In the spring, Cheng Shaojie really planted rape in the contracted land in front of our building as he said, and I said with a slight annoyance: "You can't be so capricious if you have money, you can't plant rape just because I say that rape flowers are beautiful."

Cheng Shaojie said with a solemn face: "Of course, you can plant whatever you say, I said it, what you said is correct."

Seeing that he was serious, I glared at him and said, "You just toss around, those rich second-generation rich people play with cars, watches and women, you go to the good farming to play, you play very much."

Cheng Shaojie snorted and smiled: "Fun with you, you're not stupid, I'm not stupid, not to mention that the price of rapeseed is good now, and now the rapeseed is planted with large machinery, which are ready-made in our family." I plant rape mainly because of the less labor used to plant rape, less to worry about, save time and effort, although it is less than the production of corn to make less money, but it does not affect me to operate a brick factory or do something else, you say is not very cost-effective. ”

"That's pretty much it, I thought you were really listening to me?"

"I have to listen to my wife's words, but I still know how to plant the land, farming is not a coaxing thing, no matter what I say, I will not joke about it," Cheng Shaojie said seriously.

"This is the true character of a peasant, everyone should have a respectable thing in their hearts, not to be blasphemed, people have a persistence will have a weight, the land is what everyone steps on under their feet seems to be the lowest thing, but it is the thing that people rely on to survive, no matter what everyone has experienced in this world, they will eventually return to dust."

"I can't think about it that deeply, but I feel that I am living a very down-to-earth life now, as if I should have lived like this, I don't feel that anyone is nobler than me, and no one is inferior to myself, and I am very good like this".

In Linshui Village, although I have built a new building, I usually like to stay in the backyard, sit under the shady grape trellis with a book, and faintly hear the murmuring sound of the Yuxi River, and no matter how strong the sun blows, there is a trace of coolness in the wind.

Cheng Shaojie wore a straw hat and worked shirtless in the vegetable garden, I picked some vegetables from the vegetable field and took them to the kitchen to wash and cut them, and prepared to fry them when they all came back. Then I made a pot of tea and brought it to the table in the courtyard, and through the glass of the teapot, I saw that the tea was shining a light green, and the tea leaves floated gently and slowly sank. After looking at it for a while, I went to the flower pot in the courtyard and picked a few moli flowers and put them in the teapot.

The mother-in-law came out of the house and saw that Cheng Shaojie was still busy working in the field, so she said angrily: "His father and I are cleaning up in the field every day, and the grass has been pulled out and the ground has been flattened, what is he still doing there?" ”

I smiled and said, "You told him to tinker, this year he planted some new varieties of vegetables, and he is building a shelf for that "fungus" dish!" ”

"Oh, does that dish still need a shelf? How do you eat that dish? The mother-in-law asked.

I was stunned for a moment: "Cook the soup or stir-fry it, right?" I haven't done it either."

The mother-in-law pouted and smiled: "You guys make it yourself, I can't get it, I haven't seen the vegetable seeds you got back before." Oh, when you go back today, bring some of the newly harvested eggs back to your parents, the plum is already packed, don't forget to take them when you leave, and pick some fresh vegetables to take away."

I smiled and said, "Got it, what about my dad?" ”

"He went out in the morning and saw someone who had just caught fish from the river, and after buying the fish and sending it back, he didn't come back, so he probably went to the cultural room to play."

I said, "Go and see, the fish are all stewed, and when they come back, they will be ready to eat."

Mother-in-law said: "Your father is now more and more blessed, and now he even has to be called to eat" Saying that, people walked out, and said while walking: "The moon flowers in front of the door are very good, the yellow-red ones are also very fragrant, you pick a few petals and put them in the tea It is also very fragrant, I see that there is such a tea on TV."

I smiled and followed my mother-in-law to the gate, and when I saw my mother-in-law gone, I picked a few petals with bright red color and no fragrance in the moon flowers.

I washed the petals and put them in the teapot, then I heard the phone ring, I picked up the phone, when I saw the word "passerby" displayed on the screen, my heart suddenly beat violently, the hand holding the phone couldn't help but tremble slightly, I breathed deeply to calm down my mood and then pressed the connect button, I silently put the phone to my ear, and the other end of the phone was silent for a while before I heard his familiar and unfamiliar voice: "Still, is it you?" ”

The moment I heard his voice, tears welled up in my eyes, and I whispered softly with a sour nose, "It's me."

"How are you now?" His voice was still so soft, calm, and magnetic.

"I'm fine now, I'm making tea, and my husband is growing vegetables in the yard," I said as I looked at the back of Cheng Shaojie in the field.

"That's really good, still, the last thing I want to think about is that you're alone and uncared for and unaccompanied, sorry, still."

"Thank you, my current husband is very good to me, and we are doing well."

He was silent on the other end of the phone for a while and said: "Still, I have kept this phone number for you for so many years, because I am worried that you have been living alone, and you can't find me when you have something to look for me, and now I am really relieved that someone is by your side to take care of you." Still, I really love you, but I'm not qualified to say that, but I've always wanted to say it to you in my heart. I really love you, so you must live a happy life".

Tears welled up in my eyes, I took a deep breath, adjusted my voice and said softly: "I know, I really love you too, I was very happy when I had you, I really thank you for loving me and accompanying me, I will always remember, you take care".

I have kept his phone number for so many years, and I have never thought to call it no matter how painful and struggling I have been in my heart all these years, but it is a thread that has always hung on my heart, tugging at my heart.

I know that we will say goodbye to each other, and that our own peaceful life will never be seen again in our own world.

Cheng Shaojie came out of the vegetable field, I took a towel from the wire under the grape trellis and handed it to him, he took the towel and asked me, "Who is calling?" ”

I said, "It's a friend from a long time ago."

He sighed and said, "It's good that the unit will let you go back."

I laughed a little and said, "No."

He smiled and walked to the flower stand by the grape ditch, washed his face in the face plate on the table, he shook his head and arms quickly, the water was picked up and splashed in all directions, watching him move quickly and attentively, I felt very grateful that this man was present in my life at this moment. If it weren't for him, I would have been embarrassed to receive a call from Chen Jingde at this time, and I could no longer bear the heart-wrenching sadness of sitting alone on the carpet in front of the window of the Lido Home.

Cheng Shaojie wiped the water on his body, walked over and picked up the tea I poured for him, raised his head and drank it in one gulp, put down the cup and looked at me and said, "What's wrong?" Look at me in a weird way."

I laughed and said, "You drank tea like this in vain for half a day's effort."

He looked at the molly petals and moon petals in the teapot, smiled and said, "You pour it again, this time I'll drink it slowly."

I took his cup and slowly poured him tea, he looked at me and said, "Is the fish in the pot all right?" I smell the fragrance very much, your craftsmanship is really unmatched, when to eat? ”。

I closed the book on the table, smiled at him and said, "Thousands of tofu and thousands of fish, why are you in a hurry, wait for Mei Duo and them to come back and eat."

Cheng Shaojie looked up at the top of the grape trellis, and there was a thin light on his face, speckled: "It's really right that you want to stay in this old house, it's much more comfortable to sit here than to sit in the building."

I looked back at the house and said, "In winter, we will make a hot kang in the old house, and the family will sit around the kang and eat hot pot hot, and wait for Yu Xinhui and Li Qiutong to come over and sleep on the hot pit and chat."

"Okay," Cheng Shaojie replied casually.

"Why do you say everything I say?"

"Your requirements are not high, they are all very simple, and I will do it myself."

I laughed, when I told Xinhui that my requirements were not high, it was very simple, Xinhui said that "simple" and "casual" were the most difficult for people to do, and when it came to the person in front of me, "simple" was easy to do.

Seeing that I was laughing, Cheng Shaojie asked inexplicably: "What's so funny?" ”

"Nothing, just thinking of some of the things I said before, I'll help you when the time comes" I said with a smile.

With my chin in my hand on my hand, I looked out of the door with my eyes scattered and said absentmindedly, "Mom, Dad, when will they come back?" Meadow: They're back, aren't they? I seem to hear a car coming in front of the building."

Cheng Shaojie also listened intently for a while and said: "Maybe, still, you want to build a building but you don't like to live in it, why build it?" ”

"Happy to all of you! We have the ability to do this, so why don't we make everyone happy? ”。

"Are you happy, then?"

I looked back at him and smiled faintly and said, "I think it's pretty good."

Cheng Shaojie smiled slightly, he could feel that I was gradually recognizing him and integrating into his life, and the result that exceeded his expectations made him have a lot of confidence in himself, so he was more calm and confident than before to get along with me and the people around me.
