8 back to the village

The next day, according to the information given by Feng Ling, he transferred a lot of rice, flour and oil at the grain and oil wholesale market, and contacted three trucks of anthracite fuel and a lot of charcoal, and then rushed into the village.

The Northwest is not all ethnic minorities, about 40% are Xia people, and some of them are like Xiushui Village and Xiaobei Village. They are moved from other poor areas in the west to support the Northwest, stabilize the Northwest, and move from other poor areas in the west.

However, although they are not ethnic minorities, the villagers of Xiushui Village and Xiaobei Village who live here have also undergone some changes in their living habits due to the integration of culture and customs, but they are not big, and they are basically dietary.

On the contrary, people from those ethnic groups have been changed a lot by their foreign population, and they are mainly food production.

Feng Yu didn't go to his mother-in-law's house to give gifts, so he naturally didn't do those fancy ones. He bought whatever was missing in the village to be the most affordable one. He didn't like smoking and drinking, and couldn't remember those, so he naturally forgot.

Because of the sparse vegetation here and very little fuel, he remembered that people who grazed had to pick up dry firewood while grazing. Although liquefied gas later appeared in life, it was impossible to use that thing to keep warm.

Moreover, it is really difficult for them to ventilate here. One can of gas is not as expensive as the return fuel.

So while he bought rice, flour, grain and oil, he also bought a lot of anthracite because Xiaoling told him that the stoves in the village were distributed uniformly when the state renovated the house, and they were originally made using coal as fuel.

According to Xiaoling's information, more than 30 families in Xiushui Village moved more than ten households like hers, and there were still more than twenty households left.

However, these twenty families, young and middle-aged, almost all work in Ruowu City and Shi City, while children follow their parents to study in the corresponding city.

Most of the people who stayed in the village were elderly people who were working and no one wanted, and there were less than 30 people in total. They made a living by the state’s subsidies for the elderly and grazing a small amount of cattle and sheep.

Feng Yu drove the car and drove to Xiushui Village with four major carts of things. Although these things are a lot, they are really not worth much. They haven't spent 20,000 yuan yet, but Feng Yu, who was a child, was a little sad.

Fortunately, he won't leave in the future, so he has time to do something for these relatives.

When he was a child, his mother was not in good health and was not suitable for cooking in the stove. His father's cooking skills were hard to describe, so he often had free meals at various stores.

Fortunately, Xiushui Village’s surname is Feng, and it’s up to five generations to make a family, so everyone tried their best to help. Anyway, a child can’t eat much.

...

After driving out of the city and leaving the traffic, the new young driver Feng Yu began to let go a little and rush up the speed. The sunlight shone into the car through the sunroof, filtering very softly. He turned on the music and fully enjoyed the fun of driving.

Until…the phone rang.

While connecting to the phone through the on-board system, Feng Yu also "skilledly" glanced back through the rearview mirror. The hired fleet was following behind, but what did the transport car owner call him?

"Has there any car fallen behind?" Feng Yu asked.

"Uh...Boss, can you hurry up? We can keep up."

“…The navigation said that this national highway is 80 times limited to the speed limit…”

After a moment of silence, a helpless sentence came from the phone: "That's near the city, we're all entering the desert area now..."

"Ah, that's it, okay." Feng Yu could only follow the rules and was despised by the small box truck. He couldn't hold on, so he could only 'cautiously' to increase the accelerator.

Then he saw the rami noodles box behind him getting closer and closer to his car....

"Damn, I'm driving to ninety, why are you making a fuss?"

Feng Yu had always heard of fatigue driving, drivers were asleep while driving, but he actually couldn't understand it at all, because with his feeling, once the speed came up, he would be extremely nervous and sweaty, so how could he sleep?

He didn't know at all, that was the tension that was exclusive to him for novices.

He was thinking about it when he found that the box had caught up and was walking with him. The driver held the steering wheel with one hand and a cigarette in his other hand, and looked down with a condescending look.

Feng Yu felt that the driver was despising him for being timid, but he didn't care, because safety was the most important thing, but in fact, the driver knew that he had seen through all this, and his eyes were "I'm useless to blind these 2.0t."

In this way, Feng Yu "sprinted" all the way and finally arrived at the intersection leading to Xiushuijiao. When he was running on the national highway, he was also busy "communicating" with the box truck driver. When the car turned off the cement road, Feng Yu was a little nervous and had a little sore nose.

Not far from the national highway, sparse trees appeared in front of them, growing along the north-south river channel.

The homes of the villagers in Xiushui Village are not far from the river, and are distributed along the river like trees, sparse and not very close.

Because the main livelihood here is grazing, each family needs a large yard to place a cattle shed and space for livestock activities, so although every family’s house is not big, the yard is not smaller than that of a basketball court.

This also leads to a certain distance between every household. Although there are not many households, the distribution is not as dense as those in other areas.

After walking for a while, large yards appeared on the side of the road, and some things and things like sheep and poop were also seen on the cement road.

However, unlike Feng Yu's hometown where he remembers his memory, the original small earthen house and the wooden pillars and thatch-topped cattle shed in the large yard are gone, and instead they are houses with red brick walls, blue colored steel roofs, and sliding windows.

Even the cattle shed was replaced with color steel ceilings and stainless steel pillars, but these houses were all in front and the cattle shed was moved to the backyard.

He thought it was a new one, and was thinking about who the village head was. The design layout was much more reasonable, but he didn't expect that every household would be basically the same as the next one. Although the orientation was slightly different, the house and the cattle shed were almost the same color steel roof.

Feng Yu's home is at the southernmost end of the village. When he was about to reach the end of the color steel house, he saw an old man holding his arms and curled up in the sun under the wooden fence, he stopped the car and opened the door and walked down.

"Grandpa Third!" Feng Yu called out to the old man who looked up at him.

"Dehai, she is back from herding sheep." The old man said in a hoarse voice.

Feng Yu's eyes suddenly turned red. Grandpa third had a bad memory when he was leaving college and always recognized the wrong person.

Dehai is his father's name, and Feng Yu looks like his father, so the old man admits his mistake.
