Chapter 243: Passing on the Ordinary Things (9)
Prevent and control the epidemic, overcome poverty, oppose piracy, and support genuine reading.
Rong Chang put the two wolf teeth on the coffee table, got up and walked to the storage room on the first floor, and walked out after a while, holding a white silver chain of wolf teeth in his hand.
Rong Chang handed the wolf tooth to Miao Miao to see, Miao Miao compared the three wolf teeth, Rong Chang's wolf tooth ornament was slightly shorter than his own two, and it looked old in terms of color.
Looking at Miao Miao's face full of doubts, Rong Chang said with a smile: "This wolf tooth of mine was given to me by Halik thirty years ago. At that time, his family lived in an adobe house under the winter pasture for the winter, an avalanche trapped their family under the mountain, that year I was a platoon commander of a border company, and seven or eight soldiers rode horses, rescued their family from the snow mountain, in order to repay the grace of saving lives, he gave a wolf tooth to each of us, and he gave me the wolf king tooth. ”
Rong Chang's eyes narrowed, recalling the difficult years of the year.
It was a freezing winter, and the wind and snow caused many avalanches in the winter pasture of Wusun Mountain.
He and his soldiers braved the cold wind, ate and drank dew, rode a high-headed horse to rescue people, and went back and forth for three days and three nights along the way before bringing Halik and his family to the barracks of the border company.
That winter, he and the soldiers were all frostbitten, and for so many years, if Miao Miao didn't take out his wolf teeth, he wouldn't be able to remember this incident.
Stick to the northwest border of the motherland, defend the country, and fight the horses, with a flick of his fingers, he was born in the army, from a young and strong guy to a veteran with gray temples, and the years are not forgiving!
Rong Chang came back to his senses and said to Miao Miao with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many years, this old guy is becoming more and more generous, and he will send you wolf teeth when he helps his family transfer, it seems that he has accumulated a lot of wolf teeth over the years." By the way, his Han wife is okay. ”
Speaking of the old man Halik's wife, Miao Miao said with a heavy heart: "His wife died early, and that night, he drank wine and sang a song, and he cried when he missed his wife." ”
"Hey, it's really unfulfilling, his wife cut off the relationship with his mother's family in order to be with him, that is a woman with a knife mouth and a tofu heart." The kind and hearty woman left a deep impression on Rongchang.
More than 40 years ago, the love story of the Kazakh boy Khalik and his Han wife became a beautiful conversation in the steppe, and people envied this pair of galloping steppes and loving couples. ”
When Rong Chang heard Miao Miao say that the old man Halik only gave him two wolf teeth, he carefully looked at Miao Miao and asked, "Which night you drank wine, you must have done something to make that old guy Halik like you." ”
Miao Miao tried to recall: "The last bottle of wine was handed over to me to be the master, at that time, I saw that everyone drank a little too much, and I accepted it when I saw it, and I only poured a glass of wine for everyone, and said to the old man Halik, I didn't drink it again every year." And I sang a love song, which may have touched the old man. ”
"Ha--ha--ha--" Rong Chang laughed heartily, "I'll just say, this cunning old guy, isn't it, in the end, you didn't drink, and the others were still drinking?" ”
Miao Miao felt that his old man was simply divine, and he hurriedly replied: "That is, the next morning, they were all too drunk to get up, and the old man Halik gave me wolf teeth after getting up, and told me not to tell anyone else, by the way, he said at the time, you know me, God knows." ”
Thinking of the old man's advice at that time, Miao Miao was a little nervous, he broke his promise, and when he was happy, he actually told the agreement between him and the old man Halik.
Looking at his worried face, Rong Chang smiled and patted Miao Miao's shoulder, and asked Miao Miao meaningfully: "Miao Miao, do you know that old guy Halik, why do you like you?" ”
Seeing that the second monk Miao Miao was puzzled, Rong Chang said earnestly: "This old guy, see that you can restrain yourself in wine, you don't drink too much, and you will accept it when you see it." The color of wine and wine are closely indistinguishable, and Halik knows it slightly! You still have a long way to go in the future, and you may encounter some temptations, but you must grasp yourself and don't let down Khalik's appreciation of you. ”
Rong Chang swallowed the words "Don't live up to our trust in you and Lulu's love for you" that had come to his mouth, and he remembered his daughter's words this morning.
Miao Miao listened to Rong Chang's pun, nodded vigorously, and did not answer, he took tonight's words to heart.
Rong Chang saw that Miao Miao had completely listened to his words, so he didn't say anything more, and immediately changed the topic: "Miao Miao, what are you going to arrange for these two wolf teeth?" ”
Miao Miao's sword eyebrows raised slightly, her expression was pleasant, and she smiled, "I plan to make a couple pendant with Lulu." ”
Rong Chang looked at these two wolf tooth masters, and thought to himself that he must find a skilled craftsman to design the style of the pendant, but don't be violent and ruin, and said with concern: "Where are you going to do it?" What's the design? ”
Miao Miao happily said frankly: "I have already designed it, Lulu's pendant chain is inlaid with a tiger and engraved with the word Miao; My pendant is inlaid with a cow and engraved with a revealing letter. Both of us have their genus and name, and they also contain the meaning of you having me and I having you. ”
"Well, yes, it makes sense." Rong Chang nodded and gave Miao Miao advice.
"There are craftsmen in Ningxi City who can design this kind of craftsman, but the workmanship is rougher and spoils such a good thing. In this way, give these two wolf teeth to Aunt Lulu, she has a few friends who do jade carving in Hangzhou, and making a pendant is a small skill of carving insects. ”
Miao Miao grinned happily, Rong Chang asked Miao Miao to write down his design ideas on a piece of paper, and when the time came, Rong Chang would find a way to ask someone to bring it to his sister.
Kong Jia finished cleaning up the kitchen, walked to the balcony and shook down the drying rack, took out a set of camouflage clothes to dry on it, and handed it to Miao Miao: "Miao Miao, this is your uncle's clothes, you take it and wear it, and change it with this camouflage uniform on your body." ”
Kong Jia found that Miao Miao's child was more diligent and thrifty, and after washing the camouflage uniform at night, he dried it in the washing machine and dried it, and then took it and wore it again the next morning.
Although it was spring and the clothes had been spun dry, they were picked up and worn in the morning, and the clothes were not thoroughly dried, and they were still a little damp.
In the early morning of the next day, a cool spring rain drifted in the sky, making the spring breath of Ningxi City more and more intense, the rain drew a long oblique line in the air, and high-rise buildings, green forest belts, passing vehicles and pedestrians were bathed in the water curtain.
When the car drove on the road leading to Mutu Village, Miao Miao suddenly found that the mountain peach trees on the side of the road had bloomed, and the soft flowers trembled in the wind and rain of the spring cold.
Looking at the snow-white or pink peach blossoms blooming on the roadside, Miao Miao was pleasantly surprised, the mountain peach blossoms were the earliest to bloom in Ningxi City, the peach trees were the earliest to awaken than other tree species, and the slender branches could easily capture the humid and faint spring breath in the air.
