Chapter 13 Utu Meiren Township

"Master, Utu Miren get out of the car." Chen Mengchuan looked at the familiar place that was getting closer and closer in front of him.

"I know~~"

Zhao Wanyu looked at the desolation around her and asked, "Have you arrived?" ”

"It's almost there." Chen Mengchuan nodded.

After a big bend, the car passed a canal bridge and slowly stopped.

Chen Mengchuan put on his bag, dragged a large bag of things bought by the vocational school, and got out of the car.

Zhao Wanyu also staggered with the big bag, followed and got out of the car, and as far as the eye could see, there were only some scattered buildings on the side of the road near the parking surface, and a few scattered figures, and the other end of the road was completely deserted.

"What's the name of this place?" Zhao Wanyu pretended to be calm.

"Utu Meiren Township." Chen Mengchuan put down the big bag in his hand and looked at the houses in the north.

"You're looking at the bag here, I'm going to call someone." Chen Mengchuan commanded.

Although Zhao Wanyu was flustered, she still obediently said "um" and stood obediently on the side of the road.

Nearby, he found a courtyard with an open gate, and Chen Mengchuan walked in.

"Fellow, are you at home?"

"Who?" An old man came out of the house.

"This uncle, I'll go to Balegetu to deliver something, it's a little far away, and I will borrow a car from my uncle to help me deliver it." Chen Mengchuan smiled and handed over the cigarette, and lit the fire along the way.

"Balegetu, it has to be more than ten miles away, what do you want to send the baby?" The old man took a puff on his cigarette.

"Send some dolls with notebooks and pens, and some drawing, there are a lot of books, heavy, all left on the side of the road outside." Chen Mengchuan said with a smile.

"Zhong, you wait, I'll let my baby help you deliver it." The old man grinned.

"Uncle, how much do you think I give?"

The old man waved his hand and smiled and said, "What kind of money to give, do you send a book to the baby and collect the money?" ”

"How can that?" Chen Mengchuan said with a smile.

"Then what kind of money will I collect from you, you wait." After the old man had finished speaking, he went back to the house, and in a few moments a young man in a leather jacket came out of the house, wearing his belt as he went.

"Big brother, get in the car, I'll take you." The young man slid onto the tractor in the yard, pulled out the rocker, and started the tractor in two clicks.

The tractor was not big, Chen Mengchuan climbed into the back bucket and put down the backpack and handbag.

After driving out of the yard to the side of the road, Chen Mengchuan said to Zhao Wanyu: "I'll go to the mountains, will you still follow?" ”

"I'm not afraid of you." Zhao Wanyu said.

"Sister, you are so good-looking, are you from the city?" The young man jumped out of the car and smiled and helped Zhao Wanyu carry the big bag and luggage in her hand onto the back of the tractor.

Chen Mengchuan also struggled to lift the big bag to the back of the car.

"Brother, I'll come." The young man helped Chen Mengchuan lift the bag with all his might.

The two stood on the back of the car, and the tractor drove out "all in one", and soon drove into a dirt road to the southeast.

The speed of the tractor was not slow, and after driving for half an hour, it entered a village where dozens of families had gathered and stopped on the side of the road.

"Brother, it's here." The young man turned off the fire, walked to the back of the tractor, and helped move everything down.

Chen Mengchuan took a 100 piece and handed it to him: "Take the money." ”

Although the young man was greedy for the 100 yuan, he still shook his head: "My father knows and will break my leg." ”

"You take it, help me move this bag in, count your wages, won't you?" Chen Mengchuan smiled, the more barren the place, the more simple the people's hearts.

"Brother, I'll move in for you, I don't dare to ask you for wages." After saying that, he picked up the bag, carried it on his shoulder, and walked towards the village.

Chen Mengchuan also picked up his bag and followed. Although Zhao Wanyu in the back was a little flustered in this mountain village, she still gritted her teeth and followed behind Chen Mengchuan.

After entering the village, more memories of Chen Mengchuan also woke up little by little.

The three of them walked to the door of a large courtyard, and a large wooden sign was hung on the door, on which were written the words "Balegetu Primary School".

The door was open, Chen Mengchuan stood outside the door in a trance, took a deep breath, and walked in, and the young man with a big bag and Zhao Wanyu also walked in with Chen Mengchuan.

Seeing someone coming, a young woman stopped her lesson and walked out of the elementary school building.

"Hello."

He has short black hair, a somewhat thin figure, tanned skin, and a pair of firm eyes in a warm smile.

Chen Mengchuan was in a trance, as if he had traveled through a different time and space to see her again, with countless complicated emotions in his eyes.

"Hello, I'm Sonoko Ayase, a teacher at Balektu Elementary School, and it's a pleasure to meet you." Sonoko Ayase bowed 90 degrees to the three of them.

"Teacher Yuanzi, they're here to deliver a book and a pen." The young man put down the large bag on his shoulder.

"Are you from the island?" Zhao Wanyu was stunned and shook Ayase Sonoko's hand. She obviously couldn't imagine that a young woman from an island country would teach in such a barren mountain village.

Sonoko Ayase smiled at Zhao Wanyu and nodded, and her eyes fell on the silent Chen Mengchuan.

"I'm Sonoko Ayase, so please take care of me."

A thin hand reached out in front of him, mixing Chen Mengchuan's two memories.

"I'm Chen Mengchuan, please take care of me......" Chen Mengchuan's head floated with countless messy good and bad, happy and unhappy and a lot of pictures. The whole person looked a little stunned.

Although she was a little surprised by the man's emotions and expressions, Sonoko Ayase was still very happy, and there were a lot of notebooks and pens in the bag, as well as large sheets of white paper, paint, and brushes.

"Wait a minute, everyone!" After saying happily to the three of them, Sonoko Ayase ran back to the classroom and said something to the dozen or so children in the room.

Then more than a dozen children ran out in an uproar, lined up in a neat line from high to low, and walked in front of Chen Mengchuan and Zhao Wanyu one by one.

"Thank you, uncle and aunt!" After speaking, he bowed deeply to Chen Mengchuan.

"Thanksgiving!" Chen Mengchuan's eyes were sour, and he also bowed deeply to him.

Zhao Wanyu immediately followed suit.

"Thank you, uncle and aunt!" Take a bow.

"Thanksgiving!" Take a bow.

“……”

"Thanksgiving uncle and aunt~" When the 3-year-old child standing at the end bowed to the two of them in a milky voice, Zhao Wanyu was already crying out of shape.

"Thanksgiving!" Chen Mengchuan bowed back dignifiedly.

"Everyone, take it apart and see what gifts these two uncles and aunts have brought you!" Sonoko Ayase said happily to the children!

"Oh~~!" The courtyard resounded with the cheers of the children.

Looking at the garden of Ayase, which was smiling like a camellia, and a group of children who were as happy as the New Year, Chen Mengchuan's heart seemed to be full.

Zhao Wanyu on the side looked at Chen Mengchuan, and there was a group of children in Ayase Garden, and remembered Chen Mengchuan's words when she was on the plane, "A person who is very important to me." ”

Who is it? Is this Sonoko Ayase? But they apparently didn't know each other.

Near noon, at the strong request of Sonoko Ayase, all three of them stayed behind and had lunch with the children.

The children's lunch was brought by themselves, and the food of the four adults was brought by the villagers who heard the news.

Ordinary aluminum box, not much bacon diced white rice, wowotou, dried pickles, pickled radish scrambled eggs, mountain vegetable soup.

Chen Mengchuan ate very quietly.

"Auntie, this is for you." A boy ran over and put a piece of bacon into Zhao Wanyu's aluminum box.

"Auntie, mine is also for you......"

"Auntie, don't cry......"

"Auntie, don't cry, I'll give you this ......"

Zhao Wanyu was eating, and her tears kept falling.
