As soon as it rains, the road becomes muddy.
Yu Xifeng and Zhang Qiu retreated behind the shed and went into the RV.
The muddy shoes were left outside and replaced with a new pair.
Zhang Qiu said, "I'll go back and pick up some broken stones and pave a road."
Yu Xifeng took out the cold mung bean soup from the refrigerator.
The air had been stuffy for two days, and the rain finally came, making people feel relieved.
Sugar is added to the mung bean soup, which is very refreshing.
Yu Xifeng pushed the window open a little, leaving the screen open.
The rain hit the window, leaving streaks.
Zhang Qiu fed the chickens before sitting down.
The hen was fattened by Zhang Qiu. When the weather was not so hot, he would let the hen out of the car and walk within sight.
It is quite close to Zhang Qiu. When Zhang Qiu is working, it would circle around Zhang Qiu's feet.
Zhang Qiu threw to it various insects that he had dug out of the mud.
The hen accepts everyone who comes.
Looking out the window, you can see the stone tablet of Old Man Cai.
The place chosen by Zhang Qiu.
Yu Xifeng also agreed with Zhang Qiu's choice.
When it was not raining, Yu Xifeng put the place for practicing boxing and standing in front of the stone tablet.
She gets up at dawn, stands in the meditation posture for two hours, then has breakfast, takes a half-hour break, and then practices boxing for two hours.
Zhang Qiu was working on the reservoir on the other side.
Yu Xifeng could see Zhang Qiu's grief.
When she was practicing boxing, when she was cooking, when she was keeping silent vigil.
She couldn't comfort him.
At this moment, they sat opposite each other, listening to the sound of heavy rain.
Before the rain started, the little orange cat had already returned to the car. I didn't know where it had gone, but it was licking its legs and fur.
Yu Xifeng felt a sense of suffocation in his chest.
The mung bean soup is icy, which makes her feel more comfortable.
No words for a moment.
Zhang Qiu suddenly said, "I have been a very worrying child since I was young. My family once thought that I could not be supported."
"My mother's health was not good either, and it got worse after I was born."
"Because of the bad air, my family moved several times for me. I was going to go to a school with better teachers, but in the end I chose a school in a township. There is nothing else in the village, and the air is much fresher."
"I came from the city, so I had a better foundation. I had already learned a lot of things, so I didn't take the teachers seriously. I thought I was so smart and the teachers were all fools."
"Later, I made a new teacher cry."
"The teacher called the parents, and I was afraid my mom would beat me, so I asked my grandfather to go."
Zhang Qiu paused: "You might as well call me mom."
Old man Cai beat him so hard that he cried loudly.
Little Zhang Qiu felt it was too embarrassing to cry in front of so many friends.
He hated this old man who made him lose face.
So he put mud in the old man's shoes and bugs in his bowl.
Old man Cai is not a talkative person.
Most of the time, he is a silent background figure at home.
The old man never got angry because of his pranks.
Until Zhang Qiu's parents died in a car accident.
Zhang Qiu finally realized that he was just an ordinary child, an ordinary, sickly child.
He can't do anything.
No one took him seriously.
That feeling of powerlessness destroyed his self-righteous innocence.
The bubble of being the only one sober while everyone else is drunk is easily shattered.
It was also from then on that Old Man Cai entered Zhang Qiu's life trajectory.
He is the guardian of little Zhang Qiuxin.
If it is said that his parents indulge him because they love him.
Old man Cai simply ignored him.
No matter what he does, as long as it is not illegal or harmful, Old Man Cai will let him do it.
No matter what he wanted to say, Old Man Cai just listened.
Then, let him think it over and do it.
When Zhang Qiu was in high school, he was addicted to games for a period of time. He would secretly stay up late in bed to play games and fall asleep on the table the next day.
Old Man Cai received a call from the teacher and took Zhang Qiu back.
Zhang Qiu thought that he would beat him like he did when he was a child.
Old man Cai didn’t.
Old Man Cai went to the clinic to get a diagnosis and asked for a month's sick leave for Zhang Qiu.
"If you want to play, then play." said Old Man Cai.
He actually got into gaming at home.
In addition to eating and sleeping, there is also cooking.
Old man Cai’s cooking is so terrible that Zhang Qiu had already mastered his cooking skills by following recipes when he was in junior high school.
He spent all the rest of his time playing games.
He quickly finished that mini-game and started playing something else.
After playing for more than 20 days, the game is still fun.
Old Man Cai asked him if he wanted to take another month off.
Zhang Qiu refused, packed up and went back to school.
The old man had no requirements for Zhang Qiu.
The only requirement is to stay alive.
Yu Xifeng listened quietly.
She knew that Zhang Qiu didn't need anyone's response.
After some words were spoken, the gloom surrounding the two of them seemed to dissipate a little.
The mung beans sank to the bottom of the cup. Yu Xifeng changed the spoon and scooped them out to eat: "Don't you want to eat it?"
Zhang Qiu shook his head: "I don't eat ice, it will make me cough."
After coughing for a while, I developed a low-grade fever.
Yu Xifeng thought that she seemed to have some gelatin in her refrigerator that she had stocked up from the supermarket, and she could use it to make some mung bean jelly.
Or it can be made into mung bean popsicles.
For lunch, I had a bowl of fried farmhouse style chicken and a bowl of fragrant chicken. The egg skin was cut into pieces and the meat slices were very thin.
There is also a dish of shredded potatoes with vinegar and seaweed soup.
The weather was fine and the reservoir was full.
Zhang Qiu began to seal the water reservoir to prevent it from evaporating so quickly.
Yu Xifeng walked a little further away.
From time to time, I would set up traps and catch something, including mice and rabbits.
Yu Xifeng threw the rat meat away and the rabbit into the space.
The rabbit injured its leg and was bleeding in the space.
If it's alive, Yu Xifeng will find an opportunity to pair it up with another one. If it's dead, Yu Xifeng will give the meat to Zhang Qiu.
Fortunately, although the rabbit was injured, it ate the radishes and cabbages without hesitation.
Within two days, he was full of energy and vitality.
Yu Xifeng ignored it.
As for mice, theoretically, they can also be eaten.
But Yu Xifeng was traumatized by this and did not like it.
That day, Yu Xifeng picked up a piece of bloody fur.
"Isn't this the lion I saw that day?" Zhang Qiu said.
"It's not a lion, it's a wolf." Yu Xifeng said.
"Such a big wolf?" Zhang Qiu spread out the fur. "You are too powerful. You must have mastered this boxing skill to perfection. Where's the meat?"
Yu Xifeng shook his head: "I didn't kill him, I just picked up a piece of his skin."
As Yu Xifeng just walked out of the entrance, he was greeted by a fur covered in blood.
She felt something was wrong and looked around.
No wolf meat was found, nor were there any signs of a violent fight.
Yu Xifeng was feeling a little reassured and planned to install a camera at that entrance.
The entrance is some distance from the RV, exceeding the transmission limit.
