"The river flows eastward, and the stars in the sky are in the Big Dipper!"
"Lu Jian Bu Ping roars..." Shen Changan hummed along with the player in the car. He seemed to be in a good mood, but the tune was a little out of place in his mouth.
Water mist filled the mountain village road, and occasionally wild birds swept past, making the whole road look desolate. Listening to Shen Changan's out-of-tune singing, Ding Yang took out his mobile phone and glanced at it. It had been less than half an hour since he and Shen Changan exchanged the driver's seat, but he always felt that they had been driving on this road for several hours. .
Touching the photo of the great man on his body, he felt more at ease. Fortunately, he put a plastic seal on the photo, so he was not afraid of rain.
The car turned a corner, and Ding Yang saw a drenched man beckoning to them not far away, as if he wanted them to take a ride. In the wilderness, the rain is so heavy outside, and it is very dangerous to walk alone. Ding Yang hurriedly said: "Chang'an, there is a person in front who wants to take a ride, we will take him for a ride."
"Where?" Shen Changan braked, and the water in the mud puddle splashed several meters away under the pressure of the wheels.
Seeing that the beckoning man was sprayed with muddy water from head to toe, Ding Yang's lips trembled, so don't take it.
"Brother Yang, where are the people?" Shen Changan looked around, but saw no one. After turning off the player, he looked at Ding Yang suspiciously, "Did you read it wrong?"
Ding Yang blinked, and then looked carefully at the man on the side of the road. It turned out that this was not a man, but a tree stump. It was unknown that the boring man was wearing a worn-out clothes, and he looked like a man reaching out from a distance.
"It's raining too much, it's dazzling." Ding Yang smiled embarrassedly, feeling a little uneasy, "Let's go quickly, Sister Juan and the others are still waiting for us to go back."
Shen Changan glanced at his watch, "There are still more than two hours, and there is still time."
The van continued to start, probably because Shen Changan's attitude had influenced Ding Yang. Most of his inexplicable fear had disappeared. In order not to make the atmosphere in the car awkward, he started chatting with Shen Changan.
Fortunately, the other party is not a taciturn person. The atmosphere of the two chatting is very harmonious. After talking about it, Ding Yang looks at the heavy rain outside the car window and worries: "It's a good time to harvest rice recently. It will affect the harvest of fellow villagers.”
"The rain in summer has always come quickly, and the weather will clear quickly, so don't worry." Shen Changan glanced at Ding Yang, this colleague looked young, but he had a good heart.
"That's good." Ding Yang smiled, "My hometown is in the countryside. When I was a child, I saw a lot of rushing to harvest rice in summer, so now I am worried about bad weather. Chang'an, you are from a big city. You don't know much about those things in the countryside, do you?"
This new colleague is white and tender, and he doesn't look like a skin boy who grew up in the village.
"I spent two years in the countryside when I was young, so I don't know anything about it." Shen Changan smiled, "Before I came to work here, I heard from a friend that there are a lot of delicious food here. Is that the case in Wuming City?"
Hearing the words "our Wuming City", Ding Yang felt a little more close to Shen Chang'an, and immediately said: "That's not it, when we talk about the food here, we always take the provincial capital as an example. There are also many delicacies in other cities in our province, but they are not famous."
"It would be a pity if we couldn't catch up with tonight's dinner with such a heavy rain." After listening to Ding Yang's introduction of several delicacies, Shen Changan stepped on the accelerator, and the speed of the car sped up a bit.
No one can stop him from pursuing delicious food!
"Rain... It seems to be getting smaller?" Not long after the van increased its speed, Ding Yang found that the rain outside suddenly became smaller, and even the water mist that affected his sight was much thinner.
"Looks like we can go back in time to change clothes and have dinner together." Shen Changan was in a good mood. When he laughed, his eyes were slightly curved, like a beautiful crescent moon.
After the car drove off the mountain village road, the mobile phone, which had no signal, finally recovered its communication function. Before the car entered the main road, Ding Yang's mobile phone rang.
As soon as the answer button was pressed, Gao Shujuan's sharp voice came out of the microphone, without the need for the public amplifier function.
"Xiao Ding, where are you and Xiao Shen? Why can't the phone get through?"
"Sister Juan, I..."
"I heard that there was a landslide in the Corn Village, and someone else had an accident. You two should come back first, and then go back when the weather is good!"
"I… "
"Xiao Shen's child just came to work, and he is very gentle. As a senior, you must take good care of him."
When the gentle Shen Changan heard this, he tilted his head and smiled at Ding Yang, his appearance was indeed gentle and well-behaved. Ding Yang listened to Gao Shujuan's talk silently. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Shen Changan with mixed feelings. If he went back and told his colleague that this gentle new colleague was a man who drove the van beyond the speed of the plane, who would believe him?
Ding Yang touched his face, a gentle and tender-looking person is really taking advantage.
Shen Changan drove the car back to where he lived, and lent Ding Yang a set of clothes he had not worn. Ding Yang was a little embarrassed, and even said that he would wash up and come back when he went back.
"Brother Yang, you're too kind." Shen Changan handed the brewed ginger tea to Ding Yang, "I live nearby, so it's more convenient to come to my house."
Ding Yang was still a little embarrassed. He glanced at the house where Shen Changan lived. It looked like a model house. Maybe it was because he just moved in, so there was no fireworks. The housing prices here in Wuming City are not high. Most families like to buy a three-bedroom apartment with a floor space of more than 90 square meters. For example, Shen Changan lives in a two-bedroom apartment with a floor area of about 70 square meters, which is not mainstream on their side.
He didn't ask if the house was bought or rented, he took a sip from the teacup, "There's still an hour before the dinner party. Shall we sit for a while?"
"Yeah." Shen Changan turned on the TV, the broadband was not connected at home, the TV only received a few local TV stations, and there were still snowflakes floating on the screen.
Ding Yang glanced at the TV and couldn't help sitting up straight. He pointed at the TV with shaking hands: "Chang'an, watch the news now."
An emergency news is being broadcast on the city TV station, saying that the road leading to Maize Village collapsed, and a car was involved in an accident, and the driver died after being rescued.
"Fortunately, we came back in time." Shen Changan glanced at the TV and said happily, "Otherwise, we might be stuck in the middle of the road."
"The collapsed road is where we passed." Ding Yang is a local and is very familiar with the nearby routes, so he recognized the collapsed road on the TV at a glance. They just passed by here not long ago, "When we came back just now , I don't seem to see a collapse anywhere?"
Shen Changan looked at Ding Yang with a complicated expression: "Brother Yang, do you still want to encounter such a thing?"
"No, don't you think it's strange?" Ding Yang said, "When we came back, we didn't encounter other vehicles, but there is an ambulance on this video, is there something wrong?"
"Brother Yang, our job is to promote science, not strange events." Shen Changan calmly patted him on the shoulder, "Maybe the ambulance is in the nearby village, but just happened to encounter this car accident, we are on our way back. It’s normal not to meet. The collapse should happen after we leave. Don’t scare yourself, it’s just an accident.”
The force of the tap on the shoulder was very light, but Ding Yang calmed down. He thought about it carefully, what Chang An said made sense, he was sitting here safely, why should he scare himself
After drinking a full cup of ginger tea, Ding Yang felt a little bloated and ran to the toilet to run water.
"At 3:8 in the afternoon, after receiving the call, our hospital rushed to the scene of the accident. Unfortunately, the injured person died after the rescue failed..."
Shen Changan glanced at the TV screen, which listed the surname, age, and body characteristics of the deceased, asking the family of the deceased to claim the body of the deceased as soon as possible.
He picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. He turned to see Ding Yang coming out of the bathroom, and whispered, "The deceased was only in his thirties. The family waiting for him to go back, I don't know how sad it is."
Ding Yang sighed: "Life is like this, so you should cherish your family more and don't have any regrets."
Shen Changan bent the corner of his mouth: "Let's go, let's go to the place for dinner."
"Oh, good." Ding Yang nodded quickly, since he had been in Chang'an's flying car, he was less able to refuse Chang'an's various small suggestions.
The place where the dinner is held is not large, and the decoration is very ordinary. The advertising light box outside the store has accumulated a layer of gray, and the color printing has been discolored. It reads "22 yuan per customer", and the price is very cheap.
When Shen Changan and the others arrived, other colleagues had already sat down around the table. Seeing the two of them approaching, Chen Panpan waved to them, "Little Yoko, Shen Changan, this way."
"Chang'an, can you eat spicy food?" Du Zhonghai, who was sitting in the innermost position, wiped the slightly greasy tabletop with a paper. "Their cold pot fish and cold pot chicken are a must."
"I can't really eat spicy food, but it's okay." Shen Changan couldn't help but look at Du Zhonghai's forehead. The place that was bright before now has a wig, but the wig is separated from the center, allowing Du Zhonghai The director looked a little funny.
"Then, let's be slightly spicy, slightly spicy." Du Zhonghai patted his chubby belly and seemed to make a huge concession, inviting the boss, "Boss, make a slightly spicy pot today, and the fish fillets will be fresh. "
"Don't worry, it's definitely slaughtered alive." The boss glanced at Shen Changan and said with a smile, "Director Du, is this your new colleague?"
"Yes, this is Xiao Shen, a new colleague from our department." Du Zhonghai nodded with a smile.
"For the sake of my new colleagues, I'll give you a pumpkin pie." The boss nodded to Shen Changan and hurriedly entered the back kitchen, his back was majestic, like a general who was about to enter the battlefield.
"Hey, there are new guests coming today, and the boss will definitely show off all the unique skills at the bottom of the box again." Chen Panpan rubbed his hands together with anticipation on his face.
Shen Changan: "..."
So his colleagues brought him to the dinner so enthusiastically, just because they valued his newcomer status
"Don't be sad." Xu Ze comforted, "We can give you the swim bladder later."
Shen Changan: "..."
This comfort is not so useful.
However, when the cold pot fish was ready, Shen Changan still put the fish bladder into his bowl in front of everyone. Even though he was so hot that his tears were rolling, he tried his best to eat a lot.
As a new colleague who was "used", he must pay back.
When checking out, the boss asked Shen Changan with a smile: "lady, how does my fish taste?"
"It's delicious." Shen Changan was so hot that his tongue was about to lose consciousness.
"That must, my shop has been open for more than ten years." The boss was happy and wiped off a fraction of two yuan for them.
Du Zhonghai and Gao Shujuan lived close to each other and went home after dinner, leaving the four young people to continue on their way.
"It's so supportive." Chen Panpan rubbed his stomach, "In the future, when I get married, I must find a man with good cooking skills."
"So, do you have a boyfriend now?" Xu Ze asked blankly.
Chen Panpan: "..."
"Which little sister wants to get married, brothers can help, come and go with the brothers." Several drunken street gangsters came over, the huge gold chains around their necks gleaming under the street lights.
Xu Ze and Ding Yang hurriedly stood in front of Chen Panpan, frowning and looking at these gangsters with colorful hair, Ding Yang said, "Dude, this is on the street, please be polite."
"What's wrong on the street?" A thug in a floral shirt pushed Ding Yang, but Ding Yang didn't stand still and bumped into Shen Changan next to him.
With a click, the glasses on the bridge of Shen Changan's nose fell to the ground, and the lens shattered.
Touching the bridge of his empty nose, Shen Changan raised his head and looked at the gangsters: "No one told you that if you gather a crowd to forcefully molest women or insult women in public, you will be sentenced to more than five years in prison?"
"Hahaha, oops, we're so scared." The gangsters burst into laughter, and one person even stepped forward and puffed out his chest, "I'm just teasing, I'm teasing, you can hit me if you have the ability."
This kind of gentle man has always been a mouthful, and when he says he has to do it, he is more cowardly than anyone else.
