cottage legend

()0005: I will come to chat with you tomorrow night

Zhai Wang Zheng Shuang was indeed very simple when he first entered the mountain.Thinking of the few days when he first entered the mountain, Zheng Shuang felt warm in his heart.

Zheng Shuang turned a corner and saw his wooden house under the moonlight. It happened that there was an empty field next to the path, and there was a big stone in the middle of the empty field. He simply sat down and slowly recalled the scene after entering the mountain.

Zheng Shuang had a good sleep after entering the mountain, and it was almost dinner time when he woke up.

Zhai Wang Wang said, Mr. Zheng, wash your face and climb upstairs to see the scenery, and I will call you when you have dinner.Zheng Shuang climbed upstairs and saw a log supporting the window.

Walking to the window, there are stacked mountains in front of you, and colorful clouds are flying among the mountains.Zheng Shuang was fascinated by the scenery in the evening.

If you take a closer look, the wooden houses of the mountain people are sparsely located in the mountains, and the surrounding trees are lush.Zheng Shuang was indulging in the natural scenery of the mountain village, and the king of the village asked him to go down for dinner.

Dinner was much richer than lunch. Besides bacon, there was also a delicious soup and some vegetables.The king of the village said that he specially asked someone to dig a winter thatch mouse. This mouse lives in the high-density thatch all the year round and makes holes in the thatch. The meat is delicious. You can drink some soup first.

Zheng Shuang took a sip of the soup, the sweetness from the mouth to the heart, and the whole person felt like a fairy.

While Zheng Shuang was savoring the sweetness of the soup, a young girl's singing sounded like a bell came from outside the door.

Looking along the song, a beautiful scenery jumped into Zheng Shuang's eyes.Zheng Shuang's eyes were frozen.

He never expected that there would be such a lively and beautiful girl in the deep mountains and old forests!

When the girl came in and saw the dishes on the table, she smiled and said, "Hello, teacher!"

Zheng Shuang was amazed at how she knew she was a teacher?

The girl, however, saw his doubts, and said with a smile, "Of course the guest who came at the beginning of school was the teacher. Besides, it's hard for ordinary guests to enjoy this winter mackerel soup."

When the girl said this, Zheng Shuang remembered some mountain regulations that the school district leaders had told him a few days ago, and the magical story of Jiupound Ridge that an old teacher told him - boil nine nights!The old teacher said with a smile at that time, if you can enjoy the treatment of "staying up for nine nights" in Jiupound Ridge, you will have no regrets in life!

Zheng Shuang thought when he heard the words "boil for nine nights", since it is for enjoyment, why is it called "boil"?After listening to the story, he realized that the last three nights of staying up for nine nights was to drink the "Zhencao Water" specially made by Shanzhai King.

It is said that this is a kind of water specially used to protect girls’ virginity. If a man has sex within 24 hours, he will die if he drinks this water. This water can prevent diseases.The most beautiful girl in Nine Pound Ridge accompanied Nine Nights without thinking, of course it was "boiling".

After Zheng Shuang heard the story of "Staying for Nine Nights", he didn't believe that such a thing really happened.The old teacher said that this is just a legend.

Even so, when Zheng Shuang saw this girl, his desire to enjoy the "Nine Nights" came out.Although he knew that Jiuye would be difficult to "endure" and even dangerous, but he yearned for it.Even if his body was broken to pieces, he still hoped that he could get the highest courtesy of "staying up for nine nights"!

After the girl explained why she was called Teacher Zheng Shuang, she warmly extended her hand and said to Zheng Shuang with a smile, "My name is Yingxue, and you can call me Xue'er." Zheng Shuang was surprised by her cleverness and boldness.Zheng Shuang didn't reach out to respond for a moment.Xueer's generosity made Zheng Shuang couldn't believe that she was a woman from the mountains!

At dinner, Xueer drank two glasses of wine with Zheng Shuang before eating.Zheng Shuang drank a lot of wine with Zhai Wang Wang and talked a lot about their school.

It turned out that it was difficult for their school to retain teachers, because the transportation was inconvenient, the mountain village was poor, and none of the private teachers in other villages could feel at ease here.

After Zheng Shuang drank, his pride came up, and he said: "The leader asked me to teach here for a year. Maybe I will fall in love with it and teach here for the rest of my life!" Fun facts about the mountain village.

Zheng Shuang had a great time talking with Zhai Wang Wang!When it was time to go to bed, King Zhai said, "Let Xueer chat with you until three o'clock in the morning tonight!" When Zheng Shuang heard this, his heart beat loudly.

He knew that Zheng Shuang had no choice but to accept the long-awaited test as soon as these words came out of the mouth of the king of the village—that is to say, tonight was the first night of the nine nights!

Xueer is the only daughter of King Zhai.The room where Zheng Shuang sleeps at noon is the guest room of the village chief's house.The village head said it was inconvenient to live in the school.Besides, living in school alone is too lonely.Although Zheng Shuang is quite courageous, in such a deep mountain, let him live alone in a place with no one's house for nearly half a mile, he is really a little afraid of "ghosts hitting the wall".

The village head took Xue'er to Zheng Shuang's room and said, Xue'er, don't neglect the distinguished guest, you must chat with her until three o'clock in the morning, you know?Xue'er blinked and said playfully, Dad, you can rest assured and go to sleep.I promise to get the job done!

Xueer sat opposite Zheng Shuang, smiled and said, the teacher drinks tea.Let me talk about our cottage first tonight, you will not fall asleep if you are not interested in our cottage.Zheng Shuang hurriedly said, no, no, absolutely not.Xueer chatted with him about their cottage.

Xueer told Zheng Shuang about the customs of the cottage.Then he said that many of the customs I mentioned have changed, but it will be of great benefit to you to gain a foothold in the cottage.For example, the custom of "examiner".We Shanzhai people are the most affectionate.

However, if the visitor cannot pass the "examination test", it is very unwelcome.Zheng Shuang asked Xueer how she "examined guests".

Xue Er said with a smile, in fact, when a guest enters the room, he enters the examination room.When the guests come in, we get up and give up our seats.As she spoke, Xue'er stood up and took a small stool with a smile on her face, and said, "What a gentle and emotional mountain breeze, it actually brought you to this cold mountain wild house. Please sit down!" Zheng Shuang looked at Xueer couldn't help laughing at her performance.

Xue'er said, if you follow the past custom, you will fail the first test if you smile.You should take the stool with both hands, say thanks, and sit down immediately.Only in this way will we be satisfied and treat you as our own family.

If you don’t take the stool and choose another seat to sit on yourself: or take the stool, blow it with your mouth and wipe it with your hands before sitting down, we won’t welcome you.Because, you treat us as outsiders, we just sneaked away through the back door like a gust of wind.

If you only laughed and didn't pick up the stool like you did just now, we will think you are laughing, and we will not treat you well.

Fortunately, we don't need to test you on this now, or else, don't drink winter mackerel soup, you don't even want to drink mountain spring water.Zheng Shuang asked Xueer why she changed this custom.

Xueer said that the awareness of the mountain people has improved, meaning that visitors have different customs, and she thinks that others are disrespectful, but others do not mean to be disrespectful. Wouldn't it be unfair to them?

Zheng Shuang asked Xueer how to take the next test?Xueer said, if you pass the first exam, we will happily fetch mountain spring water in a small bamboo tube and deliver it to you solemnly.You must take it readily and drink it up, and say, thank you master for the luscious spring water.

At this time, we will kindly say, very ashamed, fresh water treats each other, you don't dislike it, your heart is purer than our mountain spring water!

At this time, we will help you to the big stool specially set up for elders or distinguished guests, and while we have an intimate chat with you, we will wash the pot and make oil tea.By this time, you can be regarded as "the light boat has passed the double pass".

Xueer giggled when she said this.Xueer's talkativeness and humor made Zheng Shuang look at her even more differently.Zheng Shuang looked at Xueer's flowery smiling face and asked, or was it just "the light boat has passed the second pass"?Do you still have to take the exam?

Xueer said that there is still a final test.That depends on your attitude towards Yaojia Camellia.Zheng Shuang was about to hear Xueer tell him about the final exam, but Xueer said, time is up, I will come to chat with you tomorrow night, I should go back to my room to rest.After Xueer finished speaking, she winked mischievously at Zheng Shuang, giggled and went out the door, leaving Zheng Shuang alone in a daze.
