Chapter 1578: The Simplicity of the Mountain People
"There's a kind of you don't come back if you're gone. The old man said angrily.
However, his reluctance can be seen from his eyes.
The old man's thinking is very simple, no matter what, no matter how incompetitive Hu Dazhi is, he is his son after all, and he is also the only seedling of his Hu family. His anger and rebuke are just hatred of iron and steel.
And the woman hurriedly chased after her, "Great ambition, great ambition!"
However, no matter what she called, Hu Dazhi didn't seem to hear it, and there was no response.
"What kind of sin did I create in my last life, why did I give birth to such a thing. The old man said angrily and disappointedly.
The woman kept secretly touching her tears, and that appearance was distressing to see.
"Just let him die outside, I don't have this son. The old man reprimanded.
Seeing them like this, Shen Shenyu also felt pain in his heart, why did the two old men who were so loving have such a son? If their son was a little more filial, their life would not be like this, right? Even if they were a little poor, at least they would not be as pitiful as they are now.
"Uncle and aunt, I'm sorry, I went a little too far just now. Shen Shenyu said apologetically.
Even if her heart is for the old couple, after all, this is also a family matter.
"No, that kid should teach him a lesson. "The old man is very understanding.
was so troubled by Hu Dazhi, and naturally he couldn't eat the meal.
"Girl, you rest at home, and I'll go around the mountains to see if any pheasants and hares have been caught in the traps I put yesterday. The old man turned his head to look at her and said.
"I'll go too, pick some mushrooms. The woman said.
Life, but also go on.
The more uncompetitive the sons, the harder they have to work.
They don't expect Hu Dazhi to take care of them for the rest of their lives in the future, so they can only work hard to earn money and earn some pension money. I also thought that if I earn a little more and exist there, I can also give Hu Dazhi a daughter-in-law in the future. Perhaps, he will be fine with a daughter-in-law?
"I'm fine at home anyway, I'll go with you. Shen Shenyu said.
"No need, just stay at home, the road in the mountains is not easy to walk, there are thorns everywhere, where can you eat that hardship for a girl in the city. The woman said.
"It's okay, it's just about experiencing life. Shen Shenyu said.
The old couple did not refuse again, took the tools, and went up the mountain together.
Great view in the mountains.
Green mountains and green waters, birds and flowers.
The old man went alone to the place where he visited the trap, while Shen Shenyu followed the woman to other places to pick mushrooms.
Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to eat the water.
The old man would go to the mountains every day, hunt pheasants and hares with animal traps, and then sell them in the town. Although it is not much, it is a lot of income for their old couple. If you're lucky, you'll catch three or two a day, and if you're unlucky, you might not catch one.
This season is also the season for mushrooms to be marketed. After a thunderstorm, mushrooms spring up from the soil. This wild mushroom is also very popular, leaving a little to cook, and the rest is also sold on the street, which is more or less an income.
Shen Shenyu had never had such an experience, so he was naturally a little excited and excited.
Seeing the mushrooms emerging from the soil is like a child seeing a beloved toy.
This kind of life, although simple, has a rare tranquility and peace.
In such a mountain, Shen Shenyu's state of mind will also become very peaceful.
It seems that you can leave all your worries behind.
It wasn't until late evening that the three of them descended the mountain.
The old man was also lucky enough to catch a big hare, and Shen Shenyu and the woman also picked a basket full of mushrooms.
If these are sold on the street, it is a lot of income for them.
When she got home, the woman began to cook her life, and Shen Shenyu also helped.
"Give me the knife, slaughter the rabbit, and we'll eat the rabbit tonight." The old man looked at the woman and said.
"Aren't you going to sell it in town to-morrow?" asked the woman.
"When the guests come, we have to greet them well, don't be so abrasive. The old man reprimanded.
The woman was a little reluctant, but she still took the knife and handed it to the old man.
This rabbit, if it is sold on the street, will cost more than 100 yuan.
Of course, Shen Shenyu also saw the woman's distress, but it was not because she was stingy. However, this more than 100 yuan is indeed not a small amount for them. Usually, she is frugal and frugal, where is she so extravagant? However, the woman is still willing to listen to the old man.
"Uncle, no need, you still have to sell this rabbit on the street. Shen Shenyu hurriedly said.
"It's okay, isn't it just a rabbit, I'm sure I'll be able to catch it tomorrow." The old man said cheerfully.
Shen Shenyu didn't know how to persuade him to give up the idea of slaughtering a hare to entertain him, and his heart was full of gratitude for the enthusiasm of the old couple. Perhaps, this is the simplicity of the people in the mountains, right?
"Lao Hu, Lao Hu!"
At this time, a man in his forties came from a distance, shouting as he walked.
The old man was stunned, turned his head to look, and quickly stood up, "Village Chief, why are you here?"
"Hey, what about catching another rabbit? You'll have to keep me two legs in a moment. The middle-aged man said.
"Okay, okay, no problem. The old man replied.
"Are there guests at home?" Seeing Shen Shenyu, Muramasa asked.
"yes. The old man replied casually, and he didn't mean to introduce it, because there was no need for that.
"Lao Hu, I'll discuss something with you. Muramasa didn't continue to dwell on this question, "Don't you have a piece of land at the foot of the mountain? My son is going to build a pig farm over there, and your piece of land is just right." So, if you give me that piece of land, I'll exchange the two pieces of land with you. How?"
The old man was stunned for a moment and said, "Your two pieces are wasteland, and they are yellow muddy land, so you can't grow anything." What's that going on?"
"Isn't that good? Those two plots of land are not very good, you are so tidy, you can still grow things. Lao Hu, I'm working with the town to help you apply for a poor household, and if you get it, there will be some subsidies every year. You don't want to discuss such a thing with you?" said the village chief.
"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that you can't grow anything on those two plots of land. The old man said with some embarrassment.
If you are not afraid of the county officials, you are afraid of the current management.
In this poor and remote place, the power of the village chief is quite large.
Especially for Lao Hu, an honest person.
