It was completely dark when Cheng Wanqiu returned to Taoyuan Village after dealing with all the matters. He took a taxi from the passenger station and took him directly to the entrance of the village.

At this time, the right side of Taoyuan Village was almost brightly lit. A few suspended headlights illuminated the area covered by mud and rocks as if it were daytime. You could hear a lot of machinery running and people shouting. It was a very chaotic mess. lively.

After Cheng Wanqiu paid the money and took his luggage, he walked towards the empty village entrance with a bakery box in one hand.

After walking through the chaotic and orderly rescue site, Cheng Wanqiu was surprised to find that the commissary was almost involved, but luckily the mud and rocks were blocked by a two-and-a-half-story building, so he escaped unharmed.

The uncle of the canteen was standing at the door of the store, and he saw Cheng Wanqiu coming back from a distance, and waved to him, "I haven't seen you for a few days, where are you going?"

"My aunt's house." Cheng Wanqiu asked worriedly, "Are you all right?"

"It's okay, everyone is fine, it's a pity that the house is lost, but I heard from the village committee that there is no need to worry about the rebuilding of the house. After all, it is a natural disaster that has been in the news. The relevant departments will worry about it, and we don't have to pay for it ourselves."

Cheng Wanqiu nodded after listening, and said goodbye to the uncle and turned to walk towards the ancestral hall. Along the way, he saw many people holding pots and pans in their hands. The smell of the food was very strong, and it should be given to the rescuers.

Afraid of bumping into them, Cheng Wanqiu purposely stood by the side of the road against the wall for a while, waiting for them to pass before continuing on.

The ancestral hall of Taoyuan Village is in the center of the village, surrounded by several big banyan trees. Cheng Wanqiu seldom comes here. The last time he came here, there was no one in the dark. Now when he looked again, he saw a lot of people and several lights. The headlights stand outside the ancestral hall, and you can still smell the food.

It seems that the meals that those people brought just now were prepared in the ancestral hall and sent over, because Cheng Wanqiu also saw several gas tanks standing in the corner.

Wang Jinyuan was just outside the ancestral hall, standing and chatting with some good people in the village, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye, turned his head and saw that it was Cheng Wanqiu, and after a moment of surprise, he was overjoyed, "Brother Wanqiu! "

Cheng Wanqiu walked towards him, and handed him a paper box in his hand, "I bought it on the way back."

Wang Jinyuan took the paper box, knowing that Cheng Wanqiu was looking for Lin Chu, he pointed him in the direction, "Brother, you can see him when you go in, he is very conspicuous."

Cheng Wanqiu smiled, raised his hand and patted his shoulder, and walked towards the gate of the ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall in Taoyuan Village is very large, it is a courtyard with three entrances, Lin Chu is inside, it is indeed very conspicuous as Wang Jinyuan said.

There are people coming and going in the ancestral hall, but he is like a pink pearl, letting you see him at the first sight when you come in, sitting quietly in the corner, with a simple straw mat under your body.

He was playing with his phone with his head down, so he didn't see Cheng Wanqiu coming in. When he found someone standing beside him, he looked up and saw Cheng Wanqiu.

Seeing the busy people, they obviously rushed back, Lin Chu frowned slightly, "What are you in a hurry for?"

"Come back in a hurry to take in the homeless Peach Essence."

"...Don't call me Tao Zijing... I won't be homeless, I can go to seek refuge with Brother Dong."

Cheng Wanqiu squatted down and was at eye level with him, "Why do you have to seek refuge with Brother Dong? Can't you seek refuge with me?"

Lin Chu avoided his gaze and lowered his head to play with his mobile phone without looking up, "I don't want to trouble you, and your grandma is at home."

"She's at my aunt's house, and she probably won't be back in a short time."

Lin Chu fiddled with his mobile phone, "...then I don't want to bother you."

"I never found you troublesome."

"No... I always feel weird."

"because I like you?"

Lin Chu curled his lips and fell silent.

Cheng Wanqiu looked at him, "I can give you my room, and then I'll sleep in the living room."

Lin Chu refused without thinking, "No."

How can there be any reason why the host sleeps in the living room?

"I play the floor."

"No."

Cheng Wanqiu sighed helplessly, "Then what do I have to do to make you agree to come to my house instead of looking for Brother Dong?"

Lin Chu turned to look at him, "It's obviously a better choice for me to seek refuge with Brother Dong. It will be very convenient for me to go to work."

Cheng Wanqiu didn't dare to say that he knew Lin Chu very well, but he still had a certain degree of understanding. Hearing this, he was basically sure that Lin Chu would not go to Dong Ge, but this awkward Tao Zijing didn't want to agree to come to him so easily. Home.

Cheng Wanqiu knew very well that Lin Chu was a person who took the soft but not the hard, so after thinking about it, he said, "Can't you just stay with me?"

Lin Chu frowned, "Are you a child and still need someone to accompany you?"

"My grandma is not at home. I cook for myself. It's a waste of firewood. If I cook more rice, I can't finish it and it will waste food."

Lin Chu raised his eyebrows and looked at him without speaking.

Cheng Wanqiu: "Come to my house, Lin Chu."

After speaking, he raised the box in his hand, "Do you want to eat cake?"

Lin Chu glanced at the box in his hand and then at him. He recognized the bakery. Brother Dong’s girlfriend liked the tiramisu from that shop the most. I gave him a piece. It was delicious but a bit expensive , a small piece that is not as big as a palm costs more than ten yuan. Lin Chu likes to eat but is not willing to buy it.

I didn't expect Cheng Wanqiu, a spender, to buy such a big box.

Cheng Wanqiu didn't understand Lin Chu's eyes, and said, "I'm not sure which one you like, so I bought everything."

Lin Chu stood up with the straw mat under him, patted his buttocks, "Are you fishing bait?"

Cheng Wanqiu shook his head, "I just passed by and saw the beautiful cakes in the window, and I wanted to buy them for you, so I bought them back."

Lin Chu was startled when he heard that, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "...I'm a little thirsty."

After finishing speaking, he walked out of the ancestral hall, Cheng Wanqiu turned around and followed, until he reached a place where no one could be seen, Cheng Wanqiu suddenly took out a can of things from his backpack and handed it to Lin Chu.

It's a can of Wangzai milk, with a big-eyed cartoon character on the red packaging.

Lin Chu and Wang Zai in his hand looked at each other, and looked at Cheng Wanqiu with indescribable eyes, "Are you still drinking this?"

"Xinxin gave it to me when I was leaving, Xinxin is my cousin." Cheng Wanqiu said, reaching out to help Lin Chu open the tab, "She gave me two cans, I drank one on the way, and this one is for you. "

"You still take things from children? It looks like someone else's snacks."

"It's okay, I gave her 500 yuan pocket money, she can drink until she doesn't want to drink."

Lin Chu twitched the corners of his lips, but still drank the can of Wangzai milk from a strange child.

The two walked back to Cheng's house in a very quiet way, with almost no pedestrians in sight, and occasionally saw one or two hurrying towards the ancestral hall or the direction of rescue.

Lin Chu is a person who doesn't talk much, but sometimes he can't bear the silence so much, Cheng Wanqiu didn't speak, he thought for a while and asked, "Is your aunt okay?"

"She's fine." Cheng Wanqiu realized something after finishing speaking, and turned to look at him, "How do you know? I don't seem to have told you."

"........."

He could probably guess without mentioning Cheng Wanqiu, "Have you asked Xiao Yuan? Because you couldn't find me?"

Lin Chu drank Wangzai's milk silently, and quickly finished the small can of drink, "...I looked for it."

"Why are you looking for me?"

Lin Chu found a trash can, stood there, and threw the empty jar into it with a very precise and beautiful parabola, "Why are there so many? Isn't it human nature to look for it when you can't see it?"

Cheng Wanqiu laughed silently because of Lin Chu's righteousness, "You're right."

Cheng Wanqiu and Grandma Cheng were in a hurry when they left. There were a lot of things in the house that were not prepared for not coming back in a short time. For example, there were unfinished dishes bought four days ago in the refrigerator.

Cheng Wanqiu used these dishes to make two bowls of tomato and egg noodles. The two steaming bowls of noodles were brought into the air-conditioned living room, where Lin Chu was sitting on the sofa and distracted.

Cheng Wanqiu gave him the noodles and chopsticks, "Don't worry, until the government rebuilds the house, you can live with me. I will take care of food and housing without charging any money."

Lin Chu looked at him, "It will take a long time."

"I know, that's why I have to rush back. I'm afraid that you really sleep in the ancestral hall, and I'm also afraid that you don't sleep in the ancestral hall."

Judging from Lin Chu's character, he might not accept the arrangement of the village committee. Unlike others, he has relatives who can help. He only has one person, and the result is nothing more than temporarily moving outside to find a rented house, or asking friends he knows for help. .

Compared with the latter, the possibility of the former is actually a bit greater, so Cheng Wanqiu may not see Lin Chu in Taoyuan Village for a long time, which makes him unacceptable.

Lin Chu buried his head in eating the noodles silently, without saying a word. He didn't put down his chopsticks until the soup bowl was bottomed out, and wiped his mouth with a tissue. "I'll stay if you charge me for accommodation and food."

"Forget about the food expenses, I just cook for one more person."

"What about the accommodation fee?" Lin Chu took out his mobile phone and was about to transfer money.

Cheng Wanqiu put down his chopsticks after eating the last mouthful of noodles, and began to clear the table, "Your accommodation fee cannot be paid with money."

Lin Chu looked at him suspiciously, "What's the use?"

Cheng Wanqiu picked up the bowls and chopsticks, got up and walked out, "I don't accept money from my sweetheart, think about it yourself."
