Chapter 21: The Time Has Come
At this time, Guan Yun did not know how much impact what happened in the county party committee on his future, and he was riding his bicycle to the foot of Pingqiu Mountain with great interest.
The bicycle could not go up the mountain, so he locked the bicycle casually, put it under a big tree at the foot of the mountain, and then picked a few red round sweet fruits from the side of the road, and ate sweet fruits while walking, in a happy mood, with light steps, and arrived at the top of the mountain in a short time.
Pingqiu Mountain is inaccessible all year round, and strangely, there is no inaccessible desolation. There is a naturally formed forest in the north of the county, and it is also very desolate and scary, the weeds are one person high, the yin air is thick, and there are unknown strange screams, but the mountain air is fresh, the stream is clear, and it is refreshing to be in it, and the twenty-first chapter is still refreshing.
No wonder Lao Rongtou said that Pingqiu Mountain has aura, Guan Yun thought while walking, turned to the right at the top of the mountain, there was a very dense bush, pushed away the bushes, there was a cave that could just allow one person to pass, after the cave, the eyes suddenly opened up, it was a very flat world, there was a blue sky on the top, and there were a hundred flowers below, just like a garden hanging in the air.
Since Lao Rongtou moved here, this place has been called the Hanging Garden.
The last time she brought Wa'er here, Guan Yun didn't lead her to the top of the mountain, because he didn't want her to disturb the tranquility of the old man.
Standing on the top of the mountain, you can see the whole Kong County, in the north, there are high-rise county seats, in the south, there are endless fields, and in the west, there is a small river that shimmers. To the east, there are villages one after another.
Guan Yun stood on the top of the mountain alone, there was only the sound of wind and birds chirping, and there was no voice, he suddenly felt a lot more open-minded, the turbidity in his heart was swept away, thinking of the past, thinking about Xia Lai and Xia Dechang in the capital, and then remembering that the situation in Kong County had quietly changed, and his heart suddenly burst with passion. It's been a year, it's been a whole year, it's time for him to take advantage of the situation!
Not far away, there is a small courtyard Chapter 21 The fire has arrived, the small courtyard is not big, there are flowers and grass, there are trees and bamboos, quiet and empty, quiet and far-reaching, there are mountain springs in the courtyard, there are farm tools, and there is also a stone mill, just like a simple landscape painting, where it enters the eye, there is history everywhere.
There was only one thatched hut in the courtyard, and in the thatched hut, a large tree passed through the house, and the dense shade of the thatched hut was tightly shaded. There is a landscape painting similar to this scene - a thatched hut with a green mountain, and half an old pine and half of me.
Guan Yun pushed open the wooden door and came to the courtyard, smelling the fragrance of wild vegetables and stewed hares, he smiled, first went to the water tank and washed his face with mountain spring water, picked up a broom and cleaned the fallen leaves in the courtyard, and then ran to the pepper tree in the southwest corner of the courtyard and pulled a handful of peppercorns, rubbed them with his hands, and blew the impurities with his mouth, and ran quickly towards the kitchen in the west of the courtyard.
"Old Rongtou, don't put peppercorns in rabbit meat, the fragrance is not thick enough, flash away, peppercorns are coming." Guan Yun trotted all the way to the kitchen, and saw the casserole boiling on the fire suddenly steaming, and the pot was tumbling with broth with meat flowers, and a whole rabbit was floating in the broth, as well as several wild vegetables common in the field, which was full of fragrance.
Wild vegetables stewed with hare, pure natural game.
The old Rong Tou, who was wearing an apron and cutting green onions, saw Guan Yun rushing in, blocked Guan Yun's way as if frightened, stretched out his hands to prevent Guan Yun from passing, Guan Yun laughed, raised his hand, and the pepper in his hand was accurately thrown into the casserole.
"Stinky boy, I'm mad at you!" Seeing that he didn't stop Guan Yun, Lao Rongtou was so angry that he threw the kitchen knife in his hand and left angrily, "You can eat it yourself, I can't kill you!" ”
Few people know that Lao Rongtou lives on the top of Pingqiu Mountain, and few people know that Lao Rongtou's small courtyard was built by Guan Yun with bricks, tiles, tables and chairs when he was free, and few people know that Lao Rongtou doesn't like to eat peppercorns, while Guan Yun likes to put peppercorns in stir-fried vegetables and stews.
Usually, as long as he has time, Guan Yun will come to Lao Rongtou for lunch or dinner, and after Lao Rongtou's breakfast stall is closed, he usually cats at the top of the mountain and does not go anywhere. Either catch a few hares and pheasants to improve your life, or practice calligraphy and play tai chi, and your life is really leisurely like a fairy.
"Old Rongtou, I was wrong, I won't dare next time, you just spare me once, okay?" Guan Yun begged Lao Rongtou for mercy, he didn't have Lao Rongtou's skills in stewing meat, if Lao Rongtou let it go, a pot of meat would become a semi-finished product.
The old man ignored Guan Yun, sat on the bluestone in the courtyard with his head bored, sulking with his back to Guan Yun. Guan Yun tiptoed behind Lao Rongtou, suddenly patted Lao Rongtou's shoulder, and begged: "Old Rongtou, don't be angry, you said that you are old, and you are still angry with a junior with me, it seems that you have no energy, hurry up, the meat will be stewed when it is too late, and now it is the fire." ”
"Do you know it's the heat? Your peppercorns are the most accurate, you stinky boy is really blessed, I prepared three days of delicious food was all stirred by your peppercorns, knowing that I don't eat peppercorns, you still deliberately put it, into the heart to eat alone? When the old man was angry, he was like a child, and his puffing appearance was very interesting, and his white beard trembled slightly, as if he had been wronged.
Guan Yun sat opposite Lao Rongtou and grinned: "You old man can't say that about me, I'm not a person who eats alone, I just want you to try a new event, there's nothing wrong with peppercorns, why don't you like to eat it?" Do you not like to eat or dare not eat? Have the courage to try and challenge, if you don't like to eat, you can try to like it, don't dare to eat, you must try to overcome your inner fear, challenge yourself, and taste the taste that you dare not face. ”
"Can you speak? I'm old and don't want to try again. Lao Rongtou stretched out his hand and slapped Guan Yun's head, then laughed again, "Speaking of heat, why don't you stay in the county party committee compound, and you have to come to Pingqiu Mountain to throw a handful of seasoned peppercorns into my meat pot?" Now the fire in the county party committee is also time, you don't keep it, aren't you afraid of passing the heat? ”
"Don't be afraid." Guan Yun said with a smile, "A pot of meat in the county has been cooked, rabbits are available, and wild vegetables are also available, but there is still a handful of peppercorns, no, I came to you to find peppercorns." ”
The old man smiled, didn't answer, got up and came to the kitchen, took out a soup spoon and scooped a little soup, put it in his mouth and tasted it, nodded and praised: "The taste is not bad, as soon as you put the peppercorns, the soup has a lot of flavor, come, you taste it......"
Guan Yun ran over and tasted the rabbit and wild vegetable broth, which was really delicious, and he couldn't help but have an appetite.
"Come, eat, talk while eating." The old man put his head on the table and took out a bottle of old wine.
Rabbit leg baked cakes, coupled with delicious and pure broth, and the old Rongtou carefully brewed soju, in a small courtyard like a paradise on the top of Pingqiu Mountain, an old and a young sit opposite each other, feasting, eating and sweating profusely.
