Volume Four, Third Floor. Village Chapter 125. Gu Qingzhi
It's just dawn.
The dark sky slowly turned into deep blue, and the distant mountain peaks were dimmed with orange-red light little by little. The big rooster raised in the small yard of the house had long been crowing at the top of its voice, waking up those who were still in their sweet dreams.
people.
Tang Ling yawned, sat up from the bed, squinted her eyes for a long time, and then fell back on her bed again with a muddy head, preparing to stay in bed for a while.
The extremely aggressive cock crows broke through the closed window glass and reached Tang Ling's ears. She closed her eyes and buried her head in the bed, feeling a little upset by the noise.
"It's so noisy!"
Tang Ling sat up again angrily, with an angry look on her face. She rushed to the window with bare feet, lifted the curtains, opened the window, and looked resentfully at the rooster in the yard, which was still croaking innocently without knowing anything.
Ling gritted her teeth and said, "Sooner or later, I'm going to let grandma stew you! Humph!"
Being disturbed like this, she had already woken up from her drowsiness. At dawn, the air carried the unique sweet smell of clear water. Tang Ling took a deep breath and felt that most of the depression in her chest had disappeared.
Tang Ling was about to close the curtains and change clothes when she saw a person standing some distance away from her yard. Tang Ling squinted her eyes and took a closer look. The plump figure felt somewhat familiar.
That man is really strange. He went out so early. What was he doing standing there all the time?
Just as she was thinking about the purpose of that strange figure standing there, Tang Ling was shocked, slapped her forehead suddenly, and closed the curtains in a panic: "Oh, it's broken! I promised to go find Sister Qiao today!"
"
Tang Ling hurriedly grabbed the regular clothes that were thrown on the small sofa aside, put them on casually, and then walked to the bathroom to wash up. Because her attention was diverted, Tang Ling naturally did not notice the figure she just saw.
, and slowly left after closing the curtains.
After washing, Tang Ling put on her shoes and went downstairs in a lively manner. After eating the breakfast Zhao Fang had prepared for her, she staggered out the door.
Tang Ling's grandma's house is a country-style three-story villa. The exterior walls were painted with white paint not long ago. It looks like a fresh and elegant B&B. There are a total of six bedrooms on the second floor. Tang Ling
The bedroom is at the end of the second floor. Zhao Fang and Tang Jianguo live in the bedroom next to the stairs on the second floor. The rest of the bedrooms belong to the other children of the grandparents. During the Chinese New Year, they will come from their own homes to stay for a few days.
, obviously everyone is not far away, they all live in this village, but they only come back to stay during the Chinese New Year, and the bedrooms on the first and third floors are used as guest rooms.
High-end rural villas like those of Tang Ling and her family can be seen everywhere in Yushen Village. Although Yushen Village refuses the villagers to leave the Yushen Mountains that protect Yushen Village, there are still many younger generations who choose to go out and make a living.
, but it will be difficult to break out in the future. All children born in Yushen Village will be expelled from Yushen Village once they have the idea and action of leaving the village, and they will never be able to return to this land. Although
Tang Ling had doubts about what Zhao Fang told her, but her parents did leave Yushen Mountain when she was very young and never came back to see her again.
Although Yushen Village does not allow people from its own village to go out, it is happy for outsiders to come in. There were very few people who would come to Yushen Village in the past, but since the arrival of the township doctor Chen Qing, he has led the villagers of Yushen Village to open up the land.
I don’t know what method he used to make the originally poor villagers gradually live a prosperous life. He provided plans to help the villagers upgrade their houses. The various vegetables and fruits they planted also grew longer after using his plan.
Well, more and more people are coming to Yushen Village because of its reputation, hoping to find their own small land life there.
Doctor Chen Qing is the most persuasive and leading person in Yushen Village besides the village chief. Everyone is willing to listen to her. He is just in his early twenties, but he can make such great achievements. He is handsome, young and talented.
, is the admiration object of many sisters in the village, and even some widows have different thoughts about him. Qiao Lingxiang also has a special liking for him. She often helps him manage his infirmary, and is regarded as a little assistant. It seems that Dr. Chen Qing
She also had some interest in Sister Qiao. Tang Ling remembered that she had seen Dr. Chen Qing smile happily at Sister Qiao several times.
It seems that Sister Qiao has found the right one.
On the way to find Qiao Lingxiang, Tang Ling was thinking wildly and giggling. As a result, she didn't pay attention and bumped into someone.
"Ouch!"
Tang Ling was knocked back several steps. She covered her forehead in pain, feeling a little annoyed that she kept bumping into people recently.
"You little devil, you are walking without looking at the road again."
A cheerful male voice came from above, joking to Tang Ling. Tang Ling opened her eyes, raised her head and took a clear look at the person in front of her. She was wearing a loose sleeveless shirt, revealing her tanned muscles.
The boy is very tall, so Tang Ling needs to raise her head to see his face. He has a baby face that doesn't quite match his muscular body, and looks a bit childish and cute. Because of this face, the boy feels particularly troubled, and he often receives comments from Tang Ling and
Qiao Lingxiang's joke.
"Brother Gu Qingzhi! Are you back?" Tang Ling shouted in surprise, with a big smile on her face.
"Little Guitou, long time no see. Why do you feel like you haven't grown much?"
Gu Qingzhi stretched out his hand and rubbed Tang Ling's head carefully, trying not to mess up the playful braids that Zhao Fang had tied for her. His face looked even cuter because of his bright smile.
Gu Qingzhi lived next door to Qiao Lingxiang, and was her childhood sweetheart who grew up with her at the same age. Because he overslept in the graduation exam for junior high school and failed the exam, he was forced to go to the other side of the village to study in a dormitory. Tang Ling was
I laughed with Qiao Lingxiang for a long time, but after laughing, I was still very reluctant. Later, I held back my tears and reluctantly watched Gu Qingzhi go to another part of the village after hearing Gu Qingzhi's promise that he would come back to play every monthly vacation.
Studying in a high school.
Even though there is only one such village in Yushen Village, the whole village is so big that it is scary. Tang Ling does not know exactly how much area it occupies. She only knows that she has not walked all the way in the village, so Gu Qingzhi will
He chose to live on campus in high school. He once told Tang Ling and Qiao Lingxiang that if he went home to live after school, he would probably have to walk for several hours.
"Brother, why are you back today? Has it been another month?" Tang Ling asked with some confusion.
"Girl, do you only remember to play every day and never think about when I will come back?" Gu Qingzhi laughed angrily at Tang Ling's words. He patted Tang Ling's back gently and looked at her with some resentment.
she.
"Hahahaha, I forgot! Oh, brother, let's go find Sister Qiao quickly. We haven't seen you for so long. Sister Qiao must miss you very much!" Tang Ling stuck out her tongue at Gu Qingzhi, then took Gu Qingzhi's hand, excitedly
He walked towards Qiao Lingxiang's house.
"Yeah?"
Gu Qingzhi let Tang Ling pull him away, and all he could think about was what Tang Ling had just said, "Qiao Lingxiang misses her very much." Fortunately, his face was tanned a lot, otherwise the redness on his face would not have been covered.
Gu Qingzhi looked at him with a silly smile on his face, looking forward to Qiao Lingxiang's reaction when she saw him.
"Sister Qiao, here I come! Look who I brought here?"
As soon as she walked to the yard of Qiao Lingxiang's house, Tang Ling shouted to the people in the house, but she didn't hear Qiao Lingxiang's response for a long time. Tang Ling was a little strange and continued to shout tentatively: "Sister Qiao, are you at home?"
"Lingling, wait a moment."
He was about to continue shouting at the top of his lungs, but Gu Qingzhi beside him suddenly grabbed Tang Ling and pulled her behind him. He noticed that the door of Qiao Lingxiang's house was not closed, but a small gap was exposed. Gu Qingzhi hesitated
He stood up and asked tentatively while preparing to open the door: "Lingxiang, are you at home?"
"boom!"
Before Gu Qingzhi could open the door, someone pushed the door open from the inside. Qiao's father, Qiao Dabao, who was about to rush out with a gloomy face, was startled when he saw Gu Qingzhi and Tang Ling standing outside the house.
"Ah, hello, Uncle Qiao. Let's come to find Lingxiang." Gu Qingzhi retracted his hand in embarrassment, looking at the angry Qiao Dabao in front of him, he pursed his lips and said hello hesitantly.
"Ah, go in by yourselves." Qiao Dabao's face darkened once again after hearing what Gu Qingzhi said. He tried to soften his tone and replied to Gu Qingzhi, and then left the house.
"Brother Gu, what's wrong with Uncle Qiao?"
Tang Ling shrank behind Gu Qingzhi with some fear. She had never seen Qiao Dabao get so angry before. He always had a simple and honest smile before. What on earth made him so angry?
"I don't know, let's go in first."
Gu Qingzhi also shook his head in confusion. He pulled Tang Ling slowly into the room, only to find that the atmosphere in the room was particularly depressing. In the living room, Qiao Lingxiang sat with her back to them, leaning against the wall, wondering what she was thinking.
, Zhou Xuemei, Qiao's mother, had been saying something beside her. When she saw two people coming in from the door, Zhou Xuemei raised her head and took a look. Her face full of melancholy seemed to have suddenly found reinforcements. She softened a little and showed
He gave a faint smile and said somewhat happily: "Ah, Gu Xiaozi is back? Lingling is also here."
"Aunt Zhou, good morning." Gu Qingzhi pulled Tang Ling and said hello to Zhou Xuemei.
"Hey, okay, have you eaten? I'll go to the kitchen to get you something to eat. I just made steamed buns yesterday." Zhou Xuemei said, and immediately prepared to walk towards the kitchen. Regardless of Gu Qingzhi's still wanting to refuse, she handed her to Gu Qingzhi.
She glanced at him and blocked his words, then continued to smile and said, "Then you guys play with Lingxiang first, and I'll get you some breakfast."
"Ah, then I'll trouble Aunt Zhou."
After Zhou Xuemei entered the kitchen and saw that she had thoughtfully closed the kitchen door, Gu Qingzhi also closed the door to Qiao's house, turned on the lights in the house that had been left on, and slowly walked to Qiao Lingxiang with Tang Ling.
Next to him, he asked with a smile: "Lingxiang, long time no see, do you miss me?"
