Chapter 220: The Taste of Home
The people who had breakfast at the Zhiqing Hotel hurried to the Gannan City Bus Station, just in time to catch the first bus to Hekang.
In the middle of summer in southern Gansu, the sun in the morning was already very scorching, and the temperature rose quickly, Li Liang chose a seat by the window, opened the window, and the cool breeze blew on his face, blowing away the heat on his body.
This time, the family set out from Hekang and went all the way to the south, seeing the southernmost scenery of the mainland of the motherland. Yangcheng and Pengcheng, the two super first-tier cities in later generations, are now flourishing.
Li Liang gained a lot from this trip, not only saw the customs and development of Yangcheng and Pengcheng, but most importantly, he unintentionally planted willows, and persuaded Mr. Yang to invest 500,000 Hong Kong dollars in the kiwifruit industry in Hekang County.
Unlike everyone who continued to pass on photos of playing in Pengcheng in the car, Li Liang closed his eyes slightly, in fact, he was thinking about what way to persuade the local government of Hekang County to promote the development of the kiwifruit industry.
Li Liang already had a rough outline in his mind, and after he was going to return to Hekang County, he would go to find Long Shaoyun's father, Long Yemin, the current high-ranking county official in Hekang County, and Long Shaoyun's brother-in-law, Wei Yucai, a high-ranking party official who had lived in the township for a long time.
It would be good if he could persuade Long Yemin to concentrate on Li Liang in the county to develop the kiwifruit industry, but if not, Li Liang was ready to persuade Long Shaoyun's uncle, Wei Yucai, a senior party official who had lived in the township earlier. Zaozhu Township and Yutian Town and Bishui Township to the west of Zaozhu Township are hilly and mountainous areas, which have a good innate advantage in planting kiwifruit. What's more, Li Liang's second uncle Li Shuangyang contracted the back mountain of the village, which is in Zaozhu Township.
Closing his eyes and recuperating, in the swaying of the bus all the way, Li Liang and his party finally returned to their hometown of Hekang County.
A manpower two-wheeled cart was hired at the bus station in Hekang County, and the old man Li Chengxi, Li Hao, and Li Yin's brothers and sisters were settled on the cart, and Li Liang's family and the master who pulled the cart slowly returned home together.
Li Liang's family has not officially moved to a new house, and is still living in the old courtyard.
At the mouth of the alley, Li Liang met his nemesis Wang Chao, who was dressed in a short dress at this time, wearing a blue shorts on the lower body, a short-sleeved shirt on the upper body, his feet in slippers were covered with mud, and he was holding five or six huge lotus canopies in his hands.
"Uncle and aunt, hello!" Wang Chao greeted Li Liang's parents very obediently.
"Wang Chao, what are you doing here?" asked Li Liang.
"Well, I'll give you two. I just went to pick lotus pods in the wild pond on the other side of Liu Xinhua's house! You see, I picked these lotuses. Wang Chao generously picked the two largest lotus pods from his hands and handed them to Li Liang.
Li Liang was not polite to him, took the two lotus canopies, and handed them to Li Hao and Li Yin in the car.
"Haohao, Yinyin, this is the lotus pod picked by your brother Wang Chao!" Li Liang said.
"Thank you, Brother Wang Chao!" In front of outsiders, Li Hao and Li Yin behaved very well-behaved!
This kind of food is not unusual for Li Hao and Li Yin, who grew up in the countryside, and the two of them broke two grains, and the rest of the lotus pod was handed to grandpa and sister Li Meng and others.
Li Meng likes to eat lotus pods very much, and during the summer vacation, every time he went back to his grandfather's house in the countryside, Li Meng would ask his uncle Li Shuangyuan or his younger brother Li Liang to go to the wild pond or the lotus root field planted by someone else's house to pick the lotus pod and come back to eat.
She dialed one and put it in her mouth, it was very tender, and the core in the middle of the lotus seed was tender and tender, not bitter at all.
"Wang Chao, go back and wash your feet, come to play at home later!" Li Liang said.
"Great!"
When I got home, the house was quite deserted, and there was no little black dog Kuroko in the yard.
On the day he went out, Li Liang took the sunspot to Chenchen's house and asked Chenchen to help take care of the sunspot for a few days.
After putting things at home, Wang Xiulan went out to buy vegetables, Li Shuangzhu went to the kitchen to boil water, Li Meng turned on the TV in the living room, and beckoned his grandfather and cousins to blow the electric fan in the living room to watch TV.
Li Liang took a bag of candy bought from Pengcheng and went to Chenchen's house.
"Chenchen, are you at home?" Li Liang pushed open the courtyard door of Chenchen's house, and before Chenchen could respond, the puppy Heizi was panting in a corner of Zhang's yard, and excitedly waved his two front paws to greet the little master, and it was chained to the corner of the yard by the Zhang family.
"Ryoko, are you back?" Chenchen walked out of the house, still yawning in his mouth, and there were still marks of straw mats on his face and arms, apparently taking a nap.
"Chenchen, what do you think this is?" Li Liang said to the sleepy-eyed Chenchen with the candy in his hand.
"Chocolate candy?" asked Chenchen in surprise.
"Hmm!"
Li Liang also learned that Chenchen likes to eat chocolate candy very much after he married Chenchen in later life. So this time in Pengcheng, when he came back, Li Liang deliberately found two supply and marketing cooperatives and bought chocolate candies that were not sold in Hekang County.
It is said that these candies were imported from the port city, and they can only be bought at the supply and marketing cooperatives in Pengcheng, and there is no place to sell them anywhere else.
"It's so sweet!Liangzi, where have you been this time? Is it your uncle's school?" asked Chenchen.
"Yes, we went to Yangcheng from my uncle's school, and we also went to Pengcheng!" Li Liang said.
"Is it fun there?" Chenchen didn't have any concept of Yangcheng and Pengcheng in his mind.
"It's okay, we're going to the beach to play!" Li Liang said.
"The beach?" Chenchen's accent was obviously envious, "I don't know when I can go to the beach once!"
In his last life, Chenchen went to the beach for the first time after graduating from secondary school, and after participating in work with Liangzi, he went to Pengcheng to play, and was received by Li Liang's uncle Li Shuangcheng at that time.
"Wait for next summer, I'll take you there!" Li Liang looked at Chenchen's delicate face, and as soon as he was excited, he made this promise.
"A word?"
"It's a deal!"
"Ryoko, thank you!"
"It's nothing, as long as you're happy!"
She was the only one at home in the afternoon, her younger brother Zhang Junjie didn't know where to play, and the rest of the family went to work.
Li Liang stayed at Chenchen's house for a while, chatted with Chenchen for a while, and then returned to his home.
Li Liang's grandfather, Li Hao, and Li Yin stayed at home for one night, and early the next morning, under the escort of Li Liang, they got on the shuttle bus back to their morning stay.
Now is the time when the farm is busy, Li Chengxi and the others have to rush back to help the family harvest rice.
"Grandpa, be careful and safe on the road, I will be back in two days!" Li Liang said.
"Okay, you should also be safe when you come over. Let your parents and sister work hard, they have been out for so many days this time, and there must be a lot of things going on in the unit. After we finish the farm work at home, let your parents and sister not rush back!" Grandpa Li Chengxi advised.
Li Chengxi knew that his eldest son and daughter-in-law would go back to the factory to be busy with the things in the factory, and he would definitely take time to go home to help his second son Li Shuangyang's family do farm work, so he told Li Liang.
