Chapter 286: Overnight Stay in Chenxi Dazhai (2)
Tian Limai said with a smile: "Secretary Tan, I used to be a tour guide, and the tour guide knows some knowledge in all aspects, but he is not professional. β
After washing his face and drinking tea, the village director Qin Dengliu invited everyone to dinner.
There are four tables in the hall of Qin and Deng's six families, and the dishes on the table are very rich, in addition to hand-ground tofu, there are also fresh fish in the river, and there is a plate of "divine tofu", these dishes are only available when the villagers under the Houya Mountain entertain distinguished guests.
The wine prepared is Shi Nanchun Liquor's "Tangya Toast Wine", which is a mid-range and high-end wine. As a family of village directors, it is not easy to use such wine to entertain guests, because a bottle of "Tangya Toast Wine" costs about 300 yuan.
This time, there were only eight people at the first table, and the guests were Tan Fengguo, Mr. Wu, Tan Taiqing, and Jiang Wenwen, and the hosts were the father of the village director Qin Dengliu, the village director Qin Dengliu, and two other old people; the second table of guests were Mr. Wang, Wu Xiaojun, Wang Yin'e, and Cheng Zhong, and the guests were accompanied by two old men and two middle-aged people; the guests at the third table were Mr. Liang, Tian Limai, and Zhang Yuwen, and two drivers, who were accompanied by two old men and a middle-aged man, and the fourth table was accompanied by other helpers, and there were ten people sitting together.
As soon as he sat down, Mr. Wu looked at the scene and the dishes on the table, and said to Tan Fengguo: "Secretary Tan, it was so sumptuous in Zhuangzilou Village at noon, but I didn't expect it to be more sumptuous when I arrived in Chenxi Dazhai, you are letting us experience a special meal!"
"Mr. Wu, when our township office notified the village, it meant that it was forbidden to eat and drink, extravagance and waste, only engage in special dishes, cook artichoke rice, eat wild vegetables, and pay for it ourselves. Actually, I also read it just now, the dishes on this table are all owned by their farms, wild cured pork, bacon, tofu, etc., of course, the wild vegetables and garden vegetables on the table are not to mention. Mr. Wu, you see that there are as many as five or six kinds of wild vegetables, bamboo leaf vegetables, wild celery, swallow camellia, hairy chicken leg leaves, hosta flowers, wild Han vegetables, where are these worth, they are everywhere in the mountains. Tan Fengguo said.
"Secretary Tan, now these things are really green, healthy, organic food, eating is good for people's health, we came to Huolongping this time just to eat the problem of worthwhile!" Mr. Wu said.
"Mr. Wu, last time I had a classmate accompany his brother to Huolongping, I invited them to eat farmhouse meals, my classmate and his brother said to me: In the past, he studied hard and tried to be admitted to the university to go outside the mountain, at that time he just wanted not to eat these wild vegetables, to go outside to eat good, he said that he didn't expect it, and now he takes the money to eat these wild vegetables at a high price in the restaurant!" Tan Fengguo said with a smile.
Mr. Wu thought for a while and said: "That's true, I sometimes tell the master of the kitchen in our scenic spot that you can take the time to go to the mountain to pick some wild vegetables to eat, but they are indeed very busy and have no time." Secretary Tan, I have a suggestion, like the old yin tea here in Huolongping and other local products can be bought outside the mountain, like these wild vegetables, of course, it may be difficult to buy fresh products!"
Tan Fengguo smiled: "There are indeed a lot of local products in Huolongping, but there is no scale, and it is not a current model, that is, a small fight, and it cannot become an industry." However, that Lao Yin tea is a ready-made scale, but the taste of Lao Yin tea is unique and needs to be improved!"
Mr. Wu and Tan Fengguo were talking, and the village director Qin Dengliu said, "Secretary Tan, let's each drink less wine?"
"Today, we walked a lot of roads on the yellow mud slope that we crossed, and my body felt tired, so drink some wine to relieve fatigue!" Tan Fengguo said.
Mr. Wu also said: "Such a good dish, if you don't drink some wine, it would be a pity, Mr. Jiang asked everyone to drink in moderation!"
After listening to Mr. Wu's words, Jiang Wenwen walked to the second and third tables and whispered: "Mr. Wu said, everyone can drink some wine in moderation, but don't get drunk!"
Tian Limai got up and whispered to Jiang Wenwen: "Wenwen, you have to drink less!"
Jiang Wenwen smiled, she realized Tian Limai's concern for her: "Mai, I know!"
Mr. Wu saw Jiang Wenwen talking quietly with Tian Limai, so he said: "What, Director Tian, when you arrive in your hometown, you have endless words to say to Mr. Jiang, tonight, you have to give Mr. Jiang two more glasses of wine!"
When the meal began, the village director Qin Dengliu said to Tan Fengguo: "Secretary Tan, do you say a few words?"
"Say a few words, or do you say it? You're the head of a village!" Tan Fengguo said.
"No, please say a few words from Secretary Tan!" Village director Qin Dengliu insisted.
Tan Fengguo couldn't refuse, he had to pick up the wine glass and stand up and said: "Today, we Chenxi Dazhai ushered in Mr. Wu, Mr. Wang, Mr. Liang, Mr. Jiang and other distinguished guests, their purpose this time is to inspect the tourism resources of our Huolongping, thank Mr. Wu and their party, we hope that Mr. Wu and his party can come to us to invest and develop in Huolongping through the inspection." At the same time, I would also like to thank Director Deng of the village and the villagers of Chenxi Dazhai for their kind reception of our common distinguished guests, come, let's have a drink together!"
As soon as Tan Fengguo finished speaking, he drained the wine in the glass in one gulp, and there were about one or two in that glass.
Seeing that Tan Fengguo finished drinking while standing, Mr. Wu and others stood up and drank.
As soon as Mr. Wu sat down, Tan Fengguo said, "Mr. Wu, eat some food first!"
"Good!" Mr. Wu specially poded a lot of wild vegetables, and he tasted each of them.
Mr. Wu had just finished tasting those wild vegetables, and the village director Qin Dengliu picked up his wine glass and said to Mr. Wu: "Mr. Wu, I toast you!"
Mr. Wu said: "Director Qin, I should respect you!"
Mr. Wu and Qin Dengliu had a drink.
"Mr. Wu, have you ever eaten this kind of tofu? We call it god tofu here, can you try it?" Tan Fengguo said.
"Mr. Wu, this kind of tofu is delicious, cool, slippery and greasy. Last night, Wang Yin'e and Tian Limai and I tasted it in a small shop in Huolongping. Jiang Wenwen said.
Mr. Wu took a small piece and ate it, and when he ate it, the taste was really good, Mr. Wu said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, such a delicious thing, you go to eat, why don't you call me?"
"Mr. Wu, we are afraid of disturbing your rest! Jiang Wenwen explained.
After Mr. Wu ate a piece of god tofu, he took another piece. After he finished eating the god tofu, he stood up with a wine glass and said: "Secretary Tan, Director Qin, all the fathers and fellow villagers, I salute you with a glass of wine, thank you for your warm reception and hospitality, we came to Huolongping this time to inspect the tourism resources, after today's one-day field trip, we deeply feel that the tourism resources of Huolongping are too good, it is worth developing, I believe, with the gradual improvement of traffic conditions, Huolongping will become a tourist pearl of Wuling Mountain and China!
After Mr. Wu finished speaking, he took a sip of the wine in the glass.
Tan Fengguo, Qin Dengliu and other Wu presidents are indeed similar, these trees are almost the same, because Huolongping and the black hole are both located on the 30th parallel north latitude, where the latitude is the same, and the plants that grow are not much different whether they are herbaceous or woody!" Wang Yin'e said.
Tian Limai walked behind Jiang Wenwen, and there was no one behind Tian Limai. Tian Limai whispered to Jiang Wenwen: "A few years ago, I once crossed the yellow mud slope at night, that is, when my sister fell and was injured, I was indeed a little scared to walk alone in such a big forest at night, and an inexplicable sense of fear grabbed people's hearts. The five-star red flag flutters in the wind' song, when there was a trembling sound in the black darkness, I threw the pebbles over, and when I walked out of the forest of Huangnipo, I felt very tired, so I went to the roadside family to beg for saliva to drink, who knew that the family was my classmate Luo Sisi's house. β
"Then you must have been so happy at that time?" Jiang Wenwen said after standing still and turning her head.
"I'm happy? After my sister fell and injured herself, my father, uncle, and second uncle were still unconscious when they were sent to Huolongping.
"How old were you that year?" Jiang Wenwen asked.
"It's the year I graduated from junior high school, and it's also the year I went to the Black Hole Scenic Area to apply for a job!" Tian Limai said.
"Let's not talk about that, can you tell me about some legends in this forest?" Jiang Wenwen said.
"As soon as I say something, they will listen to it, and it will disturb our conversation!" Tian Limai said.
"It's okay, just tell a few stories from this forest?!" Jiang Wenwen said.
"Then when I speak, you must look at your feet, because this is a downhill walk, and it is easy to fall!" Tian Limai said.
"I know, don't treat me like a child, okay?" Jiang Wenwen turned around and looked up at Tian Limai and said.
"Okay, okay, then I'll start talking, in the forest of this yellow mud slope, I don't know how many legends, the dead dead trees and dead trees, the twisting vines, including the flowers and plants underground, all have their legends, some legends may have been forgotten over time, and some legends may have been buried deep underground......" Tian Limai's narration did attract everyone's attention, Mr. Wu and Tan Fengguo stood still, Tan Fengguo said: "Xiao Tian, you come to the front to speak, everyone can hear the previous talk!"
Tian Limai was a little hesitant, and Mr. Wu smiled and said, "You and Mr. Jiang both come forward!"
Tian Limai and Jiang Wenwen had no choice but to step forward, so that the order of walking changed, Cheng Zhong still walked first, Wang Yin'e second, Jiang Wenwen third, Tian Limai fourth, followed by Wu Zong and Tan Fengguo.
As soon as Tian Limai and Jiang Wenwen stepped forward, Mr. Wu asked, "Director Tian, where did you hear so many legends?"
"Mr. Wu, when we were children, we often listened to our grandfathers, grandmothers and grandparents tell stories, and most of the stories they told were legends, and when they finished telling each story, we would ask where it happened, maybe they didn't know, so we often installed a familiar place name around!
"Well, Xiao Tian, what you said makes sense, many legends have become our here, not only you, but also from generation to generation, so some legends are identified as ours, but at least our people here think so, Xiao Tian, then you just told us such a legend!" Tan Fengguo said.
Tian Limai said: "Secretary Tan, Mayor Tan and Stationmaster Cheng may have more than I remember, do you want to ask the two of them to talk about one or two!" Tian Limai didn't want to refuse, he really wanted Tan Taiqing and Cheng Zhong to come out and tell one or two local legends, maybe they were talking about what Tian Limai didn't know!
"Director Tian, how can we catch up with you? Let's ask Director Tian to speak, come, everyone is welcome!" Tan Taiqing said.
At this time, just passing through a small ditch, there is a king thorn growing on the side of the small ditch, Tian Limai pointed to the king thorn with yellow flowers and said: "Then I will tell you the origin of the king thorn!"
"Yo, Director Tian, you can tell what you see, right?" Wang Yin'e said.
"Did you make it up yourself?" Jiang Wenwen smiled.
"I'm not that fast!" Tian Limai said.
"Let's talk quickly, Director Tian!" Cheng Zhong urged.
Tian Limai said: "This bull king thorn, in our Wuling Mountain wild resources are very rich, very early for our local residents a common medicine, its smell is a little pungent, mild and slightly bitter, with the effect of dispelling wind and dampness, dispersing stasis and relieving pain, detoxification and swelling. Its origin is extraordinary, and it is a gift from God. β
So, Tian Limai began to tell as he walked:
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother lived in the Heavenly Palace, and often lost a lot of joy in life due to the more precepts, but fortunately, the two of them also had a ******** mood, so the Queen Mother gave birth to eighteen arhats (boys) and seven fairies in a row.
After the eighteen Arhats and the seven fairies grew up, they all gave birth to mortal hearts, and the matter of the eighteen Arhats will not be mentioned here, and the stories of the seven fairies will not be told one by one. According to the precepts of heaven, fairies can not go down to earth to marry mortals, and mortal marriage is against the laws of heaven, in the past we heard adults talk about fairies to marry mortals, and heaven will send heavenly soldiers and generals to arrest them, and forcibly break up a happy couple, at that time, I felt that the rules and precepts of heaven should really be abolished, and the Jade Emperor and the Jade Mother are really hateful!
However, we now seem to think that the idea at that time was really naΓ―ve, those heavenly rules and precepts should not only not be abolished, but should also be strictly enforced! Think about it, the gods in the sky are immortal, if they or they all come down to marry mortals, then how many times should they or they marry in their lives, it is said that one day in the sky, one year on earth, the gods come down to earth to marry, according to the life span of a hundred years, the immortals will be married to a mortal in a hundred days, so how can mortals find a daughter-in-law and a husband?
Tian Limai's words caused everyone to laugh.
"Director Tian, don't talk too far, let's talk about the legend of the Ox King Thorn!" Wang Yin'e said with a smile.
