Chapter 192: Taoyuan Village (Ask for Subscription)
Looking at Tang Lifen's confused look, Chen Yang knew that she didn't know how to leave.
Tang Lifen clenched her fists, hammered her knees twice, and said with great annoyance: "Oh, how did I forget this, originally I kept Xiaohua just to let her lead the way, but she said that she wanted to go home to make a fire and boil water, so I asked her to go back first." ”
Seeing her anxious and annoyed look, very cute, Chen Yang still couldn't help but smile and said: "Okay, okay, don't worry, tell me which village she lives in." ”
"Oh, she lives in Taoyuan Village. ”
"Taoyuan Village?" Chen Yang wondered, "That village was relocated collectively a few years ago, why are there still people living in it?"
"You're right, I've heard the same thing from the teachers at school. Because Taoyuan Village is too mountainous and surrounded by stone mountains, the government funded the construction of a new village around the county seat, allowing the villagers of Taoyuan Village to relocate voluntarily. However, I also heard from the teachers at the school that everyone in the village moved away, but Luo Xiaohua's family did not. ”
"Why?" Chen Yang thought was very strange, "I heard that after the relocation, the government will arrange jobs, such as cleaners or some domestic workers, and the income is definitely much better than staying in Taoyuan Village." ”
"Well, that's true, but in this world, there are smart people, and there are also some more 'stupid' people. Either way, it's their own life. ”
"Okay, then let's go to Taoyuan Village and have a look. Chen Yang has been to Taoyuan Village with his friends before, and the water there is very clear, so it is most suitable to drive a motorcycle to swim in the summer.
But that was a long time ago, and then I got older and had a family, so I never went again. I just heard that Taoyuan Village has been relocated collectively.
After leaving Xinwu Village, the car drove about a kilometre to the northwest-bound main road, and then you could see a yellow mud path with a narrow intersection.
Next to the intersection, there is also a road sign with white characters on a blue background, on which the word 'Taoyuan Village' is written.
"See? Chen Yang held the steering wheel with one hand and pointed to the road sign with the other.
Tang Lifen looked at Chen Yang with a suspicious expression, and her good-looking big eyes were full of smiles: "Two big characters?
Chen Yang laughed twice. He won't say it, it's something he deliberately said wrong. Life is so hard, it's not bad to have a little fun once in a while.
"Fasten your seatbelts. Chen Yang parked the car on the side of the road first, and then fastened his seat belt himself.
Rest assured, this is not an idol drama, and there will be no frivolous plots such as men helping women fasten seat belts.
Tang Lifen also fastened her seat belt: "Look at you like this, it seems that this road is not simple." ”
"It's not easy, you'll find out later. "The car went to the right and entered the yellow mud path at the fork next to the road sign.
Facing the last touch of dusk, Chen Yang and Tang Lifen really stepped on the mountain road into Taoyuan Village.
The mountain road under the wheel is by far the most dangerous village road in the entire Yuanshan County and even the entire Yufeng City.
From Xinwu Village to Taoyuan Village, the distance is about a kilometer in a straight line, but it takes an hour for people to get in.
Looking at the stone mountain towering outside the car window, Tang Lifen said: "Nature is really strange, you see, the distance between this Taoyuan Village and your Baishi Village is estimated to be less than five kilometers in a straight line, but your village is surrounded by fertile mud mountains, and Taoyuan Village has always been a stone mountain since the intersection just now." ”
"What's so strange about this, it's the sun in the east and the rain in the west. If nature can be easily seen through, it is not nature that dominates us, but we dominate nature. ”
"Haha, I really didn't expect it, you look silly, and sometimes you speak very philosophically. ”
"Hee-hee. Chen Yang gritted his teeth and smiled, "Teacher Tang, hold on tight." ”
"Huh?" Tang Lifen looked at Chen Yang puzzled, "Hold on to what?"
Chen Yang held the steering wheel of the pickup truck that was struggling to climb the slope with both hands, pouted, and motioned Tang Lifen to look ahead.
Tang Lifen looked forward.
The pickup truck was climbing a very steep hill. Although the slope of the hill is not as exaggerated as close to 90 degrees, it is definitely a steep hill that ordinary cars cannot climb.
If it weren't for Chen Yang's pickup truck, it is estimated that Tang Lifen would have to get out of the car to help.
"Hey, what are you afraid of?" Tang Lifen smiled, "I see that your car is quite stable, it should be fine." ”
"Hey, look ahead. ”
Tang Lifen followed Chen Yang's line of sight——
it!
After the pickup truck climbed to the top of the hill, it came to a very flat path. The path was small and flat, but Tang Lifen was still scared into a cold sweat, and immediately grabbed the doorknob with both hands.
"Oh my God, this, what kind of place is this. Tang Lifen exclaimed.
Seeing her like this, Chen Yang smiled proudly like a child who had succeeded in mischief: "Hehe, this is the way to Taoyuan Village, and this section is relatively easy to walk, after all, it is relatively flat here." ”
"Oh my God, is this still a good walk?" Tang Lifen closed her eyes tightly, trying to drive the image that just came into her eyes out of her mind, "It's a cliff outside." ”
"What is this?" Chen Yang said with a smile, "The cliff outside is only about 100 meters, and you will know what a real cliff is in a while." ”
If it weren't for Chen Yang beside her, Tang Lifen would probably be scared and cry when she heard this.
This isn't the most dangerous road? There are still a few hundred meters of cliffs in a minute? Oh my God, all of a sudden I feel like I've been sold.
"Don't be afraid, Mr. Tang, look at my speed, even if the car really overturns, there is enough time for you to jump out of the car. Seeing that Tang Lifen was so frightened that her face turned pale, Chen Yang reduced the speed of the car to the slowest speed, that is, the few mosquitoes next to him flew faster than his car.
After Tang Lifen felt that the car was indeed stable, she tried to force herself to open her eyes.
As soon as you open your eyes, the first thing that comes into view is the flat path in front of the front of the car, and then the cliff on the outside of the path with no bottom visible.
Because in the car, the bottom of the cliff is naturally not visible.
But in fact, this cliff is not very high.
"Don't worry, this cliff is not very high, only a hundred meters, even if you really fall, it may not be fine. ”
"Please don't keep talking about overturning, falling and so on, okay?" Tang Lifen stiffened in her seat, her eyes straight at the stones and weeds that were slowly moving backwards in front of the front of the car.
"Hahaha, okay, okay, I won't say it, look over there. Chen Yang simply stopped the car and pointed to the west.
Tang Lifen followed his finger and saw a flock of birds flying through the air.
The birds were very small, probably sparrows. They are colorful and brightly colored, and in a flock of birds, there are at least five or six different colors.
At a glance, it seems as if a brocade cloud is passing in front of you at a very fast speed.
After the flock of birds passed, Tang Lifen really saw the sunset in the west. Under the old and clear blue sky, the floating clouds walked leisurely and stubbornly, like a piece of cotton swaying in the wind.
However, its color is much richer than that of the drab white cotton, and at this time, because of the high place, you can faintly see a little shadow of the sun.
However, at this time, the sun was no longer scorching, it let go of everything it had been passionate about, closed its eyes slightly, curled up gently on the top of the mountain, and lay quietly with the leisurely floating clouds.
They have completely forgotten the restlessness and depression of the past, the reincarnation and transpiration, and the ups and downs that were once unsatisfactory......
Because of the gentle impulsiveness of this moment, Sunset is no longer hiding in Tibet, but quiet and elegant like a big girl dating her sweetheart.
They have also forgotten the anxiety of wandering, the confusion of drifting with the wind, and the sadness of not knowing where to return......
They enjoy themselves in the afterglow of the sunset, with light and wide sleeves, decorating the aging sky with the most beautiful posture.
The sun has set.
Tang Lifen's heart was a little shaken.
She had never seen such a beautiful view in such a dangerous situation.
As a result, the cliff outside the car window does not feel dangerous.
She just sighed: "It turns out that Xiaohua has to walk such a mountain road every day, and at the same time, she also sees such a scenery every day." ”
She smiled, and for a moment she didn't know if the poor person was Xiaohua or herself.
The conditions in her home are actually very good, but they can't give her the life she wants. So, after being fed up with her parents' arrangement, she resolutely came to the countryside.
I thought that my knowledge was very broad, and I must have seen more scenery than the people in this mountainous area, but I didn't think that compared with them, my cookie-cutter vision was so vulgar.
Chen Yang's Houttuynia theory and the scenery of Xiaohua are all things she doesn't have.
But she's seen it all now. So, she was lucky. She thought.
Chen Yang looked sideways at Tang Lifen's face flushed by the sunset, and inexplicably felt extremely kind.
He smiled: "That's, so, don't feel sorry for Xiaohua, you have to think that she is very lucky, at least, her parents are still by her side to grow up with her." ”
Many times, money is just something outside the body for people, but family affection is a bond that can never be parted.
Tang Lifen smiled, then looked at the road ahead with a firm face, and nodded: "Yes, let's continue to move forward." ”
Although the road ahead is not wide and smooth, this is not what life is like.
The pickup truck started again, and with a rumbling sound, the car was moving slowly.
The length of the cliff is about 500 meters, and after driving over the cliff, turn a bend and it will be another uphill road.
Moreover, this ramp is steeper than the previous ramp, and it can be climbed by ordinary cars.
Tang Lifen exclaimed: "Oh my God, no one has built such a road." ”
"It's too expensive to build such a mountain road, so it's better to relocate the whole village. Chen Yang told the truth again.
After the car climbed a steep slope, it turned a corner, and it was a cliff again......
This time the cliffs were higher, steeper, and longer, and there were several places where you could just pass through the pickup trucks.
Pickup trucks are still just passing, so it is conceivable that those trucks pulling goods will definitely not be able to enter.
In this way, Tang Lifen was a little strange: "If the truck can't get in, then do the villagers in Taoyuan Village live in caves?"
No, if you don't have a truck, you can't pull bricks, but you don't want to live in a cave.
"You'll find out later." Chen Yang didn't want to reveal the answer in advance.
He knew that after Tang Lifen entered Taoyuan Village, he would definitely be more surprised than when he entered Baishi Village.
"Moreover, the mountains here are all stone mountains." Tang Lifen frowned, looking at the towering mountains on both sides.
These mountains are all stone mountains with very little soil, and it is unrealistic for the villagers to use yellow mud to make bricks like the villagers in Baishi Village.
So, Tang Lifen was really curious, what did Xiaohua's house look like, was it built of wood, or did it live directly on a tree?
If that's the case, it doesn't seem bad, at least there's a shelter from the elements.
After all, the cave is dark, and there are probably not so many caves for the former villagers to live in.
However, fortunately, there is electricity in Taoyuan Village.Tang Lifen looked at the cement telephone pole on the side of the road, and the uneasiness in her heart calmed down a little.
After crossing the cliff, the road is uphill again.
It's endless.
Tang Lifen's brows became more and more furrowed.
"Who's that?" A thin figure appeared on the side of the road in front of the car.
The little figure sat on a large rock on the side of the road, bent over, hanging his head, and looking intently at a book in his hand.
Next to the stone, quietly leaning against an old schoolbag that has completely lost the original pattern and color.
Tang Lifen looked up and called out in surprise: "That's Xiaohua, stop quickly."
The car stopped.Luo Xiaohua heard the sound, looked up, and saw that it was a very big car, and her face was quite surprised.She must not have expected that this car could actually drive in.
"Xiaohua." Tang Lifen got out of the car, shouting Xiaohua's name while running towards her, "Why are you sitting here and not going home?"
Xiaohua saw that the teacher was coming, so she quickly stood up and shouted excitedly, "Teacher, you are really here."
"Xiaohua, why are you sitting here reading alone, why don't you go home?" Tang Lifen put her hand on Xiaohua's head lovingly, and asked softly again.
Xiaohua tilted her little head, looked at the beautiful Teacher Tang, and said with some embarrassment: "Teacher Tang, I will rest here every day."
"Every day?"
"Hmm." Xiaohua nodded.
Tang Lifen was shocked and a little sad.
Xiaohua started school early, so she is the youngest child in the class, and she is not even ten years old this year.
"Why? Why don't you go home first?" Tang Lifen asked reproachfully, "What if you meet a bad person?"
"Haha, what are you talking about? This place, not to mention the bad guys, even murderers will not escape into this place if they run for their lives." Chen Yang couldn't help but tease when he saw Tang Lifen's distressed and reproachful look.
Tang Lifen glared at him fiercely.
He quickly shut up.
