Chapter Seventy-Five: Hospitable Brothers
"Brother Amin, don't you see this big deal!"
Half an hour later, Xiaoxue ran to Zhou Min to show off with a half-human-tall bamboo shoot.
Zhou Min was taken aback at first, then shook his head, and said with a regretful face: "The one you dug is too old to eat." ”
"Huh, can't you eat it, it's been a waste of my efforts, you bad thing!" Xiaoxue threw the bamboo shoots to the ground with a frustrated face, and kicked them in frustration.
Zhou Min looked at the ground, the bamboo shoots had filled two baskets, and said, "The bamboo shoots are almost dug up, let's go to the back mountain to play." ”
"Okay! I'm going to see the pheasant!" Xiaoxue immediately lifted her spirits again, and slapped her palms happily.
"I want to see too, I haven't seen what a pheasant looks like!"
"I'm going to pick fruits, Brother Amin, you teach me to tell which fruits I can eat!"
"I'm going to learn too!"
Zhou Min agreed with a smile, put the dug bamboo shoots in place, and carried the remaining empty bamboo baskets along the path to the back mountain.
Chen Li walked behind them, looking at the environment in the back mountain.
There are indeed a lot of good things here as Zhou Min said, pear trees, hawthorn trees, bayberry trees, and all kinds of fruit trees.
But this is not the wild fruit in Zhou Min's mouth, it was obviously planted by someone!
She felt a little strange in her heart, looked at Zhou Min, and found that Zhou Min had climbed to the tree and shook the fruitful bayberry branches, so she hurriedly walked over and said, "Amin, come down quickly, we haven't gotten anyone's consent yet!"
"It's okay, these trees belong to my brother's family, and he doesn't agree with me hitting him...... Ahem, my brother is hospitable, and he will agree if I ask, but he's not at home now, so I'll talk to him when I get back. ”
Hey, you definitely wanted to say that you would get him to agree, right?
Chen Li's eyes widened, and she couldn't bear to complain.
At this time, Zhou Min had already jumped down from the bayberry tree, told a few little girls to pick up the bayberry, raised his head, and looked at the pear tree full of yellow, orange and orange fruits not far away: "Look at those golden pears, it seems that they can already be eaten, I'll pick some for you to taste!" After speaking, he carried a bamboo basket on his back to the tree, and the basket was filled in a while.
Chen Li's eyelids jumped when she looked under the tree: "Is this a little picked...... What is one point of your understanding?"
Zhou Min looked at the basket, as if he had just found it, showed a surprised expression, and said, "I picked a little too much carelessly." However, these pears are already ripe, and if we don't pick them, they will be wasted, and if we can't eat them, we will sell them to the director team, so they can be more expensive than corn. ”
"Look, it's just not a pheasant!" Xiaoxue suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, there was a pheasant with gorgeous feathers standing on the treetop of the hawthorn tree, with a brass-colored head, a purple-green neck, and long brown tail feathers, very beautiful.
"It's beautiful!"
"Uh-huh, it's so beautiful!"
A few little girls cried out in surprise, and when they wanted to get closer to watch, they suddenly smashed a golden pear, and the pheasant didn't even have time to react, and with a muffled "cluck" sound, it was planted from the canopy.
"Yikes!"
Chen Li screamed, and then saw Zhou Min running over to pick up the dying pheasant, and said: "All the pheasants in this neighborhood were raised by my brother's family before, and they have to run away a lot every year." I wanted to help him catch this one back and trap it, but I didn't expect it to be too heavy, and it was beaten into internal injuries, so I had to take it back to make roast chicken. ”
Chen Li looked at Zhou Min in amazement, and saw the scene of the devil entering the village in the movie in a trance, crying and laughing: "When your brother comes back, I really have to 'thank' you for ......"
Zhou Min waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, there is no need to be so polite between brothers, it would be too much to say thank you." ”
Xiaoxue next to her swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Brother Amin, you are so kind, let's find out if there are any pheasants nearby, and help your brother catch two more and go back." ”
The other little girls also said yes again and again, making Chen Li feel that they were about to be led astray by Zhou Min, and she was afraid that she would not be able to explain to the coach when she went back, so she hurriedly said: "It's almost time to go back, don't let Teacher Huang and them wait." ”
"Oh, forget that Mr. Huang is still waiting for bamboo shoots! Then let's go back first, and come back in the afternoon when we have time." ”
Zhou Min handed the pheasant to Chen Li, carried a basket full of pears, lifted a basket of bayberry in one hand, and returned to the original road with a few little girls.
Come back in the afternoon?!
Chen Li stood in place in a daze, looking at the half-dead pheasant in her hand, and sympathized with Zhou Min's brother in her heart......
"Wow, where did you get all this stuff?"
Seeing Zhou Min and their harvest come back with their things, Huang Jinsong couldn't close his mouth in surprise.
Zhou Min took off the frame, wiped his sweat, and said, "I got it on the mountain, take it to the director team to offset the account." ”
Huang Jinsong suddenly became happy and shouted at the director: "Director, how much do you think these things are worth?"
The director discussed with the choreographer next to him and said, "200 yuan, no more." ”
"How much? I didn't hear clearly, director, tell me again!"
Huang Jinsong was about to take off his shoes and smash people again, but the director smiled and quickly flashed to the side.
Zhou Min couldn't help frowning and said, "How can it be so cheap? If we only give 200, it is better for us to sell it ourselves." ”
The director smiled and said, "If it's too little, you can sell it yourself." ”
Zhou Min glanced at Huang Jinsong and said, "200 is really too little, these three boxes of things add up to more than 150 catties, and they can be sold for at least 500 yuan." ”
Huang Jinsong was surprised: "500 yuan! It's enough money to buy ingredients today! I just wanted to bargain for 300, but fortunately you reminded me early!"
After speaking, he looked at the director viciously: "If Amin didn't know the market, we would be cheated by you again, director, you are not black-hearted!"
The director smiled, ignored him, and went back to the shed where the film crew was resting.
Huang Jinsong couldn't help him, glared at his back depressedly, and said to Zhou Min: "You guys rest for a while, wait for Teacher He and the others to come back, and go down the mountain to sell the fruit together." ”
Zhou Min nodded, went to the faucet and washed his face, and chatted with a few little girls in the yard.
After a while, Zhou Min heard the sound of conversation outside the door, and thought it was He Kun and they came back, but when the door was pushed open, he found that it was a man and a woman who didn't know each other.
"Hey, it's so lively here!" the girl said with a smile to her male companion.
The male companion nodded, leaned his hands to his mouth, and shouted exaggeratedly: "Teacher Huang, Zixi and I have come to see you!"
Huang Jinsong heard the voice and walked out, and when he saw that it was Hu Xiaochuan and his student Yang Zixi, he was immediately happy: "I just said who is so easy to deal with, order a sour and hot potato shreds and it's over, it turns out to be the two of you!"
Don't be idle when you come, divide the three baskets of fruit into small portions, and carry them down the mountain to sell later. ”
Hu Xiaochuan said angrily: "Don't tell me about sour and hot shredded potatoes, I'll be angry when I mention it!" I obviously wanted to report the name of the dish to create a happy atmosphere, and finally finished reading it again, but the person who answered the phone was stunned and said that he didn't hear it clearly, so let me report it again. I was so confused that I ordered shredded potatoes, and he took it seriously!"
Yang Zixi coquettishly said to Huang Jinsong with an aggrieved face: "Teacher Huang, you don't know, I haven't even ordered yet, and it has become the same shredded potatoes and rice as Lao Hu." I don't care, I'm going to eat the sweet and sour pork ribs you made today~"
Huang Jinsong said before that there was no one so easy to deal with, and they were scolded back by Zhou Min, so he glanced at Zhou Min happily, and said to the two people in front of him: "Our mushroom house only accepts telephone orders, who can you blame if you don't make it clear on the phone?"
He was accustomed to slapping a sweet date to eat, and when he saw that the faces of the two people instantly collapsed, he said: "In this way, you can sell the fruit later, if it can be sold out, I will let you have a barbecue dinner with the girls of the flower swimming team." ”
Only then did the two regain their spirits, and assured excitedly: "Teacher Huang, don't worry, we will definitely sell out these fruits!"
