Warm spring, a derivative of vitality, the lilac tree in this yard, but also in the branches twisted out of the small roll, is growing, the willow tree is also more clingy, just swaying in the spring wind, looking like it is going to green branches, even this winter has been lifeless bamboo, it seems to be rejuvenated, vigorous a lot, a lush look, cherry blossom trees, mountain peach blossom branches, etc., are green a lot, and the spring flowers next to this rockery, as if it is late, now is the wind blowing, It also tied up the spring for a long time, and the people under the spring light, as if they were liberated from the haze of the "new crown", happily enjoyed this great spring light, and this is the answer to the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic" that "spring and March, wear hair slowly, walk widely in the hall", they are bathed in the rewards of spring.
After work at noon, I walked out of the hospital door, and when I came to the middle door of our yard, I saw a "sharpening knife" person, who was sharpening the knife at our door, which was the kind of "grinding scissors" in the "Red Lantern" we had seen in the past! Chopper!" People, therefore, only those who have experienced the past can experience what it is like to see these people. Today he will come to our door, and when I was still wondering, I heard an acquaintance in the courtyard who was watching say, "This is me calling from the red door!" I suddenly realized. Look at this knife sharpener again, it is an old man, a bench, a small tricycle, the salute is simple and light, and this old man, while sitting on his bench, single-mindedly "gong" the kitchen knife in his hand, while and the surrounding onlookers, joking, this old lady's head, that is, sixty miles away, tall, red square face, white short hair, short fluffy beard, and chirping around his face, because it is work, he also took off his coat and put it on the front of the car. A white earth red sweater made him look much stronger, his hands, pushing and pulling, had strength, and he was full of breath in his speech. A few people in our yard still surrounded him and joked with him in the gag, and this knife sharpener, who was "stupid" to say that these people were making trouble, were "choked" by these sub-people and had nothing to say, so they had to circle the field and talk about the knives of the people in the courtyard he was holding in his hand, without the words of "steel", and also talked about the "white water knife" that had been circulating in our place for a long time.
I saw a new knife in his tricycle and asked him, "Do you still sell knives?" He said, "I originally didn't sell knives, so I can see that the knives people bring are not much steel, which is not good, so I took some good knives!" I asked him, "More money?" He said, "Fifty dollars a piece!" If you want it, don't take this knife! With that, he got up, removed a knife that had been placed on the surface of the tricycle box, drew a knife from the inside and handed it to me, saying, "Take this knife!" This is the knife I have sharpened! ", I looked, it is true, this knife is sharper than the knife he just took away, the gnates are glowing blue, a look to know, it should be a sharp good knife, I thought "not expensive, and Zhou Mo I saw the knife seller's knife in the mall, a price, anyway, I also want to buy a knife, our family's knife, although it is easy to use, but it is still too long, the knife handle is a little loose a lot! ", I opened WeChat, paid him fifty yuan, took the knife in my hand, tried it, and really took advantage of the hand, the weight was enough, I said goodbye to them, and went home with the knife satisfactorily.
On the way, there are still people in our yard, holding knives and going to find the knife sharpener one after another. It seems that this "ancient" craft is still very popular with everyone, and it is only eight yuan for this time to sharpen the knife, which is at best the hard work of this sharpener, and it is not expensive. I hope that this ancient craft can be rejuvenated and permanently passed down, so that these fast-paced lives will also slow down, alleviate the tense life of the following people, and also let this craftsman have a bowl of rice to eat, and it will be convenient for the lives of the general public!
