Four hundred and twentieth chapters longing for life
Zhangjiacun is a small village located on the outskirts of City A. With the continuous development of City A, surrounding villages have also developed. In recent years, there has been an upsurge of people in the city going to the countryside to experience life, which has also benefited several surrounding villages.
After harvesting the crops, there was no more farm work. The villagers in Zhangjia Village began to send out leaflets, welcoming city residents to the farmhouse.
Zhang Dazhu was sitting in the yard smoking, thinking about his eldest son who had not been home for a long time and felt a little worried.
"Dachao, do you think your brother's business is so good? I haven't been home for a month, and I don't know how to call home. Shanshan is sensible and knows to call back from time to time."
Zhang Dachao weaved bamboo baskets skillfully, "My father and my brother opened a flower shop. Think about how high the living standards of people in the city are. If you have nothing to do, you don't have to go to the flower shop to buy a few flowers and put them on the table at home. If my brother is in business
I’ll definitely come back if I’m not busy.”
Zhang Dazhu became very happy when he heard that his eldest son's business was going well, "The flowers and grass in our fields are so pretty, and they can survive just by giving them a scoop of water. People in this big city are just different from us."
Yang Guilan patted the dust on her apron and walked over, "You two, hurry up and clean up the room upstairs. Dahai called to say that Shanshan and her classmates are coming over the weekend. The house in the orchard has also been cleaned, and someone called to make a reservation.
Well. I have also cleaned up two rooms in the backyard, and it’s really good to have business as soon as they open.”
The whole family had gained experience and started to get busy without any rush, drying the quilts, cleaning the house, and entertaining guests from the city.
Liang Mingyue looked at the fields outside the window and felt better, "Look, the crops have been harvested. You should come here early to experience the joy of a good harvest."
There are many abundant crops in autumn. Liang Mingyue saw the peanut seedlings piled on the road and looked forward to the farm stay she was going to next.
Li Haorui parked the car and said with a smile: "Come on, why are you stupid? This village is nice and there is parking space. Let's ask the villagers where the farmhouse is. I will carry the suitcase, and you can just hold the bag."
At this point, the villagers began to prepare lunch, and smoke rose from the chimneys of every house, leaving only children outside who loved to play.
The little ones were not afraid of outsiders. A child with bigger ears stood up and said with a smile: "You are here to play. Which farmhouse are you going to? Our villagers are serious about business and will not cheat."
"
The child who spoke was the son of the village chief. He followed his grandfather around and was more knowledgeable than his peers. He loved to imitate his grandfather's tone and spoke like a little adult.
Liang Mingyue said with a smile: "Hello, we are going to Xingxing Farmhouse. Which of you owns the farmhouse? Please show us the way."
Zhang Mingzhi nodded, turned to the peanut pile and shouted loudly: "Jia Le, you have guests at home, stop playing and take them home."
Zhang Jiale wiped his nose with his clothes and put the yo-yo in his pocket. "After dinner, we will fight for three hundred rounds. I will take the guests home first."
Liang Mingyue looked at the little boy in front of her and said with a smile: "Please lead the way, we have booked a house in your orchard."
Zhang Jiale scratched his hair and smiled silly, revealing his missing front teeth, which made the couple laugh.
"That house is nice and mosquitoes like it. Remember to light mosquito coils at night. My fruits are so fragrant that mosquitoes like to wander in. You haven't eaten yet. Come on, I'll take you back to eat."
Wang Beiluo looked at Gao Feng, who was carrying the luggage, and shyly looked at the second aunt, "Second aunt, didn't you say it was just the two of us, why did you call Gao Feng to come too?"
Wang Erma looked at the smoke rising and said with a smile: "Second aunt, I am an adult beauty. I am not asking you to live in the same room. Don't get too excited. Your parents will rest assured if I live in the same room with you. Gao Feng is an errand boy. You
Seeing as he’s here, we don’t have to carry our suitcases.”
Zhang Mingzhi saw more people coming over and said with a smile: "Aren't you also going to Xingxing Farmhouse? The farmhouses in our village are all pretty good."
Wang Erma said with a smile: "Children with big ears are as smart as me. How do we get to Xingxing Farmhouse?"
Zhang Mingzhi looked at them and said, "Xiao Yu, take them to Jia Le's house. We will wait for you here."
The little girl with two braids nodded, "Come with me, I'm telling you, Jiale's grandma cooks delicious food, especially the chicken stewed with mushrooms she made. I can eat two bowls of rice."
Woolen cloth."
Liang Mingyue grabbed a handful of melon seeds and said with a smile: "Aunt, these are your own fried sunflower seeds. They smell so fragrant that I don't even have to taste them. I think these melon seeds must be delicious."
Yang Guilan happily poured water for the two of them, "It's fine if you like it. My daughter-in-law and I make all the snacks in the countryside. She is good at making melon seeds, and my two little guys love to eat them."
Zhang Jiale held a water cup and drank water, "Grandma and sister are no longer a little girl, she is a big child, and she doesn't even play with us anymore."
Yang Guilan wiped his face with a rag, "Look, you are just a little monkey. You just changed your clothes this morning. Look, they are dirty from playing. Don't move around. I wipe your face. Why are you moving around?"
I don’t know if my face is clean either.”
Zhang Jiale said with a bitter face: "Grandma, has this rag been wiped with chicken excrement? The smell of chicken excrement is so unpleasant. I won't wipe it off and go wash my face."
Zhang Jiale ran out to wash his face. Yang Guilan picked up the rag and felt embarrassed when she smelled it. "It really smells like chicken shit. I made you laugh. I'm going to wash the rag."
Li Haorui laughed, "It's a very interesting family, isn't it? Look at how lively the children in this family are, but our children are too bookish. Children are energetic only when they are lively and jumping around. Look at how that boy is jumping around.
As cute as a little monkey."
Liang Mingyue ate melon seeds leisurely, "This is the first time I heard you praise someone else's child for being cute. If it's cute, it's good. It doesn't need to be like a monkey. This house is nice. You see the house is very clean. It means that the owner
My family is a hard-working family.”
Zhang Jiale washed his face with soap several times before looking in the mirror and saw Xiao Yu running towards the door.
"My dog is tied up and won't bite. Oh, they came to my house too. Thank you."
Wu Li cut the vegetables neatly, "Dad, have you cleaned the guest house? People came here from the city just to experience farm life. That's what the village chief said. Remember to bring the mosquito coils over at night."
Zhang Dachao nodded cheerfully, "I think even if our business is good today, we will cook a few more dishes later. I'm afraid the guests in the city won't be used to it."
Liang Mingyue put down the melon seeds and stood up and said with a smile: "Second mother Bello, you are here too. Gao Feng, you are here to protect Bello. The scenery in the village is nice, you can go and have a good stroll. We have only been here for a while, I don't know if you
Coming."
Everyone said hello and sat down to drink tea and eat melon seeds. Li Haorui had met Gao Feng several times and didn't know that he was Boss Gao's youngest son. He looked at him sitting there in a polite manner and said with a smile: "Relax, here we are.
Have fun strolling around the farmhouse. Look at my wife smiling from ear to ear all morning. Are your parents in good health?"
Gao Feng had met Li Haorui in a magazine. When he saw the real person in front of him, he smiled and said, "I'm not used to going to a strange place. My parents are in good health and they take time to exercise every day."
Wang Erma got up when she smelled the aroma of the food, "This is a dish fried in peanut oil. You guys can chat slowly while I go to the kitchen to take a look."
Yang Guilan came in with washed fruits and said, "Let's try some of our own fruits. There is a peeling knife on the table. You can peel it yourself if you want. After dinner, I will take you to your room. There is a small kitchen outside the room."
and bathroom. If you want to cook for yourself, just go pick vegetables from the vegetable garden. Just tell me what you need. There is also a small supermarket in the village that sells everything."
Liang Mingyue and the others nodded, feeling reassured that the host lived in a harmonious manner.
Li Haorui rubbed his bloated belly and lay down on the bed to eat, "The authentic home-cooked food is really good. The green vegetables just now taste very good, better than the ones in the hotel."
Liang Mingyue burped, "I'm so satisfied with this meal. Didn't you hear Jia Le say that the vegetables are grown in the vegetable field? The vegetables raised by farmers taste authentic. The braised tofu is good, you know we are here
Le’s grandfather even went to the street on his bike to cut meat. I like this very kind family, and I’m so happy to have you by my side.”
Li Haorui held his wife's hand and smiled and said: "It's just a day's work. Look at how happy their family is. Life in this small village is very peaceful. No wonder my friend recommended this place to me."
"It will be more comfortable for us to live in a small village when we grow old. When the child grows up, let him take care of all the company affairs. Let's raise a puppy. The kittens are also very cute, but not chickens or ducks."
I won’t kill them anymore. I feel so lucky when I think about growing old with you! It’s great to watch the flowers bloom and fall together.”
Ordinary life is the life that Liang Mingyue yearns for. Being able to watch flowers bloom and fall with her lover makes her happy just thinking about it.
"We will have grandchildren in the future. Let my son work harder to have more. The couple is too busy to take care of us, so they can't think about it and rush to the age of retirement."
Li Haorui hugged his wife, "You were worried a few days ago that your child had no choice but to take over the family business. Today you are thinking of letting him take over the family business and have more children. You changed your mind so quickly."
Liang Mingyue turned around and hugged her husband's waist, "Hey, I'm his biological mother. If he doesn't accept it, why should you still go to work in the company at the age of retirement? He doesn't feel sorry for me. I feel sorry for him. It would be great for us to live an ordinary life. There is nothing else.
It’s a wonderful time with little bitches causing trouble and no trivial matters.”
Li Haorui nodded, hugged his wife and rested with his eyes closed, feeling very stable and warm in his heart. (To be continued)
