Chapter 45: Zhi Dafu laughs
A few days of confusion passed, the novelty of the mountains to the attraction of the people in the city is fatal, here a grass and trees, full of insects and birds, all over the medicinal materials, especially the novel food, so that several people from the city forget to return.
I went up the mountain with Uncle Qiu to beat pine seeds for a day, and the fried pine seeds were fragrant and oily, and even the house smelled of rosin. After that, Qiu Di took everyone up the mountain to collect medicinal herbs for a day, wild peach pits, codonopsis seedlings, and astragalus roots, loaded with two Louzi, and actually caught more than 20 scorpions, Bao Xiaosan was honored to be stung by a scorpion. Another day passed, and the four of them lay in ambush by the river, waiting for the beast that came to drink water early in the morning, but they returned and ran into a wild boar, and the big guy weighing more than three hundred pounds, the four of them hid behind the tree, and did not dare to say anything at all.
Another day to wake up, Guan Qianjiao stretched her waist, confused and touched the mobile phone, fortunately, there is solar charging to support today, a look at the time is already more than ten o'clock in the morning, he got up in panic, put on clothes, rushed out, said that he was going to leave today, yesterday I was tired of playing, I have slept.
In the yard, Qiu Di's mother was rubbing the empty persimmons into the cornmeal with the cornmeal, and when she asked, a few goods went to beat persimmons again, and she heard that Qianjiao didn't have a stomachache and was addicted to playing, if it weren't for Qiu Di going to the city today to see the exam results announced by Zhang Bang, I'm afraid that neither of them would want to leave.
"Girl...... You rest, after lunch, his uncle will come to pick you up. Qiu Di's mother said.
"Hey, I see, thank you, Auntie. Guan Qianjiao said sweetly.
Oh, look at this girl is handsome, Qiu Di's mother smiled, looked at Guan Qianjiao, so happy, Guan Qianjiao hurriedly fled back to the house, the average old man is like this, he is worried when he sees his children being single, and when he looks at the children of other families, he feels that he can enter his own door, she likes the kindness of the old man, but she is afraid that the old man will ask curiously, and he will not say coldly: Girl, you are willing to have a wooden family!?
Got into the house, Guan Qianjiao put aside the packed luggage, folded the quilt, and laid the mattress, the conditions here are really not difficult in his opinion, the sunny room, this season, the sun is full of half of the bed, Qiu Di gave up the room, the old man laid a new quilt, the old-fashioned sunflower sheets, covered with a smell of sunshine.
Packed up, tucked down the sheets, inadvertently turned over, accidentally, a copy of "University Language" under the bed fell down, it should be Qiu Di's school textbook, she flipped through it, just put it away, opened it again, and flashed in front of her eyes as if there was a photo, picked out, her eyes lit up as if she had found a secret.
Yay, beauty!
University lakeside, white jade fence, long hair fluttering, beautiful woman in white dress, the photo turned over in her hand, and when she looked at it, she was indeed a very beautiful girl, like a movie star, and the smile added a lot to the photo.
Classmates?girlfriend?
There is not much difference between these two guesses, Guan Qianjiao pouted, and strangely felt that she seemed to have a little sour taste, she put her things away, went out, and asked where to pick persimmons, fortunately, not far, turning the mountain road into the ravine, she walked on the mountain road boredly, and followed the direction indicated by Qiu Di's mother.
By the way, I have always wanted to find a chance to be alone, and I have always felt that I have a lot to say, but I have never found this opportunity, Guan Qianjiao always feels like she has lost something, even if she leaves, she is not at ease.........
.......................................
.......................................
Boom chirp...... Large and small, red and green persimmons, falling like raindrops, Bao Xiaosan picked up happily, occasionally encountered the soft ones, broke the seams, he stuffed the meat and vegetables into his mouth, and threw them in two bites, and continued to pick.
Hurala...... Qiu Di climbed on the high place of the tree, shaking the branches, the ripe persimmons kept falling, Geng Baolei stood on a high ground and watched, there were more than a dozen persimmon trees of all sizes in the ditch, a tree was fiery, and no one picked it at all.
"Qiu Di, why is it that no one picks such a delicious thing? We in the south sell this thing for several yuan a pound. Geng Baolei shouted.
"But here, you pick the mountain and sell it, a few cents, even the oil money is not enough, a few years ago there was not enough food, take persimmons and soft dates, who is still rare now. Qiu Di said.
"I found that it's not bad to live in this place, the air is fresh and pollution-free, the vegetables and grains are delicious and natural, oh my god, the fairy days." Geng Baolei shouted.
"If you live for half a month and no one talks to you, you can suffocate you. Bao Xiaosan scolded, Qiu Di smiled, and shouted to Geng Baolei in the high place: "Come down, go back together, it's almost." β
Geng Baolei, who got up to leave, inadvertently saw a few hanging on the branches, the red and glamorous ones were quite tempting, he shouted that those few were really good-looking, Qiu Di couldn't reach them, he looked around, picked up two thick wood sticks, learned the action of Qiu Di throwing, swished...... Came a little, floated, overheaded.
Sou...... Again, low, and down.
Immediately after, there was an "ah" shout below, Geng Baolei looked down weakly, and Bao Xiaosan covered his head and scolded: "Who smashed me......? It's your dog's day again. β
Bao Xiaosan operated with a stick, chased and jumped to the high ground, Geng Baolei said bluntly that it was not intentional, turned around and ran, one ran, one chased, on the road, Guan Qianjiao looked at it dumbfounded: "What's wrong?"
"Accidents, accidents. Geng Baolei didn't stop, he accelerated and ran.
"Deliberately, deliberately...... See I don't beat you dog. Bao Xiaosan chased after him, chased for a long time, and finally grabbed it, and the two scuffled and rolled to the slope.
Guan Qianjiao shook her head, this pair is about to become enemies, either to find fault with the quarrel, or to find fault with the hand, she looked at the kanxia, carefully went down the ditch, walked under the persimmon tree, a large handful of red and bright persimmons were handed to Qiu Di who picked persimmons, Qiu Di smiled, held the bag, let her put it in, the two squatted, picked, and after a while, picked seven, seven, eight, eight, and eight after a while, Guan Qianjiao looked for the topic and said: "Your mother said, your uncle will pick up at noon, and we will go together in the afternoon." β
"Ah, got it. Qiu Di said.
At home, Qiu Di doesn't have the bad character outside, he looks like a good boy everywhere, and he is always worried these days, it is rare to say a few words, Guan Qianjiao said again: "You know?"
"yes, got it. Qiu Di was stunned and looked at Guan Qianjiao, who had been wronged.
Guan Qianjiao asked very unhappily: "If we leave, maybe we won't see each other for the rest of our lives, and the high-achieving students who graduated from your Chinese Department don't have a parting sentimentality or anything?"
Qiu Di was stunned for a moment, laughed, Guan Qianjiao also teased him, and laughed along, picked up the persimmons, tied the bag, Qiu Di said with a smile: "Look at those two goods, can I be sad? It's okay, when you are tired of city life, come here to the countryside to play for a few days." β
"I'm afraid there aren't many opportunities, but as soon as I walk into the hectic atmosphere of city life, there is time to relax. Guan Qianjiao said.
"No, every time I go home, I feel relaxed and comfortable, but after a while, I can't hold back my cheapness anymore, and I have to go out to find a job...... Hey, if you don't have a cure, people won't be satisfied. Qiu Di said, giving Guan Qianjiao a black smile.
The smile was so sincere, Guan Qianjiao unexpectedly remembered the story of Uncle Qiu, for the descendants of this hero, she inexplicably had an indescribable feeling, watching Qiu Di tie her pockets neatly, she walked closer, turned her head sideways, looked up, looked at the tall Qiu Di, like a voyeur, when Qiu Di found out, she was shocked, touched her face and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Not really. Guan Qianjiao snickered, she said in a straight posture: "Hey, we're leaving, don't leave a mustard in your heart." β
"What do you mean?" Qiu Di asked.
"It's just to go to Tunbing Town, I lied to you once, I think you seem to have a prejudice against me. Guan Qianjiao said, when Qiu Di's expression converged, she said with a little embarrassment: "Actually, this is what I do, I'm used to lies, and I don't think there's anything wrong, just like your father was fooled into the battlefield by the squad leader, no one will tell him what the real situation is...... If I had sued you at the time, I was a veteran commercial spy, and you wouldn't have taken such good care of me, would you?"
Guan Qianjiao looked a little embarrassed, she stuck out her tongue when she said these words, she looked very cute by nature, Qiu Di looked at it intently, the red clothes, cowboys, and doll heads were a little longer, and her face seemed to be a little rounder, as if she had only now discovered that Guan Qianjiao was very patient, and Qiu Di looked at her so strangely for a long time.
"What's wrong?Is there something wrong?" Guan Qianjiao also touched her face nervously, for fear that she would be so black.
"No, I found out today that you are not so dressed as a student party, but you are actually very beautiful. Qiu Di said.
"Of course, if I were ten centimeters taller, I would definitely be able to go to the beauty pageant. Guan Qianjiao looked a little proud, and her heart was full of joy, she pointed to Qiu Di and said, "Don't ...... me There are prejudices. β
"There are no prejudices, but I'm angry. Qiu Di said, glaring at Guan Qianjiao: "For those who deceive me, I must retaliate." β
"Then you're too careful. Guan Qianjiao said, coquettish.
"It's better to pick the day than to hit the sun, I have to get this one back. Qiu Di rolled up his sleeves and made a gesture, it was obviously a perverted posture, so strange that Guan Qianjiao was dumbfounded, Qiu Di opened his teeth and danced his claws, and stopped a few centimeters away from Guan Qianjiao, Guan Qianjiao didn't seem to believe that this kind of thing would happen, and looked at him stunned, Qiu Di asked vigilantly: "Did you bring anti-wolf spray?"
"Nope. Guan Qianjiao shook her head.
"That's good...... Give me your hand, don't move. Qiu Di said, pinched Guan Qianjiao's hand, Guan Qianjiao screamed in shock, Qiu Di said with a lewd smile: "Haha...... If you shout and cut your throat, no one will drip it, haha...... Little lady, I've got you. β
"Yike...... What are you doing? I hate ......" Guan Qianjiao shouted, Qiu Di's hand reached out to her chest, she struggled nervously, and then Qiu Di let go of her in an instant, she looked at Qiu Di's fingers, and was stunned again.
It's okay, Qiu Di just caught a flower ladybug from his collar.
"Huh...... It's flat, I also lied to you once, for you to play. Qiu Di smiled, put the flower ladybug in Guan Qianjiao's hand, Guan Qianjiao looked at it, rolled his eyes, Qiu Di carried the persimmon on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Ladybug, we call it Flower Lady in the local dialect here." I mean, it's it. β
"Nasty. Guan Qianjiao said stupidly, blushing a little. Qiu Di looked at her like this, and asked curiously: "Hey, sister, you haven't had an emotional experience, have you?"
"Private question, refusal to answer. Guan Qianjiao said. Qiu Di laughed it off and didn't ask any more questions, but she felt that she was being neglected, so she followed Qiu Di boringly and asked, "I want to ask you a personal question, do you answer?"
"It depends. But don't believe too much when a man speaks. Qiu Di said.
"I'm a spy, and I have the ability to tell the real from the fake...... By the way, I have to say I'm sorry, in your room, I accidentally saw a photo of a beautiful woman, it can't be ...... Girlfriend, right?" asked Guan Qianjiao curiously and cautiously.
Qiu Di's bag shrugged down, his footsteps paused slightly, and then continued to move forward, he said: "She is my introduction to the party, the secretary of the student union of the Youth League Committee of the school, and my dream lover back then. β
"Wow, love species, I didn't even find it. Guan Qianjiao shouted in shock, and she asked, "What about later? Don't tell me a clichΓ© ending." β
"What's the clichΓ© ending?" Qiu Di asked.
That is, the beautiful woman kicked the poor boy and finally fell into the arms of the rich. Guan Qianjiao said with a smile, this is the most likely ending.
"Guess wrong, she has a very high vision, her father is a university professor, and her father was a deputy provincial cadre in the previous generation, and he was born with a golden spoon in his mouth. Qiu Di said.
"Wow, Bai Fumei?" Guan Qianjiao praised sourly, and curiously sarcastically mocked Qiu Di: "Then your result, will it be more tragic?"
"It's not a tragedy, when I was a student, I discussed literature, ideals, and the future, but I had a common language, but it was different in society, she always took care of the face of a poor boy like me, and she would rush to pay for dinner. As for me, I always feel very shameless in front of her, I can't bring the beauty back and feed her fried noodles with shredded pickles every day, right?"
Qiu Di said, listening to Guan Qianjiao laughing, laughing and feeling wrong, quickly shut up, she stopped, Qiu Di said with a smile: "In fact, life and politics are the same, the economic base determines the superstructure, and it also determines the emotional foundation of the individual. β
Guan Qianjiao was unexpectedly curious about the ending of this story, and she asked: "What about your dream lover?"
"We were both party members, and I was honorably returned to the ranks of the proletariat, that is, the officially defined vagrants. She renounced her faith and defected. threw himself into the arms of the evil bourgeoisie. Qiu Di said, looking back and smiling.
"What do you mean?" Guan Qianjiao was stunned.
"Stupid. Qiu Di smiled and explained: "I'm going abroad, hehe." β
Guan Qianjiao punched him twice in the back angrily, Qiu Di laughed and went on the road, and when he saw that Bao Xiaosan and Geng Baolei had gone back early, he was so angry that he scolded something, changed his shoulders, and walked ahead, Guan Qianjiao couldn't help, just followed, but at this time the knot was solved, and she suddenly found that it was a man who was cautious and could downplay his feelings and not say a bad word about the other party, and his personality should be open-minded.
When she saw the mountains, she once again remembered the lonely figure: Qiu Qianjun. The two of them looked like they were carrying things, so she said in a ghostly way: "There are exceptions to your theory...... Like, your dad. β
"Oh, don't compare him, that generation lived in an ideological environment, and their minds were full of loyalty to the country. I tell you, my father lived on this mountain before I was born, and there were several opportunities to go down the mountain and return to the city, but he gave up, and the opportunity was given to other rangers. Qiu Di said.
"That's not bad. Guan Qianjiao said.
"You don't have power to judge, unless you can hold on this mountain for thirty years. Qiu Di said.
Guan Qianjiao was choked, thinking about it, she thought that she might not be able to reach this realm, she chased two steps, and asked curiously: "Then your father is a hero of the Vietnam War, and he is a disabled veteran, and he has no care in civil affairs?"
"Yes! There is a bag of noodles every year, and then a bag of rice is added, and the leader thinks that my home is too far away, so he asks the township to notify me to go to the county to collect it. Qiu Di said, listening to Guan Qianjiao's surprise and laughter, there was more nonsense, Qiu Di added: "Later, the county civil affairs bureau made a list of condolences and said that my father was a regular employee of the Forestry Bureau, with a salary, and he did not meet the conditions for assistance, and even the condolences were gone." β
Guan Qianjiao couldn't cry or laugh when she heard it, and only after a while did she say abruptly: "Is this okay?
"There is something more excessive than this, my dad said, there are hands and feet, you can't reach out to the organization, you can't eat and drink, you can't shout poverty to the country, as long as you donate to the project every year, my dad is definitely the first to report, more than the director of the bureau to donate, everyone said, the head of the old enemy is crippled on the battlefield, and he will not save, he will donate. Qiu Di said, Guan Qianjiao couldn't help laughing.
She smiled, but there was a sense of reverence, that generation, there is always something worthy of respect for the younger generations, she smiled and said: "Actually, when you say this, you are quite proud of your father in your heart, right?"
"Of course, it's all supported by my father's spiritual wealth, otherwise you think I'm so frustrated, it's easy to live until now. Qiu Di laughed.
Guan Qianjiao also smiled, she knew that this was an open-minded and tenacious character from her father, and it was also the answer to why he didn't give up in Tunbing Town.
The last lunch was quite sumptuous, stewed rabbit, persimmon buns, potato cakes, plus a plate of scorpions soaked in light salted water overnight, fried in oil, all turned into tender yellow, Bao Xiaosan and a few people instigated Guan Qianjiao to eat one, but I didn't expect it to be crispy and delicious, unexpectedly, Guan Qianjiao screamed, and a few people rushed to eat.
The old couple watched with a smile, and when the car came after the meal, a few climbed into the car, Qiu Qianli held his son in one hand and luggage in the other, and sent a few miles of land eagerly like every time he sent his son on a long trip.
So the four people sitting in the car body, once again froze such a scene, on the mountain beam, the white-haired mother, the rickety father, waving his hand, reluctantly, walking farther and farther, in the sight, the brilliant sunshine after autumn, as if to pave them with a circle of brilliance, even if the road turns back, even if the mountains are separated, the scene still can not dissipate.
Not in the eyes, but in the heart.
....................................
....................................
When I went there was simpler than when I came, the tricycle took the mountain, Qiu Di's sister who was married in the township rented a van, sent it directly to the secondary road, took the intercity shuttle bus that passed, and arrived at Xiangshan County in two hours.
Regardless of the fatigue of the journey, the four people carried a large bag and a small bag, and went straight to the public notice list of the county No. 1 Middle School, and was startled when they got out of the car, the private cars were lined up for two kilometers, and the black pressure of the heads was piled up all over the road, and the wall of the list was dozens of meters long, openly recruiting teachers, and many units recruiting civil servants lined up.
When he arrived at the place, Qiu Di hesitated, and Bao Xiaosan pulled him and said, "Go and have a look." β
"I was nervous. Qiu Di said, did you see him hesitate like this.
Geng Baolei and Guan Qianjiao laughed at him, Bao Xiaosan laughed so hard that his front teeth were about to fall off, and pointed at him and said, "What's so nervous about this? Look at your character." β
"I've been off the list five times in a row, and I have a phobia. Qiu Di said embarrassedly.
It's okay, look at the luggage, the rest squeezed in to see, counted the list to find Qiu Di's name, just squeezed in, the crowd was in an uproar, Bao Xiaosan took a look, ouch, fainted two, Geng Baolei asked the people near the left what was this, and someone replied: It's okay, there are many people who can't pass the exam for a few years, and there will be fainting as soon as the list is released.
"Yo, this shows that Qiu Di's psychological element zhì is quite good, at least he hasn't fainted. Geng Baolei said.
"You're not going to say a nice thing. Guan Qianjiao twisted him, he was in pain, and rubbed his posture and said: "This is a good word, let me ask you, don't you expect him to fall off the list." β
"Yes, it's not on the list, just follow us. Bao Xiaosan said with a smile.
Guan Qianjiao stopped talking, in fact, she didn't expect this, but she was thinking, compared to giving another blow, she was looking forward to Qiu Di being on the list.
squeezed in, counted ten lists, and fainted another girl, who was carried away by her family. On a certain list, Bao Xiaosan was the first to find it, and he shouted to the two people who were crowded: "Here, here...... High School Chinese Teacher...... Wow, Qiu Di is in the front, let me always look for it. β
"You think he's you. Geng Baolei squeezed up to take a look, and said dumbfounded: "Third place?"
"It's awesome, more than 100 people, the top three in the exam. Bao Xiaosan admired the authentic and looked at the high score of 94.3, so surprised.
Even more surprised, Geng Baolei said with a sluggish look in his eyes: "But only two ...... You didn't see that the first and second colors are different, that's admitted, and the back ones are all unsuccessful, stupid. β
"Huh?" Bao Xiaosan looked at it, and then suddenly understood, hahaha looked up to the sky and laughed.
Geng Baolei and Guan Qianjiao pulled one arm one by one, one twisted, one pinched, don't let Bao Xiaosan lose his temper, Geng Baolei said, how sad people are, are you happy to be like this? A little sympathy, okay? Guan Qianjiao has also been educated, in case he is annoyed and angry, be careful to beat you.
Even bluffing and frightening, it was easy to suppress Bao Xiaosan's overexcited posture, the three of them squeezed out of the crowd watching the list, turned around and stood in front of Qiu Di, Qiu Di was looking at the luggage, squatting, two arms on his knees, boring and spitting bubbles, he looked up at the three of them, Guan Qianjiao and Geng Baolei were a complicated look, with sympathetic eyes, and Bao Xiaosan was strict for a few seconds, and suddenly smiled so much that the facial features on his face gathered together.
"Looks like it's the result you're looking for. β
Qiu Di accurately deduced this unexpectedly result, and he was so disappointed.
Those who watched the list that day later saw such a spectacle, there was a black, straight young man, standing straight in front of the list, standing for two hours without moving, next to him, there has been a man spitting and persuading:
β...... Hey, you talk, don't do that...... The test is already very good, the third place, what is this called, treasure eggs? Yes, Tanhua, it's even more awesome than picking flowers......"
"Don't be like this, we think you're awesome, really...... Look at you, Putin is not as tall as you, look at your complexion, Obama is not as dark as you, what's so good about being a teacher? Everyone Aoi is called Cang, and you have to be a boss at the worst.........
The viewer laughed in unison, but was persuaded but did not laugh, in the sympathetic and even pitying eyes of others, he seemed to understand what kind of mentality the protagonist in that war story had, and what he feared was not the shadow of war, but was drowned in sympathy and pity with sneer............
