Chapter 440 Yu Xi's Dad

I quickly kept my mouth shut and focused on driving. Everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell. I was just surprised and couldn't help asking. If it was normal, I knew Yu Xi didn't want to talk about it, so I wouldn't have asked her.

Yu Xi's home is at the foot of a big mountain, really very, very remote, they call an area Ridge, for example the area around Yu Xi's house is called Yujialing.

More than a dozen families live in Yujialing, at least ten of them have the surname Yu, and they are more or less related to Yu Xi's family, some of them are very close, for example, Yu Xi's uncle, third uncle, and fourth uncle live here.

The other households have foreign surnames, one is named Tian, ​​one is named Luo, and there are a few others whose surnames are unknown, because the two surnamed Tian and Luo are the closest to Yu Xi’s house, so Yu Xi introduced us in the car.

I parked the car in the yard outside the gate of Yu Xi's house. After a while, a group of children surrounded me. I am a good boy, and twenty or so children rushed over.

People here really don’t know about family planning, they give birth casually, as long as they want to give birth, there is no restraint, there are only a dozen families, and there are dozens of children, this is still only a part of us, my God, it’s enough to live do they.

After we got off the bus, Yu Xi and Lin Manxue distributed candies to the children. These candies were bought on the way. Yu Xi knew about their situation here, and would bring back a lot of food every time she went home.

The children happily dispersed after receiving the candies, and then a group of adults came to watch.

I found that people here like to watch when they have nothing to do. They are very curious about the outside world, especially for those who come back from the outside. pass the day.

I immediately took out a few sticks of cigarettes from the trunk. People in the countryside like to smoke. Besides, there is no smoking ban here. You can smoke as long as you don’t light up other people’s houses. Whoever is full will care whether you smoke or not.

All I bought were Zhonghua cigarettes, more than 800 a pack, two packs for every person, and four packs disappeared in a while.

The middle-aged and elderly people in Yu Xi's hometown who are over forty don't read much, and they speak rudely. They often say all kinds of greetings to other people's family members, which is equivalent to a mantra. There must be a dirty word in every three sentences. Maybe this is them. Local specialties.

I saw that Lin Manxue was frowning all the time. Fortunately, Yu Xi had told us about the customs here on the way. I knew it wasn’t that they were unfriendly to us. On the contrary, they treated people very warmly. They greeted everyone with smiling faces, and there was an uncle A string of firecrackers was also set off.

This uncle is Yu Xi's fourth uncle.

Yu Xi's father was probably still sleeping at that time, he heard the commotion outside, immediately got up from the kang, and ran out without even fully dressed.

Yu Xi's father is a little different from the middle-aged people around me. He doesn't look so rough, and my first impression is a bit like a cultural person.

He is about 1.8 meters tall, thin, with a scruffy beard on his face and looks a bit haggard. He looks like he hasn't woken up, and there is still a strong smell of alcohol on his body. He should have just woke up after being drunk.

He still smelled of alcohol at this time, he must have drunk a lot last night.

When Yu Xi saw her father, her eyes turned red, she called out "Dad" softly, Yu Xi's father saw Yu Xi smiled and said: "Xi'er, you are back."

"Well, Dad, I'm back. By the way, let me introduce you. These two are the leaders of our company, Mr. Lin and Mr. Ye."

When Yu Xi's father heard that we were Yu Xi's leader, he immediately stretched out his callused hands and said, "Hi, you two leaders. Thank you two leaders for always taking care of my daughter. Thank you."

I held Uncle Yu's hand and said, "Uncle, please don't say that. We are colleagues and friends with Yu Xi, and we should take care of each other. She also often helps us. Don't be polite." .”

Uncle Yu didn't shake hands with Lin Manxue. When he saw Lin Manxue's voice and appearance, he was astonished, how could he dare to hold her little hand to make a mistake.

Lin Manxue nodded with a smile as a greeting to Uncle Yu, and Uncle Lin nodded quickly in response.

"Guests, please come inside, please come inside." After the uncle greeted us outside, he immediately led me, Lin Manxue, and Yu Xi home.

The other spectators gradually dispersed. After all, Yu Xi's return home was not an earth-shattering event. Many children who went out to work would go home to celebrate the New Year at the end of the year.

Uncle Yu made a big pot of charcoal fire for me and Lin Manxue to warm up. The winter here is really cold. It’s like two worlds with Shencheng. On a sunny day, there is a feeling of spring and flowers blooming.

Uncle warmed a pot of wine for us. People in Linglu Village like to drink very much, and they can hold a lot of alcohol. Drinking is almost like drinking tea.Yu Xi washed four glasses and each poured a glass of wine.

Yu Xi also drank with us.

I smelled a scent of wine. The wine here is different from the wine we usually drink. The color and turbidity are very different. When poured out, it is milky white, opaque, and smells like goat milk.

Yu Xi introduced that this is goat's milk wine, fresh goat's milk wine, the main ingredient of this kind of wine is goat's milk, and a lot of precious medicinal materials are added in it, so drinking it is very nourishing.

No wonder Yu Xi's skin is so good. She drank goat's milk every day since she was a child.

The fresh goat's milk wine has a smell of goat's milk when it enters the mouth. Lin Manxue is not used to it. She dare not drink it. My uncle persuaded me to drink it. The taste is not bad. After drinking a cup of hot wine, I immediately feel comfortable Tongtai.

I chatted with my uncle for a while, and then Yu Xi told her father the purpose of our coming to Linglu Village to hire a group of craftsmen. There is nothing wrong with talking between father and daughter.

Uncle Yu thought for a while and said, "Xi'er, you should know the situation in our village. Usually, these elders don't like to go out very much, and this season is even more impossible. Besides, you need so many people at once, and the time is so tight. , this is even more difficult. In my opinion, there is only one person in Linglu Village who has the ability to do this, and he is Mr. Pang."

Yu Xi said: "I think so too. Dad, can you take us to ask Mr. Pang to come forward and talk about it."

Uncle Yu said: "It's no problem if I take you to beg him, but I don't know whether he is willing to agree or not. I don't think so."

I said, "Whether it works or not, we want to give it a try."

"Okay. You just have to be prepared. In the past two years, Mr. Pang has devoted himself to the children's education and self-cultivation. He has been ignoring common matters for a long time. Generally, we don't bother him when we don't have important matters. I reckon he won't let go easily, and it's inevitable that we'll have to test it out, if we can't get him to help willingly, we can't force him either."

"It's natural."

Time was running out, and my uncle didn't dare to delay our time any longer. We warmed up for a while before going up the mountain to meet Mr. Pang.
