Liu Village, Hedong, a small mountain village that cannot be found on the map of China at all. It is close to the mountains on both sides and the river on the west, because most of the dozens of families in the village are surnamed Liu, from which the name comes from.

The mountain is not a high mountain, the altitude is only four or five hundred meters, the river is not a big river, it is formed by the convergence of streams in the mountain, the water surface is narrow in most places, usually two or three zhang wide, only at the deep pool of the river dam in the west of Liu Village in the east of the river, the water surface is slightly wide, there is an area of about 100 acres.

This deep pool has not been formed for many years, and it is the product of water conservancy construction in the sixties and seventies. It is said that at that time, the dam was built to facilitate irrigation, and a small power station was to be built. Later, experts inspected and said that the water flow was too small to build a power station.

As a result, the dam became a half-pull project, which has been abandoned there, and has become a good place for people in Liu Village, Hedong to wash clothes and take a bath in summer.

Liu Village in Hedong is not large, with dozens of families and a population of more than 300. This was originally an ordinary small village, but since last year (2006) the county seat and the urban area were opened to the expressway, Hedong Liu Village has unconsciously become much more lively than before.

Many city dwellers drove to fish, climb mountains, and buy some agricultural and sideline products in the village to take home to eat. There are also many retired elderly people who have taken a fancy to the natural and simple environment of Liu Village in Hedong and paid money to rent a house in the village.

This kind of fresh change brought by the outside world has made the villagers who have guarded the land for half their lives a little dizzy and at a loss.

However, those young people who work outside the home all the year round are different, they have more brains than the older generation of parents, and a few brave ones immediately quit their jobs and returned to the village, renovated their houses, opened hotels and farmhouses, and never thought that the business would be good.

On Saturdays and Sundays, cars can always be seen parked on the riverside embankment. Many city dwellers wore sun hats, sat on small pony ties, and fished in the river with fishing rods in hand.

Of course, there are also some city people who love mountain climbing and photography, and they walk around the village, holding up their mobile phone cameras at any time to take pictures.

In this regard, the people in the village are already a little surprised.

At this time, a good-looking girl with eyes, sportswear, and a digital camera was walking slowly on the dirt road in the village, and from time to time she raised the camera to click a photo.

Her name is Lin Xiaotong, she is a junior college student, she is about to graduate, and she is fine at school on Sundays, so she comes to Liu Village in Hedong with a few old friends.

She has lived in the city since she was a child, and her parents are working-class people, and they rarely take her on trips. Growing so big, Lin Xiaotong is the first time to come to the mountain village to play. There are small bridges and flowing waters, and there are more dead vines and old trees...... Wild duck. At first, Lin Xiaotong was a little dazzled, everything he touched was fresh, look here, touch there, and be extremely curious.

After taking a few photos of a group of ducks in the pond, Lin Xiaotong asked the guide next to him: "Liu Huiqin, do you still have eggs at home, I plan to go back to the city in the afternoon and want to bring a box back." ”

Speaking of the guide, in fact, she stayed at someone's house for the past two days, and when she came and went, the two of them got acquainted, so they made an appointment to hang out in the village.

"No, just now my mother asked me to go to the chicken coop to collect it, saying that it was prepared for the guests at noon. There are a lot of people coming these days, and it is estimated that other families are enough to choke, but there is one family, and there must be eggs. ”

"Which one?" Seeing her affirmative look, Lin Xiaotong asked curiously.

"Of course it's a lazy brother's house, there must be one in his chicken coop. I tell you, Brother Lazy is definitely the first lazy man in our village, and even my uncle said that it is difficult for us to find such a person in Hedong Liu for hundreds of years,......" The little girl replied with a chatter.

"How lazy is a lazy person who is hard to find in a hundred years?" Lin Xiaotong asked curiously.

"He is twenty-three years old, a good laborer, he never thought about earning money to build a house, nor did he want to marry a daughter-in-law, my father introduced him to a girl the year before last, and originally said that he would meet him on the street the next day, who knew that my father did not find him when he arrived. My dad came back in a huff and found that he was still sleeping at home and asked him why he didn't go. He said that it was raining and he was too lazy to go. What do you think this person is so lazy?"

"I don't even want to go on a blind date, I'm too lazy enough" Lin Xiaotong pursed his lips and smiled.

Seeing that the other party was interested, Liu Huiqin talked about a few more things: "The team gave him six acres of land, but he only planted one acre. The rest are too lazy to plant, and all are rented to others.

The only condition for renting his family's land is to help him plant his own acre of land.

This man, from sowing to reaping, basically does not stretch out his hand.

The young people of our village asked him to go to the south to work, but he was too far away. The villagers organized a construction team to build houses in several nearby villages, and asked him to help with the work, thirty yuan a day, he was tired...... Just such a lazy man, idle at home all day. ”

"Then his parents are not in a hurry?" After listening to the other party's description, Lin Xiaotong automatically sketched a very lazy man in his mind.

"His family is gone, and if someone took care of it, it wouldn't be like this. Other people preach, but it is not useful at all, and he verbally promises that it is good, but he does not do it. ”

"If he doesn't have a family, who will feed him?" Lin Xiaotong became curious again.

"Oh......" Liu Huiqin said happily, and suddenly became depressed again, "Who knows what kind of **** luck this guy has paid, he actually trained a good dog, and he can catch a rabbit and pheasant from the mountains every once in a while and sell it for money, otherwise, he would have starved to death......"

As he spoke, Liu Huiqin pointed to the big tiled houses hidden in the green shade not far from the east end of the village and said: "That's his house, next to the Land Temple, his father used to watch the temple, and now he is watching,"

Fifty meters away, three or two minutes to the door.

When he got closer, Lin Xiaotong found that this house was a little different from what he imagined. First of all, the yard is very large, and the whole yard is fenced with thorns. It is the peak season for the thorn blossoms, and countless bees are buzzing and flying among the flowers, giving people a very lively feeling.

Through the fence, a tall tree stood in the courtyard, with pink flowers sparsely pulling apart from the top.

"It's ...... Peach tree?!" Lin Xiaotong pointed to the big tree and exclaimed. Lin Xiaotong has seen peach trees in the orchard, and the largest is only three or four meters high. It's the first time she's seen it like this.

"Well, it's a peach tree, people are lazy, and the tree is lazy, this peach tree looks quite tall, and the peaches are bitter and not delicious. Liu Huiqin replied.

"You little girl, you must be betraying me behind my back. A hearty laugh came from the courtyard.

Hearing the voice, Lin Xiaotong found two people sitting under the peach tree through the gap in the fence, who seemed to be playing chess.

"Why, am I wrong, lazy brother!" Liu Huiqin replied loudly. Then she explained to Lin Xiaotong: "It's okay, in addition to being surprisingly lazy, Brother Lazy also has the advantage of having a good temper." Let's go inside."

Waiting in the courtyard, Lin Xiaotong carefully looked at the two people in the courtyard. One has gray hair and glasses, and judging by his dress and temperament, he should be from the city.

Another young man should be the lazy man in Liu Huijuan's mouth, this person is tall, with a small head, wearing a stand-up collar tunic, looking neat...... It's completely different from what I imagined before.

"Why, do you think that my appearance is not the same as the little girl's description?" the young man asked with a smile as if he understood her thoughts.

"Well, you are indeed very different from the lazy man I imagined," Lin Xiaotong nodded and replied.

"What do you imagine a lazy man to look like?" the old man next to him also interjected with a chuckle.

"Like on TV, the clothes are greasy and dirty, unkempt, and I haven't showered for months"

"What you say is not lazy, it's sloppy. I'm lazy, I just don't want to do something. Hello, my name is Liu Daodao, nicknamed Lazy," the young man introduced seriously.

"Brother Lazy, who is interested in listening to your nonsense, have you collected your eggs?" asked Liu Huiqin impatiently.

"Yes, if you want it, you will take it yourself," Liu Daode finished speaking, and moved a chess piece again.

"Let's go, collect the eggs. Liu Huiqin took Lin Xiaotong's hand and went straight to the chicken coop in the backyard.

When she entered the backyard, she found that the yard was really large, three or four hundred square meters, all of which were fenced with thorn fences. There were more than 30 firewood chickens in the backyard, and when they saw the visitors, they just screamed twice, and continued to look down in the grass to eat.

It was the first time for Lin Xiaotong to go to the chicken coop to collect eggs by herself, and she was almost caught by the hen at first, which made her scream.

But such things are full of novelty for her.

The two of them cleaned up the eggs in the chicken coop, and then counted them, and there were more than seventy.

Liu Huiqin asked Lin Xiaotong how many eggs she needed, then picked them up and put them in the basket and covered them with wheat straw. She didn't keep the remaining eggs for Liu Daodao, but put them in another basket, planning to carry them back by herself.

"How much does this egg cost 1?"

"Three cents seven one, 40 fourteen yuan eight, you give 14 yuan. Liu Huiqin calculated the accounts neatly.

"So much less, how can it work" Lin Xiaotong shook his head again and again, and whispered: "I have change"

"That's not necessary, a few cents less, the lazy brother doesn't care. Liu Huiqin suddenly shouted to the front: "Brother Lazy, 40 fourteen yuan eight, give you 14 yuan." ”

"Okay, put the money on the table in the house, and remember to send it over in two days after the bamboo basket is finished, I am too lazy to pick it up. Liu Daode replied without raising his head.

"I'll just say okay, let's go" Liu Huiqin took the money, walked to the front yard and put it on the table, and then explained: "My family also got more than 30, and I will give you money when I send bamboo baskets." ”

"Go slowly, don't send" Liu Daode waved his hand, and didn't look at the two of them again at all.

"He didn't even count the eggs, what a lazy ...... No, weirdos. Lin Xiaotong was completely speechless.

Before the two of them walked out of the door, they saw a person running over panting, and Lao Yuan shouted loudly: "Lazy brother, lazy brother, come with me, Xiaohao and Daoyi went up the mountain to throw a hornet's nest, and their whole body was swollen, you hurry up and follow me to take a look." ”

"These two bear children will not be worry-free. After Liu Daode listened, he threw the chess pieces in a hurry, and flew back to the house, and when he came out again, he already had an extra cloth in his hand.

Then he shouted to a few people in the courtyard, "I'll go first,"

After speaking, the whole person had disappeared into the courtyard, and he was dozens of meters away in the blink of an eye.

"This person is really fast," Lin Xiaotong exclaimed, and then asked curiously: "He still knows medical skills?"

"Well, I learned from his grandfather and knew how to do acupuncture, but he was too lazy to do anything. Let's go back and have a look. ”

"What kind of person is this?" Lin Xiaotong was the first time he had encountered such a strange person, and he didn't know how to define it. xh:.74.240.212
