Chapter 31: Night
Qiu Bai trembled and climbed up the ladder, the aluminum ladder made him feel very insecure, even if there was Orange Cheng there to support him underneath.
As soon as I reached the top, I heard the shouting below: "Come down, you come down quickly." ”
"Huh? There's something wrong with you. Qiubai was a little angry, just climbed up and called down, and looked down, Zhao Qingcheng lowered his head, his hands kept shaking, and he didn't know what he was doing, and the center of gravity of the herringbone ladder was unstable all of a sudden.
"Hold on, what are you doing, hold on, it's over, next Olympics."
The three-meter-high ladder fell, fortunately, Qiu Bai's skills were okay, and he rolled around on the spot when he fell from above, although his body hurt from falling, but it was not a big deal, but the mood can be imagined, after getting up, he looked at Orange Orange with a tiger face.
"You haven't eaten at noon, have you? So a big person can't hold a ladder steadily? "Qiubai is really hot.
Zhao Qingcheng raised his head, his face was red, and he didn't know if it was hot or what, and his anger was even greater than Qiu Bai: "Can I be blamed for this?" ”
"If you don't blame me?" Qiu Bai was so angry that he laughed.
"Look at your pants for yourself." Zhao Qingcheng's face turned even redder and twisted his face to the side.
"How's my pants pulling?" Qiubai took a look, very loose big pants, it's very cool to wear this, and you have to wear it like this for work.
Just wanted to say this, Qiu Bai suddenly came back to his senses, and his old face blushed, "Ahem, this is really my fault, I'll go back and change my pants and come again." "Qiubai has never felt so ashamed, he has lost his life, and everything has been looked at.
changed into a pair of trousers, and when he walked out, Orange Orange's face had returned to normal, and Qiubai acted as if nothing had happened.
Then it went quite smoothly, one escalator and one wire wrapped, and when the eighteen bamboos were wrapped, Qiubai tried it after connecting the light bulbs, and the eighteen light bulbs were bright.
"Brother, when the creeper grows up in the future, it must be quite beautiful to turn on the lights at night." Orange Orange's face showed longing.
"Well, that's what I plan, if I don't get a better place to live, it's worthy of myself." Qiu Bai felt a little weird in his heart, because of the name of Orange Orange, one Qiu brother and one brother, the two seem to be similar, but the intimate taste is different.
"Sister will be blessed in the future."
"Didn't you call me Brother Qiu at the beginning, and call Ning Yan Sister You? Why did you change your name again? Qiubai asked.
"It's familiar, let's be considered comrades-in-arms now, what's wrong, you still don't want to?"
"It's a good idea."
Orange Orange shaved his face: "The skin is so thick." ”
Look at the sky, it's half past six, and the sun is about to set.
"Can you still work?"
"What's the other work?"
"Help pick up the tiles on the house."
"Brother, you're really welcome, let me have a beautiful woman pick up the tiles on the house? It's a shame that you can think of it. ”
"I didn't let you go up to the house, just pick up the tiles below."
This day is the most tired day after Qiubai came back, picking up tiles until eight o'clock, tired and sore back, although Zhao Qingcheng made a gray face, it looks more than Qiubai's spiritual head, which makes Qiubai amazed, this girl is born to do farm work.
It's not very difficult to pick up tiles, it's easier to get started, Qiubai hasn't picked it up before, this time it's hard to get on, and I think it's very simple after getting it, in fact, most things are like this, as long as you do it yourself, you will find that things are easier than you imagined.
The disgraced two went back to the house, holding a large handful of peanuts in their hands, which was Mrs. Chen's thanks, although she was tired to death, she was psychologically happy.
"Brother, I found you to be great." Zhao Qingcheng chewed peanuts, and what he said was naturally to help Aunt Chen for free.
"Found positive energy in my brother?" Qiu Bai said proudly.
"It's better if you brag less."
Bathing, cooking, eating, and working until ten o'clock, when Qiubai came out after washing the dishes, Zhao Qingcheng moved a stool and sat in the dam, holding his head to look at the mosquito catcher, Qiubai walked over.
Orange Orange's clothes are all washed, wearing autumn white shirts and pants, very ordinary men's clothes to wear on her other taste, I have to say, tall women wear anything better than handover.
"What's wrong? Orange orange. ”
"The mosquito trap grass has grown taller again." Orange looked back and smiled, "It's amazing, you know what?" In the past, when I listened to my mentor talk about the Lost Century, I would think about what kind of era this era was, and what happened in the end, so that these huge creatures were drowned in the long river of history, and I also thought about how happy it would be if I could see it, so thank you, brother. ”
"Well, let's not sensationalize that, okay? I'm still thinking about where I'm going to sleep tonight, you say you're a sad girl, how good it is to go to a hotel, you have to make some fun here with me, I can tell you, there are many mosquitoes in the countryside, don't be bitten all over the head when you want, you can't find a place to cry. ”
"Haha, your joke isn't funny at all, and there are mosquitoes here? They have all eaten it, brother, why don't you sleep outside here at night? I heard that because the weather is too hot in summer, people in the countryside spread mats outside. ”
"Which rural man did you listen to?" Qiubai wondered: "Sleeping outside at night, there are so many mosquitoes that you can't drive them away, even if you light mosquito coils, you think every rural person has mosquito catching grass at home?" And now it's all fans and air conditioners, just turn on when it's hot, why bother looking for that sin. ”
"That's not someone else's house, we have mosquito trapping grass in our house."
"Don't, we'll do it."
"You're so boring, don't care, I'll sleep outside tonight anyway." Zhao Qingcheng played a scoundrel: "How boring it is to sleep in the house, you look at the stars in the sky, how dazzling, where can you see the stars in the city, they are all extinct." ”
Qiubai can only shake her head, this girl looks like a baby who grew up in the city, and she has never been to the countryside, in fact, even if people in the city want to see the stars, it is simple, find a roof and look at the suburbs, the stars in the city are not exactly the same as those in the countryside.
However, considering that there were black eyebrows in the house, for fear of scaring this girl, Qiubai finally agreed, and worked hard to move the mattress out and let Zhao Qingcheng sleep on the mattress, of course Qiubai can only sleep outside, it doesn't matter if there is no mattress, Qiubai has other ways.
Qiubai has a bench at home, and he has moved all four of them out, and the mat is spread on it, which is a simple bed, and he can sleep all night.
The countryside is actually quite lively at night, especially in summer, when the frogs and toads in the fields croak, the sound is very loud, and then there are all kinds of unknown insects and birds, one after another, forming the night of the countryside.
"Brother, did you sleep?"
"What?"
"I can't sleep."
"Then you count the stars, there are just in the sky, and when you finish counting, you can fall asleep." Qiubai is sleepy.
"I'm done counting the stars, but I still can't sleep."
"Then count again"
Zhao Qingcheng sat up suddenly: "Brother, why don't we catch frogs?" ”
"Sick" Qiubai is so sleepy that he is dying, where is there that kind of leisure to catch frogs, he is not idle and painful.
"Brother" Zhao Qingcheng stretched out his voice.
"I said, girl, what are you going to do? It's almost twelve o'clock, and even the people in the city should be asleep, right? Besides, this is a rural area, and I have done a lot of work today, don't toss my old bones, if you really want to catch frogs, wait until the evening when you are not busy. ”
"No, I have to go back tomorrow, I don't know when I will come again, today I still help you with the ladder, and also help you pick up the tile, when did I do this kind of work, now you can't meet this little request? It's chilling. ”
Qiubai stared at the sky, his heart was speechless, and he got up silently and walked towards the house.
"Brother, what are you going to do?"
"Nonsense, don't you want to catch frogs?"
"Ah, yes, brother, you're so nice."
"What a fart."
