It took half an hour to ride a bicycle before Jiang Yueyuan came to the junction of urban and rural areas.

From the intersection, it seems to be a long journey.

Thinking of his purpose, Jiang Yueyuan resigned herself to pedaling the bicycle forward.

The closer you get to your destination, the more terraced rice fields come into view, and when the fields are busy, not only young men and women, but also old people and children.

Soon after the rain, the trail gradually became muddy, and the bicycle could not be ridden here.

Jiang Yueyuan pushed the bicycle forward, and her eyes were attracted by the surrounding scene, there were water buffaloes dragging plows to plough the land, as well as the hard-working people, and many young children, who were cherished by their families, all wearing thin patched shoulders, running happily in the terraced fields, and the sound of immature children resounded through the fields.

Walked all the way to the head of the field, and the three divergent paths were in sight, just when Jiang Yueyuan decided to find someone to ask for directions.

A woman with a dark blue cloth around her head walked up with a blackened white sweat towel around her neck.

The woman looked at Jiang Yueyuan, and her eyes lingered on the Phoenix bicycle beside her.

In these years, although bicycles are not a rare thing in the market, they are still rare in the countryside, not to mention that this Phoenix brand may cost 200 yuan, even if it is a working family, it has to be saved for a year or two, and it is not seen in the village at all.

"Girl, are you looking for someone from town?"

The woman's voice was so loud that it attracted the eyes of those who were close to her, and she looked away again when she saw that nothing special had happened.

Jiang Yueyuan nodded, "Well, please ask this lady, how to leave Xie Chengen's house?"

"Xie Chengen?" The woman looked Jiang Yueyuan up and down in surprise, and then asked curiously, "Girl, what are you looking for him?"

Jiang Yueyuan, "I am his classmate, and the teacher arranged for us to do something together, so I want to discuss it with him, but I can't find a way." ”

The woman hesitated for a moment and lowered her originally loud voice, "Girl, you don't know from the town, that kid is not normal, don't have anything to do with him if you're fine." ”

Xu saw that Jiang Yueyuan was a little dazed, and the woman leaned closer and said: "This kid has a strange temper, and he looks as thin as a bamboo pole, but even the men in the village are not his opponents when it comes to fighting. ”

Jiang Yueyuan recalled the events of Tuesday and nodded noncommittally.

Xie Chengen was indeed ruthless, if she hadn't pulled people away at that time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Quickly retracting her thoughts, she smiled politely: "Thank you, aunt, for your kindness, it's just that the things our teacher explained are more important, and I have to discuss it with him." ”

The eldest lady flashed hesitation on her face, Jiang Yueyuan saw this, and didn't want to waste any more time, so she took out a delicate mouth gold bag from her pocket and took out a few white rabbit toffee.

Jiang Yueyuan pulled the palm of the eldest mother's hand and put the candy over, "I appreciate your kindness, auntie, but please tell me the address of his house, I will go home after I finish the matter, and the family will be anxious if it is delayed like this." ”

Take people with short hands and eat people with soft mouths. The eldest lady took the white rabbit toffee, and was overjoyed, ready to take it back to the dog and eggs for them to eat.

got this cheap, she couldn't say anything, so she could only smile and say: "You girl is really polite, I accepted your things, and my aunt is very embarrassed, why don't I take you there?"

Jiang Yueyuan hurriedly waved her hand, her eyes fell on the terraced fields behind the eldest mother, "Now is the time to be busy, eldest lady, just show me the way, don't dare to delay your work." ”

Jiang Yueyuan's mouth is sweet, and she is a big lady in one bite, coaxing people to squint and be happy.

After the eldest lady pointed out a way to Jiang Yueyuan, she didn't forget to advise, "Auntie still has to give you a reminder, that kid is very yin, if he gets angry, remember to run away, you know?"

Jiang Yueyuan chuckled and nodded, she knew that Xie Chengen had a bad temper, and she also knew how to run.

But now it's a plan to curry favor with the future boss, and she can't be too cowardly.

Following the path pointed out by the eldest lady, she found a small wooden house built against the rock, an L-shaped building at that time, with two gates, and a small courtyard surrounded by bamboo poles at the door, and there was nothing in the small courtyard, but it was clean and tidy.

Parking her bicycle outside the yard, she pushed open the dispensable bamboo pole fence in the small yard and walked in, raising her hand and knocking twice on the gate of the main entrance.

A little emaciated boy poked his little head out of the crack in the door and looked at the beautiful sister who suddenly appeared in front of him, "Who are you?"

Hearing his milky question, Jiang Yueyuan got straight to the point: "I'm your brother's classmate, is your brother at home?"

The little boy's eyes lit up, in his impression, no one had ever come to find his brother, let alone his brother's classmates, he opened the door unguardedly, grinning, "Brother went to the back mountain to dig wild vegetables, and he will come back soon, sister, don't you come in first?"

Jiang Yueyuan nodded and said okay, raised her heel and walked inside, a damp and moldy smell hit, and she couldn't hold back so as not to reach out and cover her mouth and nose.

There was hardly any furniture in the room, except for a large kang built with a rotating head, an old wooden table, and two benches.

Jiang Yueyuan was still secretly sighing, the little boy suddenly coughed, she hurriedly squatted down, only to see that his pale little face was flushed with a trace of bitter yellow, the two thin eyebrows were pulled together, and the lips were even more dry and white.

Thinking that Xie Chengen's younger brother was sick, she hurriedly picked up the person and walked into the room, "Can't you blow the wind?"

Xie Chengan sat on the edge of the kang and waited for the coughing to stop before smiling and said, "Sister, don't worry, it's okay, just wait until the cough is over." ”

Feeling a little surprised by his well-behavedness, Jiang Yueyuan smiled slightly, grabbed a few white rabbit toffees from them and handed them over.

"What's your name?"

According to the plot of the original book, on the day of Xie Chengen's final exam, the little boy died because he had a high fever and was not treated in time.

And the reason for the high fever is caused by the cold wind and cold rain blowing in through the broken window.

This is also the reason why Xie Chengen will work as if he will die in the future.

Jiang Yueyuan's gaze fell on the paper window on the right that was pasted with newspapers, what kind of use could the newspapers be used for? As long as it rains heavily, it can be drenched to pieces.

Looking at the roof again, through the beams is the roof of the roof with tiles, and in the middle of the day, a few rays of sunlight are projected through which gap.

In this kind of house, it's okay to say that it's windy, but if it rains, it's simply the rhythm of heavy rain outside and light rain inside.

Coupled with the lack of ventilation, it's no wonder that there is a wet and musty smell, all in all, this house sucks.
