Chapter 5 to the home
Walking slowly, Xiao Tao thought wildly, and when he felt that his internal organs were shaking out of position, he finally saw the place where he had dreamed of living in his previous life, green mountains and clear water, paradise, and natural pure air.
Ay! I guess you won't get a terminal illness in such a place!
In front of the village is a big mountain, but it is very strange, not like the mountain system I see in modern times, like the Taihang Mountains rolling through several provinces! All that is in front of you is an isolated mountain, four mountains to be exact and enclose an irregular circle back to back.
Then there are scattered villages around, surrounded by endless fields, which is rare, like a few mountains that have been specially moved from elsewhere!
The scenery on the road is very good, the weather at this time, the early blooming wildflowers on the roadside are blooming, colorful and beautiful, the breeze blows, mixed with the smell of wildflowers and earth.
When I got closer, I saw that the village was not big, and there were about forty or fifty families scattered at the foot of the mountain, and there were several rows in front and back.
After arriving, Xiao Tao looked at a stream about 20 meters wide next to it, the stream was intermittent, full of stones, the water was very clear, and it made people feel good when they looked at it.
Xiao Tao pursed her lips and smiled, habitually rubbing a drop pendant around her neck, which was left to her by an old lady in a nursing home before she died, she was an archaeologist and had no children and no daughters. The pendant is black, I don't know what material it is, I have asked a lot of people who understand, and they all say that it seems to be like a meteorite, and I don't know how it will follow me to wear it, is it that the stone has spirituality? Can't figure it out!
Xiao Tao looked at the stream and it was a big hillside, the hillside was about fifty or sixty meters high, and there was a very high mountain behind it, the mountain was very steep, the cliff was steep, and there was nowhere to stay.
On the big slope, the trees are growing new leaves, and they are all green, and it should not be difficult to think about it.
As soon as he entered the village, someone greeted him on the road, Xiao Tao looked at the few women surrounding the carriage, and before he could react to who it was, he heard the sour words, "Oops! Isn't this a showy father? How did you get back from town? This car's stuff, yo! It's cloth again, it's a quilt, look at this material, it's for your father? ”
Xiao Tao looked at their envious, jealous and hateful eyes, and was speechless for a while, in his previous life, he hated people who liked to chew the root of his tongue and talk nonsense, alas! Do you have to live like this in the future?
As soon as the mother wanted to speak, she was stopped by the eldest brother, and then jumped off the ox cart herself, gave them a salute, and politely said, "Aunt Du, hello aunts, I will also take the autumn exam in the autumn, my father and mother think about me, I am afraid of arguing with me to study, so I will come back to live for a while, and I will take them back after the exam!" In the future, you will take care of it! ”
When several women looked at Zhou Shaoliang, they all touched their clothes, clasped their hands, and looked nervous, Aunt Du covered her mouth and smiled, "Is it?" Ah Liang is really a filial child, he is good at studying, he will definitely be able to get the top prize, and the aunts will follow when the time comes! My dog is better than you, and I'll be satisfied! ”
Xiao Tao got out of the car and remembered whose families several women belonged to, Aunt Du's family lived next door, the three daughters were married, and the youngest son, Gou Sheng, should be thirteen years old, very naughty!
Then look at the small courtyard of my home in front of me, it is a quadrangle courtyard, sitting in the south and facing north of the main house three main rooms, east and west each three companion rooms, the gate is connected to two small rooms, one is for the pile of sundries, one is for the two uncles who have not started a family, the third uncle is twenty-two years old, the fourth uncle is twenty years old, and they have not yet started a family.
Uncle is also a mason, very practical and capable, and he also helped Xiao Tao's family. But now they are all working outside and not at home.
The toilet is in the southwest corner, and the dean looks very neat, but after a long time, the soil skin on the outer wall has fallen off a lot, and the loess inside looks like a gust of wind can blow away a layer.
Xiao Tao followed his father and mother into the door, and saw that the second aunt Xu Lanhua was washing clothes, Xu Lanhua was only twenty-six years old, but she looked haggard, with a dark yellow face, dry hair, and was wearing a gray linen skirt with a few patches on it.
Hearing the voice, the second aunt looked up, her eyes were full of surprise, and then she looked at Xiao Tao and they were all big bags and small bags, and she understood in her heart, and suddenly her face changed, and she sneered, "Oops! Isn't this the old man and the mother of Xiucai, who went to the town in a beautiful way, was this someone who brought him back? ”
The old man and the old lady in the house also came out when they heard the voice, and stood on the steps, the old man was wearing a black robe and a round hat of gray cloth, and he was really happy to see the child, and his face was wrinkled deeper.
"The Boss is back! Good! What about the kids? ”
The old lady wore a bun, gray hair, several dark spots the size of a fingernail on her face, hanging from the corners of her eyes, dark lips, and squinting and humming "Oops! Why did you come back, boss? It's so good to live in the town, and I'm willing to come back, and I don't know how to take your wife over to enjoy it! It's unreasonable! ”
Zhou Shaoliang, who was carrying a burden in the back, followed in, put the burden on the ground, and bowed to the old man and old lady, "Grandparents, have you always been in good health?" ”
The old lady was immediately happy, although she didn't like the eldest daughter-in-law's family, but the eldest grandson was their pride, and the old lady hurriedly twisted her little feet and ran over, "Okay!" Quick, quick, Ah Liang, come into the house, go into the house and drink water! Grandma gives you live sugar water! ”
Zhou Shaoliang smiled gently, "Okay, grandma, let me put things in the house!" ”
Xu Lanhua hurriedly got up to wipe her hands, and ran into the house with a sneering face, Xiao Tao Niang and they saw that the door of the house was not locked, and after entering the house, they saw that there were traces of people living everywhere in the house.
Xiao Tao Niang immediately stopped, glaring at Xu Lanhua, "I said his aunt, although we don't live in this house, but in the end it is our family, why don't you take it without saying a word, your family has no son, if the son wants to get married, I will let me be an uncle, that's right, but you are a girl, why do you occupy so many places?" ”
Xiao Tao also obeyed his mother, and said that he picked up the sore spots of others, but it is also understandable that if you beat someone in the village, you will slap your face, and if you scold someone, you will expose it, how fierce it is, this is the truth!
The second aunt is fortunately stronger, and gave birth to three daughters in a row, and then there is no movement, the youngest Jinhua is five years old, and he can't conceive it, Xiao Tao doesn't think there is anything, but it is a big deal that there is no son in the village!
Xu Lanhua knew that she was at a loss, and muttered, "Aren't you unable to live, I'll discuss with my father and mother and let the child live first, isn't it also a little popular, and it's clean, I'll clean it up for you!" ”
