Chapter 168: Three Dragons Play in the Water

The ribs were marinated for about an hour, and Niu began to ask her grandmother to make a fire to burn the ribs.

Aunt Weaving Grass, I haven't made clothes all morning today, and I'm just busy with chestnut roasted pork ribs.

Grandma lit a fire here, and Aunt Weaving Grass prepared ginger, onions and garlic here, "Auntie, put oil when the pot is hot for a while, put ginger when the oil is hot, and burn some green onions before pouring the ribs!" ”

This is one of the few times that after Niu came to ancient times, she wanted to point fingers when cooking.

"Aunt, when you fry the pork ribs for a while, you must copy them until they become a little yellow!" Niu looked at the ribs in a big copper basin, maybe she had to fry them for a while!

"Got it, Niu'er, you stand aside, be careful that it will blow up, but it's not good." Aunt Weaving Grass dug the lard into the pot, while telling Niu'er to stay away, for fear that the oil would fry Niu'er.

Fortunately, it was burned in advance, a large pot of pork ribs, and the aunt who weaved the grass fried for a long time before she got the effect that the girl wanted.

The girl saw that it was almost over, so she asked Aunt Weaving to add water and put chestnuts and salt to stew.

The ribs stewed for a while, and Honghui and Hongtao came over to prepare for dinner. Grandma and Aunt Weaving didn't let them cook, and the two of them made lunch by themselves.

Let this Honghui and Hongtao go back to the old mansion to do things.

Sure enough, the great-grandfather didn't come back for dinner at noon, and the grandmother and the aunt of the grass weaver kept a large portion of everything that was cooked, especially the chestnut roasted pork ribs.

During the meal, Grandma and Aunt Weaving both asked, "Where did Niu'er pick up this thing, it's so delicious." Ming'er, take me and your aunt to pick up some again. ”

"Good! There's a lot more in this mountain! "You know, as long as everyone eats it, they will like it. This time, I don't have to worry about no one to pick up chestnuts with me.

Niu thought that the great-grandfather and they would not come back until it was dark, but she didn't expect that just after a while, the great-grandfather and they would come back.

When Grandma and Aunt Weaving saw that their great-grandfather had returned, they hurried to hot the meal.

It's strange that according to the speed at which the great-grandfathers dug ginseng, this ginseng was not dug so quickly!

"Is this what Niu'er picked up yesterday?" When Zengzu ate his first bite of chestnut, he couldn't help but look up and ask.

"yes. Ancestor, this is what Niu'er picked up yesterday, it's delicious. I discussed it with my mother, and waited until the well was dug. We'll go into the mountains with you and pick up some more. "When Aunt Weavinggrass was just about to go out, she heard her great-grandfather ask this question and replied.

"Well, it tastes really good, I don't know if I can keep it. If you can keep it, it's not bad to pick up more and come back for the winter! While eating, the ancestor thought about preparing food for the winter.

"Ancestor, just bury them in the sand." Niu ran into the hall and said to the ancestor at this time.

Be prepared! In this way, when you want to eat, you can eat it at any time.

"Well, if you can keep it, you can check it back more, so that you can eat more in winter." As soon as the great-grandfather heard that the girl said that he could keep it, then prepare more!

Niu will only know why the great-grandfather came back so early.

It turned out that the Zhang brothers who dug the well said. Come over today, and prepare for digging a well tomorrow!

When the Zhang brothers came over, they brought a stack of drawings.

After looking at it, the great-grandfather called the girl over.

"Niu'er, look at it, which one you like here, we want whichever one you want." Great-grandfather directly let Niu call the shots.

Niu looked at it, and it turned out to be a drawing of the edge of the well, "Great-grandfather, are these all carved from a whole stone?" ”

Niu looked at the beautifully carved edge of the well and asked her great-grandfather.

"Hmm. It's all carved out of a single stone. Great-grandfather looked at the drawings in Niu's hand and replied.

Oh my God, what a big rock on the edge of such a big well!

This well is not just a wellhead. It is connected with the wellhead with the wellside well, there are eight trigram shapes, there are circles, hexagonal and pentagonal shapes, and each wellhead and the edge of the well are carved with exquisite patterns.

Niu chose two gossip-shaped wells and put them in two corner houses.

As for. The well in the middle that hasn't been dug yet, Niu didn't choose. If you want to choose, you have to wait until the well is dug.

However, Niu Zhi saw a few drawings of fountains in a pile of drawings.

There are lion heads, dragon heads, and carps, and each figure is carved differently. There is one, there are two, there are three, and many more.

The only thing Niu likes is the statue of the three dragons playing in the water. It's a pity that I dug a well, not a fountain.

Otherwise, it's not bad to have a big fountain in such a big yard.

Great-grandfathers are preparing to dig a well, and Niu can't help, seeing that it's still early, this is going to the mountains again, and the excuse is to dig ginger.

After Niu went to the mountains, she went to the top of Daqing Mountain to step on the snow lotus. It wasn't until it was almost dark that he went down the mountain directly.

The next day, Niu didn't get up so early again, and slept until her grandmother came to call.

It's okay not to have to get up early, it's good to be able to rely on it in the bed. The large bed for one person also slept comfortably.

Since she didn't have to sleep with Aunt Weaving, Wenxuan, and Ya'er, Niu started rolling in bed again, often sleeping on this end at night and running to that end early the next morning. Sometimes, it goes straight to the bed.

At first glance, she was not honest in sleeping, and she didn't know how Leng Yemo could stand her in the first place. I don't know how many times I have to correct her sleeping posture this night!

After the girl got up and freshened up, she had breakfast, and after breakfast, she had nothing to do, so she went to play with Wenxuan and Ya'er.

Now the house on the south side of the small building where Niu lives has been cleaned up again, and all the things that have been put away from the warm house wine have been taken out.

Also, when Niu went to Qingzhen to deliver things, the books she brought back were also put on the shelves.

When the girl is fine, she will read a book here and accompany the clerk and the sprout.

Sometimes, I would practice calligraphy on the bookcase by the south window.

That is, this embroidery stand has never been touched from the inside. Niu really has no interest in embroidery at all.

However, Niu recently found out that when this grandmother and the big straw weaver aunt were fine, she would let herself go to see them embroidering and making clothes. Looking at this rhythm, I began to want to learn how to do needlework.

Niu has been thinking about how to hide from embroidering and making clothes these days.

After thinking about it these days, the chick also understood one thing. In ancient times, there seemed to be no girl who couldn't embroider clothes.

No matter how you think about it, how can you look at it, you can't seem to hide from this thing of embroidering and making clothes.

Maybe it's because I'm still young, so my grandmother and aunt weaving haven't been forcing me to learn, if I'm older, I won't let go of myself!

It doesn't matter, you can hide for as long as you can! More on that later.

Niu was sitting on the Persian carpet reading a book, and here she heard, "It's a spring, a big spring, the ancestor of the Tian family, congratulations, it's finally done." ”

No way! Isn't it going to be around noon to be ready so quickly?!

Niu put the book back on the shelf, came out of the house, and also came to the yard to watch the excitement.

"Tian Family Ancestor, do you want to make a spring? If you don't make a spring, make a spring pool! Uncle Zhang said excitedly to Zengzu.

Niu also saw that water was constantly bubbling out of the well. Moreover, the place where the water bubbles up seems to be not small!

What is the situation, yesterday I wanted to make a fountain in the yard, and today I realized it!!

Niu hurriedly ran into the hall, pouted her little ass, dragged a small round stool vigorously, and stepped on the small round stool to take the drawings she had read yesterday from the shelf.

It seems to be called three dragons playing in the water, right? Niu flipped through the drawings and found the drawing.

After comparing the size, it should be able to be placed in the yard. Looking at this size, it should be prepared for a small courtyard.

Otherwise, this Zhang brother wouldn't have brought it over.

Niu picked up the drawings and went to the great-grandfather, "Great-grandfather, old ancestor, let's make a spring!" Niu talked about the drawings and handed them to the great-grandfather.

"Three dragons playing in the water! Well, this is good, the girl has a vision. There happen to be three dragons in your courtyard. Uncle Zhang came over to take a look and agreed with Niu's choice.

"Okay, that's it, let's also make a spring for a big family in the courtyard." When the great-grandfather and the ancestor saw it, they didn't like it.

"Ancestor of the Tian family, you are not a big family!" Nearly 1,000 acres of courtyards, four or five acres of small courtyards, more than a dozen people, not a big household, so how to water from the top of the middle column.

Because, these three dragons are hovering upside down around the column; Therefore, the water flows into the dragon's body along an entrance to the dragon's tail, passes through the dragon's body, and then spits out of the dragon's mouth.

After the spring was placed, three small stone jars carved with dragons were placed under each dragon head, and water flowed into the small stone jars along the dragon's mouth.

No matter how you look at it, you feel that something is missing from this fountain! In the running room, I took out a pen and paper and started to draw something.

After a while, a sketch of a modern fountain appeared in front of me.

Niu talked about the sketch and handed it to Great-Ancestor, "Great-Ancestor, can you make the spring like this?" ”

"What is this?" Great-grandfather took the sketch and looked at it, a large petal-shaped pool, with three small bridges leading to three dragon heads.

"Great-grandfather, don't you find it too monotonous like this?" It feels weird to just leave it like that. And the water is left everywhere.

"And the Great Ancestor, can we use this dragon?" Isn't this ancient dragon only available to emperors?!

At the beginning, I didn't think about it, and I was a little scared when I thought about it, this ancient emperor's family was the most untouchable. That is to say that if you kill, you will kill, and if you say that you will copy your home, you will copy your home.

"Hehe, although this name is called a dragon, it is not a dragon, don't you see that they all have no feet?" Great-Ancestor smiled.

"Yes! Seeing them hovering with the clouds like this, they didn't even notice! "If you look at it so closely, it's really no feet!

As long as you can't get along with this ancient emperor's family, then it's okay, and I'm worried about it just now.

Since it can be used, then it is necessary to make a decent fountain, so as not to lose such a large spring. (To be continued.) )
