Chapter 14: The Bear Child and the Slippery Pheasant

The appearance of tofu and bean sprouts really shocked the small mountain village.

Early the next morning, the three elders came together, carefully watched and inquired about the preparation of tofu and bean sprouts, and then left in amazement.

Before leaving, Elder Ming also recited two extremely ancient poems in a thick Luoyang Yayin, as if he was praising him, but he was blind, and Lu Zhe couldn't understand a word.

He's busy competing with his sister right now.

Crossing over to catch up with the winter, Lu Zhe had to stay at home with his sister in the winter, and the firewood at home had already been contracted by Lin Lishui, Lu Zhe had nothing to do all day, the only thing he did every day was to tell the people in the village Journey to the West, he had nothing to do, looked at his sister and decided to teach her some reading.

But how? In this era, traditional Chinese characters are popular, Lu Zhe himself knows but can't write, Lu Zhe tried to find a book to compare and study, but there is no book at home, although he is the master of the Hundred Flowers Sect, and he always says that the Hundred Flowers Sect is secret, but a florist who grows flowers, how can there be a book at home, and even the method of planting flowers is passed down orally, and Lu Zhe himself does not know how to plant flowers.

So he had no choice, so he had to cautiously ask for help from the ghost elder, and said that any book would do, and after the ghost elder thought for a while, he gave Lu Zhe a volume of "The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon".

That's right, it's a volume, because the ghost elder gave him a bamboo slip, which is densely engraved with seal characters.

Seeing that the ghost elder looked like it wasn't you kid I didn't give it, Lu Zhe has a dog now, but he has borrowed it, so it's hard to say no, so he had to respectfully hold this bamboo slip and go home and put it in his cabinet, as for the content, he couldn't understand a word.

Therefore, Lu Zhe decided that at the beginning of spring next year, he must ask Uncle Ying to get himself a book for children to come back.

There are no textbooks, so Lu Zhe had to choose some words that are the same in both traditional and simplified Chinese to teach his sister according to what he had learned before, such as people, mountains, months, and days, and teach some of the texts he had learned before, what "Autumn is coming, the leaves are yellow, and the geese are lined up in one word for a while, and they are lined up in a word for a while." "Small bamboo rows, swimming in the painting, birds singing, fish swimming" and so on.

About these, my sister likes it very much, the small mountain village is very closed, these catchy things in Yun Niang's opinion, it is simply the best nursery rhyme, so she went in and out all day long and read "The chicken paints bamboo leaves, the dog paints plum blossoms" and the like, and also taught many children in the village.

The Chinese class was fine, but in the arithmetic class, Lu Zhe encountered major difficulties. He finally found the wooden plate and the fine river sand, and Lu Zhe began to teach his sister basic arithmetic knowledge, but the result was very little.

My sister feels very disgusted with mathematics, and after teaching for many days, it will count to 20, and the addition and subtraction within ten is also very difficult, and as soon as she learns arithmetic, she begins to shed tears, crying that Yun Niang will not learn.

Sometimes Lu Zhe can't help but sigh, why he read novels in his previous life, any of the protagonist's relatives is a genius, when teaching others knowledge, the other party not only learns quickly but also has an extreme thirst for knowledge, which is like his own Yun Niang, exactly the same as the bear child who is tired of learning in later generations.

What about being overjoyed if you are thirsty for knowledge? Said that a good talent and beautiful jade can be understood at one point? Why can't he touch any of them, Lu Zhe was a little depressed.

Today is still taught the decomposition and combination of numbers, Lu Zhe asked his sister to memorize the decomposition of seven that she learned yesterday, and the little girl can't memorize it except that seven can be divided into one and six.

"What else?" Lu Zhe looked at his sister with a straight face.

"Seven can be divided into, can be divided into two and, two and...... Wow, Yun Niang doesn't know, it's too difficult to divide this into two, it's too difficult...... Woowoo...... It's too hard. Looking at her brother's increasingly serious face, Yun Niang cried as soon as she spoke.

"And the face to cry, my brother taught you a day yesterday, and he taught you before going to bed, how could you forget it so quickly." Lu Zhe didn't want to keep a straight face, he taught Yun Niang for a day yesterday, looking at Yun Niang's appearance of not knowing three things, I don't know how, I got angry, and yelled at my sister for the first time.

"Wow...... A-Niang...... Yun Niang won't ...... My brother is ...... murder. The little girl was also very aggrieved, crying louder, she had a good time every day, who knew that her brother must let her learn this Rausch arithmetic, if she couldn't memorize it, her brother, who was very good to her on weekdays, also became fierce, Yun Niang felt very aggrieved, obviously it was too difficult to "divide into two", and the brother actually came to murder himself.

"Even if A-Niang sees Yun Niang like this, she will also spank you." Hearing the little girl's voice, Lu Zhe's heart was also sour, but his tone became harder. I must not delay the little girl because of a moment of soft-heartedness.

"Wow...... Wow...... Where are you...... Yun Niang misses you so much. The little girl cried even more hysterically.

"You've cried enough. I'll have to take the test when I come back later. After saying this, Lu Zhe closed the door and went out in a huff.

This bear kid is so annoying. Lu Zhe walked out of the door and thought angrily. But after thinking about it, Yun Niang is still a child, she has never had enough snacks and clothing, and she has lost her parents, and she has only her only brother, no matter what, she shouldn't yell at her, even if it's for her good. But this book still has to be read, it is precisely because it is his own sister, so he has to teach her well, otherwise how can he be worthy of his dead parents and the ancients who were occupied by his dove, thinking of this, Lu Zhe was even more determined to teach Yun Niang to learn culture.

As soon as the cold wind of winter blew, Lu Zhe calmed down, and felt a little regretful, he was in a hurry, the other party was just a little girl who had just learned, and she had not yet developed the habit of learning, and it might be counterproductive to yell at her like this, causing Yun Niang to hate arithmetic even more, and she should use other methods to guide her to fall in love with learning.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhe, who was full of guilt, prepared to go home to coax his sister.

As soon as I walked to the door, I couldn't hear my sister's cry, only a milky voice: "Seven can be divided into three and four, and four and three, you must remember, when the brother of the Lu family comes back, Yun Niang will recite it to him." ”

"Huh? This voice is-" Lu Zhe entered the house lightly and saw the Duan family's little Lori, who was Duan Ergou's sister, named Duan Xiaoniang, who was comforting her sister at the moment, and was still trying to teach her the decomposition and combination of seven.

"Ahem." Lu Zhe coughed lightly, and the two little Loli were suddenly startled, and when they saw that it was Lu Zhe who came back, they were too frightened to speak.

"Little sister of the Duan family, come on, let me ask you, will you recite the decomposition of these seven?" Lu Zhe looked at Duan Xiaoniang with a smile, like the legendary gray wolf.

"Uh-huh." The little girl hid behind Yun Niang and said timidly.

"Did Yun Niang teach you when she was playing?" Lu Zhe smiled even brighter.

The little girl nodded.

"Yun Niang taught you when she was playing, and you will memorize it, Xiao Niang is so smart, can you recite it to me." Lu Zhe then remembered that on weekdays, what Lu Zhe taught Yun Niang, the little girl would read it as a nursery rhyme when she was playing, and the little lady of the Duan family was close to her sister in age, and she was inseparable on weekdays, so she must have learned it.

"Seven can be divided into one and six, and seven can be divided into two and five......" The little girl obediently memorized, her voice was very small, but she memorized the decomposition of seven fluently.

"Xiao Niang is so smart, what does Xiao Niang remember, can you recite it to my brother together." Lu Zhe held his sister, who was still crying, in his arms, gently wiped away Yun Niang's tears, and asked while comforting Yun Niang.

"The little lady will carry other ones." When Lu Zhe praised Duan Xiaoniang, her voice also became louder, "Autumn is coming, the leaves are yellow......" It took less than a while to memorize it, and to Lu Zhe's surprise, all the texts that Yun Niang learned the little girl would, and word for word.

It's a genius, this little girl is younger than Yun Niang, and her memory is so good, Lu Zhe just asked him questions about his family, and the little girl also answered all of them, and the logic is also very clear.

"Little lady, do you like these texts? Are you willing to be Yun Niang's classmate? Lu Zhe is like a strange uncle who abducts children, with a light in his eyes.

"Brother Lu, what I just read, my little mother likes it very much, what else is a classmate." The little girl was like a porcelain doll, and said in a milky voice.

"It's good to like it, it's good to like it, what this classmate means is that you are willing to work with Yun Niang every day to learn these things I teach Yun Niang."

Hearing Lu Zhe's words, Duan Xiaoniang tilted her head and thought about it carefully, she used to play with Yun Niang every day, but recently Yun Niang has to read and read at home every morning, and in the afternoon, it is the time for the Lu family brother to talk about Journey to the West, and she has a lot less time to play with Yun Niang every day. Thinking of this, the little girl nodded.

"Little lady is willing."

"Great." Lu Zhe has a feeling that the gray wolf has deceived the pleasant goat. is worthy of being a descendant of Shanmen, and his qualifications are really first-class. Just relying on her sister's relay, Duan Xiaoniang's learning effect is better than Yun Niang's, and she has picked up a prodigy.

"In this way, today's little lady will be Yun Niang's little gentleman, teach her the decomposition and combination of seven, I will no longer teach Yun Niang anything, tomorrow morning, Xiao Niang will come over again and take classes with Yun Niang." Lu Zhe looked at the aggrieved appearance of his sister in his arms, and his heart softened, "If Yun Niang can memorize the decomposition of seven today, brother, I will make Yun Niang and Xiao Niang a delicious meal that you have never eaten." ”

As a sentence was spoken, the eyes of the two Loli widened, and in the small eyes like black jewels, there was a smart light.

"Brother, don't lie."

"How can my brother lie to Yun Niang, Yun Niang will carry it well, and my brother will make you a pheasant to eat later. If you can't carry it, then the biggest pheasant leg will have to be eaten by Duan Xiaoniang. ”

"Yun Niang wants to eat a slippery pheasant, Yun Niang can carry it down." Thinking of the delicious food that her brother said, Yun Niang burst into tears and laughed.

"Slippery pheasant, carry down, carry down." Duan Xiaoniang was also cheering for her little friend next to her.

So Yun Niang broke free from Lu Zhe's embrace, ran to Duan Xiaoniang's side with a bang, and carried it seriously.

Looking at the two cute little Loli milky voices, one teaching, the other learning, extremely serious, Lu Zhe was cute, quietly withdrew from the hall, and began to prepare.

The game sent by Deng Zhu and others the day before yesterday, Lu Zhe processed all of them, and hung them under the eaves to dry, just in winter, although the temperature outside the house was only a few degrees, Lu Zhe was a little afraid to guarantee that these wild meat would not rot, plus he yelled at Xiao Lori today, and felt a little guilty, so he was ready to eat some first.

Considering the amount of food of the three people and the size of the grouse, Lu Zhe took off the two grouse, washed them and wiped them carefully with salt water, waited until the salt water was completely immersed in the grouse, added the washed millet and soaked pine mushrooms to the chicken's belly, bundled them, wrapped them layer by layer with large leaves, and then tied them with rattan on the outside, pasted with a layer of mud, made mud balls, and put them into the pit just dug out of the mud together with firewood, and then lit a fire on them.

The fire was blazing, Lu Zhe was roasting the fire, while boringly singing the pop songs of later generations, and after waiting for almost half an hour, Lu Zhe heard the sound of grease in the fire, so he used soil to extinguish the fire and use embers to heat it.

After doing all this, when he returned to the house, he saw that the two little girls were already playing in a good way, giggling on the kang.

Seeing Lu Zhe come in, Yun Niang proudly shouted to her brother, "Brother, brother, Yun Niang already knows how to carry it." After speaking, Yun Niang began to memorize it, and memorized the decomposition of seven in one go.

"Yun Niang is so good. The little lady is also so powerful, she is a qualified little gentleman, and my brother will go to get the pheasant. Lu Zhe praised the two little loli, turned around and ran to the backyard, and the two lolias ate chicken hearts and followed out.

At this time, it was already noon, although the people of the Tang Dynasty only ate two meals a day, and some Tang Dynasty commoners only ate one meal in winter, but Lu Zhe still dug out the two mud balls.

"Brother is a liar, it's obviously a mud dumpling, where is a slippery pheasant." Seeing the two mud balls, Yun Niang shouted, thinking that her brother was a big liar, and Duan Xiaoniang also nodded beside her. I think this fairy kid is actually a person who specializes in deceiving children, just now she and Yun Niang discussed, where is there a pheasant with slippery feet, if there is, wouldn't it be unstable at all, and be caught stupidly.

The little girl didn't know the meaning of calling flowers, and because of the dialect, she thought that her brother was talking about chickens with very slippery feet. Seeing the two mud balls, the two little Loli who were still looking forward to it before, their eyes dimmed at this time, especially Yun Niang, who had wasted a lot of effort to memorize the decomposition of seven and had been looking forward to it for a long time, when she saw the two big mud balls in front of her, there was water in her eyes again.

"Don't cry, don't cry, wait for my brother to conjure a pheasant for you." Seeing that the two little loli were about to drop the golden beans, Lu Zhe hurriedly picked up the wooden stick and knocked open the outer layer of mud shells.

A white breath came out in an instant, with the aroma of chicken, carefully took out the chicken, picked up the leaves, and there was yellow-brown chicken inside, the two little girls were stunned, and they couldn't stop sucking their noses.

"Let's go, eat pheasants!" Lu Zhe waved his hand.
