Silent mountain road, motorcycles galloping.

The muntjac that I hunted yesterday weighed about fifty pounds, and although I cooked a lot of dishes last night, there was still a lot of meat left. And the hornet's nest, which is more than one person high, layer by layer, almost twenty or thirty layers, has countless bee chrysalis in it, and it can't be eaten at all. So Cai Hongming decided to take a little bit to his aunt and sister-in-law to taste.

His aunt was originally a primary school kindergarten teacher, but later came out of school and opened a kindergarten on her own.

Because of the good reputation, the kindergarten is getting bigger and bigger, and now the kindergarten playground alone has a few acres of land, and the children in the villages around their village are going to school on her side, which is very lively. And his uncle is a middle school Chinese teacher. In Cai Hongming's eyes, his uncle's teaching level is really not very good, and he purely belongs to the category of mixed rice. However, the writing and drawing can barely catch the eye, so in addition to a salary for teaching, his uncle can also get some money from writing and drawing.

A while ago, his uncle called him and bragged that his paintings had sold for a lot of money, one for a thousand.

Is it just a thousand, a lot? Cai Hongming said that it hurt very much.

Today is Sunday, and his aunt and uncle are both on vacation, otherwise it would be really difficult to find someone. When he came to his aunt's house, as soon as he entered the door, he saw his cousin Jiang Yuhan sitting in the hall watching TV.

Jiang Yuhan turned his head when he heard the footsteps, saw that it was Cai Hongming, and shouted, "Brother." ”

"Aren't you working in the capital? How did you get back. Cai Hongming asked strangely.

"It's foggy so much now, you can't stay there. I'm going to come back and look for a job here here on Heron Island. Jiang Yuhan responded.

"Oh, that's not bad, at least it's close to home. Where's your dad? ”

"Draw in the house."

"Where's your mother?"

"I'm going grocery shopping."

"You called her and told her not to buy too much, I brought a lot of things."

"What's good?" Jiang Yuhan curiously walked over and took the bag in Cai Hongming's hand, opened it, and suddenly saw the pile of bee chrysalis in the hornet's nest, and was immediately frightened, "Brother, what is this?" It's scary. ”

Cai Hongming glanced at him with disdain and said, "What's so scary." This is a bee pupae, a high-protein food that is natural and does not add hormone pesticides, which is really uninsightful. Take it to the kitchen, there is a leg of muntjac meat in it, Hongsheng and I went up the mountain to beat it yesterday, and it is still very fresh. The big red and black trout in that bag were given by my sister-in-law. ”

"There's something delicious for noon."

Jiang Yuhan happily took the bag, walked to the kitchen to put it away, and came out to ask Cai Hongming: "Brother, you don't call when you go up the mountain, otherwise I can go and play." I've been getting moldy these days at home. ”

"I don't know if you're coming back, but if you want to play, you can call Hongsheng, that guy doesn't go to work now, he's idle every day, if you look for him to go up the mountain, he will definitely agree."

When Jiang Yuhan heard this, he decided to go to Cai Hongsheng tomorrow to go up the mountain to hunt together. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had been to the mountains.

After saying a few words to his cousin, Cai Hongming walked to his uncle's study.

In the study, his uncle Jiang Ping is concentrating on painting a picture of peony flowers blooming and rich. He didn't bother, and looked at it in his room. The study room, which was originally neatly arranged, was hung with calligraphy and paintings by his uncle. Cai Hongming glanced at it a few times, but didn't see a few of his favorites.

His grandfather, his father and second uncle are ancestral orthopedics of traditional Chinese medicine, and they have been writing with a brush since they were children.

But the best is still his grandfather, there is an old saying that is called "ginger is still old and spicy".

In front of the three of them, his uncle's character is a child. However, his paintings are good, but his uncle's paintings are difficult to enter his eyes at all, except for birds and beasts.

Jiang Ping had long known that Cai Hongming was coming, but he was painting, so he ignored him, and only after he finished painting, did he shout: "Hongming, come and see how I painted?" ”

If you want to talk about his uncle's painting skills, you have to start from many years ago. At that time, he was decorating his home, and he wanted to buy a painting to hang on the wall to be elegant, so he asked the price and found that an ordinary painting was at least more than four hundred, and there was no cheap one. At that time, four hundred yuan was a lot, and his uncle was a little distressed to spend it. When I came back, I didn't feel anything like it when I looked at the painting, so I started painting it myself. During this period, I also went to learn from others for a while, plus his brain can draw, but he can slowly enter the eyes, which belongs to the halfway monk type.

Cai Hongming looked at the large flowers on the table, the flowers were very charming, but he didn't like it, but the peacock on the painting was very spiritual.

His uncle can paint birds, animals, insects, fish, etc., but if he paints complex flowers and trees, it is a cluster of flowers, and it is ruined. He estimated that the person who bought his painting last time was also a fool, otherwise he would not have paid a thousand yuan.

After looking at it, he honestly said, "The peacock painting is good." ”

"What about the flowers?" Jiang Ping asked.

"Not good." Cai Hongming shook his head.

"What's not good, the last time the painting was bought for a thousand yuan." Jiang Ping said with a dissatisfied glare.

After selling the 1,000 yuan of flowers and becoming rich, whenever people said that his paintings were not good, he would use the 1,000 yuan paintings to tell the story, which made people speechless to the extreme. Cai Hongming didn't know what to say about this uncle, and he didn't know how to say it, so he simply changed the topic and said: "Uncle, you can't stay at home every day, you have to go out for a walk from time to time to find inspiration." My sister-in-law bought a yacht and went fishing with him. The last time I went with him, I caught more than 40 large perch of more than two catties, and sold them for almost 20,000 yuan. ”

"Brag!" Jiang Ping obviously didn't believe it.

"What am I lying to you, we went again a few days ago, and caught such a big abalone, such a long cone, and now those snail shells are still at home. Earlier, I also caught a five-pound lobster, and the taste was really delicious. Cai Hongming said with the appearance of abalone, cone snail and lobster.

"Why don't you call me if you have such a good thing, if you want to go another day, I'll go fishing too." Jiang Ping heard Cai Hongming's words and said in his heart.

"Brother, I'm going too, you must call me when you go." Jiang Yuhan didn't know when he came to the study, and when he heard Cai Hongming's words, he hurriedly said.

"Aren't you going to Egret Island to look for work?"

"It's still early? I'm going to look for it after the New Year, and you must call me when you go fishing. ”

"Yes, yes."

"Yuhan, is Hongming here?"

While the three of them were talking, Cai Hongming's aunt Cai Yufeng came in from outside to buy vegetables and saw his motorcycle and asked.

"Yes, he brought a leg of muntjac meat and bee chrysalis, as well as the big red and black trout given by my sister-in-law." Jiang Yuhan turned around and responded

"Oh"

Cai Yufeng walked to the kitchen and opened the big bag containing muntjac meat and bee pupae on the board. As soon as she opened it, she saw a dense pile of bee chrysalis squirming with their heads out, and it felt as terrifying as it was, so frightened that she screamed.

"Ahh

Suddenly hearing the screams from the kitchen, Cai Hongming and the others hurriedly rushed out of the study.
