Chapter 44: Ordinary Life
After the children got up, the yard began to be lively, lively, and after breakfast, everyone was about to set off to climb the mountain.
Seeing Zhang Shuqiu reluctantly saying goodbye to her three children, hugging this and kissing that, her eyes exuded a rich soft light, Ning Ye imagined that one day in the future, she would also become a mother, and the home should be warm every day.
Zhang Shuqiu was reluctant, Ning Ye couldn't help but quietly approached and asked, "I like children very much?" ”
"yes, I like it." Zhang Shuqiu's eyes followed the car away, and replied casually.
"So, give birth to one yourself?" Ning Ye smiled brightly.
Zhang Shuqiu turned his head and glanced at Ning Ye as if he was coquettish, and turned his head into the courtyard. Ning Ye caught up and took her hand and said, "Do you have any arrangements for today?" ”
"Originally, there were, but we can do it again tomorrow." Zhang Shuqiu replied lightly.
Ning Ye was overjoyed: "Then you go out with me?" ”
"What are your plans?"
"I have to buy a car first, and I'm going to Yundong County soon, which is inconvenient."
"We have a car at home, if the eldest young master doesn't dislike it, take it and use it."
"Although your soft rice tastes delicious, your car is too good to be suitable." Ning Ye blinked and smiled.
"Ha, I'm really disgusted, okay, what car are you going to buy?"
"I just want to buy something practical, unassuming, and in line with my identity."
"You young master, the requirements are quite low, and there should be a lot of people who meet your requirements. What are you going to do after buying a car? ”
"After buying a car and going to fall in love, okay?" Ning Sansui asked while holding Zhang Shuqiu's hand and swaying.
Zhang Shuqiu smiled at the corner of his mouth, but he didn't want to answer his words, he just walked into the house quickly, and Ning Ye followed behind and asked, "Okay?" ”
"I wonder which one is you? You are like this, tsk......" Zhang Shuqiu looked at Ning Ye and shook his head while laughing.
"What can I do, if you don't coquettish with me, you can only change me to be coquettish with you. Why don't you be a coquettish with me? Ning Ye's eyes lit up with hope.
"Let's go, let's go, if you want to go out, hurry up, don't delay the second aunt to clean up the house." Zhang Shuqiu shook his head and said.
Although there is love and water, as long as they are together, they are happy everywhere, but in the end, there are many people everywhere on the weekend. After buying a car and having a meal, the two of them really didn't know where to go, so they simply bought two movie tickets and watched a movie.
Zhang Shuqiu sat in the movie theater and began to doze off, Ning Ye looked at her and nodded, like a chicken pecking rice, and wanted to laugh. As a result, she slept, and he used her as a pillow.
On the way back, Zhang Shuqiu rubbed his temples and said, "Do you feel old, I really can't stand so many people squeezing around, and I have a headache." ”
"How long has it been since you've been out to the movies?" Ning Ye asked as he drove.
"Ha, I think about it, it was really a day. Listening to your tone, it seems like you often have time to go out and watch movies. ”
"We are all old, not suitable for noisy, only suitable for two people to fall in love quietly."
"It should be that we are all old and no longer suitable for love."
"That's right, I don't want to talk about it, why don't you just get married, while I still have a few days off, I'll go home and get the household registration book, and let's go and register......" Ning Ye became more and more excited the more he spoke, turned his head to take a look, and found Zhang Shuqiu squinting at him, and continued: "Why don't you bring the household registration book and go to the capital with me to register......
Zhang Shuqiu didn't answer him at all, just shook his head with a smile, and Ning Ye continued to talk to himself: "It seems to be a little too fast, Comrade Zhang Shuqiu's inspection period for Comrade Ning Ye has not yet passed, so let's continue to investigate." ”
"When are you going to Yundong?" Zhang Shuqiu simply changed the topic and asked.
"What? Want to come with me? Ning Ye changed his frustration just now and asked excitedly.
"You're really, can you talk well."
"Yes, I have a week of vacation left."
"Do you have so many vacations? Last time during the Mid-Autumn Festival, you said you were on vacation. ”
"Yes, I was taken away before I finished my vacation, and this is for me. I haven't taken a vacation in the past few years, and I finally took a vacation back, and I couldn't miss a day. ”
"And what are you going to do this week?"
"It's in love."
"I don't have time to go crazy with you."
"Then what should I do, I can't fall in love with myself, anyway, I'll do whatever you do, I don't care, you said you would take me in."
Zhang Shuqiu really saw Ning Ye's tricks, shook his head and smiled: "Let's go to the flower market, buy some flowers and plants and go home." ”
"Order, you give me navigation. The ginger flower that the sixth uncle raised for you last time, do you like it very much? Ning Ye asked casually.
"Well, in early summer, ginger flowers are the most fragrant, and the leaves are blue and white, which is very eye-catching. When I was at home, Uncle Sixth would send me back every two or three days, he turned out to be a well-known flower planter, if it wasn't for the accident in their family at that time, in fact, it would be their family's best life. Zhang Shuqiu nodded.
"Is Aunt Sixth sick? What else is there to do? ”
"At first, it wasn't that Aunt Six was sick, it was their family's Jianhua who was sick, and it was also cancer, but it was discovered early and spent a lot of money, which saved her life. The sixth uncle and the second uncle were brothers, and not long after the second uncle died, the family was in a mess, and they couldn't help. The others are not enough to protect themselves, let alone help. The sixth uncle and the sixth aunt were very miserable, and later found out that the sixth aunt was sick again, and it was still in the late stage, and the sixth uncle collapsed at once......"
"There are two cancer patients in a family, and there is really no way to live this day."
"Yes, my uncle couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked me if I could find a way to buy some medicine. At that time, the medicine was expensive, and it was difficult to buy it in China. ”
"How do I think you are more like a child of the Li family than Li Yun. You see that you have a very good relationship with the elders of the Li family. Ning Ye said with emotion.
"My brother is a nerd, he knows to stay in the lab all day long and doesn't come back often. In my uncle's generation, he went out to work alone, and it turned out that a large family helped him, so later, he naturally had to take care of a large family. It's a bit like my dad, sometimes the burden on his shoulders is too heavy, and it's a little breathless. Zhang Shuqiu said with emotion.
"I listened to the eldest aunt and the second aunt chatting for a long time yesterday, and this burden is indeed a bit heavy. But when that happened, you were still a child......"
"Did I tell you about my grandmother? My grandmother told me since I was a child, saying that it is a family matter, but when you have the ability, you can take a hand, only when the family is prosperous, can the tree have deep roots and flourish, and as a member of the family, you can live a better life. Although I am not from the Li family, they all treat me well, and my uncle really loves me more than my brother. I didn't have a good time for a while, my aunt has a job after all, and it is the second aunt who watches over me day and night, and I sometimes feel that the smell of the second aunt is a bit like the smell of my grandmother, which is a clean sun fragrance......"
When Ning Ye heard this, his heart suddenly changed, and he wanted to ask Zhang Shuqiu what was going on with his illness back then, but he also knew that now was not the right time, so he simply turned the topic to his grandmother: "When you were a child, your grandmother taught you this?" ”
"Yes, when she was a child, my grandmother taught her like this, and she also read the Four Books and the Five Classics. But when it came time to teach me, they all told me stories about those history books, and I later eavesdropped on the classes of the Chinese Department and the History Department, and I thought that my grandmother told me much more wonderfully. Speaking of his grandmother, Zhang Shuqiu's face was excited.
"Your childhood, it's really special, you girls of this age, you should have grown up dancing "Little Girl Picking Mushrooms" when you were a child, right?" Ning Ye shrugged his eyebrows and said.
"Ha, then I really don't, I didn't go to kindergarten. I grew up in elementary school with my grandmother before I was sent back to the county seat. I was separated from my grandmother for half a year, and she came to the county town to take me again. Anyway, you went to Yundong last time, how did you feel? Parents and officials. ”
"It's a bit of a blockage. I studied the map before I went, but when I went, I found that there was a big difference. Surrounded by mountains on three sides, in fact, it is closer to Luzhou of the neighboring province, which is close to the Yangtze River waterway, which is much more developed than Yunzhou, but there is no road. This traffic blind spot is a major obstacle to Yundong's poverty alleviation. Speaking of Yundong, who was about to take office, Ning Ye's face became solemn.
"What else do you see besides traffic?" Zhang Shuqiu asked with a smile.
"Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the water to draft the water, and develop the characteristic economy. Yundong is actually not without resources, such as your mountain, Yunshan has found a good way to develop. Tea planting, chestnut planting, agricultural and sideline products, and even animal husbandry can all drive the development of your area. If the traffic is good, you can also develop tourism, your area, I simply walked, and I think the scenery is very good. ”
"Yes, you can see some ways when you look at the flowers. The last time you asked me for tea, you started thinking about what will happen after you take office? ”
"When I went, I heard some complaints, saying that in the past, the county allowed me to plant this year and that next year, but in the end, I just let the seeds be planted, but I didn't sell them, and I couldn't transport them, and many of them rotted at home or on the mountains. I wondered if it would be better if we solved the problem of marketing first and then considered large-scale planting. But all this is hindered by traffic. When you invested in Yunshan, didn't you think about this problem? Ning Ye suddenly asked.
How do you know that Zhang Shuqiu asked rhetorically: "When you come out this time, is it just you, or is there a batch?" ”
"There are five or six, they all have similar backgrounds to me, and the places are all young and old, why did you suddenly think of asking this?" Ning Ye said strangely.
"Haha, that's a really big determination. Very good, I'll give you a little more information. As far as I know, there are at least three hot springs in Yundong, all of which are suitable for tourism development. Chestnut is the business card of Yundong, but what can really be exported is by relying on the two towns in the east of Dayun Mountain. The chestnuts produced in the two towns, the big ones are as big as a child's fist, the taste is sweet and dense, with a natural osmanthus aroma, and in other places, because of the water and soil, you can't grow such chestnuts. However, the place where chestnuts are planted is not suitable for tourism development, and there will be a kind of insect growing on the chestnut trees where we are, and that bug, which is called foreign pepper in our local area, is surprisingly itchy when it gets on the body. The cultivation of tea is also exquisite, and it requires experts like Xiaoshan to guide on the spot, and not all places are suitable. The black goat flies with the collar, but he doesn't pick a lot of places......"
"Wow, how do you know so much about someone who is often not in the country?" Ning Ye asked as if he had picked up a treasure.
"You ask, don't I do a full investigation before I make an investment? That money didn't fall from the sky, it was given to Zhang Yunshan for nothing? Zhang Shuqiu glanced at Ning Ye, looked at the road in front of him and said, "Let's go back and talk about it, go buy flowers first, there are many unexpected surprises to give you." ”
"How do I feel like I've picked up a military advisor for nothing? Sure enough, God will help me, Xiaoqiu, look, if I don't find you, what should I do? ”
Zhang Shuqiu admired Ning Ye's ability to get the relationship between them no matter what he talked to her.
Ning Ye took Zhang Shuqiu's hand and shuttled through the flower market. At this time, there were not many people in the market, and after the two of them walked around for a while, Zhang Shuqiu was attracted by a succulent plant shop, and he was so happy that he couldn't wait to come to a pot when he saw everything.
In the end, of course, the proprietress of the succulent plant store was so happy that Zhang Shuqiu only hated that the car couldn't fit it. Ning Ye looked at Zhang Shuqiu's happy expression, not only amused by her: "Are you so happy?" ”
"Yes, you don't know, I've wanted to raise more meat for a long time, but I used to live in hotels more than at home, and even if I occasionally had a fixed residence, I didn't feel a sense of belonging, and I was afraid that once I left, no one would take care of them, and they would die. I actually want to keep a tank of fish, a cat, and a Samoyed, but forget it, I'm afraid ......"
Ning Ye looked at Zhang Shuqiu, whose eyes changed from joy to gloom, and hugged her into his arms in distress: "Don't be afraid, let's be together, just live well, you actually want an ordinary life......
Zhang Shuqiu nestled quietly in Ning Ye's arms, remembering that someone had said before: "Xiaoqiu, you don't look like an ordinary girl, you will definitely have a very different life in the future, and you will definitely go a long way......"
But now, she has indeed come a long way, but she seems to have gradually forgotten what ordinary life is like?
What is ordinary life? No matter how late you come home, there will always be a light waiting; There is a person, whether it is quarreling or being happy, you just want to be with him, you can lean on when you are tired, you can hug when you are cold, you can laugh together when you are happy, you can quarrel when you are unhappy, and you will occasionally have a cold war, but when you turn around, you are still reluctant to be really angry, hug each other and kiss each other in the quilt......
Will work with him to turn an empty house into a warm home. They will cook and eat together, accommodate each other's tastes, and slowly become a common taste, and slowly turn this taste into the exclusive taste of this family......
will cater to his preferences, keep his favorite hairstyle, wear clothes he likes to look at, and bring him jewelry to buy; also buy him clothes that fit him, and dress him up handsomely; Go out on the street with him and don't let his eyes be drawn to others......
will also have one or two children with him, slowly accompany them to grow up, and take them to many places; From holding them in his arms, to watching them walk and run, and finally getting farther and farther away, there are two people left, who can still be together, and they never get tired of watching each other......
It seems that ordinary life is more real and warm.
Zhang Shuqiu lay quietly on Ning Ye's chest, feeling his body temperature, suddenly raised his head, stretched out his hand, touched his face, and stood on tiptoe......
