The old lady liked Jiang He very much. She talked about it for a while and then pulled Mu Ruanruan to discuss it together.
Mu Ruanruan really didn't want to talk about anything related to him, so she found an excuse to slip away.
"Teacher Mu, come over when you're done. The meal will be ready soon."
When the old man saw Mu Ruanruan walking out of the yard, he asked her if she had any problems. Mu Ruanruan gave him that excuse, and the old man reminded her to remember to come back for dinner.
"It's okay, you don't have to wait for me."
The weather was sunny just now, but now it is covered with dark clouds.
Fortunately, it was not summer, so the rain would not fall so quickly. Mu Ruanruan did not care too much about it. It was just a drizzle at most.
She had something on her mind, so she walked aimlessly, passed through the narrow path, and stepped onto the main road in the village.
A drizzle was already falling, as biting as ice. She didn't bring an umbrella, and she didn't even think about going into the space to buy one. She just kept walking.
After walking along a road, she passed Wang Yue'e's house, which was empty and dark, and then passed Jiang Lan's house. She didn't turn around to look.
My heart started beating violently. The shadow on the left was Jiang He's house.
Although I tried not to look, I couldn't help but glance at it out of the corner of my eye and saw that the door was open.
Is he at home?
Mu Ruanruan wanted to run over, but her feet were out of control and she walked even slower.
The drizzle became heavier and heavier, and it began to feel like a summer rainstorm.
Mu Ruanruan's hair and clothes were almost soaked.
"Come in and take shelter."
The sound seemed to come from far away. Mu Ruanruan suspected it was her illusion and ignored it.
She kept thinking about what Aunt Peng said, about Grandpa Jiang He, and about what Jiang He did for Aunt Peng. She suddenly felt some pity for him. How could such a good person have such a background?
As I was sighing, a black thing suddenly appeared above my head.
She suddenly looked up. A bamboo hat?
"Why are you sighing?" Jiang He put the bamboo hat on her head and said, "Put it on."
He was a head taller than her, and Mu Ruanruan could not see his face because of the cover of his hat.
Hold the edge of the hat with your fingers to keep it straight.
"It's raining so hard, and you don't even hold an umbrella. Your hobby is quite unique." He teased.
She ignored him.
Things were almost done, and Mu Ruanruan felt that the day of her departure was just around the corner, with an indescribable emotion welling up in her heart.
This emotion made her unable to eat or sleep well, made her feel very annoyed, and even began to shake her determination to return to the city.
It's credible. She has already sent it out. My family is making arrangements for it.
As soon as she found out the truth, she quickly wrote the letter and sent it out as if she was afraid of regretting it.
In this situation, Mu Ruanruan felt that it would be better for the two of them not to meet.
She felt a lot more relaxed when she couldn't see his face, and she didn't have to guess what he was thinking when she couldn't see his expression.
But even if you saw his face, you probably wouldn't be able to guess it, because he never reveals his thoughts.
She sighed imperceptibly again: "I forgot to bring it."
"Go back."
She took a few steps and couldn't help but look back at him, only to see his back.
His body was covered in mud, which was washed down by the rain like gullies. He gave her his hat and ran into the house in the rain.
The rain was getting heavier. I didn't wear boots when I went out this morning, and now my cotton shoes were soaked through. My toes were so cold and painful from soaking in the icy water.
I have to go back quickly to change my shoes and warm myself by the fire.
The hat was also cold, and she was reluctant to wear it. At this time, she had already remembered that there was an umbrella in her space, but now she couldn't leave the hat behind.
Borrowing things is the most troublesome thing, because you have to return them after you borrow them.
It was raining just now, and he used it to cover his vision. Did he do the same when she was still there?
Holding this hot potato in her hand, Mu Ruanruan returned home, took a shower, changed her clothes, pants and shoes. Still feeling not warm enough, she boiled some water while sitting on the quilt and blowing her hair.
It took a while to get warmer.
After soaking my feet, I began to feel comfortable from head to toe.
It was difficult to warm up by the fire in the dormitory and there was no heating, so she bought a small electric stove and placed it at her feet.
Turning on the electric stove, she picked up a book and opened it. After reading a few pages, she remembered that she had not eaten lunch and was a little hungry.
I'm going to the space to buy a box of self-heating rice.
Beep beep beep.
"Teacher Mu, dinner is ready. Are you done with your work?" Uncle Peng said loudly at the door.
Mu Ruanruan quickly opened the door and let him in to warm her up. It was raining so hard, and he came to invite her to dinner. She didn't want to go at first, but seeing Uncle Peng's expectant face, Mu Ruanruan couldn't say no.
There's no need to pack. Just change into a pair of thick boots, put on a scarf, grab an umbrella and go out with Uncle Peng.
"You're so polite! It's so cold, rainy, and the environment is so harsh, and you're not afraid of falling, yet you come all the way here to call me."
"It's only a few steps. The conditions during the march were truly harsh, but no one complained about the hardship."
The two of them talked as they walked.
Uncle Peng joined the army in his early years, and Mu Ruanruan wanted to find out about the situation at that time, but because Peng Fei's matter had such a great impact on the couple, they never mentioned it.
Now that the old man brought it up, Mu Ruanruan asked about her own affairs.
The food was already cold, so the aunt reheated it. The three of them ate quickly and put down their chopsticks. The uncle said, "Bring it here, let me see it."
Mu Ruanruan knew that he was asking about the photos.
As early as two months ago, Mu Ruanruan came to their house and mentioned that she wanted to ask them about something. Although Uncle Peng ignored her at that time, he kept it in mind.
This photo is not the one in Li Dazhu's hand.
