It was already ten o'clock when Ye Jinxi got up the next day. Zhang Cheng left him a meal and a note, telling him that he went to school to draw the key points.

Ye Jinxi didn't get up and lay on the bed. He cried a lot last night, which made him vent some of his emotions these days, and he finally felt a little more relaxed, but the dreams these days made him unable to relax.Perhaps the dreams were too real for him to ignore, and he had a faint feeling that those dreams might happen.

When Zhang Cheng came back at noon, he didn't ask about what happened last night. Ye Jinxi felt that the biggest reward for her going to college was meeting Zhang Cheng, a friend.This is his luck.

Zhang Cheng reheated the leftover dishes from yesterday, and had a meal with Ye Jinxi. Seeing that he had eaten a lot, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.Little did he know that Ye Jinxi never wasted food because of his dreams, and kept eating until he couldn't eat anymore.Even if you can't taste anything.Perhaps only by experiencing the despair brought about by hunger will you know how happy it is to be full.

From then until the end of the exam, Ye Jinxi didn't have any nightmares, and the fact that everything returned to normal made him think that the dreams he had had were just dreams.

He booked the bus tickets at the school before New Year's Day, and on the night after the exam, he and Zhang Cheng took the road back to their hometown. Coincidentally, the two of them were in the same city, but one was in the city and the other was in the countryside.

Ye Jinxi's hometown is in the countryside of Kyrgyzstan Province, Xiayejiatun, Yangshu County, J City.After getting off the bus in the city, it takes more than three hours to get to the village where Yejiatun is located, and it takes more than an hour to walk from the village to get home.belonging to remote places.Further north is the forest, and the distance between villages and villages is not close.

I got off the bus in the morning and waited for the bus for two hours. It was already past three in the afternoon when I got home.

It's cold here, and there are always a few snowfalls here in winter, and the feet creak on the ground. I'm used to it since I was a child, but now it feels like a world away.Before entering the village, I heard dogs barking, and Gao Lao piled up tall firewood outside the courtyard wall of every house.

Their home is on the west side of the village, next to the old production team headquarters, which is basically empty now, with only a row of tile-roofed houses, which are only used for important events in the village, or for movie gatherings.

Their house is in the southeast of the production team. Because the surrounding ground is low-lying, when it rains, water will accumulate and form a crescent-shaped water bubble, which almost surrounds their house.So it looks like a peninsula.The courtyard wall is close to the East Avenue, and next to the courtyard wall is the tree planted by my grandfather.The gate opens to the east.

"Grandma, Xiaobao is back, hehe, Xiaobao is back." Hearing the barking of the family dog, a big one over 1.8 meters ran out of the house.Seeing a cheerful and innocent smile on his face, he ran forward clapping his hands.Although he already looks like an adult, but looking at Nai Zhen's wink, it can be seen that there may be some problems with his IQ.

Ye Jinxi greeted him with a smile, reaching out to touch the big man's face. "Is Dabao okay at home, is he thin?"

"Hehe, Dabao is not thin. Grandma made chicken legs for me. I want to eat one. The other is for Xiaobao." Dabao gestured with his hands, and couldn't help showing a greedy expression on his mouth.

Ye Jinxi smiled, "It's a big treasure to eat chicken legs. Grandma, I'm back." Seeing the old lady walking out of the door, Ye Jinxi greeted with a smile.

"Hey, good to be back. Come into the house to warm up on the kang, it's strangely cold outside." Mrs. Ye said to take the bag from Ye Jinxi's hand.

"No milk, I'll take it."

"Whether it's cold in the car or not. Are your feet cold?" Mrs. Ye touched Ye Jinxi's face with concern. "It's cold. Come in."

When the three of them entered the room, they saw a skinny old man in his 60s coming out of the kitchen, looking at Ye Jinxi with smile lines all over his face, "Jinxi, is it cold? Get on the kang, I'm burning hot." This is Ye Jinxi's Grandpa Ye Deming.

"Master." Ye Jinxi called out with a smile, the old man stretched out his hand to take the luggage, and hugged Ye Jinxi all the way, "You're thin, you're tired from studying." He said with a bit of pain on his face.

"I'm not strong enough."

After entering the room, Ye Jinxi took off his clothes and looked at the few people closest to him, as if he couldn't get enough of his eyes.

This side just took off his clothes, and Dabao held a hot water basin in his hand, "Xiaobao washes his face." Dabao's face was full of joy.

"It's easy to wash your face, and I will get a gift for Dabao later."

"Oh, there's a gift." Dabao jumped up happily.

Jinxi washed her face, then took out the things she bought for grandma and Dabao from her bag.

"Why do you buy this?" Grandpa Jinxi held a pair of thick gloves in his hand, with a look of joy and distress for money on his face.On the other side, grandma is touching the down jacket and vest happily.

"I found a few tutors this semester, and the parents of the high school seniors I tutored last year gave me bonuses as they said at the beginning, and the tuition fees for next year will be covered." Jin Xi took out a Transformer from his bag and handed it to him. Dabao.Dabao doesn't let go of his hug. It's been a long time since his parents passed away, and no one has bought toys for Dabao.

"You don't need to worry about the tuition fee, and you don't need to save too much. It looks like you have lost a lot of pounds. Da Jiang mailed another 2000 yuan home, and called to say that he has saved enough for your next year's tuition fee, so he won't let you go out to work. The price of corn has increased by more than 5000 a ton this year, and our family has more than [-] catties. I want to sell it after the New Year. With ten acres of soybeans, I can earn tens of thousands of yuan." Grandpa Ye said and squeezed Squeezing Jinxi's arm, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Haven't you bought soybeans at home?" Ye Jinxi asked a little strangely.

"No, many houses in our village didn't sell them. The price of soybeans changed again and again when they first came out. Seeing that they have risen, this year we have done a good job of soybeans in our area. Everyone is waiting for the price to increase. It's okay, there is no rush recently. The oil mill is in contact with the village. If it is completed, the price will be a few cents." The grandfather grinned as he spoke, as if there were too many people in their village, it would be more if they were distributed to each individual. The eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law did not Well, the contract period is still 20 years away. They increase the land without increasing the number of people or decrease the land. Such a family of seven has about 68 acres of land. Although it is a bit tired, the annual income is quite a lot.Even though he is [-], he can still do it.

"The kang is warming up. I'll go and see the chicken stewed in the pot. It's almost rotten." Grandma Ye walked out with small steps as she said.

Ye Jinxi put the bag back and asked, "Brother Chen, why did you post so much money back? They don't have so much allowance in the army, do they?"

"I'm not too sure what kind of task bonus it seems to be. I don't know. Maybe it's their treatment." Grandpa Ye shook his head as he said.When talking on the phone, I always can’t understand, “He won’t come back this year. You can ask him when you call during the Chinese New Year.

Ye Jinxi nodded and put his slippers on the kang, and the warm kang warmed his frozen and stiff legs, "You have to ask carefully, we don't know where he is, I always feel that he has been posting money home for a few years." Uneasy." Grandpa pulled a small quilt to cover his lap, "Don't worry, he has rules. It's okay, you rest." Turning around, he went out to help the old woman light the fire.

Dabao was lying on the edge of the Kang, fiddling with Transformers in his hands.

At this moment Ye Jinxi felt very happy.

In the evening, I ate the chicken stewed by grandma. The taste of the farm chicken made Ye Jinxi almost bite off his tongue.Dabao happily ate two chicken legs.

It was getting dark here early, and there was no light when walking on the road after six o'clock. Ye Jinxi almost fell asleep when he heard the big yellow dog barking outside.

After a while, the door of the outside room opened, and I heard the second uncle's loud voice, "Jinxi is back?" Then a very burly Northeast man entered the room from outside, bringing a chill.

"Second Uncle." Jin Xi quickly sat up.

"Oh, why are you so thin?"

"Brother Jinyang, second aunt, sister-in-law." Following the second uncle of the Ye family, three people followed in order: Ye Jinxi's cousin Ye Jinyang, second aunt, brother Jinyang's sister-in-law, and Ye Jinyang's son.Two-year-old tiger.

"Why did you bring the child here? You shouldn't have brought it out when it was dark." Grandma Ye gave Second Uncle Ye a complaining look.Even if Grandma Ye had a problem with her daughter-in-law, she would not directly confront her. She would definitely find trouble with her son, who told him not to lock up her daughter-in-law.Although Second Uncle Ye was a bit wronged like this, it also reduced many conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

"Isn't this just a coincidence? Yesterday Jinyang and his wife went back to her natal home, and they just happened to meet and came here together." Ye Laoer explained.

"I just came back. Is it cold all the way? Feng, take your daughter-in-law to sit on the kang."

"Mom, you go to the kang too." The second aunt also hurriedly asked the old lady.

After a while, all the mothers were on the kang.

Ye Jinxi had already hugged the tiger into his arms, the child might have fallen asleep on the road just now, maybe he was wearing a padded jacket for fear of freezing and was holding a quilt and blanket, covering the child's face warmly.I fell asleep just now, now I will open my eyes and see a stranger, my eyes are wide open, as if I am about to cry or not.

"Hehe, I don't know you anymore." The second aunt sat on the side, and when Huzi saw the familiar grandma, he squeezed his mouth and was about to cry, so his second aunt hurriedly hugged her.

Ye Jinxi's cousin is a very simple and honest person, usually he doesn't like to talk, but now he comes over to say hello to Ye Jinxi and then whispers to Dabao, Dabao introduces him how to play Transformers, Ye Jingyang is very patient and not at all impatient.

Second uncle Ye asked about Ye Jinxi's life in the past six months, and the second uncle's family sat for an hour before leaving.Grandpa locked the door, and the family went to bed early.

That night Jinxi slept well, and when he got up in the morning, his grandfather had already got up and lit the kang, Jinxi ran out to the toilet shivering, feeling as if his butt was going to freeze.

"Cold." Grandpa came in holding a bundle of corn stalks.

"It's okay. I'll get it, sir." Every time I come back from school, there will always be a day or two when I don't get used to it, but it will be fine in the past.He grew up here since he was a child, and no matter how much he changed the water and the soil, he couldn't change it.

"No, you are not as energetic as I am. There is hot water in the pot to wash your face."

"Don't worry, when Dabao gets up, let's wash together. I'll light the fire."

"Okay." Grandpa Ye didn't stop him either.Looking at the sparkling eyes of the grandson with a smile, it seems that he can't get enough of it.

Ye Jinxi's father is Ye Deming's eldest son. Dabao is the first child in their family. He was originally a normal child. When he was five years old, he had a high fever. He was seen in the village, but his illness was delayed and he was sent to the hospital too late. Burned out the brain.Although I went to a large hospital in the city to see it for more than half a year, the final result was not ideal, and my intelligence was about the same as that of a five-year-old child.

Ye's father and Ye's mother were very sad about this, but every time they thought that the elder son's intelligence was still at the age of five, and he might not be able to live a normal life in the future, the couple discussed and wanted a second child, Ye Jinxi.Ye Jinxi is more than six years younger than Ye Jinfu, almost seven years old.

Father Ye and mother Ye owed a lot of money to treat Dabao in order to raise two children. The family has a lot of land, and their annual income has been repaid, and they have to pay back for several years. They simply went out to work. Take care, Ye Jinxi's grandparents are in good health, Ye Jinxi is still clever and smart, no one has to worry about her since she was a child, Dabao is well-behaved even though his intelligence is only five years old.

It’s just that some children in the village were ignorant at that time, and sometimes they would yell after Dabao. At that time, Ye Jinxi was too young to help his brother. The house was sold, and a new house was built in the current place. It is surrounded by water bubbles. Although it is not deep, there is water all year round. In the past, this side was biased and there was water. No one chose this as a homestead. The land above is big enough, the area around the water bubble is not small, and there is also a lot of room for children to move around.

The old man was afraid that the two children would go out and play in the bubble, so he planted trees on the bank, and planted some thorn roses in the middle, and gradually surrounded the outside, so he was not afraid of the children running out. Shaguo hairy hawthorn pears were transplanted in the open space, and the fruiting time is the happiest day for children every year.

This home surrounded by water on three sides is the best memory of Ye Jinxi's childhood.

Ye's father and Ye's mother are working outside, and the land at home is planted by Mr. Ye, because Mr. Ye told his second son about this at the beginning, so he and the eldest son will separate into a family.He wanted to help while he could still move.

Uncle Ye is straightforward and honest. He knows the difficulties of his eldest brother’s family, and he has no money to help, let alone care about these things. Even Second Aunt Ye didn’t say anything. A year pulled down.Usually no matter what, he always walks ahead.

Ye's father and Ye's mother can get back some living money every year when they work outside, and within a few years, they can pay off the debt they owed for treating Dabao's illness.Life is getting easier, and Jinxi's family built a new house when he was in junior high school.After a long time, no one in the village talked about Dabao. Although Dabao's intelligence was only at the age of five, other aspects were normal, and five-year-old children could understand things, so the elders taught him a lot. I can understand that Dabao has a carefree personality like a child, and Dabao is also physically strong, obedient and sensible.Everyone in the family likes him and treats him like a treasure.

Ye's father and Ye's mother passed away in Ye Jinxi's first year of high school. The couple had a car accident on the way back. Seven people died at that time. Ye's mother died on the spot. Ye's father still breathed a sigh of relief. He lost his savings and borrowed a lot from Uncle Ye.It's a pity that the money spent didn't save Father Ye's life in the end.

Later, the driver who caused the accident gave some compensation. Unfortunately, the family was too poor. He himself got involved in the car accident, and there was not much in the hands of the victims. The foreign debt has been paid off.The grandparents and grandchildren of the Ye family lost all their money. The second uncle Ye’s house was half built that year, and the second uncle Ye took out the money for building the house and the money for Jin Yang’s marriage, although the money was returned later. Partly, the house was built, but Jinyang's marriage almost fell through. Fortunately, Jinyang's daughter-in-law got along well with him, so she finally married her. After that, Jinyang's father-in-law didn't give him a good face for more than two years.

At that time, Jinxi felt sad and guilty, and almost dropped out of school.
