Jixing took them to walk in his own house, his parents were not at home, his mother might have gone to his grandmother's house, and his father went to work.

Jixing told them to sit down first, and the four boys said okay, and after seeing the time, it was already half past eleven, and went to the kitchen to see that there were a few dishes there, and a piece of pork in the bowl.

Xiao Ming followed over and helped him cook on the fire, and the three boys looked at his house, three red brick houses, with simple furnishings.

There is a square wooden table for eating in the hall, and there are oil paintings of Zhu De and others, one of China's top ten marshals, as well as Chairman Mao's, as well as this year's wall calendar, with a big red blessing character pasted on the wall.

The ground is very clean, the yard outside is also clean, there are no chickens and other domestic animals, and freshly washed clothes are dried on bamboo poles.

After reading it, the three boys stood up and also went to the kitchen, and saw that they were busy cooking, and saw that there was a lot of dry firewood piled up in the kitchen, Xiao Ming was adding firewood to make a fire, and Ji Xing was washing vegetables.

The three boys hurriedly asked Ji Xing, do you want to help? Ji Xing asked them to cut out the pork, and Tianhong immediately said yes.

At this time, the sound of motorcycles sounded outside, Ji Xing hurried out, it was his father who came back, and Ji Xing called him with a smile.

Dad Yu parked the car, walked over, and said with a smile, "Jixing, you're back." Your mom went to grandma's house. Are you cooking?"

Jixing smiled and said My classmates are here, cooking in the kitchen, and Yu's father hurriedly said Why don't you call back and ask your mother to cook the rice first.

Saying that, when they entered the kitchen, Jixing immediately introduced them to his father, and the four boys quickly called their uncle with a smile.

Yu's father smiled and said hello, I heard Jixing say that you are coming to live in a dormitory with him, you are good brothers.

I finally saw it today, I usually have to go to work to deliver couriers, and I haven't been to your school, thank you, so take care of Jixing.

The four boys immediately smiled and said yes, Yu's father immediately said, you cook at home, I'll buy some cold dishes and come back, the home is simple, don't dislike it.

These firewood were all brought back from Jixing's grandfather's house, and some of them were brought back by his mother who had time to go to his grandmother's house to help, and asked us to pull them.

After saying hello and riding a motorcycle again, the four boys smiled and said yes, and asked Jixing Does your mother also work at home?

Ji Xing said while washing vegetables that he taught in the village school, so he didn't farm, and my grandfather's family and grandfather's family were farming.

At this time, Qinghai smiled and said, "Xiao Ming, I'll burn it and feel the cooking in the countryside." ”

Xiao Ming smiled and said okay, stood up, taught him how to add firewood, Qinghai said okay, grabbed a handful of corn stalks and put it in, at this time a thick smoke came out, Qinghai was choked, and kept coughing.

Xiao Ming told him to get out of the way, and said with a smile: "It's not like this, you have to put less, use this iron tong to hollow out the middle, let the air circulate, and the fire will be strong." ”

Listening to Xiao Ming's introduction, Qinghai had no choice but to say that burning wood is also so particular, at this time Tianhong asked Xiao Ming to get out of the way and burn it himself.

Xiao Ming said okay and stood up, and at this time Jixing had already steamed the rice in the pot in a wooden barrel.

The army washed the used cutting board and knives, Tianhong sat down, carefully added firewood, it was still burning, and the fire was also very strong, Xiao Ming stood next to him and said with a smile, That's it.

Tianhong looked at the fire in the stove and said with a smile: "Jixing, your family is okay in the village." ”

Jixing smiled and said it should be, my parents both go to work and have a salary, if they don't go out to work and don't do a small business, I'm afraid they won't be able to get any tuition fees just by farming, right?

The three boys immediately said the same, wait for dinner and take us to the village school to see. Ji Xing smiled and said okay.

When the meal was ready, everyone helped to serve it, and the army smiled and said I will stir-fry, and Jixing said okay.

Bring up all the condiments such as oil and salt, paste it with white tiles on the stovetop, wipe it clean, the sky is red and burned for a while, and the fire is not extinguished, and Qinghai wants to burn the fire again.

Tianhong had to tell him to be careful, don't put it out, Qinghai smiled and said okay, began to stir-fry, the army put oil, Qinghai carefully added firewood. The fire is also blazing.

Ji Xing and Xiao Ming wiped the table clean, brought the rice over, washed the dishes, and put them on the table.

Then he went to the kitchen again, and watched the three classmates in the city busy carefully, and the army looked at the big iron pot, and said with a smile that this pot is enough for twenty people to eat, if it is full.

Xiao Ming immediately said that there were only twenty there, and there should be enough for forty people, and the army took the big shovel and stir-fried the meat in the pot vigorously.

At this time, Qinghai put out the fire again, choked him and coughed, Tianhong asked him to get up and burn it himself, Xiao Ming saw it, told him to get up, and he came to burn.

The two of them had to get out of the way, Xiao Ming burned the fire a few times, watching the army stir-fry a little laborious, Ji Xing told him to get out of the way, he came to stir-fry.

The army said yes, Jixing skillfully stir-fried, and the three boys had to stand by and watch, sighing and saying, "You are still powerful, more skilled." It's just that this meal is a bit inconvenient and a lot of dust. ”

Seeing that Qinghai's face was a little dark, several people laughed, and Xiao Ming said while burning: "Rural people are poor, they are not so particular, just be able to cook and eat." ”

The three boys said one after another that the xx countryside is as poor as Africa, most places are it, and some of the cities are still poor.

But the road is okay, at least it's not like it's full of mud here, what you said is true, and it will be good to slowly transform it in the future.

Ji Xing and Xiao Ming said one after another. With the efforts of the two of them, five dishes were finally fried, three vegetables and two meats. The spicy smell came from the kitchen, making people drool, and the five people were already hungry.

The three boys brought the dishes to the table, and at this time, Yu's father also came back, carrying a bag in his hand, and the three boys called their uncle to eat.

Yu's father smiled and said okay, Jixing and Xiao Ming also came over, Yu's father went to the kitchen to get two big white bowls, and poured the cold vegetables and pork ears and beef into the bowls respectively. Laugh and tell them to eat.

They also told him to eat, everyone sat down, and Yu's father immediately asked if he wanted to drink something, and everyone smiled and said no.

The food is very rich, four meat and three vegetarian, Yu's father said with a smile: "It's too late to cook, try it, it's delicious, you don't have to be polite." ”

The four boys smiled and said yes, they all like the spicy taste, and they feel that the taste is really good, and they eat in a big gulp.

Yu's father asked about their respective families while eating, knowing that Tianhong and they were all children in the city, and their parents were working in the city to earn money, and Xiao Ming was a child in the countryside and knew the situation in his family.

After asking, tell them to work hard in college in the future, and if they can graduate and work smoothly, their parents at home will be relieved. Everyone laughed and said yes.

Yu's father asked while eating: "Wait a minute, Jixing, you can take them around, I'll go talk to your mother and ask her to come back, you stay at my house tonight, and your mother and I will go to your grandfather's house." ”

Ji Xing smiled and said okay, the four boys hurriedly said okay, and when everyone was full, there was still half of the food left on the table, and after Yu's father finished eating, he took a break and rode away on a motorcycle.

The five boys helped clean up, Xiao Ming and Dajun went to wash the dishes, and after washing, everyone rested for a while, and Ji Xing locked the door and took them to prepare to go to the village school where he used to study.

Walked three paths, the roadside was overgrown with weeds, fortunately it didn't rain, there was a lot of dust when walking, the three boys looked at it while walking, what were the vegetable seedlings planted in the soil, asked Jixing, Xiao Ming helped answer on the side.

When he met the uncle and aunt on the road, Jixing called them with a smile, and the uncle and aunt also called him with a smile.

When he walked to the village school, Ji Xing said with a smile, and the four boys stood at the door and saw a few rows of red brick houses and a few mud houses.

Standing in front of the big iron gate, it's a holiday, the big iron gate is closed, and there is still a five-star red flag rising inside.

Ji Xing pointed to the red brick house inside and said: "It should have only been repaired for more than two years, when I was studying, it was still a mud house, just the few rooms next to it, and there were a few rows at that time." ”

Looking at the small school inside, there are still table tennis tables and basketball racks on the playground, and no one is playing in it.

Looking at the locked gate, Jixing had no choice but to say, "Let's go, we can't go in, go to my dad's place, the field of the village market." ”

The three boys sighed and said that the schools in the countryside are really much worse, and I hope that they will be improved slowly in the future, and the government should consider it.

Xiao Ming and Ji Xing had no choice but to say, I hope so. Jixing told everyone to leave quickly.

Everyone smiled and said okay, Jixing took them down a big road, took them to find Yu's father, called him with a smile, and Yu's father smiled and said You are here. He's sorting things out.

Looking at the few items piled up in the house, the four boys immediately asked if they wanted to help, Yu's father quickly said no, and asked them to sit while talking, and they said yes.

Watching Yu's father carefully write the name of each item, the four boys looked at him wearing postal overalls and knew that he was a postal courier.

After sitting for a while, Ji Xing took them around the field, looking at dozens of shops selling various things, full of all kinds of goods, daily necessities and biscuits in various packages, as well as tobacco and alcohol, as well as chemical fertilizers used in rural areas.

After looking for a while, Jixing found that there were five stores with public telephones, pointing to the phone and saying that it should have been installed for a short time, and I rarely came back and didn't see it, so it would be more convenient to call later.

Jixing took them into a grocery store, Tianhong and they took the packaged biscuits inside and looked at them, and the boss asked enthusiastically what to buy?

Looking at the clothes they were wearing, they didn't feel like rural people, they looked carefully at the army, and found that it was really a miscellaneous brand, and the purchase price might be much cheaper, and it was still profitable to sell it to rural people.

After looking at it for a while, Tianhong pointed to the bag of instant noodles with xx red written on it, and asked the price, which was two yuan less than what was sold in the city, he smiled and said to buy a pack and go back to taste it, and the boss immediately took a pocket bag and gave it to him.

Jixing bought a pack of xx silk spicy strips, Tianhong gave the money together, and the five of them came out.

Looking at the somewhat deserted streets, Ji Xing said with a smile: "It's only lively when the market is rushed, and there are only a few people in the teahouse." ”

As he spoke, he took them past the teahouse, and watched some old people sitting in it chatting, drinking tea, and playing poker.
