The sunshine of the seventh day of the Chinese New Year shone on her head, but the little fellow's heart was cold …
Was this the countryside?
Why was it different from what she had imagined?
National Highway 108 went straight through the village, and all kinds of old buildings were not arranged neatly on both sides of the street.
The arrival of Chen Xi's family caused a lot of noise here, so that many villagers leaned out to observe them silently.
The village was not big, and one could see the end of it at a glance.
On the left side of the road was a mountain, and a muddy road went straight up the mountain.
On the right side was the valley and large fields.
The wheat fields in winter were not as beautiful as in autumn. The withered yellow straw was scattered on the field in a disorderly manner, and it was a scene of withering.
The car had been booked by Chen Xi, but there were no hotels nearby, so the driver could only drive back to the county to stay.
Of course, his expenses for these few days were naturally all on Chen Xi's head.
The little fellow wanted to leave with the driver, but was stopped by Qin Ruoying.
When she saw the GL8 turn around and drive away, the little fellow suddenly curled her lips.
Looking at that pitiful little appearance, it seemed that she was about to cry.
Qin Ruoying quickly hugged her in her arms and comforted her, "Niannian, be good. This is grandma's home, don't be afraid. We'll stay here with grandma for a few days and then go back. Don't you want to accompany grandma?"
Hearing this, the little fellow said with grievance, "I want to be with grandma, but I don't like it here! I don't like it here! Mama, I want to go home … "
Children were always a little afraid of strangers.
And this was a new environment that the little fellow had never been to, so even if Chen Xi, Qin Ruoying, and grandma were all by her side, the little fellow still felt very uncomfortable and depressed.
The little fellow was upset.
Her reaction also attracted Chen Xi's attention.
When Chen Xi saw her pitiful appearance, he immediately came to Qin Ruoying's side.
After taking the little fellow from Qin Ruoying's arms, Chen Xi said to her with a smile, "Niannian, are you scared?"
However, when the little girl heard Chen Xi's question, she immediately turned her little head and muttered unhappily, "Papa, I want to go home … I don't want to be here … It's not fun here …"
Seeing this, Chen Xi immediately smiled and asked, "Why isn't it fun here?"
"It's just not fun! I don't like it here! "
"Niannian, you're wrong. This place is actually very fun …"
"Not fun at all!"
Before Chen Xi could finish his words, the little fellow had already interrupted him.
From the looks of it, she seemed to be angry.
Chen Xi reached out to pinch her little face, but she swatted his hand away.
This little thing was still at odds with her father.
When it came to coaxing his daughter, Chen Xi was now very handy and had many tricks up his sleeve.
Therefore, when he saw that the little fellow seemed to be conflicted, he decisively stopped the topic and asked in a negotiating tone, "Niannian, how about this? Let's stay here for one night. If you really don't like it here, Papa will take you home tomorrow, okay?"
After hearing Chen Xi's words, the little fellow rested her head on his shoulder and thought for a moment. Then, she reluctantly hummed and reluctantly agreed, "Then we'll stay for one night! Just one night! Pinky promise! "
After that, the little fellow stretched out her little finger and motioned for Chen Xi to pinky promise with her.
"Okay, Papa will pinky promise with you. I promise I'll keep my word."
The father and daughter reached an agreement, and the little fellow finally stopped throwing a tantrum.
Then, under the guidance of Aunt Zhang's family, they walked down the path to the valley.
After walking for about two hundred meters, Chen Xi's family finally saw Aunt Zhang's old house.
Aunt Zhang's old house …
It was indeed very old.
The living environment in the Kang Ju District was already very poor, but compared to Aunt Zhang's old house, it was really the difference between a villa hotel and a small train station hotel.
This house was built by Aunt Zhang's father's generation. The main materials were wood and yellow mud. Because it was exposed to wind and rain all year round, it caused the wood to mold and turn black. Therefore, when looking from the outside, the whole house was somewhat dark.
The house was surrounded by fields, and a few hundred meters down was the river.
Not far away, there was a bamboo forest with luxuriant foliage, so much so that it looked quite gloomy in broad daylight.
In the morning, Chengdu was still bustling, but after three hours, they came to such a quiet and backward little village. Not to mention the little fellow, even Qin Ruoying was somewhat not used to it.
Although the little fellow had already agreed to stay here for one night, when they were close to the house, she was still somewhat unwilling. She kept twisting her body and shouting for Chen Xi to put her down.
Chen Xi did not say much to her. He carried her directly into the house.
At this time, it was right to cut the Gordian knot. After letting her get used to it, naturally, she would not be as resistant as she was now.
In reality, Chen Xi really thought that this place was not bad.
The mountains were clear and the water was clear, and the land was full of outstanding people.
Although the house was a little simple, it was good in terms of peace and comfort.
Moreover, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here was very rich. After staying in this place for a long time, even breathing could make one feel refreshed and very comfortable.
A few days ago, Aunt Zhang suddenly fell ill, so Xie Pinglin hurriedly brought the old lady back to Chengdu.
They had only been away for a few days, so there was obviously the smell of smoke in this house.
This house was actually very big. Looking at it now, it was four bedrooms, one living room, and one kitchen.
Overall, it was very good. The only bad thing was that there was no bathroom, so it was very inconvenient to take a bath.
Moreover, the bathroom was a latrine, the kind that was extremely smelly …
Aunt Zhang was already prepared for this.
The bungalow by the street used to be a hotel. There were toilets and bathrooms on the first floor. Aunt Zhang had already informed the owner of the house, so Chen Xi's family could go there if they wanted to wash up.
After Chen Xi carried the little girl around the house, the little girl gradually relaxed, so she turned her little head and began to look around.
There was a TV in the living room at home, but it was a small color TV from the 80s and 90s.
There was no wall paint in the old house. After a layer of lime was casually applied, newspapers were pasted on the wall as wallpaper.
Most of these newspapers were from 30 to 40 years ago, so many of them were already yellowed and rolled up.
There was also a portrait of Grandpa Mao on the wall. It was a common poster of that era, so it looked quite old.
Although the house was old, it was very clean.
Although furniture like the wardrobe and table were old, because of its age, it had a different kind of charm.
Perhaps it was because the house and furniture were made of wood that there was always an indescribable wood fragrance in the house. It was very comfortable to smell.
Overall, this house was a little too simple on the outside, but the other places were really not as bad as the little girl had imagined.
After roughly understanding the internal structure of the house, the little girl could finally accept the fact that she would be staying here for a night.
Therefore, she came to the living room under Aunt Zhang's call, then sat on a small stool and ate oranges.
