Chapter 334
Although the country road in this mountain is narrow and winding, it is not easy to drive at all, but it is not without some benefits.

At least, this road leads to the door of every family in the mountain, and it can be regarded as providing the greatest convenience for the villagers living in the mountain.

Chu Ning got out of the car and found that there were several old houses nearby, but most of them were deserted, not to mention covered with weeds, and many houses even collapsed more or less. It seemed that no one lived in them for many years pass.

Counting them in detail, there is only an old house in front of them, which is fairly tidy and clean, with a bit of air.

The old house looked very old, but it was very large, with four main rooms and two side rooms beside it.

This wing room used to be the owner's bedroom, but now there is only one old man who is nearly 80 years old living in the old house, and these wing rooms have been converted into chicken coops and sheep pens.

That's right, even though there is only one 80-year-old old man living here, but he is still in good health, and he raised a dozen chickens and a dozen sheep by himself!

Both Chu Ning and Meng Dongyue were somewhat shocked.

Both of them grew up in the city, and had never seen the real countryside much, let alone such a place so remote that almost no one lived there.Especially seeing that the old man is so old, not only raising chickens and sheep, but even growing vegetables, it is even more incredible.

If this is in the city, if an old man of this age doesn't take good care of it, his whole body will probably suffer from problems everywhere. How can he dare to let the old man do so much farm work? !

When the two were shocked, Tao Fei had already chatted with the old man familiarly.

The old man's surname is Li. He was a soldier when he was young and participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.Now that I am old, although the allowances for the elderly are not much, there are many types. If they are all added up, there will be at least 7000 yuan a year, and sometimes nearly [-] yuan.

In addition, he also raises chickens and sheep, and his income throughout the year is no worse than that of young people who go out to work.

All the money was collected by himself, and no one cared about it.

Uncle Li has two sons and three daughters, all of whom work and live in Hanzhou City.His sons and daughters are also very filial, and they repeatedly proposed to take the old man to live in the city, but the old man himself refused.

Uncle Li had also been to the city, but he was really not used to living in the city, so he quietly ran back by himself within a few days.

His children couldn't persuade him, and there was really nothing they could do, so they had to come back alone every week to check on the old man's physical condition, and then bring some food for the old man to ensure the health and safety of the old man.

Mr. Li also promised his children that in a few years, if he really can't do farm work anymore, he will definitely live in the city with his children.

"Uncle Li, have you told your son and daughter about our matter?" Tao Fei asked, "If something happens in the future, don't think that we are here to lie to you!"

"What are you talking about? They're all busy. I can make the decision myself!" Uncle Li said with a smile, "In my old house, there are some worthless things. I really want to let you change things. It’s all my luck to exchange some money for it!”

Uncle Li's old house was originally a very ordinary brick and tile house, and some unimportant walls were even made of a mixture of bamboo strips and mud. It must have shortcomings everywhere in terms of anti-theft.

I really want to put some valuable things in this old house, I guess Uncle Li himself is not at ease!

As far as his own private money is concerned, it is the most tightly hidden, and it is estimated that even a mouse can't find it!
Don't look at Uncle Li as old, but his heart is clear!
"In that case, let's go in." Tao Fei said with a smile, "Don't worry, we just want to exchange some old things from the past, and the valuable ones come second. The main thing is that they are rarely seen outside."

"I know." Uncle Li knocked on the local bong in his hand, with a look of "I understand", "You city children, you just want to be curious, and you have to get something different from others. Years ago At that time, there were several groups of young people who brought some iron racks, meat skewers, etc., drove several cars and tried their best to run in. They had to get some barbecue on the hill behind my house, and they almost didn’t burn it. Half a mountain! But it scared a lot of people! If you want me to say, this is idle!"

barbecue? !
Chu Ning's eyes lit up.

Not to mention, in such a quiet place, if there are three or five friends who make a barbecue, it will definitely feel great!
However, fire accidents and the like must be avoided!

Meng Dongyue saw what she was thinking, and whispered: "Don't worry, we will have opportunities in the future. If you want to come out to eat barbecue, Junior Sister, Senior Brother will find you a good place when the time comes!"

Chu Ning patted Meng Dongyue's shoulder appreciatively.

It really is a great thing in the world to have a senior brother who is knowledgeable, knowledgeable and willing to work hard!

After Tao Fei and Uncle Li made it clear, he waved to Meng Dongyue and led them into the house.

Uncle Li was smoking a pipe, and followed them slowly.

Although he knew that there was nothing of value in his house, but this ruined house was worth a lot, so of course he had to help others keep an eye on it, so that these young people would not know the importance and make a mess of his house.

"Young Master Meng, you should see for yourself. Try not to mess up other people's houses." Tao Fei said, "If you fancy something, just tell me and I'll talk to Uncle Li. "

Meng Dongyue waved his hand to show that he knew.

Chu Ning, who was on the side, had already started to look at the situation in the room.

The room was not big at all, and there were scattered farm tools and simple wooden tables and benches inside, many of which were covered with dust.Obviously, it is impossible for the host to clean so many rooms by himself, so those dusty things are not commonly used.

The first room they entered was the living room, also called the main room in the country.In the main room, there is only one light bulb hanging in the middle, and the switch is hung down by a long strip of cloth, which can be pulled by raising one's hand.

For Uncle Li who lives alone, such a light switch method is indeed quite suitable.

The modern farm tools were swept away by Chu Ning, and her eyes were mainly focused on the wooden furniture in the room.

The main reason is that apart from the furniture which is a bit interesting, there is really no need to look at the other things in this room, just to know that they have absolutely nothing to do with antiques.

It's a pity that the furniture in the main room is only two old wooden tables and a few old benches, the workmanship is very rough, it should be made by the craftsmen in the countryside, and they have survived for decades at most.

Moreover, the wood materials of the wooden tables and benches are also very common, that is, the common poplar in the countryside, which is also not surprising.

Generally speaking, such furniture can be seen everywhere in the countryside, and any family can find a few.
