Chapter 63: Love Is That Simple
Zhao Liu's family also grows sweetcabbage, with only three acres of land, placed in Qingtian Village, as if it is the first big vegetable planter. At this time, it was already as high as a finger, and in order to ensure the yield, Zhao Liu buried a lot of farm manure in the field.
Zhang Fan and Zhao Yuqing chatted while walking, without their parents, the two talked and laughed, and they were not so cold.
Only then did he know that Zhao Yuqing had no shortage of suitors, from high school to college, and even now in the town middle school, there were also young male teachers to talk to.
When I was in college, I also fell in love once. can get along for a while, and find that the man is not manly enough. Once when she went out to sing, his buddies persuaded her to drink, knowing that she couldn't drink, and she didn't know how to help block it, and she laughed at it, which made her completely disappointed.
She thinks that that kind of man seems to be very sleek, but he is very unreliable.
Since then, he has remained single until now. The male teacher who taught at the town middle school was not flattering enough, so he kept his distance.
"It's all me saying, what about you, senior brother? With your conditions, there is no female hook-up?" Zhao Yuqing didn't believe it very much, the girls now are very bold, and boys are afraid of confession.
Zhang Fan was very single-minded at that time: "Without an economic foundation, it is not comfortable to fall in love." ”
In the final analysis, I was poor at the time, and I didn't have the courage or ability to fall in love. It may be humiliating to say it, but it's a very practical reality.
Seeing that Zhang Fan explained his situation in one sentence, Zhao Yuqing was very depressed, so couldn't he say in detail?
"You're unmarried, I'm not married, or let's get together and live together. Zhao Yuqing spoke very directly, which always caught Zhang Fan off guard.
In fact, sometimes love is very simple, if you like it, say it, and pursue it! It's all Zhao Yuqing's own way of doing things, she doesn't like to go around in circles, subtle, which makes people suspicious and anxious.
There is no doubt that she has a good impression of Zhang Fan, especially when she reunites again, and she feels that everyone has fate.
"It's too fast, isn't it? We just met, it's too child's play. After all, it's an emotional thing, so I think it's better to go with the flow. "Zhang Fan can't cry or laugh, you are a woman, can't you be tactful?
Since they all said it, Zhao Yuqing simply said a little more domineering: "What's fast, what's fast?
The mouth is arrogant, his face is still slightly red, and his heart is apprehensive, shy, and expectant. Fortunately, Zhang Fan did not refuse on the spot, indicating that his approach was correct.
Women chase men in the veil! The ancients did not deceive others.
Zhang Fan looked at Zhao Yuqing carefully for a while, and then smiled: "You don't feel that you are at a loss." ”
A woman in the family has put down her face, when it comes to this, what is he still reserved about as a big man?
"What kind of loss, you don't know, my family doesn't know how much they want me to marry you, and the people in the village are the same. Zhao Yuqing's whole person became cheerful.
The apprehension in his heart was swept away, and when Zhao Fan said this, it was equivalent to having no objection, which showed that he also had a good impression of her.
"Then let's get vaccinated for a while! I'm a very boring person, I don't know much about romance, so don't be too disappointed in the end." Zhang Fan thought that he also had to deal with the uncle and aunt at home, so he hit it off.
A lot of the time, it's so simple for a man and a woman to walk together, and most of the romantic plots in the TV series are fictional. Those who have been pursuing for several years, or even more than ten years, have achieved positive results, but in fact they have a lot of scruples and are asking for troubles for themselves.
Village Chief Zhao didn't come to disturb, regardless of Zhang Fan and they went to the vegetable field or drilled the corn field.
Zhang Fan The more they talked, the more they fell in love, to be honest, Zhang Fan himself didn't know if this was love. However, he suddenly enjoyed the existence of one more person in his heart.
When he returned to Zhao Liu's house again, Zhang Fan changed his name to call other people's uncles and aunts, and Zhao Liu's family was so happy that they smiled and began to kill chickens and ducks for a hearty meal.
Zhao Yuqing's grandfather chatted for a while, and then went outside the door again to chop firewood.
Don't look at the old man's age, the kung fu of chopping wood is sharper than that of young people, and he can always find the right angle to cut it down. Zhang Fan was also embarrassed to sit and wait for food, so he went outside the door to help the old man.
The open space next to the house was full of dead trees, stumps, roots, and the like.
In the eyes of many people, they may not be environmentally friendly, thinking that they will destroy vegetation and destroy forests.
Seriously, no. The carbon dioxide produced by villagers burning firewood is far from enough for the forest to absorb. Why do you need to spend money on burning gas when there is more convenient and cheaper fuel? As for destroying vegetation, it is also nonsense, the villagers are very measured, and all they cut back are dead trees.
"Old man, I'll split for a while. Zhang Fan took the initiative to speak.
Old Man Zhao hesitated for a moment: "Can you do these rough jobs?"
He knew that the young man in front of him was an authentic college student, his hands were used to carry a pen, could he use an axe? He had to doubt, and he had no intention of looking down on him.
In fact, people in the countryside generally believe that the hand that can carry a pen is better than carrying a hoe.
"It shouldn't be difficult, the trunk is easy to split, but the roots are not so easy to get. Zhang Fan said truthfully.
The old man was very happy to hear it, and he was a little closer to Zhang Fan, it was a bit embarrassing for a rural child not to be able to chop firewood.
"It's not difficult to have roots, you look at this piece, cut it down here, and make sure it doesn't take much effort. The old man pointed.
Zhang Fan carried the axe, took a breath, and slashed towards the old man's instructions. Sure enough, the sound cracked into two pieces, which seemed to be really labor-saving. I have to say that if there is an old man in the family, they have too much life experience, and they can often benefit you immensely.
The old man picked up the two white and fat wood maggots hidden in the roots of the dead wood.
Wood maggots have a high protein content, and when they are roasted on the fire, they are fragrant and have an endless aftertaste. Of course, many people may look at it with a psychological disorder and feel disgusted.
In fact, wood maggots are a delicacy, but unfortunately not ordinary people can enjoy them.
Old Man Zhao took this bite, got the dead wood home, and deliberately left it for a period of time to let the maggots develop, just so that he could eat some when chopping firewood.
A little frying in oil and serving it with a glass of wine is really the pinnacle of life.
"Have you eaten?" asked the old man with a smile.
"I ate it when I was young, a long time ago. ”
"Let's have a drink that night. As he spoke, he opened the keg next to him and threw two maggots into it.
Zhang Fan saw that the small half bucket inside was full of maggots, and when he looked like there were more than a catty, he suddenly felt a little numb, as if he had lifted a stone and hit his feet.
The old man personally picked a tree stump with roots and came over, as if he was going to continue to instruct Zhang Fan to chop wood.
Zhang Fan looked at the stump, was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said: "Old man, don't chop wood for this stump." ”
