84. Chapter 84 Luohu


Chapter 84 Luohu

Luohu Township is a place surrounded by mountains and green water. The name Luohu was also used when the commune was renamed.

Because of the Luohu Reservoir, which is hidden in the mountains and is formed by the collection of mountain spring water, underground water, rain and snow, and was later built by several generations of villagers.

It is precisely because of the reservoir that although people were short of food during the three years of the natural disaster, it was much easier to live with the big fish in the entire reservoir than in the disaster-stricken areas outside.

……

July is the hottest month in summer.

But at ninety o'clock, the sun above my head hit my body, and I felt a burning pain.

Suning and Luo Shuangshuang, walking on the mountain trail, tried their best to choose shady places with plenty of shade.

The clothes on my body were dry and wet, and when they were wet they were immediately dried by the heat. Even the braids around my ears were so wet that they looked like water could be squeezed out.

“Ning Baogai, how about we take a rest at the reservoir?”

"Is it still far away?"

"After the reservoir, we have to walk for about twenty minutes to get there."

The two of them stopped at the same time and glanced at each other in confusion. They couldn't help but look at each other and laugh.

With their poor physical condition, they would have to lie down completely if they were to keep walking for twenty minutes without being overheated.

“Let’s go, choose a place under a big tree to have a good rest before we talk.”

Luo Shuangshuang said as he used his hand as a fan to fan in front of his face. In the past, his brother had arranged for his return, but this time The next time it was her turn, she didn't think through many things.

Ning Baogai, on the other hand, suffered along with him, and muttered in annoyance that he was a fool.

When I get excited, I forget everything!

Obviously her father had reminded her to call her uncle’s team leader when he came.

“Ning Baogai…”

"Okay, just think of it as exercise. There's nothing wrong with walking more."

It was this hot-tempered girl who pulled her out of the house in a hurry before dawn. The kettle she prepared was all I forgot it on the living room table.

Licking his lips, Suning looked at the military green canvas bag hanging on his body: It's not even big enough to be transformed directly.

Seeing her movements, Luo Shuangshuang touched her mouth which was also thirsty and turned to look at the ditch not far away, "Ning Baogai, just sit here and wait for me! "

"Grapefruit, what are you doing?"

"Find you a good thing~"

The ravines are entangled with thorns and there are low bushes everywhere. , this season the green leaves are mixed with many red or orange dots.

Using large leaves, rolled into a triangular-bottomed cup shape, Luo Shuangshuang squatted down and carefully picked the bright red thorn fruits and put them into the cup.

After a while, I picked a small handful.

"Ning Baogai, try it quickly. This fruit is sour and sweet. It will replenish your moisture a little!"

I picked up one and put it in my mouth. It burst into my mouth with just a sip. It tasted good with a moderate sweetness and sourness.

It wasn’t until the two of them had finished eating a handful of thorn berries and their legs and feet had regained their strength that they continued to move towards the path next to the reservoir.

......

More than half an hour later, when I climbed over the last hillside and looked at the hanging towers made of wood sitting halfway up the mountain, I was exhausted. The two of them almost cried out in excitement.

The villagers who have finished work at noon in the terraced fields are handing over their farm tools and preparing to go home to eat and rest.

Following the young men who had been working all morning, they were not tired, and they went straight to the small river in the mountains in small groups.

When passing by two people, one of them was a lean boy with a tanned body and only the whites of his eyes and teeth. He happily ran out of the group of friends and asked, "Sister Matou, why are you back?"

"Little lantern? Why are you so dark again? It's almost as good as black charcoal?"

"Hey hey hey, the sun is burning at noon. Isn't it like going to the river to bathe, catch crabs and fish every day and get sunburned? Well!"

Yan Wen rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment, and when he found his friends waiting for him not far away, he shouted, "You guys go ahead, my sister will be back today. I’m not going!”

"Okay!"

"Come on, sister, I will take you home. If I know you are coming back today, I will be so happy that my front teeth will burst out of joy!"

At this time, Yan Wen discovered Behind his sister was a lesbian who he had never seen before, who was prettier than his sister, and he was immediately taken aback.

Raising her hand and flicking his head, Luo Shuangshuang smiled and introduced, "This is your sister and my best friend Suning, you have to call me sister too!"

" Ning Baogai, this is my uncle’s eldest cousin, Yan Wen.”

“Hello, Sister Ning!” “Hello to you too”



Taking out a handful of toffee from her bag, Suning raised the corner of her mouth and handed it to him, "Here, sister, treat you to some candies."

Seeing his cousin nod, Yan Wencai grinned sheepishly He took it with both hands, "Thank you, Sister Ning!"

These are White Rabbit toffees, not one or two, but a large handful.

There are only good things that Auntie and the others can eat every time they come back!

Sniffing the saliva from his mouth, Yan Wen had a great impression of this sister whom he met for the first time.

After all, it is not common for city girls to be so generous and gentle to others.

Just like the group of educated youths in the team, although they didn’t say anything unpleasant, they always felt a sense of disgust when they saw them, as if their bodies were covered with fleas.

Oh tui~

They bathe in the river eight hundred times every day, are they no cleaner than anyone else? !

The hanging building where the Yan family lives is near the foot of the back hill, not far from the river where Yan Wen and the others often go, and in the same direction.

A few minutes later, after walking around a vegetable field, Yan Wen walked into the yard with ease and shouted in a loud voice, "Mom, daddy, I'm back again!"
< br>"Come back again? Where is it!"

"Why didn't this kid hang up the phone in advance when he came back? How did he come back?"

Yan Xi, who was resting in the room and drinking a gulp of cold water, listened to his son's words and almost spit out a mouthful of water. He wiped his mouth randomly and walked into the courtyard at the same time as his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were busy having lunch in the kitchen.

Qian Hongmei, who was sweating profusely from the burning heat, rubbed the black ash on her hands on her trouser legs.

The son lifted up the obstruction that was blocking his sight and stood on tiptoe to look out of the courtyard. When he saw the familiar figure in the distance, he immediately burst out overjoyed, "What a surprise!"

People After hearing her daughter-in-law's words, Mrs. Yan, who had lost her eyesight as she aged, was as happy as Yan Wen said, so much so that she showed her two shaky front teeth.

Anxiously, she took a few steps outside. Where was her only granddaughter? She hadn’t seen her for more than half a year. How could the old man not miss her.

"Is it just Youyou? Xinmeier and the others didn't come back?"

"His sister-in-law didn't see her, but there was a strange girl following behind us."

“That’s Sister Youyou’s good friend, Sister Suning! She’s such a nice person!”

Yan Wen popped up from behind his mother and interjected, subconsciously pinching the bag in his trouser pocket. toffee.

Hearing that there were still guests coming to the door, Qian Hongmei turned around and quickly went to the kitchen to prepare brown sugar water without her mother-in-law's instructions.

"Grandma, uncle!"

"Hey, grandma is here again!"

Three steps became one big step, and Luo Shuangshuang was waiting in front of the courtyard gate, looking at her eagerly. Her old man, unable to hide the joy in his eyes, jumped up to her and hugged her.

Mr. Yan's eyes were red, she wanted to hug her but didn't dare, "Hey, my mother-in-law is so dirty, don't make your new clothes dirty!"

"I don't care, I just want to hug you. It’s dirty, I’m sweating all over and I still stink. Grandma still dislikes me.”

“You can’t stand up to me with this loud mouth!”

The corner of your mouth is raised high. Mrs. Yan took it out and patted her on the back gently, because she was thinking about what she said.

Why do they say that girls are inferior to children? Such a warm and caring little cotton-padded jacket is a thousand times better than a brat?

Unfortunately, the eldest and his wife were unable to give birth to a granddaughter.

Fortunately, my daughter lived up to her expectations, and she was satisfied with having such a lovely grandson.

"Grandma, uncle, this is my good friend and my savior Suning."

"My savior? What's going on?"

"Grandma Yan, uncle Yan, hello!"

"Okay, Xiao Ning, come in quickly!"

Disapproving of her saying this to the family she just met, Suning interrupted Uncle Yan's questioning without leaving any trace.

I know that Xiyou’s intention is to make them pay more attention to him, but after not seeing each other for a long time, the old man is getting older, so this is completely unnecessary.

Facing her slightly reproachful eyes, Luo Shuangshuang quietly stuck out his tongue: What he said is true~

Watching the two girls' eyebrows and lawsuits, Yan Xi had no choice but to temporarily Suppress the doubts in your mind.

"Xiao Ning doesn't have anything good to entertain at home. You drink some brown sugar water first, and the food will be ready later. You must be tired and hungry after walking for so long!"
