Old Don is actually not old.

Tang Hai is now just turning twenty, and the people in the village got married early and had children early, even if Old Tang's family doesn't have much money, a little later than his peers, he is not too old now.

It's just that because he was too busy in his early years, making money to build a house, tidy up the fields, and provide education for his two children, Old Tang's hair has long been completely white, making him look older.

But Old Tang is still very content, no matter how much he sells blood before!

The eldest son works in the United States, and I don't know what he does, sometimes he says he is a shoemaker, sometimes he is an apprentice chef, he also makes sausages, he raises fish, and now he sells canned food......

In Lao Tang's opinion, the eldest son is estimated to be working for others, but he can make money if he is willing to endure hardships these years, and the eldest son is not a person who can't endure hardships, but he is not afraid.

I just heard that the United States is very chaotic, and watching news broadcasts is all about wars, but the youngest son said that watching news about the United States on the Internet is all good things, everyone is very rich, and what Aohei spends a holiday with children intimately, and it seems to be very happy......

Lao Tang, who has been to the provincial capital once in his life, can't understand the game of public opinion, thinking that his eldest son has been smart since he was a child, and he shouldn't suffer a loss when he goes abroad, so Lao Tang didn't think too much.

There are only 300 households in this village, and Old Tang's father, that is, Tang Hai's grandfather, is actually in the family.

It's not because he is poor, Tang Hai's grandfather's father, that is, Tang Hai's great-grandfather, was still a big mountain bandit at the beginning, with money and land.

Tang Hai's grandmother quarreled with his great-grandfather and great-grandmother every day, and finally Tang Hai's grandmother went back to her parents' house in a fit of anger. It's just that unlike others, my grandmother's family is also very poor, so I can't talk about the upside down, and the old Tang is still surnamed Tang.

The oil pots and the like used in the great-grandfather's family at that time were all made of silver, and all the fields were from the Tang family, which were cheaper than Tang Hai's uncle, but later the uncle also gambled out, and he actually escaped the ten-year catastrophe......

Old Don was a contented man, smiling as he walked along the path that only allowed ox carts to pass, lined with the houses of the villagers.

The green bricks indicate that there are at least three young people in the family, and they must not be lazy.

The mud-brick house shows that the population is not prosperous. Fortunately, the village is built halfway up the mountain, and the flat land below is used as farmland, and this kind of terrain is not afraid of rain.

In the past, there were even more dilapidated houses, which belonged to the Wubao households, but the political axe allocated funds to build the Wubao households, and the two Wubao households were lucky enough to take them away......

Thinking about it this way, my house is still relatively dilapidated in the village? How unreasonable!

I still remember that Brother Liu, a five-guarantee household, laughed at himself every day, saying that he was busy working to marry a daughter-in-law, then busy working to repair the house, then busy working to raise a child, and then having another child. It's like him, he uses everything he earns, eats and drinks well all his life, and helps build a house when he is old......

That old Wang Ba, where does he know that his daughter-in-law is in pain and his son is worried?

"Brother Liu hasn't come here for a long time, and the Wubao Household Building is too far away." Tang's mother also carries a lot of things on her back, and her face is charitable, that is, she is estimated to eat well, and she is stronger than Tang's father. Think about Tang Hai's height of 1.8 meters, and then look at Tang's mother, who is stronger than Tang's father, you can know that Tang's father takes good care of his wife and children.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Lao Liu, so I guess he's dead."

“……”

Old Tang pushed open the courtyard door, a small black dog was looking for grass to eat in the yard, and a big black dog was lying lazily at the gate.

Tang Hai, who was working in the town that year, came back with a puppy and said that he was going to the United States to break through, let the dog guard the family, and come back when the dog grew up.

As a result, now the big black dogs have their third birth, and Tang Hai is still in the United States.

The house is quite large, with 15 square meters and a 50-square-meter yard.

However, the houses in the village are actually like that, and it is estimated that they will not be developed in the vicinity for 20 years, and they are not worth much no matter how big they are.

"Five flowers, go aside." As soon as Tang's father came home, the big dog immediately greeted him, and his dirty paws were on the trouser leg stained with yellow mud, Tang's father didn't feel anything, Tang's mother waved her hand and drove the big dog 'Wuhua' down, Wuhua was not angry, and jumped around the two people, and then the little black dog also came over.

The home is getting better and better, and Tang's father is planning to build a second floor, but it seems that the eldest son will not live here with peace of mind, and the younger son will also ......

I was too tired from a day's work, and Father Tang couldn't eat at night, so he went to open a bottle of beer and took some leftovers to make snacks.

"Didn't my son send a box of food to the family, saying what kind of canned food it was, it hasn't been opened yet, I'll go see how to get it." Tang's mother is in better health than Tang's father, she walks ten kilometers without breathing, and when she sees Tang's father's dinner, she plans to eat this, and she is also a little anxious.

She wouldn't open canned food, but there were meatballs in this box of food, and she had at least seen how others had made them.

Cut into cubes, add sauerkraut and oil to stir-fry, then simmer for a while, then stir-fry again......

If Tang Hai saw his mother doing this fish ball, he would definitely keep wiping his sweat.

"What about Zhenguo?" Father Tang shouted into the kitchen.

"In the morning, it seems that I went to Xiaomei's house in the next village to study, and Xiaomei was admitted to the University of Science and Technology, so I counted on her to give Zhenguo a hand."

The conditions here are very difficult, even if the local protection is correct, the admission score of local students is very low, and it is difficult for students in mountain villages to get into universities. Like Tang Hai, Tang's father and Tang's mother really wanted to sell blood for him at the beginning, and they had to drink a lot of salt water before drawing blood, otherwise they couldn't resist it directly after pumping, and later they sold serum......

Tang Hai gave up studying and working to support his younger brother, which is incomprehensible to many people, but in this environment, it is estimated that many people will choose the same approach.

Tang Hai's younger brother is called Tang Zhenguo, and when he heard Tang's father say that he let someone with knowledge get up, the brothers both felt that it was better to call Tang Hai or something, just one at will, Zhenguo is no different from Yuejin, but it is a few years slower than other families......

Xiaomei is from the next village, and her family must also have a history of blood and tears.

Tang Zhenguo also knew that his brother worked hard and studied very seriously, and Xiaomei's family invited the Tang family to be courteous, so Tang Zhenguo took the opportunity to ask if he could teach himself. Today is the first day of his past studies.

Father Tang remembered this at this time.

"If you don't say it, I almost forgot! But it's time to come back! ”

Tang's mother sighed secretly in the kitchen, she found that her husband's memory has not been good recently, and he has not yet reached fifty......

A plate of fragrant smoldering sauerkraut fish balls is served.

At this moment, the two dogs lying at Tang's feet suddenly stood up and rushed towards the door. didn't call, it means that the youngest son is back, Tang's father and Tang's mother looked at the door.

A young man who looked five or six points similar to Tang Hai, or even taller than Tang Hai, appeared, with two carps tied to the straw knot in his hand, one might be three or four catties, and the other was estimated to be more than half a catty.

"Zhenguo, I'm back, just in time to eat...... Did you go fishing in the river again? ”

"Well, I was lucky today, I caught three in less than an hour, I just sent one to Sister Xiaomei's house, and I came back late. Today's food is so fragrant, did you open the box of food sent back by the eldest brother? ”

The second child of the Tang family casually arranged a random chair when he entered the door, and then put the fish in the kitchen to hang, planning to salt it again at night.

After taking a seat, Tang's father deliberately turned the side of the fish balls to the second child of the Tang family, but although Tang Zhenguo was young, he was obviously very sensible, and took the lead in sandwiching a small ball of sauerkraut to eat.

After only taking the first bite, Tang Zhenguo's face changed instantly!
