Fengcheng old events

Chapter 37

Zhang Jingyi was a little embarrassed, bit his lip and asked, "Is it brother or brother? What labor is it?"

The sister-in-law of the Zhang family said: "Brother, but I also live together. They all live in the same courtyard, with three large courtyards, both of which are north and south. The private plot is in front of the house and behind the house. I even opened some courtyards for pigs, dogs, chickens and ducks." It's all there."

Zhang Jingyi asked: "How old is it?"

Zhang's sister-in-law coughed, she couldn't get rid of it, and said, "It's just a little older, almost fifty, but there is nothing wrong with her body."

Disappointment flashed in Zhang Jingyi's eyes, and he thought for a while and said, "Can you go and have a look? As long as you are good to the child, let the child have enough to eat."

The sister-in-law of the Zhang family said: "That must be no problem. Both brothers are honest and kind, and they must be good to children. Otherwise, your elder brother can't open his mouth."

Zhang Jingyi followed Zhang's sister-in-law to the team and asked for leave with Lao Huo to let Liu Zhaofeng take care of his younger sister. The two left the village in a carriage, crossed the river, and walked northeast along the dirt road.

After walking for four miles, the carriage got on the national road, and the sister-in-law of the Zhang family said, "This is Yaojiabao, the third team. From here, follow the national road and you will reach the fourth team, Zhangjiabao. The two brothers live in Nangou , there are all newly opened fields and late households, there are seven or eight families, and the Zhang family is a single family."

Zhang Jingyi looked at the surrounding scenery, he could see mountains, pine forests, wild grass, and a big river passing between the two mountains.

From Fatai Village to Yaojiabao, there are still a few scattered families, but from Yaojiabao, it is completely barren mountains and wild mountains.

After walking another two miles, passing the guard house, and crossing the Sandaohe bridge, the sister-in-law of the Zhang family said: "From here, you have entered the fort, and you will go directly to the team headquarters. You have to go forward in Nangou. The mountain bay in front is just there. The land below the mountain bay is planted by the two brothers."

There are locust trees planted on both sides of the national highway, and they are all old. Sophora japonica is in full bloom at this moment, and the air is filled with a strong fragrance of flowers. Strings of light yellow and white flowers hang all over the branches. Butterflies and bees are Flying among the flowers.

After crossing the mountain bay, there is a hillside on the right hand side, on which there are stretches of pine trees, and on the left hand side is a steep ridge, two or three meters high, below the ridge is a row of fruit forests, plums, pears, cherries, hawthorns, apricots Well, the outside is all land, with lush crops growing all the way to the opposite hillside, with a small river flowing in the middle, a few tall walnut trees and a few old willows beside the river.

The elder sister-in-law of the Zhang family said: "This is it. The land along the river was planted by the two brothers, and all the way to the area in front of the house. The fruit trees were planted by the two brothers. They are hardworking."

While talking, I saw a yellow mud thatched house facing south in the middle of the crop field under the ridge. It was not small, with three and a half rooms arranged from east to west.At the east end of the house, a tall tent (a wooden fence more than two meters high) is sandwiched between split wood, extending along the house for more than ten meters.

There are large independent chimneys at both east and west ends of the house, several meters higher than the ridge, with an iron cap on the top.

The sister-in-law of the Zhang family said: "Going out of Dongtou is the horse road into the fort. It is right by the river. There is a big yard and there is also land in the yard. There is a family on the other side of the river, and there are six or seven families going forward."

The carriage stopped under an old walnut tree about ten meters high. This was a dirt road intersection with a ridge. On the other side of the intersection was an old hawthorn tree with gnarled branches, and a big bluestone under the tree.Below the bluestone is a small cherry grove.

The sister-in-law of the Zhang family helped Zhang Jingyi get off the carriage, and said, "The boss of his family loves trees, and he made all the fruit trees in this area. This old hawthorn was originally there, these walnuts, and the two outside the east yard. He got all the trees out of the mountains and planted them."

Zhang Jingyi looked up at the walnut tree.From this position, you can see the whole courtyard. Going down the dirt road, halfway up is the cellar, and further down the cellar is the west gate of the courtyard. The curtains are neatly clamped.

The entire yard is about ten meters wide, and there is a door on the tent facing the main entrance that enters the vegetable field. There are two sauce vats, one large and one small, beside the door.

All kinds of vegetables are grown in the vegetable field, one by one, and there are two warehouses on one side of the field, the round one is the floor warehouse, and the square one is the shelf warehouse.The vegetable field starts from the edge of the ridge and ends at the edge of the Dongtou horse road. It is 60 meters long and 30 meters wide, at least three acres of land.

There is a circle of unknown flowers planted on the side of the vegetable field, which are in full bloom and colorful.

The sister-in-law of the Zhang family pointed out and introduced: "The back of the house is the private land, which grows grain, and the front and the east end are the vegetable fields opened by the brothers themselves."

At the east end of the yard is a grape arbor, covering one third of the yard. Next to the grape arbor, to the east of the house is a pigsty and a toilet. You can see two flower pigs lying on the hay in the pen, and a hen in the yard He was digging the ground with a group of chickens, a little white dog was standing at the main entrance, staring at it, and five or six big white geese were shaking their slender necks by the side of the pigsty.

Zhang Jingyi suddenly felt that this place is very good. The nearest neighbor is separated from the horse road and the river. The house is big enough, and Jin Baoer suddenly appeared in front of her, picking flowers and looking at the tree. The pear apricot grape swallows saliva.

After smiling, Zhang Jingyi said, "Very good, let's go here. Thank you, sister-in-law, and brother."

The sister-in-law of the Zhang family smiled and asked: "Did you like it? This one is really good. The key is that the two brothers are both loyal and good for the children. Go down and enter the hospital to have a look?"

Zhang Jingyi didn't know why he shook his head: "No, sister-in-law, please help me set a date. I can just move here with the child. Sister-in-law, I believe you, but if, if the child is unhappy, I won't stay long. "

The little white dog in the yard jumped a few times.Wang, woof woof, woof.

The sister-in-law of the Zhang family smiled and said: "That's absolutely no problem. Your elder brother deliberately asked about the child to death. You saved half my life. My sister-in-law will never destroy you. If it is really bad for the child, sister-in-law will do it herself." Take you back, okay?"

The two returned to Fatai in a carriage. Zhang Jingyi was stunned along the way, not knowing what he was thinking. The sister-in-law of the Zhang family was still in high spirits, but she gradually calmed down, and sighed as she looked at the weeds by the roadside. tone.

After three days, it was said that the two brothers from Nangou were ready.

Zhang Jingyi bid farewell to Captain Huo, accompanied by Zhang's eldest brother and sister-in-law, took the two suitcases, a little food and luggage, and two children, got into the carriage again, and left the Fatai unsteadily. village.

"Mom, where are we going?"

"Go to a new home. We have our own house to live in, and you will have enough to eat in the future."

Liu Zhaofeng grew up and understood a lot of things, so he asked, "Mom, what's your name in the past?"

Zhang Jingyi was taken aback for a moment, and the sister-in-law of the Zhang family said, "If I want to support you in the future, I'd better call you Dad, it's not a loss."
