Chapter Seventy-Seven: Take Off Your Hat
Zhang Niu couldn't think of how to answer this question for a while: "It's a joke." Why don't I take you inside and take a look? ”
"Okay. See what's in there. With that, he turned around and ran into the bamboo building.
Just entered the bamboo building. Xiaohua wrinkled her little nose and smelled a faint smell of perfume. Following the scent, I saw a bottle of Chanel perfume on the bamboo platform in the room. Isn't this a perfume for girls...... Does he have a girlfriend? I picked up the perfume bottle and smelled it, it still smelled of roses.
This perfume brand is also Xiaohua in the school sisters to see, I heard that it is very expensive, better than the fragrance smells.
"Stinky cow, you've got a girlfriend." Xiaohua quipped with the perfume bottle.
Zhang Niu heard Xiaohua say this. It's really wronged. Looks like the round girl left it here. I haven't been doing much lately. "Don't talk nonsense. You look at me like this, I'm glad I don't post it upside down to others. "That's where a friend stayed.
"Hehe, the stinky cows in our village have also learned this......" Xiaohua said evilly. Why don't I introduce you to a few sisters? It's beautiful. ”
Are all girls proud to introduce others? Zhang Niu's heart suddenly popped up with this thought, "Forget it, I still look forward to meeting thousands of miles away." But don't call me a stinky cow again. ”
Xiaohua pouted, "Stinky cow, that's what I want to call it" and straightened her chest.
It seems that the florets are now convex and backward. I don't know if I ate too much stewed papaya in Guangdong...... Anyway, it's very good, it's no longer the small airport it used to be.
Secretly glanced at Zhang Niu a few times, and then withdrew his gaze.
"Are you free in the afternoon? Recently, I really want to go to the terraces to pick up "hats", Xiaohua said while lying on the bamboo bed and looking around.
"Take off your hat. That's for children, are you also interested?" Zhang Niu was a little puzzled.
Glared at Zhang Niu directly, "Do you want to go?" I don't have any friends in the village, so I'd be looking for you stinky cow. ”
"Okay, okay." The impatient Zhang Niu could only surrender. "Then wait at the entrance of the village in the afternoon!"
Zhang Niu walked to the door. Xiaohua had already ridden the bicycle, and only saw a thin back and the green silk blown by the breeze.
After Xiaohua left, Zhang Niu went back to the house to clean up the garbage in the house. The clothes in the morning haven't been soaked yet, hey, it's not easy to be at home. Zhang Niu couldn't help but think of how good it was at home.
The cat next to it wants to eat with its mouth open, which has become a sign of cats. Gluttonous guy. Da Hong doesn't take care of it anymore, I guess this guy can't fly before he goes out!!
Seeing that no one paid attention to it, the cat played with the turtle again, one shrunk inside, and the other pecked the shell of the turtle. The sound of winter.
After lunch, Zhang Niu rode home. After that, I was ready to wait for the small flowers at the entrance of the village.
Put down the car and get a laundry basket at home to put a "hat" in time
Xiaohua at the entrance of the village is already waiting there. In the afternoon, change into a white casual outfit. With a straw hat. He also tied two long sleeves on his wrists.
Walk on the path at the entrance of the village and go in the direction of the back mountain. The fields on the back side of the mountain are all stepped up one ladder at a time, and the "hat" grows on the trapezoidal mountain wall or on the edge of the field.
Walking on the hillside, Xiaohua already had a lot of sweat on her forehead. "It's okay. Do you want to take a break. Looking at Xiaohua, who was a little tired, Zhang Niu stopped and asked softly.
"No need, just go slower, it's too fast to keep up with you." Panting and blushing, he said.
It turned out that he was walking too fast. "Alright, let's go slowly," he smiled embarrassedly.
The purple morning glory on the side of the road is blooming all over the mountains, and when the cold winter passes, there are such figures on the roadside, some red and some purple. Dotted with small mountain paths add a lot of color.
"Stinky cow, do you look at the flowers on my head?"
Zhang Niu, who was walking in front, looked back and saw a red morning glory on his long head. Smiled and said, "Beautiful." "Slap a sycophant.
"Humph! Say it if you don't want to. It must have been perfunctory. He pouted angrily.
Listen to Zhang Niu's sweat. Who knew it would be like this, isn't it right to say good things?
After this episode, Zhang Niu and Xiaohua have already walked up the ladder. To go up the terraces, you have to walk with your eyes long. The road is slippery and all stone-paved paths. The old stone road has also been slowly smoothed.
Looking straight at the past, there was a green grass growing on the edge of the terraces. There are a lot of red shadows in the green leaves, and that is the "hat" that Zhang Niu wants to pick.
There are many kinds of "hats" in the vicinity of this Zhangjia Village. One is produced by short grass stems, and the other is by tall shrubs. Everyone likes to call this "milk cap" tastes better than the short one, both of which are full of burrs, and Xiaohua put on his sleeves to prevent the little thorn from stinging.
The "hat" is similar to the appearance of a straw hat belt in a normal village, with a hollow semicircle and fine fluff on it. The red juice can be squeezed out with a squeeze of your hands. Sweet. Now Zhang Niu comes here to pick a lot, if you wait until Saturday and Sunday, the mountain is full of little hairy children and little girls who follow behind.
"I can eat a hat this year." Xiaohua already has several red "hats" in her hands. "I really can't see this hat at school, I can't imagine that I will have a chance to take it off this year," he said, eating a few.
"Huh. Yes, there was less rain this year, and there wasn't much last year, so let's go up and look for the milk cap. ”
Xiaohua also knew that the "hat" below was not delicious, so she followed it. When Zhang Niu walked up to the terraced fields in front, he saw the octagonal thorn more than five meters high in the distance.
"Look, just remember that a bunch of people went there to pick up milk hats, right? Said to the little flower who had just come up.
Xiaohua just came up and took a breath. "Well, yes. Isn't it the tallest and largest octagonal thorn in our village? At that time, you were able to say that you were going to cut it back and make it fire. Staring at Zhang Niu with a smile.
Zhang Niu, who was touching his head, was a little embarrassed. "I miss the old days. When he was young and ignorant, he said that he was going to cut it back and burn the fire. At the instigation of everyone, he ran home to get a firewood knife and gave his father a good beating. ”
Listening to Xiaohua laughing, "At that time, you were the best." Let's go, go up and have a look. I still have the words I carved on the trunk of the tree. ”
In front of Zhang Niu is a clearing, overgrown with weeds. There are many hats, too. There is an octagonal thorn on the edge of the terraces. The village said that the tree had lived for more than 20 years when it had grown to more than five meters, and that Zhang Niu had grown to more than three meters when he was young. The whole body is wrapped in leaves, and when you pick one and put it in the palm of your hand, there are just eight horn thorns. The stabbing on the body is a bit like the painful feeling of an injection.
"It's gone. The tree also shaded too quickly. "The little flower that first arrived there was very eager to see it, but unfortunately it was covered by the horn thorns in front of her.
"Forget it. I don't think you can find that word now. Don't you see this guy growing so luxuriant," Zhang Niubi, who was standing in front of the tree, painted.
I didn't see the words on the number, so the two of them had to pick up some milk caps in the surrounding open space and go back. The "milk cap" is much smaller than the Big Red Riding Hood, only the size of a child's thumb.
Now the milk cap is still blooming with small snow-white flowers, and small bees are parked on it from time to time.
The clearing was the size of a school playground. There are a lot of hats that look like a lot. The little flowers are picking up vigorously. Zhang Niuma was eating next to him, looking at Xiaohua and shaking his head, this guy is too lazy. There is no help.
Zhang Niu picked a small half of his basket. I don't plan to pick it up. The hand also has a small thorn. A few stabs. Leave a little bloodshot.
Standing on the edge of the terraces, looking at the green hillside opposite. Zhang Niu remembered that it was not the tea mountain in the village, and it seemed that the mother of the family was not hanging a small bamboo basket in the morning and said to pick tea. Now the price of camellia is nine yuan a catty. Sixty pieces can be picked in a day, and women from the village and even nearby villages will come here, and the mountains are tea mountains.
There are many townships and rural areas in Chashan, and most of them are contracted by local big bosses. When picking, they find the villagers and then take it back according to how many catties, and transport it out for slow processing. There is also a receiving station in a small place called Xiandu at the far end.
There are also people in Zhangjia Village who grow their own planting, but there are too few. Uncle Zhang in the village is an expert in this fresh tea, and I heard that a certain boss asked him to go out of the mountain to help.
There is more vegetation on Zhangniu's side. The slopes are also relatively high and the air is humid. As the saying goes, "high mountains and clouds make good tea", it is also said that Zhang Niu is this place. Generally, it is a kind of warm green. Beauty. and so on some alpine tea
"What are you thinking?" Xiaohua, who had just come back from a basket full of hats, shouted.
"No, I just looked at the tea mountain on the other side. Remembering that now is the time to pick tea leaves, "I took a handful of hats in the basket of small flowers." Throw it in your mouth.
Xiao Huaduo put down his feet, and he really couldn't do anything about this guy, "Why don't we go over there and take a look." ”
"There's nothing nice about that thing. What are you doing there? Wait a minute, your face is going to look ugly again. "I remembered the little pale face that I had just walked down the stairs.
Zhang Niu finally agreed to go over there with Xiaohua.
The small flower basket was also carried by Zhang Niu, walking on the narrow stone road to the tea mountain. Walking on the road, you can hear the sound of mountains and rivers flowing down from the terraced fields. Small puddles are formed underneath. Clear. If you're lucky, you can even find a cold puddle.
The little flower in front of me was jumping. "Be careful, don't fall down the terraces." Zhang Niu in the back was really a little worried when he saw Xiaohua jumping like this.
The trail is slippery and weedy. Zhang Niu himself should also pay attention when he walks on it.
Zhang Niu, who was following behind, casually folded off the weed stalk and bit it in his mouth. It looks like a bit of a gangster. Xiaohua, who had just turned around in front of her, saw that appearance and said, "Stinky cow, it's so ugly for you to bite that grass stalk." "Covering his mouth and snickering there.
Puzzled, Zhang Niu opened his mouth to spit out the weeds. If you find something to do, you will be said, it's really painful......
In the blink of an eye, Xiaohua was already holding a large handful of red azaleas in her hands, some of which were still buds. Holding the azalea in Zhang Niu, he still bit the one in his mouth, "The azaleas that are mixed in the mountains are not as sweet as before," tilted his head and looked at Zhang Niu.
Avoid looking at it. "It's raining. The taste is light. In the past few days, it has rained continuously, and I haven't noticed that the color of this flower has faded a lot. Don't believe it and look at it."
I looked up and down, "yes." You see, the difference between these two is really big, "a child's appearance."
Holding the azalea in her hand, Xiaohua sang a very old song in the village, "There is a girl in the village, Xiaofang, who is beautiful and beautiful......
A crisp sound echoed up the stairs.
Zhang Niu in the back also listened attentively. This song can be said to have been sung by Xiaohua from childhood to adulthood. At that time, she really wanted to be the big-eyed Xiaofang inside.
"Do you still sing well.?" Xiaohua, who turned around, almost bumped into Zhang Niu.
"Eun...... It's still as good as ever. Zhang Niu, who immediately came back to his senses, blurted out.
Xiaohua also knew that Zhang Niu was fascinated by what he listened to just now, this was a song that he had been singing for several years. I used to be followed by a large group of children. Now the cow is still in the village. You can also accompany yourself during this time.
The two turned the mountain road and climbed the hillside and walked slowly up the terraces. But Xiaohua's face was paler......
Turn around and stretch out your hand. "Come on. Pull you along. ”
Xiaohua put her little hand up, "I'm sorry for you," gasped. A little sweat falls.
Xiaohua's small hands are small and soft, and there is a scar on her wrist, and you can see a faint scar. It was a small time to climb a mountain and fall. Zhang Niu: They still don't want to go.
Many villagers hang bamboo baskets on the tea mountain. Hands flying up and down picking tea leaves.
"Zhang Wa. You're here too," Zhang Niu, who was just looking at the tea leaves, heard a voice.
The figure of the little flower mother appeared in the path of the tea tree. "Huahua, I'm not feeling well." Looking at Xiaohua's pale face, he hurriedly asked.
"Mom. It's okay that I haven't been up the mountain for a long time, and I'm not used to it for a while. Explained.
Passing the basket, "Mom." Taste it, just picked it with Zhang Niu below. ”
Took a few hats. "Be careful with this. Slippery roads. Huahua has to go back early...... Mom estimates that she won't go back until later today. You cook your own food. ”
"Well, I see." He nodded slightly.
"Zhang Wa, help take care of my flowers," walked into the strip-shaped tea road.
"Xiaohua, let's go up and walk again, let's go down later," this tea mountain is much colder than the terraced fields of the back mountain just now......
"Yes"
The villagers were so energetic that they didn't pay much attention to Zhang Niu and the two. Every day, many people come to the tea mountain.
Walk on the tea road. In front of him is a tea tree more than half a person tall. The tip of the tender green leaf at the top. I heard that the picking is just a few thin pieces.
Zhang Niu, who was walking with itchy hands, also picked a few tender leaves and put them in his mouth. A faint bitter taste fills the tip of the tongue and spits out the bitter young leaves, "The taste of this young leaves feels more bitter than that honeysuckle......"
Xiaohua, who watched Zhang Niu eat the young leaves, smiled and said, "You...... It's really childish......"
"Isn't this a taste," he plucked a few more young leaves next to him, "or you can taste it too, I just like the bitter fragrance." ”
"No, it's okay for you to use this trick on others, I don't want to think about it." Zhang Niu ...... a few times
Going down a mountain is less effort than going up. In front of a puddle, Zhang Niu took a handful of cold water to wash his face, "comfortable...... Xiaohua, you can also wash it, it's very comfortable."
Sitting on the stone with a straw hat fanning the little flower, "Okay...... This is not the mountain locust! ”
Listening to Zhang Niu, he wondered in his heart, how could there be such a person who believed this nonsense now. "Don't think about it...... You see, didn't I just wash it? It's okay. ”
Walking to the edge of the puddle, Zhang Niu had already given up his position.
Let the little flower washed with cold water look much better on her face. "Not bad! This water. Bubbled up from under the puddle of cold water. ”
"It's your mouth, you're sweet," he pulled out a tissue from his pocket. Pulling out Zhang, "Do you want it?" ”
"No need for it, it's more comfortable." ”
Wash your face with cold water. A touch of coolness is comfortable.
Wash your face, both of them are also in a lot of energy. Walking down the mountain and carrying a lot of "hats" on the road, I just happened to meet the little hairy child who came back from school in the village in the afternoon, looking at the blue hat. The little flowers will give them a few. After taking it, I will shout thank you, sister.
The hat full of blue is only half blue. Looking at them while eating, Xiaohua smiled on her face. I didn't care about the hat that was parted at all.
After sending Xiaohua home, Zhang Niu went home with a basket of "hats", and just as he was about to enter the house, he saw Wenwen and Xiaomei walking back together. Humming a little song.
Seeing Zhang Niu standing in front of the door, the little sister pulled Wenwen and ran over.
"Brother, did you just pick this up?" After throwing two into her mouth, the little sister said.
"yes. I didn't pick it for you to eat. Wenwen also eat a little, you're welcome. Anyway, this thing can't be left overnight," handed the basket to the little sister, "eat it slowly." ”
The little sister ran home with the basket, and it must have been the two of them eating and cooking. Zhang Niu still knows his little sister very well.
