C118

The village of Ox-Head was eight miles away from the town, and there were buses along the way that could be taken for only twenty cents. Ringpelin left the cart at the butcher's shop in the town of Xiangyang, where the butcher had made money and moved to the town, still having a country interest in Xiangyang's blind date.

Therefore, Lin Peilan decided to take a ride with Lin Peiwen to a place close to Ox-Head Village, and then walk to Ox-Head Village. Otherwise, Xiangyang Village would have to walk for more than four miles, and with just their feet, it would be a bit too much for the two of them.

In the car, Ringpelin bought five pancakes and two meat pies. She gave them both to Lin Peiwen, and took a pancake in her hand to eat with the tea.

Lin Peiwen's personality was irritable, but he was really good to his sister. Seeing that Lin Peilan gave him all the meat patties, he naturally didn't eat them. He naturally put one of them into Lin Pei-Lan's hand and took out another pancake with only the taste of salt in it from Lin Pei-Lan's backpack.

"Eating two meat patties in a row is too tiring. Elder sister, you should eat one as well. It's just right for me to eat one meat patty."

After all this, the little guy grew up to be sensible.

"Big sister doesn't like it. If you're tired of it, just eat a flat cake. I'll leave the meat pie for you to eat when you're hungry!"

"No need. One is enough, look at the fat inside, it's oily. "

Lin Peiwen took a bite of the meat patty and purposely showed Lin Pei-lan the fat meat and green onions inside. Lin Pei-lan had already eaten the meat patties, they were all baked in the oven, how could they still be so fat? The meat was very fragrant in his mouth, but Lin Pei-wen could not bear to eat them, so he intentionally said that.

"Girl, do you have a lot of meat patties? Can you give me a few bars? I got in the car early in the morning and haven't had anything to eat! "

The siblings modestly handed over a meat patty. The passersby smelled the scallion oil and were a little hungry on the way, so they asked to buy the meat patty to eat.

"Yes!" If there's the right one, we'll give all of you money. "

As soon as one person spoke, other people in the car agreed. After all, there wasn't much dry food in this year, and even in the summer, they couldn't help letting go. They could take the long distance and still stop for a meal, but the short distance would mean they had to starve.

"Sorry everyone, but I bought two for my little brother to eat. I don't have anything extra."

Lin Peiwen glared at Lin Peiwen and pushed the meat patty into his hand. With more than twenty passengers on the bus, if they continued to humbly step down, they would only be watching for a good show.

Lin Peiwen obediently accepted the food and continued to eat without a word. He was overjoyed. His sister was reluctant to eat, so she left all the good things for him, even if he wanted them, he wouldn't give them to her.

The passenger, regretting that he had not bought any meat patties, had not brought any rations with him on the journey. He knew that he had bought some food from the town he had just come from, and that the meat patties there were the most famous of the hundred years old.

It would take about half an hour for them to walk a few miles. It would be much faster if they took the bus. After the siblings finished eating, they would arrive in twenty minutes.

The path from the car was just a boundary marker. On a desolate mountain, there was a small path that people had stepped on.

"Let's go!" "The mountain roads are next."

The siblings walked on the mountain path at a decent pace. After all, they walked frequently. Even though Xiangyang Village was a mountain road, they felt that it wasn't easy to walk on it in the past. It was much better than walking on Ox-Head Village.

The slope up and down was really like flipping over an ox. It was no wonder that the old grandma went to the town early yesterday to sell tea leaves. He didn't dare to walk on this mountain path in the dark.

When the two arrived at the village, they saw a six or seven year old little boy running towards them. His face was yellow and skinny, and the clothes he wore were patched up so that the original material could no longer be seen.

"Elder sister, are you here to collect tea? "My grandma told me to come to the village entrance to pick up your family."

So this little boy was actually the grandson of the old grandma. It was hard for her to be so careful of him, and she still kept her grandson here to lead the way for Lin Peilan.

"How did little brother know I was here to collect tea?" Rinperan asked with a smile.

"I know everyone in the village, only elder sister and this elder brother don't know each other. She's also carrying a bag, so she must be here to do business."

"Wah!" "You're so obedient." Ringpelin took a biscuit from his bag and gave it to him. He didn't bring any other snacks, and this was the only one he had left. "Come, sister will give you a biscuit."

"The grandma said I can't take it."

The little boy tried his best not to show the desire to eat and politely refused.

"It's alright, your elder sister knows your grandma, you can eat them."

"Then... Thank you, sister! "It's really delicious." The little fellow said with a blissful expression.

"As long as it's delicious."

The biscuit was bigger than the skinny one's face, and after receiving it, he took a big bite. Lin Peilan found the biscuit funny and sour. The biscuit only had the fragrance of wheat and the taste of salt, it was not as good as the little guy had said.

After walking for a while, he saw some houses, some of which were even thatched roofs, and most of which were black tile earth cells.

This was a village that was even more backward than Xiangyang Village. Although the distance was not too far, it still had a slightly different accent compared to the village.

Along the way, Lin Pilan also met a few old people. They stopped Lin Pilan and conversed with him, and all of them listened attentively. It was most likely that these people had gone to their homes to gather tea today, so Lin Pilan had to wait for their people to come back to collect them.

Along the way, they saw a small tea garden, the tea leaves were smaller than those that Lin Youcai had planted, and the soil of the tea garden was still new, it could be seen that it had just been reclaimed this year.

The tea leaves had a cycle to begin with, and today, he estimated that he wouldn't be able to get much of it.

Ringperan did not go with the little boy to the old woman's house. He sat down in a small grain drying field at the entrance of Ox-Head Village. There was a locust tree planted there, its branches and leaves just right for the shade.

Some of them were even napping under the trees. After all, they were here to collect tea, so they couldn't just hide away. Therefore, they could only chat with the elders while waiting for the person who picked up the tea.

After eating the cake, most of the water in the two military canteens that Lin Peilan brought back was drunk. It wasn't until 2pm that people started returning one after another.

After a while, they heard that they were under the locust tree, so they hurriedly rushed over with their baskets on their backs.

Lin Pei Lan specially came to collect tea, and naturally did not refuse. She checked the tea leaves in the tea basket, and even if there were old leaves and dried twigs, she would not refuse them.

He had to bring the tea leaves properly. Otherwise, if the others thought that he could do it half-heartedly, the tea leaves that he sent over would be even worse.

Most of the wild tea harvested on the mountain was white tea. There were a few oolong tea leaves, and Lin Peilan was already prepared. However, he felt a little helpless when he saw those people mixed in with the tea, as he needed to remind them beforehand or else he would have to go back and pick some.

(The oolong tea here is a type of tea, not a semi-fermented oolong tea made from finished products.)

The less the better, the more laborious, but not easy to pick up, can only be done in general, the price naturally can not buy the pure those.
