Wang Manyin was looking for Tian Fujun to report to work, and it was not appropriate to bring his mother-in-law with him.

When he arrived at the door of the Revolutionary Committee, he left the orchid to look at the bicycle, and explained his intention to the guards alone.

Wang Manyin has been here a few times, and the other party has some impressions.

After a brief inquiry, I took it to Director Tian.

Tian Fujun was also a little surprised by his arrival, but he looked quite enthusiastic on his face.

"Director Tian, I am the ...... entrusted by the village to report to you on the construction of the earthen dam in Jarzi Village and the recent promotion of new bacterial fertilizers." z.br>

Knowing that the other party was a busy man, Wang Manyin went straight to the point and explained his intentions.

In the matter of repairing the earth dam, Tian Fujun made great efforts, so he naturally paid great attention to it.

In this regard, Wang Manyin answered all questions, and invited the other party to have time to visit and guide the jar village.

Hearing the rice field fish farming model, Tian Fujun was even more interested and kept asking about the relevant details. He immediately said that he would go there in person when he had time.

After several contacts, Tian Fujun also had a good impression of the son-in-law of the Sun family. He is very thoughtful and responsible in doing things, and he is more rational in dealing with people. There is a clear difference from many young people today.

After mixing a wave of favor, Wang Manyin got up to say goodbye.

Out of the compound of the Revolutionary Committee, he drove out of the city with orchids.

After driving some distance, Orchid spoke, "Man Yin, I forgot to tell you. It seems that Runye is a little interesting to Shao'an, and he has been inquiring about his situation last night. I also asked Shao'an if he was ...... to find a girlfriend."

"What do you think?" Wang Manyin did not answer the rhetorical question.

The girl was relatively early in her feelings, and the last time she came to the county seat, he felt that Tian Runye obviously had thoughts about her brother-in-law. However, Shao'an is still in a state of confusion, and he regards Runye more as his sister.

"Runye is a well-known person, has a good temper, and is also beautiful, which is a good match for our Shao'an. I just don't know what Uncle Futang's attitude is, whether he can take a fancy to Shao'an." Orchids have some openings that suffer from gains and losses.

Although it is a new society, after all, it is important to pay attention to the right person. Uncle Futang is the party secretary of Shuangshui Village, and he has a younger brother who is a leader in the county seat. The status of the two families is too incompatible.

"Now Shao'an's work is not bad, the promotion of bacterial fertilizer has made achievements, and he has left his name in the commune. As long as nothing goes wrong, it should be no problem to stay in the supply and marketing cooperative. However, let's not get involved in the matter of the two of them, and don't spread the word when we go back. When the time comes, if you really need money, let's help you."

Since Wang Manyin crossed into the world, the fate of the Sun family has changed.

In the past, Shao'an was a sufferer in Shuangshui Village, and Tian Futang definitely couldn't look down on him.

Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that Sun Yuhou's eldest son is about to make a difference. So what kind of attitude Tian Futang will have, I really can't say.

In addition, whether it is Tian Runye or He Xiulian...... Both are good women.

Who to marry is the brother-in-law's own business.

Wang Manyin's attitude has always been very clear: do not mix, everything will go naturally.

Hearing her husband's words, Orchid also nodded.

That's right, this matter mainly depends on what the two parties think, and when the sister can only beat the side drum.

After suppressing the matter in her heart, Orchid asked again, "Man Yin, is there a seller of incense watches in the county now?"

"yes, what's wrong?" Wang Manyin replied with doubts, not knowing what her aunt meant by suddenly changing the topic.

The Loess Plateau is sandwiched between the grassland, the northwest and Qinchuan, and the folk customs situation is complicated, and all kinds of gods and gods have always been prevalent.

Just like leeks in the field, they are cut one stubble after another.

Although the original West County has changed customs and is not allowed to burn incense or anything, there are still people who secretly sell these things in private, after all, there are many people who want to do white things.

It's just that it's hard for outsiders who are not familiar with the doorway to buy it. For him, it wasn't too difficult.

"Aren't we going to visit the Stone Buddha Temple, I want to have incense." Orchid looked at no one around and replied quietly.

"What do you want? If people can see it, the two of us

None of them will be good." Wang Manyin was frightened by her aunt's boldness, and subconsciously slowed down.

"How can anyone enter the temple without burning incense...... Let's put it in a cloth bag, and I won't take it out if there's anyone."

"Okay," Wang Manyin could only nod.

I finally came to the county seat, so I followed my aunt's ideas.

He is very familiar with the original western county town, and knows that there is a family selling incense watches not far ahead.

Wang Manyin felt like a thief in the whole process, bought an incense watch, immediately put it in a cloth bag, and left on a bicycle.

Nearly 30 kilometers from the original West County Town to the Shifo Temple, he walked and rode for most of the day. Seeing that it was almost noon, I finally arrived at the place.

Now all the monks in the Stone Buddha Temple are still layman, and this place is completely deserted, and no one has come at all.

Wang Manyin found a remote place to park the car and took the first stone statue of his mother-in-law to look at.

When he got closer, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Good fellow!"

In the smashed stone incense burner in front of the statue, there are many burnt incense sticks, and the burning marks of the cigarette ash are obviously left in the last few days.

Wang Manyin felt a little speechless.

However, thinking of the scene of the mothers-in-law and aunts around the jar village incense the snakes, he felt understandable again. It can only be said that people's traditional concepts are very strong, and there is no way to eliminate them for a while.

Taking advantage of the incense of his mother-in-law, Wang Manyin admired the statue on the stone wall with great interest. According to the broken stone tablet, these stone statues have been built since the time of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and then have been built in all dynasties, and now there are almost thousands of large and small statues.

One of the largest grottoes is more than 30 meters high and 60 meters wide; In the center sits an extra-large stone Buddha, surrounded by stone walls and caves carved with various exquisite patterns and calligraphy.

Unfortunately, a lot of it is incomplete.

Along the way, Wang Manyin saw some doorways.

These stone statues are distinctively aged, with deep eyes and high noses in the early days, solemn and solemn, and obviously with alien characteristics. In the later stage, it became more and more localized.

Especially the clay sculptures in the back are very rich in the characteristics of the Loess Plateau and very down-to-earth. There is a bodhisattva who is molded into an aunt who brings water to her husband, and Kaye is an old man who farms in the field. Even the mother who sent her son was an image of an aunt with a broken baby in her arms.

When the orchid saw the mother who sent the child, she hurriedly kowtowed, and then reached out and hummed again:

January pregnant in the mother's body,

Silent and without a trace,

Like duckweed on the water,

I don't know if it takes root or not.

February pregnant in the mother's body,

Dizziness and hard work.

I want to eat peaches, I want to eat apricots......

Looking at the orchid's extremely pious appearance, Wang Manyin's heart was also a little infected, and he couldn't help but kneel down and kowtow.

After shopping, he couldn't help frowning when he was about to leave with his aunt.

In the river road ahead, two men suddenly walked briskly.

Turning his head to look behind him, a figure also appeared.

One after the other, it seems that they want to block them in the valley.

Wang Manyin didn't dare to take any chances, and immediately said decisively: "Orchid, you wait here, I'll go behind the stone to relieve my hands."

As he spoke, he hurried to the back of the stone wall.

In a flash, enter the space.

When he reappeared, he had a knife hidden under his waist clothes.

"Man Yin, look at what those two people are doing, it seems to be coming at us."

At this time, Orchid also felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly spoke up.

"Don't be afraid, wait until you stand behind the rock, and I'll do everything." Wang Manyin pretended to be relaxed. In his heart, he was ready. Once something is wrong, they will be the first to take the lead and solve the two as quickly as possible.

After going through too many things, he grew bolder.

Fortunately, the first two people to arrive did not make any dangerous moves.

The middle-aged man in the lead stared at them and asked aloud:

"What are you doing, two village parties?"

"We're members of the Malaysia River, and we're here to play." Although Wang Manyin's limbs were tense, he still responded with a smile.

The predecessor has been running blindly in the former West County, and is very familiar with the situation of various nearby villages and towns.

Not far from the Stone Buddha Temple, there is the Dama River. That generation was traditionally a good place to produce millet, but later the commune allowed it to be planted with sorghum. The reason is that sorghum is highly yielding, and most of the crops in Dazhai are also grown with sorghum.

Of course, in fact, the yield of millet is not low, and the quality of grain is better than that of sorghum.

"Are you really from the Malaysian River?" Hearing this, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the other party did not let down his guard.

After a pause, he asked out loud, "Does Xue Laosan of Xue Jiagou know each other?"

Hearing this, Orchid became nervous.

"Yes, I know too well. Xue Laosan has swollen eye bubbles and speaks in a somewhat hoarse voice." Knowing that there was temptation in the other party's words, Wang Manyin quickly replied.

Thanks to the blessing of the predecessor, there is really this person in my memory.

"Third child, do you know him!?" The middle-aged man completely relaxed and shouted at the other two who hurried in the distance. But it was the two people who were in charge of interception at the other end who rushed to the front.

"Who may I see?" A hoarse voice sounded, and then the other party said excitedly: "Man Yin, I haven't seen you for more than half a year, why don't you come to the county seat to find me?"

It was Xue Laosan who spoke.

The cat looks for the cat, the dog looks for the dog, and the turtle follows the king.

According to memory, this person is also a second-rate fool, and his predecessor also did a small business with the other party.

"I got married last year and have been staying at home. I had free time today, so I took my aunt around with me, and I didn't expect to meet you here." Wang Manyin replied with a smile, but secretly he was always careful.

Regardless of Xue Laosan or Ma Laosi, once there is any abnormality, immediately draw the knife.

"Xue Laosan, is it really your Ma River?"

", this kid doesn't have a word of truth in his mouth, he's just a ghost. But don't worry, Brother Zhao, I know Manyin, and I won't order us."

Immediately, he turned his head and said, "Don't mind, we are trading in the mountains, so be careful." Why don't you play two?"

"I'll talk about it when I have a chance later, I'll take my mother-in-law with me today, I won't bother you, I'll leave now."

"Okay, go to Xuejiagou to play with me in the future......" Xue Laosan didn't keep it.

The two didn't linger any longer, found the bicycle and hurried away.

It wasn't until she returned to the dirt road that Orchid asked, "Manyin, what are they doing, and they can also do business in the mountains?"

", what kind of business to do, it's just gambling," Wang Manyin pouted.

It seems that after several blows, these people have become smarter and know how to find someone to keep sentry.

However, gambling people are all rotten cowards, and they are in a hurry to sell their children and daughters. If it weren't for Xue Laosan today, I'm afraid the two of them wouldn't be able to get out so easily.
