At that time, San Gong also laughed at Xiaomei, who was just a little older and wanted to take care of herself in old age.
"As long as you like it, I'm worried that you won't be able to adapt after coming here. This is a rural place." Shen Zizhen smiled gently.
Although Su Xiaotian is a country boy, she has lived in the capital for several years and has long adapted to life in the city.
It is inevitable that after adapting to a comfortable life, it is difficult for people to adapt to a difficult living condition.
“The air here makes me feel very comfortable!”
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been in the car for too long that I feel the air here is extra fresh!
The pure, unpolluted air even carries the scent of rice flowers.
There was also an unknown faint fragrance, which Su Xiaotian couldn't place.
But the feeling this place gives Su Xiaotian can be described in two words: comfortable!
Su Xiaotian felt that this trip was quite cost-effective and it was a good choice to live in such a place for a while.
She had even begun to wonder if she should go there again during the holidays.
Or just try to get a house here.
This place seems to be very suitable for recuperation. As my grandparents get older, they can come here to retire in the future.
But such thoughts are fleeting.
My grandparents probably don't want to come here.
For the elderly, no matter how bad their hometown is, it cannot be replaced.
If the two elders do not stay in the capital in the future, it is very likely that they will return to Nanling Village.
In the words of grandpa, people always have to return to their roots after falling leaves!
Now I am willing to stay outside. To put it bluntly, it is actually for the sake of a better future for my children.
Otherwise, Su Xiaotian firmly believes that her grandparents would prefer to stay in their hometown and live a life guarding a few acres of land.
Forget it, it's too early to think about this now.
What's more, it seems impossible for private individuals to buy and sell houses here.
While thinking, Su Xiaotian and others had arrived at the scientific research base.
It is said to be a scientific research base, but it is actually a large square yard.
Behind the yard are neat rice fields.
Su Xiaotian recognized at a glance that the rice field behind the yard was the experimental field.
It can be seen that these experimental fields are well taken care of.
You can see through the iron fence gate that there is a small building in the yard, and there is a row of bungalows next to the small building, about seven or eight rooms.
Su Xiaotian speculated that the small building should be the place where experiments were conducted.
It is estimated that these bungalows may be dormitory kitchens.
"Xiaotian, we're here." Shen Zizhen knocked on the door as she spoke.
Is there anyone else here?
Su Xiaotian thought so.
But then I thought again, there must be someone here. Uncle Shen and the others only come here a few times a year, and these experimental fields need someone to take care of them on a daily basis.
Soon, a man walked out from the bungalow in the corner and walked directly towards the door.
When he saw the person standing at the gate, he jogged over.
This is a middle-aged man of almost forty years old.
The man looked very honest. When he saw Shen Zizhen, he grinned, obviously very happy.
"Teacher Shen, are you here? It's three days earlier than the time promised!"
The Mandarin with a local flavor is a bit hard to pronounce, but you can hear it clearly.
The man was very respectful to Shen Zizhen, and his respect could be felt in the way he spoke.
After the middle-aged man saw the luggage at Shen Zizhen's feet, he quickly took the initiative to help carry the luggage.
"Well, everything is okay here recently?"
Shen Zizhen was also polite.
The luggage was not heavy, but he was really tired along the way.
San Gong already had a lot of luggage in his hands, and he was embarrassed to give his share to Su San Gong for help.
As for Xiaotian, it is naturally impossible for Shen Zizhen to give the luggage to the little girl.
"Xiaotian, let me introduce to you. This is An Ronghua. You can just call me Uncle An. When we are away, their family will help with the things in the fields." Shen Zizhen paused and asked again: "Xiao Mao Aren’t you here?”
Xiao Mao?
Why is this name so random?
When Su Xiaotian was thinking about who Xiaomao was, she heard An Ronghua speak.
"Comrade Mao went out and said he would be back in the evening." An Ronghua replied immediately, but Su Xiaotian felt that An Ronghua seemed to have something else to say.
Shen Zizhen was tired and just wanted to take a rest, so she didn't notice the subtle changes in An Ronghua's expression.
"Xiaotian, this is my dormitory. The one on the left is your third brother's, and the one on the right is your sister Xiaomei's. You can live in your sister Xiaomei's room!"
Su Xiaotian agreed and said, "Okay."
"The opening of my quilt happened to be exposed to the sun today. The weather forecast stated that it will be cloudy for the next two days. Only today will be sunny." An Ronghua was a little embarrassed when he spoke.
Su Xiaotian originally thought that the climate here was humid, and she was worried that the bedding would be uncomfortable if she slept at night without being exposed to the sun. Who knew that the aunt of An Ronghua's family was actually a worried person.
"Thank you very much, and thank you for helping us take care of it, otherwise it would be inconvenient for us to come." Shen Zizhen smiled and thanked: "I brought gifts for your two children from the capital, and I will pack them up later. Come out and let the two of them get it by themselves."
Obviously, Shen Zizhen has a very good relationship with An Ronghua's family, and she should like this family very much.
"How embarrassing is this? We just did what we should do, and you gave us the money."
"We have been riding for a few days and we are hungry. Let your wife cook us some food." Shen Zizhen did not want An Ronghua to refuse any more, so she directly asked for a meal.
An Ronghua patted his head and said, "I'll go right away. I'm afraid you won't eat well on the way. I'll ask my mother to cook something good."
After An Ronghua placed his luggage at Shen Zizhen's door, he hurried towards the house in the corner.
Shen Zizhen smiled helplessly and shook her head.
"Xiao Tian, San Gong, you guys take a rest and wash up first. After dinner, we will all go to bed early. We will get busy early tomorrow morning."
The two brothers and sisters responded when they were busy.
Su Xiaotian opened the door of the house, and the inside of the house was clearly visible.
The house is not big, about sixteen or seventeen square meters, and it is a very simple single-room dormitory.
Next to the window, there is a desk and two wooden stools.
The table was clean. There was a bottle of ink and a stack of manuscript paper, but there was no book in sight.
Su Xiaotian guessed that the book was probably carried by Sister Xiaomei.
After all, in this era, books are the most precious.
There is a single bed at the end of the room, and there is a large wooden cabinet next to the single bed.
Next to the cabinet is a washbasin shelf with an enamel basin on it. The white basin has bright red peonies printed on it.
Next to the washbasin stand are a kettle and a bucket. The bucket has a gourd and ladle.
Although the small house is small and well-equipped, Su Xiaotian likes it very much.
