Chapter 18: The Great Tiger
A hunched over, gray-haired, wrinkled old woman, carrying a small bamboo basket, slowly walked to the river, and asked with a smile.
"Your sisters have finished washing their clothes?"
"Oh, it's done, it's done, hehehe"
"Xiaoqing, Xiaofeng, you guys are so early every day,"
"My mother urged us to come early, we don't have to wait for the stone shop, and there are fewer mosquitoes"
"Your eldest sister is not here to wash clothes now"
"She doesn't live at home now, she lives in my dad's dormitory run by the company"
"Oh"
"Grandma, are you washing the vegetables? Slow down."
Li Qing and Li Feng stood up and walked back, and the women who came one after another on the path, carrying baskets and going down to the river to wash clothes.
When he got home, Song Nanzhi had already packed up the sweet potatoes and peanuts on the balcony into the room.
Li Qing and Li Feng began to dry their clothes, and Song Nanzhi also came over to help and asked
"Are there many people by the river?"
"We go early every day, so we don't have to wait for the stone shop"
"yes, I'll tell you to go early."
"Stampede"
There was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, and Li Qing looked up.
Ouyang came, wearing the clothes he usually wore, but they were cleanly washed.
In the same town, Li Qing's parents and Ouyang's father are more familiar, and Song Nanzhi often goes to the oil factory.
Ouyang shouted with a smile
"Auntie"
"Ouyang, have you eaten it?"
"Eaten"
Li Feng also greeted Ouyang,
"Ouyang, come and play"
"Li Feng, are you still in the canvas factory?"
"It's still in the canvas factory, it's mixed."
"It's all the same, it's a mix"
"The oil mill is more profitable, right? Sometimes our canvas factory works more, sometimes it works less"
"Your second sister also works in an oil factory, she knows, it's all about the same."
Li Qing made a cup of green tea for Ouyang, Ouyang took a few sips, put it on the table, and walked around the yard to take a look.
"I remember that there used to be a lot of flowers in the yard."
"Well, yes, since my dad left, my mom has been seriously ill and removed the big moss, and I'm not in the mood to do it, and now the yard is empty, and there are a few poplar trees outside the yard."
"Oh"
"Your dad, we are very familiar with each other, pretend to murder me as soon as they see me, hehehe"
It was almost dusk, Li Qing said to Song Nanzhi
"Mom~ I'll go out for a walk with Ouyang,"
Song Nanzhi
"Oh"
Ouyang greeted with a smile,
"Auntie, let's go, Li Feng, let's go"
"Oh"
The two walked out of the yard together, and when they came out of the alley, two meters ahead, there was an exposed drainage ditch, twenty centimeters wide, and they needed to use force to cross it.
Ouyang took the lead and stepped over.
Li Qing stood here and hesitated.
Because the alley is a bit dark, I can't see clearly.
At this time, Ouyang stretched out a hand from the opposite side and grabbed Li Qing's hand, Li Qing lifted his right leg with strength, stepped across the small ditch with an arrow step, his body was crooked, and he almost fell into Ouyang's arms.
Li Qing was frightened into a sweat, and he tried his best to calm down and stabilize his body.
Ouyang Zhi stood stunned, still holding Li Qing's hand, fortunately, it was not tight, and Li Qing slowly pulled out his hand.
At this time, a person came out of the neighbor's house in the alley,
"Is it Kiyoko Ko? Where are you going at night? ”
Li Qing hurriedly lowered his head.
Ouyang walked in front, as if he didn't react, just turned his head and continued to walk forward.
Suddenly, he stopped again, waiting for Li Qing to approach, the two took two steps side by side, Ouyang swung his arms back and forth, the amplitude became smaller and smaller, and his hand seemed to be scratching something.
Li Qingzheng was walking with his arms swinging slightly, and inadvertently touched Ouyang's hand, Ouyang grabbed it and grasped it in the palm of his hand.
Li Qing is not pumping, nor is he not pumping.
The two have been holding hands, walking forward, the end of the alley is connected to the national highway, walking through the street, walking past the oil mill, turning a corner, it is the village road, and there are seedling fields on both sides of the village road.
It was dark, there was no light, and there was silence all around.
There was a three-way intersection in front, the pace of the two gradually slowed down, standing on the side of the road and talking, Ouyang slowly, turned to the opposite side of Li Qing, stretched out his other hand, and also held Li Qing's other hand.
Li Qing didn't dare to look at Ouyang's gaze, and felt that Ouyang's eyes had a shining light that pierced him.
Ouyang was getting closer and closer to him, and his hands were clenched tighter and tighter.
Li Qing suddenly turned his body sideways, broke free from Ouyang's hands, and walked forward quickly.
Ouyang followed closely, and Li Qingmai took small steps and ran.
Ouyang strode after him.
In front of him was a dark and secluded bamboo forest, and the wind blew the bamboo forest "whoosh, whoosh", and Li Qing's footsteps stopped.
Ouyang Jian walked in front of him, Li Qing turned his head and ran back,
"Li Qing, I'm not a big tiger, what are you running? Hehehe"
"You're Worse Than a Big Tiger"
"Don't run, just stand and talk, okay"
"That's okay"
Li Qing stopped, and seeing that Ouyang was in front of him again, Li Qing turned his head and ran towards the bamboo forest again.
"Come on, come on, come on, the bamboo forest in front is beckoning to you, I heard that there are really wolves in the bamboo forest, I killed one yesterday, hehehe"
It was dark and secluded, and the bamboo forest was clustered one by one, swaying with the wind, like a black shadow approaching him.
There is Ouyang in front of you, and there is a bamboo forest in the back, and there is not even a person walking on this road.
Cold sweat oozed from Li Qing's forehead! The legs are also a little weak.
"Li Qing, it's too late, I'll send you back, otherwise your mother will be worried."
"Okay,"
Ouyang walked forward quickly, stretched out his hand to pull Li Qing, Li Qing's legs stiffened, his body was crooked, and he plunged into Ouyang's arms.
When you work in an oil mill, there is a lunch break at noon.
Today, Li Qing went home for dinner, came directly to the oil factory, passed by Ouyang's room, the door was locked, raised his hand and knocked twice, and knocked twice, but no one answered.
Li Qing took out the key, opened the door, and covered the door.
Ouyang hasn't been to the factory for the past few days, and I heard that he is doing farm work at home.
Li Qing saw that it was still early, so he pulled out a chair and sat down.
I took out a book casually, opened it gently, and looked at it seriously.
Suddenly, outside the door, there was the sound of footsteps, and the crisp clatter of bicycle wheels as they rolled on the concrete floor.
Ouyang pushed the door and walked in, Li Qing just stood up, and the two of them stretched out their arms and hugged each other.
The sweat that emanates from the boy's body
The taste is special, pure, clean and vibrant.
Li Qing buried his head deep in Ouyang's arms, this feeling was very strange, there was a kind of warmth that he had never had, like his father and brother, but it was closer and warmer than his father and brother.
Li Qing's eyes closed slightly, his face turned sideways, and suddenly found that by the window, there was a figure flickering, and soon disappeared.
Li Qing was startled and let go of his hand, Ouyang also let go of his hand, and the two of them slowly walked to the window and looked out,
Li Qing whispered
"I saw someone outside the window"
"I guess, it's the people in the factory, let's go out and have a look"
The two of them walked out of the room to see, and there was really no one.
Li Qing took a look, the small alarm clock on the table, it was almost time to go to work, took a comb to comb his hair, pulled his clothes and prepared to go to the store.
Five minutes later...
