Ba Zong's rural life [farming]

Ruan Xishi has been a teacher in the village for some time, and he gradually got used to the daily routine of being a teacher.

Get up at 06:30 in the morning, cook breakfast in the pot, then go out to the vegetable field to pick the green vegetables eaten today, feed the chickens and ducks, eat breakfast after breakfast is cooked, go out at 6:11, and it takes 30-[-] minutes able to reach school.After class at [-]:[-] noon, he went home and passed by the pork guy's stall, and bought some meat by the way. When he got home, Lu Ze had already cooked the rice. Go back to the room to take a nap, get up at one o'clock and go to school, and get out of class at five o'clock, and then he can tend his vegetable field.

On Children's Day, Ruan Xishi took an afternoon out to organize activities for the children in the village, on the field next to the school.He asked the village chief to borrow a long hemp rope, tied a piece of red cloth in the middle of the rope, and drew a white line with limestone in the middle of the field for tug-of-war competitions.

Because the stadium is open, people who are idle in the village will come to watch around the stadium when activities are held, which is very lively.

Since Lu Ze was at home and had nothing to do, Ruan Xishi also invited him to visit.

When the activity was going on, the students who were evenly divided into two groups by Ruan Xishi stood at the two sections of the rope, holding the rope tightly in their hands. Ruan Xishi hung a whistle around his neck, and he would be the referee after the activity started, a temporary tug-of-war competition After being made to look good by him, Lu Ze and many villagers stood by the side of the field to watch.

It was rare for the children to have such an activity, and all of them were very active. When Ruan Xishi gave an order, both sides pulled the rope back vigorously. The red cloth in the middle of the rope swung back and forth on both sides of the white line. The two sides were evenly matched and showed no sign of weakness.

Because Ruan Xishi prepared a bag of candy as a competition reward, although each person may not get a few, but they rarely have pocket money to buy candy on weekdays, so it is very precious.

There are winners and losers in the game. The tug-of-war game is set up twice. Both sides win and lose. After the game is over, the children on both sides will not feel resentful towards others because of winning or losing. into their hands.

A large bag of fruit candy costs six yuan, and a child can get three pieces, which is enough to make them happy for a long time. Everyone received their own candies from Ruan Xishi, and they said goodbye to their good friends in twos and threes. , Today is June [-]st, Teacher Xiaoruan allowed free activities in the afternoon, they certainly cherish this hard-won freedom.

After Ruan Xishi finished distributing candies to the children, he still had five candies left in his hand, so he didn't plan to distribute the remaining candies to the students, for fear that the uneven distribution would cause them to fight among themselves.He tied up the rope and was going to return it to the village chief when he got home later, and then went to the side of the field to find Lu Ze with the remaining five candies.

Seeing him coming, Lu Ze showed a familiar smile on his face, Ruan Xishi was so happy, her face was still flushed with excitement, which looked very good-looking on his fair face.

Ruan Xishi walked up to Lu Ze and looked up at Lu Ze. Lu Ze was standing on the fence half the height of the stadium. Seeing this, he bent down and stretched out his hand to Ruan Xishi. He saw Ruan Xishi's intentions. As soon as he stretched out his hand, Ruan Xishi held his palm tightly, and the two joined forces, and Lu Ze pulled Ruan Xishi up to the wall.

Behind the fence is the rice paddy field full of vitality. When the breeze blows, Ruan Xishi's body, which was still hot just now, is suddenly relieved, allowing him to sit comfortably on the fence.

Lu Ze also sat on the fence with him, watching the carefree children playing their own activities in the field.

Ruan Xishi remembered that he still had candy on him, he took one out of his pocket and handed it to Lu Ze, asking, "Brother Lu Ze, do you want some candy?"

This candy is wrapped in colorful wrapping paper. It looks good at first glance, but it is actually very cheap. It is made of a mixture of essence and saccharin, and the cost is less than a dime.When Lu Ze was in the city, a small box of imported chocolate candies worth a few hundred yuan was not in his eyes. It stands to reason that he would not eat such three-nothing products.

But after he took it, he saw Ruan Xishi put one in his mouth and sucked it with relish. He was infected by him, so he also peeled off the package and put the candy in his mouth.

Not to mention, this candy is quite delicious. Although I can't taste the specific fruit flavor, it's not as sweet and greasy as I imagined. It tastes sweet and sweet, so Lu Ze is not so objectionable.

The two of them sat on the fence of the field and ate sweets silently. The children who were playing on the field suddenly made a noise. They even stopped the game they were playing, pointed at the road, and then shouted in unison.

"Zhang Dasha! Zhang Dasha!"

Ruan Xishi suddenly turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw a tall and strong young man standing on the road, staring blankly at the children playing in the field, and laughed foolishly when he heard others calling his nickname.

This is Zhang Zhichao of the Zhang family, and one of Ruan Xishi's childhood friends.His name is Zhang Zhichao, because he was really a smart kid at first, but he had a high fever when he was a child, and the family had no money to see a doctor for him, which burned his head. Sighing with regret, the children learned from their parents that he had become a fool. Gradually, children of the same generation or younger in the village called him Zhang Dasha.

Zhang Dasha's parents always love their children. Seeing their son being bullied by their peers and children, they simply shut him up at home and seldom let him go out. .

Today, his parents don't know where they went. He probably heard the laughter on the other side of the stadium and ran out secretly to watch the excitement. He would be pointed and laughed by a group of children. He still thought it was fun. While watching the children making faces at him, he giggled.

Young people his age are either married or have gone out to work. He is one of the few friends of Ruan Xishi's age in the village. Naturally, Ruan Xishi can't see him being bullied, even his students, a group of children who don't know the difference between good and evil.

Ruan Xishi signaled to Lu Ze, and went down to the side of the road to pull him over. When the students saw Zhang Zhichao approaching them, they shouted his nickname even more brazenly.

Zhang Zhichao was not annoyed by this at all, on the contrary, he was complacent because of his "community", and seeing his long-lost partner, he felt even happier, and the smile on his face never stopped.

Ruan Xishi, on the other hand, saw the children's laughter getting louder and louder. She couldn't help raising her still young face, looked at his students reproachfully, and reprimanded: "You can't just give people nicknames, why don't you, teacher? Taught you to respect others."

In the minds of the students, Mr. Ruan is just a big boy who is a few years older than them. Although he is usually respectful to him, he is actually close to him as a playmate. There is no generation gap between them. It was the first time I saw Teacher Xiaoruan angry, and they froze for a while, and fell silent. In the end, they just stuck out their tongues at Zhang Zhichao, and they all left to continue playing games.

Ruan Xishi led Zhang Zhichao to Lu Ze and introduced them to them. He said to Lu Ze, "This is my friend, Zhang Zhichao. He is the child of Aunt Zhang who sent us cakes last time."

Lu Ze looked at this silly and honest young man, and nodded to him in a friendly way.

Ruan Xishi introduced Lu Ze to Zhang Zhichao: "This is Lu Ze, and now he is temporarily staying with me at my house."

Zhang Zhichao is not as tall as Lu Zegao, so he needs to look up at him, and after watching him, he sighs sincerely: "Really, really tall!"

Ruan Xishi smiled dryly and explained to Lu Ze: "Zhi Chao was sick when he was a child, and his brain had some troubles. Don't mind, he is very good."

Zhang Zhichao was very close to Ruan Xishi, and when he heard Ruan Xishi praise him, he nodded triumphantly, pointed to himself and said, "I'm fine! I'm not stupid!"

This sentence was taught to him by his parents and Ruan Xishi. He firmly remembered it. He said this sentence whenever he met someone. It made people feel a little sad. Even Lu Ze was moved with compassion, nodded and said to him: "Well, you're fine."

Zhang Zhichao finally got the affirmation from outsiders, so happy that he clapped his hands, Ruan Xishi saw him happy, and was also happy, so he gave him the three remaining candies in his pocket.

Zhang Zhichao suddenly found that there were a few more candies in his hand, he let out a surprise, and looked at Ruan Xishi with a puzzled expression.

Ruan Xishi patted him on the shoulder and said to him, "Today is Children's Day, this is a gift for you."

Zhang Zhichao heard that it was a gift, and he didn't care whether he was still in the category of children. He was very happy. He took the candy in his hand and looked left and right. Give it to them, and stammered to them: "You, eat too!"

Ruan Xishi opened her mouth with a smile, and said to him: "We are already eating, these are your portion, you take them home and share them with your parents."

Zhang Zhichao counted the candies in his hands seriously after hearing the words: "This is super, this is from Dad, and this is from Mom."

After counting, he laughed brightly, and he didn't forget to thank Ruan Xishi.

It's not the end of school, although the students can play on the court, but they can't go home, because there are no adults at home and no one will know what happened, so Ruan Xishi has to stay on the court to watch the children, just when Zhang Zhichao ran When he came out, he didn't see Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang come out to look for him for a while, and he didn't feel at ease to let Zhang Zhichao go out by himself, so he just took Zhang Zhichao to play together.

The candy paper thrown on the ground was stained with sugar, which soon attracted ants. Zhang Zhichao squatted in the corner to watch the ants lined up in a row. Hehehe laughed, and asked Ruan Xishi to go over and see.

Ruan Xishi watched the ants moving things with him for an hour, and when the time came after school and the children went home one after another, he led Zhang Zhichao to Zhang's house.

The families of the big surnames in the village all build houses next to each other. The Zhang family is the most populous surname in the village. There are many houses belonging to the Zhang family, and they are all cousins.

Zhang Zhichao's house is not far from the roadside. Ruan Xishi took him to the door. The door was open. Zhang Zhichao probably forgot to close it when he slipped out. Fortunately, every holiday has its own door, and you need a key to enter. Even if the door is open, there is no fear of losing things.

Ruan Xishi said to him: "Okay, go home quickly, otherwise your parents will worry about you again when they see you going out by yourself."

As soon as the words fell, Aunt Zhang's flustered voice came from the room, and then she rushed out. After seeing Zhang Zhichao, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then said angrily, "You child, why did you run out by yourself!"

Zhang Zhichao looked at Ruan Xishi, then at his mother, and stammered: "Shi, Shizai play with me, and give me candy, me! I'm happy!"

Aunt Zhang came up to see if he was injured and if his clothes were dirty. Seeing that he was fine, she felt relieved, then looked at Ruan Xishi and Lu Ze, and said gratefully: "Thank you so much today, I'll tell you Zhang Uncle went to do some work in the field, and when he came back, he found that Xiao Chao was gone. This kid knows how to cause trouble for others."

Ruan Xishi quickly said: "Aunt Zhang, don't blame him, he wanted to go out and have a look because he was bored at home."

After hearing this, Aunt Zhang sighed and said: "Why don't we know, it's just that he looks like this, how can we let him go out to play with confidence, and not everyone looks at him like you do without colored glasses."

Ruan Xishi thought for a while and said: "How about this, I will come over to hang out with him when I am free in the future, with me here, I will not let others bully him."

When Aunt Zhang heard this, she was overjoyed. Of course, he believed that Ruan Xishi could do what he said. Ruan Xishi, as the grandson of Teacher Ruan, also had a high reputation in the village. Now he will become a teacher in the village again. Others will always give him some face. , let his son play with him, maybe he won't be pointed at by others.

She was very grateful, and said again and again: "Shizi, you are such a good boy. Our Xiaochao doesn't know what kind of blessings he has cultivated in his life, so he can be friends with you. Hey, it's getting late, why don't you stay?" Come down and have a meal at Aunt Zhang's house, Aunt Zhang is going to kill a chicken, it will be soon."

Ruan Xishi hurriedly called her to stop and said, "No need for Aunt Zhang, we should go home, we have to get up early tomorrow to go shopping in the town."

As he said that, he took Lu Ze out of Aunt Zhang's house, and went home regardless of Aunt Zhang's persuasion.

On the way, Ruan Xishi said to Lu Ze: "Brother Lu Ze, you shouldn't mind playing with Zhichao. Although he is a little slow, he is sincere to people. If you can, it would be even better if you two become friends."

Seeing Ruan Xishi's dedication to protecting his friends, Lu Ze was also touched. He replied to Ruan Xishi, "I don't mind. In the future, you will invite him to play at home more often. I think he likes you very much."

Ruan Xishi scratched her head in embarrassment when she heard the words: "What do you like or not? He is my friend, and I should take care of him."

Lu Ze smiled slightly: "It's because of this that you are liked by others."

Ruan Xishi's heart moved slightly, she raised her head and asked him: "Then brother Lu Ze also likes me?"

Lu Ze paused for a moment, and found that he couldn't naturally admit whether he liked Ruan Xishi or not. Knowing that Ruan Xishi treated him so well, he felt that there might be no one in the world who could treat him wholeheartedly like Ruan Xishi.

Likes should be likes, but Lu Ze couldn't tell which one he liked.

There is also a fool in our hometown. Although everyone points at him all day long, when they see him in the wine shop, they will serve him food and vegetables, but I still don’t want everyone to look at him strangely. Treat him_(:з)∠)_
