Ren Zhi

The smell of rice wafted from the kitchen, the smell of cumin mixed with a hint of onion, and Chen Renzhi sneezed.

"Ren Zhi, have you bought the noodles?" Mother Chen poked her head out from the kitchen. Chen Renzhi was holding the bought cooked noodles in his hands. He was wearing a pair of slippers casually, and now he changed into another pair.

"My dad has eaten?" Chen Renzhi walked into the kitchen, put the noodles on the kitchen cabinet, and went to the sink to wash his hands.

"Well, the noodles at home are enough for your father and Ren Jia. I will fry them for us now." Mother Chen was holding a green pepper. She cut open the belly of the green pepper, took out the seeds inside, and put it in Rinse under the tap.

"By the way," Chen's mother shook the water off the washed green peppers, and put the green peppers on the chopping board. Chen Renzhi just walked to the kitchen door and stopped.

Chen's mother said, "Go back to your hometown to see your grandfather during the summer vacation. It's fine to stay at home. Take your books with you, and the countryside is quiet."

Chen Renzhi turned around and nodded slightly: "Yes."

"You go to the county town by car to call your grandpa's landline. Your aunt bought an electric car for your grandpa a few weeks ago. When the time comes, she will call your grandpa to pick you up. It's difficult to get a car in my hometown."

"When are you going?" Chen Renzhi asked.

"I'll go after dinner in a while."

Mother was making fried noodles in the kitchen, while Chen Renzhi was packing up his things in the room.

While sitting on the bus back to the county, Chen Renzhi called Zhang Yue.

"You said you want to go back to your hometown?" Zhang Yue was eating the takeaway at home.

"Well, it should be a long time." Chen Renzhi said truthfully.

"It's fun to eat there."

Chen Renzhi responded in a low voice.

When approaching the county seat, Chen Renzhi called his grandfather again.

The county is rushing to the market, and there are many more people selling vegetables on the roadside than last time. Chen Renzhi found a shady place next to the bus stop and waited. The overwhelming singing of cicadas and the shouting of vendors made this summer Seeming even more irritable, Chen Renzhi waited for a while before his grandfather arrived.

It wasn't until sitting on the sofa in the living room of his hometown that Chen Renzhi felt a bit of coolness.

Looking at the two-story building from the outside, it is almost full of creepers. Chen Jian once said that he wanted to find someone to pull out the creepers for fear of snakes. Grandpa said that with the creepers, summer would be much cooler.

At this moment, Chen Renzhi can personally feel the good intentions of his grandfather at that time. The place where he sits is the living room for receiving people at home. The sofa is made of wood, which has a sense of age. The small door next to it leads directly to the backyard. The chicken crowed.

Chen Renzhi's grandmother passed away a few years ago. Although his grandfather is in his 70s, his body is still very strong.He came over with a sliced ​​watermelon: "Let it go, eat the watermelon."

Grandpa spoke the local dialect, and Chen Renzhi also spoke the dialect to him, "Grandpa, you eat too." He took the plate from Grandpa's hand.

There is a family next door who will marry their son a wife tomorrow, and the grandfather will go over to help in a while, so he tells Chen Renzhi to stay at home and go to the uncle's house to find him if he has anything to do.

Bored, Chen Renzhi ran to the backyard. There were many flowers and plants that his grandfather tended in the backyard. He couldn't name them. In the backyard, he could see the water tower in the village many years ago.

Chen Renzhi remembered that when he was a child, he and his aunt's cousin stole walnuts from the house next to the water tower, which caused his trouser pockets to be green at that time.

Thinking of the funny things in his childhood, Chen Renzhi laughed unconsciously, and he suddenly thought of Zhang Yue again.

It seemed to be telepathic, as soon as he thought of Zhang Yue, that person called.

Zhang Yue was bored at home and planned to visit Chen Renzhi's hometown, but he became dizzy when he arrived at the passenger station. Which train he was a little confused.

Chen Renzhi was a little surprised to learn that Zhang Yue was coming, but Zhang Yue was indeed a little lonely at home alone. He suddenly thought that the car coming from the county would be difficult to take, and how would Zhang Yue come here.

After Chen Renzhi told Zhang Yue which car to take, he went to the family where his son was going to get married to find his grandfather.

Grandpa was very happy when he was told that a classmate was coming, and insisted on riding his electric car to the county to pick him up.Considering that it was hot in the summer, and grandpa had to help the uncle of the family, Chen Renzhi borrowed a bicycle and rode to the county town.

The county seat is about four to ten minutes away from the village. It was just after three o'clock in the afternoon when Chen Renzhi arrived. The sun was scorching the earth, and the shady place in the morning was also patronized.

Chen Renzhi frowned. The bicycle was not locked. He leaned the bicycle beside a small shop outside the station and watched the direction of the station.

When the bus was about to pull into the station, Zhang Yue seemed to see Chen Renzhi in a daze. Chen Renzhi was standing next to the canteen outside the station, as if he was waiting for someone.

Zhang Yue wasn't sure, so he ran to the canteen just now after getting off the car. He was carrying a big bag, which contained some daily necessities and a change of clothes.

From a distance, it could be confirmed that it was Chen Renzhi, Zhang Yue ran faster, and Chen Renzhi seemed to have seen him, pushing his bicycle and walking towards this side.

"Is it hot?" This was the first sentence Chen Renzhi asked after the two met.

Zhang Yue shook his head, he took out a bottle of mineral water from his bag and handed it to Chen Renzhi.

"You want to drive me?" He pointed to the bicycle Chen Renzhi was pushing with some surprise.

Chen Renzhi nodded, then shook his head, and looked at him: "Can you ride a bicycle?"

"I will," Zhang Yue took the schoolbag off his back and put it in the basket in front of the bicycle.

This is a cement road, which was repaired in the village a few years ago. The road is a little narrow, and it is dangerous when two cars drive towards each other. On one side of the road are the houses of the village, and on the other side, you can see the terraced fields below. And the little river that just passed by.

Chen Renzhi sat on the back seat and gently grabbed Zhang Yue's clothes. A hand stretched behind him, holding Chen Renzhi's hand around his waist.

Zhang Yue rode a little fast, the breeze was blowing, but mixed with a trace of heat, Zhizhi's voice resounded through the sky, and the voices of the two were swallowed up.

"Is it cool?" Zhang Yue rode faster and faster, he turned around and shouted at Chen Renzhi.

Chen Renzhi looked at him and smiled, reminding him to look ahead.

A van honked its horn behind the two of them, and Zhang Yue leaned slightly to the right. The car whizzed past the two of them, and the dust raised Zhang Yue's eyes.

He rubbed, stopped suddenly, smiled narrowly, looked at Chen Renzhi and said, "Show me."

Zhang Yue's legs were on the ground, and he looked down at Chen Renzhi. Chen Renzhi's hair was a little messy, and there was also dust on it. Zhang Yue brushed it with his hands, frowned, and pointed to his eyes.

Chen Renzhi looked around, and there was only an old man walking in front. He breathed lightly, and Zhang Yue immediately opened his eyes: "Okay!" After Chen Renzhi sat down, he rode forward quickly, pedaling The pedals worked a lot harder.

When Chen Renzhi's grandfather came back, he found that he had an extra child.

He is a very kind person, and he repeatedly asked Zhang Yue whether he was hungry or thirsty. The dialect was a bit obscure for Zhang Yue who grew up in the city, and Chen Renzhi was doing the translation in a low voice.Chen Renzhi felt a little embarrassed for some reason. He felt like the grandson of his uncle's family brought his granddaughter-in-law during the Chinese New Year. He asked his grandfather to sit down and introduced to him that this was his classmate with good academic performance.

The small courtyard at night is much cooler than the house, so grandpa moved out a bamboo bed and put it in the courtyard.There are many stars in the countryside, the sky is very bright, and the lights under the eaves are also on.

The little girl next door came to the house to borrow mulberry leaves, saying that she needed to use mulberry leaf bags to dye her nails with flowers.

Sitting on the bamboo bed with Zhang Yue, Chen Renzhi watched the grandfather picking mulberry leaves with the little girl in his arms. He looked up at the sky: "The moon is so round tonight."

Grandpa went to bed after nine o'clock. At this time, only Chen Renzhi and Zhang Yue were left in the courtyard. Zhang Yue gently held Chen Renzhi's hand, and the two leaned together.

"There is no place to take a bath at home. If you want to take a bath, just take a basin of water and wipe it in the room." Chen Renzhi looked at Zhang Yue, "Is your leg okay?"

"It's okay." Zhang Yue smiled at him.

"Don't take it lightly if you hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days." Chen Renzhi glanced at him.

It was early morning when the two of them returned to the room, and they moved lightly so as not to disturb the sleeping grandpa next door.Since people don't come to the house very often, grandpa let the two live together for convenience.

This is in the arms of the two of them.

As soon as he entered the room, Zhang Yue began to be dishonest. He hugged Chen Renzhi and walked to the bed. Chen Renzhi struggled, but Zhang Yue became even more crazy.The two tried their best to avoid making a sound, hugging each other carefully and kissing.

After kissing for a while, Zhang Yue's hand began to touch down.

Under the fire of dry wood, the two teenagers who were in their youth spent a beautiful and lingering night.

Chen Renzhi didn't wake up until noon the next day, and when he saw Zhang Yue, his face turned suspiciously red. Zhang Yue saw that he woke up, walked over and gently followed his back, with one leg raised, and his face was full of spring breeze. The appearance made Chen Renzhi dare not recall what happened last night.

"Grandpa went to the neighbor's house early in the morning to help. He said that when you wake up and are hungry, you will go to the uncle's house next door." Zhang Yue looked at him with a smile, and Chen Renzhi kept his mouth shut.

"I know... You definitely won't be able to get out of bed today." Zhang Yue pretended to be a hooligan and looked down at the towel covered by Chen Renzhi.

"Be serious." Chen Renzhi looked at Zhang Yue seriously.

"I told grandpa that we will cook at home today." Zhang Yue stroked Chen Renzhi's head, as if it wasn't enough, he stroked it again until his messy hair became even more messy.

"You know how to cook?" Chen Renzhi was skeptical.

"Hey," Zhang Yue pointed to the bag on his back, "I brought instant noodles."

"Why do you bring everything with you?" Chen Renzhi said casually.

But Zhang Yue remembered what happened last night, and replied with some excitement: "Of course, of course, you must be ready at any time if you want to do anything."
