Chapter 16 Embroidery
Looking at the roasted brown bamboo rats, the oil fell drop by drop, and a small flame sparked in the fire below, and several people couldn't wait to feast on it immediately. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info and Zhang Meng looked at a few people funny.
"We're not like you, we can eat these things a lot, so it's not uncommon. Peach Blossom glanced at Zhang Meng and said.
Zhang Meng's expression froze, put away his smile, and said, "I didn't say anything." ”
Peach Blossom looked at the heroic young man who looked like a little daughter-in-law being wronged, and suddenly felt very funny, and couldn't help laughing, and the wooden stick in his hand almost fell. The swallow next to him also laughed. Siya stared at the bamboo rat, his ears couldn't hear what was said outside, he rarely ate meat, the meat at home was either eaten by a few brothers, or eaten by his mother, if it wasn't for the three and his grandfather secretly gave themselves a little, I am afraid that they will never know what meat tastes like. I don't know if I'll be able to get a little bit later.
Zhang Meng hurriedly reached out to help the wooden stick in Taohua's hand, and his hand accidentally touched Taohua's, and immediately retracted as if it was burned.
And Peach Blossom didn't care, just looked at the bamboo rat in front of him, and then picked up a small branch and poked at the burnt bamboo rat that had been roasted, and happily shouted to Mingsheng and Saburo, who were catching fish in the stream: "Mingsheng Saburo, come and eat it when it's done." ”
Then Zhang Meng took out a dagger and divided the three bamboo rats, and Peach Blossom saw Siya squatting in a daze, then handed her a piece of calf meat and said, "Eat it quickly." ”
Si Ya Mu Ne's hand asked stupidly, "Is it for me?"
Peach Blossom had already taken a bite in her mouth, and said inarticulately: "Hurry up and eat, otherwise the rest will be snatched up by a few of them." As he spoke, he ordered Mingsheng and Saburo, who were gobbling up some food with their hands.
Siya made a strong "um", and then opened her mouth to eat, but her heart was congested with warmth.
Three bamboo rats stretched the bellies of several children round, and then lazily sat next to the thick tree roots, the afternoon sun was unusually warm, and the peach blossoms couldn't help but doze off a little.
"Brother Zhang Meng, will you still give us bamboo rats to eat in the future?" asked Mingsheng.
"Okay, I'll give you roe deer to eat in the future, it's also delicious. Zhang Meng said, his expression was no longer arrogant before, and after getting acquainted with it, Peach Blossom found that this teenager was not difficult to get along with.
"And me. Saburo said hurriedly.
"Good. Zhang Meng agreed.
In the afternoon, Zhang Meng helped the peach blossoms and them to collect firewood, and when they parted, Mingsheng reluctantly invited: "Brother Zhang Meng, come to our house to play when you have time in the future, the spicy shrimp made by my third sister is delicious." ”
"Really?" Zhang Meng looked at Peach Blossom.
Peach Blossom glared at Mingsheng, looked at Zhang Meng and said, "Well, I often come to play when I have time." ”
"Okay!" Zhang Meng agreed.
Peach Blossom rolled her eyes, and she didn't ask him, why did she look very reluctant?
"Did you put those pheasants in the trap?" asked Peach Blossom in a whisper.
Zhang Meng said "Huh?", then scratched his head awkwardly, and said to him left and right: "I'll go first." So saying, he ran in the direction of home.
Peach Blossom was stunned for a while, so she pulled Mingsheng home.
When he returned home, Mingsheng excitedly described Zhang Meng's awesomeness and extraordinaryness to Zhang and Lihua, and also pulled Peach Blossom to testify.
Jin Dazhong and Jingsheng, who had already arrived at home, were also surprised when they heard it.
Jingsheng said: "I know him, but I don't know him well, and he doesn't often go around the village on weekdays. ”
Jin Dazhong pondered: "The Zhang Meng you are talking about should be the son of Zhang Dong, a hunter who lives in the east of the village, right? I heard that he was born with infinite strength, and he was very powerful when he was young. ”
"That shouldn't be wrong, that Zhang Meng can lift a boulder weighing almost 100 catties at once. Peach Blossom nodded.
Then the family sighed again, there are really countless strange people in the world, Zhang Meng is so powerful at a young age, and if he is two years longer, he is afraid that the most powerful bear blind man in the mountains will not be an opponent. Peach Blossom was thinking about Zhang Meng's words about catching roe deer for them to eat, maybe it wasn't bragging, so she couldn't help but look forward to it.
After a few more days, Zhang and Lihua finally finished all the embroidery a few days before Laba, and some embroidered with the cloth they bought for Zhang's clothes. So I was going to take it to the city and sell it the next day, and by the way, I would buy some New Year's goods and come back. Because of the lessons learned from the last rush, Jin Dazhong went out in advance this time to borrow a board car.
Zhang looked at the cart parked in the courtyard and asked Jin Dazhong, "Why is this car so familiar?"
"Originally, I wanted to borrow Lao Li's family, but who knew that I met my father, and I heard that we would go to the city tomorrow, so I asked me to go home and pull the cart back, saying that I didn't need to borrow others from my family, and I had to repair it if it was broken. Jin Dazhong looked at Zhang's face carefully and said.
"Oh. That's what I said, too. Zhang nodded, and then went to the kitchen.
Peach Blossom touched the dried shrimp that had been dried for a few days, and felt that it was already dry, so she put it in a clean crockpot and put it in the cupboard, telling Zhang that when making soup, porridge or stir-frying, you can put some on it, which is more flavorful. Zhang smiled and nodded, while Pear Blossom laughed at Peach Blossom for being a snack. I know what to eat all day long. Peach blossoms don't think so, there are clouds in ancient times, and they eat color. It's human nature to eat, and people don't live just for a mouth. But she also babbled these words in her heart.
The next day, the family all packed up and went to the city, and the Zhang family wanted to watch the door at home, but was hard-pulled by peach blossoms and pear blossoms.
"Is there a mountain of gold and silver at home, what kind of door to see. Peach Blossom said: "Mother don't stay at home all the time, you have time to go out for a walk." ”
"That's it. I didn't visit much last time. Rika also said: "This time it sold for a lot of money, let's have a good look." ”
Zhang looked at Jin Dazhong, nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, good." ”
So Jin Dazhong asked Zhang and Pear Blossom Peach Blossom Mingsheng to sit on the cart, and he pulled them. The Zhang family disagreed, saying that they wanted to go down to the ground and walk, so that he could save some strength, and he would be tired when he came back.
The family happily hit the road, Mingsheng happily ran around the cart, and Zhang and Lihua Peach happily discussed the new things they saw in the city last time. There were also people from the same village on the road, and they all greeted each other well. The wind blew from the mountains and forests in the distance, with a refreshing feeling, and the surrounding fields were green, and when the wind passed, the waves were like the ocean.
Before arriving at the city gate, people were crowded, and they all came from villages in all directions to buy New Year's goods.
The family first went to the embroidery workshop, ready to sell the embroidery, so that they would also have money to buy things.
When they arrived at the embroidery workshop, Jin Dazhong and Jingsheng Mingsheng were still waiting outside the door, and Zhang's mother went inside, found Xiaocui and handed over the embroidery in the bag.
Xiaocui looked carefully, and when she saw an embroidered handkerchief embroidered with sunflowers, she couldn't help but be surprised: "Why is there such a pattern?"
"What's wrong?" Zhang asked nervously, this is the peach blossom embroidery, saying that it is too monotonous to always embroider some plum blossom lotus leaves, so she changed the appearance and let the embroidery have other patterns, she didn't agree very much at the time, but she didn't want to go against her daughter's wishes, thinking that if she couldn't sell it, she would keep it for herself, and she looked at those patterns It was also good.
"It's nothing, it's just that I haven't seen it before, it looks good, did you think of it yourself?" asked Xiao Cui as if she didn't care.
"Not really. Peach Blossom hurriedly answered, quietly pulled Zhang's sleeve, and said to Xiaocui: "It was embroidered by a grandmother in our neighboring village, I looked good-looking, so I asked my mother to embroider one for me, but I didn't expect to be taken by my mother by mistake." Sister Xiaocui, we don't sell this, it's for my own use. ”
"Oh, that's right. Xiao Cui said this, but his hand turned over and over looking at the embroidered handkerchief, on the white four-corner cotton cloth, the corners were finely embroidered with a circle of leaves, and the opposite corner was embroidered with two bright yellow sunflowers, or waving in the wind, or bowing his head and contemplating, looking very vivid and chic. On weekdays, she is accustomed to seeing Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum, and suddenly seeing the plants everywhere in the countryside, she also feels novel, intuitive, she thinks that this will definitely be easier to sell.
"Sister Peach Blossom, why don't you sell this to your sister, and let your mother embroider some more for you." Xiao Cui squatted down and said to Peach Blossom with a smile.
Peach Blossom seemed to be a little reluctant, pouted and looked at Zhang's aggrievedly, and quietly pressed Zhang's palm.
