Chapter 125: Wangxia Festival
Although the day-to-day slimming life is boring, there are some happy episodes in between.
The early summer has just arrived, and it is the time when everything is thriving, and Lotus Flower Village quietly ushered in the annual "Wangxia Festival".
On the sixth day of the fifth month of May every year, Lotus Flower Village is customarily financed by each family and held the "Wangxia Festival" worship ceremony under the leadership of the village head. Killing pigs and sheep, beating gongs and lion dances, hundreds of people told the same story, praying for God's blessing to be able to regulate the wind and rain smoothly after entering the summer, without drought and waterlogging; Second, I pray for a good harvest for every household this fall.
And on the night after the ceremony, a very interesting activity will be held in the lotus flower village, green picking. Every family in the village, young and old, would go out to guard the crops in their fields that night.
In the eyes of their honest countrymen, the crops growing in the ground at this moment are the time to gather spiritual energy and thrive; Once the crops in one's own field are stolen by others, it means that the good harvest has been stolen and the blessing is lost. Naturally, they don't want the blessings in their fields to be stolen by others, and the whole family has to work hard to protect them.
The better the field, the easier it is to be coveted by others. This year, the rice growth in Uncle Niu's acres of land is particularly gratifying, and it has naturally become the number one target in this "green picking" activity.
Sheng Zijun, who had just eaten enough at the "Hundred Family Banquet" in the village, touched his bulging belly and burped contentedly, and the thief's eyes rolled and muttered in Zhu Xishi's ear.
"Let's go, we'll help too."
Zhu Xishi, who was sitting in the banquet, kept holding chopsticks in a daze. It's not that the "Hundred Family Banquet" in this lotus flower village is not well organized. But the big fish and meat on the table made her unable to get off the chopsticks at all, and Zhu Xishi, who was thin and taboo, really felt inexplicably sad.
"What a daze, let's go!"
"How can you help?"
At this time, Zhu Xishi came back to his senses. looked back at Sheng Zijun who was smiling at the thief with a puzzled face, and couldn't figure out what he was secretly happy about.
"Cai Qing, such an interesting thing, how can the two of us miss it lightly!"
"Cai Qing" came out of his mouth, coupled with his appearance of thief eyebrows and rat eyes at this time, at first glance, he was a wild child who wanted to take the opportunity to do bad things, and Zhu Xishi immediately bent him.
"You are looking for scolding and beating. Don't pick the green, but was bitten by someone else's dog. ”
"It's all about participation~~"
"I think it's better not to be blindly involved, the crops that people have worked hard for months to plant. What a pity it was ruined overnight. Haven't studied? Who knows that Chinese food is hard work. ”
As soon as he heard Zhu Xishi's mouth was adjusted, Sheng Zijun also squirmed with his mouth flat.
"You're making a mistake again. This is an annual event in Lotus Village, and the local people don't care about these. But here you pretend to be a bodhisattva and have compassion for others. Let's go. Even if we don't make a mess, we always have to help Uncle Niu's family, right? You must know that their family is the one who is being targeted this year. ”
It's quite reasonable to think about it, but before Zhu Xishi could save face, Sheng Zijun couldn't wait to pull her up and run towards Uncle Niu's field outside the village
"Uncle Niu~~!"
Like a happy rabbit, Sheng Zijun, who was trotting on the country road, waved his little hands happily and greeted Uncle Niu who was sitting on the edge of the field smoking dry tobacco.
As soon as he saw Zhu Xishi and Sheng Zijun, Uncle Niu's dark face slowly condensed into a sincere smile. Slightly shyly waved in response.
"Eat it so quickly?!"
"Eat! So I came to join in the excitement of this night's 'green picking'. ”
Looking at Sheng Zijun patting his bulging belly with satisfaction, Zhu Xishi, who barely ate much next to him, naturally looked unsightly. Taking advantage of his slackness, he threw a hand at his stomach.
"You're the one who spoils the grain."
"Oh hey, my stomach was broken by you. Painful feeding~ painful to death"
Immediately, Sheng Zijun's acting skills exploded, squatting in place and playing tricks. Is Zhu Xishi the master who can be bluffed by his stinky boy? Besides, she didn't have any strength just now, and immediately picked up her finger and poked it at the side of his head.
"If you continue to perform, do you want to set up a stage for you, and invite the whole village to watch and watch while beating gongs and drums?! I don't think you have a broken stomach, but you are full of desires! If you don't get me up, I'll kick you into the ditch and gnaw the mud!" ”
Knowing that Zhu Xishi was the kind of person who could say and do, Sheng Zijun's face panicked, and he even crawled on the ground and became vigilant, for fear that there would be a trick behind her.
"You fierce can't afford to make a joke!"
"Sheng Chicken, your skin is itchy, aren't you?!"
Suddenly, Zhu Xishi started to squirm with him, and the two of them were like two larks frolicking in the clouds, chasing me among the criss-crossing fields.
"Doctor Sheng, Miss Zhu, you two slow down! The field is narrow, be careful not to pay attention to the ditch really planted. ”
Looking at the two of them who were constantly playing, Uncle Niu, who was biting the dry cigarette holder, was also smiling from ear to ear. The local truth of the countrymen: beating is kissing, scolding is love, spitting is talking about love, these two of them are happy enemies, but in the eyes of Uncle Niu, the more they look at it, the more they are right.
"Okay, okay, chasing the old lady in a hot sweat."
When chasing after Zhu Xi, he brushed the bangs on his forehead, and he also vomited convincingly. This Sheng Zijun's chicken feet with a pair of thin bamboo poles are really good at running! After glaring at Sheng Zijun a few times, Zhu Xishi, who was running hot, came to Uncle Niu's side, took off his shoes like him, and quickly stretched his little feet into the water flow of the ditch as soon as he pulled his trousers.
It's so cool!!
Seeing that there was no time to play, Sheng Zijun also sat down in the field not far away, learning from the two of them to be cool and cool. It's just that when he raised his foot from time to time www.biquge.info to pick up the pen and splashed the water on Zhu Xi, it seemed that the previous fun had not faded, and he wanted to continue to tease Zhu Xishi to play with him.
"Are you going to keep playing tricks?!"
Wiping the water droplets splashed on his face, Zhu Xishi made a false action to prepare for an attack, and suddenly Sheng Zijun bounced up like an alert little mouse and dodged a little farther away.
"Chickens are chickens. Look at your cowardice. Don't let the old lady catch you, otherwise you will have to pluck you naked! ”
"Come on, come on, can you catch me? Eh~~~"
When he saw Zhu Xi, he was just bluffing to scare himself. Sheng Zijun hurriedly grimaced at her childishly to show provocation. This situation and this scene suddenly made Zhu Xishi and Uncle Niu laugh.
"Uncle Niu, you said that his boss is still as ignorant as a child, and he laughs to death."
"Doctor Sheng, this is a childlike and good-hearted."
Uncle Niu's steady answer calmed down a lot of Zhu Xishi's insistence on continuing to play with Sheng Zijun. Calm down. Turning his head in the afterglow of a golden sunset, he looked at the rice grass in Uncle Niu's field behind him in the breeze, the verdant colors blended with the golden yellow of the sunset. It makes people feel a kind of indescribable comfort in their hearts.
Sunrise and sunset, guarding one's own side of tranquility and stability, is the happiest thing in the world.
"Uncle Niu. Look at the growth of the crops in this field. It's going to be a good harvest this year. ”
Following Zhu Xishi's gaze, Uncle Niu also turned his head to look at the fields he had worked hard behind him, and his face unconsciously showed a smile that was brighter than the golden sunset.
"I hope God will take care of you a lot, and the wind and rain will be smooth."
"Don't worry, Uncle Niu, we promise that no one will be able to steal a single seedling from your field tonight. With such a good crop, we must keep the blessing! ”
Sheng Zijun, who had been hanging for a long time, was unwilling to interject lonely; Zhu Xishi and Uncle Niu turned around at the same time and looked at him who was obligatory. They laughed in unison.
"Don't talk big, I'll be happy for a while, I see that you forgot everything about your surname. Do you still want to help Uncle Niu guard the fields? ”
"Zhu Dagu, you are too underestimated. Is my Sheng Zijun this kind of unrighteous person? ”
Covering his mouth and laughing a little worse, Zhu Xishi restrained his desire to laugh and returned to him seriously.
"It's not that I underestimate you, it's that you can't stand it. You're a red boy. ”
Red Boy? Sheng Zijun was suddenly puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "Why am I a red child?" ”
"The child king."
“”
was jokingly said by Zhu Xishi, Sheng Zijun suddenly wilted, lowered his head sullenly, and kept churning his feet in the ditch.
The child king was childish, Zhu Xishi really wanted to conjure up a piece of candy at this time and handed it to Sheng Zijun and coaxed: Good girl, aunt will give you candy to eat.
"Yo, why did you all come to the field so early to guard?"
Suddenly, a voice interjected happily, and the three of them immediately raised their heads to look, and saw Aunt Niu with Niu Xiaomei, carrying a wine jug, and holding an old man's oil paper and smiling.
"Auntie, are you here too? Xiaomei, come and sit here with my sister. ”
As soon as their mother and daughter stepped forward, Zhu Xishi enthusiastically pulled Niu Xiaomei to sit with him. Niu Xiaomei, whose face was ruddy, smiled shyly, and returned to Zhu Xi in a soft voice.
"My mother was afraid that my father would be hungry, so I sent him some wine and snacks."
Hearing what her daughter said, Aunt Niu smiled even more heartily, and after handing the wine jug to Uncle Niu, she opened the oil paper bag, which was full of braised beef, fried peanuts, pig's head meat and other appetizers.
"Ah Niu, I'm hungry."
"It's fine. I'm also bothering you and Xiaomei to take a trip. ”
"Who are you being polite to?" Aunt Niu glanced at Uncle Niu with a smile, then grabbed a piece of braised beef and handed it to Uncle Niu: "Come, eat a piece of meat to pad your stomach, it's not good to drink on an empty stomach." ”
Looking at Aunt Niu's somewhat ** action, the honest Uncle Niu glanced at the people around him, and suddenly felt embarrassed: "I'll just come by myself, everyone and the children will look at it." ”
"It's all old husbands and wives, what's the shame."
Aunt Niu didn't care about the people around her, and stubbornly stuffed the braised beef in her hand into Uncle Niu's mouth, and Uncle Niu looked at it embarrassedly, but obediently ate the beef that Aunt Niu fed.
"Wow, Xiaomei, look, how good your father's relationship is. Applaud. ”
In the cheers and applause, Uncle Niu and Aunt Niu both blushed, but they all showed happy smiles.
This is not a momentary coaxing, Uncle Niu and Aunt Niu in front of him have deeply touched Zhu Xishi. Wishing to win the hearts of one person, and the white heads are not separated, isn't that a true portrayal of them now?
What woman never expected such a person to be by her side until the day when her hair turned gray. (To be continued......)
