Chapter 40: The Autumn Tour of Rural Love
The time spent waiting for the bank to lend money is always too slow. Tian Fei first went to the pig farm to see the growth of fattening pigs, and Sun Yonglin could basically take care of them; then he went to the cornfield, and the three people recruited at this time were responsible for fertilizing and watering, and Tian Fei did not have any time; he came to the cave where the charcoal was burned, and the charcoal from the first kiln had not yet come out of the kiln, and Tian Fei could not see anything; Tian Fei had to go home to help his father taste the two new jars of wine......
"You said you, what you did here and there, are you in a panic lately? Tian Fei's mother said.
"Isn't it all good people, and I find that I have nothing to do. ”
"Xiaofei, have you been in the village for too long, and you are a little tired of following these middle-aged and elderly people every day? Tian Fei's mother continued.
Tian Fei also felt that since he came back from school, he has been busy with a lot of things such as pig farms, and basically has not spoken to his peers, and the information in the small rural areas is closed and out of touch with the times.
……
"Autumn is coming, the fruits in the mountains are ripe, are the beauties willing to go on an autumn trip?"
Li Yu's house in Nanyu Village, Li Yu's family was watching TV, and suddenly Li Yu's mobile phone text message prompted the sound, which was a text message from Tian Fei.
"Whose information, is it Tian Fei again? Li Yu's mother, Zhou Fengqin, teased her daughter with an expression of "I know".
"I'm in, you guys take your time watching TV. After Li Yu finished speaking, he took his mobile phone and entered the room.
……
"Tian Da is busy, how can you have time to go to the mountains to pick fruits. Don't take care of your own business? "When her parents are not around, Li Yu is even more open.
"You have to keep your head down at work, but you also have to look up at the road. If I continue like this, I'm afraid I'll age faster. ”
"Yes, you're only twenty-three, don't make yourself dead, be energetic!" Li Yu agreed.
"So, I invite you to come to Daling Mountain and enjoy the magnificent rivers and mountains of the motherland. ”
"I want to go too, I've been bored at home for more than a month during the summer vacation. But it's not good for the two of us to go. ”
"I want to think about it", "In this way, you take Li Lu with you, don't you want to visit your home, after coming to the home visit, we will take a few students to the autumn outing, and we will go to the mountains for a picnic at noon." Tian Fei immediately thought of a good idea.
"Well, then I'll go talk to Xiaolu", Li Yu was also very moved.
……
Li Yu picked up the phone and dialed Li Lu.
"Sister, why are you harassing me so late!"
"Xiaolu, tomorrow you have a holiday, do you want to play?" Li Yu said.
"No, I just want to sleep in!"
"You are young, how can you just think about sleeping, tomorrow the sun is not big, autumn is crisp, you should go out for a walk and get close to nature. Li Yu said "righteous words".
"Sister, didn't you also have to sleep lazy before, what's the matter, is there an adulterous affair, ask me to make a light bulb. Li Lu immediately understood.
"That's it, I'll call you tomorrow morning. First follow me to the home visit, and then go to Daling Mountain for an autumn picnic. "Li Yu has exercised her sister's authority.
……
After breakfast the next day, the two sisters Li Yu and Li Lu set off. Originally, Tian Fei wanted to pick him up on a motorcycle, but Li Yu was embarrassed and refused.
Both sisters wore sweatshirts and sunhats. Tian Fei was waiting for the two sisters at the entrance of the village. Li Yu was not familiar with the families of the three students in Shuanghe Village, and after telling Tian Fei, Tian Fei led her two to visit. The three students, one boy and two girls, were all in the fourth grade and in the fifth grade.
At this time, the home visit was nothing more than asking about summer homework, emphasizing not to swim in the river, to prevent fire and electricity, etc., and it did not take an hour to visit the homes of the three students.
Li Yu proposed to the parents of the students to take a few of them to the autumn tour of Daling Mountain, with the teacher, Tian Fei is from the village, and the parents are also very happy. Knowing that they were going to have lunch in the mountains, the parents also enthusiastically took out egg sausages and steamed buns.
Tian Fei looked at the three elementary school students and thought, why don't you bring a few more. So I brought Tian Peng from the third uncle's family, as well as a few children who took Tian Fei to pick cold powder fruit last time, and there were many people to have fun.
Three adults led seven or eight children all the way to Daling Mountain. Tian Fei carried the tools he had prepared before: an aluminum pot, a stack of disposable plastic bowls, a knife and a firewood knife, and some spices. The appearance of about five or six catties is negligible for Tian Fei, who often works during this time.
The other children were not idle, a few of them were carrying small baskets, some of which contained some rice, eggs, bacon, and plastic buckets.
Compared to the heat of midsummer, Daling Mountain in autumn is more enjoyable. More coolness, more happiness, more harvest.
Walking on the mountain trail, Tian Fei was responsible for opening the way, splitting the densely grown shrubs with a firewood knife. When the child reached the mountain, he spread his feet and ran up the mountain like a wind. The two Li Yu sisters told this, and they had to watch that, and they didn't have time to enjoy the scenery in the mountains for a while. In this way, I came to the front of the old temple on the mountainside of Daling Mountain, which is also the destination of this autumn trip.
Last time, Tian Fei simply made a lunch here, and now he is a little familiar.
Calling everyone together, Tian Fei began to assign tasks.
The two female students and Li Lu went to the small forest on the side of the old temple to pick up some mushrooms, and the children in the village knew what they could eat and what they couldn't; Tian Peng and the other two boys went to pick up some dry branches to use as firewood; Tian Fei took the other two boys and Li Yu to build the stove, and they also had to go to a nearby stream to get water, and by the way to see if there were any fish.
Everyone acts on their own.
Tian Fei built the stove first, this is very easy, just move a few large stones and put the pot on it, almost Tian Fei can complete it alone.
After that, Tian Fei and the four of them carried plastic buckets and came to the creek not far away. The water is so clean and clear that you can even see the pebbles in the water. Li Yu immediately became active, walked quickly to the edge of the stream, then took off his shoes, and stretched his feet into the stream. When the two boys saw the teacher like this, they also ran quickly into the stream.
"Tian Fei, the water here is so cold! Is it spring water?" Li Yu asked Tian Fei with a handful of water in his hand and splashed it on his face.
"It should be mountain spring water, it's all left from the top of the mountain. This water can be drunk. Tian Fei also took off his shoes and stood in the stream.
"Teacher, there's a crab here. A male student moved a rock and grabbed a crab and called.
"There's one here, too, it's so big!" Not to be outdone, the other grabbed a crab the size of a child's palm.
"Look there, there are still small fish, Tian Fei, let's catch them. Li Yu pointed to the small fish that was good at swimming and said.
The fish are difficult to catch, so we block the two ends of the creek and release the water so that it is easy to catch.
Several people worked together to build a section of water with fish in stone, and then slowly released the water. The fish had no way to escape, and they were easily caught. More than a dozen finger-thick fish, plus the crabs caught, Tian Fei also pinched some wild amaranth and camellia on the way. The four of them returned with a full load.
Back in front of the old temple, the other two groups also returned. Li Lu and his team picked a basket of mushrooms and some houttuynia cordata. The children who went to collect firewood not only successfully completed the task, but also picked some mountain grapes and thatch berries.
Tian Fei first raised the fire, then washed the rice and cooked the rice, and cut a few slices of bacon into the rice, which could be more sweet.
When cooking, everyone washes and organizes the ingredients together.
When the rice was cooked in half an hour, Tian Fei put the pre-prepared taro leaves in the basket, then filled the rice in the basket, covered it, and began to cook.
Tian Fei's cooking skills are still good. Fried trash fish, fried mushrooms with eggs, houttuynia cordata, cold salad with wild amaranth, stir-fried shepherd's cabbage, grilled crab, trash fish and mushroom soup.
A few original wild vegetables, accompanied by bacon and rice, let everyone eat praise, not to mention the wild grapes and berries after the meal.
……
"Tian Fei, today's picnic is very interesting, you can organize it again in the future. After going down the mountain and going home, Li Yu said.
