Happy birthday to book friend "Sasha"!

＝＝

Xu Guangling's plan for a large grass garden was launched.

This is not his home alone, more of it, in fact, it is still for the two old people.

If there are no two old men, with Xu Guangling's current level, he can stay anywhere, and there is no difference between the deep mountains and the downtown area.

He can live in the Antarctic and the North Pole, with the ice, near the equator, by the volcano, in the downtown area, and even through the relationship between the big guys, go through the back door, find a position as a teacher, live a stable life, and comfort his parents' original intentions.

In fact, there is another possibility, a relatively large possibility, that is, to travel all over the world, including domestic and foreign, and see the geography and landscape of the whole earth, and the humanistic world.

These are all possible.

And now, all those possibilities stay in the state of "possibility", and in the next period of time, one or two years, three or five years, not to rule out a longer period, his footprints will only be centered on this mountain.

After dinner, Xu Guangling told the two old men in detail about his thoughts and plans, and then asked the two old men, what arrangements do they want?

For example, he will transplant a lot of plants and trees, including medicinal herbs, what do the two old men want?

And all that.

This is a serious conversation, but there is no need to be serious at all, the atmosphere and rhythm of the conversation between the three of them are still the same as always, just like the gossip in the living room after class in the study before.

It's just that the location has been changed from the living room to the current mountain tent.

A bonfire was blazing at the door of the tent, and it was already the beginning of July, but it was still cold in the mountains, especially on the mountainside. The dew began to grow early, and above the campfire, far above, the stars were large and bright, and hung over the sky.

The three of them sat at the door of the tent, half in the tent and half outside.

"When I was a child, I lived in the countryside as a teacher, and some landscapes that were not landscapes are quite intriguing when I think about it now. ”

Mr. Zhang said slowly with the color of memory, "When the young man leaves his hometown and the eldest returns, it is difficult to change the hometown accent and his sideburns are declining. When the children don't know each other, they smile and ask where the guests are from. This is a poem written by Mr. He Zhizhang after resigning from his position in the DPRK and China and returning to his hometown, called two puppet books of returning to his hometown, and this is one of them. ”

"I have been away from my hometown for a long time, and I have been half-selling recently. Only the mirror lake in front of the door, the spring breeze does not change the old waves. Xu Guangling cooperated and made up for the second one for the teacher.

By the way, I also commented slightly:

"The spring breeze does not change the old waves, personnel are changeable, and the landscape is still the same, for He Lao, resign from the Beijing and return to the countryside and the countryside, on the one hand, visit the old half for the ghost, children do not know each other, on the other hand, even if there is the old, but also because there is a large difference in knowledge and insight between the two sides, and there is no way to talk deeply, stop at greetings, so the love of the landscape, is also conceivable. ”

Xu Guangling's words were also inspired by Mr. Zhang's previous days.

The two old men who are thousands of years apart in the times, in this regard, it should be said that there is still a little similarity.

Listening to Xu Guangling's words, Mr. Zhang nodded slightly.

Mr. Chen took it with a smile: "Lao He also has a poem about Jinghu, and what your teacher wants to mention at this moment must be that one." ”

"The clouds and mist of Jishan are gloomy, and the mirror water has no wind and waves. Mo Yanchun is full of fragrant flowers, and there is no middle-class lotus. This one?" asked Xu Guangling with a little inquiry.

"Exactly!" Mr. Chen smiled and clapped his hands, "When I was with your teacher, my hometown was more than a hundred miles apart, but I have been to his hometown, there is no big water, but there is a lot of small water. ”

Don't have the middle stream to pick the lotus, the dragon is the ling, the so-called two corners for the water, the four corners for the water, in fact, there is a kind of round shell without a corner of the waterling.

Xu Guangling has eaten all of these three, and he feels the same, and he can't tell the specific difference. But this was a long time ago, an ordinary experience in his life. If you taste it now, of course, you can clearly distinguish the similarities and differences between the three.

And even if he didn't taste it, according to the general summary of many plant traits, Xu Guangling could also know that it was a good dual-purpose plant for food therapy.

In addition, this is the case with water chestnuts, and the same is true for lotus roots.

Following Mr. Chen's words, seeing that the teacher expressed his affirmation, Xu Guangling said: "Okay, let's put the two things of Ling and Lotus on the list first." ”

"To do this, we need to open up some paddy fields, as well as ponds, etc. In addition, some loaches, yellow eels, crabs, fish and shrimp and so on?"

"The loach stewed tofu is good, you can make your own decisions about the rest, arrange it at will, Lao Chen and I don't have any special preferences in this regard. Mr. Zhang said.

"Hmm. Xu Guangling nodded, and then said with a smile: "So, a stone mill for grinding tofu is also needed?"

Thinking of the two old men's usual breakfast, tofu brain vegetarian buns, Xu Guangling said again: "There is a stone mill, and we can also make soy milk and tofu brain ourselves in the future, which must be better than the one you eat on the edge of the park, teacher, much, much better." ”

"Your Master Chen used to work as a stonemason for a while, and he really worked as a stone mill. I don't know if his craftsmanship has become unfamiliar over the years. ”

The two old men also laughed, and then Mr. Zhang said, "We two old guys are also good at grinding. You can't do this kind of thing when you're young, and after breakfast, the two of us will be responsible for grinding, and you will be responsible for doing it. ”

"To make tofu, you have to have beans. Xu Guangling said, "I know that there are soybeans and black beans, and black beans seem to be divided into two types: small black beans and large black beans, I don't know if there are more." Teacher, Mr. Chen, which one do you like?"

"Just soybeans and small black beans, grow some of both. Mr. Zhang said, "In addition, the pea seedlings are also good." ”

That's three kinds of beans to be planted.

Speaking of beans, we talked about the five grains, millet, millet, wheat, soybean, rice (hemp), southern rice and northern hemp, and among these five grains, the "soybean" is the bean.

Xu Guangling doesn't know much about this aspect, at most he can only say that he knows a little about it, and the books he read in the past few years are certainly very miscellaneous, but they are far from being all-encompassing.

At this moment, the two old men quoted the classics and popularized them for him, and by the way, they also popularized the ecological evolution of ancient planting and picking, from "Qingqing Garden Zhongkui" to "Changge Huai Caiwei", starting from the pre-Qin Dynasty, all the way down.

If Xu Guangling sorted out the descriptions of the two old men a little, he could publish "The Evolution of China's Dining Table in the Past 2,000 Years".

And in this description, many, many plants were added one after another.
