dance like a butterfly

In the next two days, we went to Shahu Lake in Pingluo, Zhenbei Fort, and Helan Mountain.

The beautiful sand lake, just in the [-]-acre water area, starts its sunset and sunrise dreamily.The beautiful clumps of reeds floating on the water are just like dandelions flying white catkins, which is the season when the reeds are flying.The reed flowers scattered in the air like snow, and the clear water of the lake made Old Han couldn't help but wander in his thoughts.The passionate kiss with Lao Han behind the reed, the sneaky feeling always stimulated the dreamlike fascination.Lao Han is just a book without words, which keeps me guessing, gives me new feelings and associations from time to time, makes me linger in reality and dreams, constantly find myself, and lose myself repeatedly.

In Zhenbei Fort, look at the dirt-bad doorway that Jiu'er walked through when he came out of the pavilion, and see the city gate where Zhizunbao and Fairy Zixia stood, which broke the hearts of lovers all over the world with a kiss through the ages.Looking at the Longmen Inn where the charming Maggie Cheung and the dizzyingly handsome Liang Jiahui had fought, I felt that between me and Lao Han, there must be someone, that is, the infatuated man who sang the shepherd song.The other one is the hero who rode the horse and raised the whip.Hero, riding home.

In Helan Mountain, eat dumplings in powder soup, stir-fry lamb, and drink Ningxia red wolfberry wine.The cliff paintings in my impression, and the strong men hungry to eat Hulu meat, laughed and talked about drinking the blood of the Huns, and drove a long cart to flatten the gap in Helan Mountain.The scenes of the hunting and farming of Uighur ancestors, and the sound of the collision of long spears and short halberds, made me think several times how old Han and I used to gallop outside the Great Wall, drink blood like a feather, and go south with a whip.The grass in the place where the dust is flying is green and then yellow, thousands of miles of emerald green, thousands of miles frozen.

What kind of pride and romance criss-crossed my thoughts, allowing me to fly freely in the sky with Lao Han's faint smile in an instant.

But there is a thin thread, which has been pulling my paper kite when I soared to [-] miles.

When I received a call from my dad, I was like a deflated ball, and said to Lao Han listlessly: "Brother, let's go back to Xi'an."

Old Han opened his mouth wide in surprise: "What's wrong with you?"

Dad told me one thing very anxiously.

Heidan and Shuanwa from my village went to the labor market in Xi'an.There is nothing strange about being listed on the market.Peasant people, after autumn and summer are busy, they will be idle if there is no farm work.With all his strength, he went to the labor market in big cities to try his luck, taking odd jobs and doing part-time jobs.The advantage of being listed on the market is that the wages are high, and you can get cash on the same day.Coincidentally, the two of them were called away by a school that day. What's more, when they were sweating profusely, wielding iron picks under the red sun at noon, they saw the old left .Seeing Lao Zuo made them suddenly feel like meeting old acquaintances in a foreign land-when Lao Zuo went to my hometown in Hua County, he played mahjong with them several times.We met, we met, it was a coincidence, but Lao Zuo insisted on inviting the two of them to lunch.Under Lao Zuo's sincere invitation, the overjoyed Heidan and Shuan Wa went with Lao Zuo to Little Sheep to eat Jiwei Shrimp once.

According to Heidan and Shuanwa who came back, when Lao Zuo was eating, he was very polite, poured wine for them in a very grand manner, chatted with them, and before leaving, he even bought a pack of "a pen" for each of them. cigarette.

If you eat, you eat, if you drink, you drink, if you take, you take, and if you show off to my dad, you show off.But these two long-tongued men told my dad that Lao Zuo had become thinner and darker, especially when they mentioned me to Lao Zuo, they saw that Lao Zuo's eye circles were red and tears flowed out.

Dad said angrily: "Xiaojun, you have no conscience! Are you getting awkward with your brother? I said you son of a bitch, your brother is a kind person who is hard to find in the world with a lantern. What will happen to you, only a white-eyed wolf like you who doesn't remember will hurt him!"

I have no discernment, and I have no way of defending it.For a stupid person like Dad, it's fine if he doesn't get angry. When he gets angry, it's like the Yellow River flooding.Even arguing is like trying to stop a flood with a shovel of soil, which is of no avail.

Dad said: "I am idle now, and I am idle now. I will go to Xi'an to see your brother. What happened to you? A big man shed tears for you. It must not be a small thing. What did you do?" Damn! You are not afraid that after I die, when someone scolds your ancestors, you will make me jump out of the grave in shame!"

If Lao Zuo is not married, if I am a woman, my father would definitely want me to marry Lao Zuo right away!How did this ghostly old Zuo warm the hearts of my neighbors and my father? !

Dad said: "I know your brother's mobile phone number, I'll call him right away, I'll go to Xi'an to see him, and ask what's going on. Even if I don't have your son, I will be Lao Zuo is my son!"

Hearing what my father said, my face turned pale.Dad came to Xi'an once when I just bought a house, and he refused to come if I called him again later, even though he said he couldn't stand the noise because of the crowds in Xi'an.However, I know that he is afraid of spending money. He thinks that the fare alone is enough for him to smoke cigarettes for two months.But this time, he was really in a hurry, for Lao Zuo, he was in a hurry.

What if Dad really comes to Xi'an?What if Lao Han also went to see my dad, and Lao Zuo happened to be there too?If Lao Zuo shed crocodile tears again in front of my father, my father would definitely be furious with me, and if I didn't make it right, he would slap his big ear blower over right away.What if there is no way to end it and make dad angry?

Peasant people, what they like are honest guys like Lao Zuo.

I hurriedly said: "Father, how about this, I'm still in Ningxia, you can come back after I go back. My left brother is also a department-level cadre anyway, and the public has no time unless it is a weekend. If you disturb him now, It's impossible for him not to receive you, but it will delay people's normal work. How about it, today is Wednesday, and you can come back on Saturday!"

I had to find an excuse to delay Dad's visit to Xi'an for a few days.

"Then, let me call your brother first." Dad hesitated, half-believing.

I rushed to say: "Dad, don't call, I'll call him, you have never called him, if you call him today, he will think that something is wrong with you, and he will be more anxious .Let me fight."

Dad was silent.After a while, he said: "Listen to me, you heartless thief. I will go to Xi'an on Saturday. If I know that you are bullying your brother, be careful that I will strip your skin!" (Teng Pi: Shaanxi dialect, meaning skinning .)

Dad hung up the phone angrily, and I seemed to hear him sighing.

Lao Han has been silent, looking at me with wide eyes.

I didn't pay attention to Lao Han, I didn't expect my father to come, it was really troublesome.

Old Zuo, you make my teeth itch with hatred.

After a while, Lao Han stretched out his hand and squeezed mine: "Your old man is coming to Xi'an? For Lao Zuo?"

I didn't speak, he asked knowingly.

"What are you going to do? Hmm?"

Ask me what to do?How do I know what to do?Let's talk about it when we go back.

"Xiaohui, I'm really worried." Old Han said softly.

I turned my head and looked at Lao Han's face, a faint melancholy bloomed on his face.

"Xiaohui, brother knows that Lao Zuo has done his work very carefully. He has already bought everyone around you. Don't mind me talking like this." Lao Han hugged me tightly, he was afraid that I would mind him wording.

"Xiao Hui, now that the old man is here, will Lao Zuo continue to act in front of the old man? Will you stay away from brother?"

I gently pushed Lao Han away, and touched his lips with my lips: "Put your heart in your belly. Lao Zuo is good to me, my family, and my neighbors. But, I There is only affection for him, no love."

"Is there a difference between affection and love?" Old Han was puzzled.

Is it because I can't express clearly, or is it that Lao Han doesn't want to use his brain?
