Chapter 170: Climbing the Hill
Li Xiangyu suddenly appeared in Yangjiawan sweating profusely, several tiled houses were low but kind, and the newly built processing room on the side made the sound of "booming" motors. A flock of chicks followed the mother chicken in search of foodβsome broken rice or bran on the slate.
"Xiang Yu? Is it Xiangyu? "Shufenniang was feeding silkworms in the hall, and as soon as she looked up, she recognized this person from the city.
"Aunt Wu, I'm Xiangyu, do you remember me?"
"Remember, remember, come in and sit, the sun is so big, when will it come? I didn't hear Shufen say anything. Aunt Wu came out and led Xiang Yu to the house. The motor, which had just stopped for a while, started again.
"Noisy, sit down!" Aunt Wu took off the thermos bottle from the cabinet, and when she got a cup, she opened it in a cool white.
"Thank you, Auntie, that's the processing room that Shufen said in the letter, right?" Xiang Yu pointed to the tile shed not far away, "What about Shufen?" Is it inside? β
"No, she went up the mountain."
"Tree farm?"
"Yes, this doll knows everything!" Aunt Wu sat down and looked at Xiang Yu. This daughter is so white, it seems that it is better for the people in the city not to bask in the sun. This time it looks much more pleasing to the eye than the last time, the hair is no longer curly and yellow, and the dress is also decent.
Hey, it's really like a female cadre in a TV series! If she really gets along with Fushun, there's nothing wrong with that. It's just that she knows that Fushun's doll is not playing friends at all now.
"Well, Shufen and I have been writing letters!" Xiang Yu grabbed a silkworm from the dustpan and put it in the palm of her hand to let it crawl, the itchy feeling made her both comfortable and a little scared.
"I'll go cook, and when your uncle's machine stops, he will call the people on the other side of the mountain to call Shufen and Guangwen back for dinner!" Aunt Wu got up and put the silkworm dustpan on the silkworm rack, "Turn on the TV and watch!" She proudly pointed to a black-and-white television set.
"Don't look at it, Auntie, shall I go to the mountain and call them?" Xiang Yu got up and was about to leave.
"Don't go, it's so sunny, it's tanned!"
"It's fine. When I go to work, I often run to the construction site. How do you tell me how to go? β
"From the pear orchard, there is a path behind the bamboo forest, Guangwen built it a few days ago, and it should be easy to walk on a sunny day. Just one road, walk to the mountain and see the forest farm! β
"Good!" Xiang Yu took out a parasol and a small folding fan from his backpack and went out. The roar of the processing room continued, and people came in and out one after another, and she went in to say hello to Uncle Yang Zegui. The cacophony of machinery made her uncomfortable. Maybe Yang Laosi hasn't recognized who this is, and Xiang Yu has disappeared.
Xiang Yu and Shu Fen have always maintained correspondence, and the two have become friends who almost talk about everything. In the letter, she learned that almost all of the forest farms contracted by Shufen were managed by Guangwen, and the infatuated Wang Guangwen had planned to build a house for Shufen on the mountain, and he had moved to Shiqiao for Shufen and became a people's teacher who was half a worker and half a farmer.
Yantai Mountain is not high, although the road has been slightly widened and stoned, but for Xiang Yu, who grew up in the city. It's still too dangerous. Xiang Yu's umbrella has almost become a burden, and the pines and cypresses on both sides have become natural parasols, but they can't hide the high temperature of the scorching sun.
She almost took a step to rest for a while, looking at Yantai Mountain, which was much lower than Hulong Mountain, but she couldn't finish climbing it, and she couldn't see the end for a long time.
She looked at the time, and it took nearly an hour to finally see the green orange orchard. You must know that this road is only about twenty minutes for Shufen.
"Wang! Barking! Rhubarb sniffed out the stranger and warned the alien "intruder".
Xiang Yu had no choice but to stop where he was. She wanted to run away. But looking at the way back, she didn't have the strength to run anymore. "Shufen, Guangwen......" she shouted almost with a cry as she waved the umbrella in her hand.
"What are you doing?" The old man Yang Zefu heard the alarm of his "teammates". Rushed to the scene as soon as possible. He looked at the girl he had met somewhere, and did not pick up his shotgun.
"Uncle, is Yang Shufen here?" Xiang Yu finally saw the individual. When the yellow dog saw his master coming, he immediately relaxed his vigilance and lay on the ground and stuck out his tongue.
"I'm the third uncle, not the uncle!" Yang Zefu corrected. He knew that his correction was futile, because Wang Guangwen, this kid, was also called "rich uncle, rich uncle". "Which one are you? What are you looking for her to do? β
"Third uncle, I am Shufen's friend, my name is Li Xiangyu. I'm coming to see her orchard! β
"Friends? Hello friends, our friends are all over the world! Rhubarb, in the past, this was Shufen's friend, that was our friend! I'll take you over......" Rhubarb hid in the shade with his tail between his legs, and Yang Zefu then shouted: "Shufen, you have friends to come to see you!" β
Xiang Yu walked the mountain road all morning, and coupled with this life-threatening path, his legs were so sore that he couldn't stand up.
However, the lush orchard soon made her forget about the pain in her legs, and the green, palm-sized orange leaves gave off a faint fragrance; The branches of the orange trees are intertwined, shuttling between them as if in a painting; The sun shines through the branches and leaves on the grass, and the green grass is greedily enjoying the little dappled light; Under some trees, beans and cucumbers are planted, and the vines are wrapped around the trunks and hung with attractive fruits......
Xiang Yu must not have imagined that a few months ago, the branches of the trees here were still bare, and the weeds at that time were no longer waistless.
There were a few pools scattered around the garden, and it seemed that they had just been repaired, and there were still one or two toads floating on the turquoise water. Guangwen was scooping water into a bucket by a pool, and Shufen was weeding not far away.
"Shufen, quick, a good friend is coming to play with you!" Uncle Fu led Xiang Yu over and sang the high-pitched revolutionary song "Patrol" again.
"Sister Xiangyu? Oh my God, why are you here? Shufen hurriedly put down the hoe and danced excitedly, "What time did you come?" Tired of it, right? β
"Shufen! You're hard to find this place! Xiang Yu was also excited, Shufen was like being reborn, the whole person was cheerful, and the face under the wig, except for a little scar, was still so beautiful.
Shufen forgot about the mud on her hands, but Xiangyu felt kind because of Shufen's rough hands. The two girls clasped their hands together and smiled on their faces.
Guangwen also put down the bucket and came over to welcome friends from afar. He put an old towel on his shoulder, wore a torn sweatshirt, and every part of his exposed skin was dark and shiny, where could he see a little teacher's appearance?
"Li Xiangyu, haha, Shufen talks about you every day, and finally talks about you! Look at you, you're still that virtuous! β
"Haha, I haven't changed, but you've become unrecognizable, black and swarthy, you said you were a teacher and no one believed you!"
"Hey, don't believe me? Go and see the other two teachers in our school, who are darker than me! β
The three of them burst out laughing.
"Sister Xiangyu, are you tired? Go over there and have a saliva! Shufen pulled Xiangyu to the hut, and Guangwen followed.
"Xiangyu, are you here for a meeting or something? How can you come here in time, you should be very busy! Guangwen asked.
"Don't do anything, just come and see you!" Xiang Yu looked back at Guangwen, her bare feet were full of mud, and she laughed.
"Guangwen, you shouted at your mother on the edge of the cliff, and said that we won't go back to eat at noon, Sister Xiangyu is too tired today, I'll go back and boil some porridge, and then go home to eat at night! You have classes in the afternoon! β
Hearing Shufen's words, Xiang Yu remembered that she had climbed the mountain to call them back for dinner. But Shufen's considerate arrangement made Xiang Yu feel better, and she also wanted to go to Guangwen's school in the afternoon to have a look!
She grabbed a cucumber in her hand, chewed it in her mouth, and kept it cool until her heart, which was more "comfortable" than the popsicle!
"Second uncle, second uncle......" Guangwen's call on the edge of the cliff was loud and clear.
"Hey......"
"Shufen and we won't go back to eat at noon, you and my aunt will talk!"
"Yes! The third sister-in-law ......, "There was an echo from the other side of the mountain, and Guangwen's words were repeated.
Xiang Yu is addicted to this traditional method of communication, like an intoxicating song, so beautiful that it makes people dizzy...... (To be continued.) )
