Chapter 16: Goddess Xia Lijuan
Time is as fast as flowing water, Lin Xiao has been almost two o'clock and one line these days, busy but fulfilling.
It was the weekend. And tonight, at seven o'clock in the evening, Lin Xiao got on the bus and set out on the way home.
The bus looks old, the paint on the surface of the bus has peeled off a lot, and in some places it has rusted and corroded, and the old diesel engine will be full of smoke as soon as it starts. But even so, Lin Xiao had no choice, because the car to the village was just one trip, leaving early and returning late, once a day, rain or shine.
There weren't even lights in the car, it was dark, and there was a strange smell that made people smell unpleasant. Fortunately, Lin Xiao found a place by the window and opened a three-finger-wide slit, and the cool and comfortable wind blew on his face door like this, which was much better than the pungent smell in the car.
Lin Xiao was closing her eyes all the way to recuperate, and she was really panicked, so she opened the car window a little wider and smoked a cigarette. Lin Xiao is not the only one who does this, and perhaps the people who ride this car are also used to it, unless there are some pregnant women or people who are disgusted with the smell of smoke to say something. However, more people think that the smell of smoke is at least much better than the strange smell in the car.
After about half an hour, the conductor began to call out some place names along the way, and some passengers began to get off the train one after another.
After that, the road was not so smooth, the bumps were terrible, and the car could not run fast. Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel that such a bad road, even if it was a good car, it might not be far from being scrapped in a few years.
After nearly an hour of such a bump, the conductor's deep shout sounded again: "Wuyuan Village has arrived!
The people in the car answered, and the car leaned against the side of the road and slowly stopped. The sound of the car door opening was extremely harsh, and after Lin Xiao got out of the car quickly, he found that there was another person besides himself who got off the car in Wuyuan Village.
It was almost nine o'clock, there were no street lights in the mountains, it was pitch black, and the road was not very easy to walk. Lin Xiaoding looked at the person walking in front of him, and vaguely felt like a woman. The woman also knew that it was difficult to walk in the dark, so she turned on the LED light on her mobile phone, but she just walked a few steps before she heard an exclamation, and the woman fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Lin Xiao turned on the bright flashlight and hurriedly walked over: "It's your first time coming to our village, right?"
The reason why Lin Xiao asked this is because everyone in the village knows that the car comes back too late, and it is dark in the mountains, so almost everyone will prepare a flashlight.
The woman hissed in pain, moaned softly, and eased for a moment before letting out a soft 'um'. Lin Xiao took a flashlight and saw that the woman's ankle was already swollen: "Your foot is broken, the road in this mountain is not easy to walk, you still dare to wear high heels?"
The woman felt aggrieved, and said with some shame: "I...... I didn't know that the roads in Wuyuan Village were so bad, this is the second time I've come, and the last time I came was when I was five years old......"
At this time, Lin Xiao intended to help the woman up, and inadvertently swept the flashlight, Lin Xiao couldn't help but be stunned: "Are you ...... Teacher Xia Lijuan ......"
Xia Lijuan also felt strange at this time, it was impossible for anyone in Wuyuan Village to know herself, but the person in front of her clearly called out his name. The woman's mind is very sensitive, she can't help but wonder if this person should be following her and plotting against her, thinking of this, Xia Lijuan subconsciously shuddered, raised her eyes to look at the dark and quiet environment around her, and said in a trembling voice: "You...... Who are you?"
Of course, Lin Xiao didn't know Xia Lijuan's thoughts, he was immersed in the surprise of being able to meet the goddess at this moment. After listening to Xia Lijuan's words, Lin Xiao raised the flashlight and shone it on her face and said, "Teacher Xia, it's me!"
Unexpectedly, after Xia Lijuan saw Lin Xiao's pale face, she screamed and pushed Lin Xiao suddenly: "Ahhhhhhh
Lin Xiao hurriedly put away the flashlight, but he ignored it in a hurry, it was indeed a little scary to shine the flashlight on his face like this. At this time, Lin Xiao picked up the mobile phone discarded by Xia Lijuan, and said according to her face: "Teacher Xia, don't be afraid, you see it's me!"
"I don't look, I don't look at ......" Xia Lijuan covered her face with her hands and shouted with all her might.
Lin Xiao felt funny, she couldn't imagine that Teacher Xia, who was serious and demanding on weekdays, also had such a little woman's side. Lin Xiao reached out and pulled Xia Lijuan's hand covering her face, and said, "Don't be afraid, it's me!"
Lin ...... Lin Xiao!" At this time, Xia Lijuan's hands covering her face still didn't intend to let go, but a slit appeared between her fingers, and she looked up cautiously.
"It's really you, Lin Xiao!, why are you here?" Without waiting for Lin Xiao to answer, Xia Lijuan sobbed and beat his chest with her small fists, complaining: "You really scared me to death just now, I hate it!"
Lin Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "Teacher Xia, come, I'll help you up." ”
Xia Lijuan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and suddenly felt that she seemed to be a little out of shape in front of her students, and her cheeks were hot for a while.
Xia Lijuan tried to stand up, but her injured foot hurt a little as long as she exerted force.
"Come on, I'll carry you. You have the flashlight!" Saying that, Lin Xiao stuffed the flashlight into Xia Lijuan's hand, bent over herself, and saw that Xia Lijuan was a little hesitant, and knew what she was worried about without thinking about it, Lin Xiao urged: "Come on, hurry up!" If you insist on going by yourself, I'm afraid it will be more serious, and you won't want to get out of bed in ten days and half a month!"
Hearing Lin Xiao say this, Xia Lijuan no longer hesitated, and gently lay on Lin Xiao's back on Lin Xiao's shoulders. Instantly feeling the softness and warmth of the pair of big meat balls, Lin Xiao didn't say a word and sent her two thighs up, got up and walked stride. Feeling Xia Lijuan's gentle breathing and the warmth of her delicate body, Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel her heart fluttering.
"Does your family live in Wuyuan Village?" Xia Lijuan asked softly in Lin Xiao's ear.
"Well, I grew up in Wuyuan Village since I was a child. By the way, Teacher Xia, why did you come to Wuyuan Village?" Lin Xiao asked curiously.
At this time, Lin Xiao's arms wrapped around her two thighs couldn't help but tighten, and the two of them were closer together. Xia Lijuan was a little embarrassed but didn't know how to speak, so she had to say casually: "I have relatives here, Wu Qingrong is my uncle, and Wu Qingguo is my second uncle." ”
Lin Xiao couldn't help but suddenly, she heard earlier that there was a girl under Wu Qingguo, named Wu Qinglian. But didn't their family claim to the outside that the third sister died outside?
"You're here to visit relatives, then Grandma Meng is your grandmother, but you haven't come much in so many years?" Lin Xiao still said more tactfully, he vaguely felt that there were some stories in it.
Xia Lijuan was silent when she heard this. Lin Xiao could feel Xia Lijuan's body trembling slightly, and a few drops of warmth fell on her neck.
"I ...... I'm not here to visit relatives. My mother was seriously ill and could not take care of herself. But he told me again and again that I must come to see my grandmother on her last journey!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao's heart was like thunder, and he was shocked, and his pace stopped: "What? You said that Grandma Meng is impossible!"
Lin Xiao thought of Grandma Meng's wrinkled face, but often smiling. Grandma Meng watched herself grow up and treated Lin Xiao like her own grandson. Lin Xiao always remembered the back of Grandma Meng often carrying a bamboo basket up the mountain to collect medicine, although she was old, she walked steadily. Although Grandma Meng is over seventy, this news really makes Lin Xiao feel too sudden.
It wasn't until Lin Xiao saw the lanterns swaying in the wind emitting white light in front of Grandma Meng's house, and the long white flags tied to the door beams, that Lin Xiao was convinced that what Xia Lijuan said was true.
"Okay, Lin Xiao, let me down, I'll go by myself!"
At this time, Lin Xiao put Xia Lijuan down: "Are you sure you can?"
Xia Lijuan ninja was in pain, and reluctantly smiled and said, "Yes! Thank you, Lin Xiao." It's getting late, so go home too. ”
Saying that, Xia Lijuan limped a few steps, Lin Xiao looked at her slightly trembling left foot, and her crumbling body, he knew that Xia Lijuan was pretending to be reckless and endured the pain. At this time, Lin Xiao sighed and stepped forward to hold Xia Lijuan's arm until she was sent to the door.
"Alright, you can go in by yourself. ”
