I really don't want to be a teacher

……

"……came back?"

"...Why haven't you slept yet?"

"...It's your precious son who refuses to sleep. He has to wait in the living room for you to come back. He even left you a special bowl of glutinous rice balls, so he just guarded the bowl of glutinous rice balls... and fell asleep on the sofa in the living room..."

Opening the door, a middle-aged man walked into the room.

The wife sitting in the living room stood up and spoke to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man listened, put his foot down a little more lightly, and walked into the main room lightly,

Looking at his son sleeping on the sofa, and then at the bowl of glutinous rice balls on the coffee table in front of his own son, a smile appeared on his face,

Walking up to his son, he gently pulled the quilt covering his son again.

Seemingly hearing the movement, the boy opened his eyes and saw the middle-aged man, with some surprise in his eyes, he sat up,

"...Dad, you're back..."

"...Yes, Dad is back, wait a long time..."

"Well...it's been a long time, not too long...Dad, it's the Lantern Festival today... The teacher said that eating glutinous rice balls on the Lantern Festival is reunion, and reunion means that the whole family is together...I asked my mother to leave you a bowl , Dad, eat quickly...um...it seems a little cold."

"...it's okay."

Hearing his child's words, the middle-aged man squatting in front of the sofa paused, then responded with a smile, turned around, picked up the bowl of glutinous rice balls,

"...It tastes just as good when it's cold."

The glutinous rice balls were already cold, but the middle-aged man was still holding the bowl, eating happily.

……

"Let's go."

By the river, by the street.

Return the two borrowed stools to the shop on the street.

Lian Ge turned his gaze again, walked along the street, and looked into the distance at the gurgling river outside the street.

He said something aloud, and then moved his foot away.

Along the river, one person and one mouse went upstream.

Chapter 812

"sough……"

Follow the riverside streets, towards the upper reaches of the river, against the current.

On the surface of the river, the river water reflects some moonlight from the moon in the night above, in the city, street lights, and lights of people in high-rise buildings.

In the night, the moon emerges from time to time, and is covered by clouds and mist from time to time.

Stepping on the lights of the street lamps by the riverside, listening to the rustling and rustling of branches and leaves mixed with the gusts of breeze, the river is flowing.

While walking, Lian Ge watched the scene along the way.

On the shoulder, the little white mouse also turned its head, looking around in the distance.

it's late at night,

There were very few vehicles and pedestrians on the street, and it took a long time to see a person wrapped in clothes hurrying past, and a car passing by a bridge across the river, heading into the distance.

On both sides of the river bank, among the high-rise buildings in the distance, the lights in each house gradually went out.

……

The breeze disturbs the riverside streets, the rustling of branches and leaves of the trees and leaves mixed with the gurgling of the river in the river,

On the bank of the river, there are a few houses and shops with some lights on, approaching by the side, and then drifting away behind.

Overhead, the moon hanging obliquely in the night gradually changed its position,

The night is getting darker.

Walk along the riverside street, toward the upper reaches of the river.

Passing across a bridge across the river, the side gradually became deserted.

……

The street below gradually turned into a repaired embankment on the river bank, and the street lamps standing outside the embankment gradually disappeared.

The last street lamp that swayed down some lights gradually moved away behind him, and gradually disappeared into the night.

Along the river that passes through Xugou City, one person and one mouse walked out of Xugou City,

Walking up the river again, looking at the scene along the way.

The city is dotted with lights, and the houses with lights in the city also follow behind and gradually go away.

On the side, there is only the moon emerging from the clouds from time to time in the night,

The shadow of the man under the moon is faintly reflected on the ground, and some moonlight is swaying on the dark river.

……

The river gradually widened,

Under the feet, it gradually turned into a muddy road trampled by the river bank,

Outside the river bank, on the other side, there are rice fields first, and some seasonal crops are planted in the fields,

Then gradually meandering forward with the river, gradually walking into the continuous mountains, and the sides turned into some hillsides and hills interlaced with dense branches and leaves.

Follow the winding river, along the river bank, and then around a hill.

Lian Ge turned his gaze again, looked forward along the river and looked at the distance, and then at the other side of the river bank, the densely branched forest,

Then he moved his feet away, walked a little closer to the river bank, and stopped under a tree casually.

"... chee chee, chee chee..."

Lian Ge casually sat down with his legs crossed under the tree.

The little white mouse on the shoulder turned its head immediately, looked around, jumped from the shoulder to the branch of the tree next to it, looked around with its forelimbs upright, and curled up on the tree trunk to lie down.

Listening to the mountain wind blowing by, the sound of insects ringing in my ears, mixed with the rustling and rustling of branches and leaves, and the gurgling sound of the river.

Lian Ge turned his gaze again, and looked not far away. In the river, the moon hanging obliquely in the night was reflected, reflecting some moonlight, and some dark river water.

Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge closed his eyes and took a rest.

……

"...Dad, why do you have to water the ground?"

"...Because, the crops in the field also need to drink water, so that they can grow."

On the banks of the river, in the mountains and forests, slept the night.

One person and one mouse walked along the bank of the river, gradually drifting away towards the upper reaches of the river.

On one side, the river meanders and stretches forward. The water in the river is either rushing in narrow places, or gentle in open places.

On the other side, the densely branched and leafy mountains and forests gradually passed through, some rivers passed by, or some villages in the valley, or at the foot of the mountain.

Moving his feet, stepping on the path beside the river, Lian Ge looked at the sights on both sides of the river along the way, the people, and listened to the voices of the people on both sides of the river mixed with the sound of the river flowing in the river, the mountains and forests Insects chirping and birds chirping.

Walking along the riverside again, walking out of the mountain forest, the eyes opened up again.

On both sides of the river, on one side is a village not far from the river bank, and there are some houses scattered in the village.

On one side, there are ridges and ridges, rice fields, and some rapeseed and wheat are planted in the fields.

The wheat seedlings swayed with the breeze.

A somewhat old bridge runs across the narrow part of the river, connecting both sides of the river bank.

A tributary, which seemed to be dug by hand, extended from the side of the river and meandered in the fields.

A man with trousers and sleeves is standing in the tributary ditch, moving the stones beside him, pressing the woven bag, intercepting the water in the river, digging the gap to the ground, and irrigating the ground next to the tributary. wheat seedlings.

Next to the tributary, on the ridge of the field, a child followed the man, squatting beside the man, a little curious, watching the man's movements, and talking to the man.

"...Is that so..."

Listening to the man's answer, the child nodded seriously, as if he understood.

"...Dad, let's go back then. When we came out, Mom was already cooking breakfast."

"...Okay, let's go, let's go back."

"... Go back, go back."

……

Walk past the somewhat old bridge, and then cross the tributary beside the river.

Listening to the voices on both sides of the strait with the gusts of breeze ringing in my ears,

Lian Ge didn't stop much, just walked upstream along the river.

Watching, listening, the sights on both sides of the road, people, people.

……

"...a filial son and a filial daughter step forward..."

"... Crackling..."

I walked through another village by the river, and walked for a while along the river.

It seems that on the front side, the river meanders again, bypassing the entrance of a village.

A little farther away, at the entrance of the village, beside the river,

Seems to be doing something for nothing,

Dressed in white cloth, the team holding filial piety flags stopped by the river,

The Taoist priest who led the head greeted, the front side of the head was wrapped in a white cloth, and the person with a piece of white cloth hanging behind was holding a black and white photo in his hand.

Firecrackers were set off again,

The Taoist priest was doing rituals, and a middle-aged man ran to the slope along the bank of the river, and ran to the river, holding a bottle to hold the water in the river.

"Crackling..."

After the Taoist priest recited the scriptures, the person who asked for water filled the river with water.

Firecrackers were hung again, and the team dressed in white cloth and holding filial piety flags walked towards the village again.

On the river bank, there are only some unburned incense candles, ashes left by the paper money, and some smoke.

……

Listening to the distant sound of mourning music, Lian Ge walked along the river bank, where there were still some ashes of joss sticks and paper money,

go further

Move your feet, listen, and watch the scenes on both sides of the road, people.

……

all the way,

Overhead the sun changes position,

On the side, by the river, on both banks, mountains and villages by the river passed by.

There is a village not far from the river, where there is smoke from cooking, and a river passes through the village, and there are voices of people talking in the houses on both sides of the river,

Some people were driving free-range ducks in the river, and some people took long ladles and splashed water on the vegetable fields by the river.

Some people are doing funeral things by the river, and some are celebrating their birthdays by the river.

"...Old Chen, you're carrying water in the river again."

The river passes through a village. An old man is carrying a shoulder pole with two buckets attached to both ends of the pole.
