Chapter 191
Five or six aunts and sisters came to the edge of the pond with baskets and baskets. Seeing that Bian Rui and the others were already in the pond, they began to frown on their bodies and lean on them.
"Xiao Shijiu, I didn't expect you to arrive first." Aunt Twelve made two sets of water-covered pants, carefully touched the pond and tried the pond mud, and asked Bian Rui while tying her feet into the pond.
Bian Rui straightened his body and smiled at his aunt, "We are almost finished picking."
"So quickly?" The fourteenth aunt stretched her head in surprise and looked at the basket next to Bian Rui: "It's only a few, just three bowls of porridge. You won't pick some for your grandparents and your grandparents after picking it?"
"The fifth master and the fifth grandma don't like to eat these things. The older generation only has the fifth master and the fifth aunt, but I didn't like to eat them. I used to eat too much," said Aunt Twelve with a smile.
"Where is the tenth brother and tenth sister-in-law?"
Bian Rui smiled and said, "Then I'll pick more."
"Pick more, this year, there is probably no one to eat the chicken head rice in this pond," Aunt Thirteen sighed and said.
Chicken-head rice is mainly difficult to peel, and all of them have to be peeled by hand. One person is familiar with it for four or five kilograms a day. This is the most, usually only three or two kilograms. The chicken-head rice sold on the market costs about 100 yuan per kilogram, but the chicken-head rice tastes nothing.
Fresh chicken head rice has a faint fragrance. After a long time of leaving the water, the fragrance will disappear. As long as the chicken head rice is overnight, the taste will be much worse, let alone shipped to the market. It is best to pick it in the morning and peel it in the afternoon and cook it, so that the faint fragrance can be preserved.
"The main thing is that it's too troublesome, and let alone the city's people, even the children in the village don't like eating this thing very much. If we don't touch the two children in our family, it doesn't taste like chewing potato residue..." said the fifth sister-in-law who had just gone to the pond.
Bian Rui pricked his ears and listened to his aunt and sister-in-law chatting, and said a few useless gossips from time to time.
Yan Lan is not even as good as Bian Rui. She used to be a dancer and had a big difference between her aunt and sister-in-law and couldn't even talk together, so she quickly felt that the current scene was a bit awkward.
Bian Rui lowered his head and picked the chicken head rice without noticing the embarrassment on his girlfriend's face. Fortunately, Aunt Twelve noticed it.
"Hey, from the Little Nineteenth Family," Aunt Twelve called out Yan Lan.
Yan Lan didn't understand it all at once, waiting for her to understand that when she called herself, her face kept blushing to her neck. In the countryside, the names of women are generally ranked. Elders use the words of elders, and the peers are uncles, uncles, and younger generations are like this. Bian Rui ranks nineteenth, and the twelfth aunt calls Yan Lan the 19th family, which is simple and clear!
However, some feminist people have objections to this title, thinking that women have no status to rely on men or something. Fortunately, the villagers are not idle to these feminists, so this title is just a title for everyone.
"Don't call me that, you should call me Yan Lan, or Xiao Yan," Yan Lan said immediately.
Aunt Twelve smiled and said, "It's going to happen sooner or later!"
Yan Lan didn't know what to say, so she had to laugh dryly.
Aunt Twelve asked, "Xiaoyan, when will your house get good? I think the yard is pretty good. When your house is finished, if the price is right, let your gardener show us?"
After hearing this, Aunt Fourteen said directly: "Sister-in-law, that's not cheap. Our head asked, "A yard is a number! There is Mingzhu designer over there, and I heard that he has been abroad."
After saying that, he stretched out a slap and shook it in the air.
"No way, it's so expensive?" Aunt Twelve was stunned for a moment. Even if it was a little more expensive, it would only cost 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. Who knew that this number was several times what she had expected before.
"It's really that expensive?" Aunt Twelve made some confirmation with Yan Lan.
Yan Lan said politely: "Why do I ask him to take a look at your yard?"
The designer is Yan Lan's best friend. He grew up in the same yard. Mr. Yan got along well with the girl's father when he was working on a team. Later, the two became good friends. He heard that Mr. Yan wanted to design a small yard. This volunteered to come over and designed the small yard in one or two days.
Aunt Twelve immediately waved her hand and said, "This is not possible, this is not possible! It is too expensive. If I nod, your Uncle Twelve will have to beat me."
Even if the villagers are brothers, this matter is very clear. Everyone knows where the boundary between them is, and what are the rules for getting along with others, so that they will naturally get harmonious.
"It's okay," Yan Lan said.
The new building of Mr. Yan’s house is quite large, and it can be said that it is only a little smaller than the Bian Rui family. It is the second largest house in the village. The old man did not buy many houses, but started to do things in the yard, making it like a garden.
When Bian Rui saw that the design drawing could be built as it was, it would be very exciting. It was the small garden in the south of the Yangtze River, which brought in live water and built a small pavilion. It had mountains and waters, and the scenery in the paintings was far less than that of the famous Su-style gardens, but it was very outstanding in ordinary people's courtyards.
The yard is outstanding, but Bian Rui has to do some things, such as ancient trees. Fortunately, the house is under Bian Rui's name, and it is only a transfer from the village to collect money, and it will be a matter of ten years later. Bian Rui has included all the wood in the yard and has also folded two tangled ancient trees in it.
"It's really not possible!"
Aunt Fourteen said, "Xiaoyan, forget it, your Aunt Twelve is not polite to you."
"By the way, why do I always see your mother with those two bears by her? Go back and tell your mother that this bear is too little. It's not enough to feed them all day long, and it's too much money." Aunt Fourteen immediately changed the topic.
When it was Yan Lan's turn to sigh: "I think about it, but I can't persuade you. Not only I can't even help my father, but my mother likes two bears."
The old lady likes two bears, which is really famous in the village. In fact, this is not difficult to understand. The old lady is old and has no grandchildren, and her daughter is so busy that she is almost at home. Her wife holds a magnifying glass and holds a painting and sits on for a long time. She doesn’t even have anyone to say, let alone people who relieve loneliness.
Now Xiong Da and Xiong Er have just filled this vacancy. The key is that the two bears are so popular. The old lady went to the vegetable garden to choose vegetables in the morning. The two bears took turns to hold a basket for her. The old lady sat for a while, and the two bears had to hold a kettle for her. In short, in the eyes of the old lady, these two grandsons were fine except not being able to speak.
"Since Xiong Er gave her a piece of honey that was long with her fingers, my mother has loved them even more," Yan Lan said.
"What honey?" Aunt Twelve suddenly felt gossipy.
Listening to Yan Lan telling the little story of honey, Aunt Fourteen sighed and said, "That's not surprising. The two bears really like her. The bears can think of people when they take out honey, so there is nothing to say about this relationship."
Honey is fate for bears. Not to mention being alone, even their own children, bears may not be willing to give them. Now they can bring back the finger-sized honey to Old Lady Yu, which proves that the bear has relied on her to the extreme.
Bian Rui had heard this story, which happened two days ago. That is, two days ago, when the two bears were having a meal, they had new equipment - Fan Duzi.
As a group of women chatted like this, Bian Rui had already cut a lot of chicken head rice, and felt that it was almost done, so Bian Rui was not ready to cut it.
"Let's go, go back and peel the chicken head rice. Aunts and sisters-in-law, you can cut it slowly," said Bian Rui.
"Xiao Shijiu, give me your bamboo knife, my old bamboo knife broke out."
"Okay, please keep it for use, I don't need it anymore." Bian Rui smiled and threw the bamboo knife in his hand towards his sister-in-law who was talking.
After saying goodbye to his sister-in-law and aunts, Bian Rui and the others rode home on the little lamb. Yan Lan rode a bicycle and Bian Rui sat behind him carrying most of the basket of chicken head rice.
Jitoumi Tangzi is a little distance from the village. It takes you to pass a small lake to return to the village and drive through a lake embankment of about one mile.
When Bian Rui and the others arrived on the lake's causeway, they saw the fun in the lake. A group of furry children kept tossing in the water, not afraid of the scorching sun, and they all looked like they were from Africa. Adults in their twenties and thirties were under the shade of trees, either lying on big tires or on the swimming rings they bought.
As for the embankment, there are a group of old men and ladies playing mahjong or chess under the shade of trees. If it is too hot, they will cool down in the water and continue to play after they come up. At this time, the work in the field cannot be done every day. If you are busy uphill for a day, you will die.
Now it is in the afternoon, so it is not easy to stay in the village. The empty and windy lake embankment is the best place to cool off, not to mention that you can take a bath when it is hot. Therefore, most of the old and young men in the village gather here to cool off.
When he was about to leave the road leading directly to the village on the lake, Bian Rui asked Yan Lan to stop the car and stand by the river with a basket.
Yan Lan asked curiously: "What are you looking at?"
"I'm looking at Dai Niu." After Bian Rui said this, he found Dai Niu.
The water by the lake is not deep, and even if it is deep, it is easy to see the bottom of the small lake because of the excellent water quality of four or five meters.
Dainiu was holding his breath in the water at this time. Next to Dainiu were two pony, and these two guys were holding his breath in the water like Dainiu.
"You two stupid guys, Dai Niu is a buffalo, can you two still be a seahorse?" Bian Rui felt that the whole family was not as good as the IQ fee, so if you take a bath, do you compare your breath with the buffalo? Do you think you are also a buffalo? Are you stupid?
After Bian Rui said that, he looked at the three things under the water. After looking at them for a while, Bian Rui became surprised because the two pony were actually held in the water for half a minute. This was Bian Rui's view. Bian Rui didn't know how long it took before.
After half a minute of looking at the watch, the two pony stretched their heads out of the lake, sniffed twice and then sank again.
"I'll go, you two want to go to heaven," said Bian Rui.
