Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was almost 11 o 'clock. Chen Xiaomei said: "I'm going to the market to buy some vegetables." He stood up, and the Huang couple also stood up and prepared to go together.
"No need, we're having a Chinese and Western meal for lunch." Chen Weizheng said with a smile.
"Chinese and Western meal?" Grandma Chen was the first to be interested: "Tell me about it."
"I have something here that you probably haven't eaten in a long time." Chen Weizheng kept them in suspense.
"What is it?" Chen Xiaomei asked.
"Lettuce."
"Tch! That thing is often eaten. "Chen Xiaomei was disappointed.
"I know." Old Master Chen interrupted and said: "Weizheng, are you talking about the lettuce in the garden?"
"Yes!" Chen Weizheng answered, and said proudly: "That's all hand-cultivated, ecological, and pure green plants without any pesticides or fertilizers."
"You can eat it raw!" Grandma Chen realized.
"Let's make lettuce buns!" Chen Xiaomei was not stupid.
"Make lettuce buns! I haven't eaten them for many years! "Old Master Chen said with longing.
"Old Master, who dares to eat the lettuce sold in the city market raw!" Huang Siji said: "I'll go pick the lettuce."
"I'll go with you." Grandma Chen stood up, that was her territory.
"I'll make a pot of congee with pork and century egg. Grandma, you can get some chopped green onions while you're at it." Chen Weizheng said.
"I'll go help you." Chen Xiaomei said. Not long after, the clean lettuce was placed on a tray and placed on the table.
A plate of oven-baked western bread crumbs was set aside for later use.
The Jinhua ham was sliced into slices, roasted in the oven, and set aside. As for the eggs, Chen Weizheng had originally planned to spread them into a large piece and then cut them into small pieces. In the end, he asked Chen Xiaomei to fry ten poached eggs. She said that it was better to eat them one by one.
The last dish on the table was a local favorite sauce: Yellow Peel Sauce.
Looking at the simple food, Liu Dehou was the first one who couldn't help but smack his lips. Without caring about his image, he reached out and picked up a piece of lettuce. He cut off the handle and put it in the middle. He put a layer of bread crumbs on top of it and put a slice of ham on top of it. He didn't forget to put some yellow paste on top of it. He wrapped the lettuce leaves and stuffed them into his mouth. He finished them in two bites and said with satisfaction, "Delicious, delicious. The lettuce is fresh and tender but not crispy."
Agent Huang added, "These ingredients are sold in the city, but we can't find such good lettuce. There are good lettuce in the countryside, but we can't find these ingredients. Weizheng, this isn't just a combination of east and west, but also a combination of urban and rural areas. "
Chauffeur Huang's wife's surname was Wei. She was a teacher at a primary school in the city. She was also a student of Old Master Chen. She was introduced to Chauffeur Huang through Chen Xiaomei. At that time, Liu Dehou was still a deputy county magistrate in the neighboring county of Zuo Zhou. Chauffeur Huang was Liu Dehou's driver. For ten years, Liu Dehou went from Zuo Zhou to Qingshan Town and back to the city. Chauffeur Huang also followed him from Zuo Zhou to Qingshan Town and back to the city. She had always been in the city and didn't change her workplace. She was quite content and didn't want to improve. Because of her excellent teaching skills and good grades, the city made her a school leader. Her reason for declining was, "My husband is a chauffeur and I'm a teacher. We're just right. If I'm a principal and he's still a chauffeur, it's not symmetrical and will affect the harmony of the family. So it's better to stay the way it is now. The husband sings and the wife follows. "This theory became the yearning of all the men in Gu Yi City.
After lunch, a group of people went to the cemetery. This wasn't the season to add soil to the grave, so everyone only took some incense and candles to offer sacrifices. They didn't prepare any animals, only some fruits and sugar cookies.
They lit the candles, inserted the incense, placed the fruits and sugar cookies, and the group of people began to fold the gold and silver paper. Old Master Chen said, "This gold and silver paper is very particular. If it's not folded, it will burn down as loose paper, which is small denomination banknotes. If it's folded, it will become gold bars and silver ingots. This is the only currency that can be used in the underworld. According to the psychic, the other currency that imitates the RMB in the underworld is not used in the underworld. "
In a short while, three piles of gold bars and silver ingots were folded. One was piled in front of his grandfather's grave, one was piled in front of his grandmother's grave, and one was piled in front of his father's grave, Chen Baoguo's grave.
After lighting the fire, thick smoke rose. Liu Dehou stood in front of Chen Baoguo's grave and silently prayed, "Brother Baoguo, it's been another year. I'm really sorry that I haven't come to offer you incense! This time, when Wei Zheng graduates, I'll help you look after him. I'll make sure that he has a good future. "
Chen Weizheng looked at the three piles of incense in front of him and laughed loudly at his grandfather's grave, "Grandfather, weren't you always afraid that there wouldn't be enough incense after you die? This time, it's going to be great! "
Everyone laughed!
Perhaps the Yin spirits heard everyone's laughter and actively participated in it. After the three piles of incense rose into the air, they formed three small spirals in the air, just like three thin tornadoes. They rose high into the air and slowly faded away.
Old Master Chen said to everyone, "Everyone, take a look. This is the best way to offer incense." Seeing that everyone was puzzled, he continued, "If there are tornadoes like this, it means that the ancestors have already received the incense and candles. If there aren't any, it means that they didn't receive much, or they didn't receive anything at all. If they didn't receive anything, it would be a waste."
Everyone looked at the tornadoes and felt that the tornadoes were really spiritual.
"Those of us who haven't died yet, let's drink with the dead!" After saying that, Grandpa Chen took out a bottle of wine and a dozen small paper cups. The wine was grape wine. With one look, it was obvious that it was taken from Chen Weizheng's wine rack. The old man filled the cups and said, "One cup is one cup. Everyone, drink a cup."
He handed the first cup to Little Dian Dian and said, "Dian Dian, you take the lead and say something nice."
Teacher Wei looked at his daughter and was also looking forward to what she would say. Dian Dian thought for a moment and said, "After drinking my toast, please bless me with 100 marks in every exam."
Hearing this, everyone laughed.
Xiao Zhu knew that it was her turn and took the initiative to say, "Uncle, I've never seen you before. In my heart, you're the closest person to me! Please drink this cup of wine. "
Hearing this, everyone's eyes moistened.
Xiao Song knew that he had to say it. In this kind of solemn situation, there was no room for him to have any novel ideas. After thinking for a while, he said, "I know that I didn't do well in the past. In front of Uncle, I swear that I will learn from Cousin in the future and do as well as Cousin."
Everyone's eyes looked straight at Chen Weizheng. Chen Weizheng was stunned on the spot. He didn't know what was worth learning from him at all.
The candles were extinguished. Everyone checked that there were no sparks and left the cemetery.
"Auntie, you go back with Grandpa and Grandma first. I'll go get some fresh food for dinner." Chen Weizheng said.
"I'll go too." Liu Songzhao said.
"I'll be a bit tired. Can you do it?" Chen Weizheng asked.
"Sure, I'll definitely run faster than you. I got 11.7 seconds for the 100m." Liu Songzhao was very proud. This was probably one of his good results.
"I'll go too." The one who spoke was Driver Huang. He guessed that Chen Weizheng was going to get mountain goods. As a soldier, he loved mountain goods.
Driver Huang's name was Cheng Long. He was thirty-six years old and was a farmer's son in Zuo Province. He served as a soldier for a few years and returned to Zuo Province to work as a driver for the county government. He had been driving for Liu Dehou for more than ten years. Driving for the leader required eyes, ears, and heart. He had been driving for Liu Dehou for so many years, but he had never dared to leave the leader behind and act alone like today. In fact, he was afraid that the leader would be worried, so he deliberately followed the leader into the small office.
"You three go. We'll go to the ruins for a walk." Chen Xiaomei was very good at making arrangements.
After setting off a string of firecrackers, everyone left.
The distant mountains were dark, and the nearby mountains were dark. Winters in the Southern Kingdom were different from those in the Northern Kingdom. The trees were still green, and the mountains were still green. Only the grass had turned yellow, and the small bushes had colorful leaves. Some were yellow, some were red, and some were yellow. When they decorated the short hills, they looked very delicate.
Chen Village was located in a valley. If they walked in a straight line from the cemetery, they could reach the village entrance in about ten minutes. If they walked along the foot of the mountain, they would be much further away.
Chen Weizheng and the other two walked along the foot of the mountain.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Chen Weizheng took out an electric light cannon and handed it to Driver Huang. He said, "Let's split the work. Later, Uncle Huang will light the cannon first. Throw it casually, and it'll blow up the yellow feather chicken. I'll shoot the yellow feather chicken. Xiao Song, look after the yellow feather chicken. You're in charge of checking where it lands. "
Driver Huang looked at Chen Weizheng. It's not difficult for me to blow up the yellow feather chicken, but it's not easy to shoot it down. In the past, when there were shotguns, the yellow feather chicken, which weighed about one and a half catty, was basically extinct. After the confiscation of guns, some yellow feather chickens appeared again. Although this kind of chicken didn't fly far, its speed wasn't slow. Generally, they could only be shot with shotguns. Using a single-shot gun wouldn't work. Basically, they couldn't react in time.
Driver Huang was thinking while looking at the terrain. As a good hunter, he knew where the yellow feather chickens were usually hidden. After turning around a ridge, there was a bush on the side of the mountain. He threw an electric light cannon at the bush.
"Peng!" Two yellow feather chickens flew out.
Chen Weizheng already had two small stones in his hand. With a wave of his hand, the two small stones flew out like lightning. The two yellow feather chickens fell to the ground. Driver Huang looked at Chen Weizheng as if he was looking at a ghost. These two stones were fast, accurate, and powerful. They completely exceeded his understanding of stone throwing.
"I hit it." The excited Liu Songzhao ran towards the two prey. His sprinting speed was really not slow.
Bringing the two yellow feather chickens back, Liu Songzhao was extremely excited. He had never hunted in the wilderness before. He had never found food directly from nature.
"Cousin, your stone throwing is really accurate!" Liu Songzhao said.
"Not just accurate, it's godly." Huang Chenglong said: "I've never seen such an accurate stone throwing technique. Only the featherless arrow Zhang Qing from the 《Water Margin》 has this kind of godly skill."
"It's that amazing?" Liu Songzhao really didn't know what was good for him.
"It's quite amazing." Huang Chenglong sincerely praised: "Weizheng, under the premise of your accuracy, how far can you hit it?"
"About fifty meters." Chen Weizheng didn't dare to say further. Knowing that Huang Chenglong wanted to see his stone throwing technique, he casually picked up a piece of hard earth and aimed it at a small tree about forty meters away from the side of the mountain. An arc swept past and the hard earth smashed against the tree trunk.
Liu Songzhao finally saw Chen Weizheng's stone throwing technique. He was also stunned by Chen Weizheng's stone throwing technique. After a while, he asked: "Cousin, when did you learn this technique?"
"When I was young, I liked to hit stones. After hitting them too much, I became like this." He couldn't tell the truth about this matter.
"Cousin, your technique is really amazing. If I could use this technique, I would throw a stone at whoever dares to provoke me." Liu Songzhao began to fantasize.
