Chapter 289: I don't understand
Silicon Valley is still on the 23rd of the lunar calendar, and Feng Jiachong has reached the 24th of the lunar calendar-
The factories in the village and town have been closed, and those who have opened shops and done business outside have also returned home one after another.
That is, this year, the last family in the whole house also moved into a new house, the original messy adobe houses in the courtyard disappeared, and the dark river that was originally covered by various houses finally saw the light of day.
Along the small river, two rows of golden cinnamon were transplanted.
From this point of view, the rich Feng Jiachong people are still very pragmatic, when someone mentioned yƬ planting willow trees, they liked its kind of elegant, of course, they don't say the word elegant, they just think that its branches dance in the wind, good-looking.
However, more people like osmanthus, in late autumn, not only the dark fragrance floats, the key is that its flowers can be used to roast tea.
The willow tree, on the other hand, is only a purely ornamental species.
By the river, we also used some materials to demolish the old house, such as roof beams, green bricks, and old tiles, to build a long corridor, and there are two rows of benches under the corridor, which is another leisure place.
When the weather is warm, those who like to eat outside with a bowl of rice will crowd the promenade to the brim, while eating, it is very lively.
After the renovation of the old village, the vacated large area, plus the original grain drying field, was also leveled and paved with large floor tiles, forming a square of thousands of square meters.
This square, which is now in the center of the city, is surrounded by elegantly shaped street lamps, and in the middle, there is a high lamp.
There are many ideas about this square, and the young people want to build a fountain like some squares in the city, but the old people are interested in this idea. Not at all, they prefer to build a sculpture or something, but there are various opinions on what kind of sculpture it is.
In this matter, the fourth uncle, as the village head, is very democratic and is ready to take advantage of the end of the year when everyone is at home. Ask for everyone's opinions, and then go with the plan that the majority likes.
But in this meeting, this square is the world of children, they are no longer like Feng Yiping when he was a child, before and after the Chinese New Year, only firecrackers can be played, but like the children in the city, wearing roller skates and helmets. Strap on protective gear and rollerblade in the square.
There are also riding children's bicycles, playing scooters, playing remote control cars and ********, from the perspective of these children's entertainment, compared with Feng Yiping's generation of rolling hoops, spinning tops, hopscotch, shuttlecock kicking, etc., it can be said that it has spanned several eras at once, and finally synchronized with the current trend of the times.
It was the same as Feng Yiping. These children are also not afraid of the cold.
These children are the most energetic. It's the old people who don't have all their teeth, and the children are having fun, and they're happy to see it.
Although the living conditions have been greatly improved, the old people still retain many of their original lifestyles, such as preferring to gather together......
It's the descendants who should love to be lively. Many are now confined to their homes, watching TV, playing on the computer, or simply sleeping in.
Today, though, is a specialty. In the pond next to the square, many people took turns to put on the water support, prop up the bamboo raft that was tied, and cast a few nets in the middle of the pond.
It was originally quite strict and laborious, but they turned it into an entertainment project.
The fish is not evenly distributed to everyone, if it is divided, there will always be people who are not satisfied, the type, the size or something, simply sell it at the market price, and then put the money from the sale into the public account in the mound.
Now it's Wen Hui's turn to hold the boat, his brother Wenhua cast a net, Wenhua cast a net decently, and in everyone's laughter, a rotten wood was netted, "Wenhua, why is the level so stinky? I will follow your uncle next year, this ability is not good," many people on the pond laughed at him.
After two years in the army, they are both ten years old, and their brothers are not the two children they were at the beginning, and they faced these good-natured ridicules with a calm expression, "It's too early to say this, can't you still cast a net?"
Wenhua spotted a place with a lot of blisters, and went down another net, and when he slowly closed the net upward, the net suddenly fell down heavily, so that it could not pull him into the water.
"Wow, you've caught the big guy!" The people on the shore could see clearly, there was a big guy in the net, and it was it that it wagged its tail just now, "Slow down, slow down, pull aside," several people wore rubber boots, stepping on the mud to help.
Wen Hui carefully controlled the bamboo raft, slowly pulled aside, and then went down to four people, using both hands and feet, to get this fish ashore, good guy, close to the length of an adult's arm, and the old man who watched the children play over there also came to see the excitement, "There is such a big fathead fish in the pond? I'm afraid it will take several years,"
Wenhua and his brothers carried a scale, a full 23 pounds!
"Quick, send it to your fifth grandfather's house," the two people who were in charge of fishing stuffed the big fish into a sack and handed it over to Wenhua and them.
They made such a decision, and the people next to them had no opinion, this should be the biggest fish that could be caught this time, of course, it should be given to Feng Yiping's family.
The two brothers carried the big fish that was still moving vigorously and trotted towards Feng Yiping's house.
Looking at the two young men who were full of energy, Feng Hongbing's father Feng Weidong said to Wenhua's father Feng Huafu, "Huafu, you must be the number two person in the courtyard in the future,"
Feng Huafu, who is still very thin, but the whole person is much brighter, said with a smile, "How can I compare with those of you who do business outside, make a lot of money, and see the world,"
"After you listen to me, Wenhua Wenhui will be by Yiping's side next year, so will their interest be small?
"Yes, Huafu, if you want me to say, they can follow Yiping, it is better than being admitted to the best university in China, you have to treat it,"
It makes sense to say this, the two sons are following their cousins, why don't they have to worry about the future? Feng Huafu said happily, "That's not to say, I'll go buy a few more wines,"
"Fifth grandmother, aunt, come out quickly, what a big fish," Wen Hua shouted a few steps away from Feng Yiping's house.
Feng Zhenchang is still in the town today, with Cai Lei and Gao Zhiyi, doing some finishing work, but the house is very lively, and many girls revolve around Feng Yuxuan, discussing these issues such as popular clothing styles this year, the most fashionable jewelry, and the most fashionable hairstyles.
As for Mei Qiuping's side, there are also many people around, from the village, from other villages, as before, all of them are people who have benefited from their factory company in this year, some of them are still the same as in previous years, they came to express their hearts with something, and some of them helped her prepare the dishes to be made during the New Year.
"What fish?" Feng Yuxuan stepped on the cotton tow and ran out.
"23 pounds of fathead fish, just caught,"
Mei Qiuping also heard the sound, and her hands were still stained with powder, "There is such a big one? Where do you have to put this?"
"Leave it to us," Wenhua flushed a concrete floor in the backyard with water, "It's right here, milk, don't worry, we'll cook it clean,"
Mei Qiuping didn't think about this, "Such a big fish head, how nice it would be if Yiping was at home,"
"Auntie, if you want to settle down, let his plane fly back, pick you up to the United States to have a look, go today, arrive tomorrow, how convenient," said a helping little daughter-in-law.
"Mom, what he can eat at home, he can eat at home, he can eat now, many of them are not available at home, why do you want to do so much? Besides, that guy who has been good at food since he was a child, how can he treat himself badly now?" Whenever this happens, Feng Yuxuan always can't help but taste it.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
In the evening, Feng Zhenchang set off a firecracker outside the house, closed the door, and watched his daughter take out a bottle of Wuliangye, "What are you doing with this?"
"Then how can this be good?" Feng Yuxuan muttered, but still followed her father's wishes, went to the bottom of the shelf in the storage room, turned out a tightly covered small wine jar, under the lid of the altar, and stuffed in a layer of cotton cloth, as soon as she picked up the cotton cloth, "Well, it's so fragrant," she couldn't help but praise.
"It's not only fragrant, you take a sip to try it, it's also very soft, very mellow, no pesticides at all, when making wine, except for some koji, nothing else is added, how relieved you are to drink,"
"It's good," Feng Yuxuan took a sip, "It's delicious,"
"Mom and Dad, try this," today's fish, the meat quality is very good, she picked a piece of meat with the best quality, according to the practice of Western food, made a fried fish steak, and also adjusted the sauce, and sandwiched a piece for one of the parents, "How is it, is it delicious?"
"It's good," Mei Qiuping praised and sighed again, "If only Yiping was here, he hasn't come back for the New Year for two years,"
"Mom, it's different now, are you still worried that your brother won't be able to eat well? He has so many things, I think, you have to get used to such days in the future, and after a few years, I'm afraid I won't be able to spend the New Year with you at home,"
Feng Zhenchang said, "You, you're still a big girl, is your mother worried about Yiping's eating and drinking? You don't understand, I'm afraid that you won't understand these things until you have your own children."
In such a day, he doesn't want his son.
There was a lack of someone in the family, and Mei Qiuping, who was a little melancholy, suddenly reacted and looked at her daughter, "You said that you can't accompany us for the New Year in a few years, are you talking about a boyfriend?" )
ps:ps: The monthly pass is still double, can't you be strong again today?
