Chapter 1: A Beautiful Woman Knocks on the Door
The difference between the countryside and the city is that just after eight o'clock in the evening, every household in the village closes its doors and goes to bed. Cottages are scattered in the woods on the hillside, lonely and deserted, and the whole mountain village is as quiet as a paradise.
In a small courtyard in the village, Lei Xiaobo sits at a desk in the east wing, browsing the world of flowers outside the mountain village on his laptop computer, while keeping in touch with the outside world on his mobile phone WeChat.
"Yanyan, have you had dinner?" he chatted with his girlfriend in the city for a while. "Good evening, everyone. "Say hello in the group for a while. "Thank you, boss!" grabbed a small red envelope, and he happily immediately sent a thank you picture.
The landlord and his wife closed the courtyard door and went into the main house to rest. The courtyard was eerily quiet, so quiet that the sound of rats crawling in the dark could be heard clearly.
Suddenly, there was a sharp knock on the door of the courtyard. Lei Xiaobo immediately walked out: "Coming, coming, who?"
A girl's crisp and soft voice came from outside the door: "I, open the door quickly." ”
Lei Xiaobo pulled the latch from the inside, and the door was pushed open. A tall and beautiful girl walked in outside, and when she saw him, she was stunned at first, then looked him up and down, and asked suspiciously: "Who are you?" She saw that Lei Xiaobo's face was immature, dressed plainly, and she was rustic, so she frowned slightly, and a layer of disdain appeared on her face.
Lei Xiaobo's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart: "Wow, it's so beautiful!" How can there be such a beautiful girl in this small mountain village? I haven't found out in the past two days, is she the landlord's daughter? He heard the landlady say that they have a daughter who is also a college student who works in the city and rarely goes home.
"I, I am. Lei Xiaobo has no fear of beauty, but in the face of this beautiful girl who seems to have fallen from the sky, he was so panicked that he didn't know how to answer her. He was stunned for a moment, then turned his mouth and asked, "Are you?"
The girl looked like an innocent college student. She has a beautiful face, a tall figure, fair skin, a straight nose, thin eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and a good temperament. She wore a stylish summer dress with black and white stripes, a short-sleeved shirt on the upper body that outlined her charming curves just right, and straight-leg pants on the lower body made her slim figure look particularly sexy. Her eyes sparkled in the night, and her two white arms shone with elastic sheen.
But she looked melancholy, and seemed to be a little uneasy and anxious. Listening to Lei Xiaobo's rhetorical question, she pulled her pretty face and said a little unhappily: "You haven't answered me yet, but you asked me." ”
Lei Xiaobo was about to answer her when the door to the main house opened. "Who?" the landlady came out and said in surprise, "Ah, it's Xiaoshan, why are you back?"
Xiao Shan turned around and walked towards the main house, she looked anxious and said, "Mom, I have something urgent." He glanced back at Lei Xiaobo and asked softly, "Who is he?"
Her mother said, "He's a new college student village official. Secretary Guo said that the conditions of our family are better, and temporarily arranged for him to stay at our house, and the village will pay 20 yuan a day for room and board. ”
"College student village official?" Xiao Shan looked back at Lei Xiaobo suspiciously.
Lei Xiaobo, who was standing in the lamp frame on the courtyard, saw that the disdain on Xiaoshan's face had faded, so he confidently walked towards the main house, wanting to chat with her. But Xiao Shan only glanced at him hurriedly, then turned around and walked into the hall, and with a "bang", he shut him out of the door a little unceremoniously.
Looking at the mother-daughter figure who disappeared into the door like sisters, Lei Xiaobo felt a trace of inexplicable melancholy in his heart, and at the same time he had an urge to step forward and knock on the door. In a small mountain village, it is so rare to see such a beautiful girl, and she is also a college student, so he is a little anxious.
After Xiaoshan entered the house, she was chattering with her parents in the east room, and the atmosphere seemed to be a little tense. After talking for a while, she wiped away her tears.
Did she fall out of love? Or was she bullied by anyone? Lei Xiaobo didn't dare to disturb them anymore, turned around and walked into his east wing, as if he had lost something, and his heart became restless.
It's still early, but Lei Xiaobo doesn't have the heart to go online. I don't go to bed until after twelve o'clock in college, and I don't go to bed until eight o'clock here. The contrast was a bit big, and he was a little unaccustomed to it. But here they all get up early in the morning, and at five o'clock, the villagers all get up. In order to adapt to this habit, he had to force himself to go to bed early and get up early.
The summer nights were a little sweltering, and the stars in the sky were blinking slyly.
Lei Xiaobo went to close the door of the courtyard, entered the house and bolted the door, closed the curtains, turned on the electric fan on the bedside table, stripped naked and went to bed. He has the habit of sleeping naked and feels comfortable and healthy to sleep naked. In summer, lying on the mat is indescribably cool, and in winter, curled up in the quilt, it is even smoother and warmer.
Two days ago, after a day of visiting the village, he was so tired that he fell asleep with his head on his pillow. Tonight was different, he couldn't sleep in bed. Although his legs and feet were so sore that he was so tired that he wanted to moan, his mind was full of the landlord's daughter he had just met, except for his girlfriend and the work in the village.
He was extremely excited to release the pressure of youth.
The next morning, Lei Xiaobo was awakened by the sound of the door opening and closing. He took out the phone next to his pillow and saw that it was almost six o'clock, so he sat up. He sat on the bed and looked at the mobile phone WeChat for a while, then got out of bed with his clothes on, opened the door and went to the faucet in the cooking room to wash. After washing, he prepared to go out to visit the last two groups of villagers in the village.
Lei Xiaobo closed the door of the east wing, walked into the courtyard, and subconsciously glanced at the main house. The door to the hall was open, and he walked over curiously.
The main house is a three-room cement whitewashed tile house, the middle is a hall house for dinner and guests, the east house is the room where Xiaoshan's parents live, and the west house should be Xiaoshan's boudoir. There are wings on the east and west sides of the courtyard, and the north side of the east wing is a stove house for cooking, and the south side is usually empty, so it is lent to him to live. The west wing has a toilet on the north side, and a sheep shed and chicken coop on the south side. His family has two sheep and four chickens. The brick-lined walls, the cement floors, the painted wooden doors and windows, the simple decoration of the home, and the modern appliances and furniture all make the landlord's home look clean and solid, and it is one of the richest families in the village.
Xiaoshan's father is the former village party secretary, surnamed Lin. Lei Xiaobo walked up the steps, gently pushed open the door of the hall, put his head in, and shouted softly: "Secretary Lin." ”
