Moving things home, Zhang Yaohua began to assemble them.

Whether it is his computer desk or Zhang Yuanhang's desk, it is not a whole piece.

For example, Zhang Yaohua's computer desk is also equipped with bookshelves on one side, which can put books and the like.

For this reason, my mother also nagged a few words.

Obviously, they don't like this style of table very much, they don't think it's strong, it's not practical, etc., anyway, it's just picking, it's not good, that's not good.

Zhang Yaohua's ears automatically block sound.

To tell the truth, if it weren't for the fear that his mother would overreact, he would even want to replace the bed in his room.

Now I sleep on the wooden bed of twenty or thirty years ago, the kind with a mosquito net frame on top, and a mattress on the bed board. In the first two days when I came back, I didn't get used to it for a while, and I lay down with a sore back.

And people who are used to lying on a hard bed may also not be able to sleep and feel uncomfortable when they suddenly sleep on the mattress.

It is only in winter that they spread another quilt on the mat at home.

When I was a child, I used to lay straw in winter. No one in the village should be doing that now.

……

Before you know it, it's the weekend.

Zhang Yaowei wants to accompany his wife back to his parents' house, which is not far, it is in the next city, an hour or two by car.

My mother attaches great importance to this, after all, the daughter-in-law is just such a daughter-in-law for the time being, she took out some dry goods from the family and asked Zhang Yaowei to bring them to her in-laws to taste.

"Mom! Enough, I haven't finished the dried fish I brought last time. Seeing that the trunk was stuffed, Ah Zhen said helplessly.

"If you eat it slowly, it won't spoil right away, what are you afraid of? By the way, and scallops, wait a minute. The old mother went back into the house.

Zhang Yaohua threw Zhang Yuanhang's schoolbag into the car.

Want to skip your homework? Impossible.

"Remember to do your homework, and when you come back, Uncle will check it."

Zhang Yuanhang, who was still full of excitement, collapsed in an instant.

He hid his schoolbag, but he was still found by his uncle.

"Don't worry, big brother, I will supervise him." Ah Zhen hurriedly said.

Soon, they were on their way.

Without Zhang Yaowei, Zhang Yaohua will definitely not go to sea, stay at home, and help his mother do other work, such as pulling peanuts. There are two fields of peanuts planted at home, and there are not many.

"Not a variety of points? Won't you squeeze oil this year? Zhang Yaohua asked.

It's just that, and the oil is very reluctant!

Although their family eats more lard, peanut oil is not less, and dozens of catties of peanut oil are fried every year. The rest of the village is similar, most of them still eat lard.

Rumors that lard is unhealthy are weaker in the countryside.

Although the villagers have a low level of education, they are not fools. Our ancestors have been eating lard for generations, and there are not a few who live to be over 80 years old, so why is it not healthy?

The lard is cheap, and the stir-fry is still very fragrant, so why not eat it?

"If you don't fry it, you won't finish it." Mom replied while plucking peanuts.

There's a plastic bucket at home! It was brought back by Ah Zhen's mother's family. The in-laws plant a lot every year, this time Zhang Yaowei sent his wife back, and he couldn't help pull peanuts for a day or two?

Zhang Yaohua picked a three-room peanut and peeled it off, and put the peanut meat in his mouth.

"Eat less, if you want to eat, cook a little more tonight."

If you eat too much raw, you will have diarrhea easily.

Suddenly, Zhang Yaohua jumped up.

"What?" Mom looked over.

"Scared me, it's a four-legged snake."

Although the four-legged snake also has the word "snake", it is not a snake, that is, a gecko that is one size larger. They are not poisonous, they do not bite people, they belong to beneficial beasts, Zhang Yaohua has not seen this animal for a long time.

They are agile and generally active during the day, often in and out of the grass, rock piles and roadsides, and when disturbed, they quickly flee to nearby hiding places and take cover.

Also called skinks in some places, their tails fall off immediately after being clipped, but they can still live normally and gradually grow new tails over time. This physiological phenomenon is called "regeneration".

Most four-legged snakes feed only on insects or their larvae, but larger skinks also feed on small vertebrates or some plants.

In the past, there were many places in the countryside, and you could see them almost every day. Over the years, although Zhang Yaohua has rarely returned, he also clearly feels that this creature is much rarer.

Zhang Yaohua guessed that it was mainly because of pesticides, right?

Of course, there are also reasons for human catches, after all, the four-legged snake is also a precious Chinese medicine.

Zhang's mother sighed, her eldest son was too afraid of snakes.

Even a four-legged snake can scare him into weakness, why is he so daring?

It stands to reason that he shouldn't, and I haven't seen him afraid of yellow eels, moray eels and the like, obviously the appearance is a little similar, but he is afraid of snakes, so I really don't understand.

"What are you afraid of?"

Other children, everyone is catching and playing.

"It almost crawled to my instep." Zhang Yaohua said.

Zhang's father shook the peanut seedlings in his hand, picked off two broken ones, and put them on the dung basket.

"I can't continue planting here next year, there are many insect pests."

Because I eat it myself, I don't use pesticides much, so it is inevitable that there will be many insects.

The common people have their own set of theories and experiences in farming, and they also know that a piece of land cannot always grow the same grain, but must be cultivated in rotation.

"There are no insects in the lower Sudan red, and now they are not sold." Mom said.

Zhang Yaohua told her: "Sudan dyes are not useful!" The country has banned it, and that thing is carcinogenic. ”

Sudan dye is a red dye that is used to add color to solvents, oils, waxes, gasoline, and to add color to shoes, floors, etc. It was once used as a food additive.

In rural areas, some farmers who grow peanuts and sweet potatoes will also put some Sudan dyes, which can medicine insects.

Later, it was revealed that it could cause cancer, and many countries banned Sudan dyes.

Father Zhang nodded: "I've heard that some people used to grow sweet potatoes with Sudan dyes, but later, except for a child who was studying in other places, everyone else in the family was found to have cancer, miserable!" ”

Cancer is a terminal disease recognized by modern medicine, and everyone talks about cancer discoloration, even rural people who have never seen it understand that if they have that kind of disease, they will basically wait for death, and it is a waste of money to send them to the hospital.

So, how can anyone dare to use Sudan dyes?

There were still folded ear roots growing on the ridge, but Zhang Yaohua ignored it.

The root of the folded ear is Houttuynia cordata, and those who love it love it are crazy, and those who don't like it are disgusted when they look at it.

Zhang Yaohua is just a person who can't eat the root of the ear, the taste is so indescribable, it is indescribable, take a bite, the taste goes straight to the heavenly spirit cover, no joke.

If he wants to become the richest man in the world, he will definitely consider asking someone to strip off all the folded ear roots and coriander. If you can, count durians.

However, Zhang Yaohua turned a blind eye, which does not mean that others are the same.

His mother dug it up with a hoe.

Zhang Yaohua and his old son looked at each other, and they were silent, and the two fathers and sons were not interested in each other.
