Start as a farmer from an ordinary world

Chapter 114

For Wang Manyin, it doesn't matter how many fish he catches, the most important thing is to be happy with Lanhua.

Anyway, there are plenty of fish in the space, it's not too late to get a few more tomorrow.

However, after a heavy rain, the sediment content in the Dongla River increased greatly, and many fish floated on the water surface to breathe.

The two were busy along the river bank for a long time, and the harvest was not bad. They caught four loaches and two crucian carp.

For them, it's enough for a toothbrush at noon.

Seeing that it was almost noon, the two planned to go back early to cook.

The road was slippery in rainy days, and it was not easy to climb the cliffs near the river, so Wang Manyin had to go back the same way with the orchids.

As soon as he got to the puddle, he saw a group of people surrounding Wang Mancang, muttering something in a low voice.

"Brother Mancang, what are you talking about? It's so mysterious." Wang Manyin asked curiously.

"It's Man Yin, it scared me." Hearing the voice, Wang Mancang turned his head and looked guiltily.

Immediately, he lowered his voice and said, "Last night, the cave dwelling where the educated youths lived was in trouble!"

"What? Brother Mancang, you don't dare to talk nonsense." Wang Manyin was startled, and hurriedly stopped him, "If outsiders hear it, they will make mistakes."

In the era of prosperity, is it appropriate for a group of people to discuss tricky issues openly and aboveboard?

"Let's just talk about it casually. The educated youths mentioned it first. The key point sounds really evil..." Wang Xiugang said next to him.

"What's wrong, what's going on?" Wang Manyin looked at Liu Xiangyang and the others in confusion, feeling very absurd in his heart.

They are the most turbulent place, and they vow to wipe out all the old things. Could it be possible that they also believe there is something wrong?

In fact, people in this era are somewhat divided in their thinking. On the one hand, they are passionate, and on the other hand, they are dubious about certain things.

"It's not the cave where we live, it's the girl next door. Last night they slept until midnight..." Shang Zhimin pushed his glasses with his fingers and spoke slowly.

This person is very eloquent, talking about things like storytelling, the plot twists and turns, full of suspense.

But the summary is very simple: it rained last night, and several female educated youths slept until midnight, when they suddenly heard someone knocking on the wall of the cave dwelling.

At first they thought it was a companion hysteria, so they lit the oil lamp.After they all woke up, they realized that the sound was not from their companions, but from the inside of the kiln wall, accompanied by coughing and coughing.

Several female educated youths screamed in fright, waking up the male educated youths next door.

A group of people were called up in the middle of the night and searched the cave dwelling, but found nothing abnormal.When the rooster crowed at dawn, the abnormal sound stopped suddenly.

"Nonsense, what's the matter, you must be scaring yourself." Although the other party's words are amazing, Wang Manyin still feels that they are making up.

What "stops abnormally after the cock crows", I've seen too much "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

"Really, I'm not kidding you, someone really knocked something in the loess last night, intermittently. I also heard coughing..." Liu Xiangyang also emphasized.

"It should be a mouse," Wang Manyin deduced after a little thought, "There are mouse holes in the cave dwelling where you live. In the dead of night, the sound of mice digging holes sounds a bit strange."

In many cases, fear first arises in people's hearts, and then some familiar voices are magically transformed.

After the truth was revealed, it was discovered that it was a false alarm.

When the later generation Wang Manyin was in college, he didn't go home during the winter vacation and lived alone in the dormitory.One night, not long after he fell asleep, he suddenly heard a rattling sound from outside the dormitory door, as if someone was walking in the corridor wearing slippers.

Wang Manyin was also trembling at the time, but he couldn't sleep because of the torment, so he simply put on his clothes and went out to check with a mop in his hand.

The result made me laugh and cry: I don’t know who stuck a piece of plastic tape on the window of the stairway, and it was rattled by the wind...

"It's definitely not a mouse, we have blocked all the mouse holes." Shang Zhimin shook his head again and again, and emphasized again, "When it was raining in the middle of the night, the female educated youths looked through the window and saw an old man walking around outside. go……"

"I'll go, the more you talk, the more mysterious you are," Wang Manyin was completely speechless.

"Man Yin, did you forget, those cave dwellings where they lived used to belong to Wang Bingtou's family. He was hanged there. He was over 50 when he died. He was just an old man." Wang Mancang muttered softly. road.

"What, someone hanged himself in the cave?" When the educated youths heard this, their faces changed again, and they felt that the matter was even weirder.

Wang Manyin said angrily, "Brother Mancang, can you explain clearly? Wang Bingtou didn't hang himself in the cave, but on a tree outside, which was cut down a long time ago."

Wang Bingtou is Wang Mingqiang's father, and he has a bad background.Now Wang Mingqiang's family is going through a difficult time. If someone blindly contacts this matter, it may have a bad influence on them.

"I'll just say it casually," Wang Mancang shut up awkwardly.

He also realized that if his words got out, it might cause trouble.

"Okay, don't talk about this kind of topic anymore. You go back and look carefully, it must be a mouse hole or something..." Wang Manyin went home and waited to cook, and he didn't have time to listen to their nonsense.

After a word of advice, he left with his mother-in-law and aunt.

As a result, not long after they walked on the dirt road, Lan Hua suddenly staggered, then grinned and screamed.

"What's wrong?" Wang Manyin hurried over.

"My foot was pierced by the Maruzi thorn, it really hurts," Lan Hua raised her left foot and asked her husband to examine it carefully.

Maruzi is wild rose, one of the common wild shrubs on the Loess Plateau, and it can be found everywhere in the fields and along the banks of the valleys and cliffs.

The stems and leaves of this thing are covered with small thorns, and the roots are particularly developed. If it is not removed in time, a large area will climb out in a few years.

But it's good to use it as a fence. Wang Manyin raises a lot of animals in the space.

Of course, if stabbed by Ma Ruzi, it will definitely not feel good.

Lanhua's feet were covered with yellow mud, and blood could be seen faintly oozing inside.Wang Manyin searched carefully for a while, but did not see if there was a broken thorn.

He simply squatted down and said, "I'll carry you on my back, why don't you go home and look for it!"

"That's okay, I'd better walk back by myself, so that people can see how bad it is." Lan Hua said a little shyly.Usually, it doesn't matter how intimate the two are at home, but they still have to pay attention to their image outside.

"What's the matter? Come up quickly, don't dawdle."

Wang Manyin didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all, and she carried her mother-in-law openly and aboveboard, not stealing someone.

Lan Hua hesitated, but leaned on her back obediently.

Carrying her mother-in-law and aunt behind her back to rush home, Wang Manyin even got excited and sang at the top of her voice: "It's great that the orchid flower is so good, my brother has taken a fancy to you a long time ago. Make a bowl of flowers to bloom on the spot. You put your Turn that white face over here...you don't mind being ashamed, I'm not shy, I'll walk with Lan Huahua on my back..."

Lan Hua's face was blushing, but her heart was full of sweetness, she couldn't help pinching the man's arm twice.

"Man Yin, stop howling, be careful to attract wolves..."

At the door of the house, Lanhua saw Shao'an standing on the sidelines waiting from a distance, holding a girdle cloth bag in his hand.

"Shao'an, why are you here?"

Immediately, she shyly said to the man again: "Man Yin, let me down quickly."

"It's okay, Shao'an is not an outsider, just now Lanhua's foot was pricked by Ma Ruthorn."

Wang Manyin explained something for her aunt, and hurriedly took out the key to open the door, and asked Shaoan to enter the cave and sit down.

Seeing that the relationship between the two is very good, Sun Shaoan is of course very satisfied.Sometimes he also admires his sister's vision, she can pick out gold from the sand, and she can see the goodness of her brother-in-law at a glance.

Now when people in Shuangshui Village talk about the eldest son-in-law of the Sun family, they almost all praise him with a thumbs up, saying that the orchid fell into the blessing nest.

Even because of the brother-in-law, their family is undergoing great changes.So far this spring, several people have never been hungry again.

"I'm resting today, and I happened to get a few meat coupons in my hand, so I cut some meat, kept some at home, and sent the rest to you." Shaoan said, and took out half a catty of pork from the cloth bag.

This was his wish, so naturally Wang Manyin would not refuse.

With this piece of pork, just in time to improve life at noon.

"Why didn't you bring Shaoping and Lanxiang here? I haven't seen them for a while, and we happened to have a meal together at noon. Otherwise, let's make flat food. I will go to the private plot to cut a handful of leeks and green onions later, and then I will take Shaoping Ping they called over to eat, "

Bian Shi belongs to the name of the Loess Plateau. It is the dumpling that people in the north often say, and it can be regarded as a high-standard hospitality food.

Xintianyou once sang: "Eating a bowl of flat food without drinking a mouthful of soup, I didn't make up my mind and fell into the trap of others."

"No need, brother-in-law, I have to go back, and the family has started cooking..." Shao An hurriedly got up and declined.

"Why don't you go back, I'll help you pack the flat food later,"

Naturally, Wang Manyin would not let the other party leave, and took them to the private plot to cut leeks and green onions.

Since there is pork, there is no need to eat a few small fish for now, let Shaoping and the others take them back to play in the afternoon.

If you want to eat, you can catch again at any time.

When they returned, Lanhua had already made the noodles.

Then, Wang Manyin went to pick up Shaoping and Lan Xiang.

Half a catty of meat is a bit small, and Lanhua specially scrambled a few eggs and chopped it with filling.

Now the roads in the village are muddy, and when you step on them, you will get muddy balls. No mother-in-law or aunt came over to visit the door, so they had a good meal in comfort.

Not to mention, pork and egg flat food tastes better than black nests.

They packed a bag of sorghum and patted flat food, and finally ate it all. Everyone got two tall bowls, even the smallest Lanxiang was no exception.

After dinner, Shaoan called Wang Manyin outside to talk about the new bacterial fertilizer.

"Brother-in-law, the products of the bacterial fertilizer factory have already been produced, and the next step is for the two of us to promote them to the villages. I'm getting more and more confused now, is it all right?"

When things came to an end, he became uneasy again.

"Shao'an, no matter whether it is successful or not, let's do our best. There are so many technicians, and you two are not the only ones who are unqualified." Wang Manyin smiled and comforted, "I will go to Director Guo's place again when I have time. Get in touch more.”

"It happens that our village will plant rice in a while, and you can come to Guanzi Village to promote it."

In later generations, Wang Manyin was used to seeing similar things, and his heart was not disturbed.
