Xiaoli said a lot to Fang Wei in one breath, and choked back what he was about to say. Fang Wei was dizzy, his stomach was tumbling, it was very uncomfortable, the small space in the car was full of alcohol, and Xiaoli was almost out of breath.

Xiaoli opened the window, and the air in the car was much refreshed. Xiaoli looked at the sleepy Fang Wei, the wind blowing in from the window blew on his face, and she felt that Fang Wei was a little more comfortable.

The car arrived at Fang Wei's residence, he was blown all the way by the wind, the alcohol came up, Fang Wei staggered and choked out of the car, drunk and hazy, barely able to walk, and looked about to fall.

Xiaoli took two steps, carried Fang Wei to the door, took out the key from his pocket to open the door, and helped him to the bed to lie down.

Xiaoli poured a glass of water, put it at the head of Fang Wei's bed, moved a stool and sat on the edge of the bed, Xiaoli looked at Fang Wei, who was drunk, sighed, and said in a reproachful tone; "Let you drink less, you just won't listen, get drunk like this, it's you who is uncomfortable."

Listening to Xiaoli's nagging, Fang Wei didn't listen to a word, he fell asleep in a daze, when Xiaoli left, he didn't have any impression at all.

…………。

Fang Wei and his colleagues have been busy for several months, and finally see results, the factory has stabilized, the business has become proficient, and there is more leisure time.

Xiaoli, like when she was a child, often came to see Fang Wei, afraid that he would not adapt to the soil and water and eat inappropriately, so she would bring meals from home every once in a while.

On Sunday, Xiaoli drove Fang Wei to the city, went to the beach to play, and tasted all the local snacks and delicacies, which was very suitable for landlords.

One Sunday morning, Xiaoli found Fang Wei and said; "Are you okay today? If it's okay, I'll take you somewhere to play. ”

Fang Wei said; "When we're all old, we know how to play just like we did when we were kids. Tell me where you want to take me, and let me decide whether I want to go or not. ”

She said; "You don't know, just follow me."

Xiaoli drove about fifteen kilometers, stopped at the foot of the mountain, and said; "It's here, get out of the car."

Fang Wei sat in the car and didn't move, looked at the mountains outside from the car window, and asked; "Isn't this a mountain? What's the fun? When I was a child, I used to go to the mountains and haven't had enough? ”

She replied; "Taihang Mountain is high and dangerous, strange rocks are numerous, grass and trees are sparse, and it is snowy in winter, and you can't see a trace of green. The mountains in the south are green all year round, and if it weren't for the change in temperature, the four seasons would not be distinguished. When I was a child, you took me up the mountain to play, and today I lead you to see the scenery of the south, shouldn't you? The mountains in the south, although not as majestic as Taihang Mountain, have a unique exquisite charm. ”

Fang Wei said; "You said it so well, what's the name of this mountain?"

Xiaoli replied; "Wutong Mountain."

The two got out of the car and walked along the path to the mountain, the Wutong Mountain in front of Fang Wei was beautiful and beautiful.

At this time, the sun has just risen red at the top of the mountain, and the blue sky is clear, and occasionally a few wisps of floating clouds pass by, like a few waves splashing in the sea, adding tidbits to the blue sky; The temperature is neither hot nor cold, and occasionally a cool breeze blows, as if you have just stepped out of the stuffy carriage, which makes people infinitely comfortable.

The trees on both sides of the mountain road are graceful and verdant, with yellow flowers the size of millet, hanging from the branches in clusters, emitting an alluring fragrance. Walking under the tree, people can't help but take a few more breaths. The winding mountain road is like a long ladder leading to the top of the mountain. Looking up, the whole mountain is like a brocade, and it is extremely gorgeous.

Fang Wei thought of the towering Taihang Mountain in his hometown, which was compared with the Wutong Mountain in front of him; Wutong Mountain is not as tall as Taihang Mountain, but it has the beauty of a southern girl; There are no towering trees in Taihang Mountain, but there are endless greens all over the mountains.

Taihang Mountain is rough, there are exposed boulders, although Wutong Mountain is not so majestic, but it is like a small jasper.

The autumn of Taihang Mountain, but very attractive, the autumn breeze with coolness, the leaves all over the mountain are dyed red and yellow, and there are ripe wild fruits everywhere, wafting out bursts of fragrance. Wutong Mountain wears green clothes all year round, like a young woman with charm, exuding seductive charm.

The two walked on the rugged mountain road, and Xiaoli introduced the geographical location of Wutong Mountain and some basic knowledge of it; Wutong Mountain is the remaining vein of Lotus Mountain, with the highest peak of more than 900 meters above sea level, located in the east of Lingnan Special Economic Zone, and is the first peak of the city; It is bordered by Yantian Port in the east, Lingnan City Reservoir in the west, and the bustling urban area and Mirs Bay in the South China Sea in the north and south.

Xiaoli heard that the Ministry of Forestry wants to approve the establishment of a national forest park, but it has not yet been developed, so few people come.

The two of them climbed to the mountainside, feeling a little tired, found a large rock, walked to the side and sat down to rest.

With a cool wind, brushed away the sweat on Fang Wei's forehead, he has not been on the mountain for many years, this time Xiaoli invited him to come to Wutong Mountain to play, Fang Wei touched the scene, remembered when he was a child, and Xiaoli played in Taihang Mountain.

Fang Wei took a slight breath, looked at Xiaoli and asked; "During the summer vacation of the second year of junior high school, a few of our friends went to the mountains to play, and you didn't let me dig wild flowers, do you remember? At that time, it seemed that your expression was weird, what was the reason? ”

Xiaoli replied without thinking; "Remember, it was a special day that I will never forget for the rest of my life."

Fang Wei said thoughtfully; "More than ten years ago, I think you may have forgotten, but I didn't expect to remember."

Xiaoli said; "Everything else can be forgotten, childhood friendship, you can't forget. Besides, you saved my life, do you think I can forget? ”

Fang Wei said; "Don't keep talking about life-saving things, it sounds uncomfortable. If you fall into a ditch and your head breaks and bleeds, whoever sees it will help, not to mention that we are partners. At your house that day, Xiao Wang said the same thing, as if you owe me a lot of favors. Don't do this in front of me in the future, do you say it's okay? ”

Xiaoli nodded in agreement. Fang Wei looked at Xiaoli, was silent for a while, and asked; "At that time, when you moved, why didn't you say hello, tell me, and leave when you said go, I regretted it at the time."

Xiaoli pondered for a moment and began to tell her story;

Xiaoli was born in the army compound, but she grew up in Fang Village, until now, Xiaoli and Fang Village still have a deep relationship, and they are still attached to the place where they grew up.

Xiaoli is most impressed by the majestic Taihang Mountain, with verdant trees, birds singing and flowers, green fields, and the flowing river in the south of the village.

In summer, playing in the water by the river, picking flowers on the mountain, a group of innocent and naughty friends, laughing and playing carefree. The rugged path of Taihang Mountain, the fragrance of wild flowers wafting from both sides, refreshing people's hearts and lungs.

Xiaoli always felt that her heart was still in that land. In the most critical years of her growth, the people who accompanied her through her childhood happily were poor and happy rural children like Fang Wei.

Xiaoli has been pampered since she was a child, and she has developed a willful bad problem, and she is very picky about eating and dressing. When she and Fang Wei were playing together, she saw the poor life in the countryside, the children in the village were shabby, and it was difficult to eat enough, and her young heart was greatly impacted.

Back then, Xiaoli was young and didn't understand the suffering in the world, but when she grew up, she gradually understood that her superior life was simply compared to Fang Wei's poverty; One in heaven and one on earth.

The usual snacks in Xiaoli's eyes, when she gave them to Fang Wei, he carefully put them in his pocket like a treasure, for fear of losing them.

Fang Wei's every move of these rural children deeply touched Xiaoli's young heart, and after a long time, Xiaoli changed a lot of squeamishness.

Xiaoli's changes attracted the attention of adults, and her parents were also puzzled and puzzled. When they saw Xiaoli, playing with rural children, and returning home like a native, they were distressed and relieved.

Parents often say to their colleagues; "Our family Xiaoli has changed, she is more sensible than before, she knows how to be considerate of her parents, and she loves to lose her temper, but she has changed a lot, and she is not so willful."

At that time, the rural conditions were not good, and there was not enough to eat, let alone snacks. He was reluctant to eat the sugar cubes and snacks that Xiaoli gave Fang Wei, the sugar cubes were left for his younger brothers and sisters, and the snacks were left for his elderly grandmother, which left a deep impression on Xiaoli.

Once, Xiaoli was standing at the gate of the factory, waiting for her parents to get off work, and saw Fang Wei's thin body on the dirt road not far away, carrying a bundle of firewood taller than him, walking hard, which deeply shocked Xiaoli.

Xiaoli, who has no worries about food and clothing, food and clothing, and does not know the sufferings of the world, has since changed and become like her parents said; "Sensible".

I remember one time, about in the winter afternoon, the northwest wind was blowing, it was very cold, and I shivered when I sat in the classroom, Fang Wei came to school wearing wet cotton pants, Fang Wei may have forgotten, but Xiaoli still remembers it clearly. At that time, she asked Fang Wei; "Why are your pants wet?"

Fang Wei said; "I accidentally stepped on the ice and fell into a puddle and got wet."

Xiaoli said; "Why don't you change to a pair of dry cotton pants?"

Fang Wei replied; "I just have a pair of cotton pants, nothing to change. It doesn't matter if your pants are wet, warm your legs for a while and they will dry. ”

Xiaoli listened to Fang Wei's words so easily, she didn't take going to school in wet pants seriously at all, Xiaoli felt at that time that Fang Wei's family was too poor and life was not easy.

Although rural children are poor, their attitude towards life and optimism are also imperceptibly influencing Xiaoli.

That day, when a group of friends were playing in the mountains, Xiaoli originally wanted to tell Fang Wei that she was leaving, but because she couldn't determine which day to leave, there was no exact date, so she didn't tell him.

After her father set a date for moving, Xiaoli went to Fang Wei's house several times, but she didn't see him, so she had to follow her parents.

At that time, Xiaoli was too naïve to think of leaving a note for Fang Wei, and when she grew up, Xiaoli regretted it when she thought about it.

She returned to the city with her father, and not long after, the troops began to disarm, and Xiaoli's father's unit was not among the reductions.

Xiaoli's grandmother, who is over 80 years old, has been living with her father. The parents took Xiaoli to the third-tier factory, and the grandmother stayed in the city to take care of Xiaoli's two sisters. Grandma is old and can't adapt to the climate in the north, so she nagged all day long to go back to her hometown in the south.

When Xiaoli's father was very young, her grandfather died, and her grandmother pulled her father up with a handful of and urine. My father and my grandmother have a deep relationship, and my father never refutes my grandmother's words, and most of the time he is obedient.

Grandma seems to have a premonition of something, and she always keeps mentioning the matter of returning to her hometown. My father had no choice but to fulfill my grandmother's wishes.

After a period of consideration, my father took the initiative to request the superior leaders to work in the local area. The leaders of the troops, many of whom were father's comrades-in-arms for many years, understood the actual situation of Xiaoli's family, and after a period of regret, they quickly approved their father's application.

Xiaoli's family returned to Nanling, about two or three years later, my grandmother had a serious illness, and my father used all his connections to try all the good medicines he could buy, including imported medicines, but they couldn't cure his grandmother's illness, and it didn't take long for his grandmother to pass away.

The death of my grandmother hit my father hard, and my hair turned almost white overnight. It took a long time for my father to recover.

Fathers are not like they used to be, working like crazy and rarely taking care of the family. Subsequently, my father paid more and more attention to family affection and felt more and more the importance of family companionship.

Xiao Li's father felt that he was getting old and had the intention of retiring, and the central government required cadres to be younger and more knowledgeable, and the voice of leaders at all levels was getting higher and higher, so his father did not hesitate to retreat from the leadership position and give way to young people.

After Xiaoli's father retired, he became a consultant, but he was actually at home for leisure, planting flowers and grass, cultivating himself, and never interfering in political affairs.
