Chapter 83: Wicker Forest
Before the spring flowers bloomed, Lin Jiaping left the Shagang Township Government compound, far from waiting to play by the reservoir with Ma Xiaole.
This matter was arranged by solemn letters, fundamentally speaking, he really wanted to be good for his niece Lin Jiaping, and always felt that she should find another man to live a good life, instead of mixing with Ma Xiaole, a young man.
The reason why I say this is because the relationship between Lin Jiaping and Ma Xiaole is not too secret in the Shagang Township Government. The reason is that Ji Yuanhua noticed the clue, so he said a few words to everyone with his colander-like mouth, and the result gradually spread.
In this regard, Zhuang Zhengxin was originally going to get Ma Xiaole away and let him leave the township government compound, but he didn't care where he went, it was estimated that most of them would go back to the village, in short, he would put pressure on Feng Yishan. But Liu Shuying was there, which made him change his mind.
Zhuang Chongxin heard that Liu Shuying was Ma Xiaole's cousin, and thought that if Ma Xiaole was taken away, Liu Shuying, as his cousin, would definitely have an opinion, so it was unlikely that he would want to contact her.
The contact set is almost like this, put aside ordinary women, Zhuang Chongxin has no worries at all, she can go straight, and she can get her hands on it for a while, but he feels that Liu Shuying is not an ordinary woman, whether it is soft or hard methods, she can't be abrupt, she has to take her time.
After comprehensive consideration, Zhuang Chongxin finally decided to get his niece Lin Jiaping away, and he entrusted a big relationship and got Lin Jiaping to work in the county light industrial and commercial field, leaving Ma Xiaole.
Lin Jiaping was reluctant at first, and she was still thinking about going to the reservoir with Ma Xiaole to play! However, she couldn't stand the pressure of solemn letters, and felt that after all, she was going to work in the county seat, and she couldn't ask for it at all, and she also thought about it, but she just went to the county seat to work, and it wasn't like it was gone, and the world was separated. So, she talked to Ma Xiaole about her ideas.
Ma Xiaole also wanted Lin Jiaping to leave Shagang Township quickly, so he said that what was there to go to the county seat, it would be better to go to the county seat, and no matter what she did when she went to find her, no one in Shagang Township would know, let alone meddle with things. As soon as Lin Jiaping heard that this was the case, she went to the county seat happily.
After Lin Jiaping left, Ma Xiaole suddenly felt relaxed, you must know that she, an anxious woman, does not know how to cover up, and sometimes in public, some words and behaviors make it really difficult for him to accept calmly, but she feels that it doesn't matter.
However, although Lin Jiaping is relaxed on this side, she is under pressure on the other hand. Feng Yishan came over again and said that he should go down to investigate and investigate, get something to do, and make the township's economy a little better.
As soon as Ma Xiaole's face showed embarrassment, Feng Yishan said, you Ma Xiaole can make the whole village prosperous in Xiaonanzhuang Village, and you can't toss it when you get to the township? I have to get a highlight to see how much, and if you are not promoted at the time, you will not be convinced.
Ma Xiaole nodded again and again and said yes, and after he went back, he thought about it for a long time, thinking that no matter what, he couldn't do the same thing anymore, could he still let every household in the fifteen villages of Shagang Township grow vegetables, raise chickens, ducks and geese?
If you think too much, you will be distracted, and your spirit will not be good.
Ma Xiaole's wilting appearance for several days in a row attracted Liu Shuying's attention and asked what was going on. He was embarrassed to say that he was worried about his work, and that he didn't have face, so he said that he didn't know, but he couldn't lift his energy.
Liu Shuying thought about it and said that it might be because she didn't go home for many days and missed home. It just so happened that she also had to go home to see the house, clean up, and not let the house be covered with cobwebs, so she had to go back to clean up. And the crops in the field should not be left behind, but should also be entrusted to the care of a personal family, and when the harvest comes, the two families will divide half of it. In the end, Liu Shuying proposed to go back to the village with Ma Xiaole to have a look, and it would be good to relax.
Ma Xiaole agreed without hesitation, although he knew that it would not help him in his work, but he did not go back for a while, and it was time to take a look at Ma Changgen and Hu Aiying, and do his filial piety.
"Then let's go tomorrow at noon, leave after lunch, ask for a leave in the afternoon, and come back after dark." Liu Shuying said.
"Yes, I'll go back tomorrow." Ma Xiaole nodded in agreement.
The next day, the sun was shining well at noon, and the smell of spring was strong.
Ma Xiaole walked in the office, felt a little hot, took off his coat and hung it on the back of the chair, shook his arms, and recited two sentences aloud: "Spring Girl is here!" The man is in a hurry to undress! Then he walked to the back window to see if the last snow on the roof behind the building had melted.
If the snow melts, the spring season will really come.
The snow is long gone, and there is not even a trace of stains.
"Why are you so busy like this, you didn't even notice it!" Ma Xiaole was excited for a while, hurriedly turned around and opened the door and went out, standing in the corridor and looking down, there were really flowers in the flower beds in the courtyard.
After eating, Ma Xiaole originally planned to arrange a car with Wu Yihong, but Liu Shuying refused to let her, saying that it would be good to ride a bicycle.
Ma Xiaole listened to Liu Shuying's words, found a sturdy new bicycle, the "Flying Pigeon" brand, and set off happily with Liu Shuying.
The road to Xiaonanzhuang Village is still the same, with twists and turns, but fortunately there are no potholes, or if you sit on the back of the bicycle, your butt will have to fall apart.
The warm sun was shining overhead, and the gentle breeze was blowing in Ma Xiaole's ears, very pleasant, "Shuying!" He was used to using the name, "It's all right, the breeze is blowing comfortably." ”
Liu Shuying was really comfortable in her heart when she heard this, and couldn't help but gently lean on Ma Xiaole's back, wrap her arms around his waist, and put her face on his back, "Xiaole, I want to call you, but I can't now." ”
"Why?" Ma Xiaole asked knowingly.
Liu Shuying only smiled silently, hugged Ma Xiaole's waist tightly, and stuck tighter.
The afternoon sun was still shining, shining brightly on the new steel rims of the bike.
Ma Xiaole pedaled a few times, pressed the bell, and the bicycle drove forward quickly in a series of crisp bells.
"Xiaole, let's take the path, I'll go back by myself when I get to the village, or it's hard to say if someone sees it." Yoo Sook-young is immersed in happiness, but she doesn't get carried away, and she knows how to avoid reality.
"Okay, then let's take the trail on the West Ridge." Ma Xiaole turned onto the Xiling trail, here is the undulating terrain, the crops are planted less, most of them are inserted with some wicker, the willow buds are green early, and now it is a green patch.
"Shuying, look how good this wicker is!" Ma Xiaole shouted excitedly and pedaled the bicycle very vigorously.
"yes, this wicker is really beautiful!" Liu Shuying whispered a reply.
Although the voice was small, Ma Xiaole could hear it clearly, he braked the front and rear brakes, supported the car with his feet, turned his head and said to Liu Shuying, "Shuying, I want to roll in the wicker field with you for a while!" ”
Liu Shuying blushed and still whispered, "I don't care about you, it's up to you now anyway." ”
When Ma Xiaole saw that this was the case, he couldn't bear it, crooked the bicycle and let Liu Shuying get down, then carried the bike across the ditch, and hid the bicycle in the reeds behind the ditch, "Shuying, so no one can know." After speaking, he jumped over and took Liu Shuying's hand and walked back, and got into the dense wicker forest.
The wicker forest rustles in the spring breeze.
Ma Xiaole raised his foot and stepped on the two rows of wicker, pressing against each other, soft, like a big mat.
Yoo Sook-young was placed on it......
When the two of them got up, the sun was about to set on the top of the western mountain.
"Shuying, shall we go back to the village?" Ma Xiaole asked.
"It's a little late, I can't go back, let's go back to my hometown." Liu Shuying said, "Bring some wicker back and weave a few baskets." ”
The two folded some wicker and went back laughing.
Unexpectedly, the wicker brought back inadvertently gave Ma Xiaole a new vision.
When she returned to the village that day, Liu Shuying peeled the wicker that night, soaked it in salted water, took it out the next day, and dried it in two days. In this way, the wicker is snow-white and tough, and the woven things will not get out of shape.
A few days later, when Liu Shuying went to the township government compound early in the morning, she brought five baskets of large and small to Ma Xiaole. At that time, he was still sleeping in the house, and Liu Shuying went in as his cousin, so naturally he didn't say anything.
Ma Xiaole looked at the small willow baskets, large and small, and felt that they were really good-looking, and praised Liu Shuying's ingenuity. Liu Shuying didn't say anything to him, because the health team had work in the morning, and she had to go and see it and try to make the compound as clean and tidy as possible.
After Liu Shuying left, Ma Xiaole also got up. After some washing, I was ready to go to the cafeteria to eat, but before I went out, Wu Yihong walked over with a stack of envelopes, "Pony, bring these envelopes with you when you go to the office, and you want to use them for documents." ”
"Okay, let's put it on the table first." Ma Xiaole bent over to tie his shoelaces at the door, and said without raising his head.
Wu Yihong entered the room, and as soon as she saw the small basket on the table, she praised it, "Ah, such a delicate little basket, it's really good!" She walked out the door with the two of them, "Where did this basket come from, can you give it to the two of you?" ”
"Cheng, you can take it, wicker basket, you can make as much as you want."
Wu Yihong looked down at the basket, "Isn't it just right to put this small basket on the bedside or table, and it's so beautiful, if you dye it a little color, it's still a good decoration!" ”
Ma Xiaole laughed when he heard this, and felt that Wu Yihong's mind was broken, "Director Wu, I think what's wrong with you, aren't you just two small baskets, if I give you a hundred and eighty, you won't be happy." ”
"If there are one hundred and eighty, I'll sell them on the street."
"What are you selling, it's only an idler like you who buys it." Ma Xiaole laughed and said, "What's the use of buying this thing, what can it hold?" ”
"You don't understand this, didn't you just say, dye it and make it beautiful, it's not just about loading things, it looks good everywhere, as long as it's like that."
"What's the use of just looking good, who do you sell it to on the street, I'm afraid there aren't many people like Director Wu."
"There are really not many people like me, but people abroad like it." Wu Yihong said, "If there are really more, I will sell them abroad!" ”
"Sell abroad?" Ma Xiaole tilted his head and smiled, "You can be big, you can sell this small basket abroad!" ”
"Well, pony, you don't understand that." Wu Yihong said quite proudly, "I have a relative, an uncle who is a distant relative, who works in the city and is from the Economic and Trade Bureau, so he can help contact and sell abroad!" ”
