Chapter 31 The Eagle on the Snow Mountain

Knowing that his granddaughter and grandson-in-law were coming, Carwan was waiting at the door early.

After a while, I saw a car coming, followed by a trailer carrying containers, and I went up to me.

When Shi Wan'er saw her grandfather, she quickly stopped the car, ran over quickly, and threw herself into the old man's arms.

Karwang hugged her tightly and complained: "Ayiguli, my baby, you, the eagle in the snow-capped mountains, are finally willing to stop your steps and see me, the lonely old man."

Aiguli is Shi Wan'er's Tajik name, which was named by her grandfather, but she only uses a Chinese name, and only someone calls this name here.

"Grandpa, where are you lonely? There are a lot of people with you, including uncle, second uncle, cousin, and others. It should be very lively!" Shi Wan'er asked.

"How could they care about me, the old man. I just want to make money all day long. They are like flying eagles, not home. You come this time, you have to accompany my grandfather for a while."

"Yes." Shi Wan'er nodded and introduced to him: "Grandpa, this is my man Hongming. His friends are all here to participate in the Diaoyang Competition."

"Hello, grandpa." Cai Hongming stepped forward and greeted, and Ji Dong also respectfully stepped forward to greet him.

Tajik is a nation that pays great attention to etiquette. Generally, when men meet, they should shake hands or kiss the back of their hands. When women meet, elders kiss the eyes or foreheads of young people, younger generations kiss the palms of elders, and peers kiss the cheeks and lips. When men and women meet, women kiss the palms of men or shake hands. When children meet parents, they should kiss the palms of parents to show respect. The most enthusiastic etiquette in the family is hugs.

Of course, these are limited to familiar people, and strangers cannot have such courtesy.

Although Cai Hongming is Shi Wan'er's man, he is a stranger to Carwang, so he does not have any enthusiasm and etiquette, just goes up to hug him.

Karwang patted Cai Hongming on the back and said, "The young man is good, but if you want to take away our Tajik eagle, you must be the brave man who has won the tricky sheep. Can you do it?"

"Of course." Cai Hongming said seriously.

"Just be confident." Karwang nodded. He felt that this kid was pretty good. After chatting casually for a few words, he turned to Shi Wan'er and said, "Ayiguli, grandpa has prepared your favorite snacks and wine for you. Let's sit in it." As he said that, he took Shi Wan'er's hand and walked inside.

Shi Wan'er looked at Cai Hongming.

Cai Hongming remembered that the yak he placed in the container had not been released yet, so he hurriedly said, "Grandpa, we brought a few yaks here. I wonder where we were going to put them?"

"You also brought yaks here, so I want to see them."

Cai Hongming and Ji Dong and others released the yaks inside. Karwang couldn't help but see them. These yaks were all specially selected from the yaks transported from various places. They were one in a million and were huge. To be honest, Karwang also felt that the yaks he brought were good.

However, he was not convinced.

After all, the scheming sheep is the best thing for his own tribe. He cannot gain the ambition of others to destroy his majesty, so he said, "The big yak is useless. It also needs to run fast, have enough endurance and good riding skills. These are the keys, otherwise it will never be possible to win the scheming sheep championship.

"Thank you grandpa for your teachings, we will treat you well."

After saying a few words, Karwang led them to settle the yaks in the corner of the manor where the livestock were stocked, and then took them inside to sit.

Most of the houses of Tajik people are large, usually with four or five hundred square meters. In addition to the main house and bedroom, there are also livestock sheds, kitchens, guest rooms, and warehouses. The Karwang family is a big family. The children in the family do not separate their families, but live together, so the place is larger, with at least three acres of land.

The festival to celebrate the grape harvest the day after tomorrow began, so there are no guests in the Karwang family today, but everything has been arranged. Not to mention the magnificent, it is beautiful and has a strong Tajik national style.

When we arrived inside, the hall had already prepared food for guests, including Bramak (milk batter), Taylorti (ghee soaked naan), Arezak (oil cube), milk lumps and other things, and boiled mutton in white water. The Tajiks like to cook larger pieces of meat with clean water and dip them in salt, which is considered to be the original flavor of the soup. They call this method of eating meat "Sirwu" (hand-grabbing mutton).

When everyone sat down, the host of Karwang warmly welcomed everyone to eat and drink.

Shi Wan'er was with his grandfather and introduced the food on the table to Cai Hongming next to him from time to time. It can be seen that his grandfather was also very happy, otherwise he would not have specially taken out the wine he had collected for everyone to drink. The homemade wine, with natural and charming golden, reflects charming luster and stunning colors in the white bowl.

When I smelled it, a tempting fragrance suddenly came to my nose.

Cai Hongming took a bite and his eyes suddenly widened. The wine broke his understanding of the wines sold on the market. He always thought that the wine was sour, but it was not the case, and it was sweet. The wine was sour and astringent with the grapes in its sweetness, which was really rare. Unfortunately, there was no luminous cup, otherwise it would have really responded to Wang Han's words: "Grape wine is luminous cup, and the pipa is about to drink."

This wine is so delicious, it would be great if I could take some back.

Cai Hongming thought that he should tell his wife tonight to see if he could take some back, and there was no need to do too much, just ten or eight orchards.

Carwan didn't know that his grandson-in-law was trying to make wine, otherwise he would probably be able to drive him out.

At this time, a woman came in from outside, greeted Karwang, and ran to Shi Wan'er and said, "Ayiguli, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Let's take you to see good things." As she said that, she took Shi Wan'er's hand and walked out.

Carwan couldn't help but glared at her, "Amina, are there any guests here?"

"Grandpa, I have something to do with Aiguli?"

"If she doesn't come back, you have something to do, if she doesn't come back, you have something to do, and you won't have a day to do it." Karwang said angrily.

"Grandpa, I really have something to do with Aiguli." After saying that, he urged Shi Wan'er to go with her. Shi Wan'er had no choice but to talk to Cai Hongming, and then walked out with her.

"Amina and the others have been used to making trouble since childhood, so don't worry about them. Come on, let's drink our own." Karwang explained to his granddaughter, and then persuaded him to drink. Although the old man's hair and beard are white, his alcohol tolerance is good.

The Tajiks speak Tajik, which is the Eastern Iranian language. Before the 1930s, they also had their own Persian language. Later, because they were taught in Uyghur textbooks in schools, they gradually changed to Uyghur. Now most Tajiks speak Tajik and Uyghur languages, but now there are more and more out of the country who go there to do business. In addition, the government promotes Mandarin, and many people can speak Mandarin, especially young people, most of them will speak.

Although Carwang is not a young man, he sometimes encounters people speaking Mandarin when doing business. After a while, he has learned a lot, and he speaks Mandarin to Cai Hongming and the others. Fortunately, this is the case, otherwise Cai Hongming and the others would probably be listening to thunder, but they don’t understand.

Amina excitedly pulled Shi Wan'er to her room and pulled out a cabinet of clothes for her to show.

"Wow, so many beautiful clothes!"

There are various colorful clothes in the closet, some of which are embroidered with sequins and gold wire, which shines in the sun. As long as they are women, they cannot ignore these beautiful clothes. Shi Wan'er is no exception, so she picked up one and tried it, which felt quite appropriate.

"Amina, where did you come from so many clothes? Why have I never seen them?"

"Of course you haven't seen it. This is my latest design dress. I specially brought it to you as a wedding gift. You are really not interested. You don't even inform me of your marriage, otherwise I will go over and celebrate it for you."

"It's too far. In addition, my dad works in a government department and is now fighting corruption, so he dare not be too arrogant, so he didn't call you so that he wouldn't be promoted by those who are interested."

"Being an official means not being free, it is better for us small businessmen." Amina said on the bed.

"You are not a small businessman, you are the big star in our Tajik. Tell me, what new song has been released recently!" Shi Wan'er gesturing while talking to Amina.

"I took a few MVs and released an album, which is so beautiful. I'll show you." After Amina said that, she jumped out of bed and ran out, and Shi Wan'er shook her head.

Amina is an art school student. After graduation, she came out to sing a song and went to sell clothes. Now she runs a clothing factory herself and her business is pretty good. However, she still sings and occasionally takes on commercial performances. She is very famous in the area of ​​Western Xinjiang and is very popular among young people. (To be continued...)
