It was already noon when he returned to Qingquan Village after dealing with the chores in the mountain pass, and Xin Dongfeng said apologetically: "Mr. Geng, Mr. Li, I'm really sorry! Our village can't even guarantee your personal safety." As the village party secretary, I have an unshirkable responsibility to apologize to you on behalf of the old and young masters of the village. ”

Geng Zhiyuan waved his hand and said: "Secretary Xin, this matter has nothing to do with you, it is the people from Xiashan Village who stopped the car to find fault, don't take it to heart." ”

Xin Dongfeng said ashamedly: "It's still my incompetence that I let the people in Xiashan Village block the road and block the traffic, and I will earn it back sooner or later." ”

Xin Jianjun said indignantly: "Dongfeng, do you still need it sooner or later? Let's block the barrage now, and see what the people in the mountain village use to water the ground." ”

Xin Dongfeng exclaimed: "Yes, why didn't I think of the dam? Jianjun, you have a good idea!"

Seeing Geng Zhiyuan looking at them with a puzzled expression, Xin Dongfeng hurriedly explained: "There is a small reservoir halfway up the mountain, which was built by our village and Gushan Village together. Every year in the spring drought, we rely on water from the reservoir to save the emergency, and the Taohua Village and Xiashan Village below also count on us to release water to irrigate the woodland. Since Xiashan Village is unsympathetic and blocks the road and traffic, our Qingquan Village is not polite. ”

"Yes, if he dares to block the way, we won't release the water. Xin Jianjun said categorically.

Spring ploughing, summer ploughing, autumn harvest, winter storage, the critical season of spring ploughing suddenly cut off the water can be said to be the life of the peasants. Geng Zhiyuan was worried: "If the water is cut off, Xiashan Village and Peach Blossom Village can't find you to fight hard?"

"Peach Blossom Village is easy to do. Xin Dongfeng said: "I said hello to Lao Zeng, we released the water on time, and he built a small dam at the head of the village, just don't let the water flow down again." ”

The grievances and hatreds between villages, Geng Zhiyuan didn't want to participate easily, he thought for a while and said: "Today, I won't leave with Teacher Li, so that the people from the mountain village can stop us on the road to retaliate." ”

Xin Dongfeng pondered: "It's okay, safety first." I'll let people inquire first, so that I don't have to go down to the mountain village to produce any more moths. ”

At noon, I had a peasant meal at Xin Dongfeng's house as usual. After eating and drinking, Geng Zhiyuan took Li Xing to the pure water plant, and Sun Daqi and the people had been waiting at the gate of the factory for a long time.

"Old Sun, I have to stay here tonight, is there a place?" Geng Zhiyuan said unceremoniously when he saw Sun Daqi.

Sun Daqi hurriedly replied: "Yes, there is a guest room reserved for you alone, and no one has ever lived in it." ”

"Oh, why is it so extravagant? Isn't it a waste to keep a place for others to live in?" Geng Zhiyuan wondered.

Sun Daqi hesitated and said, "It was ordered by Mr. Su, she said...... She said......"

"My wife?" Geng Zhiyuan said impatiently: "You just say what she says, why are you still hiding it?"

Sun Daqi glanced at Li Xing and said boldly: "Mr. Su said that if you come to the mountain, you must live in the factory, not in the village." ”

Geng Zhiyuan suddenly woke up to the fact that Su Qing was preventing himself from becoming entangled with Li Xing, and said with relief: "That's okay, I have to listen to my wife, just live in the factory." ”

Li Xing's face was slightly red when he listened, and he said angrily: "Sister-in-law is really, just thinking about you, what should I do?"

"Don't you have a dormitory in the village school? Go back and live there. "Geng Zhiyuan can't see through it.

In front of Sun Daqi, Li Xing was embarrassed to reason with Geng Zhiyuan, so he reluctantly said, "Okay then." ”

"Mr. Li can also live in the factory. Sun Daqi said without a smile: "There is still one next door to Mr. Geng's room, but there is no bathroom, so if you want to take a bath, you have to go to Mr. Geng's room." ”

Geng Zhiyuan frowned when he heard this, Sun Daqi really didn't open any pot, he had already avoided Li Xing as much as possible, couldn't this guy see it at all.

"Alright then, I'll live in the factory too. Li Xing said with joy in his heart. Ever since she saw Geng Zhiyuan's skills, a heart has been placed on him, and only with him can she feel a little safe.

The guest room left for Geng Zhiyuan alone is warm and elegant, and it can be seen that it is Su Qing's favorite style. Geng Zhiyuan was lying on the bed, as if he smelled his wife's smell, and secretly complained: "Bad Qingqing, don't tell me such a big deal, it's true! ”

After a rare comfortable nap, Geng Zhiyuan had just gotten out of bed, and Xin Dongfeng came to visit on time.

"Ji Hongyu gathered a group of people who are ready to retaliate against you, in order to prevent accidents, don't go down the mountain in the past two days. Xin Dongfeng said hatefully: "I'll cut off his water for two days first, and wait for him to beg us." ”

Su Qing was almost due to give birth, Geng Zhiyuan was very concerned about his wife's safety, and after hesitating, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll stay for two days." ”

Seeing his unhappy face, Xin Dongfeng turned his head to Li Xing and said, "Teacher Li, Geng is always a guest in our village, and in the past two days, you have led him around to relax, so as to save him from being bored." ”

This was exactly what Li Xing wanted, and Wan Er smiled and said, "Okay, no problem." ”

Geng Zhiyuan didn't have any intention of playing in the mountains and rivers, but he couldn't stand Li Xingsheng's hard drag, so he had to follow her to climb the back mountain and wander around.

"Look!" Li Xing stood on the top of the mountain and pointed to the distance, "That is Ningcheng over there." ”

Geng Zhiyuan looked in the direction of her finger, and saw a dark forest of high-rise buildings at the intersection of the northern heaven and earth. He looked at the lotus pod with his hand, and said with emotion: "Climb Mount Tai and the world, climb Qingquan Mountain and Xiaoning City." ”

Li Xing pursed his lips and smiled: "Brother Geng is so poetic, and he can learn from Confucius to make two poems." ”

Geng Zhiyuan laughed at himself: "Where do I dare to compare with Confucius, it's just a few words that I have a feeling." ”

The two of them walked along the ridge of the mountain, the spring equinox had passed, and there were signs of recovery all over the mountains, and a little wild flowers were scattered among the withered yellow grass, as if to tell people that the footsteps of spring were coming.

Breathing in the fresh air and looking at the wide world, people can't help but be broad-minded. Li Xing picked a few wild flowers, raised them in his hand and waved them to his face, and said with a smile: "Brother Geng, am I good-looking?"

Geng Zhiyuan's heart trembled, and he hurriedly looked away and said, "It's beautiful! Otherwise, everyone in the village will call you a fairy." ”

"Am I good-looking or is Su Qing good-looking?" Only the two of them were together in heaven and earth, and Li Xing finally mustered up the courage to ask.

Geng Zhiyuan glanced at her and said firmly: "Of course my wife is good-looking." ”

"Why? I'm not as good as my sister-in-law at all?" Li Xingqiang said with a smile.

"Li Xing......" Geng Zhiyuan persuaded softly: "You are very beautiful and excellent." In the eyes of others, maybe you are more beautiful than Su Qing. But in the eyes of a lover, Qingqing is the most beautiful woman in the world in my opinion. ”

Geng Zhiyuan is really a man who is dedicated to keeping one, Li Xing admired and was a little disappointed at the same time, she didn't give up and said: "If you didn't break up with Wei Xiao back then, would you still like Su Qing?"

Geng Zhiyuan smiled slightly, and told him the twists and turns of meeting and falling in love with Su Qing, Li Xing was stunned when he heard it, and secretly regretted it: "Brother Geng and Su Qing still have such a twists and turns and moving story, why didn't I get such a good man?"

She thought about it again: "If I were Su Qing, when Brother Geng was sick and might be paralyzed, would I be like Su Qing, would I rather sacrifice my own happiness to take care of him? I'm afraid I wouldn't make such a big determination, after all, I'm still more selfish." ”

Relieved, Li Xing said abruptly: "Brother Geng, sister-in-law is so good to you." ”

"Yes!" Geng Zhiyuan looked in the direction of Ningcheng and sighed: "That's why I bowed down to my wife, and I will do whatever I want." ”

An open-hearted conversation dissolved Li Xingfei's thoughts, and the two finally returned to the familiar relationship between their loved ones and friends.

"Can you watch the stars with me at night? Li Xing asked tentatively.

"Okay!" Geng Zhiyuan yearned: "I haven't calmed down to look at the stars for a long time, and I will accompany you to count the stars tonight." ”

That night, on the empty school playground, Geng Zhiyuan accompanied Li Xing to look up at the dark sky full of stars, and counted the stars one after another.

Qingquan Village dared to cut off the water source, and after the villagers of Xiashan Village reported the situation of the broken stream to Ji Hongyu, he immediately thought that this was Qingquan Village's retaliation.

What should I do? Xiashan Village dares to block the road and block traffic, and Qingquan Village certainly dares to cut off the water flow. At the end of March, it was a good time for spring plowing and replenishing moisture, and the stream on the mountain was cut off all of a sudden, and the villagers in Xiashan Village couldn't help but be anxious, and gathered in the village committee to urge Ji Hongyu to hurry up and find a way.

Ji Hongyu originally wanted to pull Peach Blossom Village to the mountains to put pressure on Qingquan Village, but he didn't expect that there was also water in Peach Blossom Village, but it was intercepted from Peach Blossom Village.

Ji Hongyu found Zeng Chunrong and wanted to beg him to stealthily dig a hole in the small dam at the head of the village and put some water down. Zeng Chunrong complained bitterly and said: "Lao Ji, Lao Xin has said hello to me, and the water is released regularly and quantitatively." If I had dug the hole and put the water on you, our village would be useless. ”

"Xin Dongfeng on this dog day, he is too desperate to do things!" Ji Hongyu couldn't help but scold.

Zeng Chunrong said with a smile: "Lao Ji, I didn't say you, the matter of blocking the road and blocking the traffic is indeed what you did not do." It's spring now, and when autumn comes, our village has to use a car to pull fruit down the mountain. At that time, will your village collect our village's money?"

"Uh...... This ......" Ji Hongyu was speechless by him, and returned to the village in a daze.

The attempt to win over Taohua Village completely failed, if the villagers were summoned to fight up the mountain, the other party would be two villages, Qingquan Village and Gushan Village, and once the battle really broke out, Xiashan Village would definitely not be able to take advantage.

The common people still live on the harvest in the field, and when the villagers saw that Ji Hongyu returned in disappointment, they noisily surrounded the village committee.

People had to bow their heads under the eaves, Ji Hongyu spat on the ground and yelled at everyone: "Don't make any noise! I'll go to the mountain to find Xin Dongfeng to intercede, and try to let him put down the water today, it's all right?"

The struggle up and down the mountain finally came to an end when the mountain village relented and conceded defeat. Xiashan Village has released the barricades, Qingquan Village has also opened the sluice, and the two villages have returned to normal life, but unfortunately the relationship can never go back to the past.
