Chapter 513 Entertainment
“What? A magpie built a magpie bridge?”
When Zhao Yubao heard this, he was immediately shocked.
If someone else said it, he would definitely not believe it.
But at Chen Ling's house, he was more or less convinced.
"What kind of Feng Shui treasure is your place? How come something strange happened?"
The old man raised his head, still looking for the magpie.
But it’s raining now, and those magpies have long been out of sight.
Seeing that the old man really believed him, Chen Ling and his family all suppressed their laughter.
In fact, not only Zhao Yubao believed it, but Yu Qian also believed it.
I think this is building a magpie bridge.
Why else would it happen that on Chinese Valentine's Day, so many magpies suddenly flew into the sky?
How can there be such a coincidence in the world.
It must be that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl knew about the reunion during the Chinese Valentine's Day, so they rushed over to build the Magpie Bridge.
Thaksin.
That girl Bai Huining also believed it.
The two looked at this spectacle and held hands.
Yu Qian was so excited that he even proposed marriage.
Speaking of the old boy Yu Qian.
Actually, he and the girl Bai Huining have a crush on each other, but they haven't really confirmed their relationship yet.
At this time, Yu Qi'an hadn't officially started talking about cross talk yet, and he didn't have much luck with his words, especially in front of girls.
Looks immature in every aspect.
Although he was very eloquent when it came to walking the dog with a falcon, he would not say anything in front of the girl he liked.
The girl said that day that he always told her things about Chen Ling's family. She really wasn't just saying polite words to Chen Ling, it was the truth.
Because Yu Qian knew it, Chen Ling’s stuff was more interesting and more interesting to talk about.
in addition.
He is also good at these things, he knows a lot, and he sounds very professional when speaking, and he is not afraid of being left in the cold.
Otherwise, if you don’t mention Chen Ling and just talk about your grasshoppers, raising pigeons, and playing with hawks, other girls will think that this person is not doing his job properly and is unreliable.
If the Chen Ling family doesn't know how to do it, it will arouse the girl's curiosity and interest.
His decision was correct.
Let’s talk about the old turtles and water monsters in Chen Ling’s family, as well as various anecdotes about the mountains, jackals, tigers, leopards, and delicious delicacies.
The girl really became interested and asked him carefully.
Good guy.
When Yu Qian saw this posture, he quickly seized the opportunity and encouraged the little girl to come over and play. Even if he couldn't see the old turtle or anything, he was tired from filming, so he could go out to see the beautiful scenery and enjoy the delicious food in the mountains, so he could relax. Relax.
Perhaps Yu Qian's performance was quite reliable. The girl thought about it for a while and actually followed him.
As a result, the relationship between the two developed by leaps and bounds, beyond Yu Qian's imagination.
I am increasingly convinced that Chen Ling’s place is a feng shui treasure that can bring good luck.
Forget it.
Who would have thought that we could see this magical Magpie Bridge in the afternoon.
In addition to being shocked, Yu Qian was even more excited and wanted to cry.
It was really like...the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl were helping him make this marriage happen.
Afterwards, Yu Qian took several photos with his camera and carefully captured the wonder of Magpie Bridge.
Muttering something in his mouth, he looked quite pious.
When it first started to rain, Chen Ling teased him, saying that magpies and egrets were fighting over territory.
Unexpectedly, the old boy immediately refuted him, saying that this was just building a magpie bridge. Didn't he see that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl started crying?
After saying that, he still held Bai Huining's hand, and the two of them said a few sins to the sky for Chen Ling.
Chen Ling didn't expect that this old boy still had this side, and he felt a little bit dumbfounded.
But when Wang Susu said that she had just seen the scene between the two of them outside the farm upstairs, they were flirting with each other and proposing, I immediately understood.
Think in someone else’s shoes.
If this happened to me when I was dating, I would probably believe it.
Especially if the proposal is successful.
“Oh, how can I write about such good material? There are too many strange things here. If I write too much, will people say that I have become nagging as I get older and violate materialism? "
Zhao Yubao was quite excited at first, but gradually, he began to feel worried.
Wang Cunye laughed at him: "Brother Zhao, why are you running here in the rain? It's so late at night, didn't your sister-in-law kick you out again?"
Last time The rain caused flooding in his yard and the grape trellises were washed down. Zhao Yubao was busy playing cards with people at the farm. His old lady was so angry that she wouldn't let him in at night and spent half the night feeding mosquitoes outside.
It later became the talk of the village.
It is said that great writers and professors are no different from ordinary people, but they are afraid of their wives.
"Nonsense, she dares to chase me away? I let her do that."
When Zhao Yubao heard this, he immediately frowned, "I came to Fugui to ask about the little lamb. "
My father-in-law is an honest man after all. I will stop teasing him when he talks about serious matters.
After all, in the eyes of country people, these little lambs are worth a lot of money. If they can't feed them, it will be a big loss.
I quickly urged Chen Ling to go to the village and show Teacher Zhao.
After all, it is late and raining.
Chen Ling went to check and found that the little lamb was fine.
Just give me some medicine every day.
...
When I came back, I met several villagers, wearing raincoats and carrying shovels, walking slowly back from the outside of the village.
When I saw Chen Ling, I stopped him to talk.
Ask him about his recent trip to the city.
Although Wang Lixian and others were hiding it, something must have happened if Chen Ling, Wang Jusheng and others were out for so many days without coming back.
Recently, some people in the village began to speculate that Chen Ling had taken Jusheng and the others out to make a lot of money.
Some people say that Chen Ling is still standing up for Wang Jusheng. Everyone in the village knows that Chen Ling still has a building in the city. Wang Lixian's third son-in-law was arranged by Chen Ling and is from the city. From now on, Maybe Wang Jusheng would also let Chen Ling move to the city.
Wang Laishun and Liang Guizhen still looked down upon their eldest son. Now that they have made a lot of money, who will care about who they are when they go to the city?
Of course Wang Laishun and his wife felt very uncomfortable hearing these words, especially Liang Guizhen, who was not in a bad mood anymore and had a gloomy face all day long.
The behavior of the second son Wang Juxiang’s family also made the mother-in-law feel very uncomfortable.
Perhaps they felt that Wang Jusheng had broken off his relationship with his parents and that he was the only son in the family. Wang Juxiang and his wife were emboldened and went even further, thinking that everything belonging to Wang Laishun and his wife should belong to his family.
Liang Guizhen secretly sent a basket of eggs to her second son's house. Now Wang Juxiang's wife won't let her come in to sit and drink water.
In addition, Wang Laishun hasn't paid much attention to her recently, so it's strange that this old woman is in a good mood.
These people rambled and gloated about Wang Laishun's family affairs, in fact, just to finally ask Chen Ling if there was anything good he could do to make a living.
Chen Ling talked nonsense to them, without hiding anything or revealing anything, and asked them to sell their pigs quickly and not wait for the end of the year. Pig prices are quite expensive recently.
Those who raise more pigs should raise less pigs next year.
Or don’t raise it at all.
It’s okay for several families to raise one together.
In short, it’s enough to kill meat for yourself at the end of the year.
Then we chatted a little more about the temple fair tomorrow and then went home.
The floods next year in 1998 will be more serious than in the past few years.
But the price of pork is far lower than in recent years.
In normal times in the past two years, the price of pork has been around six yuan, or it has never been lower than six yuan.
When there is a flood, everything is soaring.
But by next year, four or five yuan a pound will still be unsaleable in the city, and even less so in the countryside.
This is related to another large-scale layoff wave next year. Chen Ling recalled this incident while chatting with Liang Yuemin in the city.
But in the village, except for these big pig and chicken farmers, ordinary families will not be affected, and special people like Chen Ling will not be affected at all.
Chen Ling said this to these villagers because he knew that they would make more money by selling pigs, so they would definitely raise more.
So I mentioned it together.
……
The eighth day of July.
Today is the first year of the temple fair in Chenwangzhuang.
The weather was fine in the morning.
The village became lively early. Wang Laishun and his people cleaned up the Tutu Temple, and the village entrance reservoir dam was also cleaned as if it was the New Year. No garbage was seen.
That's called a fresh and tidy one.
In fact, in most places, there are not many people at temple fairs in the first year.
Because in the first year, many of the vendors and people attending the temple fair had not heard of it, and the name had not yet spread.
But Chenwangzhuang is naturally different from other places.
In the past two years, there have been a lot of strange things, new things, and big news in Chen Wangzhuang.
Many people came here to visit before. It was not a temple fair, but it was better than a temple fair.
So the first temple fair in Chenwangzhuang on the eighth day of July was not deserted compared to other places.
But, because there is nothing new in the village recently.
So there are not too many people, just like the people who come to the normal market in the countryside.
And most of them came to offer incense to Prince Turtle, not just to attend the temple fair.
Because it is said that King Turtle has a good spirit and has blessed the villagers of Chenwangzhuang with good weather and good harvests in the past two years.
Many people offer incense.
How to burn incense?
That is, at the entrance of the village, the large copper incense burner placed in front of the stone statue is used to burn incense.
Then you can get a red cloth by paying at least 50 cents to the merit box.
As for the red cloth, they would hang it by the wells in their homes when they returned home.
If there is no well, just hang it next to the water tank.
This is a prayer for the blessing of Prince Turtle.
Wang Laishun told Chen Ling about this method in spring. They were chatting in the fields and said that it was the idea given by the county.
Of course, the money in this merit box does not move. When will Prince Turtle show up for a parade, he will buy tributes to honor his old man.
Chen Ling didn't bother to get involved in their affairs.
While having breakfast at home, I discussed with my father-in-law how to sell the extra mats, curtains and other things I had made.
He himself also wanted to take the opportunity to put the wheat seeds out to see if many people would buy them.
This is purely for fun.
It is not to make money, but to inspire the jasper trees in the cave sky.
Chen Ling waited for the next leaf to grow early and gave it to Wang Susu.
I have been pregnant for two consecutive years. Although both of them are willing to have more babies, he still feels a little sorry for his wife.
The little daughter-in-law who used to be lively and playful has now changed her mentality a lot.
Sometimes she would lie in bed and tell Chen Ling that with Ruirui, she seemed to be a few years older without feeling anything.
Same.
This is amazing about women.
Chen Ling, the father, doesn’t feel anything yet.
She has automatically switched to the role of mother.
On the dinner table.
“Small packet of paper, I’ll beat you.”
Ruirui grabbed the peeled egg shell, with a fierce expression on his face, and threw it towards the little clouded leopard who was tilting his head back and forth and sniffing gently at the table.
The little clouded leopard is indeed a role model for cats. It reacts very quickly. Even before the egg shell falls on it, it suddenly bounces away with a 'swish'.
And he was so light-footed that he made no sound when he jumped so high.
Like a big rat dragging a long tail, it sneaked under Wang Susu's bamboo chair.
Then he stuck his head out, raised his two fluffy little triangular ears, stared at his round eyes, and kept shouting "Aww, aww" at the little baby.
The little leopard looked fiercely at Ruirui, and Heiwa and Xiaojin immediately stopped.
I was lying in front of the threshold of the living room to rest, but then I suddenly stood up and started barking at the little leopard.
The little leopard was so frightened that he shrank completely under the bamboo chair under Wang Susu and did not dare to move.
Wang Susu was helpless when she saw this. She stretched out her hand and skillfully pulled the brat's head over: "You, have a meal and the whole family will follow you. Eat quickly. After you finish eating, you will go to the temple fair with your father." "
The adults had all finished eating and were busy with other things, so this brat just ate and played while eating. If we didn't talk about him, he would have eaten a meal for two hours.
Wang Susu now finally understood how Chen Ling's mother and grandmother felt at that time.
No wonder he had to hold it in his mouth and feed it to Chen Ling.
You are so playful, running around the village eating rice, how can your rice not get cold?
After feeding his son, Wang Susu mixed the remaining porridge with some fish meat and broth, mixed it together, stirred it, and fed it to the little leopard.
The little leopard then dared to get out from under the bamboo chair.
Like a big tabby cat, it first circled Wang Susu's legs and rubbed them affectionately, then took a wary look at the baby who was lying on Heiwa, purring and tinkering with the little white elephant. Then he dragged his long tail with confidence and started to eat.
In this home.
Except for Wang Susu, Little Leopard is not very friendly to anyone.
Sometimes when Chen Ling wanted to touch it, he would catch it off guard, grab it in his hand, press it on his leg, and forcefully stroke it for a while.
Normally it can’t be touched at all.
So sometimes Chen Ling would tell his wife that being pregnant was not all a bad thing, at least she was very popular with these little things and cubs.
Wang Susu thinks so too.
Especially later, the young couple gradually discovered that the dogs and cows at home, or the weasels, the bald men, and even the extremely restless little green horse, all became gentle and gentle when meeting Wang Susu. feet.
After being tamed by Chen Ling, the little green horse was not allowed to be touched or ridden by outsiders.
But as Wang Susu's belly gradually grew, this guy was also sensible. After being touched, he would take the initiative to please.
Sometimes I enjoy the shade in the orchard.
The little green horse will trot over quietly, grinning widely and showing its big white teeth to pick up Wang Susu's braid or pull her clothes.
Make her happy.
Wang Susu was very pleased and satisfied, feeling that raising them was not in vain and treating them well was not in vain.
“Oh, what kind of cat is this, with a tail so thick and long?”
Yu Qian helped Chen Ling carry two bags of wheat out, and asked in surprise when he saw the little leopard eating at Wang Susu's feet.
When Ruirui heard this, he grabbed the little white elephant and turned around, and said to Yu Qian with a serious face: "The small packet of paper is fierce, don't touch it."
Yu Qian was stunned, he I was also a little used to what Ruirui, a little girl, said, "What, what, what? Is this a little leopard?"
He smashed a whole bag of wheat on the ground and looked at Chen in shock. Ling: "No, Fugui, I haven't been here for a long time, and you already raised leopards. Next time I come here, you won't even raise tigers."
"No. Leopards are native leopards that come from the mountains, little clouded leopards.”
Chen Ling waved her hand and asked her wife: "When did this guy sneak in again? It's rare that he's quite clean this time."
"Well, he snuck over from behind just after you left. It looks like he wants to change It’s furry. I haven’t seen it for more than a week. It’s growing very fast and is almost bigger than the cat at home.”
Wang Susu simply put away the dishes and gently touched the little clouded leopard. The little guy liked Wang Susu very much. After stroking her, she finished a small bowl of food, licked her mouth with her pink and tender tongue, and then lightly jumped onto Wang Susu's lap, humping and rubbing against her.
Yu Qian was even more shocked when he saw that it was really a little leopard. Wild leopards are raised like cats. The wealthy family is so good. He hurried outside and called Bai Huining: "Huining, Huining, don't feed those rice seedlings." Chicken, there is a leopard here, come and see the little leopard."
Seeing his exaggerated appearance, Ruirui tilted her little head and looked at this strange uncle Yu Qian.
I can't seem to figure out what's so good about this bad and fierce little leopard.
Perhaps thinking of how annoying this little leopard was, the brat suddenly put on a fierce expression, waved the little white elephant toy in his hand, and made a face at the little clouded leopard.
