Qi Yun and Hong Jian sat side by side on the dirt slope in the mountain, Hong Jian took off his wide jacket and covered the two of them like a tent. The night road in the mountains is dangerous, not to mention that he has been busy looking for Qi Yun, and he actually didn't bother to remember the way, so he raised a fire at his feet, sat down and waited for dawn before going back, even if it was the best way in the current situation.

The night is deep, the night sky of the countryside in winter is clear as washing, although there is no moon, but the sky is full of stars, and there are two or three white lotus petal-like clouds in between, which is beautiful.

Qi Yun sat there, staring blankly in the direction of the village, his eyes full of confusion.

"Listen to me, don't lose your temper when you go back," Hong Jian reassured her, "I brought you sausages and bacon, local pork poured by a colleague of ours in Sichuan." ”

"Wow!" Qi Yun swallowed his saliva and screamed. can't blame her for being unproductive, since she came to this mountain village, she didn't know the taste of meat for a long time.

"I really want to go back to the village as soon as possible!"

Hearing Qi Yun's heartfelt hope, Hong Jian couldn't help but laugh angrily.

As if they heard Qi Yun's call, they soon found that there was a noisy sound and light coming from the opposite side of the darkness, and when they looked closely, it was an irregular dragon composed of firelight. The voices of people were boiling, and the shouts of adults and children were endless.

"I seem to hear Benwa's voice," Qi Yun turned his head and looked at Hong Jian inexplicably: "Is this ......?" ”

Hong Jian immediately guessed the answer in his heart. Glancing at Qi Yun, "Who else are you asking?" Your eldest lady overturned the podium and ran away, and there was a disturbance in the village. Look at this situation, there must be a crowd looking for you. ”

Qi Yun stood up, stammering, anxious and helpless. Seeing her self-blame, Hong Jian didn't feel sorry for her anymore, "Okay." If you know your mistakes, you can change them quickly, and it's not too late to be a new person in the future. ”

Qi Yun wiped the sweat on his face with the back of his hand, still struggling:

"This ...... How good is that? It's a big disaster......"

The team carrying the torch to find the person got closer and closer, and I saw Benwa's small figure hurriedly walking at the front of the team, leaving the people behind behind.

The child staggered forward, looked up coldly, and saw Qi Yun and Hong Jian on the side of the road, the whole person was completely stunned, and adjusted the expression on his face for a long time, a small face could be considered to return to normal, and it was the same casual and empty-eyed expression as in the usual class.

Qi Yun snickered in his heart, but deliberately pretended not to see it, smiled and raised his hand to say hello to Benwa,

"Benwa, thank you for your hard work!"

Benwa ignored her, turned around and squeezed back into the team, and said to the others, "Teacher Qi is fine, the principal is in a hurry." After speaking, he lowered his head stiffly, refusing to look up at Qi Yun again.

However, Chunsheng, who had red circles in his eyes, suddenly rushed out of the team and grabbed Qi Yun's arm. A boy who looked about to be about the same height as Qi Yun choked up as he spoke.

"Teacher Qi, Teacher Qi," Chunsheng was so anxious that he couldn't speak clearly, "My mother is a rural woman, she can't read a single big word, she can't speak, don't be weird with her...... Teacher Qi, don't go! ”

Qi Yun patted Chunsheng's shoulder with relief: "Who said I was leaving?" ”

The headmaster rushed to Qi Yun from the back of the line with a blank and panting expression, and said to everyone:

"Teacher Qi didn't say to leave, it was because I was too careful, and I was angry."

Qi Yun bowed deeply to the principal, moved and apologetic.

"Headmaster, I'm willful for a while, and I want you to organize everyone to come to me...... I'm sorry! I'm causing you a problem. ”

The principal waved his hand repeatedly. Chunsheng still held Qi Yun's hand and asked in disbelief:

"Teacher Qi, are you really not leaving?"

Qi Yun nodded and smiled brightly, revealing a mouthful of white teeth:

"I've caused trouble to everyone today and punished me for a treat! Everyone came to my place to eat today, my brother brought sausage and bacon, and I came to bury the pot and cook it myself, and treat everyone! If you don't come, you don't treat me as a family! ”

Qi Yun used cheerfulness to cover up his weakness, but it still had a good effect, the adults were still reserved, and as soon as the children heard that there was meat to eat, they immediately burst out into an uncontrollable shout of excitement. Qi Yun waved his hands and followed the children to lead the way down the mountain, although it was a night road, everyone did not feel too tired, but felt that they would return to the village after a while.

Qi Yun borrowed a pot from the village chief's house, and Hong Jian and the two used the big stove in the student dormitory to make bacon rice. The students each went home and brought some green vegetables sporadically, washed and peeled them and gave them to Qi Yun. Hong Jian lit a fire in the earthen stove, and Qi Yun poked her head to see that the firelight reflected her little face with an excited expression red.

Hong Jian added firewood to the fire, "It turns out that you didn't ask me: Can you change something?" How, do you feel that change now? ”

Qi Yun stuck out his tongue with a smile, "I did ask that, but now I have the answer myself: what can be changed, I wait for them to change; If you can't change it, even if I pull them hard, I have to drag them to change! Brother Jian, have you forgotten that when you were a child, you used playing cards to tell my fortune? said that I was born with a lone star, and my personality was so stubborn that I couldn't pull back nine cows......"

Qi Yun was busy talking casually, but Hong Jian's face changed when he heard it. He couldn't remember when he used playing cards to tell Qi Yun's fortune when he was a child, it was estimated that he was pestered by the young her, and he said a few nonsense, but he didn't expect Qi Yun to remember it all the time. But that lone star is fateful, no matter how you listen to it, it doesn't seem like a good word, and you can't talk nonsense.

Hong Jian didn't feel a little blushing, and hurriedly said: "It must be that you lost your temper when you were a child, and you were angry with me, and I lied to you to say this, don't take it seriously." ”

Qi Yun didn't think so at all, "But one thing you are right, I have nothing else, even if I am stubborn, I can't pull back the nine cows." Didn't Master Confucius say it all, knowing that it was impossible to do it. What's more, it's me, Sailor Moon, who was born in a new society and grew up under the red flag! ”

Hong Jian also stopped mentioning the matter. The two of them worked together to simmer the bacon rice, opened the pot and looked, the rice grains were white and bright, shiny and oily, mixed with red bacon and green vegetables, the aroma was tangy, and it made people's appetite move. Qi Yun was excitedly like a monkey who had only drunk a big pot of coffee, regardless of the fact that the village was running around in the middle of the night, beckoning people to come and taste her craft. After a while, not only the people who went into the mountain to find Qi Yun today, but also Qi Yun's students and their parents, as well as the village chief and principal, couldn't resist Qi Yun's kind invitation.

Everyone started to roll up and remove the covers on the Chase in the student dormitory, revealing a long bed board as a table, and then jumped on the bed or sat on the floor, crowded to the brim. Several parents brought home-made side dishes, although there are no rare things, but there are also seven plates and eight bowls, which are colorful and beautiful. The village chief brought a few catties of home-brewed sorghum wine, and the aroma was fragrant as soon as the altar was opened. A male parent stood up and poured wine for the village chief and the principal, and the third glass of wine was poured into the small wine cup in front of Qi Yun.

After the parents poured wine for all the adults present, and the children poured a glass of water in front of each of them, Qi Yun was the first to jump up, holding the wine glass high in both hands, and clamoring to respect the village chief and principal, and thank them for taking care of her all the time.

The principal hurriedly humbled himself, and the village chief also said, "Teacher Qi, we know in our hearts that leaving us in this village school is treating you poorly." However, we actually treat you as if you were our own daughter, as long as you are willing to stay with us and not leave, I will take off this old face and put it on this table to say a word, and the doll will be forgotten, and if anyone in this village will find you awkward in the future, I will be the first to spare him! ”

Qi Yun smiled and said, "The village chief should stop saying these words, I was also wrong in the past, and I don't blame everyone." The people in the village are so good, you and the principal love me so much, and the big guys love me so much, where else can I go? ”

Qi Yun raised his glass above his head and declared loudly: "Mountain vegetables and wild vegetables, vegetables and meat are fragrant!" This is my home! With that, he brought the cup to his lips. Hong Jian knew that Qi Yun didn't know how to drink, so he made a gesture, meaning that she just had to take a sip of the meaning, but he didn't expect Qi Yun to be a solid-eyed child, and he actually tilted his neck and dried it in one go, Hong Jian saw that she was choking on alcohol, and immediately her face was full of peach blossoms, and she couldn't help but be angry and funny, and shook her head again and again.

After three rounds of drinking, several boys played a hand shadow play with the help of soybean oil lights, which was very interesting, Qi Yun laughed and was amazed. Yuqin also sang a mountain song with a red face, and Qi Yun praised her with a big tongue, "Yuqin, I didn't expect you to be good-looking, and the song is so sweet!" If you're in the city, you'll definitely be a singer, and if you want to participate in any super girl, you have to be the first place. ”

Yuqin blushed even more when she said this. A few bold boys clamored for Qi Yun to put out a show, Qi Yun staggered to his feet, but said: "I don't have any artistic talent, if you want me to perform a show during the day, it's okay, this big night, if you recruit a wolf, it's not good." But since everyone has brought it up, I can't disappoint you. The eldest brother of my family, don't look at people who look rough, in fact, he has been a literary and artistic pioneer since he was a child, let him put on a show for you instead of me to ensure that you don't suffer. ”

Hong Jian was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Qi Yun to sell himself so grandly. Qi Yun sat down beside him and blew in his ear with a wink, full of the smell of wine.

"Brother Ajian, I really drank a little big tongue today, help, save the scene, I will remember your great kindness for the rest of my life."

Hong Jian helplessly glanced at the guy beside him who had neither alcohol nor alcohol, and Qi Yun's face was already full of redness. Can't drink it and still be so reckless, Hong Jian muttered, took out a blade of grass that he had picked in the mountains just now from his pocket, and put it to his lips to play Zhilai.

Hong Jian's stunt of blowing the grass whistle was learned from his father, his father was in the army, he was really a literary and artistic pioneer, and in the early years the army did not have any decent musical instruments, Hong Jian's father blew a grass whistle in one hand, and it is said that he was praised by a national leader when he was young. People are always extremely impressed by the honor of their youth, so Hong Jian from the beginning of Uncle Hong to teach him to play the grass whistle, he lived up to his father's expectations, the skills passed on seven or eight out of ten, at this time in this firelight, both silent and lively country night blowing, the whistle is more melodious and moving.

"We used to wander all day long, on the green hills of our homeland,

We have also gone through hardships, wandering around,

We were like-minded in the past, let us shake hands,

Raise a glass and drink in unison, and the friendship will last forever......"

The melodious sound of the grass whistle made the banquet silent for a while. Hong Jian was blowing intoxicated, and suddenly Qi Yun frowned and pulled the hem of his clothes, Hong Jian ignored her, and Qi Yun pulled harder.

The grass whistle of the flood arrow came to an abrupt end. He turned his inquiring gaze to Qi Yun, Qi Yun's little face was wrinkled like a walnut, and he was very embarrassed to whisper to Hong Jian's ear and said, "Brother Hong Jian, accompany me to the toilet." ”

Seeing Hong Jian's expression of being scorched by thunder, Qi Yun was embarrassed: "I'm really sorry, Brother Ajian, the toilet here is far away and unsafe...... Well, you just have to walk with me to the entrance of the village, and then I can touch the toilet myself......"

Hong Jian glanced around, the rural people are more feudal, there are no female parents in attendance as usual, the village chief and the principal are also two big men, girls do, but they are too young, this is more in the middle of the night, accompanying Qi Yun out, it is not safe than Qi Yun. Thinking of this, Hong Jian was also surprised by his restraint, he once went deep into the battlefield with his female colleagues, and it was not unheard of something more embarrassing than accompanying him to the toilet, so why bother to be so rigid today? It seems that he also has a time when he shows off his brains. He smiled bitterly, stood up and helped Qi Yun out.

Qi Yun drank half a catty of high-grade liquor tonight, and he was so drunk that he staggered when he walked. Hong Jian helped her, she shook her hair, leaned on Hong Jian's body with half of her body sideways, and the soft touch of the girl's body somehow made Hong Jian's heart thump. He quickly pushed her gently in the opposite direction, keeping her slightly away from his body, and then holding her steadily. Qi Yun drank too much, laughing all the way, and the laughter was crisp and pleasant.

"Brother Aji, look," Qi Yun stretched out a finger and innocently pointed to the sky, "Look at the stars in this sky." ”

Hong Jian raised his head. The visibility of the sky in the mountains is extremely high, and the blue sky is full of stars, it is really like the gold thread embroidered on the ink blue velvet, it is beautiful, what is the star and the Han are brilliant, this is it.

"Brother Ajian, I can't really say the benefits of the countryside, do you say it...... If nothing else, when will you see so many stars in the city...... So much, so much! ”

Qi Yun broke away from Hong Jian, stretched out her arms, and made a gesture of wanting to hug the stars, her body shook a few times, and she was almost about to fall on her back, Hong Jian reached out to help her, her body was too heavy, she still fell, and fell to the ground but still stretched her arms to the stars to hug her.

Hong Jian laughed and tried to pull her up, but she struggled hard again, and he had to coax her to say, "Yes, yes, a lot of stars." ”

Qi Yun panted violently, and his head was heavily tilted to Hong Jian's shoulder. Hong Jian couldn't dodge, so she simply sat on the ground, and let her rest by herself. Her hair was lifted by the slight night breeze, and the pieces were blown on Hong Jian's face, Qi Yun was not drunk, and was still humming and singing.

But when it came to singing, Hong Jian had to carefully distinguish for a while before she could figure out what she was singing, and what was ironic was that Qi Yun sang a children's song: "Twinkle and twinkle, the sky is full of little stars......" She repeated it several times, and then hung her head and was silent for a long time, so long that Hong Jian thought she was asleep, and was thinking about how to get her back to the dormitory, but she suddenly pushed Hong Jian away and jumped up by herself.

Hong Jian was startled, and quickly jumped up to help her. The heart said that this person's wine is so bad, it is really rare in the world, and next time, no matter what excuse she has, she will never let her drink again.

He sighed: "You look like this, don't go back to the banquet, I'll send you back to the dormitory, right?" ”

Qi Yun looked at him in a daze, and nodded obediently. Hong Jian finally breathed a sigh of relief, almost afraid that she would regret it, so he immediately picked her up and went to the dormitory. Qi Yun didn't resist, Ren Hongjian pulled, and his mouth was still vague, humming the nursery rhyme of Little Star without a word.

I don't know how many times I sang Little Star before Hong Jian sent Qi Yun to the bed in her dormitory. Pulled up the quilt and covered her, and the strong Hong Jian was also sweating. Seeing Qi Yun sleeping and being extremely coquettish, Hong Jian couldn't help but reach out and pinch her little apple's face a few times.

"Little girl, your flesh grows in your bones, right?"

If Qi Yun was awake at this time, he would probably be so angry that he would have screamed again. Hong Jian straightened up, strode towards the door, and just as his hand reached the doorknob, he suddenly heard a clear whisper from behind him:

"Brother Aji...... Thank you, I know...... Actually, you're a good person! ”

Hong Jian smiled bitterly and shook his head, what do you mean by actually being a good person? Does he look like a bad guy? Open the door and walk out, turn around and gently help her close the door. Thinking that Qi Yun had drunk too much after all, Hong Jian didn't dare to leave immediately, but sat at Qi Yun's door for a while, listening to the sound of breathing across the wall gradually becoming smooth and even, and then walked towards the student dormitory by the starlight in the sky.

As he walked, he took out a grass whistle from his pocket and blew it gently,

"Twinkle twinkle twinkle,

The sky is full of little stars.

Hang in the sky and shine brightly,

It's like a thousand small eyes.

Twinkle and twinkle,

The sky is full of little stars. ”
