Li Xiaoxiao seemed to be very interested in skating and quickly mastered the essence of skating. Later, he and Fang Zhiqiang chased each other on the ice. This scene seemed extremely harmonious.

After a long time, both of them felt a little tired, and Fang Zhiqiang looked again at a small pavilion not far from the ice.

Wujiang is a place where the temperature is low all year round. Especially in winter, the ice on the lake will not melt at all, so a small pavilion was built in the center of the lake. When the lake does not freeze in summer, a small pavilion is used.

The bridge serves as a passage, but in winter, the bridge is no longer in use, and people can come directly to the pavilion from the ice.

"Xiaoxiao, let's go over and rest for a while?"

Fang Zhiqiang pulled Li Xiaoxiao and slowly slid towards the small pavilion.

Ever since he mastered the skating skills, Li Xiaoxiao was too lazy to take another step on the ice, and was skating more and more happily at this moment.

When they arrived at the small pavilion, the two people sat down slowly. The small pavilion was not big, and the seats on one side could only accommodate two people. It happened that there were not many people here at this time, so Fang Zhiqiang and Li Xiaoxiao sat on each side.

Looking at each other's eyes.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Li Xiaoxiao asked Fang Zhiqiang a little unnaturally.

"It's just the two of us here. If I don't look at you, who do you want me to look at?"

Fang Zhiqiang looked around with an innocent face, then looked at Li Xiaoxiao again, and said helplessly.

"Oh..." Li Xiaoxiao also felt that there were some problems with this question, and then lowered his head and smiled.

"Xiaoxiao, do you know what this place was used for before?"

Fang Zhiqiang looked at the shores around the lake and suddenly said.

"What is it for?"

Li Xiaoxiao raised his head again and looked at Fang Zhiqiang curiously.

"In the past, this place was very poor. People who wanted to buy new year's goods had to go to the town. But there were no cars at that time, and many people couldn't afford bicycles, so there was this ferry, and some people specialized in boating here.

, to help those who want to go to town."

Fang Zhiqiang continued.

After listening to this, Li Xiaoxiao couldn't help but turn his head and look at the shore. Nowadays, the development is very good. The boats used to carry people have long disappeared without a trace. Today's boats are used for tourists to have fun.

used.

But now that the lake is frozen, of course the boat cannot be used.

"Qiangzi, how come you know everything?"

After Li Xiaoxiao looked at it for a while, he looked at Fang Zhiqiang again and said with admiration.

"You silly girl, don't you need to read some information before going to a place?

Even though I just sharpened my skills in battle last night, I’m still much better than you, a stupid girl who doesn’t know anything!”

Fang Zhiqiang deliberately rolled his eyes at Li Xiaoxiao and said proudly.

"You..." Li Xiaoxiao was speechless. After being stunned for a long time, a happy smile appeared on his face again.

When she went out to play with Fang Zhiqiang, she really didn't have to worry about anything. Fang Zhiqiang had already taken care of everything she could think of.

"At that time, this ferry was very busy, with many people taking boats almost every day. Over time, this place became the most important transportation place in the entire Wujiang River. Later, with the development of the times, cars replaced boats, and people no longer needed

This ferry is a heritage that has been passed down for hundreds of years, and people are reluctant to give it up, so it is still preserved today. Of course, it is only used for viewing and experience."

Fang Zhiqiang took a long breath as he spoke.

Thinking of the development of various regions in recent years, Fang Zhiqiang also felt a little stunned.

When I was just born in the 1990s, I already admired anyone riding a bicycle. But in these short twenty or thirty years, sometimes when I think about it carefully, I really feel

Incredible.

Sometimes Fang Zhiqiang subconsciously imagines that if he goes to jail, how will the world change after he comes out of prison in ten years from when he first went to jail?

Can you still recognize this city?

Can you find a path you took back then?

"Hey... this ferry must be an unforgettable place for the local people. They must have beautiful memories of this ferry in their childhood."

Fang Zhiqiang suddenly felt emotional. Thinking back to his hometown, Fang Zhiqiang couldn't help but think of the memories of his childhood. At that time, he didn't understand anything and thought that the world was all like his hometown. But then he came to Mingzhu.

, Fang Zhiqiang discovered that he was just a frog in the well at that time.

"Qiangzi, are you homesick?"

Li Xiaoxiao heard the emotion in Fang Zhiqiang's words, and then suddenly asked.

Hearing Li Xiaoxiao's words, Fang Zhiqiang suddenly smiled bitterly.

Since the death of his father, he has never returned to his hometown. For him now, that place is just a place that exists in his memories.

"There is no need to go back to that place..." Fang Zhiqiang looked into the distance, not knowing what he was looking at, and sighed, his tone full of desolation and sadness.

Seeing Fang Zhiqiang's appearance, Li Xiaoxiao obviously knew why. He immediately stood up slowly and came to Fang Zhiqiang's side. He hugged Fang Zhiqiang's neck tightly with his arms and gently pressed his cheek against Fang Zhiqiang's head.

He said softly: "It's okay Qiangzi, as long as you are willing, I am willing to go back with you at any time."

In fact, deep down in Fang Zhiqiang's heart, he still wants to go back to his hometown and take a look. Looking at the furnishings in the house, he can think of every insignificant memory about his childhood.

However, it is those memories that can make a person clearly aware of where he came from and where he is going.

This is exactly what the saying "fallen leaves return to their roots" means.

"How about we go to your hometown when we come back from Beihai this time?"

Li Xiaoxiao's palm gently rubbed Fang Zhiqiang's back and said.

Hearing this, Fang Zhiqiang did not speak immediately. When he mentioned his hometown, he felt very confused. His father's death seemed to be just yesterday. He used to argue with his father for so long, but later they stopped arguing.

Heaven and man are separated forever.

Memories are often beautiful, not because life is not as good as before, but when people recall, they often can't help but think of those beautiful things and moments, and those unhappy ones will automatically be filtered out by people.

Now, when Fang Zhiqiang thinks back to his father, they are all fond memories of childhood.

"Let's go! Let's go over there and buy some food."

Fang Zhiqiang suddenly stood up, trying to get rid of this sentimental memory, and then pointed to a canteen on the shore and said.

Li Xiaoxiao also stood up after hearing this. It was almost noon now, and he was indeed a little hungry.

The two people stood up together and walked slowly toward the shore.
