In 2010, the golden autumn sun shone on the land of Longmen.

Long Fei, who graduated from Guangxin Agricultural College, had his original dream, and as soon as he stepped into the house, he said to his parents in the hall: "Dad, Mom, I have come back after graduation." ”

"Fei'er, you've graduated, what are your plans?" Long Xiaolan took Long Fei's words and said.

"Go back to your hometown Fengshan to raise chickens." Long Fei gave his original dream.

"Go back to Fengshan Village to raise chickens?" Long Xiaolan knew that what her son decided would not be easily changed.

She also knows that when her son was a child, he was very fond of chickens.

Back then, Long Zhaotian was obsessed with raising chickens in his hometown, and in that era of "looking in the mirror, dressing up at night, and being watery at noon", and eating porridge three times a day, who could still use his own "life food" to raise chickens? However, when the son saw that the chickens were so hungry that they were "squeaking", he secretly went to the rice bowl to fetch rice to feed them......

Once, the son saw the little rooster fighting with the centipede, and went to rescue the centipede bitten by the centipede, and his whole body was red and swollen. The son not only did not stop, but also tried to save the rooster despite the pain, which is not something that ordinary children can do. Before her husband went out to work, he repeatedly told himself to raise the two children in the family well and not let the children suffer and suffer, but the husband only went out for half a year, and the son suffered so much and suffered such a big sin.

Another time, the son and daughter were playing with the chickens outside the house. Fat Tsai Dong, Liang Wenda and several other village friends jumped up and down with their schoolbags on their backs, talking and laughing, and Fat Tsai Dong said: "Ah Fei, from today on, we will go to school to study!" ”

The son looked thoughtfully in the direction in which they had disappeared.

With tears in her eyes, she said, "When your dad earns money outside, we will go back to school." ”

The son asked, "Mom, what's the use of them going back to school?" ”

She said sadly: "Silly boy, of course it will be useful to go back to school!" After graduating from university, he became a national cadre. ”

The son asked, "What do state cadres do?" ”

She said, "Be a leader! It's what we ordinary people call being officials. ”

"And then, what are you going to do?" The son broke the casserole and asked to the end.

She smiled: "I will retire and return to my hometown at the age of 60!" ”

The son disagreed: "It's better not to read those books in the first place." ”

She asked, "So what do you want to do?" ”

"Play with the chickens! Look, Grandma, how fun these chicks are! The son looked at the chicks and said innocently.

She was angry: "If you don't read, can you play with chickens for a lifetime?" ”

"Yes, when I grow up, I want to raise a lot of chickens and be the king of chickens!"

Her son's childish words really made her wonder whether to scold him or praise him.

She hugged her two children tightly in her arms, and her eyes glistened with tears.

……

The past is like smoke, and she still remembers them one by one.

But when she thought that her son was young and ran back to his hometown to raise chickens just after he walked out of school, wasn't this self-destructive future? Moreover, after she moved to the county seat, the uncle was not enough to live in because her son was married, so she took the initiative to ask the uncle to move over......

Thinking of this, Long Xiaolan turned to Long Zhaotian: "Husband, quickly persuade your precious son and tell him to dispel this idea as soon as possible." ”

Knowing the son is more than the father.

Long Zhaotian sat on the sofa smoking a cigarette and said slowly: "I think my son's choice is correct and supports my father." ”

When Long Xiaolan heard Long Zhaotian say this, she was so angry that she pushed Long Fei in front of him, as if solemnly announcing something, and said, "He, surnamed Long, is Long Zhaotian's son. And the descendants of the Long family, if they are reduced to living by raising chickens for a lifetime and have no income, in the future, what face will you have to see your ancestors and ancestors? I ......"

Speaking of which, Long Xiaolan couldn't help but turn her back on her face, and her shoulders began to twitch violently.

Long Zhaotian was stunned.

After a while, he walked over to comfort Long Xiaolan.

A few tears slowly trickled down her cheeks.

These tears stirred up a thousand feelings and feelings in Long Zhaotian's heart.

He was about to say something, only to hear Long Xiaolan choke up and say, "I can't think of you, and I also support my son's choice......"

Long Zhaotian nodded and comforted: "Wife, you calm down first, and then listen to me." After you heard this, you still insisted that Fei'er look for a job in the city, and I will persuade you again, okay? ”

"Okay, you say." Long Xiaolan looked at Long Zhaotian and said.

"Fei'er loves to raise chickens, you know......" Long Zhaotian analyzed Long Fei's love of raising chickens since he was a child, and said, "With Fei'er's love of raising chickens, he will definitely make a name for himself when he returns to his hometown......."

Long Xiaolan listened attentively.

Long Zhaotian then analyzed: "The reason why Ah Fei had the idea of returning to his hometown to raise chickens is that he knows the mess left by the collapse of Ada and Ah Guang's chicken farms in the village......

Obviously, although Long Zhaotian is in the southern capital, he cares about Fengshan Village and knows everything that happens in the village.

"Oh...... Some time ago, didn't you say that Ada's chicken farm is running well? How did it fail? When Long Xiaolan heard this, she couldn't help but interject.

Long Zhaotian said what the village chief Shi Jinchang said that day when he went to the county for a meeting and asked him to come out to gather in the evening.

After hearing this, Long Xiaolan said with a heavy heart: "Ah! I see. ”

Long Zhaotian looked at Long Fei who was standing beside him, and said meaningfully: "This shows that our family Ah Fei has his father and fellow villagers in his heart." ”

"Ah Fei is still a child who has not grown up, what can he do when he goes back!" In the eyes of his mother, a son is a child who has not grown up for a day.

"Mom, I'm almost 20 years old, and I'm not a kid anymore." Long Fei is naturally competitive and easy to resist.

Long Xiaolan was worried: "Ah Fei, anyway, you are still bamboo shoots out of the mud, young and tender, my mother is worried about you." ”

“……”

When Long Zhaotian saw Long Fei's mother and son talking and talking, he actually raised his mouth and hurriedly came out to play a round: "Don't worry about talking back to your mother and son first, listen to me and then talk about it." ”

Long Xiaolan and Long Fei immediately stopped their voices.

"Ah Fei returned to his hometown to start his own business, which is good for his future growth." Long Zhaotian affirmed his son's approach.

When Long Xiaolan heard Long Zhaotian say this, she actually favored her son so mercilessly, and her face immediately became gloomy, and her face was elongated.

Seeing this, Long Zhaotian immediately made a move to "retreat as advance", and changed his words: "If Ah Fei can't make a name for himself when he returns to his hometown and accomplishes nothing, then ask him to go back to the city to find a job." ”

“……”

In the end, Long Xiaolan had no choice but to agree.

Early the next morning, Long Zhaotian had breakfast and went to work.

"Mom, after breakfast, I'll leave for my hometown." Long Fei said to Long Xiaolan, who was eating breakfast.

"Ah Fei, let's go back tomorrow, your mother will cook a few good dishes tonight, and wait for your father to come back and cook for you." Long Xiaolan put down the dishes and chopsticks and said.

"No, Mom, it's sunny today, just in time to return home!" Long Fei said as he went back to the room to pack his bags.

Long Xiaolan turned around and went back to the bedroom, came out with a bag of things in her hand, and handed it to Long Fei: "Ah Fei, this is a little private money from my mother, you can buy some souvenirs and go back to your uncle's family, and ......" She said this, swallowing back the words that had come to her lips (as well as your grandfather and grandmother). The reason is that the family was separated a few years ago, and Long Zhaotian's father divided one share equally according to his three children, and a bowl of water was flat. Long Zhaotian fell out with his father because of this, and the voice of chickens and dogs was heard by each other, and they didn't get along with each other.

Long Fei waved his hand again and again: "This is my mother's private money, I can't ask for it, I have money." ”

Long Xiaolan asked, "...... What about the money? ”

"When I was a sophomore, I won the 10,000 yuan 'National Olympiad Award', and I didn't ask for it when I came back to you, but I'm still there." Long Fei leaned on her arms and said mischievously, "It seems that my mother is a little old and her memory has declined!" ”

Long Xiaolan touched Long Fei's hair lovingly, and said with a sigh: "Yes, Mom is old, and I don't remember many things." ”

"Mom, I'm teasing you, who said my mom is old! My mom is in such a good shape, at first glance, she is in her early 20s at most! Long Fei laughed and stood up and said.

"Just your sweet mouth, make your mother happy." Long Xiaolan smiled and laughed.

Long Fei said goodbye to his mother and took the shuttle bus from Longmen to Longfeng Town. After getting off the bus, I trekked all the way through the mountains and rivers, and returned to Fengshan Village in the starry night.
