Shanwa Small Rich Farmers

Chapter 251: evening clear rain starry sky

When it was time for dinner, Wen Xu went to the greenhouse to get some side dishes and went back to the small courtyard. Along the way, he got some meat. If it wasn't because he was too tired, Wen Xu would definitely have a good meal tonight, but Walking with others and doing hard work along the way, Wen Xu thought not to be so particular today, found a place in the kitchen and started cooking some home-cooked food.

   "Hey, Uncle Shixu, you have cooked so many dishes by yourself"

  A middle-aged woman in her forties who lived in the adjacent house also came over to cook for her family. When she entered the kitchen, she saw Wen Xu washing vegetables and cooking by herself and immediately greeted her.

In the countryside, all the cooks are women, and there are very few big men like Wen Xu who cook. What's more, a man like Wen Xu not only cooks, but the shadow of his wife Zhuo Yiqing doesn't touch the pot. Let some people laugh behind his back that this clan uncle is afraid of his wife, but because of Wen Xu's seniority, he is still a little stunned. The most important thing is that he is still holding someone else's bowl. As the old saying goes, don't try to provoke those The one who feeds you, because no good will come of it.

  So few of these fast-talking nephews and daughter-in-laws in their forties would dare to stab Wen Xu face to face.

  Wen Xu was holding a shovel in his hand and was wearing an apron. The apron was still unlucky, and he looked like a very home-cooked husband.

"Where are there two people? I was patting my chest with the director of the division and Xu Jingrong and said that I would cook for you. Who knew that it would only be ten days since I left. Today's meal is also meant to make up for so many meals owed by the higher authorities. Can't you behave better?" Wen Xu happily explained.

   "Uncle Shixu, you said our eldest child will take the college entrance examination at this time next year. Think about which university to take!" Another middle-aged woman opened her mouth and said.

Hearing what kind of college reference Wen Xu asked her child to take, the one who was sitting on the small bench picking vegetables couldn't help laughing: "Auntie, don't make such a joke. ? Based on the grades of your younger brother, I guess Uncle Shixu will be able to worry about going to college if he takes the exam instead!"

   This man was not polite when speaking, and the two or three women sitting there were very happy when he finished speaking.

   "What do you know? Exams are nothing now. When I grow up next year, I will definitely be admitted to a university. I can't say much about it, but the provincial capital is still fine..." The woman said straight away.

If Wen Xu didn't know, he would reply a few words out loud, but not only did he know, but he also knew a little about this son, that is, his nephew and grandnephew. With his grades, he could pass all the exams. There is nothing wrong with the so-called 'university', let alone a serious undergraduate course, even a junior college may not be qualified, this woman is a typical 'treasure of herself', anyway, her son is good everywhere.

Although the people in Wenjia Village regard Wen Xu as a role model for educating children, learning this thing depends on talent, not to mention that these people themselves are big bosses, who seem to follow the principle of "sticks make filial sons", and school bullies like Wen Xu are also ancestral graves. Take the smoke, because they passed the college entrance examination, and now Wenjia Village can count them on one hand, want to mass-produce them? There are no doors!

"What kind of university to enter mainly depends on the children's hobbies, and which major to choose depends on the children's interests..." Wen Xu said nonsense, and even Wen Xu himself did not believe what he said. Chinese children really know their future when they are admitted to college. There are very few people who want to do something and what major they like. Most of them look at the school first and then their major. They think about going to university first. What's more, this person's grades, let alone going to university, has no chance of being "admitted" by university.

   "Let's talk about it, what new things are happening in the village these days!" After the nonsense, Wen Xu immediately changed the topic, bypassing the nonsense topic of the child's college entrance examination, and talked about the new things that happened in the village these days when he was not here.

It’s a small village with a bigger fart, and these women are the most gossip, Wen Xu asked these other people might not know about it, but if these people don’t know about Zhang’s parents and Li’s family, these people are hiding it It's too deep, let's put it this way, these people can even know whose mouse is pregnant with a second child.

  As soon as Wen Xu asked this, the eldest daughters and old daughters-in-law immediately became excited and began talking to Wen Xu. What Wen Xu cares about is just a few small things, like the people from the Provincial Forestry Bureau drove a car to catch the big turtle, and they didn't touch the big turtle after groping the whole pond, and Professor Zheng wanted the Wenxu Space book. The reason is that I went to the village to squat for seven or eight days.

  Everyone was chatting happily, when suddenly there was a muffled thunder in the sky outside the house.

  Boom! Rumble!

With a few thunderclaps, the entire outside sky darkened in less than two minutes. In this short period of time, the sky outside felt like a hot summer afternoon with light wind and light clouds. , All of a sudden, it changed to the posture of dark clouds and black clouds overwhelming the city.

Wen Xu stretched out his head, and immediately saw an arc of lightning in the sky, as if tearing the clouds, hanging straight to Tianmu, and after following, he saw light raindrops began to fall on the ground, the brick-patterned floor in the courtyard was very easy It can be seen that the dry floor tiles quickly turned from a little wet mark to a piece, and then turned into a puddle, followed by heavy rain, countless raindrops hit the ground, and the rain puddles on the ground Blossoming rain flowers splashed in the sky, enveloping everything in the entire mountain village in misty rain.

   "Why is it raining so hard all of a sudden, isn't it midsummer yet?" Wen Nu looked at the sky outside, then subconsciously walked to the switch and turned on the light in the house.

"Uncle, this rain is very normal. Since five or six days ago, the sky has slowly started to smell like midsummer. It happens every night, and it's almost at this point. Waiting for the rain to end, The sky is also completely dark, and you will see later, either the sky is full of stars or the big moon is hanging in the sky, and it is very refreshing to sleep at night, if you don’t live here, but live in your own yard, directly Once it is put in a cool bed yard or on the drying ground, that guy has to be covered with a quilt to avoid being frozen..."

   "God is weird, today's weather is completely different from usual"

  While these big girls and old daughters-in-law were chatting about the strange weather in Wenjia Village this year, a figure flashed by the door of the kitchen, Wen Xu looked up and saw that it was Wen Guangsong's daughter-in-law Xu Xinghua.

  As soon as Xu Xinghua entered the door, he immediately lifted off the raincoat hat on his body. The rain was so heavy that the hair on his forehead was piled up, and the rainwater was dripping continuously.

   "Uncle, you are indeed here, I'll bring you some snails, which Guangsong and Yuanbo touched in the stream the day before yesterday" Xu Xinghua said while passing the basin in his hand to Wen Nu's eyes.

As soon as Wen Xu stretched out his head and saw the snails in the basin, he immediately praised: "Good guy! This head is really good enough, that's it, then I thank you. It just so happens that there is nothing to do tonight, let's do something. I save the snails to pass the time while watching TV."

Wen Xu and Xu Xinghua are not too polite, the entire village is considered to be the closest relationship between Wen Guangsong's family and Wen Xu's family. Although they are not the closest in blood, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Those who get along are close.

   What's more, the snails brought by Xu Xinghua are indeed good things. They are all about the same size at first glance, and each one is about the size of an adult's thumb. The brown snail shell seems to be shiny, quite beautiful. Some people may think that the bigger the snail, the better, like the big French snails, each one is almost catching up with the iron gall for exercise.

But veteran foodies should understand that the snail should be neither big nor small. If it is too small, there will not be much meat and nothing to eat. Of course, there is nothing wrong with cooking it over a high heat, but the snail meat is old, and the taste of the entrance is a little bit worse.

  The best snails are the thumb-sized snails from the wild stream that Xu Xinghua is holding now. After such snails are caught from the stream, they are kept in a pot with clean water, and a few drops of sesame oil are dripped into the pot to urge the snails to spit out all the silt in their stomachs. After a few times, I crushed the tail shell of the snail with pliers, took out the dirt from inside, and then cleaned it to look like Xu Xinghua brought it now.

   "Thank you then." Wen Xu took the basin, and was thinking about how to deal with these greedy little game later.

   "Uncle, when will your house be ready?"

  Xu Xinghua didn't leave after delivering the snails. It was raining too much outside, so he pulled a bench and sat next to his sister-in-law, and asked Wen Xu while helping her pick vegetables.

After arriving in the village, I was busy taking a bath first, and then relieved the 'greedy' these days, waiting for the clinging with my girlfriend to end, and it was time to eat, so I rushed to the greenhouse to pick vegetables and cook, all of a sudden Forget about the fact that the construction of my new house has officially started.

   It's not that Wen Xu doesn't want to see the progress of his new house, but that Wen Xu doesn't have time to watch it at all, so he can only postpone doing this until after dinner.

   "I don't know. I haven't visited it this time. How far do you say my new house is?"

   "Foundation, your foundation is too deep. I heard that you have dug a basement. Uncle? Are you preparing sweet potatoes at home?" A woman asked curiously.

  For these villagers, the so-called basement and wine cellar do not exist. They think that digging a hole in the ground will have no other use except to store sweet potatoes and Chinese cabbage.

  Hearing what they said, Wen Xu muttered to himself and realized that the red wine cellar he mentioned last time was accepted by Xu Daxin.

While listening to them chatting, Wen Xu quickly stir-fried vegetables, just came back today, Wen Xu didn't cook any extraordinarily tough dishes here, and just left the forest, Wen Xu made two dishes and one soup, a scrambled egg with tomatoes, One shredded pork with green pepper and edamame, two hard vegetables, one boiled mutton, and one steamed fish, and the last one was the snail sent by Xu Xinghua.

   Every time a dish is fried, Wen Xu immediately puts it in the insulation box he brought to keep warm, and waits for all the dishes to be cooked, and the rain outside will stop.

The rain is indeed as strange as the women said before. It rains suddenly, and when it stops, there is no sign of muddy water. It seems that God just wants to show everyone his willfulness: I want to rain this rain. Down, stop if you want!

  It was raining heavily one second ago, and the sky was full of stars the next time, and when the rain came, I felt that the night view of the mountain village was a bit clearer than before, which seemed to be within reach.

   "Wow, this sky full of stars is absolutely amazing!" Wen Xu held an insulated box of vegetables in his left hand and an insulated box of rice in his right hand. As soon as he went out, he was immediately attracted by the starry sky.

  Originally, Wenjia Village was located in a mountain village. I don’t know how much more beautiful it is to see the stars here than in the city. Now the sky full of stars is simply fascinating. Not only the number, but also the clarity, it’s so clear! As if there is no such atmosphere, looking around, except for the undulating black mountains, there is a starry sky all around, and the stars in the sky seem to have a meaning that you squeeze me, I squeeze you, covering the whole head. The sky seems to not want to leave a gap for people's sight.

  One is that even if the sky is beautiful when it rains in Wenjia Village, people probably won’t be able to appreciate it, because below a certain level, no one will care about the sky above their heads, and they will definitely care about the mud on their shoes. Now that the roads in the village have been repaired, even if it rains all the time, there is no mud on your feet, no such troublesome things, and everyone's life is carefree, so naturally there will be that leisurely feeling of "looking up at the stars"!
