September 27th is the wedding of Jiang Zhi and Zhou Xufang.
On the night of September 26th, Jiang Zhi asked Zhou Xufang if she wanted to elope with him. She took the wedding letter, wedding gown, and a box of cotton candy, and then followed him.
Jiang Zhi asked her: "Don't you ask?"
"what?"
"Why escape? Why did I become like this?"
"Because I know everything." Zhou Xufang said, "Jiang Zhi, even if others think you are sick, I won't be able to. I know, you just like me too much."
He stopped and looked at her with red eyes.
She reached out and touched the tears in the corner of his eye: "I don't care, I can accept you in any way, I can go anywhere with you."
Just like that, they eloped.
When they set off, they agreed, go to Moon Bay and take the waterway. But at the ferry, Jiang Zhi hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Xufang asked.
He retracted the foot that had already stepped on the boat: "You can't go to Moon Bay."
"why?"
"It's cold there. What if you are sick and I can't find a doctor?"
I don't know if it was caused by the sea breeze, but he was more sensible and able to calm down a little bit.
Zhou Xufang smiled: "Where shall we go?"
Jiang Zhi said: "Go to a place that is not cold, to a place where there is a doctor."
Two days later, they went to Xufang Town, but they didn't return to the old house of Zhou's house or stay in a hotel. Jiang Zhi chose... to be hospitalized.
"To be hospitalized?" the nurse asked.
Jiang Zhi was wearing a mask: "Yeah."
"What is your name?"
He paused for a few seconds: "Liu Hua."
"Which hua?" The nurse had a local accent.
Jiang Zhi didn't reply.
Zhou Xufang said: "Flowers of flowers."
Jiang Zhi: "..."
Qiao Nanchu's dog stuff has been faked, so he can't take a decent name?
The nurse entered the name into the computer and searched it: "There is no inpatient form issued by an outpatient doctor in the computer. Who is the patient?"
The nurse looked up.
Jiang Zhi immediately hid Zhou Xufang behind him.
Why is this subconscious action so unpleasant? The nurse said angrily: "Go to the doctor's office first, and after confirming that you need to be hospitalized, you will come over and pay the bill."
Jiang Zhi directly put a card on the window.
"Don't go to the clinic, just go to hospital."
The nurse rolled his eyes and said, "Comrade, do you think this is a hotel?" She was very impatient. "Get out of the way, don't block the people behind in line."
Jiang Zhi said with a cold face: "Take your dean--"
At this moment, Zhou Xufang suddenly fell backward.
"Xu Fang!"
Zhou Xufang's head tilted and became dizzy, his hands drooping naturally, and his little finger scratched the back of Jiang Zhi's hand incidentally.
He froze for a few seconds, and then yelled in a panic: "My wife has fainted. Arrange for the doctor and the ward soon."
As soon as he finished shouting, Patient Zhou began to "twitch" again.
Jiang Zhi: "..."
In this way, they got the ward.
Of course, Jiang Zhi also stuffed a card for the attending doctor during the examination.
Jiang Zhi closed the door of the ward: "You just scared me to death."
Patient Zhou sat up and pulled out the fake needle: "Is my acting very good?"
Jiang Zhi told the truth: "There are too many plays."
Originally wanted to play Zhou Xufang, whose condition deteriorated tonight: "..."
They stayed in the hospital for about half a month, and they went out of the door five times. Jiang Zhi brought Zhou Xufang with him every time.
"Xu Fang, we are discharged today."
Zhou Xufang lay on the bed and read the novel: "Has the house been found?"
"I found it. It's an old house. We can move in without renovation."
Zhou Xufang put the book down and got up: "Then I will pack things up."
"I'll take it later." Jiang Zhi pulled her, "Xu Fang, I'm sorry." He has been saying this recently.
When she drank her milk powder, he apologized; when she woke up in the middle of the night, he apologized; even when her novel about chasing a watch was over, he apologized.
"Jianzhi, let's make three chapters."
Jiang Zhi took off her shoes and lay back holding her: "How to make three chapters?"
"If you want to apologize to me in the future, you can peel an apple for me without telling it. I will forgive you if I eat it."
Jiang Zhi thought about it: "Okay."
He went to peel the apple.
On that day, he peeled five apples for Zhou Xufang. Fortunately, his technique of peeling apples was bad. There was not much flesh left after one apple was cut. Otherwise, Zhou Xufang would be able to overturn it.
In the afternoon, Zhou Xufang was discharged from the hospital.
It takes about two hours to drive from the hospital to Tiangang Village. The village is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It is a bit remote, but the scenery is very good, with clear water, blue sky and small bridges.
Xufang Town is an ancient town and a tourist attraction. A half of the original residents in the town are ethnic minorities. As soon as he reached the alley, Zhou Xufang heard the little girl kicking the shuttlecock shouting:
"One pot bottom, two pot lids, three wine cups, four-tooth chopsticks, five nail hammers, six shaomai, seven orchids, eight grasping, nine upper faces, ten dozen flowers—"
With a squeak, the shuttlecock was kicked into a long puddle by the girl.
It has been raining in Xufang Town in the past few days, and there are occasional water accumulations on the bumpy road.
The girl suddenly shouted, "Fatty, go and help my sister pick up the shuttlecock."
"Good~"
The chubby boy ran to pick up the shuttlecock. He was young, four or five years old, running recklessly, seeing that he was about to hit Zhou Xufang’s arms, Jiang Zhi immediately blocked her behind him. .
The boy hit Jiang Zhi's stomach with his head, his chubby body flicked back, and he sat down.
He rubbed his forehead, raised his head, blinked and said, "Uncle, you stepped on my shuttlecock."
That shuttlecock was being stepped on by Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi took a look and picked up the shuttlecock. The child was about to reach out to pick it up. He threw it hard and the shuttlecock jumped over the green tiles and red bricks and fell into the courtyard of someone else's house.
Fatty: "..."
This uncle is good or bad!
Fatty is about to cry.
Jiang Zhi directly ignored him and pulled Zhou Xufang away.
The buildings here are all red bricks and green tiles. Every family has a small courtyard. There are orange trees and grape vines in the courtyard. The vines are tall, and the vines crawl over from the other side of the courtyard, and there are greenery everywhere.
Near the end of the street, there is an open space where a dozen children are kicking shuttlecocks and skipping rope. Opposite is a house. Two red lanterns are hung in front of the house. Under the lanterns, three middle-aged women are chatting. , Three small stools form a ball, there are three or two eggplants on the ground, a small half frame of pepper, and a basket of bean sprouts.
The woman in the yellow knitted vest is picking the eggplant stalks: "Guizhen, are you eating bean sprouts again today?"
Gui Zhen is the one with braided braids next to him: "Isn't that my family's mouth like it."
The "knitted vest" finished picking the eggplant stalks, grabbed a handful of bean sprouts, and helped pick the soybeans on it: "I haven't seen anyone who is more picky than your mouth. I like to eat bean sprouts but not the beans on the bean sprouts. Is bean sprouts still bean sprouts? You are used to him. If this is my mouth, I must beat him to find beans all over the place."
It was the famous shrew in Tiangang Village who beat her husband all over looking for beans. The big guys called her Aunt He. She was married from Hejiacun next door. There were six older brothers on top, all of whom were fierce.
"I saw Jianguo's dad all blue and purple yesterday. It was your wife who beat him again."
It was Gui Zhen's wife, A Ping, who was talking.
Speaking of this, Aunt He was angry: "It was him who was begging for a beggar. The tea garden had just been paid yesterday, so he went to Baiweixuan and touched two mahjongs. I lost half of it in one fell swoop. It was not too light to beat him. "Yes." Aunt He sighed, "Oh, hey, I'm so angry that my blood pressure is going up."
Guizhen smiled: "Just a few curses, he is a big man, don't move at all--"
The conversation was interrupted.
"Please let me."
The three ladies picking vegetables looked up.
Wearing a mask, Jiang Zhi pointed to the door behind them: "This is my home."
This person is so tall.
The three looked at the girl behind the "big tall man" again.
Jiang Zhi stopped, took off the mask, put Zhou Xu on his face, and said again: "This is my home."
Oh!
The three women comrades quickly picked up the stool and the vegetable basket and moved aside, allowing a way out.
Jiang Zhi led Zhou Xufang into the house.
When the door was closed, Gui Zhen said, "What a handsome couple."
Aunt He glanced back at the door: "When the old horse moved out, he said that the house was sold. These young couples should be new neighbors."
Things spread quickly in the small town, and it didn't take long to know that the old Ma's family lived in a handsome young couple who looked like they were outsiders.
In the evening, Jiang Zhi was cooking, and half an hour passed, the pot was still hot.
Because the gas was too late to deliver, he had to cook the rice in a big pot. Jiang Zhi started a fire behind the stove, and he didn't come out for a long time.
He didn't let Zhou Xufang go too far, so she moved a chair and sat at the door of the kitchen. Zhou Xufang asked him, "Is the fire finished?"
"It's ready soon."
How long will it be soon?
After a long time, Zhou Xufang asked, "Are you okay?"
"almost done."
She waited for a long time, but there was still no smoke in the pot. She walked over and took a look: "Can't you click on it?"
Jiang Zhi raised his head, and there was dust on his nose: "It's not that I can't light it, it's because there is a problem with this firewood." He threw a piece of firewood aside with the length of his arm, "The firewood is wet."
Blame Chai.
Zhou Xufang: "Oh."
She wiped the ash from his nose: "What should I do?" Someone will deliver gas tomorrow.
Jiang Zhi stopped burning: "We call takeaway."
He took out his phone, searched a few well-known stores first, showed no, then he clicked on the homepage...
"Xu Fang."
"Ok."
"Takeaway can't be called." He looked at her with an angry and mournful expression, like a dog that had lost a fight, "I can't find a store."
Every family in Tiangang Village cooks, and there is no takeout delivery here.
"are you hungry?"
"It's fine."
Jiang Zhi was so frustrated and blamed himself: "I'll cut an apple for you. Can you pad your stomach first?"
Zhou Xufang: "Good."
Jiang Zhi went to take out the luggage, and was pleasantly surprised to find: "Xu Fang, there is milk powder, I will make you milk powder to drink." After saying that, he remembered, "I forgot, there is no hot water."
Zhou Xufang wanted to laugh, but she was afraid of hitting Jiang Zhi, so she endured it.
Jiang Zhi is like a dog who has lost a fight and then went to a fight and ended up losing again: "I'll cut an apple for you."
"it is good."
Zhou Xufang sat and waited obediently.
When Zhou Xufang finished eating the apple, Jiang Zhi dialed her number and asked her to hold the phone in her hand: "Don't hang up, I want to go out."
"Where to go?"
"Just outside." Jiang Zhi held her coat on the table, "wait for me at home."
There is a gun in the coat.
He went out and didn't go far, so he went to the next door and knocked on the door.
"Who?"
The woman who came to open the door had a round face with freckles, and she was fat and cute.
Jiang Zhi said, "I live next door."
"I know, didn't you see me during the day." Aunt He asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
During the day, he was wearing a mask and didn't see it clearly. At this moment, he was standing under the lantern at the door, and his silhouette was clearly photographed.
Oh my god, he looks like a fairy.
"Could you lend me some hot water?" He said, "It doesn't need a lot, just make a glass of milk."
Aunt He opened all the doors, very enthusiastic: "I'll get it for you, come in and wait."
Jiang Zhi couldn't go in, waited at the door, frequently looking at home.
Aunt He directly took the boiling water bottle and stuffed it to him: "If you don't have enough, you will come back."
Jiang Zhi picked up the water bottle unnaturally, wearing a Bluetooth headset on his ears, Zhou Xufang would occasionally talk to him, he was a little awkward, a little embarrassed, and a little hard to speak.
"Can you... can you give me another bowl of porridge?"
Aunt He said yes, went into the house and brought a small pot directly, still saying: "If you don't have enough, you will come back."
Jiang Zhi: "Thank you."
He carried the pot and the boiling water bottle and went home.
Behind him, another woman's voice came from the room: "Who?"
Aunt He said: "The new neighbor next door."
"That handsome couple." Aping played a card, "Forty thousand."
"Missed."
It's Gui Zhen who is messed up.
Aunt He pushed the mahjong down, rubbing and rubbing: "It is estimated that it has just moved here, and the fire hasn't started yet, so I came to order a bowl of porridge."
Ah Ping gave some money for a cannon, "Two adults and a bowl of porridge, so how can they be full."
next door.
Jiang Zhi took a sip of the porridge, and then tried the soaked milk powder for pregnant women: "You can drink it later."
Zhou Xufang stretched out his hand to serve the bowl: "I don't think there is any need to test the poison." If it is really poisonous, Jiang Zhi might die from the poison, and Jiang Zhi died, and she is not alive.
Jiang Zhi grabbed her hand: "I want to try."
Okay, let him try.
While waiting for the "poisonous outbreak", someone knocked on the door.
Jiang Zhi was very vigilant and told Zhou Xufang: "Don't come out, I'll go and see."
"Oh."
Zhou Xufang pricked her ears to listen carefully, and if something was wrong, she rushed out immediately.
Jiang Zhi went and opened the door: "What's the matter?"
It was the three ladies picking vegetables at the door during the day.
"Is there no fire at home?" Aunt He asked, holding a pot.
"How do you know?" Jiang Zhi immediately looked around, looking at all the places where surveillance might be installed, and then asked, "Who sent you here?"
"..."
Why don't you understand? do not care.
Aunt He held the pot and went directly in: "I baked some cakes in the evening. It was just heated up. You should eat it while it is hot." She put the pot on the stone bench in the yard.
A Ping followed behind, carrying a bamboo basket in her hand, and asked Aunt He, "Is there enough hot water? My corn and eggs are cold, so I have to soak them in hot water."
"Then I will get some hot water."
She ran out with a thud.
At the end, Gui Zhen brought a plate of fish: "Our cured fish is a bit salty. I will get you some sweet potatoes to accompany you."
Ah Ping remembered: "I still have some porridge in my pot."
Chu Chu Chu, another one ran out.
The storm came in, and the storm went out, less than half a minute before and after.
Zhou Xu spun out: "Who?"
"People who live next to you."
Jiang Zhi stared at the cakes, corn, eggs, and cured fish on the stone bench.
These people are so strange.
The strange people are back again, and they can hear their voices before they enter the house.
"If I didn't hit 30,000, I would have fallen a long time ago."
"Why? If you don't hit 30,000, Gui Zhen can touch it? If she doesn't touch 30,000, where can you touch 50,000."
There was a storm, one took the thermos, one took the sweet potato, and the other took the pot, they came again.
"If you don't have enough food, go to my house to get it. I will play mahjong next door, and my house is next door." Ping put down his things and left.
"If you don't hit 30,000, wouldn't it be me who touched 50,000?" Aunt He put down her things and left. "Then I have to fire a gun. Gui Zhen won't touch 30,000, but also paste 50,000."
Gui Zhen said, yes!
"Oh, yes." Aunt He turned around, "girl, what's your name?"
Zhou Xufang stood at the door: "My name is Cuicui, Wang Cuicui."
"What about you?" Aunt He asked Jiang Zhi.
He did not answer.
Zhou Xufang replied on his behalf: "Liu Hua, his name is Liu Hua."
Aunt He said, and went home to play mahjong.
Zhou Xufang looked at the food on a stool on the stone bench and smiled. The weather in this place is warm and the hearts of the people are warm.
