After finally coming down from the mountain, Su Ying's family of three sat in the house to rest.
They feel exhausted now, as if their legs are hanging from lead.
After drinking some tea made with spring water by Zhang An, I slowly recovered after a long time.
"Sister, what time is the latest bus back to the county town?"
At this moment, Wu Qiuping calmed down, saw that it was already getting late, and asked Wang Fang.
"The last bus back to the county town is at five o'clock, and we can't make it now."
Wang Fang looked at the time and then said to Wu Qiuping.
"If you ask me, don't go back today. Rest here for one night and then leave tomorrow. Why are you in such a hurry to go back?"
This is not a normal courtesy from Wang Fang, she really wants to keep Su Ying and her family.
"Isn't it true that there are relatives coming to visit tomorrow? We just thought about going back and getting ready."
At this moment, Wu Qiuping looked at the time and saw that it was already half past five.
It seemed that I couldn't catch up. I was really tired when I just came down the mountain, so I didn't pay attention to the time when I took a rest.
"There's no rush. You're all so tired today. You might as well stay here tonight and have a good rest. Let Xiao An take you back early tomorrow morning."
Wang Fang held Wu Qiuping's hand and talked. The two of them talked like sisters for a long time, and now they are very familiar with each other.
"Besides, if you go back so late, you won't be able to prepare anything. The most you can do is buy some food and just bring some back from here tomorrow."
When Wu Qiuping heard that there was no car, she had no choice but to leave.
If Zhang An was asked to take them home now, it would take four or five hours to go back and forth.
It was not safe for Zhang An to drive on the road, so he did not insist on leaving.
"Then we'll stay here today and bother you, which is a bit embarrassing."
"What's wrong with this? I like this kid Xiaoying very much. I'll be happy if you come here a few more times."
After cooking in the evening, Wu Qiuping also followed Wang Fang in working in the kitchen.
Wang Fang is not as polite as he was at noon now. The two of them are chatting in the kitchen while cooking.
From time to time we discuss which dish is more delicious and how to prepare it.
Zhang Jianguo and Su Shaowen, who were outside, took out the chess sets at home.
Arrange the carriages and horses in the yard and start a fierce hedging.
Since it was getting late, Zhang An went to the pen to add some materials, water, and food to the animals' food troughs and water troughs.
Su Ying was watching two adults playing chess. After watching for a long time, she found that she was not interested.
Finally, he followed Zhang An and ran to the pen to feed the animals.
"Zhang An, where is the golden rooster you mentioned? Take me to see it quickly."
After adding a circle of fodder, Su Ying remembered the golden rooster that Zhang An said.
"Then you come with me."
Zhang An smiled and led Su Ying towards the chicken pen.
"Here, these are all."
Zhang An caught a small golden rooster and handed it to Su Ying.
In order to prevent the golden roosters from being assimilated by the local chickens, Zhang An's family isolated several golden roosters and raised them aside.
"Ah, that's what it looks like. It's too ugly."
When Su Ying saw these tan chicks, she felt they were different from what she thought, and was immediately disappointed.
"Their cubs are like this, and this coat color is their protective color, which allows them to avoid being caught by many natural enemies. When the male birds grow up for a while and moult, they will look very good."
Now these little golden pheasants are only a week or two old, and it's still early for them to moult.
"Then what's the difference between them and other chicks now? They seem to be the same."
"The difference is huge. These little guys can already fly and jump in more than a week, but native chickens can't do that."
As soon as Zhang An finished speaking, the little golden rooster in Su Ying's hand suddenly flew up and jumped on Su Ying's head.
"Ah, it really can fly. Please help me get it quickly."
Suddenly startled, Su Ying asked Zhang An to take it out quickly.
"That's why I raised them separately. I was worried that they would get used to being with native chickens and forget that they could fly in the future."
This is similar to the children of some ethnic minority villagers in later generations who stayed with the Han people for too long and ended up not being able to speak the ethnic minority language.
The sun went down and it started to get dark.
The two mothers in the kitchen had also prepared dinner and started calling everyone to eat.
The two old men in the yard were in the middle of killing each other, but some of them were still interested.
But they all have sharp ears, and they dare not not listen to the old lady at home.
So I had to put down the unfinished game with a look of regret and wait until I finished eating before continuing.
I didn’t cook so many dishes in the evening because Wu Qiuping had just been persuading me in the kitchen.
He said it would be too wasteful to make so much, and I really couldn’t finish it.
After dinner, everyone sat together and talked.
Wu Qiuping's words were directed toward Zhang An, intentionally or unintentionally.
When they arrived in the morning, the couple also asked many people in the village.
People in the village all had similar opinions about Zhang An, and everyone praised Zhang An highly.
Fortunately, Wu Qiuping didn't meet Li Jinbiao's family.
And when we went hiking in the afternoon, we could see that this young man was very good at taking care of others.
Today, she was observing Zhang An intentionally or unintentionally, and she could see that Zhang An was also interested in his daughter.
Although there is no job, you can earn money in this village, which is more than those who work in the city.
Compared with life in the city, this is life.
Therefore, in Wu Qiuping's eyes, Zhang An has a handsome face and must be a good person, otherwise the people in the village would not have such a good reputation.
So at the end of the day, the two couples were very satisfied with Zhang An and had nothing to find fault with.
Wang Fang is also in her forties, it's just that she couldn't tell it before.
But the two of them had been chatting for so long, and now they could hear some meaning.
So one of the two people was looking for something to ask Zhang An, and the other was looking for something to ask Su Ying.
Finally, they talked about some issues about finding a partner and starting a family when you are old enough.
The two people may have different concerns about other things, but when it comes to urging marriage.
Wu Qiuping and Wang Fang, two mothers in their forties, have so much in common.
It was like the two of them had found like-minded comrades.
Because both of them worry about their children's life events every day.
At the end of the conversation, Wang Fang asked Wu Qiuping in a joking tone if she liked her son.
If you can like him, you might as well let Zhang An be Wu Qiuping's son-in-law and honor them both.
Throughout the conversation, there was no intention of avoiding the two children.
Zhang An didn't care, he was already thick-skinned and couldn't be thicker.
But Su Ying's face turned red and she buried her head in embarrassment.
These words touched Wu Qiuping's heart, and she was worried that she didn't know how to speak.
So as soon as Wang Fang finished speaking, she continued to talk. Otherwise, she was worried that her daughter would be bored for some time.
So I talked to Wang Fang in a joking tone right now.
"How could you look down on such a good young man? Xiao An, what do you think of Yingying? If you are right, I will take you seriously."
It was as if this matter was decided between the two of them in just a few words.
"Mom, you~"
Su Ying was always extremely shy, and now her mother said so.
As if someone had exposed his inner thoughts, he covered his face in shame and ran outside.
It is normal for daughters to be shy, Wang Fang saw this.
Then he looked at his somewhat indifferent son, with a look of hatred on his face.
"Xiao An, it's dark now. You can take a flashlight and light the way for Xiao Ying."
Zhang An was clicked by his own mother, and he knew what it meant.
At first he thought it was a joke, but it turned out that the two of them were singing a duet for a long time.
So I took a flashlight and went out to find Su Ying.
After Su Ying left the yard, she ran to the river and stayed there.
It's like watching the quietly flowing river calm down your pounding heart.
She knew that her old mother would be looking for trouble, and she kept feeling something was wrong in the morning.
In her imagination, even if it was possible for the two of them, it would be done step by step and slowly.
Instead of talking about it right away, if Zhang An doesn't mean it, how can she be embarrassed to face Zhang An in the future?
When I saw Zhang An coming, my heart that had just finally calmed down began to beat wildly again.
She felt her face burning, getting hotter and hotter.
But at the same time, I was also glad that it was night, and the surroundings were completely dark, so Zhang An couldn't see anything strange about him.
"You~"
"You~"
After the two of them stayed together for a while, they actually started talking at the same time.
"You go ahead and say it."
"Zhang An, don't take what my mother says seriously, she was joking."
Su Ying lowered her head and explained to Zhang An in a voice as loud as a mosquito.
"Hey, it turns out that Teacher Su doesn't like me. Fortunately, I took it seriously before."
Hearing what Su Ying said, Zhang An said in his heart that he was not disappointed, but that was a lie.
Su Ying's appearance is not bad, on the contrary, she quite suits Zhang An's aesthetics.
Love at first sight, to put it bluntly, is love at first sight.
As Zhang An spoke, he lowered his head and sighed, his tone revealing a very disappointed look.
But when she heard Zhang An speak in such a low tone, Su Ying panicked.
"It's not like this, Zhang An, don't be like this. I actually like you, but it's too fast and I'm not used to it."
So Su Ying didn't care about anything else and said everything in her heart to Zhang An.
In the end, she was almost crying as she talked. She was worried about what Zhang An would do next if she really misunderstood.
Zhang An originally wanted to liven up the atmosphere and make everyone less embarrassed.
But as soon as Su Ying finished saying this, it was his turn to be a Muggle.
But Zhang An is not a fool, even though he never had a serious relationship in his previous life.
But after all, he had watched a few episodes of the TV series and knew what the plot was.
Su Ying has said so, how can he, a grown man, shrink back?
In addition, I drank a little more wine with Su Ying's father in the evening.
Although he was not drunk, the evening breeze was blowing in his face, and Zhang An was feeling a little drunk.
It just goes with the saying, if you are not drunk with wine, everyone will get drunk.
The so-called drunken and cowardly Zhang An, who was usually honest, suddenly made a bold move.
He suddenly pulled Su Ying next to him and held her in his arms.
Su Ying was already panicking, but when Zhang An attacked her like this, her whole body suddenly shut down.
There is only a blank left in my mind, and I can't think about anything.
Feeling the warm fragrance in his arms, especially Su Ying's rapid breath, Zhang An felt a little distracted.
"Actually, I also like Teacher Su. If that's the case, then the two of us will get along."
Knowing the thoughts of other girls, Zhang An, some of the superiors, had no intention of continuing to be a stuffy guy.
Smelling the fragrance coming from her hair, Zhang An whispered in Su Ying's ear.
Su Ying had never experienced such a scene before. Her mind went blank just now, and she still hasn't recovered from it until now.
Listening to Zhang An's gentle words, my heart was pounding like a deer, pounding wildly.
When she was hugged by Zhang An, she subconsciously wanted to break away from Zhang An's arms.
But Zhang An was as strong as an ox, so he struggled several times but failed to break free.
In the end, Zhang An hugged her quietly.
"Uh-huh."
Now Su Ying was very ashamed and had no choice but to rest her head on Zhang An's shoulder.
At this time, a very comfortable smell came.
She knew that this was Zhang An's taste, and she felt very comfortable when they were together.
The two of them were so close today, and Su Ying got even more excited.
Unknowingly, I lost myself a little bit.
They didn't know how long they hugged each other, and Su Ying slowly calmed down.
"Zhang An, can you let me go? I feel a little out of breath."
Although it was not a formal scene just now, the two of them had confirmed their relationship.
But Su Ying is still very shy.
"Okay, I'll let go now."
Zhang An heard this and let go of Su Ying.
Zhang An, who was originally on top, now regained his composure.
I wondered if this would be too fast, but then I thought about it, I am living in the 1990s now.
It is completely different from that of later generations. In later generations, when men and women want to confirm their relationship, they have to talk about how to get to know each other for a while.
In this era, there are not so many considerations. As long as a man and a woman look at each other, it is only a matter of a day or two.
Some people just meet once on a blind date and have already decided, and that's fast.
"Let's go over there and sit for a while. It's okay to stand all the time."
Zhang An used a flashlight to shine on the big rock not far away.
Su Ying naturally had no objection and allowed Zhang An to lead her forward.
The two of them sat on the big stone by the river. Zhang An squeezed Su Ying's delicate hand, feeling a little moved.
Seeing that Su Ying was still a little shy, Zhang An thought of some jokes that he had seen later, which made Su Ying amused.
In early spring, the temperature difference between day and night is relatively large.
Especially in early spring in this mountain forest, the temperature is only single digits at night.
Su Ying was in a hurry when she ran out just now, and she didn't even put on her coat.
At this moment, a gust of evening wind blew, and Su Ying shivered uncomfortably.
Although the movement range was not very large, Zhang An could still clearly feel it.
So he immediately took off his coat and put it on Su Ying's shoulders.
I feel Zhang An's care and Zhang An's warmth remains on my clothes.
Su Ying couldn't help but wonder, is this what her college roommates said about the feeling of falling in love?
At this time, the surface of the calm river suddenly rolled.
Su Ying was frightened by the sudden movement and firmly grasped Zhang An's big hand with both hands.
Zhang An turned on the flashlight and looked into the river where there was movement.
It turned out to be the big herring that was released into the river by Zhang An. At this moment, he probably sensed that Zhang An was here and swam out to say hello to Zhang An.
"Don't be afraid, this is a big herring. I caught it before, and I put it back later. It came to say hello to us."
After hearing Zhang An's explanation, Su Ying's tense nerves relaxed.
"Is this fish so big?" Through the flashlight, Su Ying could already see the huge head of the big herring.
"Of course, it weighs 107 pounds. It should be the dominant one in the water in this section of the river."
Then Su Ying was a little curious about how Zhang An caught it, and Zhang An slowly told Su Ying what happened yesterday.
"Would you like to touch it?"
Seeing the big herring's head floating up and down on the river, Zhang An looked at Su Ying who was eager to try and asked.
"Will it be touched by me?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang An took Su Ying's hand and placed it on the fish's head.
At this moment, the big herring shook his head like a demon and kept rubbing Su Ying's hand.
"Hey, Zhang An, it actually hit the palm of my hand."
Su Ying found that the fish cooperated with her very well, and she was very happy.
In fact, it was only when Zhang An brought the big herring into space that he discovered that space can also slightly affect some creatures in the water.
But for simple-minded fish, big blue carp is the first fish that can take the initiative to get close to Zhang An.
However, Zhang An also thought it was normal. After all, this big herring must be quite old, so it is naturally special than other fish.
Since the layer of paper between the two of them was torn tonight, Su Ying and Zhang An have begun to become closer.
As both of them were immersed in it, they didn't realize that time was passing faster and faster.
