224. Chapter 224 Countryside Meteor II
Talking and laughing along the way, I soon returned to Li Xiaolu's rural hometown, Li Xiaolu's rural hometown is a remote mountain village in an ethnic minority area of Changshu, surrounded by high mountains, picturesque scenery all year round, and the reproduction of nature has created a kind of original ecological beauty.
As soon as I return to my home in the countryside, there is a world of difference from the city, the houses in the city are tall and neat, and there are high-rise buildings everywhere, while the houses in the countryside can only be some low old houses, and the buildings that see the best are only two or three floors, and the decoration is not beautiful, just some low-cost tiles, some are not even decorated or directly painted with lime.
There are not many families in the countryside that have become rich, and they can be counted on the fingers of one hand, most of them are two-story buildings or those that have been built and have no money to repair them, and Li Xiaolu's family is still an old house, a dilapidated tiled house.
The gifts I bought, candy, biscuits, fruits, etc., were sent to the relatives of the cousins, sisters-in-law, aunts and aunts in the village, and after the gifts were distributed, they went home to do hygiene, their old house she and her mother did not come back to live for a long time, the dust and so on were stained, and they did it all afternoon, He Zhixing wanted to help his "mother" Li Xiaolu to do hygiene, he himself had a super physique that was many times stronger than an adult, but he didn't dare to show it, after all, in Li Xiaolu's eyes, he was just a "three-year-old" child.
After cleaning up until three or four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Xiaolu took her baby "son" He Zhixing to the stool at the side door of the group hall in the village to cool off, and found that there was an old man who was also there, and Li Xiaolu had to call her uncle according to her generation.
Li Xiaolu took her son to sit down on the stool and greeted the uncle, the grandmother agreed to her "eh", and carefully looked at Li Xiaolu's beauty with her old dizzy eyes: "Ah, you are the daughter of Li Guotao's family, right?" ”
Li Xiaolu's father is called Li Guotao, and when her uncle asked her, she immediately agreed: "Yes, uncle, your old man is still very strong and in good spirits."
The old man said: "Alas, the health is getting worse and worse, and the back is hunched, or you young people are so good, is this your youngest son?" Looks so cute."
"Yes, uncle"
chatting with this uncle, after a while, another cousin's wife came out, only to see her holding a dustpan and carrying a basket of red peppers to the pavilion, first said hello to the grandmother, and then she saw Li Xiaolu, and greeted Li Xiaolu: "Oh, Xiaolu is also there, people who come back from the city are different, they are becoming more and more beautiful, and they look very iconic and water like flowers, which makes people feel bright when they see it."
Li Xiaolu said: "Sister-in-law said that I laughed, how can I be as good as you say Wow, I am also a native girl in the village, I can't say that I am beautiful."
The sister-in-law sat down next to Li Xiaolu, put down the red pepper in the frame, then held the dustpan, took out the ring knife from the frame, and said while cutting the red pepper: "Xiaolu, you are too modest, if you are not beautiful, then we rural women are not more yellow-faced than yellow-faced women, and we are about to become black-faced women...... hehe"
"Sister-in-law said that she laughed, in fact, my sister-in-law is also very young and beautiful, by the way, sister-in-law, do you cut red peppers to dry them to make chili powder?" ”
Li Xiaolu used to make chili powder when she was at home, it was dried and beaten into powder, almost every household in the countryside had to do it, and when the powder was made, it was pressed into powder with the old-fashioned big stone tripod and big wooden stick, radium and radium hammer, and they sometimes used this kind of stone tripod stick and radium to poke and make glutinous rice cake to eat during the New Year's Festival.
The sister-in-law said: "Yes, I can't imagine that Xiaolu still remembers the traditional farm work in her hometown, it's really rare, by the way, the child in your arms is yours, it's so handsome!" So cute! ”
Li Xiaolu gently touched the hair of the child in her arms, smiled and said, "Well, it's okay."
