Chapter 41 Chapter 41

The group of people walked for an hour and a half and finally arrived at the destination. The surrounding gradually began to gain popularity, and the well-arranged houses surrounded the flat land into a village.

A creek stretches down from the top of the mountain, clear to the bottom, many children are playing in it with bare feet, holding nets to catch the fish and shrimp inside, laughter and laughter are ringing in everyone's ears. The feeling of "traffic in the fields, chickens and dogs hear each other".

It was quite late when they arrived. The village was full of fireworks from cooking, layers of thin smoke, and the mist that set off the village. Looking from a distance, there was an inexplicable beauty. The aroma is mixed with the smell of natural grass, so that everyone who walked for a day immediately felt hungry, and their stomachs began to throb, as if they were protesting.

The crowd followed the two professors Liu and He and walked slowly. Along the way, they received many curious and inquiring eyes from the villagers. They all turned their gazes to this side and opened their eyes wide, as if thinking about this group of well-dressed outsiders who came to the village. Is there any purpose.

It doesn't feel good to be treated as a special creature by a group of people. Not to mention the thin-skinned girls in the team, even Xu Qingzhou feels a little embarrassed. Maybe the only one in the group who doesn't feel embarrassed is a certain master.

After walking through a piece of Baogu land, I saw a group of people standing in front of me. There were quite a few men and women. At a glance, there were more than a dozen people with smiles on their faces.

When a group of people approached, a middle-aged man in the middle of the group immediately greeted Xu Qingzhou and the others, holding the hands of Professor Liu and He and shaking them up and down, just like the villagers who saw the Red Army during the Long March, mouth Still talking non-stop.

Xu Qingzhou was at the end of the line and didn't hear what a few people said. He was discussing with Gu Yao in a low voice with his head down. The black dog that ran past just now belonged to a male and a female. Xu Qingzhou felt that the dog's appearance and movements should be the same It was a male dog, but Gu Yao felt that the dog was having fun around another male dog, so it should be a female if nothing else happened.

The two insisted on their own opinions, arguing endlessly, and neither of them won or lost for a while.

When it was time to get to the exciting part, I heard Liu Wenming's voice from the front: "Qingzhou, come here, come here."

He was so frightened that he pushed aside Gu Yao's big head that was approaching him, responded, and hurried over.

Gu Yaopidianpidian ran from the front to the back, not to look at the back of a bunch of people's heads, he was planning to come and chat with Xu Qingzhou, seeing people leave now, naturally he didn't intend to stay at the end, walking The long legs chased after Xu Qingzhou.

When the two arrived, He Zhong and the other trainee teachers were talking with those people opposite, while Liu Wenming was talking with the middle-aged man just now. Judging from the expressions on their faces, they seemed to be from the old days.

When Xu Qingzhou approached, Liu Wenming stopped, looked back, and ignored Gu Yao, but just took Xu Qingzhou and brought him forward, and smiled at the middle-aged man in front of him, "Secretary Wu, what's the matter?" It's the person in charge of this activity of our Guizhou University, called Xu Qingzhou, Qingzhou come here, this is Secretary Wu Wei and Wu, who is now working in Bifang County, and he is also a graduate of our Guizhou University. According to seniority, he is your predecessor , If there is anything you don’t understand about this event, learn more from Secretary Wu, and I guarantee that you will benefit a lot when you go back this time.”

"Old Liu, what you said is exaggerated. At what age, you are still called senior. Secretary Wu, Mr. Wu, how comfortable you are," Wu Wei joked with a smile, "You should call Xu Qingzhou. I am older than you, and I will call you young." Maybe you have no objection, Professor Liu and I used to be in the same class. When he came to do an inspection last time, he praised you once, saying that you are handsome, have a good personality, and your grades are not bad. I thought he was bragging. When I met the real person today, I realized that I did not tell lies."

Xu Qingzhou naturally knew that Liu Wenming's personality was quite arrogant, and ordinary people really couldn't catch him. Therefore, it must be something special that Secretary Wu can get such a high evaluation.

Professor Liu's idea is to let Xu Qingzhou know more people and learn more things. Xu Qingzhou knows his idea, and of course he will not refuse his kindness.

He stepped forward, leaned slightly towards Wu Wei, nodded and smiled and said, "Hi Secretary Wu, I'm Xu Qingzhou, our Professor Liu has praised us too much, and we are far inferior to you in terms of knowledge and experience. Follow everyone to learn more and see more.”

After listening to Xu Qingzhou's generous and decent remarks, Wu Wei added a few degrees of favor to the young man in front of him, and cast a look of "Your student is good" at Liu Wenming, and won the latter's "You don't even think it is Whose student" expression didn't care, and continued to smile and said: "Your Professor Liu is still there, we dare not do it for you, but if there is something you don't understand, I can give you some pointers, and I will definitely not shirk it." .”

"Then thank you, Secretary Wu first." Xu Qingzhou is not familiar with Wu Wei, and he doesn't know whether his remarks are sincere, or he is acting out of affection, but he still tries his best to be polite.

Wu Wei, as an old fritter who had a lot of money in the officialdom, also heard Xu Qingzhou's politeness and alienation between the lines, he didn't think about it, he just thought that he was shy and restrained, and continued: "Tsk, look, I patronized and chatted with you , To the point of forgetting the business, you have been riding for a whole day, and there are no shops or restaurants in this place, you must be tired and hungry, Lao Mao, Lao Mao, come here."

"Here we come." Wu Wei called Lao Mao a middle-aged man with a dark complexion and a strong body in a modified Chinese tunic suit. Finding out that he is actually not as simple as it looks.

Huan, who was chatting with He Zhong, came over when he heard the voice, and grinned at the crowd. His teeth, which were obviously different from his skin color, looked funny, "Secretary Wu, what are you calling me to do?"

Wu Wei pushed the person forward and said with a smile: "This is the village chief of our Baini Village, called Mao Nineteen, just call him Village Chief Mao. Village Chief Mao is also very supportive of this event. Everyone has You can ask Village Chief Mao for any request, and he will definitely fully cooperate with this event."

Village head Mao scratched his head, continued to show his big white teeth, and said embarrassingly: "Thank you very much for choosing our village to carry out activities. The two professors can rest assured that our Baini Village will fully cooperate with the Qianzhou Municipal Education Bureau. activities, strive to cooperate with the organization's arrangements, obey the organization's orders, publicize the organization's philosophy, and promote..."

"Old Mao, enough is enough, people haven't eaten yet!" Seeing this trend, Wu Wei hurriedly interrupted, fearing that he would be able to utter a few hundred words.

"Look at me, I can't stop talking. I walked around. A few professors and classmates followed me. Dinner was prepared at my house. Everyone went to eat first, and chatted while eating."

Everyone sat in the car for several hours, and walked a long mountain road, and ate some biscuits and pastries, but they had already digested them during the excessive exercise, and their stomachs were already hungry, but now they heard that there was something to eat, Everyone gained momentum, carrying their luggage and following Village Chief Mao, the group walked towards the village chief's house in a mighty manner.

Although the economy of Baini Village is backward, the labor force is low, and the population is too low, it has to be said that the scenery is still good. The houses are made of blue bricks and stone tiles, with triangular cornices, clean bright windows, bluestone paths, mountains, forests, bamboo seas, chickens and dogs. It is said that around you can see women who have worked for a day and returned home after work, in groups of three or four, laughing and accompanying each other.

"This place is quite suitable for retirement."

Hearing the words, Xu Qingzhou looked sideways at Gu Yao, shook his head at what he said, and disagreed, "Wrong, this place is not suitable for the elderly at all, it looks pretty good, it's for foreigners like us People, the transportation here is inconvenient, the level of medical treatment is low, the entertainment equipment is low, and the infrastructure is low. You can live for a few days.

Gu Yao was taken aback, he knew that Xu Qingzhou's family background was good, and his financial conditions would not be bad, otherwise he would not have raised a decent gentleman, let's not say how real this gentleman is, but the surface still cannot be seen from.

Therefore, I didn't expect Xu Qingzhou to say such a thing, raised his eyebrows, and asked puzzledly: "Yo, Xu Caizi has experience, otherwise it doesn't look like he can say these words, isn't it?" Have you ever been in trouble?"

"Before my grandpa was admitted to university, his hometown was in a remote village where we were. When I was young, a grandpa passed away. I went there once with my grandpa. The scenery is really good. There is nothing to say, but there is not enough electricity and water. Rely on walking, communication depends on roaring."

Xu Caizi paused here, recalling it in his mind for a moment before continuing: "The most important thing is, can you imagine the kind of toilet that is dug a hole and made of several big stones, surrounded by two and a half sides, No ceiling, my mother, there is no place to stay, luckily, I can still feel the washing of the natural rain, I stayed for three days, and my psychological shadow came out at that time."

"Hahahahahahaha, I'm sorry I couldn't hold it back." Gu Yaole said, a miniature version of Xu Qingzhou seemed to appear in front of his eyes, with a cold face, standing in front of a stone house made of several big stones, wanting to vomit It looks pitiful without vomiting.

Xu Caizi didn't care about it either, and gave him a few cold looks.

The two joked with each other, and after a while, they passed the bamboo forest, went up a slope, and arrived at the village head Mao's house.

The village chief’s house is located at the end of the Bamboo Sea, next to the high mountain, and surrounded by blue bricks. It is no different from the houses of other villagers, the only difference is that it is a little bigger. When you step through the gate, you can see , the houses are located in the north and west, and the entrance is located in the south. It is a courtyard layout.

Five large round tables were placed in the center of the courtyard, and many women wearing aprons shuttled around. When they arrived, some dishes and soup had already been placed on the table, and in the middle was a big pig that was braised in red and oily. Hooves, a group of hungry people smelled it, and felt even hungrier.

After taking their seats, the students followed the rules and did not dare to move their chopsticks. They waited for the professors and the village chief to start drinking and talking and laughing. With a big wave of his hand, everyone was released from the shackles.

So after they were released, they opened their arms and prepared to eat. In fact, the meals in the village are some ordinary home-cooked dishes, such as braised pig's trotters, twice-cooked pork, steamed pork, steamed sea bass, garlic cabbage...they are not even worth mentioning. Not to mention the exquisiteness, I don't know if it's because everyone is so hungry and dizzy, or if the raw materials are all selected by the villagers themselves. They eat a lot one by two, which is better than what they eat in restaurants around the school. happy.

Several professors had to put away their image of being a good teacher in the school on weekdays, and finally relaxed. They came and went with Secretary Wu and the others to persuade them to drink. They didn't eat much, but drank a lot of wine. Xu Qingzhou and the others are young, just bury their heads in eating, and they don't disturb each other.

The sky gradually darkened.

The author has something to say:

small theater:

Gu Yao: Ah, Zhou Zhou, look, he is so weak and cute, how can we be so cruel.

Xu Qingzhou: Gu Yao...

Gu Yao: Pure and soft, non-aggressive, and full of sweetness in her heart.

Xu Qingzhou: ...

Gu Yao: No, I can't do it. This kind of thing is not done by humans.

Xu Qingzhou: ...

Gu Yao: I seem to feel that he is crying like me, he is begging for mercy, he...

Xu Qingzhou: [I couldn't bear it anymore, and slapped him] Can you fucking eat glutinous rice balls like cannibalism!

I wish everyone a happy Lantern Festival! !
