Chapter 5 The Hillbilly from the City

Misty and rainy, the Tianjiang River in spring, the river flows very lazily.

Some of the slanted rice stalks in the field are lying on their stomachs in the mud, some are wearing white mud hats, and some are naked with their bodies lit by fire.

Chen Lisong was wearing a bamboo hat, carrying two bags of millet and walking lazily towards Linjiazhai.

He was covered in heat, and the drizzle fell on him and dried up quickly.

It is said that it is two bags of millet, but in fact it is not half a bag.

For Chen Lisong, it was too light, as light as wearing an extra piece of clothing.But there is only so much. On the day of the wedding, Huang Daming took half of the bags from the well with the police team.Fortunately, Lin Sancai sent the news early, he and his father picked the millet and hid it in the cellar in the mountain ahead of time.

His younger sister, Chen Songmei, married to Linjiazhai.From Chenzhuang to Linjiazhai, you have to pass through the fields by the river and pass through Huangzhuang.

Chen Songmei's family, that is, Lin Jinzhu's natal family, had little land, and the mountain land they were allotted was also barren. The bag of millet they gave during their engagement last year had already been eaten up.Now I want to send some food to my brother-in-law and uncle’s family so that their family can harvest in the fields.

Chen Lisong glanced at the field by the river, the two small bags of millet he picked were harvested from that field.

The rain is very small, the Tianjiang River is still flowing lazily, and his family's fields are bathed in the baptism of spring rain.

The land by the river is fertile land.Of course, it was he and his father who worked so hard to pick up the soil from the edge of Fengshan, and it became a fertile field.

"Hey! Chen Lisong! Missing your little wife again just after leaving the house? Hang the gold beads on your belt!" A rough voice came from behind Chen Lisong.

"Lin Sancai! You have lived in the city for so many years, why are you still so vulgar? The white rice in the city didn't make you any more elegant!" Chen Lisong knew it was Lin Sancai without turning his head. .

Speaking of which, Lin San is considered to be his daughter-in-law's natal family, but he has been an orphan since childhood.Linjiazhai's land does not produce as much grain as Huangzhuang and Chenzhuang on the Tianjiang River. Lin Sancai went to Tiancheng early to pull a rickshaw for a living.

A rickshaw drove past Chen Lisong, and it was indeed Lin Sancai.

Chen Lisong quickly caught up with the rickshaw: "You are pulling the cart, and I am carrying the load. On the road in the town, do you still want to run faster than me?"

"Then try!"

"Hey, hello! Car puller, concentrate on pulling your car! Pull it so upside down, don't drag our mother and daughter down in the river, okay?" A high-pitched female voice came from the rickshaw.

"No, don't worry! I met a relative, let's chat." Lin Sancai replied with a smile.

Chen Lisong glanced at the car, and there was a wife in her thirties and a girl about the same size as his wife Lin Jinzhu sitting in the rickshaw.

This lady was really beautiful, but her eyes were full of anger staring at Lin Sancai's back, as if she wanted to burn Lin Sancai's clothes in this misty and rainy day.The girl is holding a volume of books in one hand, while holding the edge of the rickshaw seat tightly with the other hand, for fear of falling off the car.

The wife said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you chatting with country bumpkins? I pay to ride in your car, not to listen to your chat."

Lin Sancai slowed down his pace: "Yes yes yes!"

Chen Lisong also slowed down, walking side by side with the rickshaw: "Did you drive from Tiancheng all the way to Daofeng Town?"

"You doubt?"

"I don't doubt it," Chen Lisong sized up the beauties in the car as he walked, "I don't doubt that you brought us to Daofeng Town from Chongqing, but I just think that this sister in the city can really make a fuss. Pack a rickshaw to come to Daofeng Town to see the scenery."

"We're not here to see the scenery!" Seeing the rickshaw slow down, the girl in the car let go of her hand on the edge of the seat, and said with both hands holding the book.

The young woman glanced at the girl beside her, and said, "Shut up, don't talk to the bumpkins, do you think they are your schoolmates?"

Chen Lisong was a little annoyed, why did she call herself "hillbilly" on the left and "hillbilly" on the right.

"Yo yo!" Lin Sancai stopped the car suddenly, turned around, stared straight at the lady, folded his arms and said, "This aunt in the city, you said you hired my car How much did you pay me when you arrived in Daofeng Town?"

"Did I say I won't give you money?" The wife looked dissatisfied.

The girl put the book in her hand on the edge of the seat, stretched out her hand and said to the wife, "Mom—"

"Hey! Did I get in your way by chatting with the country bumpkin?" Lin Sancai got into a fight with the lady.

Chen Lisong saw Lin Sancai stop the car to argue with his wife, and reprimanded him: "I said Lin Sancai, do you want to talk about the virtues of pulling a cart? Why are you arguing with your guests?"

Lin Sancai said: "I just can't understand the so-called faces of bumpkins from the city, even worse than bumpkins from the countryside, so come to Daofeng Town!"

The wife said: "What a country bumpkin from the city, you have no quality, you will always be a country bumpkin!"

Lin Sancai said: "Come here, you, city people, please get out of my car!"

"What? You asked me to get out of the car? I've hired your car!" The wife was a little out of breath.

"Yes! You noble city man, I won't serve you anymore!" Lin Sancai folded his arms, turned his head to one side, and looked in the direction of Fengshan.

The top of Fengshan Mountain is cloudy and foggy. Now it seems that the rain is a bit heavy, and the fog is thicker.

"I want to pay you to take it to Zheng's Village!" The wife said angrily.

Lin Sancai glanced at her, and said, "I don't want your little money, sir? I can't help a country bumpkin from the city!"

"What kind of country bumpkins from the city? What are you talking about? You two are real country bumpkins!" The wife was really furious.

The girl tugged at her mother's sleeve and said, "Mom! You've been talking all the way up to now, and you've always said that country people are bad. I think it's the same in the countryside and cities. Just stop talking about it!"

Chen Lisong could tell that the girl was full of dissatisfaction with her mother, but there was nothing she could do about her mother.

"Look, your daughter also said that you have been talking all the way up to now, always talking about country people here and country people there. Didn't you come out of Daofeng Town?" Lin Sancai babbled without even looking at her.

"Hey! It's just that you are still thinking about your relatives in the country. You have been in the city for so long. No wonder you are still pulling a broken car and have no daughter-in-law!" The young woman was still mean.

Lin Sancai's face was a little sullen, and he stepped forward to pull her out of the car, and said, "Come on, I've also heard you from the country bumpkins all the way, aren't you Zheng Yiyi from Zhengjiazhai in Daofeng Town! How did you marry Tiancheng? In the past ten years, Zheng Yiyi has become Aunt Zheng, so she has become a city dweller?"

Only when Lin San changed his words from "you" to "you", he decided that it was impossible to pull that wife back, let alone pull them both back to the city.

Chen Lisong smoothed things over and said: "Don't be angry, it's all my fault. Lin San just met me and said a few more words to me."

The wife Lin Sancai called Aunt Zheng turned around and dragged her daughter out of the rickshaw, saying, "You damn rickshaw boy, don't even want the money for the car!"

"I really don't want the stinky money from your country bumpkin!" Lin Sancai saw Aunt Zheng dragging her daughter and stumbling towards Zheng's village. He seemed to have relieved his hatred, and suddenly felt a little proud He yelled at the back of Aunt Zheng: "I see how you go back to the city after you go back to your mother's house! I don't think you should go back to Tiancheng, just stay in Daofeng Town! You still look down on me!" We bumpkins!"
