He Tu led Xiuhan to a stop on a field. Along the way, Xiuhan, who was dressed beautifully, attracted the attention of many people, and stopped in the field at this time, and almost everyone put down the work in their hands and straightened up to look at her. Xiuhan wore sunglasses, his eyes wandered around the vast field, and finally saw that familiar figure. Before she could wave her hand, the figure rushed over and stopped in front of them with a smirk. He turned his eyes away from him, twisted the corner of his clothes and walked to a tree not far away to wait. Zhu Hai looked at her suspiciously, eager to talk to her in the past, but was stopped by Xiu Han, and asked with a smile, "Why are you going?" ”

Zhu Hai returned absentmindedly: "When did you come?" I haven't seen you in a long time. His gaze remained on Hedi, although Hedi had turned away from him.

"Long time no see." Xiuhan learned his tone and said, "It's been a long time since I haven't seen me like this, you don't even look at me." ”

Only then did Zhu Hai shift his gaze back to Xiu Han, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, looking up and down a little rudely like those who frequently looked back at Xiu Han.

"I heard you're writing to us?"

Zhu Hai's pupils suddenly widened, his dark face turned red, and he said hesitantly: "How do you know ......?"

"Not only do I know, I watch it." Xiuhan smiled proudly, "I didn't expect your love writing to be so good, the writing is so good." ”

"Don't make fun of me, I learned this from books." Zhu Hai suddenly asked eagerly, "What does she think—"

"She's younger than you, and she doesn't understand anything, and your letter almost scared her out." Xiuhan lowered his voice, "If you don't get busy after a while, go to my grandma's house, you know where it is, right?" It's better for you to talk to her face to face than to write back and forth in a letter. ”

"Really?" Zhu Hai's eyes widened excitedly, "Then I'll go when the sun sets!" Now I have to help with the work in the field, and I can't leave for a while. ”

Xiuhan nodded, turned around and walked away, without even saying goodbye. She felt a little sorry for others in her heart, and she was evaluating this person in her heart at this moment. It was only when he walked up to Hetu that he nodded slowly and said to himself, "This person is okay." ”

"Are you alright?" He Tu looked at her, his eyes full of anticipation and impatience.

"Alright." Xiuhan smiled at her, "Let's go back." ”

Time becomes unusually slow in waiting. He Di chatted with Xiuhan for a while, and then went back to prepare dinner for his family. She was absent-mindedly reconciled, and grabbed a large handful of alkali in the jar with her hand and was about to sprinkle it, but was quickly grabbed by Herui, who came back early. He Rui looked at He Di in a daze coldly, shook off her hand, and mocked: "You want to sprinkle all this jar of alkali and let us eat noodles and knock out our teeth, right?" ”

"Oh." He shook off most of the alkali in a panic, still struggling to reconcile the noodles. After a while, Jiafu and Cuiying came back, and everyone silently packed up their things, washing their faces, washing their feet, and changing their clothes. There was no sound in the room except the sound of rustling, and there was a kind of suppressed despair in people's hearts. Suddenly, Cuiying asked Hetu: "I heard that He Xiuhan is here today?" ”

He Tu woke up from his contemplation and nodded repeatedly.

"I just said that no one else will talk about anyone else behind her back except her." Cuiying raised her hand to stop Jiafu's action of talking, and said contemptuously, "She went to the field today to find a man, everyone saw it, how old people began to hook up with others, and they also pulled and pulled, how ugly." ”

He Tu wanted to defend himself, but his mouth opened, but he didn't say a word. She was suddenly a little afraid that someone had seen her, she peeked at her mother's expression, and found that there was no blame on that face, so her mind settled slightly.

"That's right." Cuiying threw down the dusty shirt she had changed, "I heard from others that Hexin's father-in-law and mother-in-law had a car accident and left, have you heard about it?" Without waiting for Jiafu to answer, she turned her head again and asked Hetu quickly, "You called your sister that day, did your sister tell you about it?" ”

He Tu shook his head blankly, "No, she didn't say anything." I said that my father asked her to come back, but she only said that there were still some things to deal with at home, so she didn't say anything. ”

"You see, if there's something to deal with, that's it." Cuiying patted her thigh, with a look of regret and anger, "If there is anything you can't tell us about this, you still hide it." No wonder I see that Lao Liu hasn't been to the field in the past few days, and his expression is very decadent. ”

"What you hear isn't necessarily true, so don't talk nonsense." Jiafu wiped his face with a towel, "I'll call the baby after dinner later, maybe there's something unspeakable." ”

"I look at Liu Ji's kid well, but he is very assertive, and he hides everything in his heart and doesn't say anything. We Hexin are simple-minded and obedient, you should ask carefully, don't lose our daughter. ”

"Got it. Let's eat. Jiafu sat down at the table, and Hetu brought the noodles one by one, and sat beside his mother and ate absentmindedly.

"Why is the dough so hard?" Cuiying took a bite and complained, "Hedi, are you spilling too much alkali?" ”

"If I hadn't seen it, I'm afraid she would have spilled that jar of alkali." He Rui said angrily, "I don't know what I'm thinking." ”

"You don't have much to do with that Xiuhan in the future, as soon as she comes, your mind is gone." Emerald Shadow frowned and glared at Hetu. He Tu swallowed the noodles in his mouth and defended, "Xiuhan came to her only when I asked her to come, and I like to stay with her." ”

"Oh, she taught you how to talk back to adults, didn't she?" Cui Ying's face suddenly became gloomy, "I'll teach you to be bad." ”

"Eat more and talk less." Jiafu reprimanded, "The big and the small are not sensible. ”

Everyone kept their mouths shut and ate with their hearts and minds. The meal was so tasteless that it was almost impossible to eat. As soon as the bowl was empty, Jiafu got up and left. When Harmony goes out and doesn't know who to play with, Cuiying goes back to the back room to sew up her torn socks for Jiafu, while Harmony washes dishes in the kitchen. After washing the dishes, she wiped her hands and said to her mother a little timidly, "I'll go find Xiuhan." ”

"What are you looking for her?" Cuiying glared at her again, "Don't go." ”

"She's here specifically for me, and I can't leave her alone." Hedi's courage suddenly increased, and the scene of Zhu Hai waiting for her appeared in her mind, and her heart was too urgent.

"You're disobedient, aren't you?" Cui Ying stood up suddenly, and quickly searched the room, "It seems that if I don't beat you, you are really disobedient!" ”

"I'm looking for Xiuhan, not looking for someone else." He was about to cry, "Her house is down there, and I don't go anywhere else." ”

"You go out and listen to what the people in the village say about her, and you still associate with her, aren't you afraid that one day others will say the same about you? At that time, you will be shameless, and we will still have face! ”

"Xiuhan didn't do anything wrong again, why can't I have anything wrong with her!"

Cui Ying was choked by Hetu's words for a while, she stared, her gaze burned on Hedi's face like fire, and after a while she said, "If you go, don't enter this door again!" ”

"If you don't enter, you won't enter!" He turned around and opened the curtain and ran. Tears flowed down her face, cooled by the autumn wind. It was dark outside, and only the afterglow of the setting sun was still on the horizon. Seeing the door of Grandma He's house from a distance, Hedi's heart seemed to suddenly belong, and his steps accelerated even more.

The door was ajar, and around the shadow wall, he could see the faint light of the candles burning in the windows of the room. The village has long been electrified, but Grandma He's house is usually unoccupied, so there is no wire, and if you sleep here at night, you can only use candles. He Tu wiped his tears and stepped into the threshold with a single-minded grievance, and Xiuhan was sitting on the edge of the table plucking the strings of his guitar.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing Hedi's red and swollen eyes and tears on her face, Xiuhan hurriedly stood up, she wiped Hedi's tears with the sleeve of her white shirt, and asked with concern. He was sobbing and choking, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Who bullied you?" Xiuhan asked again, and she pulled Hetu to sit down on the chair next to the table, and looked at Hedi's face by the light.

"Oh my mother." He took a deep breath and softened his sobbing movement slightly, "She said bad things about you. ”

Xiuhan sneered, "What bad things did she say about me?" ”

"She said those unpleasant things, they were all rumors, and when she heard them from the village, she took them seriously."

"It's okay." Xiuhan stroked Hedi's back and smiled comfortingly, "I don't care about those words, besides, your mother seems to have always been a little prejudiced against me, and I'm used to it." But you're not just crying because of that, are you? ”

"If it's because of something else, I won't cry, I can't stand people saying bad things about you." Hedi's voice suddenly became louder, as if he was hiding something inside.

Xiuhan's face was filled with emotion. She hugged Hetu and said with a smile: "Seriously, although those words will make people unhappy, I am very happy that you treat me like this." Okay, don't cry, you're crying so ugly, how will you see Zhu Hai when he comes? ”

As if she had been electrocuted, she bounced off her chair, and she quickly shook her head to look left and right, and asked urgently, "Is he coming?" ”

"Not yet." Xiuhan stretched out his hand and pulled her to sit down, "You didn't see that my door is open." As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden pop in the window, as if someone had thrown a stone at it.

"I think it's coming now." Xiuhan stood up and walked outside, winking at Hetu as he turned his head, "Hurry up and wipe your face." ”

He Tu hurriedly lifted the hem of his clothes, wiped his eyes so-so, and straightened his hair. She stared nervously at the door, waiting for the moment the man stepped through it. After waiting for a long time, her heart was almost stone, and the curtain was suddenly lifted, and a tall but thin body walked in, and Hedi's heart came to life again, beating violently.

Zhu Hai stood in front of Hetu nervously, the first time he saw her in such a closed environment, and with a very clear purpose, which made him feel so nervous that he could barely speak.

He Tu lowered his head to hide his blushing face, pointed to the chair next to him, and whispered, "You can sit down." ”

Zhu Hai sat down cautiously.

He Tu looked at the door and saw that Xiuhan had closed the door outside. She became more nervous, even if she was just sitting, she felt that her movements were wrong, and she wanted to correct it, but she didn't dare to move, and she felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

"You-" There was silence for a while, and Zhu Hai finally spoke, "Have you eaten?" ”

He laughed when he heard the question, he always asked her that. Her smile seemed to ease the atmosphere in the room, and Zhu Hai also touched the back of his head and laughed, with a hint of coquettishness in his tone, "Did you eat it?" ”

"Eat." He Tu turned his head and held back a smile, "It's so late, I'm sure I'll eat it." What about you? ”

"I haven't." Zhu Hai touched his stomach embarrassedly, "I didn't go back, I kept waiting under the tree over there for dark." ”

"Are you hungry now?" He Tu glanced at him quickly, and lowered his head again, "I'll go back and get you two steamed buns." ”

"I'm not hungry, I don't feel hungry when I see you." Zhu Hai suddenly approached her, "You are my food." ”

"What do you say?" He Tu stood up and walked to the edge of the kang and looked at him from afar. The candle could only illuminate the surroundings of the table, but the side of the kang was vague, "Don't say such things, my goosebumps are about to fall to the ground." ”

"Then I won't talk about it later. Whatever you like to hear, you tell me, and I'll tell you. ”

"I don't like to hear anything." He Tu squirmed and said, "What are you going to say tonight?" ”

"I-" Zhu Hai paused, "Have you read all my letters?" ”

He Tu nodded, and suddenly realized that Zhu Hai might not be able to see it, so he hummed in a low voice.

"Those are the words I want to say, they are all from my heart, and none of them are false, do you understand?"

"I don't understand." Hedi's face turned even redder with shame.

"Hetu." Zhu Hai's voice suddenly became trembling, "I, I like to stay with you, I feel happy to see you, I, I want to stay with you forever." After saying this, he looked nervously and excitedly in the direction of Hedi, but did not hear any answer from her. He couldn't help feeling anxious, and he got up and sat down again, but he didn't dare to walk over to her.

"Why don't you speak?" Zhu Hai waited patiently for a while, and finally couldn't hold back and asked.

"I don't know what to say." Hedi's voice came from the darkness, and it seemed a little muffled.

"Would you like to, then?" Zhu Hai's mood became impatient again, and he slowly moved in the direction of Hedi.

"Yes." There was pleasure and shyness in Hedi's voice, and she hid her body even more into the darkness as she saw him coming towards her.

Zhu Hai stopped in front of her, wiped his hand on the corner of his clothes, and suddenly grabbed her pair of soft and seemingly boneless little hands. Hedi's heart skipped a beat, and the feeling of being struck by electricity returned to her. She leaned limply against the wall, as if she couldn't stand.

"I'm really happy." Zhu Hai's voice was above her head, and the warm breath sprayed on her bare scalp with split hair, bringing a tingling sensation.

She was so nervous that she felt happy and scared at the same time, and her hand instinctively struggled. Zhu Hai held it tighter, lowered his head and said, "Shall we go and sit over there?" I want to talk to you. ”

"Okay." He replied quickly, and finally broke free of his hand, and ran to the table and sat down as if he had run away.

After the thin layer of window paper between the two people was pierced, they finally became speechless. Zhu Hai told her about the situation at home, his own life and his own mood, and he listened carefully, as if he wanted to imprint all his information into his mind. In the end, Zhu Hai began to ask her, but she became distracted and refused to say a word. Zhu Hai stretched out his hand and grabbed her hand again, and said with a smile: "If you have anything to say in the future, you will say it to me, even if you scold me, I will not be angry." ”

"I'm scolding you for no reason." He let him grasp his hand, no longer struggling, but still keeping his head down.

"I mean, as long as you talk to me, even if you scold me, I feel happy."

He sneered, "You're such a strange person, and you like to be scolded." ”

"That's also a division of people." Zhu Hai's tone became arrogant, "I only like to be scolded by you." ”

He glanced at him. Zhu Hai's heart seemed to have been hit by something, he stared at her face blankly, speechless for a while.

He Tu was very uncomfortable by his gaze, and asked writhingly, "Why do you keep looking at me?" ”

"I love watching you." Zhu Hai said dumbfoundedly, "You are so good-looking." ”

He plucked up the courage to look back into his eyes, but he always lowered his head after not holding out for two seconds. For her, his eyes were even more magical, as if she would be sucked in for a second more and never get out. He Tu felt a burst of heartbeat, but pretended to be angry and shook the hand he was holding, and said, "Look at it again, I'll leave." ”

"Okay, don't look at it." Zhu Hai hurriedly looked away, but still peeked at her from time to time.

The two of them are talking with each other, and they are both enjoying the good times when they are together now. He Di felt very happy, she felt so happy for the first time since she was born, and she also felt that time passed so fast, and not long after, Xiuhan knocked on the door outside. Zhu Hai stood up to open the door, but He Tu took his hand and looked at him beggingly.

"I'll open the door and I'll be right back." Zhu Hai looked at her with pity and patted her hands. Only then did he let go, and his eyes were still looking at his figure reluctantly. Xiuhan walked in, his teasing gaze turned on the two of them, and asked with a smile, "How are you talking?" ”

He Tu lowered his head with a smile and didn't speak, Zhu Hai looked at Xiuhan gratefully and said, "Thank you." ”

"It's okay, no thanks." Xiuhan waved his hand, sat down beside Hedi, and put his arm around her shoulder, "Hedi's friend is my friend, Hedi's affairs are my business, and Hedi's affairs are my affairs, no matter what, I will try my best to help." She suddenly lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "You can come every night, as long as I'm here." ”

"Xiuhan!" He Tu pretended to be annoyed and pushed Xiu Han, not daring to look at Zhu Hai's expression, and buried his head on Xiu Han's shoulder.

Zhu Hai almost gave Xiuhan a bow. He seized this hard-won opportunity, and planned to find time to meet with Hetu in the evening, no matter how busy he was. It was already late at night, and it was time for him to leave, so he said goodbye to the two of them, and his eyes looked back and forth at Hedi, who turned his head away from him, full of reluctance.

"Let's go, your family is worried about going back late." Xiuhan said.

"Then I'm leaving." Zhu Hai took one last look at Hetu, and then turned around and walked out of the house. He Tu looked up violently, and there were tears in his eyes. This moment of separation was like a knife cutting her heart, how she wanted to stay with him forever, why did the hateful time pass so quickly.

Xiuhan sent Zhu Hai out of the door, and when he came back, he saw that Hedi was still sitting on the chair, so he laughed and said, "What, you missed him as soon as he left?" ”

"You know joke people." He Tu pretended to be angry and stood up to leave, but was pulled by Xiuhan. He shook his head and looked haughtily into the air.

"You don't thank me, and you're still angry with me, I really don't know how to be grateful."

"Thank you!" He Tu rubbed Xiuhan's face with his hands and said with a smile, "I'll bring you something delicious tomorrow." ”

"Good! I want to eat the noodles you make, the noodles you make are invincible in the world, and you will never be able to eat better noodles anywhere else. Xiuhan said happily, and she made a drooling expression, which made her laugh. While they were fighting with each other, the door panel suddenly creaked and a person stepped in through the door. The two looked back, and it turned out to be Herui. She stood at the door and looked at the two of them expressionlessly, and said to Hedi, "Mom told you to go back." ”

"If I don't go back, I'm going to sleep here tonight!" He Tu was bold at night because he pushed his mother's mouth, and said confidently.

"Mom said that if you don't go back, she will come to pull you personally." After He Rui finished speaking, he looked at Xiuhan with a contemptuous and contemptuous gaze, turned around and left. He Tu pouted and turned his head to look at Xiuhan, and said unhappily: "I want to sleep with you, I want to talk to you." ”

"You go back first, make it clear to your mother, and it's not too late to come back." Xiuhan persuaded, "Don't do something because of anger, it's easy to cause misunderstanding." ”

"Okay." He Tu turned around and walked slowly towards the door, "Don't sleep yet, I'll run down and tell you if I come to your side or not." ”

"Don't worry, I'll practice two tunes, you can go." Xiuhan sat down, holding his guitar in his hand. He nodded, turned and sped away.
