Chapter 88: The Big House
"Mom, Dad, why aren't you at home. ”
"Your dad is setting up a stall on the side of the Immortal Mountain. I'm going to call him and tell him to come back soon. Zhao Hongfang said and took out the phone and began to dial.
Li Qingyun stretched out his hand, he was going to stop it, but after thinking about it, he was going to go over to find his father, but his mother was too fast, so he dialed it out.
"Your dad is coming back soon, you wait a minute. Just sit down, I'll wash the fruit for you. ”
"Mom, sit down, just let me come, it just so happens that I also brought some fruit back this time, you can taste it." Li Qingyun smiled and grabbed her mother, and then pulled her to the stool next to her and sat down.
Zhao Hongfang smiled, didn't say anything, and nodded directly.
Li Qingyun opened a bag, and then came out with a bag of fruits from it, which he had just taken out.
Li Qingyun took out a few dragon fruits from it, such a southern fruit, although the taste is not the best, but in their place, it is still difficult for ordinary people to eat it.
Although they are all bought in the supermarket, few rural people are willing to buy and eat. Therefore, Li Qingyun specially put some southern fruits in his bag this time, so that his mother could taste them.
When Li Qingyun took the dragon fruit and walked inside, just as he was looking for the kitchen one by one, when he opened a door, he suddenly saw a dog barking at it, and it was grinning at Li Qingyun, looking like if you want to come in again, I will bite you.
"Huzi, don't scream, Xiaoyun, have you been bitten. Before Li Qingyun could say anything, she saw Zhao Hongfang running over, and then pulled Li Qingyun to check, until she saw that he was fine, she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next moment, she turned around and scolded Huzi, and then took out the rope and tied it up, as if she was afraid that it would bite Li Qingyun.
You must know that in the countryside, few people will tie up the dog, and it is generally allowed to run around on its own.
Seeing the depressed expression in Huzi's eyes, Li Qingyun also shook his head.
Hu Zixin said, I'm just a responsible housekeeper, what's wrong, why should the master treat him like this. It's so depressing.
Li Qingyun was very sympathetic to Huzi, but he didn't say anything at this time, and now the guests are still waiting. Come and play with it again when you have time.
Li Qingyun took the dragon fruit and cleaned it, and after that, he found a knife, then put it on a plate and took it out.
"Mom, Gangzi, come, fresh dragon fruit, come and taste it. Li Qingyun cut two dragon fruits in front of them.
Ordinary dragon fruit doesn't have much taste after being cut, but Li Qingyun's dragon fruit has a clear fragrance when everything opens, which makes Yue Hongfang, who has never eaten dragon fruit, drool.
Gangzi, who had worked outside for a few years, glanced at Li Qingyun unexpectedly, but he didn't say anything, although he felt that this dragon fruit was a little different from what he had eaten before, but he didn't think much about it. He would only think that what he was eating at that time was just some ordinary fruits, maybe those special fruits were different.
"Well, it's delicious. This one is delicious. I'll have to save some for your dad and let him try it later. ”
"No, Mom, I still have it there. As long as you like it, just come to me, and this will bring a lot of back. Dad is back, I'll just cut it for him. ”
Don't look at the father and mother who usually quarrel, but Li Qingyun can see that their relationship is very good, although they may not have said 'I love you' to each other in their lives, but their relationship is stronger than those who say I love you every day, I don't know how many generations it will be firm.
I don't know why, at this time, Li Qingyun was a little sad, and he couldn't help but think of his ex-girlfriend. Well, although he hadn't thought of her for a long time, he remembered how sweet they were when they were together. What kind of sea is rotten, the ends of the earth, but she was still defeated by reality, and she ran away with others directly.
However, Li Qingyun did not show his frustration, he didn't want his mother to worry. Although he was smiling all the time, his heart was a little sad at this time.
Li Qingyun and they didn't talk for long, Li Qingyun saw his father riding a tricycle back, and in the trunk, there were also some goods, in addition to some food, there were also some handicrafts, most of which were made of bamboo.
Although their village used to be very poor, they have lived a self-sufficient life for thousands of years, so adult men generally know how to make bamboo arts, and usually use a dustpan for the family, a basket and so on.
And many children don't have toys when they are young, like the little ones in the city. It's their grandfather or dad who makes toys for them out of bamboo.
Such things were not worth much in the past, but in the past few years, they have been valuable, especially after those mountaineers in the city come over, they see exquisite bamboo handicrafts one by one, and think it is fun, so many people will take one or two back, whether it is to make ornaments or play with children at home.
Besides, in the modern world, handicrafts are getting more and more expensive, although they are not necessarily better than those made by machines.
Li Youde is usually at home, in addition to doing some farm work, he will make up some small things to buy.
But when he heard that his son had returned, he didn't care about making any money. I just took the stall and came back on a tricycle.
When he was far away from home, Li Qingyun's eyesight comparable to that of an eagle's eye found that his father looked like he was rushing to go home, but when he arrived at the door of the house, he made a look of indifference. When he walked in and saw Li Qingyun, he just smiled and said to him, "I'm back! Why did you come back so early this year?" ”
Men, that's it, a lot of times, they don't know how to express their feelings, they don't feel as emotional as women.
"Dad, I'm back, sit down, I left you fruit." I'll get it for you. ”
"It's good to have Uncle De,"
"Gangzi is here. Aren't you going to run a sports car today?"
"I happened to pull Qingyun today, no, I sent him back, and I'm not going to run, so I should rest for half a day. ”
"Yes, Qingyun, Gangzi pulled you back so far, did you pay the fare? ”
Li Qingyun didn't say anything yet, but Gangzi spoke first: "Uncle, what are you talking about, aren't you slapping me in the face, if I collect Qingyun's fare, I will still have the face to come to the door in the future." I didn't meet it, forget it, I did, that is, by the way. ”
Li Qingyun didn't mention the fare at the beginning, not to say that he was greedy for that little cheapness, he knew that if he said it, it would hurt Gangzi's heart. And the results are no different. He's definitely not going to take his money.
Sure enough, now that Li Youde just asked, he became excited.
"That's so embarrassing, okay, uncle is wrong, if you don't accept it, you won't accept it, but today Qingyun is back, you come over to have a drink with him in the evening." ”
"Haha, uncle, of course you can have this, even if you don't say it, I have to be cheeky at night. Ha ha. ”
"Okay, Qingyun, you just came back, I guess I still have something to say to my uncle and aunt, I won't delay you, I'll go back first, and I'll come back later." ”
"Okay, thank you today, come over in the evening, please drink a good drink, if you don't come, don't regret it. ”
"Don't worry, I heard that you have made a fortune outside, how can this kind of good thing of eating a big family be without me. Ha ha. Okay, let's go first, and we'll see you later. Liu Zhigang stood up with a smile and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute. Take these fruits back to your parents and try them. Don't refuse, it's not a good thing, just try it. ”
"Okay, then I'll take it. Gangzi saw the fruit bag sent by Li Qingyun, and he felt it, it was about ten catties. It's just that these are enough for the fare, but he didn't have any hypocrisy and accepted it directly.
After seeing Gangzi driving away, Li Qingyun returned to the house with his parents.
Because this house is newly built, Li Qingyun is not familiar with it at all, so. At this time, Yue Hongfang took Li Qingyun to move her luggage to the second floor.
They like to live upstairs, the first floor is too damp, not good for the body, so, under normal circumstances, the first floor will not be inhabited, it is used as a storage room.
One of the advantages of the countryside is that the homestead is large, and the old houses of their families used to cover an area of two or three hundred square meters, not counting those small courtyards, otherwise, there are five hundred square meters.
But now that a new house has been built, the area is not that big.
However, he took a general look, and the first floor was two hundred and fifty square meters, and if it was put in the city, he didn't know how much it would cost to buy it.
However, in the countryside, it only cost more than 500,000 yuan to build such a house on the third floor, a total of more than 700 square meters.
Originally, Li Youbei didn't want to repair it so big. After all, it costs money.
As a result, Li Qingyun found out and called him, saying that he must repair it bigger, and he didn't have to worry about the money, after all, now the state is becoming stricter and stricter in the management of rural housing. The first time it might be a little better. It's not so easy to approve it in the future.
Of course, they didn't occupy the arable land, and the second was built on the basis of the old house, although the area was a little larger, and generally no one would come to trouble them.
Because now it is stipulated that a family can only have one homestead.
