Chapter 103: Youth

When the mother and daughter talked about fried balls, small fried rice (a kind of pasta wrapped in sesame seeds), fried hemp sticks (made of potato flour) and other foods, Huang Li was very excited when she heard it, and she couldn't sleep honestly, so she raised her legs, straightened it against the back wall of the bed, and arched her back upward, wanting to do a handstand, and kicking the wall of the bed board "dong dong" sound.

With such a toss, her trousers slid down, revealing two white and tender calves.

The cuckoo hurriedly stopped: "Don't twist your neck. ”

Huang Que'er said in unison: "Be careful of the cold." ”

Feng leaned over and slapped the little girl, scolding: "It's not honest when you sleep, it's a monster!" Break the bed, see if I don't skin you. ”

Huang Li hurriedly lowered his legs and retracted into the bed.

The cuckoo changed the subject and asked about his grandfather's house, where he lived, what was good to eat, what was fun, and so on.

Feng Shi hugged his knees and said, "What's so funny, it's not the same as ours, it's also Shanduo." It's just that there are more people, and there is a village a few miles away. The mountains are much shorter, the roads are easier to walk, and there are market towns......"

The cuckoo understood, because the road is easy to walk, and the population is denser.

If the population is dense, the mountain is not as rich as the mountain product, and it will naturally be plagued by people.

Huang Li was not honest after lying down for a while, and tilted his head and asked, "Mother, what are you selling in the market town?" ”

Feng said: "Everything is sold. ”

Huang Li didn't give up when he heard this, and asked: "Sell everything, so what to sell?" ”

Feng smiled: "Just you grind your teeth!" Food, clothing, and play are all sold. ”

Huang Li's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he perseveredly asked, "Food, clothing, and play." What are they selling? ”

The cuckoo and the yellow finch laughed.

Feng Shi also said angrily: "There are all kinds of dim sum and fried fruits to eat, and all kinds of flower cloths to wear. Play ...... Heck, there are many, many of them anyway. ”

She doesn't have a lot of vocabulary. couldn't cope with the little girl's desire to learn, so she had to mix.

Huang Li was obviously dissatisfied with her answer, and felt that it was not detailed enough, so he complained, "Don't take me there." Really! I'm five years old, and I went to the mountains to pick up mushrooms that day. ”

The cuckoo revealed: "You call picking up mushrooms? It's me and my sister who will take you up the mountain to play, okay? We find the fungus and call you to pick it up; and also to prevent wolves from biting you, and to watch out for snakes to bite you; You can't walk when you come back, and we'll have to carry you ......."

"Ahhh

Huang Li interrupted with a scream, not allowing her to count her "unbearable" past.

Feng Shi watched the sisters arguing. With a smile on his face all the time.

Unconsciously, late at night, she didn't leave, and slept in a bed with her three daughters.

Feng Changshun left early the next morning, saying that there were many things at the end of the year, and it was not good to delay.

Feng took his daughter to sprinkle and scrub, and the group was busy.

The next day was the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, and the people who had gone into the mountains to hunt returned. There are Lin Dameng, Lin Datou, Huang Laoshi, Lin Fusheng and Lin Qiusheng, and even Jiu'er and Lin Chun all went.

Because Ren Sanhe's family is on the outskirts of the village. The mountain is close, so everyone carried the prey to Ren's house first and divided it equally. Get it back again.

Jiu'er and Lin Chun are nine years old, their skin is tanned, and they are very strong and healthy. Dressed in short shirts and trousers. With a coarse cloth belt tied around his waist, he looked like an eleven or twelve-year-old boy. The two are young. But they all tied their hair on the top of their heads, so that they could walk in the mountains.

Jiu'er is the same as his father. The speech is bold and refreshing, and fierce.

Lin Chun is much calmer and less talkative. But it's not that he is taciturn and wooden, but when he faces people, he always looks at each other quietly with keen observation, and once he speaks, he is very pertinent and appropriate.

The two teenagers have been learning martial arts with Ren Sanhe since they were four years old in the morning and evening. Since the beginning of this year, Ren Sanhe and Lin Dameng have taken them with them when they go hunting in the mountains, in order to experience. In addition, when Lin Chun did not enter the mountain, he followed behind his grandfather Lin Li to learn the basic work of carpenter.

Counting what Du Juan taught, the two babies are the same as the elite training in her previous life.

Among them, Lin Chun was particularly busy, because Du Juan considered his need to learn carpenter, especially taught him mathematics, and then he had to teach geometry and physics.

Fortunately, he is smart, gets up early and is greedy for darkness, and can cope with it.

Here, there is one more thing to explain: it is the legendary martial arts master of Cuckoo's eyes, so he proposed to learn martial arts from Ren Sanhe.

Ren Sanhe shook his head, saying that she was not the material, and she couldn't endure the hardship.

The cuckoo was not convinced, is he the squeamish person?

Therefore, it is necessary to learn.

Ren Sanhe couldn't, so he taught her light skills, and whipped and hidden weapons all the way.

Since then, the cuckoo has fallen into a miserable situation.

But she wanted to stop learning, but Ren Sanhe didn't allow it, pressuring her to continue learning. The cuckoo was under pressure and could only continue. But it was still three days to find an excuse to avoid the morning training.

More on that later.

Let's say that in front of him, the cuckoo heard the noise behind him, and hurriedly rushed to his aunt's house with Huang Li. I saw a lot of game piled up in the middle of the yard, and everyone was distributing it one by one.

When Lin Chun saw her, he smiled and shouted, "Cuckoo!" ”

The cuckoo didn't have time to promise him, so he shouted at Huang honestly: "Dad! ”

Huang Li directly rushed over and hugged Huang Laoshi's thigh, raised his head and smiled: "Dad, it's just right for you to come back." My mother is frying fried fruits. It smells so good! ”

Huang Laoshi hurriedly leaned over and picked up the little girl, and asked with a smirk: "Do you miss your father?" ”

Huang Li nodded again and again and said, "Yes." I can't sleep when I think about it. ”

The two arms wrapped around the neck of the honest father, which was very intimate.

The cuckoo snorted and laughed, looking at this little girl without blinking, thinking that she didn't know who it was, sleeping like a piglet, and she couldn't wake up when she shouted in the morning.

However, Huang Laoshi obviously enjoyed this very much, and was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth.

Huang Li said again: "Dad, when I heard that you were back, the eldest sister hurriedly boiled water." You can get home and take a shower. Wash clean, get some sleep, get up and eat. ”

Huang Laoshi said continuously: "Hey, hey!" Good, good! Daddy will come home right away. ”

Looking at this warm scene, Lin Datou asked Huang Laoshi unwillingly: "Honest brother, why did you give birth to a girl?" ”

With four sons, he would be jealous of Huang Laoshi. If he had put it aside, he wouldn't have believed it.

But it's true.

Who has three girls? Still living so moist?

Whose girl is as intimate as the Huang family's girl?

Every day, listening to the little girl next door calling her father and mother in a delicate voice. And there was sour water in his heart.

is also going home from work, the daughter of the Huang family must do everything properly: hot water, face cloth, food and drink, the honest man just enjoys it; As for his family, if it weren't for Chun's mother's action, a few boys would have made a mess.

Well, Chun'er is stronger.

Lin Datou was full of disberence, but Huang Laoshi thought that he was laughing at himself again. "Snort" and said, "What's the matter?" I can't have a son, I can't have a daughter? So what do you want me to give birth to? ”

Lin Dameng and the others laughed.

The cuckoo hit Lin Datou and said: "Dad, Uncle Datou is angry with you, there is a caring girl to make a little padded jacket." Didn't you hear that? ”

After hearing this, Huang Laoshi opened his eyes and asked, "Really?" ”

I couldn't help but look proud.

Lin Datou glared at the cuckoo angrily, unable to think about her.

Seeing that her father was eating deflated in front of the cuckoo again, Lin Chun hurriedly beckoned her to go over to see the game, and said, "Cuckoo, come, look at this pheasant." This is what I hunted. That rabbit was beaten by Jiu'er......"

The cuckoo went with him, saw that he had strips of cloth wrapped around his palms, and hurriedly asked him if he was injured.

Lin Chun said with a smile, his hand was broken. It's not a big deal, it's tied up like this, so it's convenient to carry the prey. And he talked endlessly about the hunting. Jiu'er added on the side.

The cuckoo didn't blink when he heard this, and said enviously that he would go with them every time.

saw Ren Sanhe glance at her. A look of disapproval.

Lin Chun didn't do anything, and Jiu'er immediately instigated it. Say, "You follow me, don't be afraid of anything." If you can't walk, I can still carry you. I've got a lot of strength. Cuckoo, with you with you, we don't have to nibble on cold steamed buns. ”

The cuckoo hurriedly said, "Doesn't Lin Chun know how to barbecue?" I also helped him prepare the spices. Why do you still nibble on cold steamed buns? ”

Jiu'er grinned and said, "Lin Chun is still worse than you." ”

Lin Chun glanced at him and said, "Next time, you want to eat!" ”

As he spoke, Qiusheng walked over.

He's fourteen years old, and he looks like an adult.

He held a black tree root, about half a foot thick and a foot long, and sent it to the cuckoo, saying, "Cuckoo, this is for you." I see you're always picking up that. Do you like this? ”

The cuckoo laughed and said, "That's not rags, that's ...... Hey, it's all empty? There's also a small pine tree growing in there. Ouch, this is good. I like it! ”

Qiusheng smiled and said, "It's good to like it." I'm afraid I'll pick it up for nothing. ”

The cuckoo said repeatedly: "Don't pick it up in vain." You don't have to work too hard to carve this, let the pine trees inside grow, and you can also make bonsai. If the pine tree can't survive, clean it up and use it as a natural and simple vase, much more chic than a porcelain vase. ”

Ren Sanhe over there was puzzled: Has she ever seen porcelain?

Maybe I saw it in Jiu'er's house, and the Lin family also has a few pieces of porcelain.

Jiu'er saw that the cuckoo couldn't put it down, holding the broken tree root that had been rotten and empty, and looked at it repeatedly, and asked Qiusheng: "Brother Qiusheng, when did you pick up this thing?" Why didn't I see you take it out? ”

Lin Chun didn't say a word, and looked at the eldest brother with sparkling eyes.

Qiusheng was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I picked it up when I was with my uncle." I almost forgot about it in my baggage. No, I remembered it again when I saw the cuckoo. ”

The cuckoo held the roots of the tree and asked Lin Chun: "You say, is it better to wait for the pine trees here to grow up and make bonsai, or to scrape off the skin and make a carved vase?" ”

Lin Chun took the root, patted it gently, and said, "This root is rotten on the inside, but very strong on the outside." It should have been exposed to the wind and sun for several years, and it won't rot anymore. Let's keep it first. In a few years, I'll help you make a carved vase. ”

Now, he doesn't have that skill.

The cuckoo nodded hurriedly.

Grandpa is a good worker, but she can't trouble people for this little thing. If Lin Chun's craft is learned, it will be different.

Lin Chun pointed to the bags and knots protruding from the surface of the bark, and said, "Look here, it can be carved into a rock, and there is an ancient pine growing next to it; Here, carved into a stream of water; Above are clouds......"

Although his skills have not yet been completed, he has been nurtured and taught by his grandfather for several years, and with the deliberate guidance of the cuckoo, he himself has spirituality, so he is very capable of imagining.

This is also the main reason why the Lin family let Jiu'er learn to hunt, but chose him to inherit the carpenter's craft. The carpenters of the Lin family are different from ordinary carpenters, and those who are not qualified enough by the descendants of the general family are not allowed to learn, saying that they have learned second-rate crafts and passed them on from generation to generation, and one day they will lose the craftsmanship left by their ancestors. (To be continued......)

PS: Thanks to "Newcastle" for the tip and "Frog Girl" for the pink ticket. I was lonely and warm. I lost my place yesterday without adding a change, but today there is something in the field, only this one. Let's make up for it tomorrow, and if it's too late, I'll make up for today. If it's too late, just wait for the day after tomorrow. Happy Holidays to all!
