At the end of a potholed country road is a village at the foot of a hill, large and small.

It is said to be big because the village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and at a glance it is undulating, as if it is about to extend to the end of the sky, accompanied by the rainbow that first appears after the rain.

As for the very small, it is indeed very small, full of dozens of households, a three-story small building on stilts, and fireworks rise in the world among the green mountains and beautiful waters.

This is a village that has not even been marked on the map, it is very remote and desolate, Sisi stared at it with wide eyes, shiny, and couldn't help but turn his head and ask, "Dad, what are we doing here?"

Li Xuan smiled.

"Farming. ”

Yes?

Sisi couldn't help but be stunned.

Gu Xiaoai was also stunned for a moment, and she didn't quite understand what Li Xuan meant.

Li Xuan waved his hand, did not answer the doubts of the two, walked into the village, turned around and smiled: "Keep up." ”

On the stone table in front of the small shop at the entrance of the village, there are two old people playing chess, there is no crane hair and childish face, on the contrary, the face is full of traces of time, the wrinkles are very deep, the old people are dotted with spots, carrying a large cigarette pouch, the smoke is flying like a horse, there is a quiet and tranquil atmosphere.

At the feet of the old man lay a yellow dog, which was the native dog of the countryside, the famous Chinese pastoral dog, with its fluffy tail gently patting the ground and its eyes slightly narrowed.

Suddenly, its ears stood up, its whole body was excited, and its eyes looked towards this side like lightning, like a lion that had been broken into its territory, docile and wild, showing its sharp white teeth, barking wildly.

Li Xuan smiled faintly and walked over.

Woohoo woo woo ......

Seeing Li Xuan approaching step by step, sensing some aura that made it extremely frightened, its eyes shrank suddenly, making a sound like its tail being caught by a door, its body crawled down, and its tail shook into a big windmill.

The two old men also turned their heads to look.

Li Xuan chatted with them.

The old man has a strong accent, but he can barely understand it, they say that the young people in the village have gone out to work, and there are fewer and fewer young children, and there are fewer and fewer old and young people left.

The revival of the aura outside, they naturally don't know, the cultivation of blue silver grass is far from being popularized here, it is the most primitive small village.

Li Xuan also nodded silently.

According to the statistics I have seen before, 90,000 natural villages disappear in China every year, which is a very staggering number.

After all, there are only 2.7 million in the country.

Talking......

There was a man with gray hair and a strong body, walking down the mountain road next to him, his whole body wet from the rain, but his face was full of smiles.

In his hand, he carried a javelin made of soil law, the body of the gun was shiny, the head of the gun was cold and sharp, and in the other hand, he was carrying a hare, a pheasant, and a plastic bag of chicken fir fungus and other mountain treasures.

When he saw three strangers, they were from the city, he came quickly.

"The boss of Shanzhen?"

Probably because he had done a lot of this kind of thing, he shouted, put down the things in his hand, and took the lead in handing Li Xuan a crumpled cigarette.

Li Xuan shook his head with a smile, signaled not to smoke, and asked, "Is there any abandoned ripe land in the village?" ”

What?

The man was stunned.

looked Li Xuan up and down, his clothes were clean and tidy, his face was white and clean, he had a decent job at a glance, and he was either a teacher or an official.

Crazy about gains?

Running here to farm?

It took a while to come back to his senses, and he was surprised: "Yes, yes, how much money do you give?"

The so-called simple folk customs are mostly simple to their own people, and when this family kills a pig, the neighbors can share a piece of meat, why? Because it will be used in the future.

With outsiders, that is, the poor mountains and bad waters are out of the people.

"You make an offer?"

Li Xuan is still the same light and breezy appearance.

"I ...... My family has a field with a six-cent plot, and if you want to contract, three thousand a year?"

The man was holding on to his heart, his eyes narrowed slightly, no wonder the magpie barked this morning, it turned out that he was here, and he deserved to make his fortune.

"Yes. ”

Li Xuan nodded, didn't say anything, in the eyes of the villagers, this figure may be all the income of a year facing the loess with his back to the sky, but the pair of mud-stained shoes that Sisi is wearing now are more than three thousand, and Gu Xiaoai bought them.

……

Next, the man took Li Xuan to look at the ground, and there was a raised place halfway up the mountain.

Standing on the ground, you can see the red flag of the primary school in the village below fluttering in the wind, and more than a dozen children playing basketball on the playground, without a basketball hoop, and chalk drawing a circle on the wall.

Gu Xiaoai and Sisi were in a state of confusion throughout the whole process, they didn't know what Li Xuan wanted to do at all, they were both curious and puzzled, sitting on a big rock, the mother and daughter looked at each other in a daze.

After the matter of the land was settled, Li Xuan gave the man money, and watched him leave beautifully, and then walked towards the mother and daughter.

"We're here for half a year. ”

Gu Xiaoai raised her head and looked at a mountain and half an acre of land, with a strange look in her eyes.

"Nongfu Spring is a little field?"

When the two fell in love before, they had fantasized about their future life, the big city was too crowded, too fast, and it made people very irritable, poetry and distance are the ideal life, looking for a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, making it at sunrise and resting at sunset.

Can ...... now

Gu Xiaoai is not unacceptable, but she can't understand it.

Why?

Li Xuan nodded, didn't explain, touched Sisi's little head, and said with a smile: "Does Sisi have an opinion?"

The little girl thought about it, and was a little stunned for a while, her eyes were confused, and the air bangs in front of her forehead were a little messy by the wind.

In the past two months, Sisi has seen a lot of incredible things that have completely subverted her perception of the world.

She had seen a pigsty before and it surprised her.

It turns out that the TV is all deceitful, pigs are not cute at all, but dirty, smelly, sleeping in places where goshawks and mosquitoes fly around, and eating the same things as pig food, is this how the pork I used to eat came from?

How can this be eaten?

Also, potatoes are really delicious, especially fries, but do you know how they grow and will you eat them in the future?

Dig a pit in the field, bury the seeds, and pour a spoonful of dung, and the whole field is stinky, and passers-by walk by quickly.

Thinking of this, Sisi looked up at her father, hesitated, nodded, and couldn't help asking, "Does Dad want to teach Sisi?"

She vaguely understood something.

Although she doesn't know why Dad did this, she believes that Dad must have a reason for doing this.

You are the master,

I worship,

That's the law.

Li Xuan also smiled and nodded.

"Yes, this lesson is called ...... Everything grows. ”
