Vol 2 Chapter 2688: Shanshangzhuang

A girl who seemed to be 16 or 7 years old came out, holding two glasses of water, and handing them to Su Rui and Su Chiyan, there was a little timid feeling in her eyes.
After all, there are very few outsiders in this small mountain village. Su Rui and the others came here by accident when they climbed the mountains and traversed the mountains by accident.
"Uncle, where are we?" Su Rui asked while drinking water.
"This is the mountain village." The uncle smiled: "Because the village has been on the mountain, it was called the mountain village a few decades ago, and it has been called down like this."
"Mountain Village." Su Rui chewed the name, and then looked at the surrounding mountains: "It's also pretty."
If it weren't for taking the wrong path, Su Rui really didn't know that there was still such a comfortable mountain village in a location so close to the capital.
The smoke is curling, the birds are singing, and even the sky is much bluer than the capital city.
"Where do you come from?" the uncle asked.
"We came from the capital. We walked all night, ten hours, lost our way, and didn't know how we came here." Su Rui smiled.
Through conversations, Su Rui learned that this uncle’s surname is Zhao and his ancestors have lived in this mountain village for generations. The eldest son and eldest daughter have gone out to work. The younger daughter Tingting only went to high school. It happened to be home on the weekend.
This Shanshangzhuang really belongs to the territory of Yanbei Province. Although it is very close to the capital, it has become a forgotten corner of developed cities due to the inconvenience of transportation. It takes only two hours to reach the edge of the capital from here. , But it seems to be two worlds.
There is no traffic here, but there are beautiful mountains and rivers. It seems that the temperament of these mountains and rivers is different from that of the capital.
Su Rui and Su Chiyan both found it strange.
"You haven't eaten breakfast yet?" Uncle Zhao said with a smile, "Just eat some at our house."
The uncle was very enthusiastic, and Su Rui and Su Chiyan smiled and agreed.
After drinking several glasses of water, they also felt that they had recovered a lot of vitality.
Perhaps it is similar to "people are refreshed on happy occasions", Su Chiyan didn't sleep all night, and he was not too sleepy.
My aunt had already cooked the rice, the simplest pickles, white porridge and steamed buns, Su Rui was not picky, and Su Chiyan felt incredibly sweet.
For her, this kind of experience has been very rare.
Tingting was a little restrained and hardly spoke a lot. Su Chiyan asked, "Tingting, which university do you want to take the exam?"
"I want to take the school in the capital." Tingting said.
It’s not far from the capital, but she has never been to that city since she was born. Tingting has only seen everything about that super big city in a book.
"Oh, don't think too much about it. The schools in the capital are so difficult to take the exam. It's okay if you don't pass the exam. Go out and work with your brothers and sisters." Uncle Zhao said.
A stubbornness flashed in Tingting's eyes: "I will definitely pass the exam."
In fact, she is only the first year of high school, and there are still two years to go before the college entrance examination. According to Uncle Zhao, Xiao Nizi studies very well. Starting from junior high school, she always ranks first in the school year. However, the middle school teaching in the town There will be a big gap between the quality and those in big cities. Maybe you can only get one or two undergraduates a year. If you want to get into a good university in the capital, Tingting will have to work hard from now on.
"In the future, I will ask someone to send you some reference books." Su Rui said with a smile. He really likes this kind of motivated child.
In mountain villages, many people still don't realize the importance of reading, and feel that working a lifetime is no problem, but being able to arm themselves with knowledge will always bring a lot of different changes to life without realizing it.
"Thank you brother." Tingting said.
"What are you shouting? Uncle." Old Zhao said with a smile.
Although he said that his daughter should work as soon as she graduated, he was always proud of his face every time he mentioned that the little girl was doing well.
It is joy from the heart, and it cannot be turned away in the eyes.
Su Rui laughed: "You can call anything, Tingting calls my brother, it means I am still very young."
The whole family laughed.
Su Rui pointed to a few nearby houses and said, "Uncle Zhao, why don't I think these houses seem to be occupied by people? Is there less and less people in the village?"
Speaking of this, Lao Zhao sighed: "Oh, yes, after all, this is just a small mountain village. There are only a hundred households in total. Everyone wants to go outside. Many fellow villagers go out to work. I'll never come back...not even for the New Year."
Su Rui nodded. After all, living in this mountain has too many inconveniences. He can also understand the practices of these villagers. However, with the acceleration of urbanization, many ancient villages are destined to face " It’s not clear whether it is good or bad for this situation.
However, from the tone of Uncle Zhao, there is obviously some sentimental meaning in it.
"By the way, uncle, if we go back to the capital, how should we go back?" Su Rui asked.
"You have to walk for an hour, then wait for the bus to the town, and then from the town to the county, where there is a shuttle bus to the capital." Uncle Zhao said.
"So complicated?" Su Rui couldn't help but look a little hard when he heard this.
"It's actually more complicated."
Tingting said: "If you want to go to the town, there is only one bus every day, at 6 o'clock in the morning. If you miss it, you have to wait until tomorrow. Moreover, you have to transfer to the county seat when you arrive in the town. There is a train to the capital."
"What?" Even Su Chiyan was a little surprised.
To be honest, they rarely have this so-called opportunity to go deep into the countryside. They think that although this place is in the mountains, it is very close to the capital. However, the degree of traffic congestion here is beyond the imagination of Su Rui and Su Chiyan. .
The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help saying: "I think we should go back."
As soon as this remark came out, Su Chiyan's deep sense of anticipation rose again.
She just didn't want to go back. In fact, even if this mountain village is closed, it doesn't matter. At least Su Rui is next to her. With such a simple company, Su Chiyan can feel joy and warmth in her heart.
"Well, I think it's okay." Su Chiyan said with an open eyebrow: "You can take a day off, and then we will go back tomorrow."
Su Rui nodded: "Send a text message to the family to say something."
Su Chiyan immediately took out her mobile phone, but when she was typing, she hesitated: "It's just that we said we were lost, can they believe it?"
This pair of young men and women originally had some unexplainable and unclear relationships, and with Su Rui's sense of direction, it was almost impossible to get lost unless deliberately.
And get lost and get lost all night? Isn’t the cell phone out of signal, you have to wait ten hours before contacting home?
It's just trying to cover up!
Su Rui immediately reacted after hearing it, and coughed slightly, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you send this message or not. After all, we didn't go back last night and didn't ask at home."
Everyone feels like a mirror in their hearts. They are all smart people.
"So that's it." Su Chiyan nodded, then put the phone away and smiled: "This is just right."
At this moment, Tingting suddenly said: "Brother and sister, are you a couple?"
This question immediately silenced the atmosphere.
Su Chiyan's pretty face turned red immediately, and Su Rui didn't know how to answer.
After ten seconds, Su Chiyan replied: "No, he is my brother."
This is a very clever answer. Su Rui said in an angry tone, "Are you sure you are telling the truth?"
"Yes, you are younger than me." Su Chiyan blinked triumphantly.
Su Rui replied unceremoniously, "So what, it means that you are older than me."
Hearing the quarrel between the two people, the unidentified old Zhao family began to laugh.
They are very enthusiastic. After breakfast, they took the initiative to clean up a room for the two of them. Although it is a mountain village, the room is clean and tidy, and it does not give people any simple feeling.
"Do you want us to sleep in a bed?" Su Chiyan asked.
Su Rui looked at it and shook his head: "Obviously, people treat us as a couple, and there seems to be no other empty room in their house."
"Couple?" Su Chiyan's pretty face immediately turned red when she heard Su Rui say this, but she already had a faint expectation in her heart for what would happen next.
She was a little sorry.
After all, tomorrow morning, they may have to start again. The time to get along this day is too short. If the time to get along in this mountain village is extended to one month, even one year, I believe Su Chiyan will not I think there is something wrong.
However, Su Chiyan can only think about it, but from now on, this small mountain village will have another and more important meaning for Su Chiyan.
This is the memory of Su Chiyan and Su Rui, and this is her private collection.
Still the same sentence-the mountains and the sea are not level.
In fact, the conditions in Uncle Zhao’s family are pretty good. Both his sons and daughters work outside and send money back every month. Life is completely worry-free.
Su Rui and Su Chiyan came to the house today, Uncle Zhao also killed a chicken, then set up a big iron pot, and burned it with the firewood that was only cut in the morning.
Su Rui was not polite, rubbing his hands on the side, and said with a smile: "This is an authentic firewood stewed rooster, flaming smoke, you have a good taste."
"Thank you Uncle Zhao." Su Chiyan took a deep breath from the gap in the pot cover, and a touch of intoxication emerged on his pretty face.
