It has been a while since the old lady's funeral, Deng Han returned to Singapore again, Qiao Haiyang stayed in City C, and the family became deserted again without a hostess.

During the period, the director and the deputy director interviewed Yuan Lu and asked her to be the anchor of the new eight o'clock file, Yuan Lu's attitude was very resolute, and the director scolded her behind her back, but she still talked and laughed with her on the surface. Bai Jingxi's program was still transferred to the 22 o'clock file, and the time vacated by the eight o'clock file was temporarily topped by other programs.

Liu Lu's hukou problem Yu Weiwu has been implemented, and even Yuan Lu, the primary school that Liu Lu is going to attend, has visited the site, and it is a private primary school with a good reputation.

Yuan Lu wanted to help Liu Lu find an adoptive family, and secretly asked Liu Lu in private if she wanted to have any more parents, but she shook her head and said: "I want to stay with Uncle Yu, he is the best for me, of course, you are also very good to me." ”

Yuan Lu scolded her with a smile, Yu Weiwu is a bachelor with a seven-year-old girl, it is always inconvenient, and Liu Lu's identity is quite wonderful, Yu Weiwu plans to wait for Liu Lu to be a little older and can take care of himself independently, so he will transfer Liu Lu to another place, whether C City has eyes on her or not, Liu Fayan's case is sinking into the sea, in case one day it is turned over by someone with a heart, and Liu Lu will inevitably be hurt a second time at that time.

Summer is getting closer and closer, there is already a little shadow of summer in C City in May, May Day is off for three days, Qiao's father flew to Singapore to reunite with Qiao's mother, Qiao Zhengqi has not been home in the real yàn room for almost a week, Yuan Lu himself was tortured by the manuscript to a head and two big, resting for three days and wishing to sleep at home, and he was too lazy to go out to travel and crowd people.

On the first day of the holiday, I slept dimly, felt itchy on my face in a daze, and when I woke up, I found Qiao Zhengqi kissing her by the bedside.

She shook her head and woke up instantly: "Why are you back?" ”

His hair was half-damp and he was wearing a bathrobe, apparently looking like he had just taken a shower.

"Just got back from the gym and took a shower, and see if you call you before you get up when it's time."

Yuan Lu glanced at the alarm clock next to the bed and pursed his mouth: "It's only half past eight, I still want to sleep more." ”

Ignoring him, he rolled up the quilt and turned his back to prepare to continue to sleep.

One side of the bed sank in, he lay down next to her, and Yuan Lu jumped up from the bed in fright: "What are you going to do!" ”

Qiao Zhengqi looked disdainful of her fuss, and patted the bed and motioned for her to lie down.

Yuan Lu wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and said vigilantly: "You have to sleep back in your room." ”

Qiao Zhengqi squinted at her, reached out to peel off the quilt on her body, and said in a gloomy tone: "Aunt Zhang, they are doing sanitation downstairs, are you sure you want to be so hostile to me?" ”

Yuan Lu slapped his hand away, lowered his voice hatefully, and said, "Then you lie down a little." ”

Qiao Zhengqi moved to the side very cooperatively, Yuan Lu knew that he had fallen for him again as soon as he lay down, he pressed her with one leg like a scoundrel, put his hand on her waist, and as soon as she lay down, he grabbed her waist and rolled her into his arms.

He rested his chin on the top of her head and asked softly with affection, "Don't you want me?" ”

Yuan Lu gradually quieted down, he hadn't seen him for a week, except for the occasional WeChat call, it seemed that he hadn't felt the temperature of his body for a long time.

She was sneering, a little stubborn, and said, "Yes." ”

He pecked her soft lips and said, "Then you won't come to see me?" The key was given to you to come to me when you miss me. ”

She bit his lip and asked, "Then why don't you go home?" ”

After speaking, the two of them sighed in unison, he had his scientific research, she had her news, and the two of them refused to relax lightly when they were doing their respective careers.

He asked, "Are you more serious about your work?" ”

Yuan Lu nodded: "I think it is meaningful, and the whole person is unprecedentedly fulfilling." ”

"Your newly opened Weibo, don't take selfies, and there are no comments underneath."

"And said that I, what kind of goodnight do you send in the middle of the night, how many girls are below. Besides, I opened Weibo for work, and the director pressed me to open it, and I re-registered one in order to help the station publicize. ”

"That's what I said to you."

"Huh......?"

"Good night."

Yuan Lu was stunned for a moment, then his eyes bent into a string moon, and he said softly: "Well......"

Qiao Zhengqi turned over and pressed her under him, his hands pressed against her head, his eyes focused and deep.

A drop of water from his wet hair dripped onto her eyelid, and he carefully kissed it off.

"Qiao Zhengqi ......"

"Huh?"

"Itchy."

"Where?"

"Eyes."

His burning breath spread across her face, and his thin lips moved from eyelids to hers, like tasting the most precious chocolate in the world, reluctant to eat it in one bite, sucking it little by little, rubbing it little by little, tasting a hint of bitterness and then tasting endless sweetness.

Yuan Lu was kissed by him unbearably, his hands unconsciously wrapped around his waist, the belt of the bathrobe was grabbed by her, and the whole placket hung down loosely, and his bare upper body, with a thin texture halo after the morning gym, stuck to her body.

Sunlight filtered through the cracks in the curtains, projecting on his back, swaying like golden ears of wheat on his body as his upper body kept moving.

Awakening a man's morning ** is a primitive and warm emotion.

Yuan Lu didn't realize when he stripped off his shirt, and when the temperature of his palm met the softness of her chest, the whole figure was thrown into the boiling water, and she couldn't help but moan.

Her hands were clasped around the belt around his waist, her toes taut, desperately trying to grasp something in the ups and downs of passion.

He buried himself in her chest, trying to soothe her uneasy feelings with the utmost passion, the loose belt around his waist was no longer enough to give her enough security, her hands held the back of his head, and her fingers began to unconsciously run through his black hair.

At the head of the bed, the second hand of the alarm clock rustles, and every second seems to be engraved on the Gobi of the desert, thirsty and long.

She thought that the passion would go on and on until she found a fit for each other, but he relented and said, "Get up, I'll take you somewhere." ”

Her sanity gradually returned, and her eyes met his scarlet eyes because of his scarlet restraint, and the ** contained in them was clear at a glance.

She rubbed her lips against his chin, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where to go?" ”

"A place you want to go."

*************

Qiao Zhengqi drove a jeep carrying Yuan Lu all the way down from City C.

As the car drove into the familiar gravel road, Yuan Lu's eyes began to warm.

"How do you know this?" She slept all the way in the car, and soon after she woke up, she opened her eyes and looked at the familiar bumpy road in front of her, and her emotions were a little out of control.

"Didn't you say you wanted to come back and see? I can't take a break, and I'll take you to see it during the holidays. ”

Her eyes were full of moisture, and she looked at him a little helplessly, he held the convenience plate with one hand, and handed her the thermos cup he brought before going out: "Are you thirsty?" Drink some water, I haven't had water for three or four hours on the road. ”

He slowed down the car to make it less bumpy.

Yuan Lu unscrewed the lid of the cup and took a sip of warm flower tea, and asked, "Do you drink it?" I'll feed you. ”

Qiao Zhengqi controlled the steering wheel with both hands and said, "No, you concentrate on sitting well, this road is too bumpy." ”

The jeep drove into the village and attracted the attention of many people, men, women and children looking at the path of the car.

Yuan Lu gave Qiao Zhengqi a command, and the car stopped in front of a row of old houses.

Yuan Lu said: "This is my third wife's home, you park the car in front of her house, and I will go to say hello in a while, and then we will go to see the tombs of my parents and younger brother." ”

Yuan Lu jumped out of the car first, and walked to the room on the far left of the old house.

The old house has a total of three rooms, originally the third wife and several uncles lived here, but later several uncles were gone, and only the third wife lived alone. The old man is more than 90 years old, in addition to the ears back a little, the body is very tough, often grow their own sweet potatoes and loofahs, in previous years, the original Lu Qingming will come, the three grandmothers will give her sweet potato porridge to drink, fry two of their own side vegetables, clear oil and water, is the authentic hometown taste.

Yuan Lu walked around the old house, calling Ah Tai all the way, but he didn't find the third Ah Tai, so he planned to take Qiao Zhengqi to see the tomb first.

There are many old people in the village, and young people are rarely seen, but there are many children, and monkeys come to ask who the original heron is, why they have not seen it before.

The eyes of the original heron are a little red, and the children do not know each other, and they smile and ask where the guests are from, which is really uncomfortable.

Yuan Lu led Qiao Zhengqi all the way to the grave of his parents and younger brother, the tomb was in the northwest of the village by a bend of the clear stream, at the beginning of the parents they were in a hurry, the rest of the family did not know where to go, could not afford to buy a cemetery, and could not afford to hire Mr. Feng Shui, so they could only move the ashes of their parents and younger brother back to the countryside and find a place with a good scenery to bury them.

The ashes of his parents and younger brother were buried together, and the grass grew half a man tall on the grave.

Yuan Lu bent down to pull the weeds on the grave, and Qiao Zhengqi silently accompanied her to weed.

When the weeds were almost gone, Yuan Lu kowtowed three times in front of the grave and said, "Parents, brother, you should be in a hurry when you come back late this year, but this time you came in a hurry, and the incense paper money didn't have time to prepare, and I will burn more for you when I come back." Don't worry about me, I'm doing well. ”

She took Qiao Zhengqi's hand beside her and said, "This is my brother in Qiao's family, the first time you have met." ”

Qiao Zhengqi knelt down with her, and Yuan Lu was very moved in her eyes.

"Uncle and aunt, brother, I'm Qiao Zhengqi, Lulu's boyfriend, the first time I came to see you, I don't know the etiquette, I didn't prepare anything. The heron is very good now, and it will always be so good in the future, you can rest assured. ”

Yuan Lu pulled him up with tears, he was an eight-foot man with gold under his knees, and she was embarrassed to let him kneel for a long time.

Qiao Zhengqi kowtowed very reverently before getting up.

Hara helped him dust off the knees of his pants.

He smiled and said, "We have all bowed in front of your parents, can you still rely on it in this life?" ”

Yuan Lu sniffed and said in a sour tone: "You think I'm as scoundrel as you?" Go on the scamp. ”

He reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said, "I won't let you cry in the future, make a vow in front of your parents, if you are unhappy, I will be a thousand times more unhappy than you, and I will bear all the misfortunes alone." ”

"Who made you swear? Didn't you say that I was determined in this life, how could I be happy if you weren't happy? She reached out and clasped her fingers at him.

The two men pressed their foreheads against each other and smiled.

After helping his parents and younger brother sweep the tomb, Yuan Lu took Qiao Zhengqi to the stream to wash his hands, and the two walked hand in hand by the stream, occasionally passing by the villagers did not know them and would cast curious glances.

*************

The scenery of the countryside is very idyllic, tired of the high-rise buildings and busy traffic in the city, and returning to such a quiet and indifferent village, the wound in my heart seems to be slowly healed.

Yuan Lu pulled Qiao Zhengqi to walk back, and saw San'a Tai guarding in front of the jeep from a distance, and kept asking whose car it was, Yuan Lu shook off Qiao Zhengqi's hand and ran up happily.

The third Ah Tai was stunned when she saw Yuan Lu and said, "Ah Lu, is it you?" ”

Yuan Lu affectionately took the hand of the third Ah Tai, and said a little coquettishly: "Ah Tai, it's me, I'm back." ”

The third lady had bad ears and didn't hear her clearly, but she kept nodding happily: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back......"

Yuan Lu turned around and shouted to Qiao Zhengqi: "Come on, this is my third wife." ”

Qiao Zhengqi walked up to the old man, and the third lady looked at him carefully and seriously from head to toe, and after a while, said, "This young man was born so well, why have I never seen it?" ”

Yuan Lu leaned into her ear and whispered, "This is my brother." ”

"What?" The third lady shouted.

Qiao Zhengqi glanced at Yuan Lu helplessly, took the initiative to lean into the other ear of the third grandmother, and said loudly: "Auntie, I am the boyfriend of the heron." ”

"Boyfriend? Alu's? Okay, good ......" The third Ah Tai kept nodding her head, took Yuan Lu's hand and then Qiao Zhengqi's hand, folded their hands together, and patted them gently: "Ah Lu has a boyfriend, your grandmother must be happy to know it." ”

The third lady loves the juniors, and keeps asking Yuan Lu if they have eaten, Qiao Zhengqi is afraid of troublesome the old man, so he keeps saying that he has eaten, but the old man didn't listen to the back of his ear, and hurriedly went to the stove to start burning wood for cooking.

Yuan Lu moved a bamboo chair very leisurely, let Qiao Zhengqi sit in front of the terrace in the courtyard to bask in the sun, and he went behind the stove to help Ah Tai burn firewood.

She misses Ah Tai's sweet potato porridge and side dishes.

Halfway through Qiao Zhengqi entered the stove room, she was driven out with a firewood: "Gentleman is far away, you go outside and wait." ”

Qiao Zhengqi raised his eyebrows helplessly.

When she came out with a pot of sweet and soft sweet potato porridge, Qiao Zhengqi was playing with a few children in the yard, and he led a few children to play marbles on the ground like a big child.

Yuan Lu coughed: "It's time to eat." ”

Qiao Zhengqi patted the ashes on his hands, coaxed the child away, and then went to the faucet to flush his hands, and walked over with a hippie smile and smelled the pot of porridge in Wen Yuanlu's hand.

"It's pretty good." He was joking that she didn't even know the gas switch wasn't on when she was at home.

"Of course I'm on my turf."

Yuan Lu moved two stools together, put the porridge and side dishes on top, and moved a bamboo chair to sit face-to-face with Qiao Zhengqi.

The two of you say a word, just like an ordinary peasant and peasant woman in the countryside.

The fresh vegetables are dried on a thin hemp rope at neat intervals, and the afternoon sun shines through Ah Tai's silver hair, which is quiet and peaceful.

**********

The two said goodbye to the third grandmother and drove the car out of the village, the sun had already set.

Yuan Lu put his hand on the door frame of the car, and his head was half out of the window to see the endless blue wheat waves on the side of the road, and the warm wind blew on his face in the evening, and the car drove on the shaky road in the countryside.

Not long after eating, the car was so bumpy that Yuan Lu was a little motion sick, and Qiao Zhengqi parked the car in an open place on the side of the road.

The original heron got off the car and turned around, and the surrounding wheat fields were still green dwarf seedlings at this time.

In the distance, a weeder drove slowly through a wheat field, its wheels rolling forward in circles, and on it sat a farmer with a wide-brimmed apricot rattan hat.

Qiao Zhengqi stepped on the roof of the jeep and looked down on the blue field, and the fading red sun on the horizon was dyed with a whole fire-like glow.

"Come up?" He went to call the original heron.

Yuan Lu turned around and saw that he had gone to the roof of the car at some point, standing high on it, like an inviolable statue.

She walked over and gave him his hand, and he taught her to step on the door frame and use the strength of his hand to get up to the roof.

Yuan Lu climbed onto the roof of the car with some effort, and was a little afraid of falling, so he simply fell on the roof of the car, pillowed his hands behind his head, and lay on his back to watch the sky full of sunshine.

Qiao Zhengqi also lay down beside her, his right hand wrapped around her left hand, his fingers interlocked, and he raised it high.

He guided their palms together to the setting sun until they found a perfect angle to completely obscure the full sun, and then he said, "Is it like this sky is brilliant because of the light from the palms we are holding?" ”

She smiled, "Hmm. ”

He rested one hand behind his head, his eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the sky; She tilted her head slightly, her eyes as if she were looking into the distance, but she was actually looking at him.

The peak of his nose is very straight, like a mountain carved into the sky; The thin lips are slightly pursed, and it is a meandering river, babbling and hanging in the sky; His eyes were filled with the gorgeous glow of the entire sky, filling with the most nostalgic scenery in her life.

Time stands still, frogs jump, birds cross the sky.

And she, in love with him.
