Chapter 25 Potatoes

The timeline at the beginning of this chapter is before Brother Yi inherited the mountain. I would like to explain here.



For a long time, Brother Yi had been having the same dream over and over again.

In the dream, a kind-hearted old man who resembled the image of a landowner in classical novels kept asking him the same question.

"Quiet, quiet, is your mountain a gold mountain, a silver mountain, or an ordinary mountain?"



The Jingjing in his mouth was Brother Yi's name.

Although from the moment he became conscious, he felt that this name seemed a bit girly and did not fit his personality as a strong adult man, but there was nothing he could do about it, after all, it was his parents who gave it to him.

In this way, he lived for more than twenty years with the name Jingjing.

Fortunately, he was born with a strong nerve, so he never felt there was anything wrong with being called Jingjing.

However, since the "I want to be quiet" joke came out, Brother Yi found out for no reason that his life seemed a little sad: the young people in the village would always joke to anyone who saw him, "I want to be quiet."

quiet……

This was nothing. Later, even the little girls and widows at the head of the village looked strange when they saw him. Whenever he was fooling around with some village boys, their eyes would show

A look of disdain!

This is undoubtedly the most unacceptable to Brother Yi.

"I want to change my name!" For the first time since he was born, Brother Yi had such an idea in his mind.

Not only him, but also Brother Yi's only best friend in the village, Liu Ergou, had the same idea.

At that time, the two of them sat down in a serious manner and had a serious and in-depth discussion on what name to change... and the focus of their dispute finally rested on the ownership of the name "Dehua".

Brother Yi's reasons are very good. As the only educated person in the village (high school) and also a well-known writer on Chicheng Chinese website, he feels that only the temperament he exudes can perfectly fit the name "Dehua".

After saying this, he stood up arrogantly, looking down at Ergou squatting in the mud with a height of 1.6 meters, exuding overwhelming confidence.

And Ergou was not to be outdone. He wore a pair of sunglasses that he found somewhere and held a toothpick in his mouth. He stared at Brother Yi without saying a word, but his flowing hair and crooked corners of his mouth were already exposed.

It was out of his innermost intention.

And he had only one reason, "My surname is Liu!"

Most people in the world know that only the surname Liu is most suitable for the name Dehua.

In this way, the two fell into a stalemate... There can only be one Dehua in a village. This is the consensus and tacit understanding between them.

However, the two proud people believe that only they are the most suitable for the name "Dehua"!

Therefore, the two of them discussed it for a long time, but in the end they could not come up with a solution, and neither of them was willing to give in even a step.

Just like that, the dispute began to spread... At the most serious moment, the two of them just picked up wooden sticks and started a Huashan sword debate in the mud at the end of the village!

In the end, it was Brother Yi who made the final decision, and at the expense of five packs of spicy strips and the schedule of the village king's widow, he successfully pocketed the name Dehua...

You know, in order to accurately obtain the schedule of Widow Wang, he worked from dawn to dusk for a whole month. It included what time Widow Wang got up every day, what time she went to bed, and what time she washed. The details even included her week.

How many times should I take a shower, what angle is best...

Even when he was writing a book, he didn't seem to take it seriously.

Ergou, on the other hand, reluctantly accepted the name Runfa, and the agreement was only reached after Brother Yi made an additional promise and allowed him to choose the life schedule of the two aunts at will.

But in order to show his generosity and make him more willing, Brother Yi specially gave him an English name that fit Liu Yunfa's name - "Dake"!

These are the only few English words that Brother Yi can speak in his short study career, although he has long forgotten what the Chinese meaning of this word is...

But regardless of the meaning, Liu Dake is quite catchy, isn't he?

Therefore, knowledge is power... Brother Yi's ability to defeat Liu Ergou is a clear proof.

Even Liu Ergou, who had not successfully changed his name, was extremely satisfied when he heard the English name Dao. He seemed to have seen signs of integrating himself with international standards... and the name Dehua was finally successfully obtained by Brother Yi.

Although, his heart did hurt a little.

Because the widows and aunts in the village whom he regarded as forbidden wives were finally not his alone. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.



To change the name, you need to go to the police station in the town, which is about half a day's walk from their village.

Usually only when catching up with the big market, Brother Yi and the future Liu Dake would ride on the tractor and wander to the town to take a look at the fashionably dressed girls, drooling and feasting their eyes.

In Brother Yi's impression, apart from the Japanese movie actresses on his mobile phone, the most beautiful women are all here!

But at this time, they simply couldn't bear to wait until the time to go to the market. Their eager hearts were like the birds that let go, and they couldn't stop them no matter what.

Therefore, the day after the agreement was reached, before the rooster crowed, two sneaky figures quietly left the village and headed straight to the town.

However, for the two villagers who were not engaged in production, it was indeed difficult for them to walk such a long distance. They rested while walking, and by the time they arrived at the police station, it was already past noon.

However, the two of them decided to finish everything in one go and find a place to celebrate... what they thought was a new life.

After taking a number, queuing up, and waiting for a long time, it was finally Brother Yi's turn to change his name.

He sat at the window full of expectation, and his mind was already filled with the scene of him returning to the village, showing his ID card, and everyone shouting Dehua with admiring eyes.

Just thinking about it makes me feel inexplicably excited!

"What name do you want to be called?" The warm voice came through the glass, and it sounded like a fairy sound to Brother Yi at this moment.

Thinking of this, Brother Yi couldn't help but feel a little excited, "With this last step, I will no longer be called Jingjing, I am Dehua, Weng Dehua!"

At this moment, Ergou suddenly spoke: "Jingjing, it's almost two o'clock. Look, should we order takeout?"

This call instantly brought Brother Yi, who was immersed in endless reverie, back to reality, "Ah? Order takeout? Order takeout!"

"Next one!" The warm voice sounded again, but there seemed to be some doubts and incomprehension mixed in...

Brother Yi stood up in a daze, and everything around him seemed to have nothing to do with him... He stood blankly in the hall where people were coming and going, and he felt that this world was so strange!

"Takeout! Takeout! Takeout!"

In his mind, countless faces appeared, with sneers and taunts, constantly calling his new name, which made him suffocate!

Since then, the questions raised by the image of the land lord in his dreams have also changed:

"Takeaway, takeaway, is your mountain a gold mountain, a silver mountain, or an ordinary mountain?"

In a daze, Brother Yi seemed to feel that the way he looked at him was no longer as kind as before, and his piercing eyes were just like those of the ignorant women in the village... There seemed to be a hint of ridicule and unclear meaning, just like

Yes, I am a little impatient to let go.

He didn't know if it was his own illusion... but everyone had the illusion of getting rich overnight, and Brother Yi was no exception.

Therefore, every time he dreams, his answer is without exception, "Golden Mountain"!

The words are correct and cannot be doubted.

When he woke up and thought about it carefully, he realized that maybe he had done something wrong?

Because whenever he answered Jinshan, the earthly prince always looked at him with a little disappointment, and then disappeared without a word.

And this naked disappointment became more and more obvious after he successfully changed his name!

Then, I woke up from the dream.

Nothing has changed, the low eaves, the mottled walls, the paper towels on the bedside, and a few paper balls scattered on the ground...

"This is all a broken dream!" Brother Yi shook his head and said angrily and helplessly.

I wonder if it was for the sweet dream that never appeared, or for the illusory possibility of getting rich? In short, he secretly made up his mind to change his answer next time. Will the result be any different?

From this, it can be seen that Jingjing, who is called the first brother by everyone, is actually quite right...or why so many years have passed, and it is only now that I have thought of changing the answer? I don't know what the reason is?



That night, Brother Yi had the same dream again. The old man in the dream seemed to be getting more and more impatient, and he asked straight to the point:

"Takeaway, is your mountain a gold mountain, a silver mountain, or..."

This time, before he could finish his sentence, Brother Yi quickly replied: "Yinshan! It's Yinshan!"

The old man looked startled, as if he was a little surprised... This was the first time he was interrupted by Brother Yi before he finished asking a question.

Immediately, endless ecstasy visibly surged onto his face, perhaps because of this brother's sudden enlightenment... He took a deep look, and then disappeared.

There was a burst of smoke, and Brother Yi suddenly woke up from his dream.

He looked around blankly, but nothing had changed.

"But the ecstasy on his face doesn't look like he's pretending... It seems that we can only try the last answer!" Brother Yi thought.

Seeing that all the mysteries seemed to be completely revealed the next night, Brother Yi couldn't help but feel a lot better. He turned around and opened the Penguin to see if anyone was in the water group again.

What I have to mention here is a rule of Chicheng French Fries’ contracted author group.

As long as an author has a completed book, he has the permanent right of residence in this group. Therefore, most of the time, Brother Yi just stays in the group with peace of mind, blowing shit and killing time.

Seeing the newcomers in the group followed by a few old people shouting "Brother Yi is awesome!", a rich sense of satisfaction arose spontaneously!

When he clicked on the group chat, hundreds of messages flashed by in an instant... Most people might choose to ignore them, but the bored brother would look through them one by one and reply to some messages.

"Today's chat topic is, pen name?" Brother Yi nodded and continued to read the messages.

The Chicheng French Fries contracted author group is always lively. Since everyone has different work and life habits, there are always different people chatting about different topics at each time period, which usually extends to various chat topics.

Thinking of this, Brother Yi's face suddenly showed a bit of malice, and he quickly typed on the keyboard, "If I change my pen name, I will probably call him Tudou next!"

"Potato?" His words shocked everyone instantly. Although Qingfeng Minyue didn't sound very nice, Tudou was somewhat...

"Because potatoes are the father of French fries!"

Looking at "Brother Yi is awesome" who is doing crazy things, Jingjing, oh no, there is an endless smile on the face of the takeaway.
Chapter completed!
