Chapter 357: What's so bad about being a buddy
Although it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the green leaves on the mountain are still green. www.biquge.info I don't know why, but the maple leaves of Shimizu Villa haven't turned red at this time.
Perhaps, those maple leaves have long been forgotten by the seasons, just as the Qingshui Villa in the maple forest has long been forgotten.
This place is basically full of maple trees, so this place is called Momiji Town.
For the people of Momiji Town, this autumn is not much different from every autumn in the past.
The stream in front of the mountain is still clear and clear, and the years have not changed it, but the years have changed people.
The children before have long grown up, but the young people before have long since grown old, and the memories of the past have long been sealed by the dust of the years.
Time is the most unforgiving thing in the world.
Too long has passed, and people have forgotten that in the depths of the green leaves, there was once a famous family that moved the world.
It is only in late autumn, when the green leaves all over the mountains are dyed a fiery red with autumn colors, that the old people will occasionally tell their children and grandchildren about the past.
It's just that people are always forgetful. Twelve years have passed, and the memories of that family have long been drowned in the evening breeze of yesterday's sunset along with the past.
By now, people may not be able to remember the name of that family for a long time.
Only a few old people still vaguely remember that the family was called Qingshui Villa.
The days go on, and so does life.
The summer leisure is long gone, and people are busy again.
Ordinary people, ordinary days, without too much greed, and without too much desire.
For those of them, there is no essential difference between yesterday, today, or tomorrow.
The only difference, though, is that business in the town's taverns is getting quieter than it is in the summer.
With the harvest season approaching, people are already so busy that they don't even have much time for a glass of wine.
However, no matter how busy you are, you still have to drink the wine you should drink. So, although business has faded a little, the customers in the tavern have never been completely cut off.
As a result, the town's tavern was always open.
"Lao Qi Kee" is an old tavern in Momiji Town.
No one noticed when this tavern opened, it seems to have been more than ten years, however, who cares about this. People only know that the liquor in this shop tastes mellow, so business is not bad on weekdays.
I remember that in the past, Lao Qi Ji's wine was only sold in the store, but as the business has become better and better in recent years, the wine in the store is not only sold in the store, but also delivered away.
It's just that what makes Uncle Qi distressed is that every time the guy who sends out to deliver wine always steals wine and drinks, which makes the customers very dissatisfied.
However, fortunately, two months ago, the store recruited a new guy, who is sincere and honest, and works diligently, the key is that the legs and feet are still sharp, and others can not move at most two times a day, but the new guy can run four or five times a day, even so, people are still rushing back early every time.
Moreover, this guy not only gives wine, but also makes wine, which really makes Lao Qi's heart bloom happily.
No, it's just a matter of time today, and the new guy has already rushed back from two trips of wine.
This new guy's surname is Yang, and he is a young man less than thirty years old, as for the specific name, Uncle Qi can't remember it, and vaguely only remembers that the guy himself seems to have said, it should be called Yang Xiaofeng.
Although he had already run twice, Yang Xiaofeng didn't seem to be tired at all, as if he never knew to be tired. This made Lao Qi very incomprehensible, this young man who looked a little bookish was so energetic. It seems that he is full of energy all the time.
No, just after the car stopped, Yang Xiaofeng didn't stop to drink saliva, so he came over again and asked, "Uncle Qi, are you still alive?" It's still early, I'll go for another run"?
Lao Qi smiled all over his face, shook his head and said, "Xiao Yang, that's all there is to do today, you don't have to be busy in the afternoon."
"Ah, it's not alive......", Yang Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief, then took a sip of tea, said hello to Lao Qi, and said, "Uncle Qi, if you don't live, then I'll go back first."
As he spoke, he had already run out.
Lao Qi hurriedly beckoned: "Xiao Yang, what are you in a hurry, you've been busy for almost a day, come on, sit down and rest for a while." I've already opened the altar of the wine you made last month, so let's try it first."
Yang Xiaofeng just shook his head and said, "No, I still have something to do when I go back."
A young man next to him, who was four or five years younger than Yang Xiaofeng, looked at him very suspiciously and asked, "Brother Yang, I see that you seem to be very busy every day, what is the important thing to rush back in such a hurry?"
Without waiting for Yang Xiaofeng to speak, another guy who was about the same age as him next to him immediately laughed and said, "Xiao Xu, don't you know, Xiao Yang is so anxious to go back to see his daughter-in-law."
Immediately, he said: "If my Zhang Wu had such a good-looking daughter-in-law, I would never come out, and I would be tired of her every day." Alas, I don't know when I will be able to marry a daughter-in-law in my life."
Lao Qi immediately smiled and said: "Zhang Wu, you kid is so lazy to do it, I don't think about your daughter-in-law in this life."
Zhang Wu immediately glared at Lao Qi angrily, but he didn't refute it.
Xiao Xu seemed a little surprised, glanced at Yang Xiaofeng, and asked, "Brother Yang, you have a daughter-in-law?"
Yang Xiaofeng smiled but did not answer.
Zhang Wu's eyes lit up, and he said, "Xiao Xu, you don't know, Xiao Yang's daughter-in-law is called a good-looking." I dare to pack a ticket, you kid has never seen such a good-looking girl in his life."
Xiao Xu said disdainfully: "Fifth Brother Zhang, so you have seen Brother Yang and his daughter-in-law"?
"Of course ......", Zhang Wu nodded again and again, his eyebrows fluttered, and said: "A month ago, when Xiao Yang and his daughter-in-law came to the town to purchase goods, Xiao Yang specially brought his daughter-in-law here. At that time, I thought that the fairy had come down to our tavern, but later I found out that the girl was Xiao Yang's daughter-in-law."
"...... month ago", Xiao Xu frowned: "Why haven't I seen it."
Zhang Wu said regretfully: "You just went out that day." If you don't believe this, ask Uncle Qi."
Xiao Xu immediately looked at Lao Qi and said, "Uncle Qi, what Fifth Brother Zhang said is true"?
Lao Qi nodded.
"Alas......", Zhang Wu shook his head and sighed, and said: "You say, this Xiao Yang has been blessed in his life, how can he marry such a good-looking daughter-in-law." Miss me Zhang Wu, it's not too young, why doesn't any girl take a fancy to me, it doesn't make sense."
Listening to his tone, he seemed to be quite dissatisfied with the fact that he had not married a daughter-in-law so far. At the same time, he was quite jealous that Yang Xiaofeng could marry his daughter-in-law.
Xiao Xu pondered for a moment, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he ran over with a smile: "Brother Yang, I know you like to drink, right?"
Yang Xiaofeng smiled and nodded.
Xiao Xu tugged at Yang Xiaofeng's sleeve again and said, "When the salary is paid this month, will I invite you to drink?"
Yang Xiaofeng nodded a little unnaturally and said, "Hmm."
Xiao Xu continued: "Then Brother Yang, look, can you bring your sister-in-law down and let me see it at a convenient time?"
Hearing this, Zhang Wu suddenly came to his senses. Before Yang Xiaofeng could speak, he had already run over with an excited face, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, Xiao Yang, if you can bring down the daughter-in-law who is more beautiful than a fairy in your family and let us meet again, don't talk about Xiao Xu, it's Brother Zhang and me, and I will use all my salary this month to invite you to drink."
Yang Xiaofeng's face was black, and he was really speechless, but he still smiled and said: "Okay, anyway, it's a little lonely to let Ah Xue stay at home alone all day, and I'll take her here to see when I'm free." Maybe we'll open a tavern in town in the future."
"Really......", Zhang Wu patted Yang Xiaofeng on the shoulder and said, "Then I'll be the first to go to your store to be a buddy."
Xiao Xu also hurriedly answered: "And me...... And me, I'll go too".
Yang Xiaofeng nodded and said with a smile: "Let's talk about it then."
For some reason, at this moment, Yang Xiaofeng felt extremely relaxed in his heart.
Before he knew it, he found himself obsessed with this kind of ordinary and simple life.
Isn't this the day he has been longing for in his heart?
This ordinary person's way of life, although mediocre and even cheesy, makes him feel extremely fulfilling.
The past is gone. At this moment, he has long since lost any hatred in his heart, not at all, he has already let go of all hatred.
From then on, he would no longer be troubled by anything.
At the moment, he has only love in his heart. Hold hands with the person you love the most and keep the love of your life.
Love is the greatest, but most ordinary, yet the strongest emotion in the world.
Love has become the whole of his life.
The next moment, Yang Xiaofeng's eyes suddenly looked into the distance, and what caught his eyes was the green maple leaves of the mountains.
Although the green leaves were still crisp at the moment, he knew that it would not be long before those verdant mountains would eventually turn red. Isn't that fiery red color the most vivid representation of life?
It turns out that life has always been tenacious, growing endlessly, and has never withered. What has withered has always been the human heart, the human heart that has been entangled in the grievances of the human world.
Listening to Zhang Wu and Xiao Xu's words, Lao Qi couldn't help but feel a little angry, and scolded with a smile: "You two stinky boys, your brains are full of bad water. I don't do anything serious all day long, my stomach is full of flowers, and I always think about what Xiao Yang's daughter-in-law is doing? If you have the ability, you can find a white and pure girl to marry back home, which is the right thing."
Xiao Xu was embarrassed and didn't say a word.
Zhang Wu's face was much thicker, and he said without blushing and heartbeat: "Uncle Qi, what are you talking about, you have to take out good things and share them with everyone." As the so-called woman is like a flower, it is a beautiful flower, of course, you must often bring it out to bask in the sun, otherwise it will not be moldy after a long time. The good-looking daughter-in-law is always hiding at home what to do, and besides, we don't have any crooked thoughts."
"You dare to ......", Lao Qi scolded, and then couldn't help but smile and said: "But then again, even if you kid really has any crooked thoughts, forgive you for not having that guts." Take a step back and say, even if you have that guts, you don't have that ability."
Zhang Wu said unhappily: "Uncle Qi, don't look down on people."
Lao Qi feigned anger and said: "It's just that you kid is an eyesore, what's the matter...... , uh, Xiao Yang, where are you going"?
Yang Xiaofeng was already leaving, but when he heard this, he had to turn around and smile again: "Uncle Qi, I'll go back first."
As he spoke, he smiled at Zhang Wu and Xiao Xu and nodded. Then he turned around and walked away slowly.
Lao Qi had no choice but to shout from afar: "Xiao Yang, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival." Anyway, there is no work in the store recently, so you don't have to come to work every day these days, so you can spend a good holiday with your daughter-in-law at home, and come back when you are busy in a few days. But don't worry, your salary will not be less than four taels a month."
"Thank you, Uncle Qi, then I won't be here tomorrow."
Watching Yang Xiaofeng walk away, Old Uncle Qi, Xiao Xu, and Zhang Wu suddenly all quieted down.
After a while, Lao Qi smiled and nodded, "It's really good to have such a result now."
At this moment, I only heard a person behind me laugh and asked, "Uncle Qi, what's really good"?
The three of them were startled, and when they turned their heads, they found that Luo Qingyu was already standing behind them at some point.
Zhang Wu was surprised: "Valley Master, why are you here?"
Luo Qingyu sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and said with a faint smile: "Of course I came to see my hard-working sister and brother-in-law, how is it, the situation is okay?"
Lao Qi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the valley master, everything is fine."
"Well......", Luo Qingyu nodded and said, "That's good." It's been a hard time for you all these years, and by the way, the other brothers are all right"?
Lao Qi smiled: "Thank you for your concern, the brothers are very good."
Luo Qingyu took a sip of tea and said, "Now that the situation has finally settled down, do you want to go back?"
The three of them were stunned, silent for a moment, and then glanced at each other, Lao Qi said with red eyes: "After so many years, my roots have long been rooted here, where are I going back"?
"What about Xiao Zhang and Xiao Xu"?
Zhang Wu shook his head and said, "We won't go back either." In life, it is long and short, so why not be a guy running in a tavern."
"Yes, ......", Xiao Xu also shook his head and said, "Don't go back, don't go back."
Luo Qingyu's hand holding the teacup was fixed in mid-air, and after staring at the three of them for a long time, he slowly put down the teacup in his hand and said lightly: "That's good."
With that, he also got up and walked out slowly.
Looking up, it was dusk.
