While talking, Jiang Yang and Jiang Ergou had already arrived at the door of the house.

After seeing the appearance of the person who came, the girl jumped forward in surprise: "Brother! ”

Jiang Ergou parked the motorcycle aside, and smiled and took out two pieces of candy from his pocket.

"Yingzi, has our mother cooked?"

Yingzi took the candy and said, "Just start cooking the pot, and do it right away." ”

Jiang Ergou turned his head to look at Jiang Yang: "Big brother, this is my third sister, you can just call her Yingzi." Yingzi, this is my eldest brother. ”

Yingzi was about twelve or thirteen years old, and her two twisted braids were tied very long.

After hearing Jiang Ergou's words, politely asked: "Big brother is good." ”

Jiang Yang nodded slightly in response.

He looked at the wooden barrel in Yingzi's hand and asked curiously, "Is this pig food porridge?" ”

Yingzi looked at Jiang Yang's serious appearance and sneered: "This is a boiled sweet potato, and the yellow-green ones in it are sweet potato leaves, which are used to feed pigs in the village." ”

Jiang Yang was amazed when he heard this.

As far back as he can remember, baked sweet potatoes were not cheap in the city, more expensive than bread.

In the countryside, these became materials for feeding pigs.

Jiang Ergou explained on the side: "Big brother, these sweet potatoes in the countryside are not rare, like a little bump in the cellar, they will be brought to the stove to cook, whether it is chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs, they all love to eat." ”

Jiang Yang smelled the faint fragrance of sweet potato porridge and nodded slightly.

If it weren't for the sake of face, he really wanted to try it.

At this time, the courtyard seemed to hear movement outside, and a woman in her thirties looked out as she walked with a red washbasin.

"You're not a dog?"

When Jiang Ergou heard this, he pulled his neck and shouted, "Mom, it's me!" ”

After that, he pulled Jiang Yang towards the courtyard.

The women wore grey coarse cloth garments, and the sleeves on their arms had faded.

The black cloth shoes were covered in dust.

Her skin is a little tanned, her lips are chapped, and it can be seen from her eyebrows and eyes that if she is usually maintained, she will be a beautiful young woman in the city.

The woman's name is Chen Suzhen, a veritable rural woman.

Sixteen years ago, I got married from the next village.

In the first year of marrying in Fulou Village, she gave birth to Jiang Ergou, and in the second year, she gave birth to two girls, and her family has six acres of fertile land, planting peanuts and fruit trees, and her small life is okay.

But within two years, her husband went out to play cards after drinking, and never came back. I heard that there was a fight with someone, and people were beaten to death and thrown into the river.

In the countryside, a woman's life after the death of a man, especially with three children, is simply too hard.

Pruning, spraying, weeding, fertilizing, fruit picking of fruit trees. Sowing, pruning, fertilizing and weeding of peanut fields. The workload fell on her alone.

worked day and night on the farm, and finally exhausted this once beautiful woman.

I went to the east of the village to find someone to see, and Tulangzhong took some Chinese medicine for her to drink every day, and told her not to work so hard anymore.

Chen Suzhen has no choice but to reduce her workload appropriately.

In spite of this, there is still no escape from the widow's gossip.

Fulou Village is a big village, with tens of thousands of people.

Many drunks in the village have drunk too much, and they always come here to make trouble.

Chen Suzhen didn't dare to offend, so she could only choose to swallow her anger.

After a long time, her daily spirit became nervous.

Especially when I saw my son followed by a raw face.

"Why are you back at this time, this is ......"

Chen Suzhen stood in the courtyard and asked softly after seeing Jiang Yang.

Jiang Ergou said: "Mom, this is the eldest brother I told you, the job of selling cold drinks in our village last time, and I can go to work in the city this time, it was arranged by the eldest brother!" ”

Chen Suzhen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then subconsciously wiped her hands on her apron, becoming a little overwhelmed.

"Oh, you kid is really, such an important guest comes to the house, don't say hello in advance, I'll go out and cut some meat and come back!"

After that, Chen Suzhen immediately began to get busy, pulling the lamp and finding tables, chairs and benches.

Jiang Ergou said: "We don't even have a phone at home, why should I say hello to you, Mom, don't be busy first, the eldest brother is here, you go kill a chicken and stew it!" ”

Chen Suzhen slapped her forehead after hearing this: "Yes, yes, yes, we also have chickens, you pour hot water for your brother to drink first, and I will kill the chickens!" ”

With that, he walked towards the back of the courtyard.

After hearing this, Jiang Yang hurriedly said: "No need to kill chickens, just eat a bite!" ”

In the countryside, most of the chickens they raise are used to lay eggs, and they are willing to kill them to eat.

Unexpectedly, Chen Suzhen said directly: "Then how can it be done!" You are the great benefactor of Ergou, and I finally came to the house, but I have to treat you well. Kill, kill! ”

As he spoke, he could already hear the sound of hens struggling in the hen's coop not far away.

By this time, the sky was already hazy, and the light bulbs in the yard were a little dim, flickering on and off.

Unstable voltage is a common problem in this era.

The yard of Jiang Ergou's house is very large, dirty soil, but it is very strong and smooth.

A large tiled house with mud walls divided into three rooms.

There was a bird's nest under the eaves, and black wires were pulled in from the poles outside the yard, as if to split the sky.

The small orange square table is not big, and it is covered with pulp.

Jiang Yang sat on a square stool, and the cool wind blew through it was very comfortable.

Jiang Ergou took out a thermos and a glass from the hall.

The glass had apparently been carefully cleaned, and half of the word "囍" had fallen off on it.

One rock sugar, half a cup of boiling water.

Jiang Ergou pushed the glass in front of Jiang Yang: "Big brother, I don't have tea at home, so I'll put a piece of rock candy for you." ”

Jiang Yang took it with a smile and said, "Don't be so troublesome, just cool and white." ”

Jiang Ergou said seriously: "That's not good, you are from the city, and you finally came to the countryside, so you can't be wronged." ”

Jiang Yang shook his head helplessly and didn't say anything more.

Chen Suzhen moved very quickly, carrying the hen in her left hand and a kitchen knife in her right hand to the corner of the yard.

A knife goes down, and then the hen is thrown aside.

The hen struggled on the ground for a while, and finally stopped moving.

Yingzi filled the basin with boiling water and brought it over.

Mother and daughter began to pluck their hair.

Music suddenly played on the radio at the head of the village, which was the theme song of "Huanzhu Gege", and "Dang" sung by the Power Train Band.

"Let us be the chic and chic of the red dust,"

"Riding horses galloping and sharing the prosperous ...... of the world"

The door of the fence yard was opened, and another little girl ran into the yard with a crossbody bag on her back.

"Mom, I'm going to kill chickens today! Who's coming from the house! ”

This little girl not only looks very similar to Yingzi, but even the two braids are almost identical.

If it weren't for the different clothes they were wearing, Jiang Yang almost thought they were alone.

"My second sister Reiko and Yingzi are twins. This girl is estimated to be catching loaches again after school, and she will come back soon. ”

Jiang Ergou sat aside and said.
