Chapter 57 The road is long

"Good, good, good, only child is good, respond to the call of the country," Zhang Fugui said with a smile.

After dinner, Zhang Fugui and Li Jianmei wanted to leave An Yuran, a beautiful girl, for a few days, and they got to know each other, but An Yuran had to go back to work in the county hospital, so they didn't keep her.

An Yuran left Zhangjia Village on the way to Zhang Shaoping, they did not take the rural passenger transport, Zhang Shaoping took An Yuran's little hand and walked slowly on the asphalt road, rape flowers bloomed on both sides of the road, from time to time I would see a few villagers riding motorcycles to greet them.

When Zhang Shaoping and An Yuran walked to the Tianshui River, An Yuran stayed for a while, looked at Shaoping enthusiastically, and said, "By the way, Shaoping, I almost can't remember one thing to tell you." ”

"What's the matter?" Zhang Shaoping said with a smile.

"Shaoping, my dad wants to see you, and my dad already knows about the two of us."

Zhang Shaoping scratched his head and wondered, "How could my uncle know about the two of us?" ”

An Yuran told Zhang Shaoping about Li Xiang's father and son coming to her house to propose marriage, and when she saw that Zhang Shaoping didn't have any reaction, An Yuran said angrily: "Shaoping, you, why didn't you react at all?" Or do you want me to marry Li Xiang? ”

"How, how is it possible," Zhang Shaoping hurriedly explained: "Yuran, don't worry, I will definitely go to see my uncle, but you have to keep me busy for the past few days." ”

An Yuran listened to what Shaoping said, happily closed her mouth, and from time to time she was a little ashamed like a little girl, and the two of them walked to the bus station of Qilong Town with a smile and a smile.

Zhang Shaoping helped An Yuran buy a bus ticket at the ticket office, and after a while, the bus slowly drove over, Shaoping watched intently at Yuran and got on the bus to the county seat, when the bus slowly drove away, An Yuran opened the window and stretched out his head and shouted to Shaoping, "Shaoping, I'm waiting for you, remember to come and see me." ”

After hearing this, Zhang Shaoping beckoned to her, smiled, and said that he would rest assured that he would definitely go to the county seat to see her.

Zhang Shaoping walked out of the bus station of Qilong Town, took a tractor to Zhangjia Village, and the night slowly fell to this silent village, Zhang Shaoping sat on the bed and carefully flipped through the book "Ordinary World" that Yuran bought and gave him, when he read a few pages, all the thoughts of the whole person were attracted by this book.

Zhang Shaoping has read a lot of books, but there is no book that makes him fascinated and lingering, time is always passing in a hurry, Zhang Shaoping does not know how long he has been reading, the dawn is dawn, the sound of chickens in the village is full of the whole village, breaking the silence of the night, and clearing the clouds and mist to see the blue sky.

When he finished reading the book "Ordinary World", the whole person was completely immersed in it, he felt that the experiences in the book were so similar to himself, and even the names of the brothers in the book were the same as him and his brother Zhang Shao'an, but the names of the two brothers in the book were Sun Shaoping and Sun Shao'an, and he was not the same surname.

Although he doesn't have the same surname, he always feels like himself.

Oh, yes! Zhang Shaoping sighed: ""Ordinary World" is fortunate because of its ordinary, it allows an ordinary person to see his future and see the world clearly. An ordinary person, as long as he is willing to work hard, then everything can be achieved, which is also the greatness of "Ordinary World". In the novel, the two brothers of the Sun family, Sun Shaoping and Sun Shaoan, are not just one of the thousands of ordinary people, but the two have realized their ideals through their own efforts. This kind of effort should be said to be a very admirable value, which can make a person live more clearly and be able to know what he wants in this life. ”

After the autumn wind, the crops in the fields have been harvested, the vast wilderness, the grass and trees have withered, and the lush green summer and colorful autumn have become a distant past.

On this day, Zhang Shaoping helped his mother Li Jianmei feed the livestock, so he had time to take a break to go to the county seat, he always remembered what Yuran said to him when he took the bus, because Zhangjia Village was some distance from the county seat, so he had to hurry to ride the dragon town to take the bus.

Before leaving, his mother Li Jianmei told him to let him wash his face and go again, so as not to let others look down on him, but I don't know if it was because he left in too much hurry, so he didn't hear what his mother said.

When he came to the county in disgrace, he bought some drinks and gifts in the department store and supermarket, and went straight to An Yuran's house.

Fortunately, only Yuran is at home alone at this moment, Yuran's father An Guobang has not come back from work, although this is not the first time he has come to An Yuran's house, but he always feels a little restrained.

When An Yuran looked at his sloppy face, he smiled and said, "Shaoping, why is your face so dirty!" Didn't you wash your face? ”

"How, how is it possible," Zhang Shaoping said.

"Don't believe it," An Yuran took a mirror and handed it to Zhang Shaoping.

Shaoping took the mirror and looked at his other self in the mirror, looked a little laughing, and said, "Why is my face so dark!" Why didn't I find out? ”

"It's a good thing, my dad hasn't come back from work yet, otherwise he would have thought there was a miner at home!" An Yuran smiled and set off to get a basin of face washing water, put a snow-white towel in the basin, and smiled at Shaoping: "Quick, come and wash your face!" ”

Zhang Shaoping smiled hesitantly and said, "I won't wash it at all, otherwise I'll have to wash your white towel into a black towel." ”

"Wash quickly, your face is so dark, I'm not afraid that you will wash my white towel into a black towel, what are you afraid of? Quick, wash quickly, wash your face clean, you are more comfortable, Yuran said in a commanding tone.

Zhang Shaoping wet the white towel, twisted the water, and wiped it on his face, and after a while, the snow-white towel turned into a black towel, Zhang Shaoping smiled at Yuran: "Look, this good white towel has become a black towel, but it's a waste, they all said don't let me wash it, but now it's okay, it's all washed into a black towel." ”

"You're embarrassed to say," An Yuran took a piece of soap in his other hand and handed it to Zhang Shaoping while speaking, and said with a smile: "Here, use it to clean the towel for me, otherwise I won't follow it." ”

Zhang Shaoping took the soap, wiped the black shiny towel, and kneaded it vigorously, and after a while, the black towel was kneaded into its original appearance.

Zhang Shaoping handed the kneaded white towel to Yu Ran, Yu Ran picked up the mirror and handed it to Shaoping, and said with a smile: "How about it, it's clean, it's comfortable now!" ”

Zhang Shaoping said happily: "Yes! It's clean, but unfortunately your towel smells of my sweat, I hope you don't mind! ”

"Don't mind, why don't you mind, you can buy me a new one in the future," An Yuran said with a smile.

"Okay, good, good, buy, must buy," Zhang Shaoping said with a smile: "By the way, when will my uncle come back?" “

"Why, you want to see my dad so much," An Yuran said with a smile.

"Think, why don't you want to, when my uncle comes back in a while, I have to nag him well."

An Yuran responded with a smile: "Come on, I don't know about you yet, but don't be scared in a daze when the time comes." ”

Just as Zhang Shaoping and An Yuran were chatting, An Guobang came back, Zhang Shaoping looked at An Guobang and said hello shyly, An Guobang looked at Zhang Shaoping in surprise and said to Yuran: "Yuran, this is your boyfriend Zhang Shaoping!" ”

"Well, Dad, he's my boyfriend Zhang Shaoping."

An Guobang sat on the sofa casually, only to see Zhang Shaoping standing in front of him a little shyly, he gestured with his hand and said, "Shaoping, come and sit, just like in your own home, don't be restrained." ”

Zhang Shaoping shyly walked to An Guobang's side and sat on the sofa, An Yuran went to the kitchen happily to cook alone, when she saw Zhang Shaoping and her father An Guobang talking and laughing through the kitchen window, she couldn't help laughing, after all, this was the first time Zhang Shaoping came to her house as a boyfriend.

An Guobang looked at Zhang Shaoping and said with a smile: "Shaoping, I heard Yuran say that you are now a teacher in Zhangjia Village, aren't you?" ”

"Yes, uncle."

"Yes, yes," An Guobang continued, "Then can you tell your uncle why he gave up the opportunity to develop in the provincial capital?" After all, there are not many college students nowadays, and it is no problem to find a good job, why did you choose to teach in Zhangjiacun instead of teaching in a provincial or county town? ”

"Uncle, what you said is right, but Shaoping I think so, although my brother Shao'an and I are the only college students in the village, but I feel that no matter how far I go, I can't forget my roots, after all, it is this land of hope that raised me, I can contribute to this land, even if I am happy, and then I grew up in the countryside since I was a child, knowing that it is not easy for rural children to study, and now that I have returned from school, it is time to help my hometown and cultivate a group of new blood for my hometown and motherland. New strength, so that they can better build the motherland and their hometown in the future. ”

After hearing this, An Guobang praised again and again, and said to Shaoping with a smile: "Good, good, good, Shaoping, it seems that Yuran is not wrong about you, as the saying goes, you can only become a master if you suffer hardship, and you kid will definitely have a great future in the future." ”

Just as Shaoping and An Guobang were chatting, Yuran had already prepared the meal and carried it to the dining table in the living room.

An Guobang smiled and said to Shaoping: "Shaoping, do you know how to drink?" If you can, you can drink with your uncle. ”

"Uncle, although Shaoping doesn't know how to drink, since my uncle has said it, then I'll accompany my uncle to drink some today."

An Yuran sat next to Zhang Shaoping, did not move his chopsticks, stared at Zhang Shaoping with his eyes, watching him and his father An Guobang drinking wine in a cup and tasting the dishes on the table.

Zhang Shaoping was overwhelmed by alcohol, and after drinking a glass, his head began to feel a little dizzy, An Yuran persuaded him on the side, telling him not to drink if he didn't drink, don't be reckless.

An Guobang sat aside and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Yuran! Don't persuade him, just let him have a few more drinks with his father! Dad is happy today, so it doesn't hurt to have a few more drinks. ”
