Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 177 The ankles and neck are all black and chapped.

In the car, Wu Haiquan held the steering wheel with both hands and stepped on the accelerator with one foot, driving the Dongfeng truck forward.

This trip to Wanye Street is not far, only more than thirty miles. Although the road here is an old dirt road, it is covered with snow and looks normal, and the road is not very bumpy.

After hearing the words of Xu Ning and Li Fuqiang, Wang Hu turned his head and looked directly at the front windshield. His whole body seemed to be ignited with sparks. His courage was suddenly ignited, and he nodded fiercely with determination.

"it is good!"

Xu Ning smiled and rubbed his head. Wu Haiquan, who was driving the car, said with a smile: "That's right, gentlemen should be a bit brave!"

Then he looked at Xu Ning and asked, "Brother, let's arrange for the two of them to have a chat tomorrow."

Xu Ning thought for a while and said: "We have to go back to the mountains tomorrow, how about we let them have a chat tomorrow morning? Brother Quan, don't follow me tomorrow. Stay home and have a good rest for a day. Then lend me your car." I’ll just go with my big brother.”

Wu Haiquan was stunned, "Is that possible? You guys are unfamiliar with this place, I have to go with you! No...brothers, can you two drive?"

"Yes, all three of us can drive." Xu Ning nodded.

Wu Haiquan turned to look at the three of them and said, "Ah, then I have to go with you. It would be outrageous to let you go alone."

"What's so outrageous about that? Can't we continue our relationship in the future? You're really tired these two days, so just stay home and rest. Originally, I thought about letting you rest in the afternoon, but I didn't expect you to arrange for us to go to the street. Here."

Wu Haiquan said: "Then I will let Hai Long go with you two."

Wang Hu came to his senses and grabbed Xu Ning's arm, "Second brother, I'm not allowed to follow you tomorrow?"

Xu Ning looked at him and said with a smile: "Don't you want to stay on the blind date?"

"Ah? It's just me..."

Li Fuqiang smiled and said: "Then the three of us can still pile up together? It's okay, Huzi, your brother Quan and brother Long are all at home."

Wang Hu rubbed his face and said: "Second brother, brother Lei is also leaving home? Then I'm sorry..."

If Wang Hu and Guan Hua can really succeed, then Guan Lei will be Wang Hu's uncle. It must be a bit uncomfortable to have a blind date with his little sister in front of his uncle's eyes.

Xu Ning thought about it and said, "Brother Quan, let Shitou and I go into the mountain tomorrow, and let Hai Long and the others stay home."

Wu Haiquan nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, let's just settle it. I'll tell Lei Zi later."

The Dongfeng truck drove into Wanye Street. These days, the streets were all the same, consisting of two cross streets. The street entrance was the most prosperous, with supply and marketing cooperatives, the best restaurants in the street, health centers, pharmacies... …

Wu Haiquan parked his car in front of a store called "Public Bath", and then urged Xu Ning and the others to get out of the car.

After everyone got off the bus, Wu Hailong and others pulled Xu Ning, Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu into the bathhouse.

Xu Ning had been to the bathhouse before, but this was the first time for Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu to sit in the bathhouse. The two of them were a little embarrassed, but looking at Xu Ning's calm look, they also cheered up. Basically, they would do whatever Xu Ning did. What.

Upon entering, there was a bar counter. Wu Haiquan and the boss asked for three locks, and then led everyone to lift the curtain and enter the changing area of ​​the men's bathhouse.

There is not much space in the changing area. There are three wooden cabinets against the wall. If there is a lock on the cabinet door, it means someone is using it. If the cabinet door is left ajar or open, it means no one is using it.

Wu Haiquan found three connected cabinets on the middle floor, locked them, and then asked everyone to take off their clothes.

Xu Ning looked at Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu without saying a word, then folded the cotton-padded jackets and put them in the cabinet.

After everyone had finished taking off their clothes, Wu Haitao put all the shoes on the top of the cabinet, then carried the cloth bag into the bathhouse.

There are showers and soaking pools inside. Wu Haiquan even went to find the bath master, handed him a cigarette, and asked him to give him a massage later. Young men must be vigorous!

After Xu Ning got wet, he went to the bathing pool. Wang Hu and Li Fuqiang followed him and whispered: "Second brother, is there a bathhouse in Qing'an Street?"

"Yes, wait until the third brother comes before the Chinese New Year. Then let him take our family to wash in the street."

Li Fuqiang opened his mouth and whispered: "Hey, brother, why don't you be rich?"

"What's the point of worrying about expensive things? Why do we make money? Isn't it just for enjoyment? If we keep the money, we can have babies?"

Li Fuqiang laughed when he heard this and said, "That's great! I work hard to make money just for enjoyment, there's nothing wrong with it!"

Wang Hu turned around and said, "Second brother, how can I go on a blind date? You can teach me."

"How to teach this... When you two meet, chat, first about yourself, then about your family members, then ask her what impression she has of you, and then you tell her what your impression is of her."

Li Fuqiang nodded: "Do you understand? Just follow the process my brother said, and you will definitely win! If my second uncle wants to kill you when I get home... my second uncle can't kill you. At most, he will chat with you for half the night. Ha ha……"

Xu Ning also laughed when he heard this. At this time, Brother Wu Haiquan got wet and joined in the pool, gushing out the water in the pool.

"Hey! It's so hot...Oh, fuck, hoo..."

Wu Haitao made a squeaking sound when he was burned, which made everyone laugh.

It was now past three o'clock in the afternoon, and apart from them, there were only a father and son and a bath master left in the bathhouse, so they could put aside their unbridled chatter.

"Leizi, are you going into the mountains with your brother Ning tomorrow?"

Guan Lei raised his head and glanced at Wang Hu. He knew in his heart that he was going to go on a blind date with his little sister, so he nodded.

"Hai Long, you go and rub it first, we'll wait here for a while."

Hai Long pushed Haitao, "Go and rub it. I see you are covered with chapped, your ankles are black, and your neck is covered with black axles. Why don't you wash it?"

Haitao raised his neck and said, "I don't have a wife." "You idiot, you can pick up on anything I say."

Although Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu always ran into the mountains with Xu Ning during this period, they were not considered dead because they just went to work at home.

After Haitao finished rubbing, Wang Hu went to take a bath. At this time, Xu Ning sat on the edge of the pool, turned to look at Guan Lei and smiled.

"Shitou, Huzi and Xiaohua are on a blind date, do you have anything to say?"

Guan Lei was stunned for a moment. When he saw everyone turning to look at him, he opened his mouth and said, "My little sister is timid and has never been on a blind date before. I have nothing to say."

In fact, Guan Lei didn't expect Xu Ning to ask him at all. Although he prepared a lot of words in his heart, Xu Ning and the other three were Wu Haiquan's benefactors. He couldn't treat them like strangers, so he kept all the words in his heart. .

Wu Haiquan said: "Leizi, I will find you a job at the mine next year. Don't think too much about it, do you understand?"

Guan Lei nodded: "I know. Brother, I want to go to the forest farm to exercise this year."

"Why are you still going to the forest farm? No, why are you so stubborn! How many times have I told you..."

Wu Hailong became anxious when he heard this. He stood up and splashed a large amount of water on the faces of Hai Tao and Hai Quan nearby.

Wu Haiquan rubbed his face and said: "Hai Long! Are you making a fuss and making me angry? If you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Brother, what do you think he can do in a forest farm with his body shape? How can I explain to Xiaomei if I make him tired again?"

Wu Haiquan stared blankly at him and said, "Then let's talk it over. This won't make our brothers laugh. Brother, Hai Long is also afraid that something will happen to Lei Zi."

Xu Ning nodded and said with a smile: "Since Shitou wants to go to the forest farm, let him go. I can talk to the forest farm for a few words, but if he can't get a mortgage, he will go to the big saw."

Guan Lei said: "Brother and brother-in-law, Brother Ning chatted with me about this last night. My original intention was not to trouble him, but I really want to go. Please stop trying to persuade me, okay?"

"Fuck! You're so stubborn!" Wu Hailong cursed with his mouth flat.

Wu Haiquan frowned and heard Xu Ning say: "Brother Quan, this is just a matter of words. He is willing to suffer and be tired, so let him exercise. Otherwise, he can still stay at home and be idle. It's time to start a career." It’s time.”

"Okay, I agree to this, Hai Long?"

Wu Hailong looked at him and nodded: "Ah, then you can go if you like. I'll take care of your sister."

Guan Lei then smiled and said, "Yeah, brother-in-law, tell my sister tomorrow and I will do it well."

"Haha... take a look, this is also a donkey temper." Wu Haiquan pointed at Guan Lei and smiled.

Xu Ning knew very well what kind of person Guan Lei was. Why didn't he smile when he saw Wu Hailong in the past two days? Wasn't he just angry with him. This time I heard my brother-in-law agree, and he immediately grinned.

"Then when I return to Qing'an, will you come with me?" Xu Ning said.

"Okay!"

Wu Hailong muttered: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Your sister will definitely blame me if I leave now. Why can't I wait until the Chinese New Year?"

"Brother-in-law, I will come back during the Chinese New Year."

"Hai Long, go home and tell your wife that I will go to Qing'an to pick him up during the Chinese New Year."

"it is good."

Then Li Fuqiang, Hai Long and others went to take a bath one after another. Xu Ning chatted with Guan Lei for a while, looking at his smiling face with mixed feelings.

Guan Lei is indeed like a stubborn donkey, but his stubborn purpose is not to cause too much trouble to the old Wu family, but to find a way out for himself. From the perspective of Lao Wu's family, this is not a problem at all. After all, Guan's father and Wu Zhouquan are brothers, and Guan Mei is now also a member of Lao Wu's family. They are a family in every aspect.

Xu Ning knew very well what Guan Lei was thinking, and he must be holding a lot of words in his stomach. Why didn't he hold back? Because he couldn't tell Lao Wu's family, they themselves looked at things from different perspectives, so there would be conflicts.

When Guan Lei and Xu Ning were drinking in his previous life, he hugged Xu Ning and cried loudly, telling his innermost feelings and saying that he was sorry to Guan Hua and his parents.

But he never complained about Han Fang, Wu Hailong and others, even if they gave Guan Hua to a fucking in-law's family. Because Guan Lei knew that the Wu family was sincere to him, and Guan Hua did not blame the Wu family for this matter.

But because of Guan Hua, Guan Lei always had a knot in his heart.

At present, Xu Ning and Guan Lei have known each other in advance. With just a few changes, Guan Hua's fate can be avoided. In this way, Guan Lei may be able to live a happier life without the worries of his previous life.

Everyone finished their baths one after another, and it was already past five-thirty when they got dressed and walked out of the bathhouse. It was dark outside, but the door lights and house lights of the shops on both sides of the street were on.

Wu Haiquan paid the money, but Xu Ning didn't rip off the money with him, because the three of them had the money in their old cotton-padded jacket pockets, and even if they rip off the money, they still wouldn't be able to get out the money.

Wu Haiquan saw that Xu Ning didn't fight with him, grinned and hugged Xu Ning's shoulders, and walked out of the public bathing happily.

Why is he happy? Because Xu Ning did not regard him as a friend, but treated him as an elder brother like Guan Lei.

Only when going out with the eldest brother, the younger brother will not rush to pay.

"Let's make some! Isn't Brother Qiang proud of donkey meat? His donkey meat steamed dumplings are a must! We must try them."

Li Fuqiang said: "What are you talking about? I'm already here, and I can still be polite to you. You pay this time, and I will arrange it for you when I go back to Qing'an!"

"Okay!" Wu Haiquan responded.
