The rain in spring is not big. Floating down quietly, moisturizing things silently. It can be said that it is not small, walking in the rain, as if it is finely wrapped by spring silkworms, sticking people tightly, and penetrating the placket a little bit.

It's getting busier and more chaotic!

Zhang Qingting was really anxious in her heart, she knew that it was inappropriate to go out with Yan Bo in a hurry today, after all, it was a young man and woman, and there were still many things to avoid suspicion in this melon field.

But what? In order to rush in, all the people who can make it have been arranged, a radish and a pit, and pulling out any of them will have to delay things. Fortunately, it was only half a journey, and after a while, I arrived at the brick factory, inspected the goods, and then came back with others, and there was nothing to do.

Besides, it was still early in the morning, and there were still many pedestrians on it, Yan Bo strictly abided by the rules, and always walked five steps in front of her.

Zhang Qingting set his mind for himself, but he might as well step on the grass that had just emerged. I slipped forward and almost fell.

When Yan Bo looked back, she was already standing still. Yan Bo looked left and right, broke a branch and handed it over, "This rain is wet and muddy, it's really slippery and tight, you go to that high and hard place, don't step on that depression!" ”

Zhang Qingting took the branch, and with a support, he walked much more steadily. The two of them said no more and hurried forward. Hurried to the brick factory, it rained early and got dark, and when the goods were inspected, they had to light the lights.

Looking at the dark sky outside, the owner of the brick factory enthusiastically retained them, "Why don't you have a meal here with me and wait for tomorrow morning to come over?" ”

Zhang Qingting shook his head and refused, he still had to delay half a day's work when he went back tomorrow morning. This first spring rain has already begun to fall, and if you don't hurry up and wait for the rain to really fall, it will be troublesome.

Besides, there are no female dependents on the brick factory, all men, and it is really inappropriate to live in a woman's house, even if she is given a space room alone, it is sloppy here.

Seeing that she insisted on leaving, the owner of the brick factory no longer retained. Hurry up and order the guy to set the car. A flatbed two-horse-drawn cart dragged back with them full of masonry.

It's much easier to have a car, and although there is no canopy, you don't have to go. Zhang Qingting and Yan Bo shared a car, and the boss also found a hat and a coat for one of them before leaving. Zhang Qingting thought that the coat was ugly and heavy, thinking that the journey was not too far, so she only needed the hat, but she really waited for a while, and when the cold wind blew in the night, she felt the chill.

The overcoat outside had already been soaked in the rain, and the spring rain was endless. The hat could only protect his head, but he sat on the wheel, his body was still in the rain, and he didn't move, but felt more and more cold. After a while, Zhang Qingting felt a little runny nose, and he looked forward to arriving home sooner.

Before walking to a small hill, the guy who was driving the car got out of the car by himself, and motioned for Zhang Qingting to come down as well to reduce some weight. Catch the car first.

When Zhang Qingting jumped down, the sky was dark, and he didn't see clearly, so he jumped into a small puddle, the water was not deep, and he just didn't reach the instep, but he got his shoes that were already half-wet by muddy water. She was secretly annoyed, but luckily it was dark and not many people noticed.

The guy who drove the car: "Phew! Sigh! He drove the carriage up the slope, the masonry was heavy, and the horses all bent down with great difficulty, and Zhang Qingting was frightened, for fear that one would not go up and fall backwards, so he only dared to follow the side of the car.

finally went to the top of the slope, which made people breathe a sigh of relief, and Yan Bo suddenly shouted, "Be careful to go downhill!" ”

Before he could finish speaking, he saw that the carriage had gone down for less than two steps, and a horse's hoof stepped into the puddle, and the horse's feet were heavy, and he sank into the mud for a long time, and he couldn't pull it out for a long time, but the horse next to him didn't know that he was still moving forward, and then the whole carriage lost its balance, and the inertia of the masonry behind it fell down, and it smashed into the two horses in front!

The guy was frightened, and pulled hard, and the whole person was stretched into a bowstring. "Come and help!"

Zhang Qingting followed aside, her little face turned white with fright, but how could she have any strength to help?

Yan Bo jumped up from behind, and helped the fellow pull the reins together, causing the horse to move sideways, and finally managed to maintain his balance. But I only heard a muffled sound of "clicking", and a car bearing could not withstand the sudden twisting weight and cracked. Fortunately, the masonry on the car was very strong, and it only slowly tilted down as the body gradually tilted, just taking advantage of the slope to pause.

Everyone was sweating profusely, and the horses were relieved and rested for a while. Yan Bo hurriedly found a few large stones to cushion the wheels so that they would not slide down. The guy himself was frightened, and thanked Yan Bo again and again. Whether he smashed the cargo or injured the horse, he couldn't go back and explain to the boss.

Zhang Qingting finally breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, everyone was fine! When Xiucai left, she could explain thousands of instructions to her, and it didn't matter if something was valuable, but don't let anyone have an accident! One is unlucky, and the other is pulling the skin and stretching the strings at the back, and I don't know how much trouble there is.

The two guys in the back each stabilized the car and came up to take a look. One and two complained to the person in front of the head, "This rainy day is slippery, and the downhill is more difficult to walk than the uphill, why are you careless?" Okay, how do you get there? If not, we'll go first, and we'll pick you up later! ”

"Don't mind!" The guy at the head stopped doing it, "I didn't mean to!" Who knew that the horse's hooves would sink just right? Don't leave me here alone! Why don't we repair this axle and go together, and I'll invite you to drink when we get back!" ”

A few people gathered around the axle and studied, "How else can this be repaired?" The whole thing is cracked. It's just that the rope is barely tied, it's okay not to drag the goods, and the goods will fall apart! It's useless to fix it! ”

"What then?" Zhang Qingting really felt troubled, the cold started from the feet, and the feet were wet, and the warmth of the whole person seemed to be taken away, and if he continued to consume it, he would have to be sick when he went back!

Yan Bo came up with an idea, "After this slope, there is no such difficult walk ahead." If you don't divide the bricks on this car, and drag the other two cars with us, fix the axles, you can go back first! ”

That's a good idea! One of the men said, "Then give us your two horses too, or you won't be able to eat so much goods!" ”

"After taking the horse, how did he drive the cart back?" Zhang Qingting was quite anxious for that guy.

Another guy laughed and said, "Didn't you see that we were a flatbed?" Unload the goods lightly! This little guy broke the axle, and he should be taught a lesson, let him pull the car back later! Anyway, it's not far, just take a walk. It's better than leaving you here! ”

The guy shouted bad luck, but he could only listen to his companion's advice. Some of the big men took it and took off the ropes that bound him with the masonry from his cart, and evened out the horses and the masonry to the two carts, and gave him a rough repair of the cart, which took more than half an hour.

The man slung the rope over his shoulder and pulled the empty cart back. The first two cars were so heavy that the men stopped riding and drove their horses on foot.

Zhang Qingting could only follow behind, those two guys were used to walking, the five thick men, even in the mud, they were walking like flying. But Miss Zhang walked a trip when she came, and now her feet are wet, and her body is hungry and cold, and she is really a little unbearable to walk back. Slowly, the distance widened.

The two guys hurriedly finished delivering the goods and went back to pay the errand. "The hostess! We're not waiting for you! You and your guy are planning to go slowly, we have to go back after we finish sending it quickly! ”

What can Zhang Qingting say? "Okay! Then be careful! ”

The guys drove away quickly, and Yan Bo was silent behind her and slowly moved slowly.

When the guy was out of sight, Yan Bo said in a low voice, "I'll give you this robe!" ”

Zhang Qingting shook her head, she was tired enough to walk, and with that big coat, she couldn't walk anymore. I'd rather get wet than add another burden.

Reluctantly walked forward for a while, seeing that her speed was getting slower and slower, Yan Bo seemed to think for a long time before making up his mind, and broke a branch in front of her, "I'll drag you away." ”

Zhang Qingting really couldn't walk, there were two big lumps of mud on her feet, she couldn't scrape them clean, and they were getting heavier and heavier, and the soaked cotton shoes couldn't get hot, and the two heels were like two pieces of ice, and the heat loss was serious, and she was getting more and more struggling to walk.

After thinking about it, she pulled a branch, and didn't even touch the corner of her clothes, which was not a violation of etiquette, and she didn't want to drag it anymore, so she reached out and grabbed the other end of the branch, and thanked her softly, "Then trouble you!" ”

Yan Bo glanced back at her, revealing a hint of joy slightly. But he quickly turned his head, and in the dark night, he couldn't see what kind of thoughts were hidden in the darkness. Only the small puddles on the ground that were as bright as mirrors were illuminated, and when there was a sudden glimmer of light in his eyes, they were so radiant. Like a pearl that wipes away the dust, it shows a bit of the brilliance he should have. But for a moment, it calmed down again, as if nothing had happened, nothing had happened.

The rain is still falling. There were no pedestrians in the morning, and there was silence between heaven and earth. There are no stars and no moons, and even the lights are only a star and a half far away.

The atmosphere was dull and a little embarrassing, and Zhang Qingting had no choice but to find something to say, "Hmm...... Ah Li, are you used to living at Master Fang's house? ”

"Good."

"The old man doesn't usually find fault with you, does he?"

"Nope. He's actually a good talker. ”

"Hehe, I think it's just you who said he was easy to talk to!" Zhang Qingting couldn't find words more and more, so he had to pull around, "Mingzhu always said that there are a lot of things to follow you!" This apprentice of mine is about to be snatched away by you! ”

Zhang Qingting obviously felt the branch in his hand tremble slightly.

Yan Bo turned around and explained with a little anxiousness, "I didn't ...... Didn't teach her anything......"

"What are you afraid of?" Seeing that he was so nervous, Zhang Qingting's mood relaxed, and he smiled gently, "Don't worry, no one said anything!" We don't treat you as an outsider, it's just that you are careful yourself, and you don't talk to people much, so that everyone doesn't dare to get close to you. Last time, Jinbao also said that he would work with you! I don't dare to mention it. ”

"I ...... I didn't mean to! Yan Bo's eyes dimmed, "I'm afraid...... I'm afraid it's not good for you! ”

"What's so bad?" Zhang Qingting said with a smile, "You are a reader, and you should be the one who has read the most books, and you must know more truths than all of us." Of course, you know the meaning of the saying, 'He who forsaken me on yesterday's day shall not remain'. Ahri, forget about the past! What is not good for you to do? Why do you have to be subservient? ”

"You, boss, do you want me to leave?" Yan Bo paused, stunned.

"Look at you! Again! Zhang Qingting also paused, "It's not for you to go, it's for you to do something better and more suitable for you!" Besides, I'm not your boss lady anymore, I really want to say that Master Fang is your boss! ”

Yan Bo'an calmed down and smiled slightly, "I think it's good to be here!" You and Master Fang are accomplices, no matter who follows you, for me, it is the same, you are still my boss lady! ”

"You!" Zhang Qingting shook his head with a smile, "Sure enough, Xianggong is right, you are now desireless, out of bounds, and not in the Five Elements!" ”

"Brother Zhao...... Did he talk about me, too? Yan Bo inquired cautiously.

"Yes! He also said when he would have a good talk with you! Don't worry too much, he's also for your own good, and I don't want you to make a big use of it with us! ”

"Really?" Yan Bo replied lightly, "I don't think so." ”

Zhang Qingting suddenly smiled and asked, "Ah Li, have you ever thought about starting a family?" ”

Yan Bo was stunned.

Zhang Qingting said with a smile, "Aunt Wang next door asked me if you sold yourself to us as slaves?" I heard that there was no, so I asked if you have become a family, and she has a niece who wants to recruit a son-in-law, and asks if you are willing? ”

Yan Bo's face changed slightly, and he took advantage of the good cover of the night, but his eyes immediately turned away, "Boss, don't make fun of me!" Who am I, and how can I bother others? ”

Zhang Qingting asked rhetorically, "Who are you?" Are you a bad person? ”

Yan Bo raised his eyes, "But I ......"

"You only made a mistake once, so why pay for it with your life?" Zhang Qingting persuaded him, "When you are young and ignorant, who doesn't make a few mistakes?" You've just made a big mistake, but you've already paid for it. Now that I'm determined to change, why can't I find someone well, start a family, and live a peaceful life? Do you really want to live alone for a lifetime? ”

"That's fine!" Yan Bo said lightly, his eyes were painfully numb.

"Then you are really ......" Zhang Qingting only cared about talking, didn't look at his face, stepped on a dry bush sticking out of the side with one foot, and the whole person rolled down!

(ps The weather has cooled down, you should take care of yourself, wear more clothes and pay attention to keeping warm, and drink more water when it is dry, so that your skin will be moisturized and healthy!) Even go to drink a glass of water, yard two more! )
