A Thousand Knots: Chapter 66: A Pleasant Night
() When he arrived at the school gate, Chu Xinghe said, "Don't go back, stay in a hotel with me." ”
Xiao Duxue blushed: "That...... How's that going to work? I have to go back, Xuefeng is still waiting for me at home. ”
"It's early in the morning, you go back now, and you want to make everyone up?" Chu Xinghe said funny, "You shouldn't be worried about what I'm going to do to you, right?" ”
"How so? I...... I just don't find it convenient. Xiao Duxue's eyes didn't know where to look, "After all, after all, ......"
"After all, there is a difference between men and women, isn't it? After all, it's always bad for a lonely man and a widow to be in the same room, right? ”
"Hmm."
"It's true that there is a difference between men and women, and it's not false that men and women are alone. It's just that you shouldn't have to worry about that. I usually tutor you to study, and there are only you and me in the hotel, so do I have the slightest misbehavior? ”
"Nope. Teacher Chu, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that. Xiao Duxue bit her lip and said, "Then I'll bother you tonight." ”
Chu Xinghe pursed his lips and walked in front alone.
"Angry?"
"Of course I'm angry when you think of me like that."
Xiao Duxue stood in the middle of the road: "I was wrong! She picked her nails and whispered, "I have a daughter's family, is it possible that you said that we would live in a hotel together, and I would agree immediately?" by my dad...... If my mom finds out, she'll scold me to death. ”
Chu Xinghe sighed.
Xiao Duxue said again: "Besides, you are the one who has a girlfriend. In case something good chews on the root of the tongue, I don't care, but what do you do? Sister Chu knows, how can I explain it to her? I guess she's going to tear me apart! ”
Chu Xinghe smiled: "Your sister Chu?" Turns out you're worried about this. It's all about it! ”
Xiao Duxue muttered: "I really hate those who fall in love, they take up all the rooms every weekend, and I don't know how to leave one for others." ”
Chu Xinghe wanted to speak, but he was worried that the obedient people would misunderstand, so he simply shut up and pretended not to hear.
In the hotel, only the street lights and the lights in the corridors are still on. On such a rainy night, how many people like to have a dream with their beloved.
Xiao Duxue looked east and west, cramped like a guest visiting for the first time, nervous and flustered.
Chu Xinghe put the hot water and came out: "Go take a bath, I'm going to change my clothes." As he spoke, he pretended to undress with his hands.
Xiao Duxue hurriedly entered the bathroom and locked the door tightly.
Chu Xinghe laughed secretly, made the bed and stood in front of the window to watch the rain.
Soon, Xiao Duxue came out of the bathroom with her washed clothes. She wore a white bath towel around her chest and scratched her ears uncomfortably: "I have no clothes to wear, so I can only use a bath towel." ”
Chu Xinghe hung his clothes on the tuyere in the corridor: "The wind is so strong, it will definitely be dry tomorrow morning." He pointed to the bed against the wall and said, "Hold on, don't catch a cold." Inadvertently, his gaze fell on Xiao Duxue, and he quickly moved away.
Xiao Duxue climbed onto the bed and covered only her head. By the time Chu Xinghe came out of the shower, she hadn't slept properly.
In the middle of the night, a muffled sound woke Chu Xinghe. He turned on the light and looked: Xiao Duxue fell under the bed wrapped in the quilt, but she still slept soundly. He laughed: still so dishonest!
Xiao Duxue turned over, and a pair of bare legs were exposed outside the quilt.
Chu Xinghe lifted the quilt to cover her legs, and carried her back to the bed with great care.
In the morning, the rain passed and the sky cleared.
Xiao Duxue yawned, and was about to get out of the bed, but hurriedly shrank back.
Chu Xinghe sat in front of the window reading a book, and didn't look back when he heard the movement: "The clothes are on the bedside for you." He closed the book and said, "I'll buy breakfast." ”
Xiao Duxue grimaced at his back: Mr. Pedant, who is one-eyed! I won't say good morning to anyone! She picked up her underwear and suddenly blushed: I'm a pig! I forgot to dry my underwear last night......
In the bright sunshine, Chu Xinghe stretched his waist: what a long and comfortable night!
Next to the redbud tree, a couple said good morning to another couple.
A new day begins!
After breakfast that day, Xiao Duxue was drying clothes, and Cangyang was carrying a bag of wild fruits downstairs and shouting: "The one upstairs who is drying clothes...... I'm talking about you, the thief-headed guy. Come down, there are good things. ”
Fu Xuefeng immediately went downstairs. Xiao Duxue finished drying her clothes unhurriedly and tidied up her desk, so she went downstairs in a hurry. She's in a particularly good mood today. The B big month exam paper brought by Chu Xinghe, each of her homework scores was above 85 points, which belonged to the upper middle grade. Chu Xinghe annotated the mistakes in detail, and extended the relevant question types for her to do again.
Cangyang waited anxiously: "You're really not in a hurry!" There is a big bustle in the county today, do you want to go? ”
"The county seat? No, it's too far. That's it? ”
"You don't even ask what kind of excitement it is, just refuse? Don't regret it? ”
"I don't ask, and you'd better not say it." Xiao Duxue meticulously did eye exercises, "It's rare that Teacher Chu can't come to the meeting this weekend, and I have to deal with the backlog of homework." You take Xuefeng to play, and I'll take care of the house. ”
"It's a big annual festival, and you can see a lot of customs and customs, and there are many traditions that are not recorded in the books." Cangyang was not in a hurry, and took out a wild fruit and rubbed it on his clothes, "You really don't go?" That doesn't force you. It's just that when you get back next year, it's hard to see you again. ”
"Don't seduce me! Say, what the hell is it? ”
"You'll know when you go. In short, I won't lie to you. ”
Fu Xuefeng was already excited, and his face was full of anticipation.
Xiao Duxue thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll give myself a holiday." ”
"Well, how can you not go? This wild fruit is sweet and crunchy, and it is eaten on the road. You guys go catch the car now, and you'll be there in about an hour. Remember, don't be playful, don't miss the last train back, or you'll have to sleep on the street tonight. At this time of year, the hotels are full. ”
"Thanks for the reminder. I took a leave of absence from my aunt. ”
"Excuse me. Every year today, Grandma and her sisters run faster than anyone else, rushing to join in the fun and buy new gadgets. Our family is not doing business these days, so you are open to play yours. Cangyang put on his bulging backpack and said, "I'm also going to climb the mountain." ”
"Where is the mountain? Wild mountains? ”
"Big sister! Be quiet! I have to let my grandfather hear it! ”
"Are you really going to climb the wild mountains? It's dangerous, it's all primeval forest. ”
"The more dangerous it is, the more exciting it is, the more exciting it is, the happier it is. Think about it, I am a painter, and I am the aboriginal here, if I have never even seen the primeval forest, how can I paint everything in the world like the wind in the future? ”
"I want to go too. You take me and Snow Peak. ”
"You? That's not going to work! This mountain is not better than the mountains we usually climb, the mountains are high and densely forested, and we walk on wild roads, and many places have not yet done so
The road can be walked, you have to find it as you go, not to mention how tiring it is. With your thin arms and legs, it is estimated that you will have to lie down in less than ten minutes. I can't afford to be a burden. ”
"It's hard to say whether it's cumbersome or not. In a word, will you take us with you? Don't bring it, do you? Xiao Duxue grinned and raised her voice suddenly, "Grandpa, Cangyang is going to ......"
Cangyang hurriedly went to cover her mouth: "I'll take you, I'll take you!" Ancestor, don't you call it okay? ”
Xiao Duxue dodged his hand and said with a smile: "If you don't promise it a long time ago, it's over, you have to force me to make a trick." I suddenly remembered that my grandfather had gone to refuel the car and was not at home. ”
"Lie to me again! Someday I'm going to get it back! ”
"Don't be angry, I'll give you something fun another day."
"I don't want fun, I want food."
"If you don't think what I'm making is unpalatable, I'm okay with that." Xiao Duxue and Fu Xuefeng changed into long clothes and trousers, and one of them brought a thick coat, put on sneakers, packed some food and set off with Cangyang.
There are 12 people in a group, and there are not many people who know each other, and the team leader is a senior from the Tibetan Department, with a broad back and a round waist, which is very weighty. He first asked everyone to introduce themselves, and then explained the precautions again, and then rearranged the lineup: three girls walked in the middle, and each of them was a boy with good physical strength and experience. Food and water were also redistributed, and the burden of physical strength was greater, and the girls carried only their own clothes.
In front of Xiao Duxue is Cangyang, and behind is Fu Xuefeng. She felt surrounded: "You two stay away from me, leave me alone, help them go." ”
Fu Xuefeng didn't speak, nor did he go far, just silently followed behind her. Cangyang wouldn't be so well-behaved, and threw a pebble on her head: "You think I want to take care of you?" It's just a matter of listening to the leader's arrangement. The most important thing in climbing wild mountains is not to be left behind. Once you fall behind, you will cry to death, and no one will come to save you. ”
Xiao Duxue thought it was true and didn't reply.
The gravel trail is steep and slippery. There were no trees or grass on either side of the road, only sparse bushes. This shrub is common, with rounded brownish leaves with sharp thorns. There was no place to borrow strength, and the rubber soles stepped on the gravel, slipping and slipping, and the feet hurt.
Fu Xuefeng asked Xiao Duxue from time to time, for fear that she would fall.
The boys are discussing the upcoming World Cup, telling some meaty jokes, talking about the customs of their hometown, chatting about a beautiful girl or a certain hearsay love, but it is also lively. The two girls in front of Cangyang are junior sisters, who have some experience in mountain climbing, and they are both cheerful, enthusiastic and kind girls, who turn around from time to time to take care of Xiao Duxue and let her be more careful.
Xiao Duxue thanked the two for their kindness, and concentrated more on climbing the mountain, for fear that she would really become a burden.
The sun was very face-loving, hiding in the clouds and not coming out, and the weather was much cooler than the day before.
A boy proposes to sing. Immediately, the team will say a word to you, and I will take a mouth, and stage a big skewer of songs. Xiao Duxue thought of Yao Mengya, if she was there, her voice would definitely be amazing. I wonder if she's okay?
Further up, there is no longer a gravel road, but a brownish-black and hard dirt. There are fewer shrubs and more trees. At the foot of the tree, where the sun shines, there are many unknown flowers. The flowers are in different postures and colors, swaying in the cool wind, sending fragrant greetings to travelers.
Xiao Duxue picked the flowers and made them into garlands and gave them to the two senior sisters. The two of them liked her very much and kept thanking her.
