Mr. Zhou lives in a big house. After all, the whole village has a small amount of agricultural tools and other debris. However, the tools and debris in the past were piled up randomly, and a little bit of tidying up can make a lot of space.

In addition to various farm tools, the most popular one in the house is books, which occupy almost one-third of the entire farmhouse. In front of the pile of books is a small bed and quilt that looks a bit thin, and then moves forward there are all kinds of debris.

Since the production team stopped eating in big pots, a simple kitchen was built with wood and thatch at the entrance of the farmhouse. A few pieces of adobe were equipped with a pot with a gap on the edge. This is where Mr. Zhou usually eats.

"Brother, go." A tender voice sounded from the huge but crowded farmhouse.

Mr. Zhou, who was looking down at the thick bricks, was fighting with books as much as he was writing, and he looked up and the two children came into his eyes.

As soon as he entered here, Yang Dongxu was shocked by the piles of books, especially those thread-bound books that looked a little vintage, which made him think of antiques and almost drool.

The extreme quietness made Dandan, who was only three years old, obviously a little scared, so after standing for a while, he found that his brother was not moving, so he couldn't help but pull him and speak to break the quiet.

"Go out to play, there is nothing fun here. Be careful that your grandfather will beat you up on the ass." Zhou Yiren looked up at Yang Dongxu and waved his hand to let the two children leave.

Zhou Renyi is very tall, over 1.8 meters tall, and this person is obviously tall now. After several years of hardship, especially the mental pressure, his hair, who is only in his forties, has turned gray and his waist a little hunched.

"Can I read those books?" Yang Dongxu obviously would not leave because of Zhou Yiren's words, but instead pointed to the piles of books behind Zhou Yiren and said.

"Brother, go." Before Zhou Yiren could speak, the little cloth dot beside him pulled Yang Dongxu again, and tears began to flow in her little eyes.

Obviously, Dandan, who is only three years old, has never seen Zhou Yiren. She was so strong that she was not scared to tears by such a big man. But no matter how strong she is, she doesn't want to stay in this place.

"Do you want to read a book?" Zhou Yiren glanced at Yang Dongxu, then took off a missing temple on the bridge of his nose, wiped the reading glasses that were put on his ears as temples and wiped them with his clothes.

"That... I'll talk about it next time." Yang Dongxu smiled apologetically, turned around and took Dandan's little hand. He couldn't hold it in half, and coaxed her mouth while walking: "Don't cry, don't cry, brother will find you candy later."

Although his relationship with Zhou Yirenla is very important, his sister is even more important. Yang Dongxu owed him a lot in his previous life. Later, his sister met his brother-in-law who was far away from SC and married to another place.

He is still a bachelor in his forties and basically doesn't go home, even if it's the Spring Festival, it will only be once every few years. His parents are almost taken care of by his sister. Now Yang Dongxu feels more guilty towards his parents than to the youngest sister in front of him. Seeing that his sister cries is naturally a big deal, he will stand aside if he finds help.

Looking at Yang Dongxu and Zhou Yiren who coaxed Dandan to leave, he was stunned for a moment. Although his eyes were a little bad after taking off his glasses, Yang Dongxu was not far away and his expression could be roughly visible.

So Yang Dongxu's bitter smile, helplessness, but he could not hide his doting expression, and Zhou Yiren saw it. These expressions that obviously should not appear on the face of the baby under six years old in front of him were vividly expressed in an instant.

It was like an adult spoiling his daughter, which made Zhou Yiren feel dazzled for a moment. He hurriedly put on glasses and what Yang Dongxu left behind was a back and words often used to coax children in the countryside.

Shaking his head, he made his somewhat dazed brain clear. Zhou Yiren continued to lower his head to read, but Yang Dongxu's appearance left an impression in his mind.

There was obviously no sugar at Yang Dongxu's family. In this planned economy era, there was a very shortage of various supplies. Except for the great grandfather who could receive better salary as a cadre, he would occasionally have a few pieces of rock candy in his pocket, the whole village could not find a few pieces of candy after rummaging through it.

After coming out of the farmhouse, follow Daliang and the little kids, run from the east to the west to the threshing farm, from the north to the south, and chase each other, you don’t know what you are playing anyway.

He also smiled while holding his sister Dandan Yang Dongxu, but obviously he was not as happy as the little kids around him. The reason why he followed him was not to relive his childhood. Instead, his little body was a little weak, all because of exercise.

When the older kids who went to school at noon came back, the threshing farm was even more lively. Either one hit the other or one beat the other to cry, but the tears started to get together again before they had dried up.

She was afraid that her sister would be crying if she was small, so Yang Dongxu took her home after the eldest child got involved.

When she got home, Yang Dongxu's sister was cooking a pot to prepare for cooking. Nowadays, she didn't have much homework in primary schools because she only had two books on Chinese and mathematics. As for English, ideology and morality, it was a textbook that only came into junior high school. Nowadays, primary schools are not so particular.

I don’t even learn English very much. How can I say that: I am Chinese, don’t learn foreign languages, don’t understand ABC, so I will be the successor...

Therefore, when older girls at home come home, they basically help with housework, or take their younger brothers and sisters. It is normal to go to work in the fields if they are older. After the meal is halfway through Yang Dongxu's father's father came home after the meeting.

"What did you say?" Yang Ma asked hurriedly.

"Say wait and see what will happen there. I don't know if the big father was involved in fishing and went to the brigade (a few natural village superiors). I was called to the brigade by that brigade last night and I only came back this morning."

"Dad is okay?" Yang Ma's expression changed.

"It's okay, how could there be something wrong? The hundreds of households in our Yangjia Village are not easy to mess with. If they dared to lock up their father, the third uncle and the others would have convened a person to demolish the brigade. They said they were staying at the captain's house for a night, and they didn't know what they had talked about." Yang's father waved his hand.

Now the family power in rural areas is much more powerful than those of the same villager who have the same surname in the future. Basically, if something happens to a villager, a group of villagers will rush over. The little kids who are going to school know to call the seniors in the same village for help when they fight at school, not to mention that the eldest grandfather is the village chief.

If you lock up your grandfather, it would be like slapping Yangjia Village in the face. In this era when face is more important than anything else, the places where people in the demolition team are lighter, and if you don’t do it, the captain will be beaten.

"Mom, I want to go to my grandpa's house to play?" Yang Dongxu shouted during the meal.

"What are you going to? Stay honestly at home." Yang's mother knocked on her son's head with chopsticks.

At this time, visiting relatives can be said to be a burden, not that the distance is too far. It is that there is not much food for relatives. If you go there, people will definitely have to entertain them for the sake of face. Isn’t this causing trouble for relatives?

After the beating, Yang's mother put down her chopsticks and said, "Why do you go to our father's side to ask tomorrow?"

Yang Dongxu's grandfather is in Ranyoufang, seven or eight miles away. Although Yang Dongxu has never known where the oil mill is in that place since he was a child, the village is called this name.

Compared with Yangjia Village, Ranyoufang is smaller, with only about fifty families. However, there is a primary school in the village, and it is very close to the township government and the government’s location. Yang Dongxu’s grandfather is the village chief of the village, and his family is very famous in all villages.

When his mother married his father, she was considered a marriage. Yang Dongxu's father was considered a high-spirited person. Occasionally, when the couple quarreled, Yang Dongxu's mother always liked to use this matter to suppress his father.

"Okay, I'll go and ask tomorrow." Dad Yang nodded.

Compared to Grandpa Yang Dongxu who could only talk to the team leader, Yang Dongxu's grandfather was someone who could talk to the township cadres. The village was obviously more advanced than the team, so the news was naturally more informative.

Don’t think it’s a big gift if you give two cabbages and one carp. This is a big gift. During the Chinese New Year, you only give two packs of fruit (not fruits, sealed into big Jing fruits and other gifts) and two packs of candy. For the rich, four packs of fruits, four packs of candy, and if you are rich, you will be decent.

As for the richest fish, people will not give it to you because there is no fish at home. The fish is almost turned into sperm in the water, but you just can't eat it.

Looking at the carp, Yang Dongxu felt that the chopsticks from yesterday were vain. Because the carp is now jumping around, it is obviously not something I just caught from the trench in the house, but the big carp that was distributed to them, Yang Dongxu's father didn't kill and clean it up, but put it in the water tank to raise it.

Why do I keep it? Of course, my mother had already planned to give it to her grandfather's house. Even though Yang Dongxu didn't talk much during dinner yesterday, she would have to go to his grandfather's house these two days.

Nowadays, relatives can only go to visit. Although there are ox carts in the village, it is collective property, obviously not allowed to take advantage of private property.

Yang Dongxu's mother held her sister Dandan, and her father carried a basket of cabbage and carp inside and covered it with a piece of cloth. Although such a gift bucket carrying a pole is more suitable to show off.

But Yang Dongxu's father obviously didn't want to cause trouble for his grandfather. After all, it would be wrong for him to show off.

He went to Houzhai and said hello to his grandfather, asking his sister Hongying to come back at noon to go to their house for lunch to go to school. Yang Dongxu had no one to hug him, so he could only run behind him.

After walking for a while, Yang Dongxu was panting and rode on his father's neck as he wished, but before he could hold the basket in one hand, he felt comfortable on his father's neck for a while, the little sister in his mother's arms started crying.

There was no choice but to let his mother carry her back. The little sister Dandan sat very happily on her father's neck. Her little hand grabbed her father's ear tightly, and with her mother's encouragement, she grinned her teeth.

Even if it is a hiking distance of seven or eight miles, it is not very long, and there are more slanted paths in the fields at this time, which saves distance. Seeing that the sun sets off at about ten o'clock, I walked to my grandfather's house at around eleven o'clock.
