In the car, the little police boasted that the village he was in charge of had good law and order, good management, and good villagers.

Although the countryside is still undeveloped, every household is very poor, and the roads are not easy to walk, but you can see the wildness everywhere, and people in the city like to go to their place to eat game on weekends.

Xiao Mu also talked about the simplicity of the villagers there. Usually at ten o'clock, the village basically goes to sleep with the lights on, and gets up to work before dawn in the morning.Peasant women like to dig wild vegetables the most. People in the village are never willing to eat the wild vegetables they dig out, and they are all waiting to be sold to people in the city on weekends.

The little policeman chattered nonsense, and Ertou inserted into the beauty of his own village and town bit by bit, like every summer in the "Home Garden" competition, every household in the whole village and town will participate, and everyone will judge which house this year The most beautiful garden planted, the strangest flowers and plants, which one adds the most color to the town.

Therefore, the whole town is like a beauty pageant, and the competition is fierce. Even in the snowy winter, the grass and trees are still green, and all kinds of hardy flowers are competing to bloom.

On the weekend of the holiday, different activities will be held in the town hall, and each family will bring two or three plates of their best delicacies, and gather together to participate in the weekend get-together, as interesting as it is.Like singing performances, recitation performances, imitation performances, whatever you want to see.

Hearing the little policeman blinking his round eyes, racking his brains to think of the fun of his own village, but his thoughts were quickly attracted by Ertou, and he had no time to think about it. He yearned for that beautiful town very much, and hoped to get there sooner. , see for yourself.

Xiao Que sat in the back row and listened with great interest. The foreman told him from time to time, like planting the most beautiful garden and preparing food at parties, these are the times that test the skills of housewives. If the housewife is capable, whose daughter will be the most popular, and the young men in the whole town will rush to marry.

Building a house, farming, and repairing sundries will test the ability of the master husband. A good man in the town must be able to repair everything, and it is not a good man to ask for help.So the boys in the town began to develop their hands-on ability from an early age.

"In the future, our garden will be taken care of by Xiao Que, and I can also participate in the garden competition next year. My small back garden has been empty for many years, and I will come back with a big prize this time." The foreman was full of confidence, waiting to return. Jia took Xiao Que to decorate the house.

"Didn't it mean that housewives do gardens? I'm going to learn how to repair machines. Is there a machine repair competition in town? I want to win No. 1." Xiao Que said with a smile on his eyes.

"If you don't want to be my housewife, I can choose you. Xiao Que can't run away." The foreman stretched out his hand to tickle Xiao Que, making him laugh out loud.

"The crane master's family participates in competitions every year, and his craftsmanship is amazing. Last year, my aunt was outmatched by him. The fresh flowers he planted were collected by the crane master from various places. My aunt asked me to buy them. A lot of novel seeds are still waiting to be planted this year, and they have won against him. Xiao Que went and just joined forces with his aunt to plant a large area." Ertou also followed up to join in the fun. His parents left early, and he followed the foreman since he was a child. Later, the house was also built into the foreman’s big yard, and now they all live together, “It’s best for Xiao Mu to join in, my small garden and the garden of my elder brother’s are connected together. We were not at home a few years ago, and my aunt only planted A small garden, if someone comes back to live this year and plant all the land, the three gardens will be connected into a piece, and we will be the first."

"I don't have any land in your place, so how can I participate. But I want to participate. It must be no problem to win a championship. I don't know how to grow anything from herbs to trees. Roses and lilies that little girls like, carnations for Mother's Day , no matter single petal or double petal, red or yellow, I will plant..." The little policeman began to talk about his experience in planting flowers again.

Although Xiao Que said that he would not participate in the garden competition, he remembered the various varieties and flowering methods that Xiao Mu said in his heart.He has only seen small wild flowers on the side of the road, all of which are self-defeating. They are full of purple and red in one day in spring, and the petals will slowly fall off when the autumn wind blows. It is really difficult to take care of the garden.

"You don't need to learn from him, I will teach you when I get home." The foreman squeezed Xiao Que's hand, "Go back and build a glass greenhouse, and I can plant it now."

"It's still snowing outside, so I can plant again in the spring, so I can save my energy and have a good rest during the Chinese New Year." Xiao Que still wanted the foreman to rest more during the holidays, otherwise he would have to get up early and work late at night when he returned to the construction site.

"A few pieces of glass can be erected in one day. All the men in the town will build a greenhouse for their own homes. My eldest brother is also a married man, so the greenhouse must be completed." The foreman is ambitious and waits to take care of his small home.

Xiao Que looked at the foreman and at the children playing together, feeling happy that he finally had a home.

They bought new clothes for boys and girls at the nearest service area.The little girl herself pointed to a set of long trousers, she was not interested in skirts at all.

The boy is not picky about his clothes, but the clothes that are of the right length are a lot fatter on him.For the small gap, I had to simply sew a few places with a needle and thread. With a little modification, the big clothes will fit a lot right away.

"Xiao Que's father is really amazing." The boy touched the new clothes and said something slowly. When he was really grateful, he became shy and whispered.

He was never allowed to call him dad, and even if someone raised him temporarily, he would only be allowed to call him for the first few days, and then he was banned. "Father" is the most intimate term for him this time. He never thought that having a father would be such a good feeling.

The little baby is quite familiar with the boy. He sits next to his brother who has changed into new clothes. He gradually likes the brother who eats his own chocolate and obeys him. He is now sweetly calling him "brother".

The skinny boy seldom appreciates the warmth of his family. He calls his brother dependently when he is eaten by snacks, and crawls on him affectionately, hugging his warm and soft body. The boy soon develops a special feeling, as if He was born with a baby brother, and now his brother is by his side, waiting for him to love.

The little baby is different from those children who were hostile to him before, because the little baby let him touch his soft little hands, and Xiao Que's father felt relieved that he hugged the child with his skinny arms.Boys have long wanted to experience what it's like to cuddle a younger brother or sister.

"Brother, I want to drink milk, can you open it?" The little baby took out his milk box and handed it over.

"Father, I'll open it for you." Xiao Que wanted to take it and open it for the baby. The boy immediately reached out to take the milk box and studied it. He recalled how he put the straw in when he was drinking, "I'll open it for my brother, I will."

The baby's chubby face gave him a more secure and comfortable feeling than the adults in the car. The boy felt more at ease with his younger brother sitting beside him. The tall men in the car would not sell him anywhere else.

"Let their brothers get along well. Although according to the procedure, we can't adopt him, but our family can raise him. He can work after he is healthy. He is so thin that he can't do anything." The foreman saw that the boy was an adult. Yes, but with a childish face, especially in a pair of big eyes, looking at everything is full of stiff fear, shrinking back.It's just that it's hard not to be afraid of the little baby, so let the two children get along with each other.

"Brother will give you a sip. It's sweet. My sister doesn't eat sweets. From now on, the sweet ones will be for both of us." The snack eater smiled mischievously, and put the straw into the boy's mouth.The girl glanced at them and remained silent.

Little children always have a kind of ability to be lovable. The thin boy is panicked by the unpredictable environment around him, but he relaxes after eating a few warm voices.No longer remembering to please others all the time, boldly took a few sips of the milk handed to him by his brother, and said to the little baby, "I can roast sweet potatoes and corn, and the baked ones are delicious and sweet, and I will roast them at home." Give it to my younger brother." The boy showed his true skills, for fear that his lively younger brother would be bored, "I also catch dragonflies and grasshoppers in summer, and they can be roasted to eat, and the thigh meat of grasshoppers is the most delicious."

The food in the boy's mouth was drooling when he heard the snacks, and he shouted to catch him the grasshopper quickly. The grasshopper's thighs had become the most beautiful food in his eyes.

Xiao Que dangled all the way, watching the two boys get closer and closer, the little girl still had a cold face, but the knife didn't move, it can be considered that everyone has made great progress.

When he finally saw the name of the town on the road sign, Xiao Que knew that the town he was looking forward to had finally arrived.

"Xiao Que, we're finally home. Guess which one was built by me in a moment?"

After getting off the expressway, the road leading to the town is made of flat bluestone slabs. The road is not very wide. There are big trees planted beside the road. There are small buildings with different styles on both sides. There are three-story buildings, four-story buildings, and spires. Yes, and domes.

Looking through the low iron fence on the left, it is a small white, fenced yard full of verdant pine trees.Corresponding to the right stands a few small red buildings, and vines grow on the low iron fence. Because of the cold, the leaves have fallen off, but the withered and yellow vines are connected together, which is very lively.

Xiao Que knows that this is the most beautiful garden in every household. Sure enough, the whole town is proud of planting flowers and plants. Entering the town is like entering a small garden.

The car turned a corner, and the wooden sheep pen with the family clearly appeared. "Sheep, lambs, lambs also drink milk!" the baby shouted. In the yard, a fat, snow-white ewe was grazing by the fence, and beside her were two white lambs half-kneeling and sticking their buttocks to their mother. breast milk.

"Yeah, I'll take you to the town to see the lambs. There are calves and pony here. Let's take the baby to touch them." The foreman pointed Xiao Que to the mountains in the distance, "There are fruit trees planted there. There is a small piece of pasture over there, which was contracted by Jiantu back then. At that time, he always wanted to be a cowboy, but now the cows are all raised in the cowshed. He can't do it. gone."

"So you still want to be a cowboy. Cows are not easy to raise. Do you think they can grow up if you send the cows out to graze and drink water every day. Raising cows is really knowledgeable. Only old farmers in our village can raise them well." Otherwise, if a cow gets sick, it will infect a group, and the dead cow will not be sold at all, and there will be a lot of people who lose money." Xiao Mu looked at the pasture surrounded by crooked fences, where the desolate grass was covered by sporadic snow, "It seems that you Didn't grow up."

"Xiaomu should be able to raise cattle, do you want to raise cattle?" The two hooked Xiaomu and kept talking about how to raise cattle, missing the scenery along the way.

"Brother, the four buildings of this house are next to each other." Xiao Que looked at the four small, high fenced platforms in a large courtyard, and the small white balcony could almost climb directly from one to the other, as close as Only sunlight can pass through.

"This is a family. The old lady lives in the front building, and her eldest daughter and son's houses are next to each other in the back. This small building is newly built for his little grandson."

"It's great, the whole family lives together. In the future, the yard won't be filled with children."

"Now there is only one little grandson in the family. Her eldest son has never been married, and her eldest daughter has never been married. A few years ago, she became pregnant suddenly, and people in the village talked about it for a while. It's just that the old lady is so powerful that no one dared to go Let me tell you, in the past few years, everyone has gotten used to the old girls and old bachelors in their family." The foreman introduced the situation of each house to Xiaoque, "Her family rented the land to the group to plant trees, and the annual land rent is just enough for them. life, so the whole family stayed in the town and did not go out to work. When the small shortage stabilized, we would go to each family to deliver food made by ourselves. When the time came, we would go to the old lady’s house to see that there were children in her yard Children are willing to play in the small castle I built, and her little grandson has many companions."

"Both children are not married." Xiao Que was surprised for a moment, looking at the four small houses that are extremely far away, for some reason, he was worried about the marriage of snacks for a moment, but was quickly washed away by the nervousness of having to recognize someone, "It's good for me to make snacks. There should be teaching on TV. I have to learn it again."

"Now it's popular to be single, and DINK is popular when married. Now there are many people who are not married. They all enjoy love and keep love fresh." Xiao Mu left the topic of raising cattle and talked about being single.

"Her son and daughter are not in love, and the matchmaker never goes to see it. In the evening, you can see that the daughter is supporting the old lady, the son is supporting the elder sister, and the little grandson is holding the grandmother's hand. The family of four will meet together. Go out for a walk along the path, and play in the square over there. There are people who come out for a walk and play.”

"Dad, there are many children there." The little baby soon saw the big square with a circular fountain pool in the center.On one side of the square is the auditorium for weekend gatherings, which also doubles as a movie theater, which is the favorite place for young people to go on dates.

"You can play with your friends as soon as you live in the baby." The foreman encourages the baby to play with other children. Children need the experience of living in groups.

"I don't want to play with children." Snack eats his mouth puffed up. He has no experience in playing with other children, and he is very afraid that a group of children will throw stones at him.

"I, I play with my brother." The boy said quickly, he didn't want his brother to play with others, he just wanted his brother to play with him.The boy almost forgot that he was already a working person. Life did not give him much growth experience, and he was still at the age of being locked up in a dark room and starving.

Xiao Que just smiled and listened to the children yelling and talking nonsense. He hoped that the children could do whatever they wanted. Now they don't want to play with other children, maybe they will change their mind tomorrow.

Xiao Que soon noticed the courtyard where the three small buildings were located together. The wall in the middle was dark in color, and the small buildings on both sides were slightly shorter, standing there quietly.

One of them is a light beige three-storey building with long, large and wide windows with column-enclosed balconies.There are two pointed pavilions at the top of the small sides, and the middle terrace should be a large platform garden, "That's it, right, that's my brother's house."

The foreman shook his head and corrected, "It's our house. The one in the middle was built by me and Jiantu. It's the house where my parents live now. The house built by Jiantu over there was designed by him. This is the one designed by my brother." It’s built, and it’s reserved for the wife. I haven’t lived in it yet, and the inside is empty. Wait for Xiao Que to go in and have a look. Let’s decorate it. The town pays attention to the decoration of newlywed houses by yourself. It’s a sweet life, so don’t be afraid of Xiao Que tired."

"I'm not afraid of being tired." Xiao Que heard the newlywed tilted his head, his face became more rosy, his eyes twinkled, "I used to decorate small houses by myself, I'm very good at it."

"I can see how powerful Xiao Que is."

The car finally stopped in front of the courtyard, Xiao Que slowly got out of the car and took a deep breath.The air in the small town is very fresh, and the sun is warmer than other places. Even the snow that covers it makes the small town extraordinarily beautiful.This is where he will live for the rest of his life.
