Hua County is located in the east of Qinchuan, eight hundred miles away.It borders Huayin in the east, Weinan in the west, Qinling Mountains in the south, and the Weihe River in the north.It got its name because it is located at the foot of Shaohua Mountain, the sister mountain of Huashan Mountain.

Huaxian County is 85 kilometers away from Xi'an, only 30 kilometers away from Huashan Mountain, where Hanyu wrote books and Chenxiang rescued his mother, and more than 40 kilometers away from the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang and the Museum of Terracotta Warriors and Horses.Hua County has four business cards: "The Capital of China's Molybdenum Industry, China's Pollution-free Vegetable Base, China's Shaohua Mountain, and China's Shadow Puppet Township".Molybdenum reserves rank third in the world and first in Asia, and foreign exchange earnings from exports account for 1/5 of Shaanxi.

Hua County has a wealth of traditional customs, such as spring prayers for autumn, New Year's festivals, temple fairs on social days, disaster relief, celebration of the new year, weddings and funerals, and other activities are the soil on which shadow puppetry depends.Numerous historical records and materials prove that world movies originated from China——Chinese movies originated from Shaanxi——Shaanxi movies originated from Huazhou.

However, in any case, Hua County is an agricultural county.

Because it was the last bus, after passing Weinan, all you could see from the window was the hazy Qinling Mountains in the distance.The strong, ripe smell of corn outside the car window fills my heart and lungs.Generally, the autumn harvest is around the National Day.

At the county bus station, I blocked a taxi and drove towards the village.

At the door of the house, unexpectedly, a white Passat was parked at the door.

When I got into the house, I wished I could get out immediately.

It turned out that it was Lao Zuo who was talking with Dad.

I have an indescribable feeling in my heart that this old leftist has found my home.

To be honest, when I saw Lao Zuo sitting on the edge of the Kang in my house, I felt like dying.

Seeing me stepping through the door, everyone in the room was very pleasantly surprised.

Dad couldn't hide his excited smile and said, "You son, you still know you're coming back. When did you recognize such a good brother-in-law, you didn't say anything. Your brother-in-law said that you were on a business trip, and he was afraid that there was something missing at home. Come and see."

The eldest brother and sister-in-law, the second brother and the second sister-in-law helped me carry the things in my hand.Nephews and nieces were busy rummaging through my handbags to see which one was his.

When Lao Zuo saw me, his eyes began to flash like a thief, and he hurriedly jumped down from the edge of the kang, with a smile on his face, that kind of smile had too many ingredients.

He said: "Xiaojun, I know you are busy, so you can't come back. No, tomorrow is National Day, and there will be a seven-day long holiday. I will come to see uncle and home. I am your brother-in-law. So you didn't I mentioned it to my uncle and my family."

What Lao Zuo said shut my mouth tightly, and he also found a suitable excuse for himself to come to my house.

What else can I do, scold him?hit him?As the saying goes: Don't hit the door-to-door customers for a reason.

If I have a slightly unkind language towards him, there is a possibility that I will be cheated.

However, I was so aggrieved that tears almost came out.

I just nodded lightly to Lao Zuo.

The second sister-in-law said: "Xiaojun, you haven't eaten yet, brother Gan just stepped through the door, I'll cook for you right now, we have already eaten."

Dad smiled cheerfully on the side, alas, an honest farmer.

I opened the suitcase, and Lao Zuo rushed over to help me take out the presents inside.Seeing no one was paying attention, I stepped on him under the table, right on top of his feet.

Lao Zuo bared a bit, just in time for Dad to see it.

Dad smiled and scolded: "You are such a big man, why do you still look like you don't have eyes? His brother, it doesn't matter, come and see me."

Lao Zuo hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, Xiaojun must be too hungry to stand still."

Lao Zuo's cold humor made me even more disgusted with him.

Distributing the nephew's stationery, toys and snacks to them, the niece Lan Lan said: "Third Dad, that uncle bought us a lot of things, including food, and a lot of exquisite soft leather books. That uncle is really kind." She Pointing to the old left.

But Dongdong said: "KFC's burgers are delicious, and there are fried chicken drumsticks."

Lanlan is eight years old, and Dongdong is four years old. They are the two children of the second brother.

The eldest brother's son has just been working in other places, and Xiaowen is in the third year of junior high school.

I frightened them: "Take your things home, put them back and come back again, be careful that the melon at the opposite door will come and grab them if they see them."

Qiangqiang is mentally handicapped, ten years old.He often snatched things from children younger than him and then disappeared.

The two children hurriedly packed their belongings into plastic bags and left the house.Tiptoe when going out.

Only Dad, Lao Zuo, and I are left at home.

Dad said: "His brother, you are chatting, I will go out and clean up the corn in the yard. To make room for it, I have to go to the field to harvest autumn tomorrow, and see if I can occupy the space. After a while, the second sister-in-law will eat it is done."

Lao Zuo said: "Uncle, you rest, I'll go, you've been tired all day." Then he went out.

He is very smart and knows that I don't want to talk to him now.

He thought, I will slowly follow his will.

Dad was also busy following out.

Dad has never been with elder brother and sister-in-law, but when eating, second sister-in-law brings the meal.They are all separated, and the houses are all next to each other, which is also convenient.

My dad and I live in this courtyard, three one-story bungalows.

The night slowly deepened, and it was a little cold.Lao Zuo was helping to pile up the corn, and at the same time asked Dad this and that. I could see that Dad was happy that I suddenly had such a careful, considerate and hardworking brother. He must be thinking: My little army It's a good life, and there are noble people to help.

I didn't make a sound, and slowly picked up the corn and threw it on the pile, like a soulless leather shadow, with very mechanical movements.

The dim light in the yard shone on Lao Zuo's excited face, and on Dad's cheerful mouth with a pipe in his mouth.

It didn't take long for the second sister-in-law to hold the wooden tray and shouted with a smile: "Everyone, wash your hands quickly, Dad, you can accompany them to have a drink or two."

Lao Zuo said: "Thank you, sister-in-law. The second brother, the eldest brother, and the children are not here?"

The second sister-in-law smiled and said, "Peasant, I won't be able to attend the banquet. Besides, there will be farm work tomorrow, so I'll take a break. The child is happily playing with the things you two brought back. I don't have time to come over."

I knew that the second sister-in-law must have blocked the driving of the two elder brothers: she was from the city, and she didn't come to see us, and it was too late, so she asked her to eat and rest quickly.

My second sister-in-law is a bright, sensible and quick-witted woman.

"Brother Zuo, don't dare to call me sister-in-law. I am Xiaojun's sister-in-law, but I am younger than you. You are very polite. I will call you old. Women don't want to be old all their lives." The second sister-in-law laughed.

Lao Zuo followed suit with a smile; "Okay, then you will treat me like the Hong family from now on, and you are also my younger brother and sister."

The second sister-in-law said, "You guys are eating and drinking, and I'll make your beds."

Turning around, she went into the next side room.

After washing their hands, Dad and Lao Zuo pushed back and forth and sat down.Dad sat cross-legged on the kang, and Lao Zuo was still sitting on the edge of the kang.I pulled a stool and sat on the side of the Kang.

On the kang table, there are two small dishes, a bottle of Xifeng wine, and three bowls of big knife noodles.There are also three tender boiled corns and a bowl of steaming sweet potatoes with a sweet aroma.

The dish is mixed with three shreds, and a plate of green bamboo shoots fried with small crispy pork.Although not rich, it is also exquisite.

The old Zuo shouted: "Second sister-in-law, you are such a crafter, come and eat too."

The second sister-in-law was sweeping the bed next door and said loudly: "Peasant, what skills do you have? People in the city don't make jokes. If you can eat it, I will secretly laugh."

It seems that Lao Zuo really impressed my family with his hospitality.
