Chapter 722: Poetry and Distance
The two big black backs were on the fence, barking at Wen Xu and the four of them, if it wasn't for the fence to stop them, it is estimated that these two things would pounce without hesitation.
Just when the two black backs were calling in their throats, Wang Zhe's voice came from the roof: "Black tiger, black panther, don't call, it's the guests who are coming!" ”
As soon as Wang Zhe's voice sounded, the two black backs suddenly retracted, and the front paws on the fence were also retracted, and he sat on the ground honestly and stared at Wen Xu and the four of them quietly with four eyes, as if to say: Don't beat our family's idea, we two are staring at you.
Seeing Wen Xu and a few people coming, Wang Zhe ran downstairs, came to the gate of the courtyard, opened the door, and signaled the four people who had dismounted to come in.
"I didn't expect you to come on horseback, bring it in, bolt it directly to the tree pole over there, I'll go to the backyard to get some grass, but the grass cut from the front and back hasn't been thrown away and just feed the horses!" Wang Zhe said.
Wen Shigui smiled and waved his hand and said, "No, there is a warm horse, and our horse doesn't need to be bolted!" ”
"Oh!" Wang Zhe listened and looked at a few people with interest.
Wen Xu and the four of them took off the saddle pad on the horse's back or something, Wen Shigui's mount still had a bridle head, and the things hanging on Erbai's body were all taken off by Wen Xu except for his own dingding, and the saddle that was taken off, the cushion was directly put on the fence, and he patted Erbai's buttocks, and Erbai went to eat grass by himself, and Erbai moved, and the remaining three stallments also ran up with Erbai.
Wang Zhe saw it and said with a smile: "Interesting! ”
"I think you're interesting, why are you still a scholar, why did you change into a costume similar to that of an old farmer in northern Shaanxi today?"
Wen Xu didn't want to worry about the horse with Wang Zhe, Erbai was the king of horses in the village, there was no need to think about it, it wasn't how other horses had this ability. The people in the village let it be an ordinary thing, Wang Zhe didn't understand, if he asked Wen Xu deeply, he was afraid that he would have to lie or something, so he simply opened the topic.
Wang Zhe's dress is quite outrageous, with a white towel on his head, which is not tied on his head, and his upper body is a shoulder, which is different from Wen Xu's hometown, the shoulder here is sewn together with the front and back pieces, and he is wearing the front and back pieces connected with three muslin straps, which means that the flesh on the side is all exposed.
Wearing a pair of gray-blue pants, I don't know what the material is, it looks very soft and sagging, if it's a serious pair of pants, not to mention trousers, it's not cropped pants and cropped pants, and even Qi x small shorts Wen Xu has seen it, but now Wang Zhe is wearing one, the pants are open after the knee, a complete trouser leg is stunned and divided into front and back pieces, you say that the front and back pieces are just it, and when it comes to the bottom, it is the elastic mouth that puts the trouser legs away, don't you say it's fucked.
Wang Zhe smiled and said, "It's cool! ”
"This weather hasn't passed yet, and you want to be cool? In the summer, you're not going to peel off the skin, are you? Wen Shida said jokingly.
"It's not good to peel the skin, and I don't have the surname Zhou!" Wang Zhe said with a smile and let a few people into the courtyard.
Entering the courtyard, Wen Xu took a closer look at the courtyard and found that many of the things that originally seemed to be placed randomly here were actually carefully arranged, and many things, such as the old old wheels placed on the ground on the east side of the courtyard, were very tasteful.
Wang Zhe saw Wen Xu staring at the old wheel in his yard, and said with a smile: "I bought this thing from Poxia Village, twenty yuan!" Isn't it interesting? ”
"Not bad indeed!" Wen Xu nodded heartily.
"The things in this yard, except for the pool and a few things, the rest are all bought by myself, and none of them exceed a hundred yuan," Wang Zhe said proudly.
Compared with other people's yards, Wen Xu's own yard is ordinary, although things are ordinary here, but when they are put together, they suddenly seem to have a lot of temperament. Let's take the big wheel, there is no garbage thrown away when it is placed in the warm yard, but when it arrives in the small courtyard of the house, it immediately adds a bit of artistic force.
Judging from the decorations, Wang Zhe still has a lot of pursuit of his own life, and his life is also very careful.
Wen Shigui didn't appreciate this very much, and opened his mouth and said: "It takes up too much space to put a wheel in the yard, and it is better to fill in some grass!" ”
Wang Zhe knows that this position is different from the routine of his own life, and he does not mean to despise it, for him, everyone's life is the best as long as he is satisfied, and the house decoration is the same, and there is no unified standard for the comfort of the home.
"Into the house or in the yard?" Wang Zhe asked everyone with a smile.
"Listening to the play in the courtyard?" Wen Shida asked.
Wang Zhe smiled: "That's naturally not, but wait a while, I thought you still had some work to do on the roof of the car, just give me a few minutes!" ”
"What kind of work, let's start together, hurry up," Wen Shida said and began to roll up his sleeves.
Wang Zhe hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, it's just that the pickled radish is pickled and is about to be spread on the roof to dry."
"Pickled radish at this time?" Wen Shigui was a little surprised.
"I look very good at the radishes sent by my friends, and the radishes at home are pickled after eating," Wang Zhe replied.
Wen Shigui said: "Then let's go, let's go up and have a look."
Seeing that everyone was very curious, Wang Zhe stopped being hypocritical, and took the four of them to the side of the house and went upstairs along the metal steps.
When I arrived at the top of the building, I found that the area upstairs was still quite large, almost more than 400 square meters, slightly smaller than the house, a small piece on the top was scattered with a piece of radish strips, and there were water stains hanging under the radish strips, and there was a black pottery jar next to it.
Wen Shigui walked to the side of the dried radish, squatted down and reached out to pinch one, pulled it with his hand and put it in his mouth to taste it, and then handed it to Wen Shiqing's hand: "Taste it, the pickle is really good!" ”
Wen Shiqing nodded after tasting it, and agreed: "Hmm! ”
Wen Shida took the small half of the radish crisp from Wen Shiqing's hand, took a bite and chewed it a few times, and then said to Wen Xu: "Shixu, it tastes similar to your pickle!" ”
In fact, Wen Xu has long seen that the radish used by Wang Zhe's pickled radish strips is home-made, and at this time, the radish produced in Wen Xu's greenhouse has such a taste, which is different from what is grown in the general greenhouse, and it is not the same as the one that is stored.
"The radish we used should have been from our family," Wen Xu said with a smile.
When Wang Zhe heard this, he immediately said: "My radish is from Mingzhu Xudong Company."
Speaking of this, Wang Zhe suddenly understood, opened his mouth and pointed at Wen Xu in surprise and said, "Their boss is called Yan Dong, your name is Wen Xu, it won't be such a coincidence, right?" ”
Wen Xu smiled and said, "It's such a coincidence! ”
Wen Shigui looked at Wang Zhe and asked with a smile: "You won't live here for so long, I don't know that Xudong's boss is from our Wenjia Village, right?" ”
Wang Zhe replied with a wry smile: "I really don't know, I'm not too interested in these, usually I just listen to the play, and I also worked a little bit in front, and then raised some local chickens or something."
As he spoke, Wang Zhe stretched out his hand and pointed down the slope.
Literary and artistic youth, how can he care about this kind of thing, Wen Xu understands, just like he still doesn't know who opened the movie theater opposite his Jing Yaxuan, but he doesn't want to care.
Wen Xu followed the direction of his finger, it was easy to see a vegetable garden surrounded by thorns, which was divided into several pieces, now the green is full of vegetables, and the length is quite gratifying, there is a wooden poultry house on one side of the vegetable garden, which is naturally incomparable with Wen Xu's family, but it is not small in terms of ordinary family farming, and it is estimated that there can be one or two hundred chickens squatting in it.
"Yes, self-sufficient," Wen Xu praised with a smile.
Wang Zhe bent down and put his hand into the mouth of the jar, grabbed a handful of radish strips with water and sprinkled them on the roof next to him, and said with a smile while sprinkling: "It's okay, I'm tired of life in the city and move here to enjoy leisure."
"Living in a house like yours is the only way to enjoy leisure, and the villagers don't think that life here is anything light," Wen Shida smiled and shook his head.
After speaking, he walked to another jar next to the daughter wall, stretched out his hand and found that it was full of sunken, so he patted it at Wang Zhe.
Wang Zhe nodded, signaling that the jar was also to be dried, and saw Wen Shida reaching out to untie the plastic sheet sealed at the mouth of the jar, so he continued: "That's natural, the life of Da Tight is not only the immediate reluctance, but also poetry and distance." This sounds like the ruthlessness of literature and art, but if you really believe it, there is something wrong with your brain, and the so-called poetry and distance not only need a spiritual foundation, but also an economic foundation. There is poetry when the pockets are full of running into the distance, and where does the poetry come from when the chest is close to the back when you are hungry every day? ”
Speaking of this, Wang Zhe stretched out his hand and nodded to himself: "Let's just say a friend of mine, seven years ago he sold Mingzhu's house and went to Lijiang to open an inn there, and he told me that when we meet again in the future, he will be the owner of the inn." Who knew that I hadn't gone to Lijiang yet, and he didn't come back by himself, and his face was haggard and told me about the gap between ideals and reality, and the sentence that I remember the most is that Lijiang also has rats! ”
"Hahaha!"
Wen Shigui and the others all laughed when they heard this.
This is a joke for Wen Shigui and his wife, but Wen Xu knows that in the metropolis, there are people who are good at reading, and the high-rise buildings are full of winners who have passed the college entrance examination, and even the cage of steel and concrete will not drown their idea of pursuing freedom. Country villas, ancient wells and crows, this is the life of many people's hearts like poetry.
This is actually like Mr. Qian Zhongshu wrote in the siege of the city, people outside want to come in, people inside want to go out, for Wen Shigui these farmers, the big pearl is the place where they can live in their dreams, for people like Wang Zhe, the idyllic life of sleeping until three poles a day, and every meal of local chicken and side dishes is desirable.
"By the way, what about my sister-in-law and children?" Wen Xu asked.
When Wang Zhe heard this question, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Leave!" ”
"Why?"
Originally, Wen Xu was going to do something, but who knew that Wen Shida asked curiously.
"Simple! I wanted to be here, but she didn't want to, saying that there were no good educational conditions here, and there were no good living conditions, and finally we got together and broke up, and the children returned to my ex-wife, and I lived here alone," Wang Zhe said.
Wen Xu can understand that he and Zhuo Yiqing are not like this? For Wang Zhe, this may be the price of pursuing an idyllic life.
At this time, Wen Xu suddenly understood, why Wang Zhe invited a few of his people to come over to play so enthusiastically, obviously, people are social animals, there is no problem in living alone in such a house for a week and a month, and if you don't feel lonely for a few months, that's what is wrong.
Wen Xu just thought about it, and Wen Shiqing also threw this question out there.
"Don't you feel lonely living here alone?"
Wang Zhe said: "At first, it was okay, but it was really lonely to live alone for a long time, so I usually go to the town two to three days a week, either to listen to a play or go to a movie, and to go around the street with me, drink tea and so on to pass the whole day."
No wonder! Wen Xu thought to himself.
Originally, there were not many radish strips made by Wang Zhe, and the five of them were busy working together and finished the work.
After the work, Wang Zhe took the four of them to the house, he actually has a special room to enjoy music in the house, about sixty square meters, there is a special room and professional audio, but today he is not using the luxurious avantgard stereo in his room, but using the old-fashioned gramophone in the corner.
Swing the vinyl record up, wait for the record to turn up, and then gently swing the needle to the song, and immediately a feeling of Shanghai in the thirties will come out.
"Through the forest, across the snowfield"
From the record player, Mr. Tong Xiangling's singing voice came.
Wang Zhe and Wen Shigui immediately felt like they had been shocked when they heard it, which was a fascination.
But Wen Xu was stunned and didn't have a sense of involvement, because the old film thing, listening to the sound from time to time, and the human voice was not really bright, so Wen Xu said that it was better than this sound quality to buy a ten-yuan earbud on the street now.
Although he couldn't listen to it, Wen Xu knew that for these people, this thing had a special meaning, and of course, some people might think that it sounded compelling.
I couldn't listen to it, but Wen Xu didn't make a fuss, just closed his eyes and listened quietly, probably because the chairs in the small concert hall were so comfortable that they wrapped the whole person, and within a few minutes, Wen Xu actually fell asleep quietly.
I slept until almost noon, when Wen Xu was woken up.
