After dinner, the two elderly people used to take a nap, and Lin Haoxi followed Song Yuhui to watch TV in the main room.

The TV in this village relies on aluminum pots to receive signals, and it receives many channels, but because of the TV itself, there are some small snowflakes on the screen.

On the TV, "Mischievous Kiss", which is popular all over the country, is being staged. The clumsy heroine is favored by the arrogant and indifferent male protagonist, envious of countless young girls.

Lin Haoxi didn't like this kind of TV series, after watching it for a while, he looked at Song Yuhui a little funny, "Do you like watching youth idol dramas?"

Song Yuhui shook his head, "No."

"Then are you still watching?"

Song Yuhui looked at Lin Haoxi who had good skin and good looks.He always thought that Lin Haoxi would like this kind of TV series.Because Lin Haoxi is like the hero in a youth idol drama.

"Why don't you read it and go out with me for a walk."

"Yes, yes."

After turning off the TV, Song Yuhui closed the door of the main room and went out with Lin Haoxi, taking him for a stroll in the village.

There are nearly a hundred households in this village surrounded by mountains, which are scattered on several nearby mountains. The total number of people is less than 1000. Those who stay in the village are old people, women and children, and most of the young people are out. I go to work and come back several times a year.

Most of the houses in the village are built on the hills. From a distance, the white walls and black tiles have a sense of hierarchy.There are also some one-story houses that have only been built in recent years. The one-story houses with tiles are out of tune with the surrounding tile houses.

Every household likes to plant a few trees in front of the door, or build a bamboo frame, and plant some loofah and cucumbers. The green vines cover the bamboo frame, which can not only enjoy the shade, but also harvest fruits.

Lin Haoxi's cell phone in his trouser pocket rang, and the ringtone was a song by Jay Chou.

The voice on the phone was a young male voice, "Where are you?"

Lin Haoxi held the phone and looked at the opposite mountain, "I don't know, probably still on the earth."

"Don't be kidding, I'm asking you seriously."

Lin Haoxi looked at Song Yuhui next to him and asked, "What's your name?"

Song Yuhui replied, "It's called Shanglin Village."

Lin Haoxi said to the person on the phone: "Did you hear that just now?"

The person on the phone was very helpless, "Did you really go to the countryside?"

"otherwise."

"Then when are you coming back?"

"A month later."

"So long?" The person on the phone said, "I said, why are you looking for trouble if you're fine?"

"The environment here is good, just treat it as a farmhouse vacation." Lin Haoxi added, "By the way, if you can't get through to my phone, just charge me a few hundred dollars and you should be able to get through."

"You didn't notify me when you went to other places. It's no wonder I charged you the phone bill."

"If you don't recharge, don't recharge. It's good to be isolated from the world."

"you……"

"The phone is dead, hang up."

The person on the other end of the phone wanted to say something, but Lin Haoxi had already closed the slider phone and put it in his pocket.

The person on the phone just now was Li Yi, Lin Haoxi's playmate and classmate from childhood to adulthood. They have been in the same school since they met in junior high school. The two feel like brothers.

After wandering around the village and returning home, Song Yuhui started to work.Lin Haoxi stood by and watched Song Yuhui squatting on the ground, chopped up some unknown green plants and put them into bamboo baskets. After the fire was raised, all the things were put into the pot to cook.

Lin Haoxi watched him put the lid on the pot, a little curious, "Don't you need to wash this dish?"

Song Yuhui smiled and said, "This is for pigs."

Lin Haoxi: "..."

Song Yuhui stooped to stir the firewood in the stove, turned his head and looked at Lin Haoxi who was behind him with his arms folded, "Do you want sweet potatoes, I'll simmer them for you."

"casual."

Song Yuhui entered the main room from the kitchen, and then entered another room. When he came out, he had a few sweet potatoes in his hand.

Lin Haoxi watched him use iron clamps to push away the dust in the stove and bury the sweet potatoes in it. This is the so-called stewed sweet potatoes.

"Brother Haoxi, it's a little hot, you go to the main room to watch TV, and I'll call you when you're done."

Lin Haoxi burst out laughing, Song Yuhui looked at him and laughed suddenly, a little at a loss.

"Hey, don't call me brother Haoxi from now on, it makes me uncomfortable."

Song Yuhui also felt that this title was a bit awkward, but besides this, he really couldn't think of any other title, "Then what's the name?"

Lin Haoxi thought for a while, "Save the trouble, just call my brother."

"Yes."

"Call to hear."

Song Yuhui paused, "Brother."

"That's right." Lin Haoxi nodded with satisfaction. He is the only son in his family and has no brothers or sisters. Suddenly someone calls him brother, which feels good.

Song Yuhui has to do a lot of farm work every day. After cooking the pig food, pour it into a bucket. When it is almost cold, Grandma Song is responsible for feeding it.

Song Yuhui carried two wooden barrels to fetch water.Lin Haoxi was free, so Song Yuhui went to fetch water and he followed.

The place where the water is carried is a ravine, and there is a clear spring in the ravine overgrown with plants, which is pure natural groundwater.Many nearby farmers who have not dug wells come here to carry water for food.Even if a well is dug in front of the house, I still like to use the water here to make tea.

Song Yuhui squatted beside the spring water, scooped up a ladle of water with a gourd ladle, and handed it to Lin Haoxi, "Brother, do you want to drink it? This water is a bit sweet."

Lin Haoxi took it and took a sip. The temperature of the underground water is lower than that of the surface water, and the entrance is cool, which can just relieve the heat.After drinking, there is still a hint of sweetness in the mouth.

Song Yuhui also said that if you usually want to drink spring water, if you don't have a cup with you, you can pick a leaf near the spring water, roll it into a cone, and drink water.

Lin Haoxi experimented, picked a leaf nearby, and rolled it into a cone shape.Song Yuhui quickly stopped him, saying that the leaves are poisonous and cannot be used for drinking.Turning around, he picked a reed leaf from the bushes and handed it to Lin Haoxi, "Use this."

Lin Haoxi squatted next to the spring water and scooped up a little water with a leaf rolled into a cone, just like a cup, but he had to drink it up quickly, otherwise the water would leak out bit by bit.

Lin Haoxi squatted next to the spring water, looking at the spring, he couldn't see the bottom at a glance. When it reached a certain depth, it became pitch black, and it was impossible to see where the water came from.

The most common wild fruit in the bushes in the mountains is raspberries, which look like strawberries but are much smaller than strawberries.Song Yuhui picked some from a nearby bush, wrapped them in clean leaves, and handed them to Lin Haoxi, "Do you want to eat this?"

Lin Haoxi looked at the red fruit on the leaves, twisted one and put it in his mouth, it was a bit sour and sweet, "Not bad."

"If you like to eat, I'll pick some for you."

Lin Haoxi threw two pills into his mouth, "No, that's enough."

Song Yuhui filled the two wooden barrels he brought with water with a ladle, put a pole on his shoulder, and picked it up at once.Lin Haoxi followed behind him, watching the wooden pole bent and deformed on his immature shoulders.

"Would you like me to help you?"

Song Yuhui looked back at him, "No, I can do it myself."

Lin Haoxi insisted, "I'll just try to play for a while." Holding the pole on his shoulders with both hands, he took it and carried it on his shoulders.

The wooden barrel is already a bit heavy, and when it is filled with water, it will add up to at least a hundred catties.After the smooth pole was pressed on the shoulder, the two buckets of water hanging on the pole lost their balance, wobbled, and a little water dripped out.

Song Yuhui taught him to hold the hemp rope with both hands to keep the balance between the front and rear buckets of water, so as to stop more water from being spilled.

The Song family's house is halfway up the mountain, so you have to climb a slope to get there.The road uphill is not smooth, and the simple steps made of stones and bricks look a little rough.

Lin Haoxi's shoulders were so painful that he put down the water and took a breath, "Take a break first."

"Let me do it." As he said, Song Yuhui picked up two buckets of water and went uphill, as if he was used to it.

Life in the countryside is very simple, without the busyness of city people, but it is not idle, there is endless farm work every day.

Lin Haoxi's parents are pure urbanites. He was born with rich clothes and fine clothes, lived in a villa, and hired two full-time nannies at home.His mother used to be a well-known model. After giving birth to him, she resigned from the position of a model. She took care of her husband and raised her children at home. His father was a rich second generation, but he did run the business on his own.

When participating in the 'Country Life*Experiment', Lin Haoxi didn't tell his parents, but just told them that he was going on a trip. The 8000 yuan was his own money. He started contributing articles to magazines at the age of 13, and published his first book at the age of 15, which was widely loved by young people, so he received a generous remuneration.

In the next few years, he published several books one after another, and there were reprints of best-selling books, and the remuneration he got was enough for him to do what he wanted to do.

The night in the countryside is silent. Standing at the door and looking at the houses on the opposite hillside, there are only a few scattered lights.People in rural areas go to bed early, have a meal, sit at the door of their house or chat under a tree, and go to bed at [-]:[-] am.

Lin Haoxi is used to going to bed late, writing manuscripts or playing games, and won't go to bed until twelve o'clock.

In the simple room, there is a desk and a bench placed against the wall, and the yellow light bulb in the room hangs above the desk, which is just for lighting.He took out his laptop from his backpack and opened it, sat on the bench, opened a word document, and prepared to write something.

What he saw and heard today was enough to shock his heart. The 15-year-old boy always had a shallow smile that was not easy to detect, and seemed to tell everyone that he was satisfied with his current life.He was busy with this and that without complaint, no matter how hard or tiring the work, he did it without frowning.

Fingers tapped on the keyboard, and unconsciously typed three pages of word documents.He took out his phone and checked the time, it was only eleven o'clock.
