Wen Family Has a Wife

Hearing this, Wen Youshan pondered, "Do you have to have mutton? Is venison ready?"

"Is there venison?" Chen Ningya's eyes lit up, why hasn't she seen it in the mountains in her last life?

Wen Youshan hurriedly said: "Yes, but it is not in our mountain range. We have to go to my grandfather's side. There are deer in their boundary, but it is far away. I’m afraid it will take five or six days to hunt deer in the mountains, so I’ll go after Shangliang and deliver something to my uncle’s house by the way.

Chen Ningya smiled with satisfaction, "It's very good."

Wen Youshan was dazzled by this smile, his stomach became hot, and the eyes of Chen Ningya instantly became hot.

The young ones couldn't understand, and the youngest Wen Yuanxing was still pestering Chen Ningya to tell stories after dinner, and was sent back to sleep by Wen Youshan.

One night was harmonious, and the next day, Wen Youshan went out full of energy, and Chen Ningya slept until her daughter came to call the door.

She was a little embarrassed when she walked out of the room, but Wen Yuanzhen was so worried, "Mother, if you're too tired, don't be busy today, I'll just work with a few aunts."

Chen Ningya was embarrassed, she just said that it was all right, and she insisted on doing the preparatory work.

In the next few days, there was no more trouble in the village, and the progress on the Wen family's side was much faster, and they were ready to go up in less than three days.

On the day of Shangliang, Chen Ningya specially asked Wen Youshan to buy a pig's head and trotters, and made a rich table to worship God. After the worship, those things were their food today.

Ordinary people want to use a pig's trotter or a pig's head to make a hard dish, but Chen Ningya has cooked them all, the pig's head is marinated in sauce, and the pig's trotters are braised. Meimei ate a meal and worked harder. She fixed the beams in two days.

After the end of the beam, the weather suddenly became a little gloomy, and the temperature dropped several degrees at once. Huang Ergou went out early in the morning. Seeing that the weather was not right, his brows were frowning, and he hurriedly greeted those people to speed up the progress.

At this time, Wen Youshan was planning to leave for his grandfather's house.

Chen Ningya looked at the sky and worried, "It's cold so early this year, I'm afraid this winter will be difficult."

"It's alright, our house is all new, it will be alright, it will take me a few days to go out this time, you and the children should be vigilant. I went to the county town to buy a bell, and led a rope along the courtyard wall. , I will pull the rope on the door when I come back, you can know if it is me standing at the door by the sound of the bell, and if someone knocks on the door at night, don't open it casually." Wen Youshan reminded again road.

The method of using the bell was inspired by him when he went to the school. With the bell, he wouldn't have to roar outside the yard in the middle of the night to disturb people's dreams.

Chen Ningya wrote down his words one by one, and then moved the things to the donkey cart, "I heard you say that the uncle's side is more sad than our side, but unfortunately I didn't have time to prepare the cloth, and there are still a few large pieces of cloth left at home. , you bring it, you can make some clothes, these are the shell meat I saved, and I keep a big bag at home, you can take the remaining big bag with you, and these are dried kelp, these are Dried fish, two bacon, a basket of eggs, and a bundle of vegetables, I haven't prepared any food for you, but I have some taro, tell your uncle and let him plant it."

Wen Youshan's uncle, Chen Ningya, had never met. When Mrs. Zhang was here, she seldom talked about her family's affairs, but Wen Youshan said that they were all honest people, but life was really hard. So he specially prepared some more. Anyway, how many times a year can he walk around so far away?

Wen Youshan smiled and watched Chen Ningya toss around like a hamster, and then set off after a while with her.

The Zhang family is located in Zhangjiagou, an inner mountain 30 miles away from Fushan Village. Surrounded by mountains, it is much more closed than their side. If there are no special circumstances, the villagers will not leave the village, let alone the so-called town market. This kind of thing, at most, is to follow the merchants in the village to buy some necessities for life, and even if he is sick, he will pick up some herbs and carry it by himself.

Wen Youshan did not arrive at Zhangjiagou until noon the next day.

To be honest, he also visited his mother when he was a child. At that time, his grandfather and grandmother were still alive. Now the old couple has already been buried in the ground. The Zhang family's house is in the middle of the village. Some of the thatched houses are built with adobe, and some are directly surrounded by bamboo and straw mats. This kind of house is impossible to live in in winter, but there are really many houses in Zhangjiagou, and the villagers are dressed in rags. , The expression is numb, and the child is running around with bare buttocks. It is late autumn, and he is not afraid of catching a cold.

Wen Youshan found his uncle Zhang Jin's house with a heavy heart, and when he saw the house, Wen Youshan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle, are you at home?" Wen Youshan stopped the donkey cart at the door and shouted.

Zhangjiagou is different from Fushan Village. Every household has only a house and no yard, and the donkey cart stops directly in front of Zhang Jin's house.

Two naked boys ran out of the room, and then a woman came out with her child in her arms. She looked at Wen Youshan with a strange look of vigilance, and asked in a heavy accent, "Who are you looking for?"

Wen Youshan was stunned for a while before he understood what she was talking about, and hurriedly said, "Is this my uncle's house? My uncle's name is Zhang Jin."

The woman was obviously stunned. She hugged the child and hurriedly called the two boys to call the man back home. While waiting, Wen Youshan sat bored on the donkey cart, surrounded by curious children, and some villagers came to ask for news. But Wen Youshan couldn't understand what they were talking about at all. If he hadn't been sure that this was Zhangjiagou, he really didn't want to stay, and it wouldn't feel very good to be looked at as a monkey.

It took a while for the two children who ran out to get into the crowd, and Wen Youshan finally saw his uncle, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Zhang Jin came over to identify it carefully, and was shocked, and asked in a local accent, "Nephew, why are you here?"

No wonder Zhang Jin was so surprised. He had met twice since Wen Youshan was born. One was when Mrs. Zhang brought him back to visit relatives when he was a child, and the second was when Mrs. Zhang buried him. , other than that the two hardly move around.

Wen Youshan grinned and called his uncle. After getting off the donkey cart, he hurriedly removed the contents of the cart and said, "I just want to come here to hunt and see if I can get a deer back. This is my wife's gift to my uncle and uncle. Mother prepared it."

Zhang Jin's mother-in-law, Mrs. Fang, was standing on the side. Seeing Wen Youshan coming over, it was a mixed blessing. Seeing that he brought so many things, all those worries were dissipated. Only then did he warmly invite Wen Youshan into the house to drink water.
