Chen Shi and Shen Xue lived in Yaomei's house. When Chen Shi asked, he found out that Yaomei and Xiaobing were already ten years old, but you couldn't tell by looking at their height. Nowadays, the children in the city have heads and figures around ten years old.
Yaomei, with a thin figure, looks to be six or seven years old at most.
Shen Xue was walking around the house. She had never lived in a place like this before, and she had never seen her before. She was a Beijing girl with a good reputation, but many people would think that a Beijing girl shouldn't say, "Don't you eat it?"
Wait.
In fact, basically after the popularization of Mandarin, especially the younger generation, just like children in various regions, they pay attention to oral pronunciation, and many children can only speak formal Mandarin.
Just like many children in Modu cannot speak Modu Hua, but they can understand it. The same is true in the Imperial City. If the pronunciation of Erhua is particularly strong, don’t think about it. Either the family specially taught it or the relatively older Ba
After 2000, there are very few young people.
Nowadays, many places have introduced policies to protect local accents and protect local dialects from being lost. That is to say, most children basically only know Mandarin, and parents basically communicate with their children in Mandarin.
Yaomei and Xiaobing's Mandarin has a strong local accent, but fortunately they can understand it. Shen Xue looked at the walls of the house, the ground, the roof of the beam, and the bed where they lived. To be honest, it was really difficult.
Accept, you can't say that Shen Xue is coquettish. If it were you, you might not be able to adapt to this.
The first point is hygiene. This bed obviously smells, and there is a lot of dirt on the sheets and quilts. This is really unacceptable for some people, especially those who love cleanliness. Shen Xue almost went to the toilet again.
Dry vomiting, the first time I came into contact with a latrine. You can't flush it with water, and there are a lot of mosquitoes.
Looking at the dining area, the bowls, chopsticks and stoves are obviously dirty. Compared to Xiaobing’s house, Yaomei’s house is indeed a bit dirty and messy. There’s nothing we can do about it. Yaomei is with her grandfather, and he rarely comes over, and grandpa doesn’t come over.
The place where I live is not sanitary either. Xiaobing has his sister to take care of him at home.
Chen Shi saw Shen Xue's discomfort, walked up to her and said, "Come on, marry a chicken as a chicken, marry a dog, that's the condition of our family. But I brought you a little surprise, do you want to see it?"
"Tch! I want to marry a man instead of a domestic animal. What's the surprise?" Shen Xue asked.
Chen Shi brought the suitcase he brought and said, "Look, I brought you sheets, blankets, and pillows. It's very comfortable to sleep under a blanket in this season. And I saw the climate here when I came here."
Report, there is no fan or air conditioner here and it is not hot. Please warm your heart. I will give a set to Teacher Liu."
"Lick the dog!" Shen Xue said.
"What did you say? I'm a licker? I'm not! I'm a warm man! Look, I brought you a change of clothes just in case you didn't have to wear them, and also an Ultraman suit." Chen Shi
He took out another bag from the suitcase and handed it to Shen Xue.
Shen Xue opened it and took a look! "You pervert! You actually touch these things on me. It's disgusting. Also! What is this! Please explain it to me!" Shen Xue took out a set of underwear with two arcs on the left and right.
The fig leaf is printed with Ultraman, and the triangular fig leaf on the lower body is printed with a pattern of Superman.
"Don't you think it's childlike to wear this?"
"Tongqu, your sister, I think you want to have fun. Do you know the correct definition of Tongqu?"
"I know, you think I'm not innocent? Not childlike? Then I'll sleep with you in my arms tonight, and I'll make sure you know that I'm still a child."
"Go to hell! I'm going to change the sheets." Shen Xue hummed a little tune and went to change the sheets. It was obvious that she was very happy. This guy was really thoughtful. Now she can sleep peacefully and comfortably. Wait.
~What is here?
Shen Xue found that there were things in the sheets, including mosquito bites, sanitary napkins, ginger tea, toothbrush cups, towels, and a pair of slip-on sandals. This guy was very thoughtful. Did he really transform from a scumbag to a warm guy?
Already?
Chen Shi went to visit Liu Hui with his things in his hands. Liu Hui was more mysophobic than Shen Xue. Not only Liu Hui but also her two assistants. Chen Shi knew that the highest level of kneeling and licking is to let others not know that you are kneeling.
Lick a certain person to prevent you from kneeling and licking, so Chen Shi also prepared these for the other two assistants, which instantly made them like Chen Shi through the roof.
Liu Hui took the toothbrushing cup prepared by Chen Shi. This detail was well done. There were also towels for washing the face, washing the feet, and washing the butt. The most important thing was that this guy also prepared a washbasin for them.
The footbath was so well done in detail that it made Liu Hui curious what this little guy wanted to do? How many things could he pull on the car?
But Liu Hui is a little curious. This child is indeed very careful, but there are some things that are not enough for you to be careful. For example, if you have never been here before, you don’t even know how many mosquitoes there are. The most important thing is to give this little guy back to her.
He prepared a chamber pot, which was indeed much more convenient, and also prepared disposable garbage bags specifically for use in the chamber pot. He knew that he could not accept the toilet here.
Putting so many details together can only prove one thing. This child has lived in the countryside and knows how city people feel when they come to the countryside, or how people who have stayed outside for a long time return to the countryside feel. Liu Hui can leave here soon.
It's been ten years, more than thirty years since I left my motherland.
"Have you ever lived in a rural area before?" Liu Hui looked at Chen Shi and asked while holding a thermos cup.
"I have lived there. When I was a child, I used to go back to the countryside to stay for a while every winter and summer vacation. But when I grew up, I went back to look for it."
"Why don't you go back so much?"
"I have to work, I have to make ends meet, and there are no winter or summer vacations anymore. Even if I do, I go back less often. Mainly I feel like I am unfamiliar with the place. My hometown is called Chenjia Village. Most of the people in the village have the surname Chen. We are basically relatives in the village. When I was a child,
My son thinks that rural areas are great, but as he grows up, he likes cities even more.
Once the door is closed, no one will ask about anyone else's family affairs. At most, they will quarrel with their colleagues. If they don't like it, they will find another company. But this is not possible in rural areas. If there is a relationship, it is likely that generations of people will be hostile, because it is likely that several generations of people live in the same house.
There, and the population is fixed, there are only so many people, and offending someone would be a life-long enmity.
Especially when we get into fights over trivial things, maybe it’s okay to stay together every day. At the beginning of the year, I had two buddies chatting in the WeChat group very happily. Everyone was working hard outside, so it was hard to do it during the holidays.
Let's get together.
But this time they got together for a bit long, and the two adults had some troubles in the village recently. As a result, the two families started fighting and were taken away by ambulance. People, if you get along for a long time, there will be more conflicts. No matter how good things are,
There will also be conflicting feelings.
Unlike in the city where there are many places to de-stress and relax, such as going to a supermarket, going to an amusement park, going to the movies on holidays, or checking in at some newly opened Internet celebrity places, there are fewer places to de-stress in rural areas, and they are just for entertainment.
The place is also good, so young people cannot be retained. Young people who have some money will go to towns, counties or cities to buy houses.
I don’t know whether we have changed or the environment has changed. Anyway, when I was a child, I loved being in the countryside. In the summer, I would play with my friends in the woods and catch shrimps and fish. But when I grew up, I even forgot about it. I have forgotten the appearance and names of those friends, and I have even forgotten the happiness.
Fortunately, the construction of new rural areas has been accelerated, and soon the gap between urban and rural areas will become smaller and smaller."
Liu Jing looked at Chen Shi, Chenjiacun? Chenjiacun? Chenjiacun? These three words echoed in Liu Jing's mind over and over again.
