The place where Fu Yu's home is located is the largest county under Bei'an. Because it has the largest green mountain forest in the province, the surrounding environment is very beautiful.

However, because it has not been planned as a tourist attraction, most young people have gone to make a living outside, resulting in a sharp decline in the county's population and a serious aging population.

This has also caused the development of the entire county to lag behind.

The bus drove into the county town, drove for a distance, and entered a mountain road with dense vegetation.

The road is very long, with green trees on both sides. Only after driving a long way can you see the building area in front.

Liu Yuqing has grown up in the city since she was a child. Her hometown is also a provincial city, so she is very familiar with the scenery of the county town.

Especially this section of the mountain road is winding and winding. Even if spring has not yet begun, you can still see a lot of green vegetation along the way, all of which are cold-resistant plants.

It is very shocking and beautiful to see a patch of green in such weather.

Fu Yu returned to his hometown after the New Year and was very excited. He turned to look at the familiar scenery outside the window. Seeing that he was about to enter the residential area, he quickly turned to remind Liu Yuqing to get off at the station.

Finally, when I turned around, I saw Liu Yuqing looking at the scenery outside the window with a fresh look on her face. The original nervousness was swept away, replaced by eyes full of appreciation.

Fu Yu couldn't help but said, "How about it? It's beautiful here, isn't it?"

Liu Yuqing nodded excitedly: "Well, it's very beautiful. The environment here at your home is also great! This doesn't look like a county town. It's basically a large green forest park!"

Fu Yu smiled: "The scenery is indeed good, but it is not easy to develop here, and there are mostly elderly people in the county, and the young people have gone to study and work outside. If they want to transform, there is no one to support it."

Liu Yuqing nodded: "It is true that big cities are definitely more developed than small counties, but the environment here is good and the air is good, so it is very suitable for the elderly to live."

Fu Yu nodded. Although people in the county are generally not very wealthy, every household has a house and a yard. As long as they work hard in life, they can be completely self-sufficient. And like their family, they always eat the food they grow themselves.

Gardening fruits and vegetables is green and healthy, and you can also have some fun for yourself.

"When I just graduated from school, I once thought that if I couldn't survive in Bei'an, I would come back here and open a small restaurant, which would be enough for food and drink. When I get old, I can grow my own vegetables and raise them.

Flowers, living a pastoral life."

Liu Yuqing heard this and said with great interest: "This is a good idea! In addition to growing vegetables, you can also raise some small animals, such as chickens, ducks, and geese. It will definitely be interesting."

Liu Yuqing felt it was novel, so she didn't lose her mind when she said this.

What Fu Yu was talking about was the life he had always longed for before.

The people in their county may be somewhat conservative at heart and like to return to their roots after fallen leaves.

The bus stopped on a road in the center of the county, and Fu Yu and Liu Yuqing got out of the bus carrying large and small bags.

As soon as I got off the bus, I saw Fu Yu's uncle who had been waiting for a long time and was staring eagerly at the bus.

The county is actually quite big, so to travel back and forth, you usually take a bus or take a taxi.

Fu Yu's aunt's family has a car. When he comes home, his aunt will drive over to pick him up.

Originally, Fu's father and Fu's mother wanted to come with them so that they could see their son and future daughter-in-law for the first time, but they had to give up the idea because there were too many people and the car couldn't fit in them.

Fu Yu's uncle is an honest man with a somewhat impatient personality, but he is very enthusiastic towards others.

After receiving Fu Yu and Liu Yuqing, my uncle greeted them warmly and drove them home.

When the car entered the county, the roads were very wide, with tall buildings on both sides and all kinds of shops.

However, as you drive further in, the number of high-rise buildings gradually decreases. First there are multi-story buildings, and then as you get closer to the mountains and forests, the nearby buildings turn into numerous self-built two-story buildings. Almost every family has a courtyard and a household.

Households grow vegetable gardens and fruit orchards.

The uncle looked at the fresh-faced Liu Yuqing and said with a smile: "Xiaoqing, what do you think? Our county is quite beautiful, isn't it?"

Liu Yuqing nodded excitedly: "Well, it's very beautiful, and the environment here is also great!"

My uncle smiled and said, "I think so too. What's the difference between a house like this and those extremely expensive villas in big cities? Dig a hole in the yard for a swimming pool and front and rear gardens.

It all depends on how you decorate your home.”

Liu Yuqing nodded. The two-story self-built buildings outside the car window are just like the villas in the suburbs of the city!

The uncle continued: "When it comes to planting flowers and vegetables, it has to be Fu Yu's house. You can see it when we get there soon. The weather is still cold now, but they have a flower shed. In more than two months, they will be able to plant flowers and vegetables.

These flowers will start to bloom one after another. When they are moved to the yard, their house will have the best view on the whole street."

Liu Yuqing felt yearning after hearing this, and secretly thought to herself that Fu's parents must be people who love life very much, otherwise they would not take care of their own courtyard so well.

And he should be very diligent and have a good personality.

After all, growing flowers and vegetables requires a little patience.

This made Liu Yuqing's anxious mood relax a little.

The car drove to the door of Fu Yu's house. My uncle honked the horn twice, and Fu's father and mother immediately heard the sound and came out.

Fu Yu led Liu Yuqing forward and introduced: "Xiaoqing, these are my parents."

Liu Yuqing hurriedly called out: "Uncle, hello! Auntie, hello!"

Father Fu and Mother Fu immediately laughed from ear to ear and said in unison: "Okay, okay!"

Fu Yu left Liu Yuqing to his mother to entertain him, while he went to the trunk to carry the luggage.

Dad Fu and his uncle stepped forward to help.

Seeing the trunk full of gifts, Dad Fu hurriedly said: "Oh, why did I buy a bunch of things again? I have everything at home!"

Fu Yu smiled and said, "Xiao Qing bought them all. I want to honor you and my mother."

When Fu Ma heard this, she couldn't help but hold Liu Yuqing's hand warmly, and said happily: "You kid, don't spend money randomly next time you come over. We are already very happy when you come."

With that said, Fu Ma led Liu Yuqing to her small courtyard.

Although the economy of the small county is somewhat backward, it is not particularly closed. There are many elderly people left behind, but the children who study and work abroad will come back during the holidays.

Those who earn money will also help their families repair and expand their houses and improve their living environment.

Over the years, the county has been changing every year.

Every time I come back, I can find a lot of differences.

The path in front of Fu Yu's house was re-paved last fall. The house has internet and natural gas, and there are stations for various takeaways and express delivery, making life very convenient.

However, the elderly should still be more conservative after all.

Every day I am obsessed with planting and managing the small garden, and I eat home-grown green fruits and vegetables. Everything is purely natural.

When Dad Fu was helping us move things together, he would say hello to nearby neighbors from time to time who heard the news and came out to watch the fun.

The small county town is not big, and the neighbors are all acquaintances who have lived here for decades. They often visit each other, and there are no secrets at all.

Fu Yu is the only high school student in the neighborhood who dropped out of school in the middle of his studies, and he is different from those children who do not work hard and refuse to study well.

He was admitted to high school, but he asked not to go there, but there was not much fuss at home, so he went to the city to study at a chef school instead.

I obviously had the opportunity to take the college entrance examination and go to university, but I ended up becoming a cook.

Almost all relatives and friends who knew their family had heard about this incident, and at that time they felt that the parents were a little too spoiled to their children.

I also think that Fu Yu has been obedient, sensible and handsome since he was a child, so why is he so good that he refuses to study!

For a long time, close relatives and friends always used Fu Yu as a negative example when educating their children.

However, at the beginning of winter last year, Fu's father and Fu's mother's family went to Bei'an. When they came back, news came out that Fu Yu had worked as a chef in a very famous hotel in the city and earned a lot of money.

It is said that they also bought a big house in the city. Fu's father and Fu's mother wanted to publicize it. In addition, they had Aunt Fu Yu's rebellious son as a comparison. The news spread quickly.

There is an old man I know who loves to gossip when meeting people, saying that it is thirty years to the east of the river and thirty years to the west of the river.

In the past, Fu Ma and her sister lived in poverty, and their son did not have a good education. He dropped out of high school and became a poor chef.

My younger sister’s family is financially well-off, so she supported her son in various cram schools, picking him up and dropping him off every day, and finally he was admitted to university.

As a result, in less than three years, my sister's son became a chef and settled in the city.

My sister's son dropped out of college midway, and now he's doing some kind of online live broadcast, which is making a lot of noise.

Especially the fact that my sister's son was able to settle down in Bei'an. The news spread among the neighbors almost instantly.

That’s Bei’an!

Buying a second-hand house casually costs hundreds of thousands, but this commercial house can easily cost one or two million?

When everyone heard the news, they were naturally impressed by the Fu family. Many people who had watched the Fu family lively in the past had always found it difficult to accept this reality.

The boy who was not as good as his own children is now suddenly successful. This is too unbelievable!

And now, not only is he doing well, he also has a girlfriend!

Many nosy neighbors popped their heads out to watch the fun.

Seeing Fu Yu standing at the door of Fu's house with a very beautiful and elegant young girl, he suddenly became more and more curious.

"Fu Yu is back!"

"Are you coming back with your girlfriend?"

"Didn't you just come back during the Chinese New Year? Are you on vacation again?"

Taking advantage of the opportunity to chat, everyone came closer and watched Fu's father and Fu Yu's uncle unload various large and small packages of gifts from the car.
