Uncle Meng is a deep patient who loves fishing.

In the past few days, Lu An and Meng Qingshui accompanied him to the suburban reservoir to fish twice, but they didn't catch many fish, and they also broke Uncle Meng's favorite fishing rod, and they felt distressed there for a long time.

Lu An comforted: "Uncle, if the old one doesn't go, the new one won't come, I'll buy you two good ones if I have the chance." ”

"Hehe, I'll wait for you to say this, anyway, you're not short of money, I'll look forward to it in advance." Meng Zhenhai said this happily.

When the fish didn't work, Lu An put the fishing rod he had bought temporarily in the trunk, and then the three of them went to the reservoir owner to buy some fish and go home for a tooth sacrifice.

On the morning of the fifth day, the sky finally cleared.

Lu An took Qing Shui and Xiaomei to buy some New Year's goods and then rushed to Qianzhen, and when he drove to Qijiang Road after Liudu Village, he encountered a broken down bus.

What's even more unexpected is that among the passengers who were forced to stay, Lu An met two acquaintances, male Shaoqing and Sun Lina.

The male young man was full of bags all over his body, and the weight was not light at first glance.

And Sun Lina is even more exaggerated, holding a baby in her hand, shaking and coaxing the child in her hand.

Lu An and Meng Qingshui glanced at each other, decisively pulled over, and then opened the door.

There were few private cars these days, let alone an Audi car, which attracted the attention of the group on the side of the road when it drove from a distance, staring at it without blinking.

No, Lu An and Meng Qingshui opened the door, and the male Shaoqing and Sun Lina recognized the two.

Sun Lina shouted in surprise: "Ah! Lu An, Meng Qingshui, you can all meet you. ”

"Comrade Sun Lina, long time no see." Lu An waved his hand like a leader and walked over jokingly.

The four of them are all from Shaoshi No. 1 Middle School, all of them are from Qianzhen, and they have not seen each other for more than a year, but they have a sense of intimacy that they have not seen for a long time, and they immediately chattered together.

After shouting and asking for warmth, Lu An introduced the little sister Song Jia who got off the car to the two, and then asked, "Are you coming back from the capital?" ”

The male young secretary is still the same as in the past, he doesn't talk much, and prefers to use body language to communicate, such as shaking his head.

Sun Lina is still enthusiastic, "No, the male young man has already had a winter vacation, the child was disobedient in the past two days, went to the county people's hospital for a few days, and was discharged today. ”

Lu An teased the child, and then greeted the three of them, "It's cold outside, let's get in the car first, it just so happens that Qing Shui is in the same direction as you, so you don't have to make a detour." ”

Several of them are classmates, and they have known each other since junior high school, and Lu An, Meng Qingshui and Nan Shaoqing are the people of the year who talked a lot along the way, and it was very lively.

Meng Qingshui asked, "When was the child born?" ”

Sun Lina replied: "On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”

As she spoke, she looked at Lu An: "By the way, if I'm not mistaken, Lu An, you are also on the Mid-Autumn Festival, right?" ”

"yes, but don't think I'm cheap." Lu An said with a smile.

Sun Lina responded happily, "What's the matter, if my son has half of your ability in the future, he is willing to let me, a mother, die now." ”

The male young secretary accosted at this time, "You may not die, what should you do if you die a child?" ”

Sun Lina choked him, "You can find another one." ”

The young man said: "You are dead, how can I live alone, what else can I find." ”

Lu An's eyelids jumped, his mother's love for Eun Xiu.

He immediately mourned for Wu Ying for three seconds, and it is estimated that with the relationship between these two people, even if Sun Lina really has an accident one day, the male young man will probably not look for it again.

Sun Lina and Nan Shaoqing's home is in Xuetang Bay, and the old house of the Meng family is in Jintan, the two villages are next to each other, and they both belong to the Wei family section below the former town.

Strange to say, 80% of the population in this place has the surname Wei, but several people Lu An knows are not surnamed Wei, such as Meng Qingshui, Sun Lina and Nan Shaoqing, and Li Rou, who also belongs to Xuetang Bay.

On the contrary, it was Wei Fangyuan from Shangcun, and his family was separated from the Wei family.

When the car passed through Jintan, Lu An asked Qing Shui and Xiaomei to get out of the car first, and then continued to send a family of three.

After a distance from the Meng family, Sun Lina suddenly mentioned Li Rou, "Lu An, Li Rou came back yesterday, do you want to see him?" ”

A walk-behind tractor came from the opposite side, and Lu An parked the car aside: "Huh? Aren't you guys in the county hospital these days, how do you know? ”

The male young secretary, who didn't talk much, would talk, "My family and Li Rou's house are door to door, just across the road in between, when I called home yesterday, my dad said he saw her." ”

Thinking of Li Rou, Lu An couldn't help but think of her father and the best brother and sister-in-law, and asked curiously: "Is her family back?" ”

Sun Lina sighed, "How can it be, after that incident, her father and her brother have never been seen again, and there are only Li Rou's grandparents at home." ”

The three of them chatted about the Li family, and the car unconsciously arrived at the door of the Li family.

Coincidentally, Li Rou was taking pictures in the sunyard, squatting down to take pictures of a little girl with braids.

Suddenly seeing her best friend, Sun Lina rolled down the window of the car, and shouted excitedly, "Li Rou!" Li Rou! ”

Li Rou turned around and was a little happy when she saw Sun Lina, but when her eyes touched Lu An, she was stunned, and then got up and walked over.

Seeing this, Sun Lina squeezed her eyebrows at the male young lady in a funny way: "Let's go quickly, don't get in the way." ”

The young man looked at Li Rou and then at Lu An, and said as he got out of the car, "Lu An, don't be in a hurry to leave later, it's rare for you to go back and forth to Xuetang Bay, enter the house and sit." ”

"Oh, good."

Lu An was very speechless at the two, and only after watching them leave did he turn his head to look at Li Rou.

"Luan, I didn't expect us to meet again."

After looking at each other for a long time, it was Li Rou who took the lead in breaking the deadlock.

"Hmm." As a sign of politeness, Lu An hummed, unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car.

"You haven't changed." looked at each other again, Li Rou said.

"Hmm." Luan hummed again.

Li Rou asked, "Do you see that I have changed?" ”

Lu An nodded, "It's changed a lot. ”

Li Rou asked, "Where is the big one?" ”

Lu An said truthfully: "Have you become more energetic and beautiful?" ”

"Yes, how does it compare to Meng Qingshui?" Li Roujiong asked attentively.

Lu An smiled, "It's been so long, and your competitive spirit hasn't changed at all." ”

Li Rou said, "Don't interrupt, you haven't answered my question yet." ”

Lu An thought for a while and said, "Qingshui has also been changing. ”

He only said the first half of the sentence.

The underlying meaning of the second half of the sentence is: Qing Shui, who broke away from the youthful appearance of high school, has also ushered in a big change now, and the clear temperament is very attractive.

He believes that the second half of the sentence can be understood with the other party's IQ.

Sure enough, hearing this, Li Rou was silent, and said for a long time: "It seems that in your heart, I am not as good as Qing Shui." ”

Lu An wanted to defend himself, but he swallowed back when the words came to his lips.

Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, Li Rou raised the camera in her hand and said, "Let's take a photo, we haven't taken a photo together." ”

Lu An didn't refuse, and said happily.

Li Rou shouted to Sun Lina, who was secretly watching the play, "Don't look at it, come and take a picture of us." ”

"Huh? Is this a revival of old love? Sun Lina handed the child to her mother-in-law, and crossed the road to the two of them with a smoke.

Without waiting for Lu An to speak, Li Rou had already spoken, "Lina, can't you close your mouth, this place is very close to the Meng family, if you talk nonsense, be careful that Meng Qingshui remembers you." ”

Hearing this, Sun Lina pursed her mouth, "If you think about it, you dare to stab a man in the back for a man, she has long regarded you as an enemy." ”

Lu An couldn't listen anymore, and immediately interrupted the two: "Okay, don't treat me as transparent air, take pictures quickly, it's raining heavily." ”

The rain fell as soon as it was said, and the three of them could finish taking a group photo, and then they crackled and fell to the ground.

Li Rou put away the camera and said to him: "My family is not popular, it's too deserted, so I won't invite you into the house, I'll accompany you to the young man's house to sit down." ”

Lu An looked back at the Li family, and sighed a little, what a beautiful scenery Li Rou's father was in Shao City, with countless money, hundreds of people under him, and two companies, the scene that made people enviable was bleak like this in a blink of an eye.

really responded to that sentence, people don't count the sky.

There are three sisters above the male young lady, and the adults and children in the family are crowded into a room, probably because of the Audi, both the big and the small are full of curiosity about him, and they have asked who he is, making Lu An uncomfortable, and finally he didn't stay long, and left after a cup of tea and chatting.

Li Rou sent it outside, and when he was about to close the car door, he asked, "Lu An, do you want this group photo?" If you want, give me your school address and mail it to you when the time comes.

Or I'll send it to Wei Fangyuan and ask her to pass it on to you. ”

Lu An knew what she meant by this, but as fate would have it, he was not so stingy, and immediately reported the zip address of Nanda Studio to the other party.

After speaking, Lu An offered his farewell: "Then I'll go, I wish you a happy New Year in advance." ”

Li Rou waved her right hand in front of her chest slightly, "Happy New Year!" Good bye! ”

The Audi was gone, making a bend and quickly disappearing on the other side of the mountain.

Sun Lina next to her couldn't help but ask, "Lu An has a BB number, why don't you ask him for it?" ”

Li Rou asked rhetorically: "Why do you want to ask him?" ”

Sun Lina was speechless, and said for a long time: "I thought you would ask for it, if you can't pull off your face, say it early, I'll help you ask for it." ”

Li Rou shook her head.

Sun Lina stared at her and asked confusedly, "You really let go?" ”

Li Rou didn't answer directly, "I don't know, but my mind is not on this right now." ”

Sun Lina gestured, "He's Lu An, you lost interest so quickly?" Or is it not a woman? ”

Li Rou turned around, "If it was high school, I would try hard, but now that a few years have passed, things have long been different." ”

Sun Lina distinguished her face, and finally spread her hands helplessly: "Okay, I was completely kind and was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, I hope you can be so relieved when you hear the news of his marriage and children in the future." ”

When he met Li Rou, it was purely accidental, and Lu An didn't have much turmoil in his heart.

To be honest, Li Rou doesn't have many pictures in his life, but the two scenes are deeply memorable:

One is the other party's best friend Shimizu backstabbing, causing Shimizu to have to transfer schools.

The second is that after the great changes in the Li family, Li Rou abandoned the people around her one by one in order to avoid the pursuit of the enemy, including the first meeting for her birth and death, but finally confessed to him at the train station and kissed him.

In general, although this girl is very beautiful, the deepest impression left on him is not beautiful and moving, but "self".

Or to put it another way, extreme selfishness.

Passing through a low hill, the Audi returned to Xuetangwan Village and finally stopped at the Meng family's old house.

Due to the rain, at this time, the grandparents of the Meng family were moving the sundries drying in the corridor to the hall, and Meng Qingshui and Song Jia were helping by the side.

"Grandpa, grandma, I've come to see you."

It is said that a few sweets are worth money, Lu An has always loved to call people and elders, anyway, he wasted some saliva, and the harvest was indeed full of goodwill, and he was never stingy with this kind of business that did not lose money.

"Eh, Xiao Lu is here." Seeing Lu An, the grandparents were very happy.

Last time, when they told their son and daughter-in-law about their little granddaughter and Lu An staying in the bedroom late at night, Meng Zhenhai and Li Meng didn't react at all, thinking it was normal, and suddenly the grandparents knew in their hearts, this little Lu will be designated as the son-in-law of our Meng family in the future.

Since it is a family, it must be delicious and delicious to entertain with heart, no, a table of dishes at night will eat Lu An to the end.

After dinner, everyone chatted around the carbon fire, originally Meng Qingshui and his grandparents wanted to keep the two of them overnight, but Song Jia was not used to it, saying that she missed her eldest sister and wanted to go back.

No way, Lu An had to follow the little sister's temperament and get up to say goodbye.

Before leaving, he turned his head and asked Qing Shui, "Do you want to come with me?" Stay with us for two days? ”

This is a far-reaching meaning, a yellow flower girl who has not been out of the cabinet will go to the boy's house for a few days, what does this mean?

What it represents is self-evident.

The grandparents glanced at each other, laughed and bleated on the side, both of them were retired from state cadres, and their knowledge and mind were not comparable to ordinary countrymen, and they adopted a non-interference attitude towards the feelings of Lu An and their little granddaughter.

Song Jia's eyes rolled a few times on Qing Shui's body, and she didn't make a sound, but she was shouting in her heart: Sister Fang Yuan, Sister Fang Yuan, you really have no vision, my brother has a lot of women outside who want to sleep with him, but you just can't look down on him, and you are angry.

The man she likes invited her, and Meng Qingshui was naturally very happy, but thinking of the entanglement between him and her sister, her rare happiness was folded in half.

In the end, Lu An figured out her state of mind, and then regardless of it, he stretched out his hand and pulled her out the door, "Grandpa, let's go first, and I'll send the water down in two days." ”

"Okay, it's getting dark, slow down on the road." The grandparents of the Meng family personally sent people to the road.

Just as he was about to drive away, a neighbor next to him suddenly told them that the road to the village was full of ice, and the car could not drive in, so they could only walk.

Lu An was skeptical when he heard this, and his heart had passed for several days, and the ice hadn't melted yet?

But when I thought that Shangcun was located in the Xuefeng Mountains, all the way to the mountains, the altitude was increasing throughout the whole process, and combined with the experience of previous years, my heart instantly beat a drum.

After thinking about it, he ran back to the hall and called his eldest sister Lu Yan, and the result was really like this, the ice on the road had not melted, and the slipper could not get in, so he could only walk.

Lu An put down the receiver and asked Qing Shui, "If you want to walk, you have to walk 7 miles, are you afraid?" ”

Meng Qingshui pursed his lips lightly, "Wait a minute, I'll go find a few flashlights." ”

"Okay." When Lu An said yes, he saw his little sister on the side.

Lu An quietly knocked her on the head, and Song Jia suddenly complained in a low voice: "If you have a daughter-in-law and forget your mother, if you have a woman and forget your sister, you are talking about your big pocket." ”

Lu An knocked her head again: "Why is it called Lu Big Pocket?" What kind of messy nickname did you get? ”

Song Jia covered her head and argued to herself: "This is not what I said, I secretly showed you and your eldest sister the eight characters, and the fortune teller said that you have big pockets and can fit many wives in the future." ”

Lu An was frightened to death when he heard this, and glanced at his grandparents and Qing Shui, who were looking for flashlights in the bedroom, "Can you talk well, can you speak depending on the occasion?" ”

Song Jia blinked her eyes wide, very innocent, "Brother, it's really not me talking nonsense, I didn't believe it at first, but after showing you 3 characters in one breath, I believed it." ”

Lu An asked, "How many sisters-in-law?" ”

Song Jia stretched out a slap and didn't speak.

Luan asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Song Jia said, "I don't know what it means, that's what the fortune teller said, what are the 5?" Or is it a slap that can't be counted? It's up to your brother and your creation. ”

Lu An's eyelids jumped, skipping the stubble, "What do you say about the eldest sister's marriage?" ”

Song Jia put her hands behind her back, "It's almost over, it's either next year or the year after." ”

At this time, the three of them came out of the bedroom, and Lu An nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

The road into the mountain is not easy to walk, the three people have a straw rope tied to the soles of their feet, a flashlight in their left hand, a cane in their right hand, the flat road is good, the three of them don't say that they are flying fast, at least they are stable, but the uphill section is really tiring, every step is carefully stepped, and every big slope has to rest.

And the downhill section is even more dangerous, Lu An fell 2 times, Qing Shui and Xiaomei were at least 5 times or more, the straw rope couldn't stop at all, in a burst of ouching, the three of them were scared, for fear of falling under the road, so that later the three of them connected each other with crutches, and the helper walked.

When I returned to the village, it was already more than eight o'clock, and it was pitch black, although there was electricity this year, but the electricity was expensive, and everyone had no money in their pockets to waste, and they usually lit a kerosene lamp when they were not doing business. Some families are even more simply, directly touching the dark, and kerosene lamps are reluctant.

But everywhere is the same, there is a poor and there is a rich, the commissary at the intersection and the secretary's house are always brightly lit, the former is lit up to collect table fees, and the latter is pure and rich.

The three of them stomped their feet, stomped off the snow foam on their shoes, and then reached out to knock on the door, there was a bright light in the room, and it seemed that the eldest sister Lu Yan had not slept yet.

After two consecutive shots, the house shuttle walked out of the footsteps and asked loudly, "Who?" ”

"Sister, eldest sister, it's me, it's me back!" Before Lu An and Meng Qingshui could speak, the little sister at the back had already jumped up lively.

The door was opened with a few clicks in the house, Lu Yan held a spoon in her left hand, and her right hand was still covered with pigweed and rice bran, and it seemed that she had just fed the pigs in the backyard.

When she saw her younger brothers and sisters outside the door, her face was full of irrepressible joy, and when she saw Meng Qingshui in the middle clearly, she rubbed her right hand on her apron fiercely, and hurriedly pulled Qing Shui into the door, "Qing Shui is here, come in and sit." ”

Seeing this scene, Song Jia's face collapsed instantly, and she slandered a large number of words in her heart that she didn't understand.

Lu Yan burned the charcoal fire and poured hot tea for the three of them, and the aunt and sister-in-law who heard the news also rushed over with flashlights.

Seeing that the eldest nephew brought the girl back, she was still the daughter of the famous Meng family in Qianzhen, but the two aunts were very happy, and hurriedly came over, greeted Meng Qingshui with warmth, and pulled the family short.

Song Jia, who was left out in the cold, was depressed, she usually revolves around her, but she won't turn her today, and she can't help muttering in her heart: If the fortune teller is reliable, sister-in-law Qing Shui, you are just one of the sisters-in-law, let you steal the limelight from me, and when the time comes, I will hold a sister-in-law who is more beautiful than you to make her thighs and get this breath back.
