From afar, he watched as smoke curled up from the village, interweaving and enveloping it. The distant mountains and forests were lush and green, and the whole scene was peaceful and tranquil. Chu Xi's heart, which had been wandering outside, instantly calmed down...
This is the feeling of home, especially when she thought of her parents being here, the feeling of wanting to go back became even stronger!
I found a place far away to change bikes, loaded up with small stones, and prepared some meat, dried fruit snacks, and fruits in advance. It was a rare trip, so I had to find an opportunity to get some food to go, to lay the foundation for taking out these things later...
A large bag was tied to one side of the bicycle's back seat, and Little Shitou was sitting on a simple child seat on the front bar that was specially customized by a village carpenter. It was also his favorite place to sit, where he could go out and play while having his mother accompany him.
Without staying outside for too long, Chu Xi soon arrived at the village entrance, which was of course also the location of the village's "intelligence station". From a distance, he saw three or five middle-aged women standing there, and no one knew what they were talking about every day.
Chu Xi didn't say anything, and just passed by with Little Stone in his car, even raising a cloud of dust...
It was because they were originally happy and excited when they saw an "old member" of the intelligence station, Old Lady Shi, who was staring at them with resentment, as if she had some deep hatred.
After all, she had been away from home for many days, and many things had happened in the village that she was unaware of. In particular, Liao Wenbo had gone to the county town for several days after Chu Xi left, so under the misleading guidance of some people with ulterior motives, things had changed...
But no matter how intense the atmosphere in the village was, Chu Xi wasn't there. Even if she knew, she wouldn't care, and she wouldn't be able to feel the scene carefully planned by the "evil man". So the person behind it was like punching the air with all his might...
This made Old Lady Shi, who was so self-righteous and thought no one knew she was the mastermind behind the rumors, feel so choked up. She felt like she couldn't breathe smoothly for several days, and her mood was even worse...
Not to mention, her spoiled daughter happened to fall in love with the male protagonist of the scandal, and she was slapped in the face every day...
The male protagonist of the scandal, Liao Wenbo, simply avoids his own daughter, and his contempt and disdain seem to be written all over his face!
What the villagers and the educated youth who went to the countryside saw was that this thick-skinned woman who wanted to cling to Liao Zhiqing all the time was being treated like a piece of trash by others, but she still refused to give up. Everyone understood that this was really a toad wanting to eat swan meat...
So, after being pestered by her precious daughter for many days, Old Lady Shi simply hated this "deserving death" Chu Xi! It was all her fault, the root of all the trouble!
Chu Xi, who had escaped the "dung beetle", felt better as he watched his home getting closer and closer! This was his real home, a warm harbor!
But what is that black object by the wall? In the distance, behind my own courtyard wall, there seems to be a black object on the road, and it seems to be shaking...
Because of the angle, Chu Xi didn't see it very clearly, but he began to be alert in his heart. He hadn't been home for many days, and he didn't think that some blind creature would appear again.
Before getting close to his yard, Chu Xi stopped the bicycle far away and let Xiao Shitou stand on the ground. Children need to move around after sitting in the bicycle for a long time.
Carrying Xiao Shitou, he slowly approached the yard. When he arrived at the gate, Chu Xi saw that it was actually a human head?
Well, a human head still growing on a human body...
"Isn't this someone who's got his hands on my things? Seeing me back, is he planning something to entertain me?"
Chu Xi muttered to herself as she opened the gate and looked at the large lock she had found. It looked like no one had entered the courtyard through the main gate in a while. She just wondered if anyone had climbed over the wall...
Chu Xi weighed the padlock in his hand. It was quite heavy. He wondered if it could kill someone if he hit them with it. After all, the head was quite fragile. If it hit someone by mistake, there would be a big hole in the head...
After thinking for a moment, Chu Xi directly picked up a stick behind the door and threw it over. After all, he didn't know whether this person was good or bad. If he wrongly accused him, it would be embarrassing. Hitting him with the stick shouldn't hurt too much...
Behind the wall, Liao Wenbo was reading a pamphlet, completely absorbed. For some reason, he seemed to like this spot. Whenever he was here, he felt at peace, immersed in his reading, and everything he did was twice as effective with half the effort...
Since he came back from the county last time, he would occasionally come here for a while to read a book, and sometimes he would even bring a small stool and sit on the roadside, of course under someone else's courtyard wall.
There was no one at Chu Xi's home during this period. Although the villagers were curious about why he was sitting on the roadside, they did not discuss it too much. Only Shi Xiu understood that Liao Zhiqing could not let go of his third sister-in-law. He was angry and helpless, and he entangled with Liao Wenbo for a long time because of this.
He knew his heart deeply, but he also knew the reality that it was impossible for him and her to be together...
But I still can't stop myself from walking here, often unconsciously coming here, I don't know if it's because I want to see that figure, longing for that gentle and sweet smile and pleasant and soft voice...
Today, as usual, I came to the courtyard wall, holding a small booklet in my hand. However, a harmonious and warm picture appeared in my mind. In the picture, it was Chu Xi gently and peacefully guiding and educating Xiao Shitou...
But suddenly, he heard a series of rapid "woooooo..." sounds, not like what should be heard in this mountain village, nor the sounds he often heard. It was quite similar to the sound made by long sticks in martial arts movies...
In a flash, Liao Wenbo, who had just become slightly interested in the strange sound, looked up and saw a black object rushing towards him...
At this time, Chu Xi's profound skills were also seen. The top stick hit Liao Wenbo's forehead very accurately. In an instant, a red bump bulged up.
“Ah! Ah!”
Even the most outstanding man would cry out in surprise at such unexpected pain, let alone a guy with a face as thick as a city wall, who had long forgotten what face was. He hurriedly touched it with his hands, but the moment he touched it, he grimaced in pain again!
In an instant, he looked fiercely in the direction where the wooden stick came from, and was about to vent his anger!
But he saw a beautiful face with a cherry-like mouth slightly opened, looking at him in surprise, and the round eyebrows seemed to be showing off its cuteness...
Liao Wenbo was stunned. The figure he had been thinking about day and night suddenly appeared in front of him. His mind seemed to be blank and he couldn't react at all.
"She, she's back!"
He was instantly overwhelmed with incomparable excitement, and for a moment he didn't know how to express his feelings. His face was filled with joy and his mouth was wide open, unable to close. It only showed that his happiness was beyond words...
