Moving from the city to the countryside

For the convenience of Grandma Zhu, the dinner was served on the coffee table in front of the sofa.Zhu Dagui and Liu Xiufen kept picking up food for Zhu Wenxuan, and Grandma Zhu also picked up food.Zhu Wenxuan ate vigorously.He is away most of the year, but comes back occasionally, and is always treated better than others.Especially with Grandma Zhu, Zhu Wenxuan is a precious grandson, and even at the age of 28, he is also a precious grandson.

"See, you've lost weight," Grandma Zhu felt melancholy as she put the pork belly in his bowl, "Didn't you say that if you didn't eat the big pot in the cafeteria, you cook it yourself? Why are you still thin?" In Grandma Zhu's impression , The big pot dishes in the cafeteria are all less meat and more vegetables. It is said that they are fried, but they are almost the same as boiled.

"Hey, I feel thinner when Mom says that." Aunt Zhu has always been filial to her mother-in-law, and rarely disagrees with her.Uncle Zhu obeyed his old mother and his wife, and seeing that they felt sorry for Zhu Wenxuan, he hurriedly said, "I really lost weight, eat more, Xuanxuan."

Zhu Wenxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but his heart was warm, and he agreed, and showed them with big mouthfuls.

Grandma Zhu is satisfied, and she is also satisfied with her son and daughter-in-law.She just fell and lost some blood, and she was a little weak in spirit due to her age, but her appetite was still good.Amused by Zhu Wenxuan, he ate a large bowl of rice and drank half a bowl of bone soup.Zhu Wenxuan was afraid that it would be inconvenient for her to get up at night to go to the toilet if she drank too much, so he drank the remaining half of the vat into his stomach, making his stomach swollen.

In the evening, Zhu Wenxuan stayed at his uncle's house. Although their grandmother occasionally cleaned his house, but this time it was so long before the Chinese New Year, he came back suddenly, and he didn't wash in advance, so he had to go there tomorrow to clean up and move in again.Uncle Zhu carried Grandma Zhu to the bed, put a urinal under her bed, and left the grandma and grandson to talk.

Seeing that the bed was quite big, Zhu Wenxuan asked Grandma Zhu, "Is this the new bed made by the uncle's house?" Sheets are fine to sleep on.

"Just last year during the Chinese New Year, Wenjie and Wenxia came back together, and they both brought their families with them." The bed was too small for Zhu Wenjie's family of three to sleep, and Zhu Wenjie finally slept on the sofa.As soon as they left, Aunt Zhu urged Uncle Zhu to buy a bed, "It's rare for your son and his wife to bring their granddaughter back, and there is no bed to sleep in!" Hehe laughed.

Hearing people say that it is not easy to work for the boss outside, Grandma Zhu asked: "Is it okay for you to go back to the company in such a hurry?"

"Grandma, wait for a while." Zhu Wenxuan ran out and told his uncle to sleep with grandma at night so that they would not make his bed alone.Uncle Zhu knew that he was close to Grandma Zhu, and that he could take care of Grandma Zhu in that room, so he hugged a quilt for him and let him go.

Zhu Wenxuan came back with the quilt in his arms, licked his face and said to Grandma Zhu, "I haven't slept with grandma for many years."

Grandma Zhu pretended to be unhappy, but her body was moving inside.Zhu Wenxuan was startled, "Don't move! I'll hug you and I'll hug you." He hugged Grandma Zhu inside, spread the quilt and got in, "Grandma, if it hurts or feels uncomfortable, just call me Ah." With a nasal voice, two tears rolled down and fell into the pillow.

"Well, I will definitely call you." Grandma Zhu may not have heard that his voice was wrong.She slept with Zhu Wenxuan many years ago. At that time, Zhu Wenxuan was very young. Now that Zhu Wenxuan is so old, she feels very happy to be able to sleep together.

"By the way, you haven't said that it's okay for you to go to work like this?" Grandma Zhu remembered what she hadn't finished talking before.

"It doesn't matter." Zhu Wenxuan pinched his nose, breathing much better, turned his head and said with a smile: "I decided not to go to work, and I will stay with you at home from now on."

Grandma Zhu was stunned for a moment, then her eyes narrowed with a smile, "Okay, let's go back and tidy up the house tomorrow, and it's better to live in our own home." Taking care of her and taking care of her grandson must be too busy.Grandma Zhu felt that her injuries were not serious, and she would be able to go to the field in two days, so she felt more comfortable at home.

Zhu Wenxuan originally planned to take care of grandma himself, so he also thought it would be more convenient to live at home. "Well, let's go back early tomorrow morning, and you lie in the room and watch me clean up. Grandma, let me tell you, my skills in making ribs are better now than last year, and you must be able to eat them."

"Xuanxuan loves to eat whatever grandma does."

Zhu Wenxuan chattered with Grandma Zhu in bits and pieces, and Grandma Zhu agreed everything with a smile, but she never asked him about work.Zhu Wenxuan didn't know if she saw something, but even if grandma didn't ask, he felt relieved.Forget about those unhappy things when you get home.He didn't want grandma to worry about him.

Grandma Zhu's legs were inconvenient. After Zhu Wenxuan fell asleep, she squeezed his hand under the quilt with one hand. Seeing that it was warm, she pulled up the quilt for him before she dozed off to rest.

The next day, under repeated persuasion from Uncle Zhu and Aunt Zhu, Zhu Wenxuan and Grandma Zhu resolutely moved back to the house next door.After placing Grandma Zhu on the sofa and turning on the TV to relieve her boredom, Zhu Wenxuan rolled up his sleeves and started cleaning.The eldest aunt usually comes over to help clean up. The living room and kitchen are quite clean, mainly the room where he lives, which has been carefully covered with dust and needs to be cleaned up as a whole.

Zhu Wenxuan changed a mobile phone card, took care of Grandma Zhu wholeheartedly, and calmed down as if everything had settled.After more than a month, Grandma Zhu was basically able to walk on the ground, but she walked with a little limp.She didn't care about it, and went from house to house every day with a limp.

Zhu Wenxuan looked impatient. He went to the hospital a few times and they told him that he could only raise it slowly when he was old. He went to the vegetable market in the town to buy fresh fish and pork bones and went home to cook soup for Grandma Zhu. I also bought calcium tablets and milk for Grandma Zhu to supplement calcium.

Grandma Zhu cooperated in this aspect, as long as Zhu Wenxuan asked her to eat, after more than a month, she had visibly gained a lot of weight.If you don't look at her legs, she is just a little white and fat old woman.The old sisters around saw Grandma Zhu and laughed, "This grandson is different when he comes back. Look, your chin has grown two layers."

One day Zhu Wenxuan saw her standing with the old sisters. Among them, there was no one with white hair like her, so he asked her if she wanted to dye it black, and he could buy it and dye it for her.At first Grandma Zhu said: "It's still white after dyeing, it's troublesome, don't dye it." But after a long time, she changed her mind and said: "Why don't you dye it for me after the New Year." It's time to dye, keep it for a month, and it doesn't matter if you go back for nothing after the year is over.

Zhu Wenxuan said, "Okay."

Zhu Wenxuan has been thinking about what to do at home this month.He doesn't intend to do his old job anymore, and he won't be able to use it in the countryside.However, Zhu Wenxuan still plans to renovate the house when he earns money.He designed it himself and hired someone to do it.The house he and Grandma Zhu live in now was built when Grandpa Zhu was there, and it is very old.

There is a main room on the first floor with three bedrooms, which is the earliest house layout.Later, it was expanded once, and a large house was built on the vegetable garden next to the main room.It is long, and it is now used as a living room, where the sofa and TV are placed.There is also a row of kitchens inside, narrow, but as long as the living room.

The second floor is also from the time of expansion, with a total of five rooms.There is a door on the building dam, which is mainly used for stacking grain. In addition, there are two doors on the balcony, one is a single room, and the other is a large room with two small rooms.When it was built, it was planned to move upstairs to live in the future, with the large room as the living room and the small room as the bedroom.But now, the houses have been built for more than ten years. Except for the room where the grain is stored, everything else is just a frame. The doors and windows are not installed, so the walls are whitewashed.

The front of Zhu's house is facing the mountains in the distance, with a wide view and good light.There is a row of cherry trees behind, which can be reached from the windows on the second floor.Zhu Wenxuan's hands were itchy eagerly, and he wanted to decorate the house.However, all of this still has to be implemented with money.He doesn't plan to spend the little money in his hand now, and plans to use it as start-up capital to generate more money.

On this day, Zhu Wenxuan washed his clothes and cooled them upstairs.When Uncle Zhu saw him, he called him to the side to talk: "You said you were going to the town to see some business, have you thought about what to do?" Uncle Zhu's house has been renovated and a new building has been built. In the past, Aunt Zhu built a chicken coop to feed the chickens on it.Uncle Zhu would climb the ladder to pick up eggs every morning after dinner.

"No." Zhu Wenxuan went to do market research the day before yesterday, and he found that the basic necessities of life in the town are still prosperous, but all walks of life are showing a trend of saturation or even a little excess. "The shops in the town are very expensive, and there are people who can think of it."

Uncle Zhu took a few puffs of cigarettes, "Every time Wenjie comes back, he asks your aunt to prepare things for him, saying that the food and vegetables grown at home are better than those sold outside, and the chickens, ducks, pigs, and meat are also better. Every household basically grows food and vegetables, which are not easy to sell locally, so how about you sell them in other places?"

Naturally, Zhu Wenxuan knew that the stuff from his hometown was good. After so many days since he came back, he felt that peppercorns were more numbing and garlic more fragrant than those from outside.But he is not ready to go far away.Grandma Zhu is getting old, and he thinks that if he is not at home, Grandma Zhu can eat Douban with plain rice for a month.

"Let's see, I want to find someone who can take care of grandma conveniently."

Uncle Zhu has been farming all his life, but he can't come up with any good ideas for him.The farthest place I have been to is when I was young, I went to Kangding with my fellow villagers to work as masons. "Don't worry, just look for things after you've figured it out. If it doesn't work, you still have a few acres of land at home. It's okay to grow some fruits and vegetables." Since the highway access, the fruits and vegetables here are very popular.

"By the way, I planted millet on your grandma's five-cent field in Ganxiba. Remember to harvest it when the time comes. Do it first, and if it doesn't work, I'll help you." Uncle Zhu wants to stay in the country and will go to the fields sooner or later Yes, let's wait for the child to try it himself.

It's already August, and it's almost the season of ripening millet.Once the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, it's time to cut the millet.Now that he is going to stay at home, farming has become a must. Even if he wants to do some business, his own field can't be left unused, or he will be stabbed in the back.Zhu Wenxuan responded with a smile, thanked Uncle Zhu and went downstairs to ask Grandma Zhu where the threshing machine was kept.He planned to find all the household items needed for harvesting the millet today.

Grandma Zhu was quite surprised, and asked, "You want to cut the millet yourself, let your uncle do it, he's a great worker."

Uncle Zhu who is hardworking, simple and filial to his mother: -_-|||

Zhu Wenxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "How can that be done, grandma, I also helped you when I was young, don't worry, I can do it."

When it was time to thresh millet, Zhu Wenxuan's enthusiasm for farming immediately flowed down with sweat, and finally he could only stick out his tongue and pant.Five-point field millet, he cut it for half a day, less than one-fifth.In the remaining half a day, I threshed the grain with the threshing machine, and tied two and a half sacks of grain by the time it got dark.He went home one bag at a time, and it took him three trips to finish it.Moreover, the last trip had to carry the threshing machine back, back, and away.

Zhu Wenxuan, who hadn't done any physical work for ten years, had swollen arms on the first day, and Gu Hui's upper body was so itchy that he couldn't help but want to scratch after taking a bath.Grandma Zhu was very distressed, so she coaxed him and said, "Why don't you stop doing it and let your uncle do it. Really, your uncle is capable, and he can finish it in two days by himself."

Uncle Zhu who was once again praised by his mother: ~~o(>_<)o~~

Zhu Wenxuan let out a "tsk" and raised his sore arm to wash the dishes, "Uncle has so many homes, and I have to help Wenxia and his wife after we finish. I will do it slowly by myself, and it will be finished in a few days." The uncle planted the millet, but the harvest was harvested by their family. It doesn't matter if he is not at home, and the uncle took it to do it for Grandma Zhu.But now that he's back, if he wants to eat, he'll eat the ready-made ones that others planted with the help of them and just take them back from the fields.

Fearing that Grandma Zhu would get her uncle's ideas again, Zhu Wenxuan hurriedly picked some happy things and said to her, "This year's grain seeds are very good, all the grains are long, and the grains are also very full. Let's replace it with new rice when it dries up." , definitely fragrant."

"Your uncle made friends in the seed company." During the Chinese New Year, Uncle Zhu went to someone's house to pay New Year's greetings.Grandma Zhu said: "I heard that it is a new variety, what is it called fragrant rice?"

The next day, Zhu Wenxuan bought five big steamed buns at the door, and it was a man who drove a tricycle to the countryside to sell them.I don't usually come here, but come during the busy farming season.During the busy farming season, every household has no time to make it by themselves, and most of them will buy some as dry food and take it to the fields to eat.The buns in the country are very big. Although the skin is thick and the filling is small, it can satisfy hunger and endure hunger.

I left two for Grandma Zhu for lunch, and Zhu Wenxuan went out with three buns and a threshing machine.After walking for a while, he heard people talking about hiring a worker, so he turned around decisively and went home.

Grandma Zhu was feeding the chickens in the yard, and she called the chickens to come and eat with the dubbing of "cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck". Seeing him coming back, she thought something was wrong, "Why did you come back? Did you forget to bring something?"

Zhu Wenxuan was squatting down to put the threshing machine on the bench, holding his breath and having no time to answer.Grandma Zhu was very brain-boosting, and she suddenly said, "Oh...you want to relieve yourself."

"Huh..." Zhu Wenxuan let out a long breath, his face full of helplessness, grandma, you think too much. "I heard that there are odd jobs in the town, and they only cost 60 yuan a day. I plan to hire one. I really can't do much in a day by myself."

"It's time to ask for it." Grandma Zhu is not as frugal as rural people who would rather do it themselves than spend money: "Then go and ask for it. I'll call your uncle later and tell him not to spend money." I'm back. Wenxia and his wife have even rented an acre of land this year, and they can't live without your uncle."

Seeing that her grandson was working too hard, Grandma Zhu secretly called Uncle Zhu and asked him to spare time to help Zhu Wenxuan with work.Uncle Zhu has been helping his daughter at home for the past two days. As soon as his mother called him, he immediately said, "I am already in my daughter's field now. I will definitely go there in the afternoon to help my nephew carry the grain and the threshing machine."

Zhu Wenxuan silently thanked his uncle in his heart.It's all grandma's own opinion and it's none of his business.
