Chapter 5 Mu Zixing's past
Because I have been away for too long, I can only follow Xu Tingyao because I am not familiar with the place, no way, do you think I am willing! Who made me not know the way?
When crossing the street, I forgot to take the zebra crossing, and I was taught a lesson by the police uncle.
"You're such a big person, you don't even have this bit of common sense, my children know that you have to take the zebra crossing when crossing the road, and you don't walk with the zebra crossing, but you learn hurdles from others. β
He sighed and taught me earnestly: "You said that you can forget about the hurdles, and you can't cross it, you really give your parents a long face, if one accidentally gets stuck in the crotch, how can you be good?"
I was taught a lesson and lost my temper, I lowered my head and listened, listening to the teacher's reprimand like a child who made a mistake, in fact, I am also habitual, I haven't returned to Huaxia for so long, and there are so many changes here, I have forgotten the rules of Huaxia.
When I was in Africa, when I went out with my brothers on vacation, I usually didn't take the zebra crossing, because the fence was very empty, and the local government didn't care about traffic rules.
We usually stumble past one after another, like Liu Xiang, that feeling, double cool! Back in Huaxia, who the fuck knew that this fence was so high!!
Xu Tingyao took me to revisit the places I used to go to, she took out her mobile phone and looked at it, and before I knew it, it was already past eleven o'clock, let's go to Uncle Da's noodle restaurant first.
We used to come to Uncle Da's noodle restaurant to eat after class, and the Guilin rice noodles he made were the most delicious and the most abundant in our impression.
The varieties of Guilin rice noodles can be divided into braised rice noodles, lettuce rice noodles, horse meat rice noodles, original soup rice noodles, beef brisket rice noodles, etc., the secret recipe is mainly to add some homemade seasonings to the brine to make the taste more delicious.
Walking on the street, my eyes are rolling around, wow, hehe.
When we came to the front of the noodle shop, the signboard on it said "Handa Noodle Restaurant", the faΓ§ade was still the same, it had not changed, Uncle Da's original name was Peng Da, and he was an honest man.
His noodle shop was originally named because his friends who played with him in the village since he was a child called him "Handa", because he always reacted half a beat slower than others, and his friends did not mean to despise him.
Of course, he is definitely not a fool, Uncle Da is a down-to-earth person, and he will calculate the consequences before doing anything, so he is always half a beat slow.
But he has a long-term vision, so the name of this noodle restaurant means that he is nostalgic for the past.
When we went in, we found that there was a young man next to him, and I thought it was his apprentice.
Although a few years have passed, Uncle Da has not forgotten us, why?
Because we used to come here for supper after class in the evening, Uncle Da certainly had a deep impression of us.
After a while, he served us two bowls of Guilin rice noodles, but Xu Tingyao looked very anxious after receiving a phone call, and said to me: "I have a little urgent to do, so I'll go first, I'll come to you tonight, and I'll call you later." β
Before I could react, she took out a mobile phone from her bag and gave it to me, and said to me, "This is my spare mobile phone, I don't need it under normal circumstances, remember to wait for my phone tonight, I'll go find you for supper." β
Xu Tingyao hurried to the door without even moving the chopsticks, because I had strong digestion, I was so hungry, and I devoured the two bowls of rice noodles.
The people around me looked at me like refugees, and Uncle Da also came to sit and chat with me.
"Uncle Da, are you an apprentice?" I pointed to the guy who was standing next to Uncle Da just now.
"Count him as half an apprentice, he is a distant relative of mine. Uncle Da said to me smoking a dry cigarette, his face full of regret.
...............
Through Uncle Da's communication, I learned that the young man's name is Mu Zixing, who is only in his 20s, about the same age as me, and can be said to be a business talent.
He was a rural man who lived in the mountains, and every morning he had to walk several kilometers to the school at that time, and his grades were very good, and he often took the first place in the exams.
Later, when he was in junior high school, his family was too poor to pay for tuition, so Mu Zixing had to drop out of school and go home to work as a farmer.
He was a man of great ambitions, but the circumstances at this time were not what he wanted.
Loss and depression filled this young heart.
The peasants are busy all year round, only the Chinese New Year is free, and a few days before the Chinese New Year, the whole village gathers in a heap to go to the city to catch the market.
Whether you have money or no money, you will go, a few money will buy some New Year's goods to go home, and those who don't have money should go to the city to have a lively scene, open their eyes, and return to the village to have the capital to brag with their buddies.
The peasants are simple and careful, selfless in their hearts, and Mu Zixing follows behind the adults and at the back of the team
Those three aunts and six mothers-in-law were discussing this and being surprised in front of them, showing the image of ** naked mountain coming out.
And Mu Zixing never participates in these unnutritious topics, every time he rushes to the market, he pays attention to the people around him who do business, listens to them, and watches the way they do business.
His gaze rested on a stall guarded by an old man with a dozen dark yellow yams.
There was also a sign next to the stall that read "Nourishing yam herbs, 200 yuan a piece", but no one went there to watch.
Mu Zixing felt very strange, he had seen a few of this kind of things in his mountains, so he left the team of the three aunts and six women.
Running up to the old man, he said questioningly, "Boss, why is this medicinal herb so valuable, and what is the effect?"
The old man stroked his beard with a smile and said: "This yam has a great effect, and the superstition point is to nourish the soul of the human body, and if it is used from a medical point of view, it is to nourish yin and aphrodisiac." β
Mu Zixing said with interest: "There is a small area on the mountain in my village that belongs to my family, and these medicinal herbs have grown inexplicably in the past few years, and it is estimated that there are hundreds of them." β
The old man patted his thigh excitedly: "Are you sure? This medicinal herb is almost extinct, if it weren't for my lack of money and I didn't want to borrow money, I wouldn't be willing to sell it for money!"
"Are you sure?"
"That's it, I'm an authentic person, I won't cheat you, I'll buy your medicinal materials for a hundred yuan a piece, even if I pull down my face and find someone to borrow money, I'll buy all your medicinal materials, okay?"
"What? I heard you right!"
"You heard it right, I bought all your medicinal materials, these years, these resources are used a little less, very precious!"
"All of them, why do you want so much?"
"I have my use, don't ask so much, I'll take as much as you want!"
"Okay, I'll give it all to you!"
The old man wrote his address and phone number on the note and gave it to Mu Zixing, and when Mu Zixing returned home, he explained the situation to his family.
The next day, the whole family went out to pick these yams, and in half a day, they collected all the yams in the small field.
The tractor was loaded with a full cart of black tarpaulin, and rushed to the old man's house in a hurry.
When the old man saw that it was really a cart of yams that he wanted, his eyes showed a greedy gaze, and he forgot to put on his shoes, and hurriedly ran to the tractor to look around quietly, and then closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
In the end, the old man happily took out 100,000 yuan from the house and gave it to Mu Zixing and said, "Here is 100,000 yuan for you, and the extra will be regarded as an additional reward for you. β
The old man whispered a few words in Mu Zixing's ear: "No one should go into the mountains, there will be danger, but you can't tell anyone to know, let everything go naturally, otherwise those who know will not escape the doom! I see that your life is very hard, your blood is strong, and you can bear it!" Mu Zixing listened to it in his heart.
When Mu Zixing returned to the village, the villagers knew that he had earned 100,000 yuan, which was an astronomical amount for the villagers at that time.
In the village, because the dark yellow yam was all brightened by the wood, the villagers could not pick such a valuable yam, and the yam would not grow again after picking it once.
Therefore, other villagers tried to plant other varieties of medicinal herbs on the mountain, and Mu Zixing also saw that there was a huge business opportunity in this area.
Naturally, he began to buy all the medicinal herbs grown by the villagers, and then sold them to the pharmaceutical companies in the city, and within a few years, all the people in the village began to build three-and-a-half-story bungalows, and life gradually became richer.
Mu Zixing also became the richest man in the village, married a beautiful girl in the city, that girl graduated from college, her name is Wu Xiao, one year younger than Mu Zixing, she met by chance during a trip, and it was love at first sight.
Later, they left each other's phone calls, and as they got in touch more, their feelings were cultivated, and everything went smoothly to marry the bride.
However, the happy days did not last long, and for a period of time, their family walked in the downhill of fate, and their business failed again and again, and finally they were destitute.
During that time, Mu Zixing often sat alone on the roof of the building, smoking and drinking, and his depressed emotions welled up in his heart.
The family tried to communicate with Mu Zixing, wanting to try their luck in the mountains to see if they could find the dark yellow medicinal herbs sold to the old man, which were valuable, but Mu Zixing always objected.
He didn't say what the specific reason was for his family to go into the mountains, so one morning, his parents and daughter-in-law took advantage of Mu Zixing to go to the provincial capital and decided to go deep in the mountains to find those dark yellow yams, and they wanted to help Mu Zixing make a comeback to raise funds.
At dusk, there was a very faint moon shadow hanging in the sky, the sun had not completely set, Mu Zixing returned home and found that there was no one at home, and then he knocked on the door everywhere in the village to ask.
Finally, a villager learned that his family was walking in the direction of the deep mountain.
Mu Zixing thought about it in his heart, "Something happened!" He didn't think about it, so he borrowed a flashlight from a neighbor's house and hurriedly ran in the direction of the deep mountains.
He had to go alone, not with the villagers, otherwise, something might happen to them, and he ran desperately, the brand-new leather shoes on his feet were now muddy, and the suit on his body was soaked with sweat.
When he came to the entrance of the deep mountain, the entrance was in the middle of the two mountains, and it was also a sheep's intestine path, which could only be walked by one person.
From the outside, looking inside, it was pitch black, it was surrounded by several mountains, and it was shrouded in fog for a long time, and standing in front of the entrance, you could feel the cold wind blowing from the mountain pass, penetrating the bones, and goosebumps rose on the back.
The mountains, taken as a whole, look like a camel looking up at the moon.
