Fantasy world

When devolved to rural areas, the initial experience was twice as painful. One is the tempering of the body and will, and the other is the torture of loneliness and loneliness. Although Uncle Mi and Aunt Mi are as close to me as family, it is inevitable that I feel lonely and melancholy many times.

I miss home, that is, I miss my closest relatives at home. My mom and I are not in good health, and my dad is still in the bullpen. I often write letters to them silently in the dead of night. However, after the letters were written, they were all hidden under the box. I don’t want to send my grievances and fragility to my relatives, and let them endure the same torture as me.

What happened to Yu Ruonan? She said she would come to see me after she settled down. More than a month has passed and she hasn't settled down yet? It sounds nice, so I don’t expect it anymore!

At this time, I can't help but think of Zhang Xiaolian in my mind. I don't know why, when I think of her, my heart beats fast and my face feels hot. Her look made me feel an indescribable kindness and dependence. It just so happens that she is Michelle's cousin. Now that I am Xueer and Xiaoqiang’s brother, isn’t she also my cousin? To be honest, in this remote village, in lonely days, it is a blessing to have a cousin like Zhang Xiaolian.

One day when I got home from work, I just walked to the door and saw Zhang Xiaolian appearing at home. My eyes suddenly blurred with tears. A sudden wave of heat surged through my heart, like seeing a loved one.

When I saw her coming, I avoided her from a distance and quickly wiped away my tears. I didn't want her to see my grievance and vulnerability.

I returned home, put away the farm tools, and then slowly approached her:"Secretary Zhang! You are here!""

"How about it? Is this okay during this time?

Michelle rushed forward and hugged my arm tightly:"Brother!" My cousin is afraid that you won’t be able to bear the hardship and will become a deserter!"

When I heard this, my heart felt hot again and my nose felt sour. I quickly controlled it and deliberately pulled Michelle to cover myself up:"How could that be? Captain Qingyuan takes good care of me, and so does Uncle Mi and Aunt Mi. How could I be a deserter?"

"What about me? I even step on your back every day!"

My face suddenly felt hot again, and I pinched Michelle secretly, causing her to howl exaggeratedly. Zhang Xiaolian seemed to have seen my embarrassment, and then she smiled again and came up to pull Michelle away from me. Come down:"I heard Xue'er say, are you really teaching her to play the piano? Isn't this little thing quite annoying?"

"I stepped on his back and he taught me to play the piano, but I still suffered! You still speak for him, huh! Partiality!"Michelle directed at both of us, unwilling to be outdone at all. This made Zhang Xiaolian and I a little at a loss.

Zhang Xiaolian specially brought some meat from home to improve my life. In those days, pork was supplied by ticket. Country people cannot eat meat more than once a year. Zhang Xiaolian handed a small piece of pork to Michelle

"Let’s get it stewed soon, and the whole family can enjoy it!"

"Then we all benefit from my brother!"

"go! Then don’t eat it for a while!"

Aunt Mi came out of the wing and saw Michelle pestering me and Zhang Xiaolian like this, so she immediately arranged for her to add firewood to the stove. She deliberately made some space for Zhang Xiaolian and me. Zhang Xiaolian glanced at me quietly, and my face suddenly looked like I was scalded by boiling water and felt swollen and painful from the heat.

Zhang Xiaolian handed me the bench and motioned for me to sit down, looking a little embarrassed.

"Still - can you bear it?"

"not bad!"

"Don’t be too hasty, you’ll get used to it slowly!"

"Secretary Zhang! I-I'm fine! All good!"

"You are still young, don't hold on. I told Captain Qingyuan that even if you are here to receive education, you still have to give yourself some time to adapt."

"It’s really good. Captain Qingyuan is very good to me, my family is also very good to me, and everyone in the team is also very good to me."

"That's good! When you come here and get along well with everyone, this is a good start! In the future - if you encounter any difficulties, you can always come to me"

"looking for you——"

"you forgot! I am the team secretary! You are also a member!"

"yes! I'm a member!"

"That's it! Then if you encounter anything in the future, you can report it to me!"

"Secretary Zhang! Thank you!"

"Hao Bin! You - don't always be so polite to me in the future. You live in your uncle and aunt's house. You see, Xue'er already regards you as her brother! My cousin is no longer here, and my uncle and aunt treat you as my cousin."

"Yes! I feel like I'm back at home here"

"That's it! When you are sent to the countryside to settle down, it is just like going home. From now on, you should treat Xue'er and Xiaoqiang as your younger brothers and sisters, and I will treat you as my cousin."

"Secretary Zhang——"

"how? Do you dislike us country folk?"

"No! no! I——"

"How much older am I than you? Are you still at a disadvantage when you call me cousin?"

"That's not what I meant;——"

"When you live at my uncle's house, everyone is like a family. This way we are more intimate and take care of each other."

"Secretary Zhang! I——"

"You are already so old, a boy, but you are still so shy? Don’t be so rusty again!"

"Um!"

I said"Hmm" softly, and Zhang Xiaolian blushed. Then she stood up, hiding the blush on her face, and hurried into the side room to help with work.

By the time the meal was served, my nose had already smelled the aroma, This made my breath feel sour again. I don’t know why Zhang Xiaolian is so kind to me, but I deeply feel her affection for me.

During the meal, Michelle still showed extra excitement and activity. She was still as arrogant as a child, as unscrupulous as a child, and as naughty as a child. She brought out the food, arranged the bowls and chopsticks, and pulled Zhang Xiaolian and I down on the same stool to sit down. It made Zhang Xiaolian and I both miserable. Everyone was extremely embarrassed. She started to get tired of eating, and she couldn't stop talking. One moment she said she wanted me to be her brother, and the next she said she wanted me to be her cousin-in-law. She talked nonsense like this, and finally pissed Mi off. Aunt, Aunt Mi raised her chopsticks and hit her head hard several times before she calmed down.

Aunt Mi was probably afraid that I would misunderstand, so she deliberately asked about Zhang Xiaolian’s partner in front of me. Zhang Xiaolian hesitated. She didn't answer directly. Aunt Mi had to explain everything clearly in a roundabout way. It turned out that Zhang Xiaolian's partner was in the army, and it was said that she had just recently proposed sex. At that time, for these country girls, it was the biggest happy event. At that time, When children from rural areas become soldiers, they have two goals. Either they can be promoted to commercial grain, and they can be resettled when they return to work. Or they can be converted into volunteers. After serving enough years in the army, they can eventually be transferred to the army. When a girl from the countryside looks for a partner to be a soldier, she also hopes that the partner will be promising, so that she can join the army and eventually become a farmer. Aunt

Mi mentioned Zhang Xiaolian's partner today and praised her endlessly. But I didn't see the slightest excitement or relief in Zhang Xiaolian's attitude and expression. She was trying to prevaricate and avoid it. It was the first time Zhang Xiaolian came to see me, and she said so many heart-warming words to me before eating. , I was extremely grateful in my heart, and I really felt the warmth of home. I also secretly made up my mind to do it right at the dinner table, in front ofUncle and aunt, please express your gratitude and gratitude. Consider yourself officially a member of the family. However, when Michelle made such a fuss at the dinner table, I couldn't say a word and just focused on eating.
