dance like a butterfly

Thinking of Lao Han who is currently on the cusp of the storm, and thinking of him during this time, every time he calls, he is trying to comfort me with an understatement of good news and not bad news, I can't help but bow my head, with mixed feelings in my heart.

It was just a change of the village chief, but it turned into a cruel war. There was no smoke of gunpowder, but there was also smoke everywhere.This is a living reality, but also like an illusory film and television drama.

After coming out of the hospital, I felt very tired, and then I remembered that I hadn't rested all night.

Checking the time, it was past five o'clock, and I called Lao Zuo.

"Xiaohui, why is it so early?"

Listening to the voice, it feels like he is not sleepy.

"You didn't sleep all night, did you? Brother?"

"Hehe, what's the matter?" He was noncommittal, but came to ask me instead.

"I want to go to your place."

At this moment, I have nowhere to go except Lao Zuo's place.

"Are you in Xi'an?" Old Zuo was taken aback.

"Yeah." I answered him, and even I could hear that my voice was weak and astringent.

"Where are you? I'll pick you up!"

"No, I just came out of Chen Hanzhang's place, I can just take a ride there by myself."

It was very cold on the street, my cheeks were cold, and the weak light of the street lamps shone on. I could almost see the white heat rising up every word I uttered, and I couldn't help rubbing my hands and cheeks.It's already mid-November, and I don't have any thick clothes to wear.When I came out just now, Chen Hanzhang asked Xiao Liu to see me off. I lied that I drove out and the car was downstairs.

Hang up the phone and reach out to block a green BYD.On Kangfu Road and Changle Road, several sanitation workers were cleaning the leaves on the street, and the sound of the broom falling on the ground was very loud.On Lianhu Road, North Street, there were also a few old people jogging slowly.In the early winter of Xi’an, there was no one coming and going, the streets were very quiet, the neon lights outside the shops were closed, and most people were still dreaming sweetly, but my old Han, in his old house, Are you having another long sleepless night?

Under this quiet appearance, who is happy and who is sad, who is flourishing, who has worked hard, and who can only retire in the end?

When I arrived at Yuxiangmen’s house, Lao Zuoxu was waiting for me with the door closed. Hearing a noise, he came out of the kitchen with a bowl of shredded pork noodles with green vegetables in his hand.

"Eat quickly, you must be hungry."

You're welcome, I took the bowl and sat down.

Seeing me devouring my food, Lao Zuo handed over a cup of hot water, "Why are you dressed so poorly? Even if you didn't bring any clothes, you should buy a few!"

I smiled wryly, "Why didn't you tell me about the website and flyers?"

"Is it useful to tell you? What problem can you solve? Besides, it's not my intention not to tell you. Old Han told me repeatedly."

Think about it, too, useless is a scholar.

"You stayed in Tianshui well, why did you run back? If Lao Han finds out about this, he will be blamed if he doesn't rush to death! Why can't you save him a little worry?"

Lao Zuo never complained about me, this time, it was an exception.

"Brother, have you only been to Yinshuifang once during this period of time? Have you seen Lao Han once?"

In the city of Xi'an, no one can be trusted, and I only trust Lao Zuo.

"How can it be? I often go there. Thinking that you are out of town, you have more than enough energy to help him. I will try my best to visit him and see if there is anything I can do to help."

I took out three cards and handed them over, "The one from ICBC is yours, I don't need it, so you can keep it yourself. The one from Agricultural Bank of China was given by Lao Han. After the renovation of the house, there is still 12 yuan left. This CCB card has 28 in it, and it belongs to me. When you are free, give him these two cards."

"Why do you have so much money yourself?" Lao Zuo was surprised.

I smiled sadly and pointed my finger, "You forgot, you gave me part of the money for this house, and lied that your relatives wanted to buy it. The rest is my previous income. I moved to Yaxin Garden, and I want to buy it." The money was paid for buying a house, but Lao Han didn’t want it. I originally planned to spend it on Haohao when he grew up. But now Lao Han must be using the money, so I can’t care about much.”

Lao Zuo said, "Alright, I'll give him all these cards for you. At this juncture, I hope our painstaking efforts are not in vain."

"What are your plans when you come down?" Lao Zuo put away his card and asked me.

"I don't know, it's just that I can't stay in Tianshui. I really want to go back to Yaxin Garden, and I just want to be with Lao Han."

"But you really can't go back, you have to listen to Lao Han's arrangement. How about this, you have a good sleep first, and when I come back in the afternoon, I will take you to Tianshui." He said without allowing me to refute.

"Is he okay? Is he thinner or darker?" I asked worriedly.

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Whoever put him in today's position will be blamed if he doesn't get skinned!" Lao Zuo shook his head lightly.

My heart aches for Lao Han.Thinking of Zhang Wenqing, my teeth itch with hatred.

"Go to sleep, you still say Lao Han, looking at your face, anyone who sees it will feel distressed." Lao Zuo laughed.

Lying on the bed, smoking a cigarette, thinking that when I lived with Lao Zuo in this room, and lying on this bed, how could I meet Zhang Wenqing while surfing the Internet, thinking about meeting Lao Han on the stairs, thinking Next to the North Bus Station and the accidental encounter with Lao Han... Everything, could it be said that fate really arranged it for me a long time ago?After much deliberation, I couldn't think of any clues, sleepiness hit me, and my head sank slowly.

I don't know how long I slept when I was woken up by the phone ringing.It seems that the call is actually from the elder brother.

"Third, are you still in Tianshui?"

Thinking that I ran back secretly, I coped and said, "Yes. Have you been to Hua County?"

"Here we are." The elder brother coughed.

"Why is it so noisy next to you?" I asked, there seemed to be a lot of people next to my elder brother.

"Well, it's nothing, it's just some of our township party members, asking this and that. By the way, don't run around. Lao Han told me several times that you should stay in the hotel if you have nothing to do. If you run around, I can't do business for Lao Han."

I laughed, my eldest brother cared about me very rarely.

Agreed to hang up the phone.Old Zuo went to work, and only the quartz clock on the wall was ringing in the room. I turned over, pulled the quilt to cover my head, and fell asleep again.

Waking up again, the sound of pots and pans clashing came from the kitchen. Lao Zuo was cooking. Looking out the window, it was getting dark.Going to the bathroom to take a urinate, Lao Zuo yelled, "Are you awake? There are some clothes on the table in the living room. Try them on to see if they fit. Wash your face and eat later."

Opening several paper bags on the table, there was a smoke gray thick sweater with a lapel and a pair of cashmere wool pants.Make gestures on your body, the size is just right.

Lao Zuo still remembers the size of my clothes very clearly.

By the time I finished washing my face, the food was already on the table.

Lao Zuo said, "After dinner, I'll take you to the train station. You've already bought your ticket. It's not that I'm driving you away. It's that you really don't fit to stay in Xi'an at this time."

I buried my head and just ate and didn't talk.An inexplicable sadness overflowed, and in my heart, lingering like a haze.For the first time in my life, I felt like a burden in this world.

At around nine o'clock, Lao Zuo and I arrived at the train station.

On the platform, clutching the train ticket, looking back at Xi'an, tears welled up in my eyes.

"Don't worry, Lao Han will be fine, I will try my best to help him." Lao Zuo patted me on the shoulder, and after speaking, he took out an envelope from the top pocket of his leather jacket, "Here is another 1 yuan Take the money and use it first. If it’s not enough, call and tell me.”

Seeing that I didn't answer it, Lao Zuo stuffed the envelope into my arms, zipped up my jacket for me, and said with a smile, "Remember, bear with it, everything will pass."

"Then when will I come back, you say?" I pressed him.

"It's only ten and a half days, Lao Han will definitely notify you."

Leaving aside Lao Han, Lao Han didn't call me all day today.I can imagine that he is very busy, what is he doing now?Have you discussed action arrangements with Xueping and the others?Has he eaten yet?Has his beard and hair grown?How many chaotic sleeps did he have?Could he be worrying about money?I felt uneasy again.

Just after the car passed Yangling, the phone rang.Calculating the time, it should be Lao Han who called. I was afraid that he would recognize that I was on the train, so I hurried into the bathroom and closed the door in two or three steps.When I took out the phone to check, it turned out to be the eldest brother again.

"Third brother, are you in Tianshui?" the eldest brother asked hastily.

"Yes. What's the matter?" I smiled and lied without changing my face or heartbeat.

"I, I just asked the old horse, and he said he didn't see you back last night." The elder brother's voice was a little breathless.

"Oh, I didn't go back last night. I went out."

"What's the point of shopping alone? It's a waste of money. Besides, it's getting cold. Go back early."

Hanging up the phone, I was lamenting that my eldest brother is a life-changing person, when Lao Han's call just came.

"Xiaohui, are you okay?"

His voice was hoarse.

"Okay, you... okay?!"

Thinking about what Chen Hanzhang said in the morning, and hearing Lao Han's voice hoarse due to fatigue, my heart ached again.

"Okay, brother is afraid that you are in a hurry, so I will call you quickly, and I will go out later."

"are you busy?"

"I'm a little busy. No, for the votes, I have to distribute some things, like rice, cooking oil, flour, etc." Lao Han laughed. "Look, brother is also bribing voters."

Although he pretended to be relaxed, I could still hear the helplessness in his emotions.I guess, in a big village like Yinshuifang, in order to get more votes, Zhang Wenqing will definitely distribute votes no later than Lao Han. Maybe he distributes them door to door, maybe not only for rice flour oil, but as small as white sugar, Washing powder and soap will be distributed to every household.These things will definitely not cost less money. I hope that Lao Zuo will send the money to Lao Han sooner, and I will be able to do my best for Lao Han sooner.

"Well then, go get busy. I'm fine. Don't worry about me. You have time to rest. I'm waiting for your good news, and I'm waiting for you to inform me to go back sooner."

Lao Han said hello and happily hung up the phone.

After two o'clock, the train stopped in Tianshui.

Not many people get off.I didn't have any luggage, and I left the station. In order not to disturb the old horse at such a late hour, I was thinking about whether to spend the night in a small hotel outside while walking, but a small black car came quietly and stopped beside me. .

The car was too close to me, and I thought it was a black car soliciting customers. I was about to avoid the rejection, but the window glass rolled down, and a deep voice called out, "Xiaohui!"

I turned my face to look and was stunned.

It turned out to be the old Han I think about day and night!He has short hair, fair skin, green chin, and a well-maintained face that glows faintly red under the street lamp, and his teeth are neat and white. Seeing me looking at him, he also smiled at me.
