This is a typical courtyard of Tian Futang’s family in northern Shaanxi.
The five-hole cave dwelling is very impressive.
There is also a small garden in the middle of the yard.
After hearing what Tian Futang said, a woman came out of a cave dwelling on the side, wearing an apron and holding several teacups in her hands.
When they arrived at the cave in the middle, they placed a cup in front of Yan Jiecheng and others.
He said: "There is no good tea in our place. This is what his second father brought last time. Please try it."
Yan Jiecheng and the other two hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law."
Sun Yuting also got a cup of tea and said happily: "This can be regarded as a blessing from the leader."
Tian Futang hadn't noticed just now, but now Sun Yuting was talking, and then he realized that he hadn't left yet.
Said: "Eshuo Yuting, shouldn't you go back?"
"Don't worry, I have nothing to do anyway. I'm here to accompany the leader."
Tian Futang was a little speechless and said angrily: "Hey, you are such a stupid coward. Why are you sitting here talking?
The party secretary Er cannot accompany the leader from the capital, so I want you, a bastard, to accompany him.
Are you the branch secretary or am I the branch secretary?
The leader is a friend of Erjia Fujun. Does he want you to accompany him?
See if I can give you back, you will become the master of the Shang'er family.
People say that dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and Ejia Fujun is a cadre, and his friends are all leaders.
I want you, a farmer, to accompany me. Do you have enough status?
Yuting, listen to my advice and learn more from your brother.
Be an honest farmer. "
When Yan Jiecheng and Lao Xie saw Tian Futang training people, they did not hesitate and watched with great interest.
Through their contact with each other, they both knew that Tian Fujun was a simple person.
Unexpectedly, his brother Tian Futang was a bit mean.
He was really merciless when he spoke.
Only Tian Futang's mother-in-law felt that this hurt Sun Yuting's face, so she pulled Tian Futang from time to time.
Tian Futang was a little impatient when he was pulled, and said: "Why are you pulling me?
Hu Qiu was not doing his job for a day, and Sui Wa's mother-in-law became pregnant, and he didn't know how to help Sui Wa.
As the branch secretary, why should I say a few words to him? "
Aunt Tian Futang didn't reply. She smiled awkwardly at Yan Jiecheng and Lao Xie with ugly faces.
Then he pulled Sun Yuting and said, "Your cousin Fu is straight-tempered. Don't worry about it. I see your brother is trying to build a wall. Why don't you hurry up and help."
Seeing that he was not welcome in Tian Futang, Sun Yuting walked down the steps and said, "Then I'm going to help Brother Er. Brother Fu, you have a good chat with the leaders from the capital."
After saying that, he lit the cigarette that Lao Xie had brought in, took a puff, and said, "Don't tell me, the cigarettes in this capital are just different from those in Huangyuan."
After that, he went out.
Yan Jiecheng almost lost his temper. Sun Yuting was a talent.
This smoke is obviously produced locally, not from the capital city.
Tian Futang was helpless when he saw this.
He said to Yan Jiecheng: "It's a joke to you.
That's what this country boy is like. If you try to reason with him, no one will listen to these idiots. They will only listen after being scolded by some scoundrels. "
Yan Jiecheng smiled and said: "Brother Fu, we have visited a lot of villages these days. This kind of thing is no longer strange."
Without Sun Yuting, everyone was talking happily.
After a while, the family routine started.
Tian Futang asked: "Xiao Yan, are you in your twenties this year? Have you found your mother-in-law?"
When Lao Xie heard this, he quickly picked up the water glass to hide his smile.
Yan Jiecheng also smiled bitterly after hearing this.
In the past six months, all the weather and weather have been spent doing outdoor work.
In addition, it is not very adaptable to the northwest climate.
His skin has become dark and rough now, and he is no longer the white-faced scholar he used to be.
Shengsheng looks six or seven years older than before.
Therefore, he did not explain his age and said with a smile: "Not yet."
"Oh, I think it would be better to find an aunt as soon as possible.
What do you think of the girls here? Is there anything you like? "
Seeing Yan Jiecheng's embarrassed face, Lao Xie was already feeling uncomfortable.
Fortunately, he has received special training.
At this time, a four or five-year-old girl was playing in the yard. She must be Tian Runye.
Only then did Yan Jiecheng remember, and he quickly took out a packet of candy from his bag and handed it to Aunt Tian Futang.
"Sister-in-law, these are some candies we prepared for you. I met Brother Fujun in Huangyuan some time ago. I heard that you have a baby at home, so I brought some."
"Oh. What are you doing?" Runye's mother asked awkwardly.
Then he looked at Tian Futang.
Tian Futang glanced at her and said, "Take it, it's all about the friendship between two brothers."
It's just a bag of candy, and it's not like Tian Futang can't afford it.
Besides, his brother had already told him about the situation of these two people.
A bag of candy doesn't care about that person's status.
This favor is also for Fu Jun's sake.
It’s not like I took it for free, I just need to treat it well when it’s over.
Yan Jiecheng: Don't talk nonsense, I care.
Besides, this is really not for Tian Fujun's sake.
But for the sake of Tong from the Western Region.
"Runye, Runye, come here quickly. Your uncle brought you the candy. Thank you uncle quickly." Runye's mother shouted while holding the candy.
Xiao Runye took the candy and sweetly shouted: "Thank you, uncle."
Seeing this, Tian Futang smiled lovingly and said, "Hey, you young women were all born in honey nests. You have never experienced hardship, and you still have sweets to eat."
When Lao Xie saw that Tian Runye was about the same age as his daughter, he also thought of his home in the capital.
Looking a little downcast, Yan Jiecheng patted his arm and said, "Lao Xie, you miss your daughter. Don't worry, I will definitely ask you to go back after the new year."
Seeing Lao Xie's expression of disbelief, as if he was Zhou Bapi, Yan Jiecheng said angrily: "It's true."
Lao Xie became happy and said with a smile: "Then I will thank the director in advance."
A few people were talking, and Runye's mother went to prepare the meal.
A burst of words came from the courtyard: "Ru said Tian Da Party Secretary, here is the leader. Doesn't Er, the deputy party secretary, have the right to know?"
Several people looked towards the yard, and a middle-aged man with a story written on his face walked in.
Tian Futang didn't answer either.
Yan Jiecheng and the others can't do it even more.
When the middle-aged man entered the cave, Tian Futang said, "You, the head of Jinjiawan, why are you here in Erwu?"
The man said angrily: "Secretary Tian, you did not inform the leader of the reception. I had no choice but to come by myself."
Tian Futang smoked a cigarette but did not entertain him. He said, "Eshuo Junshan, these are all friends of the Ejia Fujun, not the leaders from above. Are you listening to that Hu Qiu's nonsense again?"
Yan Jiecheng knew who this person was as soon as he heard it.
Jin Junshan from Shuangshui Village is also the deputy party secretary.
Jin Junshan said sheepishly: "Didn't I hear Sun Yuting say that two big leaders came to our village, so we just rushed here."
It turned out that Sun Yuting left Tian Futang's house and did not help his brother put up the wall.
Instead, they spread the word about Yan Jiecheng and Lao Xie everywhere.
Bragging about how much he talked to the leader.
Tian Futang said angrily: "Hey, you. You dare to listen to Sun Yuting's nonsense."
Jin Junshan saw that Yan Jiecheng and Lao Xie were indeed dressed unusually. They were much better dressed than the cadres in their commune. They looked like big leaders at first glance.
Although he was a little doubtful after hearing Tian Futang's words, Jin Junshan was determined not to leave now. Who knew what Tian Futang was up to.
Maybe he is planning to trick Jin's family again.
