We kept walking along the main road and only took the country roads if we had to correct our bearings. Farther and farther away from the city, it is deserted, with no villages and no factories, and the abandoned farmland is full of artemisia grass.

"There's no road ahead?" I looked at my phone and ahead again, and even the porous concrete road came to an abrupt halt, and I could vaguely see red bricks and tiles scattered in the grass.

Zhao Ziwu pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and frowned. "This was a village before, but it was demolished"

Shanshan and I looked behind us in unison, and we only felt like crying without tears.

"There's no way I'm going back! What to do? Wang Yuqing asked with a bitter face.

Hu Shanshan's throat rolled, and there was a hint of tenacity and resentment in her eyes. "Go hard!"

I don't think it's any sane approach, but I have reason to support her decision. When I zoomed in on the map on my phone, I saw that there was a lake outside the area, which seemed to be a scenic spot.

"I can't navigate this area, but it's in the right direction! If you go straight, you will be able to reach the road ahead in two hours. ”

"So what are you waiting for? Let's go! Hu Shanshan showed more courage, brushed away the half-man-tall artemisia grass in front of her, and walked away. I think she might really have something important to go home to, to the point where she has no scruples.

This is the worst part of the journey, there is no obvious road, overgrown with weeds! No one knew whether there was a puddle or a ravine ahead, and the clothes were hung with seeds of weeds; The blades of grass were covered with raindrops, and it didn't take long for them to get half wet. The worst thing is that Hu Shanshan tripped and fell in the ruins of a private house, and a bloody cut on her wrist was cut by the tiles, which was shocking.

We didn't carry any medical care products, and we wanted to learn from the scenes on TV to bandage her, but at this time, Hu Shanshan was more like a stubborn child, pushing me away, patting the dirt on my body and continuing to walk, letting the blood flow in her fingertips.

"You can't do that!" I caught up with her anxious shouting.

Hu Shanshan rubbed her shoulders and walked forward without looking back. Seeing me chasing after me chattering, she suddenly turned her head and looked at me, and said indifferently, "Are you noisy?" I'm not that delicate. ”

After saying that, Hu Shanshan walked forward regardless of it, no matter what I said, she didn't pay attention to it. Wang Yuqing and Zhao Ziwu cast sympathetic glances, but they couldn't do anything.

I don't know how far I walked this way, but I walked around a pond overgrown with reeds, and a red-brick beach appeared in front of me, which had been razed to the ground. We sat down to rest, and that's when the snacks we bought last night came in handy and we shared some for lunch.

However, no one had an appetite, Zhao Ziwu smoked two cigarettes in a row, and I used cigarette ash to stop the bleeding of Hu Shanshan's wound. She didn't have the previous resistance now, and quietly watched me bandage my wrist, and the irritability in her eyes was relieved.

"Fortunately, the wound is not deep, but it must be treated, it is easy to get infected" I did everything and picked up a piece of dried tofu and handed it to her, "Do you want to eat a little more?" ”

Hu Shanshan pushed away and shook her head, probably aware of her attitude just now, and looked at my face for a while: "Thank you Lu Xia"

"Heh, thanks for what?"

Hu Shanshan was also overjoyed when she saw my smiling wisdom, and raised her head to the sky and breathed a sigh of relief: "I want to remain humble!" What if you're small-minded and leave me here in a fit of rage? ”

Wang Yuqing was having an affair with Zhao Ziwu, put down the chicken wings in his hand, and instigated his fingers and said, "Sister Shanshan, if he doesn't care about you, we'll take care of it." ”

"You take care of yourself first," Zhao Ziwu said, taking a tissue to help her wipe her hands, carefully taking care of a child.

Hu Shanshan and I looked at them unconsciously, fascinated by the quiet years in front of us. Sometimes I envy their concubines, if I can always do this, this may be the so-called happiness!

When Zhao Ziwu threw the paper towel, he saw my torn dried tofu, so he picked it up and ate a piece, which may suit his taste, and was quite surprised: "Huh? ”

"Is it delicious?" Wang Yuqing opened his mouth at him with a small face, like a gluttonous cat begging for food.

Zhao Ziwu stuffed a piece into Wang Yuqing's mouth, and handed us the dried tofu: "You can eat a little more!" This is 'Chinese New Year's Eve'"

The three of them were stunned when they heard this, and then they realized that we were eating New Year's dinner now, but they didn't expect this year's New Year's dinner to eat these things in this kind of place, and they couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little weird, Hu Shanshan suddenly broke her silence and smiled, and picked up a piece of dried bean curd with her jade fingers and threw it into her mouth: "At home, a few people eat around a table, and it's fun for us to do this, isn't it?" ”

"Well, it's not fun!" I also smiled and picked up a piece of dried tofu, wrapped it in my mouth and ate it while saying, "And this dried tofu is very punctual, have you found it?" It has the taste of braised pork ribs. ”

"Huh? Have it? Wang Yuqing really believed it, and blamed himself for swallowing dates, tilting his head and reminiscing. It seems to be true! ”

"Isn't it?" I rummaged through the snack bag again, picked up another bag and handed it to Wang Yuqing, "Na~!" It's braised pork flavor."

Hu Shanshan stretched out her head to look at me, glanced at me, and said, "Are you hungry and stupid?" It also tastes like braised pork, hypocritical! ”

I ignored it and tore open the bag of dried tofu on my own. "Oh! Mistaken, it's sweet and sour fish flavor! ”

Wang Yuqing stretched his neck, a little excited. "I want sweet and sour fish too"

"Shall we have a drink?" Zhao Ziwu unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and asked with a sense of ceremony: "Brother Xiaoxia, let's go one?" ”

Blinking his eyes, he realized that the 'Xiao Xia' he said was me, and unscrewed the bottle and touched it.

"Manager Zhao, my name is Lu Xia, my surname is Lu, not Xia."

After drinking tea instead of wine, before she had time to wipe off the water droplets on her chin, Hu Shanshan suddenly sat up, "Xiao Xia, let's go too?" ”

"I'm going to go with 'Xiao Xia' too." Wang Yuqing hurriedly shouted.

"Good, good! I respect all of you......"
