I really don't want to be a teacher

Next to the foot of the mountain, stretching forward are houses of families.

This is a village in the valley.

Chapter 637 The Village

In the mountain depression, there is some misty cooking smoke rising from every household in the village, swaying slightly with the breeze, and then mixed in the clouds and mist overflowing from the surrounding mountains and forests.

On the village road, on the hillside and on the ridge, you can still see some villagers walking around,

Or they carried hoes and dustpans to the mountains and fields, or they rode bicycles and took their children to the outside of the mountains.

At the entrance of the village, in the courtyard of the house that can be seen, the person who just opened the door is tidying up his own yard.

From time to time, with the breeze, there were cocks crowing and dogs barking from the bottom of the mountain depression, and the voices of people were mixed with the side, and the rustling of branches and leaves in the dense forest behind.

"...Young man, let's go down."

The old man straightened up, looked down the mountain, smiled, and greeted again, carrying a back basket, holding a sickle, leading the way, and walked down the mountain.

Turning his eyes back, Lian Ge glanced at the old man, and moved his feet, along the ridge on the hillside, passing by the terraced fields planted with rapeseed or seasonal vegetables, and went down the mountain with the old man. go.

……

"...Old man, it's so early?"

Villagers who came up along the ridge beside the terraced fields saw the old man and greeted the old man with a smile.

"...Can't sleep, just take advantage of this morning, come to the mountain to have a look, pick some herbs and go back. Are you going to the field?"

The old man responded with a smile,

"...Yes, go to the field and dig some radishes by the way. You should rest more yourself, old man, don't tire yourself out. Why don't you stand a little longer, old man, and I'll dig some radishes, old man Take it down by the way, if the old man can't carry it, I'll help you carry it down."

"...It's okay, my old bones, don't look old and useless, but I can still toss them around for a few years. I don't want the radishes. The old Chen's son gave me them a few days ago. Not finished."

"...That's fine, then after two days I'll give the old man some and bring it to your house...By the way, who is this young man?"

The villagers responded with a smile, then turned their heads, looked at Lian Ge beside him, and couldn't help asking,

"...A tourist passing by met me in the woods. Let him go down with me, go to the village to rest, and then go out from the village later. It will be more convenient to go anywhere on the main road."

The old man smiled and replied,

The villagers smiled and nodded with Lian Ge when they heard the sound.

Lian Ge smiled slightly, nodded, and didn't say much.

"...The old man, you are busy, I will go to the field now, and I will talk to you when I come back."

"...Okay, you are busy, you are busy, I have to go down the mountain too."

After another greeting, the villager carried a hoe and walked up the hillside again. The old man led the way, turned around, and then walked down the hillside.

Looking at the old man again, Lian Ge moved his feet again, and walked along the ridge of the field with the old man towards the foot of the mountain.

……

"...Old man, it's cold now, and you're also looking forward to your own body. If you need any herbal medicine, just tell us. We'll go to the mountain and dig it for you."

"...I'm used to it, I'm used to it, I just want to go up the mountain when I have nothing to do, and I don't want to bother you."

"...That's right, what's the trouble, old man, you've helped us a lot..."

"...Then old man, go slowly, I'll go first..."

All the way down the field ridge on the hillside, I met some villagers along the way, and they all greeted the old man loudly.

The old man led the way, smiled and responded, and walked towards the foot of the mountain.

After walking through the ridge beside the terraced fields at the foot of the mountain, Lian Ge and the old man walked down the hillside to the side of the village in the depression.

"The old man is quite prestigious in the village?"

Lian Ge glanced at the old man beside him, turned his gaze to the village in front of him, and said in a calm tone,

"...What prestige is not, that is, when I am older, people in the village are more polite to me."

The old man laughed and responded again.

Glancing at the old man, Lian Ge smiled slightly and didn't say much.

Leading the way, the old man walked forward again,

Moving away again, Lian Ge continued walking towards the village with the old man.

……

"...Young man, please stand still for a while. I have something to do, so I will delay it for a few minutes."

Passing by a few houses near the foot of the mountain, the old man carried a basket on his back and led the way onto the village road in the village.

Along both sides of the road, there are houses next to each other. In front of the house, there are women cleaning up the yard, or men who are busy preparing to go out, or just getting up, and they are sleepy and dozing off. , standing by the door, let its mother clothe the child in thick clothes,

Many people in the village who were still far away greeted the old man with a smile,

The old man responded with a smile, then turned around and said something to Lian Ge.

"The old man can do what he wants."

Turning his gaze, walked along the village road, glanced at the village, looked away, Lian Ge smiled slightly, and answered.

The old man nodded again, moved his feet, and walked into the yard of the next door.

It was an old tile-roofed house, covered with black tiles on the roof, and the black tiles extended towards the front of the house, covering the eaves.

It's just that the few tiles on the eaves are a little crooked and seem to be crumbling.

"Dong dong..."

"...Is Liu Erwa in the house?"

Walking under the eaves, the old man reached out and knocked on the closed door with faded paint, and shouted into the house.

"...cough cough...cough cough..."

Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of movement in the room, mixed with some muffled coughing.

"...Old man... why are you here so early?"

The door opened, and a middle-aged man in his thirties walked out, greeted the old man,

"...Is Lao Liu still coughing?"

The old man looked into the room and asked aloud,

"...Lao Yu is here? Cough cough..."

The people in the house heard the movement and responded to the outside of the house, but couldn't stop coughing.

"...Yes, I'm still coughing..."

The middle-aged man nodded in response.

The old man looked at the room again, turned around, temporarily put the sickle aside, put down the pannier he was carrying,

"...You take these back and decoct them for your dad three times. Each time, put a bowl of water and lower the heat. When there are more than half a bowl of water left, you can serve it to your dad."

As the old man spoke, he took all the herbs he had collected on the mountain from his back basket, including the asarum that Lian Ge had helped him find earlier.

"...I've divided these herbs for you. You can wash them again. After washing them, add water to decoct them."

The old man shook off the dirt on the herbs, squeezed the herbs, and handed them to the middle-aged man.

"...Old man, you still remember."

The middle-aged man hurriedly took it, and said with some gratitude in his eyes,

"...I'm old, and I'm not old-fashioned. When I passed by your yard yesterday, I heard your father coughing on the edge of the yard."

The old man said and shook his head,

"...Thank you, thank you old man, you stand for a while, old man, I'll get you money."

"...What do I want your money for, if you have money, just keep it yourself."

The old man said again, and shook his head again,

"...Your dad is also coughing a lot. It's been getting colder and colder these past two days. Tell him to pay attention, don't blow the cold wind, and wear thicker clothes. After all, he is getting older."

"...Thank you, old man, I see, I will tell my father... By the way, old man, there was some bacon drying in the room before, old man, you can take a piece back."

"...You can just keep it for yourself. A few days ago, Xu Erwa sent a piece over, and I haven't finished eating yet."

The old man waved his hand again, picked up the half-empty pannier, picked up the sickle, turned around and walked out of the yard.

Chapter 638

"...Young man, I'm sorry to have waited for a long time."

The old man walked back to the village road with a basket on his back and a sickle in his hand, and said to Lian Ge,

Glancing at the old man, Lian Ge shook his head slightly.

"The young man, let's go on. This way please."

Turning around, leading the way, the old man walked forward again,

Lian Ge moved his feet away again, and walked forward with the old man, while looking at the houses along the way.

……

"...Old man, come back from the mountain, did you go to the mountain to gather medicine?"

"...Old man, let's have breakfast in the house, just about to have breakfast..."

"...No, no, the house is waiting, you eat, you eat..."

Walking along the village road, beside the village road is the yard of each family, and behind the yard are high or low houses.

In the house, or the family is eating breakfast, or the person who prepares the breakfast is busy in the kitchen,

Cleaning up the yard in the yard, preparing to expose the grain to the sun, rolling out motorcycles, arranging clothes for the children, preparing the whole family to go out, carrying rice bowls, gathering in twos and threes to eat and talk by the yard,

From a distance, when I saw the old man, I greeted him with a smile,

The old man also responded with a smile.

From time to time, someone turned their eyes towards Lian Ge and asked aloud, waiting for the old man to introduce him, and greeted Lian Ge with a smile.

Lian Ge smiled slightly, watched and listened, and walked forward with the old man.

……

"...Young man, please wait a little longer."

"The old man can do as he pleases."

He walked further into the village, and at another turn, the old man stopped again,

On the side of the turning road, in the courtyard of a family, a man in his thirties just came out of the house with a rice bowl, and squatted by the courtyard to eat breakfast.

The old man saw it, greeted Lian Ge again, and walked towards the yard.

The man was eating, looked up, saw the old man, immediately stood up, turned around and walked into the house,

"...What's the matter, Jiang Siwa, old man, I offended you, and ran into the house when I saw me."

The old man walked into the yard and yelled at the man who turned around and was about to go back into the house,

"...No, no...Mr. Yu, how could you offend me? How can there be such a thing..."

The man suddenly stopped, as if he was a little afraid of the old man, he smiled flatteringly on his face, squeezed his smile, and said to the old man.

"...No, no, you run away when you see me?"

The old man stopped by the door under the eaves, and said to the man again,

"...I'm not, this is not... It's just a little cold outside, I'm going back to the house, back to the house..."

"...Don't give me sloppy eyes!"
