Reborn I just want to concentrate on studying

The weather has just rained, although the sun is out, it doesn't look particularly sunny.

A tributary of the Yangtze River named Baishui River came from far away and flowed by the village named Yanzi Township.

Living by the water has been a tradition for many years.

The river is not blindly clear, because it rained yesterday, the river looks turbid today, but this turbidity will not be turbid to the end, the central part looks like a yellowish green color, when it reaches This color becomes lighter by the river, and it is already a transparent color when it reaches the bank.

Zhao Yuee was standing by the river washing mops.

Because my father went out to work, there was some problem with the water pipe that was just installed a little while ago, and no one repaired it. Anyway, the Baishui River is only tens of meters away from home. It is convenient to wash the mop here.

Zhao Yue'e sang softly while washing the mop, and seemed to be in a good mood.

It is indeed good.

A while ago, my mother found a restaurant in the county town to work as a dishwasher. She worked for three months, but the wages were delayed. It was only yesterday that I finally got the money. I got 4600 yuan in three months. The family was nervous. The economy can ease up a little bit.

As soon as she got the money, her mother asked Zhao Yue'e to call Yi Yang, planning to pay back part of his money first.

Zhao Yue'e was also very sad because she owed Yi Yang money all the time.

Because he owed money, after meeting Yi Yang several times at school, he was too embarrassed to say hello to him.

Naturally, he also understood that Yi Yang probably wouldn't embarrass her because of this, and he didn't even mention it for such a long time after borrowing the money.

But the mood is very touching and guilty, like a stone is always stuck there in the chest, which makes people quite unhappy.

Even if they get acquainted with Yi Yang at the beginning, they can calmly follow him for a little food, but when the amount owed reaches a certain level, they can't continue to be so calm no matter what.

At this time, if I can pay back 2000 yuan to Yi Yang first, the depressing feeling will be relieved.

After washing the mop and pulling it out, Zhao Yue'e stepped back.

In fact, there is some fear and hatred towards this Baishui River.

I can still clearly remember that it was probably in the second grade.

At that time, their family’s conditions were much worse than they are now. At that time, they didn’t even have a decent pen. For a long time, they used a ballpoint pen core inserted into a bamboo joint, and used it as a pen.

At that time, what she longed for most was to have a pen of her own.

On her birthday, her father picked up a lot of wild willow fungus on the mountain and sold them in the city for a little money. When he was happy, he bought her a pen worth three yuan.

Zhao Yue'e was so excited that she didn't sleep all night.

She really liked that pen.

For a week, I was even reluctant to write with that pen, and would carefully wipe it many times every day. I usually used a ballpoint pen refill inserted into the bamboo joint to write, but I used it once for the exam one day.

Students in the village with better conditions said that the pen must be washed after use, otherwise the ink will clog the pen.

At that time, there was no running water in the house.

When she returned home after the exam that day, she took the pen to the Baishui River and cleaned it carefully, but one of them lost its grip and the pen slipped and fell into the Baishui River.

She hurried to catch it, but almost in an instant, the pen was swallowed by the river and disappeared without a trace.

Tears instantly blurred the eyes.

That day, she squatted by the river alone and cried for a long time, scolding herself for being so careless, and then thinking of how hard her father made money...

This incident became a pain in Zhao Yue'e's heart, a scar that she couldn't help thinking of every time she passed by.

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from the ear.

"Yue'e!"

Turning around, it was indeed Yi Yang, standing on the embankment looking at her.

Zhao Yue'e hurriedly ran up the steps by the river, and the mop dripped down a water path.

"You're here!"

Yi Yang looked Zhao Yue'e up and down, and said, "You seem to have grown taller again."

After hearing Yi Yang's words, Zhao Yue'e was not so happy. She lowered her head and looked at her trousers... The trousers were much shorter, and she looked like cropped trousers.

It grows too fast, and the clothes from last year can no longer be worn. For Zhao Yue'e, this is a sad thing.

Zhao Yue'e said, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Oh, not yet."

"Then go to our house to eat."

"Okay."

It was just after noon, and Yi Yang asked curiously: "Has your family not had lunch yet?"

Zhao Yuee said: "I'm busy in the morning... Mom and I went to the mountain to get some pigweed, and after we came back, we cleaned two empty rooms..."

"Two empty rooms?"

"I piled up some sundries before, and tidied them up."

"Oh."

"Well, this time I can only pay you back 2000 temporarily..." Zhao Yue'e had already said it on the phone, but she couldn't help but repeat it at this time, and then lowered her head: "Mom earns this money... very hard .”

Yi Yang shook his head: "I didn't come here today to ask for money."

At this moment, Zhao Yue'e noticed that Yi Yang was carrying a big bag in his hand.

After saying this, Yi Yang took another thing out of his arms and handed it to Zhao Yue'e.

Zhao Yue'e held the mop in one hand, and took it in doubt with the other, slightly startled: "This..."

A delicate pink fountain pen.

Yi Yang said: "Two days ago I went to the provincial capital to take an exam. I didn't bring a pen. I planned to buy an emergency pen at the stationery store next to the school. But just now all other colored pens are sold out, and only this pink one is left. But I had no choice but to buy it.”

"I am a big boy, how can I use a pink pen, I will give it to you."

Zhao Yue'e was stunned for a moment, hesitated, and shook her head: "This... I'm sorry."

Yi Yang couldn't help but return it to her: "You're welcome, if you don't want it, I'll just throw it away, anyway, I don't know how to use pink pens."

When Zhao Yue'e heard that Yi Yang was so wasteful, she said: "Don't throw it away, don't throw it away, if you want to throw it away...then I'll keep it..."

Only then did Yi Yang nodded in satisfaction.

Naturally, this pen was not bought as Yi Yang said.

It was the last time I saw that the paint on Zhao Yue'e's pen was almost peeled off, and the water kept running out of water when writing, so I bought it for her when I was wandering around Hanning City. Buying it, the little girl must have a psychological burden, so she just lied casually.

Zhao Yue'e was very happy, because Yi Yang said that she would lose the pen anyway, so she didn't have any psychological burden, but she was still very grateful to him.

Putting the pen into her pocket, Zhao Yuee asked curiously, "What does a stationery store in the provincial capital look like?"

"It's a little bigger than the one in front of our school, but that's about it."

Zhao Yue'e had never been to the provincial capital, and even her elementary school was in a rural elementary school, so she seldom even went to the county town before entering junior high school.

After hearing Yi Yang's words, Zhao Yue'e couldn't help asking: "What is Hanning City like?"

"A place full of people."

"Hate...doesn't that mean you didn't say anything?"

Yi Yang turned around and smiled: "You will be admitted to university in the future, just go and see for yourself and you will know."

"University..." Zhao Yue'e had longing in her eyes, as well as some helplessness.

so far.

The two returned home.Zhao Xiulan was cooking for the pigs. Firewood was lit under the tripod outside the kitchen. Inside an iron bucket, the rough and rotten cornmeal specially used to feed pigs was mixed into a paste, mixed with half of the pig grass, and boiled in this way.

Seeing Yi Yang and Zhao Yue'e coming back, Zhao Xiulan quickly put down the things in her hands and came up to meet them.

Naturally, he knew Yi Yang.

Zhao Xiulan is an honest peasant woman with a gentle and introverted personality. She usually doesn't chew people's tongues. Even when some women at the entrance of the village gossip loudly, she will consciously avoid them.

So she mostly heard about Yi Yang from her sister Zhao Jinhua.

As Yi Yang's aunt, Zhao Jinhua naturally likes him very much now.

But before Yi Yang got better, for a long time, her attitude towards Yi Yang was that she had to take care of her family relationship, but she was also afraid that he would spoil her Xiao Chuan.

Later, I watched Yi Yang change little by little, and now it can be said to be the pride of the entire Yi family.

The change in attitude towards Yi Yang is naturally reflected in the external remarks.

Zhao Xiulan doesn't like to listen to outsiders' gossip, so most of her impressions of Yi Yang come from her sister's narration. From Zhao Jinhua's mouth, she also roughly understands Yi Yang's journey as a prodigal son.

Of course, for uneducated people like them, after all, it's nothing more than "sensible... I used to be young..."

Sensible is Zhao Xiulan's first impression of Yi Yang.

The second impression is... the family conditions are very good.

Naturally, Yi Yang's family conditions are not worth mentioning to Jiang Lili, and even Luo Luoyue and Luo Bing in the county, but for a family like Zhao Xiulan, it is already extremely rich.

Living in the county seat, owning a house, having a facade, doing nothing for a year, and earning [-] to [-] yuan.

Facing such a "rich man", it seems that he can find a suitable reason to explain his stubbornness in the past.

If you have money, you will not be so obedient...

How do you say that word... braggadocio?
Therefore, Yi Yang's subsequent transformation is even more precious.

Now, Yi Yang has become the creditor of the family, and Zhao Xiulan's mentality is even shorter when facing this boy who is only over 16 years old, so she hastily put down what she was doing and came back to life.

While wiping her hands with her apron, Zhao Xiulan greeted Yi Yang: "Xiao Yang... Come in and sit!"

Yi Yang quickly said: "Auntie, you are busy with your work."

Zhao Xiulan thought that this child was really polite, so she asked Zhao Yue'e to bring Yi Yang in.

When the two children left Yiyang, Zhao Xiulan hurried back to the side of the pig food, continued to stir it with a shovel, and when she saw that it was almost cooked, she took a rag to rest her hands, lifted the pig food down, and moved towards the pigsty went.

On the other side, Yi Yang also followed Zhao Yue'e to the main room.

It's not the first time I come here, but I still feel a little sad every time I come here.

The main room in the country is actually a place mixed with kitchen, dining room and living room.

The main room is not too big. There is an iron stove in the center. Because it is midsummer, there is no fire. There are two benches on both sides of the stove. The stools are tied with a layer of sponge cushions, which are more comfortable to sit on than hard stools.

On the side is a stove, which is also available at my uncle’s house, but last year it has been replaced with a biogas stove, and occasionally even a gas tank is used when the biogas is not enough.

Next to the stove is a cupboard, made of wood, it can be seen that it has been used for many years, but it has been wiped clean.

Zhao Yue'e hesitated for a moment, and said, "Well, why don't you just sit down first."

"What about you?"

"There are two rooms, and there is still a little that hasn't been cleaned."

"I'll help you."

"Oh, how can this work!"

Yi Yang said, "Why not?"

"You are a guest..."

"If you don't let me go, you look down on me."

"Hate it, where are you like this?"

Yi Yang chuckled, took the mop from her hand, and said, "Stop talking nonsense, take me there."

Zhao Yue'e was stunned for a moment, then snorted: "You..."

She actually understood Yi Yang's temper a little bit, once she decided to do something, there was a high probability that she would not be as stubborn as him, so she stopped insisting and took Yi Yang to those two rooms.

Zhao Yue'e and her mother had almost cleaned up, but there were still some dust and debris that hadn't been cleaned up, so it wasn't very busy.

In rural houses, there will be a musty smell in the house, but it smells good. Yi Yang doesn't know how to describe it, and Zhao Yue'e's house also has it.

He observed the two rooms and asked, "What are you going to use these two rooms for?"

Zhao Yue'e said: "I haven't thought about it yet...heh, I told my mother that there is actually nothing at home."

Yi Yang was slightly taken aback, and stopped talking.

After cleaning the two rooms, Zhao Xiulan also fed the pigs. Seeing that the two were not in the main room, she came in and took a look, and saw Yi Yang helping with the cleaning, and complained to her daughter: "Why did you let Yi Yang do these jobs?" Son……"

However, the impression of Yi Yang in my heart is even better.

After finishing all this work, Zhao Yue'e asked Zhao Xiulan to rest, and she came to cook.

Yi Yang enthusiastically expressed that he would come to help, and said boldly: "I am a chef..."

Zhao Yue'e giggled and said, "If you really can't take it easy, help me get some firewood..."

The children of poor families are in charge early.

Yi Yang was a little surprised by Zhao Yue'e's ability.

Cutting vegetables and meat, heating a pan with oil, cooking, stir-frying... a series of operations that Yi Yang has only seen with grandma and second aunt who cook all the year round.

Soon, the meal will be ready.

In order to entertain Yi Yang, Zhao Yue'e specially cut half of bacon and fried a slice of bacon and potatoes.

Zhao Xiulan felt that Yi Yang was a well-off young man from the county, and she was afraid that he might not be used to her own food, so she said, "Yue'e, let's go to the small store at the entrance of the village to buy a can of canned fish..."

Yi Yang quickly said no need, stood up and pressed Zhao Yue'e's head, so that the meal could be served smoothly.

After eating for a while, while chatting about some messy topics, Zhao Xiulan hesitated several times, hesitated, got up and took something wrapped in a handkerchief from the back, and said, "Yiyang... thank you For the 5000 yuan that I borrowed from our family, we will repay you 2000 yuan today, do you think it’s okay..."

While speaking, he opened the handkerchief, and there was a stack of red banknotes.

Yi Yang sighed, slowly pushed the money over, and said, "Auntie, to be honest, I didn't come here today for the money."

Afterwards, Yi Yang got up and took the big bag over, saying, "On the contrary, I have something for you, Auntie."

As he spoke, he took out the sleeping pillow that he made himself.

PS: I was a little sad when I heard the news of the death of a writer yesterday.

Recently, my physical condition is a bit poor, and exercising can't save my cervical spine at all... The main reason is that the speed of coding is too slow. It takes more than four hours to sit down, and my head is groggy. Let's make a small explosion in two days, at least to make up the chapters of the two leaders... At present, it seems to be completely impossible.

Constant updating is my last stubbornness... Thank you for your tolerance and understanding! (clasping fists)
