166. Family affection is warm, blue sky and green grass

Xiaoyu returned to her grandmother's house, that is, the demon king of the mixed world, and became the boss. Brothers and sisters have to let her and be at her mercy. Grandparents, uncles and aunts are more like babies to protect, Xiaoyu also experienced the strong family affection that is not in ordinary life, and Shandan's heart is also full of sweet touches, and only at home will she have such a scruple to relax and enjoy, Gu Haiping will also enjoy a rare family happiness in her happiness.

The mutton was almost eaten, and Xiaoyu and a few little sisters were presumptuous enough, and every day they were covered in mud, like refugees who had escaped from the cellar from bandits. Shandan uses a large basin of hot water every day to clean a few muddy little people.

Xiaoyu didn't want to go back to Yongcheng a little. The vast grasslands of the countryside, the blue sky and white clouds, the beauty of the starry sky and the free life are the best for the child's uninhibited nature and growth. Several children gallop in the vast grassland like wild horses every day, and the freedom and openness are so nostalgic.

Shandan also didn't want to leave his home, his parents, or the grassland. The closer he gets to leave home, the sadder he becomes.

The farther and longer I walked, the more homesick I became, and when I was a child, I had to walk all over the mountains and walk thousands of miles, and with the realization of my wishes and the passage of time, it gradually became a homesickness that I could never get rid of.

The day of going home always comes in the hope of thousands of days and nights, and the day at home is a week passed in the blink of an eye, growing up and leaving home is the dream of every child when they do not grow up, and when you really grow up and leave home, you know that the days at home, the days by your parents' side are the happiest and best times in your life.

Every time I go home, the family is full of joy and sorrow, and every time I leave home, the family can't hold back tears and don't know when they will be able to go home next time.

Shandan's heart is tormented by the anticipation and reluctance to return home and leave home every time. She thought that her Xiaoyu must not have the same sadness and longing as her. But she also knows that a qiē seems to be constantly reincarnated, and each generation repeats the path of the previous generation, although the journey is not the same, but it is the same psychological process.

Although there are a thousand and ten thousand unwilling, the day of leaving home has come, and in the midst of all kinds of reluctance, the Shandan family and their parents and relatives are sorry to say goodbye.

The early autumn in Saibei is high and cool, the sun is shining and caressing the faces of every simple, bronzed and honest plateau people, they have a good harvest every year under the protection of God, cattle and sheep are flocked, grain is full, and every face with a faint plateau red is overflowing with smiles.

Life is getting better day by day, and Shandan is also a lot more relieved to his parents. After she studied medicine, her parents' physical conditioning and treatment were carried out by herself, and her father's weak body improved day by day, and the problems of his body gradually disappeared when he came to his old age. This put the family's heart at ease.

My father, who is about to be 70 years old, is stronger than when he was younger, and he can help Tie Dan'er clean the sheepfold, feed the lambs, feed the pigs, and clean the courtyard...... Everything he can do, he rushes to do. Maybe it's to prove that you're not old enough to be a burden to your children.

Shandan said to his parents in private: Do something, I don't object, just treat you as exercising. But remember one thing: do what you can do, that is, what you can do, and don't brace yourself, exhaust your body, or hurt yourself, and if you can't help but make a mess for us, then the gains outweigh the losses. Illness may be something we can't predict and avoid, but it's not good to bump and drag people down, so don't be too competitive in everything, old is old, you have to serve the old, and you can't work hard like young people anymore.

She knows that her mother is strong and unconvinced, and she also understands that her mother feels sorry for her son, and she often has the same amount of labor as Tie Dan'er. Shandan also often told Tie Dan'er to let his mother do less work, after all, age is not forgiving! Tie Dan'er has no choice, he and his daughter-in-law can only do things in front of his mother, so he will have less mother's hard work, so Tie Dan'er and his mother often rush to work secretly, and the two of them are equally tired.

Later, there was no way, so Tie Dan'er had to prevent her mother from working in the field, but when they were working in the field far away, her mother was already working in the nearby field.

I really had no choice, so I had to let my mother just remind her to pay attention to her body every time.

Tie Dan'er's mother has nothing to say about her child's kindness, especially for this lone seedling son, which is the meat on the tip of her heart, and also for Tie Dan'er's failure to go to school and not get out of the yellow earth, suffering from this face facing the loess and turning her back to the sky, her heart is full of self-blame, so with her own strength, she helped Tie Dan'er live a prosperous life, and even the light rain was pulled by Tie Dan'er's mother.

Shandan's departure away from home is also unacceptable to Tiedan's mother's limited thinking, Shandan walked to a place she couldn't see or touch, which made her feel uneasy for many years, looking at Gu Haiping's steadfastness and ability, and now that he has graduated with a doctorate, he is a little more relieved. As for Erlian's family background, it is also an aspect of Tie Dan'er's mother's troubles, but unfortunately she does not have three heads and six arms, and she is always busy with herself, Tie Daner and Erlian are reluctant to let their mother work so hard and hard, so they try to live their lives well and not let their mother worry about it.

Therefore, after the three brothers and sisters grew up under the careful guidance of their mother, they were all very benevolent and righteous, and their lives were getting better day by day.

When Shandan returned to his hometown, Mao Daner drove back to the countryside early to wait, and lived together for a few days. Before coming back, Gu Haiping had already booked a ticket from Baotou to Chengdu to meet a respected Chinese medicine teacher. There are three days to play in Ordos, arranged by Mao Dan'er.

After passing through the riverbank grassland where the grass grows and the warbler flies, passing through the Daqing Mountain of the Yinshan Mountains, the original winding mountain road of Daqing Mountain has become a straight road leading to the foot of Guò Mountain, and a tunnel leading to the mountain is being excavated not far away, it is said that after it is opened, it only takes an hour to return to the riverbank grassland.

Originally, it was a four- or five-hour journey on the steep Daqing Mountain, but it only took two hours to reach Hohhot City in the unhurried and unhurried chatting with Gu Haiping while driving

On the way, the fox, which has been red, walked slowly in the roadbed trench on the side of the highway with its bright tail, and watched Maodan'er's car pass by, and did not panic, but still walked slowly, just looking up at them

Shandan exclaimed, "Look!

Xiaoyu probed out of the car window and shouted: "Dad, look! a red fox!"

"Hehe, now after more than ten years of returning farmland to forests and restricting the amount of livestock, the grassland ecology has recovered a lot, and some wild animals that we only saw when we were children have appeared, and not long ago I heard that steppe wolves have appeared in the riverbank grassland," Mao Daner said with a smile

"That's it, you see the sky is blue now, the grass is green, when we left home in the nineties, when the sandstorm was blowing dark, what is the day?!

"That's the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the government has made great efforts to improve the environment, and we have been the source of sandstorms here has also been severely controlled. Otherwise, the environment would have been so good? But now that the policy is tilted and the awareness of farmers and herdsmen is raised, the life of the grassland people is getting better and better. If you think about it, although there are many sheep in the original, they are not valuable, the grassland is desertified, the environment is getting worse and worse, and people's living standards and environment are really bad. Now it's different: there are not many sheep, but a sheep is the price of two or even three in the past, and it is easy for people not to plant so much land after returning farmland to forest, but their income has not decreased, and various subsidies and subsidies from the state can be in place in time, so that everyone does not need to open up wasteland to farm to increase income. You look at the fever of working in the city all over the country has not affected us, one is our primitive living habits here, no one wants to leave the hometown to suffer, and the other is that our current income is more than working in the city, so everyone works at most half a year a year, and lives comfortably at home" Mao Daner stretched his waist and tightened his grip on the steering wheel.

"Well, yes. When I first arrived at the riverbank grassland, the environment was really shocked, it turned out that we were in the front mountain, and I heard that the riverbank grassland was a paradise on earth, so I longed for it. I don't want to come and find out: what heaven? It's hell. One year when I came to celebrate the New Year, the yellow wind on Chinese New Year's Eve blew so much! I couldn't even put on a strong fire, so I had to put a few artillery fights in a so-so way to pick up the gods and go home. At that time, we decided to go to the south for graduate school and because we were afraid of the climate here. I don't want to recover to this level in just over ten years, I really can't imagine it, I thought it could only be worse, it was impossible to recover, I didn't expect it!" Gu Haiping sighed

"Dad, is more than ten years a short time? You see I'm so old!" Xiao Yu obviously disagreed with his father's statement.

"Hehe, it's not short for you, it's short for the ecological restoration of the grassland" Gu Haiping turned his head and looked at Xiao Yu in the back seat lovingly.
