"It's all right!" Xu Guodong took out a key with a string at the end of the TV cabinet, handed it to Xie Zheng, then picked up a flashlight from the table and walked out with him, "Why are you here by yourself, where is Xu Ning?"

"I'm waiting at the door of my house, my classmate sent me here."

The two walked out, and the three children of Xu Guodong's family followed behind.

"What are you going to do if you three are not having dinner at home?" He turned around and glared.

The three children didn't say anything else, and they didn't leave. After that, Xu Guodong was too lazy to care. Anyway, he went to wait for them to live, and he had to come back to continue eating.

"You two have dinner. Come to my brother's house tonight and ask your sister-in-law to cook two more dishes."

"It's okay for us. I brought some when I came here. Let's have dinner with my sister-in-law tomorrow. I just heard you say that you can still cook at home?"

"Yes, there is a gas stove that has been placed there all the time. Sometimes your sister-in-law's parents come here and live here at night. After all, your house is one of the best spacious in the village now."

When the two came here, Xu Guodong greeted Xu Ning with a smile.

"Why did you think of going back to the village to take a look?"

"We haven't been back for many years. This time we have time for National Day, so come and have a walk."

"It's time to come back and have a look. You haven't been back for seven or eight years, right?"

"Probably, right."

Xu Guodong told them that some of the young people in the village went to the mayor or county, and the better ones went to the city, but most of them continued to stay in the village for generations.

Of course, life is much better now than before. Every household has spare money, but if there are still children going to school, you still have to stick your butt and make money hard.

After entering the door, Xu Guodong opened the door with a flashlight and turned on the lights at home. Perhaps because he was used to using LED lights, the lights in the old house gave people a dim feeling and did not seem so clear.

At the same time, because of this old house, the two of them missed infinitely.

There are a lot of peanuts piled up in the yard. Of course, there are corn cobs in a raincoat in the corner of the wall. These corn cobs are usually stored for cooking in winter, and they are crushed and fed chickens and ducks.

Xu Guodong pointed it out to them, "You can eat any peanuts, just cook them in the pot at night, and you don't have to go outside to bring them to the fire. There are corn cobs there, so use them casually. Whatever you want to eat at night, say what you have at home, and I'll send them here."

"Please trouble Brother Guodong. We will take it. Just solve it. Go to the market tomorrow and come to have lunch at noon." Xie Zheng looked at Zhou Tao, "Come here to stay at noon tomorrow."

"Okay!" Zhou Tao nodded. Seeing that there was not much in the house, he wanted to ask the two of them to go to the Zhou family to rest, but Xie Zheng refused before, "You settle down, then Ye Ling and I will go back too. We will still be the same rule tomorrow. See you at the entrance of the village and go to the market together."

"Okay, I'll give it to you."

After seeing off Zhou Tao's family, the two talked to Xu Guodong for a while. He also took his three children home. After all, he didn't even have any meals. Besides, Xie Zheng and his wife had to eat early and rest.

The two of them were soon left in the old house. Xu Ning took out the bedding in the space and spread it on the kang. These were brand new bedding that had not been used. When she came, she stuffed it into the space. Now she can take it out and use it directly.

Xie Zheng stood beside him and watched her work on the kang, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

"I've already prepared it when I came. I don't have to cook tonight. You go outside to sort it out. Let's eat it in the yard later." After that, she looked out the window, "I don't know if there are any mosquitoes here. I also brought insecticide. Before eating, spray it in the room. Even if there are no mosquitoes, there may be other small insects, just in case."

"good!"

Xie Zheng turned around and went out. There was a small dining table at home. It should be Xu Guodong put it here, so he could just hold it and use it.

On the rural night in October, the moon above your head is clearly visible. Unless the weather in today's imperial capital is particularly good, it will be gray when looking up. Not to mention the stars, you can't even see the moon.

Standing on the land of Xiangshan Village, looking up, the sky is full of stars and tranquility.

When I walked to the machine well, there was half a bucket of water next to it, and two dead leaves were floating on it.

He bent down and took out the dead leaves from it, picked up the bucket and poured it into the well, then pressed it a few times, and the water was pumped from the ground and soon poured out.

Suddenly I thought of when I was young, I occasionally saw Xu Ning who had just taken a shower. At that time, she was a delicate little girl, with her long wet hair spread on her slender back, and a faint fragrance could be smelled by her side, mixed with the fragrance of soap beans, which made him dizzy.

The water that had just been pumped up was cool, so I lifted up the water to wash my face, and I felt sober in an instant.

Xu Ning laid out the bedding, then rolled it up from the end and leaned against the wall, took out a bottle of insecticide from the space, sprayed both sides of the room, and then closed the door and came out.

Before coming, she cooked a lot of meals in the space, and kept them for the past few days. Of course, she would be entertained at home at noon tomorrow, so she would naturally have to cook them in stock.

"The air here is so good!" Xu Ning also sighed in his tone, "I wanted to come back and develop it before, but I found that I was reluctant to destroy the environment here."

Xie Zheng came over and sat opposite her, looking up at Fanxing above her head with her, "Rare tranquility."

The food was taken out of the space, but it was the same as when I first put it in.

Xie Zheng looked at the three dishes in front of him and it was enough for the two of them to eat.

The two of them were listening to the sound of insects coming from somewhere and were eating supper slowly.

After dinner, Xie Zheng cleaned the dishes and the two leaned together and whispered.

It was not until almost ten o'clock in the evening that the room was breathed and fell asleep.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the two got up and washed up, and then received a call from Zhou Tao. They had already started going out, asking them to hurry up too.

After closing the door and locking it, Xie Zheng and Xu Ning walked out of the house hand in hand and headed to the main road at the entrance of the village.

The villagers who got up early to come out to cook were surprised when they saw Xie Zheng and his wife. Whose relatives were these? Why haven’t they seen them before?

We waited until the two of us walked away before we went home and talked to our family.

When the two of them came over, Zhou Tao's family had not arrived yet. After all, there were almost three or four miles to reach the village there.

It took about fifteen minutes before I saw the family coming late.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Zhou Tao said with a smile.

"It's not long before, let's go, I thought you would drive here."

"Don't you have dinner at your house at noon? I thought we would definitely not be able to drive if we had a few sips. Besides, we spent most of our time sitting around for the years we worked. I didn't see that I had beer belly anymore, so it would be nice to walk around more."

Xie Zheng looked down at Zhou Tao's lower abdomen. Not to mention, it was really a bit conspicuous.

"No matter how busy you work, you can't be lazy."

"I am the normal reaction of middle-aged people. This is a person in his forties or fifties. You are not normal. You have such a good figure. How can you feel upset if you look at it?"

"I exercise almost every day, for at least one and a half hours a day. Who do you want to be lazy and blame?"

"I'm really not lazy!" Zhou Tao retorted, but at this age, the children are all in high school, and they have the same figure. "Are you afraid that Xu Ning is so desperate because you get fat, right?"

Ye Ling reached out to pat Zhou Tao on the back twice, "What are you talking about?"

"It's okay, it's just a joke." Zhou Tao laughed, "Don't be angry, junior sister."

"I just pretend I didn't hear you when you talk to you." Xu Ning and Ye Ling walked together, and then the man got together, and it was not normal to talk and laugh. What's so angry about this?

However, if Brother Zheng really gains weight, the question of what she should do is actually very simple.

If you get fat, just lose weight.

Obesity can cause many diseases, the most common one is the three highs, which are also undesirable for health.

When I arrived at the market, it was only 7:30, but there were already many people. Moreover, the market had more than doubled compared to that year. The former loess roads were replaced with cement roads, and the roadsides were widened. All the houses near the main roads were uniformly painted, the walls were replaced with light blue, and there were also small flower beds. Although most of the flower beds were covered with onions, leeks, spinach, etc., it was also eye-catching.

This is what the new countryside looks like.

Several people watched along the way, especially Zhou Ziheng was the happiest thing, and he was overwhelmed with the sight of it.

It was not the first time he came to the market in his hometown, but it was more than a month since the last time. He came to his grandparents' house for a few days during the summer vacation. At first, he felt it was fresh, but it became boring and boring after a long time of living.

When I was a child, Zhou Tao took his son to the river to fish. If it was a little bigger, the nearby rivers were contracted out to raise fish, and people would not let you catch fish. The same is true on the mountain. People rented them to plant fruit trees, so the children would have less places to play.

The first stop for everyone was to buy fried dough sticks. The fried dough sticks sold by the restaurant were gone, and replaced by a couple in their thirties. Xie Zheng asked for about five kilograms of fried dough sticks and ten noodles.

"Can you finish eating?" Zhou Tao asked.

"I can't finish eating and keep it for the next meal. The fried dough sticks taste very good when they are cold and will not break."

Besides, his wife has room, so she doesn’t have to worry about not having to finish eating.

Then I bought some chicken, duck, fish, crabs, and various meats, and naturally there were a lot of vegetables. In the end, the three men were all full of their hands.

I was going to buy something, but seeing this, I had to give up.

In the village, at this time, seven or eight people gathered at the entrance of the shop.

From Xu Guodong's wife, I learned that Xie Zheng and his wife had returned, the old man in the village suddenly started talking.

"Their family hasn't been back for years, right?"

"It's been seven or eight years, and I don't know what it is now."

"What can I do? Is it so bad? That's really a good life."

"You guys say, how much money do they have to have?"

"Who knows, we can't get a point anyway."

In the Imperial Capital Stadium, the basketball team led by Xie Yang ended at the end of the first half, ending with a seven-point lead over the opponent.

Their team is naturally called Di Yi, and their opponent is from the basketball team of the Imperial Capital Sports School. The name is very funny, it is called Death Primary School. Because it is a competition sponsored by the gymnasium, the rules of the competition are the same except for the time.

This time the game only had the first and second half, twenty minutes in the half, and after one half, everyone was sweating and panting.

Xie Huai and Xiao Ninglean were also sitting in the front row of the audience, and there were many classmates in the class next to them.

"Brother, please wipe your sweat quickly and stop catching a cold!" Little Lemon snuggled at Xie Yang on the guardrail.

Xie Yang waved at her and attracted many girls on the stage to scream in a low voice. It was really good that Xie Yang was so handsome on and off the court.

At this time, a girl in a white dress trotted over, her cheeks flushed, and the ponytail behind her head was shaking left and right, full of youthful atmosphere.
