Sixty years with spring

Chapter 136

Love of the Mountains (2)

Jin Xianglan screamed and ran back, so frightened that Che Hongxuan didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly greeted him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Xie Fenfang also hurried over and took her hand and said comfortingly.

Jin Xianglan's face turned white with fright, and she calmed down for a while before she said, "I see the snake, flower," she opened her hands and gestured, and said in horror, "It's so long, really, it has swam through the river." ”

The couple smiled at each other.

Xie Ruifen patted Jin Xianglan on the back and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, don't touch it, it won't attack you." There are a lot of snakes here, and they can be seen everywhere. The snake you see is called the pheasant neck, which is the most venomous, and the neck is flat when attacking people, and the head of the big guy can be raised more than half a meter high. There are many kinds of snakes in this mountain, the iron bark (pit viper) is also very poisonous, the black snake is less poisonous but grows the largest, the locals generally do not beat it, saying that this kind of snake has become immortal and cannot be touched. There are also some snakes that are not famous, there are white and green, there are many, there are cubs and eggs, they are born poisonous, they can eat small toads and earthworms, I have seen it many times. Xie Fenfang patted her on the back and said.

Jin Xianglan exclaimed: "Ah, there will be so many snakes, it's terrible! ”

Xianglan calmed down, looked at Xie Fenfang carefully, and saw that she was medium-sized, slightly thin, wearing work clothes, smooth skin, thin eyebrows and big eyes, red lips and white teeth, estimated to be in her thirties, thought for a while, and thought that this person should not be Che Hongxuan's wife, but she must have an unusual relationship with Che Hongxuan, otherwise, he would not have run in first.

"You are ------?" Jin Xianglan asked tentatively.

Che Hongxuan immediately smiled and said, "This is my lover Xie Ruifen." ”

"This -----," Jin Xianglan looked at them with some suspicion.

Xie Ruifen still took her hand and said, "Look at the child who scares her, Hongxuan, you are too, take care of her, how have the children in the city seen this?" ”

Xianglan believed it this time, but she couldn't connect the woman in front of her with a woman in her forties anyway.

Jin Xianglan smiled mischievously and couldn't help but say, "Hmm------ why are you so young and how do you maintain it?" What cosmetics to use? ”

"Silly boy! My daughter will have a wedding dinner here tomorrow, what is still young? Xie Fenfang touched Jin Xianglan's delicate hand, looked at her lovely and delicate face and said happily, "What a beautiful girl, very similar to when I was a child." I'm as plump as you are at your age. ”

"I didn't expect you to be so young."

Xie Ruifen said kindly: "I'm not young, age is not forgiving!" ”

"I don't know what to call you."

"Whoever you want to call it will do."

"Let's talk, I'll go see the workers." Che Hongxuan turned around and left, letting go of the two dogs.

The two dogs were so happy that they ran happily in the yard, and every time Che Hongxuan came to let them go, they had to celebrate like this.

Lao Zhou, who played the shift, said well, not only the workers were happy when the manager came, but even the two dogs were happy, and the workers were so angry that they scolded him.

The two male dogs are called wild wolves, and the female is called Kuroko, both of whom have good breeds of black backs.

Every time Che Hongxuan takes them up the mountain, the wild wolf always walks in front, and the sunspot always follows behind step by step, and today is no exception.

Autumn in the mountains is obviously early, and the leaves of the palm and maple trees have turned red, like flowers blooming in the forest sea full of mountains. The black locust trees planted in the ravines are now the greenest, and some say that this tree grows in the Yellow River valley and is not growing enough in the north, so it is still verdant in this season. It's cloudy, the air is cooler, and the lush mountains are full of wisps and clouds of mist, far and near, like a fairyland, like a dream, which makes people think about it.

Che Hongxuan walked along the path to the mountains.

Now the artemisia grass by the river has withered and yellowed.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, a swarm of forest frogs by the river jumped into the water, and the sound was like someone throwing a big stone into the river.

Che Hongxuan knew that this was a forest frog that came down the mountain early.

Hearing the sound, the wolf always ran to the river to take a look, and then raised his head and watched his master run back. Once he caught a hedgehog and bit it so much that his mouth was full of blood and he didn't eat it. Another time, it caught up with a black snake more than a meter long, but was bitten by the snake and did not eat for several days. Kuroko followed his master and never left.

Xie Ruifen chatted with Jin Xianglan while leading her to knock on the basin to feed the chickens, ducks and geese. The chickens flew and ran from the artemisia grass on all sides, and a flock of ducks also ran up from the river chasing one by one, but the geese were the only ones who crowed at the sky with their necks up, and refused to come up.

"Oh Mom, it's so fun!" Jin Xianglan also knocked on the basin with a small wooden stick, and her bright face showed great excitement. In her life, such joy is so lacking.

As Che Hongxuan walked, he looked at the group of forest frogs jumping into the water by the pond. The forest frogs in Changbai Mountain have been a precious tonic since ancient times. He plans to breed 300,000 forest frogs, with an annual output value of one million. The hundreds of acres of ginseng seedlings he planted under the forest were unearthed

Very good, and the value is immeasurable after thirty years. The 400,000 black locust trees he planted in ditches and ponds and on barren mountains that had been stolen have grown to the height of more than a man. He wants to use these industries to create an economic miracle and drive the development of the local economy. Once there is output here, he will have more strength to fight to the end in the decoration industry with a harsh environment. It was an idea he had had for a long time, but he hadn't said it to anyone.

After half an hour of walking along the crystal clear stream, he came to work

Earth.

Bulldozers are parked on the road with homemade bodies, and more than a dozen workers are repairing the dam.

When everyone saw the boss coming, they all greeted him with a smile. They all want the boss to come, and they want to fight with the boss. Each of them has only a dozen acres of mountainous land, and their annual income is more than 2,000 yuan. There are only thirty or fifty goats in a few large households, each of which is only more than 300 yuan, which is not worth a few dollars. Working for Che Hongxuan in the past two years has really improved their lives.

Brother Wang knew that Che Hongxuan was going up the mountain, so he came back as soon as he went home and made simple arrangements. At this time, he walked up with a shovel, put it on his chest, and whispered to Che Hongxuan with an unhappy face: "Your daughter-in-law is really amazing, just like I carried her child into the well!" ”

Che Hongxuan drank: "You speak with some measure!" ”

Brother Wang said unconvinced: "Forget it!" Sometimes I am so angry that my stomach hurts, and I really want to shoot her to death with a shovel! ”

Che Hongxuan looked at him angrily.

Brother Wang took a breath and continued, "There are a few things I have to tell you. One is that the worker has to pay his salary today, and your daughter-in-law says that I don't remember my salary correctly, what should I do? ”

Che Hongxuan asked: "How much is the difference?" ”

"Less than a thousand."

"You get your salary according to her calculation first, and I'll give you another thousand, don't make her unhappy, she won't care about these things next year."

Brother Wang nodded with satisfaction and said, "I discussed with the accountant (Xie Ruifen) and thought that the entire construction should come to an end. Now the toads have begun to descend the mountain, and we work so that the ravine is full of cement, which is certainly not going to work, and many toads will not go down the mountain. The tractor can't go into the mountains anymore, the earth shakes when it starts, and the toads haven't all run out? As soon as the workers have a holiday tomorrow for the autumn harvest, I am ready to stop work, and this matter is waiting for you to decide. Your daughter-in-law said that it was about to cost a million, and it is difficult to say when the money will be recovered, so I agree with her opinion on this, control it. ”

"That's it."

"I'll let you know when you get off work today. Your daughter-in-law also gave a death order, when will this dam be finished today, and when will you get off work? ”

Wang Shun lowered his head and thought for a while and continued: "Also, my last debt outside has also been repaid, and I pulled ten carts of firewood from this mountain. Your daughter-in-law found out about this and refused to give up, and wanted to deduct my salary, and I told her that the village wanted it, and you have to talk to your daughter-in-law. ”

"Okay, that's all for those two things." Che Hongxuan nodded, he also made up his mind not to continue to invest here.

Wang Shun continued: "In the end, it's still your nephew Wang He's matter, it's twenty-eight this year, why do you have to find a daughter-in-law?" It's up to you, I'm so poor that I jingle it

Ringing, there is no way at all. Recently, one of our workers is surnamed Sun, and the girl in her family is a little interesting to Wang He, she is very good, and her age is not quite the same, so it depends on you. According to local customs and habits, the bride price of the bride price is generally 60,000 yuan, and the more one is 100,000 yuan. There is also a condition, when you get married, you have to buy a house in the county. ”

Che Hongxuan thought for a moment and said, "We must do this well." I've got a big project next year, and it's all good to say when I take it down. So, I'm going to go out tonight and talk about it. I have to say two things to you, you have to be obedient here, you can't complain every day! ”

"Okay, I'll be more careful in the future! After handling the child's affairs well, I can bear the big grievances. Just now, it was just scolding the emperor behind his back, and it was just with you to be angry and let go of your grievances, whoever made us all come from our hometown, and people are not close to the soil. ”

Che Hongxuan ordered: "In the future, we must grasp the proportion." ”

Brother Wang nodded and replied, "Be sure to pay attention." ”

"In this way, you ask the driver to drive the bulldozer back, clean and seal it, and it will not move this year. Let Wang He go to the Guanyin Pavilion Reservoir to buy a hundred yuan of fish, and buy a few stupid chickens. Wine is also ready, I have guests tomorrow. Find two more people to go to someone's house to catch a sheep, and leave it for the evening and tomorrow to eat. ”

Che Hongxuan took out 2,000 yuan from the small bag and handed it to Brother Wang, 1,000 yuan to make up for the workers' wages, and 1,000 yuan to buy things.

Brother Wang took the money and handed the shovel to Che Hongxuan.

Che Hongxuan told Brother Wang: "In the evening, Secretary Lang and Village Chief Wei of the village also came over to drink, and the dishes should be prepared enough." ”

Brother Wang took away the two workers who could cook.

Che Hongxuan took the shovel and drank with a few people while calling for the fire to come on

of the call number.

Everyone was happy to work with him every time, and they felt honored to work and drink with such a big boss.

When it was almost dark, the work was finished.

A group of people in the courtyard were very busy, boiling mutton soup for boiling mutton soup, stewing fish for stewing fish, and stir-fry for stir-frying.

Lao Zhou and his wife were responsible for preparing firewood for the fire.

There is no electricity here, it is lit by a 500-watt gasoline generator, and only when the boss comes can it generate electricity. Now the generator has been "spitting" non-stop, several lights in the yard are shining like day, and the front and back houses are also brightly lit.

Village Secretary Lang and Village Chief Wei came over in a jeep, and they also brought wine and food.

Secretary Lang is not tall and fat, he is very bold in his work, and his relationship with the masses is good, and his prestige is very high. The head of Wei Village is slender and tall, very easy-going, always with a smile on his face, never offends people, the villagers call him "Wei Big Man" to his face, and call him "Big Noodles Melon" behind his back.

Xie Ruifen kept the mutton, chicken, and fish to eat tomorrow, cooked vegetables with Jin Xianglan, and after eating, led the two dogs and went to the mountains to play with a rechargeable flashlight.

Xianglan was afraid of snakes, Xie Ruifen asked her to put on Che Hongxuan's big water boots and told her that she didn't have to be afraid of snakes.

Along the way, Xie Ruifen introduced which trees were, where ginseng was planted, and where black locust was planted to pandan one by one. He also told her which pond had a pair of mandarin ducks and which pond had a few wild ducks. He also explained that he could not see them at this time, and that they would not come out until tomorrow morning.

Xie Ruifen never cared who came here or how many people came, and ignored the workers and did not come into contact with them.

Before the table was opened, Che Hongxuan called Lao Sun.

Lao Sun understood that it was for his daughter and Wang He's business. Lao Sun is in his forties, not tall, and has a strong body.

Che Hongxuan explained the meaning, and Lao Sun did not raise any objections, but he felt that Wang He was a little older and his family background was not good, so he was very hesitant.

Lao Sun said: "My girl is just 20 years old, and I need to go home and discuss it with my mother." ”

There is no reason why Cha Hongxuan should not understand.

After the two talked, they returned to the North House to prepare for a drink.
