After the toll booth, Zhang Nanyan said: "Where is this Boran Mountain Residence, we have to ask for directions first." ”

Less than ten meters away, the problem was solved.

At the intersection of the main road leading from the expressway station to the city, a huge billboard was erected--- Welcome to the Boran Mountain House, drive 15 kilometers to the west.

"Look, there's a guide."

Zheng Fan drove in the direction indicated by the billboard.

Along the way, there are signs at intervals that sign the Poran Mountain Residence. At first, it was a national highway, then it was a rural road, and then it was a village road, passing through the big village and falling small, after the chickens and dogs jumped and the children galloped, the signs actually brought them all the way into the mountains.

There is an open flat area in the mountain pass, and Zheng Fan parked his car here.

When I got out of the car, I was greeted by fresh air.

Zhang Nanyan took a deep breath, her groggy mind immediately cleared up, and her tired body was refreshed.

"This is like my hometown!" She looked at the lush mountains in front of her, as if she had returned to the Taihang Mountains where she grew up.

The little milk swallow flew south and returned as a grown child. The old bird's nest that used to be under the eaves is still its most attached home.

Little Swallow's eyes are full of nostalgia and attachment, and she really looks like a "Little Swallow" who loves home.

Zheng Fan knew that Zhang Nanyan came to the capital to work hard alone, and her family did not give her any care and help, and she was even homeless during the Chinese New Year.

I remembered my friend's reply to him, "That family is too troublesome, even if you give them enough money this time, what about the future?" Insatiable people don't stop in moderation. ”

His reply was, "Yes to their request." Tens of thousands of dollars can change a girl's life, it's worth it. ”

Zheng Fan feels sorry for Xiaoyanzi, just looking at the performance of her family, you can imagine how bad the environment in which she grew up would be.

But even so, at this moment, Xiaoyanzi's eyes are full of nostalgia for the beauty of her hometown, without the slightest resentment.

Such a little swallow is so cute. He really wanted to protect her simple happiness forever, even if it cost him.

Thinking of this, Zheng Fan laughed from the bottom of his heart. Ever since Little Swallow appeared in his life, he had more laughs than all the previous years combined. If it weren't for her appearance, Zheng Fan would really feel that he had entered the ranks of middle-aged and elderly people.

How could it be like now, he felt that he was full of energy, and it was no problem to climb a mountain!

"Let's go up and have a look."

"Okay." Zhang Nanyan replied happily.

The two of them walked together up the hill.

Zheng Fan noticed that Zhang Nanyan had quietly walked behind him again.

This girl, her little inferiority complex makes Zheng Fan feel sorry.

Girls should be confident and proud, and they should believe that they are worthy of any pursuit and respect.

He remained silent, slowing down, waiting for her.

Zhang Nanyan felt Zheng Fan's intentions and couldn't help but be deeply moved. At the beginning, when she was traveling in Japan, she noticed several times that Mr. Zheng seemed to be waiting for her intentionally while walking, and she didn't dare to think about it, just as it was a coincidence. This time, she finally determined that Zheng Fan was indeed waiting for her to walk side by side.

She has been neglected by her parents since she was a child, and even if she is a little child, she can't catch up with her parents even if she runs, and the most she remembers is her parents' back scolding her for being slow while walking forward. Low self-esteem accompanied her throughout her growth, even if she was beautiful, she didn't dare to raise her head and hold her chest high, even if she had excellent grades, she didn't dare to stand in front of others.

Walking behind others is already a deep-rooted habit of hers.

Even if she is in love, she will always look up at each other's backs.

No one noticed her habit, Lin Dong didn't, and none of her friends did. But now, the man in front of her, whom she regarded as the teacher's beloved, was silently respecting her, protecting her, and waiting for her.

In this chaotic relationship, Zhang Nanyan was not sure what kind of feelings she had for Zheng Fan. She admired him, trusted him, and relied on him, and once she convinced herself that it was just admiration for the teacher, but then she gave up thinking about feelings, and only remembered her duty and reward. Even if she ran out with him without hesitation, she just wanted to accompany him and comfort him.

At this moment, the pace of waiting for her to slow down deeply touched her heart. She decided that she would be willing to go with her as long as the teacher needed her.

Zhang Nanyan mustered up her courage and stepped forward quickly.

She came to Zheng Fan's side, and the warm figure beside her gave her a great sense of security.

It turned out that not only Zheng Fan needed her company, but she also gained unprecedented family affection and warmth from her teacher.

She suddenly wanted to hold the teacher's hand, like a little girl, longing to be close to the person she respected most.

Her cold, trembling hands bravely reached out.

His hands were so big that she couldn't hold them, and the knuckles on the back of his hands were on her palms.

Zheng Fan stopped and turned his head to look at Zhang Nanyan.

Zhang Nanyan was very nervous and couldn't help shaking, but she still looked back at Zheng Fan bravely.

Her determination was written in her eyes.

Zheng Fan understood.

He held Zhang Nanyan's hand with his backhand and completely protected her hand in the palm of his hand.

"Is it cold or not?" He asked softly.

"It's not cold." Zhang Nanyan shook her head.

"Are you afraid?" In front of them is an uncertain mountain road that they have to walk on their feet.

"Don't be afraid." Zhang Nanyan said firmly.

He held her hand tightly and said, "Then let's go on." ”

Along the mountain road, it is getting more and more desolate and rugged, but there is always a road. Although this road is only a two- or three-meter-man-made, compacted dirt road, there are two rows of small saplings planted along the road, the grass is also specially trimmed, and countless wildflowers are in full bloom.

With this road, the remote mountains are also full of interest. People follow the mountain road up, it seems to be along the peach forest with colorful flowers, to visit the peach blossom source.

Zhang Nanyan walked in front happily, and after a while, she pointed to a cluster of plants in surprise and said, "This is a wild chrysanthemum, dried and soaked in water to drink, but it can go to the fire." ”

"This is the mother-in-law, blanched in water and mixed cold, but it is refreshing."

"Look, look, there are so many winter melons here, they grow so big, like a group of piglets."

"There's a little crawler!" Zhang Nanyan squatted down, her fingers flying, neatly picking small green fruits in a vine.

Zhang Nanyan held a small green round melon in her hand, returned to Zheng Fan's side, and said as if offering a treasure: "These are all ripe." ”

She twisted one and faced the sun, and the sunlight shone the melon crystal clear.

"When I was a child, I liked to eat this little climbing melon the most."

She wanted to give Zheng Fan a taste of the small fruit, but she was afraid that he would dislike it as a weed and wild fruit, and when she hesitated, she felt a cold finger.

Zheng Fan had already taken away the little climbing melon in her hand. He looked at this bulging, chubby, and at first glance plain, but when he looked at the cute little fruit, he felt that it was very cute, and it must have tasted very good.

"I'll taste it." He put the little climbing melon in his mouth, gritted his teeth, and popped the juice of the pulp and burst into his mouth. The flesh is also mixed with countless hard seeds, and you don't need to chew it, and you can swallow it with the rich juice.

However, if you want to talk about the taste, there is only a smell of grass, not sweet or fragrant, no taste.

"Is it delicious?" Zhang Nanyan looked at him expectantly.

Zheng Fan's mouth was full of pulp juice, and he couldn't speak, so he nodded.

Zhang Nanyan smiled happily: "When I was a child, I liked to eat the most, when I went to work in the field, I was thirsty and hungry, so I picked one and stuffed it into my mouth, which quenched my thirst." ”

Zheng Fan looked at Zhang Nanyan with pity, stretched out his hand, and said, "The more you taste it, the sweeter it feels, give me another one." ”

Zhang Nanyan found a few more wild jujube trees, and she rushed forward with excitement to pick them for Zheng Fan to taste.

The wild jujube tree grows on the hillside, and Zhang Nanyan climbed up in three steps and two steps, reaching out to carefully pick the red wild jujubes.

Zheng Fan rolled up his sleeves and went up to help.

Zhang Nanyan stood on a high place, turned around and laughed and said, "Don't come up, you are wearing leather shoes, and you will be filled with soil for a while." ”

Zheng Fan pretended to be dissatisfied: "What? Disgusted that I'm old? ”

"Hahaha...... Climb up and down or let me, a young man, come! ”

"Little girl looks down on the elderly? These small heights are not difficult for me. ”

Zheng Fan immediately stepped up.

Zhang Nanyan stopped joking, and hurriedly said: "Don't come up, the wild jujube trees are full of thorns, and it hurts to stab people." I grew up in the mountains, and I had thick skin, so I got used to it. You'll be waiting for me, soon. ”

As she spoke, Zhang Nanyan buried herself in picking, and put the picked ones into her pockets, and soon the two pockets on her coat were full.

"You let Jean, I'm down!"

Zhang Nanyan ran down from a high place and couldn't stop her steps.

Zheng Fan took a step forward, stretched out his arms, and took Zhang Nanyan, who rushed down, into his arms.

With the force of the rampage, Zhang Nanyan slammed into Zheng Fan's arms.

The heart is pounding, and the breath is wheezing.

She felt a pair of safe, powerful hands wrap around her waist.

flutter~

A stream of loess fell from the hillside with her footsteps.

Choking dust flies high.

Zhang Nanyan felt that she must be stupid. I don't feel choked on my nose, I don't feel confused, but I feel that the flying dust is as beautiful as fireworks.

Her eyes widened and she looked at Zheng Fan fixedly.

His eyes were calm and profound, they were the galaxy of years and wisdom, which made her admire and look up.

His brow furrowed, his eyes full of smiles, "Close your eyes." ”

"Huh?"

Zheng Fan stretched out his arm, protected her head, and pressed her into his arms.

After waiting for a while, the dust cleared.

Zheng Fan let go of Zhang Nanyan.

He reached out to brush the dirt from Zhang Nanyan's hair.

"Why are you stupid, you don't even know how to hide?"

He gently wiped the dust off her cheeks.

"Look, the little swallow has become a little flower cat."

Zhang Nanyan looked up, loving and trusting wholeheartedly.

Her hand crept into the hem of his shirt, grabbed it, and was reluctant to let go.

……

"Did you really run away?"

"Then can there be a fake? I watched the woman pull (lao) the luggage down the mountain, and before she went out for more than ten meters, the high heels were folded, and the suitcase rolled down the road! ”

"She must not lose her temper?"

"Hair, why don't you send it, it's a kick at Boss Xiao Chen, Boss Xiao Chen dodged, and the high heels flew out directly."

"Hahaha, should! After coming for a few days, every day is either the handkerchief covering her nose or an umbrella to cover the sun, why don't you see her have an opinion when she spends Xiao Chen's money? I don't like the dirty farm work, and I don't want to think that the money she spends is all earned from farming. ”

"Then is this going to be yellow again, Xiao Chen, this child, it's really not a good marriage, how much is this yellow."

"If you want me to say, Boss Xiao Chen's vision of finding a partner is not good, just want to find the city, college students, can other city girls be willing to come to farm? If you find a good girl in the countryside, the two husbands and wives will work together to make a fortune. ”

"Can't you, Boss Xiao Chen can take a fancy to rural people? I heard that this Xiao Chen's family used to be rich......

A sound of talking came from a short distance, and several women turned a corner and walked over.
