In the evening, the second master and the band leader, Guoman, Brother Bing, and Brother Huo all had dinner at Shanchun's house. Everyone was drinking and talking.

"Erwa, how is the work?" The second master asked.

"It's okay." Yamatsumi replied.

"Do you look like an official?" Brother Huo joked.

"It's not difficult to learn by doing, it's all done by people. It's like when you use charcoal to make gunpowder packets and bomb other people's dogs to eat meat, isn't it like no one teaches you? Shan Tsubaki looked at Brother Huo and saluted.

"Hehe, I'm doing barbarian work, you're an official." Brother Huo smiled and took a sip of the hardcover red plum that Shanchun brought back.

"This smoke is good." Brother Bing said.

"What a fart, it's not as strong as the smoke of the leaves leached out of my sheep's urine." The bandleader said loudly.

"Of course, that smell of urine is to your taste." Brother Huo made fun of the band leader.

"Bing, I heard you're going out to work?" The second master asked the mountain soldiers.

"Yes, second master, it's not a good idea to stay in this countryside. To trap the dead. The mountain soldier said.

"The land is settled, don't everyone have food to eat?" Yamatsumi asked.

"I have received a lot of food, and I have enough to eat. Seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, and labor are also high for production, and they can't actually earn a few dollars, and in recent years, each household has purchased farm tools for production, ploughing cattle, etc., as well as windmills and buckets for harvesting grain, cabinets and warehouses for storing grain, and the production team has raised funds for high-voltage electricity, etc., which is really sad. Brother Bing said.

"Oh, it's hard to get out, don't just hear others say that there is gold everywhere outside, it's actually hard." The second master pondered.

"Don't be afraid, don't go and break in, where do you know what it is. Besides, it's better to see the world. "The band is a natural optimist.

"Alas, I think that the people should suffer from poverty. There is a word engraved on his head. Brother Huo said.

"Second master, when you were liberated, how was the household registration divided?" Yamatsumi asked.

"At that time, there was no division, it seems that it was only five or eight years before the rural household registration and urban households began to be divided, and the rural and urban people were not allowed to move casually. That's it, we're rural people. The second master recalled.

"That's true. I always thought that rural people were born to stay in the countryside, but it turned out that this was not the case. It's just a division of household registration that imprisons us, and we can only stay in the farmer's door. Yamatsumi sighed.

"Isn't it innate? Is it policy? Brother Bing asked.

"What the policy stipulates is innate." Brother Huo doesn't understand much.

"It's different. Before the division between rural and urban hukou, we were just people who lived in the countryside and made a living from agricultural production, not born peasants, and could go to the city to do other things that suited us for a living, and we didn't have to only live from agricultural production. However, after the hukou was divided into the rural population and the urban hukou, we were tied to this rural area, and we could no longer work in the city to earn a living. Now that it's a little more open, you can go to the city to work, but your hukou is always in the countryside, and you're still in the farm, and you're still a farmer. Yamatsumi explained.

"That's right." The second master understood.

"Is this peasant word really going to press us for the rest of our lives?" Brother Bing muttered to himself.

No one knows about this question. Everyone smoked and drank silently, silently.

"Whatever, Brother Bing, go out and break boldly, anyway, now there is such a thing as going to the city to work, and there is also this matter, this political trial in Tanyan Village has not passed that Hu Renchang has already gone out a few days ago and arrived in Guangzhou. Where are you going? After a while, Yamatsuki asked.

"I have an old watch that went to Shenzhen, and I plan to go to his place to have a look." The mountain soldier said.

"Go ahead, settle down at home." The second master admonished.

"My parents can still take care of themselves now, I give the land to my brother, I don't want their food, I go out." The mountain soldier said.

"That's good, at least one person's rations are saved, you can turn it into money, you go out, see it, if it's good, send more young people in the team to go out, the others don't know, the rations are at least saved." Even if you can't make a name for yourself when you go out, you're not afraid, just come back and continue to repair the earth with my bandmaster. The band leader said.

"Brother Shanbing, I'm in the Huanglian Township Government, and you're going to write to me when you go." Yamatsumi wanted to know what was going on after the mountain soldiers went out.

"Second master, can you do anything about eating the Qingming Meeting?" Brother Huo asked the second master.

"This should not be allowed at present, but in private, there are some families in various places who are holding Qingming meetings. I don't know if I can let go of the next step. The second master said.

"Our Zhang family has not held a meeting, and many people have proposed to do it, so I think it will be better to hold one next year." Brother Huo said.

"We'll see next year." The second master did not express his position.

That night, Shan Tsubaki tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep, this agricultural word is delineated by policy, artificial, can it be changed? Can you jump out of the farm gate? Can rural people get out? City, is there a place for us?

On the day of returning to his hometown on vacation, Shanchun got up early in the morning, drove twelve miles, and came to Guanyin Township, ready to take the shuttle bus from Tiancheng to Nanjin Town.

There are two shuttle buses from Tiancheng to Nanjin every day, so there is one bus from Tiancheng to Nanjin in the morning and one in the afternoon. The morning bus to Guanyin Township is about half past eight, but many times the bus will not come for various reasons. As for the reason, no one has explained and cannot be explained. The road is broken, the car is broken, there are often problems, and there is no phone to notify, who will explain to you.

Today, this is the case with Yamatsuki. When Yamatsumi arrived at Kannon Station, it was a little past eight o'clock, and he asked a few people who were already waiting there, saying that the car had not yet passed, and his heart was a lot more steady. Because sometimes the driver pulls the wind, it may also be a minute or two early to drive over.

Yamatsuki got the accurate news that the car hadn't passed yet, and it should still be on the way here, so he settled down and waited. It is said that it is a station, it is better to say that it is a roadside waiting point, in fact, it is not even a waiting point, that is, on the side of the highway outside the Guanyin field, the car often stops and gets on and off people, and people are also used to waiting and getting on and off the bus here, in fact, there is nothing, and even the eaves on the side of the road are not enough for people to shelter from the wind and rain.

Yama Tsubaki stood on the chaotic pile of stones on the side of the road, his eyes looking in the direction of Sweet City in front of him, hoping that the car would arrive on time.

But the sky was not beautiful, and suddenly there were clouds, a gust of wind blew, and a few rays of rain were scattered. The shiny rain was very sparse, and Shan Tsubaki was not afraid of getting his clothes wet, but felt a little comfortable, but he just moved the army green satchel he was carrying cross-body to his chest and held it with both hands. Because the bag contained Shan Tsubaki, he borrowed "Lin Hai Snow Plain" from his hometown Brother Shanmao.

This book was banned a few years ago and is not allowed to be read. Shanchun listened to the story in "Lin Hai Xueyuan" when Brother Shanmao blew the Three Kingdoms, and he was very fascinated, and he always wanted to take a look at this book, but Brother Shanmao just didn't borrow it, saying that he was afraid that Shanchun would take it out and see it and cause trouble. So, after borrowing this book, Yamatsumi kept him as a treasure.

"Hey, has the shuttle passed?" I was staring in the rain when I heard a pleasant inquiry.

As soon as Shan Tsubaki turned around, he saw a beautiful girl who was dressed differently from the countryside village, playing a big flower umbrella, shaking a long hair with slightly curly waves, flashing a pair of clear and bright eyes, showing a few snow-white millet teeth, looking at Shan Tsubaki there.

Shan Tsubaki wasn't sure if the girl was asking herself, and besides, Shan Tsubaki didn't dare to answer abruptly with such a girl who made the countrymen look up to see her, so she didn't speak, but just looked back, but she didn't know if it was because she was afraid of the rain or for some other reason, the people waiting for the train just now were gone, and only Shan Tsubaki was still standing there.

"Has the shuttle passed?" The girl looked at the Shanghai women's watch on her wrist, and when she saw that the time had passed half past eight, she asked again.

"No, I haven't seen a car here." Shan Tsubaki has determined that the girl is asking herself, and she can only ask herself, otherwise, she is asking about the wind and rain.

The road was muddy, with no pedestrians and no vehicles. There were two people standing in the rain. The rain seems to have increased again, and Shan Tsubaki wants to avoid the rain, but he looks at the eaves behind him, and he really can't avoid the rain, if he stands under the eaves, the eaves are too short, maybe the rain splashed by the droplets falling from the eaves will wet his pants faster. I couldn't help it, I just shrunk back and hugged the satchel on my chest more tightly.

Shan Tsubaki didn't pay attention, at this time, the girl saw Shan Tsubaki's appearance, smiled, maybe a sentence came out of her heart, a fool.

Then the girl took a few steps and lifted the umbrella to cover the rain above the mountain's head.

"Ahh Yamatsuki looked up and saw the umbrella, then turned his head to look at the girl, smiled awkwardly, and didn't speak.

"Hey, I'll help you cover the rain, you don't have a word of thanks?" The girl smiled.

"Oh, thank you." Yamatsumi said mechanically.

"Oh, what's in the bag? Such a heavy rain doesn't even have to cover your head, and you still hold it so tightly? The girl was very observant.

"Oh, no baby, it's a book." Yamatsuki is not used to talking to strange girls, and her heart is flustered.

"Oh, what book? Such an official baby? The girl thought to herself, this is a nerd.

"Lin Hai Xueyuan, novel." Shan Tsubaki said the title of the book, and there was a hint of pride, knowing that it was rare to have such a book in this year.

"Oh, good book." The girl said that listening to her tone, she knew the book very well.

"Have you read this book?" Shan Tsubaki was a little surprised, can this girl read this book?

"Of course I did. Someone summed up this book into a couplet, and two sentences summarize the whole book. The girl said, and Shanchun thought to herself, this girl has really read this book.

"Which two sentences?" Yamatsumi heard that he was interested in this, because Yamatsumi loved books, literature, and of course, couplets.

"One charge, two grenades; Attack the Jiapigou and forcibly occupy the Nipple Mountain. The horizontal batch is the title of the book, Lin Hai Xueyuan. The girl blushed a little when she said this, and her voice was a little small.

Shanchun also heard Brother Shanmao say these two sentences when he played "Lin Hai Snow Field". Of course, Brother Shanmao also said something badly, there are two understandings of this statement, one is a summary of the book above board, and the other is dark and dirty and unhealthy and shameless. This may also be the reason for the girl's blush.

"That's a subtle one." Shan Tsubaki said that the two sentences really summarized the main story of "Lin Hai Snow Plain". In the face of a beautiful girl, of course, Yamatsuki can't understand the meaning of the words that come out of her mouth to the shamelessness that Yama Mao said.

"You like to read?" The girl smiled in her heart, this person is interesting, I am afraid that she also thought of another meaning in the literal meaning of this couplet, but she can say this seriously.

"I like it, just watch it when you're fine." Yamatsumi coped with the answer.

"Hey, it's so windy." The girl said, and then the umbrella floated away, as if it were about to fall.

It's a little windy, but it's not big, Shan Chun looked at the sky, then at the trees in the field, and then at the girl's face, a little breeze, occasionally blowing.

"This is really a nerd, I don't understand, isn't this girl sore or tired holding her umbrella?" The girl muttered in her heart, a sentence is windy, shouldn't you take the umbrella over?

Yamatsumi didn't think about it that much, and he didn't react at all.

"Hey, can you help me with my umbrella?" The girl had no choice, so she had to look at Shan Chun to pick out the words, it was still the kind of words that were very polite and didn't count the people.

Obviously, I helped you with the umbrella to cover the rain, but I begged you to help me lay the umbrella, which is too unreasonable in this world.

As soon as these words came out, Yamatsumi's face turned red, the kind that was so red that it rose. Then, silently, he took the umbrella from the girl's hand.

The girl looked at the embarrassment of the mountain tree, and was very happy, this baby is too tender, student.

"I'm afraid the car won't be able to come." The girl looked at her watch again, and it was already ten past nine.

"I guess I can't come." Shan Tsubaki had already guessed in his heart, but he didn't want to believe this fact, because the car didn't come, and the twenty-mile road to Nanjin had to brave the rain and step on the muddy water all the way to measure it with his feet.

"What can I do?" The girl looked at the muddy water in the middle of the road, and then at the rain in the sky, as if asking about the air, and as if asking herself, but it should be asking about the mountains.

"There are two ways, one is not to go, and the other is to count step by step, how many steps are in these twenty miles." Shan Tsubaki looked at the girl, and actually humored.

"Aren't you leaving?" The girl asked Tsubaki.

"I'm leaving, I'm going back to work." Shan Tsubaki looks at the sky, and it is not necessary to rush back to work, but if you don't go to Nanjin, it is also a twelve-mile road to your home. So I can only go to Nanjin.

"Oh, I have to go, I have to go back to work." The girl looked at the mountain tree, such a rainy day, such a muddy road, it would be good to have someone to walk with you.

Helplessly, the two did not discuss it again, nor did they hesitate, they looked back at the road in the direction of Tiancheng step by step, and walked towards Nanjin.

The road to Nanjin can follow the road, or you can take a small road from Guanyin, and then merge into the highway, so that you have to walk four or five miles less. For the sake of the four or five miles that he had to walk, Shan Tsubaki walked on the path, and the girl followed behind.

The small road is actually the main road leading to Nanjin in the past, paved with stone slabs, so that it does not sink into the foot, but the rain is wet and a little slippery. In particular, it is easy to fall when stepping on the crooked stone slabs, so you have to walk extra carefully.

Because the road was not wide, out of the countryside, Shan Tsubaki handed the umbrella to the girl, and he planned to walk quickly in front of him in the rain. Because he is not accustomed to playing with a girl on this short road, he is not used to walking with a girl so close and so intimately.

"Hey, don't patronize you." The girl saw Shan Tsubaki's thoughts, and was amused in her heart, what a little child.

At the same time, I was thinking that the rain would wet my clothes, and it was not good to be sick.

Hearing the girl's shout, Shanchun stood down and waited for the girl to approach.

"This, take it." The girl handed the umbrella and a small bag she was carrying to Tsubaki, not polite at all, regardless of Tsubaki's reaction.

Shan Tsubaki took it mechanically, put the bag on his body, and held the umbrella high to cover the girl as much as possible. The two walked silently.

"Hey, let's get closer, this umbrella can't cover it so wide, and it'll get wet." The girl saw that Shanchun deliberately kept a distance from herself, and felt that this person was so innocent.

After walking for a while, I encountered water in the ground and brought some mud on the road. The road is too slippery to walk. The girl instinctively grabbed Tsubaki's hand, and Tsubaki also held the girl's hand hard, so that it would be much safer to walk, and the umbrella could better play the role of sheltering from the rain.

It's just that for the first time in her life, Shanchun held the hand of a big girl, feeling warm, soft, crispy, her heart was beating faster, and she was at a loss.

The girl's hand was held by Yamatsuki, and she said very strongly, it turned out that the man's hand was so strong? Looking at Shan Tsubaki's cramped and uneasy look, the girl felt a little comfortable in her heart.

"Where do you work?" Speechless all the way, the girl felt too dull, so she asked.

"Huanglian Township." Shan Tsubaki was asked by the teacher in the classroom like a primary school student, and the answer was very mechanical and wooden.

"Huanglian Township is wide." The girl smiled, dissatisfied with Tsubaki's simple answer.

"Oh, the township government." Yama Tsubaki knew that the girl wanted to ask about the specific work unit.

"Oh, so he was an official?" I thought you were a student. The girl blinked and looked at the mountain tree earnestly. There is no sense of cadres at all from the face of the mountain tree, only the strong smell of student babies.

"What kind of official, just flat-headed." Yamatsumi said.

"But in the hearts of our little people, all the officials in the township government are officials." The girl spoke of a common perception.

"What about you, you're not from Guanyin, are you?" Shan Chun asked, intuitively, Shan Chun felt that the girl was not from this small village.
