Not bad for money and Grandet

When Kang Jiahui heard that they were going to play in the countryside, she was very envious. Luo Zizhao said that she could go with her if she wanted to. Kang Jiahui weighed it up, but in the end she didn’t go. She just went to work and doesn’t know anything. It’s not too bad to ask for leave now. It is suitable, and the work is what she likes very much.

Kang Jiayin was worried about her sister's safety, so she bought her a cheap domestic mobile phone before leaving for easy contact.Jiahui was reluctant to spend money, and wanted to buy an old-fashioned push-button mobile phone, as long as she could make calls.Kang Jiayin thinks it is better to use a smart phone. Now that it is the Internet age, it is much more convenient to have a smart phone. You can make calls, chat on WeChat, and you can also look up information and understand information.

Luo Zizhao's great-aunt married into the countryside of Huizhou. Although Huizhou's industry has developed very well in recent years, the area where the great-aunt's family lived has not yet been developed and is still a rural area. After the development of S City, Grandpa gave this old sister a lot of support. Most of Luo Zizhao's uncles and aunts started businesses with the help of his family, and lived a very good life.

The reason why Luo Zizhao wanted to go to his aunt was because her home was very close to the famous scenic spot Luofu Mountain. In his memory, there were longan and lychees all over the mountains, criss-crossing rivers and ponds, and rolling green mountains. It was like a paradise.He wanted to use the excuse of social practice to play for a few days and relax, and let Kang Jiayin relax by the way.

Luo Wenlong personally drove the four children there.Luo Zizhao was very excited along the way, his current mood was like a clear sky in July, with white clouds floating in the blue sky, soft and beautiful, and he never stopped whistling and laughing.

The other three people are similar to him, except that Kang Jiayin is more stable, Jiao Lanyi and Kang Jiahua are also fussing all the time, these two are talking nonsense, chattering non-stop along the way, making Luo Wenlong amuse I laughed out loud and felt a lot younger.

Luo Wenlong was very surprised that his son brought a girl with him, could it be his girlfriend?He couldn't help secretly looking at Jiao Lanyi, he was a beautiful child with delicate features, but his hair was a little short, and he was said to be excellent in character and learning.Luo Wenlong was very satisfied, and was also surprised that his son's friends were all such excellent and outstanding people. After being close to Zhu Zhechi, after his son and Kang Jiayin were at the same table, the people he knew were of different grades. Of course he was happy in his heart. Friends are even better.

The weather was beautiful along the way, and there was a shower of rain. After the rain, a dazzling rainbow appeared in the sky, and there was a faint neon on the rainbow.A few children who lived in the city for a long time and rarely saw rainbows shouted with excitement, and quickly took out their mobile phones to take pictures and videos. The trip to the countryside has just begun, and they encountered such beautiful things. Everyone's expectations for this trip are even higher.

The car dealership arrived at my aunt's house in two hours.The rural architecture in Guangdong is very distinctive, with black tiles and whitewashed walls, and the houses are like a continuous stretch, because a village is usually of the same clan, with the ancestral hall as the central axis, and the houses expand to both sides.My aunt had many sons, and the old house couldn’t fit in. The brothers rebuilt a new house on the edge of the village. The two-story building also has black tiles and whitewashed walls, which retains the traditional features. The house is bright and grand without losing the tradition.

My cousin's house is very spacious, and most of them are vacant. Most of my cousins ​​are not at home and only come back during the holidays.Only the third cousin is still farming at home, and lives in the countryside with his aunt. The rest of the cousins ​​have all gone to the city, some have shops, some have factories, and they have bought houses in counties or cities.The third cousin who stayed in the country did not have a bad life. He contracted a large orchard and ponds to plant and breed at home. The scale is not small, and his annual income is at least hundreds of thousands.

The yard is spacious and clean. My uncle took good care of it and planted a lot of flowers and plants. There is also a fenced vegetable field beside the yard. Big white geese and colorful big roosters are pacing in the yard proudly. The old hen leads a brood The fluffy little yellow chicken "clucked and clucked" to plan food under the flowers, a big yellow orange cat was sleeping on a stone bench under the banana tree, and a big black dog quickly circled around the feet of the guests, full of excitement. The breath of life, several children feel novelty and joy, this is really a paradise-like existence.

My aunt couldn't help but smile from ear to ear when she saw Luo Zizhao. She was older than her grandfather, and she had been farming in the countryside all year round. She looked much more vicissitudes than her grandfather, but she was very energetic and kind, and kept praising Luo Zizhao and his friends. , Said they all look pretty.

Luo Zizhao smiled politely: "Thank you, aunt, we have caused you trouble."

"You child, what trouble is there, I'm afraid you won't come to play. You live in your second uncle's house, and every room in his house has air conditioning." The aunt led them to settle down.

The houses of the four cousins ​​are connected together to form a yard, with only a gap in the south. They live in the house of the second uncle who faces south. The house is not exposed to the sun in the morning and evening, only at noon It's cooler.No one was at the second uncle's house, and the whole house was empty. My aunt helped clean it every now and then. This time I knew they were coming, and there were three or four people, so they cleaned and scrubbed them in advance.

The exterior of the house is very traditional, but the decoration inside the room is no different from that in the city. The children quickly adapted to it. Jiao Lanyi still felt a little regretful: "I thought I could live on the carved wooden bed like the one shown on TV, but I didn't expect it to be Simmons bed. .”

Jiao Lanyi is a girl, so naturally she has a separate room, Kang Jiayin and his brother live in one, and Luo Zizhao alone.When Luo Zizhao walked into his room, he thought that if they didn't come, maybe he could share a room with Kang Jiayin, but he just thought about it, so what if he lived in the same room?

Luo Wenlong shouted outside: "Azhao, we are going to pick lychees, will you go?"

Luo Zizhao immediately became excited when he heard this: "Okay, okay! Let's go, Kang Jiayin, go pick lychees."

As soon as those few heard about picking lychees, they all ran out quickly.Lychee is a common fruit in Guangdong. It is common in the roadsides and parks of City S. However, there are not many opportunities to pick lychees by hand. When Jiao Lan was young, she went to the suburban orchard with her parents to pick lychees. Rarely, Kang Jiayin had the experience of picking lychees, but Kang Jiahua had never.

Third Cousin said: "Go and get the baskets yourself. There are not many lychees now, but there are many longan and yellow-skinned fruits. It is the ripe season. You can pick whatever you like."

Luo Zizhao and the others hurriedly carried a basket and a pair of scissors, and set off to the orchard.I still need to drive to the orchard, because the orchard is a little far from home, and it would be fatal to walk there on such a day, but fortunately, there is a car.

The cement road in the countryside is paved to every household, and even the orchard is directly connected to the cement road. When they entered the orchard, they only saw the lush lychee trees, but did not see the lychee. The third cousin said: "The lychee is mainly grown in May and June. There are very few mature and late-maturing varieties, and only the variety of hanging green. I bought a few four-generation hanging greens from Zengcheng, and they are alive. They also bear fruit this year, but the fruit is not as good as that in Zengcheng. , the taste is worse than that of ordinary lychees. It’s just that the yield is very low, and the reason is that the soil and water are not acclimatized.”

Luo Wenlong said with a smile: "How can I say it is hanging green, a noble among lychees. As you know, there is an old hanging green tree in Zengcheng, which has a history of hundreds of years. In the past, the fruit it produced was specially paid to the palace. Yes, it still bears fruit now. In 02, a lychee was photographed for more than 50 yuan. The 02 yuan in 50 was equivalent to a house in S city, and a lychee was equivalent to a house. Tut tut!"

The children gasped when they heard this. This is too exaggerated.Luo Zizhao said: "Damn! It's too extravagant to eat a house for one bite. I don't think it's necessary at all. Isn't it just a piece of lychee, and it's not an elixir of life."

The third uncle laughed: "It is a status to eat. There is a reason why it is expensive, because it is the only remaining mother tree, and it produces dozens of grains a year, and it is very edible. Wealth is expensive. We can only eat some of the second generation, third generation and fourth generation, and this is not cheap, if it is not grown by ourselves, who would buy that to eat."

They crossed a large lychee forest, and finally saw the legendary hanging green in the center of the garden. Ordinary lychees have red shells after they are ripe, and there is an obvious green line on the red shell of hanging green, which connects the whole lychee shell. Divided into two, hence the name Hanging Green.

Luo Zizhao said: "I don't look any different from ordinary lychees."

The third cousin said: "Pick it and taste it and you will know." He cut a few lychees, and each of them picked one.

Everyone peeled off the shell and tasted it. It is really different from ordinary lychees. It is not full of juice like other lychees. It tastes crisp and delicious, very sweet and has a different fragrance.

Luo Wenlong said: "Hanging green is indeed a treasure among lychees."

The third cousin said: "I was going to pick some and send them to my uncle to eat. Brother Long, you're here, and you happened to bring some back, so I won't send them."

"What to give, keep it and sell it for money." Luo Wenlong was polite.

The third cousin smiled and said, "What are you selling for? It's just a few trees. I didn't plan to sell them. I kept them for myself. Let's pick them. Let's go pick longan and yellow fruit after picking lychees."

Luo Zizhao's hands were itchy for a long time, and when he heard about the lychees, he quickly put down his basket and reached out to pick the lychees. Kang Jiayin hesitated for a moment, seeing that Luo Wenlong had also started to pick the lychees, he reached out to pick the lychees from a higher place.Jiao Lanyi and Kang Jiahua had already walked around the tree in circles, looking for a shorter place to pick lychees.

After picking two lychee trees, they went to pick longan. The longan just happened to be ripe, and the trees were full of small yellow balls hanging down. They looked very gratifying.The yellow-skin fruit is also exuding an attractive aroma. This kind of fruit has a shorter shelf life than lychees. Except for the place of origin, people in other places can rarely eat it.The round yellow-skin fruit is sweet, the oval-shaped one is sweet and sour, and the heart-shaped one is sour. The sweet yellow-skin fruit grown by my cousin is mainly large and round. When you peel it and put it in your mouth, it is sweet and juicy, quite delicious. tasty.

This morning, they picked and ate in the orchard, satisfying their addiction to picking fruit.They kept a small part of the fruits they picked for themselves, and most of them were brought back by Luo Wenlong. This was what my uncle insisted on giving. Every time Luo Wenlong came over, the farm’s local products were indispensable. In addition to fruits, there were also native chickens. , native eggs and so on.Luo Zizhao was ashamed to see his father and the ghosts entering the village to search his uncle's things, so he ran to enjoy the shade under the banana tree in the yard.

There are a few big mango trees and longan trees in the yard with thick trunks. My cousin installed two hammocks on the trees for my cousins ​​to play with. They just happened to go to the second uncle’s house in Shangri these two days. So there are only a few children in the family.At the moment, the two hammocks are occupied by Kang Jiahua and Jiao Lanyi respectively, enjoying the cool and taking a nap.

Kang Jiayin and Luo Zizhao were lying on the mat. Although it was a concrete floor, the ground was quite cool because it was shaded by the leaves. They sat comfortably on their phones.

The aunt put the sugar water she had boiled on the round stone table, and said, "Azhao, you are here to eat sugar water. You two take a nap and go back to sleep in the house. Turn on the air conditioner, and the ground is cold. You are not used to sleeping. I'll catch a cold."

Luo Zizhao said: "I just had my fill, so we don't need to eat. We feel very comfortable, so we sleep here. It's not as cool as outside."

The third cousin who was packing Luo Wenlong said: "Tomorrow I will buy a summer bed and put it under the tree, and then I will buy two hammocks." Usually he also likes to take a nap under the tree, and the summer mat is his exclusive.

"I think I want it." My aunt looked at it with a banana fan and said with a smile, "Then I'll put the sugar water here, and you can eat it if you want."

Luo Wenlong finally packed the trunk of the car and told Luo Zizhao: "Azhao, I'm going back. You have fun here, don't be too naughty, and don't cause trouble for aunt and cousin. Be careful and don't go to the pond to take a bath."

"Got it, goodbye, old man! Be careful on the road!" Luo Zizhao sat up and watched old man drive away.

Kang Jiayin also got up to say hello and see him off.After the car left, Luo Zizhao lay down again. Kang Jiayin looked at him and lay down too.

The afternoon sun shines on the dense canopy, and occasionally a few points leak through the gaps in the branches and leaves, and fall on the mat, which does not make people feel hot.Cicada puffed out his belly in the bushes and shouted "Zhizhi-zhizhi-" and decorated the emptiness of the summer afternoon.

Luo Zizhao was dozed off by the cicada, and the phone in his hand suddenly slipped down and hit his chin.He opened his eyes in pain, woke up a little, grabbed his phone and pressed the ho button, exited the video, glanced at Kang Jiayin beside him, he was still watching military news.Luo Zizhao reached out and poked Kang Jiayin's armpit, muttering, "The ground is a bit hard, go inside and get me a pillow."

Kang Jiayin turned to look at him, took out the arm that was under his head, and laid it flat on the mat: "Sleep here."

Luo Zizhao glanced at it, then narrowed his eyes with a smile, raised his head, and laid his head on it unceremoniously.Kang Jiayin saw that he was sleeping comfortably, but it was not so convenient for him to look at his mobile phone, so he put down his mobile phone, closed his eyes and fell asleep.The sound of cicadas echoes in my ears, but it is the most beautiful lullaby in the world.
