"Lao Xu, your hometown is famous!"

As soon as Xu Xiushi returned to the dormitory, his roommate grabbed him and shouted.

"What, what's wrong with my hometown?"

His roommate pulled him to the chair and sat down with a smile, "Your hometown is famous, you know about Zhuang Yan's new book." ”

"yes, I know. Xu Xiushi nodded, of course he knew that Zhuang Yan had released a new book, and as soon as the tutoring class was over, he came back in a hurry, just to read Zhuang Yan's new book.

"But what does Zhuang Yan's new book have to do with my hometown?" Xu Xiushi wondered.

"You'll know when you look at it. The roommate pushed the computer screen on the table in front of him, "You look at the first chapter of this book." ”

"It's also a sale. Xu Xiushi shook his head, but he still moved his gaze to the computer screen.

At this time, his roommate stopped talking, and watched Xu Xiushi read with a smile on the side.

In less than three minutes, Xu Xiushi's eyes widened, "This, the new book is about Chadong?"

The roommate laughed, Xu Xiushi's reaction was what he expected, he said: "Hehe, it's not, didn't you still wonder why Zhuang Yan went to your hometown some time ago, now the truth is revealed, it turns out that the new book is to write about Chadong." ”

Xu Xiushi was surprised and suspicious: "Why would Zhuang Yan want to write about Chadong, it's a small town, and it doesn't have any characteristics." ”

"You have to ask Zhuang Yan himself why he wrote the story of such a small place. People are great writers, of course, the idea is not something that ordinary people can figure out, besides, maybe this is Zhuang Yan's sudden inspiration, to your tea and walk around, there is inspiration, and there is this book. The roommate said.

"Perhaps, his mind is indeed not something we can guess. Xu Xiushi nodded.

The roommate saw that he was still a little out of state, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "Don't think nonsense, let me ask you, do you have an old man on the ferry?

Xu Xiushi was stunned for a moment and shook his head, "No, anyway, I haven't seen any ferryboat old man since I can remember, but there really is a creek over there, where there used to be a ferry, but then a bridge was built, and the ferry was scrapped, and I have seen the boat, soaked in the water, and it was so rotten." ”

The roommate's eyes lit up: "It seems that the ferry boat really exists, and the boat shopkeeper seems to have it, but you are too young, I don't know it." ”

"I don't know, how can Zhuang Yan know? I'm afraid this story is not a real story, and you don't have to find a shadow of reality, it's just a book. Xu Xiushi said.

"You don't know, it doesn't mean that Zhuang Yan doesn't know, watching the video last time, you know that Zhuang Yan and your old man over there are all together, and asking a little old things from them as materials, isn't that a piece of cake?" said the roommate.

Xu Xiushi still shook his head: "The old man in the video is either my grandfather or my uncle, if there are really these old things, I guarantee that I have heard of them, how can I wait until Zhuang Yan goes before they say it." ”

"That's maybe!" The roommate smiled: "Otherwise, Zhuang Yan is a great writer, we are still ordinary people, maybe this is the gap, your grandfather doesn't tell you these things, but you have to tell Zhuang Yan, and the old man understands that it is useless to tell you, just tell Zhuang Yan." ”

"You're all imaginary, forget it, I'll continue to read. Saying that, Xu Xiushi continued to read the book again.

The roommate continued: "Well, I said that your side is really as good as the book says, the scenery is so good?"

Xu Xiushi nodded while looking at it: "It's good, but what is written in the book is obviously decades ago, and it's not like this in Chadong now." ”

"The Dragon Boat Festival, the New Year's regatta is gone?" asked the roommate.

"No more. Xu Xiushi shook his head, "There used to be, I watched it when I was a child, but when I can go into the water, this thing will be gone, and there are fewer and fewer people in our place, not to mention the people who watch it, or the people who go into the water to compete, it is estimated that they can't make it up." ”

"Ah, no. The roommate was a little disappointed, and then asked, "What about River Street, what about the stilted building, there will be no more?" ”

"River Street is still there, and the stilted buildings have not been demolished, but they are not as beautiful as before, and there are no people living in them. I heard from the elders in the family that if the state hadn't demolished them, these things would have been demolished a long time ago. Xu Xiushi said.

"And where do you all live?"

"Just past the bridge I just mentioned, there is a residential area not far from the road, all of which were built later, and some small bungalows were built, and people lived there. Xu Xiushi explained.

Speaking of which, Xu Xiushi probably finished reading the first chapter of the new book, and after reading it, he muttered: "To be honest, although Zhuang Yan wrote this book in the past, I can really remember my hometown after reading it." Although it has changed a lot over the years, the taste is still there. ”

Hearing him say this, his roommate was happier than him, "Look, Zhuang Yan can't write an apocryphal story, otherwise how can it be so real, just like what he has experienced." I haven't been to Chadong, but I can also feel the mountains and rivers and cultural customs there. ”

Xu Xiushi didn't deny this statement as before, but sighed with emotion: "Yes, after reading this book, I suspect that Zhuang Yan is an authentic Chadong person, but I am an outsider." ”

In fact, Xu Xiushi is right, although Zhuang Yan has not been a person in Chadong, he is indeed a dog who has been in Chadong for a period of time, an authentic big yellow dog in Chadong.

……

The next morning, on Laohe Street in Chadong, a group of old men gathered together and pointed at a few people who were working in the river.

Wang Pingshui, the first old man they met in Chadong, was among them, and he smiled at He Bing next to him: "Captain, has the country allocated money or what, how do you think of repairing the house? Lao Liu's house is usually not inhabited, and it is repaired in vain." ”

He Bing said with a smile: "I didn't allocate any money, it was from the town, although no one lived in this house, I can't watch it fall, it's repaired, no one lives in it, and I feel better." ”

"Besides. He Bing continued, "Didn't I tell you a few days ago, our town is going to have a dragon boat race in a while, and these buildings can't be repaired if they are not repaired, don't let us row below when the time comes, and this building will be smashed down." ”

Wang Pingshui snorted, "What kind of boat racing, don't you win people, is it difficult to ask us old men to go into the water and row?"

Thank you [Aiyue] and [Night Rain] for your tips, thank you for your encouragement. I said before that it would be updated on Monday at the latest, and it was true that I lost my words, so I'm sorry. It's also that something happened in the family and was a little distracted, otherwise how can you say that the blessing is unparalleled, the disaster is not a single line, and it is said that the house leak coincides with the overnight rain?
