The last train from the countryside to the county seat was four o'clock, and the three of them took this bus back.

Along the way, Jiang Huaining did not speak, and sat in the window seat.

On this side are three seats in a row, Shen Huan sits in the middle, and Shen Li sits on the very edge, his eyes glance past Shen Huan from time to time to glance at Jiang Huaining.

The cap on his head was pressed low, the brim of the hat was shaded, revealing only a well-defined chin, the back of his neck resting on the back of the chair, half-asleep.

Shen Li's mind flashed the picture of him and Lu Zhu under the osmanthus tree, and sighed silently.

Jiang Huaining is too smart, even if she asks sideways, he may see the clues, so he simply holds all the doubts in his heart and doesn't ask anything.

When they arrived at the county seat, they went home.

Jiang Huaining ate late for lunch and had no appetite for dinner, so he sat at the dining table with his parents, occasionally sandwiched a chopstick dish, and chatted about some study matters.

Jiang Xuewen found a vacancy and said: "Squatting at home all the time is not a long-term solution, I want to find something to do." ”

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment, Sun Jingfang put down her chopsticks and looked up at her husband: "What do you want to do?" ”

Jiang Xuewen coughed lightly, and first made a clear account with her: "Huaining is only in his second year of high school, and there are many places to spend money to study in college in the future, and the family's savings are not enough to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life. ”

Jiang Huaining interjected: "I can work and study part-time in college, don't be too stressed." ”

"Tsk, you kid, listen to me first, I didn't mean that." Jiang Xuewen said earnestly, "Your mother and I both know that you are motivated, and you haven't bothered the two of us since you were a child. I mean, I'm not even fifty, and it's not like I can't move my hands and feet, so it's not a matter of being idle. ”

Jiang Huaining and Sun Jingfang glanced at each other, and Sun Jingfang asked, "Do you have a plan?" ”

"I've heard people say that in Ludian Township, at the bottom of Yunshan County, there is a beautiful blue water pool, which is undeveloped. I want to build a resort at the foot of the mountain and develop the local tourism economy. Of course, I haven't visited that place yet, so I don't know what the specific situation is and whether it can be implemented. When Jiang Xuewen said this, there was a light of hope in his eyes, dispelling the haze of the past, "At present, there is only a rough idea, and the follow-up work may have to be approved by the government, and the process is not so simple." ”

It was such a coincidence.

Jiang Huaining has only been to Bishuitan today.

Sun Jingfang has no objection to her husband's idea of starting a business again, her only concern is money: "Do we have enough money in our hands?" You have to invest a lot of money in the early stage of opening a resort villa, and whether you can return to the capital in the later stage depends on two words. In another year, Huaining will be in his third year of high school, and I don't want to make too much turmoil at home. ”

Jiang Xuewen hesitated slightly, obviously had concerns about this, pondered for a moment, and honestly said his plan: "I will definitely not be able to rely on me alone, when the time comes, I will have to pull investment and find someone to join the shares." ”

Sun Jingfang didn't speak for a while.

At the beginning, he opened a plastic company in Beicheng and partnered with others, but because he didn't know people clearly, he was calculated by others in the end, and he was almost imprisoned in prison.

The atmosphere at the dinner table became silent, and after a while, Jiang Huaining spoke up, and the stagnant atmosphere tore a gap: "The scenery of Bishuitan is good, you can try it." ”

Jiang Xuewen and Sun Jingfang looked at him at the same time, and Jiang Xuewen said with great interest: "Do you think it is feasible?" Hey, no, how do you know about Bishuitan? ”

"It just so happened that I went there with Shen Huan today."

Jiang Huaining talked about the environment around Bishuitan in general, he didn't climb the second peak, and he didn't know what the scenery above was, so he skipped it for the time being.

Lu Zhu said that the locals go to Bishuitan several times a year, which has almost become a fixed project during the New Year's holidays, and the construction of a resort can not only provide services to locals, but also attract tourists from other places, and there is indeed room to play.

Jiang Xuewen was encouraged: "Then I'll give it a try." ”

Their father and son hit it off, and Sun Jingfang could only rely on them.

——

After wasting a day, Lu Zhu lit the lamp at night to catch up with the homework.

A few osmanthus flowers were inserted in the blue glass bottle on the desk, and a faint fragrance lingered throughout the room. After Lu Zhu finished writing a question, he stopped writing, held his cheeks and looked at it quietly for a while, the corners of his mouth curled up little by little.

It wasn't until Xia Zhu came to knock on the door that she gathered her thoughts.

"Do you have time tomorrow? Take you to the county to buy clothes. Xia Zhu pinched Lu Zhu's thin shoulder, "We have a short autumn here, and it will be winter when it is said that winter will be in winter, so I have to buy you a few sets of new clothes to keep you warm." ”

"Do you want to take Lu Yan with you?"

"He, every time he walks a few steps shopping, he shouts that he is tired, and he probably doesn't want to go, I'll ask later." Xia Zhu glanced at the stack of books on the corner of the table, "Isn't this the information of the first year of high school?" How did you find out? ”

Lu Zhu looked at the pile of notes: "I helped my classmates sort it out." ”

Xia Zhu sighed, didn't delay her too much, rubbed her head and said, "Then you make arrangements, let's take the car tomorrow morning, don't stay up late, it's very uncomfortable to get motion sickness if you don't sleep well." ”

"Got it." Lu Zhu raised his head and said with a smile.

Xia Zhu asked, Lu Yan was really not happy to accompany them shopping, he was busy reading storybooks and building Lego, and he didn't want to go out, he only said that he wanted to eat fried chicken, and asked her to bring one to him when he came back.

There is also an acquaintance who goes shopping with the mother and daughter, Gui Yueqin, who is the same age as Xia Zhu, but according to her seniority, Lu Zhu has to call her sister-in-law.

The three of them took a car for almost an hour and arrived at the county seat.

In a small roadside shop, one person ate a bowl of hot dry noodles, and then began to walk along the street to clothing stores and choose clothes for Lu Zhu. Walking into one of the stores, Lu Zhu's eyes were immediately attracted by a white dress hanging on the second-tier hanger.

Slightly fluffy short puff sleeves, the skirt length is about the calf, the skirt is large, stacked with folds, very ladylike. Lu Zhu has several skirts, most of which are relatively simple and neat designs, and there is no such style.

Her fingers touched the hem of her skirt, and envy flashed in her eyes.

It's a bit similar to the skirt on Shen Li's body on the day of the holiday.

Xia Zhu was picking out autumn and winter clothes for her, carrying a light blue sweater in her hand, wanting her to try it on, but she was staring at the white dress in a daze.

"Like this dress?" Xia Zhu glanced at it and felt unremarkable, "The summer has passed, and I can't wear it if I buy it, and I will have a new style next year." ”

Lu Zhu understands this truth: "If you don't buy it, I'll take a look." ”

She took the sweater and tried it on.

Gui Yueqin's gaze withdrew from the rows of clothes, looked at Lu Zhu who came out of the fitting room, and sighed sincerely: "It's good-looking, it's very complexion." After a pause, he praised again, "Zhu Zhu has grown into a big girl, taller than her mother, beautiful and good at studying, which is really enviable." ”

Xia Zhu pulled Lu Zhu to take a picture in front of the full-length mirror, and said with a smile: "It's taller than me." ”

Lu Zhu is slender and fair-skinned, and he can wear the clothes in the photo well, so he bought the clothes without visiting a few stores.

Gui Yueqin also bought a few, and then she was going to the barber shop to do her hair, and the mother and daughter accompanied her.

When Xia Zhu sat down to rest, he glanced at Lu Zhu and suddenly proposed, "Do you want to straighten your hair?" ”

When Lu Zhu was young, he didn't like his own curls very much, saying that it looked like he had permed his hair. Others say it's good-looking, but she doesn't say it's ugly to death, and she envy others for having long straight and smooth hair, and always wants to straighten it.

Xia Zhu said that children can't do their hair, and they can't do it until they grow up.

Later, when she grew up, she didn't mention this request again, and Xia Zhu naturally forgot about it, and it was a whim at this time, remembering it.

Lu Zhu looked at herself in the mirror, in fact, her self-curls were different from most people's, the curved arc was very natural, a bit similar to French curls, lazy and fluffy, showing a small face.

Huang Shuhan used to go to the barber shop and ask the barber to perm like her, and people honestly told her that the natural one must be better than the perm.

Shen Li's long flowing black hair appeared in Lu Zhu's mind, his mind moved slightly, and he struggled for a few more minutes, and finally patted his knees to make a decision.

"Straighten it up, I want to change my hairstyle."

Straightening hair was very popular at that time!!
