Remember [Flag] in a second, popular free reading!
After all, at this time, it is important to have both glory and loss, and everyone cares a lot about the reputation of their team.
Moreover, the people in the village are all surnamed with the same surname, and they are more or less related to each other, and the relationship can last for a long time.
After bidding farewell to the people who saw them off, and went to Xie Zhuang to pick up the pearl family of three, a group of people took an ox cart and rushed to the commune.
Fortunately, Xu Zhongming had a successful calculation, and borrowed a relatively large, two-cow ox cart in advance, otherwise, he really couldn't pull 4 adults and 6 children.
When I bought the train ticket, Luo Changsong took his senior military officer's certificate and bought 4 sleepers directly, and several of them happened to be in a private room, so they didn't have to adapt to strangers.
At this time, regardless of whether the height is more than 1.2 meters, the children who follow the parents do not need train tickets, so there is no need to buy a peaceful train ticket.
"These days have passed so fast, seven or eight years have passed in the blink of an eye, and I can still remember the excitement and apprehension when I went to the countryside." When she packed everything up and sat down to talk, Pearl looked at the scenery outside the window and said with emotion.
"Yes, back then, I thought that educated youths went to the countryside to enjoy happiness, but who knew that when I got there, I found that it wasn't like that at all. Fortunately, I met you and Xiao Nian, otherwise I really don't know how to survive this day. Liu Yifan also said with a sigh.
"You should be grateful to yourself for going to the countryside to be an educated youth, otherwise how could you find such a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law and give birth to such a well-behaved and sensible son." Xie Xiaonian teased with a smile.
"You're really right, if I hadn't gone to the countryside at the beginning, how could I have touched a pearl, which shows that the two of us are still very fateful." Liu Yifan said cheekily.
"The child is still there, so you don't have to panic." Pearl white Liu Yifan said after a glance.
"What's wrong with the child's presence? I'm teaching him to improve his emotional intelligence a little bit, so that he won't be able to find a daughter-in-law in the future. Liu Yifan smiled and continued.
Seeing that his daughter-in-law was about to stare again, Liu Yifan hurriedly said: "Give me all your kettles, I'll go get hot water for you, I haven't drunk water for so long, I should be thirsty, just drink some hot water, warm and warm." ”
"You've got eyes." Pearl said, rolling her eyes.
"Xiao Nian, you will definitely not be able to take care of so many children at once, when you take a lunch break, I will help you coax one." At lunchtime, Pearl said to Xie Xiaonian.
"No, I've already thought of a way to prepare in advance." Xie Xiaonian said mysteriously.
"How?" Pearl asked curiously.
"Of course, it's on the floor, and then we'll sweep the ground, spread the mats and quilts I brought, and let the children lie on the ground directly, and save them from falling off the bed." Xie Xiaonian smiled and continued.
"Your method is good, 6 children, or sleep on the ground is the safest, and it also saves us from delaying sleep, after all, this bed is so wide, it is enough to sleep an adult, and if you add a child, it is really not enough." Pearl said approvingly.
"Yes, after all, we have to take the train for two days and two nights, sleep is very important, otherwise when we get off the train, we will be listless, and we won't even have the strength to clean up the house." The last time I went back to my hometown, I couldn't sleep, so I thought of this idea, thinking that I would take my children on the train in the future, and if I brought more children, I would make a bunk on the ground for them and play with them. Xie Xiaonian smiled and continued.
When they heard that they could lay on the ground, the children were also very happy, and the speed of cooking was much faster.
As soon as they finished eating, they hurriedly urged Xie Xiaonian to help them lay the floor.
After two days and two nights of training, the group finally arrived at the capital station on the morning of the 12th day of the first lunar month.
"Big brother, I'm here."
As soon as Pearl got out of the train station, he immediately saw the eldest brother standing there, and hurriedly waved his arms and shouted loudly.
"Great, you're finally here, it's a stone, I haven't seen it yet." When Brother Pearl saw Li Pearl and his party, he hurriedly ran forward and said happily.
"Big brother, I'm sorry for you." Liu Yifan also said out loud.
"Don't bother, you can come to the capital, it's too late for me to be happy, Pearl, who are these two?"
"Oh, I forgot to introduce you, this is my best friend Xie Xiaonian, this is her father, eldest brother, you should know Xiaonian." Pearl happily introduced to her eldest brother.
"Hello, hello, the pearl letter is always a little thought, now I finally see the real person, thank you for taking care of the pearl in the countryside." Brother Pearl said with a smile.
"You are too polite, we are good friends, and we should take care of each other." Xie Xiaonian continued.
"I borrowed a flatbed, and I see that you have a lot of luggage, so I'll send it to you first." Brother Pearl said politely.
"No need, we can finish it, my dad also lived in the capital a few years ago, and he knows how to go." Xie Xiaonian was embarrassed to trouble others, so he refused with a smile.
"Xiao Nian, you're welcome, just let my eldest brother send you, you have so much luggage, and you have a few children, old and young, how can you carry it, even if you get to the station from here, it is enough to choke. Big brother, you push your car over, let's send Xiao Nian home first. Don't give Xie Xiaonian a chance to refuse, Pearl said directly.
"Okay then, I'll trouble you."
If they shirk it again and again, it seems a little too polite, plus there is a lot of luggage, they are really not easy to take, Xie Xiaonian also agreed to the pearl's arrangement.
"The capital is different, much more prosperous than our small county."
Xie Xiaonian sat on the edge of the flatbed, looked at the bicycles, tricycles, and even cars that could be seen everywhere, and said with a sigh.
"This is the capital, of course, it is much more prosperous than the small county, and the supply and marketing cooperatives are bigger than ours. Pearl said with a smile.
"Okay, I just want to see if there's anything rare."
In this way, Brother Pearl and Liu Yifan rode a flatbed tricycle instead, and under the guidance of Luo Changsong, several people walked for more than an hour talking and laughing, and finally arrived at Luo Changsong's house.
"Dad, is this our house?" Xie Xiaonian looked at the very magnificent gate and asked suspiciously.
"Of course, I'll open the door." Luo Changsong jumped out of the car and walked briskly towards the gate.
After Luo Changsong opened the door, he saw a big courtyard, with three large brick houses on each side, which was the most characteristic courtyard style in the capital.
"Dad, this house is too big, I thought our house only had a small courtyard, but I didn't expect it to be such a big courtyard." Xie Xiaonian walked into the courtyard, looked around left and right, and said in surprise.
"This is just the front yard, and the backyard, but the backyard only has a thatched house and a utility room, and the rest is some unused vacant land, and when the house is cleaned up, you can plan it to see whether to raise livestock or grow vegetables!" Seeing that Xie Xiaonian was very fond and shocked, Luo Changsong said proudly.
"There's even a backyard, that's great, when the time comes, let's raise some poultry and grow some vegetables, and we can be self-sufficient." Xie Xiaonian said happily.
"Uncle Luo, is this your family?" Pearl also asked in surprise.
"That's right, it's just my family, didn't you see that the house was empty!" Luo Changsong continued with a smile.
At the beginning, he was reluctant to live in the compound of the military region, and when his house was divided above, he thought it was too big and felt that he had no children or daughters, so he just gave him a small house to live in.
But the above insisted that his credit was there, and if it was a small house in a tube building, it would not be reasonable at all, and if it was not a courtyard of his size, he couldn't push it, so he accepted it.
Now it seems that he still has to thank the person who gave him the house in the first place, otherwise there are so many people in the family, and he really can't live in it.
"It's so good, I'm going to come to your house often in the future." Pearl said enviously.
Now the house is tight, some families are crammed into a small room, like such a large courtyard, normally speaking, at least 5 or 6 families have to live, and there are really not many people who only live in one room like this.
"Okay, you can come at any time." Luo Changsong said with a laugh.
Since recognizing Xie Xiaonian as his goddaughter, Luo Changsong's temper is getting better and better, and when he faces juniors, he is an amiable little old man.
Brother Pearl was a little surprised when he saw that Luo Chengsong had such a large courtyard house, and it was still so intact, and he felt that this person must not be simple.
But he was calm, and he didn't ask directly, and was going to ask his sister when he went back.
"Xiao Nian, I've put all my luggage in the house for you, let's go home first." After unloading Xiao Nian's luggage, Pearl said to Xie Xiao Nian.
"Just unload and leave, I'll go clean up the kitchen, you at least have to drink some water before leaving, send us things back from such a big distance, I didn't even drink saliva, how can I go in my heart!" Xie Xiaonian said.
"Who are we with, you don't have to be polite, I'll recognize the door now, and I'll come to play with you when I'm free." Pearl answered.
"That's it, the days are still long, and my parents are at home waiting for Pearl to go back." Brother Pearl also smiled and continued.
"Okay, then I won't keep you, you guys slow down."
"Okay, Xiao Nian, don't send it, hurry back and pack your things, such a big yard, you can clean it up." After Xiao Nian sent them out of the door, Pearl waved his hand and said.
Seeing off Pearl and the others, Xie Xiaonian and Luo Changsong also led the children to clean up.
It's almost time to eat at noon, so Xie Xiaonian plans to clean up the kitchen first to save delaying the noon meal.
