After returning to the countryside to farm, I brought the whole village to become rich

Chapter 209 A meaningful day

The leisure time after lunch is the time for children to play freely.

The boys went to play football on the grass.

The girls gathered together to dance rubber bands and kick shuttlecocks.

There are no entertainment facilities in the countryside, and there are no electronic devices such as game consoles and mobile phones, even if there are children, they cannot touch them.

So until now, the entertainment methods for little girls in rural areas are jumping rubber bands, kicking shuttlecocks, throwing sandbags and other popular games of post-80s and 90s.

Children in the city seldom play these games anymore, so it is unavoidably a bit novel to watch them now.

Chen Jing patiently taught them to dance with rubber bands, and the little girls jumped out of sweat in a short while, panting from exhaustion.

The mothers in the city shook their heads and couldn't help sighing.

"Children nowadays are too delicate, and their physical fitness is too poor. I remember when we were young, we could dance for a whole day with two benches and rubber bands stretched, without panting at all."

"Children today never leave their mobile phones and iPads every day. It's not like our time."

"Tsk, does my daughter have a problem with the same hands and feet? She dances clumsily and is not flexible at all."

"Dancing rubber bands was my favorite when I was in elementary school. I was so good at that time that I could jump from my ankles all the way to the top of my head. At that time, I even learned to do handstands and somersaults in order to jump rubber bands."

As they talked, the mothers couldn't help recalling their childhood, and then became a little itchy.

A mother suggested: "It's idle anyway, why don't we go dancing for a while?"

Because they are going to the countryside, they all wear casual clothes and sneakers, which is convenient.

Other moms responded quickly.

"Okay, just now watching them dance, my feet were already itchy, I'm just embarrassed to say."

"Jump, let's relive our childhood."

Li Guangqin asked Chen Jing for a rubber band, and the mothers were divided into two groups and started a rubber band jumping competition.

The mothers are all young. Although their bodies are not as light and flexible as they were when they were young, their movements are standard and they dance well.

Several little girls stood on the sidelines and watched, and couldn't help clapping their hands and exclaiming, "Wow, my mother is so amazing."

In the end, it was the mothers who had a good time playing, revisiting their childhood and experiencing the fun of jumping rubber bands again.

……

In the afternoon, Shen Qiuqiu invited the children to pick strawberries in his own strawberry field to experience the fun of picking strawberries.

More than 20 children, each carrying a picking basket, squatted happily among the ridges of the field to pick strawberries.

"Wow, here is a big strawberry, sister Jingjing, come here quickly."

"Hey, look, does this strawberry look like a gourd?"

"Brother Jin Bao, look at me, twins, conjoined twins!"

"Haha, it really is."

The laughter spread to every corner of the field, and the children had a great time playing, and they reaped a lot in a short while.

The children in the city each picked a basket full of strawberries, but Chen Jing and the others only picked some symbolically, not even filling the bottom of the basket.

When Shen Qiuqiu saw them, he packed them some small strawberries that had been picked in advance.

Chen Jing and the others opened their mouths, but they were too embarrassed to refuse, so they could only thank them with a smile.

Afterwards, the children took a group photo together in the strawberry field.

The children in the city are dressed brightly, but most of the children in the countryside are dressed in old clothes with dull colors;
But at this time, they were no longer separated from each other, either holding hands or shoulders, standing together intimately, with sunny smiles on their faces.

As soon as the shutter sounded, the camera freezes the moment.

The beauty of this moment will always be fixed in the hearts of the children.

For them, today is a very meaningful day.

It's just that there is no feast that never ends, and soon it will be time to say goodbye.

The children said goodbye reluctantly, and agreed to dig wild vegetables together next time, dig out birds' eggs from trees, and fish in rivers.

Chen Jing and Zhang Qiuyu exchanged addresses, expressing that they would communicate frequently by writing letters in the future.

Zhang Qiuyu hugged Chen Jing on tiptoe, and said with a smile: "Sister Jingjing, I'll come to play with you next time I'm on vacation, you can't forget me."

Chen Jing pursed her lips, and also showed a shy smile, "Well, I will never forget, we are good friends."

Li Jinbao and Liang Binbin also exchanged the contact numbers of their parents, and they will meet again after meeting.

After a day of getting along, Liang Binbin has become Li Jinbao's little fan, and he adores him endlessly.

"Brother Jin Bao, you play football so well, you are better than the main force of our school's junior high school team; I remember that our school has special football enrollment places, why don't you come and try it, with your level, you must be stable of.

At that time, you can still live in my house, I have a lot of toys in my house, and we can watch Captain Tsubasa together. "

Li Jinbao scratched the back of his head, embarrassed to say that his family had no money for him to study in the county, so he just smiled and replied vaguely, "Let's talk about it when the time comes."

The other children were also hugging each other and saying goodbye, and the atmosphere was a little sad.

The parents urged several times before Zhang Qiuyu and the others reluctantly got into the car.

The bus drove away slowly.

Li Jinbao and others stood at the entrance of the village, watching the bus drift away until it disappeared.

Lin Hongxi hugged Li Jinbao's shoulders, and greeted several older children: "Let's go, go back to the village committee with uncle, and clean up the library for you while you have time."

Song Guangqin and the others donated a lot of books to the village during their visit, most of which were books for teenagers and children.

It happened that the village committee still had vacant rooms, so Lin Hongxi planned to clean up a room and use it as a library for the children in the village.

"Oh yeah, we have a library!"

The children cheered happily, surrounded Lin Hongxi and headed towards the village committee.

……

On the return bus, the children were still immersed in the sad atmosphere of parting.

Zhang Qiuyu leaned against the car window sullenly, staring at the receding scenery outside the window in a daze.

Song Guangqin rubbed her daughter's head and comforted her in a low voice, "Daughter, life is a journey, there will be encounters and partings; there will be separation between people at any time, but after separation there will be reunion.

Don't be unhappy, live your life well, and look forward to the next reunion. "

These words are a bit esoteric for the fifth grade pupils, Zhang Qiuyu seems to understand, but also seems to understand nothing.

The little girl sniffed, then suddenly put her arms around Song Guangqin's neck, and whispered, "Mom, you are so kind."

Song Guangqin smiled and put his arms around his daughter, letting her act like a baby in his arms.

Zhang Qiuyu leaned in her mother's arms and said, "Mom, I feel so happy.

You and Dad are so kind to me, I have beautiful clothes to wear, a big house to live in, and I don’t have to herd sheep to earn money...

I will study hard, and when I grow up, I will treat you well, and I will earn a lot of money so that you can live in bigger and better houses. "

Song Guangqing's eyes were slightly moist, he patted his daughter's back, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, mother doesn't need to live in a big house, as long as you are healthy and happy."
