Liu An Hua Ming You Yi Village

Chapter 22

Du Yu should only listen to the words of his elders. Anyway, he listens to what is right and does not act on what is wrong. It is also very good.

Over there, Du Youzhong was talking to Uncle Hu, and Uncle Hu said: "I think it will be dry in the beginning of spring next year. If you go to the mountains, the water there will be cut off."

Uncle Hu is very good at seeing this. Although he is a veterinarian, most of these animals are not doing farm work?Hearing from other old farmers, this experience is written down.I always feel that next year will be a severe drought year, so we must prepare in advance to avoid famine in time.

Du Youzhong is not too meticulous about farm work, but it is not a good thing to hear that there will be a severe drought next year. If there is really no harvest, people may die.

In the past, there were natural disasters, and some people in the village could not survive, so they went out to beg for a living.I heard that in some places, there was a flood, which directly flooded the entire village. I don’t know how many people died. They are fine here, there is not such a big river, and the village will not be flooded, but if it is really big Drought, grain failure, there is no guarantee that nothing will happen.

"Half of the food in my family is from my own land, and the other half is bought. If there is a severe drought, I can't afford it."

Country people live their lives, but don't they just watch God give them food?If God doesn't reward me, I really can't live.

"I'm also guessing, but if we have enough food at home, we won't be able to eat at some time." This matter is not yet certain, who dares to say it?When the time comes to cause panic, people from the government will come to the door.

If Du Youzhong hadn't been Uncle Hu's brother-in-law, he wouldn't have said it.

"Well, I'm thinking, when the time comes, buy more coarse grains, and just keep enough!" At that time, it doesn't matter whether the food is delicious or not, some food is good.

"We can't let too many people know about this matter, if not, wouldn't we be defrauding people?" Uncle Hu ordered.

"Don't worry, this matter must not be told to others." It's not that they are selfish, it is their own guess about this matter. It's just too bad.

What's more, when the office went out, everyone rushed to buy grain, and the price of grain was raised all of a sudden, causing chaos. The whole family would be arrested. Everyone had to take care of themselves first, and no one was so concerned. The generosity of you, put yourself into it, just to benefit everyone?

Anyway, Du Youzhong can't do it, the uncle can tell himself that he trusts himself, besides, there is another just in case, in case the guess is false, he tells everyone about it, and then people waste money They are also the ones who complain about buying food in the end.

So it's all in secret, but I have to talk to my mother about this matter. Although my mother has a strong mouth, she can tell what should be said and what should not be said.

I came here today, and Du Youzhong had a big deal in mind. Although Grandma Hu wanted to keep their grandpa for dinner, but seeing that the Chinese New Year was coming, Du Youzhong declined. Uncle Hu also said that everyone has a lot of things to do during the Chinese New Year now. Well, anyway, the Chinese New Year is only a few days away, and they will come over in the third year of junior high school.

So Grandma Hu didn't insist anymore. As for why it was the third year of junior high school, because in the second year of junior high school, the two aunts from the Du family were coming back. As for Mrs. Gao, it was her first year of marriage, and she had to go back to her natal family in the second year of junior high school, otherwise she would be said that the Du family was unkind and abused her daughter-in-law.

It will be Chinese New Year in a few days, Du Youzhong thought, now that the grain store is closed, why bother to talk about this matter, let mother feel uneasy, let's talk about it after the next year.

It's just that it's not like what my uncle said, there's nothing wrong with buying more food, and it won't spoil if you put it there.

By the way, I have to dig a well at home. It's better to use it by myself than to use it with others.

Du Yu felt that when his father came back from his grandmother's house, he looked a little preoccupied. Could there be something embarrassing?

"Father, you are not happy." Du Yu asked.

Du Youzhong was startled, and said with a smile: "What's the embarrassment, the girl still wants to solve it for dad."

"That's right, it's not necessarily something a kid can't do about an adult's business," Du Yu said.

Du Erlang also nodded, "Father, adults may not be able to do what we kids can do."

"Oh? What's the matter, what you kids can do, but us adults can't?" Du Youzhong was still interested.

"That's right, if we change our teeth, we can still grow them. Dad, if you change your teeth again, they won't grow back." Du Erlang said.

"Haha. What Erlang said is true, isn't that true!" Du Youzhong was amused by his son's words, but what Erlang said made sense.The haze in Du Youzhong's heart disappeared after being teased by his son.

Du Yu couldn't help but laugh too. My second brother is really clever, so he can figure out this question, but Tongyan Tongyu is even more interesting.

At Gao's natal home, when Du Youxian came back, he also got a basket of sweet potatoes in this basket. There was nothing good at home, and the son-in-law brought steamed stuffed buns. He couldn't let people go home empty-handed, so he brought a basket of sweet potatoes, which was a good idea.

The Hu family over there also wanted to send something, but Du Youzhong delayed it. He felt embarrassed to ask for something again, but as for the third child, it had another meaning.

On the morning of the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, Du Yu got up very early. Today, he went to the mountain to visit the graves of his relatives who had passed away. He also wanted to pick them up for the new year. At this time, men and women are not particular. As long as they are descendants, they can go up and burn paper. Kowtow, and then set off a string of firecrackers, please ancestors come back for the New Year.

Du Yu and the others had just finished burning the paper and went down the mountain when they ran into Du Youliang's family of four who were going up the mountain, all wearing clothes made of good materials. ? Go to my house to play and have a meal when you have time. Liu'er brought us a lot of good things, just waiting for the Chinese New Year, treat you to eat."

Mrs. Liu smiled at everyone at the side, but did not speak. Du Youzhong nodded, "The second brother is not going to the grave, so hurry up, we will talk when we have time."

"Well, let's not talk about it now. There is plenty of time during the Chinese New Year." Du Youliang took his family of four to the grave, and they brought a lot of paper money. Pulling, also unable to turn around.

After going down the mountain, Du Youquan murmured, "I brought a lot of good things, why don't you send some to our parents?"

"Shut up, we're all separated, and it's not a rare thing." Du Youde stopped the fifth child from speaking.

Even if he sent it over, with Qi's temperament, he would definitely not want it, so why bother?

It's good for everyone to live their own lives like this. Whether Du Youliang's past is good or bad is his own, and it has nothing to do with others.Du Youzhong could only sigh inwardly, some things are really hard to say, the way of life is different, and one cannot force others to live the same way as oneself.

It is not easy to go up the mountain. Although it is winter on the mountain, there are some burrs hanging on the clothes and trousers.When he came back, Du Yu picked up several of them from his trousers. Although this is the way this kind of creature spreads, it is also annoying. Thinking of Second Aunt and the others still wearing silk clothes, if it is stained, it will , won’t snag, it’s simply too wasteful.What did you wear so well in the last grave?

Could it be that she knew they were all on the mountain and would run into each other, so she dressed like that on purpose, just to show off?Now that the family is separated, our life will get better and better?
