They went home late that day, and on the way they met groups of villagers carrying lanterns up the mountain to look for them. The villagers couldn't stand it anymore, and they tried to dissuade Du Yingying one after another.

Although other people feel that Angelica is very pitiful, but Du Nan thinks that this is just right. A certain person is getting more and more burdened by being praised as an idol, and he just needs to be scolded. After crying for a while, did you become more energetic in the end?

It's good to be scolded more often, and he won't feel that everyone likes him because of his gender, or has high expectations of him because of his gender. After a long time, maybe he can figure it out Reverted to gender.

After all, whether it's sneaking peeing standing up, or squatting peeing in order to disguise, it feels very hard——Du Nan thought.

Anyway, the children are fine, and it is rare for everyone to come to the mountain together. It is early summer, and there are many trees in the mountain. It is the time when there are more cicadas and insects. Look at the lanterns in your hands. Everyone, look at me, I Look at you, I don't know who suggested it first, but in the end, we all started looking for Cicada Monkey together.

Knowing that monkeys are cicadas that have not molted their shells, they originally lived in the soil under the trees. When they are about to mature, they crawl out of the soil and continue to climb up the tree trunk until they shed a layer of shells and become a wet cicada. You know, when the wind blows and the wings become stiff, it can fly to other trees and start calling.

It was only then that Du Nan realized that the cicada monkey, which looked like lumps of dirt, was actually edible. In order to find this little snack, all the old ladies and old men in the village went out on a mission. People follow themselves; aunts and uncles don't give up too much, they think they have good eyesight, and the waves push forward the waves; the older dolls have learned how to find the cicada monkeys from the adults, and they can't bear to look for them by themselves. Du Nan's group of little dolls, no matter what the adults said, opened their small mouths in surprise, holding a big bowl in their hands, and followed the adults behind their buttocks, waiting to catch the cicada monkey.

The original action of looking for people was temporarily switched to the action of looking for monkeys. After finding enough monkeys, everyone didn't leave. The people closest to the mountain went home and brought enough oil, and some people took fruits. The stream washed the cicada monkeys clean, put them into the oil pan one by one, and brought them out plate by plate. Everyone gathered together in a circle, you and me one by one, and the food was delicious.

There was another funny thing during the period. I don’t know if it was because the smell of frying oil was too fragrant at night, or because a certain crane wanted to go out for a walk because he was too full to eat. At the foot of the mountain, eating fried cicada monkeys, while eating, someone saw a chicken walking by.

Then, another...

"Could it be a pheasant? Everyone, watch! Come and catch the pheasant!" Before the rice bowl was put down, someone was about to stand up.

Where there are people, there are gossips, and where there are gossips, there is Du Nan.Being held in his arms by his father to feed the cicada monkey, Du Nan's small eyes looked in the direction of the legendary pheasant, and he immediately recognized that it was his own chicken.

Seeing that someone was about to catch his chicken, at that moment, for some unknown reason, Du Nan immediately grabbed his father's arm and leaned out, and then yelled out the first clear words in his life "Chicken! Chicken! Chicken——" Afraid that others might not understand, he panicked and popped out three more words.

"My family! Chicken!"

That voice, according to the later memories of the villagers, was really loud!

As soon as the deafening little milk sound came out, everyone looked in the direction of Lao Du's house at the same time, and then looked at the place where the chicken was originally found. This time, they saw the big black crane behind the chicken.

Okay, now everyone knows that this is not a pheasant, but a domestic chicken of Du Nan's family.

In fact, you can tell the difference between chicken and pheasant if you look carefully for a while. Isn’t it true that the person who discovered the chicken at the beginning didn’t know much?As soon as the lantern shone, she lost her sight...

In short, everyone later forgot that they came up to the mountain that day to find a few dolls who returned home late. Instead, they remembered the delicious cicada monkey that night, the crane walking the chicken at Du Nan's house, and the first time they spoke Du Nan.

Including Du Nan himself.

***

After knowing that the other party is a man, the more Du Nan looked at the other party, the more he felt that the other party was a man.

His performance is actually quite obvious.

The girl dolls in the village spent their childhood playing, and while playing, they learned how to farm with adults and how to repair farm tools. Those who have inherited the family knowledge may also learn how to make farm tools. Occasionally, they are as ambitious as his grandma (? ), send the dolls to the town school, which is the best; and the boy dolls in the village are even simpler, they also play, but unlike the girls, their games are more on straw mats, and the little ones When they were young, Xinglang took them to learn the basic skills. When they were a little older, Xinglang would take them to learn weaving. Xinglang are all masters of weaving. With Xinglang around, almost all the dolls in the village, regardless of gender, are good at weaving. For example, almost everyone in the village can weave the straw mats that Du Nan and the others use every day, but embroidery is a rare skill in Rabbit Ear Village, and it gradually flourished after Du Nan's father married in.

The different ways of raising male and female children in the village actually foreshadows the difference in the division of labor in the family in the future. Most of the female dolls on their side will shoulder the burden of supporting the family in the future, while the male dolls need to take good care of them. Internal affairs, although the boys also go to the fields to help, but most of them are because the wife-owner has other livelihoods and cannot take care of the family’s fields ← such as his home, because his mother was studying Fa in the town early in the morning, and his father was going to do it when he first married. It’s a pity that they are really not strong enough to work in the fields, and they are just driven home by his grandma; or the wife in the family is really weak-there is no such situation in their village, and the women in their village seem to be quite strong; There is a situation, that is, when the farming is busy, almost both men and women will go to the fields at that time. Of course, capable families still have no chance for men to come to help.

The difference in family division of labor has also shaped the aesthetics of the male and female in the rabbit's ear village. Unlike the town, both men and women are fancy, the aesthetics of the rabbit's ear village is much more simple. The aesthetics of women here are strong, fat and thin. , but it must be strong; the skin should not be too white, too white will make people feel weak; the teeth should also be white, it is best to be cheerful and laugh, people in the village, people in the village, the relationship between the family and the family is very close, ignore people There is no market for her high-cold temperament here.

↑

In short, they are sunny, sporty and healthy women.

The aesthetics of men are not so fixed. Probably, the women in Rabbit Ear Village can eat any type of woman. The men in the village are tall, short, fat and thin, some are rough, and some are weak. If you want to sum up one The common point in aesthetics is that the men in the village are all white.It doesn't matter whether you are crescent white, pink white or pale, as long as you are white!

That's why Du Nan's dark fat made him worry secretly whether he would hit his hands in the future.

Angelica is obviously white, because he has been living in the town before, and he is a little whiter than the whitest man in Tuer Village. Because of farming, he has become so dark unknowingly recently.

Du Nan felt that Dang Gui's mood was a little low, but although he noticed that the other party was in a bad mood, he didn't understand why, until one day, his father insisted on putting a mask on him.

His face was still not fair, and his grandma scolded his father for not doing enough, and then his father began to apply facial masks to him for whitening.

Either paste cucumbers or tofu, and occasionally pearl powder. His father makes a big pot every time, not only for Du Nan, but also for himself.

Then, after applying it every time, Du Nan found that Angelica would look in the mirror for a long time, and when his skin condition improved, his mood would obviously improve.

Du Nan: ...

Only then did he realize why Angelica was in a low mood these days.

He really is a boy...

Native boys.

Just as he is depressed when he is forced to whiten himself every day, it is probably also very depressed for him to be tanned and unable to do anything every day.

After figuring this out, Du Nan couldn't resist being masked twice in three days. Instead of resisting, he even managed to get his mother to buy him sunscreen, sunscreen, and oil from the town!When putting on sunscreen every morning, he still dabs some on his own face and pats some on the other person's face as usual.

Not to mention, this sunscreen is really good to use, and the angelica has not continued to turn black!After the skin had time to recuperate, he gradually returned to white.

Angelica looked at her and became happy again.

If the difference in aesthetics made Du Nan realize that the other party "is a man" for the first time, then what he observed next made him feel that the other party "is indeed a man".

He, Like, Huan, Embroidery, Flowers——When Du Nan realized this for the first time, he felt that the sky was thundering. normal.

Seeing how he often looked at his father's unremarkable embroidery, Du Nan had no choice but to go out again.

Whenever someone came to ask his father for embroidery skills, he would rely on that person to point him into his father's house. In this way, that person could enter his father's house openly and steal the teacher.

Many times, the uncle who asked his father for advice also noticed it, and said in front of his father: "This doll with a belly is really quiet, I can watch you embroider all afternoon, I think he will be able to inherit his father's business in the future, Become another embroidery master in our village!"

As he spoke, he pinched Du Nan's chubby face, and then praised: "Look carefully, the complexion is much fairer, it's great now, it's fair and quiet, and loves to embroider flowers, it will be easy to marry in the future !"

She is fair and quiet and loves to embroider flowers...

easy to marry

Du Nan was silent.

Looking at the man who was still seriously watching his father's embroidery, he felt that his sacrifice was really huge.
