Chapter 36: Drinking and bragging
Wang Jinshan was born in Changchun, and the ginseng of Changbai Mountain is the most famous, so he knew at a glance that the wild ginseng soaked in Wu Mingzhai's wine bottle.
"Oh! my brother is really well-informed!" Wu Mingzhai's eyes widened, thinking that he really didn't see the wrong person, this Wang Jinshan is really well-informed, and he is not at the same level as these old men around him.
"Old Angkor praised it, I was born in the Northeast, I am very familiar with this kind of thing, when I was a child, I followed adults to dig ginseng in the mountains, and experienced ginseng pickers will follow the traces of the mallet bird to determine the location of wild ginseng!" Wang Jinshan said vividly.
"What is a mallet bird?" Lao Sun was flushed with drink, and looked at Wang Jinshan with small eyes.
"In the primeval forest of the Northeast, wild ginseng is also called mallet, when the mallet seeds are red, there is a bird that eats the seeds of wild ginseng, this bird is also called the mallet bird, after the mallet bird eats the seeds, the seeds inside can germinate after fermentation, the bird pulls out the seeds, and sows the wild ginseng into the corners and corners of the primeval forest, and in the long run, the primeval forest will continue to grow wild ginseng!"
"Wow! Lao Wang, you are really knowledgeable and talented! You see Lao Li's eyes straight!" Wu Mingzhai laughed.
"Brother, your ginseng is at least three or two, it's really a good thing!"
My son-in-law is also from the Northeast, and he said that this parameter is worth tens of thousands! Although my son is not short of money, he may not be able to buy real things if he has money!
"That's really, this kind of good thing is hard to come by!" Wang Jinshan drank all the ginseng wine, he couldn't let go of such a good opportunity, don't look at himself as a Northeasterner, he really hasn't drunk such a good wine.
"It's my girl, she really turned her elbow outward, and almost gave my ginseng to her third uncle!" Wu Mingzhai also drank the wine.
"Come on, come on!" Lao Cui hurriedly picked up the wine bottle and poured wine for everyone.
"Hey, I said Lao Cui, you're really a thief! Look at my wine, I really want to take the opportunity to drink two more cups, right?" Wu Mingzhai is not stupid, such a good wine is taken out to entertain Wang Jinshan, just taste it alone, why is it endless?"
"Hehe, old Wu, you're stingy too! It's not good things to come in pairs!" Lao Cui said as he hurriedly poured another glass for everyone.
"You old boy!" Wu Mingzhai hurriedly snatched his precious ginseng wine and put it in the wine cabinet, "You can't drink too much good wine, I'm afraid you can't afford this blessing!"
"Oh! There are three of our brothers, and my second brother is a person with a lot of income, a county-level cadre, and his retirement salary is nearly 10,000 yuan!"
"Old Wu, don't brag nonsense! The mayor doesn't have 10,000 yuan for retirement!" said Lao Cui disdainfully.
"Do you know the mayor? Did the mayor show you his salary slip? Or did the mayor show you that his savings were folded?" Wu Mingzhai was unconvinced.
At that time, my daughter came to see me, and my son-in-law gave me this ginseng, but my daughter wanted to give this ginseng to her second uncle, and you said that I was not angry!"
"Aren't you sorry for your second brother? Isn't it right to give him ginseng to nourish his body?" Lao Li is a real person, and what he said is also true.
"His illness is no longer cured, isn't it a waste to eat this? The next day I will soak this ginseng in wine, so that my daughter will not be given to her second uncle when she gets sick one day!"
"It's really yours!" Wang Jinshan couldn't help laughing.
"Oh, it's all fake!" Lao Cui glanced at Wu Mingzhai with disdain.
"If you want to say that my son is filial, I just had a cerebral thrombosis at that time, my son spent 300 yuan a day to hire a nurse for me, and I was properly served, and when my condition stabilized, I spent tens of thousands of yuan to send me to a nursing home run by his comrades-in-arms, which has a special rehabilitation therapist, otherwise my condition is so serious, can I recover to this level!"
Wu Mingzhai didn't care about Lao Cui's expressions at all, and was immersed in his own world and couldn't extricate himself.
"That is, nothing is better than a filial son!" Lao Li sighed enviously!
"Lao Wang, you are from the Northeast, tell me about the new things over there!" Lao Sun didn't speak for a long time, it seemed that he was tired of listening to Wu Mingzhai's boasting, and hurriedly wanted to change the topic.
"That place in the northeast, it seems that the climate and environment are harsh, but it is indeed a treasure land!" Wang Jinshan couldn't hold back his desire to brag for a long time, and now he seized the opportunity and began to talk endlessly.
"Especially in summer, the sky is blue, it's gone!" Wang Jinshan's face was full of intoxication.
"Look at the pollution now, it's hard to see the blue sky!" Lao Li couldn't help but interject.
"Don't interrupt! Listen to Lao Wang!" Wu Mingzhai was interested.
"When I was a child, I was used to lawlessness, one year during the summer vacation, I played in the field, the fields were colorful, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, I was catching butterflies and dragonflies, and when I was tired of playing, I lay down under the tree and fell asleep!"
Wang Jinshan's face was full of exaggerated expressions, "Where do you guess I fell asleep?"
"Isn't it under a tree?"
"I think there are ants and insects on the grass, and I want to find something to spread on, and there is a cemetery next to it, which is very old, and some of the graves are deserted, and the coffin board is scattered, so I found a clean piece and wiped the soil, and lay on it and fell asleep!"
"Oh my God, Lao Wang, you are too bold, how old were you at that time?" Wu Mingzhai was full of surprise.
"Seven or eight years old! When I woke up, it was dark, and there was a big dog lying in front of the coffin board, breastfeeding four or five puppies, those puppies should not be full moon, and their eyes were not open, but they were just eating vigorously, and they looked very cute!"
"There were a lot of wild dogs in those years, and it was not unusual!" Lao Cui began to disdain again.
"Who said it wasn't, I just squatted there and watched, and after a while, my brother and my sister came out looking for me, and my sister saw me from afar, so she waved to me, and I wanted to see the puppy for a while, but I was afraid that my sister would be in a hurry, so I walked to her!"
Wang Jinshan pretended to be mysterious and continued: "When I came to me, my sister and my brother took me by the hand and ran forward desperately, making me baffled, until I ran home, my sister told me while panting, saying that what I saw just now was not a dog at all, but a wolf!"
"Ahh
"Oh, Wang, you can blow better than Lao Wu!" Lao Cui took advantage of Wang Jinshan's whiteness, picked and ate the meat in the dish, and at this moment he burped and stood up satisfied, "I suddenly remembered that there was something else at home, so I took a step first!"
"Then let's go first, you two brothers will continue to talk!" Lao Li and Lao Sun were not far behind, and they also walked away under Lao Cui's shadow.
"Old Angkor, let me tell you, I can't finish the naughty things I did when I was a child, and I can't finish talking about them for three days and three nights!"
"Hurry up and talk about it, these guys will slip away when they are full, every time they are like this, just right! There are only two of us left, they are not here to talk freely, and I will tell you about my childhood in a while, that guy! That's the danger! How do I think we are two brothers!"
Wu Mingzhai laughed, the two old men got together, chatting while drinking, so happy!
