Chapter 69: A Trip to the Farm
Meng Fanzhu made breakfast, Lele just returned to the living room after practicing boxing, and when he saw his brother who was serving food out of the kitchen, he asked curiously, "Brother, you are lazy, it is over so early!"
"What are you lazy to steal, you have to relax in martial arts, I feel that I can practice today, so I am not reluctant. You also have to know that you can't rush it, go take a bath!" waved his hand to let his brother go to the bath.
At this time, the father yawned and walked out, followed by the lazy but charming mother. Since taking the myelin cleansing pill, my parents no longer need to sleep for so long, and they get up at 6 o'clock every day, which invisibly prolongs the time of the day.
But although Dad's energy is getting better and better, he is also getting lazier and lazier. Now I am responsible for all the housework, and my father doesn't even need to water the vegetable garden, so although his muscles have strengthened a lot after taking the medicine, his body shape has not changed. I don't know what kind of painful process my father will go through after I go to BJ to go to college at the end of August, from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift! Meng Fanzhu couldn't help but be secretly amused, after so many years of hard work, let my father rest for two months, and it can be regarded as his filial piety.
Today is Saturday, there are no classes at the driving school, I wanted to ask Anya out on a date, considering that she will be leaving home to go to school soon, it is better to set aside more time to spend with her family. Putting aside his thoughts about the girl, Meng Fanzhu brought all the breakfast to the table.
During the meal, Lele asked, "Dad, what are the activities of our family today?"
"Let's have two days of rest this weekend. Dad yawned again.
"Didn't the third child Zhang Luo go to play several times, let the two of us take the children to Hongxinglong Farm to play, Duoduo and Lele have not seen the 10,000 acres of farmland, it is not yet half past 6, they are up early on the farm, you call the third child, let's leave after dinner, we can arrive at noon." Mom's sudden words shattered Dad's dream of staying at home and being lazy.
"Hong Xinglong! More than 400 kilometers, I said daughter-in-law, can we stop and stop, I just went to Baihu City last week, let's rest this week. "When my father heard about Hongxinglong Farm, he almost didn't jump up, and it took 5 hours to drive so far away, which was very challenging for him to become lazier and lazier, and he was busy begging his mother to change her mind.
Songjiang is so cold in winter, I can only go to the south to play during the winter vacation, just take advantage of this summer to have time, take the children around our own dragon province, better than going out later, I don't even know what my hometown is like. Besides, Duoduo is going to college soon, and he has a girlfriend again, how much time do you think he will have to spend with you and me in the future. Lele is the second year of high school in September, and the study is about to start to be nervous, don't walk around now, you won't have time to go out and play in the future, don't ink, go quickly!"
Hearing his mother's words, Meng Fanzhu was also a little embarrassed. Lele flatteringly ran behind his mother and massaged his mother's shoulder, "Mom, brother go to BJ, and me, I'll always be with you." ”
"When you join the army, it's good to come back once a year, and you've been with me, you're not as good as your brother!"
Meng Fanzhu hurriedly sat next to his mother, hugged his mother's arm and coaxed, "Mom, I love you the most!
Meng Fanzhu and Lele cooperated, and finally made my mother smile.
kissed the two sons and took a big mouthful, and the mother gradually calmed down her mentality. In fact, the mother also knew that the child would eventually fly out to fight for her own career when she grew up, but after the incident of Lele wanting to join the army and the fact that Meng Fanzhu had a girlfriend, the mother suddenly found that the two sons who were originally around her and relied on her gradually began to become independent, as if she no longer needed herself. This made her feel a little uncomfortable, even very lost, and she always felt empty in her heart, so the scene just now happened.
In fact, this happens in every family, and the boys' mothers feel it more obviously. Meng Fanzhu understood his mother's mood, and held his mother's arm to talk all the time, Lele was coquettish out of his youngest son's instinct, and he was also tired of being by his mother's side. So when my father finished calling and returned to the restaurant, what I saw was that my mother and the queen mother were smiling with the support of their two sons, and the envious father didn't want it.
Now that they had decided and said hello, the whole family quickly finished breakfast, threw the bowl into the kitchen, and before they had time to brush it, they set off with two boxes of mineral water trucks.
In the car, the brothers sat in the back row to accompany their mother, and Sanbao squatted in the back seat, sticking his little head out of the window and sticking out his tongue, letting the wind blow his tongue and squinting comfortably. The chatter and laughter in the back seat continued, and the corners of my father's mouth turned up, and his mood was also very comfortable. In fact, my dad likes to drive long distances and has a very high level of driving. While driving, you can enjoy the scenery along the way, you can wash away the dust in your heart and relieve stress. When I was young, I once took my mother and the two of them drove to Shijiazhuang to play, creating a record of driving for 16 hours a day and driving more than 1,500 kilometers. At that time, my mother slept in the car and slept again, and at first I was worried about my father's fatigue driving, and wanted to find a place to rest for one night before setting off, but my father was always in good spirits, and it was already more than 9 o'clock in the evening in Shijiazhuang. Now on ordinary business trips in the province, my father will generally choose to drive, not to mention that now I am in a happier mood when I go out with my family.
One hour after departure, my mother and Lele began to feel sleepy, and then they fell asleep, which was a habit inherited from my grandmother. At the rest stop in County B, Meng Fanzhu changed to the co-pilot's seat, so that his mother could sit more comfortably and he could chat with his father. was chatting in a whisper, grandpa called his father, grandpa grandma walked in the morning to see the eldest grandson, opened the door to see, there was no one in the house, so I asked what was going on, I didn't hear that there was a travel plan. Dad smiled bitterly and told me what happened in the morning, and Grandpa was a little angry and had to let Mom answer the phone. The dazed mother didn't know what was going on, so she was counted down by her grandfather. Meng Fanzhu deduced from the few words that came to him that the main thing was that he was not allowed to be willful, he had to be steady, he was almost 50 years old, he wanted to be a one, he was not allowed to bully his father, he wanted to set an example for his two children, and so on. Finally waited for the phone to hang up, my mother threw the phone to the side, and said to my father, "Old Meng, dare to sue me, wait until Hong Xinglong will clean you up!", and continued to sleep, seeing that Dad and Meng Fanzhu couldn't cry or laugh.
The two then talked about Hongxinglong Farm, and my father was very interested, and he came a few years ago. The area of this reclamation area is also among the highest in the entire Long province's agricultural reclamation system. In the late 60s of the last century, according to the needs of the international situation and domestic development, the central government set up the Long Provincial Production and Construction Corps to carry out the task of 'reclamation and garrisoning the border', and 540,000 soldiers rushed to the border areas of Long Province. At present, the leadership team of Hongxinglong is also planning to build red tourism and stimulate the economy of the reclamation area.
The car is driving smoothly on the straight and spacious highway, and the highway construction in Long Province has been good in recent years. Maybe because I started early on the rest day, there were very few cars on the road, and it took a long time to see a car passing in the opposite lane. Surrounded by green crops and villages that appear from time to time, Meng Fanzhu gradually understood why his father enjoyed driving a long-distance car, and he was also intoxicated by the green and vast scenery, as if only he and his family were left chasing the white clouds in the endless wilderness. With the opening of his state of mind, Meng Fanzhu couldn't help but open the acupoints of his whole body, and the qi of heaven and earth poured into his body, and the righteous qi increased his speed slightly, as if every pore was breathing, and he stretched out comfortably.
