"Ah? Zhou Zhi, you are so bad."

"That's why I criticize him!" The eldest lady said, "Shuyi, you can eat it later. I'll cook you some poached eggs. It'll be quick."

"No, no, no." Zhou Zhi hurriedly started the pot: "Shu Yi and I have to catch the train, so let's eat first. If you want to eat the big head, you can lay the eggs yourself."

"What do you mean you have to lay your own eggs?" Su Datou, unlike Jiang Shuyi, was very familiar with Zhou Zhi's similar tricks of casually deceiving people, and immediately rolled his eyes.

Jiang Shuyi didn't even think of coming here at first, but when Su Datou woke up, she immediately laughed so much that she couldn't hold the bowl.

Zhou Zhi hurriedly helped Jiang Shuyi hold the bowl again, turned around and glared: "Burn Shuyi and I won't be done with you!"

Su Datou: "..."

After eating a meal of glutinous rice noodles, Jiang Shuyi and Zhou Zhi said goodbye to their eldest lady.

Su Datou comes here to stay for about a week every holiday. This time he has to wait for his sister, which is even better.

Therefore, Yan Xiao's unspoken prediction finally became a reality, and Zhou Zhi bought himself a short period of time alone with Jiang Shuyi.

"Shu Yi, how about we walk back."

"What?" Jiang Shuyi looked at Zhou Zhi carrying a large basket and the backpack from before: "No, you are carrying so many things. Why don't you give me your bag."

"Then forget it, wait until next time."

"Actually... the cannery... has a nice view."

"Really? Let's get off the bus there in a while... and go shopping for a while?"

"……Um."

Jiachuan Cannery has outdated equipment and poor sales. The canned red and orange fruits that were once very popular are no longer eaten by anyone. Only the military still has some orders.

The red oranges that were once grown in Jiachuan were generally disliked because they had higher acidity than ordinary oranges and were only suitable for canned sugar water.

Fortunately, citrus trees are easy to graft, so those trees are not considered white and can provide excellent stump heads for the next two species.

Therefore, during the time when Uncle Yao was in power, the red orange trees turned into ponkans, navel oranges, tangerines... At that time, the Jiachuan Cannery, which was once brilliant and specialized in canned red orange fruits and canned pork, was completely deserted.

Silence fell.

After the Hongshui River Bridge was built, the traffic from the county town to Ma Street and then to Rongshan was completely opened. The previously cramped layout was like a person suddenly being able to stretch his legs.

So the water plant, cannery, county fertilizer plant, Sichuan Tianhua plant, paper mill...factory buildings were placed one by one along the Yangtze River.

Of course, this also brings many problems, such as... exhaust gas and sewage.

The cannery was built next to an open stream. The stream has a gravel bottom and thick bamboo trees on both sides. The water flow is abundant in summer and crystal clear in winter. It can be seen that it was once very beautiful.

Now it is in the recovery period after the devastation. The water quality and vegetation are the same as before the factory was built. However, the white stripes that should be weaving in the water have not yet been seen. Similarly, the wandering birds in the bamboo forests on both sides of the bank are also very sparse.

In fact, it is very simple to recover. As long as the floods rise and recede in the coming year, many fish and shrimps from the Yangtze River will make their homes here.

It’s just that when the time comes, I’m afraid that the cannery will come in and orders will start again, and everything will go back to the present.

But even now, the scenery is very good. Zhou Zhi and Jiang Shuyi got off the car at the entrance of the factory department. They each bought a can of red orange and white fungus from the canteen at the door. They left their luggage at the canteen and opened the can and asked Jiang Shuyi

One person per person, while eating, we walked along the path along the stream.

"Tremella fungus is added to red tangerines. This is the last stubbornness of the cannery." Zhou Zhi sighed: "Actually, it tastes really good."

"Zhou Zhi, sometimes I don't understand your humor." Jiang Shuyi bit her spoon and felt a little confused: "Xinxin understands it, and so does Datou. But sometimes I don't understand it."

"Zhou Zhi, am I boring?"

Zhou Zhi sighed and leaned on a stone by the stream.

The stone here is a step higher. Although it is a small waterfall, the water flow in winter is too light and quiet. It hangs itself into a smooth curved glass and does not make much noise in the small pool below.

"Shu Yi, you are only seventeen years old, you shouldn't have these thoughts at all." Zhou Zhi said, "You are too sensitive and care too much about my feelings."

"But now that I've thought about it, it's an improvement to be able to ask about it compared to how I kept it in my heart before."

"Now let me answer your question. First of all, you are not boring."

"Your character determines that you are a person who studies and lives seriously. From my point of view, sometimes you are even a little "hard"."

"This does not mean that it is bad. Everyone's personality, even the same trait, may be an advantage in some things and a disadvantage in some things when faced with different things."

"For example, if you are serious in study and future work, that is definitely a good thing; but in life, you may appear a little dull and persistent. To use a familiar saying, you are 'living too seriously'

."

"And my personality is too loose, so I appear lively and naughty in life; but when it comes to study and work, I just muddle along, just trying to be comfortable and not trying to be perfect."

"Requiring a person who lives a serious life and studies rigorously to be humorous at the same time is completely contradictory in itself."

"So your interest is not humor, but other manifestations. For example, you like poetry, beautiful lyrics, moss pottery pots, and grandma's little embroidery patterns..."

"I like natural landscapes, I like to take photos, and I like to decorate the study room. Even the labels of "Zi Zhi Tong Jian Chang Bian" are tried to match the colors as harmoniously as possible, often ignoring the content..."

"Ah, you've noticed it already?" Jiang Shuyi couldn't help but blush a little.

"So you are very interesting, but it's the inner fun, not the outward fun." Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "So Shu Yi, you have always been a very interesting person, but you only want to let your true good

My friend, I just see and appreciate your fun."

Jiang Shuyi seemed to relax a lot, scooping out the can with a spoon: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness."

"What's there to be thankful for?" Zhou Zhi was a bit dumbfounded: "What I'm going to say next may be more important."

"Well, tell me."

"Actually, I think it might be easier for two people with complementary personalities to get along together." Zhou Zhi said, "Just like a pheasant, it can only fly by finding the wings it lacks. Isn't it comfortable?"

"Ah!" The teasing meaning in Zhou Zhi's words is somewhat obvious. This is an allusion to Baita's meeting between Zhou Zhi and Jiang Shu: "I don't want to care about you anymore!"
