Chapter 190 Accident
Wang Susu introduced the two to each other.
At this time, in order not to disturb their conversation and reminisce, Wang Qingwen led his family into the room first.
Niu Xiaoling looked at Chen Ling, still surprised. She pulled Wang Susu and said, "He is so young, Susu."
"He is not young, he is already twenty-three. He’s two years older than us.”
Wang Susu smiled.
"Really? It doesn't look like it."
Niu Xiaoling looked at Chen Ling again and felt that the man married by her old classmate was ordinary at first glance, nothing special. place.
Now take a closer look, and you will find that he has a very good temperament, with gentle eyes and a smiling face, which makes it easy for people to feel close to him.
It seems that it is this gentleness that makes people ignore his sunny and handsome appearance...
But it is indeed still too young.
Then he looked at Wang Susu and said, "You look young. Compared with when we were in high school, except that you are a little whiter and a little fatter, there is no change."
At this point, Then he laughed: "Susu, it seems that you have married into a good family."
"All good families are farmers."
Wang Susu said truthfully .
Niu Xiaoling didn't believe it. She felt that the young couple had fair skin and tender skin. They didn't look like people who often worked in the fields. She only thought that Wang Susu was being modest.
But she didn’t say anything more, and took the two of them to the room inside to meet another old classmate.
Chen Ling didn't want to follow, but she pulled her over.
Arrived at the room, Niu Xiaoling opened the door and called: "Yuhua, Yuhua, look who I met..."
In the room, there was a man and a woman sitting at the table. Very close to talking.
Hearing Niu Xiaoling's shout, he stood up quickly.
Then I saw Chen Ling and Wang Susu walking in behind Niu Xiaoling.
The woman was obviously stunned for a moment and failed to recognize Wang Susu immediately.
Then he looked carefully for several times, and then asked in the same uncertain tone as Niu Xiaoling before: "Wang Susu?"
"It's me, Yuhua."
Wang Susu stepped forward happily, "I haven't seen you for several years. If Xiaoling hadn't stopped me just now, I don't know when I would see you again."
"It's really you, Susu, you You've become so beautiful now that I don't even dare to recognize you."
Xiang Yuhua also stepped forward to hold Wang Susu's hand, looked up and down, and sighed in surprise.
This man named Xiang Yuhua is not tall, much shorter than Wang Susu and Niu Xiaoling. He may not be 1.6 meters tall. He has short hair, but his appearance is very good, with an oval face and willow eyebrows. A few small freckles gave her a unique smile.
In addition, like Niu Xiaoling, she also looks several years older than her actual age. In fact, she is about the same age as Wang Susu, only twenty or twenty-one years old.
The three women chatted animatedly.
Of course I didn’t forget to introduce the two men.
The young man next to Xiang Yuhua is a tall and thin man with a long face and glasses. He is a native of Fenglei Town. His name is Wei Jun. He is responsible for family planning work in the town government. It is said that his family is also quite rich. Introduction Shi had been smiling reservedly, and when facing Chen Ling, he just nodded lightly and said nothing more.
When Xiang Yuhua and Xiang Yuhua started to praise Wang Susu for a good marriage.
The young man named Wei Jun looked at Chen Ling in obvious surprise.
Because the appearance and temperament of Chen Ling and Wang Susu do not look like people who have been working with crops in farmland for a long time.
But the clothes look very ordinary.
He was a little unsure.
Then I found an opportunity to come over, pass the cigarette and talk.
After he found out what Chen Ling did, he quickly lost interest and his words became casual.
On the other side, the three women finished talking about the past and learned about their current status.
Niu Xiaoling and Niu Xiaoling thought Wang Susu was being modest, but they didn't expect that she actually married an ordinary person.
And there are no parents-in-law, and the husband has no brothers or sisters, he is just a lonely person.
I heard that she is pregnant again now. This guy will not even have anyone to help take care of the baby when the baby is born. Thinking about it, it will be difficult.
The two women completely lost their previous envy and enthusiasm, and there was even pity in their tone.
There is also a lot of preaching in the words.
Chen Ling noticed this and felt slightly funny.
Of course I don’t care much, and I have no intention of explaining anything.
He just continued chatting with Wei Jun next to him.
After a while, when the food was served in this room, he and Wang Susu stood up and left, without accepting any invitation to stay.
"Hey, I didn't expect that Wang Susu, who was in such good conditions, would marry into such a family and marry so far away..."
After they went out, the man named Xiang Yuhua sighed.
"That's right. She studied well in high school and was good-looking. Everyone thought she could marry a rich family. Even the teacher said she could marry a high official..."
Niu Xiaoling also sighed.
Then he added: "But she is indeed very good-looking now. She is even prettier and younger than she was in high school. It's really strange."
"What's weird? Is it useful to look good? No matter how good you look, it's not as good as marrying well."
Xiang Yuhua rolled his eyes and said to Niu Xiaoling: "You should look carefully at your husband's family and ask more. , don’t let the matchmaker fool you.”
“Yes, the matchmaker has many bad intentions.”
“In the end, Yuhua is the most discerning in our class, so you can find it yourself. What a good husband, Wei Jun is so capable, he will soon become the director."
Niu Xiaoling praised.
"Come on, how can he be so capable..."
Xiang Yuhua glanced at Wei Jun quietly, and the two of them smiled very reservedly.
Obviously everyone was praised to the point of being beautiful.
……
“I went to meet my old classmates, how do you feel?”
Back in the room where they ate, Wang Qingwen asked first.
“Not very good.”
Wang Susu muttered in a low voice, a little unhappy.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you happy after meeting an old classmate?"
Gao Xiulan wondered.
As he spoke, he looked at Chen Ling with questioning eyes.
However, before Chen Ling could say anything, Wang Susu said in a low voice: "I'm not unhappy, I just feel that the two classmates are a little different from before."
"Oh, it's different. That’s normal.”
Chen Ling said with a smile: “Now that we are at the age of starting a family, the things we consider must be different from those when we were in school...”
As he said this, he said to his father-in-law. The man and the mother-in-law gave a brief explanation.
When Wang Susu met her old classmates, she wanted to happily talk about some interesting things from her school days, sit down and reminisce about the past, and miss the good times in school.
Unexpectedly, people didn’t reminisce with her much, but instead cared about how she was doing.
I am envious and envious of her when she is living a normal life, but I feel that she is not marrying well.
It made her mood bad.
She is not a showy person, and it is not easy to explain.
"Silly girl, we know best whether we are having a good life or not. Why are we so sulky?"
Gao Xiulan consoled her.
This is nothing to her.
"I'm not angry, it's just that the three of us had a good relationship before. My classmates bullied me and asked me to help wash dishes and fetch water. It was the two of them who helped me..."
Wang Susu A bit lost.
Good people can be deceived by others, and sometimes the kinder and more upright the people are, the more likely they are to suffer.
She was like this when she was in school. Fortunately, two classmates helped her.
Unfortunately, things are different now.
"Well, it seems that there is a sadly thick barrier between you and the two of them."
Chen Ling shook his head and said.
Wang Susu, who was getting more and more unhappy as she talked, was stunned when she heard this, then burst out laughing, and glared at Chen Ling in shame: "Fuck you."
"Okay. It’s hard for our family to sit down and have a meal together like this. What are we talking about? We are so happy..."
"Otherwise Xiaotongtong and the others will laugh at you. You are an aunt. I'm almost crying."
Seeing his wife smile, Chen Ling also laughed and comforted her.
The father-in-law, mother-in-law and others looked at each other, all confused.
They were also prepared to give a few more words of advice.
Is this good?
They couldn’t understand what the thick barrier was.
Why is it okay to say this?
They couldn’t figure it out.
Wang Qingwen and his wife knew that this was what Mr. Lu Xun said.
But I don’t know why Wang Susu laughed when she heard this.
It’s normal not to know. It was originally because Wang Susu was inconvenient after being pregnant, so Chen Ling always kept mumbling about it in bed before going to bed. When she first said it, it was nothing, but the more she talked about it, the happier she became.
Only the two of them can understand the fun.
But at the end of the day, as long as Wang Susu is fine, the family should still be happy and harmonious.
The restaurant was crowded today, so they waited another five minutes before serving the food.
Special wharf dishes, mainly steamed, grilled and fried, are served on the table. The steaming heat is accompanied by the aroma, which warms people's hearts on a cold winter day.
Steamed meat cakes, roasted tofu, roasted pork liver, braised pork, glutinous rice cakes, steamed cakes, fried lotus root clips...
One dish after another, the portions are extremely large, and each porcelain basin is used The decoration is simply beyond imagination.
As the saying goes: "There is a line in the Qinling Mountains. Rice is eaten in the south and noodles are eaten in the north."
It stands to reason that rice is the main food here, but there are too few paddy fields. In addition, it is located at the junction of three provinces, and the location is also special, so it is not the same as other places. The place is different.
"Steamed cakes are also filled with meat?"
The couple Chen Ling has not been short of meat for most of the past six months, so they went out to eat something light, but they ended up taking a steamed cake and took a bite , I found that it was oily and there was a lot of meat inside.
“Yes, eat as much meat as you want today and celebrate the New Year in advance.”
Wang Qingwenhao said angrily.
Then he looked at Chen Ling: "Lingzi has never eaten steamed pancakes, has he? In fact, there are other names for this thing. The steamed pancakes with vegetarian vegetables in them are called 'vegetable pythons', and the ones with meat in them are called 'roux'. Dragon', try it, it's delicious..."
Chen Ling tasted it and it tasted really good.
It also has strong wharf characteristics. The steamed cakes are oily and meaty, and the flour cakes are also solid and very filling.
Sometimes people who run boats can’t eat anything for a whole day when they are busy. If they get up early and eat a few steamed meat cakes, they can carry them all day. There is a reason for the large amount.
Wang Susu stopped eating half of it and handed it to Chen Ling for him to eat.
Then change to something else.
She can't eat too many things, just taste the taste of her hometown.
After a few bites, Chen Ling took care of the rest.
But it was rare to go to a restaurant, so everyone except Chen Ling and his wife devoured their food.
Wang Zhenzhen and his two little nephews were also full of food.
“Dongdong, you are eating so hard, is this dish as delicious as your uncle’s?”
Wang Qingzhong saw his son’s belly bulging from eating, so he asked with a smile .
“Not as good as my uncle.”
Dongdong said while grabbing the glutinous rice cake without raising his head.
"Then why do you eat so well?"
Wang Cunye also asked.
“Because we went to a restaurant.”
Dongdong said without thinking.
Good guy, because I’m going to a restaurant...
The crowd burst into laughter.
It was around two o'clock in the afternoon when the family dinner was finally finished.
The whole family is having a great time. Just like Xiao Dongdong said, we went out to a restaurant today and we were very happy and satisfied.
When Chen Ling rushed to pay, he was blocked by Wang Qingwen.
How can you let your son-in-law pay the bill for such a family dinner? That doesn't make sense.
When Wang Susu first got married, he and Wang Qingzhong had made an agreement.
When the girl comes back every year, one person will take care of the family dinner. This is fair.
...... After the meeting this morning, Wang Qingwen and his wife were free. Tomorrow and even Monday the day after tomorrow will not be busy. There are no classes for two days in a row, so the family is not in a hurry to go back and just go to the market. Hang out.
The crowds gradually thinned out in the afternoon, and some stalls were even empty.
It’s not as lively as in the morning, but you can still find some good stuff.
Chen Ling was attracted by a seller of small musical instruments and chose a bamboo xun. It was exquisitely made and had a nice sound.
Then I bought a hoe knife to use in the winter when I have nothing to do and run in the mountains.
The hoe knife, as the name suggests, is a knife that can be equipped with a wooden handle like a hoe.
The position of the knife handle is an iron pipe-shaped groove for disassembly of the wooden handle.
When the wooden handle is not installed, it can be used as a hatchet or machete. When the wooden handle is installed, it is like a Guandao. You can hold the handle to chop, and it can effectively defend yourself when encountering wild beasts.
At the same time, the blade is wide enough and can also dig holes and soil, making it multi-purpose.
"This knife is good. Just buy the knife. I will cut a good wooden handle for you when you get home."
Wang Cunye said.
Then I saw Chen Ling holding on to a red tassel gun and was about to buy it, so I quickly stopped him: "I have one at home too. It has been kept in the woodshed for many years, and I don't have a steel fork to use it. Buy it." What’s this for?”
“Haha, I just saw it and wanted to buy it for fun.”
He has read too many martial arts novels in the past six months, and he always thinks about wielding swords and guns.
Wang Cunye was helpless.
I thought that this son-in-law was good at everything else, but he was too playful.
Walking all the way, we left the town entrance and arrived at the bridge in the south.
There are also stalls selling things on the bridge. The things are quite miscellaneous. Most of them are toys for small children, candied haws, stir candies, rice krispie treats and other small snacks. Wang Zhenzhen is not bad. He has eaten well at Chen Ling’s house in the past six months. There were a lot of things, but there was no reaction. The two little nephews were so shocked when they saw the things here that they couldn't walk immediately.
But I was too full at noon, so in the end I just bought two kilograms of rice krispie treats and took them home to eat.
Further south, there were shops selling kerosene, candles, matches, furs and other daily necessities. Gao Xiulan stopped and bought two packs of matches.
Later, after the family walked across the bridge, they went to take a look near the pier.
Most of the grain, tea, and medicinal materials are shipped out from here.
They were standing on the pier chatting, and the two Heiwa who were following them suddenly started barking. Chen Ling looked in the direction of their shouts and saw a man wearing sunglasses on the west side of the pier waving his fingers. Hey, hey, hey, hey..." the two dogs barked.
The man is not tall, about thirty years old, with a lean build, dark skin, and short, sleek hair. He looks very ordinary, but when paired with sunglasses, he has an inexplicable toughness.
At this time, he was standing with a few kite guests, but he was much better dressed than the kite guests.
When Chen Ling saw this man's appearance, he was extremely surprised.
"Shanmao, why are you here?"
"Hahaha, I met Fugui again. I didn't expect you to be here. I even said that I would pass by your place on my way back. ”
The lynx strode over with a smile on its face, stretched out its hand and shook Chen Ling's hand: "When I saw these two dogs, I knew you were there."
As he said that, he took off his sunglasses and looked at the two dogs. , and asked: "How are they doing recently? Have they been bred yet..."
Good guys, when you meet a person, ask the dog first.
Chen Ling is really not used to this kind of communication.
Don’t talk about him, even Wang Susu, the father-in-law and others next to him were a little confused.
And full of doubts.
Who is this person? He was at the Yaozi Inn. How did Chen Ling know him?
"We haven't been mated yet. They look big, but they are actually still small, and there are no signs of being in heat..."
Chen Ling shook her head.
My dog was raised by Dongtian and is different from other dogs.
He didn't want to talk in depth, so he asked: "Why are you here?"
"I came here with the teacher. The teacher is going to publish a book at the end of the year about endangered animals and plants, so I want to come and talk to him." The classmate writes two paragraphs, signs his name, and goes to the mountain to take some more photos."
Shanmao said.
"Your teacher? Professor Han?"
"Yes."
"Professor Han's classmates are from here?"
"No, they are in the next county, just over two mountains. They have been stationed there for many years to observe crested ibises..."
< br>"Crested Ibis?!"
Chen Ling was even more surprised that there was such a precious thing near us.
“Yes, this crested ibis is actually a kind of bird, it looks a bit like an egret. How can I explain it to you...”
"Let's put it this way, this bird is very rare. It could not be found in the whole world before. We call this extinct. Their last population was accidentally discovered here a few years ago, so ornithologists were sent to investigate. Protection and observation..."
Shanmao thought that Chen Ling didn't know, so he explained it to him in detail.
Chen Ling is fine, because he knows the Crested Ibis.
Wang Qingwen and others behind him were greatly shocked.
Listening to the bobcat's mouth, a series of things about professor, book publishing, ornithologist, and investigation came out. Although I didn't know what it was about, I felt very powerful when I heard it.
The more I listened, the more I felt that something was wrong. How could this son-in-law deal with such a person when he stayed in the village all day?
I quickly pulled Wang Susu aside and asked.
There was no other way, so Wang Susu had no choice but to reveal a little bit about the eel.
Wang Cunye and his wife were stunned for a long time. Their minds were filled with their daughter's words about selling two fishes for ten thousand yuan, and they had no intention of listening to other words.
God, what kind of world is this? !
Two broken eels sold for 10,000...
This son-in-law is so capable now that it’s a bit scary.
