Chapter 427: The turtledove is gone

"I haven't eaten a turtle dove in years, but it's a good game!"

The girl of the Yang family may be really hungry, looking at the turtledove jumping around in the tree, saliva appeared at the corners of her mouth. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Don't talk, watch me catch them!" Meowth whispered.

"Meow girl, wait first!" Yang Zhenling stopped meow: "These turtledoves have red ropes tied to their legs, this should be the turtle dove with the owner, maybe it is raised by the islander's family, this is not game! If you really want to eat them, you must also know the master's house." ”

"Brother, where is there any family in this deep mountain and old forest?"

The Yang family's sister looked at Yang Zhenling dissatisfied.

"Don't say it, there should be a real home here!"

Yang Zhenling stretched out his hand and pointed at it, only to see that on the mountainside, there was curling smoke rising.

"On the other side of the mountain, if you go there, the way back will be far! What's more, the Gu Sect is also hungry now, can you bear to let the guests starve?" said the Yang family girl pitifully.

"It's okay, we're not hungry. ”

Although she was called sister by one by one, this pot meow was not carried by meow, she looked at the Yang family sister and smiled happily.

"Sister, you're so annoying!"

glared at Meow Meow fiercely, and the Yang family girl turned to Yang Zhenling.

"Okay, I'm actually hungry, brother, let's not go to the other side of the mountain, let's take down these turtledoves now!"

It seemed that the girls of the Yang family wanted to eat them, and a few turtledoves, which were still playing on the trees, all flew away at once, and the direction was the mountainside, where the smoke rose.

The sister of the Yang family wanted to cry without tears, but Yang Zhenling laughed: "It seems that these turtledoves really don't want you to eat!"

Everyone also laughed, and the Yang family girl shouted at the bottom of the mountain: "Stinky turtledove, bad turtledove, you wait for me, I will eat you today!"

"Okay, don't make trouble, little sister! The mountain is quite far away, let's mainly accompany the Gu master today, whether we eat turtledoves or not, it depends on the meaning of the Gu master. Yang Zhenling said.

"It's okay, anyway, it's just to play, meow and I are not tired, it's rare that your sister is not afraid of hard work, so let's go over!" Gu Zheng laughed.

When it comes to action, action is action, Gu Zheng and the others were originally at the top of the mountain, and immediately started to descend the mountain from the other side.

It didn't take long to walk, and the Yang sister-in-law regretted it a little, the mountain road was difficult, and it was more difficult to go down the mountain than up, and Yang Zhenling was almost always holding her hand along the way.

"Sister of the Yang family, why don't we go back?"

Meow Meow walked happily in the front, and from time to time she turned around and laughed with the Yang sisters.

"No, I won't bow my head to the mountain road, I must go to eat the turtledove made by Gu Zhangmen at noon today!" said the Yang family girl hatefully.

"Don't talk about my husband as a turtledove, we saw the turtledove flying over there, but it wasn't raised by that family, it's not certain at all. Besides, even if it's raised by someone, they may not want to let us eat it!" meowed.

"They must be raised by that family! Otherwise, I won't lose a lot? As for saying that people are reluctant to give up, sister, you can rest assured! As long as you say that they are the distinguished guests of the Tianxin Sect, there is nothing that the islanders are reluctant to bear!" affirmed the Yang family's sister.

After walking forward for a while, a winding sheep intestine path finally appeared on the mountain, which was originally roadless.

"Great, there's a way!"

The girls of the Yang family cheered, and for the first time they found that the road turned out to be so cute.

Along the road, the speed of the crowd was much faster.

After a while, a man with a hoe on his back and a child of seven or eight years old appeared on the road ahead.

"Wait, uncle!" Yang Zhenling said loudly.

The shirtless man dressed as a cropper turned around and stopped to look at Yang Zhenling.

"Uncle, I would like to ask you something, how many families live on this mountain?" Yang Zhenling said.

The farmer looked honest, but he didn't answer Yang Zhenling's question immediately, but squinted his eyes and looked Yang Zhenling up and down.

"Who are you?"

The child, covered in mud, hid behind the farmer and asked timidly.

"I am a disciple of the Tianxin Sect, this is a distinguished guest of the Tianxin Sect, we have been thirsty and hungry all the way, and we want to go to a place where someone lives to beg for a meal!"

Yang Zhenling was embarrassed to say that he came to eat turtledoves, he smiled at the mud boy and took out a misty apricot for him.

The mud boy shook his head, although he wanted to eat the fog wind apricot in Yang Zhenling's hand, but he clung to the crop man's clothes.

"You, you, you are Yang Zhenling?"

The farmer finally spoke, with a little excitement in his voice of disbelief.

"My name is Yang Zhenling, uncle, do you recognize me?"

Yang Zhenling's eyes were puzzled, and he frowned at first when he looked at the farmer's face, and then his eyes widened wider and wider.

"You, are you Uncle Cheng?" Yang Zhenling said excitedly.

"Do you remember?" laughed the farmer.

When Yang Zhenling was a child, Uncle Cheng was his neighbor, and later Yang Zhenling's parents died, and the young Yang Zhenling and the Yang sister-in-law lived in the Tianxin faction until adulthood, and then moved back to the original old house. It's just that Uncle Cheng's family, who were originally their neighbors, has disappeared.

After many years, I met my old neighbors, whether it was Yang Zhenling or Uncle Cheng, they all seemed very happy.

"Xiaobao, you go home first, tell your mother, let her prepare a few dishes, and entertain distinguished guests at noon!"

"Hmm. ”

The mud boy responded, smiled at everyone, and disappeared on the mountain road.

"Uncle Cheng, how many families are there around here?"

The Yang sister-in-law also spoke, and she was still thinking about her turtledove in her heart.

"I'm the only one here! Don't go anywhere today, just go to my house for a light meal, and the distinguished guests will go home with us!"

Uncle Cheng looked at everyone with a simple and enthusiastic expression.

Yang Zhenling looked at Gu Zheng with an inquiring gaze, although he really wanted to go over and reminisce about the past, but today's task is to take Gu Zheng to play after all, whether he can get over it or not, in the end, it depends on Gu Zheng's decision.

"Okay, let's go and be a guest together!"

Gu Zheng didn't really want to go, people who were too enthusiastic would make him feel uncomfortable, but since Yang Zhenling wanted to go, it was nothing to go over together.

Yang Zhenling smiled gratefully at Gu Zheng: "Gu Daoyou, I'll miss me for a while." ”

"It's okay, let's go!"

Gu Zheng smiled slightly, and Yang Zhenling immediately walked in front with Uncle Cheng, reminiscing about the old days as he walked.

"There is only Uncle Cheng's family on the mountain, it seems that the quail is theirs, and the quail didn't run away today!"

Yang Zhenling and Uncle Cheng walked in front, and Gu Zheng and the three of them walked behind, although Gu Zheng didn't speak along the way, but there were Yang sisters-in-law and Meow Meow teasing from time to time, but it didn't seem boring.

Uncle Cheng's home is in front of him, with a small yard and three grass houses, and the mud children who originally came back to report the news have also been washed white, and they are grinning at everyone at the door.

"Xiaobao, give!"

Yang Zhenling walked forward quickly and took out a few misty apricot plugs for Uncle Cheng's children.

"Take it, this is your true spirit brother!"

Uncle Cheng let go, and Xiaobao took over the fog wind apricot, and shouted crisply, 'Brother Zhenling'.

"you, I'm back!"

Walking everyone into the courtyard, Uncle Cheng shouted into the house.

A simple peasant woman immediately walked out of the house: "Daddy, the meal is almost ready, you take the distinguished guests to the hall to sit first!"

"Aunt Cheng!"

Yang Zhenling and the sister of the Yang family shouted together, and the peasant woman was slightly stunned, and soon saw who the two of them were, and a joyful greeting was inevitable.

In the hall, Uncle Cheng entertained Gu Zheng and others with home-brewed wine.

The quality of the wine is not very good, but the people who drink the wine are very simple, and a big bowl of wine, Gu Zheng also drank it to the bottom.

Just as everyone was drinking and chatting, a different kind of meat aroma came from the kitchen, and the smell was appetizing.

The little sister of the Yang family was still very intoxicated at first, but soon her brows furrowed, she looked at Gu Zheng and whispered: "Gu Master, should this boiled meat be?"

"It seems that yes, ordinary meat will not have such a fragrant taste. ”

Gu Zheng didn't think it was a pity, he just thought it was a little fun! Originally, he was chasing the turtledove, but who would have thought that the hospitable host would cook the turtledove for the guests first.

On the other hand, the younger sister of the Yang family, her face was full of pain, and when she thought of the ordinary quality turtledove, which was stewed by Aunt Cheng, she really had a feeling of crying and laughing.

After a while, Aunt Cheng brought all the food.

Two turtledoves were stewed in soup, two turtledoves were fried with potatoes, and there was also a pheasant and hare, and some wild vegetables from the mountains.

"The meals are already ready, today I specially stewed a few turtledoves raised by my family, I hope that the distinguished guests, Xiaoling, and Xiaoyue can eat and drink to their heart's content!"

Uncle Cheng's words were very realistic, and it was a big bowl of wine that touched everyone.

With the mood of crying and laughing, the Yang sister-in-law served a little turtledove soup and a little turtledove meat, and after tasting them all, the disappointment on her face was even stronger.

The same thing Gu Zheng also tasted, because Aunt Cheng put some medicinal materials in the turtledove soup, although the effect is very supplemental, but the amount of medicine is wrong, so that it should be a very delicious soup, in addition to a trace of bitterness, the medicinal taste is also very strong.

As for the fried turtledove meat, there are also some things that should not be put in it, so that the taste that the original ordinary level ingredients should have has not burst out at all.

"Eat more, although it is not delicious, but it is a part of people's hearts. ”

Gu Zheng's whispered words were not only to Meow Meow, but also to the Yang family girl who was disappointed.

Meow, who had already put down the chopsticks, was very obedient, not only picked up the chopsticks again, but also ate very sweet.

As for the sister of the Yang family, although she is also very obedient, she can't do the kind of investment that Meow Meow has! After all, she is really looking forward to the turtledove cooked by Gu Zheng herself, not to mention that she is different from Meow Meow, she really passed this village, and there is no such shop.

"Gu Zhangmen, you said that the original turtledove was an ordinary-level ingredient, but what level of ingredient should the current turtledove be?" asked the Yang family girl in a low voice.

"It's not bad, it's inferior. Gu Zheng whispered.

Seeing that the sister of the Yang family was still depressed, Gu Zheng whispered again: "Although the ordinary grade turtledove meat has been downgraded due to Aunt Cheng's incomprehension and unreasonable cooking methods, I can feel that Aunt Cheng is doing it very carefully! What's more, Aunt Cheng is a peasant woman, this meal is actually very level! You are a cook, and I am good at cooking, if you have to compare Aunt Cheng with us, you will be on the tip of the horns! How can life be so perfect? People have to die more than others, and goods have to be thrown away!"

"Distinguished guest, don't just talk and touch a bowl with me!" Uncle Cheng argued for the bowl to Gu.

"Good!"

Gu Zheng raised bowls to greet each other, and the two bowls touched together.

"What's the matter? Did my husband say that you were suddenly open?"

Meow meow stabbed the Yang family girl who was in a daze.

"I understand the reason, but I'm a little disappointed! After all, unlike my sister, I can't often eat the delicious food made by Gu Zhangmen. ”

The girl of the Yang family smiled bitterly, picked up a piece of rice cake on the table, and took a hard bite.

"Hey, this rice cake is delicious!"

The sister of the Yang family is actually also arrogant, and the delicious rice cakes seem to make her forget her previous loss.

"Xiaoyue, the reason why our family moved here is also because we found that the rice grown by the spring water on the mountain here tastes exceptionally sweet, and your grandmother Cheng likes it very much! If you like to eat this rice cake, eat more, and when you leave, your aunt will decorate some rice with you. ”

"Thank you, auntie!"

The sister of the Yang family hurriedly thanked her, and then said, "Grandma Cheng really doesn't eat with us?"

"No, she can eat in the back room. Aunt Cheng smiled.

"Hey, why don't you eat?"

The sister of the Yang family suddenly found that Xiaobao looked at the dining table blankly, looking like she was about to cry.

"My turtledove, my turtledove are gone, and they won't play with me anymore. ”

was asked, the aggrieved Xiaobao cried, although the voice was very small, but all the people in the room heard it.

"Didn't my mother promise you? next time I go out of the mountain, I will bring you a few little chicks to play with, and as for those turtledoves, Xiaobao will forget about them!"

Aunt Cheng touched Xiaobao's head, but Xiaobao was still very disappointed.

"It turns out that those turtledoves are Xiaobao's playmates, I'm really sorry Xiaobao!"

Looking at Xiaobao's aggrieved appearance, the Yang family's sister was also guilty.

"Xiaoyue, it's okay, the children's family, it'll be fine in a while. ”

Aunt Cheng was full of apologies and looked at the people who were no longer eating.

"The children are so old, they have not been in contact with the outside world, and it is not a way, I heard Lao Cheng chatting with Yang Daoyou before, the reason why you choose to live in the mountains is because Xiaobao's grandmother is sick! I don't know what kind of disease Xiaobao's grandmother has?"

On the way, Gu Zheng heard Lao Cheng say something to Yang Zhenling, and Yang Zhenling also asked about the situation of their family, but Lao Cheng seemed to be too sad and didn't want to say more about his mother's illness at all.

Gu Zheng took the initiative to ask, which made Yang Zhenling smile gratefully at first, and then the whole person seemed to have confidence.

"Uncle Cheng, Gu Daoyou is a distinguished guest of the Tianxin Sect, but he is a very capable person, you can tell us what kind of illness Grandma Cheng had! Maybe Gu Daoyou has a way to cure this disease?"

Yang Zhenling looked at Uncle Cheng, who was only concerned about drinking, and his tone was quite complaining.
