Chapter Seventy-Three: The Old Man's Village
As long as everyone gives a little love, the world will be a better place.
Zhang Luo suddenly remembered such a sentence in his heart, if the world is full of people like Xiao Xu, this sentence has no value of existence at all, Xiao Xu is completely this kind of person.
Zhang Luo sighed a little at the moment, everyone is multi-faceted, at first he thought that Xiao Xu was just a paranoid, but now he knows that Xiao Xu is not only paranoid, but also a little blank paper. If it is summer, looking at Xiao Xu's arm, then it will give people the feeling of a strong man, the muscles on Xiao Xu's hands are not covered, even if there is no force, you can see the two slightly bulging muscles.
And Xiao Xu's face is still very good, although it is not very tall, but it is completely a clothes rack. No matter what kind of clothes, Xiao Xu can completely hold up.
And the fat man is fundamentally two extremes with Xiao Xu, although the fat man is fat, or pork belly, but he has no muscles at all, so forget it, but the fat man is still dark-skinned, if he loses weight, then there will inevitably be another nickname, Xiao Hei.
And the fat man's height is okay, standing with Xiao Xu, he is a head taller than Xiao Xu.
However, the fat man can not be called a hanger at all, can only be called a clothes destroyer, no matter what kind of clothes are worn on the fat man, it will give people a feeling of wearing a T-shirt, and the dog meat can't go to the main hall, which may be the best adjective.
However, in terms of personality, maybe every fat man is a diplomat, and there is nothing to compare with, the fat man wins.
Unconsciously, Xiao Xu led the two into the village, and at this moment, Xiao Xu seemed to be full of strength, and the mental state of the whole person had completely changed.
For this feeling, not only the fat man felt it, but even Zhang Luo also found out.
"This is the village of the elderly, and the whole village is full of children except for the elderly, and the young people have gone out to work. Basically all the young men and women in the village have gone out, so every time I come here, I always want to do something for them. Xiao Xu said with a little emotion, but in fact, every time Xiao Xu came over, he troubled them, and there were very few people who could really help.
"Ugh! Then there are no young people here? Who will take care of these elderly people when they are sick? The fat man asked a little naïvely.
"Minor illnesses can be fought by themselves, and major illnesses depend on the old Chinese medicine doctors in the village, but the old Chinese medicine doctors are also old, and I really don't know what to do in the future." Xiao Xu said a little helplessly, he is not a billionaire, nor is he a savior, it is impossible to help a village, not to mention, these old people have been rooted here all their lives, who would want to leave!
The sophistication of the people is all here, and the fallen leaves are also here, so where can they go? Even if they go out with their children, they can't get used to life outside.
"In fact, there are many such villages, which is also a unique style, many times it cannot be said that children and grandchildren are not filial, after all, they are used to staying in one place, and they can't adapt to changing places, and the rent in the city is too expensive, many people in the family work for two people, and it is already very hard to save money, and then bring their parents, then it is not a part-time job to make money." Zhang Luo sighed and said, this situation will happen anywhere, not only here, but also many invisible places.
Especially in some families, parents want to have a son, the front is full of daughters, and only give birth to a son when the fourth or fifth is the family, at that time, there are four old people, there are five or six children, plus the small two, the life burden of a family of ten people is all on the two parents, how is the pressure not big, and how is the burden not heavy!
Zhang Luo had not seen one or two families with such a structure, they lived in urban villages, where rents were cheap, and they were more of a different form of countryside than cities.
It's just that they have changed their place of residence, but the money they earn from what they do may only be a few hundred yuan more than that of their hometown, but for those hundreds of yuan, they have to get up earlier and work later.
"Then why do you have to go to work? Can't you do it well at home? And isn't it time to encourage hometown construction work? Especially for some landed peasants, there are a lot of subsidies. The fat man asked a little puzzled, for people like the fat man who had never lived in the countryside since childhood, he couldn't understand those people at all.
In the eyes of the fat man, what he does is not as important as accompanying his family, just like with Zhang Luo, he also knows that Zhang Luo will definitely not go out so ordinarily in the future, so he is willing. Otherwise, the fat man will stay out for a few months at most, and then he will go home.
"A few years ago, there was only a maximum of 20,000 yuan a year in the countryside, but when you go outside and go into a factory, you can make 60,000 or 70,000 yuan a year, and you can save more than 60,000 yuan a year. Xiao Xu looked at the fat man and asked.
"Uh!! Well, you have a point. ”
Under the leadership of Xiao Xu, the three of them walked into a house that looked good in the whole village, during which they saw Xiao Xu on the way to greet anyone who could meet him, and he remembered the name, Uncle Li, Aunt Zhang's call non-stop, and the old man who met Xiao Xu also happily agreed, at this moment Zhang Luo and the fat man knew that a person not only had two personalities, but also a third hidden character.
The room is very clean, it looks like it has been cleaned often, the layout of the whole room is very simple, the door is posted with a big happy word, although it has been a little shabby, but it is still reluctant to throw it away.
The bed is very soft, really as Xiao Xu said, very soft, even if you stand on the side of the bed, you can see the straw at the edge of the foot of the bed, some are still golden, and some of the colors have faded, it seems that there are some years. There is also a bed of cotton wool on top of the straw, although Zhang Luo did not lie down, but just pressed it with his hand, he also felt that it must be very comfortable to sleep, this kind of bed, Zhang Luo still slept when he was a child, he had not seen it for many years, and suddenly saw it, and there was a sense of excitement that was difficult to explain.
Not to mention the fat man, when he got to the bedside, he began to get excited, wah-wow yelling, obviously this novel bed made him very interesting.
The old man and grandmother are both eighty years old, although they are in good spirits, but their actions are still a little slow, and they have been smiling, especially when they heard that the three of them had not eaten yet, they had to make a few good dishes with their parents and children, and they were also blocked by Xiao Xu, otherwise the fat man and Zhang Luo would be embarrassed to eat.
After looking at the place where he lived, Xiao Xu let the two old people rest in the living room, planning to cook a dinner for a few people, the old man was very happy, and said that he wanted to drink a few more glasses, but who knew that the old grandmother glared and immediately did not dare to make a sound.
Zhang Luo and the fat man were very happy to watch on the side, especially the fat man, who wanted to laugh but was embarrassed to laugh, and his face was red. Zhang Luo was no better than the side, and kept pinching his thighs with his hands.
But the relationship between the two is touching, the two old men have lived together for at least fifty or sixty years, and now they can still be so affectionate, for others, how can they not be envious, jealous and hateful! How many 50 years are there in life? How lucky it is to be able to find someone who has gone to the white head together.
