11, Crazy to Play (2)

All the way, all the way to laugh, unconsciously has come to the end of the garden, looking back, the yurt is in the center of the atom, the road of the orchard is almost five or six hundred meters, this road is straight, the fruit trees on both sides are also lined up in dragons standing neatly on both sides, although the branches are bare, there are no leaves, but the black and brown branches stand upright in the cold wind, with the wind, trembling slightly, it is the time of noon, the sun shines on the ground, the water ditch, there is even green grass, although the IQ has been dry glue, But the grass tray of heaven and earth is still glowing green, some of the residual leaves cover the place, and there are one or two wild vegetables that are green, of course, these greens are not pure green, some purple, and some grayish, but the background color is still green, in this cold winter, there is still life in the tenacious growth.

The sky is blue, there is not a trace of clouds, it is said that people's hearts have become transparent, on the distant skyline, there are towering poplar trees, there are also towering buildings, I have never felt that the sky and the earth line is so uneven, nor do I feel that the skyline connects the sky and the earth so naturally, the sun is warmer than usual, strong ultraviolet rays shine on the skin, sometimes it will be hot, people often describe the winter is cold and windy, but rarely notice this warm sunshine, although the air is dry, but fresh.

Standing on the road of the orchard, when the breeze blows, in addition to the cold feeling, you can also smell a smell of earth, that is the smell of the earth, that is the smell of nature, this smell is not like a sandstorm choking, but a kind of taste, people describe the air is colorless and odorless, the air in the factory is filled with the smell of industrial exhaust, and in this vast land, in this neat orchard, what you smell is a smell of earth, this faint smell of earth makes you feel at ease and make you more calm.

As three flowers to bloom, they are all flower girls, each with its own beauty, each with its own charm, the down jackets they wear, all kinds of colors, what remains unchanged is their youthful and charming faces, every move is so careless, but it looks so wonderful and dignified, from their faces you see innocence, from their eyes you see is crystal clear, the warm sun sprinkles on them, don't project their figures on the earth, although they just walk lightly, But the shadows cast on the ground transform various scenes.

The three young girls of the flower season talked about everything carefree, their voices were as crisp as copper bells, their words were even more innocent and romantic, between the rows of the black and brown fruit trees, their agile bodies were constantly moving, just like three flowers beating back and forth on the earth, you were in the middle of them, you would also experience the vitality and charm of the flower girls, with them, I also seemed to return to the middle school days, remembering the years that made people linger.

Yang Jiajia was still excitedly pointing to us, "Mr. Jiang, look at how many solar greenhouses there are, it's as warm as summer, all kinds of vegetables are green, many guests go to these sheds to pick vegetables, and then the picked vegetables come back to be processed into green vegetables eaten with shabu mutton, I don't recognize many of the varieties inside, especially one of them, it is a cherry tomato, each spider is hung on the roof of the greenhouse, a bunch of tomatoes are like grapes, really beautiful, From a distance, it looks like a ball of fire, but when you look at it, it's very fresh. ”

Wang Wenli is not to be outdone, "one of them said that they said it was called miniature cucumbers, each cucumber is only more than an inch long, covered with thorns, and there is a bright cucumber flower in front of the cucumber, that kind of cucumber, they say that it is not used for reality, but for making pickles, my grandmother originally said that when buying cucumbers, you should buy the kind of top flower with thorns, it turns out that I don't know what kind of cucumber with thorns on behalf of the thorns." ”

Dong Chunjiao was moved by what the two of them said, and after looking at me, she asked for my opinion and said, "Teacher Jiang, we just have to have a meal anyway, and we have already come here, why don't we also go to the solar greenhouse to have a look, I have never been to this kind of solar greenhouse, Mr. Jiang, have you ever been?" ”

I replied to them with a smile, "My family also lives in the city, to say that the gardens of Suzhou, small bridges and flowing water, rockeries and lakes, and some ancient gardens, I have seen a lot, and I have seen a lot of flowers in the garden, including many flowers, I can call their names, but I really rarely go to these production greenhouses, in my memory is to go to the suburbs of Suzhou to pick strawberries, Suzhou greenhouses are much simpler than the greenhouses here, the sun shines in the greenhouses in winter, even if there is wind, The temperature will also be twenty or thirty degrees, like today's good weather, the temperature in the greenhouse is no different from summer, at that time I followed my grandmother to pick strawberries, in winter strawberries grow lush in the greenhouse, flowers and fruits exist at the same time, every day there are ripe strawberries, the shape of strawberries is particularly beautiful, like a small fist, some are like a carrot, my favorite is so many seeds on strawberries, red strawberries and green leaves together, really unimaginable beauty. This is the first time I've been to this kind of vegetable shed. ”

Saying this, we have gone to the side of the solar greenhouse, the service staff came to give us a plastic basket in the morning, the vegetables that have been picked are put in this plastic basket, we are holding a plastic basket alone, the service staff actively introduces all kinds of vegetables, if it is not for their introduction, we really don't know anyone.

The shed we entered was dedicated to the production of eggplant, and the eggplant in the barrel had grown to nearly a meter high, and each branch was dripping with a purr, and it was full of eggplant, which was not the round eggplant we usually see, but a long eggplant like a cucumber, and the shoes were dark purple, and under the reflection of the sun, it was as round as a piece of purple jade, because the eggplant could not be eaten with the mutton shabu, and several of us quickly changed to a solar greenhouse.

The sight of entering the new solar greenhouse immediately stunned us. All the vegetables in this greenhouse are not planted on the ground, but several layers of iron shelves on each layer is a layer of vegetables, all the vegetables are soaked in water, the service staff said that this is lettuce, we took a closer look, it is really the kind of lettuce eaten at home, transparent glassware, with water as the dividing line, the top of the water is the green lettuce, the bottom of the mouth is the root system of the white flowers sent out by the lettuce, from a distance, the green and white are in the water contrast is so distinct, hydroponic vegetables have only been learned in nature textbooks, It was the first time that I had seen vegetables grown with only water, and I and the three young girls became students of the waitress, and the waiter told us how to raise seedlings and grow lettuce.

Where is this a greenhouse where farmers produce vegetables? It is completely a popular science textbook of pediatrics, people are picking vegetables at the same time, they see these most advanced and modern cultivation methods, and they can't help but marvel at the development of science and technology, which is really changing with each passing day. I found two friends and shouted, no one reminded us to take off our down jackets, and we wore down jackets into this kind of greenhouse, just to sweat, and the temperature here is so high, as long as we make every move, we will sweat profusely.

At this time, the staff reminded us to take off our coats quickly, otherwise the temperature difference between the shed and the outside of the shed can easily cause a cold. Although all this is very novel, the three flower girls also played beautifully, not only eating, but also increasing their knowledge, and having a further understanding of these vegetables, if there is time, it must be very reassuring to pick some of each vegetable and eat it.

At the insistence of the waiter, we came to the third solar greenhouse, this greenhouse is completely planted with cherry tomatoes, and Yang Jiajia described the same, this kind of tomatoes and ordinary tomatoes are completely different, each tomato is hung on the roof of the greenhouse, from a distance, the red tomatoes are like a torch, in the sunlight of the sun looks extremely bright, walk in to see, it is really a huge inflorescence of tomatoes, each fruit is fresh and tender, If no one tells you it's a cherry tomato, you think it's a grape.

The staff picked a few tomatoes on the plants around him and put them at our hands, and then he put the tomatoes directly in his mouth, and said while eating, the tomatoes here are showered with water every day, I don't know how many times I have written, the temperature here is very good, especially the humidity is very high, there will be no dust falling on the fruit, so you can rest assured that you can eat it boldly, but I still think it should be washed and eaten again, the three flowering girls have been unable to resist the temptation, put the tomatoes in their mouths, Dong Chunjiao said while eating, it was really the taste of tomatoes.

In this bare and cold orchard, these solar greenhouses are full of spring, all the vegetables are green, all the fruits are fresh and tender, all kinds of cultivation methods have, both traditional planting methods, there are hydroponic vegetables, such a high scientific and technological content, the cost of vegetables produced is very low, because the harvest cycle is short, and can be fully utilized, each square meter can be arranged with three layers of 4 layers of hydroponic box, the yield per unit area is quite high, so the cost is very low.

The service staff finally took us to a cold shed, this shed is different from the solar greenhouse, that is, the night is no longer covered with quilts, the temperature difference between here and the outdoors is relatively smaller, the service staff instructed us to put on a coat, and then, visit the vegetables in the cold shed, the main vegetables produced in this shed are some leafy vegetables and root vegetables, a large area of celery and rape, spinach interspersed in the shed, on the edge of the shed, the big white radish grows thick and strong, Dong Chunjiao really can't stand the temptation, Stretched out his hand and plucked a large radish, this radish was nearly a foot long, and the thickness was more than 10 centimeters, and the white radish and the green diced radish, including the soil on the white radish, all looked so vivid. After the staff helped to wash the soil clean, the radish turned out to be nearly 10 catties, so I had to take it back and eat it with the mutton shabu.

Finally, the sweat of the whole body has fallen, the transition of the cold shed has also completed its historical mission, the four of us walked back along the road on the east side, and walked one more bend than when we came, it is estimated that it is nearly 1 kilometer, the noon time has passed noon, the time in the solar greenhouse, unconsciously passed quickly, it has been an hour, this time if you go back to the yurt to sit down and eat, the gobbling of these girls is conceivable

I also really felt hungry, and I walked for so long to get here, and was taken around by the waiter in the solar greenhouse several times, plus there was so much sweat in the solar greenhouse, and the hunger was really a little bit close, so we didn't appreciate the blue sky and the changing skyline, but wanted to hurry back to the yurt and start eating the fresh and tender mutton shabu.

It took more than ten minutes, we have walked to the yurt, the service staff is very intimate, I saw us coming from the other end of the mainland, he has lit the hot pot in advance, each of us has his own miniature small hot pot, 4 hot pot steaming has already raised the temperature of the yurt, after entering the house in the bathroom of the yurt, each of us washed our hands, Dong Chunjiao handed over the big radish to the waiter, and asked the chef to help process.

The four of us sat around the table and started eating.

The waiter said, "Guests, you are welcome to dine here, our mutton here is supplied by Inner Mongolia Siziwang Banner, the sunset is on the grassland, every day to walk more than ten kilometers, some people describe the sheep on the grassland of the four-character banner is like this, they eat Chinese herbal medicine, drink mineral water, walk the green road, breathe the freshest air, Therefore, what they pulled down was not sheep dung eggs, but Liuwei Dihuang pills, so the mutton was also very tender, different parts had different tastes, and different parts also had different ways to eat. ”

Dong Chunjiao was already hungry, where to wait for the waiter's introduction one by one, the hot pot was boiling, the heat was already permeating the yurt, Dong Chunjiao was holding a bowl of condiments, and she didn't care about adding any accessories, but added a chopstick meat and put it in the hot pot, and it matured quickly, she put this piece of mutton in the condiment bowl and dipped it, and then sent it into her mouth, the hot mutton scalded her straight away, but she still devoured it.

I hurriedly persuaded her, "Don't worry, eat slowly, otherwise you will be in trouble if your mouth is hot." There are coriander and chives, as well as sauce tofu and leek flowers, everyone put a little more according to their own taste, eat shabu mutton to pay attention to put all kinds of condiments, and then taste slowly, there are so many fresh vegetables on the road, you can also eat together. ”

Yang Jiajia is like a master, distributing these accessories to everyone little by little, and then said to me, "Teacher Jiang, you hurry up and eat, don't worry about a few of us, since I ate in the morning, it is almost 1 o'clock now, I walked such a big circle just now, I must be hungry, you hurry up and eat." ”

After I ate a few bites of food, in order to prevent these children from competing with me to settle the bill, I went to the bathroom under the pretext of going to the bathroom, called the waiter outside Mongolia, gave her a show, and told her to get the invoice back to me, and then I returned to the cute bag and slowly tasted this delicious food.

Shabu mutton is one of Beijing's characteristic delicacies, since during the military training, in Changping bungalow to eat a shabu shabu, this is the second time I eat shabu mutton, these mutton are claimed to be from Inner Mongolia, in general the quality is particularly good, after the hot pot shabu, the mutton to the mouth on the melt, plus the taste of various condiments, it is really fragrant to eat, although it is a delicious thing, do not dare to let go of eating, this kind of highly nutritious things eat too many people will definitely get fat, The most taboo thing for girls at my age is to gain weight, so after eating a few bites of mutton, they can satisfy their cravings, and then start to prepare a lot of shabu-shabu vegetables, as well as shiitake mushrooms, chicken leg mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, etc.

The combat effectiveness of these girls is still a little bit, it didn't take a long time, a few of them were tornailed, and they had already eaten a few pots of meat and several vegetable fungi on the table, because the vegetables were calculated according to the position, and there was no limit to the amount, so they asked for a few plates of vegetables, and at this time the radishes we picked back were also cut into slices and served. Because this radish is very large, the chefs have done careful processing, radish cherry made a dipping pickle, half of the radish itself is cut into radish slices, half rubbed into shredded radish, shredded radish with pepper oil mixed into a plate of cold vegetables, eating is also particularly refreshing.

Along with these dishes, there are two staple foods, one is their homemade baked cakes, which are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, which is the characteristic of this kind of baked cakes, and it is said that these baked cakes are added with mahjong, so they also have a unique taste to eat. In addition to the baked cakes, there are also several hand-rolled noodles, and in addition to the white noodles that we usually eat, there are also green and yellow hand-rolled noodles, which are said to be noodles made with vegetable juice, and the colors are the natural colors of vegetables, and the taste is particularly good. There are many places where mutton is served in Beijing, and each place has its own recipe, but it is very cheap and convenient to eat, so you don't need to worry about ordering food.

When I was almost done, Yang Jiajia came back from outside and said to me, "Teacher Jiang, why did you settle the account without saying a word, we come to eat you every time we come out for dinner, how can you have so much money as a student?" Originally, it was planned that I would come to treat me this time, but you took the lead again. ”

I didn't argue with him, but joked, "Actually, we all have the same identity, all of us are students, but you are high school students, junior high school students and I am college students, but I am richer than you, because I recently published two poetry books and got a lot of manuscript fees, I am already a little rich now, what is a meal?" From another point of view, I am a teacher, you are a student, I should invite you, if you spend money, in fact, your parents are inviting me, and the meaning of our meeting will be lost. ”

Dong Chunjiao pursed her lips and said, "Anyway, a few of us can't say that you, you are a teacher, and you can talk and think, we as students will always be poor in your place, since everyone is a student, then don't fight to pay for meals in the future, we should set up a rule in the future, everyone implements the AA system, everyone shares it equally, won't this problem be solved?" ”

I smiled and said to everyone, "Dong Chunjiao's method is good, the next time we have another dinner, we will implement the AA system, this time forget it, I have already bought the list, and I have the invoice." ”

Wang Wenli also argued, "When I go back, my parents should talk about me again, this time I eat again, with your two big sisters and Teacher Jiang, I will always be the one who rubs rice, and my parents complain about me every time." ”

I said to her, "After a while, we will go to the amusement park to play, and I will not fight with you, from this time on, we will implement the AA system, one person will go to the queue to buy tickets, and everyone will spend their own money to buy their own tickets, okay?" ”

Dong Chunjiao was the first to jump out and object, "Since you have already said it, from next time, Teacher Jiang has already come out before the meal, this party is planned by me and Teacher Jiang, I will go to the amusement park to play in a while, I will pay for the ticket alone, no one should fight with me, let's leave it this time." ”

Yang Jiajia also jumped out, "Dong Chunjiao, you are too domineering, although this meal is proposed by you, all the things are done by me, choose the address, choose the restaurant to order, I am the only one, if you want to say that it is not your turn to treat, since the teacher Qian Jiang of the restaurant has paid the bill, then this time I went to the amusement park to play, and I should be responsible for the ticket money, I think you should not be so domineering, just do what I say." ”

It's endless to argue like this, so I hurriedly came out to play a round, "Okay, don't fight between the two of you, don't rob, Dong Chunjiao will be responsible for buying tickets, and then everyone will return the ticket money to Dong Chunjiao, starting from the amusement park, let's implement the AA system, and that's it." ”

Seeing that everyone had eaten almost, I glanced at everyone with my eyes, "If we are full, we will go to the playground, how about it?" ”

Yang Jiajia didn't say anything, but took out her mobile phone and called a taxi through the software. Yang Jiajia said to us, "Let's all sit here and drink some water, and the taxi will be there in two minutes." ”
