Chapter 212

The two young men only brought a plate of stinky tofu and left. 8 9 Read 网 www . 8 9 read . Not long after, Wei Dalang and Tu Dalang came over again.

Tu Dalang was still the big, thick, casual man. He had been groomed, and there was no smell of fat or meat. Kui Dalang, on the other hand, seemed a little more reserved. However, after he was drunk and his ears were warm, he also joked about meat and vegetables.

The atmosphere suddenly became lively.

The wine was delicious with coriander and vegetables, and it didn't take long for the two big men to drink.

.The swallows are beginning to cry, and the snow in the forest has not yet melted. But when we arrive in this land of Jingchu, it is already a good time for the rivers to thaw, the grass to sprout green shoots, the wind to wet our clothes, and everything to relax! In the cold, Tanzhou City

Although I still had to bring the New Year magpies, the crowds were gradually declining. But for some reason, once I left the city and reached the wilderness, it became more lively.

As soon as we left the city, we could smell the freshness of earth in the air.

On the wet soft earth where green buds have just appeared, two big buffaloes with black skin and big horns, carrying big red flowers, their horns fighting against each other, their feet already dug into the ground, their long noses breathing thick white mist, and their mouths

The low cry of "Mang Mang" spread throughout the countryside.

Next to the big buffalo, there were countless adults and children. They all chose a cow and were dancing and cheering for the two big cows.

Next to them, there were boys of several years old, each holding a large gong and banging it vigorously. The sound of "dang-dang-dang-dang" swayed from the fields, along with the braying of cows and the voices of people, as if they were about to bring the coming of heaven.

arrive.

Li Xingzhi and the other three stopped and watched the old bulls fighting with great interest. The two women next to them looked at the two big buffaloes. One secretly cheered for one of them, while the other was like those old peasant children, shouting loudly and dancing with their hands and feet.

.

After a while, one of the cows couldn't stand still and only took a step back. The other one roared low and took the opportunity to exert force, like a bulldozer, and pushed and pulled it directly.

Win or lose!

The girl in red looked at the defeated buffalo and gritted her teeth. She just wished she could fight him with her own body. But the girl in white next to her showed a slight smile on her cold face, just like the spring breeze blowing across the lake.

The fresh water ripples.

The three people came suddenly and then drifted away. The air was still filled with cheers and laughter, spreading far away...

A few people were "down to earth" and walked slowly, like tourists embracing each other, looking very leisurely. However, it took an hour for ordinary people to travel, but within a quarter of an hour, they were walked by three people, and they quickly arrived at their destination——

Wangjia Village.

It is said to be 'Wangjia Village', but it is actually just a few dozen houses gathered together, with no obstructions around it, and no plaques or monuments. However, most of the people living there are named Wang, so people outside gave it a name.

.

Li Xingzhi looked at the village in front of him. Although it had been a few years, it had not changed much. The only change was that the inside and outside of each house were hung with various food crops for New Year and winter storage. On the side of the front hall and on the opposite side of the house.

I picked up muddy sweet potatoes one by one, which looked very pleasing.

It was noon at this time, and all along the way, there was smoke from the cooking pots, and the food was fragrant.

Li Xingzhi walked towards the village with his two girls, and they were familiar with the roads. Soon, they stopped in front of a courtyard.

This courtyard looks quite tidy, and from the looks of it, it should be cleaned regularly; unlike other houses, the door is closed, there are no fireworks, and the outside of the house is not like other houses where there are piles and hangings of all kinds of things.

Tools, food.

This is where Li Xingzhi stayed before.

Li Xingzhi looked at the extremely clean and tidy courtyard, nodded inwardly, and secretly thought that he had seen the right person. Wu Laoliu was also a man who knew how to be grateful.

He took out the key, fiddled with it a few times on the copper lock, and with a "click", the copper lock opened. As soon as the locked iron chain was pulled out, the door creaked, and he let it go.

Li Xingzhi was about to walk in when he heard the sound of footsteps. In a nearby house, from the dark doorway, a fair-skinned farm girl with a bit of fireworks smell hurriedly walked out.

Followed by a large dog with golden fur and folded ears.

As soon as the rough-dressed woman saw the open door, she was about to say something. When she saw Li Xingzhi's face clearly, the words she was about to spit out came back into her mouth. She walked forward, looking a little shy, as if she was at a loss.

, I don’t know what to do.

Li Xingzhi didn't recognize the woman in rough clothes, but he recognized the waist-high dog next to her. If nothing else, you can tell the relationship just by looking at the appearance of the rhubarb.

The big dog purred a few times, sniffed close to Li Xingzhi's body, and its tail, which was originally a bit thick, actually started to wag happily.

"Are you - Liu family? From the Wu Laoliu family?"

The girl in coarse clothes was the young widow of Wangjia Village in that day, Mrs. Wang Liu. Wu Laoliu had spotted her a few years ago. Originally, there was no difference between good and bad, so they couldn't get married, but with Li Xingzhi's support,

Wang Xiucai used some tricks and finally achieved good things.

Mrs. Liu, who had rarely seen outsiders and was a little at a loss, now calmed down a little, bowed respectfully, and nodded softly in response to Li Xingzhi's question.

"Where's Wu Laoliu?"

"I'm going to the fields. I'll be back later." His voice was still soft and reserved.

When Li Xingzhi heard this, he lost interest in talking about anything else. After all, she was a woman in the inner chamber, and it was not good for her to talk about all kinds of things.

The customs of the Tang Dynasty were heavily influenced by Hu Feng in the north, especially in the Chang'an and Luoyang areas, and the folk customs were civilized. However, in the south, they were still very conservative, and the restrictions on women were also very heavy.

"We're going into the house first. If Wu Laoliu comes back, ask him to come over." After that, he nodded to the woman and walked into the house.

The room was as clean and tidy as the outside. The few people carried only a few light items, and only the bed cover was laid out, which was enough.

The wood was split and neatly stacked aside. They were all cut from fine pine wood.

Li Xingzhi took a few sticks and put them under the stove. There was a sound on the metal collision, and a spark fell, "Pfft!", and suddenly it became a prairie fire. The flames burned more and more, and finally turned into a raging fire. There was also a faint smell in the fire.

The scent of pine wood comes out.

On the beam, a thick hemp rope hangs straight down, and an iron wok is tied below.

Li Xingzhi put some water into the wok, then added countless small pieces of beef dipped in salt and a lot of potato chunks. Finally, he covered the lid and simmered it. I believe that when the lid is opened again, there will be a pot of stewed beef and potatoes.

Then you can enter. (To be continued.
