Chen Xiyun's modern life

Bring everything to the classroom, and prepare to go home by car immediately after class in the afternoon!

City D is just a small county, and there are quite a few cars going to and from various villages and towns every day, but the frequency and service are definitely not as good as those in big cities.More importantly, for the cars here, the last bus leaves at 5:[-] pm.If it's late, you'll really have to wait until the next day.

The school is also aware of these unspoken rules. Given that there are a large number of dormitories from various towns in D, many people need to drive home every weekend.Therefore, every Friday afternoon, students who are not in the graduation class can leave school one class earlier, just so that they can catch the last bus!

After school that day, Chen Xiyun took her things and stepped out of the gate, and immediately found that Uncle Three was already waiting there.

In fact, during this period of time, the third uncle should still be at work, but he was really worried about his niece, so he specially asked for leave to pick him up!Chen Xiyun didn't know about this at the beginning, but her mother discovered it by accident.Although this is really not a big deal, the kindness is really rare!For this reason, Chen Xiyun has always been very grateful for the friendship of the third uncle.

Under the escort of the third uncle, Chen Xiyun boarded the car home very smoothly!As soon as I said goodbye to my uncle, the car set off.

Township cars in the 90s are definitely not as good as those in the 21st century!Of course, the roads that cars travel on are old and even potholed!

Thus, Chen Xiyun once again found that she still had something to get used to!

The dilapidated minibus is actually not big, but it is full of people!First of all, the gasoline-smelling compartment is very frustrating, and then the frequent throwing of the car when passing through those not-so-rare potholes is even more unbearable for many people.

No, the car has only been driving for 10 minutes, and some aunts are already throwing up!

In this situation, Chen Xiyun felt that if she wanted to go home to see her mother frequently in the future, she had to get used to it! ! !

Fortunately, now Chen Xiyun knows martial arts and knows how to hold one's breath!No, just as she got into the car, she began to hold her breath, and then slowly leaned on the back of the chair with her eyes closed to rest her mind. It would be perfect if the occasional vomiting sounds around her could also disappear.

The car puffed away for about nine or ten minutes, and finally arrived at the entrance of the village where Chen Xiyun's family is located.

"Ayun~" Just as he got off the car, Chen Xiyun, who was still a little dizzy, heard someone calling himself.

"Hey!" Chen Xiyun turned around, it turned out to be Mother Chen!

"Grandma~" Chen Xiyun was very excited, and tears began to accumulate in his eyes again.

"Mom, I miss you so much!!!" In order to avoid her mother's suspicion, Chen Xiyun finally held back her tears and didn't let the tears have a chance to stay.However, Chen Xiyun still couldn't bear the excitement and gave her mother a hug! "Why did you come out?"

"Your uncle just called and said that you got on the bus at 5 o'clock and asked me to pick you up at the side of the road!" Mother Chen also didn't see her daughter for more than two weeks, and she was thinking too hard!

However, people of their generation are not happy to talk about 'love, miss'!Today, my daughter is enthusiastic like never before. She is a bit overwhelmed, but she is very happy in her heart. This is really a contradiction!

"Yes, when I get home later, I have to call my uncle first, and tell him that I have arrived home safely, lest he worry about me!"

"It should be! Let's go home!"

"okay!"

Walking on the criss-crossing rice paddies, Chen Xiyun happily followed behind her mother, chatted with her from time to time, and occasionally greeted the oncoming 'acquaintances'. Or light cooking smoke curls up, the taste of home, the taste of happiness, rushing towards the face, the paradise on earth, in fact, it is nothing more than that! ! !

After walking for about 10 minutes, Mother Chen and Chen Xiyun arrived home.

Their house was built by Chen Xiyun’s grandfather who went out to work and saved money when he was young. It is a three-story red brick house with a floor area of ​​more than 300 square meters. The one-story bungalow is dedicated to the kitchen.Although no cement or tiles were used to decorate the appearance of the house, at that time, in their village, although this not-so-beautiful house was not the only one, it was still ranked second.

Chen Xiyun's father was actually the eldest son, but because the ranking in their village was based on genealogy at that time, and because the son of Bo Gong's family who died young was born before Chen's father, Chen's father was ranked second. Chen Xiyun's uncle and This is the reason why the aunts all call Mother Chen the second sister-in-law.

Chen Xiyun and his family now occupy one-third of the first floor and two-thirds of the second floor of the house.They are one hall and two rooms on the left of the first floor and two halls and three rooms on the second floor.

Chen Xiyun's third uncle occupied the right side of the whole building, that is, one-third of each floor, and the remaining hall and a small room on the first floor and two-thirds of the third floor belonged to the fourth uncle.

As for Grandpa Chen who paid to build this house, in this house, he actually got a small room on the first floor.

Is it because Dad Chen and his three brothers are too scumbags?no!

The custom in Chen Xiyun's town is that fathers save money to build a house for their son and marry a wife.This is the current situation of Chen Xiyun's family!

In fact, Grandpa Chen still has a clay-roofed house at the foot of the mountain, which was the house his biological father gave him to marry his wife.However, now that the family has a new house, it is of course impossible to go back to live in that dilapidated earthen house.

Back then, Grandpa Chen saved his own money to build a beautiful building for his three sons in the village at that time. After all three sons got married and had children, he allocated the houses to avoid conflicts in the future.

The old man felt that he didn't need much space, so he only reserved a small room for himself.

However, in fact, there are quite a lot of vacant rooms in the house. If the elderly want to live, no matter where it is, the juniors will not be in doubt.Today, Grandma Chen lives in a room on the second floor of Chen Xiyun's house.

Stepping into the house, Chen Xiyun first went to every corner of the house to greet the busy family members, let everyone know that he was back, and then went to the second floor to call the third uncle to report that he was safe, and then went to the kitchen to help Chen Mom prepares dinner.

It is said to help, but in fact, 14-year-old Chen Xiyun can't cook!

Chen Xiyun is the luckiest girl in the whole village!Everyone in the village said so.

When Chen Xiyun was born, Father Chen had already left the impoverished mountain village to work outside.She grew up with Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen. When she was a child, she couldn't even recognize that the two couples who always brought her good things that appeared every Spring Festival were her parents!

However, although Lu Xiyun lacked the presence of his parents in his childhood, he didn't live a miserable life.Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen both know how to raise children.

Grandpa Chen looks serious, but he is actually an old urchin who often makes farm snacks to make little Chen Xiyun happy.

And Grandma Chen is a very kind grandma.In fact, when Chen Xiyun was just born, patriarchal Chen's father didn't want this daughter because of family planning, and he still wanted a son!However, Grandma Chen insisted that Chen Xiyun be kept.But Chen Xiyun's cousin, the eldest daughter of her third uncle, was not so lucky. She was sent to her grandmother's house when she was born, and she never had the chance to return to her own house until she died.Therefore, Chen Xiyun had a special affection for Grandma Chen since she was a child, and she was extremely dependent on and liked this grandma.

Under the care of the two elders, Chen Xiyun thrived.Moreover, because Father Chen is capable, he has been able to remit money back to support the family, and Grandpa Chen, although he is not young, is growing old and strong. He is very capable in doing farm work and so on!

Although Chen Xiyun is a girl, she doesn't need to be like other girls of the same age in the village. She has been assigned farm work within her ability since she was sensible.One of Chen Xiyun's distant cousins ​​already went to fetch water for the family when she was only seven years old.

In the village at that time, Chen Xiyun seemed to be the only girl who was not required to work since she was a child.Other girls were forced to go to the fields by their families, but Chen Xiyun felt ashamed when she saw the two elderly people working hard in the fields every day after she became sensible, so she took the initiative to go to the fields. But they are praised and loved by the elders, and other girls of the same age in the village are always lamenting that the same people are different!

When she reached the age of studying, Chen Xiyun showed a higher academic ability than the average peers. With excellent grades, even Chen's father, who has not paid much attention to his daughter, began to have high hopes for this daughter, hoping that her daughter can do well in her studies in the future. To be able to benefit in the future is to promise her daughter that she will not have to go to the fields to do farm work, or even do housework at home, and just concentrate on studying.

Therefore, when Chen Xiyun was 14 years old, except for washing her own clothes (needed by the boarding students), she really didn't do much housework.

Cooking is also a technical job, and 14-year-old Chen Xiyun must not understand it.However, according to my mother's request, it is possible to put the firewood in the stove to burn. After all, when she was young, she often changed grandma's stove, and it is really not difficult.

The two mother and daughter were talking and working in the kitchen. Mother Chen is a good housewife with quick hands and feet. Today, her daughter volunteered to help, and a delicious meal was prepared quickly.
