Wei Lan was startled, the cashmere top hat on his head fell to the ground, and he stepped on it several times back and forth: "What are you doing?" ”

The child in the woman's arms cried incessantly, but at this time, the woman struggled to hold the child with one hand, and grabbed Wei Lan's wrist with the other hand and still refused to let go.

The woman was anxious to say something, but she cried and made a "ahh

The clothes of the two could tell that they were not the same kind of people, and someone soon noticed this.

The crowd gathered around, and when they saw that the woman couldn't speak, and dragged a beautiful girl and refused to let go, just as she was crazy, someone rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to pull the woman away.

The crowd gathered around, causing a great panic among the children, who cried even louder.

The woman put the child on the edge of the frame, and rushed towards Wei Lan with red eyes, but due to the push of the people around her, the woman fell to the ground heavily, and finally grabbed only one of Wei Lan's ankles.

Wei Lan was so frightened that her body shrank violently, and she stood there forgetting to move.

When Yanyi came back, he saw the scene of the crowd surrounding, his heart suddenly sank, and he squeezed through the crowd twice to find Wei Lan and protect him in his arms.

"How? Is there something wrong? Yan Yi nervously checked Wei Lan's situation, but saw that she was biting her lower lip tightly, and her gaze was fixed on one point.

Yan Yi took advantage of the situation, and his eyes quickly settled on the woman lying on the ground.

Looking back and forth, Yanyi could roughly guess what had happened.

He straightened Wei Lan's loose hair, and his voice was soft: "If you want to eat peaches, tell me, I'll buy them." ”

With that, Yan Yi pulled open his trench coat and took out a dollar from his inner pocket.

Yan Yi lifted the woman on the ground and stuffed the money into the woman's hand.

didn't ask how much peaches cost a catty, Yan Yi picked up an expired newspaper from the bamboo basket, wrapped two peaches and put them in his pocket, got up and put his arm around Wei Lan's shoulders to walk out of the crowd.

The woman wanted to chase, but she couldn't let go of the child, so she could only whimper loudly: "Hmm...... Guzha (Gu Chao) ...... Gu (Gu) ......"

Wei Lan looked back and saw the woman who bought the peach with tears on her face helplessly.

For some reason, Wei Lan stopped and suddenly hesitated.

Yanyi looked down at her: "What's wrong?" ”

Wei Lan's pink lips pursed slightly, frowned slightly, and said, "She's a mute." ”

"There are many such people in the world."

There are so many that even ten Wei Lan can't be pitied.

Yan Yi glanced at his watch, took Wei Lan's wrist and walked into the station: "Let's go, the train is coming to the station." ”

Wei Lan nodded hesitantly, her gaze stayed on the woman selling peaches for a moment, then she turned around, and entered the train station with Yanyi without looking back.

Fang Xia cried "woo", wiped a handful of tears, picked up Brother Shao'er who was crying, and stopped selling peaches, so she hurriedly rushed home with a frame on her back.

Nowadays, with policy reforms, there are no large shops in the streets and alleys, but there are many small vendors.

Some of them are the unscrupulous masters who are involved in the black market, and as soon as the policy comes, they will walk on the front line, and they will change from secretly doing business in the past to selling goods and commodities in the open.

There is also a part of the farm's own production and consumption, such as eggs, linen, agricultural products, and so on.

After Gu Chao left, the Gu family's house was handed over to Gu Yang and Fang Xia to take care of, this month is the season when the peaches are ripe and ripe, in previous years, Gu Chao sent them to the supply and marketing cooperatives or the black market to sell, and now the supply and marketing cooperatives are on the verge of disintegration, and they have basically stopped collecting things from scattered people.

The black market, not to mention, people are busy doing their own business, and their hands are also rare, rare, and practical things.

Seeing that there were more and more ripe peaches, Gu Yang was really busy with farm work and couldn't leave, Fang Xia was afraid of ruining things, so he picked the peaches a day in advance, cut off the branches and leaves and packed them neatly one by one, and got up early the next morning, even the commune's two-cent bus was reluctant to do it, holding Brother Shao in front of him, carrying a large basket of peaches in the back, and walking for nearly four hours to the county.

There are many people coming and going at the train station, and Fang Xia doesn't expect to sell for much money, but the peaches are smart, and the more people can always sell faster.

The peach water spirit is good, there are many people who come forward to see or ask the price, Fang Xia can't speak, can only sign language, but there are few people who understand, and none of the peaches are sold.

The onlookers didn't know sign language, and gradually retreated, Fang Xia stood there with Shao Ge'er in her arms, and she didn't know what to do for a while, she was thinking about how to solve it, but on the steps at the entrance of the train station, she saw a person.

Wei, Wei Lan!

Not dead yet!

Fang Xia was overjoyed, and stepped forward to pull the person down, but although Wei Lan was still alive, it was very different from before, as if she didn't know her.

The crowd surged, Shao Ge'er was so frightened that he cried, Fang Xia was pulled away, and then he saw another person in the crowd, and that person took Wei Lan away.

Yanyi often goes to the Seventh Team, has never dealt with women comrades, and may not know Fang Xia, but Fang Xia knows him.

He told Gu Chao that Wei Lan was gone, and he accompanied Wei Lan's father to look around......

Fake, all fake......

Wei Lan has always been in his hands!

Seeing Wei Lan turn around and enter the station, Fang Xia was hesitant and desperate in her heart, she couldn't care about anything, picked up Brother Shao'er and picked up the frame on her back, and hurried home.

After running for a while, the heavy frame really affected the speed, Fang Xia simply threw the box aside and took Shao Ge'er to the county bus terminal.

Rao was like this, and it was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon when he got home.

Youlan sat in the courtyard with Sister Han in her arms, Ji Fengyao sat next to her, holding a somewhat wilting lotus flower in her hand and shaking, I don't know if she was teasing Youlan or Sister Han.

After Gu Chao left, Youlan's personality was immersed, which sometimes made people feel gloomy, and the children in the village were not very willing to play with her after she felt that her temper had become strange.

In addition, Youlan herself is not very willing to go out, and she spends a lot of time alone.

However, Ji Fengyao is not the same as the children in the village, perhaps because he followed Youlan from the beginning when he was transferred here, it has become his habit to come to Youlan every day and stay by Youlan's side.

"Sister-in-law." Youlan shouted, and Ji Fengyao got up to say hello, "Hello, Auntie." ”

Fang Xia had no time to patronize, wiped a handful of tears in her heart, walked to the rocking chair in a few steps and put Brother Shao down, turned around and gave Youlan a long string of sign language.

Seeing that she looked nervous, Youlan didn't dare to delay, handed Sister Han to her, got up and ran out.

Ji Fengyao followed behind and got up, "Youlan, Youlan, what did Aunt Fangxia say just now?" Why are you in such a hurry? Run slower! Moss grows in the alley! ”

"Sister-in-law said that there is an urgent matter, and she wants to find Brother Yang back!"

There was a clear sound of footsteps coming from the bluestone slab in the alley, and in addition, the girl's voice was also very crisp.

It's these two months, it's like going back to the crisp and clear a few months before the incident.

Ji Fengyao's pace was half a beat slower, and a quiet wind blew in the alley, which was very cool to take away the heat.

The tips of the boy's black broken hair were swept up by the wind, and his brain seemed to be awakened by the cool wind, and a small thought sprouted in his heart in just a moment.

He was going to guard her.

Hold her voice, her smile.

"Youlan, I'll go with you to find it, let's look for it separately!"

Gu Yang's family also divided three acres of land, and the lottery was not as lucky as Gu Chao at that time, the land was close to the water source in Xiaogang, and the three acres of land were all connected.

Gu Yang's three acres of land are very scattered, one acre here, eight points there, and two points for other land.

It's not a big collective work now, every family is busy with their own land, Gu Yang's land is so scattered, it's really hard to say where Gu Yang's people are.

The two small ones circled around Tian Geng several times, and finally found Gu Yang on the side of Chashan Bao.

Fang Xia has always been a person who reports good news but not bad news, and if she can be so flustered, I'm afraid it won't disappear.

When Gu Yang heard about the situation, he was in a hurry, so he lost his hoe and ran home.

"What's the matter?"

"Really? Are you sure? Did you see it with your own eyes? ”

"Wei Zhiqing and Wei Lan are not dead, they are not dead!"

Gu Yang in the courtyard was emotional, Fang Xia's eyes were red, and the sign language was hurried one after another.

Fang Xia explained to Gu Yang the ins and outs of the matter, as well as the incident that Yanyi had taken away at the county train station, so that Gu Yang could find an opportunity to explain the matter to Gu Chao.

At this time, Gu Chao was still looking for Wei Lan everywhere.

Gu Yang nodded again and again, "Okay." Good! I'll tell Brother Chao, tell Brother Chao! Wei Lan and Wei Lan are not dead! ”

"Lan, Sister Lan is not dead!"

Gu Yang's legs were running fast, and he arrived home earlier than Youlan and Ji Fengyao, and when Youlan and they arrived home, they had already begun to talk.

Youlan just heard the key point of the matter.

The sinking stone that has been pressed in his heart in the past few months has relaxed, and Youlan can no longer help but cover her mouth and cry.

But after the surprise, Youlan's mood became depressed again.

Sister Lan didn't die, but her brother was already gone, and she didn't say exactly where she was going when she left, so she wanted to tell her brother the news, and where would she go to find her brother's people?

Thinking that Gu Chao didn't know the news yet, and walked all over the mountains and rivers to find Wei Lan in despair, Youlan's heart was very sour.

And after Gu Yang repeatedly promised Fang Xia, he also suddenly woke up and remembered the problem.

Fang Xia stared at Gu Yang with wide eyes, tears sliding down her rough face.

Gu Yang was silent for a moment, stepped down his shoulders, and tried to smile and comfort, "Brother Chao will definitely send a letter later, when the time comes, we can look for it according to the address on the letter, we will definitely find it, wait first, let's wait first, huh?" ”

That's all there is to it.

Gu Yang's words invisibly persuaded the two of them.

Youlan pursed her lips, turned around and leaned against the courtyard wall without entering.

"Youlan ......" Ji Fengyao frowned slightly, stood aside and looked at her with shortness of breath, wanting to say something, but he was worried that saying the wrong thing would make her sad again.

Youlan sobbed quietly for a while, and suddenly raised her head, her swarthy fawn eyes were full of determination, "Sister Lan is not dead, I want to find her!" ”

"You? You go? You're still so young, in case even you ...... I disagree! Ji Fengyao's face flushed, he was already quieter and more delicate than the children in the village, more like a girl than a girl, and now it is even more so.

The age difference between the two is one and a half years, but in the past half a year, Li and Ji Fengyao's food has improved, and now they are as tall as Youlan.

Youlan wiped her tears, raised her hand and touched Ji Fengyao's head comfortably, "Okay Fengyao, I said to go to Sister Lan, not now, I must wait for my brother to come back, I will go with my brother to find Sister Lan." ”

Be sure to get Sister Lan back.

This is also Grandma's long-cherished wish!

Youlan was full of thoughts, so she ignored the small dissatisfaction and grievances in Ji Fengyao's eyes.

He's a boy, how can he be touched at will?

However, if it's Youlan, touch it!

*

Haishi is a coastal city, but also a polarized city, one part of which follows the current civilization and continues to advance, and the other part still retains the old site of civilization.

Guanhai Road is located at one end of the coastal port, standing at the other end and looking at this side, what comes into view is like an island mountain towering over the sea, with dense trees, high eaves of deep houses, and faintly exposed corners of heavy eaves.

After getting off the train, I took a rabbit head taxi for nearly two hours to reach my destination.

Yan Yi was the first to get out of the car, pushed the car door wide, and stretched out his hand to help Wei Lan get out of the car.

The driver was looking for money, Wei Lan put his hands together and pinched his hat that was still a little dusty, his chin was raised, and his little face turned left and right to look around.

The winding blue brick path, pine needle trees can be seen everywhere on both sides of the road, lush, and some even have huge pine towers, which fall heavily on the branches.

Looking further afield, deep into the trees, you can see the eaves of towering or quaint houses.

It's half modern, half quaint.

However, there is still not the slightest impression.

The rabbit-headed cart drove away, Yan Yi strode over, and Wei Lan asked curiously, "I used to live here?" ”

"Hmm." Yan Yi took Wei Lan's hand and led her up the green brick path, "Didn't think about it?" It doesn't matter, think about it later. ”

"It's on the coast, you can see the sea from your home, but it's not noisy, and the air is good, you'll like it."

"Oh." Wei Lan nodded, not speaking, but his eyes couldn't help but look around.

Just now by car from the Hubei Bridge, she also paid attention to here, at the time thought it was a scenic spot, but she didn't expect it to be her hometown.

From a distance, it looks like a mountain, and it still feels like a mountain in it, the blue brick path winds through the mountain, the terrain is high and there is land, and the houses where you live are mostly small courtyards, although they are simple but also exquisite.

Standing on the path, you can vaguely see the courtyard of the low-lying house on the side, the blue brick floor, the flower bed made of bluestone and shellfish, the cabbage and shallots planted in it, and there is a fruitful citrus tree in the yard, yellow, orange and orange, which is very beautiful.

Along the way, I only heard the birds and insects, the environment was quiet, the air was fresh, Wei Lan felt it carefully, and her pink lips evoked a shallow smile.

She felt that she liked it here.

"Do I have a yard like this?"

"Of course."

"And that has a tree like that? Well...... Citrus trees. ”

"This ...... Probably so. ”

Yan Yi's voice hesitated, and Wei Lan thought about it.

This is her house, and Yan Yi said that the last time they saw each other was when they were thirteen years old, and that was four years ago, even if they had been here, they should have forgotten it.

Wei Lan didn't think deeply, her peach blossom eyes curled up and smiled with a soliciting charm: "If not, can you help me plant one?" Well...... I don't want citrus trees, I want vines, is that okay? ”
