Two hundred and nine chapters
This old brother didn't answer when he heard Wang Qiu finish talking seriously, but seemed to question it for a while, he looked at us a few more times and then said, "What? Are you from another village? ”
"No, no, we're from the village, it's just the first time we've come here," Xiongzi picked up the words, and after he had said that, he quickly handed him the fire.
The old brother took the fire and didn't open the mask, as if he didn't want us to see his face clearly, just buckled a small hole in the mask with his hand, and then put the cigarette in his mouth and lit it skillfully and smoked, the old brother smoked carefully, then picked up the cigarette butt and looked at it carefully and said: "I haven't smoked this kind of cigarette, but this smooth and delicate feeling shouldn't be cheap, right?" ”
"Ouch, old man! This cigarette is what we have worked hard to learn and save money for, don't look at this cigarette and think that we are rich, we are really poor students! ”
Wang Qiu couldn't wait to pretend to be bitter when he heard this, and he should think that the purpose of his brother saying this was that he was ready to blackmail us.
"What are you talking about? Where does the truth come from to collect money when you cross a river? Everyone is a village, and they should help each other! Sit down, let's go back now and catch everyone up for dinner!" ”
After listening to it, we couldn't help but express our gratitude to the old brother compared to the thumbs up, Wang Qiu, this guy was so happy, he praised the old brother and didn't say anything, and actually asked others to send us back later, and it was really a loss for his broken mouth to see the wind and make the rudder speak well, and even the back road was solved, this old brother not only promised to send us across the river again but also promised to send us another ride on the road for fear of us getting lost, in Wang Qiu's words, this old brother is really no problem, The simple cultivation of folk customs can be said to be vividly displayed in him.
Rowing all the way forward, we all started to smoke and didn't speak again, Hanako looked at the reflection of everyone in the water and suddenly asked the elder brother: "Brother, the water here is so clear, there should be no fish, should you usually fish in other places?" “
The elder brother was still skillfully waving the oars with both hands, and he replied without replying: "Yes, sister, there are no fish in the river under our feet, and we usually fish in another place, you can also go with me to see if you have nothing to do when you have dinner."
I looked at the surrounding circular riverbed and inevitably was very interested in the village households, this place is said to be beautiful but it is too remote and inconvenient, if you usually go out or buy things and come back, don't you have to cross the river by boat, but after rowing for a long time, I didn't see other boats appear, is it possible that everyone often does not go out and is completely self-sufficient for each family? That's kind of interesting.
The old brother finished his cigarette and did not throw it into the river or the boat casually, he deliberately paused for a while, put his hand out on the hull of the boat, extinguished the cigarette butt, and then put it in his pocket again.
This consciousness is too high, my brother's move immediately affected all of us, one by one learned to step on the cigarette butts and put them in their pockets, no wonder there is no garbage floating in this place, it turns out that everyone is an environmental protection pacesetter, this quality consciousness is completely incomparable with us, this is the real folk customs and simplicity! But then again, we are all from the same village in the end, why is there such a big difference in ideological consciousness, I am really ashamed......
When we approached the shore, we saw that a lot of villagers had gathered on the shore, and this posture should be ready to welcome our gathering, but some of these people actually held some sticks and murder weapons in their hands, and this posture looked a little bit of a hidden mystery.!
The closer I got, the more I noticed that the expressions were almost all kind, a few women and children were still smiling at us, as if to welcome a noble guest from afar, and those with sticks in their hands began to dance and wave, it turned out that they were just props prepared to welcome us.
How much we still feel a little flattered, where have you ever been treated with such courtesy, I hurriedly pulled Wang Qiu to his side and whispered softly: "When you go ashore, you have to pay attention to what you say, don't be dirty but brainy, if you say the wrong thing, we will be ashamed to treat others with courtesy!" “
Wang Qiu made an OK gesture to me with contempt, and when he turned his head, this guy couldn't help but raise his hands in front of the crowd and waved them constantly, and he really regarded himself as a hero and went home with honor.
Came to the shore, the old brother stabilized the boat, let us come down one by one, before he had time to thank him, there were children to us beautiful garlands, Hanako was happy, wearing garlands and those children began to play, several of us all nodded and thanked and then stood aside along the crowd.
I could see that the villagers in this place were really hospitable, and as soon as we stood up, they applauded us, welcomed us, and even put on a show.
The villagers began to dance around us, and even the children joined in and sang a mountain song, although we didn't understand what it meant, but it was supposed to be a kind of welcome to welcome us.
Full of joy and finally survived this flattering welcome ceremony, the old brother patted me on the shoulder and told me that he had something to go home first, he told us that if we were okay today, we would simply have a good time in the village here, the villagers are very hospitable, eat and drink, of course, also control, as long as everyone speaks politely and does not conflict.
We thanked our brother one after another, but fortunately, we handed him the last pack of cigarettes in our pockets to express our gratitude.
The old brother turned around and stopped, picked up the cigarette case, looked at it seriously, and then handed the cigarette to Xiao Hei, he suddenly became a little puzzled, looked at Xiao Hei and looked at us a few more times, and said, "I don't know how to smoke"
Before leaving, he pointed to the corner of the house in the village and said, "My family lives over there, you can come to me to drink wine and eat meat when you are free, and today you will have a good time in this village for ten days and half a month, and then you really want to leave and come to me again."
Before we could thank our brother, he walked into the village quickly, and the onlookers all dispersed while we spoke, and no one stayed in place for us to be ready to receive us.
Such a strange and decisive move made a few of us stand in place stupidly for a long time, and only Wang Qiu felt unimpressed. He saw a family eating and hurriedly walked over, and it happened that the door was also open, and Wang Qiu had already walked in briskly without knocking on it.
"Everybody's eating? Why is it so fragrant! Our brothers are hungry when they first come to the treasure land, and I don't know ......."
"Oh outsiders, come in, come in, eat together!" Before Wang Qiu could finish speaking, an elderly man in the room came over to us with a smile, and she looked at us and took Hanako in without waiting for us to reply.
"Could it be that women are not favored over men here?"
I sighed lightly and followed Hanako inside, and as soon as Hanako entered the room, she won the top honor of the top eight, and everyone's interest seemed to be all in her. All of them handed her bowls and delivered food, as if they didn't take a few of us men seriously.
This meal is actually very stuffy, except for Wang Qiu is still happy to eat, a few of us are a little indifferent and unhappy, Xiong Zi and I have no appetite because we smoke too much along the way, so we have no interest in the things at the table,.
After looking at the surrounding environment for a while, he turned his head and found that Xiao Hei's eyes had already sprinkled all over the roof, and he may have begun to pay attention to it as soon as he entered the house. In fact, the house is still a little simple, no different from the layout of most houses in our village, except for pots and pans, which are some essential furniture, but nothing unusual can be found.
From the family's speech and demeanor to Hanako, it is not difficult to find that they all like Hanako's sudden appearance, whether it is a man, a woman, an old man, or a child are extremely friendly to Hanako without hesitation, as if Hanako is their biological daughter, take care of and love, but it seems to be a little inconvenient to listen to them, except for the hostess who speaks neatly, the rest of the people are unable to speak clearly. Finally speaking, there is no order of priority, listening to this voice intermittently, it feels like they haven't spoken for too long and forgot how to communicate.
Halfway through the meal, Xiao Hei still took out cigarettes to distribute with everyone, this family looks like they should be old smokers, and they have to smoke more than half of the smoke that has not been spit out, it feels like there is no waste of all the smoke that has been collected into the lungs at a glance, even this child is so skilled and sophisticated in smoking, I don't know if this family is loose in discipline and doesn't care about it, or everyone is so free and easy, if I was so young and smoked like this, maybe I would have been beaten to death by my father, then I can still live until now, it is really more human than human and dead!
It didn't take long for Hanako to pack up the dishes and chopsticks and go into the house with the woman to clean up, and the others who stayed behind didn't seem to be really interested in us at all, and didn't say a word, as if they were staring at us a few times, and then suddenly dispersed, and they all went into the house, closed the door, and made no movement.
Wang Qiu saw that people were gone, and he raised his legs and burped us: "You say that the folk customs here are really strange, just now they are happy and now they are beginning to be indifferent, and they are all like a stammer, you say that people in this place have quirks, they all say that things gather like people in groups, and they are all a group of disabled people, so they will gather here to live together."
"You don't fart a day, you're disabled." After eating someone else's food, you have to mock others behind your back, are you doing this as a human being? ”
Xiong Ziwangqiu started his daily bickering, and when I saw that there were no outsiders in this house, I asked Xiao Hei who joked: "Brother Hei, is it true that you haven't said a word for a long time?" Let's talk about it, if you have any new discoveries, let's communicate"
