The village where Tang Weiwei lives is too poor.
Xu Xiuwen even saw quite a few earthen houses.
People in rural areas may go to bed early.
Many families closed their doors, turned off their lights and went to sleep.
The village was too quiet.
Only when passing by the door of someone who has a dog.
The local dog in the yard heard the noise and started barking.
After entering the village.
Xu Xiuwen didn't know the way, so he followed Tang Weiwei.
Under the leadership of Tang Weiwei.
Soon we arrived in front of two earthen houses.
The door of the earthen house is more like a few pieces of wood spliced together than a door.
There was an old man standing at the door.
Xu Xiuwen looked in the moonlight.
A short, hunchbacked old lady was standing at the gate.
The old lady was wearing a brightly colored floral T-shirt, which didn't look like women's clothes but more like men's clothes.
At this moment, the old lady also saw Tang Weiwei.
A happy smile suddenly broke out on the wrinkled face.
Tang Weiwei also saw the old lady.
She shouted excitedly, "Mother-in-law!"
At the same time, he walked quickly to the old lady and held her hand.
Tang Weiwei's voice was a little choked.
It seemed that she was very excited because she hadn't seen her grandma for so long away from home.
Tang Weiwei's grandmother held her hand tightly, looked her up and down, and said in a heavy Yu accent, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
Xu Xiuwen also followed Tang Weiwei to the door.
It was only then that the old lady discovered that Tang Weiwei had brought someone back with her.
She was visibly stunned.
The old lady was stunned for a moment.
Xu Xiuwen immediately guessed that Tang Weiwei must not have told her grandmother that she would bring her boyfriend home.
Xu Xiuwen didn't want to give the old man such a big stimulus right from the start.
He stepped forward and said, "Hello, grandma. I'm Xu Xiuwen, Tang Weiwei's classmate."
After hearing this, the old lady looked at her granddaughter again.
Tang Weiwei felt her grandmother's gaze and her emotions jumped out of excitement.
She was a little nervous and stammered, "Mother-in-law, he... he is... my classmate."
After hearing this, the old lady looked at Xu Xiuwen carefully again, then nodded and said in a hoarse voice: "Come in."
After saying this, the old lady turned and went into the house.
Tang Weiwei immediately turned to look at Xu Xiuwen and gave him an apologetic look.
Xu Xiuwen shook his head at her and smiled.
Tang Weiwei finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then the two of them went into the house.
Tang Weiwei's house is very simple, just two mud houses.
In the room at the entrance there was a small, old square table and two long-legged benches.
You can tell at a glance that this is an old item that has been used for many years.
Maybe it was given by someone else.
After the old lady entered the house, she asked Xu Xiuwen and Tang Weiwei if they had eaten.
Tang Weiwei said no.
The old lady walked towards the back door without saying a word.
Tang Weiwei said to Xu Xiuwen, "I'll go help."
Then he left Xu Xiuwen in the front room.
Both the grandfather and grandson went to the backyard.
Xu Xiuwen just looked around.
Tang Weiwei's house has two mud houses, but outside the back door is a yard surrounded by a fence.
There are two small houses in the yard.
There is another very small earthen house in the corner next to the earthen house.
This is the kitchen of Tang Weiwei's house, with a stove inside.
At this time, the old lady was lighting a fire in the stove.
And at the far end of the yard there is also a small thatched house.
Xu Xiuwen guessed it should be the toilet.
After looking around.
Xu Xiuwen only thought of one word.
The family is penniless.
Before Xu Xiuwen came, he thought that Tang Weiwei's family was very poor, but he was still shocked.
It's really too poor.
Growing up in such an environment.
No wonder Tang Weiwei is so frugal.
Xu Xiuwen took a walk and returned to the main house, where he sat down on a long-legged bench and waited.
Not long after.
Tang Weiwei came back with two bowls of noodles.
The noodles are freshly cooked, steaming hot and exuding a strong aroma.
Xu Xiuwen took a look and saw an egg on top of the noodles.
But only one bowl had it, the other bowl didn't.
Tang Weiwei placed the bowl with eggs in front of Xu Xiuwen.
She herself held the bowl without the egg.
The old lady did not come with Tang Weiwei. She was still in the hut in the backyard, busy with something.
Tang Weiwei handed over a pair of chopsticks and whispered, "Xu Xiuwen, these are all we have at home. I'm sorry."
She didn't even dare to look into Xu Xiuwen's eyes.
Xu Xiuwen did not say any hypocritical polite words.
This egg may be one of the few good things in Tang Weiwei's home.
He knew that only after eating the eggs would Tang Weiwei feel at ease.
So Xu Xiuwen started eating, praising it as he ate, "It tastes really good."
Watching Xu Xiuwen eating happily.
Tang Weiwei was also relieved.
She sat down and concentrated on eating the noodles in her bowl.
After dinner.
Tang Weiwei carried the dishes and chopsticks back to the small room at the back.
Then she came back and led Xu Xiuwen to the mud house next door.
This room is Tang Weiwei's "bedroom".
Xu Xiuwen is a guest after all.
Just now, no one had the courage to go in and take a look.
Now following Tang Weiwei in, he quickly took a look.
