In the dormitory, Yan Lie is packing up his things, and he will not be able to live here in a few days.The phone rang, Yan Lie saw that it was Lu Yuege calling, he answered the phone, "June, have you packed everything? When are you going back?"

Is it June?Nongzijian, who was facing the computer on the side, felt his heart clenched. He stared at Yan Lie. They talked for a few minutes until they hung up the phone, but no one on the other side mentioned him.

Yan Lie looked at Nongzijian from the corner of his eye. This guy kept moving his hands, and the screen was full of bible-like codes, as if he hadn't heard the conversation between him and Lu Yuege at all.

—These two guys have a problem.

It seems to have started since last summer vacation, it was so good before, what happened?

While continuing to pack his things, Yan Lie pretended to be unintentional and said to Nongzijian, "Why did this guy go to Guishi in June? Who is he traveling with at this time... It's not like his style, he has Didn't tell you what it was for?"

"I don't know..." Nongzijian's voice was a little hoarse, he was too uncomfortable.Lu Yuege came back, but he didn't make a single call, and he didn't reply to his two messages. How could he know what he did...

Is it too late already...

Nongzijian lowered his body in pain, staring at the screen with wide eyes, afraid that tears would fall uncontrollably.

Like so many times, Lu Yuege was traveling alone with a bag on his back and a suitcase.No, it's still different. This time it's a one-way ticket. The city is far away from the mountains. In the future, he may not come here again.

Chen Rongsong drove him to the station, and even Lord Lan Tang came to see him off, but Nongzijian never appeared.

He sighed and laughed, it's such a time, why is he still holding on to hope.Life is not a TV series, how could he appear at the station, saying that he also likes himself, and begging himself not to leave.

The train was speeding, and it was getting farther and farther away from the city. Lu Yuege looked out the window and said silently, Zijian, goodbye.

Nongzijian didn't go to see Lu Yuege off, nor did he go to work, he was lying on the bed, a big man, his eyes were red from crying.

It was still a day's journey, and the closer to the mountains, Lu Yuege felt more relaxed. He stopped the motorcycle, stood on the edge of a high valley, looked at the endless rolling land, took a deep breath, and smiled.

I am back.

Back in the stockade, I happened to encounter a pickup full of furniture stuck in a mud pit, and a woman and three and a half children were pushing the cart behind.

Lu Yuege stopped the motorcycle to help. He picked up a few bricks from the side of the road and put them behind the wheels.

"Thank you, June, men still have the strength, otherwise depending on how many women they have, I don't know how long they will be stuck here." The uncle who was driving threw a cigarette to Lu Yuege and said.

"Uncle, are you going to move to the county?" Lu Yuege asked, clapping the dirt on his hands.

Several children competed to answer him,

"Brother June, our family has moved to the county, and there are very tall houses in the county."

"There are a lot of fun things."

"Only a 15 minute walk to school!"

The uncle smiled and said, "Yeah, I'm finally moving here. The house has been renovated. Come to my house to play when you have time."

"College student, it's time to graduate this year. Have you already found a good job in the city?" The aunt who was holding the child in the back seat asked loudly.

Lu Yuege stepped on his motorcycle and waved to them, "It's good, Uncle, then drive slowly."

The fully loaded pickup truck slowly disappeared on the dirt road in the village, and another family left the land for the noisy city.

In the ten years since the beginning of the new century, more and more people have gone out of the mountains, in hotels, in factories, and even prefer to live in small rental houses under the bridge with air leakage, rather than return to this backward mountain village.

The village has declined a lot, there are fewer young people, and most of the people left are old people and children.Standing on the mountain and looking at the whole village, it should be the busy farming season, but it is inexplicably a bit bleak.

The sun has set, and Lu Yuege is staying at the grandma's house tonight. He is cutting meat and cooking in the kitchen. The grandma is smoking pipes and chatting with his aunt. Uncle Chen Qi, who took his parents out, came back a few days ago and organized another A group of people are going to work in their hotel. Older women can wash dishes, middle-aged men can be cleaners, security guards, young boys and girls can be waiters, passers-by, or help in the kitchen...

My aunt said, you saw that the group of people who came back from the New Year all became fat. They all said that the wages there are high and the food is good, so can they not be fat?

The same goes for your mom and dad. They haven’t come back for such a long time, and they don’t want to be at home...

Everyone in the village thought that Lu Yuege was very strange. He was a farmer, and he still had to go to some agricultural university. He came back to work every winter and summer vacation, and he didn't know how to find a job outside. …

Look at the kid from Huang Dapao's family in Xiaoniu Village, who said he majored in road and bridge, but he is rich, and bought two houses in the city when he was only 30 years old, and the most beautiful girl in the Meng family, listen Said to marry a big boss right after graduation, but the ancestral grave is really smoked...

While cooking, Lu Yuege didn't take these words to heart, everyone has their own way of life, no matter how prosperous the outside world is, right now, this is the only place he cares about.

Meng Renfeng had to take care of a large flock of ducks by himself, so he only planted a few acres of rice, corn and peanuts. Except for his own rations for a year, the rest was used to feed the ducks.

When Lu Yuege came back, he had an extra labor force. After they harvested the rice together, they immediately plowed the field and started planting the second seedlings. The seedlings were planted a month ago, and they can be planted directly after the field is plowed.

It was raining heavily, Meng Renfeng was picking up the weeds on the side of the field ridge with a hoe, while Lu Yuege was driving cattle and plowing in the field with a plow. His clothes were soaked, and the mud almost splashed on his thighs. On the face, there was a lot of stains on his face. He wore a straw hat on his head, his long hair was already wet, and his slightly long bangs were sticking wetly to his face.

A few people were grazing cattle on the grass not far away. Seeing Lu Yuege plowing in the field, a woman sighed, "What the hell is this kid thinking in June? After graduating from university, he returned to this ghostly place to farm. This book Didn't I read it for nothing!"

"Hey, who knows what the kids are thinking now, their parents want to run away, but he himself is nestled in this corner of the mountain."

"He has a predestined relationship with this mountain forest, and he is also a hardworking person. If only my son was half as good as him..."

Lu Yuege had heard such words too many times, almost everyone who met him would ask him why he came back, and he was not angry, he just casually said a few words every time and answered them with a smile.

This field is very large, with an area of ​​two acres and four quarters. There is no modern machinery here, and it can only be plowed back and forth in the field by people driving oxen and pulling plows. The field must be plowed into a muddy state before the seedlings can be planted.

Taking advantage of the non-stop rain in the past few days, they plowed more than five acres of fields near the river ditch to plant seedlings, and then planted two acres of peanuts.

It was the fourteenth day of the seventh lunar month. The brothers drove their walking tractors early every day, carrying hundreds of ducks to the county to set up a stall. They sold them for three days in a row, and a restaurant bought [-] ducks directly from them. Duck, the income is pretty good.

Walking tractors are becoming more and more inconvenient now, and they plan to change to a pickup truck.

Yan Yanping happened to have a friend who wanted to resell a pickup truck that had been used for almost five years. The two brothers went to see the car. The car was well maintained and performed well. The original owner made a small fortune to replace the car. , plus Yan Yanping's relationship, they finally negotiated a price of [-].

Meng Renfeng has saved tens of thousands of yuan in the past few years, all of which are used to repair the house and marry a wife. Lu Yuege spent a lot of time in university, and has always had part-time jobs. The salary in the pet hospital is also quite high, so There are also more than 2 yuan in deposit.Although Lu Baijing didn't want his son to stay in the mountains, but knowing that they wanted to buy a car, he still sent 5000 yuan back.

The two brothers each paid half of the money, and the owner of the car was Meng Renfeng. After going through a series of transaction procedures, they finally drove the dark green pickup home.

After returning home, they set off a roll of firecrackers, and Lu Yuege also tied red cloth strips to the rearview mirror and the rear of the car, and invited a few close friends to dinner at night.

From now on, they are also car owners.

During this traditional folk festival, they sold a lot of ducks. Originally there were more than 3000 ducks, but now there are only more than 200 ducks that lay eggs. They plan to buy another batch and raise them to make a fortune during the Chinese New Year.

One day, Lu Yuege went to the field to pull peanuts. Meng Renfeng and his cousin Lan Ying took a batch of ducks and a few boxes of salted duck eggs to sell in the county. When they came back, dozens of cages of ducklings and a few cages of soil Chicklings.

The pickup truck was driving on the rugged mountain road, and Meng Renfeng saw an off-road vehicle with a license plate from another province parked by the side of the road.He saw this car when he was on the road in the countryside in the morning. The owner of the car was a young man wearing glasses, who seemed to be traveling from other places.

There are several villages scattered along this road, and they are not very far away from their village now. It seems that the destination of this off-road vehicle should be these villages.

In recent years, the poverty alleviation in the village has widened the original mountain road to attract more tourists, but because the distance is too far, the situation is only better than before, tourists are still relatively sparse, and more people come in groups Adventure buddies.

The performance of the off-road vehicle is good. When Meng Renfeng got out of the car to solve the problem, the off-road vehicle drove in front of them.

The pickup followed the off-roader, Meng Renfeng was familiar with the road conditions here, and with the money he made today, he happily chatted with his cousin while driving.

He was thinking that although the off-road vehicle in front was a good car, his beloved pickup was more practical. The off-road vehicle in front braked suddenly. The distance of centimeters did not hit the off-road buttocks. Fortunately, they all wore seat belts in compliance with traffic regulations, otherwise their heads would hit the glass.

There was a grunt at the same time, as if something behind the car had rolled off a cliff.

Meng Renfeng was taken aback. He looked back and saw that a cage containing chickens had rolled out of the car and was hanging dangerously in a dry bush by the side of the road. The chickens in the cage were all frightened. , flapping its wings non-stop, Meng Renfeng didn't have time to get out of the car to save him, and watched a cage of chickens roll directly down the cliff.

Meng Renfeng was a little annoyed, why did he brake suddenly when he was doing well?It’s okay to lose a cage of chickens, but what if my skills are even worse and he is directly knocked off the cliff? !

The owner of the off-road car opened the door and got out of the car. Meng Renfeng suffocated, and shouted at the man in Mandarin, "Hey, brother, why did you brake suddenly? It's dangerous, do you know that!"

"Sorry, are you all right?" The man wearing glasses said sorry to him in Mandarin with no expression on his face. Seeing that the car and people were fine, he walked in front of his car.

This person is Mr. Lan Tang, he is on vacation during this time, and he has nothing to do, so he drove here to play at the address that Lu Yuege left him at the beginning.

The road here is narrow and curved, and rocks will suddenly roll down the mountain. If he hadn't braked in time, he might either be hit by the big rock, or rush down the cliff with his car.

Meng Renfeng was furious, is this an apology attitude!Is this man wearing glasses looking at the gentle and gentle man a dog's eye? So he also replied in Mandarin, "It's your responsibility to brake suddenly, pay me for it!"

Meng Renfeng would be furious now, speaking very fast, with a heavy accent, Mr. Lan Tang couldn't hear what he was shouting at all.

As long as the people behind are okay, he is worried about the traffic, and just wants to move the falling stone away quickly.

Meng Renfeng followed and ran over, but saw a large rock and several gravels more than half a meter in front of the off-road vehicle.He took a deep breath. Occasionally, loose rocks would roll down in this area. For such a big rock, it's a good thing that this person's life was not hit, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

So Meng Renfeng didn't care about it anymore, he called Lan Ying to come over, and the two of them went to remove those stones with Lan Tangjun.

"Are you here for a tour? Be careful when driving. Occasionally there will be stones rolling down the mountain." Meng Renfeng and Lan Tangjun worked together to move the biggest stone to the side of the road.

"Thank you, I'm sorry just now." Mr. Lan Tang adjusted his glasses and said, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and distributed one to Meng Renfeng and Lan Ying.

How can this person not be willing to smile!Meng Renfeng patted the dirt on his hands and took the cigarette, "Okay, it's fine, let's go."

"Brother, don't you want him to pay for our chicken cage?" Lan Ying asked quietly.

Mr. Lan Tang couldn't understand their language, after saying goodbye to them, he got in the car and started the car to leave.

"Forget it, he didn't do it on purpose, as long as he's okay." Meng Renfeng took a puff of his cigarette, then went to the back of the car to check the cage. The mountain road was rough, and he should have been driving slower behind.

Although that person looks cold and hard to speak, Meng Renfeng is naturally afraid and respectful of people who wear glasses, such as Yan Yanping and Chen Fuzhong. In his opinion, people who wear glasses are intellectuals and are great. People's teachers are smart people.

Meng Renfeng didn't take this incident to heart, and the next morning, the off-road vehicle drove to the river.

The car door opened, and my younger brother and the man wearing glasses came out. They talked while walking, and the man even smiled. Do they know each other?

"Tang Jun, this is my brother." Lu Yuege introduced to them, "Brother, this is my friend, Tang Jun, he came here to play."

Mr. Lan Tang raised his eyebrows. It turns out that this man with a heavy accent is Yue Ge's elder brother. It's really a fate.

"Do you know each other? Is he your friend?" Meng Renfeng asked.

"Yeah, how..."

"Yue Ge, he is the one who suddenly braked yesterday and caused us to lose a cage of chickens..."

"What a coincidence. We're all from our own family, as long as we're fine." Lu Yuege smiled, and said to Lan Tangjun, "You're not familiar with the road conditions here, so tell me when you come later, and I'll go out to pick you up."

Lord Lan Tang nodded.

Meng Renfeng didn't like this person very much, looking at him coldly, when Mr. Lan Tang went to pick up things from the car, Meng Renfeng and Lu Yuege said, "This person doesn't like to laugh, your friend, I'd rather compare myself with Zijian." Makes sense."

Hearing Nongzijian's name suddenly, Lu Yuege forced a smile.

It's a pity that I don't have this friend anymore.

Lan Tangjun and Nongzijian belong to the same company. When he sees Lantangjun, he will think of Nongzijian. He has not recovered from the pain so quickly. He even wants to ask Lantangjun about Nongzijian. things, but he held back.
