Chapter 70 Selling snake gallbladder, Pangpoling!
"Brother Yang, was that the eldest sister-in-law or the second sister-in-law just now?"
"What?"
"Who is that, Jiang Xiaofan is not..."
"Don't talk nonsense."
……
Riverside.
Huang Canzheng and Song Daneng were talking about something. When they saw Chen Yang coming back, they immediately started gossiping.
Of course Chen Yang would not give him a good look.
Huang Can laughed dryly, "I think this one is pretty good now. It's gentle and pretty. I heard Uncle Deng Neng tell me that he's still a Chinese teacher. He's a good teacher. He's not like Jiang Xiaofan, who is violent and picks up people. Come to Qingtang, hey, I’m very satisfied!”
"What does it have to do with you?"
"Her surname is Huang, and my surname is Huang. We are the same family!"
"Pull me aside!"
Chen Yang He rolled his eyes at him, then turned to Song Daneng and said, "Uncle Daneng, have you arranged everything?"
"It's good, I'll wait for you!"
Song Daneng laughed twice, "It's getting late, hurry up and get in the car..."
The two of them jumped into the car with great skill.
Song Daneng stepped on the engine and twisted the accelerator a few times. The car jumped out with a roar, dragging a plume of black smoke.
In the carriage, the river breeze blows against my face, which is very refreshing.
“Take it.”
Huang Can took out a wad of banknotes from his backpack, counted the stack, and handed it to Chen Yang.
“What do you mean?”
Chen Yang looked at him in shock, why would he give me money for no reason?
"I went to the county town today and stopped by Taihetang to sell snake gallbladder. The total sold was 4,080 yuan. This is your share, 2,000, 80 is considered my travel expenses."
said Then, Huang Can put the money into Chen Yang's hand.
Chen Yang suddenly realized.
This guy is selling snake gallbladder.
However, he really didn’t want the money.
Then he stuffed the money back and said, "You sold it yourself. It has nothing to do with me. Just keep it for yourself."
"I sold the snake gall, but you killed the snake. Yeah, I, Huang Can, don't like to take advantage of others. Do you look down on me, or do you think I'm missing something?" Huang Can looked unhappy.
Chen Yang's face trembled.
To be honest, after hearing about Huang Can's life experience, he did feel a little sympathetic to him.
But he also knew that this guy had a strong self-esteem.
He stopped refusing and collected the money, "I'll take it, okay?"
A smile appeared on Huang Can's face, and he said, "Taihe Doctor Wang from the hospital told me that they are now buying two medicinal materials at high prices, centipedes and black ants. Centipedes can be sold for 5-8 yuan a piece, and black ants can be sold for 200 yuan a pound. I think it is very interesting. When will we Going into the mountains again? It just so happens that I can take some videos..."
Chen Yang raised his eyebrows, "We have just come out, and you want to go into the mountains, why can't you stay still for a few days?"
"You have to make money early."
Huang Can shrugged , "The centipedes in Centipede Ridge are overrun. Let's go there. It's easy to get a few thousand per person..."
Centipede Ridge?
Chen Yang couldn't help but think of the Polygonum multiflorum plant.
"As for black ants, I don't know about other places, but there must be a lot of ants on the slopes."
Huang Can said very excitedly, his eyes shining with the light of money.
"I have to accompany my grandfather to Pangpoling in the past two days. Let's talk about it when I get back." Chen Yang replied.
Huang Can didn't say anything and nodded, "That's okay. Uncle Deng Neng also wants to rest for two days. Then I will go back to Huangjiacun tomorrow and bury my grandfather's remains..."
“Want to help?”
In the village, neighbors need to help with weddings and weddings, especially weddings.
Huang Can waved his hand, "My grandfather's birth certificate was established when my father was still alive. There are no relatives there anymore. My sister and I went back to bury the bones and hang them up. Firecrackers, just go to my dad's grave and report it..."
Shengji, here in Linjiang County, refers to the grave.
This kind of thing should be considered a big event in the village, and a big banquet will inevitably be held. But the situation of Huang Can's family is special, and his hometown is in another village, so it is reasonable to do this.
Chen Yang didn't say much. If there was no banquet, there would be no need to attend to the ceremony.
……
——
The weather in June and August really changes at any time.
When we were in the town, the sun was still shining. As soon as we returned to the village, it started to rain lightly.
The dark clouds and mountains blended together, like a ball of light ink, blurred out into a blur of ink.
Mount Emei in the distance looks like a delicate girl, hidden in the curtain-like white mist.
The misty rain is hazy, and the water on the eaves is dripping.
He simply fried two side dishes and paired them with the braised pork and peanuts bought by Chen Yang. Chen Jingzhi poured half a cup of monkey wine and sat in front of the hall to have a drink.
The black tiger squatted at his feet, gnawing on the bones and meat on the ground, looking up from time to time, looking forward to the master's charity.
This wine is really good. After drinking half a glass last night, I felt that the pain in my body was relieved a lot, and I had a rare and peaceful sleep.
Is it because of the wine?
Or is it a reflection of the past?
The old man suddenly thought of such a question, his eyes fell on the loquat tree in the courtyard, his cloudy eyes were a little blurry.
It is said that when people are about to leave, they will think about those memories buried deep in their hearts.
Recently, there seems to be a lot of random things in my mind.
"Grandpa, what are you thinking about?"
Chen Yang sat down next to him with a bowl of rice.
"Nothing."
The old man came back to his senses and shook his head, "This loquat tree was planted by your great-grandmother back then. Your great-grandfather thought it was blocking the road, so he planted it several times. It’s time to chop it down, it’s been so many years, hey, things have changed and people have changed..."
The rain hits the loquats, making people sad.
Chen Yang also felt sad listening to it.
He has never met his great-great-grandfather, nor has he met his great-grandmother.
But think about it, decades ago, they lived in this yard, the same space, different time, they should be very happy, very happy.
Chen Yang took two bites of rice and said, "Grandpa, don't you want to go to Pangpoling? If it doesn't rain tomorrow, let's go tomorrow?"
"Well, okay."
Chen Jingzhi came to his senses and nodded, "While I can still move around."
"Grandpa, don't think so wildly, I've seen you in the past two days My complexion has obviously improved a lot. It seems that the doctor Liu introduced is quite capable..."
"Your grandpa is not that fragile. Hurry up and eat!"
"Listen! Can you tell me, how did you go to meet the girl today? How did the girl treat you? ”
"Okay, I'm going to attack, I must win."
"It's not a good idea, you have to be serious."

Pangpo Ridge.
It is not far from Daqi Mountain, and both belong to the remaining veins of Mount Emei.
Go towards Emei from the town, and after three to five miles, you will arrive at Pangpo Ridge.
This mountain is not as steep as Daqi Mountain, and the terrain is gentle, but it is also covered with forest and stretches for dozens of miles.
Pangpoling can be considered to have some origins. In terms of history, it can be traced back to the Three Kingdoms period.
It is recorded in the Linjiang County Chronicle that Pang Degong, a famous scholar from the Three Kingdoms, lived in seclusion in this mountain for a long time.
There is also Pangpo Cave on the mountain, which is where Pang Degong lived in seclusion, hence the name Pangpo Ridge.
