Things about village flowers

The tricycle whizzed away from the station gate with some difficulty and entered the main road leading to the county party committee. No wonder, the car was carrying three daughters, four large pieces of luggage, and me, a big man, and it was a little overwhelmed. I was really worried that the car wouldn't reach my house and it would have a flat tire.

As soon as the tricycle drove out, Ling Simei and Zhao Qingmei's heads kept swinging like rattles. The world outside was so exciting! Eyes followed the direction of the finger, and surprises continued. There were screams and sighs, which were even rarer than when Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden.

Ling Liping poked me from time to time, pointed at me and laughed at them. Didn't you know that she had only visited the county once when she participated in the county's middle school students' performance, and she had only been here once more than the two of them, but she regarded herself as When someone came over, I laughed at her secretly.

Unconsciously, as I approached the gate of the County Party Committee, the tricycle began to slow down and turn left. Unexpectedly, when passing the gate, I encountered no obstruction. I glanced at the communication room through the small window of the carport. It turned out that there was no one on duty. No wonder. Why did the old janitor Zhang leave his post without permission today? Oh, it’s not like he went to the hut. If he were here, he would definitely stop our car. He has always been very strict and extremely responsible, comparable to a military guard. Outside vehicles are prohibited from entering without permission, not to mention the broken three-wheeler we took. But even if he is there, it doesn't matter. He will delay for a while at most. If he sees me in the car, he will definitely let him go. My face is the pass.

As soon as the tricycle entered the county party committee compound, Ling Liping immediately became excited and kept pointing around and introducing Ling Simei and Zhao Qingmei as if she lived here. When passing by the rockery garden, her eyes suddenly lit up and she said to herself, now she can see clearly, oh, the rockery is so big, and there is a small bamboo forest in front of it, so beautiful! Then she hugged my arm tightly and asked me to take some time to accompany her for a walk. She must climb to the small pavilion on the top of the rockery. I was still thinking about it. In fact, I prefer to come here at night. The darkness of the night can cover my eyes and ears. It’s so cozy in front of the flowers and under the moonlight.

In the blink of an eye, the tricycle drove along the path trimmed into cypress walls on both sides and stopped at the door of my house.

"Haha, we’re at my house! Get off the bus."I laughed and jumped out of the car first. Everyone immediately took the luggage out of the car together. After I paid the tricycle master, the car left with a cry of relief.

"His home is so beautiful! There are so many flowers and plants planted outside the wall, it's like a small garden……"Before the courtyard door could be opened, Ling Simei and Zhao Qingmei stood beside the door and praised it.

"Hee hee, stop standing around, grab your stuff and go in!"Ling Liping smiled and picked up her bag and urged them, like a master. This made me feel a little relieved. It was almost 10 to 12 o'clock, and my parents had not come home from work yet. I came back this time without any prior notice. I told them, thinking of giving them a little surprise, so many flower-like village girls from their hometown suddenly came to the house. Their parents would be so happy to see them.

When they walked into the house, Ling Simei and Zhao Qingmei couldn't see enough, but It opened my eyes. In fact, the yard had more flowers and plants than the farmhouse and was tidied up. The house was a little taller than the farmhouse, with more glass doors and windows, white walls and cement floors, making it appear brighter and cleaner. The furniture in the house was more complete and prettier. , no sense of luxury

"Take a seat! I was very tired after sitting in the car for a long time."Ling Liping pointed to the big sofa in the living room and said to them, it looks more like the owner.

"Ouch!"The two of them stared at the sofa as if they were seeing each other for the first time. Then they sat down, bounced up, and then sank into the sofa. They couldn't help but scream.

"Hahaha……"Ling Liping and I laughed together

"You think your bench is hard, so sit more slowly! Bai Liping said, holding on to the armrest of the sofa and slowly sitting on the single sofa next to her, as if giving a demonstration to them.

"Hey, you guys sit down, I'll turn on the ceiling fan and make you a pot of tea."I said and pulled the switch cord of the fan tied to the wall and turned it to the first wind block. The fan speed has three speeds: slow, medium and fast. Pulling the switch cord will turn it to the first speed, and so on.

"Hey, Sifang, you sit with them and I'll make tea."As soon as I turned on the fan, Ling Liping stood up and said to me. She brought a tray of teapots and cups from under the coffee table to the coffee table. Then she took out the tea tube, opened it, poured the tea leaves into the teapot, and then picked up the red iron hot water bottle next to the coffee table and opened it. I stretched out my hand to test the bottle stopper and felt that the water was not hot enough, so I took the hot water bottle and went to the kitchen. I was very proficient in my business, just like at home. At this time, I sat on a single sofa diagonally opposite them. , watching Ling Simei and Zhao Qingmei quickly lift up the corners of their sweat-soaked coats (luckily they were wearing underwear underneath), looking up at the rotating ceiling fan fanning their sweaty and white faces, squinting their eyes, and Looks like he's enjoying it

"Hey, do you want to turn up the wind?"I stared at their pretty faces, pointed at the ceiling fan and asked

"OK, OK!"They both responded in unison, as if they were asking for it.

I got up and turned on the ceiling fan to the second gear and then sat back down. The wind increased significantly, blowing their little flower gowns fluffy. They quickly let go of the corners of their clothes, Lying on the sofa, looking very relaxed

"Brother Sifang, your family is so awesome!"Ling Simei tilted her head towards me and gave me a thumbs up. Zhao Qingmei just smiled and looked up at the rapidly rotating ceiling fan in trance.

"What's wrong?"I asked

"I have only seen this thing in the commune auditorium. Look, you have it at home! she said, pointing to the ceiling fan.

"Haha," I looked at the ceiling fan and smiled,"What the hell! There are many places in the county with ceiling fans."You are really a girl from the mountains who is short-sighted.

"But there are very few at home, right?!"She continued. She really got it right. I nodded slightly at her in approval.

"Hee hee, let me tell you."She immediately sat up straight, pulled off her gown, raised her chest high enough and smiled at me,"Your family is like a cow!"Thumbs up at me again. This girl is quite serious and will definitely be a powerful master in the future.

"Clang, clang, clang... here comes the boiling water!"At this time, Ling Liping was holding a hot water bottle in one hand and fiddling with it in the other, shouting and walking out of the kitchen as if she were on stage.

"Hee hee hee. Ling Simei and Zhao Qingmei smiled and turned to look at Ling Liping. They stood up and hugged her, bowed to her and shouted in a Beijing accent,"Thank you, madam!" Yes - tired"

"You two little ladies, you're welcome. Please sit down quickly. I'll pour water for you - make tea."Ling Liping responded with the same Beijing accent and waved her hand for them to sit down.

"Hahaha……"I couldn't hold back my laughter. I didn't expect to encounter such a scene. Moreover, they called each other differently. Why did they call Ling Liping a lady instead of a little girl? It would be a good show for the three of them together today.!
