Chapter 394: Attention
Half past eleven is the time to eat, but Wen Xu's family can't start the meal on time as usual, because Hang Chen, the girl, doesn't know where to go crazy, and there is no one at all! Wen Xu searched the whole village and found that not only her, but many children's children had not returned, and almost a dozen or so children who followed her out were missing. Pen? Interesting?

"Are you back?"
After looking around and not seeing a group of children, Wen Xu stood at the door of his yard and asked his uncle.
Hang Xiangdong shook his head: "No! I don't know where this girl went crazy, and I don't know how to go home for dinner at this time! I'll have to train her when I come back! ”
"Why don't I look for it again?" Wen Xu said.
Hang Xiangdong said: "Don't look for it, let's eat first and wait for her to leave a little on the pot and heat it, this time, wait next time, it's not good to develop a habit for a long time!" ”
Wen Xu heard what his uncle said, thought about it for a while, and felt that it was right, so he raised his legs and went into the courtyard to prepare to eat in the house.
Who knew that Wen Xu had just taken two steps here, and there was a burst of joy shouting at the gate of the courtyard: "Brother, brother, what do you see I caught?" ”
When Wen Xu and Hang Xiangdong heard this voice, they didn't know who had come back, so they immediately stopped and turned their heads to look at the door.
Hang Chen came to the courtyard with a trot, followed by Gu Fen, Qian Pan and Xu Yinan, as for Niu Niu and Coco, they were nowhere to be found, presumably going back to their own house for dinner.
Now these people are dirty, all of them are mud spots, and there are just pants on them, but everyone has a lot of mud spots on their faces, and most of them are behind their ears and necks, and I don't know how they got it, even if they roll in the mud, they may not roll out such an effect.
When Hang Xiangdong saw his daughter coming back, he immediately widened his eyes and said sternly: "Why are you only coming back now, you see what time it is, it's half past twelve, whose family hasn't eaten yet, you just run by yourself, why are you still running with the children of a village!" ”
Wen Xu looked at it and felt that this was not a good time to discipline her, and there were outsiders beside her, and she also gave her little cousin a little face.
So taking advantage of the time when my uncle was talking, he opened his mouth and took over the conversation: "Next time, come back early, arrive home at eleven o'clock, no later than half past eleven, if there is anything delayed, call home, we have been looking for you for almost an hour."
"I was wrong, I wanted to call, but there was no signal there!"
Hang Chen was now on the rise, and after explaining a sentence for himself, he reached out and raised his arm, gestured to Hang Xiangdong and Wen Xu, and then said: "Look, what I got it, all of them are big frogs, about twenty of them, we caught them ourselves!" The fruits of our labor".
Originally, Wen Xu thought it was something good, but after a glance, he found that it was a frog, which was not small, but this thing was too common in the village, so common that Wen Xu didn't even have the heart to take a closer look.
"What do you catch frogs for? They are very good for the crops, and if you eat pests in the field, hurry up and put them back for me! Hang Xiangdong saw so many frogs, and they were all big frogs, and immediately said.
Hang Xiangdong grew up in the countryside since he was a child, and he knows that such frogs are many in the field, and he may not know where to catch them. And catching frogs isn't really a good thing.
When Hang Chen heard this, he immediately said: "Don't let it go, I said before I caught Coco, there are a lot of frogs here, and I don't catch them alone, they have caught almost all the children, and they also said that they can take them and sell them on the street." I've caught a few of them, and I want to eat the frog legs."
Hearing that his father wanted to put back the frog that he had caught so hard, Hang Chen was immediately unhappy.
Wen Xu said: "Uncle, if she wants to eat frogs, let her eat them, this thing is everywhere in the fields and ponds in the village, but toads are rare!" ”
"Really? You kid didn't lie to me, how can there be a place to dislike frogs now! Hang Xiangdong looked incredulous.
Wen Xu replied, "Really! If you don't believe it, I'll wait for you to finish eating and take you to the field to see, this thing is really a lot, although the village is not allowed to catch it wantonly, but there is no limit to catching it yourself! ”
Hearing this, Hang Xiangdong's face softened slightly, but he still glared at his daughter.
At this time, the figure of the old man Chi appeared at the door, and the old man didn't expect that there were actually people in the yard, so after a few glances, he asked, "What are you doing here, eating after eating?" ”
"I haven't eaten yet!" Hang Xiangdong smiled at Old Man Chi, the two of them knew each other last night, although they were professors who did not belong to the same discipline, but they were both old men who had been sticking to the university all year round, and there were quite a lot of topics, and they were already very familiar with each other in less than ten minutes.
As soon as Old Man Chi heard that he hadn't eaten yet, he immediately said, "It's just right, let's go to our house to eat, an old friend of mine came back today." Wen Xu is quite familiar, Lao Jia, and also a professor in our school! ”
"Old Man Jia is back?" Wen Xu asked in surprise.
Old Man Chi nodded and said: "Well, I'm back, I came back this time with a lot of funds, while preparing to expand our laboratory, and on the other hand, I am also preparing to set up a research station in the forest, it is estimated that he will take the forest as his home in the future." I didn't know he was coming back today, he only called half an hour ago! You say that this old man is not angry! Fortunately, I haven't eaten here at noon today, otherwise I would have had to eat two meals in a row! I looked for someone in front of you, but I didn't eat, so I came to see if you had eaten. It's just right, if you don't have anything to eat, you can come to our house and be a guest."
"The food at home is ready! If you don't want Wen Xu, you can go" Hang Xiangdong heard that Old Man Chi was coming to entertain him, so he found someone to make an excuse and pushed Wen Xu out.
Old Man Chi said: "Let's just do this, I won't invite the children and younger siblings, you and Wen Xu will come to me, and there is no one in our family, plus Lao Jia, and then your nephew and uncle plus a Yu Yao, a few people drink two cups, what do you think?" ”
Hearing Old Man Chi say this, Wen Xu said to his uncle, "Then let's go!" The old man came to invite him, so let's stop pushing."
Hang Xiangdong thought for a while and nodded: "Then I'll go talk to my wife!" ”
"Dad, go ahead, I'll talk to mom about this!" Hang Chen honestly turned his head and said to the three followers behind him: "Go!" Eat and go! ”
It's rare, today Gu Fen is a little embarrassed, and she knows how to be polite.
Gu Fen blushed and waved his hands: "No need, no need, let's go home to eat, and the town will be ...... back and forth."
"Okay, don't be polite, hurry up and go into the house to eat, now go home to eat, you don't eat at home now" Wen Xu said to the girls, and motioned for them to follow their cousin into the house.
Hearing Wen Xu say this, the servants were not polite, and followed Hang Chen into the house with a slight twist, this couple had no intention of going home to eat. First, her family's food is as delicious as Wen Xu's family, and secondly, she is too lazy to run to the county seat.
Wen Xu and Hang Xiangdong followed Old Man Chi out of the courtyard and walked towards the old man's house.
When I arrived at the old man's house, the air conditioner had been turned on today, and the living room was cool and confused, while Mr. Ma was busy stir-frying in the kitchen at this time.
Yu Yaoren has arrived, and he is giving Teacher Ma a hand.
Wen Xu saw that Old Man Jia hadn't arrived yet, so he asked casually: "Old Man Jia hasn't arrived yet?" ”
After asking, I didn't wait for everyone to answer, and automatically entered the kitchen to start the hands-on mode.
Old Man Chi saw that Hang Xiangdong was also politely going to the kitchen, and immediately stretched out his hand to stop him: "Let's not join in the fun, besides, our kitchen is small, and we can't accommodate so many people, so our brothers and sisters are chatting in the living room and waiting for dinner."
How could the old man Chi let Hang Xiangdong, who came for the first time, go into the kitchen to help, catch him and sit on the sofa in the living room and be busy making tea for Hang Xiangdong, and the tea is still good, not the special product of Wenjia Village, Fuzeyan, but the good dragon well before the rain that the old man himself obtained.
Tea is naturally good tea, Hang Xiangdong sat down on the sofa, and after taking a breath, he praised a few words and politely said to the old man, and then opened his mouth and asked, "Brother, how did you come to Wenjia Village?" ”
"This is related to tea, and now that I think about it, it's all fate!" Old Man Chi then told him about the discovery of ancient tea trees in Wenjia Village.
"At that time, there were not many interested people in the school, and there were many interested people who were not enough, or the research direction was not suitable. At that time, my idea was very simple, and I wanted to use this tea tree to make a little fame, so that I could retire decently. But now, it seems that things are not as easy as I thought! ”
When it came to the reason, Mr. Chi was very happy, and he was glad that he had taken over the project at the beginning, but when he thought of his current research topic, he seemed to have fallen into a dead end, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost.
"Brother, are you having a problem?" Hang asked to the east.
Old man Chi nodded: "Well, it is in terms of cultivating new plants, it has suffered a failure, even if the branches and leaves on the old trees are cut off and grafted onto other branches, the tea that grows is far less than the quality of the vegetables produced by the old trees, and the new plants are transplanted, not to mention, it seems to be a little degraded when it grows, in short, it is completely different from what we think, and it breaks our original cognition."
For the science of this thing, Hang Xiangdong is also an expert, knowing that there are some things that you want to understand after the truth may be very simple, but before you figure it out, you can catch your own hair, science is sometimes a moment of inspiration, if you figure it out, you will figure it out, and if you can't figure it out, it will torture you to death.
Although we are not in the same industry, the general things are almost the same, and Hang Xiangdong understands it and knows that the old brother in front of him has encountered academic problems. It's a pity that the problem is known, and there is no solution to it.
I just wanted to comfort Brother Chi, but when I looked up, an old man about sixty years old at the door pushed open the door and walked in.
"Lao Jia, it's fast!"
Hearing Brother Chi call this person Lao Jia, Hang Xiangdong knew that this was the protagonist of today's dinner, so he politely stood up with Professor Chi.
"This is Wen Xu's uncle, and teaching at Capital University can be regarded as our peer," Mr. Chi introduced Hang Xiangdong to Professor Jia.
Professor Jia didn't care too much about Hang Xiangdong, he was used to ignoring people, but when he heard that this was Wen Xu's uncle, he immediately looked at Hang Xiangdong twice: "Long admiration, long admiration!" ”
After speaking, he shook Hang Xiangdong's hand, and then asked Old Man Chi, "What about Wen Xu?" ”
Without waiting for the old man to speak, he himself saw Wen Xu who was busy in the kitchen, his eyes fell on Wen Xu's body, he didn't look at the two people next to the sofa, and walked directly towards the kitchen without even throwing a word.
Old Man Chi looked at it, his face was a little embarrassed, and he turned his head to Hang Xiangdong and explained: "Don't take it to heart, he thinks of wherever he is, it's not that he doesn't respect you, sometimes I always feel hurt when I'm angry with him."
Hang Xiangdong is a little bit of a mustard in his heart, anyone who encounters this kind of thing will be a little unhappy in his heart, he is directly ignored like this, it would be strange if he was in a good mood.
But it's hard to say anything, you can't sit in other people's houses, it's rude to compete with others, so I had to smile: "It's okay, some scholars don't care about mundane things!" ”
Not to mention Old Man Chi and Hang Xiangdong, just said that Old Man Jia arrived in the kitchen, he didn't help, and stood at the door directly to chat with Wen Xu and Yu Xiangdong.
"Wen Xu, my research project has foreign funds that are intentionally injected"
"Oh? Which country? ”
"A university in Japan wants to fund, not only to fund, but also to send some zoologists to participate in the research!" Old Man Chi said.
Hearing this news, Wen Xu didn't feel happy, but thought: Why is something happening here, the little devil knows so quickly! The news of the Japanese is also a little too well-informed, and it is only a little time for everyone to get the news here, and it is estimated that there is no sound in Europe and the United States, and the Japanese noticed it first. No wonder people say that the Japanese have never slackened their attention to China, let alone moved away!
"Do you agree?" Yu Yao asked.
Professor Jia said: "If you don't agree, what can you do, and besides, Japanese scholars will bring better equipment and advanced management methods, where would our school disagree!" ”
Hearing this, Wen Xu felt a little like he had eaten a fly, but after thinking about it, the Japanese could not stop themselves from coming, and it was only time to 'slaughter'.
