It's too hard for a green tea man to match him

If the wind in the north is like a knife, the wind in the south is like a knife soaked in water.

The location of Anhui Province is relatively central, and it is not really the south, but when winter comes, there is heating in the north, and the climate in the south, such as Guangdong Province, is suitable, and only the central region is stable.

Under the watchful eyes of the villagers, Yu Qiu finally withstood the biting cold wind with his back straight.

Shen Mingdeng stood calmly at the windshield, covering it for him, while Yu Qiu quietly moved behind his shoulder, carrying a luggage bag, and followed the crowd towards the village.

The villagers were very enthusiastic when they saw Shen Yingshan, and they also greatly appreciated Shen Mingdeng and Yu Qiu.

Many children in the village came to watch the excitement.

The place where they live is hilly, and the villages are all in ravines. The mountain roads turn and turn, and it is not convenient to get in and out. Even in this era, the information is not smooth.

There are many empty nesters in the village, or the elderly with left-behind children.

The children had little experience, and when they saw the majestic four people, they all thought they were the most beautiful people in the world. They all widened their eyes, and even boldly shouted: "Brother is so beautiful!"

Shen Mingdeng is very imposing, and some children are afraid of him, so they all focus on Yu Qiu, and most of them praise Yu Qiu.

Xiang Yan was prepared, grabbed a handful of candies from the bag, and distributed them to the children with a smile. The children rushed forward, and wanted to run away after receiving the candies, but the parents dragged them back and held their heads to thank them.

The scene is hilarious and funny.

Yu Qiu was infected by this atmosphere, with crooked eyes, standing in the sun, like a young white poplar in the cold wind.

Someone couldn't help sighing: "It's even more beautiful than a big star."

As long as he praised his children, Xiang Yan would feel comfortable listening to them, and the candies would be scattered more.

The village chief and others were very talkative, and they kept talking with Shen Yingshan, talking about the development and construction of the village. Shen Yingshan smiled and made comments from time to time, without putting on airs.

"The village has booked a table, and please invite Mr. Shen, Mr. Xiang and the two young talents to attend. Knowing that you are coming back for the New Year, everyone is very happy. You have been looking forward to it for several days." The village chief deliberately learned the language. His beautiful words made even Yu Qiu get goosebumps.

Kindness is difficult.

Shen Yingshan smiled and said: "Everyone is too polite, why don't we go home and rest for a while, and then go talk to everyone."

"You travel long distances, you should."

The homestead of the Shen family is still preserved. After Shen Yingshan made money, he demolished the old house and rebuilt a two-storey villa. It is not a high-profile one, and it is similar to many small bungalows in rural areas today.

Yu Qiu came here for the first time, and it was a bit of a novelty.

Before returning, Xiang Yan had asked someone to buy a quilt, but it hadn't been spread yet.

She put down her luggage and greeted Shen Mingdeng: "You and Xiao Qiu live upstairs, carry your luggage up first, and then tidy up after someone brings over the utensils."

Shen Mingdeng carried two suitcases by himself, took Yu Qiu upstairs, stood in front of several rooms, and asked, "Which room do you sleep in?"

"Sleep separately?" Yu Qiu slightly widened his eyes.

"Cough," Shen Mingdeng said solemnly, "Two beds have to be made, and the luggage is also free."

"Oh—" Yu Qiu dragged out a long syllable, "It's just for show."

"Ah."

"That's in the middle."

While talking, someone went upstairs carrying the quilt. It was the aunts in the village. When they saw the two of them, they laughed so hard that they couldn't see their teeth.

"Thank you, auntie, we can do it ourselves." Yu Qiu declined with a smile.

"Okay then, let's go down first."

The quilt, quilt, bed sheet, quilt cover, etc. were all available. Yu Qiu and Shen Mingdeng spread two quilts, and the village came to call for someone.

They are going to a banquet.

The banquet was specially used by the villagers to welcome the Shen family. The dishes were very rich, but the weather was cold, and the heat dissipated shortly after the dishes were served, and the soup was congealed with a layer of oily skin.

The meat dishes accounted for the majority of the table, and there were not many vegetarian ones. The dishes were more flavorful. Yu Qiu rarely moved his chopsticks, but he chatted well with the people at the same table.

Some people spoke their accents, and he couldn't quite understand them, so Xiang Yan smiled and helped answer.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm studying at Huajing University...ah, I'm still so young, I'm not in a hurry to get a girlfriend...you explain it to me, he loves to work, and I can't control him..."

The folks said with a smile: "You have raised two good sons!"

Xiang Yan smiled even more: "They are indeed good boys."

The people present had a lot of good things to say, but Xiang Yan's smile never faded.

After the banquet was over, Shen Yingshan and Xiang Yan stayed, while Yu Qiu went home with Shen Mingdeng.

The roads in the country are also paved with cement, which is much more convenient than muddy land, but from time to time, we have to avoid the excrement of chickens, ducks and geese.

Shen Mingdeng asked: "Aren't you full?"

"A little bit, but I brought some snacks and went back to pad my stomach."

Yu Qiu looked at the small mound not far away. The bamboo forest and pine trees on the mountain were lush and green, against the blue sky, they were extraordinarily high, wide and far-reaching.

He laughed heartily, "The air in the countryside is really fresh."

There is a hint of sweetness.

"What do you want to eat tonight?" Shen Mingdeng asked.

Yu Qiu thought for a while, "Is there any food?"

"You can borrow some self-grown vegetables from my fellow villagers. There should be winter bamboo shoots on the mountain. It happens that you like to eat roasted pork with bamboo shoots. I will dig some later." Shen Mingdeng had dug bamboo shoots when he was a child.

Yu Qiu's eyes lit up, "Fresh winter bamboo shoots! I'll go too!"

After the two returned home, they borrowed bamboo shoot digging tools from their neighbors and walked up the mountain side by side.When I met folks on the road, everyone greeted them warmly.

After walking a few steps, he could hear the voice of discussion behind him, which was not suppressed very low.

Yu Qiu leaned on Shen Mingdeng's shoulder, looked at the bamboo forest not far away, and suddenly felt very peaceful in his heart, all the troubles and hustle and bustle were blown away with the wind in the forest.

The afternoon sun is warm and pleasant, and it feels very comfortable on the body.

The road up the mountain is not easy to walk. Some withered and fallen leaves are spread on the ground, covering the protruding rhizomes. If you are not careful, you will be tripped.

There was no one here, Shen Mingdeng held Yu Qiu's hand generously, walked carefully across the rugged mountain road, and stopped when he saw a bamboo shoot.

Fragmented light spots sway with the wind, vaguely, as if whispering, under the Tyndall effect, the soft golden light is scattered in bundles between the branches and leaves, quiet and quiet.

Yu Qiu took out his mobile phone and wanted to take a picture, when suddenly a black shadow flashed, and he looked intently, it was a thin girl, carrying a dirty bamboo basket, with a shovel in her hand, walking out of the bushes.

Old cotton-padded jacket, face chapped from cold, messy braids, about five or six years old.The girl stood there in a daze, her big eyes twinkling in bewilderment.

Shen Mingdeng dug out the winter bamboo shoots and put them in the basket, and also saw the little girl.

He was not good at dealing with children, but he could also see the little girl's nervousness and apprehension, so he moved to the side and left a path.

But Yu Qiu bent down, put his hands on his knees, made himself a little shorter, and asked the little girl with a smile: "Little sister, do you know where there are more bamboo shoots?"

The little girl was silent.

He asked again with a smile.

The little girl nodded dully, stretched out her hand and pointed upwards.

She had just come down from the top, and there were many bamboo shoots there, but she was too weak to dig a few.

Yu Qiu continued to ask: "Can you take us there?"

The little girl nodded, her twisted braids trembled, and her disheveled hair danced wantonly in the sun.

Yu Qiu secretly sighed in his heart when he went to the mountain alone to dig bamboo shoots at his supposedly innocent age.

He took Shen Mingdeng's hand and followed the little girl, indeed he saw quite a few tender bamboo shoots.

There are few people in the village, and most of them are old people, so no one cares about these bamboo shoots growing wildly.

Shen Mingdeng easily dug out one.

The little girl couldn't help pinching the straps of the basket tightly, her big eyes showing envy.

Yu Qiu took a look at her basket, there were not many bamboo shoots in it, and some of them had strange shapes, obviously they had been dug up.

When Shen Mingdeng dug out another one, he held three bamboo shoots, handed them to the little girl, and said sincerely: "Thank you for leading the way, these are all for you."

The little girl subconsciously shook her head, but there was some struggle and hesitation in her eyes.

"You helped us, we thank you, take it." Yu Qiu directly put the bamboo shoots into her back basket.

Feeling the weight of the basket, the little girl froze for a moment, then smiled and rolled her eyes.

She turned her back to the sun, and the sun just fell from the branches and leaves above her head, gently stroking the top of her hair, her red face was like hawthorn fruit in the forest, which made people feel sour, and the innocent and grateful smile made people feel sad again. People are warm inside.

Yu Qiu's heart trembled, staring at the little girl's smiling face, a feeling of emotion suddenly surged up.

He wanted to record this scene.

With his needle and thread.

The little girl gradually disappeared from sight with the bamboo basket on her back. Yu Qiu turned around and hugged Shen Mingdeng, and said softly, "Don't you blame me for rashly sending out the bamboo shoots you dug?"

"It's to blame." Shen Mingdeng lowered his head and kissed his eyes.

"Why?"

"Punish you for warming your bed at night."

"It's not clear who will warm whom."

"What were you thinking just now?"

"I'm thinking, my world is still too small. In the future, I want to go out more, meet more people, discover more beauty, and record them with needle and thread, okay?"

Shen Mingdeng asked, "What about me?"

"You," Yu Qiu laughed, his eyes glistened like crystal clear gems, "of course you are warming me up."

"Well, don't run too far." Shen Mingdeng said.

"why?"

"I'm afraid you'd be too happy to think about leaving, so leave me alone in the vacant room."

Yu Qiu raised her head and kissed his lips.

"Then you go with me."

Shen Mingdeng hugged him tightly.

When they returned home, Xiang Yan and Shen Yingshan had already returned, and they were counting the New Year's goods with great interest.

"Why did you dig up so many bamboo shoots?" Xiang Yan asked in surprise.

Shen Mingdeng: "To pass the time."

Yu Qiu pursed her lips and smiled: "Aunt Xiang, I want to eat fried pork with winter bamboo shoots."

In fact, they wanted to stay in the woods for a while, after all, there was no one there, so there was no need to hide.

"I'll eat this tonight!" She immediately lost her opinion, "I'll take care of it now."

After her family got rich, Xiang Yan seldom did any work with her own hands, but the handicrafts of her youth were still there. In the evening, she cooked a large pot of fragrant winter bamboo shoots and roasted pork. The taste was so good that the four of them ate an extra bowl of rice.

After dinner, Yu Qiu took Shen Mingdeng out for a walk.

The night is dark, and there is only tranquility in the mountain village at night.The sky is vast, the galaxy is brilliant, and even the moonlight is brighter than the city.

Yu Qiu looked up at the starry sky.

His hand was tightly held by the other hand, warm and inclusive, that hand was like the string pulling a kite, no matter where the kite went, it would never lose its way.

"Shen Mingdeng." He turned around.

Under the moonlight, the man's eyes were incredibly gentle.

"Ok?"

Yu Qiu hugged him, his eyes deeply traced his outline, and there were delicate and long feelings in his eyes.

"I really like you."
