Novel Peach Blossom Village - Nian Guan (23)

This winter is exceptionally cold, and in the wax month, every house hangs bacon, wax duck, and wax fish in front of every door. In the sunlight, the body of the wax duck hanging on a bamboo pole was covered with layers of shiny oil, and the ground was also stained with dots of mimeographs.

I don't know when it started, bacon dishes became the main dish of Chinese New Year's Eve meals, and became the highlight of entertaining guests during the Spring Festival. Which family is willing to eat, look at the amount of bacon hanging at the door.

Ye Heshan was plucking radishes in the field and throwing large and long white radishes into the bamboo frame. After Tao Hong went to work in the county seat, Ye Heshan lived alone at home, and the lonely people became more and more old, more and more old, more than sixty years old, hunched over, walking slowly, and their eyes and ears were not as good as before. Although he does not have any living burden now, the industrious rural people have been accustomed to farming all their lives, and they still can't stop in their hands.

The family has several big pigs, and Ye Heshan plans to sell the pigs before the New Year. It turned out that selling pigs to Xia Fugui could sell for a good price, and since Xia Fugui's leg was injured and he could no longer drive, the truck was sold. Now if you want to sell pigs, you have to go to the market in the town to find the pig dealer to pull the door, but the price has to be decided by the pig dealer.

Liu Changwen looked at Ye Heshan pulling turnips and walked over: Big Brother Heshan, your radishes grow really well, can you eat so many turnips?

Ye Heshan looked back at Liu Changwen: Hey, Teacher Liu, on this cold day, it is rare to see you visiting the vegetable garden field.

"It's school holidays, and I'm idle, going around."

"Qingzhu University is also on holiday, right?" When will I come back for the New Year? ”

"I don't know yet, I didn't hear her say it, I guess it's fast." When will Peach come home for the New Year? Liu Changwen frowned and said

"She had to come back Chinese New Year's Eve, the supermarket business was so good for the New Year, and the supermarket owner had to finish the business of Chinese New Year's Eve before he was willing to close the door."

"You are at home alone now, and you still cultivate so much land, you are really not afraid of hard work."

"Plant the land for a lifetime, get used to it." There are also a few pigs in the family, cut some of their own vegetables and mix some feed, feed the pigs to grow fast. ”

"Brother Heshan, you sold a few big pigs back, and you want to have a fat year."

"Haha, it doesn't sell much." Ye Heshan smiled and replied, coughing violently from excitement.

Liu Changwen saw that Ye Heshan's face was purple from coughing violently to his neck, and he couldn't say anything, so he comforted: "Brother Heshan, the weather is too cold, go home early, take care of your body." ”

"This cough is an old problem, fill this frame of radishes and go back." Ye Heshan gasped as he responded to Liu Changwen

Liu Changwen waved to Ye Heshan and went to the direction of Taohua Primary School, and he did not want to go home at the moment.

The road from the entrance of Taohua Primary School through the village committee to the Taohua Bridge has changed from the original mud road to a long cement road.

In the distance, I saw Xia Fugui's wife pushing Xia Fugui's wheelchair out of the commissary next to the village committee, and Xia Fugui was sitting leisurely in a wheelchair, with two plastic bags full of items hanging from the handle of the wheelchair.

Xia Fugui has been unable to stand up since the left leg injured in the car accident and can only rely on crutches to get out. Fortunately, after my daughter made money in business, she changed his wheelchair for him, and now it is much easier to go out. After the crippled Xia Fugui could also see it, happy day, people still gained a lot of weight.

Xia Fugui, who was sharp-eyed, saw Liu Changwen coming from afar and shouted, "Teacher Liu, what are you going to do in the fields on this cold day?" ”

"I'm okay to be idle, I'm going around. Rich, what have you bought? ”

"Teacher Liu, today's family makes rice cakes, come to the small shop to buy some sugar, flour, rice noodles or something." Xia Fugui's wife replied

"Sister-in-law, you are skillful, and the rice cake is well done."

"Teacher Liu really can talk, the children are older, rice cakes are not many people love to eat, this is not, the Spring Festival is coming, or more or less do something to meet the festival." Teacher Liu, another day you have time to come to your house and sit down and try it. ”

"Hey, okay, are Xia Yu and Xia Yang back for the New Year?"

Xia Yu said that he was going to come back, Xia Yang did not say, he, the hotel chef, is even busier in the New Year. We don't expect him anymore. Qingzhu University is on vacation, coming back soon, right? Xia Fugui replied

"Yes, it should be fast." Liu Changwen replied confusedly

"Teacher Liu, let's go back first and come to the house to play in the New Year."

After a few greetings, it's time to go home

Xia Fugui knew that the relationship between the two fathers and daughters had become frozen because of Liu Changwen's change of volunteering at Qingzhu University. This matter, Xia Fugui has always been unable to understand. The eldest girl Liu Qingqing became a teacher after graduating from Normal University, and the little girl Liu Qingzhu was also very competitively admitted to a key university, what a good thing, why did Liu Changwen change his daughter's volunteer.

If my daughter Xia Fugui can be admitted to college, then my daughter wants the moon in the sky, and I would hate to pick it for her. It's just a pity that my Xia family has never produced a talent to read.

But then again, although Xia Yu only has the first Chinese, she is now doing a good job in the clothing business in the provincial city. The clothes worn by the couple all year round, as well as food supplements, were all sent back by their daughters. His son Xia Yang also became a chef in a five-star hotel, and his income was not bad, but he was almost thirty years old and had not yet married. Don't worry, men's careers are important, and it doesn't matter if you wait for another two years.

Now Xia Fugui's greatest wish is that his children can settle down in the provincial city and not return to the countryside. He has not planted a few days of land in his life, and has been running trucks outside, and the economic conditions in the village are stronger than those of ordinary villagers who cultivate land.

From the perspective, Xia Fugui is still more far-sighted than the average farmer. He never thought of tying his children to his side, and when the children were older, they should believe them and let them go out, and young people have the way of living young people. There are many opportunities in big cities, it is easy to make money, and it is naturally better to live and work in the provincial city than to return to Peach Blossom Village. Although the roots are in Peach Blossom Village, the times are different now, and we can no longer be conservative, everything must look forward.

Xia Fugui, who had seen the world, knew that as long as young people were willing to endure hardships and have a flexible mind, they were much better than farming in the city to find a job to make money. If Xia Yang and Xia Yu could settle down in the provincial city and get rid of the peasant life, it would be very good.

Today's rural areas are also different from the original, you see, the people who work in the fields are the elderly, the fields cultivated are also close to home, and the fields that are a little farther away have long been abandoned, and weeds taller than people have grown. There is no way, the young and middle-aged people in the village have gone to the city to work, who wants to go to the fields.

After the villagers worked outside to earn money, some people quietly went to the county seat to buy commercial houses. The child is picked up in a new house, and the child will go to school in the county town. They will be city people from now on, and what an enviable life it is.

A small white car has just passed the Peach Blossom Bridge and is heading towards Peach Blossom Village, whose car will it be...
