Chapter 9 On the Road (Part 2)
After returning from the toilet, I saw that everyone was getting ready to eat, so I took a piece of paper from my bag to wipe the water off my body, took out my braised meat and hot sauce for everyone to eat together, and everyone quickly took out their own vegetables and meat.
It seems that everyone is the kind of person who doesn't want to take advantage of others. Tang Yue is very satisfied. In the future, everyone will get along better when they are together. If there is someone who likes to calculate, it will be very tiring to get along with them. It's not that they are stingy and don't give, but they will feel unbalanced after doing it too many times. Not to mention, everyone's dishes are good and delicious.
After dinner, Xiao Jun suggested that the boys should keep watch at night. When Zhu Xiaoqin heard this, she said, "Are you looking down on us female comrades, or something?"
"No, no, I absolutely don't mean that. Then the eight of us will be on guard for two nights, one man and one woman in the first half of the night, and one man and one woman in the second half of the night. How about that, is it ok?" Xiao Jun said quickly, touching the sweat on his forehead.
Zhu Xiaoqin responded, "Okay, that's good enough. I'll stay here for the first half of the night."
When Tang Yue heard this, she said hurriedly, "Then I'll keep watch for half the night. I just slept for the whole afternoon, so I'm not sleepy."
"Then Xiao Jun and I will take turns guarding tonight," Zhang Jianjun said. Xiao Jun didn't say anything, but nodded.
Everyone was a relatively well-educated person, so they quickly divided the people who would keep watch. Tang Yue didn't care what the others were like, and simply leaned on the table and pretended to sleep, using her mental power to feed all the animals. She had used her mental power for too long in the afternoon, and felt mentally exhausted, so she came out and prepared to go to bed after not staying for long.
He fell asleep in a short while, and the people around him spoke in a low voice consciously when they saw him sleeping.
When Tang Yue woke up, it was dark outside. She looked at the watch. It was a little past eleven forty, almost twelve o'clock. Zhu Xiaoqin and Zhang Jianguo were talking in low voices beside her. Tang Yue got up and prepared to go to the toilet. She was afraid of disturbing others, so she walked out of the corridor carefully. There was no one in the toilet, so she entered the toilet, locked the door, took out a piece of wet paper from the space, wiped her face, and made herself sober.
After coming back, I saw Xiao Jun also got up, so I greeted him and sat down to wait for dawn.
Tang Yue sat in her seat with her mind full of wild thoughts. She thought that the college entrance examination was still twelve years away. She would be 28 years old by then. Was it necessary to take the exam? If she hadn't married yet, she would be an old maid. People around her would also say that she was not married at such an old age. What was wrong with her? If she married, she would definitely have children. Oh my God, she suddenly thought that she didn't stock up on birth control supplies. By then, she might have given birth to a football team. She thought it was better to get married later. She didn't know what kind of person she would find. She hoped that he would be good-looking. There was no way Tang Yue was a beauty lover. With her appearance, if she found an ordinary person, she would be wronged. She couldn't think about it. She was still young and there was no rush.
Xiao Jun looked at Tang Yue opposite him and wanted to talk to her but was embarrassed. From the first time Xiao Jun saw Tang Yue, his heart began to beat uncontrollably. He knew that he fell in love with Tang Yue at first sight. This was the first time in his 19 years of life that he felt so timid. As a little bully in the compound, he didn't even dare to talk to the goddess in his heart. This wouldn't do. He must carry forward the spirit of our army and take the target as soon as he found it. But the goddess was too young, only 16 years old. He felt like a beast. He could only think of a way to boil the frog in warm water and let her get used to his existence. People say that those who fall in love at first sight are just attracted by beauty. Xiao Jun admitted that he was just attracted by beauty. Fortunately, he signed up to come to the village, otherwise he would have missed it.
Tang Yue had no idea what the person sitting opposite her was thinking. Even if she knew, she wouldn't care. Everyone has one or two suitors. As long as they weren't specifically lured in as a backup, it would be fine.
This midnight, Tang Yue had been daydreaming, her mind was full of fantasies, her thoughts could not be stopped, she almost thought of a name for her first child, she quickly patted her cheeks to clear herself up, and looked out the window, the sun had just risen, the sunrise was so beautiful, watching the sun rise made her feel full of vitality and refreshed.
The people in the car got up one after another, rinsed their mouths and washed their faces, and Xu Kai and Zhang Mei also woke up. Looking at the two of them, I felt that love was beautiful. Of course, the most important thing was the combination of handsome men and beautiful women. You can try a beast and a beauty instead, as long as you are not afraid of blinding your eyes.
Seeing that everyone was getting up, Tang Yue picked up an enamel cup and prepared to fetch a glass of water before going to the toilet to rinse her mouth. As for washing her face, she could only go to the toilet secretly to get a piece of wet paper to wash it. It was not that difficult to overcome it. There were many people lining up at the water inlet, and fortunately there were not many people. The water was fetched in a short while. Although there was a lot of water in the space, Tang Yue still went to fetch some water without any trouble. She would not let herself be exposed.
There were a lot of people queuing at the toilet door. It seemed that everyone had just woken up, so there were more people. It took more than 20 minutes before it was Tang Yue's turn. She rinsed her mouth and washed her face in one go, and threw the used wet tissue into the space. After a while, there was no more, so she didn't stay for long and went out directly. There were still many people queuing outside.
I took the cup and went directly to the dining car in front to get a cup of hot water, then went back to my seat and everyone had breakfast.
Seeing Tang Yue coming back, Xiao Jun immediately said, "Tang Yue, come back. Do you want to eat my buns?"
"Thank you, no need, I brought it with me," Tang Yue said after hearing his conscious refusal.
Hearing what Xiao Jun said to Tang Yue, everyone looked over. Xiao Jun noticed that the atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and asked calmly, "What's the matter? Is there any problem?" Everyone shook their heads in unison, then lowered their heads to eat breakfast, as if they were eating some precious seafood.
If Xiao Jun hadn't asked this question, Tang Yue wouldn't have thought anything of it. But when he asked, and looking at everyone's looks, Tang Yue felt something was wrong, but she didn't say anything. Maybe they just said it unintentionally, so she didn't take it to heart.
Tang Yue sat down and took out a steamed bun to eat. She put the hot sauce and braised pork slices on the table and asked everyone to eat. Everyone took a chopstick to eat politely. Zhao Yingying was the most lively and said, "Tang Yue, your cooking skills are really good. It's so delicious."
Tang Yue felt guilty after hearing this, but she could only bite the bullet and say, "If you like it, eat more. When we get to the countryside, buy some meat and I'll cook it for you."
Xiao Jun had been watching Tang Yue out of the corner of his eye, and he noticed that Tang Yue's face looked a little strange, but he didn't think much about it, thinking that she was just embarrassed to be praised by others. He could only say that this was a wonderful misunderstanding.
After the meal, he put the dishes away and put them in his backpack. He chatted with everyone for a while. Feeling a little sleepy, he leaned on the table, closed his eyes, and entered the space with his mental power. He first fed the pigs, cattle, and sheep, and then the rabbits, chickens, ducks, and geese. He picked up fifteen eggs. He didn't want to feed the fish in the river anymore. He fed a lot last time, and now they haven't finished eating. He controlled the river water to make a light rain. After finishing his work, Tang Yue didn't stay any longer. He immediately left the space and went to sleep.
Tang Yue slept until noon. She was very tired and dizzy. Zhao Yingying, who was standing beside her, saw Tang Yue wake up and greeted her, "Tang Yue, you're awake. How was your sleep?"
"It's okay, I'm just a little confused," Tang Yue replied. Tang Yue didn't know that this expression of hers was a cute foul in the eyes of others.
After Tang Yue woke up, she heard Zhao Yingying and the others discussing what to eat for lunch. After hearing the news that the lunch car had braised pork, the line was so long that it blocked the road to the car. Don't think this is an exaggeration. Nowadays, you have to buy anything you want during the Spring Festival with a ticket, and each person is limited to one kilogram of meat per month, so it is even more difficult for rural residents to eat meat.
"Do you want to go? There are so many people there, you probably won't be able to buy anything. I still have some braised meat here. It will go bad if you don't eat it after so many days. You can take it and eat it."
"No, no, we're just discussing it," Zhao Yingying replied quickly.
"Yeah, we just didn't expect that there would be meat for sale on the bus," Zhu Xiaoqin also responded.
"Maybe it was delivered when the car stopped at the previous stop," Xiao Jun interjected.
"Oh," Tang Yue responded, took out the food from her backpack, and ate with everyone. "Everyone, eat more. The weather is too hot. If you don't finish eating, it will go bad. It would be a pity to throw it away."
Xiao Jun picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and said, "Thank you Yueyue, it's delicious."
When Tang Yue heard him calling her Yueyue, her face turned red, and she stared at Xiao Jun. The people next to her also jokingly said "Thank you Yueyue". Tang Yue was embarrassed and glared at Xiao Jun. Tang Yue didn't know the power of her glare. The glare from her fairy-like appearance was more lethal than the winks from others. But she didn't realize it yet. Xiao Jun covered his chest and was almost killed by Tang Yue's glare. He called her "fairy" in his heart.
"Please ask Xiao Zhiqing to meet me, Tang Zhiqing or Comrade Tang. We are not that familiar with each other yet, so I don't want you to meet me, Yueyue." Tang Yue directly rejected him. They were not that familiar with each other.
A strange color flashed across Liu Wen's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Tang Yue felt embarrassed by the teasing and tried to keep a straight face and said, "Let's eat quickly. Comrade Xiao didn't mean it." After saying that, she took out the steamed bun and pretended to be calm and ate it.
Everyone saw Tang Yue start to eat and stopped teasing her. This was the quietest meal they had. After lunch, Tang Yue leaned against the window and closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. Her mental power instantly entered the space and fed everything with a mouth. In the orchard, Tang Yue found that the fruit trees were beginning to bloom. Each tree had only a few flowers, but when they bloomed the second time, there would be more.
Tang Yue's mental power went directly into the yard and continued watching the previous episode of the TV series in the living room. She would go out after watching for two hours, fearing that she would get too tired after watching for too long.
As soon as Tang Yue opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Jun opposite her staring at her, and others were staring at Xiao Jun. Tang Yue touched her face and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my face?"
"No, I just think you're pretty," Xiao Jun answered like a pervert, and instantly realized what he had just said after answering.
Xiao Jun's answer made everyone silent for a while. No one had realized that Xiao Jun seemed to be so stupid before. Zhang Jianguo recalled the Xiao Jun in the compound and compared him with the current Xiao Jun, and came to the conclusion that he was still the same person, but his brain had run away from home and ran to the other side. He was considered a brother who had never looked back.
Tang Yue...
Tang Yue didn't know what to say, so she could only pretend she didn't hear anything. Suddenly, she felt like time was taking so long.
Time passed while we were chatting and laughing. We planned to go to the dining car for dinner. The four girls agreed to go together and wait until we came back before the boys would eat. We chatted and laughed all the way until we got there. We ordered a bowl of dumplings stuffed with cabbage, which were delicious. The chef’s skills were quite good. After we finished eating, we went back and the boys would eat.
Tang Yue sat in the car and looked at the sunset outside the window. She watched quietly and found that this year was still a beautiful sight, but it lacked a pair of eyes that were good at discovering it.
