The service of the hotel is not bad, the driver thought that the Xiao family returned to their hometown, otherwise who came to a remote mountain village on the outskirts of Wushi City, and brought so many gifts, so although the road in the hillside village is not good, the driver still sent everyone to the door.

The Mercedes-Benz sedan slowly drove into the hillside village, raising a puff of dust, the weather was hot, and even the sisters-in-law under the big tree at the entrance of the village were gone, and the cicadas were desperately screaming in the trees, as if they could vent the heat of the weather.

In July and August, the rice grows from shriveled to full, and even if the weather is hot, the villagers of Shanpo Village are working in their fields, sweating under the scorching sun, and only their feet in the water of the rice fields bring a touch of coolness, supporting everyone's hard work.

An Jiaye stayed in front of the door early, yesterday Chengjia told himself that An Xia came back today, and after he poured the water early in the morning, he came back early, the house was already cleaned, the watermelon ice was in the well water from the village, and the mung bean soup was cooked in the house.

An Jiaye waited in a hurry, simply stood at the door and looked at the village, An Dingqiang sneered, thinking that it was just An Xia coming back, and he was not a big person, but he didn't dare to say it, he just expressed his dissatisfaction through a sneer, but he also stood at the door and looked at the village, he didn't know that after this period of exercise and weight loss, his own heart was also changing a little bit.

At first, the people in the village and relatives looked down on him, at that time he entered a vicious circle, the more others looked down on him, he himself couldn't lift his energy, that is, he broke the jar and broke it, but now it is different, he found that when he started running, after losing weight, everyone's attitude towards him slowly changed, when he helped his father do some work, went down to the field to pull weeds, the family and the village praised him.

The feeling made him happy, and he suddenly felt that it was good, and he didn't want to be looked down upon.

"Here, come out, boss, your sister is here."

"Cut, she's not a big person, and the whole family has to go out to greet her in person." Having said this, An Dingqiang stood at the door, looking anxiously at the black car in the distance with anxious eyes.

The car is getting closer and closer, the speed is getting slower and slower, and finally it stops steadily in front of the Anjiaye house, and many people have seen it all the way, a car has come to the village, and the children who are playing crazy outside on vacation see the car and run over from all directions.

An Jiaye rubbed his hands, with a big smile on his face, and watched An Xia get out of the car.

"Fourth uncle!"

As soon as he got out of the car and saw the familiar face and smile of the fourth uncle, An Xia's nose soured, "Uncle, I'm back." ”

"Hey, it's good to be back, I've grown up and become a big girl, it's so good-looking."

An Jiaye saw An Xia, his eyes were also hot, his nose was sore, since An Xia went to the imperial capital, he would think of the child every day, and he wondered if she was doing well.

Xiao Jingsheng and Huo Jingshu got out of the car, An Jiaye hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to stretch out his hand, but looking at Xiao Jingsheng's clean and straight shirt and trousers with leather shoes, he was a little afraid to reach out.

However, Xiao Jingsheng grabbed An Jiaye's hand to retract, "Fourth Uncle An Jia, let's meet again, is your health good, are your crops growing well this year?" ”

Xiao Jingsheng is so down-to-earth, he got closer to each other at once, and An Jiaye's feelings for Xiao Jingsheng came back, "I have always been in good health, and this year's harvest is also good, come into the house, it's hot outside." ”

As he was talking, a young man got out of the car, and after just one glance, An Jiaye was suddenly stunned, the boy in front of him looked like his sister An Zhu, with round eyes, a small nose and an angular mouth that was not thin or thick.

"This ......"

"Xiao Ran, my son, too...... An Joo's son. ”

Rumble!

An Jiaye looked at the tall and thin boy in front of him, and tears fell unconsciously, "Like! Like beads. ”

Xiao Ran looked at the dark-skinned, honest-looking middle-aged man in front of him, and felt an indescribable emotion, and his heart was sour and wet.

"Kid, come in, don't stand outside."

An Jiaye reacted first, he knew that his sister's child had a serious heart condition, and he could see at a glance today that the child was not in good health, with a sickly face, pale skin and purple lips, and he felt very uncomfortable.

"Four...... Uncle. ”

Xiao Ran was a little difficult, but finally called out to the fourth uncle.

With this fourth uncle, An Jiaye couldn't hold back any longer, so he had to lower his head, wipe his tears with his big hands, and choked up with his head: "Hey! Good boy, get inside the house. ”

An Dingkai looked at the person in front of him, he was the child of his sister-in-law, and he was the real An family.

"Boss, go and kill the watermelon and bring it up, and the second brother will go and bring the mung bean soup."

When the group came to the hall, the house was much cooler at this time, and An Jiaye gave the family fan to everyone, "It's hot at this time, fan fan." ”

An Jiaye sat on the side, constantly looking at Xiao Ran.

Xiao Jingsheng said with a smile: "Ran Ran has never been out, and this year he took the whole family around." ”

Xiao Ran looked into the house, the room was a pointed roof, very high, and there was a large beam on it, the furnishings and furniture in the house, he had only seen it on TV, and the only valuable thing in the whole house was a TV set.

"Eat watermelon."

The group was eating watermelon, pulling homely things, Xiao Jingsheng talked about his work, and An Jiaye was responsible for talking about the field, "Let's go to Cheng's house for dinner in a while, and go to three homes for dinner in the evening, Mr. Xiao, you come this time, but you must stay in Wushi for a few more days." ”

"That's so polite."

"It's all home-cooked food, nothing to eat, you are too polite as a family, you bring so many things every time you come, next time you come to the house, don't take anything, now life is much better than before, you can eat enough, and you can afford to eat meat."

Listening to such simple words, Xiao Ran was stunned, "Fourth uncle, didn't you have enough to eat before?" ”

An Jiaye smiled, "In the past, the grain had to be handed in, and I could only leave rations in rations, and those who worked could eat dry rice, and the rest of the people at home ate porridge, and they couldn't eat rice at a meal, they were all mixed with corn, wild vegetables, and sweet potatoes."

As for eating meat, you can only buy a little during the New Year, or whoever holds a banquet to kill pigs, rush over to buy some water, this is a good dish. ”

Xiao Ran looked at An Xia, his sister's life was so hard before, he should have suffered all these hardships, and he had no worries about food and clothing in the Huo family since he was a child, such a day should have been his sister's.

Xiao Ran felt a little sad in her heart, An Xia saw the gloom of Xiao Ran's face, and said with a smile: "I think it's good, picking lotus seeds in summer, digging wild vegetables in the mountains, and eating wild fruits, picking wild chestnuts in winter, roasting them in the stove, and blowing up the chestnut fragrance all over the house one by one." ”

After An Xia said this, Xiao Ran's attention was really attracted and asked how to pick An Xia's lotus seeds.

As everyone was saying this, Cheng Wenlian came in.
