"The east is not bright, the west is bright, and the south is dark, and there is the north." Gu Chao answered, and then shook his head awkwardly, "No, I'll just come by myself." ”

Gu Chao found a small corner, looked left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention to this side, so he took a deep breath and wrote as if he had made up his mind......

Wrote a letter with crooked handwriting.

Gu Chao knows words and can write, but he has held a soft pen (wolf hair) since he was a child, and he has not held a real hard pen twice.

This is also why every time Wei Lan asked him to write silently, he refused to write on the paper, only picked up a small wooden stick and scratched it on the ground, and said: "Save."

After sealing the envelope and affixing the stamp, Gu Chao hurriedly stuffed the hot letter into the mailbox.

*

Gu Chao stayed in Haishi to do market research, and did not miss any opportunity.

As everyone knows, thousands of miles away from the Seventh Brigade of the Red Flag Commune, Wei Lan is in trouble.

In the morning, the big canteen wanted to erect beams, and Gu Sande asked Huang Chunxiang to come over and call Wei Lan, saying that it would be Wei Lan and a few people cooking at that time, and it would be more convenient to see how the stove was built.

Huang Chunxiang and Wei Lan walked in the alley, because they were always a little optimistic about Wei Lan, Huang Chunxiang was more familiar with the conversation: "The stoves in the south and the north are not the same, right?" We are backing the mountains here, and we all collect firewood to burn, and you burn coal over there, right? ”

Gu Chao has never returned, and there is no news, Wei Lan is worried in his heart, and the whole person is in a trance, so that when Huang Chunxiang speaks, Wei Lan doesn't listen much.

Huang Chunxiang saw that Wei Lan didn't give up and didn't answer, she felt strange in her heart, and was about to ask if something was wrong, when suddenly a bicycle bell rang behind her.

The alley is narrow, and two people walking side by side have only just freed up half a foot of space, and even one more person can't do it, let alone a bicycle?

Huang Chunxiang took a step to the side, and seeing that Wei Lan was still walking forward, she hurriedly pulled Wei Lan aside.

At that moment, the bicycle "hula" passed by.

Wei Lan was startled, and patted her little hand on her chest.

The sharp-eyed recognized that the one who passed by on a bicycle just now was the one he met at the door of Gu's house a few days ago.

Seeing Huang Chunxiang with a smile on her face again, Wei Lan sighed curiously, "Auntie, who was that just now?" ”

Huang Chunxiang glanced back at the end of the alley and said, "Look at the direction of the fourth team, it's a blind date." ”

"Blind date?" Wei Lan was even more curious.

Can this also be seen?

"Hmm." Huang Chunxiang nodded, and continued to walk forward with Wei Lan, "I just saw two bottles of Lao Baigan with red paper in the basket, which were given to my father-in-law. ”

Lao Baigan of the supply and marketing cooperatives costs two yuan and four cents a bottle, and two bottles are five yuan and two cents, and this wine is also a big gift when it is sent to the father-in-law's house.

It is necessary to estimate that family affairs are not far from ten.

Huang Chunxiang took Wei Lan and quickened her pace, and said with a smile: "It's a good sign to go out and bump into a happy event." ”

Is it a good sign?

Wei Lan pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled reluctantly, always feeling heavy in her heart, as if something bad was about to happen.

Let's hope it's a good sign.

Wei Lan thought silently.

The weeds around the big canteen were removed, and the captain asked people to pull out the grass roots, and let the cattle pull stones and grind the surrounding fields to a flat level.

When Wei Lan arrived, several young men were erecting the beams of the house, and when they saw her and Huang Chunxiang coming, they greeted each other with a smile: "Aunt Chunxiang, Wei Zhiqing." ”

Wei Lan pursed her lips and nodded with a smile.

Huang Chunxiang waved his hand to keep them busy, and he led Wei Lan into the house.

It snowed lightly overnight last night, the big canteen didn't have a roof, and the ground was a little slippery as the snow melted.

Wei Lan walked very carefully, the place where the stove was planned to be built had been cleaned up, and some broken bricks were placed aside.

Li Jiandang bent down in the corner with glutinous rice water and yellow mud, ready to build a stove for a while.

Wei Lan looked around and said, "The stove can be built a little longer, if it can, I want to set up two pots in front and back, and the stove mouth is facing this side." ”

Wei Lan said, pointing to the location of the wall window.

Close to the window, the light is brighter in winter, and the fire can be better ventilated in summer, so it is not so stuffy.

"Okay!" Li Jiandang listened to Wei Lan's description, probably had a charter in his heart, and nodded hurriedly.

Huang Chunxiang looked embarrassed: "This one, the stove is easy to get, but the big iron pot ...... The pot wants an industrial roll, and your Uncle Sande ponders to take the idle pot at home and use it, and the other pot, I'm afraid it's not easy to get it. ”

Wei Lan was slightly stunned, but she forgot that the iron pot should be rolled industrially.

"That ......"

"Everything is to cooperate with the sunflower project, of course, you can also apply to the commune and the superiors."

Wei Lan was just about to speak, when the Beijing accent behind her came, and she turned her head to see that a man in a black trench coat wrapped in a blue uniform was striding over.

The gauze on Yanyi's forehead has been removed, revealing a resolute face, the sword eyebrows are deep and the eyebrows are slightly raised, and the narrow eyes are slightly narrowed, with a smile on Wei Lan, it seems that he is in a good mood.

"Do you remember which one has the best bean juice?"

"There is no soy juice sold in Province H." Wei Lan snorted, unable to catch up with Yanyi's brain circuit, she turned around and approached Li Jiandang: "The stove can be a little higher, about the bottom of the chest and abdomen." ”

Yan Yi's face smiled, Huang Chunxiang heard him say that he could apply, and couldn't help but ask a few more words: "Is what Deputy Yan said just now?" If so, then the problem of the brigade will be solved, and I will have to go back and talk to the captain. ”

Yan Yi bowed his head.

Huang Chunxiang received an affirmative answer and hurriedly went home to tell Gu Sande the good news.

The person on the beam above his head knocked and knocked, and Yan Yi's gaze fell back to Wei Lan.

Wei Lan stood beside Li Jiandang, bent down slightly and stretched out her hand to compare how to ride the stove, the skirt on her body was tilted to the ground due to the movement, and she had to stretch out her little hand to lift the skirt.

Yan Yi slowly exhaled, put a shallow smile on his face again, took a step forward, and leaned over: "Wei Lan." ”

The warm breath hit the back earlobe, Wei Lan trembled, and goosebumps rose on his body.

Wei Lan straightened up suddenly, turned around and took a few steps back to distance himself from Yanyi.

Unexpectedly, the ground was slippery, Wei Lan's movements were too violent, causing the soles of her shoes to slip, and the moment she fell, Yan Yi stretched out her hand to grab her.

However, it was still a step slow.

Wei Lan's two calves thumped back and forth twice, trying to stand firmly, but after a period of imbalance in her body, her lower back seemed to hit something, and there was a sharp pain, and then she sat down in the mud.

Accidents always happened in an instant, the wooden ladder that erected the beams of the house was knocked over, and the exclamation of the young man was heard, "The beams are crooked!" Hide! Be careful! ”

Wei Lan took her eyes off her muddy hands, and looked up to see the thigh-thick beam above her head pressing towards her, her pupils shrank suddenly, and her face turned pale.

The body cringed, Wei Lan's eyes were tightly closed, and his two arms were subconsciously blocked in front of his forehead.

However, as soon as her body weighed, she was thrown to the ground.
