Chapter 87 April Fool's Day in the countryside
It was Saturday, so the hairy child naturally came to report early, and Liu Junhao asked the computer to pull out the weeds in the vegetable field by himself.
In just a few days, the grass in the field has grown a thick layer. Especially the seeds, one plant can grab a large handful. People pull out the rafts and bring out the mud, but the ground is good, and even the grass can bring out half a pound of soil.
It seems that the use of this spring water is also two-sided. While nourishing vegetables, it also gives weeds a lot of nutrients. However, this grass is not completely useless. It is just right to throw it into the rabbit cage for those hares to eat.
"Uncle Xiaohao" he was busy, but the hairy child came into the backyard.
"What's the matter? Why don't you go online?" Liu Junhao asked with his head raised.
"Do you know what festival it is today?"
"What festival? In a few days, it's Qingming Festival, what's wrong?" The child's eyes kept rolling around, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Well, it's Qingming Festival, I thought you didn't know." The hairy child said with a smile, "It's nothing, I'm going back to surf the Internet."
He had just taken two steps and suddenly turned around and said, "I almost forgot. When I came over, Teacher Zhang said she had something to come to you and was waiting on the river bank."
"Zhang Qian comes to me if she has something to do, so she won't come here directly. You naughty kid won't be shaking me, right?"
"I'm so dizzy, how dare I shake you? If you don't believe me, go and see. Teacher Zhang must be waiting for you there." The hairy child said with his little face tilted.
"Then why didn't you say it earlier?" Liu Junhao quickly washed his hands in the ditch and rushed to the river beach. He didn't know what Zhang Qian had to do with him and insisted on going to the river beach to talk.
Could it be a date? Liu Junhao was happy when he thought of this. Since Zhang Qian helped him wash clothes last time, the two of them have become much closer. He is naturally a little excited about this change, but he is also a little afraid that he is self-indulgent.
Now Zhang Qian has made an appointment... It seems that it is better for men to take the initiative in this kind of thing.
Liu Junhao felt confused all the way, and he was worried about gains and losses. But when he arrived on the river bank, he found that there was nothing there.
That naughty child wouldn't really shake his own place. Although Liu Junhao felt that there was a great possibility, he didn't dare to walk away immediately. He had a faint hope in his heart that Zhang Qian would come over after she was finally here.
I waited for half an hour in a row. Just when he thought there was no hope, he saw someone walking far away on the road. Who would it be if it were Zhang Qian?
It turned out that she had really made an appointment with her, and Liu Junhao suddenly became a little excited.
"What are you doing in such a hurry to find me? If you have something to say, you can't do it. You have to ask Liu Changlin to pass the message?" Zhang Qian asked with a stern face from afar before she got closer.
"Didn't you ask the Mao kid to come here?" Liu Junhao became confused. Zhang Qian didn't look like she was telling lies.
"Is Liu Changlin asking you to wait for me here?" Zhang Qian was also stunned, and then burst into laughter, "This child really deserves a beating. I will punish him to copy the text ten times on Monday."
"What's going on?" He still couldn't figure it out.
"What day is today?" Zhang Qian asked with a smile.
"What's wrong on April 1st?" Liu Junhao was puzzled.
"Today is April Fool's Day, we were both fooled by Liu Changlin." Zhang Qian remembers this festival clearly. When she was in school, she would be nervous all day long, and she would be wary of being tricked.
"Aprils' Day, this naughty kid... I won't let him go online no matter what he says next time. I have learned a lot of bad things recently." Liu Junhao is not unaware of April Fools' Day, but there are countless festivals in rural China. Who would have been idle and found a foreigner's holiday to celebrate? Although he listened to people talking about April Fools' Day these days, he always felt that he was far away from himself.
But I didn't expect that this morning, the hairy child immediately took it out and sold it on April Fool's Day.
He didn't say that he lied to Liu Junhao, but he dared to deceive his teacher.
"Oh, it's okay, I'll go back first." Zhang Qian said, turning around and leaving.
"No, just play for a while when you come. You don't have to go to class on Sunday." Liu Junhao shouted quickly, but after he finished speaking, he felt a little embarrassed.
Zhang Qian also stopped there, looked down at the grass, and did not say he wanted to leave, nor did she say he would not leave.
Both of them felt that the atmosphere was quite awkward, but they couldn't find a suitable word for a while. Liu Junhao secretly annoyed that he was stupid. He usually spoke smoothly, but why did he lose his links when it was critical?
"You speak? Let me stay and say nothing." Zhang Qian was immediately angry as she stood there like a wooden stake.
"Well, um," Liu Junhao responded quickly and said, "Let's go and take a walk on the river beach. The wind is strong on the embankment." After saying that, he almost slapped his mouth twice, saying what he said, where did the wind come from?
Who knew that Zhang Qian didn't seem to hear anything wrong, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
There is a unique scenery on the river beach in April. The endless reed marsh has turned into a green yellow color, and the new reed buds have been stretched up with great energy.
Along the way, many birds were alarmed, wild ducks, green stakes, quails, sparrows, etc., constantly sending out all kinds of ancient
, flapping their wings and flying over their heads, then landing in the distance
In addition to being a little embarrassed at the beginning, the two of them are slowly relaxing now. After all, they were all acquaintances before, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
"Sit here for a rest," Zhang Qian said, pointing to the soft grass by the river.
"Wait, here is very tide, I'll make a straw mat for you." Liu Junhao said, looking for a few handfuls of fine hair grass and began to weave it quickly in his hands.
This thin hair grass is a common type of weed by the river. It grows very thin, similar to hair, but it is very strong. After drying, it is very flexible and can be pulled together. It used to be used to weave ropes and straw sandals in the countryside, but few people have cut this thing over the years.
Liu Junhao found that all the dead grass from last year. After a winter of wind and sun, it had already been dried. It felt very smooth when touched and it was very easy to weave.
"Your hands are very clever, teach me too, I want to make them too." Unexpectedly, when Zhang Qian saw him making such a beautiful straw mat, she immediately became interested.
Liu Junhao had no choice but to slow down and teach Zhang Qian to weave straw mats step by step.
"It's so warm, I'll sit for you this ugly one." Zhang Qian smiled and handed the wrinkled meadow he woven to Liu Junhao.
The two of them sat by the river and chatted at the gentle river water, talking about trivial things, but there was an indescribable smell in each other's hearts.
When Liu Junhao returned home, he wanted her to sit in his yard. However, Zhang Qian heard the sound of children fighting in the yard and couldn't say it, so she left directly.
"Uncle Xiaohao is back!" Some naughty child suddenly screamed with sharp eyes, and the hairy child got up from the chair and hid from him from a distance.
"What are you doing to hide from me? Come and sit down." Liu Junhao looked a little funny.
"I don't, you will definitely beat me up if I go over." The Mao kid shook his head and didn't get close to Liu Junhao no matter what he said.
"You naughty kid, not only won't beat you up, but you will also thank you later. When you leave, you will get two duck eggs for you and let your mother cook for you." To be honest, Liu Junhao felt that he really wanted to thank this naughty kid who likes to make trouble. If it weren't for him, the two of them wouldn't have made such rapid progress.
"You are not lying to me, today is April Fool's Day." The hairy child saw Liu Junhao coming to the house and walked out with seven or eight green duck eggs. He felt that what he said didn't seem to be fake, so he carefully approached a few steps.
"I'll keep my word, it's okay." Liu Junhao was both angry and funny, pointing to the naughty children watching the fun in the yard and said, "You have a share, one person, and two furry children."
"Thank you, Uncle Xiaohao" these children immediately started to snatch them up.
The first thing Zhang Qian did when she went home was to hide in the house and secretly call her best friend Su Nana, briefly describe what she was doing, and then ask her what to do?
At first, Su Nana didn't believe it, saying that it was April Fool's Day and she would never believe her nonsense.
It was not until Zhang Qian explained repeatedly that she completely believed it, and then exclaimed: "Okay, the fourth brother, I thought you two had a leg at the beginning, and you still denied it. Now the fox's tail is finally exposed, right?"
"What do you think of him as a person?" Zhang Qian hurriedly interrupted her, afraid that Su Nana would gossip without any obstacles.
"I'm not familiar with him, so I know that his food is delicious. You can't like him because of this reason. Tell me what you like?"
"What are you saying, how could you..." Although Zhang Qian denied, she didn't understand what she liked him. Could it be that it was because people often matched them, or because he sacrificed himself for himself when he was on the street?
"I don't know what I like him," in the end she could only say this to the microphone.
"Damn, you're out of help.
"Sunana was also very depressed when she heard it there. She was just joking about Zhang Qian and Liu Junhao, but she didn't expect that this matter would actually happen.
She became a matchmaker for no reason. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Zhang Qian was a little lacking in consideration, so she said seriously: "I said to Lao Si, you have to think about it thoroughly."
"Yeah, I know"
Zhang Qian hung up the phone and didn't even want to eat the food.
To be honest, no girl has a romantic dream in her heart, but she also knows that reality is reality, and many things are not transferred by people's will.
But she still admired a passage she saw in the book before, "I read a book, my wife is with me, she can do anything... I hope love is a matter of one person, my business, from the other party's perspective, her business, but it must be the affairs of both of us. I mean less emotional entanglement."
She always thought she was a simple person, and perhaps this kind of ordinary love was more suitable for her.
I wish you a happy uni day and continue to ask for monthly tickets.
