Chapter 595 Old Lady in the Mountains

"Cooking? Don't talk about your calf, you kid, your door hasn't been opened, and your aunt has been watching, where is anyone? ”

Ma Chengfeng rushed into the house to take a look, and sure enough, the cold big iron cable was still hanging on the door of the old house. So where did Xiao Man go? Isn't it back? How...... Xiao Man has no acquaintances in Lishutun? Did you go to see Zhang Huifang? Huifang has always been at odds with Xiao Man, she can't be bored? If it was usual, Ma Chengfeng would definitely not take it to heart, Xiaoman, like other girls, likes those new things, and will always go around here and there when he walks to a strange place.

But now is an extraordinary time, if Xiao Man falls into the hands of the gangsters, then I am afraid that he will really have to exchange that parchment scroll. He hurried out of the house and searched all the way out of the village. asked several blind dates, but they didn't see Chang Xiaoman enter the tunzi at all.

Lishutun is so big, you have to pass the old tree in the east of the village to enter the tunzi, under the old tree, a group of aunts sit there all the year round to play sweaters and eat melon seeds, nagging the owner of the Li family, not to mention a big living person, even a mouse can't hide their eyes.

Ma Chengfeng looked around, but he didn't see Xiao Man's shadow until noon. In a hurry, he had no choice but to call the little fox back and let her follow the smell left by Xiao Man to find it. Hu Xiaoxi just took Xiao Man's clothes and sniffed them, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps on the mountain trail behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Chang Xiaoman, who was lost.

"Where have you been this morning? You're going to kill me! Can you tell me the next time you go out on your own? Besides, there is nothing to sell in the tunzi, what are you running around? ”

"I ...... I haven't been anywhere? Chang Xiaoman's face was dazed, and when she got closer, she was still holding a bundle of sorghum stalks in her hand.

"Where did this play come from? You're just going to find me a sweet rod? Ma Chengfeng took the bundle of sorghum stalks and asked.

There is a special variety of sorghum in the northeast, which is also called "sweet stalk" by the common people. Children after 8o and 7o should still have the impression in their heads, when they were young, they were not as good as they are now, where can they afford to buy sugarcane in Hainan? Children can only eat this sweet rod and beat the tooth sacrifice. However, this sweet rod is really delicious, and it is one of Ma Chengfeng's favorite delicacies in his childhood. But in recent years, Ma Chengfeng has rarely eaten it, because farmers have begun to grow bud rice.

Xiaoman said that she met an old woman on the way back just now, and the old woman asked her if she was Ma Chengfeng's object. Xiao Man thought that the old woman was a relative of the Ma family, so he took her arm and said a few words. The old woman told her that Cheng Feng loved to eat sweet poles when he was a child, and there was a field of wild poles growing behind this pear tree mountain, and you could cut some for him to eat.

As she spoke, the old woman pointed to the pear tree mountain and staggered over. Xiao Man thought to himself, it's nothing to do anyway, since Cheng Feng likes to eat, let's get some. Northeast people are very traditional, especially in those years, regardless of whether you are at home or not the body of a big lady, once the relationship is determined, then you will have to be a good wife and mother in the future. Usually you can spoil you, but if you don't know how to work, the neighbors will talk nonsense and poke you in the back. It is clear that Xiao Man has accepted his role.

"Wild pole land? You...... How did you get to Pear Tree Hill? Ma Chengfeng opened the sweet rod and took a bite, it was still the familiar taste of his childhood.

Lishutun is named after Lishu Mountain. Ninety percent or even more of the people from the Northeast came from Guandong, and their ancestors were either from Shandong or Hebei, which can be traced back to the end of the Qing Dynasty. I remember that when the first batch of Shandong people who broke into the eastern part of the country came to this mountain with their families and mouths, they saw the wild pear trees all over the mountain at first sight. They had traveled a long way, and had eaten up all the dry food they had brought with them, and they were already hungry and thirsty, and could no longer go any further.

The villagers picked the wild pears on the mountain to satisfy their hunger, and saw that the soil of this mountain was fertile and suitable for farming, and it was the pear trees in the mountains that saved the lives of hundreds of people, so they stayed and named it Lishutun.

Almost a hundred years have passed, and the vicissitudes of life have changed...... Lishutun has changed a lot, and almost all the places suitable for cultivation are planted with farms, but only this pear grove remains. This is not because the villagers of Lishutun miss the old days and are grateful for the ancestors who saved them from these wild pear trees.

The yin atmosphere in this pear tree mountain is very heavy, and according to legend, many people died on this mountain before. At night, someone lost his way on the pear tree and hit the wall.

Ma Chengfeng remembered that he was naughty when he was a child, and he dared to play anywhere, even if it was Old Man Hu's mansion, he took his children to play, but he didn't dare to come to Lishu Mountain. Grandma is a thousand instructions, this pear tree mountain is too evil, there are old goblins eating children, if you are caught by the old goblin, grandma has no ability to save you. So until today, Ma Chengfeng thinks so in his heart. We all have the shadow of childhood, and there are always a few taboos in the depths of a child's memory.

"I came around from the back mountain, and I saw a fruit grove on the mountain over there, so I ...... How? Is there anything wrong with Pear Tree Hill? Xiao Man looked at Ma Chengfeng in surprise.

"I didn't ...... Actually, it's nothing, do you remember what that mother-in-law looks like? ”

Xiao Man said that when she first saw the mother-in-law, she felt that her mother-in-law was very kind, and she didn't look like a bad person, otherwise she wouldn't dare to follow an old lady of unknown origin into the ravine? And that mother-in-law is still a little connected with you. "Isn't it your grandmother's seven aunts and eight aunts or something?"

Ma Chengfeng frowned, but he didn't dare to tell her the truth, where did he have relatives besides the dead ghost grandfather? If you have to say that you can still have a little blood relationship with yourself, those Ma families in Heilongtun in Xing'anling can barely be counted. There is only one family surnamed Ma in the vicinity of Lishutun, where did this old lady come from? Do you know you love sweets?

"I'm hungry, you can cook for the two of us first." Ma Chengfeng jumped on the small kang with a heavy heart.

Little Manu didn't know what to make him unhappy, so he turned around and went to cook for them without saying anything more.

"Huh? Do you think it will be...... This one? "Hu Xiaoci has been with Ma Chengfeng for the longest time, and he was still living in Ma Chengfeng's ghost pupil to practice, all the secrets in Ma Chengfeng's heart can't be hidden from Hu Xiaoci, and even what Ma Chengfeng is thinking in his heart, Hu Xiaoci is clear, just like his roundworm. Hu Xiaoci didn't take off his shoes, jumped directly on the kang, stepped on the quilt and walked to the small cabinet on the corner of the kang.

There is generally such a small cabinet in the corner of the fire kang in the northeast, called the kang cabinet, and the extra bedding is basically placed in the cabinet. There is a drawer under this small kang cabinet of the Ma family.
