Gu Gong and He Songbai sat on the cold concrete floor, smoking and chatting, and they didn't stop talking until Dongfang gradually turned white.
Gu Gong said with emotion: "If there is a chance, I will definitely accept you as an apprentice. Although you are a little stupid, but you can endure hardships, you will definitely have a chance to learn civil engineering with me."
Saying that, he shook his head with a wry smile, "Forget it, the name of apprentice is not good, and I will never accept apprentices again in this life."
In fact, what kind of relationship is reliable these days...
He Songbai put the last cigarette on his nose, sniffed, and sneered: "You better take care of yourself."
"It's been so miserable, and you still want to accept apprentices?"
On the first day Gu Gong came to Hezitun, he wore a dark black tunic suit, which was meticulously ironed. An exquisite pen is pinned to the pocket on his chest. From head to toe, he reveals the nobleness of a high-level intellectual. He commanded the workers of the engineering team with a high-spirited taste.
For He Songbai and the lowest-level people who were counting on earning work points, being a worker was already a glorious profession, and Gu Gong was still the leader of the workers, which was even more remarkable. In the eyes of this group of peasants who were digging food in the fields, Gu Gong's whole body glowed with admiration and fear.
result…
A few days after the autumn harvest, Gu Gong, a high-level intellectual who was "high above the ground", suddenly became a reform-through-labor worker. The light all over his body fell instantly, and the speed at which it fell into the mud was astonishing, which was a very fresh experience for everyone.
He Songbai could only sympathize with his experience. All he can do is to help a little when he is free, and more is gone.
Even he himself is still a poor boy who has a miserable life haha and cannot protect himself. Where can you manage so much
However, my grandmother warned He Songbai from an early age to respect intellectuals. No matter in which era, intellectuals are the pillars of the construction of the motherland, and the prosperity of the country is inseparable from their contributions. Therefore, after He Songbai sent his beloved person back to sleep, he was afraid that Gu Gong, who fell into the quagmire, would feel guilty and couldn't think about it.
After He Songbai finished speaking, Gu Gong also fell silent.
He said a little embarrassedly: "Maybe it's because he thinks that there will be no one who will inherit the mantle in his later years, and he is a little unwilling."
He Songbai didn't care, he blew his nose and said in a hoarse voice: "You intellectuals are just as lofty as the sky and thinner than paper, and now you're still restless."
"My grandma has stayed overseas. All she can do now is eat, eat, sleep and sleep every day." He Songbai said lightly.
"There is nothing that can't be overcome, people's survival is the most important thing."
As soon as Gu Gong heard this, the vicissitudes of life suddenly became more bitter, and it was wrinkled into a ball of misery, as if tears could be squeezed out at any time.
He Songbai picked up his hoe and rushed into the field without saying a word.
…
Zhao Lanxiang got up early and made a breakfast, steaming white-flavored snow buns. She kneaded the dough over and over again, making it tough, and eating it while it was hot was sweet and soft. After making breakfast, she secretly glanced at the man's room and found that there was no one in the room at all.
Even the furnishings on the bed cover are still neat and tidy, and the clean clothes that have been changed and washed are still folded on the head of the bed without moving, looking like they haven't come back to sleep all night.
She immediately thought of the "Gong Gu" she met in Guchang last night. He Songbai's expression was a little weird last night. Dare you not return overnight
Zhao Lanxiang's eyes sank.
For breakfast, Sister He ate two steamed buns with hot water, and put two more in a cloth bag for lunch at noon.
Although Grandma told her that she had "paid" Zhao Zhiqing's meal, Big Sister He was still a little uneasy. She had planned to take all of Zhao Zhiqing's work on her own, but unfortunately Zhao Zhiqing's work was night watch. , this Sister He was unable to take care of her.
She was also responsible for carrying her grandma up at night, serving her to drink water and go to the toilet. The old man had a headache and had to watch from the side.
Sister He finished the breakfast with gratitude and thanked Zhao Lanxiang.
He Sanya took out all the wild fruits picked in the mountains in the evening and gave them to Sister Zhao to eat, her eyes like grapes showed a touch of sweetness and cuteness.
Zhao Lanxiang rubbed He Sanya's yellow hair and said, "I'll go hunting for hogweed with you later."
Sister He went to grab the food and take care of the cows and pigs in the brigade. These heavy tasks were placed on Sanya's weak shoulders. In fact, Zhao Lanxiang looked at the grain field at night, and also wanted to help Sanya. Seeing her carrying a bamboo basket that was taller than herself and wandering around on the mountain, Zhao Lanxiang was worried that she would not be able to do it.
After breakfast, Zhao Lanxiang carried a bamboo basket and went up the mountain with Sanya to pick hogweed. The so-called hogweed is alfalfa, also called golden cauliflower. It is mixed with rice bran and fed to pigs. Pigs grow meat very fast.
Sanya follows her eldest sister up the mountain to pick grass every day, and she can feel the grass where it grows beautifully and where it grows lush.
Before the little girl picked hogweed, she took Zhao Lanxiang to pick wild fruits. Clusters of red and blood-like berries grew by the grass and could be picked by bowing her head.
Sanya nodded with her little finger, and quickly picked a few and threw them into her mouth.
This kind of berry is called wild strawberry. It is the size of the little finger. It is not thick and juicy enough for the strawberry. It is sweet and sour, and it tastes unique. Zhao Lanxiang followed and tried it, and the wild strawberries were quickly "wasted" by the two of them.
Sanya jumped and took Zhao Lanxiang to pick up the mountain noodle, and walked happily singing folk songs all the way. The purple fruit was hidden in the green leaves, the little guy jumped and hooked the branch, quickly picked a pocket, let go of his hand and the branch bounced back with a "swoosh".
She was covered in messy leaves and needle-like thorns all over her body. She smiled and shyly grabbed a few fruits and handed them to Zhao Lanxiang.
Zhao Lanxiang sat on the mountain stone with her and solved half of the mountain nianzi. Sanya said, "I am very happy to be on the mountain with Sister Zhao."
Zhao Lanxiang touched her head.
Two people, one big and one small, went to the mountains to pick up two cages of pig grass, and it was almost time for lunch. Zhao Lanxiang carefully followed Sanya down the mountain along the mountain road. On the way, he met a few young people leading a small group of workers up the mountain.
They wore yellow engineering team uniforms, with high-spirited eyebrows and hidden pride.
Zhao Lanxiang and Sanya stopped and gave them the way to go first.
Three or four young people said in succession, "Hello, comrade!"
Zhao Lanxiang replied: "Hello, what are you going to do with so many things on your back?"
A worker said: "Prepare to survey the landforms. These are explosives. After dredging the water source, the dug ditches can be used for water."
Zhao Lanxiang said: "Then keep busy, let's go first."
Zhao Lanxiang took the little girl's hand and carefully descended the mountain.
Sanya held Sister Zhao's warm hand and whispered, "These people used to be fierce."
Zhao Lanxiang didn't speak, and dragged Sanya to continue walking down the mountain.
The four young men turned their heads and spoke in fluent Mandarin: "I didn't expect to see such a handsome woman in a valley. It's not easy."
Another said: "It should be an educated youth who went to the countryside. He talks and dresses very fashionably. How can he look like a local!"
Several people snorted and turned to other topics.
"Without the stubborn pressure of Gu Huaijin's thoughts, the project would have been delayed for so long, and we would have returned to Beijing long ago."
…
At noon, the sun is shining brightly.
Zhao Lanxiang went home and fry an egg fried rice in a hurry, stewed a soup with cool and detoxifying cauliflower, and hurried to the valley.
She gave Sister He a lunch box and pushed her again.
"Second brother He didn't eat either. Big sister went to give him one."
Sister He smiled and wiped her sweat, shook her head, "I'm not done yet."
"You, go deliver."
Holding the lunch box, Zhao Lanxiang felt a little excited and a little withdrawn.
"What's so funny about that?"
Sister He frowned strangely, as if asking: What's the matter with you.
Zhao Lanxiang has a ghost in her own heart, and naturally she is a little nervous about everything. This is what the eldest sister asked her to send, and He Songbai can't blame her!
Zhao Lanxiang walked to the valley, and saw the slippery man taking off his shirt and using a shovel to lift the valley with his shirtless. She blushed and quickly retreated after showing her face.
He Songbai noticed the dark blue shadow on the sidelines, his temples jumped, he took off his hat and sneaked out when no one was paying attention.
He walked into the lush grove, and his beloved object held a lunch box and waved at him with a smile.
Zhao Lanxiang said, "Come and eat."
He Songbai hesitated.
Zhao Lanxiang said again: "Hurry up and go back to work after eating. Do you want to provoke others to come over?"
Only then did He Songbai follow him hesitantly.
It was the first time that the target gave him meals in a "big audience", which gave He Songbai a secret sense of pride. When his head was hot, he followed him, but as a result, a cool breeze blew from the small woods, and He Songbai felt cold all over, and was shocked to find that he was not wearing a shirt.
Like a shy yellow-flowered girl, he stopped.
Zhao Lanxiang looked at He Songbai with a smile.
The skin under his neck was really white, and the dark wheat-colored neck went all the way down until a clear black and white line appeared on the edge of his collarbone. Although it is a thin figure, I didn't expect to take off the clothes and still have muscles. The six-pack of abdominal muscles under the abdomen clearly floated, neatly piled up, hard and white, very cute.
It made Zhao Lanxiang, a woman who was "mature" from the inside to the outside, look hot all over.
Tsk, this is her lovely man.
Seeing He Songbai's slightly embarrassed face, Zhao Lanxiang coughed lightly, covered her eyes with her hands, and said fiercely, "It's okay, girls are not as shy as you are."
He Songbai took off his hat and felt that he was choked firmly. What embarrassed him was not that he had no clothes on, but that her fiery eyes were sticking to him as if they were burning, making him feel uncomfortable. This woman is not ashamed!
However, the hunger in his stomach conquered everything, and He Songbai quickly walked over to pick up the lunch box and ate the meal in big mouthfuls.
The author has something to say: Small Theater 1:
Gu Gong: Although you are a little stupid, you are sure to learn from me.
Brother Bai: This sentence... makes the apprentices and so on become a cloud of smoke.

Small Theater 2:
What kind of experience is it to have an active mother-in-law
Brother Bo: Probably the experience of putting meat in your mouth and seducing you to eat it every day.
Experience it yourself.
