Early the next morning, Mei Lan didn't even eat breakfast, and went downstairs with a box, Mei Baoping took Mei Lan's box, saying that he was going to send Mei Lan to the county seat, and by the way, he went to see what the restaurant was decorated.

Mei Lan heard him say this, so she didn't refuse, Deng Hongying pulled Mei Lan to stay for breakfast, but she didn't see Wang Ximei, probably still lying on the bed.

After staying at Deng Jianwen's house for a day, Mei Lan took her luggage to the airport and checked it, there was only a flight to Shanghai that day, and Mei Lan had never been to Shanghai, so she bought a ticket to Shanghai and boarded the plane to Shanghai.

After a week on the Bund in Shanghai, I visited Jing'an Temple, Chenghuang Temple, Yu Garden, and Meilan, the financial district of Pudong, and then to Suzhou, Hangzhou, and of course, to the famous Zhouzhuang and Tongli.

The deepest experience of these places for Mei Lan is that there are many people, but fortunately, Mei Lan is not in a hurry, the first thing she does every time she goes to a place is to see what local scenery and snacks are on the Internet, and she also knows that the local snacks in each city must be in a certain alley, not in a big hotel.

For this reason, Mei Lan specially bought a good camera, which can shoot scenery and snacks, and Mei Lan sorted out a travel log and sent it to her QQ space.

When she was in Hangzhou, Mei Lan saw Sun Lan's reply, saying that there were more snacks in Sichuan, and they were spicy, so she must have an appetite for Mei Lan, so after living in Hangzhou for a week, Mei Lan got on the plane to Chengdu again.

After living in Chengdu for a few days, Mei Lan felt that the life of the people of Chengdu was still relatively leisurely, either a small mahjong table at the door, or a small teapot in the teahouse. The price is not too expensive, Mei Lan wandered around the streets and alleys of Chengdu for a few days, and then got on the bus to Mao County.

This trip is almost all rugged mountain roads, which are more dangerous than the road to Jinggang Mountain, and the time is long, Meilan gets motion sickness all the way, and vomits wildly. After walking for five or six hours, I finally arrived at the county seat of Maoxian. Sun Lan was waiting for her in the county seat.

The first thing Mei Lan said when she saw Sun Lan after getting out of the car was, "I won't come to this place next time I am killed, it's too uncomfortable." ”

"Huh. If you don't say that Shu Road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the sky. Sun Lan took Mei Lan's luggage.

Sun Lan came to pick up Meilan on a motorcycle, and when she left the county seat, the motorcycle went up the mountain road. Looking down, it is the Minjiang River that bends in the curve. I feel dizzy when I look at it; Looking up, there are endless mountains, many of which are half-bare and bare, with only a few low thatched grasses. Some of the mountains have been developed and planted with fruit trees, and the population here is relatively sparse, and often only a few families can be seen halfway up the mountain. According to Sun Lan, most of the people here are Qiang. Many of the villages still have a watchtower in front of them.

While speaking, Sun Lan took Mei Lan into a sheep intestine mountain road, drove up for about ten minutes, and saw a watchtower, Sun Lan stopped under the watchtower, let Mei Lan carefully feel this five- or six-storey building built with stones, stone chips and glutinous rice, after hundreds of years of wind, frost, rain and snow do not fall, not only wind, frost, rain and snow, but also earthquakes.

Beyond the watchtower, less than two minutes into the village, Sun Lan's village is not small, there are one hundred and eighty households, along the hillside in a stepped arrangement, look like a castle, the village houses are also 2 to 3 floors of flat-roofed buildings, the first floor is generally to raise animals, such as cattle and sheep.

Sun Lan's house is in the middle of the village, her house was newly built after the earthquake, the first floor was used to open a supermarket, and a small building was added next to it, the first floor raised livestock, the second floor was used as a kitchen and dining room, and the stairs were outside.

Mei Lan learned that Sun Lan's sister did not take the 200,000 yuan to get married, but went to Chongqing to work again, saying that she wanted to learn some skills outside while she was young, and opened a restaurant by herself in two years, Sun Lan's parents took tens of thousands of yuan to open a small supermarket at home, which was not only convenient for the villagers, but also earned a few pocket money.

Seeing Mei Lan, Sun Lan's mother pulled Mei Lan enthusiastically, and said words of thanks, which made Mei Lan a little embarrassed, Sun Lan saw Mei Lan's embarrassment, pulled her mother and said, "Mom, Mei Lan hasn't eaten yet." ”

"Yes, yes, cook, cook, I'll go, my Lan Lan said that you like to eat yellow eel field chicken, I have prepared it, you can rest assured, it is guaranteed to be wild, and the fish in our river are all caught by our Lan Lan and her father." After Mother Sun finished speaking, she hurried into the small house and was busy.

"Where's your dad?" Mei Lan didn't see Sun Lan's father.

"My dad and my brother went to the orchard, and my grandma went to my aunt's house."

Mei Lan was looking at the two houses of Sun Lan's family when she saw a dark-faced man in his forties carrying a hoe and a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old coming in, carrying a basket of green apples in his hand.

Seeing Mei Lan, Father Sun had a smile on his face, and hurriedly put down his hoe, "You are Lan Lan's classmate, we are in the countryside, there is nothing to entertain you, I can't help you." ”

"Uncle is too polite, our family is also in the mountains, at the foot of Jinggang Mountain." Mei Lan said with a smile.

"Dad, Mei Lan is a good friend of mine, she didn't want to come, saying that she was afraid of disturbing us, so I strongly invited her to come." Sun Lan smiled and took the hoe from her father's hand.

"Second sister, Dad picked a few apples, I've washed them, let's eat them for your classmates." Sun Lan's younger brother, Sun Feng, handed over the basket a little shyly.

"Lan Lan, you accompany your classmates, I'll help your mother cook, and Fengfeng will fetch water." Father Sun commanded.

Sun Feng put down the basket and entered the kitchen, and after a while, he came out with a pair of wooden barrels, Mei Lan was curious about where he went to fetch water, you must know that although the Minjiang River is at the foot of the mountain, but the village is halfway up the mountainside, and it is not easy to carry water from the foot of the mountain.

Sun Lan saw that Mei Lan was curious, so he pulled Mei Lan out of the door, there was a mountain road behind the house up, walked dozens of meters, and heard the sound of rushing water, it turned out to be a small waterfall, the whole village drank water from this small waterfall, encountered the dry season, can only be picked from the mountain.

"The scenery here is good, but the living conditions are really poor." Mei Lan said with emotion.

Although Meijiawan is also in the ravine, but does not live in the middle of the mountainside, the village is in front of the river, every family can also dig wells, and because of the high-speed, now it is much more convenient to go out than before, where is like Sun Lan's house, it takes five or six hours to come from Chengdu, and these five or six hours are in addition to the mountain or the mountain, it feels like the mountain can not go out, this is in ancient times, people here want to go out, it is estimated that it is really difficult to go to the blue sky.

"It's not that difficult, our village is bigger, it's okay, there is a primary school in the village, some villages are far away, you have to climb several mountains every day to go to school, some have to come with torches before dawn, I don't know how difficult it is to miss some books."

Yes, compared to them, Mei Lan really feels that she is very happy, she has books, food to eat, water to drink, and where she wants to play.

"Mei Lan, did something happen to you?" Sun Lan asked.

"No, why do you ask that?"

Mei Lan rarely mentions family matters to others, Anita Mui grew up with Mei Lan in a village, so she knows the roots, but others, Mei Lan never mentions this.

"I guess, you are floating outside alone, I always feel uneasy, I told my mother, my mother asked me to invite you to my house to play, said that our scenery is not bad, there is a lot of game, let me accompany you, my mother said, you must have something difficult to tell others."

Mei Lan listened to it for a long time and didn't speak, she didn't expect that an outsider who had never met before could say such a thing, while the relatives who had been with her for more than ten years would only think of herself when they asked for money and labor.

After Mei Lan arrived in Shanghai, she once received a call from Deng Shuiying, but Mei Lan didn't tell her the truth, only told her that she had returned to Beijing, and Mei Lan didn't have many QQ friends, except for a few classmates in college and high school, the rest was Gu Lei, and even Cai Ganlin didn't add it.

Gu Lei knew that Mei Lan was traveling outside, but he was not in China at this time, he also went to the United States to relax, and also posted a lot of foreign landscape photos in the space, and said that Gu Xue's bone marrow was not suitable for Gu Pu.

"It's nothing, I just like to travel, I didn't have that condition before, I didn't even go to the provincial capital Nanchang before going to university, and now I have money, I want to go to see the big city, if you didn't invite me to Chengdu, I plan to go to Nanjing."

Sun Lan saw that Mei Lan refused to say anything, and this kind of thing was not easy to ask, so she took Mei Lan's hand and said that she would take Mei Lan to see her family's orchard.

Sun Lan's orchard is not big, it is five or six acres of land, half of it is cherries and half is apples, cherries have long been off the market, apples are full of branches, most of them are green, Sun Lan said that it is this variety, the taste is good.

Mei Lan's face was full of pride when she saw Sun Lan talking about their family's orchard, because this orchard was the hard work of his parents, and the family had worked hard for so many years, and now it was finally harvest season.

The meal at Sun's house in the evening was very rich, Sun Lan's mother kept putting vegetables for Mei Lan, of course, she didn't pull down her two children, and asked Mei Lan if Sun Lan was reluctant to eat at school, because her daughter was thin every time she went home.

"Speaking of which, you are really the great benefactor of our family, our Lan Lan said that if there is no you, she said that she would not win the lottery, our Lan Lan, crying and calling us when she got the money, this child is too heavy-hearted, I always feel sorry for her sister, and her sister did not go to college, this is also a helpless thing, her sister said not to blame her, fortunately, our Lan Lan is also angry, is the first female baby in our village to be admitted to Beijing Key University, almost entered Peking University, and we also specially set a day of wine to invite the village people to celebrate."

Sun Lan's mother said while serving Sun Lan vegetables, looking at Sun Lan, her eyes were full of love and pride, as if she was full without eating.

This is the true nature of mothers and daughters. (To be continued) R466
