The epidemic has gradually gone away like the annoying phone call, life outside has returned to normal, Miao Zhun is gradually busy, and sometimes it is not so timely to come to see Gulan.

Although Gu Lan looks forward to him every time, it is not the kind of hope that cannot be separated. So whether you come or don't come is also accustomed to it.

On this day, Miao Zhun called, saying that there was a business in the field that was not going well, and he was going to go out. In the past few days, an old crutch with a bad leg will come to give her things, and tidy up the yard for her, tidy up the grass and trees, and do some chores or something. What is the matter, let the Qur'an be the envoy though.

As soon as Gu Lan heard that there was going to be a stranger coming, he was a little worried, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of old crutch is it, is it reliable or not?"

Miao Zhun heard her unease, so he introduced the situation on the phone: "There is no problem with people, and he is also the only descendant of your ancient family here."

According to the generation, he should call your aunt, but this child has no father since he was a child, less discipline, and he has to be like a wild child.

One year he poked a bird's nest on a persimmon tree in the mountains, and the persimmon branch he didn't understand was particularly brittle, and the bird's nest was built on a very high place with fine branches.

His mother carried him behind his back to find a soil doctor who specializes in treating bruises and injuries to take a look, but he didn't know that he picked up the wrong stubble when he was grafted, and when he walked, he saw that the foot was twisted to the side. When he was young, he was called the old crutch, but now he is called the old crutch.

After the old crutch was crutched, his mother died a few years later. He is a disabled person, his reputation is not good, and he has no relatives and friends to help him, so he has not found a daughter-in-law. Now the village committee compound is boiling water, sweeping the floor, and watching the gate. It is equivalent to raising him in the village, and people are reliable. ”

When Gu Lan heard this, his heart was much more reassured. Then he asked, "Does she know who I am?"

"He didn't know who you were, and I didn't tell him. He's more than ten years younger than us, and when he can trick or treat, you went to college in the morning. He doesn't know you, and you can't pretend you don't know, just don't take advantage of him. ”

When he said this, Gu Lan remembered that when his mother was alive, he seemed to have mentioned that there was such a nephew of his own family who did not make trouble, and he didn't care.

Early the next morning, the old crutch came up according to Miao Zhun's orders. After he unloaded the items that Miao Zhun had bought on the three-wheeled motorcycle with a bucket, he asked Gu Lan if there was anything wrong. Gulan said that it was okay, thank you, and led Mao Mao and Meng out for a walk.

This morning, the sun was very good, the whole mountain was warm, and the air was very fragrant, so Gu Lan took them for a while. When I got home, I saw that the old crutch was writhing and turning over the ground.

Don't look at his legs and feet, but he is full of life, and in the space where the dog is walking in Qulan, he has turned over the 20-meter-square piece of land. Gu Lan saw it and asked, "Are you tired?" What do you want to do when you turn over the ground?"

The old crutch didn't raise his head and said: "It's warm, I'll plant some vegetables when I have time one day, and it's convenient for you to eat at ease." ”

I am very happy to plant some vegetables Gulan, not only to eat it to refresh my tongue, but also to look at it. I said thank you, I worked hard for you, and went downstairs to freshen up.

Mao Mao and Meng are still playing in the yard. When I saw the man who turned over the ground, Mao Mao was timid and hid far away. It was fierce but very intimate, running around and not leaving the left and right. After turning over the ground, the old crutch sorted out his tools, said hello to the Gulan in the building, and walked out.

Gulan politely asked him to go in and drink some water through the window, and he didn't hear it. Looking at her back as she walked out, Gu Lan saw that this person was five short stature. In particular, the legs were crutches and short, and they walked forward like a wooden mound on the ground.

The fierce but cheerful followed him out. Gulan shouted violently, and when it looked back, it sprang forward as fast as it could. When he got to the three-wheeled motorcycle, he jumped into the bucket.

Gulan was about to go out to greet him, but when he heard the old crutch scold, he came down obediently. He raised his hand again, and went back to the courtyard with a bang. Gu Lan thought, no wonder this man has climbed the wall and climbed the house since he was a child, and the big wolf dog with such a fierce feeling is like a donkey when he sees him.

The old crutch got into the car and started up, looked back at the building and left. But this hope took Guran by surprise. Not only is this person's legs and feet awkward, but his facial features are also so awkward.

The mouth, eyes, ears and nose are ugly and handsome, how can it be the same as not growing in the right position. The whole crooked melon and cracked dates, no wonder I didn't find a daughter-in-law. Gu Lan thought so, and felt embarrassed for his unkindness.

The days went on like this. Miao Zhun came when Miao Zhun was at home, and the old crutch came when Miao Zhun was not at home. With those vegetable patches, watering and fertilizing, gradually more old crutches came.

Gradually, Gu Lan also had a good impression of the old crutch's diligence, and the two communicated more. But it's just a few daily greetings, don't talk about it, there's nothing to talk about.

The peppers, eggplants, and tomatoes planted in the fields are ready to bloom and set fruit, and the cucumbers and kidney beans have also been put on the shelves. With these crops, the whole yard is more vibrant.

Sometimes Gulan would sit in the yard and watch the old crutch tending to the vegetables, and at this time, the old crutch would be very serious, careful, and energetic.

There were several light rains in succession, as if to welcome the rainy season, the hill was neatly dressed in green straw hats, and the hillside was also neatly clothed in green robes. Clusters and clusters of white, blue, red and yellow flowers are dotted in between, which is particularly gorgeous.

The flowers here are not like the mountain flowers in the south, where there is abundant rain and fertile soil, and they bloom in patches and are allowed to be squandered. The climate here is weak in rainfall and the mountains are barren, and the fine mountain flowers can only bloom one by one, which is pity.

The verdant drips on the bare cliff could not form a waterfall, only fluttering and unfolding like a transparent roller blind. Even so, it was enough to make the surface of the reservoir feel like a wind-blown silk below, and it was like a wind-blown silk below.

In this season, the green mountains and green waters and blue skies are about to merge into one.

It's the most intriguing time. In order to live up to this great time, after the Gulan led the fur and moved violently, he would sit on a huge and extremely smooth granite like a Taishan stone on the edge of the reservoir, and quietly taste the kindness of this mountain, this water, and this heaven and earth under a flat willow tree ten zhang high, thick in two circumferences, with a square crown, and a bunch of emerald green swallows like flowers and fruits.
