He has the green hills to go alone

21

After a while, Xu Qingshan felt that his life had returned to the previous state.He still commutes between school and home every day, and occasionally goes on foot to the nearest village to buy some supplies.Li Xiangzhi was a little busy, probably because of the change of the weather. Recently, the symptoms of cold have become more intensive and urgent, and there are times when he is startled by knocking on the door in the middle of the night.

After this period of time, late autumn has come.

Late autumn is getting farther and the beginning of cold has just arrived, and the big white goose in the backyard will never have to spend the winter again.

Xu Qingshan only found out that the white goose had returned to the west when he was feeding at home after returning to the church. At first he was about to leave after throwing the food, but after taking two steps, he faintly felt that something was wrong, so he came back again.I glanced back and forth in the shed, my heart skipped a beat, and I understood it all at once.

The scrambled geese on weekdays were silent today, and each of them lowered their heads to eat the food under their bodies. In another place, the big white geese were nestled, their long necks bent under their stomachs, and they did not move at all.

Xu Qingshan stepped into the fence and squatted down in front of the big white goose. He stretched out his hand to stroke it, from the top of the head all the way down to the bottom.Through the feathers, he couldn't feel whether it was warm or cold, so Xu Qingshan gently shook the body of the big white goose.If there is no movement after shaking for a while, then it is shaking.

Still no movement.

Xu Qingshan stood up and stepped out again.

Li Xiangzhi returned to the village before the sky completely darkened. He opened the door and closed it again. He saw lights and candles in the main room. After walking a few steps and seeing no one from Xu Qingshan, he called out.

"I am back."

"understood."

There was a response from the person in the back room, and Li Xiangzhi just stepped into the door.There was a disk cover on the table, Xu Qingshan left it for him.He came back late these days, so he didn't let Mr. Xu wait for him to come back to eat.

Xu Qingshan came out of the back room, and rubbed his eyes after seeing Li Xiang, looking a little tired.

"Are you asleep? So early?"

"Just lie down for a while."

Li Xiangzhi put down the medicine box and went to wash his hands.

"Do you want to heat it up?" Xu Qingshan asked.

"Farewell." Li Xiangzhi waved his hand and sat down at the table.He lifted the plate cover, and there was a porcelain bowl of broth in the center.

Li Xiangzhi turned his head to look at Mr. Xu, and before he could say anything, the other party answered.

"I went to the house in front of me, my aunt insisted."

Sure enough, Li Xiangzhi muttered in his heart, this bowl of broth obviously didn't match Mr. Xu's craftsmanship, so he asked casually, "What's the matter..."

Xu Qingshan replied: "Send the goose."

"Send the goose..." Li Xiangzhi took a sip of the broth, and suddenly realized after chewing.

"What goose?"

"The one in the yard, I went to look at it when it was feeding, and it was gone. It was still warm, so I gave it to him."

Li Xiangzhi: "... just give it away."

Xu Qingshan gave a "hmm" and said again: "I'm afraid you will be sad when you come back."

How much can a goose be without... Well, it really hurts my heart. After hearing this, Li Xiangzhi felt a little embarrassed, and the meat in his mouth suddenly lost his taste.

There was nothing unusual about Xu Qingshan, he washed and washed as usual, and went back to sleep.

Li Xiangzhi fetched water and went to the yard to wash his face. When he washed his face, the slightly cool water splashed on his face, and his eyes became red. He stood there for a while, thinking about something, and finally wiped Two tears, went into the house and went to bed.

Shanyue disappeared, and the lamps and candles had been blown out. Li Xiangzhi looked sideways into the darkness of the room, only floating around like hallucinations.

"Are you crying?"

Xu Qingshan suddenly spoke out in this dark silence, and there was no emotion in his voice.Li Xiangzhi heard this, turned over, and faced Xu Qingshan face to face, he gave a soft "ah" as a response.Then Xu Qingshan pulled Li Xiangzhi's clothes, and Li Xiangzhi moved into Xu Qingshan's arms.

Xu Qingshan said: "It's going to be cold, this year is coming soon."

Li Xiangzhi yawned slightly.He has walked a lot in the past few days, and he will always be tired when he comes back. Sometimes he will fall asleep while talking with Xu Qingshan.

Li Xiangzhi said: "It's very fast, how is the school?"

Xu Qingshan said: "It's nothing, it's time for some students to leave the classroom. Weiqing and I are both here, and we will send them off sometime."

Li Xiangzhi asked again: "Who is leaving this time?"

Xu Qingshan said: "Youcheng Youqing brothers, and a few from Qiancun, they came together, and now they are leaving together."

"Where are you going after leaving the hall?" Li Xiangzhi asked with his eyes closed.

"I asked, and it was said that several people went north together." Xu Qingshan replied.

"To join the army?"

"did not ask.

A moment of silence.

Li Xiangzhi suddenly became sober, shivered inexplicably, his body trembled, and subconsciously leaned against Xu Qingshan again.

Xu Qingshan was not asleep yet, he felt Li Xiangzhi poking his abdomen with his hand, one or two was not enough, he got up two or three times one after another.

"What are you doing?" Xu Qingshan asked inexplicably.

Li Xiangzhi raised his head, caught Xu Qingshan's eyes in the dark, and said with a smile: "I don't pay much attention to it on weekdays, but now I feel that your little belly is much rounder."

Xu Qingshan was not polite after hearing this, stretched out his arms and legs, kicked Li Xiangzhi out of his arms, and then wrapped the quilt completely around his body.
