Chapter 4: Dreams
Ancheng is a mountain city in Guizhou, where the climate is pleasant, warm in winter and cool in summer, which is also a good place for many foreign tourists to escape the heat and cold.
Maybe it's the climate, maybe it's the time zone, it's the slow pace of life in this small southwestern city. It's eight o'clock in the morning, and this is known as the busiest street, and the shops are still tightly closed, and the street looks a little deserted.
Crowds of people come in twos and threes, sparse and lazy tourists, children playing and playing, wanderers huddled in a coal corner for the night, they are the first crowds to appear on this street......
At a remote intersection of this street, there is a snack bar, the store is very old, the seats are messily placed in the small shop, the small shop is full of people, a middle-aged man wearing a white hat and a blue apron, busy. In front of him, there was also a long queue of people, who were very patient and waited without hurry.
It can be seen that business is very good here, and the whole city seems to be gathered here.
Here are Anseong's unique breakfast snacks: delicious freshly ground soy milk, crispy fried dough sticks, and fried rice dumplings that are not greasy!
Wu Zhiyuan and Zheng Yong were among them, and their tables were filled with delicious food. Wu Zhiyuan took a sip of soy milk, and then kept watching Zheng Yong gobble it up, and couldn't help but smile.
"Brother Yuan, why don't you eat, didn't you like to eat here before?" Sensing that Wu Zhiyuan was looking at him, he raised his head and asked puzzledly.
"Seeing that you are still eating so deliciously, I am also relieved that you are out this time!" Wu Zhiyuan smiled slightly.
Zheng Yong frowned slightly, he didn't understand what he meant, but then he smiled again and ate a lot.
He doesn't think much, when he is with Wu Zhiyuan, what Wu Zhiyuan says, what he does. This is his best buddy, he firmly believes that he will not harm him, on the contrary, he has been taking care of him and carrying things for him, so he has always obeyed Wu Zhiyuan. If he hadn't heard that Wu Zhiyuan was coming back from Shanghai, he would have left long ago.
Early this morning, he pulled Wu Zhiyuan to have breakfast with great interest, because he was about to leave this familiar land and go to an unknown distance, and he had a full meal with Wu Zhiyuan, and he had confidence in his heart......
Not long after, the food on the table was swept away by Zheng Yong, he grinned and said, "It's so fragrant, I don't know when I will be able to eat it after I leave."
"Go out and work hard, there's a lot of good food!" Wu Zhiyuan handed him a tissue and asked seriously, "What are you going to do in Zhejiang?" ”
"Brother Yuan, don't you know, you haven't been in the past two years, I have followed a carpentry master and learned a good craft, I want to rely on this craft to conquer the whole world and please a good wife." Zheng Yong said hehehe, a little proud.
"That's it, ask for a mother-in-law and conquer the world! But there's nothing wrong with that, keep trying! He was a little relieved, and a little sighed, his brother who was once a tiger has grown up.
Zheng Yong was very happy when he heard Wu Zhiyuan's encouragement, and then showed a worried look and asked, "Brother Yuan, are you okay?" ”
"It's okay, what can I do?"
"It's all right!" He was still not at ease.
"What can it be, who am I? Your brother, you can rest assured to go and fight to break through the world, I will be proud of you! ”
"Hmmm! I will definitely try my best! Then he remembered something, "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, this is the woman's mobile phone number, I sent it to you, you decide if you don't see her!" ”
Zheng Yong picked up his phone and sent him a number.
"Well, let's go! The time is almost up! ”
At Anseong Railway Station, a train came slowly, Zheng Yong picked up his luggage and walked onto the train.
His luggage was simple, just a few pieces of carry-on clothes. The moment he stepped on the train, a smell of instant noodles came to his face, Zheng Yong raised his eyebrows, then smiled, turned back to Wu Zhiyuan and said loudly: "Brother Yuan, I'm leaving!" ”
……
Sichuan, Daliang Mountain. An ancient village with dense mountains and lush greenery. The sun was rising, the wind was mild, the birds were singing in the woods, and even the roses on the side of the dirt road were smiling brightly.
Two young girls came out of the village. One of them is a young girl, she has short hair, she is cute and cute. She followed a young girl. This girl carried a basket on her back, and her face was delicate and lovely. With cheerful steps, they walked toward the winding river.
Crossing the rickety chain bridge, their footsteps stopped on the bank of the river not far below the bridge. There were several large, smooth rocks, on which two young girls sat peacefully.
Su Xiaoying was very happy, she ate a fragrant Yi family firewood-flavored meat last night, and she also had a fragrant dream. Seeing that Chen Xi didn't speak, she picked up small stones by the river from time to time and threw them into the river, splashing white water, which caused her to laugh coquettishly.
Chen Xi sat on the bank, looking at the flowing river, and lost his mind for a while.
She had a strange dream last night, and in the endless savannah, she lost her way. Suddenly, a young man on a steed appeared beside her. She couldn't see him clearly, only a scar looming on his face.
But she didn't seem to be scared at all, she followed him like a ghost. The man spotted her and tried to pull her on the horse. She stretched out her hands, but she couldn't reach him......
She felt a little uneasy, she didn't sleep well last night, and her eyes were still a little red and swollen until now, and she was a little frightened when she remembered that dream!
"Hey! Sister Chen Xi, what's wrong? Looking at Chen Xi, whose face was a little pale, Su Xiaoying asked nervously.
"Oh! It's nothing! Chen Xi finally came back to his senses, "Come, Xiaoying, help me take out the clothes on my back, there are a lot of clothes, you have worked hard." ”
"Okay! It's the first time I've done laundry by the river! Su Xiaoying became cheerful.
The two maidens were immediately busy, soaking their clothes in the water, and then scooping them up one by one, placing them on the smooth stones, kneading them with their hands and beating them with sticks.
For a moment, the sound of percussion and the sound of running water merge and intertwine into a cheerful symphony.
Su Xiaoying's eyebrows were already covered with beads of sweat, she was a little tired, and sat on the stone. muttered: "Sister Chen Xi, have you been washing clothes like this here?" ”
"Yes! That's the condition. ”
"Buy a washing machine, it's convenient for uncles and aunts to be at home, and you don't have to work so hard."
"I thought about it too, but it wasn't accessible. Besides, it costs a lot of electricity, and the elderly are not happy! Ay! My parents are also old, so every time I come home, the first thing I do is do my laundry! ”
Su Xiaoying couldn't answer, she only felt a little sour in her heart, thought for a while and asked, "Sister Chen Xi, what major are you going to study in college!" What are your dreams? ”
"Prepare to study politics and law!" Chen Xi said without thinking about it.
"Why? I thought you wanted to learn music or dance! ”
"I want to change here! It's so remote that you close your eyes and listen. Here and outside, it's like two worlds, you can't see me, I can't see you, I want to do something for my hometown. Chen Xi's face was resolute and continued, "If you want to change a person, you must first change your thinking, but to change a place, you need to engage in politics, ask for the people's lives, build roads, build bridges, and build schools!" When the traffic improves and the level of education increases, the place will become better and better! ”
"You really think far, little sister admires!" Su Xiaoying smiled skillfully.
"I'm a girl from the mountains, I'll tell you this, and when others hear it, it's just a joke!" Chen Xi laughed at himself.
"Don't say that, where there's a will, there's a way!" Su Xiaoying blinked her big eyes.
"So I must have no distractions this time and strive for a good score in the college entrance examination!" Chen Xi said firmly, looking up at the clear blue sky, the sun unconsciously climbed overhead.
She muttered to herself: "My dream, far away!" ”
