Wear to the 90s to farm and fall in love

The days in the mountains always pass quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the various crops planted in autumn are harvesting again.

The sesame seeds planted by Ding Yunfei's family have also matured. Although they were sown late this year, due to the good management of the field, the sesame seeds have grown well and produced a lot of seeds.

Together with Ding Yunfei and Chen Sufen, it took them several days to harvest the few acres of sesame seeds planted in the field. After harvesting, after several days of drying, the sesame seeds were finally dried. The dried sesame seeds are sold in the market.

There are a lot of sesame seeds planted this season, and the output is quite high. There are more than 100 catties of sesame seeds in one mu of land. Ding Yunfei planted three acres of land and harvested nearly 300 catties of sesame seeds. The price of sesame seeds has increased this year. This time, sesame seeds It sold for a lot of money, and more than 1000 catties of sesame seeds sold for more than [-] yuan.

Ding Yunfei gave all the money to Chen Sufen, and he only took two or three hundred yuan.The last time Ding Xiaoying had no living expenses, Chen Sufen borrowed money from her natal family, and the last time Chen Sufen was ill and had no money to see a doctor, so she borrowed money from others. Chen Sufen had to take the money back to others, and keep the rest of the money. With the daily expenses, I have to leave some for Ding Xiaoying's living expenses for the next month, and there is not much money left. Although life is a bit tight, Ding Yunfei believes that life will definitely get better and better.

After selling the sesame seeds, Chen Sufen bought a bag of rice at the market, and then went home by car.Ding Yunfei still had to get a haircut, so he didn't go back with Chen Sufen.

He still went to the barbershop he used to go to. When the barbershop owner gave him a haircut, he said casually: "The young man has lost a lot of weight compared to the last time he came here. Is he sick or broken in love?"

This sentence stunned Ding Yunfei for a long time, and after a long time, he replied in a low voice: "No."

After answering, he didn't say anything more, and stared blankly at the mirror in front of him. In the mirror, the owner of the shop was cutting his hair with scissors. He looked blankly at the face, which seemed to be thin Many, without any expression on his face, for a moment, he was thinking, is this him?

Then I thought, this is him, but not him.

After finishing his haircut, he walked out of the barber shop, walked aimlessly on the street, and unknowingly walked to the video store on the second floor of the shopping mall. He stood for a long time in front of the shelves full of tapes, I don't know what he remembered, his eyes were red, and in the end he didn't buy anything, and left feeling disappointed.

After dinner in the evening, he stood at the door of the house again, looking at the yard with ecstasy.After nine o'clock, he went out with a flashlight and walked alone on the dark road towards the entrance of the village.

Since Wei Yao left, he hadn't gone out at night, because he was afraid of bumping into villagers on the road, and the villagers would point and make irresponsible remarks behind his back.But it was more because there was one less person beside him, the one who walked and chatted with him, and he didn't want to walk alone on this familiar road.

He and Wei Yao walked this path countless times before, but now he is the only one walking alone.

Ding Yunfei walked towards the entrance of the village with a dejected expression, and soon came under the banyan tree at the entrance of the village. He looked at the banyan tree quietly, then walked behind the banyan tree, raised his hand and gently stroked the old trunk of the banyan tree.In the past, he was often kissed here by Wei Yan, and he was often kissed by Wei Yan, his face flushed and his heart beat faster. After Wei Yao finished kissing him, he liked to hug him and whisper in his ear.

Now those soft words are still in my ears, and the sweetness in the past is still vivid in my memory, but the person who hugged him and kissed him is no longer around.

Thinking of this, Ding Yunfei couldn't help feeling sad, tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes, he leaned against the banyan tree, raised his head, closed his eyes and let the tears flow on his face...

After the sesame seeds were harvested, it was time to cut sugar cane, and the villagers started to get busy again.Ding Yunfei's family also grows a lot of sugar cane, and he is also busy.The villagers still helped each other harvest sugarcane as they did last year.

Although Ding Yunfei was not well-known in the village because of the rumors about him and Wei Yu, but now is the time when there is an urgent need for someone to help cut sugar cane, and the villagers often ask him to help.

When someone calls to help, Ding Yunfei will go to help, but when he goes to the field, it is inevitable that he will hear the villagers talking about him behind his back.Ding Yunfei is already used to it, he is numb, and his mouth grows on other people, so why not let others talk about it.Besides, this is also a characteristic of the countryside. The villagers like to talk about other people's family affairs when they are together, and any trivial matter that happens in any family can become the talk of the villagers after dinner. The villagers talked for three to five years before they stopped.

Ding Yunfei goes out early and returns late every day to help cut sugar cane. Cutting sugar cane is very tiring. When he returns home at night, he is exhausted. Although he is very tired, he will stand there blankly after dinner every night. At the door, I stand for a long time at one stop, and sometimes I go out alone, walking on the dark road alone, walking aimlessly, and often walk to the banyan tree at the entrance of the village involuntarily, and then stare blankly. The banyan tree, I look at it for a long time, and I don’t go home until it gets deeper and the dew is heavy.

The days are rushing forward day by day in the busyness, and it is the end of the new year in a blink of an eye. Most of the sugarcane in the village has been cut and harvested. Due to the flood this year, the sugarcane production has been reduced a lot.Ding Yunfei's sugar cane production has also been reduced, and he only collected one cart of sugar cane, which he sold for less than 3000 yuan.

The money from selling sugarcane is directly transferred into the passbook. Ding Yunfei looked at the little money in the passbook and was a little worried. The money still needs to be reserved for Ding Xiaoying to pay tuition fees and buy fertilizer seeds. There is not much money left, so what should he do to buy fruit seedlings?He could only think of other ways to raise money, and Ding Yunfei was planning how to raise money in his heart.

A few days later, it will be the Spring Festival. Since Ding Zhong and Grandma Ding passed away less than half a year ago, Ding Yunfei’s family still needs to observe filial piety, so he has not made any preparations for the New Year this year.Others' homes are full of excitement for the New Year, but theirs is deserted.

There are no activities in the village during the Chinese New Year this year. Last year, various entertainment activities were held in the village during the Chinese New Year. I don’t know if there is no one organizing this year. The village is relatively quiet.Not many people who went out to work came back to celebrate the New Year, and none of the people who just went out to work last year came back to celebrate the New Year.

Generally speaking, the New Year’s atmosphere in the village is not so strong this year. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the villagers started to go to work. Ding Yunfei also went to work in the fields and replanted the land in his vineyard. After looking through it, I trimmed the branches of the hundreds of grapes that survived last year's flood, cleaned up the pruned branches, fallen leaves, and weeds on the ground, and fertilized the grapes once, so that the grapes will survive the upcoming flood. The spring grows better.

That evening, he just came back from the vineyard. When he passed by the canteen in the village, the owner of the canteen stopped him: "Yunfei, I just had a call from you. It was from Zhao Xiaolin. He asked you to come and wait at seven in the evening." He called."

"Okay, thank you." Ding Yunfei thanked him, wondering why Zhao Xiaolin called him at the commissary, why didn't he directly call his home number?

Just as he was wondering, the owner of the canteen said, "Zhao Xiaolin said that you can't get through to your home phone, and that your home phone has been shut down due to arrears."

Ding Yunfei was stunned for a moment. He really didn't know that the phone at home had been shut down. He said to the shop owner: "Okay, then I'll go home first, and I'll come back later and wait for the call."

"Okay, you can go home and wait. He will call later and I will ask someone to call you." The owner of the canteen is very enthusiastic, probably because of the business, no matter who he is, he is enthusiastic about everyone, and he doesn't look at Ding with strange eyes. Yun Fei.

Ding Yunfei was very grateful, said "thank you" again, and then rode home.

When I got home, I picked up the phone and tried to make a call, only to find that the phone was really down due to arrears, and I don't know how long it had been down.When Ding Zhong was here before, Ding Zhong paid the phone bill when he went to the city, so he didn't worry about it.Moreover, few people call them at ordinary times, and they don't often call outside. This landline phone is basically not used, and naturally no one finds out that it has been shut down due to arrears.

He will go to the city to pay the phone bill when he is free someday.

Ding Yunfei said in his heart, went to the backyard to wash his hands, Ding Xiaoying and Lin Yipo didn't go to work today, and they had already prepared meals. Soon, Chen Sufen came back from work, and the family began to eat.

While eating, he saw someone calling him to answer the phone. Ding Yunfei quickly put down his chopsticks and ran to the canteen.

When I ran to the canteen, I saw a villager talking on the phone, and Ding Yunfei had to wait beside him.Because not every household in their village is equipped with a telephone, they can only make and receive calls from the public telephone in the commissary.

Ding Yunfei waited for a few minutes before the villager finished calling. After the villager hung up the phone, the phone rang again immediately. The owner of the commissary answered the phone, and then said to Ding Yunfei: "I'm calling, I'm looking for you Yes." Said, handed the phone receiver to Ding Yunfei.

"Okay." Ding Yunfei walked over to answer the phone and put it next to his ear, "Hello."

"Oh my God, it's easy for me to call you." As soon as the call was connected, Zhao Xiaolin's crackling voice came, "Why is your phone shut down due to arrears, and I can't get through after calling several times."

"I forgot to pay the phone bill." Ding Yunfei said, logically speaking, he should be very happy to receive Zhao Xiaolin's phone call, but he seemed to be smiling for some reason, there was no smile on his face, and his tone was very calm , without any disturbance.

"You're so busy, you forgot to pay the bill?" Zhao Xiaolin joked, then calmed down, and said after a while, "I heard my mother talk about your father and your grandma, sorry."

"Yeah." Ding Yunfei responded gratefully and asked, "How are you doing recently? What kind of work do you do outside?"

"It's pretty good. I joined a shoe factory and worked on an assembly line. I often worked overtime all night. He Wu and Li Bing and I came to Z City..."

Talking about the life outside, Zhao Xiaolin started to talk incessantly, and then suddenly stopped, and said falteringly: "I heard my mother say that you... you and Wei Wei... that... that... …is that true?"

Ding Yunfei didn't hide anything, and replied: "Yes."

"..." Zhao Xiaolin didn't speak, he was probably a little surprised, and said after a while, "Oh, I don't know what to say, the villagers must be pointing behind their backs, right? Why don't you come out to avoid the limelight?"

"No, I can't get out." Ding Yunfei frowned and said.

"That's right, it's true that your family can't get out of this situation," Zhao Xiaolin said with a sigh, "That's all right, you pay more attention to yourself, I have to hang up the phone, and I have to work the night shift soon."

"Okay, get busy." Ding Yunfei said, in fact, he wanted to ask Zhao Xiaolin if he had seen Wei Yao outside, but when he saw the owner of the small store next to him, and there were several villagers shopping in the store, he He hesitated for a while, but didn't ask again.

"That's fine, then I'll hang up the phone, bye." Zhao Xiaolin hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Ding Yunfei also put down the phone, paid the owner of the canteen for answering the phone, and left.

On the way home, he felt a sudden thump in his heart, thinking, Zhao Xiaolin has already called him, will Wei Yu call him too?Then you can't get in because the phone is down?

Sorry to keep everyone waiting.
