Thinking of the old man riding a cow that she and Fang Siyan saw that night when they spent the night in the mountains.
Ding Ruola hooked the corner of her lips, and a glint of eagerness flashed in her eyes. "Xiaoshuang, can this cow be ridden?"
Bi Shuang raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Do you want to have a try? Wait for me a moment."
"Okay!"
Watching Bi Shuang walking towards the distant hillside, Ding Ruola felt inexplicably happy.
She walked a few steps, looked at the crystal - clear river water, squatted down, and picked up the pebbles at the bottom of the river to play with. Occasionally, a few small fish slipped through her fingers.
Slippery and cool, it was a wonderful feeling...
Ding Ruola's lips curled up.
Just as she got up to check if Bi Shuang had come back.
When she turned around, she found that there were several young men slowly approaching her in the distance.
Some of them were wearing black vests, some were wearing flowery T - shirts, and some were in white shirts. They seemed to be in their early twenties.
However, they looked rascally and "ferocious", and one of the boys was smiling at her maliciously.
Ding Ruola's heart skipped a beat.
She looked around but didn't find Bi Shuang, and her heart tightened.
"Who, who are you? What do you want?" she asked in a trembling voice.
The boy closest to her was wearing a black vest and a pair of dark, ripped jeans. There was a tattoo on his arm.
The boy had a crew cut, thick eyebrows and big eyes, looking very bright. He was also playfully holding a foxtail grass in his mouth.
Li Yan glanced at Ding Ruola. Seeing the girl looking frightened, he shifted his gaze and burst out laughing.
But this laugh had a different meaning in Ding Ruola's eyes.
She just moved her hand to the back pocket of her pants, wanting to take out her phone and call Bi Shuang.
The boy took a few steps forward and said, "You're Xiaoshuang's friend? I heard from Grandma Bi that she's back."
"Y, you know Bi Shuang?"
As soon as Ding Ruola said this, she, uh, regretted it.
They were from the same village. How could they not know each other?
"Oh, my name is Li Yan. Xiaoshuang grew up in this village when she was a kid. My family lives next to hers. We're kind of childhood sweethearts." The boy tilted his head and smiled.
Hearing the name Li Yan, Ding Ruola suddenly remembered that the fish they ate at noon today, Grandma Bi seemed to say that it was sent by a guy named Li Yan.
Ding Ruola could forget anything, but she remembered things related to food clearly!
"Oh! So that's it! My name is Ding Ruola. I'm Bi Shuang's friend. Your fish is delicious!"
When Ding Ruola realized it, she smiled brightly, and then quickly added, "Do you still have fish?"
"Haha, yes! I have as many as you want! The river is full of them. Wait a minute! I'll spear some for you."
After hearing this, Li Yan patted his chest and laughed. Then he took a few of his brothers and went home to get tools.
At this time, Bi Shuang came back leading the cow. Looking at the backs of the young men leaving.
She suddenly looked at Ding Ruola nervously. "That jerk didn't scare you, did he?"
"Ah?" Ding Ruola looked blank.
"No! His fish is delicious! He's a nice guy too! He's going to spear some more fish for us!" Ding Ruola said with a giggle.
"Oh, that's good! Li Yan is not a bad guy. He's also really handsome! He's just a bit naughty, haha." Bi Shuang breathed a sigh of relief and added.
"Come and try! Didn't you want to ride the cow?" Bi Shuang gave an order, and the fierce and tall cow in front of them suddenly obediently lay on the ground.
Ding Ruola was both nervous and excited. She carefully straddled the cow's back, and the cow slowly stood up.
Ding Ruola let out a scream and immediately lay on the cow's back, clinging to the cow's body and not daring to move.
Seeing this, Bi Shuang laughed heartily.
Later, Ding Ruola tentatively sat up, and the cow walked slowly. The person on the cow's back couldn't hide the smile and novelty in her eyes.
Ding Ruola even rode the cow around the hillside, and finally the cow brought her back.
By this time, Li Yan and his friends had speared a lot of fat fish.
They folded a lot of lotus leaves and spread them on the ground, and the fish were piled up high and full.
The young men started a fire on the river beach and happily roasted the fish. The fish they couldn't finish were taken home by the young men.
The bright moon hung high in the dark sky, and the stars were all over the sky.
In the end, only Li Yan, Bi Shuang and Ding Ruola were left on the river beach.
Ding Ruola let out a burp and wiped the corner of her mouth contentedly.
She looked up at Bi Shuang and Li Yan. The two of them were full and lying on the river beach, using the ground as a couch and stones as pillows, looking at the stars.
"Click", with a smile on her lips, Ding Ruola took a photo of the three of them and saved it in her photo album.
Moment: [Dingdinghua: The grilled fish tonight is super delicious ~ Picture.]
Fang Siyan, who was on a business trip far away, had just taken a shower and was lying in bed when he saw the moment his little wife happily updated.
He saw a boy in the photo. The boy was quite handsome? And very attractive?
Fang Siyan raised his eyebrows, remained calm for two seconds, and then sent a message to Ding Ruola with a sense of crisis.
[Good night, baby! Don't stay up too late. I love you.]
[Yes, I love you too!] There was also a picture of a rabbit and a bear hugging each other behind it.
Seeing this message, Fang Siyan's lips curled up into a satisfied smile. Sure enough, he knew it! He was so excellent. His little wife wouldn't be easily seduced by a young hunk!
The rural life brought Ding Ruola new surprises every day.
Grandma Bi's house seemed to be Doraemon's pocket, and Grandma Bi seemed to be a magician.
She learned how to knit sweaters from Grandma Bi. Although the sweaters were crooked and there were occasionally a few extra - prominent wool threads...
Ding Ruola looked down at the few more Band - Aids on her originally slender and fair hands, and comforted herself with a giggle. "It's not too bad!"
She ran around with Bi Shuang and Li Yan every day, on the mountains, in the rivers, and on the ground. She had a really happy and fulfilling time.
She caught small insects under the stones and sent them to the pharmacy as medicinal materials; on the hillside full of green grass, she found a kind of grass with yellow flowers that could be dried and used as a cooling medicine and cooked with pork ribs; she herded cows and sheep on the hillside; she caught fish and crabs in the river...
After work, Fang Siyan got into his special car.
The driver turned on the car's speaker.
Fang Siyan sat in the car, flipping through his little wife's moments, with a smile that couldn't be stopped on his lips.
It was obvious that Ruoruo was really happy!
Suddenly, a news report from the car's speaker made Fang Siyan's smile freeze on his face instantly.
The man's eyes gradually became deep, and finally, they were as cold as ice.
"Please play the news just now again..." Fang Siyan's voice was so weak that only he could hear it.
"Ah?" the driver asked.
"Play the news just now again." Fang Siyan lowered his voice and patiently added.
He gritted his teeth, as if he was holding back and suppressing something.
