After crossing, start from the courtyard

Chapter 148 Chapter 139

Sitting on the green leather train, the sound of snoring resounded throughout the mountain. He Yu leaned against the window and looked around. There were lush forests everywhere on the mountain, clear mountain streams at the foot of the mountain, and clouds and mist on the mountainside in the distance. Lingering, the singing of birds seems to add a touch of fun to the mountain stream.

There is also a mischievous butterfly, which actually stopped on the train that was slowly heading to the distance. It seemed to be tired from the long journey, and wanted to rest on the train, settle down, and take a ride.

He Yu looked out the window comfortably, and sometimes looked at the beautiful woman beside her. Her state of mind was always balanced, her face was calm, clear and comfortable, and she seemed to be smiling forever. With a deep smile, this expression gives people a sense of peace and tranquility.

No matter how noisy and boring the train is, with Xiaoling around, everything in the world appears harmonious and peaceful.

The wind is blowing, the birds are singing, and the heart is shaking.Ease, comfort, and warmth accompany you to be happy together.

Country life, here we come.

"Xiao Yu, I'll sleep first."

Xiao Ling leaned lightly on He Yu's shoulder, and she could hear Xiao Yu's breath breathing in her ear, his voice was low as if he was talking to himself.

"Sleep, cry out when you're hungry."

"Ah."

Xiaoling's soft and waxy voice made He Yu's heart ache, and he turned his head slowly, looking into the distance.

I don't know how long it has passed, the sky outside the train has changed several colors. This time, He Yu was far away on the train, and his consciousness was all in the space.

Walking in the fields and countryside, everything in the space is what he yearns for, but something is missing, and his heart is a little empty. Every time he sees Chinese cabbage ripening, he is full of passion. He likes the scene of fruitful fruits, likes It smells sweet and fruity.

While He Yu was admiring the idyllic scenery, a muttering voice appeared beside He Yu's ear, "Brother, brother, let me sit down."

He Yu opened his eyes abruptly, and a young man squeezed in beside him. In this day and age, there are many people who escape train tickets. Unexpectedly, it happened to him.

The younger brother squeezed together and sat with He Yu. He was wearing a dilapidated overcoat and a red felt hat wrapped in rags.

It is estimated that this person suffered a lot of beatings for escaping train tickets.

Seeing the conductor checking, the little brother quickly tilted his head and leaned against He Yu. The sweaty smell from his body was particularly pungent.

Although the people on the train were messy and the smell was mixed, but after staying for a long time, he got used to the smell, but this little brother had a soil smell mixed with a unique sweaty smell, which He Yu hadn't gotten used to.

If it were someone else, he would have reported him earlier and thrown him out of the train.

Fortunately, most people don't like to meddle in other people's business, and it's his skill to sneak people onto the train.

He Yu pretended to be nonchalant, looked at the conductor who was walking towards him, and then looked away.

At this time, Xiao Ling, who was leaning on his shoulder on the left, moved, as if he was about to wake up.

The conductor was wearing a yellow uniform jacket, with a stout figure. He walked over and met He Yu's eyes. An ordinary person would not panic, because they were the ones who bought the tickets, and the elder brother on his right should be worried.

The conductor glanced at it and walked straight through the aisle.

At this time, the man next to him carefully looked behind him, and the conductor had already gone away, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then opened his mouth, showing his uneven yellow teeth, but he still couldn't hide his kindness of gratitude , "Brother, thank you so much just now."

The man stretched out a dirty hand, He Yu hesitated for a moment, the man noticed it, and quickly retracted it.

"I'm really sorry, I was in a hurry and forgot."

"Where are you going?"

The man didn't know if He Yu in front of him would answer his words, so he just asked very politely.

"Sichuan and Chongqing."

"This place is good, I will go there too!"

Touching the tip of He Yu's nose, he thought to himself that it's fine for this brother to rub against the train, he wouldn't have to rub against the seat. The sour smell was somewhat unacceptable, because he was afraid that Xiaoling would not get used to it.

Xiao Ling was born as a dancer, so she has never experienced hardships, let alone the smell of sauerkraut and fish. The place where she is is full of the smell of rouge and gouache.

"Brother, what are you doing there?"

The little brother didn't expect that the man in front of him was so approachable, and the more he was like this, the more he spoke vigorously, "I am from the Sichuan-Chongqing area. Everyone in our village is hospitable, especially the head of our village. Honey, we are still relatives!"

When He Yu heard it, it happened that although they were going to the Sichuan-Chongqing area, they didn't know where they were going, so they thought about taking one step at a time. The little brother in front of him now lives in this area.

"Brother, you and I happened to be on the way. Look, the train on this route doesn't know how long it will take. Moreover, the ticket inspector walks around for a while. You are always walking in the aisle, so you are easy to be caught."

"Xiao Yu, why did you catch me..."

He Yu looked at the girl leaning on her shoulder and said softly, "I'm talking to my friend."

Xiao Ling fell asleep again in a half-drowsy state, only then did he notice that there was a girl next to him.

"Brother, it's like this, why don't you take us into the village together? The two of us came from BJ and are going to go to the countryside to open up land and do planting."

My brother's eyes straightened when he heard this, and he saw that these two people were dressed in foreign style and looked good, so they should be from above.

"Okay, the roads in our village are not easy to walk, if you can really open up the land, we welcome you!"

One of the villages they visited was called "Longfeng Village."

The reason why it is called Longfeng Village is that the ratio of men to women here is not balanced, there are more girls and fewer boys. From generation to generation, there are more and more girls in the village. One more child means one more pair of chopsticks. Not enough to eat, so I can only rely on the mountains to eat the mountains.

When I am hungry, I can only eat some wild vegetables, dig some tree roots and chew, hug my belly, and give myself a comfort, I have already eaten, and I am not hungry at all.

According to He Yu's understanding, the elder brother in front of him is named Xu Erzhu, and there is only one old mother in his family. He is probably an only child.

He Yu also jokingly said, "It's good to be a single seedling, since everything left by the older generation will belong to him alone."

"Brother, why are you going out by train? Why don't you stay in your own village?"

The man was silent for a moment, and smiled wryly, "In our village, we don't make money. We have to go outside and work outside. We earn a lot of money. If you just stay in the village, the few acres of land are not enough, and the children in the family There are many, everyone hopes that their children will study more and get out of the village, so that they will have a future in the future."

"Besides, in our village, there are more girls. Girls, most of them can't do heavy work. They can pick manure and herd cattle. They are already capable! Some little girls are only this tall!"

As he spoke, Xu Erzhu made gestures. He should be about five or six years old.

"These children, as long as they can walk, they have to work with you, otherwise, they really have nothing to eat!"

"But you are the only child in your family, don't you stay at home to take care of your old mother?"

Xu Erzhu smiled, but he thought about it. The point is that he still wants to marry a wife. Although there are more girls in their village, most of them are willing to marry him, but he has long wanted to belong to him and is not very happy.

"Don't mention it. I can't make money for my future wife? If my wife gives me five or six children, I won't be exhausted."

"Isn't it good to have five or six children?" Xiao Ling was already awake at this time, and she was very interested in listening to their chat, so she asked in a low voice.

"Girl, you don't know, in fact, I am not the only one in my family. In fact, I have two older brothers and three younger sisters. I am the third child. I am the only one left in the family. In fact, there is a reason, because I was still young at that time. , My two elder brothers went out and never came back.”

Speaking of this, Xu Erzhu remembered the time when his three younger sisters left in the past, and it was very distressing.

"My three younger sisters contracted the disease and passed away. As for me, I was lucky. When I found out, my mother sent me away."

He Yu patted Xu Erzhu heavily, "Xu Erzhu, don't mention the past, it's all over! Now you are the only child in your family."

"So, in fact, having more children may not be a good thing. Everyone advocates having more children to carry on the family line. In fact, I don't think so. I don't think so. I think we have to be responsible for this life!"

For the first time, He Yu realized that there are also enlightened and transparent people in this era, "I think you are right, in fact, every life is equal, whether male or female, he is a treasure in the palm of your hand. "

"It would be great if our village could open up land this time, and develop into a place where everyone can live a life of food and clothing without worrying about food and clothing in the future!"

He Yu firmly said to Xu Erzhu, "Don't worry, with me here, everyone will live a life of food and clothing in the future!"

"Xiao Yu, I'm a little hungry. Let's go out, what food did we bring?" Xiao Ling's voice was very low, and the little one could only hear it when he got close.

Xu Erzhu came out of the countryside, his eyes and nose were sharp, and he could hear the loud noise of mosquitoes, so he hurriedly rummaged through his pockets.

After looking around, he finally took out an egg from the bag, and he handed it to Xiaoling very generously.

"Eat it, my boiled eggs are nutritious, homegrown eggs!"

The sudden kindness surprised Xiaoling, she took the egg kindly, took out another paper towel, peeled off the shell of the egg little by little, and put it on the paper towel.

"As expected of a person from the city, he is so particular about eating eggs! Like our eggs, knock them on the ground, peel them directly, and take one bite. Let me tell you, I eat eggs in our village. It's amazing, one bite at a time ! Don’t even drink water!”

Xiao Ling couldn't help laughing, "Aren't you afraid of choking?"

"What's the point of choking? It's good to have something to eat! In our place, eating an egg is considered a luxury. Most of them don't want to eat it. If you sell it in our small town, you can sell it for a few cents! "

"And the money will be reserved for my future wife!"

Afraid that Xiaoling would choke, He Yu suddenly took out a bottle of water from his cuff, and stared at Xu Erzhu in a daze.

"Brother, why do you put this water in your sleeve?"

"Xu Erzhu, please call me by my name, He Yu, next to me is Xiaoling."

"We don't like to be called by my first name. I want to be called by a nickname. It sounds more friendly! And you should be in your 20s, right? I must be older than you. If you don't mind calling me Brother Erzhu!"

"What do you think, girl?"

Xiao Ling glanced at Xiao Yu, He Yu nodded.

"Of course, I think Brother Erzhu is very good!"

"Then I'll call you guys from now on, sister Xiaoling and Xiaoyu."

I also think that Xu Erzhu is quite familiar, but he likes this heroic character.

"Okay!"

"You haven't said why you put the water in your cuffs? You don't want to drink it after warming it up!" Xu Erzhu couldn't help but make the people next to him laugh.

"Am I right? I'm from the countryside, so I don't quite understand it!"

"It's okay, I was created by magic!"

"Magic? You can also perform magic tricks. I heard people in the village say that this thing is a lie." Seeing that he said something wrong, Xu Erzhu said quickly, "Of course I am not saying that you are a liar. The main reason is that everyone is like this." Say, I think so."

When Xu Erzhu said this, He Yu was not angry at all, but instead explained the mystery of the magic to him.

"Do you think there is nothing in my hand?" He Yu slightly bent down and stretched out his hand, but there was nothing in his palm.

"There's nothing in here!" Xu Erzhu replied.

"Then, do you still have it now?" He Yu held his open hand again, then blew on it, and handed it to Xu Erzhu, "Are there any?"

Xu Erzhu shook his head naively, "There's nothing in here!"

As soon as the words fell, He Yu's hand opened, and inside was the lid of a water bottle.

Xu Erzhu seemed to have never seen the world before. He grabbed He Yu's hand, looked over and over again, and couldn't figure out why the water bottle cap appeared in his hand.

"You...how did you transform?"

Xu Erzhu's voice suddenly became louder, and the people next to him were startled and shouted, "Keep your voice down."

"sorry Sorry."

Xu Erzhu moved closer, lowered his voice, and asked He Yu, "How did you conjure this thing? Is this magic?"

"This is magic, it's just a blindfold!"

After hearing this, Xu Erzhu immediately understood that his eyes probably deceived him, "Your magic trick is really wonderful, can you teach me?"

"I can teach you when I have a chance."

As soon as He Yu agreed, Xu Erzhu said happily, "Let me tell you, those children in our village like to watch these things the most! If I change like that in front of them, everyone will probably call me a magician!" "

He Yu smiled slightly, and conjured up another bag of snacks, which was a bag of dried fruit, and he handed it to Xiao Ling. At that moment, everyone around him cast envious glances.

In the next second, He Yu conjured up a cake that was hardcovered in a box, and when he opened it, the aroma rushed to his face.

Xu Erzhu had never seen such an exquisite cake and this bag of snacks.

"You brought so much food when you came out?" Xu Erzhu couldn't help swallowing, seeing that he was hungry.

I didn't expect people who took the train to bring so many snacks.

"We only brought some changes of clothes and some money when we came out, most of which were food and drink."

"Those who don't know think you're out on a tour!"
