108 Sunflowers
At noon, Niu Dali's family gathered around to eat lunch, lunch was very simple, two side dishes, a plate of soy sauce stewed elbows, and a small pot of egg drop soup.
At the beginning, Li Xianglan was still a little frugal in cooking, either pasta or white rice with pickles, but as the family became better day by day, Li Xianglan gradually improved her food.
After all, Brother Dali is right, the eldest girl and the second girl have suffered with them for so many years, and now that the family has become better, naturally they can't let the two girls suffer anymore.
Niu Dali smiled and put an elbow in each of the bowls of the eldest girl and the second girl, and the eldest girl and the second girl said sweetly: "Thank you, Dad!"
Li Xianglan's eyes were full of tenderness, and she suddenly thought of something, and said, "Brother Dali, the firewood at home is running out." ”
"Well, after eating, I went up the hill to chop some firewood and came back. Niu nodded vigorously.
"Dad, I'm going too!" Erya quickly wiped the rice grains on the side of her little mouth, and said positively with her little face.
"You can't go, your homework hasn't been done yet!" Li Xianglan looked at Erya seriously.
The second girl pursed her lips and looked at Niu Dali pitifully.
The little appearance of praying, Niu Dali's heart softened, he coughed dryly, and persuaded: "Xianglan, chopping wood won't delay much time, and it won't affect Erya's homework!"
Erya's little eyes were shining, her hands shook Li Xianglan, and she said coquettishly: "Mother, my father and I will be back soon!
"Mother, you don't know your sister's temperament, if you don't let her go, how can she be in the mood to study!"
Er Ya suddenly winked at the eldest girl smartly, very cute.
"You're going to get used to her. Li Xianglan naturally understands her little daughter, who has the same temperament as a boy, she refuses to come back if she doesn't play dirty every day, if she goes on like this, how can she still be like a girl.
"Okay, mother, when I come back from chopping wood, I will study hard. Erya's little face swore and promised.
"That's what you said!" Li Xianglan said.
"Uh-huh. Er Ya nodded emphatically.
"That's okay!" Li Xianglan had no choice but to agree.
After lunch, Li Xianglan and the eldest girl cleaned up the table.
This time, the dishes on the table were eaten again, and Niu Dali didn't have time to rest for a while, so under the urging of Erya, he picked up the firewood knife, flat shoulder, and rope, and after saying a word to Li Xianglan, they went out together.
As soon as he went out, Erya was like a wild horse off the reins, chasing and running with Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei.
During this time, under the oppression of Li Xianglan, Erya studied and practiced calligraphy in the house all day long, where could Erya, who was originally a little wild, stand such boring things.
Maybe the eldest girl also saw her sister's boredom, so she helped the second girl speak.
Along the way, I met many villagers who went home for dinner, and they greeted Niu Dali when they saw him, and Niu Dali responded politely.
"Uncle Strong, wait!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind him.
Niu vigorously turned his head and saw He Da running from the village.
"Want Want!" Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei didn't know He Da, and suddenly grinned and barked at He Da with a mouth full of fangs.
"Xiao Huang, Xiao Hei don't scream. Erya crossed her waist with both hands, and said angrily: "Brother He is not a bad person, he can't be rude!"
Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei stopped screaming for a while, but their eyes stared at He Zheng vigilantly.
He was a bit of a surprise.
It was the first time he had seen such an obedient dog.
"Important, what's the matter with me?" Looking at the sweaty He Zheng, Niu Dali said curiously.
"Uncle, I want to go up the mountain with you to hunt!" said He Da plucked up his courage.
Niu Dali was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is your father willing to let you hunt?"
He Dazhong suddenly lowered his head and did not speak.
Seeing him like this, Niu Dali naturally knew that He Da's father and mother were unwilling, He Dazhong was the eldest son in the family, and most people attached great importance to the eldest son, so how could they risk their lives to go to the mountains to hunt.
Although it was 100% dangerous to go up the mountain with him, he couldn't force others to hunt with him, not to mention that he had a very lucrative job for him.
"Important, hunting is very dangerous, your father and mother refuse, naturally for your own good!" Niu Dali said.
"Uncle, I'm not afraid of danger! I want to make money, make a lot of money, so that my father and mother don't have to work so hard. He Da said with a firm gaze.
"Don't worry!" Niu Dali patted He Da on the shoulder, "You are still old, and there will be more things to make money in the future, but sometimes if you miss it, you will not be there!
He was confused for a while, he could understand the previous words, but he couldn't understand the latter words, what does it mean that if he misses it, there will be no more, let him think about it carefully?
"After the hunting thing is put aside, after a few days, you still decide to hunt with me, and then come to me!" Niu Dali didn't wait for He Da to come back to his senses, and shouted to Erya: "Erya, let's go up the mountain to chop wood!"
"Brother He, let's go!"
After Er Ya shouted, she left behind Niu Dali.
He thought for a long time and couldn't understand the meaning of Niu Dali's words, looked at Niu Dali's back, and muttered: "Does Uncle Dali mean that he wants me to convince my father?"
......
Most of the villagers cut firewood on the edge of Daluo Mountain, but because their homes ran out of firewood, the wet firewood was easy to smoke, and most of the dry firewood on the edge of Daluo Mountain was picked up by villagers in nearby villages.
So, Niu Dali took Erya to Daluo Mountain to chop wood.
"Erya, don't run far!" Looking at Erya, who was running around with Xiao Huang Xiaohei, Niu shouted vigorously.
"Yes, Dad. I'm not going to go far. Er Ya waved her little hand and replied.
Niu shook his head vigorously, however, he was not worried that Erya would encounter any poisonous snakes and beasts, when he entered Daluo Mountain, he had already spread his breath, you must know that beasts and poisonous snakes are very sensitive to danger, and this breath can ensure that within a radius of five hundred meters, beasts and poisonous snakes dare not approach.
Then, he picked up the firewood knife and skillfully chopped down some dry firewood.
I don't know how long it took, Erya ran over with a flower, and said happily with a little face: "Daddy, do you think this flower looks good?" I think my sister will like it." ”
At this moment, Niu Dali was looking down at the firewood, looking up at the flowers in Erya's hand, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Why does this flower look familiar?
The flower in Erya's hand is not a spirit grass, the shape resembles a wild chrysanthemum, but it is countless times larger than a wild chrysanthemum, the flowers are huge, the color is bright, and the petals are golden.
This looks...
Niu Dali had a flash of inspiration.
Eyes widened.
Isn't this a sunflower?!!
When the poet sees the sunflower, he will chant a poem, "The sunflower is like a branch to the sun, and the daylily forgets the worries and grows day by day." ”
When literary and artistic youths see sunflowers, they will look up at the sky at 45 degrees, and be amazed by the strength, positivity, and sunshine of sunflowers.
The laity see sunflowers.
Will only think.
Flavor.
Spiced.
Cream.
 ̄﹃ ̄
Well, Niu vigorously admits that he is a layman, and his first reaction when he thinks of sunflowers is.... Spiced melon seeds!
