"Sister, what did you say about Ma Struggle?"

Looking at the back of Ma Struggle leaving, Zhang Shiyu asked softly. She has not been in contact with Sister Liu for a long time, but her feelings are not shallow, and the statement that Sister Liu is leaving is the second time she has heard it, and she knows some reasons.

Thirty is a hurdle for a woman, and some things seem to need to be faced after all.

She understands and understands.

"Take the wrong medicine, stimulate him, save yourself from bullying us every day. I'll get out of here, but not now, when he becomes the village chief. ”

"Can he be the village head?" said Zhang Shiyu, who hadn't heard the old village chief talking to Sister Liu.

Sister Liu smiled and said, "Who knows~"

……

After waiting at the door of Uncle Li's house for ten minutes, the two of them walked side by side to the bamboo house.

"Struggle, in another three or four days, Uncle's work will be done. ”

"Well, when the house is finished, the hunting festival will begin, and then let's continue digging the road. I have an immature idea, and I'll talk to my uncle about it later. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Isn't this road getting farther and farther to build, but I'm going to take advantage of the fact that it's not cold yet, and I'm going to set up a few tents to make do with it for a few nights, so that I can save hours of walking time and dig a lot more. ”

"Cheng, when the time comes, Uncle will help you get it, and you won't charge extra money, just count it in the digging soil. ”

"Then thank you Uncle first, I still want my aunt and Widow Zhao to cook, see how much money I can get, this road is open, I have a way to get more people to travel to our village, and I will make more money when the time comes." ”

"Okay, you haven't been outside, why are you still so good? Could it be that Dr. Liu told you?"

Looking at the horse who didn't speak and looked cheap, Uncle Li stopped and muttered in his mouth: "It's evil, climb the wall and climb out of the avenue to heaven......"

Watching the horses struggling far away, he quickened his pace and chased after him.

This village is not big or small, with more than 300 households, excluding those who go out to work, there are more than 200 people of all ages.

But there are no people like Ma Zhan who are still eating and waiting for death in the village at this age, Zhang Yijian, who will leave in a few days, is half counted, and the rest are young people who dropped out of school after finishing junior high school and went out to work and have not yet reached the age.

Because of the advantage of age, Ma Struggle became the child king of this group.

Recently, the horse struggle has changed a lot, resulting in the inability to play with a few people who are six or seven years apart in age. Today, it was a coincidence, and Ma Zhan, who had just walked out of the village, met several young people who didn't know where to play and came back with dirt.

"Golden Dragon, which cave have you been playing in again, I didn't see you when I went to your house in the morning. Ma Zhan took the initiative to say hello, threw a few cigarettes to his little playmate, and asked.

"Farewell, the old village chief said that there are tigers in the mountains, and we have been looking for several days but have not found them. The young man named Jin Long skillfully lit a cigarette, his head lightly tapped, and skillfully added, "Uncle Ma." ”

Because of their seniority, Ma Zhan is not much older than them, but they still have to call Uncle respectfully, just like Ma Zhan must call Uncle to some men in their thirties.

"You are not afraid of death, you dare to provoke the tiger calf who can't be killed, and I will tell your father to go back. Without waiting for Ma Zhan to speak, Uncle Li scolded harshly. I don't know if it's because he doesn't have a son, but he is very strict with the young people in the village.

"Old Uncle Li, what are you afraid of, aren't we coming back? ”

"Uncle, that group of wild boars has given birth to a lot of cubs, and we are going to dig a big pit in two days to see if we can get a few. Are you coming?"

Jin Long looked at Ma Struggle and asked a little sycophantly.

"Go to an earthworm, and when you go back, your dad will tell you to prepare well. Ma Zhan said angrily.

The horse who waved his hand was about to leave, and the bamboo house still had a lot of things waiting for him to do.

Seeing the horse struggling to leave, Jin Long hurriedly followed, and his actions caused the actions of several other younger youths.

"Uncle, what are you going to do?"

"I'll build a house with your Uncle Li, so don't follow me, go back and take a bath. Ma Zhan didn't look back, waved his hand and said lightly.

Jin Long obediently did not follow, after this year he will turn eighteen years old, no accident next year will follow his brother-in-law to go out to work, for the future marriage to save some wife.

The friendship with him seems to have been born in the gradual estrangement of Ma Struggle.

"Dog, remember not to talk nonsense when you go home, keep your mouth shut. The golden dragon who turned around looked at the little kid who couldn't hide his words and said.

"Uncle, don't worry. This time, I promise not to find out to my mother, I am working shirtless, and my clothes are still clean, they will not suspect it. ”

"Okay, I really got two or three wild boars, and after selling them, we will share them according to what we agreed. ”

At the gate of the village, several people dispersed after confessing again.

Ma Fen, who was full of thoughts about making money, followed Uncle Li to build a bamboo house, and learned a lot of precautions large and small, although he did not have the ability to do it alone, but he also knew what kind of materials to put where, where to go first, and where to reinforce.

Uncle Li was very satisfied with Ma Struggle in this state, and there were many more words in his mouth.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the two sat on the bamboo and smoked a rest.

Uncle Li hesitated slightly and said: "Struggle, your uncle's middle-aged age is not good, and the fat baby has not been able to grow a fruit with your aunt in the first few years since he left, and now it is even worse." He paused slightly and added: "Struggle, or I will accept you as my godson, I don't ask you to do anything, and when you get married in the future, you will take your daughter-in-law to have a meal at home during the New Year's holidays." ”

The sudden seriousness made Ma Zhan a little unable to turn around, thinking slightly, he smiled and said, "Okay, Uncle Li doesn't think I'm just messing around." ”

"So, yes?"

"Yes, but I'll have to tell the old man about it later. ”

"Yes, yes, I'll talk to your aunt in the evening...... No, go with your godmother to the old village chief's house. Uncle Li hurriedly said, he naturally would not fall into these rules if he abides by the rules.

"Okay, let's be together in the evening, I just have something to give him. ”

"Okay, okay, why don't you call the old man to the house for a meal in the evening. Uncle Li proposed.

"Either tomorrow, go to the sanitation tonight, or you'll be buried again." Ma Zhan thought for a while and said.

"It's okay, let's go back and set up a few tables of wine on a good day. Your godmother must be so happy that she's been complaining about me for days. ”

Li Chunsheng's face was full of joy, and a stone in his heart fell to the ground.

It was his mother-in-law who thought of recognizing Ma and striving to be his godson, and I don't know if it was because she saw his progress, or because she had been a neighbor for so many years, and she had already had plans in this regard.

……

At night, Ma Zhan worked in Li Chunsheng's house for a long time. When it was time to eat, I trotted to the health center.

Thinking that Sister Liu, who had the idea of leaving, instinctively became more obedient. If he doesn't eat the stewed pheasant, the other one will definitely be angry.

"Sister, it's so fragrant!"

Entering the house, Ma Zhan sniffed and smiled happily.
