The president has lovesickness

For a small rural family, it doesn't matter whether the restaurant is a restaurant or not, but the atmosphere on the table is subtle enough.

Gu Bin's attitude towards Jin Yiyao was very friendly, and Jin Yiyao's reaction was neither cold nor cold.

Gu Bin asked Gu Xiaoqing to have a better attitude towards Jin Yiyao, but Gu Xiaoqing turned a blind eye to it and didn't hear it, and instead brought food for her daughter.

Gu Xiaoqing didn't eat it by herself because she really didn't like it. When she picked up food for Nan Nan, she put one hand on her shoulder slightly, as if telling Jin Yiyao not to even think about certain things.

The continuous drizzle at noon soon stopped, but the weather forecast called for heavy snow in a few days.

Although there is a gas stove at home, they often have to go to the town to fill the gas. It is not easy to come and go in winter, so generally every household in Zhubai Village still uses an earthen stove and firewood.

Lin Zihua couldn't go to the ground for several days, Gu Xiaoshang was working in R City, and Gu Bin was the only one at home. He missed the opportunity to collect firewood at the best time, so the family didn't have enough spare firewood for the winter, so he had to go up the mountain .

When Gu Bin was young, he was addicted to alcohol, and when he was drunk, he beat and scolded their mother and daughter frequently.Now that she is getting older, Gu Xiaoqing really annoys him, wishing she could stay away!But he can't be allowed to do this job as an old man. After all, the family is still reunited on the surface, and her father will be with her mother for the rest of her life.

Gu Xiaoqing decided to go up the mountain to collect firewood by herself, leaving Nan Nan at home with Lin Zihua.She didn't go alone, Gu Xiaoshang, who was more familiar with the terrain, was with her.

Of course, Jin Yiyao followed without saying a word.

"You can't go up the mountain wearing this." Gu Xiaoshang and Jin Yiyao said, "It's raining just now, and the road on the mountain is slippery, so you can't go up with leather shoes. Besides, your suit is so thin and you can easily catch a cold."

People in the city are not in good health, and some people catch a cold when the mountain wind blows.

Jin Yiyao said, "Give me a change of clothes."

"My clothes don't suit you..."

Before Gu Xiaoshang could finish speaking, Gu Xiaoqing said: "Get him Dad's clothes." It's okay to go together, although it may be troublesome, but she is more afraid that this guy will steal Nannan and run back to R City while she is going up the mountain!
The weather was fine in the afternoon, but it gets dark quickly in winter, so the three of them had to hurry up.

There are two types of firewood, one is the dead branches of mulberry trees cut short according to the seasons in the field, and the other is bundled and can be carried directly down the mountain.This is a consumable, not very useful.

The main firewood is another kind of big tree cut in advance.The main pole is left to dry in the forest to evaporate more than half of the water. After carrying it home, it is cut off with a saw and then split into several pieces with an axe and stacked.The branches cut from the tree are also dried in the sun, because the branches with dead leaves are small, and are generally used to start the fire after ignition.

A group of three went up the mountain, two men were in charge of carrying the tree, and Gu Xiaoqing was in charge of picking up the dead branches and fallen leaves.

The village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the distance between the mountains and the mountains is not far away, so I went back and forth two or three times in one afternoon.

The accident happened on the last trip.

At that time, Gu Xiaoshang told Jin Yiyao not to follow, he and Gu Xiaoqing would just pick up some dead branches and come back.

But Jin Yiyao remembered that he said that there was still a tree on the top of the mountain, which was the last tree cut down in their forest this year.

After so many days of delay, Jin Yiyao knew that he had to go back early tomorrow.When he goes back, the tree is 50.00% likely to be moved by Gu Bin and Gu Xiaoshang, and 50.00% likely to be moved by Gu Xiaoqing and Gu Xiaoshang.

For the latter, he decided to finish it with Gu Xiaoshang today.

It should be the reason why he has been exercising all the time. His body can handle such rough work.

The tree removal starts from near the foot of the mountain. The short distance is one aspect, and more importantly, it needs to be moved to make it easier to walk. The last big tree is near the top of the mountain, and the journey is a little farther.

The three of them had thought about everything, but the only thing they didn't expect was that it would get dark too quickly in winter.

When a group of people reached the top of the mountain, there was only a little light left on the horizon, and their vision was already dark. At first glance, they were full of intertwined tree shadows. They could only vaguely see the felled tree far away, but it was still conspicuous. .

"It's too late." Gu Xiaoqing resisted subconsciously, "Let's move tomorrow, let's go down the mountain first."

"I don't have time, I have to go back to work in the city." Gu Xiaoshang said, "Too many days off, the foreman is not happy anymore. As soon as I leave tomorrow, will you and Mr. Jin come to move? Or let Mr. Jin and Dad come ? Dad is very old..."

"But."

"It's okay." Jin Yiyao pressed her shoulder, "Have you brought your mobile phone?"

"I brought a flashlight." Gu Xiaoqing took out the flashlight that Lin Zihua specially gave her before going out.

Gu Xiaoshang's eyes flickered slightly, and he stretched out his hand towards her, "Give it to me, you don't go in, the road here is not easy to walk, I will illuminate and lead the way."

"If you want to carry the tree and it's not easy to take care of it, I'll do it." Gu Xiaoqing said.

"Okay." Gu Xiao didn't insist anymore, and walked into the forest first.

Jin Yiyao didn't say any more, and stretched out a hand towards her.

Gu Xiaoqing knew what he meant, but pursed her lips and brushed past him.

The three of them walked into the forest one by one. The sudden drop in temperature caused the three of them, who had been sweating all afternoon, to shiver.

Gu Xiaoqing reminded: "Be careful when going down the mountain later, the road may not be visible."

"I know." Gu Xiaoshang answered with a full mouth.

The last tree was as thick as a thigh, and the branches were cut aside early. After Gu Xiaoqing lit the lights for the two of them, he picked up the seemingly large bundle of branches that could actually bear the weight.

It's really cold in winter. Fortunately, there are many forests and forests, and most of the cold wind is blocked by the branches.

But every time I take a breath, I can still spit out a big mouthful of hot air.

Gu Xiaoqing was very careful about stepping, so as not to be caught by some weeds and vines, she always reminded the two of them to pay attention.

It was dark and the road was slippery, and the familiar road conditions became unfamiliar, and the few people relied on Gu Xiaoshang to guide the way alone.

"Isn't this the way we came up?" Gu Xiaoqing said suddenly, she put the light far away, and always felt that this road was very strange.

Gu Xiaoshang said: "I took another trail, but the road is a bit narrow. It's late and no one should be on the mountain, so as long as you don't run into anyone, you'll be fine."

Knowing that he was also considering everyone, Gu Xiaoqing had no objection, but felt a little uncomfortable when he made a decision without saying a word.That kind of discomfort is too subtle, just like moving this tree into the forest, I always feel uneasy.

Yes, disturbed.

But sometimes things like emotions are too catchy, and once they are sensitively aware of something, they will always spread out and scare themselves.

However, to make matters worse, the flashlight was out of power, and the light it emitted was so weak that it was useless.

This aggravated Gu Xiaoqing's uneasiness.

She can only force herself not to think about what is there and what is not, and calm down.

At this time, Gu Xiaoshang suddenly said: "No, I can't walk, something is stuck on my foot. Come and help me see."
