I am Fugui

Chapter 115 Two Years Later

Two years passed in the blink of an eye.

In midsummer, it is rare to be cloudy, and clusters of clouds surround the scorching sun, relieving half of the heat.

On the field ridge, Xu Fugui was wearing a white and yellowish white short coat and gray trousers with fat legs tied with a thin rope.

Wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat on his head, holding a dustpan in his hand, he is not too dirty, and sprinkles the plant ash in the dustpan into the field.

Time didn't seem to have left any marks on his body, but his skin was slightly tanned, and his well-defined muscles exuded the charm of an adult man.

Looking at the blue rice seedlings in the field, he couldn't help showing a gratified smile.

In another month, after the rice has sunned and turned yellow, it can be harvested.

After scattering all the ashes in the dustpan, I took off the straw hat and fanned it, wiped off the perspiration from my forehead, and carried the dustpan to the field above.

I picked the biggest watermelon in the field and walked towards the house.

"father!"

As soon as they got home, a chubby little boy ran over staggeringly, shouting in a childish voice.

Xu Fugui didn't hug him, and asked with a smile: "Youqing, did your sister bully you again?"

Time flies so fast, Youqing is now two and a half years old, he was able to walk with a chair when he was one year old, he was able to run by himself when he was one and a half years old, and he started talking when he was two years old.

This kid is very active, especially after he can walk, he often runs around alone and enjoys it.

Youqing's hair was cut very short, exposing his forehead, he raised his head and asked unhappily, "Father, why don't you hug me?"

Xu Fugui stretched out his dirty hands, "Do you want Dad to put a big face on you?"

Youqing shook his head immediately, and ran into the house in a hurry.

Xu Fugui put down the dustpan with a smile, washed his hands in the water tank in the yard, and walked into the house with the watermelon in his arms.

"Father, did younger brother sue you again?" Feng Xia asked.

Fengxia is also seven years old now, and she has grown a lot. She looks like someone who would believe that she was nine years old. Her face is similar to Jiazhen's, with the same red lips, pretty eyebrows and straight nose. Everyone in the village said that she will be like Jiazhen in the future. pretty.

She was wearing a green floral short sleeve, her hair was tied into a ponytail, and she looked slim, with anger on her delicate face.

"Why, brother made you angry again?" Xu Fugui asked.

Feng Xia nodded seriously, "My brother always makes a mess in the house, and I managed to clean it up with great difficulty."

Xu Fugui gestured to the watermelon in his hand, "Then let's not give it to my brother later."

Fengxia laughed her eyes into two cracks, and glanced at Youqing triumphantly, "Okay."

Of course Youqing refused, and rushed over to hug his leg, "Father, I want to eat too."

"Then you clean up the house first."

Youqing started immediately, but he was too young, he wanted to squat down to pick up the bench, but he couldn't move the bench, and he couldn't squat stably, so he fell to the ground.

He didn't care if he fell, he got up on his own, and wanted to pick up the bench.

Fengxia still felt sorry for her younger brother, so she walked over to help him clean up.

"You, you know how to talk to Fengxia, and youqing won't like you when you become sensible." Jiazhen came in from outside with a backpack full of bitter bamboo shoots.

Bitter bamboo shoots are generally small in size and have a fragrant and bitter taste, not as bitter as bitter gourd. They are very popular here and are often used to cook sauerkraut soup.

Xu Fugui helped her put down the pannier, "Where am I facing Fengxia? Both children are the same, both are the same."

Jiazhen looked around the room and asked, "Fengxia, where's your grandfather?"

"In the house." Youqing hurriedly said.

"Grandpa is weaving bamboo mats in the house." Feng Xia added.

Jiazhen asked again: "Grandma and your Uncle Shun haven't come back yet?"

The two children shook their heads in unison.

Jiazhen smiled and said, "I don't know if Laishun thinks highly of a girl from the Liu family."

Lai Shun is almost 21 years old, which is not a young age in the countryside. During this time, Xu's mother has been helping him find a partner.

In order to get married in Laishun, they built another wooden shed next to the thatched hut, and specially ordered a new bed.

The family can't be divided for the time being, and we have to wait for the construction of two new adobe houses before we can divide the family.

Moreover, Xu Fugui was not satisfied with an adobe house. If possible, he wanted to build a brick house.

This matter needs to be discussed in the long term, and for now, Laishun's marriage should be settled first.

Xu Fugui came out with a basin of cold water, put in the linen cloth for washing his face, wrung it dry and handed it to Jiazhen to wipe off his sweat.

He himself took out a dry tobacco, rolled it skillfully, lit it and smoked it.

Fengxia ran over and sat on his lap, while looking at the blue mist, she said: "Father, sister Da Niu, and both big and small sisters are going to study in the school in the city soon, and I want to study too."

Xu Fugui frowned, "The city is so chaotic, Fifth Brother dares to let the big girl go to the city without worry?"

Da Shuang and Xiao Shuang can understand, although Long Er has had a lot of bad luck, it is still no problem for the two children to study.

In the past two years, Xu Fugui has not been to the city once, because he is afraid of the accidents in his previous life.

It may be that with him in the house, although she is not rich, at least she can guarantee her food. Fengxia has never had any problems.

But Xu Fugui still had a thought, once Fengxia showed signs of illness, he must invite the doctor over in time.

Fengxia's voice is so nice, he couldn't bear Fengxia to become a deaf-mute again.

Feng Xia put her arms around his neck, "Father, but I also want to study."

"This"

Xu Fugui was a little embarrassed, and persuaded: "Fengxia, wait another two years, okay?"

Now it is [-], and after another two years, Xintu will be established. By then, society will be peaceful, and of course it will not be a problem to send Fengxia to study.

Fengxia lowered her head in disappointment, Xu Fugui was very distressed, and was thinking about what to do, Jiazhen suddenly said: "Fengxia, ah, mother will teach you at home, okay?"

Xu Fugui's eyes lit up immediately, "That's right, I can let your mother teach you, it's definitely better than the teachers in the city."

"Let your mother teach you how to read first, and after two years, father will definitely send you to school."

A smile appeared on Fengxia's face again, "Mom, what are you going to teach me? I can recognize a lot of characters, and I can also write my own name."

Jiazhen looked at her dotingly, "Whatever the schools in the city teach, we, Fengxia, also learn."

Fengxia jumped down happily, and ran out in no time.

"Fengxia, where are you going in this hot weather?" Jiazhen shouted from behind.

"I'll go tell Da Niu that I can read too." Fengxia's crisp and clear voice came from outside.

Not long after, Fengxia came back, bringing Da Niu and Chen Yunsheng with her.

"Fifth brother, come in and sit down." Jiazhen greeted warmly, and brought the bamboo chair in front of him.

"Jiazhen, don't greet me, I come here often."

Chen Yunsheng first handed over a dry cigarette, and after Xu Fugui took it, he asked, "I heard that Jiazhen wants to teach Fengxia to read and write at home?"
