Chapter 44: Defection to the Brother
"Grandma, we're back."
Shu Zheming ran ahead, pushed open the fence door of the yard, and shouted loudly into the house.
A moment later, hurried footsteps rang out.
"You came back a little late today, and the Sanya family next door has already returned." Wu Huihong said, and then greeted the two: "Come into the house quickly, the dishes are already in the pot, and you will be able to eat soon." ”
"Hmm."
Shu Zheming nodded, turned around and went back to his room.
After Shu Nuan went back to the room and put the bag away, she turned her feet and came directly to the kitchen.
At this time, Wu Huihong was stir-frying the dishes in the pot while burning the fire.
Shu Nuan came directly to the stove and helped light the fire. After putting a few branches into the stove, she looked at the old man who was stir-frying the vegetables in the pot with one hand.
"Grandma'......"
Wu Huihong responded: "Well, what's wrong?" ”
"Grandma, today's homeroom teacher talked to me for a while."
When Shu Nuan mentioned this, there was a look of thought in his eyes.
After Wu Huihong heard what she said, she paused slightly, and then asked, "What did the teacher say?" Did you do not perform well in school? ”
Elementary schools in rural areas rarely hold parent-teacher meetings, and when they hold parent-teacher meetings on the day they get the notice after the final exams, as long as the village is busy, they will not go to the parent-teacher conferences, but just let the children go by themselves.
As the child's grandmother, Wu Huihong actually doesn't know what her child's situation is like at school.
"No, I'm obviously very well-behaved at school." Shu Nuan interrupted her grandmother's speculation and continued to whisper: "The teacher asked me where I planned to send Ming Ming to junior high school, and I needed to prepare in advance after thinking about it. ”
"Isn't there still one semester left before graduating from primary school? Is this going to prepare you for junior high school? ”
Wu Huihong had obvious surprise on her face, and she also said from the side that she had not thought about this kind of problem for the time being.
"There are only a few junior high schools in our neighborhood, and the number of students recruited by the school is set every year.
Shu Nuan remembered that when she was in junior high school, the master tossed for a while for her to go to school.
Wu Huihong sighed a little helplessly: "I don't know what to do about this, you can watch and do it." ”
"Hmm."
Shu Nuan bowed his head and signaled that he understood.
After the dishes in the pot were cooked, Wu Huihong put them on a plate, then scooped a large scoop of water into the big iron pot, waited for a while, and after lunch, she used the hot water in the pot to brush the dishes.
In their mountain village, the dishes are washed directly with hot water, and as for any dish soap, I haven't heard much about it now.
Shu Nuan didn't extinguish the fire in the stove, and after getting up and patting the cigarette ash sticking to his body, he took the dishes and chopsticks and followed out.
The lunch was made by my grandmother, and the taste was not good, but I have been eating it for so many years, and I am used to it.
At the dinner table.
Shu Nuan listened to the conversation between the two people beside him, and he lowered his eyes to think about things.
If she could, she didn't want to leave her hometown to develop outside, but there was really no way out for her to stay here now.
When she was sure that the water gushing out of the mysterious spring she possessed had a special use, she did not think about growing vegetables and selling them.
But the biggest problem standing in front of her at the moment is the big problem of inaccessibility.
On the fence of the village chief's house, there is also a sign with the slogan "If you want to get rich, build the road first", but building the road is a big project, and it is not easy to complete by talking about it.
There is also a real problem, that is, he has no means of transportation that can be used for transportation, and if he has been carrying it on his shoulder, he will not be able to make a lot of money if he is tired.
No matter how good the vegetables you grow, as long as you can't ship them, you can't sell them, and no matter how good the things are, you have to let others know about them. In addition, the geographical location of Shujia Village is not advantageous, and those villages that are closer to Xiaoshan Town have people who often go to sell vegetables.
There are only so few people in a small town, and there are only so many people who buy vegetables, and they all sell them, and they can't sell them for a price.
"Warm Warm...... Warm ......"
When two soft calls sounded in her ears, she was stunned for a moment before looking up.
"What's wrong?"
Shu Nuan saw her grandmother calling herself, and asked suspiciously.
Wu Huihong looked at her silently for a few seconds, and said softly: "Are you worried about work?" Don't think too much about it, everything will be fine. ”
Shu Nuan smiled and replied, "Grandma, I know it in my heart." ”
"I can't help you with anything." Wu Huihong sighed, and then proposed: "Since you are going to Xiaoshan Town, then go to your mouse brother, he knows people there and can just help you." ”
"Okay."
Shu Nuan also understood that if he wanted to stay in the small mountain town for a long time, the first thing he had to do was to find a place to stay.
Although she worked there for a long time, she was not very familiar with Xiaoshan Town, after all, she spent most of her time working in the back kitchen, and rarely had the opportunity to go to the town to hang out.
After making a decision, Shu Nuan packed up her things and set off the next day.
Because there were also people in the same village who wanted to leave, she took a hitchhike.
And the family she hitchhiked with was the family of the more wealthy village chief.
In the whole Shujia Village, the village chief's family has a motorcycle, and it just so happens that the village chief wants to send his children back to school.
Motorbikes can run much faster than bicycles, and they set off in the morning and arrive in the small mountain town in the morning.
"Uncle Zhimin, thank you."
"You're welcome, you pay attention to safety alone, we still have something to do, so we'll go first."
The village chief Shu Zhimin's sun-tanned face showed a happy smile, and a mouthful of big white teeth shook Shu Nuan's eyes.
Shu Nuan blinked his eyes and came back to his senses, then waved his hand: "Uncle Zhimin, Xiaoqi, goodbye." ”
"Goodbye."
After a brief goodbye, the two parties separated at the junction.
Shu Nuan looked around the surrounding environment, and after confirming that he was very close to Brother Mouse, he moved his wrist, picked up his luggage and walked slowly towards his destination.
Because she is not in a hurry about work for the time being, she naturally doesn't have much luggage, just some commonly used items and two changes of clothes.
Naturally, she also brought the most important money.
Now that spring has begun, the willow trees on both sides of the road have already sent out tender shoots, and there are many more pedestrians walking back and forth on the road than in the days before the Chinese New Year.
Shu Nuan watched slowly along the way, slowly remembering that in the future, she would have to work in this town to make money.
After walking for about ten minutes, Shu Nuan turned around and came to a farmer's market.
And at the free stall in the farmer's market, she saw Shu Hao standing in front of the stall from a distance.
"Brother Mouse!"
In the midst of Shu Nuan's happy shout, Shu Hao, who was a little dozing off because there were no guests coming to buy items, stood up violently.
