The suburbs of Lianhai City, Yuntai Mountains.

The mountains stretch and many tea plantations are scattered throughout the mountains.

The nearby mountain people make a living by picking tea and making tea.

In Huaguo Village, Yuntai Township, at the southernmost tip of the Yuntai Mountains, there are more than 40 villagers, and every household has its own tea garden.

The scale of tea plantations is large and small, some only have a few acres of land, and some large ones contract a few hills.

Because the location of Huaguo Village is conducive to the growth of tea trees, the cloud tea produced here is very famous in the whole Lianhai City and even the whole country.

Fame drives the tea economy of the entire Yuntai Township.

The spring of April every year is a good time to pick tea.

Every family is busy, and the small scale of the tea garden at home is in the battle, and the large tea garden needs to hire many workers to pick the tea.

The largest tea garden in Huaguo Village has three hills and a scale of hundreds of acres.

The owner of the tea garden is surnamed Hua, and the tea garden has a nice name "Huaguo Yunwu Tea House".

Around Huaguo Yunwu Tea Estate are tea plantations of other farmers in Huaguo Village, which are much smaller in scale.

In the early morning, the fog in the mountains has not yet dissipated, and the tea farmers who pick tea enter the tea garden one after another, first pull out the weeds in the tea garden, and wait for the sun to rise and the fog dissipates, and the dew on the tea trees evaporates before they can start picking tea.

In a hillside tea plantation, a middle-aged couple in their 40s are pulling weeds in their tea garden.

In the spring, the tea trees grow, and the weeds in the field also grow wildly.

In just a short period of time, the middle-aged couple pulled out a lot of weeds and cleared them to the ground, which had been piled up high.

The middle-aged woman looked up at the sun, reached out and touched the young leaves on the tea tree, the dew and moisture were almost all dry, and when the sun rose another liter, she could start picking tea.

The middle-aged man leaned over and continued to pull the weeds, his steps were a little staggering, and he didn't seem to be in good shape.

"Master, you're not well yet, go home and rest, I'll be alone here."

The middle-aged man has been suffering from a recurrent fever recently, and he has not been able to get better after taking cold medicine.

"Now the tea picking is busy, where can you be busy alone, besides, the old Li Tou next door has been thinking about the outermost row of tea trees in our hillside tea garden, now is a good time to pick tea, I am not here, he will come over to pick secretly in a while."

The middle-aged man's surname is Zhang, his name is Zhang Lishan, and he is a neighbor in the same village as Lao Li Tou, and the tea gardens of the two families are also close together.

Because of historical reasons, the row of tea trees in the middle of the two tea gardens is jointly owned by the two families, each of which is managed for one year, and this year it is the turn of Zhang Lishan's family to manage it.

Because the two families share tea trees in the middle row, they often have conflicts at the corners of their mouths, and now that it is the tea picking season, the relationship between the two families is tense again.

Zhang Lishan, a middle-aged man, looked up at the tea garden of Lao Li Tou's house next door from time to time while pulling weeds to see if anyone came.

Suddenly, a wild mouse ran out of the grass, and Zhang Lishan was startled.

"Damn, it's spring, and there are more rats."

The mouse quickly disappeared, Zhang Lishan was startled just now, and felt a fishy smell in his mouth at this time, and then spit out a mouthful of saliva, and found that the saliva was bloody.

Zhang Lishan's wife was beside him, and when she saw the color of the saliva, she asked in surprise: "What's wrong with you?" Open your mouth and let me see. ”

Zhang Lishan opened his mouth honestly.

The gums in his mouth were bleeding.

"Your tooth is bleeding, it's quite serious, do you want to go to the hospital to see it?"

Zhang Lishan spit out another mouthful of bloody saliva and shook his head, "Spring is dry and hot, I have a cold again, and it is normal for my gums to bleed, just drink more water, and go to the hospital to delay time." ”

After pouring two mouthfuls of cool boiled water, Zhang Lishan prepared to continue pulling weeds.

Suddenly, a figure in the tea garden next door shook, and Zhang Lishan immediately raised his head.

A lean old man in his 60s picks tea leaves from the row of tea trees shared by two tea plantations.

The lean old man is the neighbor Lao Litou.

Zhang Lishan, who originally felt dry and hot, immediately lost his temper, crossed the tea tree ditch, and rushed forward to reason with Lao Li Tou.

"Old Li Tou, do you want to be shameless? This year, this line of tea trees is under my family's management, and you have come to steal the leaves again! ”

Lao Li Tou did not show weakness, "Last year, this row of tea trees belonged to my family, and your wife picked one of them, and I picked another one this year, what's wrong?" ”

"You fart, my family didn't touch this row of tea trees last year."

"Your house hasn't moved? When I was picking the first tea, I found that one of the tea trees had already been picked, could it be that the ghost did it? ”

"The old eyes are dizzy, and the blood is spurting!"

"Young age, keep your mouth clean."

……

The two quarreled and quarreled, and even tore it with their hands.

Zhang Lishan's wife felt that something was wrong and was ready to go up and pull the rack.

Before he could get forward, he found that Zhang Lishan was pushed by Lao Li Tou and rolled down the slope of the tea garden for a few meters, and was finally blocked by a tea tree, but the person was lying motionless on the ground.

Lao Li Tou panicked when he saw this, and Zhang Lishan's wife was even more panicked, and hurriedly ran downhill to check.

I saw Zhang Lishan lying crookedly next to the tea tree, bleeding from his mouth and nose, and he only had air out but no air intake.
