Spring Again

Chapter 8

As the setting sun slanted west, golden afterglows spread all over the earth, the evening breeze was blowing, and the rustling of leaves came from the bamboo forest.

The person above blocked the slanting sunset, and her whole body was coated with a soft halo. Her fingers were warm and her movements were light, making her whole person extraordinarily calm.

Ye Xiyan maintained the posture of propping up his upper body, motionless, as if frozen. She stared at Jiang Xu in a daze, and her mind was blank for a second or two. She seemed to be formatted. She didn’t know how to respond, let alone how to answer.

After a while, Jiang Xu put down his hands.

The area I just rubbed was red with too much force.

“It’s okay.” This person said, his tone was flat, as if he had just done something unusual and not worthy of attention.

Ye Xiyan only then gathered his free thoughts and returned to normal.

Maybe the weather was too dry, and Ye Xiyan felt a rush of heat in her heart. She raised her head slowly, her soft neck line stretched, and asked slowly: “Anything else?”

Jiang Xu said, “Just here is a little bit.”

The dirty mark on the chin is a small piece that was on the face when he wiped his face with his hand. Ye Xiyan couldn’t see her face and didn’t know if she was doing it cleanly. She subconsciously raised her hand to touch her chin, involuntarily.

Jiang Xu pressed her wrist, “Don’t touch it, there is oil in your hand.”

Only then did she come back to her senses, and found that she was so dirty that she was all stains on the underside of the car when she twisted the wrench to change the screws.

In the next moment, she turned her face off and rubbed her T-shirt casually.

Jiang Xu touched a piece of paper and handed it over, “Use this.”

She wanted to take it, but there was still no oil on her hands.

“No, just go up and wash later.”

Jiang Xu stuffed the paper into her hand, not listening to her.

Ye Xiyan didn’t refuse any more, and wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, as well as his neck and face. The temperature is too high, I have been outside for too long, and the back of my clothes are all wet and drooping on my skin.

“Thanks,” she said.

Jiang Xu didn’t answer.

After that, the two did not pull again.

Ye Xiyan slipped into the bottom of the car again, and the person handing the tools was replaced by Jiang Xu. They cooperated well, and they chatted while working, talking about some things they didn’t have.

Deliberate alienation is no longer indifferent, replaced by peace.

The Miao children still squatted around the car, curiously addicted, staring at them intently.

Tighten the last screw, Ye Xiyan asked absently, “Where did you all go this afternoon?”

Jiang Xu said, “I visited the tea garden and there are pine forests.”

There are many scenic spots in the vicinity of the stockade that can not only be seen but also promote the physical industry, tea gardens and pine forests are two of them. The former is the main economic pillar of the local economy. The tea culture of Dali Mountain has deep roots, and the tea-growing and tea-picking techniques have been passed down from generation to generation; the latter is a new project developed in recent years. Summer is an excellent period for rosin mining. A craft line was specially produced in Dali Mountain as a viewing point.

In the afternoon, everyone went to see this specifically, to understand the specific situation on the spot, and then make arrangements according to local conditions.

Ye Xiyan didn’t follow the team and didn’t know what it was like, so he asked, “Did you drink tea?”

“Drink,” Jiang Xu hum, “drank the spring tea I left this year.”

“Are there for sale?”

“You can buy it in town.”

Ye Xiyan doesn’t like to drink tea, but he can still hear some changes in spring tea.

Spring tea is the best, sweet and sweet. Ye’s father likes this very much. Every year he asks someone to bring a batch of good spring tea from China. It just so happened that this trip came to Dahang Mountain, you can carry a few bags with you.

She got out from the bottom of the car and put all the car repair tools back in the box.

A boy named Shi San ran away and came back soon with a bowl of cold water.

The other lads followed suit and hurriedly drilled into the stilted building, scrambling to go back to wash their hands. These children are quite sensible, and they have just got along with Ye Xiyan in one afternoon and treat her as a big friend.

Ye Xiyan wanted to drink water, but his hands were dirty and couldn’t take the bowl, so he could only squat down and take two sips.

Jiang Xu watched from the side and saw that Shi San was fed anxiously, and he sprinkled water on Ye Xiyan’s clothes. After hesitating for a while, he stepped forward, took the large porcelain bowl, and gently said to Shi San, “Let me come. .”

Then he pulled Ye Xiyan, “Standing to drink, squatting is no effort.”

Ye Xiyan stood up and was fed a few mouthfuls to quench his thirst.

The height of the two of them is not much different, and they are not struggling to stand together.

Jiang Xu drooped his eyelids, and inadvertently glanced at the person’s sweaty neck and collarbone, and further down, the undulating white gully was also wet, I don’t know if it was sweat or water.

It should be water, not so much sweat.

The T-shirt Ye Xiyan wore today was light gray, with a large neckline, showing the collarbone and large areas of skin. Standing far away, it didn’t matter. Standing too close could give a glimpse of the scenery inside.

Because she lay on the ground for too long, her hair was about to fall apart. A few strands of black silk clung to her neck and chest in a mess, and one or two strands fell into the neckline of the T-shirt along the curve and stepped softly. The ground extends downward.

This person has a big heart, and he doesn’t feel anything wrong at all, and his mind is in a bowl of water.

Jiang Xu pursed his lips and looked up.

Ye Xiyan slid his throat up and down, swallowing in small mouths.

A big bowl of water hit the bottom, and in the end only a little remained.

Jiang Xu put the bowl aside, took another piece of paper and handed it over.

The little cubs came out together carrying the basin for washing hands, and a little girl was still holding a piece of light yellow soap in her hand.

Ye Xiyan hurried to collect the water basin and squatted on the ground to wash his hands.

When she finished washing, several children swarmed here and played with soap with the remaining water. The scene was once “out of control”, and the management couldn’t control it.

The sun slanted very quickly at dusk, and it didn’t take a long time to go under the mountain. Half of the sky became golden. Not far away, homing birds flew low and hovered over the stilted buildings.

Ye Xiyan was squeezed out of the child and pushed back two or three steps, accidentally hitting Jiang Xu behind him.

Fearing that she would fall, Jiang Xu held her back, but he didn’t intend to put his arms around her waist.

It was a meal for both sides.

Ye Xiyan’s hands were still wet. She didn’t want to get water on Jiang Xu’s clothes, so she could only raise her arms a little at this moment.

By coincidence, he also moved closer to the other side’s arms.

Jiang Xu didn’t let go.

Ye Xiyan turned his head to look, but his ears were suddenly hot and humid, and he almost touched the other party’s lips.

Then, the two retreated half a step in the same place, and immediately separated.

Ye Xiyan’s ear tips were red, as if they had been burned. She didn’t dare to look at Uejiang Xu’s eyes, just pretending that she didn’t understand it at all, as if she touched a sharp foreign shellfish suddenly, all at once she retracted into the shell, and hid herself strictly.

Jiang Xu was still so calm, the expression on his face didn’t fluctuate much.

The atmosphere changed abruptly, and the air was about to freeze, and they were deadlocked.

In the end, Ye Xiyan broke the silence and said stiffly: “They will be back later, and they will go out to eat later. I will clean up first.”

Jiang Xu only responded.

The two went upstairs one after another.

Luo Ruqi and the others came back with a big bag of fruits when it was getting dark, and they distributed fruits to everyone next to the room as soon as they went upstairs.

There is an orchard near the stockade where longan and grapes are planted. July and August are the time to go on the market. All the bags are given to them by the owner, so you can eat whatever you want, and then pick them if you don’t have enough.

Everyone divided the fruits downstairs, and Ye Xiyan took a shower upstairs with the door closed. It took nearly forty minutes for the washing to be over.

There is a small mirror on the wall of the bathroom. After the shower, she leaned down and took a look. She stretched out her hand uncontrollably to touch her chin and touched the one that Jiang Xu had rubbed. piece.

This behavior was so strange that she was stunned the moment she touched herself.

Obviously nothing happened, but somehow, Ye Xiyan’s mind was a little confused, he couldn’t find the point, couldn’t understand his thoughts, what was going on right now.

She was thinking back to the earlier scene tonight, thinking that Jiang Xu squatted down beside the car while she was lying under the car for repairs. At that time, her vision was limited. She couldn’t see the person’s face, but could see the other person’s white arms drooping to one side, as well as the slim waist and long legs wrapped in clothing.

In fact, Ye Xiyan had already overhauled the car at that time, and it only took a long time to screw the screws. However, when Jiang Xu came, she slowed down and didn’t care about everything.

There was a narrow space under the car, and she didn’t spend a long time in it, but it was extremely long.

She thought carefully, but she didn’t know the reason.

Facing the mirror, Ye Xiyan put on simple underwear, wiped the drops of water on the mirror indiscriminately, and continued to wear the remaining underwear.

Dinner is only eaten at 8:30, and the dishes are not as rich as at noon.

Ye Xiyan was full without eating two bites, and then sat at the table listening to everyone chatting.

She sits opposite Jiang Xu, and helps everyone to pour water or pass soup spoons when she has time. It was almost done, she took the initiative to serve soup to everyone, and first put a bowl in front of Jiang Xu.

No one noticed the awkwardness of these behaviors, only Jiang Xu raised his eyelids and gave her a little when he took the soup bowl.

Shao Yunfeng and the others are discussing the plans for the next few days and assigning tasks one by one.

Two live broadcasts will be held tomorrow afternoon and the day after tomorrow to introduce the characteristics and traditional customs of Dali Mountain, including food culture and so on. The day after tomorrow, a group of people will form a group to go to the town, and take pictures there to collect materials.

The general arrangement is like this, it is not complicated, and the time is not arranged too tightly. After all, it is a self-driving tour public welfare activity. In addition to public welfare, the focus of the activity also includes play and hands-on experience, so you must leave some free time for everyone to move freely.

Someone suggested to have a barbecue tomorrow night in the small courtyard downstairs. At that time, you can invite the guide and the village chief to participate.

Luo Ruqi echoed: “Okay, I agree, I finally came here, and I won’t wait long to leave. The mountains are clear and the water is clear, so suitable for barbecue!”

The travel blogger nodded and smiled: “I can write another manuscript, it should be very interesting.”

The two male drivers were also very supportive. They were not used to the food in the stockade and wished they could eat something else. Drinking is the best thing.

So many people have expressed their opinions, and the rest can’t be disappointed. Tomorrow night’s barbecue party is set.

But the ingredients needed for barbecue have to be bought by someone to go to town.

Tomorrow, Ye Xiyan and the two doctors will be free during the day. Others are either busy writing manuscripts and live broadcasts, or have to do other work.

If Ye Xiyan wants to drive, she must go there. As for Jiang Xu and Luo Ruqi, only one of them will do.

Shao Yunfeng asked the guide. It’s quite a long way from the stockade to the town, and tomorrow is the day of “rushing to the side field”. There will be more people in the town. It is not convenient to drive a jeep, so it is convenient to ride a motorcycle.

The guide has a black motorcycle which can be loaned to Ye Xiyan to drive.

Luo Ruqi was not too tired, and said while eating vegetables: “Then I will go with Xian Yan. I’m small and don’t occupy a lot of space. Otherwise, I won’t be able to put a lot of things down by then.”

Shao Yunfeng nodded, “Also, pay attention to safety.”

There is no objection.

Ye Xiyan quietly peeled the longan, slashed the yellowish-brown skin, and squeezed out the tender and plump flesh inside, one by one into his mouth.

She ate too much, and the juice touched her hand, and her round fingers were wet.

The opposite Jiang Xu said nothing, and gently picked up the bowl and took a sip of the hot soup.

The next day will be sunny and the temperature will be two or three degrees higher.

The wind in the morning is no longer cool, mixed with heat, with a sticky feeling.

Ye Xiyan got up early and got up after seven o’clock.

Just after Jiang Xu finished cleaning, he opened the window of the room and saw this person in the courtyard downstairs, playing with the Miao children yesterday, holding a little girl in a floral dress in his arms.

The children kept going crazy, all running around in the yard, grinning, and slapped Ye Xiyan from time to time, shouting “Sister Ye” in their mouths.

Jiang Xuli looked behind the window for a few minutes.

Xu Shi sensed the line of sight from upstairs, and Ye Xiyan turned around and raised his head to meet her gaze.

Jiang Xu didn’t hide, and didn’t panic at all.

The two of them looked at each other across three floors and didn’t take the initiative to each other.

Shi San followed Ye Xiyan’s gaze and found Jiang Xu upstairs. The children already knew Jiang Xu, immediately grinned, waved upstairs, and shouted in unison: “Hello, Doctor Jiang—”

Jiang Xu’s eyebrows softened by two points.

There were other travelers in the Diaojiaolou, some of them went out with their bags on foot to see the scenery on foot.

At eight one, the people in the convoy went out one after another.

Everyone has things to do during the day, so they have their own meals for breakfast, or just take care of a meal of bread, or find a place to eat by themselves. Ye Xiyan stayed in the Diaojiaolou to eat, as did Jiang Xu and Luo Ruqi, and the three of them gathered together.

After breakfast, Ye Xiyan and Luo Ruqi are going to the town to buy food.

Only halfway through the meal, Luo Ruqi suddenly couldn’t say to go to town, and let Jiang Xu go instead.

Ye Xi was puzzled, thinking something was wrong. Last night, Luo Ruqi himself proposed to go to town, and he was very excited at that time.

Luo Ruqi embarrassedly explained that he was going to help travel bloggers to take pictures. Ye Xiyan should have been notified last night, but it was late at that time, and he was not on the same floor, so he had to inform Jiang Xu first, and wait until now to tell Ye Xiyan.

Anyway, to help out with grocery shopping, it is not necessary for Luo Ruqi to go, or for Jiang Xu to go.

Luo Ruqi apologized: “I was afraid that it would disturb your rest yesterday, so I’m only talking about it now. I said you don’t mention it.”

Ye Xiyan said: “It’s okay, as long as there is someone.”

Luo Ruqi raised the corner of his mouth and said cheerfully: “Professor Jiang is more reliable than me.”

The town is about ten kilometers away from the stockade, but the road is relatively bumpy. There are almost no flat roads except for climbing.

The road in the village is not as wide as the city, and the quality standard is not high. It is a one-way street and can almost only accommodate a small car. If two cars meet head-on, one car must take the initiative to retreat half a body of the road. , Otherwise no one can make it through.

Before setting off, Ye Xiyan gave Jiang Xu his only helmet and also helped him put it on.

Jiang Xu did not refuse, not knowing whether he trusted the man’s driving skills or was not worried at all.

Ye Xiyan rode on the bike as soon as he straddled his legs, and he could easily touch the ground with both legs.

As a professional racer, she has excellent physical fitness and proportions. Long legs are a must. Short legs are not good enough. Of course, it’s not good to be too long or too tall, she’s pretty good this way, and the appearance conditions are perfect enough.

Considering that someone would be sitting behind, Ye Xiyan deliberately pulled out his hair and dressed neatly.

After Ye Xiyan stabilized the car, Jiang Xu sat in again. She didn’t get too close. She moved a little behind to make the distance that should be enough so that she wouldn’t stick to the back of the person in front.

Ye Xiyan was not surprised for her deliberate avoidance of suspicion, and she let it all. She made sure she was seated and started the car. Before driving out, she reminded him softly: “Don’t lean back, be careful.”

Jiang Xu said, “I know.”

The motorcycle drove a long way in less than two minutes, turning a few big and small bends, and quickly left the village behind in the mountains.

The guide told Ye Xiyan to keep driving along this road and not to fork the road. When the next crowded place is the town, you can just drive straight ahead, and you don’t need to ask for directions.

Ye Xiyan kept the guide’s instructions in mind, driving slowly when passing by a place where someone lived, and driving at a constant speed only on the mountain section.

The **** of the road in the mountains is too large, and there is a big **** every one section.

Xu is accustomed to driving a car. She rides fast and rushes through the ground without hesitation uphill and downhill, and a sense of weightlessness follows. She didn’t feel it, but Jiang Xu at the back was uncomfortable. The leather of the seat was too slippery. Every time he stepped down the slope, Jiang Xu would inevitably fall forward, and the distance he had originally separated would also decrease. Until nothing.

Someone thinks that the drive is quite smooth and not fast.

Jiang Xu from the back pressed his mouth tightly, and had to stick to her back, and had to hold this woman in the second half of the road.

At the moment when he was wrapped around his waist, Ye Xiyan instantly stiffened his back, and his whole body seemed to be scalded by the red iron.

Jiang Xu tightened his forearm and was forced to lean on her back.

“Ye Xiyan, drive slowly.”

Being too close, the warm breath that he exhaled when speaking all fell on the back of Ye Xiyan’s neck, slightly numb, like a crow feather flicking past.

Ye Xiyan squeezed the motorcycle handle, unconsciously, secretly exerting force until the knuckles turned white. But she didn’t show it on her face, and her tone was normal. She only said in a low voice, “Okay.”

After that, slow down again.

The speed here is about the same, and it’s just right whether it’s fast or slow.

However, as the car was still driving, Jiang Xu in the rear could not move, and the two of them maintained their current posture for the rest of the road.

The touch on the back is too obvious, even if Jiang Xu intends to control it, he will still get up and can’t stay away.

Ye Xiyan just assumed that he didn’t feel it, and leaned forward sneakily.

However, the instinctive reaction of the body couldn’t hide, her ears were hot, and she was dyed crimson before she knew it.

Jiang Xu can see clearly from behind, and he can see all the changes of this person.
