Chen Lu took a deep breath and said to Li Wentao: "Didn't you say that Huanshan Village is a poor and remote place, and there is nothing to see, fortunately I was not deceived by you, otherwise where would I find such a good place?"

Li Wentao didn't feel it, he had seen the scene of Huanshan Village for more than ten years, and he had long been used to it, "When you live in it for a few days, you will know if it is a poor country."

Chen Lu was noncommittal, but suddenly remembered something, and shouted: "I left the gift for your parents in the car, and this time I can only come to the door empty-handed."

"What's the big deal" Li Wentao didn't take it to heart, beckoned to Chen Lu and said, "Hurry up and keep up, maybe I can catch lunch, I'm already hungry."

Finally, when the two of them arrived in the village, they also saw the people in the village, and noticed that everyone passing by was looking at them with a strange look, Chen Lu hurriedly followed behind Li Wentao and said in a low voice: "Why are the people in your village looking at me so strangely?" ”

"Look at you! You see, they don't look at me strangely" Sensing that Chen Lu was a little scared, Li Wentao comforted again: "It's okay, you look so beautiful, it's normal for people to look at you twice." ”

At this time, a person came to him, which made Chen Lu's eyes light up, and secretly said that she was a beautiful woman. I saw that this woman was dressed very plainly, and the washed clothes that had faded still couldn't hide the woman's delicate spirit.

"Hey, is this Xiao Tao?"

"Cousin"

The two seemed to be very familiar, but they left Chen Lu aside.

Li Hui looked at him in surprise and said, "Xiao Tao is really you!" It's only been half a year, how can you change so much, my cousin is almost unrecognizable. ”

It's natural. Compared with before, Li Wentao has lost a lot of weight, not to mention, and even a word has grown a little, and Li Hui's impression of him is still stuck on Humpty Dumpty half a year ago, and he can't help but be surprised.

That's all it takes, but there is an extra beautiful girl beside her, and if you think about it carefully, she really doesn't know her, Li Hui couldn't help but wonder and said, "This little girl is ......"

"This is" Without waiting for Li Wentao's introduction, Chen Lu consciously said: "My name is Chen Lu, and I am a friend of Brother Xiaotao." ”

Friend? Still called brother? It's so affectionate!

Li Hui couldn't help but have a little misunderstanding, and quipped: "I don't see it, Xiao Tao usually looks quite wooden, but he is not ambiguous at all." ”

Li Wentao just wanted to explain, but Li Hui didn't give him a chance, and said excitedly: "Hurry up and go home!" Third Uncle will be very happy to see you, I just came out of your house. ”

"Really? My parents are at home, it's great" Usually at this time, my parents are either at home or in the field, very lucky, today is the former, and the excited Li Wentao has already forgotten what to explain.

Homesick, Li Wentao said directly: "Cousin, let's go to my house together!" ”

Li Huiyao looked away and said, "No, I just came out of your house and was about to go home, I'll go again when I have time!" ”

"Okay, then I'll go first"

"Hmm"

After a few simple greetings, Li Wentao rushed home with Chen Lu, and walked to a big iron gate, Chen Lu couldn't help but be surprised: "This is your home?" ”

A large courtyard appeared in front of her, surrounded by earthen walls, and a large iron gate made Chen Lu unable to see the situation inside, and she couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"Wangwang......" Just as the two of them were standing at the door, a fierce dog barking came from the yard.

"Got a dog?" Chen Lu was shocked, a little scared.

Li Wentao said as a matter of course: "Who doesn't have a dog in the countryside, make a fuss, don't be afraid, the dog is tied up with a big iron chain!" Can't bite people. ”

Hearing this, Chen Lu was a little relieved.

"Who's at the door?" A woman's voice came from through the dark door.

As soon as he heard this, Li Wentao was excited, what a familiar voice! He hurriedly shouted: "Mom, it's me!" ”

Li Xiuhua was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly opened the door, and saw that it was indeed her son. Although she lost a lot of weight, she could recognize it at a glance and said, "Xiaotao, why are you back?" ”

"Mom, I'm on summer vacation, so I'm back!" I haven't seen her for four months, but my mother is still the same as she remembers, and she hasn't changed at all.

I haven't seen my son for four months, Li Xiuhua also misses it very much, her eyes are already unconsciously moist, and she hurriedly took her son's hand and welcomed her into the house, forgetting that there was a big living person next to her.

Chen Lu, who originally wanted to say hello, held back a sentence in his stomach, and looked at the mother and son who had completely ignored him, so he could only follow honestly.

"Wangwang......" Seeing a stranger coming in, the big yellow dog barked again and again.

"Don't bark, get out" Seeing that the dog was still barking desperately, Li Xiuhua shouted at the dog.

was shouted by the owner, the big yellow dog finally didn't dare to bark, and honestly hid in the kennel again.

Li Wentao looked at the big yellow dog in wonder, although this dog was not raised by him since he was a child, no matter how he said that he was also a little owner, but he hadn't seen him for four months, and he didn't know himself.

As soon as he entered the house, Li Xiuhua shouted: "Dad, don't look yet, my son is back" and turned around and explained: "Xiaotao, your dad will still take a nap!" I can't sleep and I can't move, come in"

It turned out that Li Xiuhua's words were a bit exaggerated, and just after this voice, Li Baoshan only squinted a little and got up.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw his son standing in front of him, and he was stunned for a moment, and he didn't greet Li Xiuhua as warmly, but said flatly: "Isn't it just that my son is back!" What's all the fuss, I said a long time ago, Xiao Tao will definitely come back in the next few days, this letter! ”

"As long as you can bear it, hurry up, let's make something to eat for Xiao Tao, come so far, Xiao Tao must be hungry" It hurts more than his mother, or Li Xiuhua knows his situation.

Along the way, Li Wentao was already so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back.

Li Baoshan waved his hand and said, "What else to do?" Isn't there a ready-made one? ”

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up. Your son comes all the way over, and you let your son eat leftovers! Li Xiuhua forcibly pulled Li Baoshan to cook.

Watching his parents prepare meals, Li Wentao did not have the slightest sense of helping, although his skills were good, even above his parents, he still liked to eat the meals made by his parents, he knew that even if he went to help, he would be kicked out by his mother.

He sat on the kang with his buttocks, hard on the clay kang, but he didn't feel a trace of discomfort, but felt very comfortable, but Chen Lu was left out in the cold.

Chen Lu was first ignored by the mother and son as soon as he entered the door, and then he was deterred by the big yellow dog, and finally entered the house but was ignored by Li Baoshan, who had just woken up and was a little confused.

This time, no one paid attention to her, Chen Lu naturally felt uncomfortable, anyway, Li Wentao was left in the room, and she sat on the kang unceremoniously.

complained: "Brother Xiaotao, I'm hungry too." ”

Li Wentao said with a smile: "Don't mind, the people in the mountains are more affordable, just wait a little longer." ”

Chen Lu thought for a while and said, "When your parents ask later, you can't say that I came because of you." ”

This girl is quite face-saving!

"Okay, I'll say later that you were invited by me to come here and experience life, it's okay!"

"It's okay" Chen Lu nodded with satisfaction, and the depression in her heart was much less. Regained his active personality and asked, "Your mother is really good to you, but your father doesn't seem to be good to you?" ”

Li Wentao shook his head and said: My dad has that temperament, he doesn't like to talk about everything, I've long been used to it."

"Oh"

The two sat on a kang together, chatting without a word, but they didn't know that this qiē entered the eyes of Li Wentao's parents through the small doors and windows.

While the two were preparing meals, they whispered, and Li Xiuhua naturally couldn't hide what was on her mind, especially about her son.

couldn't help asking: "Dad, what do you say is the relationship between that little girl and Xiao Tao?" The two seem to have a good relationship."

Different from his wife's gossip, Li Baoshan has always disliked talking about this kind of thing, saying: "Any relationship is possible, but it will definitely not be the kind of relationship you think." ”

The two have lived for decades, and he knows what he is thinking when he looks at his wife, Li Baoshan knows his son very well, and Mu Ne's character is definitely not the type that women like.

"Not necessarily, maybe just in case!" Li Xiuhua argued on the basis of reason.

"Think whatever you like! What does it matter if you are still an adult child! Li Baoshan insisted on his point of view.

Although Li Xiuhua didn't refute it, she secretly disagreed in her heart, if your son dies like you, don't expect to marry a daughter-in-law in this life.

With the current family economic situation, although it is not self-sufficient, it is enough to eat and drink, but it is different if there is one more Li Wentao who goes to school. It's a burden for the family.

So Li Xiuhua has always been particularly worried about his son's lifelong events, not to mention that there is no spare money at home, Mu Ne's character is better than his father, if he continues like this, how can he say about his daughter-in-law in the future.

No matter what, we must seize the opportunity in front of us first, for Li Wentao, Li Xiuhua's mother is not less worried, just the current meal has prepared four dishes and one soup, which is already particularly rich for such a mountain village family, and Li Baoshan's gluttony was hooked out, and he had lunch again.

When the four dishes and one soup were served, even Li Wentao was surprised: "Parents, as for making so much, I can't finish it." ”

Li Xiuhua said indifferently: "If you can't finish eating, you can save the next meal, anyway, it's all your own family, and you can't run" But I was thinking in my heart, silly boy, where do you know your mother's mind.

It turned out that Li Xiuhua was a drunkard who didn't mean to drink, and he did such a meal not only for his son, but also for Chen Lu, it was rare to bring back a girl today, how could she not care.

As for Li Baoshan, he had already eaten on the side, and he had already made two glasses of wine in the blink of an eye, and he had a feeling of drinking and enjoying himself. With such a leading example, Li Wentao naturally cannot lag behind.

After everyone sat down, Li Xiuhua shifted her gaze to Chen Lu and asked curiously, "Who is this little girl?" ”

Without Li Wentao answering, Chen Lu stood up and said very politely: "Hello uncle and aunt, my name is Chen Lu, and I am a friend of Brother Xiaotao." ”

"What are you doing when you stand up, sit down quickly"

"Thank you, Auntie," Chen Lu sat down.

Li Wentao secretly snickered, this was the first time he had seen her so polite.

Li Xiuhua looked even more happy, secretly thinking about how polite the child was, she was beautiful and beautiful, and frequently served vegetables for her, that enthusiasm made Li Wentao and his son next to him amazed, and those who didn't know thought that this was Chen Lu's mother!

didn't know that Chen Lu was complaining in her heart.

Li Xiuhua saw that her son had lost a lot of weight in four months, and she was distressed and deliberately put a lot of meat when cooking, with different fat and thin, and it was just a few pieces of big fat meat that were sandwiched into Chen Lu's bowl.

Chen Lu looked at the snow-white and greasy fat in the bowl, and his heart was full of disgust, and he subconsciously pulled the fat meat to the side and only ate rice.

Seeing this, Li Wentao hurriedly relieved the siege and said, "Mom, you give her some lean meat"

"What's wrong?" Li Xiuhua has not yet reacted.

Li Wentao explained: "There are a few children nowadays who like to eat fatty meat, even your son and I don't eat fatty meat, let alone this girl!" ”

"Look at Mom's confusion, what the child wants to eat, you are welcome, if you don't like to eat, there is left" Li Xiuhua picked the fat back into his bowl again.

Chen Lu hurriedly thanked him, secretly glad that he finally didn't have to eat big fat meat. The amiable Li Xiuhua made Chen Lu feel a little good in her heart.

was troubled by what happened just now, but Li Xiuhua was not a little embarrassed, but thought that even his appetite was about the same as his son, it was just fate!

"Girl, where do you live?"

"Auntie, you can just call me Lulu, my family lives in Liucheng."

is still from the city, Li Xiuhua is even more happy in his heart, it is a blessing that a boy in a mountain village can ask a city girl to be his wife!

He asked again, "How old are you?" Lulu. ”

"Fifteen"

"Well, it's a little small," Li Xiuhua muttered, the basic situation is almost understood, it should be the family situation.

"Mom, stop!" Before she could continue to ask, Li Wentao had already stopped her and said, "You are on a blind date!" Why do you ask so much? ”

Li Xiuhua was not angry at all, and said: "Isn't it all the same, it will be good for you to know more in the future." ”

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Li Wentao, even Chen Lu was shocked, and he didn't dare to answer anymore, and said in his heart that he regarded himself as a daughter-in-law, so he could only eat with a red face and a stuffy head.

Fortunately, the job is not big, otherwise, Chen Lu's face would be buried in it.
