The man looked in the rearview mirror and turned his head slightly, he could see the woman's detached and cool expression, like a stream in the mountain stream in early spring, cool to the bones, natural.

Such a cold and dusty person is incompatible with this world, even if he is smoking a cigarette and doing mortal things, he makes people feel that he is not stained with dust.

"What are you doing in Qushui Village?" He could guess a thing or two from the conversation between the two just now.

"Volunteer teaching during the summer vacation." Xi Qing put his right leg down, and his left leg was put up again, and his toes flickered with the smoke, drawing a circle in the car.

"Are you a volunteer teacher?" Luo Li was a little excited, he was very in awe of this kind of person, and the image of a woman in his heart was a little more noble, and he continued: "How long are you going to teach here?" ”

"According to the contract, at least two months."

"Are you alone?" He asked curiously.

"I'm the only one in this issue, and there may be more in the future."

"Do you have an allocation of accommodation?"

"Hmm." Xi Qing snuffed out the cigarette butt on the iron wall on the side, and caught a glimpse of a trash can, she opened the door frame and threw it directly into the air, her movements were skillful, and half of the cigarette tail fell steadily into it.

The children who were playing on the side accidentally saw this scene, and for a moment they froze in place, and then ran to the bucket and looked in curiously.

The ground was uneven, there was still standing water, and the tricycle bumped from time to time, splashing the water.

The remnant sun on the horizon is trembling, rendering a small semi-sky, red and gorgeous, as if someone has lit a torch at the end of the sky, illuminating the world with red light like mist.

Half an hour later, Luo Li parked the car at the escrow, opened the door frame and said: "Qushui Village and Yunxi Town are separated by a river, and the bridge is still under construction, so we can only take a boat to go there." ”

"Hmm." Xi Qing got out of the car, carrying a bag on her shoulder, which was bulging, all of which were daily necessities she bought in the supermarket in the morning.

"I'll get it for you." The man smiled sincerely, and his peach eyes were like a pool of spring water, soft and clear, without a trace of impurities.

"No need." She strode towards the river, where she stood by the wind, squinting slightly, and could see a boat in the water, rushing back.

"Wait, the boat will arrive soon, usually there are few people out of the village, and a boat can't fit it." He stood beside her, the woman was petite, a head shorter than him, the breeze blew her thin clothes, making her look thinner, but not weak, she was like a bamboo, she could swing with the wind, but still strong and upright.

There was silence between the two for a while, and the boat finally arrived, and the captain, a middle-aged man, holding a rope-like thing in his hand, had anchored the boat firmly to the shore.

Xi lightly carried his bag, stepped up, paid three yuan at the window, and sat on the railing on the side, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked at the still calm water.

The river is as green as silk, cutting off the fireworks on both sides, like the Chu River and the Han boundary, clearly dividing the mountains and mountains.

Occasionally, a few silver-white fish will jump out of the water surface, draw a graceful arc in the air, and when they go down, they will hold on to half of the aquatic grass and drag it into the water, leaving only a swirling ripple, which is slightly deformed under the action of the current.

Luo Li has seen such a scene thousands of times, but it has never been eye-catching at this moment, the sultry summer breeze blows across the water, dyed with a faint coolness, and when it blows across his cheeks, it is like a light veil on his face, and he can smell a smell of tobacco in the haze.
