Chapter 838: Little Wine
When he arrived at the entrance of the village with a group of children, Wen Xu met Old Man Chi and Old Man Jia who were walking over from the small slate bridge. When the two of them saw Wen Xu's pose, they were immediately amused by Wen Xu.
Think about it, whether it's two white or big brown, there are five or six children on the back of the monkey, this guy can't even sit on the neck of the horse, six or seven children are crowded on the back of a horse, and the clamp is like a hamburger, which makes people feel particularly interesting layer by layer.
The two old men stepped forward, and a group of people laughed and laughed while holding the children on horseback with Wen Xu.
"You have enough horses to carry!" Old Man Chi reached out and hugged a little girl off the big brown back.
"Then what's the way, can't there be children running with me" Wen Xu didn't care, what did the children crowd out.
Old Man Jia helped Old Man Chi pick up the children underground, and the two of them picked up one person and the other, and they hugged the children in a few clicks. And Wen Xu's side is no slower than the two old men, the old man has just put down the last child, and Wen Xu has picked up the last monkey on horseback.
"Goodbye Grandpa Jia, goodbye Grandpa Chi, goodbye Uncle Wen Xu!"
As soon as the little ones fell to the ground, they immediately greeted Wen Xu and the others, and then ran along the village path to the west, and after running over the small stone bridge, they did not continue to run along the road, but turned to the path and went to the back of the house.
Wen Xu hurriedly said loudly: "Don't be crazy, it's going to rain soon!"
"Got it!"
I don't know which little baby came, but the one who should run is still running, and the one who should be slipping is still slipping, and he directly took Wen Xu's words as a deaf ear.
Old Man Jia looked at the backs of these children, his eyes were full of envy, and he said softly: "Alas, looking at these children, I really envy their age, like us at that time, we couldn't eat enough, and there was only a little thing to play."
"Don't be too envious, this is the child of Wenjia Village, you go out and have a look, you see the children in the city are tired, even if it is Zhou Wei, either go to a violin class or go to an art class, it's really not good to do anything, the current children are not necessarily happier than when we were children, we still have nostalgia in our childhood, what do children miss now? What do you miss about it? It's not in cram school, or on the way to cram school." Old Man Chi didn't agree so much with Old Man Jia's point of view, and combined with his own little granddaughter, he immediately refuted it.
Wen Xu clapped his hands when he heard this, attracting the attention of the two old men: "I said two, if there is something to do, you two will say something, if you are okay, go home early! I got some snails and water chestnuts here in the afternoon, bring some back to you, and a few ang thorn fish, do you want to do it?"
Saying that Wen Xu was ready to pull Erbai and Da Brown into the yard, he had to unload the things first, not only the snails and water chestnuts, but also the children gave more than a dozen shower heads, and when they touched the snails and water chestnuts, they also caught more than a dozen ang thorn fish, you must know that this ang thorn fish is wild, the yellow of the year is with earth yellow, and the back is also black gold.
Old Man Chi listened and said, "Don't ask us if you want to, go to my house for a drink at night, and bring Shang Zhen and the children with you."
Drinking Wen Xu understands, but the so-called bringing the child and the teacher Shangzhen is the old man's polite words, if such a group of people passes, it is estimated that the old man will not let himself drink, but a family banquet.
"Shang Zhen and the children won't go, my mother-in-law is here, I'll go to the banquet alone," Wen Xu said with a smile.
"Which knife do you have, it's almost the same to go to the banquet with one mouth!" Old Man Jia joked.
"It's not okay to have a single mouth, you don't want water chestnuts, you make a plate of snails, let's be a couple tonight, don't call others" Old Man Chi and Wen Xu had something to be polite, walked to Erbai's back and stretched out his head to look into the basket, and found that the snail was quite big, and then dialed it twice and saw the ang thorn fish covered under the wet water grass.
As soon as he saw this ang thorn fish, the old man Chi immediately said: "Ang thorn fish and another soup, you are good at these two dishes, and then you will have two dishes!"
Wen Xu listened and said, "Okay!"
After saying that, Wen Xu thought about what kind of wine he was drinking, so he immediately stood up and asked, "What kind of wine did I say you drank for no reason?"
"Lao Jia may have to be rated as an academician this time," Old Man Chi leaned over to Wen Xu's side and whispered.
"Really?" Wen Xu said in surprise.
Old Man Jia smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's just a nomination, this time there is a chance that it won't be evaluated!"
Old Man Chi laughed twice, and then said, "Isn't it okay to nominate two more times?"
Wen Xu also saw the matter of evaluating academicians on the news, anyway, there are all kinds of messy things on the Internet, and the remarks are also varied, what researches cigarettes and everything can be rated as academicians, but the internationally renowned master of biology has fallen off the list, and there have been some academic monopolies before, anyway, when I check and evaluate academicians on the Internet, there are a lot of fucking academic fraud and plagiarism news.
Although Wen Xu doesn't have any feelings for academicians, he still believes in Old Man Jia's character, the old man is stubborn and a person who is engaged in research, so I heard that the old man is quite happy for the old man to be a candidate.
Old Man Jia said with a smile: "Actually, in the past two years, I have been stained with the light of Wenjia Village, if it weren't for the Zoology of the Overlord Monkey, who would know who I Jia Changping is!"
"You're so modest, you're a piece of gold that shines anywhere," Wen Xu said with a smile.
Wen Xu understands that academic work is not only achieved by hard work, but also by a little luck, doesn't it mean that success is 99 percent of the sweat, plus 1 percent of the luck, but this 1 percent of the luck is more than the previous 99 percent of the sweat.
Old Man Jia's experience illustrates this problem, the overlord is a ladder, and the old man Jia also has the ability to hold this ladder steadily, so that he can firmly seize the opportunity to become a top scholar who studies the behavior of the overlord.
Old Man Jia said: "But this is for us to celebrate in private, and the official news has not come down yet!"
"Okay, I know, don't worry, I won't say anything here"
After Wen Xu finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that when he met two old man's students in the morning, he kept them secret, so he couldn't help muttering in his heart: Sure enough, there must be a teacher and an apprentice!
"Okay, then you can get busy, Lao Jia and I will also go back and prepare dinner, by the way, come over early, wait for you to take charge" Old Man Chi said.
"Alright, I got it!"
After speaking, Wen Xu took Erbai and Da Brown into the courtyard.
The old lady was not afraid of the heat, so she ran around with the little things.
Seeing Wen Xu come in, the children immediately came over again, not to play with Wen Xu, but to come over to make trouble, Erbai and Da Brown are very patient with the three children, and the three little guys are so old that they can make trouble with the two of them, it's nothing more than pulling a tail and hugging a leg or something, Erbai and Da Brown will be afraid of this?
"Who are you talking to outside the door?"
"Professor Jia and Professor Chi, the two old men asked me to go to their place for dinner in the evening!" Wen Xu said as he was busy unloading things.
My mother hurriedly came over and helped: "Okay, then you can go, I'll make dinner!"
"Hmm!"
After Wen Xu answered, he and the old lady got busy together, there were not many things, and the two of them were a matter of a few minutes, after fiddling with them, Wen Xu took the big brown and Erbai out of the yard and put them back in the forest, at this time the two of them were free to go as they wanted.
Back in the yard, Wen Xu found that her mother-in-law had soaked the snails in the water, and began to drip sesame oil to make the snails spit mud. The three boys are now also a small bench each, sitting honestly with their own lotus shower heads, the three little guys are a little cute when they pick up the lotus shower heads, and the little hands seem to be strong, each of which is both on the hand and on the mouth, even tearing and biting.
Wen Xu didn't come over to help, and the children did the little things themselves, but he walked over to the old lady and helped get the ang thorn fish.
The master looked at the basin here: "Is this enough?"
"What's enough?"
"Didn't you say that you brought a few with you?" said the senior mother.
"Three or four is enough, where do you want so much soup," Wen Xu said in a continuous voice.
"Bring a few more, where are three or four kindly taken!"
Wen Xu said: "Mom, you really don't need so much, you are not particular people, you can get the rest of the food at home, live these and raise them, but don't forget to put something on the basin and press it, or you don't have to wait until tomorrow morning, these fish will be dragged by the fishing cat at home for supper."
Thinking of the fish to be raised, Wen Xu specially instructed his mother-in-law again.
"I don't know this? Okay, I soaked the snail for you over there, now you can go over, it's not good to go too late to be a guest!"
Hearing what his mother-in-law said, Wen Xu didn't say anything more, stood up and wiped the water on his hands, and then walked into the courtyard of Old Man Chi's house with the soaked snails and the good ang thorn fish.
As soon as he entered the door, Wen Xu was almost robbed of fish by a group of bandits in the courtyard, didn't there be some lazy cranes in the yard of Old Man Chi's house, and when he saw Wen Xu coming in with a fish, he immediately surrounded him, fanning his wings and happily thinking that Wen Xu was here to feed himself, and ran over with joy, ready to eat.
"Fuck off!" Wen Xu hid the fish to his side.
Who knew that these guys not only had long legs, but also long necks, and immediately stretched their necks, stood up straight, and prepared to put their legs on their mouths directly, and held their long mouths towards the ang thorn fish in the warm basin.
Wen Xu saw that the fish in the basin was not in danger, and immediately stretched out his legs, and the nearest crane was a small foot.
A clear crane cry made all the cranes jump and dodge one after another.
Wen Xu stretched out his hand and flicked his leg: "If you don't be a little ruthless, you won't be able to remember!"
At this moment, Old Man Chi pushed open the window and asked Wen Xu, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, these gluttonous cats of your family actually want to rob my fish, let me go down and be honest" Wen Xu looked at Old Man Chi and found that he was holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and he knew that he was cutting vegetables at a glance.
"No, if you kick these cranes in your family, you will scare me with a kitchen knife?"
Old Man Chi said with a smile: "I don't care about them, I don't care if you take them to stew, as long as they are not discovered by the police, or my wife sees them, even if you can!"
After speaking, Old Man Chi stretched out his hand and motioned for Wen Xu to come into the house.
After entering the house, Wen Xu took over the work of stir-frying, today's dishes are very homely, a few cold and a few hot, the cold ones are mixed with tomatoes, cucumbers, salted peanuts and salted duck eggs, hot are leek eggs, green pepper tripe, three fresh, Shuijiao meat slices and braised chicken nuggets, and finally a soup ang thorn fish and tofu.
The dishes were ready, and after they were laid out, Wen Xu saw that the old man had taken out a bottle of wine: "Let's drink this today!"
Wen Xu looked at it and saw that it was also a time-honored brand: Tanggou wine, this wine was still in southern Jiangsu, but after southern Jiangsu, I didn't know what happened. Although Wen Xu wants to drink the Yanghe of his own space, the old man is the host, and it is good to be the guest himself.
"Look at what, this is also aging!" Old Man Chi saw through Wen Xu at a glance, and stretched out his finger with a smile: "Have you seen it, this bottle also represents internal aging, which was given to me by one of my students during the New Year, that is, a box of five bottles!"
"Okay, I didn't say anything!" Wen Xu smiled and took the bottle and poured the wine.
