Chapter 173: Island in the middle of the lake

"How's it going, Brother Tian, the scenery here is very good, right?"

Jona swaggered a little smugly to Cheng Tianxian.

"It's very good, and it has a lot of potential for development, if it weren't for the lack of time, I would like to visit that island." ”

Cheng Tian smiled and nodded.

"Now we can go over too. ”

Jona said with a smile.

"Now, how?"

Cheng Tian asked suspiciously, there were only one or two fishing boats on the surface of the reservoir now, and they were far away from the two of them.

"You come with me. ”

Jona took Chengtian's hand and walked towards the dam of the reservoir, and through the dam, he could see a small and inconspicuous house not far from the dam, and the door of the small house was open.

When Jona and Cheng Tian walked into the small house, they saw an old man sitting there smoking a dry cigarette and watching TV.

"Two little dolls, what is the matter with you coming to me?"

When the old man saw Cheng Tian and Qiao Na entering the house, he turned his head and asked softly.

"Grandpa, my brother and I want to go to the island in the middle of the lake, can you help us?"

Jona asked with a smile.

"You two want to go to the island?"

The old man raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.

"Yes, grandpa. ”

Jona smiled and nodded.

"Little girl, have you been here before, how did you know you were looking for me?"

The old man asked Jona with a smile.

"Yes, I used to come here when I was a kid, but I haven't been back in a long time. ”

Jona smiled and nodded.

"Oh, I can see that this dress doesn't look like people from our village, okay, two little dolls, wait a minute, I'll make a phone call and ask someone to take you there right away." ”

The old man said with a chuckle, then took out the old man's machine in his pocket and made a call.

After making the call, the old man smiled and said to Qiao Na and Cheng Tian

"Little doll, go and wait outside, the boat will come soon. ”

The old man said with a smile.

"Well, thank you Grandpa. ”

Jona smiled and thanked the old man, and then dragged Cheng Tian out.

Sure enough, when they walked to the edge of the reservoir, they could vaguely see a fishing boat approaching the two of them, and a moment later, they came to the two of them.

"Two dolls, are you going to the island in the middle of the lake?"

The boat was driven by a gasoline paddle machine, and it was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties who drove the boat to the shore and asked Cheng Tian with a smile.

"Yes, uncle, how much does it cost to go to the island in the middle of the lake now?"

Jona asked with a smile.

"Five dollars per person. ”

The uncle replied with a smile.

"It's so expensive! I remember that in the past, I only had one piece per person. ”

Jona pouted and complained.

"Girl, you must have been a long time ago! At least three years ago, it was five yuan per person!"

The uncle said with a laugh.

"Five dollars is five dollars, but Uncle must remember to come and pick us up. ”

Jona also knew that prices were skyrocketing now, so she didn't argue with her uncle, but just chuckled and said after getting on the boat.

"Okay, how long are you going to play on the island, I'll come and pick you up then. ”

Uncle smiled and nodded.

"We're going to walk around for an hour or so. ”

Seeing that Qiao Na looked at herself, Cheng Tian said with a smile.

"Alright, little doll, get on the boat, and I'll take you there. ”

The uncle nodded, beckoned Cheng Tian to get on the boat, and then grabbed the rope of the paddle machine and pulled it hard, started the paddle machine, and then drove the boat to the island in the middle of the lake.

"The two dolls are so fun, uncle, I'll pick you up in an hour. ”

After the uncle sent the two to the island in the middle of the lake, he waved goodbye to them.

"Nana, did you come to the island often?"

After the two went to the island, Cheng Tian asked Jona curiously.

"Yes, I used to play here with my friends, but I didn't play much, and everyone's family conditions were not very good, so I usually squeezed out a little pocket money from the school's food fee, and then took a boat to play on this island. ”

Jona smiled and nodded.

"By the way, Nana, what about your little friends, why didn't you see them coming to play with you when you came back?"

Cheng Tian asked curiously.

"Most of them have gone out to work, and some of their friends have got married, and no one is there. ”

Jona said with some frustration.

Cheng Tian was also silent, he knew that these were all facts, and many children in the countryside had already begun to run for a living at about this age.

"Brother Xia, I'll take you to places where we often play. ”

Jona quickly adjusted, pulling Chengtian along a path towards the center of the island, and then saw a small cabin at the end of the path.

"You built this cabin?"

Cheng Tian asked curiously.

"Of course not, it was built by the fishermen, but then it became our playground, and the fishermen rarely come here, but it seems that there are still people who clean it often. ”

Looking at the structure of the cabin, it is not dilapidated because of their departure, it is obvious that someone maintains it on a daily basis.

"What do you usually play here?"

Cheng Tian asked curiously.

"There are a lot of them, playing at home, roasting sweet potatoes or something, every day I will play until it is almost dark before I go back, sometimes I play too late and I don't need to have a fight, and the family is also worried about falling into the water or something, so they don't let us come here to play, we usually come here secretly to play. Okay, Brother Tian, let's go in and have a look. ”

Jona replied with a smile.

"There's no one in there, right?"

Cheng Tian asked with some hesitation.

"No, who is going to come here without any trouble!"

Jona chuckled and shook her head, then pushed open the door to the cabin, and heard a woman's scream coming from inside. Then Jona ran out of the room with a flushed face.

"I told you about someone. ”

Cheng Tian gloated.

"Shame on you, let's go!"

Jona said, pulling Cheng Tiantian's arm.

"Hey, little girl, just leave after disturbing others?"

At this moment, a man's voice came from the cabin, and then a man in disheveled clothes walked out of the cabin.

"Sorry, we didn't know there was anyone inside. ”

Jona lowered her head and didn't dare to speak, so she smiled and apologized on her behalf.

"It's still polite, little girl, remember to knock on the door when you enter the house. ”

The man was about thirty-four years old, dressed and looked pretty good, and after a while, a gorgeous woman in her twenties walked out, stood behind the man, and looked at the two of them with a light smile, and it was not difficult to see the situation in the wooden house from the ruddy on her face.

"I'm sorry. ”

Jona's head was about to be buried in her chest, her face was flushed, she lowered her head and timidly pulled Chengtian's arm, and apologized in a low voice.

"Forget it, this is for you young people. ”

The man didn't intend to pursue it, so he waved his hand generously, pulled the woman next to him out of the cabin, and walked towards the outside of the island.
