The village in the distance was an ordinary village deep in a mountain col, with low tiled houses surrounded by weeds, barking dogs, cooking smoke and dim lights.
The village must have been some years old, the tiled houses are dilapidated and low, and there are only two or three houses over two floors, with cobwebs hanging on the eaves and bird's nests, which look very poor.
In this village, the total annual GDP of the whole village may not be as much as that of a family in the city.
The three of them walked into the village by stepping on branches and rotten leaves, and basically every household was cooking on a fire, and most of the farmers were cooking smoke from their roofs.
"Wangwang, Wangwang" seems to be hearing that someone is coming, and the earth dogs of two families began to bark wildly, barking heartbreakingly.
The courtyard door of one of the farmhouses was pushed open, and an old man in his seventies and eighties bent down and walked out slowly with a hookah, his cloudy eyes glancing at the three of them, and his face was expressionless.
"Hey, I regret it, I really shouldn't get off the highway to deal with a night in the service area, why the hell do you live in this place" The old man who came out was wearing a black undershirt, with a black undershirt and wide-legged coarse cloth pants underneath, barefoot and no shoes, and his feet were all covered with pitch-black mud, The old man showed a mouthful of big yellow teeth when he grunted his hookah.
It's not that I look down on the farmers here, just this spiritual outlook is a little disgusting at a glance, and the senses are really not good.
"Is it too late to go back now" Yang Fei'er took Wang Xuanzhen's hand and asked pleadingly.
Xiang Que and Wang Fatzi are okay, they can deal with them anywhere they want, but Sister Fei'er, a charming girl, is a little difficult.
Xiang Que scratched his nose, walked up to the old man with a dry smile and asked with a smile: "Uncle, can you find a place to spend the night from the mountains?"
It's okay to give money."
Wang Xuanzhen muttered in Xiang Que's ear: "Brother, live here?"
If I really live in that house, I don't dare to move my mother's breath, I'm really afraid that my house will be blown down, so let's change places, okay?
” "Deal with it, deal with it, why are you still picky when you are not familiar with life, it's good to have a place to sleep" The old man wrapped his hookah in a hookah and said nothing, stretched out a shriveled finger and gestured to the east, then turned around and closed the courtyard door again with a "squeak".
"The people in this place don't seem to be very hospitable, a little less welcoming" Wang Xuanzhen turned his head and glanced to the east, there was a house not far in front of him that looked good, one of the few two-story buildings in the village.
"The old man means to let us go to that house if we spend the night?"
As for this old man's house, it is also a problem for the three of them to live there, and the best thing in this house may be that the two pieces of wood on the courtyard door look relatively regular, and the earthen houses in the courtyard are a little crumbling.
Xiang Que said: "That treatment should be considered relatively good in the whole village, let's go, let's go, let's go to that house" "You two didn't notice the old man who smoked just now, are the two eyes dark" Yang Fei'er shrunk her head and muttered quietly behind Wang Xuanzhen.
"I'm not in good health when I'm old, I'm empty," Wang Fatzi said casually.
Xiang Que paused, frowned and recalled slightly, the old man's eyes seemed to be darker, but he didn't stare at his face at all when he talked to the other party, and now he likes to think about it, the old man's eyes are not only slightly dark, but his eye sockets are also deep.
Xiang Que looked back at the old man's home, which was very usual.
A few minutes later, the three of them walked to the front of the two-story building at the front of the path, "Bang, bang, bang" and knocked on the door, and a moment later, someone in the courtyard answered.
"Who?"
Someone in the courtyard walked out in three or two steps and opened the courtyard door, and what came out was a middle-aged man in his forties, with short hair and wearing an old Mao suit.
"You are ······" The middle-aged man looked at the three of them a little dumbfounded.
Xiang Que and Wang Fatzi squeezed out a smile at the same time, and said: "Uncle, we just got off the highway and drove over, we didn't find a place to sleep, we just walked to the village, can we spend the night?"
” The middle-aged man frowned and looked a little unhappy, Wang Xuanzhen took out his wallet and said, "Uncle, just sleep, let's leave early tomorrow morning, if it's convenient, you can get us something to eat, huh······ This money should be regarded as the cost of accommodation, you take care of it" Wang Xuanzhen took out five or six hundred yuan, and stuffed it into the other party's hand without looking at it, but he didn't expect the other party to push it back directly, and said in a very embarrassed tone: "It's okay to live, but it's not very peaceful for livestock to run around after dark at night in our village, and it will be fatal if you meet someone."
Yes, if you live, you can do it, but after turning off the lights, you can't go out again, and stay in the house honestly."
Xiang Que hummed, nodded and said, "It's been a tiring day, we also want to rest early, go to bed immediately after eating, and leave at five or six o'clock tomorrow."
"Hey, alright, alright, come in," the middle-aged man opened the courtyard door and let the three of them in.
"Uncle's surname," Xiang Que asked after him.
"The surname Wang is called Wang Jinbo, I am the village party secretary here, this village is called Ma Luo Village, it is a centuries-old village" Wang branch secretary led them through the courtyard and into the building, a middle-aged father and daughter who were about the same age as him greeted him from the house, and they were obviously stunned after seeing the three of them.
"This is my wife, the country woman has never seen much of the world, I will ask her to prepare something for you later" Xiang Que, Wang Xuanzhen and Yang Fei'er sat in the living room, and Wang Jinbo was pulled out by his wife.
"Did you two see it again," Yang Fei'er asked with her head lowered and pressed her throat.
"Eye sockets" glanced at Xiang Que and Wang Xuanzhen, and said at the same time: "The eye sockets of these two people are also a little dark."
"This village ······" Yang Fei'er bit her lip and looked a little nervous.
Xiang Que took out a cigarette, lit a stick and said nonchalantly: "Sisters, if this village is not clean, I can find it when I come in, don't think about it too much, maybe the people here are more industrious, and the eyes of those who are tired of getting up early in the morning are black, which is normal" Wang Xuanzhen squinted his eyes and asked: "Hardworking, can you still be poor?"
Look at the cabinet in the house of the village party secretary, it is older than the three of us combined, how poor is this, let me tell you that the village party secretary in Guangzhou is worth eight figures, and no matter how poor he is, he can't be a village cadre Right?
Look at this house, it's too cold."
"That's the problem of water and soil, the black eye sockets may be the characteristic of people here, you just like the people in Africa, there is no white place on the whole body except for the teeth" Wang Xuanzhen said quite confusedly: "If you explain it like this, then I will accept it"
