Two days later, a fresh picture appeared in the Zhangshuya Brigade.

Since Xiao Zhengping was the first to ride back a bicycle, and then became a celebrity in the team, and even drove back a small four-wheeler, people gradually stopped paying attention to Xiao Zhengping, and it seemed that it was reasonable for him to do something big.

But people never thought that one day Xiao Zhengping would bring back a brightly dressed, youthful and beautiful girl.

Along with the girl up the mountain, there was also a tall, strong, handsome man.

When Xiao Zhengping passed by with these two people, people looked at the three people as if they had seen something strange. When they walked by, people would get together and mumble a few words, and from time to time stretched out their fingers to point at Xiao Zhengping.

In fact, not only the people in the team were surprised, Xiao Zhengping was also a little panicked, he originally thought that there were two women, but when he picked up the car, he saw a man and a woman.

Because Chen Yan drove the mule cart out to collect fungus today, Xiao Zhengping could only ride a bicycle to pick up the car.

When they met, Xu Xiaohui introduced that the man's name was He Qiang and he was her classmate, but He Qiang said that he was her boyfriend.

Seeing that Xu Xiaohui didn't deny it in the end, Xiao Zhengping thought that these two were a couple.

Along the way, Xiao Zhengping kept talking to the two, and at the same time thinking about whether his arrangement was suitable.

If these two people are really a couple, then there is no problem with arranging them in one room, but if Xu Xiaohui does not agree to live in one room, how should He Qiang arrange it?

Xiao Zhengping first took the two to his house, and as soon as he put down his luggage, Xu Xiaohui went straight to the livestock shed next to the yard.

"Oh, your family still has cows, that's cute. Ah, did you grow these vegetables? That's good-looking! Xu Xiaohui was like a child entering a dollhouse, startled.

At this time, Xiao Xiuye was at the uncle's house, and in order to welcome these two guests, Xiao Xiuye decided to show her hand.

Xiuye was not there, so he had to come by himself to bring tea and water, Xiao Zhengping opened the door and poured a cup of tea for each of them.

He Qiang took the tea and put it on the ground casually, he didn't seem to be very satisfied with the environment here, "Two cows and a few cucumbers, are you so excited?" ”

Xu Xiaohui took a sip of the teacup, her face full of enjoyment, "Well, it's delicious, and it tastes sweet, this tea is made by yourself, right?" ”

Xiao Zhengping is a little funny, where can the tea that the people in the mountains drink come from if they don't make it themselves? If you can't even eat enough, do you still spend money to buy tea to drink?

"Yes, what you do yourself is to pick it up from the mountains and fry it, knead it, if you like it, take some back with you when you leave."

"Okay, then you're welcome!"

He Qiang got up at this time and walked around the courtyard, then pushed open the door and looked inside, then frowned and asked, "Are you going to let us live here?" ”

Xiao Zhengping hurriedly explained, "No, there are other arrangements for the place to live, I just brought you two over to rest." Mr. Xu, are you resting? Why don't we keep going? ”

Xu Xiaohui shook her head, "What's the hurry, it's all on the mountain, it's still a while?" This tea is so delicious, I don't want to waste it. ”

Xiao Zhengping smiled helplessly and had to sit down again.

Xu Xiaohui dangled in the yard with a teacup for a while, then walked out of the yard and walked on the ridge, and she didn't come back until all the tea in the cup was drunk.

Contemporary people, unless they are children, are generally no strangers to the countryside, and the gap between urban and rural areas is not particularly large, and most of the people in the countryside can be seen in the city. So Xiao Zhengping immediately judged from Xu Xiaohui's actions that this female student was either a lady or a lack of strings in her head.

In contrast, He Qiang's reaction was the right one — even if he was a college student, he should be familiar with what was going on in the countryside.

When they arrived at the uncle's house, the whole family had been waiting for a long time, including Dai Xuemei's father and daughter. Jia Hongyue is an acquaintance, and after greeting Xu Xiaohui, she introduced the family one by one.

After greetings and greetings, Uncle Xiao Kunshui beckoned everyone to the table, and the table was already full of more than ten dishes of fragrant dishes.

At the dinner table, He Qiang's action caused Xu Xiaohui's displeasure.

Aunt Xiao Zhengping gave each person a pair of dishes and chopsticks, and Xiao Xiuye followed behind her to add food to everyone. Who knew that He Qiang did not add rice first after taking over the dishes and chopsticks of Xu Xiaohui and the others, but asked the aunt where the kettle was.

The aunt was stunned by the question, Xiao Zhengping hurriedly brought a boiling kettle and handed it to He Qiang.

Who knew that He Qiang actually opened the kettle in front of everyone, poured half a bowl of water into each of his and Xu Xiaohui's bowls, and then put his chopsticks into the bowl and shook the bowl, shook the bowl again, and finally poured the finished boiling water on the ground.

To be honest, Xiao Zhengping can understand He Qiang's actions, although the other family members are very surprised, they can't say anything, after all, this is not too much.

But Xu Xiaohui's next move was even more surprising, she saw He Qiang finish the two bowls, and after understanding the meaning, she quickly took another piece of chopsticks from Aunt Xiao Zhengping's hand, and then beckoned Xiuye to come over to add rice.

He Qiang finished washing the dishes and chopsticks here, and was about to hand them to Xu Xiaohui, but when he raised his eyes, Xu Xiaohui had already put another bowl to his mouth, and was rushing rice into his mouth at the moment.

Xu Xiaohui saw He Qiang handing the bowl to her, revealing an expression of sudden realization, "Are you here for me?" I thought you were going to use two bowls! Oh, you see I have it all, you can keep it for yourself! ”

He Qiang's face suddenly felt embarrassed, and he stood in place with the bowl for a long time, and finally it was Xiuye who added food to him, which eased the embarrassing atmosphere.

However, when eating, Xiao Zhengping found something wrong again - Xu Xiaohui pretended to be very aggressive before eating, but in fact she was very restrained when eating, Xiao Zhengping found that her chopsticks never went in the direction of big fish and meat, but picked beans, vegetables and mushrooms to eat, and ate with relish.

On the other hand, He Qiang is different, he picks and chooses before eating, but when he goes to the dinner table, the food looks like Zhang Gouzi, and he also picks fat meat to eat, and he doesn't touch those green vegetables or anything.

Looking at the difference in the words and deeds of these two people, Xiao Zhengping couldn't help but worry - can such two people sleep in the same bed?

Sure enough, after dinner, He Qiang asked Xiao Zhengping if he had a bathroom, saying that he had been driving for a day and wanted to take a shower and rest early.

In the countryside of this era, the stove room is multi-functional, and in cold weather, the stove room is the bathroom - the pot that has been fried is brushed several times to boil a pot of hot water, and a foot basin can be scooped out of the hot water to take a bath. On hot days, the men scooped water into the barrels and said that the backyard would be finished with two flushes, while the women still washed in the stove.

So when He Qiang asked about the bathroom, Xiao Zhengping's face was a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Xu Xiaohui seemed to have done her homework in advance, pointed to the wooden barrel next to the stove and said, "What bathroom do you need for a big man, why don't you scoop some water and find a place where no one is around?" ”

After Xu Xiaohui laid the groundwork, Xiao Zhengping's embarrassment immediately subsided a lot, so he hurriedly explained, "That~ I'm sorry, we don't build a bathroom here." Wait a minute, boil hot water for you, and make do with it in the stove room first. ”

He Qiang was obviously a little displeased, and at this time Xu Xiaohui stood up again, "He Qiang, I told you a long time ago that life in the countryside is not as comfortable as your home, I asked you not to come, you have to come." Since you're here, don't be suspicious of this, just follow the customs. ”

He Qiang had nothing to say, and finally carried a bucket of water to the backyard with the help of Xiao Zhengping.
