Chapter 5: The all-round hillbilly
Fu Shubao had obviously freshened up, changed into a barely white T-shirt, khaki pants, and his hair was half-wet on his forehead, which was still refreshing, and he pulled Sophie's suitcase, which was also cleaned, and it was as white as new.
"Mom, haven't rested yet?" Xiaoyun stepped forward to help her mother, and Sophie saw that the grandmother was walking a little lame, not a serious kind, but a little staggering.
Fu Shubao stood outside the door, holding the lever with both hands, and bowed his head slightly: "Aunt Sophie, say sorry again, I'm sorry!"
Sophie wanted to have a seizure when she heard this aunt, but she would try to be decent in front of the old man.
The mother-in-law was clear-minded, and noticed that Sophie's face had changed a little, and scolded her son: "Call Sophie girl, she is not from Toushan Village, and she doesn't know what an aunt is." ”
Uncle Fu bowed his head: "Miss Sophie, I'm sorry. ”
Sophie generously said to her nanny, "It's okay, you can call me Feifei." ”
"Uncle Bao come in and sit!" Xiaoyun beckoned,
"No need. Fu Shubao stood outside the door and stretched out his hand to push his luggage inside, it was inconvenient for me to enter Mr. Xiaoyun's room.
Sophie swept away the mosquitoes flying in front of her, and the hillbilly pestle couldn't close the door outside, attracting a room of mosquitoes.
"Just ask Uncle Bao to bring the luggage, why do you want to go?" Xiaoyun helped her mother sit down and said,
"I heard Uncle Bao say that he offended Su... Miss Feifei, she sincerely led him to make amends. ”
The nanny's gray hair is combed neatly and fittingly, the two round apricot eyes are deep and bright, and she looks very energetic, although the goose egg face has been loose and wrinkled, it is not difficult to see that she must be a beauty when she is young, she speaks gently and peacefully, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is like a lady.
"Nanny, don't say that, it's just a trivial matter, isn't it just a matter of taking a bath?" Somehow, Sophie felt that Nanny was very kind, a bit like her deceased grandmother,
"Miss Feifei, it's good if you don't blame him, he goes straight to the bottom when he is a child, and he is rough. "The nanny didn't want to go when she heard her son's oolong matter, and Mr. Xiaoyun's guests were the VIPs of Toushan Village, so after she said that her son, she didn't worry about coming over to take a look, and now she is relieved to see Sophie so understandable.
Sending away the nanny, as soon as she closed the door, Sophie immediately lit a few mosquito coils,
Sophie was curious: "Nanny is not like a countryman. ”
"I heard that when she was young, her family came to Toushan Village from the north, and it seemed to be a scholarly generation, so she didn't leave for some reason. "Xiaoyun is also half-understood,
"Then why doesn't the nanny teach his son, and he doesn't have to be a water delivery worker!" Sophie patted the mosquito and said in a slightly slighter tone,
"He's not a water delivery worker, so he helps a friend for a few days, and he's usually farming here, raising chickens or something. Xiaoyun suddenly remembered something, "I heard that Shu Bao used to be a top student here, and after graduating from high school, he could have entered two universities, just to take care of his parents and didn't go out to study, you also saw that Bao Bao Ma had a bad leg, Bao Dad had something to do with his lumbar spine, he was a camel, but Bao Dad died a year ago." ”
"Smack!" Sophie slapped her arm, dead mosquito! dare to bite me?
Sophie swept her palms: "I see." Xiaoyun said that now the most people left in the village are the elderly and children, and the young people all go out to work to make money, so Fu Shubao is an exception.
Sophie suddenly had a whimsical and smiled whimsily, "If you decide to stay here, or you will accept him, he is also handsome, has a high school level, and is filial, and most importantly, has a strong body, strong ~ strong arms." After saying that, she put a hoop ~ around Xiaoyun's neck,
Xiaoyun couldn't move, struggling and begging for mercy: "Let me go, I'm not a big guy, I only love Wenqing." ”
"Where this bird doesn't pull ~, where is Wenqing, huh?" Sophie intensified her threat,
Xiaoyun twisted Sophie's waist with his backhand, and took the opportunity to break away: "Take care of yourself, don't let Ben fly out of your Five Finger Mountain." After saying that, he stretched out his hand and made a cat scratch gesture, and then turned to take a bath.
Sophie remembered to call Ben, took out his mobile phone and turned out that he had sent a few messages, the last one was half an hour ago, saying that he was going to a meeting, Sophie knew that he had a meeting for at least two hours, so he had to send him a message to report his safety.

"Oh oh--" Sophie was woken up by the rooster in the middle of the morning, and Xiaoyun was already dressed and combing her hair,
Sophie was very sleepy, pulled up the quilt to cover her head, and her voice was buzzing: "Get up so early, it's not dawn yet!"
"You sleep a little longer, and I'll come back from my lunch break to eat with you." Seeing that Sophie didn't answer, Xiaoyun walked over to uncover the quilt, Sophie's eyes were closed, her eyelashes were stained with eye feces, her thick long curls crawled on her face, and a few pinches of wet hair stained with water still ran into the quilt.
"I heard, I heard. Sophie muttered as if in a dream, and after speaking, she sucked a little water,
Xiaoyun was no longer surprised by Sophie's terrifying sleeping appearance, and she advised: "When you wake up, take a walk around, don't go to a deserted place." ”
Sophie vaguely answered and pulled back the quilt to continue sleeping.
The noise outside became more and more noisy, the noise of children, the reprimand of teachers, the broadcast of the morning meeting, until the bell rang in class and the voices subsided slightly, and then to the barking of dogs, chickens, pigs, and motors, Sophie tossed and turned, and finally sat up irritably.
Sophie dragged her steps to the toilet like a zombie, and was startled by the person in the mirror, her face was pale, her hair was fluffy, her eyes were seriously dark and covered with eye feces, and there were a string of water stains at the corners of her mouth, Sophie wiped her mouth, chatted with Xiaoyun last night, forgot to curl her hair and do facial treatment, and now her hair is like weeds, and she has to wash her hair again to restyle, thinking that she didn't know anyone here, she tied a ball head at random, applied sunscreen, and went out in home clothes.
The students in the classroom were concentrating on the lesson, and turned to the small playground to be quiet and pretty, only a few yellow roosters were walking, Sophie put up her sunglasses, held up an umbrella and planned to go out for a walk, dozens of adobe houses were scattered outside, a few old people gathered together to chat and drink tea, someone was squatting and working in a small field, and someone was pushing a machine to turn over the soil on a muddy field opposite, and the dust was rolling, Sophie felt bored, so she planned to turn back.
"Miss Feifei, morning!" was Fu Shubao's voice, he put down the cultivator, and ran over with the towel hanging around his neck while wiping his sweat.
Sophie tugged at the corners of her mouth and said perfunctorily, she was Xiaoyun's neighbor, and she was not good at saving face.
"Have you had breakfast?" Fu Shubao put on a straw hat, only his mouth was exposed, and he grinned happily with eight neat white teeth.
Sophie looked through his sunglasses, he was covered in mud, his yellowed vest was loose and worn on his body, wet with sweat, dirty and smelly, except for a row of teeth that were white, it seemed that his whole body was either black or yellow.
"I've eaten it. Sophie resisted the urge to cover her nose and whispered,
"Wait a minute. After Fu Shubao finished speaking, he ran to an adobe house diagonally opposite, and soon came out with a few brown objects in his hand, and when he looked closer, it turned out to be dry and black bacon, and the most disgusting thing was that there were dozens of flies circling around, Sophie understood his intentions, and said before he could open it: "I don't like bacon." ”
Fu Shubao was a little disappointed, and after a while, he laughed out again with white teeth, and he handed the bacon to Sophie: "It's okay, Teacher Xiaoyun likes it, you give it to her!"
Sophie bounced away, swept away the flies in front of her, and held back her disgust: "Take it away, I... I'm allergic. ”
"They all said it was for Teacher Xiaoyun to eat. "Uncle Fu lifted the bacon,
Sophie stared at the flies flying happily around the bacon in front of her, and she held her breath and said, "Take it away! I have allergic eyes and can't look greasy. ”
Fu Shubao immediately lowered his hand, I have heard of eating greasy allergies, it is really rare to see greasy allergies, Fu Shubao remembered the most important thing, and handed an oil-stained envelope to Sophie: "This money will pay you." ”
Sophie didn't want to take it, so she smirked: "No need, the clothes are not worth much, they were washed last night and can still be worn." ”
Fu Shubao was puzzled: "Can you really wash it off?"
"I brought a special laundry detergent and it washed off, it's fine. "Sophie just wants to send him away as soon as possible,
Seeing Fu Shubao nodded, Sophie was secretly relieved, thinking about finding a chance to get out, and saw him take out the red yarn from the envelope, lowered his head and counted it twice, a few were stuffed into his trouser pocket, and a few were put back in the envelope, he handed the envelope over again: "I was going to pay you 300 clothes and 300 shoes, but since the clothes can be washed, I will only pay 300 for your shoes, and I will be responsible for the laundry detergent as 100 yuan, a total of 400 yuan here." ”
Sophie was a little confused by what he said, and it took a while to digest it before she understood, hey, too! You hillbilly, you don't understand the kind words you say? You are also in charge of laundry detergent? Do you want to praise you for being generous?
Sophie grabbed the envelope, took out a hundred from it, handed it to him, and said indignantly: "The money for this rusty shoe is flat." ”
Fu Shubao waved his hand and said in a straight voice: "No, I sent you the shoes to make amends." His expression was as serious as if he had given him a ten-carat diamond.
"Three hundred yuan and a pair of cloth shoes should be reparation?" Sophie raised her eyebrows, with a look of disdain,
Fu Shubao shook his head and corrected: "Three hundred is to compensate for your shoes, one hundred is the money for laundry detergent, and rusty shoes are to compensate for the crime." ”
"You..." Sophie rolled her eyes back, pulled back the money and turned around and left, wasting time, unable to communicate, in vain you graduated from high school, you were stunned to be a hillbilly, and your IQ returned to the dirt, and you were in the ground!
Fu Shubao swept away the fly on the tip of his nose, not understanding what was wrong with this girl.
******
Back in Xiaoyun's room, Sophie and Ah Xiang talked on the phone to work, the time was still early, Ben usually got up in the afternoon, and when she was bored, Xiaoyun called her to ask her to go to lunch.
Lunch is eaten in the cafeteria, students eat box lunches, six teachers plus Sophie have two meat and two vegetables plus a soup, although it is not rich, but the taste is light and sweet, the vegetables are fresh and sweet, unlike the supermarket bought light and tasteless, the bacon is moderately soft and hard, the fat distribution is just right, the sweet flavor is beautiful, and the teeth are fragrant, Sophie ate more than a bowl of rice with bacon.
Xiaoyun had a two-hour lunch break, and after eating, she led Sophie around.
In addition to the overlapping hills around, there are fields and fish ponds, Sophie took a few photos and was not interested, she asked Xiaoyun: "Why are they not as beautiful as the photos you posted on Moments?"
She took out the photo that looked like a fairy mirror in the world and showed it to Xiao Yun, who pointed to a relatively high mountain on the back and said, "I took it on it, and if it's foggy, it's like this." ”
Sophie's eyes lit up: "Is there now?"
"Yes, want to go?"
Sophie nodded happily, Danhuang's eyes were crooked with a smile, and the bridge of her nose was a little raised, she didn't wear makeup today, and she tied up her balls, like her in college, in fact, Xiaoyun prefers this kind of Sophie, bright and refreshing.
Xiaoyun thought for a while: "I'll try to transfer classes with other teachers, and I'll take you there tomorrow?" Sophie will leave the day after tomorrow, and if she doesn't transfer classes, she won't have time at all, and it will take half a day to go up the mountain to play.
When I went back to school, I passed by a fish pond and saw Fu Shubao catching fish.
"This Fu Shubao farms, raises chickens, and fishes, and is really an all-round hillbilly. Sophie said coolly,
"He also raises pigs and grows peppercorns, and now his family produces the most in Toushan Village. ”
"The big landlord of Toushan Village?" Sophie curled the corners of her mouth and said sarcastically,
On the contrary, his family is the poorest, and others go out to earn far more money than him, so he will do whatever he can make here. Xiaoyun sighed slightly, she actually felt sorry for Uncle Fu in her heart, a good young man was diligent and smart, so he could only succumb to this small village.
At this time, Uncle Fu set up a long fishing net and landed it, and the net hooked more than a dozen fish and many small shrimps and crabs.
Xiaoyun's chin pointed to the fishing net, and his tone was helpless: "In addition to keeping it for yourself, the rest is sold in the town, how much do you think it can be sold?"
"Go over and see. Sophie pulled Xiaoyun and walked towards Fu Shubao.
"Uncle Fu. "Sophie called,
Fu Shubao was burying his head in untying the shrimp in the net, when he heard the sound, he looked up, and when he saw that it was Sophie and Xiaoyun, he laughed, still with those eight teeth: "Teacher Xiaoyun, Miss Feifei." ”
"Uncle Fu, I want to buy fish. Sophie said,
"You pick, I'll send you. Fu Shubao said enthusiastically,
"Don't, don't eat it if you send it to me. "Sophie's mouth is deflated,
"Scared?" Fu Shubao was stunned for a moment, and soon said, "No! ”
Fei Fei has always had a knife mouth and a tofu heart, knowing that she wanted to help Fu Shubao, Xiaoyun helped: "Fei Fei promised to invite me to eat, if you don't charge money, she will invite me to eat in the town, it's more expensive!"
Fu Shubao thought about it for a while, in addition to being expensive to eat in the town, the biggest problem was that the mountain roads to pass through were in worse condition, and he was afraid that Sophie would get motion sickness again, so he had to say: "Okay! ”
Sophie squatted down with great interest, and there were a few yellow fish that were particularly violent, and when they looked closer, they were golden, and she asked, "What kind of fish are these?"
"Yellow and spicy dice, delicious, the fish is fresh and smooth. "Uncle Fu replied,
Sophie stretched out her hand to touch it, but was close to being drunk by Uncle Fu: "Be careful of being stabbed." ”
I don't know if it was Sophie's action that startled the fish, or if it was frightened by Fu Shubao's voice, the fish broke out of the net and bounced straight at Sophie, she retreated in surprise,
"Poof!"
