I wish it was just for you

Chapter 56 Chapter 56

After settling down in the village, I gradually became familiar with the regular life in the mountains where the sun rises and the sun sets. The night life is not fashionable in the village. People go to bed early and get up early, stay away from material and noise, and work diligently.

The villagers saw me a little strangely at first, but they became familiar with me after meeting a few times, and they called me Mr. Chen together with the children.

The headmaster's house is also near the school, and his wife is as enthusiastic as he is, and often asks me to come over for dinner.I am not good at cooking by myself, and the dishes in the small courtyard are very limited. When I go to the villagers’ houses to buy ingredients, they don’t charge me much, so I am embarrassed to go again, so I hand over the salary to the headmaster’s wife, and she arranges it.

She repeatedly declined, saying that she could not accept my money no matter what, and she reluctantly accepted it at my insistence.

This mountain village, where even the mobile phone signal is not stable, has another charm.Completely different from the previous trips, I am no longer just a passer-by for a short stay. I live in this place, like all the villagers, and a wonderful feeling spreads in my heart.

One Saturday morning, I planned to organize a book corner for the children during the weekend break, so that they could come to school to read books when they were off next week.Just as I was about to enter the school gate, I saw a group of villagers hurrying out of the village carrying hoes, one or two of whom were the parents of my students.

I was wondering, they are always leisurely and leisurely, with a look of ease.Just as he was about to ask, they quickly disappeared from sight.

Entering the school with doubts, the principal is also there.He was repairing the wooden basketball hoop that was damaged by the children on the open space in front of the school building where the children played and played sports. I asked about the scene I saw at the door just now.

——Principal, I saw everyone rushing out of the village with hoes, but what are they going to do?

——Summer is here, and there will be a flood season soon. The mountains in this area are prone to landslides. They have gone to strengthen the mountains.

——Is it just a few of them?

——The town will also send people to bring some materials, saying that they will arrive later.

——How much rain is there in summer?

——Well, many.By the way, Mr. Chen, you don't understand the situation. It may rain for a long time next time. The laundry should be dried in the sun for a few days. You should also check whether the house is leaking. If you find a hole, tell me quickly. I need someone to make up for it.

—I see, Headmaster.I'll take a closer look when I go back later.

--Um.When you get older, it's easy to forget things. Fortunately, if you ask, it won't be a big deal.

——It's all right, the house doesn't look like a major problem.

—By the way, Mr. Chen, what are you doing here on Saturday?

——I want to organize a book corner for the children.

—Oh yes, you told me about it, and I'll help when I fix the basket.

—Do you need my hand first?

——No, no, no, I'll be fine soon.

--OK.Then I'll sort it out first.

- let's go.

After I finished speaking, I walked into the room on the far right. This room was originally filled with a lot of sundries, most of which were useless wood and tiles. It is said that they were left over from the construction of the school building.

Last week, I happened to be repairing the roof of the school building, and I removed all the tiles in the house.I thought the house was pretty good, and it was too wasteful to pile up sundries, so I asked a villager who was a carpenter to help tidy up the house, and nailed some of the wood into a four-story high bookshelf. Two floors are for the lower grades, and the rest of the wooden strips are nailed into stools.

I first took a big broom to sweep away the dust in the house, wiped the bookshelves, wooden benches, doors and windows with a rag, sorted the few stored books, and then dug a few small flowers with roots around the school and transplanted them to the collected small In the soil urn, fill the soil, sprinkle water, and place it on the bookshelf. After everything is ready, sit on a chair to rest, and wait for the bookshelf to dry out.

The work was finished before the headmaster came. I looked at the slightly empty bookshelf, thinking about when I would ask someone to go to the town and buy some books back.

In the open space in front of the school building, I met the principal again. He was straightening the basket and checking the repair situation.I went over to ask if there was anything I needed to help with. The principal was surprised that I had already done everything, and lamented that young people are so agile.

The headmaster checked the basket, and I went home with him. The headmaster's wife was making lunch and shouted happily when she saw us come back.After a while of activities in the morning, I was hungry, and the meal was delicious.After eating and returning to the dormitory, I carefully checked the corners of the room and took a nap after making sure there were no gaps.

A week later, as the principal said, it started to rain continuously.The rain was not heavy, but it kept falling. I took the children to sit by the window of the classroom to listen to the sound of rain, and then asked them to imagine what the sound of rain was like.

They rushed to answer, some said it was like the sound of falling beads, some said it was like the sound of well water, and some said it was like the sound of mother snoring. All the students burst into laughter.

After school, I stood on the classroom porch leaning against the wall and continued to listen to the sound of the rain, reluctant to leave.I have seen it rain too many times, but there are very few pure rain sounds like this. The rain is a bit heavy, and many sounds are intertwined.There is the patter of rainwater hitting the ground, and the snorting sound of wind blowing trees in the distance, and the sound of raindrops falling into the ground water can be heard carefully.

The crisp, cool air smelled strongly of grass and earth, and it smelled wonderful.

It rained continuously for two whole weeks, and one night it suddenly rained heavily, lightning flashed in the sky, and thunder roared like a roar from ancient times.I was a little scared, but it was raining just as I was about to fall asleep, so I didn't even care about being frightened, and fell asleep in a daze.

I had a dream, dreaming of Peipei, she was standing in a halo of light, the light was very dazzling, I couldn't fully open my eyes, I could only half-closed, but I knew clearly that it was Peipei .Her voice came from the most dazzling place in the light, and she only said two words.

Goodbye.

I woke up with a start, and it was already daylight.The rain was much lighter. I heard that although the mountain was strengthened, it still couldn't bear the long-term rain. The mountain collapsed and the way in and out was blocked to death. Fortunately, there were no casualties.There is no mobile phone signal in the village, even the signal in the southwest corner. The villagers are familiar with it, and they say that the signal tower must have fallen down again.

I was a little anxious, afraid that my parents would be anxious if I lost contact, and today happened to be the day when Peipei would answer the phone.The town quickly sent personnel and tools over to cooperate with the villagers who had already cleaned the road there. They were worried that there would be a second landslide. Everyone paid special attention, but fortunately, the rain stopped and the sky began to clear up.

It has been three days since I got the mobile phone signal. I immediately called my mother. My mother was crying on the other end of the phone. I thought it was my loss of contact these days that made her worry. I apologized repeatedly. I couldn’t help but get red. orbital.

I didn't think about it, but my mother told me to go back to City X quickly, no matter what the cost, go back as fast as possible, immediately, immediately.
