Chapter 616 Visiting the Huang Family



Chapter 616 Visiting the Huang Family

Mongolian oak, also known as oak, is the preferred raw material for making wooden barrels for storing and brewing wine.

The world's famous wine, brandy, whiskey, etc. are all aged in oak barrels. The wine brewed by aging in oak barrels has a dark color, elegant and delicate aroma, and strong volatile aroma.

Among the woods used for making wine in later generations, American oak has the highest content of cis-oak lactones, while Mongolian oak contains ten times more trans-oak lactones than the other two types of oak.

"Brother Chen Feng, these four trees outside were brought back by my brother. I watch over them for you every day and even pee on them at night."

Huang Lin, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, interrupted.

"Um, I thank you on behalf of the trees!" Chen Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Go away and look at the tree." Sun Xueyan said with disdain to her younger son, but Chen Feng felt that this auntie must love her younger son the most, as you can tell by looking at his clothes.

Both daughters were wearing old men's clothes, which should have been discarded by Huang Rui, but Huang Lin was wearing obviously new clothes.

Don't feel unfair.

This is the way things are in this era. It’s good enough if we can keep our daughter from starving and keep her well clothed.

In the countryside, little girls of Chen Li's age have to do some simple farm work, but when it comes to delicious food, boys are given priority.

At least the Huang family treats food and drink fairly and does not favor boys.

"The last time Huang Rui went to Northeast China, he didn't dare to bring too many things because of the strict inspection on the road. This time when he went to Anhui, I specifically asked him to bring back more tea seedlings."

Huang Xin opened the drawer of the main room and took out a bag of dried mushrooms.

"Originally, I asked him to try to buy some flying dragons from the Pigeon Market, but he didn't buy any and only got these mushrooms in return." Flying dragon refers to the hazel grouse that is unique to the Northeast region.

This pheasant is very beautiful and its meat is very delicious, so people hunted it in large numbers, causing its number to drop sharply. In later generations, it is rare to even see it, let alone eat it. It can only be found in the deep forests of Northeast China!

"When you go back later, remember to bring it with you."

Chen Feng smiled and shook his head, "Uncle Huang, this is really not necessary. I have a lot of dried mushrooms at home."

In the spring and summer of this year, he took Chen Hao and others to Yanshan. Most of the mushrooms they bought in that mountain village were picked less than a day ago and were still active.

He released a few into the space and harvested them for several generations, and they became one of the favorite foods of pheasants, wild ducks, and sika deer.

Huang Yun couldn't help but pick up the watermelon again, and held it in front of her chest so that her mother could see it.

My sister is beyond saving!

Huang Feng quietly walked a few steps away.

Sun Xueyan saw it, and if Chen Feng hadn't been there, she would have pinched her daughter's ears.

It's so embarrassing!

All he does is eat and eat. Why doesn’t he think about saying a few more words to Chen Feng?

"Mom, what a big watermelon!" Huang Lin jumped out again and said exaggeratedly.

It's only about five or six pounds in size, not even a quarter of the size of a future big watermelon.

Huang Xin covered his forehead and said, "Cut it, cut it, if you don't cut it, your mother will cut you!"

"Thank you, Dad!" Huang Yun immediately took the watermelon to the table next to her.

Huang Lin also ran in.

Sun Xueyan sighed and said, "You are so old, but you still don't understand. How can you marry someone in the future?"

Chen Feng didn't dare to respond to this.

Huang Xin watched his three children cutting watermelons, touched his pocket and said, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, why do you worry so much? Thank you Xiaofeng for sending these things."

Chen Feng took out a pack of Daqianmen and handed it to him.

"Uncle Huang, take mine."

Huang Xin looked at the cigarette, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Xiao Feng, you are still young, so you should not smoke. When you grow up, smoking and drinking will be fine."

Chen Feng poured out a cigarette and gave it to Huang Xin.

"Uncle, you misunderstood. I don't smoke, only my grandma smokes, and this is for her."

Of course he would not say that he had prepared hundreds of packs of Peony cigarettes for the old lady, and one pack of first-grade Peony could buy two packs of second-grade Daqianmen.

"That's good, that's good." Huang Xin took the cigarette, lit it with a match, and took a deep puff.

Chen Feng put away his cigarette and asked, "Uncle, do you fry all the tea leaves you grow yourself?"

Huang Xin shook his head and said, "No, the skill of stir-frying tea is more complicated than growing tea. I don't have that ability. I pick the buds and give them all to Lao Xia at once. His father used to make tea, but he was not a master."

"I have so little tea leaves, and there's no need to make it complicated. Just make it simple. Lao Xia and I will give them away as gifts."

"Let's eat watermelon!"

Huang Lin shouted.

Sisters Huang Feng and Huang Yun took watermelons and gave them to the three people they were chatting with.

Huang Xin waved at Huang Yun, and Huang Yun brought the watermelon to Chen Feng.

"Brother Xiaofeng, eat watermelon!"

"Okay, thank you." Chen Feng pretended not to notice Huang Xin's embarrassment.

Huang Feng gave the watermelon to her mother, then noticed her father's raised hand, and quickly offered the watermelon in her other hand.

Old Huang felt so disappointed!

Chen Feng smiled and ate a few bites of watermelon, then said, "Uncle Huang, have you ever been to the Northeast? Are there really spirits there?"

"I've been to the Northeast before, transporting leather, ginseng, and the like, but I didn't stay long. I heard from people there that when the country was founded, many exorcists were captured. Most of them were scammers, but some were accidentally trapped by fox spirits."

Huang Xin used to be a driver. He had been to many places and seen a lot of things. He believed in this thing and believed it was true.

The three people who were eating melons treated this as a melon-eating story.

People who grew up under the red flag will not believe in this thing. Only the older generation has a certain awe for it.

"Dad, it must be fake, just a rumor." Huang Feng felt that his father was talking nonsense and said, "This is feudal superstition, fake!"

Huang Xin did not refute, and said with a smile: "They say it is a fox fairy. It is rumored that a fox becomes a spirit and its soul attaches itself to a human after death. I don't know whether it is true or not. Anyway, I have never seen it."

"We should stay away from this kind of thing. Don't offend it, and don't touch it."

Chen Feng nodded, and when he finished smoking a cigarette, he handed him another one.

He didn't inhale much and just clamped it on his ear.

After sitting for more than ten minutes, Chen Feng stood up and said goodbye.

"Big brother, how are you going to take the saplings back?" Huang Lin accepted the five White Rabbit milk candies given by Chen Feng, and was so happy that he couldn't hide his smile.

The other two also got five.

Sun Xueyan, on the other hand, was somewhat embarrassed by her children's behavior.

"I rode my family's tricycle here to transport these saplings."

"Okay, Xueyan, Feng, and Yun, come with me to move the saplings." Huang Xin ordered.

Chen Feng stopped Sun Xueyan and said, "Uncle, no need. You and I can do it. The two girls don't need it."

"I'm very strong!" Huang Yun said carelessly, "I was the one who moved all the jars out of my house."

Huang Lin said from the side: "Sister, I helped you move it."

"you shut up!"

Sun Xueyan didn't want to watch any more!
