m looked around, but didn't find the old couple at home. Seeing his son follow his cousins to the old home, he gave a few words of safety.

He turned around and pulled Zhou Jiao into the main bedroom, looked at it, and said softly: "I'll go to the captain's uncle to ask what's going on at home, don't clean up and wait for me to come back." ”

Zhou Jiao nodded, "The bottom line, you can move in, but you can't die here." This is non-negotiable. If it doesn't work, we'll make up for their old houses. ”

"I know in my heart, so I'll go first. I won't come back when I'm done, I'll go up the mountain first. ”

Zhou Jiao followed him out of the room, and told him uneasily: "Remember to put the medicine powder in a convenient place, be sure to pay attention to safety, don't act recklessly." ”

Zhang Guoqing nodded with a smile and walked out of the house quickly.

Walking on the shore of the field, Zhang Guoqing greeted the villagers with a smile on his face, walked all the way, looked all the way, and found that this year was still a bumper harvest year, but he didn't know how much public grain to pay, otherwise this year would be relieved.

"When did you come back? I thought you didn't want your hometown anymore. ”

Zhang Guoqing stepped forward and said with a smile: "Third grandfather, you have wronged me." This is my root, can I still do without? People can't help themselves on the outside. I think about our Daqingshan every day, and I also want to stay in my hometown and not go anywhere when I get old. ”

After speaking, he smiled at Uncle Zhang on the side and said hello.

It's okay to say he's a villain. He said these words specifically to his uncle. The other party is a smart person, and he should be able to hear what it means.

The old captain smiled: "Do you really think so? I thought you couldn't keep you. ”

Zhang Guoqing said modestly: "That's because you always look up to me." When I go out, I eat a mouthful, how can we be comfortable in our village. ”

The old captain glanced at him and said with a smile: "The more you practice, the more slippery your mouth becomes." How many days will you be back this time? ”

How many days? Zhang Guoqing can't give people an illusion. He smiled: "This time I brought all the children back, and I plan to stay until before school starts." ”

The old captain sighed: "Well done. Let the children have more contact with the clansmen, and they will not forget where their roots are in the future. After speaking, he frowned, "In the afternoon, you come over to help, take advantage of the good weather, and help the two of them move first." It's inconvenient to wait for the winter. ”

Uncle Zhang asked on the side: "Do you live in the ancestral hall or their old house?" ”

The old captain waved his hand, "They still live in the ancestral hall, and they don't have much money to repair the old house." ”

"Or let them continue to live in Xiao Wuna. Anyway, Xiao Wu, they are not at home. ”

Zhang Guoqing glanced at his uncle and smiled without saying a word.

The old captain is old and refined, and he tasted Zhang Guoqing's meaning, and he continued: "Forget it, they are all seventy or eighty, in case they pass away one day......"

I didn't say all the words, but everyone understood the meaning. Zhang Guoqing's courtyard is a new house, who wants to let the old man who has been separated by several rooms mourn.

Uncle Zhang glanced at Zhang Guoqing, "Then you see?" ”

Look at your grandma! Zhang Guoqing found that his grandmother couldn't scold yet. He deliberately distorted the meaning of Uncle Zhang's words, "Okay, I'll take a hand in the afternoon." ”

Zhang Guoqing completely gave up the idea of saying more words to the other party. If it weren't for his father's sake, he wouldn't even bother to give a smile.

He saw the old captain pacing forward slowly, and immediately followed closely behind.

"Did you bring any alcohol with you this time?"

"Both bottles are at my father's, and your brother will get together in a few nights."

The old captain glanced back at him, "Rabbit cub, why are you all given to your father?" Forget it, let your dad prepare the dishes, and I'll go to him at night. ”

Zhang Guoqing smiled and nodded, "Okay." Then I'll go back and talk to him first. ”

The old captain smiled and waved at him, and continued to walk forward.

After Zhang Guoqing left, he went around the mountain first. This time the main purpose of taking the child up the mountain was to find another place, and if it was really dangerous, he had to find another place.

Over there, Uncle Zhang walked home with his hands behind his back after taking a break from work, passing by Zhang's father's old house, and seeing that the door was open, he hesitated and didn't go in, and went back to his house directly.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Aunt Zhang had already made water for him to wash his face, he hurriedly wiped his face, dropped the towel in his hand, went into the hall and picked up a long pipe, filled it with tobacco, lit it with a fire rope and took a hard sip.

Aunt Zhang called her daughter-in-law to open a meal in the courtyard, and she went in first, leaning on the kang to ease her mind. It's really tiring to work all day, and when the farm is busy, what should I do?

With Aunt Zhang's shout, Zhang Qingshan's three sons and two daughters rushed into the hall and sat on a stool waiting for the meal.

Aunt Zhang looked at her two granddaughters, "Go and help your mother serve dinner." ”

The eldest granddaughter said coquettishly: "Milk, I'm tired to death." Let me breathe a sigh of relief. ”

The little grandson sneered: "It seems that I have done a lot of work." ”

"I just do more than you do, I cut two baskets of hogweed in the morning. What about you? I must have run to play. ”

"The little girl is so annoying. You can't learn from Mai Miao. ”

"Then why don't you learn from the eldest brother, and the eldest brother will help me carry the basket."

Aunt Zhang sat up, frowned and shouted, "One by one, they are idle." I'm not going to help your mother. ”

The eldest granddaughter glanced at her grandfather, and when she saw that he ignored him, she couldn't help but pick up her sister who was not leaving, and muttered as she walked: "Patriarchal ......"

"Sister, you can just go, why are you pulling me?"

In the kitchen, Qingshan's daughter-in-law looked at the two sisters and glared, "I don't know how to cook first when I come back, and it's noisy." Starve to death! Look at who is so big in the village, and the girl is not at home to help with the housework. ”

"Hmph, I'm not idle."

The youngest daughter looked at her mother and shrunk her neck, and the seven-year-old girl took the first step to hold the dishes and chopsticks and walked out cautiously.

"Why are you still pestle, don't help your sister. If the bowl falls, see if I don't kill you. ”

"You'll scold me, I picked it up."

"Yes, I'm still your stepmother." After Qingshan's daughter-in-law finished speaking, she glanced at her eldest daughter and walked quickly to the hall with two bowls of vegetables.

After setting up the meal, Zhang Qingshan just came in, washed his hands and sat down to take the chopsticks handed to him by his daughter-in-law, and heard the eldest son say: "Dad, Xizi they are back, I don't want to go to work in the afternoon." ”

Zhang Qingshan nodded, "Okay, you can rest for two days." As soon as he finished speaking, he felt his daughter-in-law pull him, looked at her, and explained, "They don't earn much anyway." ”

Zhang Qingshan's eldest son, Zhang Mingjiang, who is nicknamed Tiedan, then said: "Mother, we are not playing. I heard from Kiko that we are going to see if there are any herbs in the neighborhood in the next two days, and we plan to earn some tuition fees ourselves. ”

Zhang Qingshan's daughter-in-law sneered: "Can you know herbs? There is also your cousin who is also lit nearby, and it can still be left to this day. ”

"Xizi said that she planned to let Aunt Xiao Wu take us to find it."

Zhang Qingshan hurriedly said: "Don't go too far, it's too dangerous." ”

Zhang Mingjiang smiled and said, "Dad, you forgot? If my little fifth aunt goes out, can the little fifth uncle rest assured? A few of us are already good, as long as we take one away, there will definitely be two, and there will be meat to eat. ”

The family in the house laughed when he said this.
