Chapter 105: Peanuts are ripe
♂
"By the way, Grandma, there was a heavy rain last night, and the forest is full of new mushrooms this morning." Shallow thought of the mushrooms in the mountains, so she raised her head and muttered.
"Really!"
"Hmm!"
"Sleep, when I'm done feeding the rabbits, let's go to the mountains to pick some mushrooms."
"Hmm!"
Zhang Shanxian is also an old lady who likes to pick mushrooms, especially in the early morning after the rain, strolling in the forest, smelling the fresh air, and the unique smell of newborn mushrooms, which is a different feeling.
She was carrying an iron bucket full of rabbit feed that had just been mixed. The rabbits had eaten the rabbit feed clean last night, and at this time, they were hungry on an empty stomach.
When they saw the old lady Zhang Shanxian coming over with an iron bucket, they immediately pricked up their long ears, put their mouths on the bowl and sniffed continuously, waiting for the arrival of food.
These rabbits are all long-haired rabbits, but the weather is hot these days, so Zhang Shanxian has cut their hair. The originally beautiful little rabbit, after being sheared, looked a little funny naked.
They're a lot cooler, though.
Long-haired rabbits like this will have a hard time in the summer without careful care.
Zhang Shanxian carried a long iron spoon and divided it evenly among the rabbits one by one, and after a while, he finished feeding the rabbits.
The morning was long, the sun was hot, and I knew the sound. Lying on the table and falling asleep quietly, a cyan caterpillar fell to the ground with a snap on the walnut tree. It hunched over and looked anxiously from side to side, then hurriedly climbed onto a leaf and hid on it.
After feeding the rabbits, Mrs. Zhang Shanxian took out a few snakeskin bags and a bamboo basket from a corner of the rabbit cage, and then stood under the walnut tree unhurriedly and shouted "Shallow, go, go to the woods with grandma to pick mushrooms." ”
"Hmm!" Asa said yes and opened his eyes.
Then, she stood up, took the bamboo basket from her grandmother's hand, and then followed her grandmother out of the house.
Outside the nursing home, the old people are sitting under the big tree with a pu fan to enjoy the shade, they sit leisurely in the place where they often stay, and then chat with each other.
"What are you doing with your basket?" Aunt Lin stood by the pool and washed her clothes and asked Zhang Shanxian, her eyes fell on Qianqian's body, full of kindness.
"Go to the woods and pick some mushrooms and come back!"
"It rained so hard last night, and it should be everywhere in the forest today."
"Hmm!"
"It's good to have a granddaughter, you can have a companion wherever you go!"
"That's it!" The old lady Zhang Shanxian smiled slightly, and her heart was full of joy. After she said that, she accidentally caught a glimpse of Aunt Lin's basin with a man's clothes, so she asked, "Is this the dean's clothes?" ”
"yes, his clothes have been piled up for a few days, I'm fine now, wash him."
"Hmmm! Dean's good fortune! Zhang Shanxian smiled heartily and continued to ask with concern, "What did the sons say about the two of us?" ”
"No, they don't agree, they resolutely disagree, what is so big
When I'm old, I still want to get married and ruin my ......"
"What age is this, as long as the two of us are willing."
"No, the children don't agree, just drag it out for the time being!"
"Alas!" Mrs. Zhang Shanxian shook her head and said impatiently, "Let's go, let's talk when we come back!" ”
"Okay, let's go!"
"Hmm!"
Mrs. Zhang Shanxian continued to greet the other old people, and then walked out of the nursing home with a shallow light.
Both went downhill to a locust tree, where the dean stood alone smoking a cigarette.
"Why are you going, auntie?" The dean smiled, smoking a cigarette in his mouth.
"Go to the mountains and pick mushrooms."
"Shallow, I haven't seen you for a few days, you've lost weight?" The dean shifted the target to Asa again.
smiled shyly and didn't speak.
Zhang Shanxian saw it and explained, "My granddaughter, she rarely speaks except for laughing. ”
"How good is that, shy girl."
When the dean said this, his shallow face turned white for a while, and he became more and more embarrassed.
"Don't talk about it, we have to get out of here."
"Okay, let's go!"
Mrs. Zhang Shanxian waved her hand, with a smile on her face, and continued to walk forward with brisk steps.
"Grandma, every time I go out, I have to say hello to people one by one, so tired!" Qianqian felt that such interpersonal contacts were too complicated and troublesome.
"Of course, we have to say hello to people, and they talk to each other with a smile, and they are embarrassed to turn their faces and ignore them, which is the top hat we should have."
"Oh, I still think it's troublesome, I think, when you meet someone, say hello, don't talk if you don't want to."
"Childish!"
Along the way, Mrs. Zhang Shanxian kept stopping to talk to people, which itself stemmed from her good popularity. No way, she has a good character and good popularity, and everyone has to chat with her for a long time when they see her.
Shallow and impatient to follow his grandmother's side, becoming more and more restrained.
The two people continued to walk, then passed through the second gate, went around to the back of the factory, and entered the woods of the factory, where they picked up for a while, and then passed through a hole in the factory wall and entered the endless mountains.
Patches of peanuts are planted deep in the mountains, and it is the peanut picking season. Some farmers at the bottom of the hill are squatting and sweating peanuts. The farmer's feet were covered with dirt, and they were used to the days when their faces were facing the land with their backs to the sky.
"Auntie, why are you going?" Farmer Ah Liang wiped the sweat on his face and asked Zhang Shanxian.
"Go ahead, my family also took their children to pick mushrooms in the forest, and it rained heavily last night, and the mushrooms in the forest were flooded."
"Hmmm! Let's not talk about pulling peanuts! ”
"Auntie, come, get some to eat on the way!" Ah Liang took some freshly prepared peanuts from the ground and forcibly put them into Zhang Shanxian's basket.
"Hey, this kid, every time you see me, you're so sincere. The aunt didn't give anything, but ate the family's peanuts every year. ”
"Yes, eat a flower
What is life? Ah Liang smiled and continued to bend down and pluck peanuts.
"Keep busy, kid!"
"Well, go ahead, auntie." Ah Liang raised his head, looked at her and smiled softly, his face full of smiles.
"Grandma, did the peanuts come down so early?"
"yes!"
As the two of them spoke, a raven hovered over their heads, refusing to leave.
"Grandma, why does the crow keep hovering over our heads?" Looking at the crow above his head in confusion, his heart was full of curiosity.
"It wants to build a nest on its head!"
"Huh?" There is such a strange statement in the world, and I believe my grandmother's words with suspicion.
Along the way, she kept thinking about her grandmother's words, and she never understood why the crow wanted to build a nest on her head.
