Hello 1983

  Chapter 80 Hospitality

   "I said Qingshan, the place where you live is too remote."

   Gangzi, who was sitting in the bullock cart, still thought it was quite fresh, and complained while looking around.

   Along the way, they got off the train and took the passenger car, and then got off the passenger car and took the bullock cart again.

   "Don't swing your legs, be careful to kick into the wheels."

  Liu Qingshan reminded him, and then asked Wu Jianjun: "Brother Fei, what are your plans for the future?"

  Wu Jianjun took out a cigarette and handed it over. Seeing Liu Qingshan waving his hand, he put it in his mouth. He didn't rush to light it, and didn't answer Liu Qingshan's question. Instead, he stared into the distance and murmured:

   "Qingshan, it seems that you are right, the storm this time is much bigger than I imagined."

   "Okay, as long as there is nothing to do, have fun with us for a few days and relax."

  Liu Qingshan gave a few words of comfort, then suddenly remembered something: "By the way, how is your Russian learning?"

  Hearing his question, Gangzi quickly turned his head away and continued to look at the scenery. Looking at the posture of his **** with an awl, he knew that he would not be able to sit on a stool.

  Brother Fei nodded, "At first, there was no one to teach us, and we couldn't find a teacher. Later, that nurse Li from the hospital found us suddenly and led us to learn from an old expert."

  Gangzi also added: "That little girl is more powerful than the teacher, and I don't know why she is staring at us fiercely, she is really unlucky!"

  Liu Qingshan also turned his head around, and also began to look at the scenery. He decided that it was better not to tell these two people the truth.

  The ox cart was walking slowly on the country road, and Zhang Shuzi, who was driving the cart, was secretly envious: the green hills are still amazing, and there are friends in the city.

  In the rural areas at this time, if someone has relatives or friends in big cities, that is a very glorious thing.

   Every year I go to the city to send some agricultural products, and then I can bring back big and small packages. Although they are all old clothes, the neighbors are still jealous.

  The three people in the back kept chatting, but Gangzi couldn't keep his mouth shut, and he talked enthusiastically. During the period of staying at the job, they also started a clothing business.

  While talking, he stretched the jeans on his legs: "We mainly sell these. It's just become popular in the city. These are called jeans, Qingshan. I'll bring you two, isn't that interesting?"

  Liu Qingshan turned his mouth up: "It seems that the jeans you mentioned, I just bought a pair for my family a few days ago."

   "Oh, what are you rushing to buy? You must have paid a high price. We sell it for only 28 yuan a piece!"

   Gangzi began to complain, with a hint of showing off.

   "It's okay, not too expensive, only fifteen yuan a piece."

  Liu Qingshan looked at him with a smile, and felt that it was necessary to teach this newcomer a good lesson.

   "What the hell, I need twenty-five more to buy!"

  Gangzi stared straight at Liu Qingshan with a pair of eyes: "Where did you buy it from? Your commune certainly doesn't sell jeans, and the county may not have them?"

   "This is far away, Yangcheng. I just went there to participate in the Canton Fair a while ago."

  Liu Qingshan spoke lightly, but to Gangzi's ears, the soft voice was like thunder rolling from the sky, almost making him feel burnt out.

  Yangcheng, he has heard of it a long time ago, it is a colorful world in his eyes, and he vowed to visit it in his lifetime.

  But the little brother in front of me, he walked around quietly, which is too shocking!

  At this time, Zhang Jizi, who was driving the car, added another sentence:

   "What kind of meeting did Qingshan go to, and he helped the county sign hundreds of thousands of dollars in national money. The county rewarded Qingshan with a lot of things, including sewing machines, cameras..."

   Bang bang bang!

  Gangzi felt like there was a sharp-mouthed Grandpa Lei on the top of his head, holding a big chisel in his hand, gouging his skull one by one.

  I bought some jeans by myself, and I can earn three to five yuan for a pair, so I feel that the cowhide is coaxing.

  But Xiao Shanzi, who has already left the vulgar interests, has started to make money.

Clothes!

  Gangzi is completely convinced now, looking at Liu Qingshan eagerly: "Brother, no, brother, you are my brother, when will you take me to Yangcheng to open your eyes?"

   "Okay, don't make trouble."

  Wu Jianjun stopped Gangzi from shouting. To be honest, the blow he received just now was not small.

   But this also further proves that his brother Fei has good vision, and he recognized Qingshan, a capable little brother, as a friend back then.

  He looked at Liu Qingshan calmly: "Tell us about Yangcheng."

   Until Jiapigou, Liu Qingshan said all the way, they listened, it was like a door to a new world slowly opened in front of the two of them...

  The iron wire and other tools were directly brought to Zhang Jizi’s house, and then he led a few brothers to start working. Liu Qingshan asked him to go to the house for dinner and refused to go.

  For those who are afraid of poverty, as long as there is a chance to make money, they will never let it go.

  Liu Qingshan fully understood Zhang Jizi's mood, so he led Brother Fei and Gangzi home.

  Walking on the dirt road in the village, looking at the dilapidated mud houses on both sides, the heartless Gangzi muttered: "Qingshan, your village is really poor."

  Liu Qingshan nodded: "Well, it's very poor now."

  Brother Fei's eyes are much sharper than Gangzi's. He quickly noticed the plastic greenhouses in every household's garden: "Qingshan, what is this for?"

   "Plastic greenhouses for growing vegetables in winter."

   While speaking, Liu Qingshan greeted the big yellow dog who came up to him.

  The big yellow dog shook his head, and even leaned close to Gangzi and Fei Ge to smell it. If he remembered the smell on his body, he would not bite.

  Gangzi suddenly became interested: "Can you grow vegetables in winter?"

  Wu Jianjun's thinking goes further: In winter, if you really want to grow green vegetables, it's no wonder it doesn't make money?

  Perhaps this small mountain village is still very impoverished, but Brother Fei believes that with a capable person like Liu Qingshan, this place will soon take off.

  At the door of the house, Liu Qingshan led the two brothers to grandpa's house first, after all, they all met Liu Shikui when they were in Chuncheng.

  Liu Shikui was also very happy. When he was treating his eyes, the two young people ran back and forth, and they often followed him to help, and they kept thinking about this favor in their hearts.

  He happened to be here, so we must entertain him well.

  Grandma also used a small dustpan to bring pine nuts and hazelnuts, as well as Shanto persimmons stored in the warehouse. These are much higher grade than melon seeds, and they are for entertaining distinguished guests.

  Sandu persimmon is the local name for blueberries, but it is smaller than the later blueberries.

   This kind of mountain fruit has a relatively long storage period. It is blue and covered with a layer of white frost on the surface. It looks very appetizing.

   "It's delicious, the fruit flavor is really strong!"

  Gangzi squeezed a few and threw them into his mouth, and immediately his mouth was filled with a strong fruity aroma, which was a bit intoxicating.

   "Then eat more, it is not easy to eat this in the city."

  Liu Shikui said with a smile, grabbed a handful of hazelnuts, and helped the guest break open.

  In a small mountain village, basically every household has a tool for smashing hazelnuts. It is just a lump of iron with several small pits of different sizes on the surface. The largest one is for smashing mountain peaches, and the smallest is for smashing hazelnuts.

  Put the hazelnuts into the pit, tap lightly with a small hammer, and with a crisp sound, the hard shell on the outside of the hazelnuts is broken, revealing the full flesh inside.

  Gangzi looked at the freshness, so he went up and smashed it himself. His technique was obviously not very good, and he almost hit his finger. Liu Qingshan hurriedly dragged him aside.

  After leaving her grandparents' house, she went to Liu Qingshan's house. Lin Zhi was also very enthusiastic, and directly caught an old hen and slaughtered it.

  This is considered the highest standard of treatment in the countryside, which is equivalent to the first visit of the new son-in-law.

  Liu Qingshan made half a basin of hot water in the courtyard, and began to shed the chicken feathers. Brother Fei and Gangzi were led by Gao Wenxue to go around the shed and the chicken coop.

When    came out, Gangzi was still holding a few small dark green peppers in his hand, each of which was crooked and hooked, and there were small horizontal lines on the surface.

   "This chili is not easy to mess with at first glance, it must be hot and hot!"

   Gangzi likes to eat spicy food, and he said happily.

  The most important thing is that it’s already this month, and it’s not easy to still eat green peppers.

   "Success, steam an egg and chili stuffing later."

  Liu Qingshan glanced at it and said briskly.

  In the greenhouse, he kept the small chili peppers that were originally planted in half a row, cut off the upper branches, and squeezed out the branches from all around, and then blossomed and bear fruit, so that they can be eaten all winter.

  Brother Fei held a few tomatoes in his hand, some were red and some were yellow, they looked very bright.

   This is also a few trees that Liu Qingshan kept, specially for the fourth and fifth to satisfy their greed.

  Gangzi put the chili pepper in a basin, then took a tomato, wiped it with his hands, and took a bite: "Qingshan, your plastic greenhouse must have something wrong."

  Liu Qingshan replied without raising his head: "This year, the main crops are celery, leeks and cucumbers. In the future, there will definitely be more and more varieties of vegetables."

  The old hen in his hand has shed its feathers and is about to open it. The chicken skin is golden and shiny, very attractive.

  The big yellow dog wagged its tail vigorously beside it, playing like a big windmill.

  Although you can’t eat chicken, but you can eat some intestines, some skeletons, etc., it’s considered meat.

   These days, people don’t have enough oil and water, let alone dogs. If they can get some pot water every day, it’s considered good.

   "Wooooow!"

  The big yellow dog barked vigorously.

  At first, Liu Qingshan thought it was waiting in a hurry, but when he looked up, he saw the big dog barking in the direction of the gate.

   Looking over there again, I soon found a sneaky figure, also with yellow hair, wandering back and forth at the gate.

   "Huang Pizi, here to steal chickens again!"

  Liu Jinfeng yelled, and picked up a shovel stuck under the window sill.

  For professional chicken farmers, weasels are absolutely abhorrent to her.

   "Sister, wait!"

  Liu Qingshan hurriedly yelled at the eldest sister, no matter how rampant the weasel was, he would not dare to wander around the house in broad daylight, and he also found that the weasel seemed to have something in its mouth.

   "Huang Pizi came to the door, what good intentions can you have?"

  Liu Jinfeng grumbled, and then heard a click. The weasel threw the thing in its mouth into the courtyard, and ran away without a trace.

  I saw a big fat field mouse lying in the yard!

   But it's not dead yet, its four claws are twitching upwards.

   What happened, the people in the yard were stunned for a moment.

   "Hey, Qingshan, isn't this weasel a gift for your family?"

   Gangzi said with a heartless smile.

  Liu Qingshan gave him a blank look: "Didn't you see guests coming to the house, and I will stew this big vole for you in a while."

   Eating rats?

  Gangzi looked at the half-bitten tomato in his hand, and suddenly felt that it didn't smell good?
