Except for the indoor toilet that Zhang Xueqing has longed for, there are all the others. Not just electronic ones, but technological ones are good. They also have certain drawbacks, and the wisdom of the older generation, with traces of time and life experience, makes you feel better. Comfortable stay.
"Xueqing is here." He Qiaolan heard the movement of the car and put down what she was doing. Her son had already been invited into the house.
"Auntie's house is a little messy today. Don't mind it. Go sit on the sofa."
"Auntie, if you are right, your home looks very stylish. As soon as I walked in, I felt warm and comfortable."
He Qiaolan was amused by these few words.
"Are you afraid of killing pigs? You guys are a little late. I have already killed one. Food prices have risen too much this year, so I don't want to raise one anymore. There is another one that will be killed soon. Are you interested in seeing it?"
Zhang Xueqing waved her hands hastily. She had seen people killing pigs before. It was quite brutal and smelly. It was still so cold outside, and she didn't want to go out and accept the double torture of body and soul.
Seeing her resistance, He Qiaolan didn't force it. She took some food, put it on the coffee table, told Meng Fansen to take care of it, and then went out to do her work.
"You go and help too. I heard that it takes a lot of people to kill a pig. You don't need to stay here with me."
Meng Fansen didn't know what to talk to Zhang Xueqing. It was a bit awkward for the two of them to sit like this. He borrowed Zhang Xueqing's words and said, "Okay, if you want to go out, let Xinxin accompany you and don't run around."
"Don't worry, I'm not a child."
Meng Fansen looked at her deeply, stood up and left without saying anything.
Zhang Xueqing stood up and looked around the house casually. As soon as she entered the door, there was a kang. Yes, the entire floor was a kang. The soles of her feet were warm. The sleeping kang was inside the partition and was about the same height as the bed.
The furniture in the house looks like it has been used for many years. It is made of pure solid wood and has a bit of a retro feel, but it is very clean. The house is very high and not as short as the house in their village. Only a little sunlight can shine in, making it look like a house. The room was dark,
On the contrary, this house has plenty of light, and the sun shines warmly on people, which is very comfortable.
"Auntie, let's go out and play. There are many children near grandma's house."
Xinxin didn't understand why Zhang Xueqing stared at the things in her grandma's house without saying a word. In her opinion, these things were all hard and ugly. Even the sofa hurt her butt when she sat on it, which was nothing compared to I went to my aunt's house and it was so soft and comfortable.
Hearing this, Zhang Xueqing looked at Xinxin's uninterested face and raised the corners of her mouth slightly. The child didn't have much patience, "Okay, introduce some of your good friends to Auntie."
"Yeah!" His eyes suddenly filled with light.
The big one and the small one were fully armed and went out.
In the yard, everyone was breathing white air, with a layer of white frost hanging on their eyebrows. Such a cold weather did not cover the smiles on everyone's faces. They were busy chatting and laughing.
Just when he saw her, he paused slightly, smiled at her, then turned away and continued chatting.
Zhang Xueqing didn't know anyone, so she nodded in response to anyone who smiled at her. She couldn't see clearly from a distance, so she simply stopped looking. She was pulled by Xinxin all the way out of the yard.
"Auntie, this is so much fun at grandma's house. There are so many children and they can play everywhere."
Zhang Xueqing didn't understand what she meant. She didn't understand what it meant to be able to play everywhere. It seemed that having more children was the key.
Zhang Xueqing didn't look carefully through the car window when she arrived, but now she figured out the location of He Qiaolan's house.
After leaving the yard, there are other households in the village to the right. He Qiaolan's family is the second family at the head of the village. There is another family to the left. After leaving the village, there is a long path. Both sides are owned by farmers. They are also covered by Bai Xue. cover.
Straight ahead is the main road they came on, which leads from north to south and runs close to the mountains.
Xinxin pulled Zhang Xueqing directly out of the village, walking forward as if she had a purpose.
"Isn't there no one here anymore? Are you leaving the village now?" Zhang Xueqing couldn't help but ask.
"Well, over there, there is a river over there, and many people are playing there."
Following the direction of Xinxin's finger, Zhang Xueqing saw several children wearing different colors chasing each other there. She couldn't see clearly from a distance, but if she listened carefully, she could hear the children's hearty laughter.
Along the banker's path, Zhang Xueqing followed Xinxin, moving forward one step at a time. She went too far and the road was still difficult to navigate, so Zhang Xueqing secretly retreated.
However, Xinxin was very enthusiastic at the moment, and she couldn't bear to be less excited. She stood still for a while before moving on.
Only when Zhang Xueqing got closer did she see clearly that five or six children were putting sledges on the ice. Several children were playing with each sledge. Some were pulling and running, some were pushing from behind, and some were sitting on the sledge waving flags and shouting. It was very lively.
"Xinxin doesn't want to play?"
Zhang Xueqing stood on the shore, looked down at the child who had just reached her waist, raised her hand and patted it.
Unexpectedly, Xinxin's head was shaking like a rattle, but her eyes were always staring at the scene not far away, "Xinxin won't go this time."
Oh, what the little girl said is a bit intriguing. Zhang Xueqing smiled understandingly and said, "Go ahead, Auntie is here to accompany you."
"No, Xinxin will just take a look at it for a while. We will go home in a while."
Zhang Xueqing didn't say anything else. She bounced her feet, rested alternately, and watched the children with Xinxin.
Several children changed the way they played. Everyone divided into two teams and stood separately along the river. One person sat on the sledge, and several people worked together to push the sledge to the other side. The other side received the help of the people and collectively pushed it back. .
This will test whether the person sitting on the sledge can grasp the direction well. If someone deviates from the track, he will have to get up and pull the sledge to find the main force.
Zhang Xueqing looked at them for a while. The children were all very capable. She couldn't control the sledge on the ice well, and she might have to crash into the snow nest by the river.
"Auntie, let's go home."
Zhang Xueqing was looking excited. Xinxin pulled Zhang Xueqing's sleeve and raised her head.
"Okay." The two of them turned around and walked back one step at a time along the way they came.
With a "call", Zhang Xueqing hurriedly looked over.
"Ah, help, ah~"
The children who had been having so much fun just now were all stunned. The child on the sledge deviated from the track and slid towards the center of the river. As a result, the ice surface was not frozen, and he and the sledge fell into the cold river. .
When Zhang Xueqing looked over, only the upper body of the child was left struggling on the ice. Several children reacted and immediately ran towards the child who fell into the water.
"Don't move, just stand there, don't move at all."
Zhang Xueqing shouted loudly in that direction with all her strength. Seeing that the children on the ice had stopped, she quickly told Xinxin to go back and find someone.
