Network New Liao Zhai

Chapter 801

Although Fu Lihong is still in the group, it's rare to see her bubbling. Not only did she bubble today, but she also @徐峰.

This is a little strange.

Fu Lihong@徐峰: "Brother Xu, can I ask you in private?"

Xu Feng: "No problem."

After a while, Xu Feng received a message from Fu Lihong adding him on WeChat, and he clicked to confirm.

"Brother Xu, hello, I didn't bother you, did I?"

"What did you say to bother me, you can remember Brother Xu, Brother Xu is very honored.

Xiaofu, how are you doing at home?How is your job going? "

"Thank you Brother Xu for your concern. I'm pretty good. Although the salary in my hometown is not as good as that in Jiangcheng, but fortunately, the standard of living is not high, so it's okay..."

Hearing what she said, Xu Feng thought to himself: This is a down-to-earth girl who will not aim too high.

I heard that some of her classmates persuaded her to stay in Jiangcheng to develop, but Fu Lihong insisted on going back to her hometown.

There are still parents to take care of in my hometown, and two younger sisters.

"Xiao Fu, as long as you think it's good. Is there anything you want from me?"

He took the initiative to bring up the topic.

When Fu Lihong @ him in the group, she said she had a question and asked for advice.

Xu Feng felt that whenever the word "ask for advice" was used, it meant that the matter was not that simple.

Moreover, it is impossible for a taciturn girl like Fu Lihong to take the initiative to chat with Xu Feng, there must be something important.

Fu Lihong, "Brother Xu, let me turn on the voice, so I can speak more clearly."

Xu Feng: "Okay."

Connect to voice.

Fu Lihong: "Brother Xu, it's like this. I have a middle school classmate, Chen Youfeng, and we are from the same village. We have an unusual relationship. It's just that after we were admitted to different universities, our communication was less, but we usually Get in touch on WeChat, and we can meet each other during the Chinese New Year.

After I graduated, I went back to my hometown to find a job. She told me that she wanted to stay in W City, where her university is located.During the Spring Festival, she went home to celebrate the New Year, and we met again..."

-----

Taoxian Village, Z County

Fu Lihong's home.

An ordinary farmyard.

The atmosphere of the New Year outside is strong, and there are traces of fireworks and firecrackers burning in the yard.

Hanging from the eaves are dried corn, red peppers, garlic...

Full of life.

Fu Lihong and her two younger sisters help their mother make dumplings in the kitchen.

She only had a holiday on the [-]th of the year yesterday, and came back from the county to celebrate the new year.

A voice came from outside the door: "Lihong, Lihong..."

Fu Lihong immediately recognized the voice of her good friend Chen Youfeng, she put down the dumpling wrapper in her hand and went out to greet her.

"There is a phoenix..."

"Li Hong..."

Two good friends hug each other.

Fu Lihong: "I was thinking of going to find you after making the dumplings, but I didn't expect you to come."

Fu Lihong's younger sister also came out to welcome her.

"Sister Feng, you are here, hurry up and sit in the room. Sister, Sister Feng came to ask you yesterday."

Chen Youfeng entered the room, and gave Fu Lihong's mother the present she was carrying, "Auntie, I wish you and uncle a happy new year. Here are some W's specialties for you."

Fu Lihong's mother wiped her hands on her apron and took the gift.

"Look at you, it's embarrassing to bring us something every time you come back."

"Auntie, you're offended by what you said. What is the relationship between our two families, and what is the relationship between me and Lihong? Lihong always buys for my parents every time she comes back."

Mom Fu: "Then I'll accept it. But don't spend money indiscriminately in the future. Although you also work, the girl's family is alone in a strange big city, and you have to spend money everywhere. You have to keep two Come on, don't spend all your money all at once... We have land and mountains at home, as long as we have the strength, we can fill our stomachs by planting any crops. You are different in the city, you need money for everything... ..."

Listening to Fu Lihong's mother's advice,

Chen Youfeng's eyes were a little moist.

She hurriedly asked under cover: "What about uncle, why didn't you see him?"

Fu's mother: "Lying in the house, it's cold outside, don't let him come out to blow air."

"It's okay, I'll go see him."

"Don't go, be careful to give you sickness."

"It's okay. Auntie, I'm in good health."

Chen Youfeng said as he walked towards the back room on his own.

Fu Lihong quickly followed.

In the inner room, Father Fu was lying on his side facing inside.

Chen Youfeng called softly: "Uncle."

no answer.

Fu Lihong: "Xu Shi fell asleep again. He coughed most of the night last night and didn't sleep well."

Chen Youfeng: "Then I won't quarrel with him, let him rest well."

Fu Lihong: "Let's go, let's make dumplings. We'll eat here at noon. My mother also left us spicy chicken."

The two came out to help, but were chased away by Fu's mother, "You two haven't seen each other for a long time, go talk, it's enough to have me and your sister here. I will call you when the dumplings are cooked."

Chen Youfeng did have something to say to Fu Lihong, so he didn't insist, and the two went to Fu Lihong's room.

Chen Youfeng used to come to Fu Lihong's room often.

To be precise, this should be the room shared by Fu Lihong and her two younger sisters.

The room is very simple. After installing two beds, a cabinet and a table, there is not much free space.

Of course, Chen Youfeng played and even stayed here in the past. The girls played and played and had a lot of good times.

The relationship between Fu and Chen's family is the closest in the village.

Fu Lihong's father and Chen Youfeng's father are brothers who are too good to wear a pair of pants.

Fu Lihong's mother and Chen Youfeng's mother were from the same village. They were good sisters when they were in their natal family, and they married together in Taoxian Village, so their relationship is naturally better than others.If there is anything, the two families help each other.

This relationship has continued to their next generation, Fu Lihong and Chen Youfeng.

The two are about the same age, go to school together, cut pigweed together and go up the mountain to collect firewood together.

We went to college together again.

Just not in a city.

Chen Youfeng almost missed the university.

Z County is originally a poor county, and Taoxian Village is even more impoverished.

Although Taoxian Village has a nice name.

But it has nothing to do with peach trees at all.

There are no peach trees in Taoxian Village, and the biggest product is stones.

Because Taoxian Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, it is that kind of bare big rock, except for weeds and thorns, it is not suitable for growing trees at all, let alone peach trees.

It stands to reason that these stones cannot be sold for money when they are mined.

There is also a quarry in the village.

But in the past because of traffic inconvenience.Even if the stones are mined, they cannot be transported out!

How much income can you earn by relying on the sales volume of rickshaws or horse-drawn carts?

Therefore, Taoxian Village is also a poor village in Z County.Guarding the cornucopia but can't dig it!

Later, the county decided to build the road.

As long as the road leading to Taoxian Village is built, Taoxian Village can rely on the mountains to eat mountains, and a large amount of stones will be mined and shipped out.

In the year when Chen Youfeng and the others were admitted to university, the road was repaired.In order to save tuition fees for their two children, Fu Lihong's father and Chen Youfeng's father went to work in the quarry.

Unexpectedly, Chen Youfeng's father fell and injured. Although his life was not in danger, his leg was injured and he could no longer work in the quarry.

The family suddenly lost its strong labor force, and at the same time lost a large source of income.The wages in the quarry are still considerable.

When Chen Youfeng saw her father lying on the bed, she said she couldn't go to college and stayed at home to take care of her parents, as well as her younger siblings.
