far and near

The field trip to Songyang was to take advantage of the abundant tea trees in spring, so Yinxiu bought a scooter and drove it to pick up Yu Ren, and then took a detour to pick up Yuan Liu and Su Hai.Yu Ren said that these two children don't have many opportunities to go out to play, spring outing is still a matter of elementary school, let's take advantage of the weekend to build a team together.Uo is busy performing, let's bring her along next time.

The venue for the team building was Yu Zhuang's grandparents' house. Hu Zefen made preparations a few days in advance and cleaned out two other rooms for the guests to live in.The family has not been lively for a long time, and even Yu Wenzhao happily prepared the special mountain fresh food.

Yinxiu's car was parked in the parking lot on the hillside. They had just got off the car. Yu Ren did not expect that the first person he saw was the village party secretary and distant cousin Yu Tianqi. "The leader is inspecting, how can I not accompany him?" The glibness made Yu Ren slightly frown, "Cousin, I'm not a leader, I just write materials."

And Yu Tianqi said that you are the leader, who doesn't know that Cai Cai, you are now Deputy Mayor He's secretary?His words made Yu Ren straighten his expression, "Cousin, I declare in advance that this has nothing to do with my work." But it was convenient to have an acquaintance take her around Yuzhuang. She called her grandparents and said Go home later.

A few people followed Yu Tianqi to see the existing tea factories in the village.The scale is not large, but it is very lively.Yu Tianqi said that this year's Mingqian tea harvest was good, and many people in the village sent tea to the factory. Several green tea machines were rustling, and the scent of green tea made the group take a deep breath.

"The old man's own tea mountain has doubled, but the old couple still fry the tea manually, which is really tiring." Yu Tianqi said that the old party secretary had a prejudice against machine-fried tea. to the factory for processing.While talking, he looked at Yinxiu who bent over to pick up the tea and sniffed it. Unlike Yu Ren who was sitting in the office, this girl looked shrewd and calm, her eyes were calm and restrained, she looked like a businessman.

Yin Xiu put down the tea leaves and nodded, "Which one is better, machine-fried or hand-fried, we have to compare."

Yu Tianqi said that there is a tea room in the factory, and I asked the boss to make two kinds of tea, and everyone sat down and tasted it.Seeing his enthusiasm, Yu Ren knew there was something famous here. She exchanged glances with Yin Xiu, and Yin Xiu asked, "Then try it?"

Adults are busy with business, so Su Hai can't stay idle. She came to Yu Zhuang once, but she only stayed for more than an hour, and her activities were limited to the yard of Yu Kaiming's house.Today I came here for a spring outing. Xiaoliu said that there are fish in the creek of Chashan Mountain in Yuzhuang, so you can go fishing.It's a pity that it came early and the mulberries were not yet ripe.Su Hai wanted to take Xiaoliu to go fishing first, anyway, she had lived here before and was familiar with the roads.And Yuan Liu put one hand to her mouth to signal her to be calm, and then sat firmly beside Sister Yu Ren, imitating her and staring at the tea in the glass.

"Xiao Liu, do you want to try it too?" Yu Ren looked at Yuan Liu.

The little girl took a sip of a cup of tea with darker eyes, smacked the taste seriously and said, "The sweetness of this cup comes late, and the taste is a bit more astringent."

Yu Tianqi said that the little girl can still drink tea, yes, you can try another cup.

Yuan Liupin's eyes on the other cup were greener, "This cup of tea is lighter to me." She looked into Yu Ren's eyes with shyness, "I don't understand tea."

Yu Ren said that Xiaoliu's speech was excellent, and she and Yinxiu also started to taste it. Only Su Hai didn't touch the cup, and took out the thermos from his backpack to drink wolfberry tea.But her movements were gentle, as if influenced by the tea tasters in the room, and she was even more afraid of disturbing the tea floating in their cups.

Yu Tianqi chatted over tea, this factory belonged to his eldest brother, and Yuzhuang had long been a well-known wealthy village, but it was only in the [-]s, because it used to rely on silk and farming to make money, and these industries are now more profitable. getting thinner.The people of Yu Zhuang either rely on their family resources to support themselves, or they think of other ways out.

Yu Ren is very familiar with these things, "One trick can only last for a while, and it is indeed necessary to constantly open up new avenues."

"Some people are lucky and bought a few houses when the housing price was low. Some people are lazy, and the new way is to raise funds and lend money. This makes them rich quickly, and no one can afford it if something goes wrong." Yu Tianqi chatted about several volumes in the village. People who entered the loan, "Three of them went in, and the longest sentence was five years. Don't think it's easy to live in it. Two legs were broken by the bastard." He said angrily, because he was also deceived. 10,000+ in vain.

When Yinxiu heard this, she bowed her head and said nothing, Yu Ren immediately finished and said, cousin, let's go for a walk, go back and discuss, if you need tea here, let's contact again.

Hu Zefen had already prepared the meal and waited for them. When she saw Su Hai and Yuan Liu, she stretched out her hand and gestured her head in fright. This girl is beautiful, and her temper is gentle at first sight.He pretended to be angry with his granddaughter, "I won't come back for many days, and I won't bring a boyfriend when I come back!"

It was this meal that cheered up Su Hai. She ran back and forth serving dishes and bowls. The happier she ate, the more satisfied Hu Zefen was.Yu Wenzhao just said with emotion, "Why didn't such a good girl bring back a young man?" Yu Ren and Yin Xiu looked at each other and smiled after hearing this.

After eating, the two chatted in the yard, and Yinxiu fed the goldfish in the pond, "If they are put into rivers and streams, I don't know if they will survive. People are used to it."

Yu Ren said that people are different from fish, and some people are destined to drag others down for a lifetime. , Some people are tough grass, which can't be cut without burning.During the meal, she heard her grandma talk about Yu Kaiming's family, "I borrowed money everywhere to buy a house for my son, but I couldn't afford it, so I transferred the tea garden." Now the couple and their daughter are working in Baizhou to support the house. My home is empty.My son is in junior high school in Baizhou, "I don't live up to expectations, I can't get in the books, and I play games and fight all day long. His mother doesn't buy him that apple, so she throws things at home and loses her temper."

"How does it feel to go for a walk without Maosheng by your side?" Yu Ren asked Yin Xiu again.

fine.Yinxiu said that Maosheng treated her like a child at first, and she had to arrange everything in life, and then let it go to herself a little bit, "Later I said, I just stayed in there for a few years, and my hands, feet, and brains were all in turmoil. It’s not useless.” Then she suddenly realized, and dragged me to buy a car the next day, “It’s not expensive, but it was bought for me by Uo.” Yin Xiu smiled, “I have to use her money first, so that she Only then can I live in my new house with peace of mind."

"Usheng's company is different from before." Yinxiu recalled the past, "We were too young at that time, and felt that being together was dry saving money and getting tired of getting off work." Speaking of this, she felt a little guilty, " These were... supposed to be yours."

"It's not mine until it falls into my hands." Yu Ren said that she understood, the two of them were uncertain, and no matter how hard they worked, they felt that it was useless.

"Yes, the company used to be very hard, but now it's a natural and comfortable state. Just like at this moment, Uno didn't accompany me to Songyang, and I miss her very much... But I think she has been with me all the time." When Yin Xiu said Yu Ren, I realized that life is not about pouring all kinds of sugar cubes and honey juice into the bottle. You have to allow it to be bitter, sour, hot, and even smelly in some corners.Only when you put various colors and seasonings in your heart, you will know how sweet it is.

"I have been bitter since I was a child, so I attach great importance to sweetness. In this way, I can't grasp the sweetness, because I don't believe that I can always taste that kind of taste, and I try my best to keep that taste. I say this, no Do you understand?" Yin Xiu said that I hadn't read any books, so I didn't know how to describe it.

"You speak very well." Yu Ren fetched a cup of tea for Yin Xiu from the small table behind him, "This is fried by my grandma, would you like to try it?"

Yinxiu took a sip, and smiled after loosening her brows, "This is the taste." She asked why the fragrance is strong but not astringent?Didn't it mean that the taste of artificial frying is stronger?

"The heat is well controlled. It takes more than two hours to make a pot of frying, kneading, and kneading. Before that, there were steps such as picking and cleaning the tea leaves. These were all done by my grandparents wearing reading glasses. In addition, they This cup of tea can only be made with ten years of experience and special care.” Yu Ren said that we have all tasted the tea factory, Xiaoliu doesn’t drink tea well, and the machine-fried tea is much weaker.

We are too anxious about many things now, always thinking about overtaking on curves, and always thinking about mechanization and mass production. This is wrong.Yu Ren said that she wrote in her research report that although machine-roasted tea has become the mainstream of the local industry, it must be realized that the experience of hand-made tea has been passed down for hundreds of years, which is also an intangible asset of local tea.

"I'm not saying that manual ones are necessarily better than machine ones. We must pay attention to objective laws in doing things." Yu Ren held up his cup and took a look in the sun. The leaves are picked, and it is easy to break if a machine is used."

However, machine frying can save a lot of manpower, and it is more convenient to control the temperature.Yin Xiu said.

"Yes, this is my advice to you, Yin Xiu. If you want to gain a foothold in this industry, you can't follow others' advice. You have to discern with your heart and establish strict standards. This industry seems to have a low threshold, but you must find the entry threshold that suits you , others can’t easily step in.” Yu Ren said that I want to hear what you think, and I didn’t accompany me this time just to promote the tea from my grandparents’ house.

Yin Xiuxiao, I want to thank you very much for leading me into this line of work.To be honest, Yu Ren, I haven't made a clear and detailed plan for the future, but I have an idea, "Can you please tell the old man for me, I want to stay in Yuzhuang for a few months and learn planting from them and fried tea." This time I am not in a hurry, I am very slow, and I have the patience to go deep and do things.

Yu Ren touched Yinxiu's teacup, "They can only wish for someone to accompany them."

The two adults chatted happily in the yard, and the two children lying on the railing upstairs sighed because they were bored and sighed helplessly.

What about Su Hai's spring outing?Yuan Liu said, why do they have endless things to say?

Yu Ren and Yin Xiu raised their heads at the same time, "Come down, I'll take you to go fishing." Su Hai shouted down, while Yuan Liu looked at her sister silly and smiled upstairs, "Hey!"

Yinxiu said that Xiao Liu was sensible since he was a child, and he is still so obedient when he grows up.

good?Yu Ren raised his eyebrows, "You didn't see how she slapped me and insisted on picking me up from get off work every day." Yu Ren talked about Zhu Chaoyang, and complained to Yin Xiu and Yuan Liu, "She herself It's a child."

"Children are not divided by age." Yin Xiu drank the last sip of tea, "She, like me, was forced to grow up." There was a smile in her delicate eyes.

The four men wore hats and lined up at both ends of the creek to fish. Yinxiu and Su Hai had no experience in living in the countryside, so they didn't see a single fish after fishing for a long time.

Yu Ren was holding her grandfather's fishing rod, with Yuan Liu's head resting on his lap.

This is a child who was forced to grow up. Yu Ren looked down at Yuan Liu. The little girl was dozing soundly. Her eyebrows were black and long, and there was a little more miscellaneous hair at the end of her eyebrows, which added a heroic look to this face.

Yuan Liu's right hand was also resting on Yu Ren's left leg, and after being bored waiting for fishing, she carefully observed the little girl's five fingers.She heard Uno say that she felt sorry for Yinxiu's hand, because she was tortured by life at a very young age, and the imprint was intuitively written on her hand besides her eyes and heart.

Yuan Liu has been doing housework since she was a child, washing dishes and vegetables, and now she insists on giving Yuan Huifang a massage every day. Although her fingers are white, calluses have developed between her knuckles.Scholar's cocoons are mostly on the side of the right index finger, but the pen holder is not as stubborn and conspicuous as Yuan Liu's cocoons.Yu Ren pursed his lower lip, and gently stroked Yuan Liu's forehead with his left hand.

The little girl's eyelashes moved, and her head slid down to Yu Ren's abdomen.Yu Ren immediately clenched his stomach, looking embarrassedly at Su Hai and Yin Xiu, one of them was catching fish, and the other was busy stringing bait.

Yu Ren, who didn't dare to speak out, could only stare at the fishing rod, thinking that he would go to pay homage to Yu Juan tomorrow, and it was time for San'er to meet the eldest sister.Over the past ten years, she has experienced Yu Juan, Mao Sheng, Feng Nian, and Qi Yi Guo in her life. It turned out that Yuan Liu was the one who accompanied her all the time.The little dumpling from back then is now dozing off by himself beside the stream in Yuzhuang.

Thinking of this, Yu Ren took off his thick jacket and covered Yuan Liu's body.Tired of always maintaining a fishing posture, Yu Ren lay on Yuan Liu's back, lifted Yuan Liu's ponytail down his shoulders, and rested his chin on the little girl's butterfly bone, enjoying the rare leisure and ease in the past few years.

The strange folding posture finally bears the weight on Yu Ren's crossed legs. Yu Ren didn't catch the fish, but his legs went numb.She called Yuan Liu, "Xiao Liu?" The child who seldom took a nap could not call out now.

"Sister——legs are numb." Yu Ren wondered.

Yuan Liu woke up immediately, and said that if it was numb, I would rub it for you.Her clear eyes showed that she had woken up early, Yu Renren was stunned, "You son of a bitch, you have been pressing me for so long."

Yuan Liu just smiled, "Because it's so comfortable." She licked her lower lip, and the redness immediately covered her thin lips. The little girl said she was sorry, sister, and stayed up all night yesterday to write enough test papers in order to come out to play with peace of mind.

"What do you want to eat? I'll go fishing." Yuan Liu returned Yu Ren's clothes to her shoulders, took the fishing rod and skillfully lowered it. The child with a baby voice really grows up, at least, in her eyes——Yuan Liu immediately turned back to look at Yu Ren, her eyes flashed with cunning, smart and pure, she didn't look at herself like she did when she was a child It is innocent and not muddy, but it is full of hot colors.

She had read about the deja vu and flickering eyes in these eyes from Uo, when they were fifteen or sixteen years old, Uo gave her this crystal ornament around her neck.On that night of crying in Shipu, Qi Yiguo's eyes also had such brilliance, Xiao Qi said at that time, "What should I do with you?"

The water drifted, and Yuan Liu took up the line steadily, slowly and quickly, the thorn fish rushed out of the water with its mouth open, and she finally caught the small yellow fish, "Haha, ang thorn!" I came here when I was a child , This is the one that catches the most.

Yuan Liu held the fish in desperation and brought it to Yu Ren's eyes. Her sister's smile seemed to be squeezed out of a stylized way. Yu Ren said, "It's pretty good." Walk along the stream."

Yu Ren took two steps and turned his head, Yuan Liu was still holding on to the thorn that was struggling desperately, the little girl was a little stunned, but when she saw her sister turning her head, she smiled again, made a cute group photo expression, and pretended to kiss the little girl Fish, "Little fish, I want to kiss you!"

"Kiss your head—" Yu Ren realized that she had misunderstood "Little Fish". She had a headache and walked away shaking her hands, "It's only one."

"As much as you want, I'll fish for you!" Yuan Liu shouted behind her, his eyes darkened, "I'm bored fishing without you here."

"Catch slowly if you're bored. The fish here are really clever." Yinxiu's voice came from beside her, and she looked at the little girl with a smile, "I borrowed some bait, but it was ruined by Xiaohai."

The author has something to say:

Seeing a wife ask Dean Yu what to say, her original words were, "In the past, what was the rule between Xiao Qi and you? Don't hurt your body." If there is less, the face will turn yellow, and if there is too much, it will turn pale.
