Cheng Guozhong is in the center of Jiujia Village, not far from the educated youth site, and it only takes a short walk to get there.
"This is my home!" Cheng Guozhong said as he went forward to knock on his own door. "I'm back! Open the door quickly..."
Xu Zhixin looked at the house in front of her. It was also a small farmyard, but it looked much bigger than the educated youth site.
The door opened quickly and a pretty young woman with an apple-like face walked out.
"Dad, you're finally back. Everyone is waiting for you to eat. Come in quickly... Oh, there are guests!" The young woman was halfway through her words when she noticed Xu Zhixin and Lu Pinjie following behind Cheng Guozhong.
"They are new educated youth. The living quarters for female educated youth in the educated youth center are too crowded. There is really no room for them. The old educated youth are unwilling to let them live there either. So I let them live in our house as a way to repay them for their kindness in helping to find Xiao Shitou when he was missing. Xiao Xu also saved Xiao Shitou from a wolf's mouth in time." Cheng Guozhong introduced.
"She is my eldest daughter-in-law Liang Jinxiu!" Cheng Guozhong immediately introduced the girl's identity to Xu Zhixin and Lu Pinjie.
"Thank you, thank you!" Liang Jinxiu thanked Xu Zhixin and Lu Pinjie outside the door with gratitude on her face.
"Who is Xu Zhiqing? Mother has already told me that it was thanks to Xu Zhiqing that Xiao Shitou was saved. Mother also said that if Xu Zhiqing had not moved a stone in time to kill the wolf, Xiao Shitou would have been unable to escape the wolf's mouth and would have died." Liang Jinxiu asked.
She wanted to look at the two girls outside the door, but the light in the house only illuminated the yard and not the outside of the door, so it was dark outside the door and she could only vaguely see the figures of the two girls.
"I am." Xu Zhixin stepped forward and said, "Sister Jinxiu, hello!" She greeted politely.
"Hello, thank you so much for saving Xiao Shitou. Xiao Shitou is the treasure of our family!" Liang Jinxiu thanked him again while looking at Xu Zhixin who came into the yard and could be seen clearly under the light. She thought to herself, what a beauty she is. She had never seen such a beautiful girl before.
These city girls are just different, maybe because they are not like the country girls who have to do rough and heavy work in the fields every day. Look at their skin, so white and tender, so tender that it seems like water can drip out of it, making people want to touch it and pinch it.
So lovely!
Cheng Guozhong quickly brought Lu Pinjie into the house. Lu Pinjie politely greeted Liang Jinxiu and called her "Sister Jinxiu".
Cheng Guozhong led Xu Zhixin and Lu Pinjie towards the main hall. As Xu Zhixin walked, she glanced around inconspicuously.
It was very big! The yard was more than twice the size of the educated youth site. There was a well in the middle of the yard, and a tree was planted in the southeast and northwest corners. The southeast corner had a plum tree, and the northwest corner had a peach tree. Because it was still early, the plum and peach trees had not yet bloomed, let alone borne fruit.
The yard looked like a youth cadre residence, with firewood piled up there, a stone table and several stone benches. It looked pretty nice.
The house has two main rooms, two on the left side, two on the right side, and two on the side, which are quite large.
"That's the main room. The room next to it is where I, my children's mothers and my youngest child sleep." Cheng Guozhong's voice suddenly rang out, and he raised his hand, pointed to the main room in front and began to introduce it.
"Look, the first room on the left is the room of my eldest son and his wife, and the second room on the left is where my second son lives. He is currently attending high school in the county.
The first room on the right was originally occupied by my daughter, but she got married last year, so the room is now empty. You can live in her room. She has everything in her room, and it's convenient...
The second room on the right is the granary, the one on the east happens to be the kitchen, and the one on the west happens to be the toilet."
"Dad, you're back!"
Just as Xu Zhixin was about to speak, she saw Xiao Shitou running out of the main room. The fear and shock he had shown when he saw the wolf on his face was gone, replaced by joy at seeing Cheng Guozhong.
A smile flashed in Xu Zhixin's eyes. He was indeed a child with a bad memory. He forgot about the wolf so quickly. But it was good this way. If he could not forget how scary the wolf was, he would be in fear and terror all the time, and it would be terrible if he became scared silly.
