Fortunately, my uncle's house is not too far away, and it is only a road away from here. When Shi Yinuo and Confinement passed by, the aunt was preparing lunch. Every household in Shijia Village had their own vegetable field in front of them. They could plant whatever they like, and they could save money from going to the far market to buy vegetables.

When the aunt saw Shi Yinuo coming, she smiled and quickly put down the leeks in her hand, wiped her hands on her apron, "Yinuo is here, I originally wanted to wrap the dumplings and call you, but I didn't expect you to come so early."

Xiaolei, who was doing homework, also walked out of the house and said hello, "Brother."

This kid is only familiar with Shi Yinuo today, but he still talks very little, and his personality is far from her sister Xiaofan. Shi Yinuo also nodded and greeted her.

"Where is your dad?"

Xiaolei looked around and shook his head. The aunt pointed outside. When he was about to say something, his uncle came back. He was carrying a few kilograms of raw meat in his hand. Seeing Shi Yinuo seemed very friendly. Shi Yinuo even more confused about what this uncle had to do with them. He had never heard from his grandfather that he had other brothers.

"Yinuo, your aunt made dumplings at noon and ate a few more bowls."

"That's right, you're so old, but the first time you're back to our Shijia Village. I asked your uncle to buy meat in the morning and make a meal at noon."

There is nothing good in the poor valley. A meal of pork dumplings is the thing they can do best. Shi Yinuo was a little moved and didn't know what to say. He nodded hard.

"Okay, I'll have lunch at your house at noon."

"Hahahaha..." The uncle gave people a very generous feeling since he first came into contact with him. He walked over and patted Shi Yinuo on the shoulder, as if he was very satisfied with his nephew. "Why are you polite to me? We are all family. My uncle knows that you are a talented person who has returned from studying abroad. He gave us Shi parents a face. He said to Xiaolei when he has time, and he said, "This kid doesn't take a good job in school and has never passed the exam. He almost got angry with a heart attack."

This immediately made Xiaolei unhappy, "Oh Dad, can you not mention the school matter? Brother Yinuo is a student, but I am not. He is so angry when he sees the book."

"Hey, you kid, don't study hard and prepare to stay in the mountains all your life? How great is the city? I didn't hear your uncle say you don't have to go out when you live in the city to use the toilet. There is air conditioning in summer and heating in winter."

Xiaolei shook his head helplessly and didn't want to say anything to his father, so he simply turned around and left here. The uncle sighed and frowned, "Xiaolei's child seems to be not a good student. He can do something for you normally. He is more delicate than both your aunt and me, but as long as he enters the school, even the teacher is worried."

Shi Yinuo smiled and said nothing, "Where is Xiaofan?"

My uncle looked at the front yard and back yard, "It should be at home. Xiaofan is okay to study. It seems that the couple will point to Xiaofan for retirement in the future."

At this time, Xiaolei's shout came from the room, "My sister will be married sooner or later. Is it shameless to ask him to support you in my old age?"

The aunt covered her mouth and smiled and pointed inside, "Xiao Lei is a filial child and always rushes to do work."

The uncle's face darkened and glared at the aunt, "That's because he doesn't want to do his homework!"

"Okay, okay, whatever you say is what you say." After saying that, my aunt shouted to the backyard, "Xiaofan, Xiaofan? Your elder brother is here, come here quickly."

"Here you come."

I don’t know what Xiaofan is doing in the backyard. When I heard her aunt call her and ran back immediately. Her hands were still wet and didn’t care about wiping each other. Shi Yinuo smiled, “Brother, are you here? I was just washing clothes.”

Shi Yinuo said his purpose. Of course, his uncle would not refuse to let Xiaofan take Shi Yinuo to the new country to see it. But at this time, Xiaolei rushed out of the house without stopping, saying that he could also do the task. He even looked at Shi Yinuo with a pleading face, obviously tortured by his homework.

"What are you going? Your sister knows the way to your Xinguo uncle's house and goes back to do her homework."

"Can't you finish writing your homework after you get back?"

"No, no negotiation."

My aunt's decisive tone made Xiaolei completely desperate. As soon as she was about to go back, she heard Shi Yinuo say, "Let Xiaofan and Xiaolei accompany me together, it's just right to be familiar with them."

After hearing this, the uncle looked at his aunt in a controversial tone, but the aunt couldn't refuse. The four of them went out and Xiaofan walked to the west of the village. The rare freedom made Xiaolei's impression of this elder brother instantly. On the way, Xiaofan asked Shi Yinuo curiously.

"Brother, I heard you just came back from studying abroad?"

Shi Yinuo looked at Xiaofan with a smile, "Who did you hear me?"

"Listen to my dad, who else can I listen to? Since you came back yesterday, you have been talking to us two, saying how smart you are and how able you can get into a prestigious university abroad, so that we can study with you." After Xiaolei said that, he rubbed his head as if he was very painful.

Xiaofan also nodded, "It's true that I heard from my dad. My dad was my grandfather. By the way, is the university abroad good? Will you not be used to Western food?"

Shi Yinuo shook his head, "There are also Chinese foods, and I don't like them and can still make them by myself. Foreign universities are very relaxed in their students' extracurricular life. As long as you don't break the law, you can set up street stalls at school."

"Wow..." Xiaofan was very envious of his hearing, "It would be great if our domestic universities were the same. Not to mention cooking, it would be impossible to bring a hairdryer into the dormitory."

"Do you want to study abroad?"

"I……"

Shi Yinuo asked casually, but Xiaofan's face turned dimmed. Although she didn't say anything, she could tell that she yearned for a life where she could study abroad, but her family was not allowed. In this poor mountain valley of Shijia Village, it was considered a good family background, let alone studying abroad, which was a fantasy for them.

"I don't want to go too far from home, hehe..."

Xiaofan perfectly hid his true thoughts, but he could not deceive Shi Yinuo's eyes and could only sigh in his heart that his cousin was more sensible than most people.

Along the way, I saw that many households around me were empty. The weeds in front of the door were growing wildly. The door was closed, and the earth walls that were almost collapsed were shaking, as if a heavy rain could turn them into ruins at any time. Xiaolei was holding a dog-tail grass in his mouth. Seeing Shi Yinuo's eyes were stuck on those houses that were not living in, pointing to the surroundings.

“In recent years, many people have moved out of Shijia Village.”

"Then why don't you move out?"

Xiaolei chuckled, "Brother, do you know Emperor Hui of Jin?"

Shi Yinuo also laughed and nodded to show his understanding, "Is it the emperor who has no grains in the world that have no food to eat and ask the people why they don't eat meat?"

Xiaolei nodded violently, "Brother, you are like the Emperor Hui of Jin. Those who can move out of the village can afford a house in the city. Do you think our family can afford a house in the city? The down payment for a house costs more than 100,000 yuan, and I can't afford it even if I sell my sister and I."

It was noon, and the scorching sun was hanging high in the sky, and the scorching sun burned everything on the earth. However, it was strange that Shijia Village, located in Yushan, was not hot at all, and was even a little cold in short-sleeved clothes. He said this and walked to the door of Uncle Xinguo's house. There was also a vegetable field here, but it looked like no one had taken care of it for a long time. The weeds grew more vigorously than vegetables and were eaten seriously by insects.

As soon as Shi Yinuo was about to enter, he saw a fat woman walking out. She was about the same age as Baoliang's aunt, but her hair was messy and her face was haggard, and her expression was very bad. She seemed to have some serious illness. She was stunned for a few seconds when she saw Shi Yinuo and then rushed up to hug Shi Yinuo and cried.

"Wuwuwuwuwu... You finally came back. I thought you would never come back in your life." After crying, he looked at Shi Yinuo's face and pulled it in without any hesitation. "I have lost weight, but I have grown taller. Are you hungry? Come in and I will cook for you."

The eyes of Continent were cold and he didn't care who the woman was, so he wanted to pull it away. Shi Yinuo stopped Continent from Continent and asked him to see it before talking. Xiaolei, who was following behind, quickly pulled the woman.

"Aunt, you made a mistake again. This is not your son, this is my eldest brother Yin Nuo."

"What? Not my son?"

Xiaofan looked at the woman and nodded, and explained to Shi Yinuo, "Brother, this is the aunt of the new country. A few years ago, their son didn't learn well and followed the people in the outside world. The aunt was so anxious that she fell ill and didn't even recognize anyone. She often regarded others as her son."

After hearing this, Shi Yinuo's face became gloomy. He stopped Xiaolei who was still trying to explain and prepared the woman's hair covering her face, "You are not wrong. I am your son. Let's go back."

"Oh, okay! I just said, how could I even admit my own son?" The woman laughed immediately when she heard Shi Yinuo admit that it was her son, but her eyes were still staring at her feet empty. She was obviously already dementia, but the disease of dementia did not seem to be something that a person in his forties would suffer from.

There are only two brick and tile houses in the new country. The Wuling Hongguang parked in the yard, but did not see the New Guo uncle. I don’t know where he went. I opened the door and saw the canvas bag still in the car. I took it down and looked at Shi Yinuo with expressionless expression.

"Let's go."

When the woman heard that her son was leaving, she pulled Shi Yinuo's arm tighter, "Where are you going when you have just come back and haven't eaten yet? I'll cook for you in the kitchen."

Shi Yinuo was also helpless, "Mom, go and cook, I won't leave, it's here, you can see me in the kitchen."

The woman thought about it skeptically, and slowly let go, Yinuo went to the kitchen to work hard. Xiaolei searched for a long time but couldn't find Uncle Xin Guo. When he came back, he shook his head, "Uncle Xin Guo may have gone to the chicken farm. His family has a chicken farm, and the car is for the chicken farm."

Confinement, lit a cigarette, squatted in the yard and looked at the sky quietly, "When can I leave?"

Xiaofan thought for a while, "If you don't wait, maybe Uncle Xin Guo will be back in a while."

After half an hour, Uncle Xin Guo didn't wait to come back. The kitchen was ready for the meal. The woman excitedly brought out several bowls from the kitchen and sent chopsticks to everyone. She didn't understand the meaning of staying here at all, so she didn't answer.

"I'm not hungry."

The woman happily handed over the chopsticks, "You are my son's friend, let's eat some together."

"I'm not hungry." The same without any emotional tone, the confinement was repeated again.

The woman still insisted on holding on to the chopsticks and "eat something."
