Chapter 16 Delivering Chickens
Three days later, Zhou Heng received a courier message and wanted to go to the town to pick it up. By the way, Zhou Ying and Wang Siqi were sent to the town to take the car back.
Wang Rui is about to take the high school entrance examination, and he will go back to accompany him during this time.
And the express content is some powder bought online a few days ago.
Longxi Village has to rely on him to become the real Longxi Village.
Recently, it has been sunny for so many days, and the crops are in need of water, and if there is water coming out of the mountains, they don't have to look at the harvest.
Zhou Heng carefully looked at the area where the water flowed, and after passing through the low-lying place next to the fields in Longxi Village, he detoured downward, forming a lake in a low valley.
The overflowing water will continue to flow downwards and eventually flow to a tributary of the Yangtze River.
Such a meandering stream of water is like a coiling dragon.
It's no wonder that the former Kanyu Master would name this place "Longxi" Village, that person has real skills.
In the past, when it was underground, this water source also flowed directly to the tributaries of the Yangtze River, but when it flowed away, it flowed away and was not used.
However, Zhou Heng still has to ride his father's electric tricycle out.
In the past, when he was not at home, when his parents were farming, it was inevitable that some people had to move and drag, this kind of three-wheeled thing can be loaded, and it can also be used when going to the street to catch the market, and it is not difficult to drive.
It's just a little bit unimpressive to drive.
And it has to be sunny and sunny, and the northwest wind has to blow.
After working for a few years, Zhou Heng saved one or two hundred thousand, and if he used it to buy a car, he would be able to show off it in the countryside.
But now is certainly not the time. If you make up your mind completely and stay at home to run breeding, it will be too much of a place to use money, and I am afraid that this money will not be enough.
Now, let's just take a moment.
If you don't have a face, Zhou Heng doesn't care about it. If people really have the ability, these things will come sooner or later, and a temporary face does not mean anything.
When she was about to go out, Li Yunlian put a chicken prepared in advance and put it in the back of the car, which was prepared for Hu Jinhua's wife.
The last time I saw him in the town, I knew that his family must not be having a good time, and this time I went to the town, so I sent a chicken to his wife by the way.
After taking medicine and raising it for two or three days, those chickens are also oily and smooth, and it is very good to pick any one, and the coat color is very beautiful.
Chickens are legged and can't escape. But Li Yunlian was afraid that the chickens would be sunburning, so she made a piece of cloth for Zhou Ying to support and shade the sun.
Then, he searched for a little more on the peach tree, picked some red peaches, and put them in the car, fearing that they would be torn upside down, and covered them with thick straw underneath.
I also brought more than 20 eggs, a few catties of peanuts and mung beans, and put them together.
Of course, these have Zhou Ying's share, Wang Rui didn't eat such a chicken, let him taste it too. In fact, every time Zhou Ying goes back from her parents' house, she will load the tricycle until it can't fit anymore.
In the past, people thought that the town was an urban hukou, and they didn't need to farm and eat commercial grain, which was very envious, but now, as long as they are willing to do it in the countryside, they can at least feed themselves and drink.
And these so-called urban hukou, as long as they cut off the way to make money, it is really difficult to eat three meals a day.
Times are advancing, and no one knows how history will go.
Zhou Heng drove the tricycle far away, and occasionally looked back, holding the grass, the big yellow dog was still chasing him.
Did the dog also get Wang Siqi's disease?
This dog was raised by Zhou Heng's parents at home when he went to work, and he was a cub under the local dog in the village.
In the countryside, there are now people who enter houses to steal oil, not to mention how many lazy people are worried about harvesting crops. Having a dog can be a bit of a deterrent.
Zhou Heng used to just come back for the Chinese New Year, and every time he left in a hurry, he didn't establish much relationship with it, but when he came back this time, he was closer to it, and he would bring it when he went out to get fish and shrimp, feed the chickens or something.
I didn't expect this guy to send him so far now.
Zhou Heng stopped the car, comforted it for a while, and told it to go back quickly, this trip is a long way, don't run from heat stroke.
What a guy who can't live up to it.
When he arrived in the town, he first sent Zhou Ying's mother and daughter on a long-distance bus.
Then he didn't go to Hu Jinhua and drove directly to his house.
Their building, compared to the new building in front of it, was getting older and older. Twenty years ago, it was still New Street.
When they arrived at the front of the building, the door of their house was open, and from the outside, an old woman with white hair could be seen, sitting inside blowing an electric fan.
I don't know why, it's clear that it's broad daylight, and the door of their house is open, but it always seems a little dark inside, not bright.
Zhou Heng called someone at the door, and then said, "Auntie, I am a classmate from Jinhua, and now I have come to see you and send you something." ”
The white-haired woman looked at this side slowly, her eyes were very bad, and she didn't recognize Zhou Heng.
After all, so many years have passed. Although Zhou Heng has been here a few times before, he has not come back since he graduated and worked.
And she has been thinking about her for so many years, and she is somewhat slower than normal people.
He waited for a while, but the old woman still didn't recognize him, so she didn't wait any longer, and moved everything in the car into the house.
The woman saw that the extra things on the table were piled up into a small mountain, and then she reacted and asked, "Are you Xiaohua's classmate?"
Zhou Heng let out a "hmm".
After the things were put away, Zhou Heng chatted with her for a while, and now Hu Jinhua has come out and works as a helper in a fertilizer shop, and his father works as a cleaner in a primary school in the town.
In general, the son is back, and the family is full of vitality and hope.
Zhou Heng was very sad, when he used to go to school, he came to Hu Jinhua's house to play, and saw that his parents were so young and capable, and they were very enthusiastic to greet their classmates.
Fate, it's impermanent.
In fact, she shouldn't be called an old woman, she is several years younger than Zhou Heng's mother.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Heng said goodbye and left, and went to get his courier.
He didn't go to Hu Jinhua, but went home first.
At this time, it is already afternoon, and it is a little too late to go to the mountains, so I can only wait for tomorrow.
When I got home, no little guy rushed forward and shouted "Uncle, Uncle", which was really unaccustomed.
It's so quiet, only the big yellow dog wags its tail to welcome it.
The house is really not lively.
In the past, when he was not at home, only his parents were left at home. As my sister Zhou Ying said, my parents will just have a casual meal.
Because he was still at home, they were now a little early, and as soon as the sun went west, they called it a day and went home and made him dinner.
But when they do these things, they take them for granted, and they don't even take them out and talk about them.
Sometimes when I think about it, I really don't know what to say.
You can't always go wrong with them.
At dinner, Zhou Heng was eating and drinking with his parents, and a text message came from his mobile phone.
I thought it was a weather reminder, a phone bill reminder or something, or some website was sending promotional messages, because now apart from these, it seems that basically no one uses text messages.
Who knows, the news was sent by Hu Jinhua.
[Zhou Heng, thank you for sending chickens to my house, I don't know what to say, thank you!]
It turned out that Hu Jinhua had just come home from work at this time and saw a room full of things.
Hu Jinhua hurriedly asked the old lady: "Who sent this?"
"He said it was your classmate. ”
"Which classmate? What's his name?"
The old lady couldn't answer, because she forgot to ask today.
Hu Jinhua thought about it, probably except for Zhou Heng, there may be no one else. There are several classmates in the town, but they all work outside and don't come back, and they don't raise chickens at home.
Therefore, he hurriedly sent a text message to Zhou Heng.
He is not used to sending WeChat or something when he has something, and it used to be text messages.
Zhou Heng replied to him politely, he happened to go to town today, so he brought some by the way, don't take it to heart. I made an appointment to have time to eat together next time.
He also replied to text messages, and he didn't know if the current package was charged.
Looking back on the past, I always recharged how much phone bill to send and sent hundreds of text messages, which felt quite cost-effective, but now the SMS business has been almost eliminated, and it is a little uncomfortable to use.
Because of this text message reminder, Zhou Heng told his parents about the current situation of Hu Jinhua's family, and the family couldn't help but sigh for a while.
Sometimes, the poor are more sympathetic to the poor.
When he was enjoying the shade in the yard at night, Boss Jiang contacted Zhou Heng again and determined the date of coming over and coming the day after tomorrow.
Zhou Heng told him about the taste of the stewed chicken, which made him want to come over and taste it even more.
He said that Zhou Heng didn't have to pick him up, he just took a taxi when he got out of the airport, and he didn't have to go to their city to pick him up.
Zhou Heng's city is only a county-level city, and from their home to the provincial capital, they have to change cars several times.
It is convenient to take a taxi directly, but it is very expensive, however, it is estimated that the big boss does not care.
After being polite a few more times, Boss Jiang repeatedly said that he didn't need to answer, and Zhou Heng gave up.
If he comes the day after tomorrow, he will have time tomorrow, just in time to go to the mountains and accomplish his feat.
The matter is serious, Zhou Heng hid it from his parents, did not tell the truth, only said that he was going to the mountains to go around and have fun.
Early the next morning, he brought a few things, put them in a basket and carried them on his back, took the big yellow dog, and prepared to set off.
The big yellow dog wagged his tail and followed happily.
