Chapter 255: People in the Mountains

Zhou Ziyan and Jiang Xueyan took the high-speed train to the provincial capital, then took the bus to the county town, then transferred to the bus to Luhe Town surrounded by mountains.

Stayed in the town for one night and hired a van early the next morning.

I changed cars several times yesterday, which made Jiang Xueyan very tired. I told Zhou Ziyan that I should drive my own car over, and at least I wouldn't be so tired.

Zhou Ziyan shook his head with a wry smile and refused to answer.

It was not until later that Jiang Xueyan understood why Zhou Ziyan refused to drive over.

The van carried two people and was bumping on a deserted dirt road for a long time. Zhou Ziyan got out of the car and vomited three times. In the end, the van turned around and turned back to the front of the car - the front was not open and could not leave.

After sending the van, Zhou Ziyan and Jiang Xueyan sat on the side of the road for a while before recovering. Jiang Xueyan asked with a trembling courage: "How far do you have to go?"

Zhou Ziyan smiled bitterly for a while and pointed to the sun that had already tilted westward: "It's not far away, when you can't see it, it's almost time to get home."

Jiang Xueyan couldn't help but become discouraged. Zhou Ziyan's meaning would have to walk for at least five hours, five hours!

The next section of the road is actually not very long, but it is really difficult to walk, all of which are mountain roads.

As the sunset fell to the top of the mountain, Zhou Ziyan finally became excited and pointed to a valley not far away, encouraging Jiang Xueyan: "I saw it, just there..."

Following Zhou Ziyan's hand, the valley was lush and green, and there was no trace of others. Jiang Xueyan even doubted whether Zhou Ziyan had made a mistake.

Finally arrived at that valley. Jiang Xueyan discovered that the valley was not much larger than a palm. Several families were located on it, facing south and north, backed by mountains, with green pine and stones. A stream that could only flood the calves. Half a circle of those families flowed by. At this time, there were three or four children aged seven or eight, playing in the stream. The environment seemed to be quite good.

Jiang Xueyan thinks that the only drawback is that there are too few people!

There are indeed very few families here, only seven or eight families, almost just a large yard.

Before entering the yard, a young man wearing a denim jacket and crutches came out, almost the same age as Zhou Ziyan and looked a little delicate. When he saw Zhou Ziyan and Jiang Xueyan, he was stunned at first, and suddenly he smiled: "Xiao Zhou, Zhou Ziyan, radish boss..."

Looking at the young man with crutches, Zhou Ziyan also smiled: "Brother Jun, you still call me radish boss..."

With a smile, Zhou Ziyan threw away the box, and the young man threw away the crutches, hugged them together all of a sudden, laughing loudly, very intimate.

After enough intimacy, Zhou Ziyan turned his head and said to Jiang Xueyan: "Yang Jun, my childhood friend, haha..."

Yang Jun looked at Jiang Xueyan and sighed: "So beautiful, is this my sister-in-law?"

Zhou Ziyan helped Yang Jun pick up the crutch, handed it to Yang Jun's hand, and then punched Yang Jun's chest lightly, then said with a smile: "Don't talk nonsense, this is my immediate boss, Miss Jiang."

Yang Jun took the crutch and smiled disbelief: "I don't know your kid's virtue yet. He just loves to hide it. He is not your wife. Who would like to come with you? You dare to say that it is not your wife."

Seeing that Zhou Ziyan and Yang Jun were talking loudly before, Jiang Xueyan couldn't make any comments at all. At this time, Jiang Xueyan blushed and greeted him: "Hello Brother Jun!"

Yang Jun laughed and said, "Okay, okay, Ziyan, look at it, you're calling me Brother Jun, and you're still saying no, hey, always stand here and talk, look at me, haha, let's go, go to my place tonight, our brothers are drinking and chatting."

While walking, Zhou Ziyan asked, "Brother Jun, what's wrong with your leg?"

Yang Jun laughed and said, "I'm not lucky. I want to earn some money, then move out and go to the construction site to move bricks. I fell off the second floor. I can just leave..."

"Where is Da Jun, Lao Duan, Xiao Heipi and the others, not at home?"

These people are Zhou Ziyan’s brothers when he was a child. When he comes back, he must ask.

Yang Jun smiled and sighed: "Da Jun and Xiao Hei Pi are both developed and moved away long ago. Lao Duan hasn't moved yet, but it's time to go soon. It's said that you can praise enough money at the end of the year... Hey, I said, Zi Yan, you kid, aren't you doing well outside? Why are you running back again?"

While Yang Jun spoke, he took Zhou Ziyan and Jiang Xueyan to a three-bedroom old house on his right and pushed open the door.

"Haha...the conditions are simple, don't dislike it, go in..."

Zhou Ziyan did not postpone and followed him into the house.

The walls inside the house were pasted with newspapers, but they were smoky and burned. Over time, they were already a little black.

Yang Jun was very polite and asked Zhou Ziyan and Jiang Xueyan to sit directly on the bed of the kang, and then said with a smile: "These two days of work are busy, and they have to come back until dark. Don't be surprised if you don't have any good hospitality."

In this season, the crops in the fields must be harvested, the crops that should be planted, and the weedings must be weeded. It is really a busy farming season. Yang Jun should have been injured in his leg and could not get out of the ground, so he stayed at home.

As he said that, he went to help Zhou Ziyan and Jiang Xueyan pour water on crutches. Zhou Ziyan stopped Yang Jun. He was very skilled and took the enamel jar, poured the water, and put it on the small table on the kang bed.

This is for Jiang Xueyan.

After pouring the water, Zhou Ziyan sighed: "Then are there all those people here at home?"

Zhou Ziyan and Yang Jun met an old friend, and there were endless things to say. Jiang Xueyan was very tactful. When she couldn't make up her words, she would hold up a teapot and drink water, and never say much.

Yang Jun pondered for a moment before then replied with a smile: "You haven't come back in the past few years. You have left the family, Da Jun and Xiao Heipi, and Shengzi, who likes to fight with you the most. Now there are Lao Duan, our family, Huang Maque, and four or five other families like your uncle Zhou Yuan. However, they all work outside all year round, and there are only elderly and children at home."

Yang Jun said that they were all childhood friends who were about the same age as Zhou Ziyan. Zhou Ziyan naturally remembered it and said with a smile: "Shengzi moved away, haha, that guy..."

Yang Jun smiled for a while and said, "I still remember that guy Shengzi, haha, I still remember that time I went to steal sweet potatoes from your uncle's field and roasted them. It was Shengzi who suggested that we become sworn brothers together. Later, this guy led the fight with us. Now I think about it... Haha... I don't know, Shengzi is doing better now, with an asset of 700,000 or 800,000 yuan, haha..."

Zhou Ziyan and his childhood friends became sworn brothers. Jiang Xueyan also heard about the fight between potatoes. Now that he heard this story from Yang Jun again, he couldn't help laughing.

"That guy Shengzi is the boss!" Zhou Ziyan also laughed for a while, and then sighed: "Time flies so fast..."

After chatting about some interesting childhood stories, Yang Jun asked: "Ziyan, when you come back this time, will you bring your sister-in-law home to live?"

Zhou Ziyan shook his head and looked at Jiang Xueyan again: "Brother Jun, Miss Jiang is really not my wife. She just came here to play. I came back this time mainly to see Xiaoting and my mother!"

Unexpectedly, when Zhou Ziyan said this, Yang Jun's face suddenly disappeared. He looked at Zhou Ziyan steadily. After a while, he said heavily: "Ziyan, don't blame me for being too talkative. Xiaoting's affairs have been so many years, you really..."

Jiang Xueyan didn’t know what kind of person Xiaoting is, but Zhou Ziyan once told her that in Zhou Ziyan’s heart, there was a very good girl who had always occupied Zhou Ziyan’s entire heart. It seemed that she should be this girl named Xiaoting.

But Jiang Xueyan still asked suddenly: "Ziyan, Brother Jun, who is Xiaoting?"

When Jiang Xueyan asked, Zhou Ziyan's face also became silent.

After a long time, Zhou Ziyan and Yang Jun never said a word. At this time, there was a sound of farm tools hitting and heavy objects falling to the ground outside the house. I think it was probably the people who went to the ground who came back one after another.

Yang Jun stood up with a cane, walked to the door, and called out, "Mom, a guest is here at home..."

Yang Jun's mother Li Xiuchun, a woman in her fifties, with a few gray hair on her temples, and a heavy farm work that was too early to write marks on her face. She wiped her apron with a pair of rough hands, and asked with a smile: "Where are the distinguished guests coming from? How could they come to our mountain corner?"

"Mom Yang..." Zhou Ziyan smiled and shouted through the door.

Li Xiuchun heard this sound a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a moment. After a "hey", she entered the house and asked with a smile: "Who is this? Why does it sound so familiar?"

Zhou Ziyan responded with a smile again: "Mom Yang, it's me, the leader of the carrot!"

Li Xiuchun immediately remembered who the radish leader was, and laughed and said, "Who did I say it? It turned out that our Ziyan is back... OK, remember to come back to see your mother Yang... It's so good..."

Jiang Xueyan looked at Li Xiuchun with a smile on her face and quickly got off the kang bed, and smiled and called out: "Hello, Mom Yang?"

Li Chunxiu looked at Jiang Xueyan, who was as beautiful as a flower, and laughed again: "Oh... Ziyan's wife, this is so beautiful, haha, so handsome..."

Zhou Ziyan and Yang Jun looked at each other, both shook their heads and smiled bitterly. Jiang Xueyan blushed, but she had no shyness and did not make any excuses.

After looking at Jiang Xueyan for a while, Li Chunxiu remembered something and said with a smile: "Don't stand there, sit quickly, look at me, our radish boss couple is back home. Later, Mom Yang will make you the best chicken stewed mushrooms for you..."

"Mom Yang, don't be so troublesome, just be casual, I have to live for a while." Zhou Ziyan advised with a smile.

Li Chunxiu was not willing to follow him. While walking towards the kitchen, she smiled and said, "What trouble is it? When you get back here, you will be at home and you are all a family, so you dare not be polite."

As he said that, Li Chunxiu ignored her and started cooking and started working hard.

Jiang Xueyan and Zhou Ziyan laughed and asked quietly, "So you have a nickname called Radish Head, how did you come from?"
