Xie Yan took a look and said, "Indeed."
Taozhi felt that this memory would definitely become their most beautiful memory in the future.
As the sun sets, Taozhi leans against him and asks, "Xie Yan, can you sing?"
Xie Yan pedaled his bicycle: "No."
Taozhi tilted her head and looked at him: "I don't believe it, sing a song for me."
Xie Yan thought for a moment and said, "Then shall I sing the national anthem for you?"
That's all he knows.
"Hahaha." Taozhi sat in the soft back seat: "That song is for the motherland, sing one for your partner."
Xie Yan felt a little embarrassed. When he started singing, Ergou was so scared that he ran away.
What if you scare your partner away?
"Let me think about how to sing it." Xie Yan thought so, and kept thinking...
He didn't start singing until he reached a deserted mountain road.
He cleared his throat: "The sun sets in the west, the clouds are red, the soldiers are returning to the camp after target practice, returning to the camp..."
Taozhi: “???” Is this a love song???
But she didn't interrupt his song. This song was very popular recently. Although it had been released for ten months, it was still very popular among them.
Almost all men can sing this song. Everyone has a yearning for the army and always says that a real man should defend his country.
So most people wear army green clothes.
Taozhi couldn't help laughing, but Xie Yan's voice was very pleasant, deep but with his own flavor.
Although it's not a love song, he sings it well.
Taozhi sat in the back row and listened with a smile in her eyes.
When I finished singing, I left the village entrance and met a lot of people there.
Xie Yan, on the other hand, rode by on his bike with a clear conscience.
"Taozhi, wait a moment." Secretary Chen saw them coming back and quickly stopped Taozhi.
Taozhi's good mood disappeared because many people were staring at her bicycle.
"Hey, Taozhi's back? Riding a bicycle?" Li Dongmei said sarcastically, "Xie Yan stole it, right? Be careful not to get caught by Qian'an."
Xie Yan glanced at her and said, "I won't be caught. But you, you're ugly and you come out to scare people. Even Qi'an is afraid to catch you."
Li Dongmei's face darkened: "You——"
"Secretary." Taozhi got off the bicycle: "What's wrong?"
Secretary Chen looked at her with a smile: "We had a meeting the other day. I know that your Women's Federation will go to learn about tractor training tomorrow."
Taozhi nodded: "Yes."
Secretary Chen smiled and said, "Mr. Su came the other day and said he would repair this road along the way. Our primary school will start construction tomorrow. Your house is almost done, right? Would you like to ask the old master to take a look at it for you?"
"No need." Taozhi thought that she had originally decided to live in the house herself, because only with a house could she get a household registration.
It's so strict here.
So even though the branch secretary made an exception and got her a household registration, she still had to have a house.
"That's fine." Secretary Chen looked at Xie Yan and said, "Comrade Xie, have you and Taozhi decided on a date?"
He saw him go to Xiajiang Village a while ago, probably to see the date.
He smiled and said, "Look, at the beginning of next month, you have to come and help me."
"Of course!" Secretary Chen had an idea, which was to let Comrade Taozhi continue to do the work of the Women's Federation.
After all, it is difficult to find a comrade who is so dedicated and has no complaints.
"Taozhi and Xie Yan are getting married, congratulations!"
"You two are such a good match."
…
The other aunties watching smiled and said a few words.
Li Dongmei sneered, "Marriage? Ha, one can't have children, and the other is unlucky in marriage. Who knows, they might both die one day."
"Is there something wrong with your brain?" Taozhi hated people saying bad things about Xie Yan.
She turned to Li Dongmei, "Your son can't be the principal anymore, and you have no grandson either. Where do you get the confidence to keep talking down other people? Your brain is full of bullshit, so you're just letting it out of your mouth for others to smell? Don't you think your mouth stinks?"
Li Dongmei was furious: "You little bitch!"
Taozhi said: "You are the little hoof! You are an ugly, bad, nosy old woman!!"
Xie Yan stood by and did not participate in the quarrel between the women. After all, he was a scoundrel who liked to do things in a sneaky way.
Like breaking her son's legs or something...
Li Dongmei gritted her teeth: "You..."
"Alright, alright!" Secretary Chen quickly stopped Li Dongmei. He looked at Liu Guizhuang, who was smoking next to him and said, "Tell your wife to shut up. Comrade Taozhi is going to study tomorrow. If she's in a good mood, she can bring us a good tractor!"
"If the tractor is gone, you two will buy it for us!"
The villagers, who only cared about their own interests, were watching the two quarreling, but now they heard, "What the hell, tractor!"
From now on, they won’t have to ride that broken tractor that often breaks down on the road. They will have to walk to the city or walk back.
They ate three times a day, and they were all looking forward to the tractors given to them by their superiors.
"Li Dongmei, you are such a bad wife! You just pick on Taozhi and bully her."
"Li Dongmei, you are such a bad person! You just want to make our company have no cars!"
"Li Dongmei, please shut up."
…
Everyone accused her one by one. Li Dongmei wanted to say something, but Liu Guizhuang slapped her in the face and said, "Shut up."
Liu Guizhuang looked at Secretary Chen and said, "I'll take this damned woman back with me."
If he continues to make trouble now, he will no longer be able to be the village chief.
Li Dongmei had her face covered, but she didn't dare to resist.
Could only be dragged back.
"Secretary Chen, you can't say that." Xie Yan pushed the bicycle: "My daughter Taozhi hasn't gone to learn yet, so I'm not sure I can get this bicycle back."
If she is praised so much and the car is not recovered, these people will start to talk nonsense again.
"Yeah." Taozhi also looked at everyone: "Don't get your hopes up too much, this is my first time learning to drive, I may not be able to get it back."
Secretary Chen smiled and said, "That's right. I heard everyone has a chance. Just do your best."
The aunties laughed and said, "Yeah, just do your best. Come on, Taozhi."
"Yes, bring the tractor back. Our company hasn't had a vehicle in over ten days."
"My sister is getting married at the beginning of the month. Will I be able to make it back in time?"
"Taozhi and Xie Yan are getting married."
…
Taozhi smiled at the women and said, "I may not be able to get it back, so please stop praising me. By the way, Secretary Chen, what are you doing here?"
"Mr. Su came the other day and said there were problems with the school construction. He even asked you about it..." Secretary Chen glanced at Xie Yan and quickly explained, "You explained it well last time. Mr. Su said that if the road was repaired, it would be more convenient for everyone, and he wanted the villagers to help. So I asked everyone to come and take a look before anything else happens. We'll start digging the road tomorrow."
Taozhi nodded when she heard this: "I see."
Secretary Chen's face was full of smiles: "So everyone is happy. Once this road is built, it will give our children in the village the opportunity to leave the mountains."
Xie Yan thought this was feasible and decided to do it himself tomorrow. It would then be much more convenient for Taozhi to ride a bike back and forth.
He went to pick her up and could come back quickly.
Her legs won't be hurt by the shaking.
