The weather was getting colder day by day, and the clothes on Wang Chong's body gradually became thicker.

There was nothing to do in the winter, so Wang Chong made furniture at home.

As soon as Debao got out of school every day, he ran to Wang Chong's house, followed him behind his ass, and learned that he was serious, and Wang Chong didn't hide his secrets, teaching him little by little.

Mai Miao is like a little fart, following Debao all day long, Ga Wa and Shui Wang are still the same, they can't calm down and follow Wang Chongxue, and they can't stay behind Debao's ass for a while, and Wang Chong can't do anything about it.

After a few days of hard work, looking at the two pairs of Taishi chairs that were gradually spliced into shape in Wang Chong's hands, and the two high tables of withered flowers, Ma Debao's eyes could see the fine light.

"Brother Wang Chong, you don't need a single nail, you can really make such a beautiful chair?" Ma Debao's voice was a little shocked and curious.

"It's definitely better with the paint."

"It's a mortise! It is not only the foundation, but also the most profound knowledge in the carpentry industry, and it is a knowledge that can be studied for a lifetime! Wang said earnestly.

"A lifetime of learning?" Although Ma Debao thinks that Wang Chong chair is well done, he still doesn't believe it.

Wang Zhong smiled and said: "If you really want to learn the craft, you must have the strength to study this craft as a knowledge. ”

"Math and physics?" Ma Debao looked at Wang Zhong puzzled.

"The simplest, like this triangular ruler." Wang Zhong took out the triangular ruler with a line and said: "Hook three strands, four strings and five, isn't this mathematics?" ”

"And this stool, this table! How to design the strongest and most material-saving! Then you have to know how it is forced, how it is the strongest, there are a lot of things here, but they are all related to physics. ”

Ma Debao nodded thoughtfully.

"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, have you thought about it later? Are you going to continue your studies, or are you going to do something? Wang Chong suddenly remembered that he had never asked Ma Debao what he wanted to do.

Ma Debao lowered his head and muttered for a while before he said, "Brother Wang Chong, I want to leave Yongquan Village, I want to go out, I want to go outside, I want to make money!" ”

"Roast the potatoes in the morning, steam the potatoes at noon, and stew the potatoes in the evening!" The corners of Ma Debao's mouth raised, and he said self-deprecatingly: "I don't want to eat potatoes every day anymore!" ”

Wang Zhong saw that this was from his heart, because when he spoke, the thing that flashed in Ma Debao's eyes was called firmness.

"Young people, it's normal to yearn for the world outside!" Wang Chongdao: "Especially at your age, you must feel that the world outside is vast and promising!" ”

"Brother Wang Chong, what you said is what I thought in my heart!" Ma Debao said: "It's better to go outside than to be poor in our poor ravine!" ”

"Depot!" Wang Chong suddenly raised his hand and patted Ma Debao's shoulder: "How about we make a gentleman's agreement?" ”

"A gentleman's agreement?" Ma Debao looked at Wang Chong and asked suspiciously, "What gentleman's agreement?" ”

You are only fourteen this year, and you will study with me for four years, while studying, four years later, you will be eighteen years old, and you will be an adult at that time, whether you want to stay at home, or if you want to go out to work and earn money, I will not stop you!" ”

"How?"

"Why four years later?" Ma Debao wanted to escape from the ravines and ravines of Yongquan Village as soon as possible, but now he is too young to leave behind, he originally planned to wait for another two years and leave, but Wang Chong suddenly said four years.

If it was before, Ma Debao would definitely not pay attention to it, but since he has been with Wang Chong for a few months, seeing how Wang Chong dug a kiln to burn bricks step by step, and built a house hoop cellar, Ma Debao has regarded Wang Chong as an idol and admired him quite a lot.

"Four years later, you will be eighteen years old, according to the laws of our country, you will be an adult when you are eighteen years old, what is an adult, you don't need me to explain it to you!" Wang Zhong said with a smile.

Ma Debao didn't agree directly, thought for a while, and asked: "Brother Wang Chong, can I ask, if you don't stay in a good big city, what are you doing in our poor place?" ”

Wang Zhong looked at Ma Debao's eyes, met his puzzled gaze, and did not answer directly, but asked instead: "Debao, what do you say that we are manly husbands and come to this world for?" ”

Ma Debao frowned, thought about it, and asked tentatively, "Get ahead?" Glory to the ancestors? ”

"Then what do you think is what it means to stand out and glorify your ancestors?"

These words stunned Ma Debao, his mouth opened, and when he came to his mouth, he felt that nothing was wrong, and then shook his head and said: "I didn't think about it so much, I just want to leave this poor ravine, go to the outside world, and live a better life." ”

"I don't want to eat potatoes three times a day, I want to eat white noodles, I want to eat meat, I want to make a lot of money! Let my father and my mother live a good life. ”

And wheat sprouts! Depot took a look and added a sentence in his heart.

"Money, material!" Wang Chongdao: "Your idea is not wrong, these two things have always been linked, the more money you have, the richer the material life you can enjoy." ”

"But how can you be sure that you will make money when you go out?" Wang Zhong looked at Ma Debao and asked in a deep voice.

Ma Debao thought for a while and said firmly: "As long as I am willing to work, I can always earn money." ”

Wang Chong smiled even more, raised his hand and patted Ma Debao's shoulder gently, and said, "As long as you are willing to work, you can indeed earn money, but what will you do?" The masonry is half a bucket of water, and the carpenter has just learned, and you only know the fur when you burn bricks and tiles, what can you do when you go out? ”

"Work to earn money!" Ma Debao said firmly, obviously he had already thought about it.

"Earn money by working?" Wang Chong shook his head and said, "What kind of work are you going out to do now?" Dig coal for people? Just half the size of you, eat more than you do, and the coal boss is not stupid, instead of looking for you, why not find an adult with more strength and stronger bones? ”

Ma Debao was stunned by Wang Chong's words, didn't know how to refute, and frowned.

"Brother Wang Chong, what can I do?"

Wang Chongdao: "It's not what you can do, but what you want to do and what you will do!" ”

Do you know what you're doing out there now? ”

Ma Debao still shook his head.

"Look, you don't know!" Wang Chong shook his head: "Just like you, you run out as soon as your brain is hot, either you are abducted into the black coal kiln, or you are brought into the black brick kiln, working for people day and night, and no one knows when you die in the mine." ”

Although Wang Zhong said that he was inferior, Ma Debao still didn't believe it.

"Four years!" Wang Zhong shook his head, sighed, raised four fingers, and said: "Four years, follow me to learn the craft in these four years, and after four years, you will also grow up, if you still want to run out, I will never stop you!" ”

Ma Debao thought about it for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying, "Okay! Brother Wang Chong, I promise you! ”

Although he didn't believe that Wang Chong said that it was so dangerous outside, he also understood that if he had a skill, no matter where he went, he could beg for food and earn money.

Ma Debao is a talent, with a bright brain, hard work, courage and determination to do things, and is a rare talent.

Wang Chong has not forgotten that in addition to the main quest, he also has a side quest, and Ma Debao is a foreshadowing and assistant to complete the side quest.

After four years, if Ma Debao still wants to leave, he can only blame Wang Zhong for not having enough personality charm and no ability.

"Brother Wang Chong, you haven't told me yet, why don't you live a good life in the city, and you have to come to our poor ravine?" Not Madebao

"There is a saying that everyone has his own ambitions! Have you heard what Mr. Bai said? Wang Zhong said.

Ma Debao nodded.

Wang Chongdao: "If you want to make money, want to get ahead, glorify your ancestors, and want your parents to live a good life, you don't have to eat potatoes all day long, this is your ambition and your pursuit." ”

"I also have my pursuits, my ambitions, in my opinion, even if the whole village goes out to work, there is no way to solve the current situation of our Yongquan Village, even Gangou Township, and even the entire Xihai Solid Poverty."

"Fallen leaves always have to return to the roots, working outside and earning money, don't you come back?"

Faced with Wang Chong's question, Ma Debao said: "Then I must come back!" ”

Wang Chongdao: "Yes, we have to come back in the end, Yongquan Village is our home, but what about after we come back?" There is no place to work, and you are sitting on empty food with the money you earn from your part-time job? Continue to live a life with your face to the loess and your back to the sky! ”

"When we have children in the future, our children will grow up and be like you now, running out with all their hearts, wanting to live a good life, but when they are old, they can't do it anymore, and they run back, or like Gawa's father, they run out and never come back, and when the old people gradually pass away, and the young ones run outside, will Yongquan Village still exist?"

Ma Debao heard this, and immediately shook his head, "Brother Wang Chong, I don't want this!" ”

Wang Chong patted Ma Debao on the shoulder again, and said while comforting: "So I've been thinking about any way, so that the villagers of Yongquan Village don't have to go out to work, they can earn money near their homes, and live a more and more prosperous life." ”

"Brother Wang Chong, is there such a way?" Ma Debao looked at Wang Chong, and for some reason, his heart was suddenly touched, and his eyes were full of expectation.

"Not yet!" Wang Chong shook his head, but there was no frustration on his face, the corners of his mouth rose, with a confident and high-spirited shallow smile: "But I believe that as long as we have this idea, this perseverance, and are willing to persevere, persevere, and try unremittingly, do our best to make efforts, to think, to find, one day, we can find a way." ”

"Brother Wang Chong!" Ma Debao suddenly felt that the king in front of him was infinitely taller at this moment.

"Haven't you only been here for a few months? How could there be such an idea? ”

Looking at the doubts on Ma Debao's face, Wang Chong smiled and said: "When the world was in turmoil, if it wasn't for Yongquan Village taking in my grandfather and grandmother, whether I have me today is another matter. ”

"The grace of dripping water, when Yongquan reciprocates, not to mention such kindness, I want to try, learn from those ancestors who threw their heads for the establishment of Xinhua Kingdom, spilled blood, were not afraid of life and death, and were not afraid of difficulties, and did my best in this life, what to do for our Yongquan Village, and even our entire Xihaigu villagers."

"Debao, there is a saying that I think is very right, a manly husband, the poor are good alone, and the good is to help the world, now I can be good alone, and I don't dare to think about it, I can do something for our fellow villagers, I think I can still try."

"Brother Wang Chong!" Listening to Wang Chong's words, Ma Debao's eyes looked at Wang Chong, and they were a little more hot.

"I ······"

But when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say.

Wang Chongdao: "Okay, brother is just to make friends with you, there is no other meaning, don't think about it, it's too early to say this, besides, didn't we say okay, you learn to miss me, four years later, if you want to leave and stay, I won't persuade you anymore!" ”

"Brother Wang Chong, I must study hard!" Ma Debao said firmly.

"Good!" Wang Chong smiled and patted Debao's shoulder, pursed his lips, and looked quite moved: "I'll go to the county seat to find out if there is any good material these days, and you will come back on the weekend!" Let's move on! Strive to get you out of the school as soon as possible. ”

"Hmm!"

"Brother Wang Chong, then I'll go back first!"

"What a return! It's been a busy day, so stay and eat together in the evening! Wang Zhong hurriedly stopped him.

"No, I ······" Ma Debao just turned around, and his face immediately showed surprise: "Sister Shuihua? ”

Wang Chong also turned his head to look at the splash standing outside the fence gate: "Splash? Hurriedly walked over and opened the courtyard gate made of the fence: "Why are you here?" ”

Shui Hua also came back to his senses, and hurriedly handed three grates of different sizes to Wang Chongdao: "Didn't you say that there were a few grates missing at home last time!" Promise! I made it all up myself! ”

It's just that there is a little more emotion in the eyes that look at Wang Chong that he usually doesn't have.

Wang Zhong took the grate and looked at it, and said with a smile: "It's really good!" ”

"Splash, you are so skillful!" ”

"That's it! My Splash Sister is known for her ingenuity! Depot said proudly.

"Exactly! I'm going to make oily noodles, and the splash will stay and eat together, so I will thank you for these grates! Wang Zhong smiled and invited the water into the house.

"No, no, I have to go back to cook for my father!" Splash waved her hand again and again in refusal.

"What's this, it's done later, you bring a bowl back to Uncle Bolt!" Wang Zhong hurriedly gave Debao a look.

Debao hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the splash: "Sister Splash, don't go, you don't know who my brother Wang Chong is, you just sent these grates, if you don't eat his meal today, he can work for you at your house every day!" ”

Wang Chong's eyes widened, and he looked at Debao in disbelief, but Debao smiled, as if he didn't see it, and said to Shui Hua: "Sister Shuihua, oil splashes noodles!" ”

He swallowed his saliva as he spoke.

Splash was helplessly pulled into the kitchen by Depot.

Debao helped to light the fire, and the splash took the initiative to take over the work of mixing and rolling noodles.

The king couldn't resist her, so he went with her.

Take out a piece of lamb that weighs more than half a pound from the cabinet.

As soon as the mutton was taken out, Debao's eyes lit up, and he subconsciously swallowed his saliva: "Brother Wang Chong, where did the mutton come from?" ”

"Where did you say it came from, of course you bought it!" Wang Zhong replied with a smile.

It was a splash, and the smile on the mutton's face immediately disappeared: "Just eat a noodle, keep this mutton and eat it yourself!" Don't do it today! ”

Wang Zhong smiled and washed the meat with cold water, put it on the eucalyptus board, picked up the kitchen knife and cut it and said, "This meat is bought for eating!" ”

"Brother! You haven't been to the county for the past few days, I've been staying at your house for lunch every day for the past few days, why haven't I seen a piece of meat, and now Sister Shuihua is here, you said you want to eat! ”

Debao, who was squatting in front of the stove to light the fire, suddenly interjected.

Wang Zhong couldn't wait to give this kid a thumbs up.

The movement of the water splash and the face paused, his complexion changed slightly, and his eyes unconsciously moved to Wang Chong's side.

"You talk a lot!" Wang Zhong glared at him.

Depot smiled as if he didn't see it.

"By the way, Depot, I forgot to ask you, you still have a long winter vacation?" Wang Zhong knew that he couldn't rush the matter with the splash, so he had to take his time, so he hurriedly opened the topic.

"It's almost a month away! What's wrong Brother Wang Chong? Originally, after the summer vacation this summer, Debao didn't look like studying, it was Wang Chong who used teaching him skills as a bargaining chip, so he was willing to go back to school to continue studying with Mai Miao and her father.

"A month, that's about the same!" Wang Chongdao: "Keep it secret first, and I'll tell you when the time comes!" ”

"Brother Wang Chong, don't take you like this, half of what you say!" Depot was a little unhappy.

"Okay, when the fire is burned, go outside to pluck a few green onions and come back, and then get a few potatoes from the warehouse next to it!"

A roasted mutton with green onions, a stir-fried shredded artichoke, a large bowl of oily noodles for one person, Wang Chong himself directly held a large urn about the size of a face plate, accompanied by mutton and artichoke shreds, and the three of them all ate a belly round.

After eating, when he was leaving, while the splash was not paying attention, Wang Chongzai quietly stuffed a bag of brown sugar and a note in the basket.

The basket also contained a bowl of oily noodles for Li Lao, covered with mutton, green onions and shredded artichokes.

When Splash got home, Li Laoshuo, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait to take the basket from Splash who had just entered the door, walked to the table, squatted on the bench and impatiently lifted the curtain.

"Dad, you eat quickly, after eating, I will send the bowl and basket back to Brother Wang Chong!" Shui Hua was a little absent-minded, and her mind was still recalling the words that Wang Chong and Debao had just heard outside the hospital.

In my mind, the image that belonged to Wang Zhong was also constantly rising.

"I know, I know!"

"It smells so good!" Li Laozhuan looked at the oily and ruddy wide noodles in the basket, as well as the lamb slices and shredded potatoes on the top, and his face was satisfied before he ate it, smelling the fragrant aroma, and he had swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva first.

There were still two heads of red garlic on the table, and Li Laozhuan had already prepared them, just waiting for the splash to bring back the oily noodles.

"Huh?"

"What's this?"

Li Laoshuan's puzzled voice sounded, and as soon as he picked up the bowl, he saw the note at the bottom of the bowl and the fist-sized yellow oiled paper bag placed under the basket.

"Isn't it just the scallion fried mutton and shredded artichoke made by Brother Wang Chong, what else?" The splash of unknown water also came over, and I happened to see the oiled paper bag in the basket, and I couldn't help but pick up the oiled paper bag curiously: "What is this?" ”

There is also a folded paper strip pressed under the oiled paper bag.

"Huh?"

Shui Hua curiously picked up the note and opened it to take a look, only to see that it was written: "Brewed with brown sugar and hot water, it has the effect of nourishing yin and nourishing blood!" During special periods, don't see the cold. ”

Looking at the content of the note, the splash was cold at first, and then the delicate and pretty round face was quickly dyed with a layer of surging red.

Li Laozhuan took a big mouthful of noodles, and asked indistinctly: "What is written on it?" ”

Shui Hua hurriedly put the note behind him: "It's nothing! ”

The abnormalities of the splash were written on his face, and Li Laozhuan was not a fool, how could he not see it, but he didn't force the splash to say, but looked at the oil-paper bag that was put in the basket by the splash and asked, "What is this bag?" ”

Shui Hua said: "It should be brown sugar!" ”

Li Laozhuan just sandwiched a large amount of fast noodles, and when he heard this, his eyes lit up, and he didn't even eat the noodles, put the noodles back in the bowl, quickly took out the oil paper bag, put it on the table and opened it carefully, "It's really brown sugar, such a big bag!" ”

"This cowardice is kind!"

As he spoke, he took a little bit of his finger and put it in his mouth and tasted it: "It's so sweet!" ”

Shui Hua hurriedly wrapped the open oil paper again: "Dad, if you don't eat noodles again, it's cold!" ”

Li Laozhuan didn't feel anything, picked up the fast zi, picked up a large fast noodle, lowered his head and was about to put it in his mouth, suddenly paused again, looked at the splash and said, "Don't take a fancy to you!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the expression on Shui Hua's face froze, he picked up the brown sugar and walked to the side, subconsciously clutching the note in his hand tightly, and his heart suddenly became entangled, but his mouth was still hard: "How is it possible, Brother Wang Chong is so good, how can you look at me." ”

Having said that, a heart has already rippled.

The splash is not stupid, on the contrary, she is very smart, Wang Chong's excessive concern, trying to get close, how can she not feel it, she can't detect it.

But she didn't reject Wang Chong's approach at all, and even faintly looked forward to it.

Li Laozhuan didn't think about it so much, took a big mouthful of noodles, broke off a petal of acid, stuffed it directly in his mouth, and then sent a piece of mutton to his mouth.

After Li Laozhuan finished eating, the sky gradually darkened, and the night was approaching, Shui Hua washed the dishes, carried the bamboo basket, and returned to Wang Chong's house again.

"Brother Wang Chong, return your basket and bowl!"

"Didn't you say it, don't be in such a hurry, you can return it tomorrow!"

"It's still early!" The splash was a little twisted, and he didn't dare to look directly at Wang Chong: "Thank you for the brown sugar!" ”

"No thanks!" Wang Zhong smiled and said: "It just so happens that I am going to the county seat tomorrow, and when the time comes, I will buy some wolfberry red dates and come back, and I will send them to your house when I come back in the evening!" ”

Splash's cheeks quickly reddened, becoming more and more cramped: "No need······ Don't break the bank! ”

"Also, you····· How do you know····· Know ······" Even the words were twisted, stumbling, and it took most of the day to spit out half a sentence, such a private thing, in terms of the traditional splash of concepts, is really a little ashamed to speak.

Wang Chong explained softly: "Don't think about it, Chinese medicine pays attention to looking, smelling, asking, I have followed a veteran in the army, I know a little bit, just now when I saw you, I found that your complexion is not quite right, and my sense of smell is also more sensitive, when I get closer, I also smell the surging smell of blood on your body." ”

"This woman's menstrual period is a very normal physiological phenomenon, I don't mean anything else, that is, there is brown sugar at home, and I can't use it myself, and I put it away, and you are in this state now, drink more brown sugar water, which can nourish qi and blood, which is beneficial and harmless to the body."

"Thank you! Brother Wang Chong! Shui Hua looked at Wang Chong a few times in surprise, but he didn't expect Wang Chong to know how to heal, and even he could see that he was menstruating, and remembered what Wang Chong had just said, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "But red dates and wolfberries are not needed!" Just have brown sugar water! ”

Usually, don't talk about wolfberry and red dates, there is not even brown sugar water.

Wang Chong reminded him: "By the way, during a woman's menstruation, her body will definitely be uncomfortable, at this time, remember to touch cold things, and you can't just drink brown sugar water, but also drink hot water and warm water, which helps relieve discomfort." ”

"Also, the weather is getting colder and colder recently, remember not to touch the cold water, although you are healthy, but now is a special period after all, it is better to pay a little attention."

"Hmmm! I remember, thank you! ”

"Hey! I didn't do anything, what to thank! Wang Zhong smiled and said: "It's not too early, it's going to be dark soon, it's better for you to go back early, so as not to see the road clearly later!" ”

"Hmm!" Shui Hua nodded: "Then I'll go first!" You also rest early! ”

"Walk slowly! I won't send it. ”

Saying goodbye to Wang Chong, Shui Hua even left much faster.

It was night, the stars were hidden, the dim moonlight poured into the house through the window, and the water splashed and slept in clothes, covered with old flower quilts, but could not sleep at all.

Wang Chong's figure in his mind kept appearing, and all kinds of things during the day also came to mind one after another, this night, Shui Huafang's heart trembled, his heart was like numbness, listening to the cold wind whistling outside and slapping on the doors and windows, tossing and turning, how could he not sleep.

Before this summer, in Shui Hua's heart, apart from her father, the only man she pretended to be was Ma Defu, who grew up with her since childhood, childhood sweetheart, and two little guesses.

But in the past few months, a man named Wang Zhong has appeared in her world, and I don't know from what moment it has quietly squeezed into her heart.

In the past six months, Wang Chong has tried all kinds of ways to constantly increase the opportunities for himself to get along with Shuihua, looking for things to do in a different way, being cheeky again and again, letting Shuihua help him cook, and going to Shuihua's house again and again under the pretext of repaying his kindness, changing the Fa'er's courtesy.

It's finally paying off.

The film and television heavens that started from the light word film.

The chaos reminds you: remember to collect after reading
