23 Friend or Foe?

Coming out of Da'an, Wei Gospel copied a path, brushed aside the messy weeds on both sides, revealing a wet saline-alkali land, covered with a layer of crystal white powder, with rows of deep footprints in front of him, and walking along the footprints, there was a sparkling fish pond.

Da'an District is surrounded by weeds and untended, and the barren saline land is particularly luxuriant, and a small river that flows east-west divides the area in two, south of the river is a large and vibrant and expanding city, and north of the river is a slum of outsiders, who are clearly not accepted by the locals.

Wei Gospel regretted as he walked, always feeling that he didn't play well just now, and wanted to turn back to Yang Longfei to quarrel again.

The sun is bright, the thin clouds are fixed in the sky, Wei Gospel is bored and walks around the fish pond, the dark green pool water is blown by the wind, the surroundings are bare, this pond has been abandoned for several years, it looks lifeless, the loess on the shore is swept to the sky by the wind, when Wei Gospel is in a bad mood, he will go around the pond in a circle, a circle down, the mood is immediately relaxed, and when he is about to return the same way, he saw a young man coming from afar, With a bright smile on the corner of his mouth, he ran and beckoned, and the two villains who followed him were elated.

After a while, Yang Longfei stood in front of her triumphantly.

Wei Gospel looked at him expressionlessly.

"See you again." Yang Longfei smiled in his eyes, and when he saw that Wei Gospel didn't speak, he said reluctantly: "Are you not happy to see me?"

Wei Gospel bit her lip, she had never seen such a thick-skinned person, as if the half-dead person who had angry her just now was not him, she glared at him angrily, her eyes were facing each other, and a kind of affection was intertwined in the slightly blowing wind!

Yang Longfei smiled.

Wei Gospel rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I said, you are really strange, you made me half angry just now, and now you are like no one, what kind of person are you." ”

"Did I you off, why don't I remember?" Yang Longfei scratched the back of his head and said thoughtfully: "Haha, it's okay, I don't hold grudges."

Wei Gospel couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "Hey, I said, you made me angry, what kind of grudge do you remember."

Yang Longfei smiled.

"Second sister." Wei Siguo ran over out of breath, Wei Gospel turned to look at him, and said, "Why are you here too?" ”

This sentence was said to Wei Siguo, but Yang Longfei didn't see it at all, and interjected: "Aren't you curious, how did I escape?"

Wei Gospel pressed the brim of his hat low, the anger in his heart had not subsided, and he didn't want to pay attention to him, Yang Longfei didn't seem to plan to apologize for his gaffe.

Wei Siguo didn't have the eyesight to see, and said with his hands dancing: "Second sister, Yang Dake is smart, he used a wrench, pliers, and a screwdriver, adding up, and bent the iron fence and drilled out of the window, and when we went back, we planned to drill back from the window, and then restore the iron fence to its original state, without knowing it, so that his parents would not find it."

Wei Gospel felt angry and funny, such a strange method could only be thought of by Yang Longfei's head, in order to escape, he really took great pains.

"Have fun, I'm going back."

Yang Longfei was surprised: "We just came, and you are leaving?"

Wei Gospel said coldly: "Yes, you don't want to see me anyway, don't you, it's exactly what you want."

"Who said I didn't want to see you anymore." Yang Longfei stretched out his arm and blocked in front of her, and his tone was much more tactful, "It's because you don't want to see me." ”

"No......," Wei Gospel said.

"Really!"

"What are you lying to!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, smiling at each other.

"What are you doing here?" Yang Longfei looked at the water, seemed to think of something interesting, and asked, "Do you want to go into the water to fish?"

Wei Gospel glanced at him, he couldn't give him a good face, and he began to get carried away again.

After a pause, he said, "This used to be my family's fish pond, and I have lived here for eleven years."

She turned and pointed to a clearing not far from the fish pond, the ground was dusty, and the clearing was obviously much stronger and smoother than the surrounding soil, which should be the result of heavy objects pressing on it for many years, but there was a dilapidated tin house there, and now only an empty piece of loess remained.

Wei Gospel said: "There used to be a green tin house there, and my family used to live in a tin house, but then we moved to Da'an, and the tin house was smashed by my father and sold as scrap iron."

Yang Longfei looked at her, his eyes suddenly became gentle, and he thought: She must be a very quiet person, a person who can endure loneliness, somehow, when he meets such a person, he just wants to be gentle.

Wei Gospel smiled: "When I was a child, my family lived next to the fish pond, and my mother built a shed here, and sat under the shed in the summer to enjoy the shade, and now I miss that time."

Yang Longfei stretched out his fingers, stayed in her hair for a moment, brushed off the dry grass that the wind blew on her hair, and stared at her intently, as if he thought that her experiences were very attractive, and their relationship was very delicate, but Wei Gospel couldn't help but think: He is sometimes so gentle that people can't get annoying.

"When I was a kid, my mom was always worried that the four of us would fall into the fish pond and drown, so she wouldn't let us go near the shore, and I almost drowned once." Wei Gospel giggled, as if he was telling someone else's story.

"What's going on?"

"The four of us took advantage of my parents' absence, so we secretly ran to the fish pond to swim, I was sitting in the shallow water not far from the shore, and then somehow, along the mud under my feet to the depth of the fish pond, before I knew that the water had gone over my head, I saw the impurities in the water floating in front of my eyes, choking on a mouthful of water in my nose, hahahaha, I was not tall at that time."

"Are you scared?"

"Don't be afraid." Wei Gospel said with a smile.

"And then!"

"What's the future, haha, I didn't drown, didn't I just stand here!"

"How did you get up?"

"My sister fished me up, she's a lot taller than me."

Yang Longfei breathed a long sigh of relief, touched her head pityingly, and said thoughtfully: "I have to thank your sister well."

He paused for a moment, with a faint desolation between the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and muttered, "Otherwise...... Otherwise......"

Wei Gospel laughed, guessed what he wanted to say, and said with a smile: "Or what...... Do you want to say, 'Otherwise, you won't see me', hahahaha, I'm sorry, I didn't think so. ”

Yang Longfei said seriously: "Otherwise, I won't be able to see you."

Wei Gospel froze for a while, hearing his sweet voice hovering overhead, he was a little stunned for a while, thinking that he was just making fun of her as naughtily as usual, casually talking nonsense, she took a step back, deliberately avoiding his sight, his eyebrows and eyes were exceptionally good-looking in the bright sun, if he didn't know his character as a gentleman, she would believe what he said, but, maybe he just said casually, she was thinking too much, if he was serious just now, it was really a sultry love sentence.

Wei Gospel smiled slightly and shook his head.

The breeze blew and rippled on the water, Yang Longfei seemed to be in a very good mood, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Then why doesn't your family raise fish?"

Wei Gospel looked at the sparkling water surface and said: "I don't know, it seems to be because the water quality is not good, it hasn't rained for a few years, the salinity of the water in the fish pond is too high, there is no fresh water around, many fish are dead, once I was particularly impressed, one morning, I pushed open the gate, I saw a layer of white flowers floating on the whole pond, I thought it was the foam in the water, I walked in and looked, it was all dead fish, the fish belly was facing up, floating motionless on the water, it was fine last night, and it was all dead early the next morning, My dad squatted by the pond and sighed, and after that, my family stopped raising fish. ”

"What kind of fish did you have in the past?"

"There are many varieties, including silver carp, grass carp, crucian carp...... I can't remember the specifics, but when I was young, I followed my father, and he took a net around the fish pond to catch the fish that floated up from the water and put them on the shore, and the next morning, the pond was full of white flowers, and all four of us children were too scared to speak. ”

"Then you must have had a hard time." Yang Longfei said.

"Actually, I didn't feel very bitter, I was very happy with my parents, but I didn't have money at home, I couldn't pay the book fees, and I was always scolded by the teacher." Wei Gospel grinned, it seemed that he had talked to him a lot today.
