The Garden Life of a Little Gardener

The name Zhou Zhou is a specific designation. Among all the people who know Zhou Quan, or those who know him well, there is only one person who will call him that.

"Brother Baoyan? Brother Baoyan!!! It's really you, you're back!!!"

Finally seeing the person he met, Zhou Quan was so excited that he jumped up and down like a child, and happily ran to meet him.

Just like when they were children, Baoquan stretched out his hands and rubbed the top of Zhouquan's head indiscriminately. The familiar touch made him feel good, and the corners of his raised mouth became more and more curved.

"Brother Baoyan, when did you come back? Why didn't you get out of the car just now? I thought you were robbed halfway."

Hearing this, the tall man rubbed the tip of his nose with the back of his hand, and said with some embarrassment: "I haven't been back for a long time, I was afraid you wouldn't recognize me, so I didn't dare to come down."

Seeing that the other party was the same as when he was a child, when he was embarrassed, he still subconsciously touched the tip of his nose with the back of his hand, Zhou Quan couldn't help but smiled and said: "Hey, how can you think so, we grew up together, and we wore a pair of trousers. How could I not recognize you, it's too small to look down on people. Don't say that I haven't seen you for ten years, even if I meet again in 20 or 30 years, I will definitely recognize you at a glance."

"Hey, what's that look on your face? Don't you believe what I said?"

"I believe it, because I am the same, just a back view, I know it must be you from a distance."

Zhou Quan was silent at first when he heard the words, then he stood on tiptoe and reached out to give the other party a big hug.

"Welcome back, Brother Baoyan."

The body of the tall man who was hugged suddenly was still a little stiff at first, but when the warm body like a little sun wrapped him up as he remembered, Baoyan relaxed himself and hugged him back.

In the mutual embrace, the ten-year gap disappeared in an instant, and the tacit understanding that accompanied each other returned to the two people.

Putting the leather jacket on his arms, Baoquan led Zhouquan into his Ford Raptor, and continued driving towards the village while asking, "Where are you going? Go back to the second floor or go to Grandma Chen's house?"

Zhou Quan was eager to share the news of his friend's return with others. Hearing this, he looked down at his clothes and pants, and found that although there was some dust from cleaning the flower shed, there was no oil stains or anything, and it was still pretty decent.

In this case, it doesn’t matter if you don’t change it, just go to my aunt’s house and sweep it with a feather duster.

Thinking so, Zhou Quan put on his seat belt and said, "Go to my aunt's house, my cousin and uncle will be happy to see you."

The tall man who drove the car smiled when he heard this, without any doubt about it.

Everyone in the village knows that the Bao family, Zhou family and Chen family across the river in the village are the best-connected families. From the older generation to the younger generation, they have known each other for decades like a family.

No matter who came back to the village, the members of the three families would visit the other two except for their own family.

The pickup truck drove all the way to the door of Chen's house. The old watchdog of Chen's house barked a few times when he saw the Ford Raptor, but when he saw Zhou Quan and Bao Yan who drove down, it shrugged. Its nose twitched a few times, and its eyes were a little suspicious, but it recognized Zhouquan's scent, stopped barking, lowered its head obediently and wagged its tail at them.

On the contrary, the big gander was still dutiful, waddled out of the goose nest, and yelled at Zhouquan and the others.

In the eyes of the big gander, Zhou Quan is its defeated opponent. For this kind of guy who is afraid of him and needs to be protected by his master before he dares to enter the yard, he is never polite, and he will drive people away if he seizes the opportunity.

Zhouquan, who was regarded as a softie by the big goose, hugged the pillar of the main gate of Chen's house and wanted to cry without tears. The contempt and provocation in the big goose's eyes could be seen without guessing.

The swaying gander approached Zhouquan slowly like a joke, forcing him to back all the way, and finally his back was pressed against a warm chest.

"You're still afraid of those flat-mouthed, winged guys."

Hearing the suppressed smile in the other party's words, Zhou Quan was extremely embarrassed, even if he was teased by the big goose, now his good friend came to tease him.

The self-defeating Zhouquan nudged the other party angrily with his back elbow and said, "Who is to blame? If it wasn't for being chased by your big goose and running around the village when I was young, and even being cut to the root of my thigh, I would have left my childhood in my heart." Shadows, to the extent that you are still afraid of these things when you grow up?"

The other party smiled lightly when he heard the words, Bao Yan thought he was cute no matter how he looked at his presumptuous words, like a kitten whose hair was blown up, he was struggling to hook his paws and meow.

As the gander got closer and closer, Zhouquan's body became more and more stiff.

Feeling that the back leaning on his chest was as stiff as a wooden plank, Baoyan put away his smile and looked up at the provocative gander.

The big gander, who was swaying and complacent, was stared at by the young man and stopped, and stood at the door, poking his head, not daring to move.

Mother of the goose, what kind of look is that, why does that person seem to want to stew the goose so much?

When the blade-like gaze passed over the goose, the big gander only felt that the other party was plucking his hair, deboning, skinning and dismantling his flesh, and after chopping it into dozens of pieces, he thought about how to do it himself.

One eye is stewed, two eyes are braised in soy sauce, three eyes are braised in sauce, four eyes are roasted, and finally only the bones are left.

No, looking at that person's current expression, it seemed that he didn't even want to keep the bones. He dismantled the skeleton and threw it into the soup pot to boil, and stewed it into high soup for the boiled noodles in his arms.

The gander, who is a food ingredient, finally met his nemesis after dominating the village for many years, a creature called a chef who was born to stand at the top of the food chain.

The big gander, who instinctively sensed the danger, finally got smart for a while. Faced with the natural restraint attribute, the fighting goose retreated timidly.

Well, bullying the weak and fearing the strong is in line with the survival rules of the poultry industry.

Seeing that Zhouquan was still angry, Baozhen pursed his lips, smiled lightly and said, "Still angry? Don't be angry, didn't I avenge you later? As a punishment, I had to chop radish pies for three days."

This is talking, looking at Xiao Zhouquan who was crying with bruises on his thighs, Baozhen, who was still in elementary school at the time, entered the kitchen without saying a word, picked up a kung fu knife and chased down his big goose, and finally succeeded in killing the big goose. Turned into a pot of stewed goose.

Xiao Zhouquan, who was crying with snot and tears, was coaxed by the pot of stewed goose.

And the reason why Grandpa Bao punished his grandson to cut up the radishes for three days was not because the grandson stewed his own goose.

Grandpa Bao punished Bao Yan because Zhou Quan had eaten too much at the time and was overwhelmed with indigestion. In the end, he had to go to the village health center to prescribe medicine for digestion.

Xiao Zhouquan, who was full of food, took digestive medicine for three days at home, and Xiao Baoyan, who had stewed the big goose, chopped radishes for three days. The cut radish strips, radish cubes, and radish slices had to be sent to Zhou's family. Let Xiao Zhouquan digest food smoothly with...

Zhou Quan's face turned red as soon as he thought of the picture of himself eating carrots with his belly stretched out when he was a child. It's hard to bear to look at this black history.

Why was I so greedy at the time, why was I so greedy?

When I was doing a thorough self-reflection, I heard the person behind me say: "I brought back a lot of seasonings from Suizhou, can I cook roast goose for you sometime?"

Saying so, Bao Yan glanced at the fighting goose in the yard, and the big goose clamped its wings and quickly hid in its harem group.

Zhou Quan, who was introspective at first, nodded immediately when he heard the words, and he had long forgotten about the greedy things.

As a child, no one knows Brother Baozhen's cooking skills better than him, so it's not because he is greedy, but because Brother Baozhen's cooking skills are so good that he can't control himself.

When passing through the yard and entering the door, the frightened gander finally plucked up the courage to look up, but happened to meet Baoyan's gaze.

Terrified by the skinning and deboning eyes of the other party, the battle goose immediately buried its head under the wings of the mother goose beside it and shivered.

Baoyan: Sooner or later, I will stew you to add vegetables to Zhou Zhou

Big gander:  …

The author has something to say:

I don’t know what poultry is like in other places. Anyway, those small animals in our family are bullying and fearful. Those two roosters who caused trouble have seen me detour since they lost to me. Continue to rob.There used to be a domestic dog in the family, which chased and barked people who were afraid of it. My dad was not afraid of it, and because it chased people and kicked it several times, as a result, whenever my dad went back to his hometown, it never barked. Wagging tail affectionately.My uncle can't do it, because he is afraid that the dog will be discovered by that dog, and every time he comes over, he will be blocked, and the barking is very funny, so it is really difficult to mix in the village if the value of force is not good, animals dare to despise it... ....
