Chapter 152: Qingmei
After Xiao Mengqiu finished speaking, he also asked them: "What major are you going to study in the future?" ”
Xiao Fang and Xu Xinning glanced at each other, and then said in unison: "Computer science and physics." ”
Yan Hong was sad when he heard it, childhood sweethearts, they have common hobbies, and they can learn and progress together, how many people dream of a good thing?
Anyway, he was envious and jealous when he heard it.
Xiao Mengqiu didn't think much about it, and nodded in agreement: "In the past two years, the computer major has been a big hit in the college entrance examination, and physics is also very good, you have to work hard." ”
After she finished speaking, she thought that Xiao Hong hadn't said anything yet, so she stepped forward and hugged the back of the chair and asked, "Xiao Hong, what about you?" ”
Xiao Hong was shocked.
She didn't know what kind of professional university Xu Xinning went to in her dream, but in her dream, Xiao Fang went to the city to be a teacher, and she studied at a normal university.
Obviously, reality is not the same as in dreams.
"I don't have to choose a major." Xiao Hong pretended to be calm: "It depends on which university my grades can hook up." ”
"Hahahaha..."Xiao Mengqiu, who reacted, was amused and laughed: "You didn't take school seriously, and now you regret it, right?" ”
encouraged her again: "There's still some time, don't you all say that you are grinding guns in battle, and if you are not happy, you will be light?" Maybe you can make a blind cat meet a dead mouse and be admitted to college? ”
"Besides, when Xiao Fang and the others are all admitted to the university and go to the provincial capital, they will leave you here alone, how boring are you?"
"The provincial city is bustling and bustling, karaoke can sing, there is a dance hall and ice rink, there are so many fun things to go, it would be a pity if you couldn't go."
She is agitating the method, Xiao Hong is too familiar, of course she doesn't want to be fooled, and pretends not to care: "There is also an ice rink and a dance hall in the town, why do you have to squeeze into the provincial capital?" ”
Xiao Hong also deliberately sang against Xiao Mengqiu: "If I can't pass the exam, I will open a department store in the town, and I can eat whatever I want, why do I have to go to the provincial capital?" ”
Speaking unintentionally, the listener is intentional.
Xiao Hong's words, Xiao Fang didn't care, because Xiao Hong had already told her that if she couldn't get into college, she would go to the provincial capital to do some small business.
Anyway, I made up my mind to go to the provincial capital while I was young.
But Yan Hong heard it in his heart.
He had also asked his cousin before, knowing that Xiao Hong's grades were dangling in the middle and upper reaches, and it was difficult to be admitted to a good university.
Therefore, he also deliberately collected some universities with relatively low admission scores, such as agricultural universities, Jiaotong universities, and technical schools.
is to give Xiao Hong a goal.
But now when he heard Xiao Hong's words of 'not wanting to forge ahead', he was a little panicked.
He also wants Xiao Hong to go to the provincial capital, otherwise it is too far apart, how can he fall in love?
Originally, he didn't want to say something to disturb her mind at this important time, but now he hesitated.
After they arrived in the village, not surprisingly, some children were greeted by the sound of cars.
Xiao Hong was also prepared, and gave each of them a handful of sugar: "Xiao Qi, this car is hard for you to watch for us, we will leave at three o'clock in the afternoon, and then we will give you candy to eat." ”
In fact, she was afraid that the children would be too curious and didn't know the severity, so she simply handed over the task of 'watching the car' to them, which would be safer.
Xiao Qi instantly looked like a little general who was going to war, and saluted excitedly: "Yes, I promise to complete the task." ”
After all, what children like most is to be entrusted with important tasks.
In addition, there are delicious toffee and mint rewards, and of course everyone is very happy.
They also brought two catties of fresh meat back to Grandpa Zhao, there is no fresh meat to sell in Zha Village, and if you want to eat meat, you have to go to Houzhai Town to buy it.
But anyway, everyone is usually reluctant to buy meat, and if they haven't eaten meat for ten days and half a month, they will be willing to cut some bacon and steam, or stew tofu with bacon, which is considered a good dish.
They came a little late, Grandpa Zhao had already gone to the field to pull weeds, and only Zhao Laosan, who had inconvenient legs and feet, was left at home.
After chatting with him for a few words, Xiao Fang made an appointment to go to the uncle's house for lunch at noon, and asked him to help kill a duck, and let the aunt get it later.
Then I went to the uncle's house, agreed with the aunt to have a dish at noon, and by the way, I left the braised pig's head meat and braised chicken, and then I carried the hoe, urea bag, and rope from the aunt's house to the back mountain.
Spring bamboo shoots can be eaten from March to May.
It's a pity that the people in the village don't like to eat bamboo shoots very much, because the bamboo shoots will scrape oil.
Now people themselves are short of oil and water, but they are reluctant to scrape the little oil that they have saved in their stomachs with great difficulty.
Therefore, they are also occasionally willing to put some bacon into the stewed bamboo shoots and eat fresh.
Most of them are dug up and shipped out to sell, and if they can't be sold, they are dried into bamboo shoots.
However, drying bamboo shoots has requirements for the weather, and if the weather is bad, you can only burn charcoal to dry.
This is meticulous work, laborious and time-consuming, so that many people are unwilling to bother to dry bamboo shoots.
Eventually, the bamboo forest became more and more lush, so that there were many people in the village who could work as carpenters.
It can be said that every family in the village has its own bamboo forest, that is, the less is only about half an acre of land, and the more can have about four or five acres of bamboo forest.
The main reason is that the mountains are uneven, the land is barren, and there is no interest in planting anything, and only bamboo can grow tenaciously.
When the Zhao family was divided, Zhao Laosi was not very lucky, and he was assigned to more than five acres of bamboo forest at home.
As a result, there are many fewer fields that can be cultivated, but fortunately he is a craftsman, and he can earn some money with his craft.
The depths of the bamboo forest are too gloomy, and there are many snakes and insects in this season, so everyone does not dare to rush in, but the bamboo shoots on the edge of the bamboo forest are enough for them to dig.
However, digging bamboo shoots also requires skill and effort, and they took turns digging two bags, and they were all sweating and their arms were sore.
"Alright, almost." Xiao Mengqiu was the first to give up: "I'm too tired, let's take these back is enough." ”
Yan Hong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although he also had strength, but he was really not good at farm work, but as a man, he was older than them, so he was embarrassed to say that he was tired first.
Now that someone said it, he also put down the hoe: "Then I'll pick these bamboo shoots back first, and you can go fishing by the pond, right?" ”
Xiao Hong also accompanied him back and went to the toilet by the way.
After carrying the two bags of bamboo shoots home, the two rested for a while before taking their fishing rods and buckets, gossiping, and then set off to the pond.
At this time, the little lotus in the pond shows its sharp corners.
Xiao Mengqiu was not interested in fishing, but she fell in love with the Yingshan red on the hillside not far away, and excitedly beckoned Xiao Hong and Xiao Fang to accompany her: "Wow, there are a lot of Yingshan red over there, let's go pick some?" ”
asked Xiao Fang again: "It's the kind of Yingshan red that can be eaten, right?" ”
Xiao Fang nodded: "Yes, the taste is a little sweet and sour." ”
Xiao Hong sat on the grass regardless of her image and waved her hand: "I've walked a lot today, and I'm almost exhausted, unless you carry me, don't want me to move." ”
