004 Zaolingou Village

Zaolingou Village, located in the hinterland of Yanshan, is surrounded by several large mountains, and there is only one dirt road, which leads to Nanshan Township through Tieshan Village, a distance of about 6 kilometers. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This section is full of potholes, and you can only barely pass small trucks, and the chassis of the sedan is too low, it must be difficult to drive in, and no one in the village buys a car.

In addition to motorcycles and tricycles, villagers still rely more on walking to catch the market, and they really can't afford to spend more than a dozen yuan for the fare.

As for the county seat, everyone rarely goes, from Yunxian County to the town, there are 18 kilometers of cement road, just this section of the fare costs more than a dozen yuan.

From the town to the township, there are also cement roads, about 12 kilometers, but there is no bus, you can only take a van and a motorcycle, and it costs 15 yuan to the village.

At half past two in the afternoon, after spending thirty yuan in fare, Lin Hao finally returned to the village, haunted by his hometown, the ravine was still beautiful, and the spotless remained unchanged.

I took a big breath of familiar air, and it was still so fresh and sweet, with no car exhaust, no industrial pollution and haze PM2.5.

"It's still good to be home!" Lin Hao sighed with a smile, in the four years he was in college, he went home three times, and the rest of the holidays were part-time to earn living expenses.

A few years have passed, the village is still the same, the road passes through a rice field, not far from the entrance of the village, seven or eight families live here, it is the most lively place.

Lin Hao was carrying a backpack and a suitcase, he was quite excited, his face was full of joy, and he walked towards the entrance of the village with a brisk walk, just in time to meet Da Bolin Zhenhai.

Lin Hao's father and three brothers, Lin Zhenhai, Lin Zhenshan and his father Lin Zhenxiong, have an excellent relationship. He also has four cousins and cousins in his generation, all of whom are married.

"Uncle, are you going to go down to the ground?"

"yes... Ah... Isn't this Xiao Haozi? When did you come back? Why didn't you say a word?"

Lin Zhenhai carried the hoe, looked up, and saw that it was his little nephew Lin Hao, and he was overjoyed. I haven't seen this kid for two years, he's grown stronger, and he looks very energetic.

Lin Zhenhai pulled Lin Hao and walked towards the village, threw the hoe directly on the side of the road, and asked as he walked: "Xiaohao, why didn't you say anything when you came back this time? Do your parents know?"

"No, I want to surprise them, I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time, I miss it! Uncle, are we okay in the village?" Lin Hao replied vaguely.

"It's good! This place where birds don't poop hasn't changed much for decades, and the young children in the village have all gone out to work to make money, leaving only some old and weak women and children. ”

The uncle said and sighed, after his son and daughter got married, they worked in Guangzhou for a long time, and they only came back once a year for the Chinese New Year.

If society wants to develop, someone must build it, and this is the main theme of the times, and we must adapt to it. Delusional resistance to the wheels of historical progress is tantamount to self-destruction.

"Eh~ By the way, has Xiao Hao found a girlfriend?"

"Girlfriend? For the time being... Nope!"

Lin Hao smiled, blushing a little, a young man of his age in the countryside has long been married, other people's children can play soy sauce, and he is still single...

Originally, I thought that the big uncle would despise it first, and then preach and criticize it, but he didn't want to, the big uncle suddenly smiled and slapped his thigh hard, and happily praised:

"It's good if you don't! Your kid is lucky, Uncle will introduce you to a girl another day, and you will be satisfied!"

Sao Nian was stunned, this plot is not quite right, when did our uncle become a matchmaker? and... Package you are satisfied... It feels a bit like pimping, nonsense!

"Uncle, what you said... Who's the girl?"

"Hey~ What are you anxious about, I'll take you tomorrow!"

"No, I'm not in a hurry, I'm not ...... yet"

"It's right if you're not in a hurry, you can rest assured that I'll do something, I'll solve it for you properly, wait to pick up my daughter-in-law, let's just make such a happy decision!"

"But... I haven't seen it yet, so why have you decided?"

"Don't worry, Uncle can still pit you? Do the village flowers of our village know that they graduated from high school, and they are very diligent......

“……”

Sao Nian was speechless, Lin Zhenhai was too capable of tearing, and he didn't listen to arguments at all, he was not an opponent at all. Now there are some old and weak women and children left in the village, dozens of people, can the village flowers be reliable?

Fortunately, the two quickly walked to the entrance of the village, and along the way they greeted several elders and distributed gifts, such as cigarettes, tea and wine, according to their relationship.

The relationship is average, only a pack of cigarettes is given, and there are sugar wine and tea at a better point, although it is not too expensive, so I also express my heart!

The people of Yanshan Town are simple and pay attention to etiquette, most of the villagers are knowledgeable, and the rules of etiquette are very strict, and Lin Hao has to abide by them honestly.

There are more than 20 families in the village, all of whom are more or less related, and those who are closer to Lin Hao's family, at least a dozen of them, all said hello by the way.

The second uncle, the village chief, the second grandfather at the entrance of the village, and the grandparents of the eldest uncle's family, the cousin at the east end of the village, and several cousins at the foot of the mountain in the south.

Seeing him come back, everyone was very happy, and they all pulled Lin Hao to ask for warmth, and they were very caring. Especially the grandparents who haven't seen each other for two years, they cried with joy and kept not letting this little grandson go.

Sao Nian was very helpless, promised to come over at night, and the uncle also persuaded his parents to let his nephew go home first, and he set up a table to entertain Lin Hao tonight.

…………

After going around a circle, I finally finished visiting, and my backpack was more than half empty, so I left my uncle's house and walked down the hillside in the north of the village, ready to go back to my home.

Lin Hao's house is in the northernmost part of the village, close to the foot of the north slope, and the slope is his family's mountain forest. The orchard is halfway up the mountain, with two dilapidated houses next to it, and a small half-acre waterhole for irrigation.

The mountainside is about a mile away from the foot of the mountain, and the mountain road is not particularly difficult to walk, it is relatively gentle, and it leads directly to the small courtyard of Lin Hao's house.

The house is more than ten years old, and it was planned to be rebuilt a few years ago, because Lin Hao went to college, so the plan could only be postponed for the time being, until now.

A row of red brick houses, seven or eight rooms, backed by the northern slope of Zaolin Ditch, sitting north and facing south, with a wall seven feet high.

The hall, bedroom, kitchen and toilet, and an empty pigsty have an area of more than 200 square meters, and the small courtyard in the wall is about half an acre.

Sao Nian pulled his suitcase, trotted, passed through several rice fields, and rushed to the yard. Bang bang, bang, slam the door of the hall hard, but don't speak.

"Who's knocking so loudly, it's overwhelmed..."The old mother, who was taking a nap, was woken up, scolded twice, and opened the door to see a familiar smiling face.

"Xiaohao, why are you back? Come in, you kid is here again, you go home and say it first!"

"Isn't this trying to surprise you!" Lin Hao wiped his sweat and replied with a smile.

"Surprise, surprise fart! Look at you hot, you are covered in stinky sweat, hurry up and boil water to wash yourself!" Lin Mu scolded with a smile.

While talking, the mother and son walked into the hall, threw the salute aside, and started the chat mode. Lin Hao hasn't come back for the past two years, only occasionally calling, and his mother has long been worried in her heart.

Of course, Dad Lin was the same, when he heard the voice talking outside, it seemed to be his son, he got up from the bed and walked into the living room quickly.

"Hey, it's really Xiaohao, why did your kid come back suddenly and help harvest the grain? haha~~"

"Dad, I'm not... I'm missing you!"

Lin Hao suddenly remembered that the rice in the field seemed to be really ripe, and now at the beginning of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, isn't it the time to harvest millet and dig peanuts?

Nima, it seems that it is not the right time to come back!

…………

In the evening, the uncle invited guests to pick up the wind for Lin Hao, and everyone in the Lin family gathered, grandparents, uncles and uncles, and eldest sisters and sisters, a whole two tables of people.

During the dinner, Lin Hao confessed that he had resigned, and was going to go home to run the orchard, grow vegetables, and tell everyone the detailed development plan.

Everyone was stunned, this sudden attack caught them off guard, and it was a pity that the dignified undergraduate college students actually planned to go home to run the orchard.

"No, absolutely not!"

My father and mother immediately objected, saying that they did not want their son to continue to be a farmer;

Lin Hao argues with reason, planting trees can make money, and it is not easy to go to work, intrigue, anger, and scolding, all kinds of grievances are not vomited and unhappy, and people are tear-jerking.

In the end, the grandparents spoke, and the uncle also expressed his support and agreed with Lin Hao's idea, and the parents sighed and nodded reluctantly, no longer objecting.

After listening to Sao Nian's business plan, the uncle asked Lin Hao not to go to the bank for a loan, he borrowed 50,000 yuan to support Lin Hao to develop the orchard, which was not enough.
