"Look, that's my home, and it's your home for the next few days, yes, it's the tallest house around, it's more than 200 years old, and it's always belonged to our Baggio family!" After more than half an hour of bumpy driving, BB yelled and danced and pointed to a building on a small mound in front of him to introduce the people in the car that it was their house.

As for how the house is, Hong Tao can't see it clearly, and he can't verify whether that small mound is the highest in this area, anyway, this one is all such mounds, one after the other. However, the scenery here is very good, there is not only a house on the mound, but most of the rest is woods, and there is a small river on the left.

When the car climbed to the top of the mound, Hong Tao finally saw this building clearly, most of them are made of stones, the highest has 3 floors, the lowest is only one floor, and it is piled up into a large building at various angles, it is not like a castle, it is a stone house and it is a bit big, it should be called a stone house pile more accurately.

In front of the stone house is a large yard, very large, almost catching up with the yard of our country's rural areas, basically the top of this small mound is flattened, one-third of the house is built, two-thirds is the yard, and there is a low wall at the edge of the yard that is only to the height of the chest, it is estimated that it is to prevent livestock from running out, and this height cannot prevent human beings.

As soon as BB's car entered the yard, a large group of people rushed out of these buildings, from old ladies and men in their eighties, to bare-bottomed children who couldn't walk steadily, and surrounded the car tightly, and from time to time there were adults and children lying on the glass looking in or greeting, mostly with smiles on their faces.

All the way into the house, Hong Tao and Wang Jian didn't figure out the specific relationship between these people and BB, anyway, there were 2 grandfathers alone, 3 grandmothers, fathers, mothers, second uncles, third uncles, and four aunts, and a lot of other brothers and sisters. No matter how small it is, there are all kinds of nephews, nieces and the like.

This time Hong Tao really experienced the enthusiasm of the Italians, except for the BB couple, most of them do not speak English, but this does not prevent them from expressing cordial greetings to the arrival of Hong Tao and the three of them, they don't care whether you understand or not, they just say to you, of course, before this, you have to hug, stick to the face, the left face is over the right face, the right face is over and the left face. It doesn't seem to be a side.

Italians have a habit that Hong Tao is very tired, that is, whether they are chatting or quarreling, their hands can never be idle, they always have to hold their fingers in front of them in the shape of chicken paws, and the palms of their hands are upward, and their fingers are pinched and released with their speed of speech, just like two flesh flowers.

If it's just one person, it's a bit dazzling and dizzying for 7 or 8 people in front of you, and it seriously affects the brain's concentration. You don't know if it's better to look into the eyes of the person you're talking to, or to look at his hands.

"Dumplings, it seems to be more lively here than your grandmother's house, I like the feeling of living together as a family. The relationship between them is very close, and they are so excited when they talk about everything. Pan didn't know Italian either, but that didn't stop her from smiling and holding a runny child and enjoying the moment.

"You only saw the thief eating meat, but you didn't see the thief being beaten! Of course, it's good when it's good, once there is a conflict between them. It's also troublesome. Hong Tao was embarrassed to tell Pan that if the old man and the old lady left, who should these properties belong to? When the time comes, it will not be the same as a hot kiln?

In fact, many countries in Europe and the United States implement the primogeniture inheritance system, and the general family property, especially real estate or family business. Most of them will be inherited by the eldest son or one of the sons, which can effectively preserve the integrity of the family property and reduce a lot of unnecessary troubles.

And the other children in the family knew from the day they became sensible that these family properties would not belong to them in the end, so they didn't worry about it, they should go out to eat and start a business, and those who should stay at home to help also feel at ease to help, there is nothing to think about.

At this point, our country is not the same, especially after the liberation, the so-called primogeniture is abolished, everyone is equal, as a result, as soon as the old man and the old lady leave, the brothers and sisters will compete with the inheritance of this house, you have more and I have less, it cannot be said that the brothers are against each other, but this phenomenon is also endless.

In addition, there is another popular way in China's rural areas, that is, to divide the family, once the sons are married, all the family property is almost evenly divided, the old man and the old lady follow one or several families to take turns to support, it sounds very good, but the old people who have lost their property will soon become a burden and burden for their children, and the word filial piety has become an ornament, and the old people are comfortable or not, it is conceivable.

The most unreasonable is those rich and entrepreneurs, their family property may eventually be divided equally by several children, which is in line with the principle of equality for all, but once these enterprises are split, the funds must be dispersed, and the strength of the enterprise must have declined. This is also a reason why China has been reforming and opening up for so many years, and it is basically impossible to find big families and big family businesses, except for those official and business families, they are not Chinese, they should be the enemies of the Chinese, worse than the Japanese!

The conditions of the BB family are very good, just like our wealthy villages in China, the first thing is the house, open to live! One room for one person, never improvised. Although not every house has toilets and showers, there are at least two toilets and bathrooms on each floor, which is not bad at all compared to those hostels.

The first dinner after staying at BB's house is quite large, the dining venue is the open space in front of the room, the dining table is ten meters long by several tables, the BB family has changed into clean clothes and sits on both sides of the table, Hong Tao and the three of them are guests, they are arranged in the middle of the table, Pan and Hong Tao are next to each other, BB and Wang Jian sit opposite them, Hong Tao quietly counted while he was not yet serving, okay, even children and adults are full of 35, this is not necessarily the total number of BB's family, Maybe a few more haven't come back.

This is Hong Tao's first serious taste of Italian food, and it must be 100% Italian food, without any impurities. In general, it is more suitable for the taste of Chinese than German food, but the taste is light and not very willing to put salt.

Hong Tao's favorite dishes are salmon fried in red wine and huge veal steaks, which are triangular in shape, each weighing at least 2 catties, and has a bone inside. It tasted very tender and juicy, but it was not greasy, and even Pan had killed a whole piece by himself.

The most interesting thing is a stuffed Italian pizza, when this thing was first served, Hong Tao thought it was a big bun with chicken pieces and a kind of cottage cheese, which is probably similar to what we often call cheese, and it tastes good. But after consulting BB, I realized that this is not a meat bun, but a very authentic Italian pizza.

Everyone in Italy is a drunken putty! This is Hong Tao's deepest feeling after eating this meal. Whether it is an old man or an old lady or a big girl or a little daughter-in-law, not only does everyone have a glass of red wine when they eat, but they have to drink it for a while after eating, and it is a dry drink, no vegetables and no snacks.

Pan is very fond of the wines, which are no less than those from France and Germany. Wang Jian also pretended to be a dog with a glass, and from time to time he and BB discussed the vintage of the wine or something. Hong Tao didn't study the wine, it was sour and astringent, and he really didn't drink any aftertaste, let alone the violet flavor and strawberry flavor they said.

In addition to red wine, Italians have another drink that they never leave in their hands, and that is coffee. It shouldn't be said to be one, it should be said that it is N, all kinds, the colors are not the same, and the cups that hold these coffees are not the same, one will be served with a porcelain cup the size of an eight-coin wine cup, and the one will be served several times larger.
