Chapter 75: Favoring One Over the Other
As soon as Canghai opened his eyes, he opened the curtains and found that the sun was already hanging high, a carp rolled up from the bed, got dressed, made up the bed, washed up and went out of the house, and then prepared to go to his own small vegetable garden to get some vegetables and make breakfast.
As soon as the iron head and the tiger head saw Canghai go out, they immediately came to the master's side and turned on the follower mode.
Cang Tao stretched out his hand and scratched the tiger's head, patted Tietou's head again, and walked down the slope with the two guys, opened the door of the chicken coop first, and sprinkled a few handfuls of millet at the door. At this time, the chicks and ducklings in the chicken coop have begun to slowly fade off the fluff on their bodies, and begin to emit thick feathers, but the growth is not very thorough, some of which are taken off, but the feathers have not grown out for a while, so some chicks are still bare.
However, the bare buttocks did not prevent them from running out to grab food, as soon as the door of the chicken coop opened, a group of chickens rushed out and grabbed a good position around Canghai to eat grain.
Last year, the old hen seemed very calm, pacing out of the chicken coop with easy steps, and from time to time sticking out her mouth to peck a grain from the gap left by the chicks.
The goose mixed in the flock grows much faster than the chicken, and it is twice as big as the chicks, and now it is almost time to change the moult, and the goose at this time is not good-looking, and there are a few coarse hairs on the original plush body, and the sea can't wait to reach out and pluck these hairs.
After feeding the chickens, Canghai turned his head to his own vegetable garden, and when he arrived at the mouth of the vegetable garden, Canghai opened the simple garden door, and as soon as he entered, he found that there were two roosters pecking at the vegetables in his own field.
"Oh, oh!" Canghai immediately began to make chickens.
The chicken seemed to like the vegetables of the Canghai family very much, and he was stunned to start a guerrilla fight with Canghai in the vegetable garden.
Canghai's vegetable garden is not small, but it is full of vegetables, which greatly restricts Canghai's play, on the contrary, a few chickens are flying around through the vegetable field, using the terrain of the vegetable field to fight guerrilla attacks with Canghai. When Canghai goes to the east, they go to the west, and when Canghai catches up with the west, they go to the east again, and after a few minutes, Canghai begins to gasp.
"Damn, let Lao Tzu catch you, you have to stew, you can't," Canghai said while panting and looking at a few chickens five or six meters away from him.
Canghai didn't move, the chicken didn't move, one foot stepped on the ground, one foot hung in the air, pecked at the vegetables from time to time, and then carefully looked at Canghai, keeping a lot of vigilance, as if preparing to deal with Canghai's next attack.
Canghai was thinking about how to get rid of these chickens, and when he inadvertently turned his head, he saw the tiger head and iron head stupidly at the door of the vegetable garden.
Seeing the stupid appearance of the two guys, Canghai suddenly felt a wave of anger suddenly from the soles of his feet to the door of his head.
"Look at what, hurry up and get these things out for me, I'm busy like a dog here, you two are good, enjoy Lao Tzu's Western scenery?
When Tiger Head and Iron Head heard this, they immediately jumped at several arrogant and lawless roosters.
The tiger head was stunned because Canghai did not allow it to touch the chicken, and when he was young, he was kicked by Canghai a few times because he bit the chicks, so the tiger head had a childhood shadow for chasing chickens, so when he entered the vegetable garden, he saw that the owner did not come up to help for the first time.
The iron head didn't know what the owner was messing with, and he thought that Canghai was playing peek-a-boo with the chicken, so he squatted at the door of the vegetable garden and scratched his head while thinking in his heart: Why is this person so idle today.
With the tiger's head and the iron head, the chickens immediately fell into the wind, and within a minute they knew that the garden could not stay any longer, and immediately spread their wings and flew out of the fence.
The chickens in the countryside are all free-range, and some chickens are very wild, and some chickens can fly to the half-height small branches to squat, and fly over the small vegetable garden of the Canghai Sea, which is really no big problem.
Of course, not all chickens can fly like this, those who can fly are the strongmen in the flock, and nine times out of ten are the big roosters kept by the villagers as breeders, just like the few left in Canghai's house.
"I'll go, my fence is still a little short!" Canghai saw a few roosters flying over his fence easily, and suddenly said to himself.
The fence dwarf is a little taller, and now the thorn tree has not grown up for a week, so Canghai has to find another way to hang the net pocket around his house a little higher.
After driving away the chicken, Canghai pulled two handfuls of chicken feathers in the vegetable garden, knocked the soil on the vegetable roots, and held them in his hands to prepare to cook noodles at home.
As soon as he got out of the vegetable garden, he saw Li Licheng, the grandfather of Li, walking towards him, the old man was wearing a washed white mountain hat on his head, wearing a thick fleece sweatshirt that had faded to almost gray-red on his upper body, a blue coat on his shoulders, and an old coarse cloth pants with two large patches on his knees, a pair of camouflage liberation shoes on his feet, and a sickle in his hand.
"Grandpa Li, what are you doing here?" Canghai greeted with a smile.
Li Licheng saw Canghai and immediately said: "Haiwazi, I'll go to your family's bamboo forest to cut a few bamboos, and prepare to take advantage of the rainy season to weave a few baskets or other baskets for your own use."
"Okay, you can cut it, anyway, there are a lot of bamboos" Canghai said without mind.
Last year, Canghai also planted seven or eight bamboos nearby, and this year's growth is very good, the tall ones are a few meters thick, as thick as a normal person's arm, and Canghai is not ready to count on bamboo to eat, so if Grandpa Li's family wants to cut a few plants, then cut a few.
"What about you, just about to make breakfast?" Li Licheng asked when he saw the chicken feather vegetables in Canghai's hand.
Canghai nodded: "Just get up, ready to order some noodles."
"Machine-made noodles are not as delicious as hand-rolled noodles," Li said.
"It's convenient!" Canghai smiled and waved his hand at Li Licheng, took his handful of chicken feather vegetables and walked to the house on the slope.
Before entering the house, I met Zhang Xiaolian, the daughter-in-law of Li Liren's son Li Quan.
"Second aunt, what are you doing here?" asked Cang Hai.
Zhang Xiaolian replied: "I went over there to see our head of the house, I went out to herd sheep in the morning, why haven't I come back yet, is it in the long grass?"
After speaking, he didn't wait for Canghai to say anything, and stretched out his hand with a smile and pointed to the iron head behind Canghai: "This monkey you raise walks like an old cadre."
Canghai turned his head when he heard this, and found that the iron head behind him was now following behind him with his hands behind his back, and Canghai couldn't help but laugh when he saw the appearance of the iron head.
"I don't know who I learned it from," said Akaido.
At this time, the iron head had his hands behind his back, and the original orangutan waist was arched, except for a body of hair, it really looked like some cadres in the town before.
"It is estimated that Grandpa Hu learned it, and there is no such habit in the village except for him" Zhang Xiaolian said with a smile and said: "Then you are busy with me going to find our master, and you don't know how to go home for dinner so late, are you stupid!"
Canghai saw that the second aunt turned around and went downhill, and he continued to raise his feet and walk towards his own kitchen on the slope.
When I returned home, I finished breakfast and was washing the dishes, when I suddenly saw Ping An coming to the door of the kitchen.
"Have you eaten?" asked Canghai.
Ping An didn't answer, and as soon as he reached the kitchen door, he squatted down, buried his head in his arm, and didn't know what to do without saying a word.
Canghai put down the bowl in his hand, wiped his hands with a towel: "What's wrong?"
"Second brother!"
As soon as Ping An looked up, Canghai found that the stupid boy's eyes were red, and his face was full of grievances.
Canghai hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
"My mother took my money away, saying that she wanted to say goodbye to her second brother and keep it as a bride ......price."
Hearing Canghai's question, Ping An immediately choked up and told the matter again.
When Ping An said this, Canghai understood, Ping An's mother Yan Meijuan took Ping An's money away, and prepared to give Ping An's younger brother to Ann to marry his daughter-in-law.
As for where Ping'an's money came from, it was naturally earned from Canghai last year, because he worked with Canghai for a long time and worked safely, so Canghai gave Ping'an a total of 20,000 yuan last year.
Don't underestimate 20,000 yuan, it can be regarded as a lot of money for a country boy, so Ping An usually collects and hides the bank card like a baby.
"How does your mother know that you have money in your hands, is it that you kid is too talkative?" asked Canghai.
When Ping An heard this, he immediately shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, I didn't mention this matter to my mother at all, but she came to my house early this morning and asked me for money, I didn't give it to her and beat me, I was afraid that my mother would be angry and gave the money to ......."
Ping An said as he burst into tears of grievance.
"Alas!" Canghai sighed lightly.
Stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Ping'an's head twice, Canghai really didn't know how to comfort Ping'an, because Ping'an's intelligence was slightly problematic, so he didn't invite his parents to see him, otherwise he wouldn't have left him in the countryside to suffer with Hu Shijie, the two liked the second son Lai'an.
Hu Lai'an's brain has no problem, in the eyes of Hu Mingshan and Yan Meijuan, the eldest son's life is over, fortunately, this second son has been 'smart and clever' since he was a child, so he has always pampered the second son to come to An, from food and clothing to use, everything is only to come to Anlai, and Ping'an's son is not good to say, it is like picking it up.
Canghai doesn't like to come to An, the so-called smart and clever in the eyes of Hu Mingshan and his wife is just a little clever in Canghai's eyes, and he is not smart enough to be on the point. In the words of the people in the village, it is a fake clever, always playing clever in front of others, where are there a few fools in this world, even if you are stupid last time, who will recruit you in the future?
It's just that Canghai can't say anything about this matter as an outsider, this is someone's own business, where is Canghai's turn to interject.
"Second brother, Ping'an's money is gone!" Ping'an was very sad.
Canghai had to say to Ping'an: "It's okay, follow the second brother to earn it again in the future, but this time you can't be known by your mother anymore!"
"Hmm!"
As soon as Ping An heard that the money could be earned, he immediately burst into tears and laughed, and after a hum, he wiped a handful of tears and happily teased the iron head, the tiger head, and the guys played.
