Chapter 92: Cousin "Wild Dog"
After breakfast, Zhou An first went to the field house in Yuema Township.
Yuema Township and Sanma Township are adjacent to Yinma County, Liugu City, and Tianwu is where Zhou An's mother's maiden home is located, and his two uncles live there.
The aunt married in Pukou Bridge in Yuema Township, which is a little farther away, so Zhou An came to the second uncle's place first, and then went to the aunt's side later.
Tianwu Village is not big, forty or fifty households, almost all of them are surnamed Tian, Zhou An heard his mother say that the ancestors of the whole village of Tianwu are a family, it can be said that every family in Tianwu is a relative, so the hearts of Tianwu are more aligned, unlike Zhoujia Village, people's hearts have long been scattered.
Before entering the village, Zhou An bought four bottles of wine, two cigarettes, a packet of cereal, a bottle of honey, a bag of persimmon cakes, and a large watermelon in the small shop at the entrance of the village.
Tobacco and alcohol, he bought it for his two uncles.
Cereal, honey, and persimmon cakes were bought for my grandmother, and watermelon was bought for everyone to eat.
Zhou An has always had no opinion on his mother's relatives, his grandmother was very good to him when he was a child, and his two uncles were also good to him, the eldest aunt was a little spicy, but his heart was not bad, and the second aunt was even more kind.
Aunts and uncles are not bad either.
Zhou An once wondered why the brothers on his father's side, including his father, had a bad temper, while the brothers and sisters on his mother's side had a good temper?
This question has been bothering him for a long time, and only later did he probably understand that maybe it was because of his father's side, his grandfather and grandmother died early! His father raised two brothers alone, and he was about the same age as he was now taking on the burden of supporting the family, so his temper became worse and worse, and his father's two brothers, because no one disciplined them on weekdays, may have also been influenced by his father, so their tempers were also more impulsive.
And my grandmother is a good-tempered person, my mother said that my grandmother has never blushed with anyone in her life, and she has never heard her scold, probably because of her grandmother's influence, and my mother's brothers and sisters have good tempers.
When was the last time you came to Tanya?
Zhou An can't remember clearly, before he was reborn, his grandmother had passed away a long time ago, and after he was reborn, he came for the first time.
Thinking that he would be able to see his grandmother in a while, the corners of Zhou An's mouth couldn't help but rise, and he felt a little ashamed, because he once said to his ex-wife: "When we have a child, I must take you and the child to see my grandmother and burn more paper money for her!
Gray grandson is the local name for great-grandson.
It's a pity that until his ex-wife divorced him, they didn't have a son and a half daughter, so they never realized that wish.
……
After buying good things, Zhou An rode into the village.
Tianwu Village has beautiful scenery, much more beautiful than Zhoujia Village.
Because Tianwu Village is surrounded by water, the village is in the middle of the lake, this lake is called Yingyue Lake, the lake is not deep, and I don't know when the people of Tianwu Village planted lotus roots in the lake, and then gave birth to two, two and three, and three to one lake.
Since Zhou An remembers, this Yingyue Lake is full of lotus roots, like this season, the lake is full of green lotus leaves and white lotus, of course, there are a lot of lotus flowers.
The lotus leaves and lotus flowers of different heights are swept by the breeze, waving in layers of waves, not to mention how beautiful.
It feels cool to look at.
Tianwu Village is like an island in the middle of a lake, and a 100-meter-long mound connects it to the outside world.
In and out of the village, there is only this road, fortunately, this road, with the efforts of the ancestors of Tianwu Village, is quite spacious, about two lanes wide, anyway, Zhou An rode through it, and there was no need to worry about accidentally riding the car into the lake.
The mound is not high, about a meter higher than the water surface.
The lake is full of lotus roots, and the lake water is also very cool in summer, when Zhou An passed by the earthen ridge, a breeze blew the water vapor in the lake onto him, and he felt as comfortable as entering an air-conditioned room.
Before he officially entered the village, Zhou An saw a group of children of different sizes playing happily in front of the mound.
Bigger...... The child, about fifteen or sixteen years old, only wears a pair of big pants all over his body, shirtless and barefoot, small children, visually five or six years old, there are men and women, of course, women cannot be bare-chested, Zhou An has seen a few wearing skirts.
A group of seven or eight gathered at the edge of the lake, stretching their necks to look into the lotus leaves, and from time to time someone shouted happily.
"What are these guys doing?"
Zhou An muttered with a smile.
The speed of the battery car was fast, Zhou An quickly rode behind these people, and a few curious people looked back at him, and one of the little girls' eyes lit up and shouted: "Zhou An, why are you here?"
Without waiting for Zhou An to respond, she immediately turned back and shouted to the lake: "Brother Dog, Brother Dog, Brother Dog, Zhou An is here, your brother is here!"
The little girl is about eleven or twelve years old, the girl develops early, although the little girl is still an airport, but she is not much shorter than Zhou An, her small appearance is quite sweet, her eyes are bright, and her long hair is waist-high.
Zhou An was stunned, and then remembered her name - Tian Yue, who lived opposite the door of his second uncle's house, every time he came to his grandmother to play when he was a child, this little girl followed him and his cousin, by the way, at that time, she often hung a clear snot, and snorted and inhaled from time to time.
also used to play family together, and she also played his little daughter-in-law.
At that time, he was quite unhappy, thinking she was ugly.
Back then, in his simple aesthetics, she often had snot, and she belonged to the ugly category.
He was still young at the time, what did he know about the eighteen changes of the female university?
When he grew up, when he saw her again, he was already a proper long-legged slender beauty, but at that time he regretted it too late, this girl got married earlier, and Zhou An was still struggling with whether to take advantage of the New Year to greet her uncles and hook her up, and when she really saw her, her belly was big.
Of course, these are all things in the past, Zhou An has been moved, but he has never invested in his feelings, the past is like smoke, it has long since dissipated, when he meets again, when he sees her who has not yet grown up, he has no waves in his heart, and even wants to laugh a little.
After all, his mental age has long been ripe, and she is only eleven or twelve years old now, and her hair has not grown.
"Is it Xiaoyue? My cousin is in the water?"
Zhou An stopped to say hello with a smile, before the words fell, in the lake, a bronze thick arm opened a few lotus stems, revealing a well-defined black face, seeing Zhou An, this person's eyes lit up, grinned, and showed a mouthful of white teeth.
"Xiao An? Hey, why are you here? Come to my house for dinner at noon! You are so blessed, I got a lot of crabs and tender lotus roots today! I'll get you some barns with the net in a while!"
Kurachi is a kind of local small fish, especially in summer, often appear in groups on the surface of the water, thin and long, like green beans.
As he spoke, a long white tender lotus root suddenly floated up on the surface of the water in front of him, at least five or six knots.
When Zhou An saw it, he also grinned.
Because of this trick, he will also, a person standing in the water, with only one foot to dig out the lotus root from the bottom of the water, when the great work is done, the lotus root that should be in the silt will automatically float to the surface of the water because of buoyancy.
It's fun and delicious, no wonder so many children gather here.
This person is his second cousin, the only son of his second uncle, nicknamed Wild Dog, the name Tian Yu, when he was a child, he always liked to grab things from his peers like a wild dog, and was awarded the bandit name of "Wild Dog".
In terms of boldness, Zhou An has never seen a bolder one in his life except for this second cousin.
