The day after talking with Xia Xing, Gu Yinan cleaned up the house and returned the rent, and then returned to his hometown with his luggage.

My hometown is located in a small town in the suburban county below City C, which is thousands of miles away. I took a plane and then took a bus. After a lot of trouble, I returned to my hometown in the evening. I walked along a country road full of weeds to the village. Walking, golden rice fields can be seen everywhere in the village.

Walking along the bluestone path in memory to the Gu family in the village, I met several grandparents in the village on the way.

"Is this the Gu family's granddaughter Nannan?"

"Nannan, you've grown so tall? You've grown beautiful again."

The old people in the village seem to have a unique way of greeting each other. Every year when Gu Yinan comes back, he hears the same greeting.

"Nannan, are you going back to your hometown to see your grandma?"

"Yes." Gu Yinan greeted the mother-in-law in the village with a smile, "It's getting dark, mother-in-law, walk slowly."

"We've been on this road for decades, it's fine."

"Nannan, go home quickly, your grandma probably already made dinner."

"Eh." Gu Yinan dragged her luggage and walked to the big pear tree not far away. The lush pear tree covered a small green brick courtyard, which was the home she thought about day and night. After entering the house, I saw my grandmother feeding the chickens with an iron pot, and a dozen jute chickens surrounded her to grab food.

When Gu Yinan was less than three years old, his father died in an accident, and his mother ran away with others not long after, and never came back. She was brought up by her grandparents. The two of them have lived together for many years. When she entered the world of immortality, she was most worried about her grandmother, who was 70 years old. Now that she can come back, she will come back to visit her as soon as possible.

The moment he saw his grandma now, Gu Yinan couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, "Grandma."

Grandma Gu gave the chicken a pause and looked at her in shock, "Nannan?"

"Grandma." Gu Yinan put down his luggage and ran over to hug grandma, "Did grandma miss me?"

Grandma Gu put down the basin in her hand and held her hand in her hands with joy. "Why did you come back, girl? You didn't say anything when you called me a few days ago."

"I want to give you a surprise!" Gu Yinan didn't say anything about his unemployment, and wanted to say it after a while.

Grandma Gu is now immersed in the joy of her granddaughter returning home.

Gu Yinan smiled and shook his head and said, "I'm not tired, just a little hot."

"It's really hot today, and it might rain heavily at night, so take your salute and put it in the house." Grandma Gu said and went to the kitchen, "Hey, you came back suddenly, and there's nothing at home, fortunately last winter I haven't finished the bacon sausage, so I'll wash two pieces and cook them to eat."

Gu Yinan responded, and went upstairs with a salute from the stairs in the room on the right. The stairs were facing the unsealed balcony. There were three rooms in the balcony. Old houses for more than 20 years are built like this. They are not closed houses, with three rooms at the bottom and three rooms at the top.

This house was built by her father when she was two years old. Not long after it was repaired, the coal kiln where her father worked had an accident. However, the investigation found that the accident was caused by her father's illegal operation, and the coal kiln humanitarian lost 10,000 yuan. Don't ask anymore. It didn't take long for her mother to run away with someone, and she never came back since. The originally happy family fell apart.

In her childhood memory, there are no parents, only grandparents and this two-story old-fashioned building devoted to her father's efforts. Later, when grandpa was gone, she and grandma were the only ones who depended on each other for life.

Pushing aside a room in the corner, the room is clean, old-fashioned bed, old-fashioned wardrobe, old-fashioned table, there are many books on the table, and there is a beige lace gauze on it, used for Block out dust.

Everything is the same as before.

She has come back.

very nice.

After a while, a small dining table was set up under the pear tree. The table was full of vegetables, steamed sausages, preserved pork ribs, garlic eggplants, cucumbers, and stir-fried vegetables. In the countryside, everything was lacking, except for vegetables. The fields in front of and behind the house are full of all kinds of vegetables. Vegetables without pesticides and chemical fertilizers taste fragrant, sweet and delicious.

The two happily finished their meal, washed the dishes, took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and sat in the yard to enjoy the shade. After dark, the village mountain was windy, and the cool wind quickly blew away the remaining heat in the air. The four wild insects were chirping, and there were occasional dog barks.

Gu Yinan looked at the sparsely lit houses in the village. There are basically no young and middle-aged people in the village. All of them have gone to work in the city. Old people live in the village with their children, and there are less than 20 people in the whole village, which is very deserted.

"Grandma, no one stays in the village, right?"

Grandma Gu gently shook the bamboo fan, "I'm staying at home well, I'm not used to it if I don't go to your place."

After Gu Yinan graduated from university and got a stable job, she once persuaded her grandmother to go to City A with her, and the two of them lived together so that they could have someone to take care of, but her grandmother never agreed, saying that she was used to living in her hometown and that it was fine. Sometimes you can play a little mahjong with other old women, but if you go to a big city, you will not be used to it.

Gu Yinan snorted, "Then I'll go back to my hometown to accompany grandma."

Grandma Gu looked at her, "Have you been wronged outside?"

Gu Yinan smiled, not wanting to admit: "No."

Grandma Gu patted her back gently: "The child is fine, grandma is here."

The granddaughter was brought up by himself, so do you still know what kind of temperament she is? It must have been some kind of grievance outside the home, dragging the luggage home.

Grandma said this, Gu Yinan's heartache and longing for the past ten years turned into tears, and he reached out and hugged grandma and cried silently. In the world of immortality, where the strong are respected, crying is useless. Can endure, hide, hide, but it's different when she comes back here, she can be a little presumptuous in her grandmother's arms, and no one will laugh at her.

When his mood subsided, Gu Yinan told his grandma about his unemployment, "Grandma, I will stay at home from now on."

"good."

"Grandma, don't you dislike me?"

"What do you think you are doing?"

"I think I eat too much."

"You don't eat as much as Xiao Huang at home."

Xiao Huang is a Chinese pastoral dog that has been raised at home for several years. When he heard Grandma Gu call his name, he barked twice and responded.

With the night wind blowing, the heat dissipated, and the two mother-in-law and grandson went back to the house and closed the door to sleep.

After two consecutive days of exhaustion, Gu Yinan quickly fell into a deep sleep. He slept until nearly ten o'clock the next day before waking up. The sun shone into the room through the glass window, and beams of light fell on him. On the ground or in bed, she rubbed her sleepy eyes, rolled over and sat up.

She went downstairs with two pairs of cheap red slippers of ten dollars, ate the breakfast her grandmother left for her, and then walked to the vegetable garden behind the house. The water spinach in the vegetable garden was pinched once, leaving only a short One crop, and the rest of the eggplant, cucumber, and tomato juices are left with only some small fruits that have not grown up.

Gu Yinan glanced around, and then dodged into the space ring. Her space is not large, and the time inside is fixed, about a hundred square meters, which she got from an elder in Lingtian. The elders are related to the sect. He is not rare in this kind of small warehouse space of 100 square meters. What is rare is the space with Lingquan Tiandi Mountains in it.

However, Gu Yinan felt that having a small warehouse of 100 square meters was enough. After all, it would take a lot of spirit stones to buy a small space ring of 10 square meters outside.

The space was filled with her miscellaneous items, all of which were belongings she had found in the world of immortal cultivation. In one corner, there were a lot of jade stones of various colors, most of which were white jade with poor water color.

These jade stones are all spiritual stones used for cultivation in the world of immortals. They are all rich in spiritual energy. The darker the color, the more spiritual energy, the higher the quality, while the lighter the color and the worse the quality, the least spiritual energy.

This kind of white jade has the least spiritual energy, and people with good aptitude and resources are disliked by immortal cultivators, but for Gu Yinan, who has no resources, this is the best thing she has collected in the world of immortal cultivation. Fewer, but it is enough for the formation of Lingtian vegetable fields.

Gu Yinan picked out a second-class white jade, picked up a few more stones and placed them around, and placed the white jade containing spiritual energy at the eye of the array, and the spiritual energy array was completed.

In an instant, the breeze blew, and a faint aura enveloped the entire vegetable garden.

"It's done." Gu Yinan smiled, now waiting for the new dishes.

At this time, Gu Yinan heard the words coming from the front of the house, and ran back to the front of the house in a hurry. From a distance, he saw grandma and an old woman from the village walking over from the direction of the mountain carrying watermelons. The person is Granny Liu, who lives in the village. She has a good relationship with her grandmother. On weekdays, she always makes an appointment to go to the small town to go to the market or play mahjong.

Gu Yinan called out to the two of them, "Grandma, Grandma Liu."

Granny Liu: "Eh."

Grandma Gu: "What did you do after going to the house?"

Gu Yinan: "Go and see what dishes are available."

Grandma Gu: "There are vegetables at home."

Granny Liu came up and asked, "Nannan has grown beautiful again. Is her salary much better now?"

"Are you kidding me?"

"When are you going to get married?"

This is the lore three questions again! Gu Yinan smiled awkwardly and asked for help from grandma.

"Go and cut out the watermelon." Grandma Gu opened her mouth mercifully, and then called Grandma Liu to sit down, "Come and sit for a while, and then go back after a while."

Granny Liu sat down and said, "I'm very tired after walking for a while."

"Grandma, Granny Liu, eat watermelon." Gu Yinan brought out the cut watermelon and placed it among the several people. She ate a few mouthfuls of watermelon and felt it was not very sweet and a little bland.

"This watermelon is not sweet at all," said Granny Liu.

Grandma Gu also nodded, "It's still not as delicious as the ones bought outside."

Gu Yinan thought it was because he was used to eating foods with spiritual energy in the world of immortality, and then he felt that this watermelon was bland, but now he heard that grandma said it was not sweet, and only then did he realize that it was the problem of the watermelon itself, "Grandma, where did you buy it? "

Grandma Gu said, "I didn't buy it. Didn't the orchard in our village rent to Xiao Li and the others? They planted some watermelons on the edge of the orchard. They went to help with the work today, and they each gave us a watermelon."

Due to the call of the mayor, almost every household in Gu Yinan's town planted oranges, blood oranges, and some pears and plums. In response to the mayor's call, their family planted fruit trees on the land that could not be planted. , the taste is neither good nor bad. If it is cheap, there are still many people who buy it, and she can earn several thousand yuan all year round. She earned her tuition and living expenses by selling fruits and vegetables at home.

Later, when my grandmother got older and she also worked, she rented most of the orchards to a family from another town surnamed Li, who received 2,000 yuan in rent a year.

"Grandma, what are you doing in the fruit forest?" Gu Yinan asked.

Granny Liu said, "I'm afraid the pear bag will be blown away when it rains, so I have to fix it again. It costs 100 yuan a day, and I'll go back after lunch later."

Due to the presence of Granny Liu, Gu Yinan looked at Granny Gu with disapproval.

Grandma Gu turned her head away and pretended not to see it.

Granny Liu said, "It's raining a lot this year, and those pears aren't growing well. I'm going to lose money again this year. I hear Xiao Li's **** tone, like he thinks the rent is too expensive and doesn't want to rent."

Grandma Gu didn't care much, "If you don't rent it, don't rent it."

Granny Liu still wanted to speak, but a voice called for her to eat came from the direction of the village. She hurriedly got up and walked out with a watermelon in her hand, "I'm back, I'll call you again in the afternoon."

Grandma Gu responded, "Okay."

Gu Yinan copied his hands and looked at his grandma in disapproval: "Grandma, don't go to work at such an old age, what should you do if you are tired and fall down?"

"I'm not tired, and the pear tree isn't tall. I'll just stretch out my hand and fix it." Grandma Gu didn't want to continue this topic, she got up and walked towards the kitchen, "What do you want to eat at noon? I'll have someone cut two pounds of lean meat you like. Come back, would you like to fry a piece of **** and pork?"

Gu Yinan followed, "Grandma, don't change the subject."

Grandma Gu turned her head unhappily, "Do you want to eat fried pork with dried bamboo shoots?"

Gu Yinan shrank his neck, "..." You are old, you have the final say.
