Chapter 111: The Second Entry into the Mountain
Halfway through, Zhou Yu had time to inquire about the purpose of the fourth uncle's visit this time. It turned out that since he went back with Zhou Yu's reply last time, Wang Zhijiang led the villagers of Xiaowangzhuang to the mountains to start digging rhodiola the next day. After the feelings were piled up several times, Zhou Yu was still not seen going up the mountain, Wang Zhijiang was a little anxious, so the second chicken feather letter arrived urgently.
Zhou Yu wiped the sweat on his face, and in the past two days, he has neglected the matter of Xiaowangzhuang by concentrating on the study of immortal grass, but it doesn't matter, anyway, Rhodiola has to be dried after being carried down the mountain, and it can lose a lot of weight after two days of drying, but it is inevitable that he will be scolded by his uncle.
The fourth uncle secretly looked at Zhou Yu as he walked, why do you say this eldest nephew is so capable? Rhodiola rosea, which has always been considered a weed, can also be sold for a lot of money. I still can't forget the doubts or excited expressions of everyone when Brother Zhijiang told everyone that Rhodiola can be sold for money.
Thinking of this, the fourth uncle couldn't help but shake his head, wasn't he one of those who doubted? Now that the owner of the family is about to come to the village, what do you dare to suspect this time?
The scenery in the mountains is still beautiful and beautiful, but no matter how good the scenery is, the two of them are not in the mood to appreciate it, so they only know that they are blindly burying their heads in the road.
The sun followed the hurried footsteps of the two and slowly moved westward, and by the time the two of them reached Xiaowangzhuang, the fiery red sunset had already covered the western sky, and another dusk arrived as scheduled. At this time, Xiaowangzhuang is bathed in this fiery sunset, which looks so natural and serene.
When I came to the gate of my uncle's house, I looked in from the open gate, and saw Wang Zhijiang walking around the yard, and I didn't know what he was muttering, looking very anxious.
"Uncle! I haven't seen each other for a few days, and I really want to die. Zhou Yu walked into the courtyard and said with a hard mouth.
"You little bunny, why are you here? I'm really anxious, you wait for me, see how my uncle collects ~~~" Speaking of this, Wang Zhijiang felt a chill behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out that it was the old woman who came out of the house and was glaring at him, so he hurriedly guarded his mouth.
"That Xiaoyu, you are such a good boy, you miss your uncle these days." Wang Zhijiang said in a different tone, but the word "think" was almost said through gritted teeth.
"Hey, uncle, let's be with each other." Seeing his aunt come out, Zhou Yu immediately felt that his waist was a lot stiffer, and his tone of voice was not as low as just now.
At this time, my aunt had already come to Zhou Yu and was talking to Zhou Yu affectionately, not caring at all about Wang Zhijiang, who was sharpening his knife on the side. After the two chatted for a while, the aunt was overjoyed and busy cooking for her nephew.
When it was about to get dark, the grandfather who had gone out of the house came back, and when he saw his grandson coming, he smiled happily, and pulled Zhou Yu to sit on the rattan chair in the courtyard and chatted again. Wang Zhijiang, who was waiting on the side, was so anxious that he scratched his heart. Originally, this time I called my nephew over to discuss important matters, but I didn't know that this kid had just entered the door and he didn't have time to ask about Rhodiola Rosea specifically, and he was occupied by the old man and the family's time, and he couldn't insert a sentence if he wanted to, alas, or that sentence, as long as there is this kid in his own status at home, it is plummeting!
From the time Zhou Yu entered the door to the time before eating, Wang Zhijiang never found a chance to chat with Zhou Yu alone for a while. There is no game for dinner today, but the special food in the mountains is also very refreshing.
After eating two bean flour flatbreads and drinking two bowls of salted meat and wild vegetable soup, Zhou Yu finally got eight points full, touched his belly, and sat up straight next to the rattan chair.
Wang Zhijiang saw his nephew's eating appearance and quipped: "Xiaoyu, you have eaten a little little, do you want your aunt to make you something?" ”
Glancing at this unscrupulous uncle, Zhou Yu snorted: "Uncle, be kind." You say that I eat less than the pigs in your pen, right? ”
Wang Zhijiang smiled and didn't speak, but the gloating smile still betrayed him.
Zhou Yu felt that his uncle was really a little embarrassed, so he said to his aunt with a smile: "By the way, aunt, did your family kill chickens a few days ago?" And he killed two at once, a big rooster and an old hen? Why else could my uncle have brought me two letters full of chicken feathers at once? Alas, in fact, you don't have to kill chickens, as long as you don't say a word and let me come to the mountains, even if I am allowed to climb Mount Everest, I will not frown. ”
Hearing Zhou Yu's words, the aunt who was originally smiling suddenly became cloudy, but she was embarrassed to come out because of her father-in-law's presence. But who is Mr. Wang Yunhai? Seeing that her daughter-in-law was wronged, she immediately took her grandson's hand and entered the house, leaving only Wang Zhijiang and his wife in the courtyard.
In fact, as soon as Zhou Yu said about the chicken feather letter, Wang Zhijiang knew that he was going to have bad food, and at first he wanted to follow the old man and his nephew into the house, but after being glared at by the old man, he obediently stayed at the table and waited to accept the punishment.
Sure enough, after the two men entered the house, the aunt pointed at the old man angrily and said, "Master, you are really good, what's the addiction to making chicken feather letters?" It wasn't enough to kill the most beautiful big rooster in our house a few days ago, and this killed the old hen again. I said how come you have been rushing to feed the chickens since this morning, and the feeling is that you killed the chickens for fear that I would find out, right? You said that you are such an old person, why are you still like a child? ”
Wang Zhijiang drooped his head, looking like he confessed his guilt and obeyed the law, he couldn't talk back to a woman at this time, otherwise she would be able to take out all the wrong things you did more than ten years ago and say it again, and she would annoy you to death. Wang Zhijiang sometimes really can't figure it out, why do you think a woman's memory is so good?
After all, the father-in-law and nephew were still in the house, and the aunt was embarrassed to say much at this time, so after a few words of training the old man, he began to clean up the table. By the time Zhou Yu and his grandfather came out, his aunt had already cleaned up the table.
Approaching his uncle's side, Zhou Yu whispered, "Uncle, where is the old hen you killed?" I'm going to have chicken soup tomorrow. ”
Wang Zhijiang is so angry, this stinky boy is still thinking about depriving himself of his achievements? So he said with a tiger face: "There is no chicken soup, there is no chicken feathers, if you want to eat it, there is one chicken butt, and it is still the original product, and the chicken shit in it has not been poured out." How about getting a try? ”
Imagining that he was holding a chicken butt full of chicken shit and gnawing violently, Zhou Yu was so disgusted that the little thing he ate just now almost squirted out.
"Uncle, can you be more disgusting? I want to disgust your nephew to death. Tell you, I have a problem, I have a bad memory when I am disgusting, and I can't answer when you ask me later, so you can blame me. ”
Wang Zhijiang sighed in his heart, his monkey still can't escape from his nephew's Wuzhi Mountain, this kid has a trick to deal with him. But now that he does have something to ask this little bastard, it seems that he can only endure it.
Thinking of this, Wang Zhijiang turned around and walked towards the cellar, and after a while, he took out an old hen from the cellar and said to Zhou Yu: "Oh, Xiaoyu, you see that your uncle has already prepared the chicken for you, just waiting for you to eat." Tomorrow, we'll ask your aunt to make chicken soup for you, you see your uncle is sincere, right? ”
Seeing his uncle's appearance as a well-behaved baby, Zhou Yu couldn't help but smile, nodded and said, "Oh, it seems that my uncle still cares about me very much, my nephew is really grateful, okay, I'll talk to you about Rhodiola Rosea now." ”
At this time, grandpa and aunt also hurried over and sat down around Zhou Yu, they just didn't ask, but they had been thinking about it all the time.
Next, Zhou Yu told the three elders in detail about the acquisition of Rhodiola. After listening to this, even the old man Wang Yunhai, who had always been calm and comfortable, stood up excitedly, and his uncle and aunt were even more surprised, looking incredulous.
After a long while, Wang Zhijiang, who came back to his senses, grabbed Zhou Yu's hand and didn't let go, and said "The eldest nephew is amazing", and he called it so affectionate. And asked Zhou Yu to follow him to dig rhodiola in the old forest tomorrow, and then teach the villagers how to achieve sustainable development. Zhou Yu couldn't resist his uncle, so he had to nod and agree.
In the depths of the night, a mist rose again in the mountains. The whole family went back to the house and chatted excitedly for a while, and then lay down to rest.
