Chapter 698 Son's Daughter-in-law (7)
"Looking at the mountains and the tranquility here, do you think it is so beautiful?" Fang Zhiqiang asked Li Xiaoxiao.
"Well, yeah, isn't it beautiful?" Li Xiaoxiao asked back.
"For us, these are not beautiful, these are poor. Without the mountains here, our transportation would be much better, the economy would be much more developed, and life would never be so difficult. You know that for the people here Say, what is beauty?"
"what?"
"High-rise buildings, that kind of reinforced concrete world is beautiful. You know, before I walked out of this mountain to go to university, every time I went to my aunt's house to watch TV, I watched the outside world inside the TV How envious of the prosperous city? I dream of living in the city. That is my biggest dream. I think that is the world I yearn for. So, I studied hard, and finally, I was finally admitted University. It may be a very simple thing for you to go to university, but for us children in the mountains, going to university is a very difficult thing. Our teaching quality is not as good as yours, our The teacher can’t speak a few words in Mandarin, so just don’t speak English. In addition, you have to spend money. You know, our village, from ancient times to the present, I am the only college student, from this you will know how much it is to enter a university It’s difficult. But I did it, and what supported me to stick to it was a dream to go to a big city. I was not the only one who had this dream. Everyone here has this dream and dreams of being able to go. Life in a big city, becoming a person in a big city, yearning for the high-rise buildings there, yearning for the feasting and restless nights."
"However, for you people in the city, the high-rise buildings there represent pressure, and the feasting and greenery represent the noise of the city. You are more eager for the original ecology here, do you think this is a satire? Ms. Yang Jiang wrote in There is such a sentence on the title page of Qian Zhongshu's "Besieged City", I think it is very reasonable, she said: "People in the city want to come out, people outside the city want to come in. Whether it is marriage or occupation, life is about it. "Actually, let’s think about it carefully, isn’t life a siege? People inside want to go out, people outside want to come in, just like now, here is like a siege, people in the mountains are eager to escape and go outside The world, but you outsiders long for the life inside this besieged city." Fang Zhiqiang said leisurely.
"Life is like a besieged city, yeah, it seems to be like this. I don't love the person who loves me, and the person I love doesn't love me." Li Xiaoxiao said leisurely.
"Khan...You can have anything to do with love." Fang Zhiqiang was speechless.
"What's wrong, isn't it? I love you, do you love me?" Li Xiaoxiao said directly.
"...Okay, you won, I have nothing to say." Fang Zhiqiang directly surrendered.
"How old are these two trees? I heard that your grandfather's generation planted them." Li Xiaoxiao asked, looking up at the old locust tree.
"Then you ask me how do I know? Anyway, as far as I can remember, these two trees are here. They are so big. They will bloom in a while, but they will only bloom for a few days, which is very beautiful. Yes, it also has some fragrance. In summer, we all enjoy the cool shade under these two trees. It is very comfortable. These two trees also carry too many memories of my childhood and my hometown." Fang Zhiqiang also looked up at the tree and said slowly. .
The two chatted one after another. Fang Zhiqiang told Li Xiaoxiao a lot of funny stories about his childhood. Children in the mountains may not have a colorful childhood, but they must be happier than the children in the city.
I don't know how long the talk was, Fang Zhiqiang's father came over with fruit and said to Li Xiaoxiao: "Come and eat some fruit."
"Thank you Uncle, I can't eat anymore, I'm already full."
"Eat some fruit, come and have one." Fang Zhiqiang's father just stuffed Li Xiaoxiao an apple.
"Thank you Uncle." Li Xiaoxiao took it, and said to Fang Zhiqiang's father with a sweet smile.
"Do you want it?" Fang Zhiqiang's father asked Fang Zhiqiang.
"I don't want it, I don't like this."
"Smooth less." Fang Zhiqiang looked at the cigarette in Fang Zhiqiang's hand and cursed, and then said: "Well, at night, Qiangzi, you can either sleep with me on my bed or on the sofa. Xiaoxiao, you I slept in his room. Anyway, you slept there last time. I put on new sheets and bedding for you."
"Ah...Thank you, uncle, I can do these by myself." Li Xiaoxiao was embarrassed.
"It's okay. Talk to the two of you. I'll go to bed first. You can tell him if you have anything to do." Fang Zhiqiang's father smiled, and then went into the room by himself. Although he deliberately pretended that his feet did not hurt, he walked There was still a little limping on the road, and Fang Zhiqiang was very worried.
"Strong son." Li Xiaoxiao shouted.
"Well, what are you doing?"
"I...I want to take a bath." Li Xiaoxiao asked weakly.
"Well, take a shower, I'll boil water for you." Fang Zhiqiang stood up and said, preparing to make a fire and boil water to give Li Xiaoxiao a bath.
"No, it's not whether there is hot water or not, but..."
"But what?"
"But no... no place to take a bath?" Li Xiaoxiao blushed.
"Isn't there a bathhouse?" Fang Zhiqiang said, pointing to a few thatched and wooden houses on the side of the house. There are three thatched cottages. One is a pigsty, the other is a latrine, and next to the latrine is a bathhouse. It is an exaggeration to say that it is a bathhouse. In fact, it is just a place surrounded by branches and straws. The upper part is not sealed, and the lower part is also leaky. There is no door, just a piece of cloth to block it.
"Then...Which is the bathhouse, there is no light inside, and...there is no door, and...it's not sealed." Li Xiaoxiao said with a blush.
Fang Zhiqiang was stunned, and he thought about it carefully. It seemed that he had never felt anything. He used to bathe and wash like this since he was a child. Moreover, most families here bathe like this, but he thinks that the other person is Li Xiaoxiao, thinking that this condition is definitely unacceptable for Li Xiaoxiao.
"If you want to wash, I'll get you a flashlight and shine it with a flashlight. It doesn't matter if the door is not sealed, and there is no one. Don't worry, I will never take a peek. Besides, as long as you don't turn on the light inside, You can't see if you want to peek," Fang Zhiqiang said.
"No...I'm afraid, I dare not wash it." Li Xiaoxiao said.
"Then...then don't wash it, it will only take a few days anyway."
"No, I sweated today, and after driving for two days, my body is too dirty." Li Xiaoxiao was unwilling.
"Then how can I solve it for you? How did you solve it last time? Did you stay here for half a month without a bath?"
