Chapter 341 Small Forest
Xiaolin is a small village located in a small town in the northeast region. There are no shops here. If you just buy necessities, you can go to the village center where the government office is located. There is a small supermarket run by the Agricultural Cooperative and several shops.The outbound journey is basically downhill, and it takes about half an hour to ride a bicycle, but how long does it take for the return journey?In winter, because of the snow on the road, you can only walk there. If you are not in a hurry, you will have to walk for an hour and a half...
However, most of the residents go shopping in the large supermarkets outside the city in Linzhen. If they take the bus, it will take a day to go back and forth.
With Chiba's help, Su Li took out the original owner's two large suitcases from the tram, held an umbrella and stood under the roadside stop sign, feeling the damp breath blowing towards her face. This is where the original owner once lived. It is the place where I have lived for 13 years, and it is also the place I want to come to immediately after the failure of the college entrance examination.
She glanced at Chiba, who was only carrying a computer bag and a luggage bag, and smiled sweetly: "Thank you."
"Adults should help children." Chiba held a big dark blue umbrella and smiled gently.With a charming Qingjun breath.
Qianye Ling, male, 28 years old, a writer of children's literature, came here to seek inspiration.The two sat together on the tram, chatting naturally, and now they can barely be called ordinary friends... right?
Su Li looked up again at Chiba, who had 188, then lowered her head, took out her mobile phone from her bag and called her sister Shizi.
"Sister..." Su Li's voice was sweet and glutinous, which made Shizi, who was agitated by the humid weather, feel much more at ease.
"I got it, I got it, I asked Yuta to pick you up, you just stand under the stop sign and don't walk around, you know?"
"Sister, I'm dead, I won't get lost..."
"You're only 18 years old and you've already dared to run away from home!" Shi Zi remembered that she received a call from her younger sister two hours ago, saying that she was going to join her, and she was startled.In a hurry, I went to the forest farm to find Yu Tai and the owner of the forest farm borrowed a car to pick him up.
Speaking of it, the academic performance of the two sisters seems to be not particularly good. She didn't go to college back then, and started working after graduating from high school.The younger sister whom I haven't seen for five years, like myself, fled back to the small forest when I encountered failure.
Su Li smiled flatteringly: "I left a note for my mother, she will see it, it's not counted as running away from home."
The original owner was Xizi, who will only turn 18 next month. She was depressed after failing the college entrance examination in the spring, and she still failed the exam again. After thinking about it, she decided to return to the small forest where she lived as a child to heal her wounds.So, the wayward child packed two big boxes full of clothes, took his few savings, left a note for his mother, bought a ticket and took the tram back to Xiaolinlin Town.
The rain kept falling, making a crackling sound when it hit the mountain. To Su Li, who likes rain, it could be called a cheerful movement.She curled her mouth and happily hummed an unsung tune, shaking her head and waiting for Yuta to pick him up.
The person who picked up Chiba came earlier than Yu Tai, Qianye waved to Su Li, got into the black car, and the two agreed to settle down and visit each other.Although the two of them haven't talked about the topic of home address at all...
Su Li enjoyed the atmosphere of standing alone in the rain with an umbrella——
It was the rainy season at this time, and the whole weather was foggy and wet. It was clear that no rain had hit her, but it had only been a few minutes since she got off the tram, and she felt that her clothes were sticking to her body—— It's a bit uncomfortable, it's better to be drenched in the rain!
Just when she couldn't help but want to throw away the umbrella and run around in the rain, Yuta drove over in the pickup truck borrowed from the ranch.
Su Li showed a bright smile, jumped up and down and waved: "Yuta! Here!"
"Xizi?" Faced with a bright smile, few people can refuse, although it has been five years since Yuta returned Su Li's gentle smile, the five years of unfamiliarity faded away in an instant.
Yuta got out of the car and put the two large suitcases that Su Li had brought into the car, and they chatted enthusiastically on the way back.
"Are you going to stay for a long time when you come back this time? Two big suitcases?" Yuta looked at the 18-year-old girl with the same height as her 13-year-old girl with a funny look, and added another question with evil intentions. Word: "You, it seems that you haven't grown taller?"
"Shut up!" Su Li gave Yuta a fierce look.Don't mention it, okay? !She hasn't grown so short for a long time! 158!Mingming's sister and mother are quite tall and said, why is her body only 158...
"Okay, okay, don't talk, don't talk..." Yutai was so cute by Su Li's expression that was not at all fierce, she waved her hand to make a promise with a suppressed smile, and then asked the previous question again: "This time, is it coming back?" Are you going to stay longer?"
Su Li nodded: "Yes!"
"The small forest is a very good place." Because of the rain, Yuta drove very slowly, and the quiet atmosphere outside the car window rushed towards the two people in the car.The whole person calmed down because of the large expanse of greenery.The rainy season here is bright and plump, and the water in the branches and leaves of the grass and trees is saturated, which made her fully understand a word - green and oily.
Yuta's voice sounded softly: "It will accept all those who come back, giving people peace and tranquility."
Su Li understood this sentence, she turned her head to look at Yuta with a very dissatisfied expression: "I didn't escape!" Although the original owner escaped, she was not!Anyway, you can live anywhere, why not spend your whole life in a small forest with beautiful scenery and simple folk customs?
She has always been full of love for the countryside!
Yuta calmly pointed out the reason why the original owner went back to the small forest: "Shizi said you failed the college entrance examination."
"Yeah, I failed..." Su Li rolled down the car window, put her arms on the car door, and accepted the rainwater that was thrown towards her face, with a lively and cheerful expression on her face: "Failing the college entrance examination is not a big deal. It just made me realize that I'm not fit to be a scholar. Maybe, I'm a successful farmer!"
"seriously?"
"Just kidding..." Su Li shaved her face in embarrassment: "Actually, Mom seems to be making up her mind to do something. I'm very happy that she finally stepped out of the way that she should have done a long time ago but because of lack of courage But I didn’t take that step. And I will be 18 years old in a few months, and I can leave my mother and start my own life journey!”
"So you went back to the small forest and looked for Shizi?"
"Sister, maybe she will make up her mind at a certain moment, right?" Su Li rolled up the window and leaned on the back of the chair relaxedly: "After all, she is much braver than her mother, although both of them are equally stubborn. "
"Stubbornness—" Yuta laughed: "I completely agree."
"I like the little forest very much, and I dream about it many times at night." Su Li had a happy smile on her face, her big eyes were bright and frank, and the little girl's love for the little forest could not be stopped at all.
The tram station is not close to the small forest. If you drive, it will take more than two hours. If you ride a bicycle, it will take a day to go back and forth.In the memory of the original owner, he has basically never been to this wealthy town with a tram stop.
Because of the rain, it was almost dark when the two returned to the small forest.Yuta helped Su Li move two big suitcases back to the original owner's home on a small slope.Shizi had already prepared a table of meals and waited at the door.
"Sister!" Su Li beckoned cheerfully, struggling to carry her suitcase.The residents of the small forest don't do too much decoration on their front yards, and it's really difficult to deal with the mud on a rainy day.
After dinner, the two sisters sat and chatted in front of the short table. The first sentence was about each other's situation——
Shi Zi was the first to speak, "How have you been all these years?"
Su Li smiled and nodded: "It's okay, although I always move."
"Wouldn't you be tired if you always move house?"
"It's okay..." Su Li lay on the low table as if she had no bones, and talked about the situation of the original owner in the past few years: "Mom seems to be looking for something, and keeps moving from one place to another. Now, I feel like she's about to make up her mind, and I don't want to move anymore."
Shizi asked worriedly: "Aren't you going to work?" You must know that I had worked for several years before I had the courage to escape back to rest for a while.Although most of the food in the small forest is self-sufficient, the cost is much lower than that in the city, but the annual utility bills and living expenses are actually quite a lot.
Su Li nodded, remembering the large box of Japanese Yen in her space, but she still found a very legitimate reason: "My English is very good, and I started to accept translation jobs online when I was a sophomore in high school. If it’s Little Forest, it’s no problem to support yourself!”
Shizi felt relieved: "That's good."
Then the topic turned sideways and turned to farming, because Shizi was the only one in previous years, and she didn't plant much land, which was only enough for her to feed herself for a little more than a year.Now that Su Li is back, if there are two of them, the rice planted in the field will definitely not be enough in the end.
Su Li dug out the delicious organic and pesticide-free rice from the original owner's memory, and asked tentatively, "Is it too late to replant now?"
"At present, it should be possible, but the harvest must not be that good." Shizi thought for a while and gave an affirmative answer.The seedlings in the field have not been planted for a long time. Although it is a bit late to replant now, the cold snap will come after a while after the autumn harvest, so it doesn't matter.It's just that the harvest will definitely be affected.
