Where is the joy

Secretary Xu seems not so happy recently.

Although she was happy, it was not so obvious.But when he was unhappy, it was too obvious, with a cold voice, no smile in his eyes, a serious expression, and an aura of not being close to strangers.

I had to stop the chopsticks she was going to pick up food, "Do you know what you are eating?"

She looked up at me, "Fish."

"Yes, fish, your favorite squirrel mandarin fish! I use mandarin fish for this recipe instead of common carp or other fish. The price of mandarin fish is not cheap. For me, go to the vegetable market to buy it first When I come back, I remove the scales and viscera, chop off the fish head, and cut the fish into a wheat ear flower knife. This process is a test of knife skills. The knife pattern and knife depth are even to look good, and the fish fillets cannot be broken. Then, I make powder, Prepare the marinade, prepare the green beans and pine nuts in the interim, and then deep-fry, arrange the plate, pour the marinade, and finally this plate of squirrel mandarin fish is what you see in front of you.”

Xu Qing looked at me a little puzzled, "Are you going to teach me how to cook?"

I couldn't laugh or cry, "Sister, I'm telling you that this dish has cost me a lot of hard work. How can you taste the taste of the food with your frowning look? It's for me and for you to not enjoy eating. Disrespect for this fish."

Xu Qing put down his chopsticks, "Am I frowning?"

"Yes, very much!" I stretched out my hand to smooth her frown, "Here, here, I am about to become an old woman. If you are like this, I will think you are disgusting my craftsmanship."

"No, the fish is delicious. It's just, um, a little thing at work, it doesn't matter." She frowned again, but didn't do anything else, and let me rub it between her eyebrows and eyes.

I rubbed the center of her eyebrows with my fingertips, thinking about it, I can soothe all her troubles.What is her trouble?I don't seem to know her troubles at all. I don't seem to know as much about this person in front of me as I imagined.

Maybe it's been a long time since I touched it, and the atmosphere was a little ambiguous for a while. She called my name softly, and I suddenly withdrew my hand.

I pretended to be casual and continued to pick up the chopsticks, "What's the matter at work, do you want to tell me about it?"

When talking about work, the ambiguous atmosphere just now gradually dissipated.

"We are close to the country of origin of jade, and the jade business is also a major tourist support here. But recently, the atmosphere in this town has become worse and worse. There have been several incidents of forced buying and selling, fraud, and price gouging. Yes. The police station has been called out several times this month. Yesterday, someone sold jade raw materials on the street, saying that it was a rough jadeite. In fact, he found a piece of ordinary stone with a hole in it, and then inlaid some surface. The whole stone is like that, and there are many people who have been fooled. I think if this is not rectified, it will undoubtedly be digging its own grave."

"Is it difficult to rectify?"

"Well, the relationship involved is a bit complicated, and no one is willing to compromise." Xu Qing said.

I added a piece of fish and put it in her bowl, "I haven't finished my work today, so I'll figure it out tomorrow. Now, you can eat well."

"The fish is delicious, and it's improved from last time."

"Just brag, you just want me to cook for you often, and I've seen through your plot."

"How about I give you some criticisms and correct you?"

"Don't, don't, I just love you and praise me."

"mock up."

Xu Qing got busy again.She took the name of cleaning up the environment and began to clean up the shops in the market town.She said that she has recently deeply understood the meaning of doing rural work. The so-called doing rural work is to do human work. One family is wrangling today, and the other family is petitioning/visiting tomorrow. They have to do their ideological work little by little.

People who work hard are beautiful.This kind of beauty has nothing to do with gender, has nothing to do with the face, but determination and courage, that kind of strength makes people addicted.Just like now, I like how she is deserted and busy.

There are brothers all over the world, and within a range of four kilometers, I couldn't see her for several days.

I don't know if she wants me or not.

That evening, after I had dinner, I suddenly received a call from her.

She said that she was in Fugui Village, and she took the lead in setting up a high-standard fungus production base there. She said that the company signed an agreement with several big households today, and she was very happy... Not like her usual style either.

"Have you been drinking?" I asked her.

"Well," she said with a lazy tone in her voice, "I drank a little."

Nothing like that at all.

"Chang Huan." She called me.

"what's wrong?"

"fine."

After a while, she asked, "Li Guangliang, has he been to your shop today?"

"No, do you need to find him?"

"It's okay, just ask."

For a few seconds, we didn't speak, and I could even hear her breathing, the chirping of insects on her side, and the sound of the wind.

"Have you noticed that you have changed a lot since you came here?" Xu Qing said slowly.

"Dark? Or strong?" I looked myself up and down.

She chuckled a few times, "No, she is still as beautiful as a flower." She paused, "But, she is more human than before."

"Is that good or bad?"

"Not good, many people are thinking about it."

"What was it like before?"

"Before, it looked like a burning fire. Come closer, it's cold."

"Isn't that a will-o'-the-wisp, you're cursing me around the corner."

"Haha..." Xu Qing laughed for a while.

Leaning against the door in the yard, I looked at the looming moon in the sky, and my heart moved, "Do you miss me?"

Her voice, still smiling, came clearly from the microphone, "Think!"

My face suddenly became hot, and my heart seemed to be filled with something that was about to overflow, as if the weight of my body suddenly disappeared, as light as a feather, and an impulsive thought came to my mind, to see her, Meet her now!

"Then I'll go see you." I said.

There was a pause there, "Don't, I'm in Fugui Village, it's a long way. It's getting dark, and the mountain road is not easy to walk. Besides, I'll be back tomorrow afternoon."

She was right!But I can't listen anymore.

This thing of reason, like a wild horse running wild at the moment, has run far away.

I caught a glimpse of Ah San passing by the gate of the yard carrying the plate he had been begging for during the day, I hung up the phone and called to him, "Ah San, I'll give you five dollars and call a car for me."

"Where are you going?"

"Fugui Village."

"It's so far away, five yuan is not enough, it costs 15 yuan."

I was so angry that I took off my shoes and threw him, "It's not your driving, I'll pay the fare separately. Just go to the intersection and call a car, if you don't go, forget it."

Ah San hid and quibbled, "Boss, it's getting dark, okay, it's not easy to call someone who is willing to go, give me some more, and I'm sure you can get a car for you."

"Six dollars!"

"Ten dollars!"

"Eight yuan! Don't shout and pull down!"

"make a deal!"

While Ah San was going to call the car, I tidied myself up a bit and simply brought some toiletries. After thinking about it, I went to the drawer and took a small jar of honey grapefruit tea.Before leaving, I wondered if it would be a bit cold in the mountains, so I turned around and took a small blanket with me.

After coming to the ancient town for so long, it was the first time for me to go back to Fugui Village.

Impulsivity is the devil!

I really underestimated the backwardness of this rich village, the car bumped all the way.

After walking for an hour, I thought it was quite romantic. There were bright stars above my head, and the mountain breeze gently brushed my cheeks. In order to meet my sweetheart, I was trembling on this country road;

Bumping for two hours, thinking about it and passing it, civilization is ahead, beauty is in the village;

After running for three hours, it still hasn't arrived yet. Really, I don't believe in human beings, I don't believe in love anymore...

I called and scolded Ah San, why the fuck did you find a tractor for my old lady?no car?You can't say it sooner without a car...

The old man who drove was obviously used to it, and he was still in the mood to tease his own village.

"In our place, I remember someone who talked about cross talk. How to say it, traffic basically depends on walking, communication basically depends on roaring, law and order basically depends on dogs, and entertainment basically depends on drinking! There are basically no people who make money! Haha, right? Is that what you say, girl?"

"Can I eat then?"

"There is still food, food basically depends on the party, but it is difficult to marry a wife, there are many bachelors, and marrying a wife basically depends on thinking!"

The old man laughed again, as if he forgot he just told me he had three bachelor sons.

Very far, very tired, very nervous.

However, on the way to the entrance of the village, I saw a familiar figure looking towards the intersection under the dim street lamp from a distance.

World, it's worth it!
