It was already past 5 in the afternoon when Lisa returned home. She went to the old man's shop to sell her legumes today, so she wasn't at home. When she saw the 'family' sent over by Zi Peng, her heart couldn't help but contract. I'm so sorry, brother, he thought. little sister can't bear to have you wait in the air on such a hot day. She looked at the last page of the 'Family.' It read: 9472982. When she saw this, her shrinking heart finally relaxed. She was happy and happy for the date he wrote...
So, what does 9472982 mean? 94 was year 94, July was July, 29th was the 81st, and 2nd was the Erdaojiang. Connecting together, it was the 8: 00 AM on the 29th of July, 1994, in Erdaojiang. This was the signal he used to date her. Others might have seen it but they didn't know what it meant.
After Zi Peng and Lixia met up in Erdaojiang, they walked up from the department store side by side. This was the direction to Dragon Mountain.
The streets of Erdaojiang were now bustling, bustling, and colorful: the commercial service agencies on both sides of the road were packed with goods; shoppers were coming in and out, bustling with activity; cars were moving in and out in an orderly fashion; on the sidewalks, people in colorful summer clothes were moving up and down; the flowers in the flowerbeds were colorful and purple; the fragrance of flowers filled people's lungs; the trees beside the flowerpots were like fixed umbrellas, blocking the sun of flowers and grass …
Along the way, Zi Peng and Lixia both felt very happy, very happy, very happy. He pushed his bicycle, and she walked to his right, holding his hand on the handlebars, and looked at him with affectionate eyes.
"Brother, on the 24th, you waited at my house all afternoon. I'm really sorry, brother."
Zi Peng recalled the scene from that day after being reminded by Lixia. So he said,
"Sister, that afternoon, I was full of hope. Under the scorching heat, I set foot on the mountain path to your house. Filled with passion to see you, but miss the pain. But when I came to your house and you weren't home, I was disappointed. "
After hearing Zi Peng's lawsuit, Lixia felt even more guilty. Looking at the expression on his face, she said truthfully:
"Bro, I'll go to the old geezer's store to sell vegetables at 8 am that day." He pulled a cart filled with legumes s, celery, eggplants, green peppers and sharp peppers. I was walking on the road to Taoyuan, thinking I could meet you, but I didn't. Thus, I went to the Peach Blossom Market to sell my vegetables. After selling for more than two hours, I still haven't seen you. Besides, there were a lot of people selling vegetables here, so there weren't many people selling vegetables in the whole morning. And so I drove back to the Old Man's Shop. "
Zi Peng felt that he had been a little too foolish when he heard what Li Xia said, but he couldn't bear to think about the taste of humans. He looked at her pretty face and said with emotion:
"Sister, I want to know if you came down to sell some vegetables." At least I'll see you in the market, but I didn't know you could come down and sell vegetables. So I went to your house when I missed you and felt pain. The door outside your house is not locked, so I've been waiting for you in the outer room. "
In order to explain the truth of the matter, Lixia dispelled the unhappiness in Zi Peng's heart. After he finished, she explained further:
"Brother, since you went to my house on July 10th, I have been hoping that you would come back. But after a week, you still didn't come. During this time, I came to Taoyuan several times, but never met my brother. I'm going to your house, but I'm afraid you're not at work. Therefore, my heart felt even worse. Brother, think about it. We haven't seen each other in two weeks. I wanted to wait for you at home on the 24th, but the legumes are always on the shelf. On Saturday afternoon, Gui Hong picked the dishes. He was too busy chasing down the fat to sell. That's why I went out to sell vegetables on the 24th. "
Zi Peng heard that Lixia had been blaming herself for what happened that day. Thus, he comforted her and said:
"Sister, it's all over now, so we don't have to regret it. We don't have to blame ourselves; we don't have to worry about anyone. It's enough that we meet today and date. "
After listening to Zi Peng's comforting words, Lixia felt a bit more relaxed in her heart. But how could she forget the pain she felt when she thought about him? She looked at his sincere smile and said from the bottom of her heart:
"Brother, do you know how uncomfortable I feel not being able to see you for such a long time? When I think of you, I become a fool and a fool. Sometimes, he would just stand there, motionless. Sometimes, he would just run outside foolishly, thinking that his brother could come here. Sometimes, he would be in a trance, not eating at all. "Brother, this feeling is very painful; this feeling is unbearable; this feeling is very torturous."
Zi Peng was deeply moved after hearing the heartfelt words of Lixia. Wasn't that what he was thinking in his heart? So he said,
"Little sister, big brother is the same as you." Otherwise, why am I still visiting you again and again on such a hot day? Isn't it just because I miss you? "
At this time, Lixia recalled the scene from that day. Looking at the happy expression on Zi Peng's face, she sincerely said,
"Brother, on the 24th, I arrived home at around 5 PM. While I was cooking, I found the 'family' and the newspaper that my brother had sent me in the kitchen. I felt as if something had tugged at my heart, and I knew that my brother had been waiting here all afternoon. When I saw the time and place of your appointment, I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. I didn't expect that when I missed my brother the most, you would send me my 'family.' I didn't expect that when I missed my brother the most, you would set a date. I didn't expect that when I missed my brother the most, you would send me comfort, encouragement and hope. "
Zi Peng looked at Lixia's beautiful face and said,
"Sister, if I were not to visit you on the 24th, would I be able to send you home? Can there be a date today? "
Hearing Zi Peng ask her, he replied honestly,
"Brother, it's all thanks to you coming to my house on the 24th. It took me an afternoon, but my brother's intelligence brought us together. "
Zi Peng didn't want to talk about that topic anymore. Therefore, he changed the topic and said:
"Sister, don't even mention today's weather, it's really not bad at all." There are thick clouds covering the sun in the sky, and this is a great opportunity given to us by heaven. "
Hearing what Zi Peng said, Lixia felt that it made some sense. But then she remembered the two times she had been teased by the Lord of the Heavens, the two times she had been exposed to the rain. Thinking of this, she somewhat indignantly said:
"Big bro, actually, the heavens can give us a chance to reunite, and they can also tease us more. You haven't forgotten, once we went to the Dragon Mountain, it was always raining. We couldn't sit, we couldn't lie down, we had to stand in the rain, and once, on the day I went to the hospital, we came up to the mountain in high spirits. However, he had just reached the top of the mountain and had yet to regain his footing. A thunderous roar filled the air as heavy rain poured down. "That day, you've truly ruined me."
Zi Peng felt that what Lixia said was not without reason, but good weather like today was really hard to come by. Thinking of this, he said:
"Sis, actually, weather is sometimes very difficult to predict. Just like now, just a few days ago, it was still 32 degrees Celsius, but today it suddenly became so gloomy and the temperature dropped. It was such a good day that we finally got our hands on it. Thus, this is a sign of destiny. "
As Zi Peng spoke, he held onto Lixia's hand and she fell into his arms through the bicycle. She said:
"Brother, let's take a rest first."
Zi Peng also wanted to rest here for a while, but when he heard what Lixia said, he agreed immediately.
"Alright, I was just about to rest for a bit. Since sis is tired, then, let's rest here for a bit."
On the hillside, the corn had already been gathered, spitting out bright threads of silk, and was as tall as a man, lush and verdant; the soybeans were clipped, like little curved knives; the flowers were fragrant; a flock of swallows flew over their heads and away; the sky was covered by a great cloud...
They rested here for five minutes before continuing on their way to their destination. While walking, she whispered to herself,
"Brother, it's best if we meet on the 25th of June. That day, the sky was not yet hot. We all received satisfaction and happiness. We all experienced the taste of true love. "
Zi Peng felt the same way when he heard what Li Xia said. He suddenly changed the topic and said:
"Sister, it has only been a little more than a month since we met on June 25th. Why do we feel that it has been so long? Why do we feel so miserable? "
After hearing Zi Peng's question, Lixia pondered for a while before shaking her head and saying,
"Brother, I don't have a clear explanation for this problem. Anyway, I think the same thing as you."
Zi Peng saw the happiness in Lixia's heart, and his heart was filled with sweetness. He said with infinite emotion:
"Sister, now that I think back to when we just met, I feel especially beautiful, especially nostalgic, and especially interesting."
Hearing Zi Peng's words, she remembered the scene back then. She went on to say in a faint voice:
"Big bro's right, I have a clear memory of what happened when we first met." At that time, we were both very unfamiliar with each other. However, little sister respects Big Brother's conduct and conduct, and his integrity and kindness. At that time, I also participated in the production team's labour, so I had a good impression of brother. But at that time, I wanted to get close to you, I wanted to curry favor with you, I wanted to curry favor with you, I had no chance at all. I am not in your eyes, nor is there my place, much less a woman like me. "
Zi Peng's heart was deeply moved as he listened to what Lixia had to say. He patted her hand and said sincerely:
"Sister, you're wrong to say that." Think about it, when you just joined the production team, you were a beautiful young lady in your twenties. I was almost 40 years old. Although I am the leader of the production team's team, I cannot keep my eyes on you. If I kept my eyes on you, you would definitely think I was a hooligan. If you had a bad impression of me, would we still be siblings in the future? "Then can we become lovers in the future?"
Lisa felt that what Zi Peng said just now made sense. She looked at his handsome smiling face and praised,
"Brother, those people from the production team all praised you for being fair; they all praised you for being equal; they all praised you for being a good, qualified captain."
Zi Peng looked at Lixia with deep emotions and asked:
"Sister, do you know my previous situation?"
The blanket asked at a loss of what to do. She rubbed her eyes and said,
"What's the point of a man with culture and ability like brother in the past?"
Zi Peng looked at the puzzled expression on Lixia's face and told her the truth.
"Sister, I really didn't look like a human before. I'm not afraid of your jokes: I came to Six in 1962, when I was eighteen. He was short, thin, dark, and less than 1.5 meters tall. He had been bullied and humiliated in the production team. In 1965, I came to the social school of the Task Force, they saw I was a bit of a cultural, so they nurtured me into the party. That year, I was appointed as production team's cash cashier. By this time, I had grown to a height of 1.65 meters, and the next year I was in charge of accounting. By 1969, I was also the head of the production team. "These people from the sixth team really look down on me with their dog eyes. After I became a teller, their opinions of me have completely changed and no one will ever bully or insult me again."
After listening to Zi Peng's story, Lixia finally had a better understanding of his past. So she said,
"Brother, if you don't tell this story, little sister will never know about it. Your big brother here in the sixth squadron has suffered quite a bit. "
Zi Peng looked at Lixia's beautiful face and reminisced about the past.
"Sister, ever since we split the land and went to the household, we no longer have to work at production team. "As a result, the chances of us meeting each other again lessened. We have always been strangers to each other."
While talking, Zi Peng and Lixia arrived at Long Shan, the place where they met for the first time in 1988. He took her hand and sat beside her, and when their eyes met, there was a fiery spark of love. Thus, he hugged her tightly …
Today, Zi Peng and Lixia had been together for more than 4 hours. During these four hours, they rarely spoke. All words are replaced by hugs and kisses; all words are replaced by caresses and pleasures...
The weather today was really good. Even now, the sky was still overcast and dark. It was likely that a storm would arrive tonight. At two o'clock in the afternoon, Zi Peng and Lixia walked out of the pine forest and headed for the Peach Blossom Valley.
