Chapter 66: Buying a Mountain
Shen Ning smiled softly, standing by the bonfire plainly, the firelight reflected her face, making people feel gentle.
Three or five children laughed and ran from far away, and took the roasted fragrant bird or rabbit meat from her hand one by one. The children in the mountains love these game meats the most, although there are no high-quality seasonings, but the wood-fired roasting makes the meat crispy and the meat overflows with fat, which is the rarest and most delicious snack.
"Sister, if you have something to say in the future, don't keep it in your heart." Shen Kang said.
Shen Ning nodded: "Hmm." ”
Shen Chang said: "Eldest sister, the two of us will protect you." ”
Shen Ning still nodded: "Hmm." She breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "He is always like that, people can't say no, and it's disgusting, and it's because of the two of you that I got out." ”
What is terrible to say, this is it.
Li Shen's usual honest appearance with a lovely smile, if he doesn't talk back, if he doesn't fight back, he still defends you everywhere, if you are Shen Ning, what can you do.
is the only one who has fallen out like this, no matter what others think, at least she can be justified and never look at that person with her eyes right, which is really comfortable.
"Boss! Dick! Third! I'm home, I'm going to get up early tomorrow and go into town! Shen Wang shouted at the door.
The children on the side let out a cry of disappointment: "Ah... Haven't had enough of it! ”
Shen Ning smiled and handed the firecracker in his hand to a child: "Be careful, don't hurt yourself." ”
"Thank you, Sister Shen Ning!" The child turned his head and ran, and the children on the side followed closely.
Shen Kang smiled and experienced that through life, reading, fighting, scolding people, fighting junglers, there were so many delicate ancient lives.
In the early morning of the next day, Shen Kang got up early as usual, practiced a set of five poultry operas and jogged for more than half an hour, and when he broke out in a stinky sweat, he scrubbed it with cold well water and returned home to eat in the morning.
Because he wanted to take Yang Chengli into the county to return the donkey, Shen Cheng didn't dare to delay at all, hurriedly pulled a bowl of vegetable porridge, and pushed the bowl away.
Shen Wang grabbed his sleeve and said, "Eat goat's milk and chickens!" ”
Shen Cheng couldn't get used to eating goat's milk, so he just threw the shelled chicken into his mouth, and said, "I don't have a milk doll, it's nothing to drink less." ”
Shen Kang smiled and said, "Dad, a glass of milk a day is a strong and bright person." Our family buys sheep for milk, and the whole family has to drink it. Especially when people reach middle age, they are prone to osteoporosis and other symptoms, waist and leg problems are prone to problems, bone loss is a big problem, you must pay attention to it early, you see that..."
"Come on..."Boss Shen Cheng reluctantly took the goat's milk from Shen Wang's hand, and muttered: "After reading the book, why is this kid's mouth still broken, full of truth, I'm a father who can't say you, can't I drink it..."
As he spoke, he endured the fishy smell and drank the goat's milk in one gulp.
Shen Wang took the empty bowl with a smile, turned his head and said: "Little San, don't say it, I have been drinking goat's milk every day for a while, and my mother's face seems to be tender, and the little daughter-in-law of the Ma family asked what was going on yesterday." The mother told her to drink goat's milk every day, and she also said that she would go to buy a sheep in a few days and come back. ”
"Hehe, my mother and eldest sister drink more milk is good for the skin, my second brother and I are growing up, we can grow taller after drinking milk, and my father can also prevent bone loss, and there are many benefits of drinking milk."
Shen Ning smiled lowly and said, "This is the truth in the book?" ”
Shen Chang shook his head and said, "Three hundred miles didn't talk about this. ”
Shen Kang looked at the ruddy faces of the family, and felt that it was good to be rich. It doesn't have to be too much, as long as the family is healthy, can afford to eat, and wants to wear and wear.
Shen Cheng's hands and feet were nimble, but he put the ox cart on the cart in a few moments, and spread thick hay on the cart. Shen Chang and Shen Kang also ran out of food and ran out of the house.
The two teenagers were dressed in a short pair of blue coarse cloth and thick cotton clothes to block the wind, looking a little bloated, but they were completely pleasing.
The two jumped into the ox cart and nestled in the hay. Shen Cheng said, "Let's go." Then he led the oxen out of the yard and sat in front of the cart.
In fact, the cow can still run very fast, but it is very bumpy, the Shen family father and son came to the entrance of the village, picked up Yang Chengli, tied the donkey to the back of the car, and the group went straight to the county seat.
Xiping County is still as lively and prosperous as ever, with ox carts creaking on the stone road. Shen Kang gradually felt that his back was hot, thinking that there was a big difference in temperature between the county town and the mountain village, and it was the time when the sun was getting thicker, so he felt hot.
He took off his thick cotton clothes, and then looked at the market, most of the bustling people passing through were wearing spring light shirts, and it seemed that no matter ancient or modern, people in the city always changed their clothes faster than in the countryside.
He chuckled under his breath, seeing that there were more and more flower stalls on the street, and among these flowers and plants, there were mostly various orchids. He was a little suspicious and said, "There are a lot of orchid sellers." ”
Yang Chengli glanced at it and said with a smile: "March 3, give birth to Xuanyuan." In a few days, it will be the third day of March, when both the government and the people will dip the orchid in running water to wash and cleanse the body of diseases. ”
"March three?" Shen Kang thought for a moment and said, "You mean the Shangsi Festival, right?" ”
Yang Chengli nodded, and continued: "That's an ancient name, you know a lot." ”
Shen Kang said with a smile: "The birthday of the ancestor of the Han people, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, I don't know if such a grand festival will be remembered and commemorated hundreds of years later." ”
"Children's banter." Yang Chengli said with a straight face: "How can anyone forget to commemorate the birthday of their ancestors." ”
Shen Kang smiled and replied, "Yes, how can anyone forget the birthday of their ancestors." ”
Yang Chengli continued: "This day coincides with the birthday of Emperor Zhenwu, and on the third day of March, a grand festival will be held in all Taoist temples of the Ming Dynasty. Hey? He paused and asked, "Isn't there a cloud pole view on Linglong Mountain?" It's going to be a lot of fun. ”
Shen Chang smiled and nodded: "Yes, Xuanya in the Yunji View is really a god, and many nobles have gone to him to do things." He raised his voice and asked, "Dad, shall we buy some incense and candles to worship in the temple?" ”
Shen Cheng turned his head slightly and said, "Okay, earlier my mother and I went to Guanli to beg, but now that Xiao San's illness is all cured, I have to go to repay my vow." ”
He turned back to catch the car, and said, "Although we don't have the ability to mold the golden body of the Dao Master, the incense candle can't be short." ”
"That's exactly what it is." Shen Chang praised.
Shen Cheng pondered for a while, then turned his head again, his eyes swept over Shen Kang, looked at Yang Chengli, and said with a smile: "Village Elder, there is something I want to discuss with you, you see if it is feasible, we will do it, if it is not feasible, then I will let it go." ”
Yang Chengli's face was slightly red, and he snorted: "Don't, don't call adult." Brother Shen has something to say. ”
Shen Cheng sighed and said, "Our family's land is coming back, but you also know that half of the eldest son eats the poor old man, and now Ning Niang is going to get married, and these two little ones still have to study, I'm afraid they still can't support their mothers and children." Our family can't afford to buy good land, so we want to plant a few pieces of mountainous land in the city. ”
