, but they are not ordinary bamboo, but a kind of big bamboo called Nanzhu on the mountain behind, which is generally as thick as the mouth of the bowl.
Now let's come in and take a look, this old house has not been inhabited for many years, so there are some miscellaneous items piled up underneath, but everyone also looks at these tables and stools, all of which are made of bamboo.
There is also a staircase on this side, which is also made of bamboo nailed, and I lived on the second floor when I was a child, and now there is a cabinet and several boxes on it, as well as an old bed, all of which are made of bamboo. ”
Ye Ziqi made the camera give a close-up of the various furniture, although the color of the furniture is dull, but it is still obvious that it is made of bamboo, which shocked many viewers.
"Oh my God, although I know bamboo and know that bamboo has a wide range of uses, I never thought that bamboo has such a wide range of uses and can be used to make so many furniture. ”
"I always thought that all the furniture in the countryside was made of wood, but after watching the live broadcast of the anchor today, I realized that bamboo can also be used to make furniture, and it can also build houses, and the role is really too great. ”
"I just checked, it turns out that bamboo was the most used thing by the common people in history, not only bamboo shoots can be eaten, bamboo leaves can also be boiled to prevent heatstroke, bamboo shells and bamboo leaves can be burned as firewood, and bamboo is almost all treasured. ”
"That's not it, there are a lot of bamboo written in ancient poems, and there are four gentlemen and three friends of the year, and bamboo can be said to be the most important item for human beings. A lot of people left comments below.
