The sound of the radio waves in the air,

Heard the news joyfully;

The work is frequently reported to the press,

Hard work does not disappoint the ploughman.

In the spring of April, the ice melted and all living things were revived, brimming with vitality. April 5th is the Qingming Festival, they said that Qingming rare clear, valley rain rare rain. However, this year's Qingming Festival is sunny and sunny. Good weather like the Qing Ming Festival was still rare.

Today was Tuesday. Zi Peng requested for a leave of absence from President of the Trade Union in the factory. He wanted to go to the grave for his dead parents and foster father.

He first went to close the grave of his parents that was near his home, then went to stonecrop to bury his foster father. It was about 10: 30 a.m. when the work was done and he turned back.

At this moment, Zi Peng did not want to go back to his own home, he wanted to visit the little sister Lixia that he had been thinking about day and night. It had been more than ten days since he and her had met up with the City on March 24. This longing, this worry, this desire, made him eat and drink without any taste, making it hard for him to sleep. How he longed to arrive early on the 5th of April and meet her when he did. Even if they had just exchanged a few words or looked at each other, they would have felt happy. They would also feel extremely comforted and satisfied …

Zi Peng was going to Lia Xia's house today. He had decided to go with her on the 24th of March, when they were at City. She knew that every year he would go to stonecrop to visit the grave, so she invited him to visit her house after they had finished there. He happily agreed.

Zi Peng finally looked forward to this day. He would be there in half an hour, about eleven o'clock. For this reason, on the road, he recalled the past: he and her acquaintance, mutual knowledge, in the imperceptible seven spring, summer, autumn and winter. In the beginning, Zi Peng and Li Xia were merely production team's neighbors. He was the captain and she was a member. At that time, he had only met with her and had not spoken of any feelings. However, she was very pretty, very beautiful, very young and talented, so it was normal to see her for a while. He did not know whether she liked him or not; he did not feel anything; he did not think about that at all...

On February 6, 1987, Zi Peng became the Secretary of the Party Branch and went to work in the village every day. On the afternoon of the 24th of February, Lixia went to the Taoyuan Supply and Marketing Association to buy a thermometer, but the Taoyuan Supply and Marketing Association did not have one. He needed to go to the Erdaojiang to buy some, and he hated the road that was covered with water, so he couldn't walk easily. At this moment, Zi Peng came to the supply and marketing office to buy office supplies. It was a fortuitous encounter that he saw her. So he asked her what she was down for, and she told him the truth. He thought that since they were both living in a production team, they should help her with such a small matter. He said he would take her on a bicycle to the Erdaojiang to buy a thermometer, and she readily agreed. So she sat on the back of his bike, went to the Erdaojiang, and bought two thermometers in the department store. When he was done, he took her back to the Peach Springs on his bicycle. She was grateful to him for that, and gave him a grateful look. He told her that it was almost time to get off work and that he wouldn't be going back to the village to go back with her to Team Six. When she heard this, she was very happy. So he walked back with her. The journey from Peach Blossom to Team Six was eight miles long, so he had spoken to her while they were on the road. He was on good terms with her; he was on good terms with her; he and she hated it. Along the way, he spoke of the misfortune of marriage, and she of the pain of marriage. The more he talked to her, the more affectionate he became; the more he talked to her …

So, in May, Rizhao let Zipeng book her a 'family' for the second half of 87 years. From then on, Zi Peng would send her a 'family' every month. In the winter, when it was snowing heavily, he brought her home. His face was red from the cold and his body was covered with snow. She was deeply moved to see him deliver a 'family' to her in such a bad weather. She hurried to clean the snow off him and poured him another cup of hot water. It was on that same night that he shook hands with her for the first time, and as he was about to go back, there was the first embrace …

That winter, she had asked Zi Peng to order an 88-year 'Audiovisual Herald' for her. He had happily agreed to it. In this way, in a few moments, he and she had a good impression of each other; in a few moments, he and she had an impression of each other; in a few moments, he and she had missed each other …

On March 24, 1988, he and she first went to a movie at the Tonggang Club, kissing each other for the first time during a movie, caressing each other for the first time, falling in love with each other for the first time …

April 28, 1988. The larch had already sprouted green leaves; the grass had crawled out of the ground; the sun was bright and the temperature was warm. Thus, he came to the Longshan pine forest with her for the first time and had sex with her for the first time.

As he thought about the past with her, he unknowingly came to her home. She was cooking when he came in. Today, she cooked six dishes for him, stuffed dumplings with leeks. At this time, Guohong was also at home. He was cooking dumplings by the fire. Seeing that Zi Peng had arrived, he enthusiastically greeted him.

Not long later, the dishes and dumplings were placed on the table, and Lucia once again opened a bottle of red plum wine for Zi Peng. She filled a glass for him and for herself, and Guihong poured himself a glass of white wine. She raised her glass, looked at him with deep emotion, and said:

"second brother, we are very happy that you came to visit us at the grave today and also came to visit us. If I remember correctly, you came on the eleventh of February, the second day of the first month. Since then, the second brother had never come to visit. This time, it was his second time here. second brother, am I right? "

When Zi Peng heard Lixia's question, he thought for a moment before saying,

"Lixia is right, this is indeed the second time this year."

Lixia looked at Zi Peng's smiling face and continued,

"second brother, as a worker, you have to be busy with work. We understand that. Since he was here today, he had to eat and drink well. Come, second brother, little sister will toast to you! "

After saying that, the three of them clinked their glasses and downed the wine in one gulp. When they filled the second cup, Zi Peng raised the glass and looked at her affectionately. Then he said:

"Thank you very much for preparing me such a sumptuous meal and dumplings. To be honest, I've caused you quite a bit of trouble over the years. I'm sorry to have to eat and drink so much in your house. Since Lixia accepted my mother as her daughter, I felt we were closer than ever. Today, I'll lend you both a glass of wine. He hoped that if he went to Taoyuan in the future, he would have to go visit it. Eat whatever you meet, and do not take offense to it. "Come, drink."

The three of them clinked glasses again and drank a second. After that, he filled the cup again for the third time. Gui Hong raised his glass and said,

"second brother, our family has given you a lot of trouble in the past few years. We have been feeling very happy ever since your aunt took Liza as her daughter. Since second brother has come today, I must eat and drink to my heart's content. "Here, let me toast you!"

After saying that, the three of them clinked their glasses and drank their third cup of wine. At this moment, after the bottle of wine was finished, Lixia took out a second bottle and prepared to open it. Right now, Zi Peng's face was red from drinking, and he didn't want to drink anymore. Why did she insist on drinking it, she still opened the second bottle of wine. She filled a glass for him and then another for herself. Gui Hong has now drunk three glasses of white wine, and he has refilled his cup. She raised her glass and looked at him affectionately.

"second brother, little sister is happy today. I think, second brother doesn't have anything to do today, let's just get drunk, is second brother willing? "

When Zi Peng heard what she said, he felt it was funny. He looked at her blissful face and couldn't deny her face. Thus, he reluctantly said:

"Lixia, you and I are siblings now. Although my mother has passed away, she did have a relationship with you as a mother and daughter. Do you feel bad watching second brother getting drunk? Do you have the heart to see second brother getting drunk and making a fool of himself? I advise little sister not to drink it. "

After listening to Zi Peng's words, Lixia felt that she did not believe him. Still smiling, she insisted:

"second brother, since we met; since you've become a secretary; since you've become a worker, we've never been drunk a single time. I don't think it's a big deal if we get drunk once in a while. As the saying goes, 'You know less than a thousand glasses at a time of wine,' and besides, we've only had three glasses of wine. second brother, you can just listen to me. Let us siblings have a taste of what it is like to be drunk. Let us siblings have a taste of what it feels like to be drunk. Let us siblings have a taste of drunkenness and see if we can clear ourselves of all our worries. "

Zi Peng felt that her idea was a bit too ridiculous. He looked into her big, watery, talking eyes and argued:

"second brother cannot agree with what you have said. Because you are the master of this room; because you are in a state of excitement; because you do not know what it will be like to be drunk. That's why you insist on drinking. I think that such an approach is absurd and undesirable. If you're drunk and you're the master, you can't be too noisy. I'm not like you. I'm in your house. Besides, I didn't want to drink too much. If you really get drunk and become so ugly, won't you all laugh until your teeth fall off? Aren't you all still laughing at me? Don't you want to make me notorious? "

At this time, Gui Hong's alcohol had also taken effect, because he drank 3 cups of white wine in a row, which was at least 7 or 2 cups. His face was now flushed red and his tongue felt stiff. He was in line with Liza and said:

"Two …" Brother, I … I can see you... She could only hear the sounds of her breathing … Once, I had a drink today... White... Liquor, I will risk my life to accompany you. Two... If second brother is real … I'm really drunk, so am I. "Alright, I won't go anywhere."
