Chapter 1011 Chapter 1015 A Happy Family

Although their village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, because the altitude is not so high, it is still hot when it should be hot, especially in summer, it is really like a big furnace.

However, in order to keep his house from being so hot, Xiao San also thought of several ways.

The first one is to plant evergreen trees outside the walls of the house, which is the kind of tree with green leaves all year round, which will make the house more beautiful. At first he wanted to plant banyan trees, but later he chose Osmanthus tree, not for anything else, just because his little girl likes it. I still remember that in the season of sweet-scented osmanthus, the girl would sit under the osmanthus tree at the entrance of the village and play for a long time after school. When she asked her why, she said that the sweet-scented osmanthus was too fragrant. It will be as fragrant as an osmanthus fairy.

Where there are trees and flowers, there are small bridges and flowing water.

When the house was first built, the village was full of adobe houses. Xiao San's inspiration for building this kind of ancient style came from the side of the West City. He thought this kind of courtyard with three entrances and four entrances was really beautiful. However, the number of people in his family was limited, so he still didn't make the house so big, so he built two. The front of the entrance is the courtyard, the middle is the house, and the back is the study and tea room. The front yard is planted with flowers and plants, and it is used as an amusement park for children.

Between the house and the tea room, there is a small bridge with flowing water, and there is a well beside it, and the kitchen is next to the well. There is also a small door leading to the outside, and a hollow window. In summer, there is a flow of wind, so it will not be very hot when cooking like this. Outside the window, there is a pond. One side, the other side is full of bamboo, open the door and go out, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery. This pond was originally the Xiao family, and through Xiao San's hands, it was enlarged by half. There are lotus roots planted in the pond, and you can always smell the refreshing fragrance in this season.

The design of the house, Xiao San has planned many times before it has the current effect.

If it wasn't for the convenience of the houses in the city, Luo Xiaohua still wanted to live here.

"It's really beautiful here!"

It was winter when I got married. At that time, the backyard was a desolate scene, and I was too busy with the wedding, so I didn’t have time to come and enjoy it. Later, I went back because of something in the city. Every time I come back, I am in a hurry, and I don’t even bother to appreciate it.

Now the family sits on a small table by the pond, admiring the beautiful scenery, not to mention feeling isolated from the world.

This pond was dug by Xiao San, in order to prevent others from damaging the water quality in the pond, so he planted bamboo on the side. However, there are some nasty ones who will make a way and wash clothes on the side. Then, he planted lotus roots under the bamboo forest, so that he didn't have to worry about the water quality being damaged.

Every autumn, he will release water once, dig out the lotus root, and then clean up the silt, so that the pond will not become smaller because of this, and the silt will become a very effective fertilizer because it stays in the water for a long time. Use it to fertilize, and the effect is even better than that of the septic tank.

Although the water is released in autumn, the excess fish will be sold, and there will be no fish to eat during the Chinese New Year. However, in summer, because the pond is clean, one fish can be caught every day for the tooth festival.

This is also prepared by Xiao San for his grandparents. Although they are too old to eat fish, it is just right to drink some fish soup. Besides, grandma likes fishing, so there is one at home, so there is no need to run outside.

This old lady is really different, maybe because she is used to being alone all year round. When I was young, I accompanied my husband to the west city, and I went fishing with a fishing rod when I had nothing to do. Now that I am old, as long as I have time, the only thing I do is fishing.

This seemed particularly abrupt in an era when many men were fishing, but this was one of her special hobbies.

Maybe it's also a way for her to pass the time!

When the old man was still in good health, he did all the work in the house, and the old lady was fishing and changing directions. This was the opposite of the general family.

Therefore, when the old man fell ill, Xiao San asked several uncles and aunts to take care of him, because grandma hadn't cooked or washed clothes for many years. It seems that her joints hurt when she touched cold water, so grandpa didn't let her do these tasks.

Of course, those who are future generations will not have any opinions.

"There is a stream of groundwater coming out of this location. Even if the sky is dry, this pond doesn't have to worry about water shortage. I don't know how many people have been saved in the year of sky dryness. Therefore, when I was building this bamboo forest, I was just scolded. I said a few words, but no one dared to say anything."

"When our children are older, we can swim directly on this side."

When building the pool, Xiao San purposely built a small pond on the side near the house and laid tiles, one is to worry about the children falling down, and the other is that it can be used as a swimming pool, which is safe and convenient to use.

However, usually without his consent, the children are not allowed to swim casually.

The main reason is that if something happens, he can't bear the responsibility.

"Then the water will be warm in winter and cool in summer!"

"Do you think it is convenient to take a bath in winter? When I was a child, this was not a pond. My dad built a pond here, and then erected a shed around it. It is tightly surrounded, and I don't feel cold at all."

Seeing his wife's undisguised smile, Xiao San also laughed.

"I'm so envious!"

Luo Xiaohua unabashedly showed an envious expression.

Living in the south, the temperature throughout the year is really very obvious.

Especially in winter, there is really a rhythm of freezing to death.

For her who is afraid of the cold, every winter, she can't wait to sit around the stove to warm up. Not to mention taking a bath, which would make her cold if she took it off, she was extremely reluctant.

When I was a child, taking a bath in winter was like killing her. It was really her mother chasing her around the village.

If she had known that his house had such a good place, she might have come to his house to take a bath.

Looking at the harmonious picture of his grandson and grandson-in-law, the old man also smiled from ear to ear.

After making gestures with his wife, he pushed the wheelchair back to the house.

Although he can still sit in the wheelchair for a while now, it is hot and he will not be able to bear it after sitting for a long time.

The three little guys were also attracted by the sight in front of them, staring at the butterfly for a while, and then at the dragonfly flying in the pond. Immediately afterwards, I was attracted by the sound of frogs, and looked everywhere for the little thing that made the sound.
