Chapter 158: Back to the Old Mansion
Cheng Xi was waiting for Fang Ning outside the community, but he called her and asked her to cross the intersection of the old bus station and come in the direction of Binjiang North Road. She didn't understand a little, but she still passed, and she saw Fang Ning waving at the pontoon bridge from a distance, and there was a car parked next to her.
"Where did you get the car?" Cheng Xi was a little puzzled, as far as she knew, Fang Ning's family had not yet bought a car.
Fang Ning bared his teeth, "I borrowed it from Uncle Hai, how handsome is it!"
"Your uncle's heart is so big. Cheng Xi directly ignored the second half of his sentence, he had known him for so long, and he was already a little immune to his cheekiness.
Fang Ning pulled the car door to let her sit in the passenger seat, and he also entered the cab and fastened his seat belt.
"Do you know how to drive?"
"Definitely, otherwise how would I have driven from the new development zone to Lao Cai? Fang Ning was full of confidence, but he pulled the key and set off.
"Poof!"
Re-launch ......
"Poof!" turned off the fire again.
The atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward.
Cheng Xiwan, "Why don't I go out to the river to blow the wind first, and then call me when you are ready?"
Fang Ning's face darkened, and he started again, and finally succeeded in the car, Uncle Secretly Daohai's car has only been bought for less than two years, and it has already become like this, and at first glance, he is not the master who cares for the maintenance of the car.
"Where are we going?"
"Go to a place that no one else knows about. Fang Ning smiled slightly.
"Hmm. She nodded and said, "Then I'll take a break, and you'll call me when you arrive." ”
"Okay!" Fang Ning concentrated on driving, and after a while, Cheng Xi fell asleep with his head tilted slightly, he didn't sleep very much during this time, and he didn't go out to relax, in fact, his body has also reached a limit, and if he goes down, it is very easy to drag down his body and fall into the root of the disease, now take a rest and enter a deep sleep, which is beneficial to her.
When Cheng Xi woke up again, he was already in another place.
The road is a bit bumpy, bumpy, twisting and turning, like climbing a mountain, but in fact it is really climbing a mountain.
"Are we where you said we are?"
"No, there will be a while, about a few minutes," Fang Ning drove past a farmhouse, and after a few more hills, he could see the chimney of the village chief's house.
So Cheng Xi stopped talking, and looked intently at the backward scenery outside the car window, although everything is silent, but the evergreen trees here are continuous, and there is really a sense of confusion that subverts the season.
"This is my hometown, Fir Village, and I think you should have seen the reason for the name. Fang Ning pointed to the evergreen trees outside, which were lush and green.
"Is this the place where you brought me to relax?" Cheng Xi looked at the village more and more clearly, with green smoke and gurgling streams, it had a very peaceful atmosphere of a small village, but there was still nothing surprising about it.
"You'll find out later. Fang Ning smiled slightly, drove the car directly, drove halfway up the mountain to his ancestral house, and then stopped on the side of the road, and the two walked forward on foot.
An exquisite mountain villa appeared in front of Cheng Xi, the wood door was half-hidden, black bricks and white tiles, horse-head walls, blue color, outside the door was a fence made of bamboo, a pavilion covered with straw, a pool of clear water, a white dog lazily lying on his stomach, and a child bathing on the bluestone steps, it was very beautiful here, Cheng Xi thought, if it came in autumn, maybe it would be different and chic.
"This is where we lived when we were kids, I'll introduce you to it. Fang Ning proudly introduced every roof tile in the manor, from the pavilion and pond to the small bamboo baskets, which made Cheng Xi feel more and more novel.
The two of them, Da Mao and Xiao Mao, were taking a bath, and when they saw Fang Ning, they shouted into the house, "Mom, Dad, Brother Fang Ning is back!"
"Haha, two little ones who are not shy. Fang Ning called the two of them with a smile.
Young Master Fang Quanfang came out of the hall, and when he saw Fang Ning coming back, a smile appeared on his face, and his eyes fell on Cheng Xi again, he was a little surprised, thinking about why Fang Ning had brought a little girl back, and the smile on his face was even kinder, "Fang Ning, is this your friend?" Come in and sit, it's cold outside, don't freeze." ”
The little grandmother probed in the kitchen and retracted again, presumably to wash her hands.
Fang Ning took Cheng Xi into the master's house.
His house had long since been emptied, and even the door was locked tightly, without a single gap.
"Master, have you eaten?"
"Not yet, your little grandmother is stir-frying. "The master boiled a pot of water and made tea for them.
Cheng Xi secretly looked at the things in the house and the people here, they were Fang Ning's relatives, so it was equivalent to meeting her parents, which made her calm heart slightly touched.
Fang Ning obviously also saw Cheng Xi's small movements, but he didn't say anything, and said in a low voice, "My little grandmother's craftsmanship is still good, but it's a pity that Aunt Lan is not here, otherwise we can taste better craftsmanship." ”
Cheng Ying's soft lips moved slightly, "But why isn't she here?"
Fang Ning was a little helpless, "Because we are all gone, no one hires her, my grandfather is a policeman, he has no time to run the store, and his grandmother is illiterate and can't read accounts, so it has become what it is now...... Fortunately, Master Zhuangzi and they are still relatively careful to maintain it, and it is not dilapidated. ”
"That's pretty good. Cheng Xi felt the same way.
After drinking the tea, the little grandmother also finished the meal, three dishes and one soup, very simple and light, very clear porridge and side dishes.
"Countrymen, the food is not cooked well, and some may not be used to eating. The little grandmother said with some restraint that she was the traditional kind of woman in the countryside, and she had the endurance to endure against the odds in her bones.
"Try it!" Fang Ning took the lead in taking a bite of tofu, the taste was just right, and the taste was light.
Cheng Xi also ate a piece of tofu, "It tastes delicious." ”
This meal was eaten for half an hour, mainly because the master asked Fang Ning some things, and Cheng Xi ate slowly, enjoying the family-like warm scene.
"Master, it shouldn't be long, and grandpa will call you when the time comes. ”
"That's good. As soon as the stone in the master's heart was put down, he immediately suffered from gains and losses, "What if I can't do it well?"
Fang Ning has a black line, and the master is here again.
After eating lunch and resting a little, Fang Ning took Cheng Xi to run all over the mountains, and there were also winter scenery in winter, and there were faint yellow flowers hidden in the dry vines, some unexpected surprises.
"This willow tree was planted by my dad when he was a child, and now it has grown into a towering tree, when we were children, a bunch of playmates would weave willow branches into swing rattans, and then play in front of them, you can play for a summer vacation!" Fang Ning patted the weeping willows by the well, the leaves had fallen off, but the branches were still there, and we could get a glimpse of what kind of lush and towering scene it should be in summer.
"It seems that your childhood is colorful, I really envy!" Cheng Xi thought that he lived in the countryside with his grandmother when he was a child, with only his sister and no one else by his side, only a boring childhood.
