Chapter 43: The Mystery of Cutting Plums

Zhang Xianjin was happy to hear that Old Zhou was going to live here, he admired this old man and was willing to take care of him. So he laughed and said: "That's really good, it's still early, let's go up the mountain to get some game, let my mother stew a pot for our grandfather, and then have a little wine, isn't life happy?" ”

Zhang Xianjian's words hit it off with Zhou Lao, and the two went out with enough water and fruits, said hello to Zhang's mother, and went straight to the mountain.

When he arrived at the mountain and saw that there was no one around, Zhang Xianjin released all the pets. Arrange for them to go hunting for game.

Zhou Lao didn't care about how Zhang Xianjin summoned this dry animal, but was attracted by the three snow wolves. Surprised and asked, "Advanced, are you keeping wolves as pets?" And what's going on with that monkey? ”

Zhang Xianjin laughed to hide the embarrassment that he didn't want to explain this matter, and used the old method of "mountain people have their own tricks" to fool around.

Zhou Lao admired Zhang Xianjin a little, there are too many amazing things about this little boy in the field.

Seeing that Zhang Xianjin didn't want to say anything, Zhou Lao didn't ask anymore, and changed the topic and said: "Advanced, although I paid for your agricultural products, I always feel that I owe you a favor." In this way, I will help you legalize these pets you have and get you a certificate, what do you think? ”

Zhang Xianjin nodded excitedly.

Zhou Lao said again: "There is one thing you must remember, you must not let these pets of your own hurt people. ”

Zhang Xianjin nodded vigorously and said: "You can rest assured, I will definitely restrain them, and they will not deliberately hurt people, my own pets are still a little confident." ”

Zhou Lao nodded, took out a pistol from his waist and held it in his hand, and said, "Let's go, shoot whatever you see." After speaking, he walked towards the top of the mountain.

A few black-clothed people quickly followed, Zhang Xianjin was drunk again, and secretly shouted in his heart: I said that I went up the mountain to catch some game because I wanted Dabai to catch some rabbits, pheasants or something, you always took out the gun directly, how scary is this? In the end, Zhang Xianjin followed behind a few men in black and walked towards the top of the mountain.

It didn't take long for Da Bai to run in front of Zhang Xianjin with a pheasant in his mouth. Zhang Xianjin laughed when he saw it, holding the pheasant in one hand and the big white in the other. Da Bai also likes to mess with Zhang Xianjian, with his two front paws on Zhang Xianjian's shoulders and licking Zhang Xianjian's face.

Zhou Lao was also happy to see this situation, ran to Zhang Xianjian, took a look at the pheasant, and said: "Shout, this pheasant is more than three catties heavy, I think we can solve it nearby, right?" How about calling it a flower chicken? I haven't eaten it in a long time. ”

Zhang Xianjin naturally had no opinion, and took out all kinds of ingredients in the space and showed them to Zhou Lao in front of him.

Zhou Lao looked at it and smiled: "You kid is like magic." ”

Zhang Xianjin smiled and said nothing, would he tell Zhou Lao that he had already prepared in the space?

Zhou Lao continued: "It's good to call the flower chicken, but there are no lotus leaves. ”

This time it was Zhang Xianjian's turn to smile, isn't it a lotus leaf? We have. He immediately said: "We have a fish pond at home, and we just put fish fry in it a few days ago, and we have planted lotus flowers in the last few days. Lotus leaves are how much there are. ”

Zhou Lao said: "Then let's go to the fish pond to roast the flower chicken first." After saying that, he put the pheasant into the hands of some men in black and ordered them to kill the chicken. Pin the pistol to his waist and let Zhang Xian lead the way to change the fish pond.

Zhang Xianjin squatted in front of Da Bai and asked Da Bai to catch wild meat again and go directly to the fish pond to find him, and then led the way towards the fish pond.

When they arrived at the fish pond, several black-clothed men took advantage of the flowing water of the river to shave the chicken's belly and intestines, forcibly peeled off all the chicken feathers, and made a fire. After doing this, ask Zhou Lao what he means.

Zhang Xianjin took the processed pheasant, and asked a few people in black to take care of Zhou Lao, and just do the roasting and calling flower chicken by himself.

After a few people in black left, Zhang Xianjin evenly spread the ingredients on the pheasant's * and wrapped them in lotus leaves. Then use the fountain of life and mud in the diamond-shaped space, wrap the lotus leaves with three layers of mud and three layers outside, bury them in the ground, and make a fire on them, which can be regarded as a great achievement.

In the space where Zhang Xian was washing his hands, Da Bai and Xiao Bai each sent a hare. Zhou Lao smiled when he saw it, and took the initiative to hug Dabai and Xiaobai.

Da Bai and Xiao Bai didn't recognize their lives either, and let Zhou Lao hug them. Later, under the instructions of Zhang Xianjian, he went to the mountains to catch game.

Zhou Lao sighed when he saw Da Bai and Xiao Bai leaving: "If I had these two wolves so obedient, I would be satisfied." However, my dogs are all first-class, not inferior to wolves. After Zhou Lao finished speaking, he turned his head and said to a few people in black: "You guys go roast rabbits, otherwise you won't have anything to eat at noon." ”

A few black-clothed people took the order, and Zhou Lao looked at the lotus flower outlet in the fish pond and said: "Out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons." What do you think? ”

Zhang Xianjin laughed and said: "This is Zhou Dunyi's "Ai Lian Said", expressing Zhou Dunyi's unwillingness to join the same stream in the secular officialdom. In fact, not really, in my opinion, as the old saying goes, it is better to be an official than to be a decision for the people, so it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes. If you are in an official position and blindly evade, you don't even have the opportunity to do things for the people, what are you talking about? ”

What Zhang Xianjin said was not completely unreasonable, Zhou Lao felt very fresh when he heard it, and asked, "Then are you willing to be an official?" ”

Zhang Xianjin shook his head and said: "In my opinion, if you really want to be an official, it is better to guard my dozen acres of fertile land." I prefer farming. ”

Zhou Lao looked at Zhang Xianjin with disdain, but Zhang Xianjin laughed and laughed heroically.

Zhou Lao said again: "Actually, I like plum blossoms the most, Bao Jianfeng is sharpened from the sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold." Very well written. What do you think of these two sentences? ”

Zhou Lao wanted to see Zhang Xinjin's opinions, but after Zhang Xianjin listened to these two poems read by Zhou Lao, he stood motionless like a log, and there was no look in his eyes.

Zhou Lao looked at Zhang Xianjian's appearance and asked eagerly: "Advanced, what's wrong with you, why did I read two poems about plum blossoms and you became like this?" ”

Zhang Xianjin shed tears before speaking, and muttered: "The red moss steps are full of green branches, Du Yu's voice, Du Yu's voice is sad!" After a long time, they were separated, the colorful phoenix flew alone, and the colorful phoenix lived alone. When is the lovesickness? Will it be difficult to know later? Will there be a difficult period in the future? Why is this lovesickness?

A love word, a love poem. The rain hit the pear blossom and closed the door deeply, forgetting the youth and mistaking the youth. Who is happy to talk about? Under the flowers*, under the moon*. Sorrowful gathering eyebrows, thousands of marks, 10,000 marks. Xiao looks at the sky and looks at the clouds at dusk, and thinks about you when you walk, and thinks about you when you sit. After Zhang Xianjin finished reading, he laughed out loud, as if he was crazy, and then read again: "Laugh and look at the sky and look at the clouds, walk and think about you, and sit and think about you." ”

After reading this poem, Zhang Xianjin sat on the ground and cried, crying so much that even Zhou Lao wanted to cry. But Zhou Lao didn't understand your sister's crying, is it what the old man should do?

This is exactly what it is, Xiao looks at the sky and looks at the clouds at dusk, thinks about you when you walk, and thinks about you when you sit. When you know, can you make up for the loss? (There should be a song here to match the occasion, and I will introduce you to a saxophone ibelieve)
