Chapter 201: A whole chapter of chit-chat
Yan Jibai shook his head on the side and sighed: "I'm not a child anymore, why do I think about how to play every day!" ”
Lu Yu is also a junior of Yan Jibai, although Yan Jibai is not talking about him, he also feels slightly embarrassed. Lu Yu scratched his head and said, "Otherwise, you can read at home." ”
"Don't, read again in the evening." After speaking, Yan Xiding went out without looking back.
Lu Yu also went out, the two left Yan's house, and after walking for a while, Lu Yu suddenly said, "Xiding, you should study at home." ”
"Brother Da Yu, why are you too long-winded."
Lu Yu said, "Is there one? But even if we're verbose, it's for your own good. ”
Yan Xiding showed a very sneering expression and said, "Is reading just for my good?" Reading can't make people have food. ”
Lu Yu suddenly felt that Yan Xi must be a little strange today, he seemed to have grown up, and he seemed to be more ignorant. Lu Yu didn't know how to persuade him, thought about it, and said, "It's better to read than not to read." ”
"What's so good? My dad was the most annoying, always telling me to read and read. Yan Xi was angry, his face was unconvinced, and he said: "My father has read so many books, what's the use?" It's not that I haven't even gained fame. ”
Lu Yu stopped, he felt that some of the thoughts in Yan Xiding's mind were problematic. Lu Yu had to say a few words about him.
Seeing that Lu Yu was not leaving, Yan Xiding also realized that what he just said was a little inappropriate, and he said again: "I know that studying is to be an official, but I don't want to be an official, so it doesn't matter if I read or not." ”
Yan Xiding's words were wrong, but Lu Yu couldn't tell what he was wrong, and he didn't know how to refute it for a while.
Yan Xiding said again: "My father reads a lot and understands a lot, but I don't think he is great at all. ”
Lu Yu said: "I think he is very powerful. ”
"What's wrong? A few years ago, there was a lot of chaos, if it wasn't for Brother Da Yu and you taking care of us, our whole family might have either starved to death or been killed, where would we still be able to live to this day. Anyway, I don't think my dad is good at all compared to you. ”
Lu Yu shook his head and said with a serious face: "Xiding, it's wrong for you to think so. ”
"What's wrong? Originally, if it weren't for Brother Da Yu's help, our family might have been gone a long time ago. Yan Xiding looked unhappy.
Lu Yu shook his head and said, "I'm not talking about this, I'm saying, your father is also very powerful, he is no worse than anyone else." ”
"Hehe, I don't believe that."
"You'll know later, your dad is also amazing."
Yan Xiding was reluctant to discuss his father, and said impatiently: "Brother Da Yu, you can't learn to be verbose, that's not interesting at all." ”
"Hey." Lu Yu shook his head and didn't say anything more.
Lao Gao's sister is about the same age as Lu Yu, but her child is already in her teens, and she has been married for fourteen or fifteen years. may be because Lao Gao's sister got married early, and because Lu Yu is getting younger and younger, so when the two of them stand together, they look like two generations.
Lao Gao didn't go home today, and he asked Lu Yu if he would go back.
Lu Yu said: "I have to go back, and there is no one else in my family." ”
Lao Gao said: "Da Yu, don't go back, let's go together tomorrow." Aren't your mother-in-law helping to take care of those sheep? ”
"Forget it, it's troublesome." Of the five ewes of Lu Yu's family, three of them are already pregnant with lambs, and if he can't see the sheep all day, he is a little worried.
Yan Xiding said on the side: "Brother Da Yu wants to go back because my family has no place to live." ”
Sister Gao said: "Then live in my house and squeeze with my brother." ”
Lu Yu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, I'd better go back." He didn't even want to sleep with Yanxi for one night, let alone Lao Gao.
Lao Gao smiled and said, "Da Yu, you still dislike me, I don't want to squeeze with you." He said again: "Da Yu, you have fast legs, come again tomorrow and help me bring something over." ”
"Okay, what do I want to bring you?" Lu Yu didn't see Yan Xi'an today, so he just had an excuse to come back tomorrow.
"Let's get some meat, let's go out early today, I forgot to bring it."
Lu Yu nodded in agreement.
Leaving Lao Gao's sister's house, Lu Yu didn't go back with Yan Xiding, and returned directly to Yangshan Village. After the separation, Lu Yu suddenly thought of one thing and forgot to ask Xi Ding: has his sister started teaching them to practice kitchen knife formulas.
The last time he hunted, it was half a month ago, and Lu Yu thought that Lao Gao's family might not have much meat, so he went to the mountain and got a wild goat back.
The wild goat was divided into four parts, one was for the Yan family, one was for Lao Gao's sister's family, one was given to Fang Darong, and the remaining one was for Lu Ming and them. Ah Li is pregnant, and she needs nutrition even more.
The mutton prepared for Fang Darong and Lu Ming was sent out by Lu Yu before dark, and the other two will be sent tomorrow. After dividing the meat, there were still a lot of haggis left in the water, and Lu Yu planned to eat them at night.
There were a lot of things, and one person couldn't finish them, so Lu Yu went to call Qi Xiang and Fang Daping again. When Fang Daping came, he also brought a large pot of self-brewed wine.
The lamb liver and sheep heart are stir-fried, the lamb kidneys are slid with hot oil, scalded with boiling water, and finally fried in the pot. Sheep intestines and tripe or something were thrown into the pot to boil, boiled for a long, long time, and threw in a few small green vegetables.
Several dishes are quite rough, but the taste is still good.
Qi Xiang said to Lu Yu that his mother-in-law seems to have gotten better recently, she is no longer noisy and scolding, and even speaks a lot less.
Fang Daping said that Qi Xiang's daughter-in-law was originally stimulated and was so sad and sad that she would become like this, and she would come back sooner or later.
Lu Yu also said: "The village chief is right, your daughter-in-law will definitely be fine." ”
"I hope it's okay, she's been like this for almost a year." Qi Xiang has to work and take care of his crazy daughter-in-law, and his life is not easy.
Fang Daping asked Lu Yu: "Da Yu, don't you know how to see a doctor, you help Lao Qi and his daughter-in-law take a look, see if she bumped into something dirty?" ”
"That's right, Da Yu, you can help me take a look."
Lu Yu shook his head and said, "I've seen it, it's nothing dirty, it's just that it's too sad and hasn't eased up." ”
Qi Xiang sighed: "Alas, it's been more than a year, I really don't know when I can recover?" ”
"Don't worry, it's going to get better." I can't say why, Lu Yu just thinks that Qi Xiang's daughter-in-law will be fine.
"Hey, Da Yu said so, then I believe it." Qi Xiang smiled and drank another glass of wine.
Lu Yu poured wine for the two of them, and said with a smile: "Lao Qi, you are still young, when your daughter-in-law is well, you can have another baby yourself." ”
"They all say that I am 'Lao Qi', why am I still alive?" Qi Xiang drank the wine in the cup again, and said with a smile: "Da Yu, you are not honest, and you will also make fun of people." ”
"I'm not joking with you, I'm serious." Lu Yu still couldn't help but have a "improper" smile on his face.
Fang Daping also said: "What Da Yu said is right, Lao Qi, you can't have no children and no daughters, just live like this." ”
"Ugh." Qi Xiang shook his head and sighed: "I don't want to have another life, I just hope that my crazy mother-in-law can get better, and when the time comes, I will pick up those children who don't have parents and adopt him one by two." Speaking of this, Qi Xiang thought of something, and asked Lu Yu again: "By the way, it turns out that the group of children in the town have been taken away by the one surnamed Qin?" How are they doing now? ”
Lu Yu said: "It's okay, there is food and drink." ”
"That's good, that's good." Qi Xiang nodded and said: "As long as the children are doing well, I am still worried about them, sometimes I dream that the children are not doing well, and after waking up, my heart is still old." ”
"It's been a good time, I've been to see it a few times."
Fang Daping said: "If you want me to see, when Lao Qi and your daughter-in-law are ready, if you still have the heart, go with Lu Yu to have a look, and if you can get it, you will get one back." Even if the Qin Gang Leader was willing to take care of them, it was a group of ten or twenty children, and they couldn't take care of them carefully. ”
"This is also, it's not that we don't believe in the Qin gang leader, or that there are too many children, they are a group of men, and they can't take care of them carefully." Qi Xiang wanted to drink, so he drank the wine in the cup in another sip.
After drinking, Qi Xiang said: "Speaking of which, it still falls on my mother-in-law, if she is not good, I don't dare to take the child home." ”
A few stir-fried dishes were a little cold, Lu Yu went back to the pot to heat it up, and the pot of haggis soup was still steaming.
After heating the dishes and coming back, Lu Yu asked Fang Daping: "Village chief, do you know our county seat, when will the new county order come down?" ”
Fang Daping shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." He smiled bitterly again and continued: "Da Yu, don't call me the village chief, I am no longer worthy of being the village chief." ”
Qi Xiang was upright, and he said in a loud voice: "Lao Fang, what you did last time was a bit unauthentic, but you are still good, we all know it." ”
Fang Daping took a sip of wine and shook his head.
"We're not patting you on the back, Lao Fang, you are a good person, and you are willing to do things for the village. If I choose the village chief again, I will be the first to choose you. ”
"Forget it, I can't do it. If it's really a big choice, I'll choose Da Yu. ”
Lu Yu hurriedly said: "I can't say this, I can't be the village chief, and I'm not a piece of material to be an official." ”
Qi Xiang said: "Da Yu has the ability, but I also think he is not suitable to be an official, he has a little less momentum, even if what he says makes sense, no one may listen." Lu Yu thought that Qi Xiang was right.
Fang Daping said: "Alas, in fact, our village doesn't need a village chief or a village head, every time there is a big event, there is a big feather on top." There are also those old people who worry about leading the small things, and I can't do anything. ”
Qi Xiang said: "Hehe, in fact, there is no benefit to what this village chief has done, and now there is no 'chief' in the county and town, and no one knows what you have done." ”
Fang Daping nodded, and suddenly said, "You say, if this is a new county order, and it has the same virtue as the previous Lin Si, then what should I do?" After speaking, he and Qi Xiang both turned their heads to look at Lu Yu.
