………………………………………………………………
Wang Xiao's words inadvertently opened a good topic, a car of people are basically Wang Xiao's fellow villagers in that county, when it comes to interesting stories of rural life and rural food, many people have very rich experience, one by one spoke enthusiastically, and the atmosphere is very active.
Until the bus slowly started, the people on the bus discussed with each other, and the laughter showed no sign of abating.
In order to take care of the chatting enthusiasm of the fellows, the flight attendants did not turn on the car film and television equipment to play movies as usual, so as not to affect the interest of everyone in chatting.
After the bus goes out of the city and gets on the highway, it will drive at high speed in a very stable state, through the window glass, you can see the ripe crops and trees on both sides of the highway, which makes people feel refreshed and feel the nature that has not been seen for a long time.
Lu Miaosha tried not to think about what Wang Xiao's family would think of her, and focused on listening to the laughter of these people, and her eyes turned out of the window, immersed in the peaceful and quiet natural scenery outside the car window.
Two and a half hours later, the bus drove into the station of the small county town, a car of people chatted all the way, listened to the familiar local sounds all the way, as if they had been old friends for many years, and did not forget to say hello to each other when they got off the bus, and then went to pick up their respective luggage, carrying large bags of luggage, and going their separate ways.
When the car stopped, Lu Miaosha lost the things and environment to divert her attention to, and became nervous again.
She used to envy those children who had harmonious families, and she used to long for herself to live in such a family environment, but when all this was really coming, she was so nervous and afraid.
What she was nervous about and what she was afraid of, she couldn't tell herself, anyway, she was inexplicably apprehensive.
Wang Xiao picked up the luggage of the two of them and took Lu Miaosha to transfer to the township bus, seeing that she was still so nervous, he persuaded her: "Nominally you are my girlfriend, but you can treat my family as my customer who talks about insurance in your heart, you are my assistant, as long as you can show the confidence you usually work, I promise that there will be no problems." ”
Lu Miaosha listened to it, and felt that what Wang Xiao said was also a good way, you can try it.
The two got on the township bus, and after more than 20 minutes of driving, they finally got off at the entrance of Wangying Village.
Sure enough, as Wang Xiao said, although there are agricultural vehicles pulling corn stalks or corn cobs coming and going on the road, there are really no idlers standing at the corner of the street waiting to watch the excitement.
However, when they got out of the car, two people approached them in the distance.
One is an uncle who is dressed plainly, has short gray hair, and is nearly sixty years old; One is an aunt wearing a floral gown, holding two huge red pomegranates in her hands, and smiling all over her face.
"It's my dad and mom who came to pick us up." Wang Xiao smiled slightly and whispered to Lu Miaosha.
Lu Miaosha also saw that Wang Xiao did look very similar to his father, and she could guess it without Wang Xiao's introduction.
She saw Wang Xiao's parents with kind faces, very similar to the feeling she remembered when she saw her grandparents when she was a child, and the inexplicable tension and fear on the road just now immediately disappeared at this moment, but she inexplicably felt close to the family.
Maybe it was seeing Wang Xiao's parents and seeing this familiar and kind face that made her miss her grandparents who had passed away for many years.
Wang Xiao's mother, Luo Yuhong, is the kind of enthusiastic person, walking in front of Wang Xiao's father Wang Shoufu, and Lu Miaosha didn't see her at all, stuffed the biggest and reddest pomegranate in her hand into Lu Miaosha's hand, and said enthusiastically: "Are you tired on the road?" Come home and sit down, and I'll cook for you later. This pomegranate is home-grown in our yard, and there are not many fruits this year, so these two best ones have been kept for you! You take one first and taste whether it is sweet or not, and if it is not sweet, you eat the other. ”
Luo Yuhong gave one of the biggest stuffs to Lu Miaosha, and gave the other to Wang Xiao, and told him: "You taste this sweetness or not, if this is particularly sweet, you can change it for Sasha." ”
"Thank you, aunt!" Lu Miaosha was amused by Wang Xiao's mother, holding a pomegranate with a rich fruity fragrance, and said happily.
"My family, thank you, hurry up and taste it, there was not much rain this spring, and the pomegranates produced less, but they were sweeter than in previous years." Luo Yuhong said with a smile, her eyes kept looking at Lu Miaosha, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, she was pleasing to the eye, she was much more beautiful than the girls that the neighbors wanted to introduce to Wang Xiao, and she was so gentle and well-behaved, there was no reason not to be happy!
Wang Xiao's father was a simple and quiet person, and quietly took the suitcases of the two of them and helped them drag their luggage.
"Mom, what about my eldest brother and second brother?" Wang Xiao was a little surprised to see that only his parents came to pick them up, so he asked.
"Your eldest brother caught two big hares in the field two days ago, and I will stew them for you tonight, and I asked him to go to the town to buy them. Your second brother went fishing in the river and is coming back soon. Your sister-in-law and sister-in-law have both returned to their parents' house in the morning, and they should come back now. Wang Xiao's mother said.
Wang Xiao's house is five bungalows, and there are two side rooms that are integrated with the gate, one is the kitchen, and the other is the bedroom of Wang Xiao's parents.
The yard is relatively large, in addition to the occupied area of the house and the courtyard wall, there is about 100 square meters of open space, planted with a pomegranate tree, and a few plum trees.
The courtyard of Wang Xiaomen's house is larger than the neighbor's house in front of them, this is their old house, and at that time this area was still relatively remote, and the villagers were reluctant to divide the new homestead here. But after all, good houses are limited, so they don't want to move? In order to encourage everyone's positive surname, the village chief can compensate for the surname land if the family is willing to assign the homestead here. As a result, only Wang Xiao's parents agreed to plan a house here, so it was much larger than the one they moved later when the homestead was tight.
Lu Miaosha followed them into the yard, and sure enough, she saw a large iron cage under the pomegranate tree, in which were two big gray hares, one of which had only one ear, and the other side of the ear was only two inches long at the base of the ear, as if it had been cut with scissors.
"How come this rabbit only has one ear?" Lu Miaosha held a pomegranate in her hand, stared curiously at the gray hare with red eyes, and asked in surprise.
Wang Xiao's father, Wang Shoufu, lit a cigarette and said with a humble smile: "It may be that when the wheat was harvested more than three months ago, it was cut by someone's harvester." In the past few years, most of the scissors old harvesters were used here, one year our family had a few acres of wheat harvested the latest, and many hares who had no place to hide were hiding in that wheat field, but when they went to harvest in the morning, a few acres of land were harvested, and seven or eight rabbit ears were picked up. ”
Although Lu Miaosha is also a rural person, her hometown belongs to the countryside on the outskirts of the county, and the fields were harvested early because of the construction of the factory, so she had never heard of or seen such an interesting thing when she was a child.
She listened to Wang Shoufu's narration, and her mind automatically made up a fairy tale of beautiful pictures: the golden wheat waves, flowing gently in the morning breeze, and the hares, who had been busy all night, were hiding in this last wheat field to recuperate; Far east, a round of red shyness poked out half of the crimson face...... Suddenly, there was a roar of machinery, and it was getting closer and closer, and the rabbits in the wheat field immediately woke up alertly, and pricked up their long ears to hear what was happening, and the result was tragic......
Lu Miaosha is a girl who loves fantasy, because she had no playmates when she was a child, she can only rely on her own fantasies to pass the boring and dull time.
It seems that this Mid-Autumn Festival has made a good start for her.;
