Chapter 45: Notes
The next day, Mingluo was quarreled by a vague whisper.
"Last night, I dreamed of a long-haired boy lying on my paper window, trying to spy on me, I saw that his behavior was strange, I didn't dare to make a sound, but the child became more and more excessive, straight to the whole cheek on the paper window, I wanted to have a seizure, the child's eyes and mouth were full of blood, the paper window penetrated, the mouth screamed, both hands danced to cut through the paper window, the face was about to be revealed, a shock, the dream woke up."
"Climb the ladder in the dream, although you can't see the head up and down, and the body has been in the ladder, the top of the ladder into the clouds, it is extremely difficult to climb, I struggled for several days to reach the top, when I touched the wall, but I saw a giant eagle with a wingspan of several feet on the top of the mountain flying from a distance, the giant eagle wings brought up the hunting wind, and the ladder was blown away, I wanted to catch the cliff but failed several times, I had to fall backwards with the ladder that leaned back, from slow to fast, only to feel the wind whistling in my ears, and the feeling of falling in my body was like falling into nine shadows, and I woke up from a dream."
"The wind sounded in the middle of the night, just like a flute from people. In early spring, he looked forward to it, and Yang Liubi was on schedule. In my dreams, there are always people chanting in my ears, ethereal, but melodious and gentle. ”
"You Nizi, what are you thinking, like a mosquito." Mingluo turned over in a daze, and looked at the girl beside him by the early light of the sky.
"Ahh No... Didn't read anything. Ziyu was startled by Mingluo's sudden voice, turned his head to look at his sleepy-eyed appearance, and said apologetically: "Did you disturb you... I didn't mean to......"
"It's fine." Mingluo yawned, "What time is it?" ”
Ziyu pushed open the paper window and glanced at the sky outside, "Probably... Let's go up and down at the beginning of the hour. ”
"I'm getting up late..."Mingluo patted his forehead and muttered, "Dechun is busy." ”
"I slept so late yesterday, why don't you rest today?" Looking at Mingluo's chapped lips and hoarse voice, Ziyu was a little distressed.
"I ploughed the ground a few days ago, but today I have to fertilize it, and in a few days I need to plant seedlings." Mingluo sighed, "Otherwise, as soon as the season passes, the seedlings will be out of season, and the autumn harvest will be troublesome." ”
"What's the trouble?" Ziyu doesn't understand.
"The spring rain given by God is the well-being of all things, and if the seedlings can be drenched, the autumn harvest can be guaranteed." Mingluo rolled down from the bed, closed his eyes, and shook his head while putting on his coat: "If you can't get drenched, the millet will be thin and thin, and the heavy will not be harvested, and you won't even be able to eat at that time." ”
"When I was young, I didn't suffer less, at that time, the whole year was helped by the people in the village one by one." Mingluo tied the cloth belt and stretched the brown caftan of the dark color.
"Let's go, I'll come back in the evening and bring you something to eat."
"Hey!" Seeing that Mingluo was leaving, Ziyu quickly stood up.
"How?" Mingluo, who had already walked to the door, turned his head and looked at her strangely.
"I... Did you work hard yesterday? Ziyu pursed his lips and said a little crampedly: "Today..."
"No, you can't." Mingluo knew what she was going to say, pushed open the door and said, "Fertilization is dirty work, don't do it for women." ”
"Squeak, bang"
"Hey... Feed! Ziyu opened her mouth, but before she could speak, her voice was drowned out by the sound of the door closing.
"Again... A leisurely day out. Ziyu sighed and fell on a small bamboo bed built for her by Mingluo next to her, it was for this last night that he was so busy until so late.
"But his craft is really superb." Ziyu turned his cheek sideways, looked at the rows of smooth as mirror incisions on the side of the bamboo bed, and muttered admiration.
The craftsman, she has been no stranger since she was a child, because her father made a living from it, the bamboo is thin and thick, the knife edge is good or bad, and even the selection of bamboo she can see through at a glance, but the bamboo bed that Mingluo made for her is not only impeccable, but there are many things she can't understand.
For example, carpentry.
It should be noted that the craftsman can only weave some small devices - fish baskets, bamboo hats, cage drawers, dustpans, and bamboo baskets. In addition, although there are a lot, but it is not a necessary utensils for every family, and even some craftsmen spend their lives to study only a few crafts to worry about food and clothing, let alone use such a bulky whole bamboo to make tables, chairs and benches.
The chopping is very good, and it is impossible for a craftsman to have such a good craft. The only thing left that I couldn't understand was carpentry. Therefore, he must have combined the skills of a carpenter and a carpenter.
"I'm not very old, but I don't have a lot of craftsmanship." Ziyu blinked, rubbing his slender hand against the smooth and neat cut of the bamboo bed, and suddenly laughed.
"When he comes back, I have to ask him how much he has suffered to make him what he is now."
"Ahh Mingluo, who was dragging a box of fertilizer mixed with dirt and dead leaves, suddenly sneezed heavily.
"Why is Xiaoluo, it's a cold spring?" Qin Yi took a sip of wine, smiled and handed the wine jug in his hand to Mingluo and said: "Here, it was brewed last year, and this year's spring rain has taken three more barrels, just continue, drink it open, it can dispel the spring cold." ”
"Thank you, uncle." Mingluo took Qin Yi's wine jug, raised his head and took a sip, and when he put down the wine jug, he saw Mingluo's cheeks turn red as if they were burning.
"Ahem..."Ming Luoqiang swallowed the bitter and spicy taste in his mouth, and said in a dumb voice: "This wine... It's spicy..."
"Hahaha." Qin Yi looked at Mingluo's funny appearance and laughed: "My barrel of wine, but I added three pieces of ginger and half a ginseng to brew, it is spicy, but it is better than driving away the cold." Here, take another bite. ”
"Uncle Xie gives wine." Mingluo poured several breaths to relieve the burning sensation that spread from his throat to his stomach, and when he saw Qin Yi pushing the wine jug again, he waved his hand busily, "But... The boy is really not blessed. You might as well keep this wine for yourself......"
"Haha, you kid, you can't swallow this bit of spicy, and you won't be able to do it in the future." Qin Yi scolded with a smile.
Mingluo pursed his lips and said, "Isn't it spicy that you can also plant here in spring and harvest in autumn." ”
"Heh, stinky boy, do you owe it to clean up?" Qin Yi rolled up his sleeves and made a pre-attack.
"The gentleman doesn't do anything, it's quite a big man, what kind of ability is it to bully me, and he has the ability to do all my work!" Mingluo jumped two steps away and pouted.
"The pace is quite dexterous, but the position is still a little bit bad, what's the matter, I've been slacking off lately?" Qin Yi rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile.
"Hmm... Lately, I haven't had much time to practice. The look on Mingluo's face fell.
"It's because of that Niko." Qin Yi grabbed the fat behind him, lowered his head and carefully splashed it towards the unfinished progress before.
"Hmm." Mingluo also followed his example.
"That Nizi's character is not bad, treat her well, and Uncle will not interfere." Qin Yi's laughter became very warm, "You, at this age, it's time to add a few men to the village."
"You have no father or mother since you were a child, and you were raised by one person in the village with a mouthful of food, and now that you are at the age of marrying a wife and having children, we are all waiting and looking forward to it."
