Chapter 60 This weird weather!
"Yes, Big Black Horse should be given a majestic name!" Tai Yongan responded immediately. When he was about to speak, he saw his mother's eyes glaring at him, and quickly asked his father, "Dad, what do you think?"
Tai Jizu was actually happy that his wife was strict with the rules for their son. When the elders were not speaking, the younger ones could not interrupt them.
He responded, “I think so too.”
As he said this, he looked at his two younger brothers.
Tai Jizong was interested in various crafts and had a general fondness for farming and livestock, so he nodded casually.
Tai Jiye excitedly proposed two options, "How about calling the Dark Horse the Black Whirlwind, or the Black Tiger?"
These two names were immediately opposed by the whole family!
"It doesn't sound good. Black Whirlwind sounds like a thief's name."
"Black Tiger is a tiger, and Big Black is a horse!"
Tai Jiye touched his nose and decisively withdrew from the naming process.
Everyone talked a lot, and finally the one with the most votes was "Jifeng!"
I have to say that this name is very common, but it is commonly used for both stallions and mares, and it is very vivid and catchy.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue jumped and danced on the ground with burnt hair and half an eyebrow, celebrating that the dark horse had a name.
When it was time to name the little black dog, the whole family unanimously decided to give it to Zhuzhu.
The little black dog lay at Zhuzhu's feet, with his neck raised, his little black eyes rolling around, looking at his little master "eagerly", hoping to get a mighty and domineering name!
As a result, Zhuzhu held her double chin with her chubby hands and thought for a long time before she called out a name, "Black Sesame Ball!"
Yang Lihua asked, "Zhuzhu, why did you give the puppy this name?"
Zhuzhu replied in a serious voice, "Because sesame balls are black, fragrant, sweet and delicious!"
Everyone looked at the little black dog, then thought about the black sesame balls, and couldn't help laughing!
Only the little black dog was lying on the ground like a little black pancake, having completely given up hope on its little master!
The old man immediately made the decision, "Black Sesame Ball, this name is too long, let's just call it Sesame Ball from now on!"
Well, one less word is still less!
Naturally, the whole family had no objection, and Zhuzhu also clapped her chubby hands and firmly supported it.
From then on, the two new members of the Tai family were decided.
The big dark horse Jifeng and the little black dog Zhimaqiu have really taken root!
The strong wind had damaged his vitality, and he had to eat grass and drink water every day, even having to have extra meals at night.
The old man was so cruel that he asked his eldest son to give Ji Feng a bowl of sorghum rice noodles every day!
Zhimaqiu followed Zhuzhu wherever she went. Tai Yonglu and others wanted to play with it, but they had to give it a "bribe"!
I eat sesame balls with whatever my family eats.
Most of the time it's porridge and kimchi soup, and occasionally meat is eaten to satisfy the tooth, but the bones are all used to exercise the teeth!
In a blink of an eye, another two or three days had passed and the fields were almost ready. The villagers became more and more jealous of Dongshan and Beishang, and would go to the foot of the mountain from time to time, hoping that there would be some greenery.
But after the snow melted, the late spring cold that comes every spring did not appear, and the last snow following the late spring cold did not fall either.
As for the spring rain, it is not yet time for it to come.
So, the weather was particularly strange for a while.
Not that cold, not that warm either.
There is no shortage of water in the fields and forests, but there is no abundance of it either...
Seeing other people like this, the boys of the Tai family couldn't stand it anymore and wandered around the yard all day.
Zhuzhu pointed to the big mountain in the east and wanted to go there.
She was born with the spirit of plants and trees, and she loves the essence of plants and trees in the mountains and forests the most.
It can be said that bathing in the essence of plants and trees is as comfortable as ordinary people soaking in a hot spring.
But the family members didn’t know and thought the kids were just curious!
Only Tai Jiye spoiled the child. After breakfast that day, he pleaded with his father for mercy.
"Dad, everyone in the village is going up the mountain to wander around. Why don't we go and take a look too? We won't have to go too far. If we find any good grass, we can cut some and bring it back for Ji Feng to eat."
Tai Yongan and his friends immediately expressed their support loudly.
"Uncle San is right, let's go mow the grass for Ji Feng!"
"Yes, I want to pick up bird eggs for my sister to eat!"
"Digging wild vegetables, I want to dig wild vegetables!"
Even Zhuzhu hugged Grandpa's thigh and acted coquettishly, "Grandpa, go to the mountains! Zhuzhu wants to go to the mountains!"
If those brats go into the mountains, the old man will just send his sons to follow and look after them.
But his granddaughter also wants to go with him, and the old man is worried about who will take care of her.
Since there wasn't much work to do at home, he simply said, "Second son, stay home. The eldest and third sons, come with me and take the children for a walk in the mountains. We don't need to make a big fuss so that everyone in the village knows about it. Let's just go and take a look."
"Oh, Grandpa is so nice!"
“Up the mountain, up the mountain!”
The boys were so happy that they jumped up immediately and made preparations.
There may not be any insects or snakes on the mountain at this time of year, but the boys still tied up their trouser legs and cuffs to make it more convenient when walking and avoid scratching bushes and dead branches.
Yang Lihua changed her daughter into a coat with tight sleeves and collar to prevent her from catching a cold. She also put a thin hat on her and put two snacks in a small cloth bag to prevent her from going hungry.
The old man carried the basket, put his granddaughter in it, and then set off with his children and grandchildren.
The whole family, young and old, walked around the small path behind the village, but did not meet any villagers.
Firstly, the old man didn't want the villagers to know his whereabouts. Secondly, if the villagers wanted to follow him, it would be difficult to refuse. But once they got to the mountain and encountered danger, they would have to save people and take responsibility at the same time, which would be a thankless task.
We entered the mountains smoothly. Although the grass and trees in the forest had not yet sprouted, the tree trunks had already shown signs of moisture after taking off the thick cotton coats of winter snow.
