life struggle

Bai Lingyan stretched out her right hand and said with a smile, "You take my small bag and parasol, I will get rid of all the burdens, pack lightly, and take you down firmly.【 】"

Wu Xiaojun took it with both hands unceremoniously, and said with a smile, "You go into battle lightly, but I am pressed forward with a heavy load. This is a serious unfair competition, and you have all the advantages."

Bai Lingyan smiled and said, "Actually, this is only fair. I put pressure on you to get closer to the woman. Don't be wronged. From now on, whoever stops first will be the loser." Before Wu Xiaojun could speak, she I have already walked ahead step by step.

Wu Xiaojun followed closely behind, watching her walking gracefully, moving like a rabbit, leisurely, with light steps, trembling, looking back and smiling from time to time with great interest, and giving her a look of burning excitement, even more so. Swaying and graceful, proudly displaying his vigorous physique, model-like figure and charming demeanor, it is really embarrassing, full of laughter and imagination.

After walking for about ten minutes, Wu Xiaojun's heart was pounding, he was out of breath, and he said with a sad face, "Miss Bai, you are a master, I voluntarily admit defeat, so stop here, if this continues, my bones will fall apart, it's natural Let's go."

Bai Lingyan laughed and said, "You know how powerful this girl is."

"Today I have completely convinced you. What I didn't expect was that you walked such a long distance in one day, why did you act like a normal person? You never cried bitterness or tiredness along the way. Most girls can't do it at all." arrive."

"This is the difference between rural people and those who grew up in the city. Regular participation in manual labor is very beneficial to the body. I used to go to the fields to do crop work, go to the mountains to mow grass and collect firewood, and make whole bundles I am used to carrying it home. Walking a short distance does not hurt my muscles or bones, and it is a piece of cake."

"According to the calculations, today we walked seventy or eighty miles, climbed several mountain ridges, visited more than a dozen villages, and met hundreds of people. It can be said that there is indescribable bitterness and countless gains. .”

"I am also like this. I feel that it is no longer simply to meet people, to see whether the family situation is good or bad. Some hidden hidden things are more worthy of our attention and attention. Maybe those are what we really want to get from participating in social practice activities. things and gains."

"Apart from some sentimental sympathy and sadness along the way, there is no worry or loneliness, just because you are accompanied by a beautiful, smart and competent colleague like you, I have never felt happier than before."

"No matter what I say, you have not let me down. The overall performance can still get more than [-] points. Of course, there is still more room for effort. Don't be complacent, keep working hard, and I would like to work with you if I have the opportunity in the future."

They walked and talked along the way, and it was already nine o'clock in the evening when they returned to the room after dinner in the town. The two of them were really tired, so they simply washed up and fell asleep.

In the small town that has been sleeping all night, folks who go to the market to go to the store and do all kinds of business gather here from all directions, which kicks off the prelude to the bustle and bustle of people.After a night of deep sleep and rest, the two were tired and exhausted. They were eager to complete the task as soon as possible and went back. Leave the town and head northeast to Sun Village.

The sky in the mountains is like a human being. It is moody and unpredictable. Yesterday it was still clear and the sky was clear, the clouds were light and the wind was light, and the heat was unbearable. This morning, it was cloudy and misty. .The morning breeze was very cool, and the two were in high spirits and in a particularly comfortable mood. They walked among the countryside, breathed in the fresh field atmosphere, and slowly appreciated the local cultural landscape.

The road is being widened and renovated, several machines are roaring, and many road construction workers are busy digging the roadbed. Fresh loess piles and other stones can be seen everywhere on both sides of the road.From time to time, the two of them had to walk through the farmland by the side of the road lightly, and their shoes would be covered with mud after walking a short distance. The root, as a tool for removing mud from shoes, dangles slowly and is quite comfortable.

The two walked for nearly three hours while inquiring and searching all the way, and arrived at Sunzhuang Primary School. Several construction workers in the school were building the school building. Wu Xiaojun walked up to a master and said, "Master, do you know where the principal works?"

It just so happened that a middle-aged man was walking out with a satchel on his back and pushing a bicycle. The master saw it and hurriedly called out, "Principal Wu, don't leave, someone is looking for you."

When Wu Xiaojun heard that it was the principal, he walked over and briefly explained the situation. Principal Wu turned around and took the two of them to the office, took out the "Hope Project Rescue Certificates" of more than a dozen students, happily introduced the situation one by one, and then said: , "If you come one minute late, I will go to the town for a meeting. Most of these children are distributed in relatively remote valleys. If you go to every family, you will not be able to finish walking today."

Wu Xiaojun thought for a while, and said with a smile, "Thank you, principal, for delaying your rush to the meeting. The situation you introduced is quite detailed, which relieves a lot of burden on both of us. There are still many students to visit, so we won't go door-to-door. We met."

The two left Sun Village and walked into the ravine-ridden valley. It was already noon when they reached the next stop, Guling.The principal’s house is really nice. The gate is tall and the two gates are painted brightly. A car can be stepped out of the gate. Compared with the surrounding neighbors, the newly built brick and tile house is much higher than the surrounding neighbors. The house is flat, the floor is tiled, and the roof is decorated uniquely. There are exquisitely framed Huangshan pine murals on the front wall. Loud, rare in rural areas, comparable to people in cities.

The principal didn't come back from a meeting in the town. The principal's wife and three children had just had lunch, and they were very enthusiastic when they saw them coming home.The headmaster's wife is about 50 years old, of medium build, and although she is a rural woman, her demeanor is very vulgar and clean, she seems to be a person who often entertains guests and has seen the world. She asked her eldest daughter to find the general accountant elsewhere, and hurried to the kitchen Light a fire for two to cook.

Not long after, Zhang Zhang, the school's general affairs accountant, walked into the courtyard from the outside with a big belly and a cattail fan. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted loudly, "Mrs. Zhang, where are you? What do you want me to do at noon?"

Mrs. Zhang responded in the kitchen, "Accountant Zhang, two college students from Pingxi came from the county and said they wanted to visit and investigate the situation of our school's children who were rescued by the Hope Project. It's not easy for them to come all the way. Your brother is not at home, so I thought of letting you accompany them."

Accountant Zhang laughed and said, "I thought it was something. I received a call from the town a few days ago. I have been waiting, but I have never seen anyone. I am here today. It doesn't matter. I will fully cooperate." to the house.

Wu Xiaojun and Bai Lingyan got up quickly, and the three of them met each other. Accountant Li sat on a chair and said in a low voice, "You came here from the town, it's raining, the mountains are high and the road is long, it's really embarrassing and tiring. I am very touched and admired, and we have no reason not to support and cooperate with your work. You eat first, and after the meal, I will take you to various houses to have a look."

Wu Xiaojun said, "Then there will be Accountant Lao Zhang."

While talking, Mrs. Zhang brought over two bowls of porridge, a large plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, a plate of sliced ​​ham sausage, and a few steamed buns.After a few days of visiting various places, the two gradually got used to eating wherever they went. With the other five locals sitting around chatting and paying attention, they stopped being polite and picked up vegetables, drank soup and ate steamed buns as if no one else was around.

Wu Xiaojun usually eats faster than ordinary people, and his father Wu Pingshun didn't say much about him because of this, and he usually pays more attention, especially when there are many people gathering together. Pretend to be gentle and patient, and cater to the beat of everyone.I don't know whether it's because I walk for a long time, I'm hungry, my stomach is empty, or I'm careless and turn a blind eye to other people around me, and my weaknesses are unconsciously exposed.

At first, the two of them didn't care, just kept their heads down and just ate, which was fine, but soon the problem came out, and Wu Xiaojun's speed increased. In less than 10 minutes, a bowl of soup was completely wiped out, and the two The fist-sized steamed buns had already slipped into the belly, and it was hard to swallow any more, so I had to put down the bowls and chopsticks.Suddenly realized that something was wrong, Bai Lingyan lowered her head, still had half a steamed bun in her hand, and more than half a bowl of soup in front of her, she chewed slowly bit by bit with relish, eating like this, there was no end to the end.Looking up and seeing a few people looking at her with a smile, Mimi was anxious and embarrassed for a while, wondering why they were eating so slowly, and what was worth tasting and chewing.

It's okay for two people to eat together in front of strangers, but it's a bit indecent if one person just gobbled it up and stared at the other person.It's not an exaggeration for a young man like Wu Xiaojun to be the last one. It seems to be a matter of course, but it's different for a girl like Bai Lingyan. , It's really indecent and a little embarrassing.

Seeing that Wu Xiaojun had already run out, Bai Lingyan sat quietly waiting for her, a little flustered and embarrassed, so she rolled her eyes at him and blamed him with a painful and displeased expression on her face, "Why are you so selfish, you only care about yourself and don't care about others? , more or less give me a care, wait for me a little longer, this makes me so embarrassed, so embarrassed and unable to step down."

Wu Xiaojun saw through her thoughts, the matter had come to this point, and it was irreversible, so he could only comfort in a low voice, "It's nothing, don't bother with them, just eat slowly." He said so in his mouth, but he secretly complained in his heart that he didn't pay attention to his own badness. Flaws, ignorance of the rules, no winks, no love to take care of others, making mistakes that should not be made in a foreign land, making a girl difficult to get off, and shyly embarrassing in front of fellow villagers.
