Zhou Xiaoshan walked along the stream for a while and stepped on a stone bridge.

The stone bridge is about fifteen meters long. The piers are all made of stone. The distance between the piers is about one meter. The shape is ancient and simple. The bridge deck is paved with two stone slabs about 40 centimeters wide and more than one meter long.

I don’t know how many years ago this bridge was built. When I look at it, I feel like I am in a primitive and simple life.

The upper part of the bridge pier where the stream does not flow is covered with moss, and the stone slabs on the bridge have been polished smooth and spotless by people walking back and forth all year round.

The stream under the bridge is crystal clear, and you can clearly see the fish and every stone in the water. It is a beautiful picture of the clear stream and pastoral scenery.

After crossing the Stone Bridge, it was time to climb Yingpan Col. Zhou Xiaoshan looked forward and saw three tall women standing under a big tree not far from the bridge.

These three women are none other than He Xiangzhu, Chen Guizhi, and He Jiali.

Zhou Xiaoshan was startled: Why are these three women meeting here?

When Zhou Xiaoshan thought to himself, he did not stop, but instead quickened his pace and walked towards the three of them.

"Brother, why did it take you so long to come? Didn't you say that you should leave before dawn?" From far away, Lili waved his hands impatiently and shouted. It seems that Lili has been here for a long time.

In fact, these three women did not come here on an appointment.

When Chen Guizhi returned home from Zhou Xiaoshan's house, she felt that Zhou Xiaoshan was far away to work without any relatives to accompany him, so he went to the stream in front of the village before dawn and pretended to wash clothes, but in fact he was waiting for Ye Zaishan to leave the village.

, at the same time, her biggest purpose is to give the box of small underwear to Zhou Xiaoshan.

Not long after Chen Guizhi arrived at the stream, he saw He Xiangzhu coming out of the village. He turned around and looked at the village. Chen Guizhi knew Xiangzhu's state of mind, but did not tell her, so he and Xiangzhu started chatting and laughing.

.

Unexpectedly, just after Xiangzhu arrived, he saw Jiali coming out of the village. Chen Guizhi asked Jiali why he got up so early. Jiali was a man without a heart, so he replied that he was seeing Brother Xiaoshan off.

The three women started chatting like this, but they still hadn't seen Yezishan leave the village at dawn. The three women were afraid that the villagers would see them seeing Yezaishan off here, which would arouse people's unreasonable suspicion. In addition, Jiuli was also afraid of her parents' comments.

There was a lot of noise, so the three of them went to the foot of Yingpan Gang to wait for Zhou Xiaoshan to be sent off.

Zhou Xiaoshan walked up to the three of them and said with a smile: "Sister, Third Sister-in-law, Lili, why are you here?"

"Brother, Sister Xiangzhu and Third Sister-in-law heard that I am going to take you on a journey, so they will wait for you here with me." When Lili spoke, she stepped forward and hugged Zhou Xiaoshan's arm. The closeness made Xiangzhu and Chen Guizhi beside them jealous.

Smashed over.

"Really? Thank you sister and third sister-in-law." The wild boy knew in his heart that Xiangzhu and third sister-in-law wanted to send him a gift, which was more heartfelt than that of Lili, but he pretended to be haha ​​on the surface.

"Be careful when you get outside." Xiangzhu stepped forward and straightened the cuffs of Zhou Xiaoshan's clothes. In fact, Zhou Xiaoshan's cuffs were in tatters and wrinkled no matter how much they were trimmed. However, Xiangzhu wanted to show his worry and concern.

Chen Guizhi couldn't bear to be left in the cold, stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Xiaoshan's hand, and stuffed two hundred yuan into Zhou Xiaoshan's hand: "Yezishan, it's better to go out than at home, bring a few more yuan in case you can't find it."

While working, I starve."

"Sister-in-law, no need." Zhou Xiaoshan hurriedly pushed the money back into Chen Guizhi's hand.

"Don't shirk it. I know you have just enough money to buy the train ticket. Why don't you eat or drink during the trip?" Chen Guizhi pushed the money back again, her face full of worry.

When Chen Guizhi saw Xiangzhu and Jiali present, she put the small box of clothes among the pile of clothes by the stream and did not dare to take it out, so she could only give money.

Xiangzhu also advised: "Xiaoshan, Sister Guizhi is right. If you don't eat or drink all the way, how can you be hungry? Maybe you will faint from hunger before you get there, so Sister Guizhi will give you

You want the money."
