Before coming in, Chen Fan only thought that there was something to communicate between ordinary acquaintances, but he didn't expect it to be a quarrel.

He doesn't like to snoop on people's privacy, but it's just an alley here, and he can't hide from it.

If you want to dodge, you can only retreat.

Just as he was about to step back a little further, he heard another voice sound.

"You don't look at what your situation is now, you still think it's the lady of the sky who held the moon with the stars back then? Yes? You are just a child of a family that has been divorced, no one wants, and is inferior, not to mention that you are 21 years old and an old girl, which white family do you expect to marry you?

No matter what he Lao Li says, he is also an innocent family background, a serious worker, his father is still the leader of the factory, is it more than enough for you?

Oh, it's good now, he doesn't dislike you, you do, you dislike him, do you have any brains? I kindly came over to tell you about the matchmaker, I've been running for eight times in the past few days, if not ten times, right? It's really all good and bad, and you don't listen to it at all, then you can't get married for the rest of your life and become an old aunt. ”

Hearing this, Chen Fan couldn't help frowning, his face turned pale, and he walked forward quickly, his voice becoming clearer and clearer.

Jiang Tiantian gasped, trying to suppress the anger in her heart, "I respect you for calling you Sister Liu, look at what you do, are you worthy of me calling you sister?" Who doesn't know who he is? Work is lazy and slippery, all day long, if you don't do your job, you will only be idle, you will go out to eat, drink and gamble after paying, and there are two children at home, all of them follow him to learn well and badly, and do nonsense all day long. His wife just died not long ago, did he cry once? It's only been a few days since you've been thinking about finding someone?

Do you dare to say it's for my good? Phew, I see that you just took his dirty money, and wanted to slap his father who was the deputy director, so you pushed me into the fire pit, there are people like you? You don't deserve to be a human being at all! ”

"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about, you stinky girl? No matter how bad Lao Li is, the composition of other people is 10,000 times higher than your family, and if you marry him, it will be Gao Pan......"

Walking here, Chen Fan could already see two figures, he couldn't help it, and said a few "squeaks" to the mouse that was staring at him, and threw a candy over.

The rat jumped up and grabbed it.

Immediately, Chen Fan kicked it lightly and flew it out, drawing an arc.

Then he looked up, jumped lightly, reached out to hook the wall, turned over and jumped on the roof to hide.

In the next second, that Sister Liu suddenly let out a scream, "Ah...... Rats......"

Chen Fan squatted on the roof, only to see a woman in her forties and fifties who still had two braids rushing out of the corner with her teeth and claws, covering her head and running forward, constantly screaming, chased by the mouse, ran out of the alley at the speed of light, and disappeared without a trace.

Looking at the empty alley, Chen Fan snorted coldly twice, silently praying for her that there were not too many viruses on the mouse.

Otherwise, you deserve to die.

Jiang Tiantian leaned against the corner of the wall in a daze, and did not react at this time.

I had a good quarrel just now, and suddenly a mouse fell from the sky and landed on Sister Liu's head, scratching and biting her, so scared that her hands and feet were weak, and she didn't dare to move when she hid in the corner, but she didn't expect that the mouse only chased Sister Liu to bite, and didn't even catch herself?

When Sister Liu's voice disappeared, she gasped for breath and stretched out her head tremblingly, only to see that the front of the alley was empty and there was nothing.

Only then did she squat down against the wall, pricking her face in her arms, holding back her voice, choking and crying.

After a long while, Jiang Tiantian barely suppressed her emotions, took a deep breath, wiped the tears on her face, and stood up with her head down.

Then when he looked up, he saw Chen Fan standing in front of him, looking at him with a smile on his face, and he was still holding a handkerchief in his hand.

"Xiao, Xiaofan?"

Jiang Tiantian looked at him stunned, and didn't react for a while, "You, why are you here?" ”

Chen Fan pursed his lips and smiled slightly, and stretched his hand forward, "Clean, wipe it." ”

Jiang Tiantian hurriedly took the handkerchief in his hand, turned his back to wipe his face clean, and took a few deep breaths before turning around, lowering his head and saying, "You, have you seen everything?" ”

Chen Fan didn't say much, just took out the letter written by Jiang Lili from his bag, and the small cloth bag tied tightly with a rope, and handed it to her together, "I came to the local government on a business trip, and this is what Lilito brought to you." ”

Jiang Tiantian took it with both hands, and when she saw her sister's handwriting on the envelope, she couldn't help but have mixed feelings for a while, and tears almost welled up again.

She quickly took two deep breaths, held back her tears, wiped her eyes as concealed as she could, and then raised her head and smiled reluctantly, "Thank you." ”

Chen Fan pursed his lips and smiled, "You're welcome." ”

Jiang Tiantian lowered her head, and she didn't know what to say for a while. After a while, he muttered, "What did you just hear?" ”

Chen Fan's eyes rolled slightly, "Well, I didn't hear anything, just a little." ”

Jiang Tiantian's face suddenly turned red and white, and he lowered his head and said, "I made you laugh." ”

Chen Fan immediately shook his head, "It's really a big joke,......

Jiang Tiantian was stunned for a moment, raised her head to look at him with a pale face, and was speechless from her throat to her heart, as if she was blocked by something.

Chen Fan pointed to the mouth of the alley again, "I mean that person, he doesn't look in the mirror to see what kind of virtue he looks at, the toad also wants to eat swan meat, it's really a big joke." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Tiantian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his head again.

Chen Fan looked at her and said with a smile, "Don't pay attention to those kind of villains, someone will clean them up sooner or later." ”

After a pause, he said, "I saw you last time I was quite confident, although life was not satisfactory, but I was able to hold my head up and my chest, why did I suddenly become the same as my sister." ”

Jiang Tiantian was stunned, her lips moved slightly, she held the cloth bag and the letter in her left hand, gently stroked the letter with her right hand, and said softly, "Every time she writes to me, she always says in the letter how good her life is, she is well fed, warmly dressed, and has made friends, and she never refuses to tell me the truth." ”

After finishing speaking, after two seconds, he took a deep breath, tried to return to his usual appearance, looked at him and said, "What is my sister usually like?" ”

Chen Fan pursed his lips and shook his head, looked left and right, and said, "This is not a place to talk, why don't you change places, and let me tell you about her?" I mean, if it doesn't delay your work. ”

Jiang Tiantian nodded lightly and said with a smile, "Okay." ”

She glanced back at the mouth of the alley, "There is nothing to delay in my current work, although I am still a salesperson, but they will not hand over important work to me, that is, I do chores in the store department, either sweeping the floor or moving goods, it is the same with me or not." ”

In the past, she would definitely not say that, but the most embarrassing side of herself just now was seen by Chen Fan, so there was nothing to hide.

She turned her face and smiled at Chen Fan, "This place is very close to the riverside, I know that there is a place where no one usually goes, so let's go there." ”

Chen Fan smiled and nodded, "Look at the water and blow the wind, it's exactly what I want." ”

Jiang Tiantian smiled and continued to walk deeper into the alley.

Chen Fan walked side by side with her and looked inside curiously, "Is there a road inside?" ”

She turned her head to look at Chen Fan and said with a smile, "It's not a road, it's just a gap between several houses, just enough to leave." ”

After walking a few steps, Jiang Tiantian glanced at Chen Fan again, and seemed to be a little speechless and stopped.

Chen Fan noticed her expression and couldn't help laughing, "Is there anything you want to ask?" ”

Jiang Tiantian pursed her lips and asked curiously, "Just now, that mouse?" ”

Chen Fan coughed lightly and said casually, "Ah, that woman is really unlucky, the mouse actually fell on her head, but ah, she deserves it, and she does everything she lacks morality, otherwise why would the mouse bite her, right?" ”

A smile appeared in Jiang Tiantian's eyes, the corners of her lips curled slightly, and she didn't ask any more questions.

A few steps ahead, a small alley only about one meter wide suddenly appeared, in Jiang Tiantian's words, it can't be regarded as a road, just a gap left when building a house, and even the dirt floor is a little uneven.

The two of them went in one after the other, and then turned seven or eight corners in a row, Chen Fan couldn't help but say, "Do you usually walk here?" It doesn't seem very safe here. ”

Jiang Tiantian instantly understood what he meant, took out a screwdriver from his trouser pocket, turned around and lifted it, pulled out the bamboo pipe that was covered, and shook it at him, "I'll take this with me, it's okay." ”

Chen Fan looked at the sharpened screwdriver edge, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, "Can this thing work?" ”

Jiang Tiantian put the bamboo pipe back, put the screwdriver into his trouser pocket, and said softly, "If I really meet a bad guy and can't stab him, I will stab myself to death." ”

The smile on Chen Fan's face gradually disappeared, looking at her back, he didn't know what to say.

Jiang Tiantian seemed to be able to feel his gaze, and said as she walked, "Actually, it's fine." Don't look at the fact that there is no one here now, but there are people in front and back, left and right, as long as you shout for help, many people will immediately rush out, and no bad people dare to commit crimes here.

Only in the kind of remote lanes where there are no people nearby, or away from the crowds, is much more likely to run into bad people. It's just that kind of place, I never go to. ”

After a few words and a few more turns, Chen Fan saw the towering Yangtze River embankment outside the alley.

The two climbed up the grassy slope and crossed the embankment, where the surging river came.

It is the season of high water, and although the water level is not particularly high, the flow rate of the river is not slow at all.

The width of the river is more than 3,000 meters, and the width of the river reaches nearly 2,000 meters at this time.

Jiang Tiantian was familiar with the road, and walked along an inconspicuous path on the slope of the outer embankment to a small forest.

She turned to look at Chen Fan, pointed to a piece of wood not far away, and said with a smile, "I dragged this piece of wood here, and put it here as a chair to sit on, you can see the river, and it won't be seen by people outside." If someone comes, the branches and fallen leaves here are the best sentinels, and I can spot them first. ”

Chen Fan looked at his surroundings and couldn't help but smile, "This is your secret garden?" ”

"The Secret Garden?"

Jiang Tiantian's eyes lit up a little, although it was the first time she heard this word, she could immediately understand what Chen Fan meant, and asked curiously, "Is there any allusion?" ”

As he spoke, he took a few steps back, made a gesture of invitation, and invited Chen Fan to sit down, but a self-deprecating smile appeared on his face, "I can only ask you to sit here." ”

Chen Fan sat up and said with a smile, "With such a beautiful scenery to see, this place is much better than other places." ”

Jiang Tiantian smiled and sat at the other end of the broken log.

Chen Fan first answered her question, "The Secret Garden is a fairy tale written by American female writer Frances Hodgson Burnett at the beginning of this century. The story is very long, so I won't tell it now, and I'll tell it to you later when I have the chance. Later, the book became popular all over the world, and people used the secret garden to describe the place that only they knew, used to relax their minds and let themselves fly. ”

Jiang Tiantian held the cloth bag and looked at the Yangtze River from afar, her eyes were a little confused, "Fairy tales?" That's nice! ”

Chen Fan turned his head to look at her and said with a smile, "Do you want to read the letter first?" ”

Jiang Tiantian sat up straight, took the letter and looked at it, and suddenly smiled, "Actually, I don't need to read it, I also know what is written in it, my sister is writing fairy tales, so that my parents and I think she lives in a fairy tale castle." ”

Chen Fan raised his eyebrows, his eyes rolled twice, "Well, if you say that, don't you do the same." ”

After a pause, he smiled again, "Everyone with good intentions is weaving fairy tales for the people around them, hiding sadness and passing happiness." Whether she is really happy or not, she must be happy at the time of writing this letter. ”

Jiang Tiantian turned her head to look at him and showed a bright smile, "You are very good at comforting people." ”

Without waiting for Chen Fan to speak, she put her legs together, put the cloth bag on her thigh, carefully tore open the envelope, and took out the letter to read.

Chen Fan glanced at her, then turned his head to look at the Yangtze River, and thought silently in his heart, Zhang Juemin and Zhang Wenliang have books to read in Xinhua Bookstore, they shouldn't be able to wait for their hearts to get hairy, right?

It didn't take long for Jiang Tiantian to finish reading the letter, folded the stationery, put it in the envelope, turned his face and looked at Chen Fan curiously, his eyes were unprecedented light, ""On the Field of Hope" was written by you? OMG, you're the first real writer I've ever met! ”

Chen Fan turned to look at her, and couldn't help but laugh, "She even told you this?" ”

Jiang Tiantian nodded vigorously, "I said, I also said that you built a house and made your own leather bag and belt." You're really amazing! ”

Chen Fan felt a little dizzy, how could he write about his own things?

It's embarrassing to praise me so much in front of me!

He could only be modest, "Actually, it's okay, it's all gadgets, not worth mentioning." ”

Jiang Tiantian immediately shook her head, "How is this a gadget?" It's obviously a big skill! ”

She held the letter and cloth bag in her arms again, supported her arms on her legs, looked at the river not far away, and said with a longing on her face, "I have tried to write myself, but I always feel that I can't write well, so I admire the great writers who can write good stories the most." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Chen Fan, "But I didn't expect that there was such a person next to me, which is really surprising." ”

Chen Fan pretended to be embarrassed, "If you want to praise me like this again, then I can only jump into the river and hide." ”

Jiang Tiantian smiled and shook her head, "Okay, then I won't talk about it." ”

She then diverted the subject, "Can you tell me about Lili?" ”

"Okay."

Chen Fan propped his elbows on his legs, and came to Jiang Lili he knew one by one without reservation.
