Chapter 2 Hometown
Word Count: 4116 Although Renault grew up in a mountain village, he didn't look strong, but he looked a little thin and tall, but looking at the thick calluses of Renault's hands, as well as the skin that was a little bronzed by the sun, plus the injuries that were inevitably suffered by hunting in the mountains and forests for a long time, it can be seen that this kid is not so easy to bully on the surface, and there are several hideous scars on his right arm, which were left by him and Ngawang when they went to hunt mountain tigers, they were still young at the time, but they caused a sensation in the village, at the cost of this medal-like scar and a month of confinement。 Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
And Ngawang and Renault are of similar stature, but they are slightly shorter than Renault, and they have darker skin, but their white teeth are also called sexy by the girls in the village.
The two finally dragged the wild boar brother out of the woods, the two were busy for a while, and then they used branches and vines to simply build a board, and then pad a thick sliding rope grass under the board, and finally the big guy dragged it, and the woods were a mess, and the two finally got the big guy out, just getting the big guy on the board and the cart made the two of them tired, plus the huge trap and the thighs of the wild boar brother... Well, the thighs that used to be, just out of the woods, the two had to lie down and rest. (Note: Sliprope grass is a weed that can be seen almost everywhere in the mainland, the surface is very smooth but very tough, and it is often dried by people and rolled into rope, which is very durable)
"Hey, Renault, this time you can get rid of the scourge in this village, Uncle Johnny has to help me get a long knife!" Ngawang has long coveted Renault's long knife, but Uncle Johnny is too busy, almost all the farming tools and hunting tools in several villages near the village are made by Uncle Johnny, and Reynold's is still a gift for his 16th birthday, and Awang is embarrassed to ask for it, even this big clip is Uncle Johnny helped them out all night.
Renault smiled and didn't speak, seeing that he was about to reach the village, he was already a little eager to let Uncle Johnny see his success.
Thinking about it, he patted Ngawang, "Let's go, if you don't go, it'll be dark!" After that, he got up and pulled up the vine to exert his strength.
Ah Wang looked at the sun in the west a little wordlessly, although it was indeed evening, but this was summer, it was estimated that it would be dark for an hour or two, but he didn't think about it, what Renault said was what it was, he didn't like to use his brain since he was a child, and it was almost all Renault's idea.
The afterglow of the sun spreads brightly in this small mountain village, although they are all simple loess houses and wooden houses, but the village seems to be a little clean and tidy, although the houses are east and west, but do not look messy, but have a different taste, in the evening, people who are busy for a day sit idly on the big stone in front of the door or simply lean against the big tree to talk and laugh, the west slanting sun is not hot, printed on their faces looks simple, reliable.
"Look! it's Brother Nuo and Brother Wang's back!" a few children who were playing cheered when they saw Renault and Ngawang appear at the village gate in the distance.
In order to prevent wild beasts from coming in at night to destroy crops and injure people, the village erected a strong wooden fence around the village, leaving only one out to make a simple gate, which was built by Uncle Johnny when Renault was still very young.
"Did these two kids catch something...... Hey, it's the big boar! They caught it! Great!" A middle-aged man found Renault's prey, and the village immediately erupted in cheers, this big guy had broken in so many times that the wooden fence couldn't stop it, and it came in and destroyed the crops, but it was very cunning and ran away immediately when there were many people, but there were few people but they didn't dare to deal with it, which made people helpless.
The setting sun shone on the two teenagers, as if they were warriors returning triumphantly, and Ngawang immediately laughed triumphantly as he watched the village boil.
Renault's eyes were finished with the crescent moon, and he was also very happy in his heart, and turned his head to look at the barley field that was not very wide, and there were traces of the destruction of the big guy last time, but now there is no need to worry, the food in the village is not abundant, and the place that has been spoiled by wild boars can make the villagers feel distressed.
The villagers almost rushed over to help them lift their prey, the wild boar was indeed very large, and the fallen body was even taller than the adult, the villagers scolded and scolded but their faces were smiling, and the children also punched and kicked the wild boar, and Renault laughed when he saw it.
Men consciously carried the prey, and the aunts and aunts all chattered and asked this and that, and even touched to see if they were injured, and sighed vigorously, and several girls stood outside a little shyly, but their eyes looked at them directly, and Renault was not very comfortable.
Ngawang blew nonsense again, blowing the process into a dazzle, scaring everyone into a daze, Renault shook his head helplessly, and looked up at his home, his home is closest to the mountains and forests, some distance from other people's homes, remember Uncle Johnny said that they are here, no beast should think of going in to harm the villagers, and this is also the case.
Renault's house was not very large, with thick earthen walls and a roof made of some cluttered planks and weeds, and a small room next to it, which was Uncle Johnny's warehouse, with an earthen stove and a large water tank in front of it, where Uncle Johnny worked.
Looking up, the man was really standing in front of the house, coarse cloth shirt, coarse cloth shorts, slippers made of sliding rope and hay, board head, rough distribution of stubble on his face, bright eyes were full of smiles at the moment, and he gave a thumbs up to Renault from afar, Renault also smiled, no one else cared, he wanted to be affirmed by this man the most.
……..
Renault was lying on the recliner outside the door where Uncle Johnny often rested, holding a glass of Uncle Johnny's own ale in his hand, and watching Uncle Johnny carry a big knife to chop up the wild boar brother and distribute it to the villagers.
Renault was sitting in his arms with a fluffy little thing, the thief's big eyes looked curiously at the big guy outside, the slender tail was rolled up in Renault's left hand, and the little guy had three strange patterns on his back, like three emerald green leaves neatly arranged, except for these lines, the small leaves were all snow-white, with some ignorant big eyes, gray little face, it was indeed very cute.
This is the little monkey that Renault and Awang found a few years ago, I feel that it looks different from other monkeys, and since they met, the little guy has been following them to make trouble, and almost let it go bad when hunting a few times, and finally Renault and Ngawang were angry, and definitely caught this naughty ghost, but the little guy was very agile and quite smart, and the two of them also practiced their ability to shuttle through trees for this, and it took two months to catch this guy.
Caught back and researched and found that the little guy was nothing special, it looked quite pitiful, so he put it away, but he didn't expect it to be gone, and he had been relying on Renault to eat and drink, and after a long time, Uncle Johnny also regarded it as a member of the family.
Renault Awang and Uncle Johnny are not very cultured people, Uncle Johnny can only read but doesn't like books at all, so Renault and Awang, who is mixed with Renault as a whole, have no culture, and they named the little guy Xiao Yebai after looking at it.
Xiao Yebai estimated that he was bored, turned his little head to look at Renault, and then looked at the ale in Renault's hand, a slight voice sounded, the little guy swallowed his saliva, Renault smiled dumbly, moved the wine in front of it, the little guy immediately couldn't wait to put his whole head in, grunted and drank, and when he raised his head again, his little face was red, his eyes were blurred, he swayed left and right in Renault's arms, and shook his head from time to time, and then fell into Renault's arms.
Renault shook his head helplessly, for a few years, the amount of Xiaoye liquor has not grown, but he likes to drink it very much, and he gets drunk after a few sips, which often makes him and Uncle Johnny laugh, and once he secretly drank wine, and fell into the tank after a few sips, and when he fished it out, he was out of gas, and he was sad at that time, even Uncle Johnny kept sighing, but this guy opened his eyes weakly after lying there, and the next day he was alive and kicking around and was completely fine, which was amazing.
Ngawang's parents also came, today he gave his parents a long face, the two elders were very happy, and they kept listening to Ngawang blowing nonsense, the two elders and Ngawang had darker skin, but their teeth were very white, and they were really warm together.
The villagers left one after another, Ngawang also went back with his parents carrying a pig's leg, Renault looked at the figure of Ngawang's family, a little sentimental, he had no parents, since he could remember, his family only had Uncle Johnny, and the uncle treated him very well, but he looked at others with parents and fathers, he also felt a little uncomfortable, asked Uncle Johnny, the uncle kept his mouth shut, he wanted to call Uncle Johnny his father, and he was also severely stopped, mentioning his father and mother Uncle Johnny always seemed very respectful.
The uncle told him that his parents were very remarkable, the greatest people in the world, and that they were very good people, and he said that when Renault went out, he would definitely find traces of his parents.
Thinking about Renault and remembering that Uncle Johnny told him a lot of things outside, there are always wonderful things outside, there are many strange things, thinking of this, Renault suddenly thought, maybe, I should go out.
…….
In the dim candlelight, Renault, Uncle Johnny plus a monkey, the family ate dinner warmly, in Renault's eyes, Uncle Johnny is almost omnipotent, cooking skills are also very good, wild boar was made into three dishes and one soup by him, very rich, the taste is also very good, Uncle Johnny asked Renault about hunting wild boars while eating, Renault also answered truthfully, just asked the last wild boar cast the wind blade Renault felt Uncle Johnny was surprised at that time, but then it was clear again, seeing that Renault was a little confused, but Uncle Johnny did not explain.
After thinking about it, Renault decided to pluck up the courage to say it.
"Uncle, I want to go outside. As he spoke, Renault lowered his head and pretended to eat.
"Hmm...... When are you leaving?" replied Uncle Johnny in a flat voice.
Renaud was stunned, the uncle didn't even keep him, doesn't it matter if I leave or not.
As if guessing Renault's thoughts, Johnny looked at Renault with gentle eyes, and said, "Xiaonuo, I know that you will be here one day, the outside is the stage that is really suitable for you, I watched you grow up, and I can rest assured that you will go outside, whatever is suitable to come back here is your home, don't be greedy for the prosperity outside and forget the uncle, haha." ”
After that, Johnny laughed to himself, then took a sip of wine, and when he looked up, he could see a strong reluctance flashing in his eyes, and then returned to normal, man, parting should also be chic.
Renault's nose was sore, tears almost flowed out, and he quickly lowered his head and took a few mouthfuls of food before he suppressed it.
"Uncle, I'll leave in three days. ”
"Okay, Uncle has something for you. ”
…..
In the next two days, Renault felt that Uncle Johnny was mysterious, he didn't know where to run all day, and he didn't do any work, and at night he had been building something there, Renault couldn't persuade him, Johnny just told him to go back and rest by himself, and it was rare to have a good rest when he went out.
In the evening of the third day, Uncle Johnny came back with a tall gray-white horse, and as soon as he came back, he shouted loudly for Renault to come out and see, the horse is tall and wonderful, and it is a rare good horse in this mountain village, and Renault remembers that a village in the distance only produced this **.
Then he threw a burden to Renault, "Here, this is a new dress that your Aunt Karin specially made for you, try to see if it fits, by the way, I also made it for Xiao Yebai." ”
Aunt Karin moved into the village ten years ago, she has been single, the tailor is good, soon everyone recognized her, although Karin is now in her thirties, but she is still beautiful, even younger than many of the little girls in the village, anyway, in Renault's opinion she is the most beautiful woman in the village.
And Uncle Johnny has always been a little ambiguous with her, but he has never been officially together, he didn't think much about it before, but now he thinks that Johnny is worried that it will not take care of him well, so Aunt Karin is very good to him and can explain it, and it is estimated that he will approve it, but he has not thought about it, just as the care of the elders.
Thinking of this, he looked at Uncle Johnny with some complicated feelings, this man always paid to him silently, but he always took it with haha, pretending not to care too much.
"What are you stunned about, go quickly, if it doesn't fit, you can still ask Karin to help you change it tonight, and let Xiao Yebai try it too." Uncle Johnny slapped him on the head hard.
Renault then ran in to change his clothes.
The clothes fit very well, they are a mixture of coarse cloth and muslin, durable and comfortable, plus a leather jacket and soft leather pants, Renault now looks radiant, very discerning and youthful, and Xiao Yebai wears a miniature version of the red vest top, and then brings a bright red hat, which looks even more cute, this guy is excited to run up and down, and he seems to like it very much.
"Haha, yes, yes, the young man is the spirit. Uncle Johnny was happier than he was wearing new clothes, Xiao Yebai stopped listening to it, ran to him and squeaked, Johnny laughed: "The little guy is not bad, very beautiful." ”
The little guy was content and ran to play.
Renault looked at the dark sky a little blankly, is he going to leave tomorrow?
