The Peach Blossom Village of the Cat Boss

Chapter 28
When the three returned home, my mother was busy making breakfast.

Wang Tianyang originally wanted to help, but was pushed out of the kitchen by his wife.

"Go, go, stay and watch Mom show you something!"

For some reason, she looked extra happy today.

"Just do something simple."

Wang Tianyang was outside the kitchen, looking inside.

He remembered that when he was a child, when the farming was busy, his parents ate very simple breakfast. A bowl of porridge and a few pickles were enough to cope with it, or they could use the leftovers from the night before.

At noon, you have to prepare well. After all, you have to work in the sun, how can you not have a full meal?

Today, my old lady is obviously a little unusual.

She wiped her hands on the apron, raised the kitchen knife and cut up the sausage, and chopped a pig's foot.

She even took out her treasured fermented bean curd.

Usually, these are delicacies that can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year!

"Mom is happy today!"

The old lady didn't turn her head back, she was still busy in the kitchen.

Wang Tianyang had no choice but to be chased away by his mother several times, so he could only watch TV in his father's room.

After watching for about an hour, my old lady brought four or five dishes to the table.

In a friendly tone, he called the two of them to eat.

Wang Tianyang went to the main room to have a look, good guy!Garlic sausage, stewed pork knuckle with bean paste, stewed beef, dried cured fish, and a cold Houttuynia cordata.

All his favorite dishes!
"Let's have a drink later?"

The old man was no longer stern, and looked very happy.

Wang Tianyang was a little dazed. Yesterday, his father told him that his nose was not his nose, and his eyes were not his eyes.

Now the attitude is so good!

"Drink less."

The old lady was even more strange. The person who was most opposed to daddy's drinking, and was furious when he saw him drinking, actually took the initiative to get him a drink!
Why today, one or two of them have changed their sex?

Wang Tianyang couldn't figure it out for a while, and felt a chill down his spine.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!

"Dad, what's going on with you and Mom today?"

The old man picked up the wolfberry wine and took a sip.

"What else can I do? Be happy!"

The old lady untied her apron and went to the table, took a small cup and poured a glass of wine for Wang Tianyang.

"In previous years, whenever the farming season was busy, girls and young men from other people's families would go back to their hometowns to help the elders at home."

"You are busy with work outside, and you can't come back. Both your father and I understand."

"But seeing other families have daughters and daughters to help, and we are all alone, how uncomfortable it is!"

Although the old man didn't speak, he let out a long sigh and looked a little lonely.

The white hair on his temples looked particularly glaring.

Wang Tianyang didn't speak for a while, suddenly, he noticed that his father and mother were not as young and energetic as he remembered, and there was more vicissitudes of life between their brows.

It has been eight years since I went to a university in other places and stayed in the imperial capital to work after graduation.

Eight years have passed, how many times has he been home during that time?

Over the years, even during the Spring Festival, I often couldn't come back because of overtime.

Occasionally a few times, when I come back for the Spring Festival, I always leave in a hurry.

Mom and Dad, how lonely was it then?How many eight years do they have to wait?
"Misunderstanding into the dust net, one go for 30 years."

Wang Tianyang suddenly felt deeply moved by this poem by Tao Yuanming.

The most important time in his life was wasted in the ups and downs of the imperial capital.

During that time, there was basically not much happiness, on the contrary, I always felt depressed and painful.

Eight years have passed, and the previous passion has been wiped out, and it is fine if there is no achievement. Instead, it has been polished and lost its edges and corners, and it has clearly recognized the reality.

In the last few years, he no longer pursued what he really wanted to express, but desperately catered to the market and made some "works" that he didn't even like.

At the same time, he completely ignored his parents who stayed at home.

I always think that one day I will be able to stand out, and then come to honor them.

Time slipped away like this, and his parents were no longer young.

The old man touched Wang Tianyang with a wine glass:
"Dad knows that you are filial, and your heart is also taken by Dad. I am satisfied to have you come back this year."

"In the future, you should go to the city to work hard, and your wife and I will take care of ourselves."

This time, Wang Tianyang did not rush to refute.

He raised his glass with a smile and drank it down.

But in his heart, he was sure again what he really wanted.

What he wanted was never in the imperial capital, what he wanted was always in this remote and poor Peach Blossom Village.

He was born here, grew up here, and will belong here.

The alcohol content of wolfberry wine was still high, and Wang Tianyang choked.

After coughing a few times, his eye sockets turned red, and he quickly changed the subject.

"Mom, I have two friends who may come over today. Let's clean up two of our guest rooms and come out."

The two friends Wang Tianyang mentioned were Xia Bing and her little assistant.

He had inquired before that this little assistant was a man.

A man and a woman may not be able to live together, so we can only arrange two rooms.

"Row."

The old lady responded.

The three chatted while eating at the table. The old lady talked about some gossip between relatives and friends, and Wang Tianyang echoed and discussed a few words. The meal took a long time to end.

After dinner, Wang Tianyang and his father lay down on the bed and slept for a while because they had been drinking.

It wasn't until noon that they went to the second uncle's house to borrow an ox cart and went to the field to plant rice seedlings.

The old lady has not gone to the ground for the time being, she wants to wash the dishes at home first, and then tidy up the two rooms and come out.

Erbo's family opened a small shop in the county, and they haven't farmed for a long time. His family's ox cart is often borrowed by the village.

As soon as Wang Tianyang and his father came, the second aunt knew what was going on, and led the cow out without saying a word.

"Brother Hai, how much have you planted this year, do you want to help? If you are too busy, just call the branch and I will call my kid back."

The second aunt has a good relationship with his family and is very enthusiastic.

This is not a polite word. In previous years, their family was too busy, and the second aunt really called her precious son back to help.

"Auntie, I'm here this year! Don't let my cousin come back and compete with me for work."

Before the father could speak, Wang Tianyang replied with a smile.

"Hey, our scholar is going to the ground!"

The second aunt was quite surprised, her family didn't cultivate any land, so she didn't know that Wang Tianyang had been cultivating the field for two days to pull the seedlings.

"I went to the ground early. I can pull the seedlings better than my dad. If you don't believe me, go to the village and ask."

The old man had already set up the bullock cart, and Wang Tianyang waved goodbye to his second aunt quickly:

"Auntie, let's go to work! Next time I have time to come to your house for dinner!"

The two pushed the ox cart to the paddy field, put the bundles of the torn seedlings on the ox cart under the envious eyes of everyone, and then came to the paddy field against the sun.

There is no technical content in transplanting rice seedlings. In order to be lazy, many people in rural areas even adopt the planting method of throwing rice seedlings.

The so-called throwing seedlings is to grab a bunch of seedlings and throw them into the paddy field.

Wherever the seedlings are thrown, they will grow there.

It is said that the ones thrown away by experienced farmers may even be better than those planted one by one by others!

When he was a child, Wang Tianyang had seen someone throw seedlings.

At that time, he felt a little itchy and wanted to try it himself.

However, with his father at his side, he dared not use this random throwing method.

I can only learn from my father and plant by myself.

Fortunately, when he got up today, his waist no longer hurt.

Although it is hot and tiring, it is still within the tolerable range
In this way, Wang Tianyang and his father worked silently.

Before I knew it, I forgot about time.

Until a surprised female voice sounded next to his ear, waking him up:
"Director Wang?!"
