Volume 2: The Tiger Enters the Deep Forest Chapter 17: Old Friends
Early the next morning, Wu Qingli carried Li Xianxian, Li Mozhan and his son, and Wu Dingyuan drove Li Mobei and Li Mohe to Fuliu Village.
The co-pilot's Li Xianzhang was very excited, excited, and even a little nervous, and Li Mozhan stayed in the back seat alone and closed his eyes to recuperate. Wu Qingli smiled and said to Li Xianxian: "Uncle Li, thank you"
Li Xianzhang looked at Wu Qingqian and asked, "Thank you for what?" Li Mozhan in the back seat also opened his eyes and listened with interest.
Wu Qingli smiled very sincerely, and said seriously: "My master has been in the village for decades, either with a cold face or let me practice with my brother, no one knows what he wants." But this time you said you were coming, and he was really happy."
Li Mozhan in the back seat handed Li Xianzhang and Wu Qingli a cigarette and said, "Xiao Qi, I believe that you and your brother Uncle Chen have always been very happy."
Bumpy all the way, the car stopped at the entrance of Fuliu Village, Chen Shuo, who was dressed in a brand-new Zhongshan suit, and Wu Laosi, who was smiling, stood at the entrance of the village, and Li Xianzhang, who got off the station, looked at Chen Shuo, with mixed feelings for a while, his eyes were slightly red, and he looked at the eldest brother who was roaring the world back then, and his voice trembled slightly: "Brother Chen."
Chen Shuo on the opposite side also had mixed feelings, looking at his brother who had not seen him for decades, he took a few steps forward and walked to the opposite side of Li Xianzhang and said: "Ah Zhang", and then the two hugged each other heavily, and after a long time, the two separated, both wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes and looked at each other and smiled.
The Wu Dingyuan brothers were designated to go up the mountain to hunt game, and the old man Chen said that the animals after the autumn were fatter, and he wanted to give his brother Li a taste, and the two brothers took simple equipment to the hunting area they frequented, and one went to fish and the other looked for prey nearby.
The four members of the Li family stayed in the house to chat with the old man Chen, the two old men sighed, talking mostly about some old people, the old people who lived in the mountains and did not ask about the world, were constantly impacted by the people and things hidden in the depths of the old man's dusty heart, the old man's eyes were moist several times, but he still did not express any opinions on the past, just listened quietly, and understood the concerns that could not go back.
After the group ate a pure peasant dish, they left the wine table to the two old men, and the three brothers of the Li family returned to the courtyard of the Chen family after visiting the village with Wu Qingcalf and the two of them, and the three brothers were arranged to rest in another room, and at the same time it was convenient to take care of the two old people.
————————
Wu Qingli and Wu Dingyuan walked to the school in the east of the village, the two climbed on the wall and sat down, watching the children inside learn to read, the man who replaced Li Muxi did not show any unaccustomed to the poor mountains and bad waters, and soon made the children like themselves, and what work was done in the village, and slowly received the kindness of all the villagers, and Li Muxi was different in that he behaved more like a person in the village.
After the man who was lecturing found Wu Qingli and the two, he just smiled slightly and continued to lecture, after Li Muxi returned to the city, the most unfamiliar with Zhou Zicheng in the entire Fuliu Village belonged to their brothers, Wu Qingli looked at the thoughtful Wu Dingyuan and asked, "Are you in touch?"
"No," Wu Dingyuan replied with a shake of his head.
"Miss her?"
"It's your business"
Wu Qingli muttered that his kindness was not reciprocated, took out his mobile phone and pressed a few numbers to dial out, stared at it for a while, Wu Qingli chatted seriously, Wu Dingyuan on the side thought that Wu Qingli was talking to Liu Fu, but after a while, he heard Wu Qingli say with emotion: "You are okay", and then pressed the speakerphone
"I'm fine, how are you?"
"I'm not bad"
"You... You.. How's it going?"
Wu Dingyuan, who was already a little uncontrollable on the side, said in a slightly trembling voice: "I'm fine, I miss you very much"
Wu Qingli jumped off the wall and walked to Zhou Zicheng, who had assigned homework to the children and came out to smoke, Zhou Zicheng had almost smoked a cigarette, and was about to go back to the classroom, when he saw Wu Qingli standing in place after walking by.
Zhou Zicheng is a person who is climbing up like Wu Qingli, the same background, the same effort, but the direction he chooses is different, Zhou Zicheng doesn't know whether the two most promising brothers in this village have prejudices against themselves or are wary of themselves, they have never dealt with each other, and now they are even a little nervous when they meet at first glance.
Wu Qingli took out a cigarette as he walked, and when he walked up to Zhou Zicheng, he happened to hand over a cigarette and asked with a smile, "Another one?"
Zhou Zicheng smiled lightly, but as a result, Wu Qingli's cigarette, the two of them did not pretend to prevaricate, they each took out the fire and lit the cigarette, looked at each other and smiled, and smoked against the wall.
"Not going out?" asked Zhou Zi like a friend for many years.
"Mmmm, I'm going to see if I can make money in Taiyuan."
"Uh-huh, I heard from the people in the village that you both are doing well"
"It's just a toss"
"It's not a toss"
Zhou Zicheng said this naturally, and even felt a little emotional, Wu Qingli glanced at the man who began to squat on the ground and smoke, and also squatted down and said, "Teacher Zhou, thank you for your hard work"
Zhou Zicheng smiled and said: "It's not bitter at all, I'm from Hubei, and I grew up in the mountains, you may not believe it, our side is more bitter than here."
Wu Qingli patted Zhou Zicheng on the shoulder and said, "I still have to have fun in the bitterness, haha"
A cigarette ran out, Zhou Zicheng walked into the classroom to continue the class, Wu Qingli walked to the wall and looked at Wu Dingyuan, who was still talking, shook his head and walked towards the master's house, and when he entered the courtyard gate, he saw Li Mozhan was sparring with three taciturn men, one dozen three, Li Mobei Li Mohe Zheng Yiren sat on a small bench and watched, and the two old men on the kang could be seen in this window still chatting, and they didn't want the initial memories to be full of embarrassment and helplessness, and now they have more points to see through the world and reunite with old friends.
What is surprising is that Li Mozhan, who has a very high combat power, is being pressed and beaten by three people, the three of them are skillful in cooperation, and the offense and defense are orderly, it can be seen that the three people are fighting in the collection, otherwise Li Mozhan may have been defeated now, and after about three minutes, the four of them stopped moving, Li Mozhan hugged his fists and smiled at the three and said: "Understand, admire, admire"
Wu Qingli found that the three brothers of the Li family looked at him, Wu Qingli suddenly felt helpless, these three brothers seemed to be very interested in comparing martial arts and watching others compete in martial arts, Wu Qingli smiled awkwardly and was about to turn around and slip away, Li Mozhan behind him smiled and said, "Xiao Qi, you can also try it"
Wu Qingli shook his head and said with a smile: "No, I don't fight a battle that I am not sure of, if I lose, won't I lose the number one in Fuliu Village for so many years."
