If you want to take a bath, you can go to the hot spring pool alone or in a group of people.
On the edge of the hot spring pool is a flagpole with two pulleys. The soft wire rope of each pulley is hung with two small red and blue flags respectively. When the man bathes, he pulls up the blue flag; When the woman takes a bath, she raises the red flag; If it's a mandarin duck bath, pull up both the red and blue flags. After washing, put down the flag and tell the people who came after: The hot spring pool is idle at this time.
At this time, Jin Shengyang had basically reclaimed the uncultivated hillside land, not to mention that this work was not done by the old people. There was no work in the space at all.
These old people inside, in addition to eating and sleeping, are walking. In order to increase the fun, the women pick fruits and vegetables. The man went to the creek to catch fish and shrimp. What's more, there are a lot of fish and shrimp in it, and they don't know how to run when they see people, which one they want to catch, and how big they want to be.
In fact, they don't need to do these things themselves, Lulu and Lu Jinnan have some work, and a little bit of work is enough for them to eat. There are all kinds of fruit in the kitchen and in their respective homes; Delicious fish stew and braised prawns are served on the table every day.
The zoo and herb garden are connected to the outside during the day and cannot be seen. They used the evening time outside to watch. Anyway, there is no day or night in it, and the old people don't think anything about it. As long as there are animals, go over to watch them, and only go back to rest when they are tired of watching.
The leisurely life and comfortable environment make the people living here happy, happy and happy on their faces.
Only one person was not in a good mood, and a cloud of sadness floated on his face from time to time.
This person is none other than Tian Dongmei, a middle-aged widow who has lost her husband.
Speaking of Tian Dongmei, we have to talk about the housing here.
The houses here are spread on both sides of the stone road north of the cave. They are all twelve rooms in a row, and three rooms in a household.
Each home is three north rooms. In the middle is a hall. On both sides is the east and west. In the entire residential area, there is no problem for 100 families to live.
Since there is no feeding for livestock, there is no scourge of wild animals, and there is no thief stealing. All the houses have no courtyard walls. When you walk out of the house, you can see the whole row of doors and windows. You can hear the voices in the room.
Quite a few houses though. But in order to take care of each other's convenience. Everyone still lives next to each other. The children live in rows or adjacent houses around their parents.
Tian Dongmei lives in the same row with her parents and eldest brother Tian Dashu and his wife, and the second brother Tian Dasen and Wang Hongmei live in the back row.
Seven people were in one restaurant at the time of the meal. When I was a child, I added three couples and six people from the Hao family.
Tian Dongmei saw that the people who came here, including her parents, were all in and out, talking and laughing, you love me and love intimately.
I was the only one who went alone, and when I entered the house, there was no one to talk to, so I could only kill time in front of the TV. I felt a little lost in my heart. I can't help but miss the scene at home:
Although the three children are all married, they are all filial, and they know that she is alone, and often come home to accompany her. Grandchildren, granddaughters, grandchildren, and granddaughters also often revolve around her. It's busy, but it's not empty.
"Mom, I think it's better for me to go back, it's boring here."
One day, Tian Dongmei finally couldn't help it and told her mother Tian Lushi about her troubles.
Tian Lushi disagreed, glanced at her, and said, "It's so good here, what are you going back for?" At home, you can't eat a meal without cooking, what is it here? Ask them to cook whatever you want to eat, and you don't even have to move your hands. ”
Tian Dongmei: "It's really good here, but it's not for me." Mom, you think, I'm alone when I come over, and I'm very lonely. At home, there are still children to watch, there are housework to do, tired is tired, unconsciously a day has passed, and it does not seem to be long.
"It's idle here, but I always feel like I'm not settled, and I don't know what to do. I want to do some work to kill time, but I don't have to.
"I can't sleep when I lie in bed alone, and I just hope that everyone will get up and be lively. I opened the door and came out to listen, but there was no movement at all, and I slept soundly. I couldn't sleep when I lay down, so I sat alone in the hall, waiting for everyone to wake up. ”
Tian Dongmei burst into tears when she said this, choked up and said, "I think I'm really better off going back." ”
Tian Lushi said anxiously when he heard this: "It's so easy to come, and I can't go back if I say anything." Everyone here is older, your father and I, as well as Qingqing's grandfather and grandmother, are all over 100 years old, and their bodies are still strong. This has to be outside, and even the bones are probably gone.
"You're so old, you go out for three or two years, and you're old, and you're going to be buried in the ground, what else is there? How can you enjoy Qingfu here!
"Besides, you can't find any conditions like here, and if you go out, it's hard to say when you come back. Even if it's his own niece, he can't just go back and forth! I just you and Ernizi, your two daughters, there is no one left, and you can't leave me anymore if you say anything. ”
Tian Lushi said and moved his true feelings, his voice was choked, he thought about it, and said: "Otherwise, if you move to our Xili room, live together, and it is convenient to talk, you won't feel lonely." ”
Tian Dongmei shook her head: "Mom, you and Dad have lived here for more than 30 years, and you are used to being quiet, I have passed, don't say that I am not used to it, even you will feel awkward." It's not like there's no house here. Besides, my brother and sister-in-law came over and let the second sister-in-law chew the root of their tongue again. ”
Tian Lu's brain suddenly became hot, and he said, "Otherwise, let Qingqing deal with someone for you, and you can have a companion here." If only I could live to the age of your father and me, I would be a companion for more than 20 years! ”
Tian Dongmei shook her head like a rattle: "Mom, what are you talking about?" I'm in my seventies, and I'm still married, so I don't make people laugh? ”
Tian Lushi: "People here can live longer, not as good as outside. There is no one else, what are you afraid of. You don't feel lonely, you can stay here. You don't care about this, I'll tell Qingqing about it. ”
One day, Tian Qingqing went to visit, Tian Lushi pulled her into his room, closed the door, and whispered to her: "Qingqing, look at your aunt, tell me if you are willing to go back." ”
Tian Qingqing was stunned when she heard this, and thought: They are all dead people, where are they going? Although they themselves do not know that they are dead, it is true. The idea says nothing that will make them happen. Otherwise, it's not messed up! Then he asked, "Auntie didn't say why?" ”
Tian Lushi: "I said it, I don't think it's interesting here, it's better to mess around with the children at home." The loneliness of a person who came over the past was stuffy. (To be continued) (To be continued......
