And the problem that Yunli was worried about did not happen, with Xu Ping's urging, Xu Lin was still able to roughly complete the work. And a few days later, seeing that Yun Li's two-story building was empty, he simply brought his luggage and moved in.

Yun Li has no opinion on this, anyway, he has moved into the bamboo building now, and the two-story small building is useless if it is empty, and it doesn't hurt to live in him, but Xu Ping is very unhappy, and at first he wanted Xu Lin to move home, but after some disputes, he still chose to compromise.

Xu Lin had three large suitcases of luggage, which were moved back and forth three times by tricycle, and it seemed that he was going to settle down for a long time. What intrigued Yunli was that the boxes he used to hold things were very elegant and exquisite, one was a large square mahogany box with many lines carved on the surface, and the other two were cylindrical bamboo boxes, which were very rounded and did not look like bamboo products at all.

Xu Lin is usually silent, except for daily farm work, he is either drinking, sleeping or in a daze, and rarely goes out. The three meals are also cooked separately, sometimes Xu Ping will come to Xiaolou to eat with Xu Lin, and he will also invite Yunli to come together, and after more contact, Yunli will get used to his state.

On this day, after Yunli inspected the situation in the experimental field, he went to the town to buy a local chicken, a piece of pork belly, and a few boxes of cooked food.

When it was almost eleven o'clock, two new faces came to Xiaolushan, a man and a woman, about the same age as Yunli, the two came on a motorcycle, walked up the stone steps side by side, and curiously wandered around, before entering the courtyard where the bamboo building was located.

There is a small bamboo gate in front of the courtyard, which is not locked, and it is made by Yunli himself under the guidance of Brother Chen, which is ordinary, but it is passable. There is a short stone passage behind the small bamboo gate, which is more than ten meters long, which is connected to the bamboo building, and the lawn planted in the yard has not yet grown, and now only some scattered grass can be seen, which is very desolate.

"Yunli, we're here." Seeing that there was no one in the courtyard, the young woman shouted loudly. The young woman wears a white shirt and jeans, short hair, and a pair of black-framed glasses.

"Okay, I'm on the phone, you guys go upstairs, the stairs are on the right." After hearing the shout, Yunli's figure immediately appeared on the balcony on the second floor, holding a phone in one hand and pointing to the stairs on the right with the other, signaling the two to come up to the bamboo building.

"What are you doing, it's not going to be a temporary cramming and looking for Brother Chen's support, right?" After coming to the small hall on the second floor of the bamboo building, the young man handed the fruit he was holding to Yun Li, and guessed with a smile. The young man was tall and thin, with fair skin, wearing a pair of thick square-rimmed glasses, and was dressed very fashionably, not from the countryside at first glance.

"Exactly, I originally asked him to come, but I was sent away with a sentence of 'meeting'." Taking the fruit of the tall and thin young man, Yunli sighed helplessly. These two people and Yunli are the same teachers who came to Luzhen to teach, the tall and thin young man is called Jiang Wenfeng, and the short-haired young woman is called Pan Jing.

Both of them are fresh graduates this year, and after the teaching mission, they will go to Linshan County to receive study, and both of them have already had a job assignment, and in a few days, they will go their separate ways. After working together in a difficult and unfamiliar place for half a year, the three of them were somewhat reluctant, so they agreed to come to Yunli for dinner and have a casual meal before parting.

Originally, Brother Chen was invited to help make this meal, but there was a temporary teachers' meeting in the county, so Yunli had to make it by himself.

"Is there anything we can help with? Hehe, although when I was at home, I didn't go to the kitchen much. Pan Jing said jokingly, and Jiang Wenfeng also spread his hands, saying that he could not do anything.

"I didn't expect the two young masters' daughters, the local chicken is already steaming, and there is still a piece of meat to fry later, I'll take you to visit the bamboo building first, maybe you won't want to leave after that." Yun left a playful expression, and then took the two of them to visit the bamboo building.

It's been half a year since they came to Luzhen, but Jiang Wenfeng and Pan Jing are not like Yunli, they rarely go to the countryside and see bamboo buildings, but they haven't gone in to observe. After seeing Yunli's simple and exquisite bamboo building, both of them did not hesitate to praise them, and of course, they also took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

After the visit, Yunli also followed the path taught by Brother Chen, and made a plate of fried pork belly slices with small wild bamboo shoots, plus the specialty dish he recently learned, steamed local chicken with potatoes, and a few snacks bought, a table full of Luzhen style meals was ready. Since it is a casual meal, it is indispensable to drink some wine, the local liquor is high, and the three of them are not used to drinking it, so this time they use cold beer instead.

Yunli set up a table on the balcony on the second floor, and the three of them brought all the food to the balcony and sat around a small stool to eat.

"What method did you use to snatch the string of purple bamboo wind chimes from Brother Chen's hands, this is the meat of his heart, pity me for serving him with delicious and good tea, and in the end I only asked for two bamboo bowls, and I had to give one to Wen Feng." Seeing the purple bamboo wind chimes hanging on the eaves of the balcony, Pan Jing liked and was angry, and among the gadgets of Brother Chen, her favorite was also this string of wind chimes. But no matter how hard she stalked, grinded and soaked, Brother Chen was unmoved, and finally sent her two carved bamboo bowls.

"That bamboo bowl is very good, anyway, I haven't seen such a delicate bamboo bowl sold elsewhere, just use it as a souvenir, go back and give it to my old man, why don't you give me your one too?" Jiang Wenfeng teased.

"The bamboo bowl can be given to you, but the condition is that you want to be a gentleman on the beam once, and give me this purple bamboo wind chime tonight." Pan Jing took a sip of beer and said unceremoniously.

Jiang Wenfeng didn't think about it, and said bluntly: "No problem, you don't have to wait until the evening, I'll touch it for you later." ”

"Hey, two people's teachers, su zhì, pay attention to su zhì!" Zizhu Wind Chimes Yunli will not cede, in order to make them die, he also pretended to warn seriously: "Wait a minute, I will go and borrow the two big black dogs that bark the most fiercely at the head of the village to watch the door, no matter what kind of gentleman you are a gentleman or not, if you dare to come, close the door and let the dog go." ”

"It just so happens that when we entered the village, there were two blind guys who were yelling and screaming, and they were just brought in to teach them a lesson." Pan Jing was not to be outdone, just like her short hair, crisp and straightforward.

"Come on, come on, have a drink, although Brother Chen didn't come, but in the past six months, I have tossed his old man, respect Brother Chen, I wish him a long and healthy life." Jiang Wenfeng interrupted the bickering between the two and said seriously with his cup held high.

"I wish him never to retire and become the honorary principal of Luzhen Middle School."

"All the best!"

Pan Jing and Yun Li also expressed their wishes one after another, and the three of them raised their glasses and drank freely, with great interest.

Pan Jing is from the southern coastal area, but the university is in a school in the southwest city, and some schools recommend that she will continue to teach in the middle school in the next county next semester, and the conditions are much better than in Luzhen Middle School.

Jiang Wenfeng is a native of the north, and the university was studied in a very famous normal university in the north, and their family has been teachers for three generations, which can be regarded as a scholarly family. With a good background and excellent grades, he will go to the middle school affiliated to the Normal University to take up a new job, preparing to work and take the postgraduate entrance examination at the same time.

After the volunteer teaching task was over, the two of them had to go to the county to attend training courses, make volunteer teaching reports, and participate in the selection of outstanding teachers, so they have not left until now. Yunli didn't plan to continue teaching, so he didn't have to go through these prescribed procedures.

"Yunli, you're only a junior this year, what are your plans for the next academic year, don't you go to graduate school?" Jiang Wenfeng filled the cups of the three with wine and asked Yunli.

Yunli shook his head and said, "I don't have any plans for this, you have all seen it, I am now putting my whole body and mind on Xiaolu Mountain, compared to the three-foot podium, I still prefer this mountain wilderness." ”

"I understand, everyone has their own ambitions, it's not bad to be a farmer, you are at ease, come, senior sister, I will toast you, and all your wishes will come true." Pan Jing took the wine glass and greeted Yunli.

In fact, anyone will be surprised when they encounter this kind of thing, among the three, Yun Li's school is the best, and it only took him more than two years to complete the credits required for his professional disciplines, and he is a first-class honor student in any school. Putting aside the broad road and not taking it, but finding another way, this is not a decision that ordinary people can make.

"I also wish you all the best of luck, in our northern dialect, a good future." Jiang Wenfeng also sent out his sincere wishes.

Jiang Wenfeng has been nurtured by his elders since he was a child, and he aspires to be a teacher, and his family also has sufficient resources to train him, so his life can be described as smooth sailing, without any twists and turns, and because of this, it is inevitable that he will develop a kind of arrogance that does not admit defeat. In Luzhen Middle School, Yunli is the most popular teacher, and his teaching performance is also very good.

Subconsciously, Jiang Wenfeng regarded Yunli as his biggest competitor very early, and in the process of observation and comparison, he was gradually improving, and he was also one of the outstanding teachers in the county this time.

When he learned that Yunli was going to give up his career as a teacher and change his career to farming, he was secretly happy in his heart for a long time, and his biggest opponent withdrew from the competition, and the pressure on his own was suddenly lightened a lot. Usually the relationship between the two is not far or close, but since that decision, he has been much more enthusiastic about Yunli.

After the joy, the sense of loss gradually surfaced, he felt like a coward, afraid and avoiding competition, he was eager to have a fair competition with Yunli, even if the final result was failure, he was willing to bear it, but unfortunately there was no such opportunity.

Until recently, when parting was imminent, Jiang Wenfeng found that his mentality had changed, he no longer cared about comparison, and he no longer cared about competition, Yunli was an opponent and a friend to him, so when he came to dinner today, he could face Yunli and let go of himself.

Yunli is a sensitive person, and he is also very good at observing words and feelings, and he sees Jiang Wenfeng's change in his attitude.

Yunli is not a person who loves to compete, others regard himself as an opponent, this is also the most honest recognition, he has always regarded Jiang Wenfeng as a friend, seeing that he can overcome the obstacles in his heart and take a new step, Yunli is also sincerely happy for him.
