Fork in the road

After Bai Xiaoyuan got off the plane, he went to the reserved hotel immediately. After putting down most of his luggage, he carried a shoulder bag and was about to embark on a journey to find the unknown... No, it was the journey to find Grandpa Yu Xian's house. trip.

Of course, there was no problem with the previous bus transfer, but the key was the next half of the journey.

Although Bai Xiaoyuan has Aunt Hu's number in his mobile phone, he still plans to find out by himself.Anyway, it's still early, so let's treat it as an adventure trip!

It is said to be an adventure, but in fact there is no "risk" at all. It is just a toss along the way.After Bai Xiaoyuan got off the bus, he searched for a long time before he found a car willing to take him. It was a motorized tricycle, and he should only be able to sit in the back to pull things.

Bai Xiaoyuan listened to the old man's dialect, so he also used part of the dialect here - he learned a little when he came last time - plus body language, and after negotiating the price with the old man who was driving, he got into the car.He was still a little vigilant, and asked the uncle how long it would take to arrive, and then called Bai Xinhong, telling her that he could notify Aunt Hu that he was coming soon after a while.

Hearing someone pick up, it can guarantee your own safety.Besides, this Bai Xiaoyuan thinks this old man is quite good-looking, eh.

Part of the reason for making this decision is that Bai Xiaoyuan feels that he can't completely hide the news that he is coming, after all, he doesn't want someone to knock on his door without saying hello, at least give himself some time to clean up.Of course, Yu Xian is outside this range, but Yu Xian's standards are different from his own, so let the other party have some leeway.

Besides, Yu Xian might be angry with himself, so what if he kills himself like this and blows up Yu Xian's anger.

After Bai Xiaoyuan put down the phone, he felt that sitting in the back was a little boring, so he simply sat in the front and started chatting with the uncle.

This road went from a flat road to a bumpy gravel road, and the seats behind the three-wheeled car were not serious seats. They were Maza provided by the uncle, so Bai Xiaoyuan's buttocks suffered a lot.However, although he was a bit unhappy physically, Bai Xiaoyuan had been chatting with the uncle all the way, and he was always very happy. When he got off the car, he had already spoken some local dialect coherently—although it sounded awkward, but Bai Xiaoyuan Yuan has always dared to speak nonsense.

Bai Xiaoyuan was standing with her bag on her back... this is probably the entrance of the village?No, it can't be called a village either. Although they are all bungalows, they don't look like the countryside that Bai Xiaoyuan imagined.It's not that Bai Xiaoyuan has any prejudices, but because he really hasn't seen much of the current countryside.So he observed the house in front of him, thinking that his cognition might be wrong.

This should be just the suburbs, right?But it's too far away from the urban area, and on the way here, I saw crop fields... Bai Xiaoyuan was at a loss, and decided to call Aunt Hu while looking for it.

Before he could take action, he saw a person approaching from a distance.

Seeing that he had spotted him, the other party simply stood there and yelled to this side: "Hello."

Bai Xiaoyuan let out an "ah" and ran over cheerfully, "Salted fish! I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you so much!"

Yu Xian replied indifferently: "I don't want you."

"If you don't want me, I can think about you, hahaha." Bai Xiaoyuan quickly restrained himself after laughing, and said solemnly, "I'm really sorry if I came here suddenly and disturbed you."

Yu Xian looked at him with strange eyes, and said inexplicably, "What are you apologizing for?"

Bai Xiaoyuan stared at Yu Xian for a while, then slowly said: "Actually, you can ask the next sentence 'are you sick'."

I have seen cooperation, but I have never seen such cooperation.Yu Xian looked at him with a disgusted and helpless expression, and said, "Since you know it yourself, I won't say it." Then he turned and walked forward, "Stop standing here stupidly, go home first Say it again."

Bai Xiaoyuan let out an excited "Hey" and followed Yu Xian half a step behind, failing to catch up.

I always feel... Yu Xian is still a bit awkward.It seems that questions still have to be asked, and mistakes still have to be admitted.

Bai Xiaoyuan scratched his hair, put his hands in his pockets, and walked behind Yu Xian while tilting his head to look at his back.

Arriving at Yu Xian's great-grandfather's house, Bai Xiaoyuan looked around very curiously, and felt that the small courtyard looked quite comfortable.

There are a few green plants in the yard, and Bai Xiaoyuan can't help but think in his heart that it is indeed the south, is there an evergreen broad-leaved forest or something here... Bai Xiaoyuan, a science student, can't remember much about geography in junior high school Cleared up.

Seeing Hu Yue when entering the room, Bai Xiaoyuan called "Auntie", and then followed Yu Xian to the back room to find his great-grandfather.

When Bai Xiaoyuan saw the old man, he first sighed in his heart, "Yu Xian's great-grandfather doesn't look as old as he imagined", and then said "Great-grandfather"—in the local dialect. My uncle learned it.

Yu Xian looked back at Bai Xiaoyuan with a "what did you say" expression on his face, and Bai Xiaoyuan looked at him with an even more bewildered expression.

Learned wrong?Impossible, I have learned it several times!Could it be that the old man taught me wrong?

Yu Xian opened his mouth first: "Grandpa can speak Mandarin." Because he stayed here when he was very young, so he doesn't know the dialect here, and he always uses Mandarin when communicating with grandpa.

Two capital letters of "embarrassment" emerged in Bai Xiaoyuan's heart.What dialect are you showing off!

But Yu Xian's great-grandfather laughed, and Bai Xiaoyuan's embarrassment was relieved a lot.

Afterwards, Bai Xiaoyuan chatted with the old man obediently for a while, and when Hu Yue came in and asked him what he wanted for dinner, he realized that it was getting late and it was time to go back to the hotel.

After Hu Yue learned that Bai Xiaoyuan had booked a hotel, she was quite puzzled and was a little anxious. She persuaded, "Why don't you just live here? Although there are not many rooms, you can stay with Yu Xian! Wouldn’t that save money on booking a hotel?”

Bai Xiaoyuan smiled dryly and evaded: "Auntie, my hotel has been booked in advance, besides, I won't be staying for long, just a few days."

Hu Yue was a little surprised, and asked: "I thought you came to play with Yu Xian...is it worth you to come all the way to stay for a few days? Or do you have other things?"

...It's really gone, I just came here to look for Yu Xian.But it's not about playing, it's about solving problems.

Yu Xian looked at Bai Xiaoyuan, wondering why he came here.

Just because you know your parents are divorced?The person involved was himself, and Yu Xian really wanted to ask Bai Xiaoyuan: I didn't have such a big reaction, why did you fly all the way here?

But even though he hadn't seen him for a few days, Yu Xian really missed Bai Xiaoyuan a little bit.Even if he came, it was impossible for him to avoid him all the time, otherwise he would feel sad.Originally, I wanted to separate for a few days to see what would happen to me, but now I don’t need to be curious. I don’t want to be separated from him at all. The result of the forced test can only be that I may not be able to control my emotions when I see him again.

Fortunately, Bai Xiaoyuan is here now, otherwise this winter vacation, he might have done his mental work by himself, and then when he met again, he would do something stupid impulsively to confess.Although I have always been calm, it is not necessarily impossible to do this kind of thing.

And no matter why Bai Xiaoyuan came here, it must have something to do with him.The person he likes cares about him so much, Yu Xian couldn't help but feel some joy in his heart, and his complexion softened a little.

While persuading, Hu Yue helped Bai Xiaoyuan make a decision: "You can return the hotel if you book it, but if you go back to the city now, it's too late to get back before dark..." Hu Yue pointed at Yu Xian, "Today let him Accompany you there, and you two will come back together tomorrow."

Bai Xiaoyuan doesn't dislike Hu Yue's attitude of making decisions directly beyond himself. After all, it's all about caring, and Bai Xiaoyuan has never received much care since he was a child.But he thought to himself, it would be no problem to let Yu Xian come and stay in a hotel with him tonight, just to solve the problem of the two of them, but he will come back with him tomorrow...

How nice it is to stay in the urban area, where you can go around and have fun, this wilderness, why is he still coming back?Digging?There are no other entertainment venues except the crops, and no entertainment equipment except mobile phones!

Bai Xiaoyuan didn't think about staying here for long at first, what he thought was that he would go home after reuniting with Yu Xian?Why did Aunt Hu put herself here for a long time?Aunt Hu is at home every day here, so they can only study hard?

The questioning in Bai Xiaoyuan's heart finally turned into a nod obediently.

Yu Xian was also quite obedient, packed up his clothes for sleeping at night, put on his bag and went out with Bai Xiaoyuan.

It didn't take long from the time they entered the door to the time they went out again, and the two of them didn't even take off their coats, which was easy.

After taking a ride from the villagers to a place where they could take the bus, the two of them got off the bus.

Bai Xiaoyuan was chatting enthusiastically with the driver in the car just now, but Yu Xian didn't want to interrupt and had the ability, so he kept silent.However, Bai Xiaoyuan has also been working hard to talk to Yu Xian, constantly giving Yu Xian a sense of presence, so there is barely a harmonious atmosphere in the car.

Now that he got out of the car, without a stranger, Yu Xian was much more at ease, not to mention Bai Xiaoyuan, he was not restrained in the first place.

"We have to reverse the car several times, let's go." Bai Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "Hey, can I sneak away tomorrow, if I go back to your house, will I have to farm?" He said jokingly with.

"Even if you want to, you can't do it. Do you think you can farm? Also, don't try to sneak away when you come here, and study hard with me here. Apart from studying, you can also play chess with your grandpa."

"The arduous and glorious task of playing chess is entrusted to me. Well, Yu Xian, you are the successor of communism with the mission of studying hard."

Yu Xian touched Bai Xiaoyuan's temple with his fingertips, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "I think there may be something wrong with you here."

It's good that Yu Xian is willing to hurt himself. Before coming here, Yu Xian has been avoiding himself!Bai Xiaoyuan's whole body felt refreshed when Yu Xian complained just now, and he wished he could hold Yu Xian's hand and ask him to say a few more words, so as to maintain this state and not return to the previous indifference.

Bai Xiaoyuan didn't react excitedly in the end, he was afraid of scaring Yu Xian back.
