My village can't be like this

Chapter 23

"By the way, it's such a cold weather for Xiaoan, so you came to town for something, right?"

In Zhou Lan's eyes, Zhang An was actually quite lazy, he would never come out if there was nothing to do, and he would have to walk for a long time just to walk.

"I don't have a stove at home. I have to burn the firepit every day to enjoy the fire, and I have to burn the stove for cooking. It's a little troublesome, so I wanted to come over and see if it would be more convenient to buy a stove and go back to cook and keep warm."

After Zhang An talked about himself, he did not expect Li Hongbin to pick up.

"Come on, there's no need to buy it. We have an extra stove here, and we can't find a place to put it. It will rot sooner or later if it just piles up like this."

"Ah, there is one more? You wouldn't buy two more, would you?"

Li Hongbin waved his hand, "Of course not, money is not wasted like this, I have a friend who took his parents to the provincial capital, and he probably won't come back in the future. The stove, I got it here, but I don’t use it, so I kept it there, and I was worried that it would rust and rot.”

"That's right, that one is still there, I forgot, it's a big stove, just enough for you to take it back for the whole family, even if there are guests coming."

Finally, Zhang An took a look at the iron stove in the utility room. It looked like a new one, and it was indeed big enough for seven or eight people to sit around.

Since it was available here, Zhang An didn't go to the town to buy it.

In the evening, Zhou Lan insisted on staying with Zhang An for dinner, but Zhang An couldn't avoid it, so he called the village and asked Zhang Xinmin to tell his parents that he would go back later.

Because Li Hongbin said at night that he would drive to help deliver the stove back, so he didn't drink.

During the meal, Li Yao kept sitting around Zhang An, telling Zhang An to eat this and that, which made everyone laugh.

"Yaoyao, if you like Uncle Zhang An so much, let him be your godfather, okay?"

"Okay!" Li Yao agreed without even thinking about it, and turned his head and yelled godfather directly to Zhang An.

"Why didn't I expect this? The troublemaker in our family usually ignores others, but it is different with Zhang An. Every time he comes, he is very close, and I am jealous when I see it." Li Hongbin took a picture. Pat your forehead and say.

Zhang An was a little stunned. He didn't expect to have a son after eating outside.

But this is also because Zhou Lan and his wife think highly of themselves, so they readily agreed.

But Zhang An didn't bring anything with him today, so he made an agreement that Zhou Lan and his wife would take Li Yao to Changqing Village to meet their parents.

Although Zhou Lan's family eats dinner early, it also gets dark early in winter.

After dinner, Zhang An, who sat for a while, proposed to go back.

Li Hongbin originally wanted to keep Zhang An at home for a night, but Zhang An said that he was afraid that his family would be worried, so he would not keep him when he came next time.

Li Hongbin's family car was the Mazda sedan, which couldn't carry the stove, so he went out for a while, and then drove a pickup back.

The stove weighed more than 100 kilograms, which was quite heavy. Originally, Li Hongbin thought it would be a bit laborious for him and Zhang An to lift it, but he didn't expect Zhang An to lift it up alone.

After putting the stove on the car, he looked back at Li Hongbin and Zhou Lan with their eyes wide open.

"Hey, this is more than 100 catties, you just lifted it up like this, and you still don't have to breathe?"

Li Hongbin looked at Zhang An like a pervert.

"What's the matter? I'm very talented. I have been doing farm work in the countryside all year round." Zhang An pretended to be modest, but his strength was much larger than before due to the space. It is not a big problem to lift more than 200 catties , no more will do.

Li Hongbin rolled his eyes, "You think I've never done farm work, right? You're such a pervert."

In this day and age, abnormality is not yet a curse word.

Originally, Zhang An planned to give Zhou Lan 200 yuan for this stove, and buying a new one would be about the same price.

But Zhou Lan refused to accept them, and said that Zhang An no longer regarded them as friends, so he didn't give them to the left.

After Li Hongbin fixed the stove with a rope, the two got into the car.

Because it was dark, and the night in the mountains was too cold, wet and cold, little Li Yao originally wanted to go with him, but Zhou Lan didn't agree, and the little guy lost his temper.

But Zhou Lan said that as long as he behaved, she would take him there next time, and immediately persuaded him.

Before leaving, Li Yao waved to Zhang An, "Goodbye godfather."

After half a year, the road from Shui County to Hongyan Town was finally repaired.

The two of them set off from the town, saving nearly half the time compared to taking the mountain road.

Ten minutes later, we arrived at Shiyakou, and the car turned into the mountain road between the mountains.

It turned out that when there was no road, it took three to four 10 minutes to drive.

After a while, we arrived at Changqing Village.

After parking the car on the grain drying field, Zhang An lifted the stove down and carried it home.

Li Hongbin originally wanted to help, but Zhang An asked him to look for the way ahead with a flashlight.

The stove was moved to the house in a few minutes. Fortunately, it was at night, otherwise people would see Zhang An walking away with the stove alone, and the village information agency would start to spread new rumors the next day.

In a village, the intelligence center at the head of the village can decide whether a person is ruined or successful in just a few seconds.

When Wang Fang and Zhang Jiaguo saw that their son had moved a stove back by himself, they wanted to say a few words to Zhang An, but they didn't say anything when they saw someone accompanying their son.

Calling Li Hongbin to sit at home, Wang Fang also made Li Hongbin a cup of hot tea.

Li Hongbin warmly greeted Zhang An's parents, calling him uncle and aunt.

Zhang An's parents are ten years older than him, so it's not a loss to call him uncle and aunt.

When Zhou Lan and Zhou Lan came last time, Zhang Jianguo took Wang Fang out to visit, so they didn't meet each other.

So this time Zhang An introduced Li Hongbin to his parents.

He also said that Li Yao was accepted as his son, and the couple were also very happy.

He insisted that Li Hongbin should bring the children to play at home frequently.

The whole family and Li Hongbin were very happy, it can be considered that the host and guest had a good time.

Li Hongbin took a sip of tea, "Well, this is the taste, this is the tea I drank last time, and it tastes very comfortable."

This remark naturally made Wang Fang very happy, because Wang Fang picked the tea and fried it herself.

Of course, the camellias are really good, and only the sharp ones are picked.

But more is the reason for soaking hair with space spring water.

At eight or nine o'clock in the evening, Li Hongbin was about to go back. He wanted to stay at home, but his wife and children were waiting at home, so he didn't continue to stay.

Wang Fang also packed some tea leaves for Li Hongbin to take back.

Before leaving, Zhang An called to stop Li Hongbin, walked to the edge of the pond, grabbed two slender fish, and handed them to Li Hongbin pretending to find something.

Anyway, Li Yao said he really likes to eat this fish, so he packed two for Li Hongbin.

Li Hongbin might have refused if it was any other fish, but he wanted as much fish as he wanted.

The last time he ate this fish, he stood up in front of Zhou Lan at night, and managed to convince Zhou Lan who was usually not satisfied.

There is no way, when a person reaches middle age, and often socializes and drinks, his health must not be as good as before.

If my body can't keep up, I'm sure I can't stand up in front of my wife.

The fish in this pond were put in by Zhang An. Before the weather turned cold, he would often use the excuse of going to the river to fish. Every time he came back, he would bring a few.

"Hey, brother, I'm not going to be polite, this thing is a good treasure." Li Hongbin was very happy.

Zhang An also came at this age in his previous life, so he knew what was going on with Li Hongbin's smile.

Could this thing still be useful?
