"Dad! Come into the house!" Chen Mo said. In fact, in Western Qin, more people call their fathers "big", but it depends on habits. Here in Chenjiacun, everyone is basically called 'Dad', or Dad. Chen Mo is always called dad in his family.
His father looked at Chen Mo, sighed deeply, threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, nodded, stood up, and returned to the house together.
The parents were happy when their son came back. Although some bad things happened right after he came back, it would be nice if they could solve them.
His parents helped put the luggage in the house. It was not that Chen Mo couldn't carry it by himself, but it was a sign of concern and love, so he followed his parents.
My mother quickly greeted me and ordered some soup noodles, and returned home late at night. No matter whether I ate or not, my parents were always thinking about it. So before Chen Mo had finished washing up, a bowl of hot noodles with two poached eggs on top had been placed on the table.
The food at home is still delicious. People who work hard outside just want to eat the food cooked by their mother when they come home. Chen Mo's nose felt a little sour while he was eating. After several years away from home, it still felt good to be back.
After he finished eating, he took out the gifts he bought for his parents and rested first because it was late. Rural people are very particular about going to bed early and getting up early, so they all go to bed early. I noticed that my parents didn't seem to be in a good mood, and they might not have responded yet, so I didn't say anything more. It was getting very late, so I'd better wait until tomorrow to talk about anything.
Chen Mo's house is built in a courtyard layout, with a gate on one side and houses on the other three sides. The house where his parents live is directly opposite the gate, and Chen Mo's room is on the side, with three rooms in a row. The first one was his sister's house. However, after her sister got married, she rarely lived back home, but she still kept the house.
In the middle is his own house, with a bed and desk, a homemade bookshelf and a homemade wardrobe, all made by carpenters in the village at that time. The bedding on the bed was originally put away, but it had been laid out by my mother. Next door is his brother's room.
Opposite his room are the kitchen, warehouse, shower room, and a passage leading to the backyard of the house, which has a small vegetable patch and an open-air earthen toilet.
Chen Mo did not sleep after entering the house. After doing the lotus position, his consciousness sank into the Qiankun Pearl. He first soaked the seeds, bulbs and cutting rods he bought in different containers. The liquid was made from the stream. water. These things need to be planted in this place, so soak them first before talking about it.
I looked at the three seedlings and found that they had grown a little longer. Chen Mo was very happy and prayed that they would grow up quickly. He wanted to see what kind of plants they were.
I don’t know how the stream water in the Qiankun Pearl is generated, but according to the information from the Qiankun Pearl, the stream water will neither increase nor decrease. No matter how much it is used, it will always be the same. However, after 10 forbidden sacrifices are made, the stream will double in size. Perhaps after the final sacrifice is completed, the stream will become a big river.
Chen Mo prepared the things he bought in the West Market one by one, and directly used his spiritual consciousness to directly sow all the seeds and living plants he bought.
After everything was done, he put the Qiankun Pearl on the palm of his hand according to the posture of cultivation, then took a drop of spiritual energy liquid into his mouth and swallowed it slowly. In an instant, all the limbs and bones felt like warm sun warming the body, and the whole body felt comfortable. The real energy is also cheering and flowing rapidly in the meridians.
This is the method Chen Mo practices after having the Qiankun Pearl. This method can not only speed up the accumulation of his true energy, quickly improve his skills, but also further broaden his meridians and enhance his physical fitness. In addition, it can increase the strength of his soul and expand the scope of his spiritual consciousness. Although nothing is visible yet, as time goes by, the effect will become terrifying.
When the sky gradually turned white, Chen Mo slowly finished his work, then got up and prepared to help his family with farm work. Although I haven't discussed my plans with my parents yet, I have a lot of farm work during the day, so I will discuss it later this evening.
The roosters raised by some farmers have begun to crow, calling people to get up and work.
Chen Mo's father's name is Chen Jianguo, and his mother's name is Fu Huili. His younger brother is Chen Hui, who is already a freshman. His older sister is three years older than him and has been married for two years. Her husband's family is a restaurant owner in the county town and they met her while working.
Chen Mo and Chen Hui are still living off their parents, but fortunately Chen Mo stopped asking for money from his family two years ago and makes money through working, so their parents can still relax now. His own sister didn't have much dowry when she got married, and the family had no money. Moreover, the parents did not ask for the bride price from the husband's family. The 20,000 yuan that came with the husband's family's bride price was used as the sister's dowry when the sister got married. From the parents' perspective, they don't want to marry their daughter to make money, and as long as their daughter lives a good life, that's fine.
My parents are both honest and kind farmers. Since my grandparents passed away, my uncles in the village have not been very close to each other. The main reason is that my family is too poor and everyone looks down on me. However, two college students were born at home, which allowed my parents to hold their heads up a bit in the village.
While Chen Mo was still burning firewood and boiling water in the kitchen, his father and mother had already gotten up.
"Er baby, why don't you sleep a little longer?" Mother asked. Er baby was Chen Mo's nickname.
"I'm used to getting up early." Chen Mo replied with a smile, and then said: "Cook some rice porridge this morning or...?"
"Hey? Er baby, you'd better go to the backyard to feed the chickens first. I'll do the cooking." His mother, Fu Huili, pushed him out of the kitchen.
"The wheat bran is in the warehouse, it's still the same place. How come you didn't forget to feed it?" Her mother Fu Huili was a little worried whether her second son, who hadn't been back for two years, still remembered the process of feeding the chickens.
"Mom! Don't worry, I will take care of it." Chen Mo responded with a smile and hurried to the warehouse to get the wheat bran.
Chen Mo's father was brushing his teeth by the pool in the yard, watching Chen Mo coming in and out. Although the expression on his face was unrecognizable, the joy in his eyes could not be concealed.
The second baby has not been back for two years. It is impossible not to miss her. But Erwa had an idea since he was a child, and he even earned his tuition during the winter and summer vacations. Although I miss her, I have never mentioned that if my second baby comes back, it will cost money to travel back and forth. It is not easy for children to live outside and make money, so I can save as much as possible. In the past, my family was in a difficult situation, and I owed my second son some debt!
After eating, Chen Mo was ready to follow his father to help in the fields. At this time, since the wheat seedlings have been planted in the fields at home, we just need to water and weed from time to time. Today my father is going to weed the fields.
"Dad! Wait, I will go to the fields with you today." Chen Mo said.
"What are you going to do? You should rest at home first. You are not busy with the work in the fields. Everything that needs to be planted has been planted. It is just weeding." said his father Chen Jianguo.
Chen Mo did not agree, but picked up the hoe and said, "Let's go together. We haven't worked for two years. There's no point in resting at home."
When his father Chen Jianguo saw Chen Mo's insistence, he no longer objected and just let him go.
The two of them walked on the road one after another, and some people in the village also came out to go to the fields. Seeing Chen Mo following Chen Jiaguo, they all asked curiously.
"Isn't this the second baby? When did you come back?"
"Er baby, haven't we seen each other for a long time?"
"Old Chen, your second son is still here?"
"Er baby, why are you coming back at this time? Is there something wrong?"
…………
Father Chen Jianguo answered one by one, and Chen Mo also chatted with him. He also put out his cigarette and called out to some elders when he saw them. Folks in the countryside always give out a cigarette when they meet. Regardless of whether you smoke or not, giving it to others is a matter of politeness. Those who smoked took it and lit it, while those who didn’t smoke just waved their hands and refused. This is different from the city. This is how communication is done in the village and it has become a habit.
Since many young people in the village have gone out to work, the remaining people in the village are either old people or children. In a village with more than a thousand people, there are currently only a few hundred people left. Most of the people in the village were surnamed Chen, so the people Chen Mo met when he came back were all the seven aunts and eight aunts in the village, and they were all relatives around the corner.
