When Liu Shi saw Zhao Mo coming over in person, he thought that he had an urgent matter to discuss with him, so he hurriedly invited him to the quiet room to discuss in detail. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 After learning that Zhao Mian came this time just to give Nuan Nuan a gift for her second birthday, Liu Zhi took the jade pendant in shock, and then smiled and said: "This matter is also worth a trip for Lord Zhao personally, thank you very much!" ”

"That's right. Before I came to Honghe County, I didn't expect such a day! Zhao Mo smiled heartily, although he didn't hate the other party because of Liu Shi's original righteous words, but he didn't expect that the two would have a day when they would talk happily, work together, and share honor and disgrace - it is rare for Wenchen and military generals to get along, not to mention that there is a "vendetta" between the two.

Liu Shi heard Zhao Mian say this, and thought of the intersection between the two all the way, from guarding against each other to exchanging hearts with each other, and couldn't help laughing.

In the evening, Liu Zhi handed over the jade pendant sent by Zhao Mian to Peng Jin, and said with a smile: "This is Mr. Zhao's birthday gift specially given to Nuan Nuan, and you have collected it for her." ”

The consternation on Peng Jin's face flashed away, and then he took it with a smile, and naturally responded obediently: "Okay." ”

Zhao Milling's identity on the face is still Liu Zhi's confidant, and now people happen to be in Honghe County, and it is normal to give gifts when they meet Nuan Nuan's birthday, she knows that Zhao Milling's identity as a merchant is fake, and she also understands that the relationship between Zhao Milling and Zhi is by no means as simple as the word "acquaintance", but the face is always covered up for Zhao Milling.

Liu Zhi noticed the slight change in Peng Jin's expression, reached out to take her into his arms, sighed lightly, put his chin on her shoulder, and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

obviously had doubts, but because he believed in him and was afraid of adding difficulties to him, he chose not to ask and believed it completely.

"You're working hard!" Peng Jin hugged Liu Shi back and said warmly.

The most bitter people are never those who are kept in the dark, and in the deception of good intentions, they can still live calmly and happily; The most bitter thing has always been the person who lied with good intentions, not only to be vigilant against the lie being exposed, but also to bear the guilt of lying alone.

Liu Zhi hugged Peng Jin tightly, lightly imprinted a kiss on her hair, and suddenly smiled: "You say, are the two of us touting each other?" ”

Peng Jin pretended to think seriously for a while before nodding solemnly and said, "Count!" ”

With that, both husband and wife burst out laughing.

"Shhhhhhh Peng Jin remembered Nuan Nuan, who was already sleeping in the warm pavilion, and hurriedly shushed.

Liu Zhiqiang held back a smile and nodded.

In the quiet night, in the red tent, a pair of beautiful people, chattering softly, and the money is warm.

Nuan Nuan's second birthday ceremony is very simple, all the people who send congratulatory gifts, regardless of the weight of the gifts, Liu Shi invites them to the restaurant for a banquet, and then the prepared dim sum gifts are sent one by one.

A dim sum, although not expensive, but better than the mind, can give a more expensive gift does not care about money, what cares about this heart; And for those who can only express their hearts, this snack can also thank them for their sincerity and let them have a full meal.

Peng Yongxin and others were also busy and came back to celebrate Nuan Nuan's birthday.

Qingming at the end of February, and the rain in the valley in March are good times for tea picking, and now is the key time for tea making and tea storage.

Peng Jin prepared a family banquet at home to receive them, and as for Zhao Miao, he naturally couldn't show up.

Fortunately, Liu Shi had already calculated this stubble, so on the second day after Zhao Mo sent the congratulatory gift, he asked Peng Jin to set up a banquet to thank him, and explained the reason to Zhao Miao.

Being able to avoid Peng Yongxin and Peng Yu, who knew him well, Zhao Mian naturally had no words.

And Peng Yongxin and the others did not stay long, and after staying for a little repair on the night of Nuan Nuan's birthday, they set off early the next morning and returned to the southern tea plantation.

When parting, it is indispensable to be reluctant to be nostalgic.

This time apart, Nuan Nuan, who has grown up, has been able to restrain her emotions, but her eyes are red, she is reluctant to let go of Brother Rui's little hand, and she is reluctant to let go of her grandfather, uncle and aunt, and she keeps inviting everyone to come again.

Zhou Shuyi touched Nuan Nuan's little face, sighed with red eyes: "Nuan Nuan's appearance is even more reluctant than last time!" ”

The little girl had red eyes, tears were rolling in her eyes, she bit her lip and endured it, holding her hand and inviting her to come again next time, which made people's hearts soft and sour.

It happened that Peng Yongxin and others were walking on a newly renovated avenue, and Liu saw that everyone was reluctant, so he simply took Peng Jin and Nuan Nuan all the way to the end of the road, near the southernmost border of Honghe County, on the grounds of inspecting the road renovation.

However, to send you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye in the end.

Especially after the road was repaired, the traffic was smooth and fast, and the time to say goodbye on the road seemed to be more and more short.

But no matter how reluctant they were, everyone could only watch the carriage and horses of Peng Yongxin and his party gradually disappear at the end of their vision.

Nuan Nuan threw herself into Peng Jin's arms, with tears on her face, choked up, and asked her brother pitifully when she would come back.

Peng Jin hugged Nuan Nuan and comforted softly: "Wait until Nuan Nuan is older, and when Daddy is done after a while, we can go to see my grandfather, uncle, aunt and Brother Rui!" ”

Nuan Nuan nodded seriously, stretched out her little thumb, and said solemnly to Peng Jin: "Mother, pull the hook." ”

"Good!" Peng Jin smiled and stretched out his little finger, hooked it with Nuan Nuan's little finger, and printed the thumbs of the two together, and said with a smile, "Pull the hook and stamp, it will not change for a hundred years!" ”

Nuan Nuan broke into laughter.

Little did anyone know, however, that two months later, a devastating flood would struck Honghe County and the surrounding counties, flooding the fertile fields of the villages, displacing people and starving them.

Liu Shi was busy with disaster relief, where did he still have time to take Nuan Nuan to visit Peng Yongxin and others in the southern tea garden.

Moreover, the flood was severe, causing landslides in many places, and roads were washed away and buried, leaving no road to the tea plantations to the south.

A month after Nuan Nuan's birthday, all the rebuilt roads in Honghe County were completed and opened to traffic normally.

In addition, Liu Shi also started construction of another new road, mainly to facilitate the transportation of mountain goods out of the mountains - Liu Shi's move was really to benefit the people, but not just to make a show and cover up his identity for Zhao Miao.

The mountain roads are rugged and difficult to develop, and it takes a lot of time.

Fortunately, there is still some time before the large-scale harvest of mountain goods, and it is almost too late to calculate the days.

In mid-June, it was the annual double rush season, and the people were busy harvesting and grabbing seeds, and even the road construction project was suspended.

Seeing that all the grain was about to be harvested, the upper reaches of the Red River burst its banks, and a catastrophic flood invaded the area through which the Red River flowed, and the early rice was almost not harvested, and the late rice could not be sown in time, thus triggering a once-in-a-century famine.

PS: Finally home! One more is on ~ The remaining two are still on the way, the time is uncertain, but they will definitely arrive before twelve o'clock! (To be continued.) )
