Chapter 8: Going to the most important place in life, Guangyao enters the village
Wei Zhenxian's family is at the east end of the village. Along the way, Cui Baosen talked about farm work as he knew. It seemed that he was also an expert in the farmyard. From time to time, he grabbed a few peanuts that had just been dug out of the field and piled on the street. "This year's white sand is good, and one acre can produce several thousand kilograms, right?" Baisha is a variety of peanuts.
Looking at Cui Baosen's appearance, Wen Guangyao sighed secretly that he would sing any song at any mountain and sing it, and when he entered the village, he had to say what the common people said. He also imitated Cui Baosen's appearance and pulled a few peanuts and started eating it.
When I came to a house, the tiles on the roof were still the same old-fashioned small tiles. The roof was uneven. I guess the house must have leaked. It seems that the family is really not easy. Wei Zhenxi pushed open the dilapidated door, "Zhenxian, is Zhenxian at home?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a big black dog suddenly jumped out from some corner. The dog was unleashed and rushed towards Wen Guangyao and the others.
Wen Guangyao reacted quickly and picked up the iron shovel behind the door. Before he could even take a picture of the dog's head, he heard a woman in the inner room shouting, "Huahu, get out of here." Then, a woman with short and thick hair came out of the door. The black dog barked a few times and fell back into the nest obediently.
Cui Baosen's face remained calm and asked with a smile, "The autumn harvest is here, and the crops at home have been harvested?"
The woman didn't have a good look, "How could I take it alone by myself? Zhenxi, will the brigade solve the problem of my family?"
Before Wei Zhenxi could answer, Cui Baosen smiled and said, "Cross the crops first, and let's talk about them after harvesting them. The weather forecast will rain in the past few days, so don't let the peanuts sprout in the field."
Wei Zhenxi looked bad, "The brigade has done everything he can do, and my salary has not been paid for several years. Who should I go to?"
Cui Baosen glanced at him and said, "Let's go, I can't help anything else. Organize two people and come and help the boss when I'm busy."
The women didn't keep them. As soon as they walked out, they heard the sound of splashing water. Wen Guangyao turned around and saw the woman pouring a basin of dirty water on the street behind them.
Wei Zhenxi cursed, "If you need to clean up things, don't blame others if you live like this." He just cursed, and probably there was nothing he could do.
Cui Baosen smiled at Wen Guangyao and said, "Young man, I was very brave just now!" Mr., this Wenhuan name is no longer used by Wen Guangyao.
Wen Guangyao smiled and said, "My hometown is also in the countryside, so I'm used to it."
Cui Baosen did not continue to praise him, "Wang Guoyao goes to the village, and the dogs in the village don't bark, we are much better than him."
"Wang Guoyao?" Wen Guangyao asked in confusion.
Cui Baosen looked at Wei Zhenxi. Wei Zhenxi also smiled, but he didn't answer. Wen Guangyao thought, it wasn't Wang Guoyao, right? He looked at Cui Baosen again and saw that Cui Baosen had already walked towards the village committee. He secretly told himself that others could call him that, but he must not call him the leader like this, and he had a good impression of Wang Guoyao.
Cui Baosen walked very quickly. Xiao Zhong saw him from a distance and started the car in advance. Cui Baosen opened the door and rolled down the window and told him, "At noon, my little brother won't go back. Let's have a meal here and let the car come to pick him up in the evening."
Wei Zhenxi said with a smile, "Okay, come here too at noon. We two haven't been together for a long time."
Cui Baosen smiled and said, "I have something to do at noon, I'll get together another day, so I'll leave first." He waved his hand, and Wen Guangyao stepped forward and asked, "Cui Suo, leave your phone number to me!"
Cui Baosen said, "I remembered it just now." After he said his phone number, the car turned out of the street.
"Get in and drink water," Wei Zhenxi greeted enthusiastically, "Where is my hometown?"
"On the plain," Wen Guangyao was not like the beginning. Anyone asked his hometown that he would introduce him to the county level. "Secretary Wei, don't you have to watch it?"
"No, go once at noon, just go once in the afternoon." Wei Zhenxi took the lead in walking back to the village committee, "This is your teacup." He poured Wen Guangyao another glass of water. Wen Guangyao looked at the mouth of the teacup, and saw that he was still so "specialized", he was a little amused and crying.
After drinking tea with Wei Zhenxi for a while, and taking family matters for a while, he took Wei Zhenxi to take a look. After all, this was his first task. Although it was not yet determined to stay or stay, the habit of doing things was a little worried. Seeing that the woman was picking peanuts in front of the gate, Wen Guangyao returned to the village committee with confidence, and Wei Zhenxi took the opportunity to go home.
When Wei Zhenxi came back from home, he looked at the clock on the wall and warmly invited him, "We won't go out to eat at noon. Let's go to the house to taste your sister-in-law's craftsmanship."
Wen Guangyao also looked at his watch. It was almost half past 11. At this time, he was almost at school, but Wei Zhenxi was over forty and fifty years old, and his age was about the same age as his father. Wen Guangyao could not shout out his voice.
The two left the village committee, and Wen Guangyao insisted on going and reading it again. Wei Zhenxi could not persuade him, so he had to walk towards Wei Zhenxian's house.
At noon, the chimneys of every household were smoking. Before the two of them had reached Wei Zhenxian's house, Wei Zhenxi pointed to the chimney in front and said with a smile, "Cooking at home."
Wen Guangyao saw the curling smoke of cooking stoves floating with the wind, and his heart was relieved.
Wei Zhenxi's house is a row of six main houses with red tiles and white gray, with east-west platforms and vermilion gates, which are very imposing. Peanuts are piled on both sides of the gate, hanging over and over. Looking inside from outside the gate, there are also a pile of golden corn on the concrete floor in the courtyard, showing the rich year.
Wen Guangyao grabbed a few peanuts and walked into the yard. The yard was neatly tidy and a middle-aged woman came up with a smile on her face, "Sit inside quickly, this leader looks at the face, what's the name?"
Wen Guangyao hurriedly said, "You call me Xiaowen, you are, sister-in-law, please trouble you at noon today."
He thought that this title was more suitable.
Wei Zhenxi's wife smiled and said, "Well, when you arrive at Weijiaqiao, you can just come in directly." She looked at Wen Guangyao, "It's quite young, your home is not local, right?"
Wen Guangyao smiled and said, "Of the Pingyuan City." He has been in Longcheng for two months, and he feels that people in Longcheng are not xenophobic. Asking about their hometown may also be a way to greet him.
Wei Zhenxi smiled and said, "Don't be polite when you arrive at your brother's house. Come on, sit in there."
Wen Guangyao said, "You go in first, I'll go to the bathroom."
Wei Zhenxi pointed to the southeast corner, "The toilet is there." After saying that, he pushed open the screen door of the main house and walked in. Wei Zhenxi's wife went to the wing room to open.
Wen Guangyao came out of the toilet and did not go back to the main house directly. He walked out of the gate and went straight east. On the way he came just now, he saw a shop there.
Wen Guangyao rushed back to Wei Zhenxi's house with a box of milk and a bundle of beer. Wei Zhenxi and his wife were staring at the yard. Seeing what Wen Guangyao had in his hand, they immediately understood what was going on. No wonder they couldn't find anyone in a blink of an eye?
"Sister-in-law, the first time I'm here, I'm just a little bit of my heart," Wen Guangyao smiled.
Wei Zhenxi was both surprised and a little moved. His wife also looked at her. "Xiaowen, who asked you to buy things and spend some money?" She hurriedly took the "gift" from Wen Guangyao.
Wei Zhenxi said exaggeratedly, "Brother, come here in the future with me, and don't enter my door when buying things."
Wen Guangyao smiled and said, "Brother, I have to express it for the first time." He suddenly felt that the title of brother is very good, and it is most appropriate when he is too old and is called peers.
The two of them came to the inner room. Four dishes were already placed on the Eight Immortals table in the room, including pork head meat mixed with cucumber, spicy stir-fried clams, Haihong fried eggs, and a plate of roast chicken. In addition to having dinner at Liang Guotao on August 15, this is the second time Wen Guangyao has been to the countryside by the sea as a guest. It seems that as long as it is in the countryside, the guests are mainly meat and respectful.
Wei Zhenxi smiled and said, "We're going to be white at noon?"
Wen Guangyao was thinking about the petitioner, "Secretary Wei, I drink less, let's drink less." He came from the countryside, and knew that people of this age in the countryside would like to drink a few sips. If they insisted on not drinking, they would also look down on others.
Wei Zhenxi came out of the inner room and had a bottle of "Longcheng Lao Shao" in his hand. "Brother, try this wine, pure grain wine, it won't be too much for him." He didn't need to open the wine, put the bottle to his mouth, and immediately raised the bottle cap with his teeth, poured white wine into the cup of water in front of Wen Guangyao, and poured it on himself.
"Come on, brother, take a bite first." Wei Zhenxi invited him, and he picked up the wine glass and took a beautiful mouthful. "Brother, eat vegetables, eat vegetables, taste your old sister-in-law's skills."
Wen Guangyao picked up a piece of pork head meat, and the meat was cooked crispy and fragrant, fat but not greasy. Wen Guangyao's appetite was wide open for a moment.
Wei Zhenxi looked at him and smiled, "Your sister-in-law went to a market, and there was nothing to be entertained in the countryside." After two sips of wine, he also started to say more words, "Xiao Wen, when I met at the village committee just now, I thought you could do it, otherwise, the Three Kingdoms would not be assured to leave you alone."
"Three Kingdoms?" Wen Guangyao was very curious.
"Oh, you just came here, you don't know about the Three Kingdoms, right?" Wei Zhenxi clamped a chicken neck and said while gnawing, "Cui Baosen." His expression was very plain.
Wen Guangyao became interested, but it was hard to inquire. Wei Zhenxi looked at him and said with a smile, "He likes to read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Usually, he is either this or that plan, so everyone calls him the Three Kingdoms."
So that's it. No wonder Cui Baosen speaks very well, but he is still the kind of rural scholar-like arrogant writing. Wen Guangyao feels this is quite interesting.
Wei Zhenxi raised his cup again, "Come on, let's go." After drinking, he put down his glass, "Old woman, put on the plate of pickled crabs."
Wen Guangyao hurriedly said, "No need, Secretary Wei, there is enough food, sister-in-law, let's eat together." Crabs are very expensive, he still knows that.
Wei Zhenxi stopped him and said, "Women don't go to the table," his eyes turned red and shouted to the west room, "Did you hear it? Get the crab."
Wei Zhenxi's wife walked in from outside and complained, "I don't know how many pounds of cat urine after drinking a few sips of cat urine." She smiled at Wen Guangyao again, "Big brother, don't laugh at your elder brother."
Wen Guangyao hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, what are you saying? Haha, it's all like this, it's all like this." He said vaguely.
"Eat crabs raw and shrimps alive. Come, brother, try my pickled crabs," Wei Zhenxi took a piece himself. "I pickled every year. Secretary Tan loves this bite the most. Every year I give him two jars."
Wen Guangyao picked it up and tasted it. It was fresh, salty, sweet and numb, and the lips and teeth were fresh. "Secretary Wei, it's delicious."
Wei Zhenxi smiled "hehe" and his face was full of pride and joy. He poured Wen Guangdou a glass of white wine, "Is it delicious? The crabs I pickled are all fat on the top, the lid and legs are cut off, shrimp oil, pepper, star anise, white wine, sugar, ginger, and you can't lose any blindness..."
Speaking of crabs, Wei Zhenxi began to make a long talk. After drinking a bottle of "Longcheng Lao Shao", Wei Zhenxi still felt unsatisfied and took another bottle of "Gu Yangchun". "Come on, try the wine from your hometown." Seeing that Wen Guangyao didn't want to drink it again, he looked stern, "What, I'm afraid there is no wine at my brother's house, right?"
