As soon as he got on the bus from the airport, he regretted not taking Teacher Yu’s car keys. Otherwise, driving a Mercedes-Benz home would be better than squeezing a bus.
However, when I thought of this snowy day, many cars in Qianzhen could not move in the mountains and valleys, I stopped this thought.
I got on the bus at Changshi Bus Station around 11 a.m. When I returned to the county and caught the last bus back to Qian Town, it was getting late and many farmers were emitting smoke from cooking.
Along the way, Li Heng was a little happy for no reason when he heard people talking about himself and about his Spring Festival Gala.
However, he didn't talk to him, and even covered his face with coins. After rushing for a whole day, he was a little tired. Now he was looking for a clean ear.
He swayed all the way, just when his stomach was very noisy and he was sick and wanted to vomit, the middle bus finally stopped and arrived at Qianzhen Old Station.
It’s so fucking. I can’t open the window when I take a bus in winter. All kinds of smells are mixed together, which is really uncomfortable.
As soon as I got off the bus, I was shocked by the cold wind.
As a last resort, Li Heng pulled the coins with both hands again, covered his neck tightly, then bowed his waist and shrank his back, tightened his hands, and slowly rushed to Shimen Station in the heavy snow.
Although today is the second day of the Chinese New Year, the streets are not lively, and it may be related to being too late. This point,
Those who came to the town to shop had already been fucking home, so how could they hold it until dark?
I was a little hungry, but fortunately, Qian Yuejin wonton shop was not closed. Li Heng didn't think too much and went in.
"Boss, come a big bowl of wontons, add spicy food!" He entered the door and shouted.
"Okay, please wait."
The plump proprietress, known as a flower in the town, looked at him and started to put on wontons.
There were not many people in the store at this time, just three of them formed a table, and it seemed like a group of people. Because the wind at the door was too strong, he deliberately chose a table inside, opened coins, and prepared for dining.
The wontons were cooked quickly, and it was soon enough. The boss lady brought the big bowl of wontons over and was stunned for a long time when he saw him. At first, he covered half of his face with a scarf, but he didn't recognize him. At this time, the boss lady was stunned at first, and then asked enthusiastically:
"Are you back from the capital?"
"Um."
Seeing him shrank, the proprietress asked, "Are you cold?"
Li Heng wanted to say it was okay, but a gust of cold wind poured in and betrayed him.
The boss's wife smiled, made three red coal balls and put them at his feet, and closed the door halfway, then stopped leaving and sat next to him.
The other three diners shouted, "Boss, I'll pick up a few coal balls for me on the festival. Everyone is stupid and I'll hold the chopsticks and I'll hold them."
The boss lady replied: "It's okay, it's just this three-ge."
The other three were unhappy, "Boss, you are kind-hearted, treat it differently."
The boss put his hips on his hips: "Why are you not convinced? He is on the Spring Festival Gala. Well, if you go to the Spring Festival Gala, I will burn coal balls for you too."
Hearing that, the three of them turned their heads together.
Yes, it would be fine if I didn't look at it. When I saw it, my eyes couldn't move away. They put down their chopsticks and ran over, put their heads up and watched, looked left and right, looked up and down, and were more serious than looking at Western scenery.
"Are you Li Heng?"
"Which song "The Original Scenery of Hometown" was amazing the night before! It's so beautiful!"
"Are you the great writer in Shangwan Village?"
The three of them spoke almost at the same time, one more surprised and one more excited.
Can you not be excited?
The person in front of me is a great man from the former town!
How awesome is it?
They may not be silenced when the mayor comes, and the old parents at home may not be silenced, but they admire this from the bottom of their hearts!
Li Heng is a great writer because of the blockage of information that can hide it from people in the outside world, but it has long been spread in Qianzhen, a small valley.
!Not only spread, it has become the biggest topic in Qianzhen these days.
No matter which family greets New Year's greetings, as long as there is a TV, they will watch the Spring Festival Gala replay. A group of people gathered in front of the TV to discuss it.
Seeing the three of them staring at him without blinking, Li Heng took the initiative to laugh and shout, "Happy New Year, three uncles."
"Happy New Year! Happy New Year!"
The three of them nodded without changing their heads, and they received a greeting from a great writer, and their faces were filled with joy.
The three of them can brag when they go back tonight. Guess who I met in the town today?! You can’t believe it. I actually met the legendary master, ha! What’s even more awesome is that people took the initiative to say hello to me and said a happy new year! With my face, you will never have it in your life.
After a few greetings, the three of them finally left satisfied and returned to their own table, but they would look back from time to time, obviously not calming down.
Huh! Grandma, what a bear! Finally, I can eat wontons with peace of mind.
Li Heng, who was so hungry, exhaled, lowered his head and started to bury the wontons, one bite at a time, it was still so delicious, and it was the taste of my childhood.
After he had eaten half a bowl, the boss's wife finally couldn't help but speak, "You've come back alone?"
"Yeah." Li Heng had food in his mouth and responded vaguely.
"It's getting dark and it's still snowing. Do you dare to walk back on the mountain road alone? There are so many brave people in the two cemeteries who dare not leave alone." The boss's wife asked.
He had thought about this problem for a long time, but there was nothing he could do about it now. He could not go home without going home, and he could not go to Xiao Han’s house to squeeze in.
He replied: "It's okay, I'm used to walking, just don't think about it."
The boss lady seemed to see that he was insincere, "Do you want me to send you home?"
"Ah?"
Li Heng was surprised: "Aren't you afraid?"
The boss's wife smiled and said, "I'm definitely not alone, call me my son."
Li Heng thought about it, but refused: "Thank you, someone came to pick me up halfway."
The boss's wife didn't believe it and joked: "Don't worry, I won't let you marry my daughter."
After the college entrance examination last year, she once wanted to introduce her daughter to him, but when she saw Xiao Han, she gave up.
Li Heng smiled and said, "No, I am born with courage and don't believe in these things."
You can't force anything, and when he sees his willingness, the boss's wife also sings good intentions.
After eating wontons, Li Heng took out the money to pay the bill.
But the boss's wife refused, saying that he was the signboard of our Qian Town and brought glory to Qian Town. Everyone in the villages would be close to each other. If he received his money, it would be thunderous.
When Li Heng heard the four words "thunder struck", a chill suddenly burst out from his back. He was like this in his previous life. I am most taboo about this thing in this life.
Alas, if you don’t accept it, don’t accept it. It’s useless to push and rub it. Li Heng finally thanked him and left with his bag on his back.
"Wait, you take this."
The boss lady chased him out, took a flashlight, and handed him a paper bag: "There are tea and rice in it. I transformed it into a talisman a few years ago, so I will give you courage.
Li Heng felt comfortable, and felt warm in his heart. He sincerely said thank you, and did not act pretentiously, and took the thing.
He left.
As soon as he left, a girl came down from the second floor. The boss's daughter, whose appearance was almost carved from the same mold as the boss's wife. This year, she studied at the junior college at Hubei Normal University and asked in surprise: "Mom, why are you so kind to him?"
The boss lady said, "Make a good relationship."
The daughter looked at his back and said, "I am now in the sky and clouds. I guess there are many people outside who have cursed him, so I may not remember your goodness."
The boss's wife clapped her hands: "Didn't she talk about good fate? My mother, I believe in Buddhism and do not ask for anything in return."
"Tsk, the ghost knows whether you ask for rewards." My daughter didn't believe it at all.
The boss lady sighed, "What a pity. When he first came to my shop to eat wontons two years ago, I fell in love with him at first sight and kept thinking about matching you. Oh, our family doesn't have such a blessing."
My daughter said, "I'm sure he didn't want to push me to him after he became famous in writing books? Otherwise, you could have introduced us to each other two years earlier.
(,
"You damn girl! You specialize in singing opposite me, making me popular and you won't give you living expenses." The boss's wife laughed and scolded.
The sky slowly became darker.
There was a dead silence between the world, with only the rustling sound of large snowflakes falling to the ground.
Li Heng walked towards Shangwan Village step by step, step by step, as he walked like a meat dumpling, but he still couldn't resist the bone-broken cold air.
The way home is to go up the mountain road. When you get to your home, you have to climb three mountains. The more you go, the fewer lights there will be on the side of the road.
Especially when you reach the junction of the two villages, there is no one in front and three miles.
I almost arrived at the cemetery, and I turned the corner in front of me.
In the past, I and I were both yelling and rushing over.
Now he was the only one. He first used a flashlight to sing around the road, and finally he was timid and made up his mind to sing, singing while walking, giving himself courage.
While singing, I couldn't help but wonder, what should I do if there was something in front of me singing with me? Turn around and run back? Or do I rush forward bravely?
As he thought about it, he passed the corner. When Li Heng opened his eyes, he immediately stood upside down!
I'm damn!
There was a new grave on the side of the road. It had not yet covered the soil, and it was covered with a bamboo blanket drying with rice. The coffin could be vaguely seen.
A sesame oil lamp was lit in front of the coffin. This is the customary lantern of the Xiao family who shines on the underworld for the deceased to shine on the road. It should be lit as soon as it dark, and it will be lit for 7 nights in a row. That is, the first seven.
With just one glance, he realized that the time of the deceased was wrong, and now he was a burial. He had to wait for a good time to move again to cover the soil. Although this scene is rare in their rural areas, there are still one or two of them every now and then.
Run! If you don’t run, your mother’s spirit will be vented! Li Heng thought this way, and with one step forward, he rushed out and sang loudly while rushing.
"Yeah, Li Heng? Li Heng! Are you Li Heng?"
Just as he ran a hundred meters, a female voice came from under the road, anxious and excited, which scared him.
Li Heng shone the flashlight and was a little dumbfounded.
Isn’t this Zou Jiao, an old classmate in elementary school, after graduating from junior high school, he went to Zhuzhou next door to work in Zhuzhou. I haven’t seen him for many years. Why are you here at night?
He rubbed his eyes: "Lao Jiao?"
"Ah, you still recognize me." Zou Jiao seemed very happy and tried hard to climb up.
Li Heng instinctively took a step back, and took another step back without insurance: "Why are you here alone?"
Zou Jiao Xiemei was almost crying: "Don't you think I'm a ghost, do you?"
Li Heng smacked his lips and reached out to pinch her face. He felt warm and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Lao Jiao, are you afraid of staying here alone?"
Upon hearing this, Zou Jiao said depressedly, "Do you think I want it, my shoes are slipping, and I have gone down the mountain."
After chatting, I found out that she was back from outside today, and was almost the same as herself. She was frightened by the new grave in front of her and kept running forward. As a result, she fell on this uphill section and then slid down the icy road to the bottom of the mountain. It took a lot of effort to climb up.
She asked, "Did you come back from the capital?"
"Yes, you saw me on TV?"
"I saw it. The New Year I spent outside, there is TV. Your Spring Festival Gala is the 6th program, which is so amazing."
"How did you choose to come back today?"
"I ran back. The boss asked me to be his wife. I didn't want to, so I ran away overnight."
Li Heng was speechless and slowly remembered it. It seemed that her boss had fallen in love with her and was always good to her, but she was about 10 years older than her and she couldn't accept it, so she ran away.
Li Heng asked: "Didn't you go with your relatives? Where are your relatives?"
"She's married there, and there are two children," Zou Jiao said.
There were companions on the road, and neither of them was so scared. As they talked, they entered the entrance of the village.
There is a production team living at the entrance of Shangwan Village, with five ponds facing each other. Even if it gets dark, there are still many children playing with firecrackers outside. Hehe, it’s so fun.
"By the way, Li Heng, is your second sister married?"
Zou Jiao has been a follower of her second sister Li Lan since she was a child. She is still a follower of her later generations, and she has a very good relationship until she is old.
Li Heng said: "Not yet, you will see her later."
The two of them are in the same production team, and their homes are in Group 3 of Shangwan Village. After Group 1 and Group 2, they finally arrived at the intersection.
The intersection was quite lively at this time. Many people stood under the eaves of the Chen family and chatted. After a rough sweep, they heard it again. Everyone gathered together and it turned out that they were discussing the rebuilding of the bridge.
"The great writer is back! The great writer is back!"
"Tian Rune, come out and pick you up a baby!"
"Chen Zi, your man is back!
Suddenly, someone saw Li Heng with sharp eyes and immediately shouted loudly. Many people were picking up the same thing and followed them to join in the fun and howled.
The mixed shouts were like a nuclear bomb thrown on the calm lake, and it suddenly resounded through the gourd mouth of Shangwan Village in less than three breaths. Dozens of families in front, back, left and right stretched out their heads and then walked out.
Although Shangwan Village has no TV and no signal, and it is impossible to watch the Spring Festival Gala, Li Heng’s Spring Festival Gala is a big event!
The town is full of news. Many new wives from other villages went back to their parents' homes to pay New Year's greetings, and even talked nonsense, directly praising Li Heng as three heads and six arms, and praised him as a god in the sky.
It was a thrill, and in an instant, men, women, young and old squeezed over, and Wuyang had no less than 120 people.
The man named Liang was also there, and his wife, Fat Aunt, was there, but the couple hid behind the crowd and watched secretly. After all, they had a grudge against the old Li family, so how could they dare to blatantly? But they were also curious. Everyone in and outside the village spread Li Heng so magically that they could hear the legend wherever they went, and they felt itchy.
There was no trouble with the fun and shouted, "Oh! Aunt Fat, you are here too. Go ahead and click ahead,
The old Li family is now very developed!”
When he heard this, Fat Aunt snatched her feet awkwardly, turned around and ran back to her home, then slammed the door and closed.
"Hahaha..."
The people nearby were amused and laughed.
However, the gray man named Liang was very thick-skinned and watched the fun in the crowd like a ok-all.
There was too much noise outside, and the people from the old Li family came out. Li Jianguo, Tian Rune, grandma and Li Lan, and his second aunt and second uncle, as well as a cousin.
At the same time, the Chen family on this side of the road also came out. Chen Gaoyuan, Chen Xiaomi, Chen Xiaohong, Chen Zijin and Chen Zitong and others, and there were Mr. Chen slowly hanging behind him, as well as several old friends from the village.
Although, at this moment, hundreds of people gathered at the intersection, including men, women, and young and old, Li Heng only had his own eyes.
The same goes for Zi, following the crowd and looking at him happily.
Looking at each other, two seconds later, Chen Zijin happily crossed the crowd to pick him up, wanting to help him carry something.
result·-·
Li Heng didn't care about this and hugged Zi in front of the old and young men in the village and hugged him excitedly.
I was embarrassed during the summer vacation of the previous year. I will help my wife get back during the Chinese New Year this year!
"Wife, I'm back."
"Uh-huh.."
There are too many people, and Chen Zijin is very shy, but being held like this by her man, she feels very sweet inside. When she stares at the face in front of her, tears can't help but burst into tears in her eyes.
At this moment, she has no regrets in this life and death.
After hugging for about ten seconds, Li Heng let her go and was about to call someone and elders, he never wanted to make a shout in front of him.
"Brother-in-law!"
This brother-in-law was shouted by Chen Zitong on the back, her eyes were bulging.
Zhong Lan, hiding in the corner of the second floor, watched the scene of her eldest daughter hugging the kid through the gap in the curtains, and listened to her younger daughter's "brother-in-law". She was immediately angry and called out, but she was helpless.
Now it is no better than the past. That boy soars into the sky and she has no choice but to do anything to him.
Zhong Lan was not upset and left the window, but stopped in place before walking far. After a while, he quietly touched the window, pulled open the curtain with his fingers, pulled out a gap, and continued to observe the situation outside.
Li Heng held his eldest daughter's hand and greeted Chen and Li's family all the way, and took out a scattered bun from his backpack for the young and old men watching.
Not only that, in addition to cigarettes, there is also candy, a large bag of candy, which is said to be his and Zijin's wedding candy.
This kid is good at being a human being, and he has a lot of face.
Zhong Lan's eyes were on her eldest daughter's face that was overjoyed. Later, she looked at her younger daughter who was grabbing candy.
I couldn't help but curse: You damn girl, you usually have to be like a monkey, and you look down on me three, five, and ten,
Today, Li Heng laughed so hard that he couldn't stop giving him a candy. I was so angry that I was so angry. You ungrateful wolf.
"Sister-in-law, who are you calling me?" My sister-in-law Chen Xiaoyun didn't go outside. She just woke up and was holding a cup of tea in her hand.
Zhong Lan turned around and said unnaturally: "Xiaoyun, you are awake."
"Well, Li Heng is back? Let me see." As he said that, Chen Xiaoyun walked over her sister-in-law, bent down and opened the curtains wide by her palm, and happened to see Li Heng taking her eldest niece back to the Li family.
After a while, Chen Xiaoyun stood up and said, "Sister-in-law, if Zi Jin doesn't come back tonight, don't go over and make trouble."
In fact, she believed that her sister-in-law would not make trouble. After all, her niece stayed opposite her door for several nights before the New Year. Although her sister-in-law was sulking, she did not stop her.
But now that Li Heng is back, his sister-in-law, who is afraid that she will lose her mind, has a mouthful of her.
Zhong Lan said unhappily: "Now that their wings are hard, you all put down your face and stood up."
Chen Xiaoyun laughed and comforted her: "Those who know the times are heroes. In a family like ours, their face is sometimes valuable, and sometimes they are not valuable.
I like Li Heng so much, even if I want to stop him, I can't stop him. I won't help them."
Zhong Lan whispered, "Did you ask you to be a lobbyist?"
Chen Xiaoyun did not hide it: "My sister-in-law is smart, she can see through it at a glance."
Zhong Lan paused, his hands were tangled together, and said lonely for a long time: "That boy is very popular. Even the old man finally tangled and intervened clearly. Please don't worry, I won't make trouble."
Chen Xiaoyun opened her mouth, but she wanted to speak but stopped.
Fortunately, Chen Gaoyuan came in at this time, "Xiaoyun, Xiaomi has something to do with you."
Chen Xiaoyun knew it was an excuse for the elder brother to send him away, so she responded immediately, walked out, and closed the door.
Chen Gaoyuan walked over and took his wife's hand to the chair and sat down: "I'm sulking again."
Zhong Lan said, "I dare not."
Chen Gaoyuan knew his wife's temper and poured her a cup of hot water.
Zhong Lan asked coldly, "Why didn't you go to the Li family? Your two daughters have both gone."
Chen Gaoyuan smiled helplessly: "They are younger generations, different. You should have seen the situation between Zi and Xiaoheng just now. It's over, so let them go.
Zhong Lan asked, "Xiaoheng, what if your daughter stayed there tonight?"
Chen Gaoyuan thought for a while, calmed down and said, "It's not the first time, just as Zijin is willing."
At this point, the couple looked at each other without saying a word for a while.
After a while, the sound of ocarina sounded across the opposite side. At everyone's request, Li Heng blew the "Original Scenery of Hometown" performed by the Spring Festival Gala.
When Zhong Lan, who was about to drink tea, stopped hearing the notes and stopped moving his hands. It took a long time to say, "Is this the show that kid is on the Spring Festival Gala?"
Chen Gaoyuan was fascinated by the sound of his ears, and it took him a long time to react, "It should be, it sounds really good. Xiao Heng is talented. No wonder he was given the name of a musician in the newspaper."
Zhong Lan wanted to argue, but found that she could not start and could not argue.
After a long time, she asked, "At a young age, she is so amazing. She has become famous by writing books and composes music. She has no way to deal with women. How did he grow up? How did he learn it?"
Chen Gaoyuan was amused and cried, wondering whether his wife was praising or demoting?
Chen Gaoyuan pondered, "Some people are born Rome, as if they were born to know it. I think Xiaoheng is such a person."
Zhong Lan asked: "How does the old man evaluate him?"
Chen Gaoyuan was surprised and this was the first time he saw his wife asking about this. He said, "The old man only has two words, "The genius Zhong Lan took a deep breath and took another tea."
After she came, she said, "Gaoyuan, go out and let me be alone."
Chen Gaoyuan nodded, got up and patted his wife on the shoulder, and walked out.
