The mountains are unusually quiet at night. Su Xiaolou's grandfather's house was at the far left end of the entire village, in a col on the steep side of the mountain, and there was a stream below. You can see the mountains in the distance.

Su Xiaolou was handing out fruit candy to a few children who came to play at home. I saw a car light on the winding mountain road in the distance. This road is a cement road specially funded by Juye County, which is quite wide, mostly to curry favor with the Su Ming Dynasty.

In this era, it was still very poor, and it was simply polarized outside the mountains, and it was impossible to afford a car, maybe it was a relative, but he knew the surrounding villagers and fathers, and he felt that it was impossible.

Not long after, a GAC Toyota SUV stopped in the open space below. The children curiously gathered around to look, boldly touched the car with their hands, and ran away.

Su Wanyun got out of the car, took out a lot of candy and biscuits, and walked up after they were finished.

Su Xiaolou was a little surprised, how could she know that she came back to see her grandparents.

It was still hot, so grandpa pulled a light bulb outside and set it on the table. Grandma started to serve the food, and it was hearty.

For Su Wanyun, Su Wanli and Zhou Xiulan are not as affectionate as Su Xiaolou, but they definitely like it. It's just a patriarchal concept.

He had heard his mother say that she gave birth to Su Wanyun as a girl, and she was not ready to give birth. My grandparents were depressed and sick and stayed in the hospital for several months. Su Mingchao and Xiao Hui were scolded very badly by the second elder, and they were a little afraid to come back. If it weren't for the adoption of Su Xiaolou, I don't know what would have happened.

Don't look at Su Wanyun's gentleness and kindness to Su Xiaolou, in fact, she has a very cold temperament and has very few words, which is a bit like Su Wanli. So she basically didn't speak at the dinner table, but Su Xiaolou was so spicy that sweat came out because of eating chili peppers, so she would wipe it for him, and doting on him was not very talkative.

Grandpa will care more about his studies, grandma will care more about whether he is healthy, whether he is doing well, whether Xiao Hui is still beating him and so on.

When a family sits around a table, talking and laughing, they forget all their worries and are better than everything.

His old room is still the same, and the walls are covered with certificates from elementary school and big red flowers. The table was filled with many wooden figures, people from the water margin made of bamboo, and kites were flying in the corner. It was all spotlessly clean. Lying in bed, it was that familiar feeling again.

Grandma walked in with a blanket and said, "It's a little cold at night." Try covering it and getting another bed if it's cold. ”

Su Xiaolou got into the quilt and felt very warm, so he shook his head, "It's not cold." ”

Grandma stroked his forehead, "Pay attention to the ladder when you wake up at night, there is a broken piece." ”

"Got it, Grandma. You should go to bed early, too. ”

The night was so quiet that you could hear the beating of your heart. Look at the light mist under the moonlight. As the unknown bird streaked across the moonlight, the call of a partridge could be heard in the distance. He placed his pillow on the window, rested his chin on it, and looked at the mysterious world outside, his mind drifting away.

The door opened again, but it was Su Wanyun. She slipped up to him at once, wrapped the blanket tightly, rested her head on his shoulder, her long hair scattered everywhere.

"Sister, why did you come here?"

"There seem to be rats in the room, sister is afraid."

"Oh!"

The two fell silent again.

"Brother."

"Well, what?"

She shook her head, and a thin, white and flawless hand reached out and rested it on his chest.

"I slept." She said.

In fact, he thought, they were all so old, although only occasionally, it was not normal to sleep together. It's just, it's not just anymore.

Early the next morning.

"Sixth brother, when did you come back?"

Su Xiaolou was brushing his teeth at the door, and a dark peer asked in surprise.

"Muzi?" He said uncertainly.

"That's right. Sixth brother hasn't seen you for so many years, you have grown strong. "A rustic teenager. He said that when he was young, he was not in good health.

The close playmate of childhood, who has not been seen for many years, has changed dramatically.

"Sit at home."

Muzi was also not polite, and greeted a few companions who were waiting for him.

"What are you going to do here?" Su Xiaolou saw that they were holding a few bags of things.

"I went to the third uncle's house to borrow a fishing net and prepared to go fishing in the lake."

Su Xiaolou's eyes lit up, "Is there a boat?" When he was a child, he always wanted to follow his uncles and uncles to fish in Tianze Lake, but his grandmother was worried about his safety and never let him go.

"Absolutely. Dangdang's father built a new big wooden boat, and he said that he would lend it to us for two days to try to make it easy. ”

Su Xiaolou moved a few stools to the cement clearing outside. Su Wanyun poured a glass of water for each of them, perhaps because she saw such a beautiful urban beauty, and they all looked shy and restrained. Only Muzi smiled generously and said, "Thank you, Sister Yun." ”

"What about dangdang? Why didn't he come with you? ”

"Uncle Da Kui told him and Fuquan to cut down a tree, it should be coming soon."

He continued, "Tell me about you, how are you doing in the city?" ”

It can be seen that he still yearns for the city.

Before he could say anything, a muffled voice was in the period of voice change, "Sixth brother! "But it was a tall and big boy, with a burly figure and an honest face, too strange.

As he spoke, he gave him a bear hug, and saw him with a blank face, "Fuquan, what's wrong, you won't forget me, right?" ”

Su Xiaolou was stunned, and then he saw that he still had the traces of the bear child back then.

"How come, you kid has changed so much!"

At this time, Su Wanli didn't know when he came back.

"Grandpa!" Everyone said respectfully.

Su Wanli took a pot of melon seeds and put them in the middle, so that everyone had a pastime on their mouths. He was smiling, and he still had the big smoking gun hanging from his waist.

"A few paw babies, who don't study well, make all this mess all day long."

"Grandpa, we are not the sixth brother, he is the one in the sky...... What's ......?"

Seeing that he was stuck, the friends laughed.

"Wenqu Xing." A partner reminds next to you.

"Yes, Wenquxing."

"As far as you kid will say." Su Wanli was very happy.

A tall and thin teenager, vaguely still has the appearance of the year. Su Xiaolou clenched his fist and raised it, when he was stunned for a moment, he also clenched his fist and touched it, "Sixth brother is back!" ”

He nodded, and in an instant he threw away a lot of strangeness. He was a city man, and they probably thought he was unattainable, but they had nothing but awe for him. He didn't want that, he was happy to see his childhood playmate.

Maybe they behave vulgarly, these are just two different connotations in the two environments, no one has the right to look down on anyone, they are all the same as him, their hearts are kind, but the environment chooses to express differently.

Tianze Lake is a natural lake in the mountains, because there is no access to the road, few people know about it, let alone pollution, it is very clean.

Since the surrounding villages worship the gods of the lake, the surrounding forests are still well preserved despite the need for arable land in the following decades. You can even see cedar trees that are hundreds of years old. The huge body of the tree can't be enclosed by seven or eight.

When she came, her grandmother Zhou Xiulan was really not at ease, so she still said: "We all know water." And the sixth brother never runs around, with us watching, I promise nothing will happen. ”

Zhou Xiulan looked at her grandson with anticipation, several children have good water quality, and she also knows it. I couldn't bear to let me go, and finally told a few people to let me go.

The boat stopped at Shentang Bay, where is the only base camp of the fishermen in Tianze Lake, and more than a dozen slipways were built with huge logs, as well as more than a dozen ancient green tile pavilions. There is a family at the top point. More than a dozen peasant fishermen gathered there to play cards and rest.

Dangdang's father has already pushed the boat into the water, and the little old man guarding the boat lives in the master's house above. Usually, when the fisherman harvests, he will give a few fish to his family, perhaps in return, the old man will watch the boat and fishing nets for everyone.

"Dangdang, a few days after your father's new ship is closed, can you sail out?" The little old man was afraid that the boat was not yet secure, and the children did not know what danger was in danger.

"Master Sheng, don't worry. My dad told us to try it out in the water. ”

Only then did the little old man hand over the boat to them.

The new ship has not yet been painted, and there is a smell of cedar trees. The boat is larger than the usual boat because it uses diesel-powered water jet propulsion instead of human rowing.

It may be that there are more aquatic plants in the shallow part of Tianze Lake, and there are no more efficient propellers. Because the water thruster is called a pumping machine, it is a little more appropriate, but the inlet and outlet are in the water.
