Chapter 50 Ready to Return to the Village
As soon as Xiang Guan got home, he closed the doors and windows, and then took out the snail noodles that he had been craving for a long time from his backpack, and prepared to cook a big bowl at noon, with green vegetables, perfect!
Fortunately, the smell of the snail powder in the bag is not particularly strong. Turn on the fan and blow it for half an hour.

After eating snail noodles, Xiang Wan sighed contentedly, and then went back to his room to take a nap.

In the afternoon, I went to the movies with Wu Yan. The movie theaters of this era are very old, the curtains are quite blurry, and the sound is very noisy. However, everyone except Xiang Wan watched it with gusto, but Xiang Wan couldn't stand it.

For the next few days, Xiang Guan did his homework at home, and Wu Yan also went back to his hometown.

Xiang Xiong arrived home at [-]:[-] p.m. on the third day, carrying large and small bags in his left and right hands, and a pannier on his back.

While helping him unload things, Xiang Wan asked, "Dad, what did you bring back? Why do you still have a basket?"

Xiang Xiong smiled and said: "The village brought eggs, Chinese cabbage and potatoes for the family, and the back basket was full of tea. The village head specially left it for me. When I came back, Xiao Peng brought me a lot of mountain products and road trips. I bought toffee and said you should like it."

Xiang Wan looked at the box full of white rabbit toffee that Xiang Xiong took out, and was startled.

Xiang Xiong thought that his daughter didn't like it, so he hurriedly said, "I remember you liked to eat this when you were young, but our family couldn't afford too much when you were young."

"I like it now, but now that I'm grown up, I will be laughed at by others if I like sweets."

Xiang Xionghu glared at him: "Who says you can't eat candy when you're older? You think that I like to eat candy when I'm so old. Let me see who dares to be blind. If you like it, you can eat it. Dad will give it to you after eating it." purchase!"

"it is good."

Seeing his daughter's promise, Xiang Xiong quickly restored his smile, pointed to the basket and said, "The village chief left me a lot of tea this time, and I don't want the tea from Xiao Peng's place. I will go to Mr. Qi's place the day after tomorrow and give him more tea." , he loves to drink this tea."

"Okay, I'm going to find a bag to pack it now," Xiang Wan said as he walked to the utility room to find a bag that looked very suitable for packing, and went back to the dining table to pack about five catties of tea.

A basket of tea was tightly packed, weighing nearly thirty catties.

Afterwards, the father and daughter sorted and arranged the things they brought back, and the white rabbit toffee Xiang Wan put it in the cabinet next to the dining table.

When Xiang Xiong came out of the shower, he saw his daughter tidying up the house, and said distressedly: "Just leave the things and let dad clean them up."

"It's not tiring, it's a smooth thing."

Xiang Xiong had no choice but to say these things many times this year, but his daughter was too sensible, and it didn't work if he said it himself, so he had to do his best in daily life so that she could clean it up.

"What food do you have at home? How about going to a restaurant to eat at night?"

In the past few days when Xiang Xiong was not at home, Xiang Wan used the platform to exchange food for three meals a day. Now that there is no food at home, he thought about it and said, "Dad, why don't you take two lunch boxes and go to the restaurant to order two dishes. Come back? I cook at home."

"Alright, then I'll go out and buy it now."

After Xiang Xiong left, Xiang Wan went to cook rice, and by the way, washed the dirty clothes that Xiang Xiong had brought back to dry.

Xiang Wan actually likes this era quite a lot. Whether it's the simple people or the high-quality air, Xiang Wan is happy. The only inconvenience is that there are no smart home appliances, and he has to do everything himself.

There are still many years away from smart home appliances, so wait slowly!

When Xiang Xiong came back from buying the hot dishes, the rice would be ready for a while, and the father and daughter sat at the dining table talking.

"After the results come out in two days, we will take some time to go back to the village and see when your Uncle Deng is free."

Deng Zhike and Xiang Xiong came from the same village. They played very hard when they were young. According to Xiang Xiong, Deng Zhike loved to chase after him and play after him when he was naked. The two are iron brothers with bare pants!
Xiang Wan nodded: "Uncle Deng is going back too? Where's Auntie Pei Rong? Is their unit fake?"

"I don't know about this, but they have to go back to the village for a few days every summer vacation. There are still old people in their hometown, so they have to go back and have a look."

Xiang Wan continued to ask: "Is our old house still inhabitable? How long will we stay there?"

"I can live. The village repairs the house every year. The village head of our house asked someone to replace the beams. I left the key to them when I went last year. They will go to the old house to weed when they are empty."

After speaking, Xiang Xiong thought for a while and continued: "Let's go back and stay for five days this time. There is nothing interesting in the countryside, and you will probably be bored if you stay here."

Xiang Wan has never been to his hometown, so he doesn't know what it looks like, but through Xiang Xiong's few words, what Xiang Wan can confirm is that the people in his hometown are very easy to get along with.

After the father and daughter finished talking, the rice was ready, and the two went back to their room to rest after dinner.

In the early morning, it was raining lightly outside. Xiang Wan was woken up by the ticking sound and couldn't sleep anymore. The foggy weather outside covered the surrounding houses with a layer of mosaic, which made people feel unreal.

Xiang Wan went back to the bed and continued to lie down. After a while, he heard noises from outside. It was probably Xiang Xiong who got up to make breakfast. Xiang Wan woke up early, put on his clothes and went out.

"Did Dad disturb you?"

Xiang Wan shook his head, yawned and walked towards the toilet, while replying in a strong nasal voice: "It's raining outside, tick-tock-tick."

Xiang Xiong smiled immediately, pointed to Xiang Wan's doting face and said: "You, you have been like this since you were a child, you will wake up whenever it rains outside, but it doesn't matter if it rains, if it's hot for so many days, you should end up It’s raining, otherwise the crops in the field will be in order.”

"Father still knows about crops?"

Xiang Xiong chuckled, with pride in his tone: "Your father, I grew up in the countryside. After being able to run and dance, I often helped the family with farm work. At that time, your grandparents were still there, and they took me to play in the fields all day long. Son, told me a lot of knowledge about the land."

"Dad is amazing."

Xiang Xiong's parents were injured during the ten-year turmoil, and Xiang Wan's mother's parents also died when Xiang Wan was two or three years old. Later, Xiang Wan's mother also passed away due to illness. The entire Xiang family is now Only Xiang Xiong, Xiang Wan and a cousin whom he hadn't seen for more than ten years were still alive.

According to Xiang Xiong, the cousin suddenly disappeared one day more than ten years ago, and the family had to give up after searching for a long time.

According to Xiang Wan's analysis, that uncle had been a top student since he was a child, and he disappeared just a year before the turmoil. Although his family was not a landlord, he had small assets, so he probably got wind of it and went abroad.

Fortunately, the people in the rural villages were nice, and the Xiang family had suffered a lot on the surface during that time, but in private, everyone didn't treat them as enemies.

But these are all guesses made by Xiang Wan through Xiang Xiong's description.
