Chapter 151 Crossing the River
"Then you still have to be careful."
"Okay. Shu Yi, you are right, there is nothing wrong with being careful."
Inside and Out After searching around, no trace of the snake was found. At this time, Yang He followed Zhang Xinyi came down together, and took Guan Tingting with him: "I remember there is a big pot down there, right..."
Zhou Zhi quickly gave Yang He a wink, and the two of them actually didn't agree on this matter in private. There was a lot of work, but among the girls, Ye Xin was the only one who felt no pressure.
Both Zhang Xinyi and Jiang Shuyi once said that they cannot accept things like turtles, frogs, and snakes appearing on the dining table, even if they are farmed, let alone wild.
People's recipes are probably a weird cognition, and everyone's range is different.
In Zhou Zhi’s view, since sea cucumbers that are coelenterates can be eaten, snails and clams that are molluscs can be eaten, arthropods such as shrimps and crabs can be eaten, and fish can be eaten, then the biological classification is more complicated than these. Why can't advanced amphibians and reptiles be eaten, but why do they have to make a direct jump to birds and mammals?
Of course, it would be foolish to discuss this with the girls, so the topic turned into a serious environmental issue - how to release this snake.
“If you want to release snakes, it’s best to have a tower...”
"Then follow me!" Yang He said happily: "No one has ever been to my house to play. Let's go to the White Tower to release snakes first, and then go to my house to play."
"But...but it's almost the end of the term... ..." Jiang Shuyi felt bad again.
"The way of civil and military affairs is to relax one by one." Zhou Zhi said: "Anyway, we have almost completed the review. It is not good if the string is too tight. Relax, we will come back tomorrow morning."
"Ah? You still want to spend the night?" Jiang Shu Yi was even more worried: "My parents are afraid..."
"I will accompany you to tell them." Zhou Zhi said, "Xinyi, please call Mrs. Zhao, and then we will go to school in a while and call Zhang Lu. , Lao Mu and Xinxin ”
"Yeah." Zhang Xinyi was very strictly controlled by his parents before and rarely had the opportunity to play like this. But since he and Zhou Zhi went to Fubao, it seems that Mrs. Zhao has relaxed the regulations in this area. At least, as long as Zhang Xinyi tells his parents "Mom, Zhou Zhi asked me to go," then Mrs. Zhao wouldn't say anything else.
“Wait a minute!” Guan Tingting quit: “Brother Xiuzi, we agreed to make a pigeon cage! We agreed not to let the pigeons sleep in the open!”
“Ah yes!” Zhou Zhi patted her. Forehead: "Big head, monk, I’ll leave this matter to you two, finish it before noon!”
During this period, Zhou Zhi and Zhang Lu escorted Jiang Shuyi to study in the evening, and Zhou Zhi’s role in guiding Jiang Shuyi, Jiang Shuyi Dad Jiang and Mom are actually very relieved about Zhou Zhi.
Yang He is an honest child, so when he heard that he was going to Yang He’s house, Jiang’s father and mother Jiang just told Jiang Shuyi to be polite when going to other people’s homes and bring an extra thick coat for the night. Nothing more was said.
Even Jiang Shuyi found it unbelievable that Zhou Zhi was so persuasive to her parents. She thought it was basically hopeless, but her parents agreed so easily.
After happily packing their things, the two went to Zhang Lu's home to look for him.
Zhang Lu’s father has been out on the boat for a long time, and he comes home basically once a year. Zhang Lu’s mother basically doesn’t care about him. When she heard that she was going to Baimi Township to climb the White Pagoda, she didn’t even say anything. You don’t need to bring anything with you. As a boy, if you don’t wash your face and brush your teeth for a day, what does it matter?
The same is true for Mu Daman. Yes, this nickname has been brought to school from Mu Ruyun's home by Zhou Zhi.
There is also Ye Xin, the daughter of a wealthy family heard that Yang He was the real wealthy family. She had long said that she wanted to see it, and this time her wish was fulfilled.
This invitation was Jiang Shuyi, Ye Xin, Zhang Xinyi, Guan Tingting, Zhou Zhi, Mu Ruyun, Zhang Lu, Su Datou, plus Yang and himself, it was enough to fill the table.
Zhou Zhi is not worried about Yang He’s family’s objections. Now Yang He basically does not need his brother and sister-in-law to bear the cost of studying, and he can often subsidize the family. The minor conflicts caused by financial pressure have basically been resolved. Complete solution.
But now Yang He still has to bring something with him every time he goes back, and this time is of course no exception.
Zhou Zhi hasn’t visited Lao Yangtou and Yang Hema for a long time. In fact, he misses them very much and has carefully prepared gifts for them. Lao Yangtou had six bottles of Laojiao Toqu. Zhou Zhi originally wanted to prepare a bottle of special Qu, but Yang He stopped him, saying that his father couldn't drink a lot of good wine, so he might as well win by quantity.
Yang and his mother are real people. Instead of preparing gifts, they would go to Baimi Farm and buy some chickens and ducks to take back. She would be happier.
Besides this, there is another important matter, which is to bring back the beater that Yang and his eldest brother entrusted to Zhou Zhiding.
The beater is an important piece of equipment, and it was actually Zhou Zhi’s idea for Yang and his eldest brother. Jiachuan people like to eat tofu pudding, konjac, and glutinous rice flour balls, so if there is a beater in the countryside, , business will actually be very good.
In addition, Jiang Shuyi's father, Jiang Qiao, worked for the Agricultural Machinery Bureau, so Zhou Zhi took this matter as an opportunity to get close to Jiang's father.
Dad Jiang also carefully taught Zhou Zhi how to maintain the machine. His attitude was very serious and it took...well, five full class hours.
Despite its small size, this machine is actually very heavy. Fortunately, there are many friends on this trip.
The Yangtze River, friends see each other almost every day, but it was the first time for Ye Xin and Zhang Xinyi to cross it by boat.
Jiang Shuyi occasionally takes a boat back to Rongshan, but the number of times is not as high as Zhou Zhi watching the eldest lady.
Because the boat was really slow, Jiang Shuyi was anxious to go back to see her parents and couldn't wait any longer.
The high water season is fast, but at that time the floods are surging, which is very scary.
As for Zhou Zhi, in addition to liking the scenery along the river, he also likes the saozi noodles sold on the boat. This is the fundamental reason why he likes to ride on the boat.
But they are only available on boats traveling along the river, and they are not sold on ferries.
It was already early winter, the river water was very clear, and the river surface had shrunk to its narrowest point. The small motor boat rushed to the other side and it didn’t take long to reach the other side.
Even for a short period of time, Ye Xin and Zhang Xinyi were very excited.
Compared with the docks in the county town on the other side, the Baimi Township Pier has completely different styles. It is almost an original river beach. Zhou Zhi didn’t bother to walk on the springboard and jumped directly from the bow of the boat to the natural stone steps on the riverside. I was scolded by the boatman who was lowering the anchor rod.
There is a road next to the natural dock, which is used for car ferries. After the road leaves the river beach, it will connect to an old gravel road from Manzhou to Yuzhou.
There was a restaurant on the roadside. Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "I won't let you have lunch because we have to eat lunch here."
This restaurant is very simple, with only two rooms with earthen walls. There is a big tiled hut outside the hut. Under the tiled hut are several large and small tables, and there is an earthen stove between the tiled hut and the thatched hut.
On the earth stove are huge earthen pots, with cans of chicken soup inside.
The boss lady came over: "You are here to visit the White Tower, right? What can you eat?"
Zhou Zhi said: “You have to have three bowls of chicken soup first, then a bowl of vermicelli and a bowl of chicken vegetables.” Bake it until white, add the garlic sprouts to the pot, shred the pork with yellow chives, and stir-fry the cabbage with chicken fat residue. "
The kid from the city is a big deal! The landlady suddenly became very enthusiastic: "First, give each of the students a bowl of sugar rice soup, and you can add pickles as you like. Don't worry, we will order and serve the food very quickly!"
