Chapter 5: The Squirrel in the Middle
"Yes, yes. This is my eldest brother-in-law. With a promise, Yang Dezhu turned back and introduced to the second daughter.
"Hello brother-in-law." Although the second daughter didn't breathe, out of politeness, they all said hello to their eldest brother-in-law.
"Hey, good. You are also a pillar, I said that it was two girls earlier, let's call Shanggenzi to come together. Multiple cars, saving the mountain road. The eldest brother-in-law said.
"It's okay, eldest brother-in-law, you don't have to worry about them, they're here to travel anyway." Yang Dezhu said, ignoring the second daughter, and helped the eldest brother-in-law tie the second daughter's suitcase to the back frame of the off-road motorcycle. Then he said: "Eldest brother-in-law, you go back first, there are vegetables in my bag, and meat, you let the eldest sister help your mother cook." I come to the house for dinner in the evening. β
After the eldest brother-in-law left, Yang Dezhu and the other three suddenly felt relaxed because they had removed the weight on their bodies, and even the two women, who were originally out of breath, became brisk at this time.
The three of them walked for more than twenty minutes chattering, and finally climbed the first mountain. Standing on the ridge and looking forward, you can see in the afterglow of the setting sun that across a smaller mountain, there is a small mountain village of more than 100 families. At this time, the smoke curls in the mountain village, and against the background of the surrounding mountains, it is like a fairyland on earth.
"It's beautiful. Ay? Little boss, that's your home? Liu Qianqian pointed to the mountain village and was stunned for a long time, then turned around and asked. Hearing this, Yu Liya also turned her head to look at Yang Dezhu, waiting for him to answer.
"Yes, my family lives in this village." Yang Dezhu looked at the village and replied with emotion. There was a bit of pride in his voice.
"This place is so beautiful, why is it not famous at all? A place like this should have been developed for tourism a long time ago, right? Liu Qianqian was a little puzzled.
"There were developers who came to see it a few years ago. The interior is all very good. It's just that these two ridges are too much of a hindrance. Whether it is to build a tunnel or repair a mountain road, the amount of work is too large. Developers can't afford it, and the government can't afford it. So that's it. In the past few years, no one has even come to watch it. Yang Dezhu explained.
After looking at the two mountains under her feet and in front of her, Liu Qianqian responded: "Also, the highway has to be repaired through these two ridges, and I am afraid it will not be possible without hundreds of millions of investment." It's too much, indeed. Then there is no other place to build a road? β
"This area, apart from the four mountain passes crossed by two rivers, has been the only way in and out since ancient times. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so far behind. Yang Dezhu told the geography of his hometown, and then sighed. He also has no way to deal with such a poor and backward geographical environment.
"Damn, paradise. Let's go and see it. Liu Qianqian greeted her, and the three of them said a few words, and they also rested, and continued to hurry.
The three of them walked for a while, and when they were halfway down the ridge, there was a sound of a locomotive, and the eldest brother-in-law rushed back on a motorcycle. When he got closer, he turned the front of the car and said, "Pillar, I'll take these two girls back first." You walk slowly. I'll pick you up later. β
"Okay." Yang Dezhu agreed, turned around and said to the second daughter, "You guys go back first on the motorcycle." When I came to my house, my mother was very welcoming. β
"Great, I finally don't have to walk." Liu Qianqian happily got on the motorcycle. Looking back, I saw Yu Liya hesitating with an embarrassed face, and hurriedly said, "Liya, come up quickly?" Just let this kid go on his own. β
"That...... That, why don't you let your eldest brother-in-law take you back first. I'll walk with him a little longer. Otherwise, he wouldn't be interested in it. Yu Liya hesitated for a moment, and actually said so.
"Huh? Are you ......? Forget it, I'm too lazy to care about you. I'm not leaving. Liu Qianqian said unrighteously.
"Then I'll take her back first, and I'll pick you both up later, I'll have to come back anyway." The eldest brother-in-law looked at Yu Liya carefully, and then glanced at Yang Dezhu, who was a little stunned, and said.
"That'll do. Big brother-in-law, don't come back. We'll just go back again, and it's only half an hour to cross the ridge. You go to Shuanghe Bay to help me get a big watermelon and come back, put it in the well to cool it first, just in time to quench my thirst at night. Yang Dezhu came back to his senses and thought for a while.
"Then you can rest assured. But can this girl move around? The baby in the city is tired of walking on the mountain road. The eldest brother-in-law said with concern.
"It's okay, who told her to leave without the car. Let's go back. Yang Dezhu said.
There was a roar of the locomotive, and the eldest brother-in-law drove Liu Qianqian away, Yu Liya retracted her reluctant gaze, and followed Yang Dezhu forward, but looked around a little eagerly.
After two minutes, Yu Liya finally couldn't help but shout: "Hey! β
Yang Dezhu stood still and looked back at Yu Liya questioningly. The heart said that this chick can't walk just now, right? She didn't sit in the car just now. This woman, what a trouble.
After a long time, Yu Liya blushed and whispered like a mosquito: "I want to go to the toilet, I can't hold it anymore, what should I do?" β
"What? ......, big things and small things? β¦β¦ Oh, I forgot, come with me. Yang Dezhu was also a little at a loss, and after leading Yu Liya into a dense bush on the side of the road, he said, "You are here." I'll go out and look out for you. He turned around and went back on his way.
"You're not allowed to peek." Yu Liya shouted from behind the bushes.
"Hurry up. No more nonsense, I'll go over now and let you pee your pants. Yang Dezhu said angrily. Then he whistled angrily.
"Humph! Villain. "Behind the bushes came the resentment of Liya. Then she finally couldn't hold back, and she became frightened.
Yang Dezhu is a young man with strong blood, young and beautiful with the opposite sex behind the bushes, where can he not react. Almost as soon as the sound of convenience sounded, a tent was erected under Yang Dezhu. In order to hide his embarrassment, he had to walk a few more steps, anyway, it was not dark now, and there was no one else on the road before and after.
After Yu Liya finished making it convenient, she was finally refreshed, but her face was also ashamed like a red cloth. The lady of heaven who grew up in this big city, where would she have thought that there would be such an embarrassing day. She felt it when the three of them walked together just now, but she was really embarrassed to have Yang Dezhu there. So when the eldest brother-in-law came to pick up people, she naturally didn't dare to take the car. On this bumpy mountain road, I can't go far, and I guess I have to pee my pants.
Now that it's finally convenient, she doesn't know how to face Yang Dezhu. So she stood behind the bushes for a long time, not daring to go out.
Suddenly, a fluffy thing jumped from the tree on the side, hit Yu Liya's body, and then fell to the ground with a "squeak", jumped a few steps forward, and lay on the ground without moving.
"Mom! Helpβhelpβ" It was only then that Yu Liya reacted and screamed. Then she ran two steps in a panic, but stepped on a rotten tree root and broke her foot again.
Yang Dezhu, who was not too far away, hurriedly jumped over in a few steps, and asked as he ran, "What's wrong?" β
As soon as Yu Liya saw Yang Dezhu, it was like seeing a savior all of a sudden. stood up on one leg and threw himself into Yang Dezhu's arms at once.
Yang Dezhu caught Yu Liya, but was also staggered back by Yu Liya. And Yu Liya in her arms hugged herself tightly at this time, trembling all over, obviously frightened.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. It's okay, I'm here. Tell me, where exactly did you get hurt? Yang Dezhu comforted in a low voice, and then asked. He was most afraid that this chick would be bitten by a snake on her back. If that's the case, it's a problem. At this time, there are naturally no taxis under the ridge. And even if she ran back and rode a motorcycle, she was taken to the county hospital. This time is all wasted, and whether or not you can save this girl depends on luck.
"Here, the tiger pounced on me." In a panic, Yu Liya pointed to her bulging chest.
"Here? Tiger? Yang Dezhu stretched out his hand and gestured in the void, but finally didn't dare to check.
"Gee, it's a hairy thing anyway. You see, it's still there. Yu Liya came back to her senses for a moment, and knew that she was exaggerating, and then pointed to the bottom of the bushes.
Yang Dezhu looked up and saw a golden fluffy thing lying motionless on the grass under the bushes.
"You wait here for me first, I'll take a look." Yang Dezhu let go of Yu Liya's hand and walked in that direction.
"Oh, no, I don't dare." Yu Liya grabbed Yang Dezhu casually and looked at him with a pitiful expression.
"Okay, let's go together and see what it is." Yang Dezhu didn't resist the pitiful and pleading gaze of a beautiful woman, took Yu Liya's hand, and slowly leaned under the bushes. Now Yu Liya is also extremely obedient, obediently following behind, showing her head, and looking forward from time to time.
The distance of more than ten meters, and it took almost five minutes to get closer. Yang Dezhu stared at the furry things on the ground, like a squirrel. Just as he was about to stretch out his hand, the squirrel suddenly jumped more than a meter away and fell to the ground again, as if it was injured.
But the squirrel's action made Yu Liya startled again, and let out a scream and hugged Yang Dezhu from behind.
"Stop! Stop! β¦β¦ Don't bark, it's just a wounded squirrel. Yang Dezhu comforted helplessly, and said that if there was really a tiger, Lao Tzu would have to be killed by your little chick, who didn't know how to run, just knew how to scream, and restricted my movements. This is probably the kind of pig-like teammate that is called.
Yu Liya opened her eyes and looked, sure enough, it was just a squirrel, so she let go of Yang Dezhu. Seeing that Yang Dezhu looked at her with a strange gaze, he quickly protected his chest and took two steps back.
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in you. If I want to rape you, you can't run away in this mountain. Yang Dezhu said jokingly. He stepped forward quickly and picked up the wounded squirrel.
