“Brother, it’s been almost a year since you left the Miao village. Tan County often comes here.”
After seeing that Achen had hung up the phone, Duoduo said, "I heard from my clan elders and uncles that County Tan is very concerned about the affairs of our Miao village."
Duoduo, sitting in the middle of the back seat, craned her neck and said to Achen again:
“Brother, the Miao village has changed a lot! When we came back from our monthly leave last month, it was the harvest season for the sacred fruit. The Miao village was very lively at this time.”
Ah Chen couldn't possibly be unaware of what was happening in the Miao village.
But Duoduo was very excited because all the branches said that it was all because of her brother.
"Brother, when are you going back now that you're back?"
Duoduo thought that her brother was so busy that he probably wouldn't stay long after returning this time.
Because when my sister-in-law came back last time, she said that my brother was very busy.
But Ah Chen said, "Brother, since there's nothing particularly important for you to do this time, you won't be going out."
"Really, my brother?"
"From now on, Brother will accompany our Duoduo as she grows up."
"Brother--"
Duoduo's eyes reddened. She sat up and gave Achen a small peck on the cheek.
This little girl, doesn't she realize she's already growing up?
Ah Chen turned around and glanced at Duo Duo.
Duoduo asked again, "When is your sister-in-law coming back?"
The three of them chatted and laughed throughout the journey.
However, it was mostly Duoduo who did the talking. She was telling Achen and Ayin about the Miao village and the school while gesturing.
Anyway, the little girl in the back seat, --
The crisp sound was described vividly.
Of course, after telling Achen and the others about the Miao village, she also asked Achen about his life outside.
In response, Ah Chen specifically picked out the fun things to talk about.
"Brother, is that all?"
"That's all, isn't it?"
"And what about your injury?"
Forehead--
Ah Chen was stunned for a moment.
Ayin asked, "Duo, how did you know that Brother Achen was injured?"
"I knew it, my brother wouldn't tell me this—"
Duoduo pouted her little lips.
soon--
About three or four hundred meters from the cement road entrance to the Miao village, there was a traffic jam.
"Brother, the field here is already set up!"
"Look, aren't there many more stalls selling things now?"
"There are gas stations and even larger car washes over there."
…
Duoduo quickly introduced Achen to him.
The road here is no longer the muddy road that Ah Chen left last year.
Instead, it's a wide asphalt road.
now--
Not every vehicle needs to be washed when entering a Miao village.
But there were roadblocks, --
Vehicles not belonging to Miao villages and not visiting relatives and friends are no longer charged tolls, but they still need to register.
also--
On this side of the intersection, there are still police officers maintaining order.
From a distance, it looks like a small town.
Because there are many more houses nearby, all of them are wooden buildings.
There were many people.
now--
The sun had already set!
The red clouds in the west seemed to be nestled among the mountains, which was very beautiful.
The scenery on the side connecting to Daobeizhai is even more beautiful.
Ah Chen drove his car to the roadblock, and as he entered the concrete road—
In front and to the sides, the busy people are mostly Miao people dressed in Miao costumes.
Judging from the Miao clothing, most of them belong to the Blue Miao lineage.
At the roadblock, there were a dozen or so Miao men wearing Miao knives.
Ah Chen passed by, and none of them even noticed that the driver was Ah Chen.
This saved Ah Chen some trouble.
There were even more vehicles on the cement road.
Along the way, Ah Chen and his companions encountered trucks coming out, but fortunately, a new section of road had been built every 500 meters for passing vehicles.
otherwise--
This blockage is really troublesome.
"Brother, look! There are patches and patches of fruitwort. Isn't it beautiful when it blooms?"
“Brother, the pheasants over in Qingmiao are even more beautiful. I went to see them and even caught a few of the most beautiful roosters.”
"But I was going to pay, but the auntie over there refused, saying that if I paid, they wouldn't give me the pheasant."
"Also, the clump of fruit-heart grass in the deep mountains, which is under very strict management, is even more beautiful."
…
Duoduo then told Achen a few more things in a rapid-fire manner.
Ah Chen smiled.
Ayin said, "Duo, of course Qingmiao won't charge you. Those pheasants were all given to them by Brother Achen to raise."
“I know that, brother!”
Duoduo turned around, took out more than a dozen hundred-yuan bills from her underwear, and waved them in front of Achen.
"Brother, it's a bonus!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Duoduo was about to give it to Achen, saying, "The school gave it to me, but in the end, it was all you, brother, who provided the money."
Ah Chen smiled and gestured for Duo Duo to put it away!
Twenty minutes later--
Night began to fall.
Ah Chen and his group finally arrived at the mountainside opposite Que Dong Village.
Quedong Village is still as beautiful as ever.
The stilted houses are built into the mountainside in a staggered and orderly fashion.
A corner of Que Dongzhai --
The scattered, faint lights seemed to echo the stars in the sky.
It has formed an unparalleled and beautiful picture without us even realizing it.
Ah Chen's car was moving very slowly.
His gaze slowly shifted from Que Dong Village to the right—
Beyond the mountains lies Black Crow Village.
And on the mountaintop, above the Star Fruit Forest, surprisingly—
From the foot of the mountain all the way up, it seems that new streetlights have been installed along the entire route.
Although the lights were dim, it was a rare sight in this era.
After Ah Chen and his group arrived at the crossroads near Que Dong Village--
