dance like a butterfly

In Tianshui, without Lao Han by his side, the days become monotonous and lengthy day by day.

I know, I have to adapt, and I have to adapt to it.

In the morning, before dawn, I put on my sneakers and jogged along the riverside road, watching the morning glow brighten the sky bit by bit in sweat in the cold autumn mist; in the morning market with a strong foreign accent, I Buying breakfast for my elder brother; wandering around the new house for half an hour in the morning, and then coming back to buy vegetables and cook; lying on the bed in the afternoon and reading novels, and asking the old horse what materials he needs to prepare for the next day at night. My simplest work and rest habit in more than a month.

As long as you have Lao Han in your heart, it will be sweet.

For a long time, I have been used to sleeping with my arms around his back, and I have also been used to waking up in the middle of the night occasionally, seeing his sleeping appearance under the dim light, and I am used to putting my face close to his face, I'm more used to him touching my arm without opening his eyes after being quarreled by me.

In the distant Tianshui, my hands are empty and have nowhere to put them.Even with a big soft pillow in my arms, I still feel cold in my arms.Occasionally, my fingers slipped down and landed on me, and my heart was full of panic: My long neck, strong chest, smooth skin, slender fingers, and strong lower limbs, nothing in my body was touched by Old Han. Touched, but not kissed by Lao Han?There is no place where Lao Han is not in ecstasy!But now, when Lao Han can't take care of them, they are being abandoned with time.I still vaguely remember, once at Yuxiang Gate, once on a cruise ship in the Tang Paradise Garden, I asked Lao Han, if one day I grow old and ugly, will you like me again, and you are forced to be old? Han fell to his knees in desperation.Recalling those scenes and the past events, they turned out to be so sweet and intriguing!

……

However, I also know that life would have to go on like this without Lao Han by my side.

Whenever Lao Han called, I tried to hold back many words in my heart, and asked him how things were going in Xi'an.

I asked him if he had printed and distributed promotional materials, and if he had written out his previous political achievements in an orderly manner as I said, had he written clearly what he would build Yinshuifang after he was re-elected? Have you written clearly about the newly added preferential treatment ideas for the elderly, children, and students? Have you written clearly that you will invest more money in the construction of hardware facilities such as sports, fitness, entertainment, and libraries in the village? Have you written clearly what he said before? If you want to set up a Yinshuifang joint-stock development company, you will link up the interests of each household and everyone, and so on.

Although Lao Han only participated in the election of the village head, I think such a large-scale propaganda is indispensable, just like the election of the Senate and House of Representatives in European and American countries, it should be formalized.

At first, Lao Han thought it was not necessary, but after listening to me about the benefits of doing so, he began to adopt it.

On the phone, Old Han laughed, "Xiaohui, it looks like I'm really looking for you, a college student who can come up with ideas. Now there are people in the village who are distributing these leaflets. I feel that the situation is very good."

I asked Lao Han if he had made his previous village affairs public.

Lao Han said that this is very troublesome.

I can also imagine the trouble that Lao Han said, but I urge Lao Han to be transparent in village affairs.Considering that Lao Han has been re-elected as the village chief for several terms, the village committee will naturally not be Qingshui Yamen. For a big village like theirs, especially an urban village under development, it is definitely impossible to be 100% honest and honest. However, according to Lao Han's personality, he is definitely not a very greedy person. Even if there are mistakes, it will not be a big problem. There should be no problem in doing accounts.

Lao Han thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll let Xueping and the others hurry up and do this in the next few days."

"Brother, this must be made public. Everyone must be very concerned about your accounts. If you think the earliest accounts are not easy to handle, you should disclose the accounts of the past three years. Everyone has the right to know, and that's the only way. Only in this way can the voters have nothing to say as much as possible, and feel that you are a reassuring person, the most reliable person, and the person who should still be trusted!"

Anyway, compared with the other candidates, Lao Han still has a mass base, at least he still has a considerable advantage in battle.

Compared with Lao Han’s treats at home, I prefer Lao Han to distribute some small daily necessities to everyone, for example, on lighters, and on disposable paper cups for drinking water, "Choose Han Jun is to choose Yinshuifang A better future!" words like this.

With such assumptions, I told Lao Han one by one, "Brother, think about it, there are people who use lighters and water glasses every day. Seeing such gadgets and seeing such words, wouldn't there be better publicity?" Effect? ​​Besides, it doesn’t cost a lot of money!”

Old Han was very surprised, "Why do you pretend to be like this? Why didn't I think of it? Well, well, just do as you said."

It's getting colder day by day, and after one or two soaking rains, Tianshui's morning and evening are even more chilly.

Lao Han said over and over again, Xiaohui, it's time to buy some clothes for you and your eldest brother, and if you like anything, just buy it yourself, don't be frugal.

In the old days, I would have listened to him.However, now that Lao Han has to spend money in so many places, and Tianshui still has a lot of expenses every day, he feels a little bit reluctant.I bought a thick coat, a thick sweater, and a pair of leather shoes for my eldest brother. I only bought an autumn shirt for myself, so I was reluctant to buy other things.

I don't think it is necessary to buy any more clothes.There are a lot of clothes at home in Xi’an. In the past, Lao Han never felt sorry for spending money on me. The clothes he bought before can be worn even if they are found out in a few years.Besides, after another ten and a half months, after the decoration here is finished, are you afraid that you will have no clothes to wear when you go back?

The house in Tianshui Huating gradually took on a certain look.The balcony, bathroom, living room, and kitchen are all covered with beige all-ceramic floor tiles, and the walls of each room are painted with clean white imitation porcelain waterproof paint. The bathroom is equipped with a Yuba, and the entire bathroom is properly installed. The wooden floor in the bedroom Binding is in progress.After counting the days, everything will be OK in no more than half a month.

Counting the days, I have actually stayed in Tianshui for nearly forty days!

On Saturday night, I called Lao Zuo, "Brother, have you been to Yinshuifang recently?"

"What's wrong?" Lao Zuo was a little nervous when he suddenly received a call from me. "Haven't you guys been in touch recently?"

"That's not true. It's just that I'm vaguely worried."

"What are you worried about?" Hearing that Lao Han and I often kept talking on the phone, Lao Zuo's tone was slightly calmer, "Old Han is doing things, what else are you worried about?"

"I," I don't know how to say it, and I feel a little ridiculous when Lao Zuo said this, but something that I can't explain has been making me very uneasy recently, "The things on his side are always right. An understatement. But I don't think it's actually what he says it is."

Lao Zuo smiled, "Of course, the main reason is that it's not the most critical time. Think about it, voters nowadays are all very smart. Except for those who are usually close to the candidates, most of them At this moment, who is willing to blatantly stand up for a certain candidate? Isn’t that obviously offending others? However, depending on the situation, Lao Han’s situation is better. I went to his place once, and his house is quite lively. There are at least 100 people who eat in a day."

"I want to go back and have a look." I hesitated and said.

"What are you doing back here? What do you want to see?" Lao Zuo strongly objected, "Don't you really understand why Lao Han put you in Tianshui? You have to know that at this time, you can't add a little disturbance to him, if If someone makes a fuss about you, wouldn't Lao Han waste all his previous efforts?"

"I'll go back secretly. I don't need to go back to the village or Yaxinyuan's house. I know Lao Han won't let me go back. I really miss him."

It's like a hundred cat's paws scratching my heart, thinking of Lao Han, thinking that if I have to stay until the end of the election, I really don't know what to do, I don't know how I will live the rest of these days.

"Xiaohui, I know how you feel now, but you are not a child anymore. If you can think, you have to be obedient. For the sake of the long-term, for you and for Lao Han, you have to bear it a little longer. Wait a minute."

Lao Zuo pondered for a while, then spoke in a low voice.

I thought Lao Zuo would help me, but this time, Lao Zuo refused.

Putting down the phone, I feel bored.

After another eight or nine days, the renovation of Tianshui Huating was finally declared complete.I invited Lao Ma and the workers to have dinner after work, and gave my elder brother 5000 yuan. The card left by Lao Han still has more than 12 yuan left. I haven’t moved a penny of Lao Zuo’s card. The time is back to him.

When he came back from the outside, the eldest brother happily packed up his things and said, "Third brother, I called Lao Han just now, and Lao Han said that he had put 5000 yuan on my booklet, and asked me to go back to Hua County temporarily, saying yes Contact me after he finishes his work, I'm leaving today, do you plan to go back to Xi'an?"

I smiled and shook my head.It seems that I have to continue to live in Lao Ma's house.

I bought a train ticket and sent my eldest brother off. At the train station, the night wind made me very tired.

Only then did I realize that when I had nothing to do, I was so empty and bored.I took out my phone, and I flipped through it, and suddenly found Chen Hanzhang's phone number, and I pressed it involuntarily.

The phone went through.

Chen Hanzhang was pleasantly surprised, "Xiaohui? It's so strange that you actually called me?"

I smiled, "I heard that you were sick, but I never asked you about it. You should scold me for being ignorant."

"How dare I, if I scold you, Han Jun won't eat me alive?"

It sounds like Chen Hanzhang is in a good mood, and he actually wants to make fun of me.

"How are you doing? I want to see you."

Anyway, Chen Hanzhang was kind to me once, he chased me with Xueping at Weinan Station that time, even though he was looking at Lao Han's face.

"Okay, I'm at the Fourth Medical University. If you can come, I will get better faster." Chen Hanzhang laughed.

"That's fine, I'll go tomorrow, but don't tell Lao Han."

"Okay. Don't tell him!" Chen Hanzhang readily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, I turned around and went to the ticket office to buy an overnight train ticket.

I want to go back to Xi'an, I want to see Lao Han, this is what I just want to do now.
