Chapter 61: Strange Young Man
"It's okay!" He said these three words neatly, and then, a smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
I glanced at him just now, and I thought it was a little familiar, and I thought it was just an illusion. However, when he said these three words, I suddenly felt that his voice was also somewhat familiar.
What's going on?
Actually, this person doesn't look very old, he looks like he is about 20 years old, and he shouldn't be as old as me. However, there is an inscrutable feeling between his eyebrows and eyes, he gives people an illusion, an oppressive momentum, and a mature temperament that he should not have at this age.
"Who are you looking for when you come to our village?" I asked tentatively.
As soon as I asked, a smile immediately appeared on his face again, the very sunny kind, which looked so handsome, but this handsomeness was indescribably weird.
"That's right, I'm here to find the village chief of Yangjiazhuang, Zhu Danian, village chief Zhu!" When he said this, he paused, he looked left and right, and continued: "You should also be from this village, can you help me introduce me?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, and then I remembered to go to the vegetable field to pluck green onions.
"Well, wait a minute, I'll pluck two green onions, and I'll take you to his house in a while!" I said, but I was a little curious in my heart, what did such a young man do to find Zhu Danian?
"Okay, thank you!" He said, just standing there and waiting, staring in the direction of our village while waiting. I stole a glance at him, and felt an indescribable feeling in his gaze, a little uncomfortable.
I didn't think much about it, the vegetable patch was next to me, I rushed over and plucked the green onions, and then took him to the village.
Why does that face look familiar?
Who the hell is he?
I was thinking about this question all the way, and he suddenly said: "Yangjiazhuang is very beautiful, much more beautiful than I imagined." ”
"Yes, at least there is no noise in the city, by the way, you wait here, I will send the things back and take them to your house, now the village chief should still go to the brigade courtyard, and he should not be found in the village committee!" After I finished speaking, I ran towards my yard, put the green onions in the kitchen, and went out.
With this person, walk in the direction of the stage, and you will pass the brigade courtyard in the middle, but, as I thought, this point has not yet opened.
After going to the brigade courtyard, it didn't take long to reach Zhu Danian's house.
However, when the brigade yard goes to Zhu Danian's house, there will be a wasteland in the middle, which is overgrown with grass and grass, which is actually Li Aiguo's house back then. No one dared to build a house there, and no one dared to farm there, so it was abandoned, and some of the ruins of the year can still be seen, but almost all of them were entangled in weeds and vines.
As the young man came here, he stopped.
He looked over there for a moment, and he asked, "Why is this place deserted?" ”
I didn't expect him to be interested in this, so I said, "It's nothing, there used to be a fire in one house, and the house burned down, and after a long time, it became like this." ”
Of course, I certainly can't tell an outsider like him the details of ten years ago.
"A fire in the house? That...... Did the family get out of the way? He asked, frowning slightly.
I really didn't expect him to ask in such detail, and I didn't think there was any need to answer any further, so I wanted to divert the subject and say, "That...... I don't know, I was still young, more than ten years old. By the way, not far ahead is the village chief's house, I'll take you there! ”
He didn't continue to ask, but nodded slightly.
Then, I took this young man to Zhu Danian's house, in fact, I think it's quite strange, why is he so interested in Li Aiguo's abandoned house?
When I took him to Zhu Danian's house, he even looked back several times.
When I arrived at Zhu Danian's house, I went over and knocked on the door. After more than ten minutes, Zhu Danian opened the door, and when he saw that it was me, he said: "Ouch, Fanwa, why is it so early, what's the matter, sit in the house!" ”
I hurriedly shook my head, and I said, "Uncle Nian, I won't go, but this morning I went to the vegetable field at the entrance of the village, and I happened to see him, and he said that you have something to do with the village chief." ”
The young man immediately walked here, stretched out his hand to shake hands with Zhu Danian, and then said, "Hello village chief, I'm really sorry to come here to disturb you so early!" My name is Li Qing, and you should have my resume, which is the volunteer teacher. ”
Zhu Danian stared at this young man who called himself Li Qing and was a little stunned, he just stood there as if he had been captured.
It turned out that he was the volunteer teacher, I thought he was, maybe he had been busy with my grandfather's affairs recently, and he had never paid attention to it. It is true that Zhu Danian also mentioned before that the volunteer teacher is already coming, but everyone has not paid attention to it.
However, Li Qing should not have called the village head Zhu Danian, otherwise Zhu Danian would not have known about the coming of the volunteer teacher.
Seeing Zhu Danian in a daze, I went over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Uncle Danian, people are talking to you!" ”
Zhu Danian came back to his senses at this time, his eyes were a little strange, and he said: "It's Teacher Li Qing, in this way, you wait a minute, I'll go get something, and you can go to the brigade courtyard with me to fill out the form later." ”
Li Qing nodded, and Zhu Danian was about to go back to the house to get something.
I thought, since everyone has already been brought over, I am ready to go back, the volunteer teacher is here, and I will hold a small welcome ceremony with Miao Xiaoyu and the children in the morning, which is the school's rule.
I was about to leave, but Zhu Danian shouted: "Fanwa, you wait a while, don't leave yet, wait a while and go to the brigade courtyard with me, you are a substitute teacher at the school, and you can be regarded as the principal, and he must have your signature when he joins the company." ”
I almost squirted, before Miao Xiaoyu came, I was the only teacher in the school, so I was indeed the acting principal. This is true, but when Zhu Danian said it, it felt particularly funny.
In fact, signing is just a process, and it is not so urgent.
And when Zhu Danian turned around, he still winked at me, feeling weird, I don't know what he meant.
Zhu Danian's return to the house actually rolled a few scallion pancakes, gave me one, and gave the other to Li Qing, but he didn't answer. When I went to the brigade courtyard, I filled out the form and kept the file, and there was nothing else, so I just signed the position of the acting village head.
After finishing the work, Zhu Danian said that he would let Li Qing rest in the house first, and said that Principal Yang was also busy all morning, and he was going out to see me off. Actually, I can already guess that Zhu Danian has something to say to me.
He took me out of the brigade courtyard all the way to the stage, and then Zhu Danian said: "Fanwa, do you think this Li Qing is a little weird?" ”
I nodded immediately, feeling a little weird from the first time I saw him, which is undeniable.
"What's wrong, Uncle Nian, do you see something?" I asked, in fact, my heart was also a little drumming, because Li Qing's behavior was really strange when he entered our village, especially when he passed by Li Aiguo's abandoned old house.
"Yes, Fanwa, you're pretty smart, I don't believe you can't see it!" Zhu Danian said, he looked at me.
"What can you see? Uncle Nian, if you have anything to say, just say it! I said, in fact, I was already doubting something in my heart, but I couldn't be sure.
"Li Qing and Li Aiguo, both surnamed Li, from his appearance and his voice, they are also similar to Li Aiguo." Zhu Danian finally said it, and this is where I suspected.
I nodded, and suddenly it felt like things were starting to get weirder.
The above suddenly approved two volunteer teachers, this matter is definitely not that simple. At that time, Zhu Danian was overjoyed when he took the approval document, and now his face began to have gloom.
"Back then, there was a fire in Li Aiguo's house in the middle of the night, and the body of Li Aiguo's son was not found." Zhu Danian continued, his expression a little distorted.
"Could it be a coincidence?" I asked, in fact, I don't believe my own words, how can there be so many coincidences, I just said this to make it easier for Zhu Danian.
"I hope so!" Zhu Danian said with a long sigh.
"Village Chief Zhu, what do you want?" A voice suddenly came from behind, startling Zhu Danian and me almost at the same time.
Zhu Danian and I turned around at the same time and saw Li Qing standing there, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and there was a bit of gloom in his smile.
At that moment, I felt like I saw Li Aiguo ten years ago.
