When they arrived at the aunt's house, she was busy preparing fresh milk and brick tea. She poured a bucket of water from the well in the yard and boiled milk tea for Lin Mumu.
The aunt's Mandarin was good, and she liked to chat, so she quickly chatted with Lin Mumu.
No wonder Yun Ting ran here. Their village was located in the southeast of Xijiang province, and was considered a relatively hot place. It was quite far from the provincial capital, Wu Mu City.
Originally, the Ha people were also one of the ethnic minorities in Xijiang province. Their population was much smaller than the Eastern Tuer people, but they had also lived in this place for generations and relied on nomadic herding for a living.
In recent years, the state had policies to help the Xijiang province develop agriculture. Therefore, there were technicians who came down to guide them and opened up a piece of arable land on the outskirts of their village, mainly to grow wheat and fruits.
For example, the aunt's family had their own herd of cattle and sheep. Her husband and eldest son were in charge of herding them, and she usually managed the orchard.
This orchard was different from the cattle and sheep. The orchard was contracted, and the fruit trees weren't her own. How much money was paid per year, she could plant them for a year. If the village redistributed the land.
The same was true for wheat and fruits. The land was all there, and the management fee was almost the same. Everyone wanted a better one, so they often sent things to the village chief's house.
"Are there no Han people in your village? You speak Chinese very well. "Lin Mumu also praised the aunt.
"Why not? Every year, there are Han technicians coming, and the teachers in the school are also Han. My youngest son is studying and wants to learn Chinese, so I followed him to learn.
Have you learned Chinese? You can communicate with the technicians and plant fruits better. The technicians come to teach us every year, and if you don't know Chinese, you can't understand. "
Sure enough, they kept pace with the times.
Even in a small mountain village, an ordinary peasant woman also wanted to improve.
At this time, the Ha people's aunt brought the milk tea over and poured a bowl of milk tea for Lin Mumu and Yun Ting, and put a small piece of butter in each bowl.
"Butter milk tea, only our Ha people's distinguished guests can drink it. Try it."
"Really, the milk tea I drank in Wu Mu City didn't have butter in it." Lin Mumu curiously took the cup and was about to drink it.
It was a pity that it was too hot. He had to cool it down a little more before he could drink it.
Seeing that it was noon, the auntie from the Ha Tribe was busy preparing lunch. She said that her youngest son wanted to eat when he came back from school. After the little guy ate, she still had to send food to his father and brother who were herding goats.
Lin Mumu also didn't have anything to do. After drinking the milk tea, she simply sat in her aunt's yard and ate some Begonia fruits. She bought a kilo of them, which was enough to last her for a while.
Auntie was very fond of chatting with people, and when she was cooking, she chattered endlessly with Lin Mumu:
"I heard someone buried explosives in Ebony City again. I just don't understand why those rich officials like to cause trouble.
I feel that the Han people are very good. They are cultured and knowledgeable. If it weren't for the Han people, our village would still be very poor. We would have to live in tents and rely on our cattle and sheep to survive.
Look at the Han technician, he planted fruit trees for us, taught us how to prevent pests, applied fertilizers, and even taught the children.
For example, the pressure well at home was also taught to us by the Han people. In the past, it was very troublesome for us to drink water. We had to carry a bucket and fetch water from the foot of the mountain.
The water we fetched wasn't clean, and if it was trampled by cattle or sheep, there was nothing we could do.
Look at how good this pressure well is, as soon as it's pressed, the water is clear and bright. "
