Fragrance Returned

Ding Xiang thought about the chicken head peak. Feifei's home is relatively close to here. If I sweat a little, I might be able to attract Feifei here.

But she didn't dare. This is in the mountains, not only close to Feifei, but also close to big wild animals.

The sound of weaving and spinning in the main room was still going on. It wasn't until midnight that Yu and Zhang Yu stopped to rest in the house.

The looms and spinning wheels were homemade, old and clumsy. Lilac the loom didn't study it, but Lilac the spinning wheel thought it could be improved, but it's just inconvenient now.

Although Yu has many shortcomings, she is still a hard-working woman. Little girl Zhang Yu is even more diligent and has to do almost all housework.

This is how Zhang came here. So after she married into the Ding family, no matter how hard or tired she was, she felt that her life was much easier than in her parents' family.

This family is all hard-working people. After getting over the difficulty, you can do something with your uncle's family.

The next day, breakfast consisted of a large bowl of sweet potato polenta for each person, salty pickled courgettes, and a boiled egg each for Mr. Zhang and the younger Ding brothers.

Ding Liren and Ding Xiang each gave half of the eggs to Zhang Jinshi and Zhang Qian.

The performance of the little brother and sister made Yu happy and there was a smile in her eyes.

However, she was still a little dissatisfied with Lilac.

They say this little girl is smart, but how smart is she? The half should be given to Jinshan. She gave it to Qian Yatou, and she couldn't take it from Qian Yatou.

After dinner, Ding Liren wanted to follow Zhang Xiaobao and the Jinshan brothers to the mountains to collect mountain products.

It started raining in the middle of the night yesterday. Although the rain was not heavy, the mountain roads were muddy.

Zhang Laozhang and Zhang Dabao disagreed and were afraid that the road would be slippery and they would throw him down.

The two brothers and sisters stayed in the house, one watched Mr. Ding weave baskets made of wicker, and the other watched Zhang Yu and Zhang Qian do their work, and even helped them.

It rained all day and all night, and finally stopped at noon.

Ding Xiang and Ding Liren's anxious mood finally felt better. If grandpa dies, someone will definitely come to take them back to pay their respects. No one came to pick them up, which meant that grandpa was still alive.

As long as grandpa lives, no matter how difficult it is, he will get through it.

After breakfast the next day, Ding Liren went up the mountain as he wished.

Ding Xiang was afraid of getting hot and sweating.

She and Zhang Qian chopped wild vegetables to feed the chickens, then drove the chickens outside to find food, and then came back to pick out the wild vegetables and dry them in the yard. Winter is coming, and dried wild vegetables should be kept as vegetables during that time.

Zhang Laozhang was sitting in the yard weaving willow baskets, calling Lilac to take a rest from time to time.

There are so many birds in the yard these two days.

The dates on the tree were almost ripe, and the Zhang family thought the birds were attracted by the dates. As soon as the birds came, they would chase them away with long sticks.

Under the blue sky, there are several eagles soaring high in the sky. Sometimes high and sometimes low, vigorous and powerful.

Lilac especially hoped that Feifei would be among those eagles.

She stood up and jumped on her feet and shouted, Feifei, Feifei...

Zhang Qian shouted after her, her voice much softer.

The crisp sound of children echoed in the valley.

The eagles not only did not come down, but soon flapped their big wings and flew to the end of the sky.

Lilac's heart drifted away with them, and it was all in vain.

After lunch, Zhang Xiaobao took his nephew to the river to fish.

Ding Xiang and Ding Qian went together making a fuss.

They went out through the back door and walked down to the river for more than a quarter of an hour.

This is the upper reaches of Baishui River. The river is fast and shallow, so it is not suitable for boating. People fish on the shore.

Zhang Xiaobao did not allow them to come down, so he and Zhang Jinshan rolled up their trousers, fixed a fish basket between two rocks, and then took out a fishing net and spread it down.

After working for most of an hour, I only caught a few fish weighing more than half a catty. There were even smaller fish and they were thrown into the river. Small fish are only delicious if fried, and oil is expensive, so you can’t bear to fry fish.

Suddenly, several more goshawks appeared in the sky.

There are not many opportunities to see eagles outside the mountains, but they are often seen in the mountains.

Ding Xiang shouted excitedly, Feifei, Feifei...

Several children shouted after her, and the big birds flew farther and farther to the end of the sky.

Ding Xiang was disappointed when she heard the shouts of Zhang Xiaobao and Zhang Jinshan.

They caught a big fish weighing four or five kilograms and a half-big fish weighing two kilograms.

This kind of good luck is rare, and several people went home happily.

Halfway through, Zhang Xiaobao exchanged the two-pound fish for four apples at a family that had planted an apple tree, specifically to entertain his little brothers and sisters.

The apples are red apples, not big in size, and taste similar to our own green apples.

Seeing the big fish, Zhang Laozhang was so happy that his face flushed. He asked Zhang Yu to kill the big fish and pickle it, and then sell it for money.

The fish in the mountains are more delicious than the fish outside, and they are so plump that they can be sold at a good price.

Xiaoyu cooks soup and drinks it at night.

After Ding Xiang finished eating half of the apple, she held her chin in her hands and looked at the sky in trance. Suddenly she saw a big bird streaking across the sky from far to near.

She stood up again and shouted, Feifei, Feifei...

She didn't expect the big bird to really fly, but she couldn't help but scream.

Ding Liren, Zhang Jinshi, and Zhang Qian also shouted after her.

The big bird's wings were wide and powerful, rising and falling suddenly, and suddenly it swooped down and landed in the yard.

Only then did everyone see clearly that it was a leopard eagle.

Zhang Xiaobao picked up the fishing net and wanted to throw it over. Leopard eagles are extremely alert and generally do not appear in front of people. If you catch a leopard eagle, you can sell it for enough money to feed your family for many years.

But Lilac ran over and hugged Leopard Eagle.

Feifei, it's really you. Why haven't you seen me for so long? I miss you so much.

Feifei cried Coo and buried his head in her arms.

Ding Liren also rushed over, Feifei, I saw you again, why didn't you visit my house?

Ding Xiang raised her head and saw what was in the eyes of the Zhang family.

My family has feelings for Feifei, but this poor family does not. In their eyes, this is a valuable leopard eagle.

Ding Xiang pointed to the bandage on Feifei's leg and said, This is the bandage I tied for it. When Feifei was less than one year old, his leg was broken and it fell into my house. My grandfather healed his leg and released it. Mountain forest. It is so smart that it flies home to see us every year.

Last year, I brought a big red apple to my family. Dad said the red apple symbolizes good luck, and Feifei came to bring good luck to my family. Grandpa said it is a condor, and we must respect it. He held Feifei's little one again. The head said, Feifei, my grandpa is seriously injured. You must help grandpa survive.

Ancient people were superstitious and said it was a divine eagle. No matter how fantasy it was, they would not dare to touch it.

Feifei looked at Ding Xiang tenderly, Gu Gu Gu Gu.

Ding Liren was so smart, he immediately understood what his sister meant. He also quickly said, Feifei Feifei will come to grandpa's house and bless his family.

Seeing the leopard eagle's gentle eyes, and hearing that it actually visited the Ding family every year and even gave the Ding family a red apple, the Zhang family members were in disbelief.

Zhang Laozhang asked Zhang Xiaobao to bring out a small fish to feed the condor, and Feifei ate it in a dignified manner.
