longing for life like a dream

Chapter 204 Please Bamboo Raft

"Brother, where are we going to find bamboo rafts?"

Sitting in the car, Zhang Zifeng looked at the scenery on both sides of the car window with a happy face.

"Let me take a look. It's Caizaiyuan Village, Daling Township. It's not very far from here. It only takes half an hour by car."

Open the navigation and enter the address. This is the address that brother Cai Jinlong told me when he called and asked just now.

"Caizaiyuan Village? The name is quite interesting. It sounds like a lot of vegetables have been planted and there are quite a lot of vegetable gardens." Zhao Liying answered casually.

"Hey, you guessed it right, Caizaiyuan Village grows the most vegetables in the ten miles and eight townships, and the largest vegetable garden in the vicinity is in the back mountain of their village, with a vegetable garden of nearly [-] mu of land. "

"Really? With such a large vegetable garden, the vegetables here will not be transported to all parts of the country, right?"

"That's right again, the vegetables here are really one of the suppliers of several large chain fresh supermarkets. The annual output of vegetables is about thousands of tons, and the output is nearly [-] tons at the peak."

"So many? Brother Hao, does this mean that some of the vegetables we often eat on the dinner table are also from here?"

"Maybe, after all, there are still a lot of production and sales places here, maybe I have eaten it before."

The three of them chatted and soon arrived at Caiziyuan Village, Daling Township, and drove all the way to the village's primary school and stopped.

"School? Are we waiting for that Brother Cai here?"

Looking at the beautifully built school through the car window, Zhao Liying asked curiously.

"Yes, it's right here!" Qin Hao got out of the car directly after turning off the engine, "Brother Cai is still the teacher of this elementary school, and he is mainly responsible for teaching Chinese classes. We have to wait for him to finish class when we come here."

"Wow, this teacher Cai is very good? He can support a bamboo raft and he is a teacher who teaches and educates people!"

"Brother, can we go in and have a look?"

"Well, I'm not sure if it's possible. I'll ask Teacher Cai later when she comes out."

After tidying up his clothes, there are only a few minutes left before the time he agreed with that teacher Cai, and he should be coming out soon.

Glancing at the vehicles that the program team came to follow, Qin Hao frowned. It's not a problem that the vehicles are all parked at the school gate, and he has to find a place to stop.

"Brother Shan, can you ask the driver to park the car farther away? Don't hinder everyone from crossing the road, and the students will pay more attention to safety after school."

"Okay, no problem, I'll let them drive the car away now, and give me your keys too, and I'll let someone drive to the open space in front."

"Remember to ask fellow villagers if they can park. You have to follow other people's rules. There are some parking fees in private places. Try not to disturb the fellow villagers."

"I'll take care of things, you can rest assured!"

Chen Shan patted his chest and walked to the side to confess, and soon two staff drove the car away.

After waiting for less than 3 minutes, the big iron gate of the school was gently opened, and someone ran out.

Listening to the sound, Qin Hao looked over, isn't it the Cai Jinlong, brother Cai who just picked him up a few days ago?

Oh, no, it should be Teacher Cai now.

"Mr. Cai, hello, do you still remember me?"

After walking a few steps quickly to catch up and say hello, Qin Hao looked at this middle-aged man who had just met with a smile.

"Hey, hello, hello, I kept you waiting for a long time, Mr. Qin, didn't you wait long? I'm really sorry, get out of class just ended."

"It's okay, it's okay, Mr. Cai, take a rest first, don't worry, let's talk slowly, you see you are sweating from running."

Looking at the original bamboo raft master and the current school teacher Cai with a layer of sweat on his face, he knew that he must have rushed over after class.

"Teacher Cai, let me introduce you. This is my sister Zhang Zifeng, and this is Zhao Liying!"

Zhao Liying and Zhang Zifeng pulled over, and Qin Hao introduced them.

"I know, I know, I have watched all of your shows, but my daughter really likes the one played by Mrs. Zhao, right? I watch it too, and I really like it."

"Mr. Cai, hello, I'm Zhang Zifeng!"

"Mr. Cai, hello, I'm Zhao Liying, it's my honor to make you like me!"

The two stood obediently behind Qin Hao, greeted each other and shook hands.

"By the way, Teacher Cai, how about we talk while walking?"

After seeing the students starting to come out of the school gate gradually, Qin Hao was afraid that it would cause some sensation later, so Qin Hao quickly brought the matter back to the topic.

"Okay, then go to my house first, I don't have classes in the afternoon, I can accompany you to see those bamboo rafts, and I can take you there for a few masters."

Knowing that they are all from celebrities, and it is also the time for students to leave school, Teacher Cai Jinlong doesn't want to wait for the students to come out and surround the place with water.

In any case, Zhao Liying or Zifeng, these are the hottest stars in the younger generation, and it is not easy for children to chase stars now.

It's not too far from the place where Cai Jinlong lives, and it's just up the slope.

"Brother Cai, how many masters here are still supporting bamboo rafts on the river?"

"There are fewer now. Now that several rivers near here have been connected with roads and bridges have been built, they can't support their families with bamboo rafts, so they can only go fishing occasionally!"

"It's missing? Then how many masters can we find? We need a few masters to help, and maybe we will need the help of masters in the next few months."

"Well, I have to make a phone call to ask. Many people no longer make bamboo rafts, and they all work in the vegetable breeding base behind."

"That's fine, then I'll trouble you, Brother Cai!"

We communicated while walking, and when we got back to Cai Jinlong’s house, we finally got in touch with some master craftsmen who were still supporting bamboo rafts on the river. They were all begging for food on this river for many years.

Of course, this is also the reason why the program group is willing to spend money. Asking people to help can't be free, can it?

Cai Jinlong helped to pull the string from it, plus himself, so that six master craftsmen could support the bamboo raft to the river near the mushroom house in the afternoon.

He didn't sit for a long time, and when things were settled, Qin Hao and the others left first. Teacher Cai still had to contact several masters, and didn't have time to chat with Qin Hao and the others, so they separated directly.

"Brother~"

"Huh? What's the matter? What's on your mind?"

Looking at Zhang Zifeng, who was a little sad, she didn't know what kind of circuit this little head was. A small story could make her mood fluctuate violently.

"Is it because our life is getting better and better, and more and more precious things are leaving us? Just like Teacher Cai said, there were bamboo rafts everywhere on the river here 20 years ago, but these 20 years Years later, there will be only a few old masters left."

"Well, to be honest, I don't know how to explain this to you. Maybe it's because we are making progress, so we will inevitably eliminate some backward things. Of course, it doesn't mean that these things are backward. It must be useless if they are gone, it’s just that they can’t keep up with the times, maybe living in history and the memory of each generation is their destination!”

After simply thinking about it, it is true that too many good things have been lost and abandoned over the years, but this is also the result of helplessness.

Perhaps, this is the orderly and continuous development and progress of inheritance from generation to generation. Some things can only be inherited, but they cannot be reproduced.

"Zifeng, instead of being sad and sad for them, why don't you record them all? Use the camera or mobile phone in your hand to record what you see and what you want to see, bit by bit. Enough."

Zhao Liying, who has passed this age of understanding, comforted this sentimental little girl in a low voice.

"Well, I know the answer. It's not that they are gradually disappearing, but that they are constantly hidden in the inheritance in our hearts!"

"That's right, do you understand now?"

Gently scratched the little girl's nose, which aroused Zhang Zifeng's coquettish anger, and then kept tilting her head to avoid Qin Hao's big hand!
Humph, always messing with my hair, I hate it, bad brother!
　This is guaranteed!

　　Ask for tickets, ask for tickets, ask for tickets!
　　I have said the important things three times, you understand!
