Ren Feng originally planned to come back on the same day, but after making sure that Fang Xiao was going to come over, he stayed in the provincial capital for two more days, so that she had enough time to prepare, explain the affairs of the school clearly, and prepare enough luggage and items.

In the past two days, I happened to communicate and learn more with Professor Shen, and by the way, I first learned about the personality characteristics and professional expertise of several of Professor Shen's old colleagues, and after Professor Shen contacted them and negotiated, he went out to the door-to-door appointment.

Ren Feng went to Jiangnan Agricultural University alone, but when he came back, he brought a local girl, and the people who saw it talked about it.

Many people asked in person: "Hey, Ah Feng, are you back with your girlfriend?" ”

Ren Feng hurriedly explained: "No, it's an agricultural expert invited by the provincial capital!" Teacher Fang! ”

However, Fang Xiao was not prepared for this, his face was red all the way, and his expression was shy, which made people guess in this direction even more.

Ren Feng is also a celebrity in the local area, according to local customs, he should have brought his girlfriend back a long time ago, but for various reasons, he has not talked about his girlfriend, so his parents are also under a lot of pressure, and the people in the village have long been talking about it.

Now like this, some people are naturally happy for him, and there are a very small number of people who don't look down on others and have an attitude of watching jokes, and he laughs it off.

Fang Xiao asked him secretly: "You are very popular in the village, aren't you?" ”

"Not really, in fact, I rarely deal with the villagers, but I am the first college student in the village, and everyone has greater expectations and is more polite to me!" Ren Feng explained.

Fang Xiao thought about it, and it seemed that he was like this in his hometown: "It's similar to my situation!" ”

When she arrived at home, she was the happiest to be Ren Feng's mother, it was the first time she saw her son bring a girl back, her heart blossomed, and her eyes were a little straight when she looked at Fang Xiao.

Ren Feng looked at it and thought to himself, it's bad, her old man also thinks crookedly, and blames herself for not telling her what she wants to do before leaving. Hurriedly said to her: "This is the expert I invited to guide the production, Mr. Fang!" He introduced Fang Xiao again: "My mother! ”

Fang Xiao greeted very obediently: "Hello, auntie! Just call me Xiaofang! ”

"Good! Good! Ren Feng's mother hasn't turned a corner yet: "Xiaofang, how old is this year?" Where are the people? ……”

This posture is to check the household registration! Ren Feng's heart was about to collapse, didn't this embarrass Fang Xiao, and hurriedly interrupted his mother: "Mom! Xiao Fang has just been sitting in the car for such a long time, and he is tired! I'll take her to Wenwen's room to rest first! ”

"Hey, I'm old and confused, I'll give you a bowl of noodles to eat first!" After the mother finished speaking, she went to the kitchen to work.

Ren Feng looked at his mother's back quite helplessly, and gave Fang Xiao an apologetic expression.

Fang Xiao just smiled.

Ren Feng led Fang Xiao to Wenwen's room, helped her put her luggage, introduced the situation of the room, and finally said: "I'm really sorry, the family has this condition, so I have to wronged you first!" ”

Fang Xiao said: "It's okay, it's about the same as our family." Your sister is also very nice about the layout of the room, I like it! ”

Ren Feng was relieved when he heard this: "That's good!" If Wenwen comes back, she will definitely be able to talk to you! You pack up, I'll go out first! ”

He hurriedly ran to the kitchen, helped light the fire, and explained to his mother in a low voice: "Mom, Xiao Fang is an expert and is here to help, not my girlfriend, don't embarrass others like you did just now!" ”

"The girl is very nice! It doesn't matter if it's not a girlfriend now, it's all coming with you, and it's your girlfriend if you work harder! Mother was unimpressed.

Ren Feng didn't expect his mother to have this kind of thought, and he didn't know if Fang Xiao had a boyfriend, if he did, wouldn't it be embarrassing? Besides, he didn't have this idea about Fang Xiao, at least he hadn't thought about it yet. After thinking about it, he decided to lie first: "Everyone has a boyfriend, and they are all ready to get married soon!" ”

The mother was also stunned when she heard this, and she stopped frying poached eggs, and she didn't know what to think.

Ren Feng hurriedly reminded: "The egg is almost paste, turn it over!" ”

The mother hurriedly continued to fry eggs, complaining: "You kid, don't say it earlier, make me happy in vain!" ”

"Didn't I tell you, I didn't expect her to come first, and I have to ask a lot of people to help!" Ren Feng explained: "Don't treat her badly just because she's not my girlfriend, Xiao Fang is a big expert and can help us a lot!" ”

"Don't worry, your mother is not such a snob! It's not easy for a girl's family to come all the way, I have a sense of proportion! The mother said: "Why do you say that this little party is just like the baby in our village, and if you don't speak, you may think that it is someone's daughter nearby." ”

Ren Feng smiled and said: "People also grew up in the countryside, just like Wenwen is also a college student outside, and she will also be an expert in the future, which is different from the people in the village?" ”

The mother also smiled: "Yes, it's just that the people in the city I saw before were not like this." By the way, you let Xiao Fang live in Wenwen's room, did you call Wenwen? ”

"I've called Wenwen a long time ago, and she has no opinion!" Ren Feng replied.

The mother nodded, and sighed a little: "It's just that the new house hasn't been built yet, otherwise it wouldn't be like this!" ”

"Don't worry, Mom! I thought about it, this time I will build a dormitory building first, several floors, which can accommodate many people, and there is no need to rush to build a house at home! Ren Feng replied.

My mother didn't have anything to say for a while, and I didn't know if she was still thinking about other things.

After the noodles were cooked, they were served in a bowl and brought to the table, and Ren Feng knocked on the door and asked Fang Xiao to come out and eat.

"Ah, eat noodles now? I'm not hungry, didn't we just eat in the county? Fang Xiao asked in surprise.

This is the mother's heart, is the local hospitality expression, Ren Feng was afraid that his mother would be unhappy, and hurriedly told her: "This is our custom here, there are guests here, no matter when they come, they must invite someone to eat first, if they are eating, they will eat whatever they have, and the rest of the time is generally below, faster!" ”

"Your custom is interesting, but I can't eat it!" Fang Xiao said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, you can eat as much as you want, just mean it!" Ren Feng insisted on pulling out such a custom, but he was afraid of touching his mother's heart, but it was not good to eat people.

Fang Xiao reluctantly ate half a bowl of noodles, and saw that Ren Feng's mother on the side was full of flowers.

After eating noodles, Fang Xiao asked Ren Feng to take her to see the farm, wanting to see the construction situation immediately.

Walking on the newly turned paddy fields together, Ren Feng introduced the current situation of the farm to Fang Xiao: "We are surrounded by mountains here, basically there are no large flat land, and the largest flat land is the residential area of our village, which is just a little less sloped.

There is a reservoir on the back side of our back mountain, with an area of about 100 acres in the rainy season, and only seventy or eighty acres in normal times. The sluice gate of the reservoir is a semi-artificial canal, which is expanded and renovated along the stream flowing down the original mountain water, and several cofferdams are built in the middle for the convenience of irrigation, and the canal flows until the Huanglong River joins the river.

Between the village and the canal is a paddy field, about 160 acres, which is a good field with convenient irrigation, fertile land and abundant sunshine.

There are also some paddy fields that are slightly higher than the village terrain, about thirty or forty acres, but the bottom is the loess layer, the soil is very thin, and the irrigation is not very convenient, plus the mountain spring water is very cool, the rice can only be harvested once a year, in fact, it is not suitable for farmland, but the original farmland in the village is indeed too little, so it is barely cultivated as a paddy field, and this kind of place is deserted there in these years.

A few acres of land near the village are the traditional vegetable fields of each family, close to home, and it is very convenient to apply fertilizer and pick vegetables.

The total amount of mountain land reclaimed is about 200 acres. My original nursery accounted for almost half, almost a quarter of the surface area of the mountain bag in the back mountain, and this time I contracted the remaining quarter that had been reclaimed, about a quarter of the top of the mountain bag that had not been reclaimed, and another quarter was the ancestral cemetery in the village.

According to our plan, a large water tower was built on the top of the mountain, and other places were leveled to build farms, divided into three areas, respectively, to raise pigs, chickens and rabbits.

The nursery is basically unchanged, and the rest of the hillside is planted with sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other crops, and some of them enter the market, mainly as feed raw materials.

The part close to the village is built to grow vegetables, on the one hand, to ensure the supply of vegetables to each family in the village, and more to enter the market.

The original high-quality paddy fields have reduced the artificial boundaries of the fields, and are still mainly planted with rice, which can grow two crops of rice and one season of rapeseed a year.

Some of the paddy fields near the canal are on the old stream route, and there is not much difference in height with the canal, and the flood often overflows during the rainy season, so the canal is heightened and reinforced, and the silt is dug up to transform into lotus ponds and fish ponds.

The original cofferdam of the canal was basically blocked, and it could only raise the water level, but there was no way to store water. ”

Follow a newly widened road all the way to the top of the back mountain pack, and the entire farm level can be seen unobstructed.

Ren Feng's father is directing an excavator here to level this mountain bag. During this time, he was the busiest, first repaired this road, or the loess roadbed, has not poured cement, and now he is leveling this land to build a farm. From time to time, I have to go to the people who dig fish ponds and cultivate paddy fields at the bottom of the mountain, and I can't wait for one person to become several people. However, he enjoyed it, such a big stroke was planned by his son, and he was proud of being a father, and it was more face-saving to direct others to do things than to be a deputy worker on a construction site and listen to others' shouts!

"Dad, I'm back!" Ren Fengchong greeted his busy father.

The father turned his head, and his somewhat hoarse voice revealed exhaustion: "It's good to come back, I'm busy to death!" You're a stinky boy and you're going to be happy! Although there was some complaint in his words, his tone was obviously excited.

Seeing Fang Xiao standing next to Ren Feng, he was also stunned and asked, "Who is this?" ”

"Oh, this is the expert I invited to the provincial capital this time, Fang Gong!" Ren Feng hurriedly introduced, but he couldn't let his father misunderstand again.

Fang Xiao also hurriedly greeted: "Hello Uncle Ren!" ”

"Oops, hello hello! Expert Fang, you have done my family Feng'er a great favor here! I'm so relieved! "Father was very happy.

"Just call me Xiaofang!" Fang Xiao said modestly: "I don't understand the things of architecture, and I will learn from Uncle Ren in the future!" ”

"Yes, Dad, Xiao Fang is an agricultural expert, you are still good at how to do these civil construction work, and Xiao Fang has the final say on what it looks like!" Ren Feng also said.

"Oh, it looks like I'm not idle yet!" My father said that he said this in his mouth, but his heart blossomed with joy.
