Chapter 6 Mountain Village Huts

This thatched hut is pure thatched hut, it has no fence in front of it, no low wall, and it is the only thatched hut in the empty valley, built next to the stream.

Zhang Wei went straight to the hut and shouted, "Is there anyone?" ”

There was no movement in the hut.

It's weird, I obviously saw smoke coming from here, how could there be no one?

Zhang Wei raised his voice and shouted, "Is there anyone?" ”

This time there was movement in the hut.

"Squeak--" The door of the thatched hut opened, and a sturdy middle-aged man poked his head out and looked Zhang Wei up and down, "Who are you looking for?" ”

Well?

What a special outfit?

The middle-aged man was dressed in coarse cloth, with a round neckline, narrow sleeves, a waist-length waist, wide and long trousers with a few holes, and a pair of straw sandals. Dirty, long, messy hair tied up on the top of his head, perhaps due to long work, and a few weeds on his hair.

What a cool dress-up!

Brother, you hermit has done it thoroughly! If all the hermits in the Qinling Mountains can be as pure as you, there will not be so many people on the Internet who say cool things.

Zhang Wei knew that there were many so-called "hermits" in the area of Zhongnan Mountain in the Qinling Mountains, who wore cloth clothes, ate coarse tea and light rice, walked between the mountains and forests, and absorbed the essence of heaven and earth. These people are for the sake of escapism, and the other is for meditation.

But there are also many of them who are purely for hype, fashionable dress, clean faces, picking herbs and growing vegetables, and posing for photos.

Netizens are very wise, they can see at a glance who is posing for a photo and who is real, and anyone who finds that men and women who are so-called "hermits" for the sake of posing for photos, netizens will definitely give merciless ridicule.

Of course, Zhang Wei himself has done this kind of thing.

However, in the face of the benevolent brother in front of him, Zhang Wei really had nothing to say, and he had already hidden it in his bones. What else can you say?

Just when Zhang Wei was surprised by the man's dress in front of him, the middle-aged man also looked Zhang Wei up and down, "Brother, how strange is your dress?" Where are you from? ”

Am I dressed strangely? Strange?

Zhang Wei looked at his dress, isn't it just a sportswear? What's so strange about this, is it because this cut on me is out of place?

Zhang Wei explained with a smile: "This old man, when he went down the mountain just now, he was accidentally cut by a branch. ”

"No, no, I mean your dress doesn't meet our Datang's dress code." The middle-aged man said to Zhang Wei seriously.

Datang's dress code?

Yes?

Zhang Wei's mouth grew, "What did you say?" Datang's norms, I'm a modern person, what does Datang don't care about Datang's requirements? But brother, your dress is very special, you came to Qinling to be a hermit, right? ”

Hermit?

Zhang Wei's words surprised the middle-aged man, "I'm not a hermit, I'm a hunter in the Qinling Mountains, named He Laoliu, who are you and what are you doing here?" ”

Obviously, He Laoliu was a little angry with Zhang Wei for calling himself a "hermit", and he was a little dissatisfied in his words.

"My name is Zhang Wei, a native of Xi'an, who came to travel in the mountains, was attacked by wild wolves last night, got lost, and wanted to spend the night with you if it was over today." Zhang Wei replied truthfully.

Xi'an people, tourist, lost?

Is this person touristy?

He Lao Liu looked at the young man in front of him fixedly, "What did you say you came here for?" ”

"I'm here for a tour." Zhang Wei replied again.

"Tourism?" It is clear that He Lao Liu is very interested in the word tourism, "What does tourism do?" ”

Yes?

There are still such ignorant people in the whole world, man, your IQ really surprises me.

"Tourism? What is tourism? The question is too simple, so simple that ordinary people can't answer it, Zhang Wei thought for a while and said: "Tourism is to come here to see the scenery." ”

"Look at the scenery, this poor mountain and bad water, what is there to see." The middle-aged man looked at Zhang Wei again, "Well--, you don't look like we croppers, you live a really idle life!" Come in and talk. ”

The middle-aged man let Zhang Wei into the house.

What a quaint place!

After entering the house, Zhang Wei only saw that this room was not a simple hermit hut, but a real home, because in addition to the furnishings, there were also middle-aged wives and two children in this room.

"This is my mother-in-law and my doll." The middle-aged man pointed to the three people in the room and said to Zhang Wei.

Mother-in-law dolls? What a affectionate name.

In Zhang Wei's impression, this kind of title is limited to the name of the wife and children of the rural people in Guanzhong in the past, the times have developed for so many years, and today there are still people who call their wives and children like this, so he smiled and said to the woman: "Zhang Wei has seen his sister-in-law." ”

Seeing Zhang Wei greeting herself, the woman known as "Mother-in-law" timidly put her left hand on her right hand, tilted along the lower right side of her body, and then bowed slightly, "I've seen Zhang Gongzi in the cheap." ”

What kind of society is it, and this kind of meeting gift, it's too rare, it's too unexpected, even if it's acting, your family is too deep into the play.

Surprised, surprised, but this is in other people's homes, how people love that is someone else's business, just like today some people like to wear Hanfu, like to speak ancient sayings, like to eat vegetarian food, so the behavior is good to say is advocating traditional culture, bad to listen to that is also people's personal hobbies, does not affect the stability and unity of the society, does not affect the people to live and work in peace and contentment.

"You two came over to see your uncle." He Lao Liu said to the two children.

"I've seen Uncle Zhang." The two children stepped forward and said to Zhang Wei.

Knowing so much at a young age, Zhang Wei, an outstanding student in the "senior year", was a little embarrassed, and replied with his hand following their example: "Okay, good, my uncle has also seen you." ”

I can feel that although the layout of this mountain family is very simple, people still attach great importance to education, whether it is a wife or a doll, they are very knowledgeable people.

"Brother He's family is full of knowledgeable people." Zhang Wei praised with a smile.

"That's not it, since the founding of our Tang Dynasty, we have attached great importance to poetry and books, not only the dignitaries and nobles in the capital like poetry, but even those of us in the mountains can't lack etiquette, otherwise you nobles will look cheap." He Lao Liu said with a smile.

Datang?

This guy is Datang when he opens his mouth and closes his mouth, did I come to Datang after sleeping in the mountains?

Zhang Wei's heart passed a little uneasy.

I thought to myself, if I really came to Datang, then the Orion in front of me was already a person from a thousand years ago.

Oh my mother, a thousand years ago! Scared the hell out of me.

Zhang Wei stretched out his hand and touched his chest fiercely, calming down his nervous mind.

Thinking about it in a blink of an eye, maybe these mountain people don't know much about the outside world, and have been living a primitive life of male farmers and female weavers, and have always been proud of Datang, so they deliberately said so.

Just when Zhang Wei was surprised, He Lao Liu instructed the woman: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and prepare wine and meat, I want to have a good drink with this Zhang Wei brother tonight." ”

The wine and meat are ready-made, the wine is home-brewed sorghum wine, and the meat is the game that He Laoliu personally picked from the mountains, and after being air-dried, it becomes the so-called "dried meat", which can be eaten after simple heating.

When the woman was preparing the wine and meat, He Laoliu pointed to the wooden pier on the ground and said to Zhang Wei: "Brother sit down and talk." ”

Zhang Wei can see that all the furniture of He Laoliu's house maintains the most primitive style, the table is made of a few pieces of wood, and the stool is a few wooden stakes, which is primitive and simple.

Look at the wine utensils he used are also very primitive things, home-brewed wine is packed in jars, and the drinking utensils are the bowls for eating.

Sitting on the wooden stake of He Lao Liu's house, Zhang Wei had a feeling of being in a different world, am I in modern society or in the Tang Dynasty?
