The antique shop of the rich fake master

Before Qu Qiuli set off, he said hello to his parents. He was afraid that his parents would worry about him going to the earthquake zone, so he just said that he went to archaeology with his teacher. In the mountains, the signal was not good.

But how did Lin Xiangyu know his current location?

Qu Qiuli thought, he and Lin Xiangyu didn't have any dispute between real and fake young masters at all, and they could get along as friends normally.

So just ask directly.

Qu Qiuli: "How do you know?"

Lin Xiangyu quickly called, "There was an earthquake here, why didn't you tell us that you came to the earthquake zone alone, how dangerous it is."

He scolded him as soon as he opened his mouth, but there was a smile on the corner of Qu Qiuli's lips.

"Leaving in a hurry, I'm afraid you will be worried." Qu Qiuli still explained, "Actually, there is no danger here. My teacher is leading the team, and there are people's soldiers protecting our safety. Don't worry."

Lin Xiangyu was a little relieved, "Are you going to stay on the mountain for a long time? Is it convenient to have meals?"

Qu Qiuli can't say how long he will stay on the mountain. Although there are enough people involved in the archaeological work now, someone is needed as an assistant.

And Qu Qiuli is playing such a role now.

As for meals and lodging, this really cannot be forced.

Conditions in the mountains were difficult, and several people shared a room and slept in Datong bunks; he was better, sharing a small room with Mr. Yin.

This condition is considered bitter, but the people's soldiers are really hard.

There was not enough accommodation, and they all pitched tents.

As for the problem of eating, there is a big pot of rice.

The archaeological work is so hard every day, and the mountain is dangerous, no one is willing to take over the job of cooking. Only the cooking team goes down the mountain every two days to deliver ingredients and supplies, and by the way is responsible for their three meals a day.

The few catties of meat that Qu Qiuli managed to raise during the Chinese New Year have all lost weight recently.

Qu Qiuli didn't answer Lin Xiangyu's question directly, but just blurted out a few words, and then changed the topic back, "You haven't said anything yet, how do you know my location?"

Lin Xiangyu smiled, "The place where I grew up is just to the south of where you took the photo. You took a photo of a signal tower, which looks familiar to me."

Qu Qiuli had a feeling that this was the case. He knew that Lin Xiangyu grew up in the northwest, but he didn't expect it to be here.

The living environment nearby, listening to the teachers chatting during this time, I understand more or less.

It is indeed very difficult. I heard that it takes an hour or two to walk the mountain road to the town to go to school.

I don't know how Lin Xiangyu persisted when he was a child.

The two chatted for a while, the archaeological site got busy, and Qu Qiuli was summoned over again.

But what he didn't expect was that two hours later, a soldier brother came to him and said that someone had come to see him.

The archaeological site is naturally protected in all directions, and ordinary people cannot enter at will.

Qu Qiuli was still wondering, who would come here to look for him in the deep mountains and old forests?I'm afraid I found the wrong person?

He was stunned until he saw Lin Xiangyu standing outside the isolation line with big bags and small bags.

He and Lin Xiangyu hung up the phone for more than two hours. Even if Lin Xiangyu flew over from Anshi, it couldn't be so fast, right?

"Brother, why are you here?" Qu Qiuli hurried forward.

Lin Xiangyu smiled, "Didn't I tell you, I grew up here when I was a child. I just came back yesterday and I had to do something. I just saw you posting on Moments. I came to see you."

Qu Qiuli nodded, and looked at Lin Xiangyu's attire. It was not as neat as when he was in Anshi, but now he was relaxed and messy.

"This is for you to eat." Lin Xiangyu handed him the food, "I don't think it's good to eat in the mountains. I collected some agricultural and sideline products for you from my fellow villagers, and they are not bad. Try it?"

When Lin spoke to Yu, he was a little cautious. In his eyes, Qu Qiuli was noble, and he usually ate carefully, chewing slowly, and he didn't know if he could get used to these agricultural and sideline products.

When he was on the phone, he asked Qu Qiuli how he was eating and living here. Qu Qiuli didn't answer directly, so he already had a guess, so he went out to collect these things and delivered them quickly.

He suddenly wanted to ask himself why he did this.

I can't find the reason, but it can only be attributed to his Qu Qiuli's family.

Qu Qiuli was so moved that his heartbeat was irregular, really.

It's hard to say what kind of feeling this is. He is not afraid of hardship. Before coming here, he anticipated the difficulties of the archaeological site and prepared for it.

However, such a person suddenly appeared now, and he traveled all over the mountains just to give him some souvenirs.

Souvenirs are a bit heavy, but perhaps not only the souvenirs are heavy.

"Would you like to go in with me?" Qu Qiuli was carrying something, thinking of taking Lin Xiangyu on a tour. Ordinary people would be interested in archeology.

Maybe it was engraved in the DNA of the Chinese people?

Sure enough, Lin Xiangyu's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this.

However, this kind of place does not allow outsiders to enter casually, and he asked again: "Will it cause you trouble?"

"No, just make a registration." Qu Qiuli looked at the soldier who was standing guard at the side, "Brother, please trouble me, this is my brother, come and give me something."

Brother Bing's dark face was full of smiles. It's not that there were no young people joining the archaeological work during this period of time, but it was the best-looking young man who worked the hardest.

Just like them, like a brick, it can be moved wherever it is needed, but the key people have never cried out that they are tired.

Brother Bing took out the registration book, "You brothers have such a good relationship, go ahead, just remember to come out when the time comes."

In Lin Xiangyu's childhood, this mountain was his playmate, and he often played wild in the mountain, hunting hares, picking mushrooms, but this was the first time he saw such a scene in the mountain.

It seems that there are potholes everywhere, but after a closer look, it seems that there is a pattern to be found.

Seeing that he was interested, Qu Qiuli introduced to him: "These pits are based on the age of the ancient tombs, and then according to the documents and materials, as well as the ancient tombs that have been excavated. or landslide..."

He spoke in great detail, and Lin Xiangyu listened carefully.

This is on the mountain, and large machinery cannot come up, so it is basically by manpower.

Lin Xiangyu looked at it and felt a little distressed. Their family, Ali, didn't let him do anything when he was at home, but he didn't expect to dig the soil with a shovel when he came to do some ancient research.

He knows that the land on this mountain is so hard that if you shovel it down, your hands may be numb.

But he knows these careers that Qu Qiuli loves, and he will not persuade Qu Qiuli to give up or anything. He just silently thinks about how to improve Qu Qiuli's current life.

He thought for a while, "How long do you think you will be working here?"

"It's really countless." Qu Qiuli said, "I'm a non-staff member now, and I'm talking about my mentor's assistant, so..."

He wasn't quite sure either.

Mr. Yin originally had an assistant, but he was injured in the earthquake, and he is still being treated. It is estimated that he will have to wait for the real assistant to go up the mountain before he can leave.

However, he didn't really want to leave that much.

Mr. Yin has been telling him recently that this ancient tomb is predestined for him. Once he came, the archaeological work went very smoothly, even the weather was fine.

Moreover, he himself actually wanted to witness the owner of this ancient tomb, and wanted to know the story behind this ancient tomb.

Lin Xiangyu didn't speak, he didn't know what he was planning.

Qu Qiuli thought for a while, "What about you? Come here for business? How long will you be staying?"

"There is no urgent matter in the company now. Dad arranged for me an online teacher, so I am not in a hurry to go back. I haven't come back for a long time." Lin Xiangyu replied.

Now what my father means is to let him learn everything he needs to learn first, and then enter the company, and send Lin's father's assistant to start as an assistant, and gradually become familiar with him step by step.

Qu Qiuli nodded, he didn't know what to say.

It stands to reason that this place is the place where Lin Xiangyu suffered, but he still saw a little nostalgia in Lin Xiangyu's eyes.

There is nothing wrong with thinking about it carefully. After all, I have lived here for so many years, and I have more or less my own memories.

The two chatted for a while, and Qu Qiuli took Lin Xiangyu to have a big pot meal.

Lin Xiangyu is quite satisfied, this big pot of rice is much better than he imagined, so he can save these agricultural and sideline products for occasional tooth-making sacrifices.

After sending Lin Xiangyu away, Qu Qiuli took out the things he sent and tidied them up.

There are air-dried meat, sausages, bacon, dried mushrooms, and eighty native eggs in rice bowls.

Qu Qiuli laughed, the meat and dried mushrooms are fine, what happened to these eighty eggs?

Let’s not talk about how dangerous it is to bring eggs up the mountain, bumps and bumps, maybe they will be broken halfway, and the gain outweighs the loss.

Just talking about these eighty eggs, I don't know how many houses Lin Xiangyu ran to collect so many.

You know, in rural areas, each family raises two or three chickens, and basically the whole family consumes almost all of them, and it is difficult to save ten or twenty chickens.

His fake big brother really has a heart.

"A Li, your local products are not bad." After Mr. Yin returned to his room, he had a teasing look on his face, "I just heard from them that there is a handsome guy who traveled thousands of miles to deliver things to you."

Why is this saying something wrong?Feeling too ambiguous?

Qu Qiuli smiled helplessly, "It's not such an exaggeration, the family is on the other side of the mountain."

Elder Yin raised his eyebrows, "According to what you young people said, your cabbage was beaten by a pig?"

He has lived such an old age and has never seen anything. Love should be the most tolerated emotion in the world. It is about morality, but has nothing to do with gender.

For some reason, Qu Qiuli's face turned hot, and he explained: "That's my brother, the son of the Lin family."

After speaking, he forcibly explained his relationship with the Lin family.

Elder Yin looked at Qu Qiuli's expression, thoughtful, and in the end, he said nothing surprising: "You are not in the same household registration book, are you?"

Qu Qiuli: "...?"

Of course, it was not in a household registration book. Lin's father and Lin's mother proposed to adopt him, but he refused, so his household registration was in an orphanage until he was a minor.

So he is the only one in his household registration book.

A thin book.

It is also a bit sentimental to say.

Mr. Yin didn't ask any more questions, but he had a godlike expression on his face, and even glanced at the pile of local specialties from time to time.

He is either greedy, or he has been in the mountains for a long time, and he always wants to eat something else to adjust his taste.

Qu Qiuli understood, "I don't know how to cook, how about I cook you two hard-boiled eggs?"

This can be cooked in a kettle.

Mr. Yin smacked twice, "All right."

It seems to be quite reluctant.

Qu Qiuli was helpless, this little old man really is.

After cooking eggs for Mr. Yin, Qu Qiuli divided the pile of local specialties into two parts, keeping one part for himself first, and he was going to bring the other part to the kitchen for everyone to taste together.

It's not easy to eat alone, and he is young, and everyone usually takes care of him.

"Brother Qu, what do you want to eat?" The veteran of the cooking class took the food with a smile, and took a look, "You are all good things."

The vegetables and meat they usually eat are also prepared at the base at the foot of the mountain, and they go down to carry them every two or three days.

Although it is not unpalatable, nothing compares to well-cooked food.

"You can make it as you see it." Qu Qiuli said, "Let's make it tonight, let everyone try it."

There are not many things, and everyone can have a taste.

"okay!"

In the afternoon, as soon as everyone finished work, they smelled a strange fragrance, which made everyone want to come out.

Those who just went up the mountain were okay, but the group of people who went up the mountain at the very beginning were almost drooling.

"What's for dinner tonight?" someone asked.

"I can smell the aroma of fried bacon with garlic sprouts."

"No, it's obviously the smell of stewed pork ribs."

……

On the cooking team side, a pot was specially prepared today, just to cook the ingredients that Qu Qiuli sent over.

Although it is not as good as the taste of the restaurant, it is more than a notch higher than the usual big pot rice.

"Little Qu." The big brother who cooked specially left a big bowl of each dish for Qu Qiuli, "You take it back and eat slowly by yourself."

Although it is a good habit to love to share, after all, it is the ingredients brought by others, so you can’t be like others, and you will end up eating two chopsticks.

The big brother who cooks still has selfish intentions, he wants to feed this handsome guy more and gain weight.

Qu Qiuli didn't refuse either, and took back Mr. Yin's meal together. The old and the young ate these few dishes to their stomachs and were completely satisfied.

There are still some ingredients left in the house, Qu Qiuli thought, he and Mr. Yin have two eggs every day, and the remaining ingredients will be cooked in a few days, and everyone will eat together.

But before he contributed ingredients for the second time, Lin Xiangyu came again with big and small bags on his back.

"Brother." Qu Qiuli answered the phone ahead of time, and now he is waiting at the exit. From a long distance, he saw that Lin Xiangyu was covered with things, more than last time.

He quickly opened the cordon, trotted over, and helped Lin Xiangyu share a few bags.

"Why did you send so much again?" Qu Qiuli said, "I'm fine here, I haven't finished eating what you sent last time."

Lin Xiangyu smiled, "Except for the eggs, everything else should be pretty much the same, right?"

Qu Qiuli said embarrassingly: "If you come a day late, it must be gone, and now there are."

Lin Xiangyu knew that Qu Qiuli's character would never eat alone, so he took advantage of these few days to quickly collect some from the villagers.

"Brother, I think these local products taste pretty good." Qu Qiuli led Lin Xiangyu inside, and asked casually, "Did you send it to your parents?"

Lin Xiangyu was stunned for a moment. In fact, he thought about sending it, but his parents only knew that he was going to do some business and would be away for a while, but they didn't know that he was coming back here.

He could feel his parents' rejection of this place, and he could understand it.

In fact, his feelings for this place are also very complicated. The old man who raised him was not the family who bought him, but the family who bought him lived on the other side of the mountain.

At the beginning, he was just sold here, a charming young master, his life plummeted, he was unfamiliar with the place, noisy and rowdy, refused to eat, wanted to run every day, and suffered a lot of beatings.

Then one day, the family was hit by a car when they were going out. One was seriously injured and the other was disabled.

Then he was picked up by the widowed old man, and he couldn't remember who he was when he woke up.

The widowed old man originally had a family member, but he died outside when he went out to work.

It's a poor man.

So when the old man saw that he didn't remember anything, he had a bad idea, lied to him that he was his grandson, and wanted to keep him for his retirement.

In fact, when he was in middle school, he knew that the old man was not his own grandfather, but he only half-joked, half-knowledge, and felt that the family that bought him was his own.

So at that time, he thought that since that family had lost him, it was impossible for him to go back. A man must have a backbone, so he never thought of climbing a mountain to find that family.

It wasn't until last year that the old man died of old age, and he didn't tell him the truth before he died.

Seeing his silence, Qu Qiuli immediately reacted, "It doesn't matter if you don't send it, I just think it tastes good, and I want them all to taste it."

However, he doesn't know if his parents who have pampered him for decades can get used to it.

Maybe this is family affection. When I eat delicious food, I always think that my parents have never eaten it, and I want to bring it to them to taste.

"You can send it for me." Lin Xiangyu said after thinking about it, "When the time comes, say that you collected it from the villagers in the mountains on the archaeological side, let alone that it was sent by me."

After he came back this time, he got things done, and he probably won't come back in the future. He knows where his home is, and he's from the Lin family.

Qu Qiuli was silent for a while, but still agreed.

The two brothers didn't continue this topic. Lin Xiangyu thought that Qu Qiuli couldn't cook anyway, so he simply carried the things to the kitchen.

"Brother." Lin Xiangyu said with a simple and honest face, "My brother eats here, so you usually take care of him. You can cook the food as you see fit."

The eldest brother smiled and agreed. He also tasted a few chopsticks for the meal a few days ago. go home and eat.

Qu Qiuli has an older brother, and he came to give him souvenirs again, and the news spread like wildfire.

Everyone is looking forward to today's meal.

"A Li." Elder Yin was carrying a tool bag, "Go down the mountain with your brother today, your brother Wang will go up the mountain this afternoon."

Brother Wang is Mr. Yin's assistant. He has been with Mr. Yin for many years, and he is more than ten years older than Qu Qiuli.

Qu Qiuli didn't really want to leave, "I'll save it and wait until the identity of the owner of the cemetery is confirmed."

Elder Yin smiled, "I didn't let you go back to Anshi, I just gave you a vacation, let you rest for a few days, so you can go down the mountain to rest."

In this mountain, everything else is manageable, but there is no running water, and it is inconvenient to take a bath.

These days, Qu Qiuli can only wash his hair with a small basin of water, and he can only wash his hair once every few days. He feels disgusted by himself.

The thought of taking a quick bath made his heart move.

After thinking about it, Qu Qiuli finally compromised, "That's fine, I'll go down the mountain in the afternoon, and I'll be back in two days, when the time comes, I'll change shifts with my brother."

"Don't worry, take a good rest for a few days, and if something happens here, I'll call you again." Boss Yin waved his hand and made the decision for him, "When you stay in a hotel, remember to issue an invoice and bring it back for reimbursement. "

Qu Qiuli nodded with a smile.

At noon, Lin Xiangyu had dinner with everyone, and he was well received by everyone, saying that he loved his younger brother, that he was handsome, and that he was young and promising.

Lin Xiangyu blushed so much that he asked Qu Qiuli for help from time to time.

Qu Qiuli was insanely happy, why didn't he know that the fake big brother was still so innocent?

Still can't boast?

Having said that, his fake big brother will be 27 years old this year, and he doesn't know if he has been in a relationship before, or what kind of partner he will look for in the future.

I don't know why, but when he thinks of this, he feels uncomfortable, as if... he finally has an older brother to protect him from the wind and rain, and his sister-in-law will take away this concern in the future.

Qu Qiuli shook his head, threw away this inexplicable thought, and rescued the fake elder brother: "Don't talk about him, if he is embarrassed, I won't give you food next time .”

Everyone immediately changed the subject and praised Qu Qiuli instead.

Lin Xiangyu grinned, his big white teeth all showing in a smile.

Qu Qiuli: "..." Does Feng Shui take turns?Why does his fake big brother still have the potential to be dark-bellied?

Fortunately, they left after dinner, and everyone was busy, and Qu Qiuli was going back to his room to pack up his things and go down the mountain.

Lin Xiangyu cleaned up with him, and asked tentatively, "If you don't mind, come back and live with me, I'm the only one over there."

His idea was that even the best hotel in the town was dilapidated, and he didn't know if the sheets and quilts were clean enough, so it was better to go back to the village with him.

At least he kept the house in the village clean, and he was able to take care of A Lide's three meals a day.

Apparently Qu Qiuli also thought of this, "Alright then, I'll go back with you."

Coincidentally, he also took a look at the environment where Lin Xiangyu grew up for his parents.

Lin Xiangyu was happy, and took the initiative to carry Qu Qiuli's bag on his body, "I am strong, and the road down the mountain is difficult, so I will carry it."

After speaking, he was afraid that Qu Qiuli would refuse, so he ran away with his bag on his back.

Qu Qiuli looked at his back in the mountains as if walking on the ground, and once again felt emotional in his heart, having an older brother, this feeling is really good.

To go back to the village where Lin Xiangyu grew up, there was no need to go down the mountain, and he changed to another mountain road halfway.

"This road feels much easier to walk." Qu Qiuli looked at the one-way cement road.

Lin Xiangyu led the way, "It used to be a dirt road. When I was a child, I went to school, especially on rainy days. My legs were covered in mud when I walked. At that time, I swore that I would make money to build roads when I grow up."

"You built this road?" Qu Qiuli asked in surprise.

Lin Xiangyu shook his head, "I only donated part of it, and the rest were raised by nearby villages, and then the government gave another sum of money to repair."

At that time, his career had just started and he didn't have much money.

Furthermore, even though he knew at that time that he was not the grandson of the old man, the old man treated him well.

When he was in high school, the old man sold the cow to him to pay for his tuition. Later, he started a business in other places. The old man didn't want to go out of the mountain, so he thought, repairing the road would make it easier for the old man to go to the market.

To be honest, his feelings for the old man are actually very complicated.

If the old man had picked him up on the mountain and sent him directly to the police station, maybe he would have been able to reunite with his parents then.

However, if the old man hadn't picked him up, he would have been eaten by the jackals in the mountains.

Human nature is always the most complicated thing.

After walking for more than an hour, I finally saw a small village.

"It's right in front." Lin Xiangyu pointed to a small bungalow, "That's where I live."

As he spoke, he froze suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Qu Qiuli thought, it's a bit broken, as long as it can live in people, it's enough to let him take a bath.

Lin Xiangyu scratched the back of his head, "I forgot, there is only one kang at home."

After speaking, he pointed to the ruins on the other side, "There used to be three rooms, but this earthquake collapsed."

The room that didn’t collapse was a small red brick one-story house that was repaired later, while the one that collapsed was all old adobe houses.

Qu Qiuli was also stunned.

"Cough." Lin Xiangyu said embarrassingly, "You can just sleep at home, and I will go to the fellow's house to stay for a few days."

Qu Qiuli didn't say yes, but he didn't say bad either, "Let's go and have a look first."

Entering the village, there are appreciating eyes everywhere.

Qu Qiuli felt a little uncomfortable.

"Sorry, I didn't think it through." Lin Xiangyu said embarrassingly, "Why don't you go back to the house and rest for a while, and I will send you down the mountain to the town later."

Qu Qiuli shook his head, "No need."

Come here.

Going down the mountain, the environment might not be as good as here.

When he got home, Lin Xiangyu directly took him into the red brick bungalow, "Look here, can you get used to it? If you can, I'll go to a fellow villager's house to borrow. If not, I'll send you down the mountain."

Qu Qiuli saw that the kang was quite big, more than two meters long, much better than his archaeological accommodation, and it was well tidied up.

How could he be so hypocritical, how could he be so coquettish: "There is no reason to push you away, this kang is quite big, if you don't mind, let's squeeze together for two days."

Lin Xiangyu's eyes brightened. It's not that he didn't think about sleeping together just now, but he felt that Qu Qiuli's personality probably doesn't like sleeping with others, so he didn't dare to mention it.

"Then take a break." Lin Xiangyu put down his bag, "I'll boil water for you."

After speaking, he hurried away.

Qu Qiuli was a little dazed, burning?bath water?

In fact, after entering the village, he also observed that this place is indeed very backward.

They are basically one-story brick and tile houses, and even a few families are earthen houses.

The bathing place is behind the brick building, in the bathroom.

It is relatively modern, with squatting pits, Yuba lamps, and tiles. It is quite clean, and there is no such a large rural cesspit as he imagined.

This should also be repaired by Lin Xiangyu later.

"Call me if you don't have enough water." Lin Xiangyu came in with two large buckets of hot water, "Although the shower gel and shampoo are not very good, they are all usable. You will last a day. I will ask someone to bring back two bottles of good ones tomorrow." .”

"Brother, don't think of me as coquettish." Qu Qiuli was helpless, his elder brother was really thinking of him in every way, caring about him in every detail.

In addition to being moved, I was also a little helpless.

"That's fine, I'll go out first." Before Lin Xiangyu left, he turned on the Yuba headlights.

After closing the door, Qu Qiuli looked at the two large buckets of hot water with just the right temperature, and let out a long breath.

His big brother...

I haven't had a good bath for many days, and Qu Qiuli took this bath very happily, and felt two catties lighter after the bath.

After changing his clothes, Qu Qiuli put the towel on his head.

My hair is a bit long, and it's easy to get a headache if I don't dry it.

"A Li, have you finished washing?" Lin Xiangyu came back again.

While wiping his hair, Qu Qiuli opened the door.

Lin Xiangyu was stunned for a moment.

Qu Qiuli, who had just taken a shower, had light pink skin, and a slightly loose T-shirt and slacks made him lazy and casual.

But the dripping drops of water fell from the hair, slid over the neck, and dripped over the collarbone until it sank into the abyss of the neckline.

What a picture of a beauty coming out of the bath.

Lin Xiangyu's eyes suddenly made Qu Qiuli a little embarrassed.

He looked at the hair dryer in Lin Xiangyu's hand and asked, "Is this for me?"

"That's right, that's right." Lin Xiangyu came back to his senses, and passed the hair dryer over, "I have short hair, and I don't have a hair dryer at home. I just went out and asked someone to borrow it. Hurry up and dry your hair, so you don't catch a cold."

Qu Qiuli tilted his head, looking at the back of Lin Xiangyu leaving.

He felt that he didn't seem to feel wrong.

But he wasn't so sure either.

Maybe this is how straight men get along with younger brothers?

He has never been in a relationship, nor has he ever had an older brother. It is really too difficult to distinguish the boundaries.

After drying his hair and tidying himself up, Qu Qiuli took the hair dryer to find Lin Xiangyu.

Lin Xiangyu was in the kitchen, burning the fire and making soup.

Half of the kitchen has collapsed, but the clay stove is still usable. As long as it doesn't rain, it will be no problem to cook a meal in the next few days.

"Do you want to repair here?" Qu Qiuli also moved a small bench and sat next to Lin Xiangyu, "You came back this time for this house?"

Lin Xiangyu shook his head, "Not all, I don't plan to repair the house, and I probably won't have a chance to come back in the future."

It wasn't just the house that collapsed, but also the tombs of the old man's family.

After he returned to Lin's house, he changed his number. No one in the village knew about it. The house collapsed and the tomb collapsed. In the end, the village head found his high school head teacher and found his current contact information from the head teacher.

In fact, just pay some money and ask the village chief or the old man's relatives in the computer room to help move the cemetery.

But he was always brought up by the old man alone, and the old man left after telling him about his life experience. He was in a state of confusion and shock for a few days, so the old man's funeral was relatively simple.

This time, he thought, building a cemetery for the old man's family would be repaying the old man's life-saving grace. As for the nurturing grace, the old man's deception of his life experience would be worth it.

After all, he didn't know how to face the old man.

Especially after knowing how much effort my parents have put in to find themselves, and what kind of injuries they have suffered.

Lin looked at Qu Qiuli to Yu, and expressed his thoughts and conflicts in his heart.

This is the first time he has officially talked about this matter, talking about the experience of these years.

Even his parents didn't know, but he just wanted to tell Qu Qiuli.

After Qu Qiuli listened, he didn't know what to say.

In his eyes, child trafficking should be the same crime as buying and selling; because there is no buyer, traffickers will not abduct children again.

But the old man was not the one who bought Lin Xiangyu, but he happened to be Lin Xiangyu's savior.

This point is definitely complicated.

Qu Qiuli has never experienced it, and he can't empathize with it, "Do according to what you think in your heart, and don't leave regrets for yourself."

Lin Xiangyu nodded silently.

The atmosphere is a little heavy.

Qu Qiuli got up and lifted the lid of the pot, "What are you stewing? It smells so good."

"Chicken soup, stewed with wild mushrooms." Seeing that he seemed to like it quite a bit, Lin Xiangyu said, "I'm not very good at cooking, so I'm afraid you won't be used to it, so I'll make the soup simpler."

Speaking of food, the atmosphere finally returned to normal.

Lin Xiangyu added a piece of wood to the stove, "It's enough to simmer slowly on a small fire, let's go for a walk? I'll take you around and return the hair dryer by the way."

After several spring breezes, the fields gradually turned green.

In the evening, the colorful clouds are flying obliquely, walking on the country road, the mood is a different kind of comfort.

From time to time, Lin Xiangyu told Qu Qiuli the funny things that happened when he was a child, which made Qu Qiuli lean forward and backward with laughter. It was rare for him to be so imageless.

Pulled out bird eggs and pulled out a nest of snakes, the firecrackers exploded the dung, and the little friend was covered in rice fields, went to the river ditch to touch crayfish, his buttocks were bleeding, picked poisonous mushrooms, and spit foam after eating...

These are all things that Qu Qiuli has never experienced before, and from these little things, he gradually pieced together Lin Xiangyu's childhood.

"Then what happened later?" Qu Qiuli couldn't help being curious, "Wouldn't you be so skinny when you grow up?"

"It's actually skinny." Lin Xiangyu's eyes were a little sad, "Nine-year compulsory education, I played every day, and my grades were also the first in the school, but after graduating from junior high school, I had no money to go to high school. It’s a lot more honest.”

Afraid of being disobedient, he was not allowed to study.

Many children in the village are like this, with poor grades and disobedience, they went out to work with their parents after finishing junior high school.

He instinctively didn't like that, and there was always a voice in his heart telling him that he must go to the outside world to see.

The high school is in the county, and I can only study in the boarding school.

The first year's tuition and living expenses were paid for by selling cattle, but the family did not have a second cow to sell, so he worked part-time in the county during his spare time.

It wasn't until the head teacher found out about his situation and applied for poverty-stricken students' subsidies for him that his life became easier. Later, he was successfully admitted to university and left here.

For several years in college, he only came back during the Chinese New Year. It wasn't that he didn't want to come back, it was because the old man refused to let him come back, and the old man didn't use any of the money he sent to the old man.

Thinking back carefully now, the old man might also feel guilty.

The topic turned here again.

Qu Qiuli didn't know how to answer it, maybe as long as he was in this place, he couldn't avoid this topic no matter what.

"Yu Lin." An old aunt started to shout from afar, "Wait, my aunt has something to tell you."

Yu Lin, Lin Xiangyu's previous name, it is said that the old man picked him up in the woods and gave him this name.

When Qu Qiuli went to pick up Lin Xiangyu with his parents, he also lamented that the name Yu Lin was related to Lin Xiangyu.

"Aunt Ma." Lin Xiangyu greeted politely, "What do you want from me?"

Aunt Ma didn't say anything, so she asked, "Are you 27 this year?"

Lin nodded to Yu, "There are still a few months to turn 27."

Aunt Ma asked again: "Then you are back home, how are your parents treating you?"

"My parents are very good to me." Lin Xiangyu seemed to have realized something.

Is this for a matchmaker?

In the countryside, this is basically the case. There are not many people who fall in love freely. Most of them are about the same age, and then they go to the aunts in the village to find a matchmaker.

Lin Xiangyu didn't know how to deal with such a problem, he instinctively rejected it, but Aunt Ma treated him well in the past, and when he was going to college, Aunt Ma secretly slipped him 200 yuan.

Aunt Ma continued, "You are a bit old, but it's not a big problem."

She thought in her heart that it was old man Yu's family who were too poor before, that's why no one told him a date, and it was all delayed.

Qu Qiuli doesn't understand, what's the situation?

Standing aside with a bewildered face.

Until Aunt Ma asked again, "You haven't found a partner outside, have you?..."

Qu Qiuli realized it, and he looked at Lin Xiangyu teasingly.

For some reason, Lin Xiangyu felt his scalp go numb, "Aunt Ma, don't talk about it, I don't plan to have a date right now."

Aunt Ma was interrupted, a little unhappy, "You are already 27, look at the boys who grew up with you, any one of them is a doll
