Chapter 137: , Sincere to each other, wind and moon by the lake (Please subscribe!)

Although Grandma Song was over 60 years old, she was nimble, and a table of dishes was prepared before 5:30.

Li Heng asked Song Yu beside him, "Do you usually eat so early?"

Song Yu replied, "About the same, because it's cooler when the sun sets, which is the best time to pick tea leaves, so dinner will be a little earlier."

Li Heng blinked, "Then are you going to pick tea leaves later?"

Looking at each other, Song Yu asked with an orchid-like temperament, "Are you afraid that I will neglect the guests?"

Li Heng said in a sycophantic way, "We are so familiar with each other, what kind of guest am I? I'll accompany you."

Hearing this, Song Yu smiled beautifully, quiet and silent.

When eating, Zhao Ping wanted to call Li Heng to sit on a long bench and incidentally be a drinking companion, but seeing Li Heng sitting next to Song Yu very naturally, he looked up at his brother-in-law Song Shi, then at his sister-in-law Jiang Yue, and the enthusiastic words reached his lips and were swallowed back.

The Song family also discovered this, but after looking at each other, they all pretended not to see it.

Jiang Yue picked up the wine and said to the English teacher, "Runwen, I know you can drink. It's rare to come to Dongtinghu once, shall we drink some?"

The English teacher was very straightforward, put the cup in front of Jiang Yue, and didn't refuse whether it was poured more or less, focusing on being straightforward.

After pouring for the English teacher, Jiang Yue poured another cup for Li Ran, then asked Li Heng, "How about you? Do you want to write tonight?"

It was a plain sentence, but Li Heng felt a sense of alienation. It seemed that she didn't particularly like him. He simply shook his head and said:

"No, Aunt. I get dizzy easily when I drink, and I have something to do tonight."

Song Shi wanted to persuade him to drink, wanted to persuade him to drink a small cup, but thinking of his wife's concerns, he extinguished the idea.

Li Heng didn't drink, and his good brother Zhang Zhiyong naturally wouldn't drink.

Song Yu also didn't drink.

Seeing this, Song Jin looked at her eldest niece meaningfully, then at her sister-in-law, and became a wooden man, not asking or caring about things at the dinner table.

This meal started off dull, but fortunately, the English teacher was generous and drank back and forth with the Song family, and the atmosphere gradually improved.

Without drinking, eating is always fast, but it's not easy to just put down the chopsticks and leave. Li Heng and Zhang Zhiyong endured the time, and Song Yu, who noticed the situation of the two, put down her bowl and chopsticks and said to them:

"Li Heng, Zhang Zhiyong, I'll accompany you out for a walk."

"Okay." Li Heng stood up, exchanged pleasantries at the table, and the three left the house.

Just as they walked outside the courtyard, Zhang Zhiyong glanced and found an excuse to slip away, leaving Li Heng and Song Yu facing each other.

You look at me, I look at you, and the two were a bit quiet for a while.

After looking at each other for a long time, Song Yu opened her mouth to break the silence, "Why did you come to Dongtinghu?"

Li Heng didn't hide it, "Writing needs it, and I also want to come and see you before school starts."

These words sounded particularly complicated in her ears. Song Yu lowered her eyelids, moved her gaze away calmly, and said:

"Mom knows about you and Zijin. You went to Jingcheng during the summer vacation, and Manning accidentally let it slip."

She said this without a beginning or an end.

But she was explaining the reason why Jiang Yue was not close to him at the dinner table just now, so that he wouldn't hold a grudge.

At the same time, she was also waking herself up and reminding him.

She knew it wouldn't be so easy to get along with, not so easy. If it were another girl, Li Heng could still be thick-skinned and play the rogue.

But facing Song Yu, these flashy things wouldn't have any effect, and instead would pull the distance between each other.

Seeing him silent, seeing him looking at the lake water and not speaking, Song Yu couldn't bear it and said, "Let's go, let's walk around the small island and digest the food."

Li Heng came back to his senses and asked, "Just the two of us? Aren't you afraid Aunt will chase us out?"

Song Yu smiled and asked back, "Are you afraid?"

Li Heng said sincerely, "If I were afraid, I wouldn't have come."

Hearing this, Song Yu took the lead in taking small steps and walked towards the small path on the front left.

Li Heng followed, walked for a hundred or so meters, and then asked, "The sun is starting to set, aren't you picking tea leaves?"

Song Yu reached out and plucked a cluster of dandelions, blew gently by her mouth, and instantly countless small umbrellas drifted away lightly in the air.

She looked up slightly at the drifting flowers and asked quietly, "Is Zijin okay?"

Li Heng followed and looked at the dandelion flowers. Instinctively, he didn't want to answer this question, but after a while, he said, "Okay."

Song Yu seemed to have guessed his thoughts and pondered, "I thought you getting into Peking University was a sure thing."

Inexplicably, Li Heng's heart trembled. He withdrew his gaze from the air and landed on her side profile.

She was beautiful, her voice was clear, and her orchid-like temperament was accompanied by a gentle charm, which was very moving.

Standing for a long time, Song Yu suddenly asked, "Is it beautiful?"

Li Heng said in a daze, "Beautiful!"

Song Yu looked into the distance and said calmly, "Still not as beautiful as Xiao Han, right?"

This! Li Heng's little heart was thumping, jumping to his throat. He immediately expressed his stance, "I'll expose my identity to Peking University tomorrow and let them send me an admission notice."

Song Yu tilted her head and stared quietly into his eyes. Her pitch-black eyes were like black holes, emitting a misty luster. At this moment, it seemed as if she wanted to crush him and break him apart.

Facing each other silently for two minutes, the guilty Li Heng finally lost to her powerful aura.

He said, "Every time I see you, I feel you've become different, but I can't describe where you're different. In a few years, I don't know what you'll look like. I'm sorry, I didn't get into Peking University."

With the three words "I'm sorry" coming out, the strange atmosphere on Song Yu instantly vanished. She returned to her indifferent appearance again.

Song Yu smiled knowingly and asked, "Did you use these words to pursue Zijin back then?"

Mentioning this, Li Heng couldn't help but be a little smug, "No, I generally don't pursue girls; girls pursue me. You are the exception."

These words reminded Song Yu of those love letters of his, the love letters that the head teacher repeatedly forbade, "Did you open your love letters when you went back?"

Li Heng shook his head, "No, mine don't need to be opened; my heart is already full.

I did look through your love letters once and found that there was no opponent in a single round."

Song Yu looked at him and asked word by word, "The heart is full, is it two? Or three?"

Li Heng was instantly embarrassed and stunned, standing woodenly in place until she walked 30 meters away before chasing after her.

Next, the two didn't speak for a long time, walking side by side around the island along the small pebble road.

This time it seemed there was no harvest, but Li Heng could feel that his coming to Dongtinghu to find her had lowered her defense level against him a lot, somewhat having the meaning of an old friend, transcending friendship.

But he understood, only a little bit more, not much.

Walking quietly for almost two-thirds of the island, Song Yu finally spoke again, asking softly, "Can you tell me about your new book?"

"Okay."

Song Yu wanted to listen, so how could Li Heng refuse.

He immediately told the experience of the summer vacation one by one. Including going to Jingcheng, going to Gansu, going to Dunhuang, going to Dujiangyan, going to Liu Hou Temple, going to the Three Gorges, and coming to Dongtinghu.

Except for not talking about the relationship with Chen Zijin, everything else that could be said was said.

It took about half an hour to talk, and his mouth was dry.

Song Yu was a very good listener. Meeting her eyes inadvertently always aroused Li Heng's greatest desire to tell.

Seeing his lips starting to dry, Song Yu shifted her path slightly and brought him to a place where mountain spring water erupted, saying, "The residents on the island usually use this water. It's very clean and very sweet. Try it."

Li Heng had long been thirsty, so he didn't care and lay on the stone slab to drink it in big gulps. He drank several gulps in a row, and finally praised, "Refreshing, cool to the heart, rare mountain spring water."

Song Yu sat on the stone next to her, hugging her knees with both hands, and asked him, "You've written three novels in a row and run through half of China. Are you tired?"

Li Heng thought for a while and said very sincerely, "Sometimes people are tired, sometimes the heart is tired, but thinking that it can bring me fame and fortune, and can let me get what I want, after being tired, I am still full of energy."

Song Yu asked, "You have already achieved success and fame, is there anything you want more urgently?"

Li Heng gazed at her and didn't make a sound.

Meeting his obsessed gaze, Song Yu calmed down. After a while, she shifted her gaze and said, "I don't want to pick tea leaves today."

How lethal is she to peers of the opposite sex?

She, as a mother, knows it best.

Because Jiang Yue also experienced it one by one when she was young, so she can naturally understand.

This night, the mother and daughter talked until very late before sleeping. Jiang Yue, as a senior intellectual, and especially treasuring her daughter, didn't show any aggressive side.

She just exhorted earnestly, "When you are at age, you talk about future feelings, Mom doesn't oppose it. But this matter must not be rushed. You must first figure out what the other party's path is, and you must also figure out your own heart.

It is said that men are afraid of entering the wrong line, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. Marriage is a major event and must not be impulsive; it must be cautious."

"Okay." Song Yu promised.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Yue, who had drunk too much wine, got out of bed to go to the bathroom and found that the light in Li Heng's room was still on. She specifically looked at the time.

2:07

This Li Heng is a diligent master. No wonder he can achieve such great achievements at a young age.

Regarding this point, Jiang Yue felt admiration.

If it were an ordinary person, having money and fame at this age, he would have floated long ago, and would have been dizzy by victory long ago.

But Li Heng's actions and words were still steady, and his impression was very good. If it weren't for knowing that he had been entangled with Chen's daughter, and now coming to entangle with her daughter, maybe Jiang Yue would really open one eye and close one eye.

One night passed.

The next day, the sky was just dawning, and the old man Song and Grandma Song opened the door and went to the tea mountain.

There is dew in the morning, and tea leaves are easier to pick, which is the best time for picking.

Li Heng got up at the sound, put on his clothes and got out of bed, and didn't forget to kick the dim-witted one, "Old Yong, help pick tea leaves."

Zhang Zhiyong complained, "It's you soaking up girls, not me, why call me to suffer."

Li Heng smiled and said, "Not for anything, just because we are brothers."

Zhang Zhiyong immediately jumped off the bed and angrily pinched his neck with both hands, "Damn it! Just knew you would use this trick to eat me to death!"

Don't say, this trick is really useful, and it works every time.

When the two went out, they unexpectedly ran into Song Yu in the courtyard. The latter seemed to see through Li Heng's little thoughts. Looking at each other, she handed him the small bamboo frame with a faint smile in her eyes.

Then, she took out the white plastic that had been prepared early and wrapped it around him with a rope to avoid the dew wetting his body.

Seeing Song Yu helping Li Heng dress neatly, Zhang Zhiyong on the side had his gallbladder sour, "Song Yu! My good boy, you are Song Yu! Don't let everyone down! You'd better persist for ten or eight years, hang him, and starve him to death!"

Song Yu smiled knowingly and ordered Li Heng, "You help Zhang Zhiyong."

Li Heng was broken-mouthed, "No help, he cursed me like this, he deserves to be single."

After saying that, he pulled Song Yu and left, leaving the dim-witted one behind pointing to the sky and scolding his mother.

Junshan Island is not high. When the two reached the top, they found that Song Jin and Jiang Yue were already there. Not far away, they also saw Zhao Ping and Song Shi wearing plastic and smoking, chatting while smoking.

Besides the Song family, there were many shadows in the neighboring tea mountain. If they were not mistaken, other tea farmers should have gotten up early.

"Is this all yours?" Li Heng swiped his right hand and asked curiously.

Song Yu said yes, and took him to find a relatively flat plot of land with many tea tips, and got busy.

Li Heng claimed to be a tea-picking master, which was not bragging. I saw him using both hands at the same time, his fingertips like having radar precision guidance, Swoosh! A piece of tea leaf reached his left palm.

Swoosh, another piece of tea leaf reached his right palm.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh, his left and right hands were as fast as lightning, accurate and ruthless. Others only picked one piece of tea leaf, but he had already finished 4 pieces. This hand speed stunned Song Yu.

She was not at ease and specifically checked the tea leaves in his bamboo basket, only to find that the buds were more beautiful than the ones she had carefully selected.

Song Yu smiled and asked, "How did you do it?"

Li Heng didn't raise his head, focusing on his work, "Nothing else, just practice makes perfect."

Song Yu looked back at her mother and aunt, then at her grandmother, thinking that they were fast enough before, but now she suddenly had the illusion that they were slow.

Later, the dim-witted one, the English teacher, and Li Ran came.

The dim-witted one was called over by Zhao Ping, and together with Song Shi, the three big men picked tea while smoking.

In the middle, Zhao Ping suddenly asked the dim-witted one, "Are the people in your place so powerful?"

The dim-witted one glanced at the tea leaves in the two people's baskets, and they didn't add up to as much as his own, so he immediately laughed, "I don't count as anything, I can't compare with Li Heng."

After picking for nearly 2 hours, Song Jin's wrists were a bit tired. While straightening her waist to relax, her gaze had been on Li Heng and her eldest niece. After a long time, she said to Jiang Yue:

"Sister-in-law, the two are talented and beautiful, and they are still very well-matched."

Jiang Yue raised her head and looked at the backs of Li Heng and her daughter talking, but didn't make a sound.

After 9 o'clock in the morning, the sun was on the top of the head, and the poisonous sun was burning on the skin.

After working for nearly 4 hours, everyone returned to the courtyard, ready to wash up and eat breakfast.

Zhao Ping specifically took a scale to weigh everyone, and the result was that Li Heng and Grandma Song picked the most.

Li Heng had a full 5 catties and 4 taels.

Grandma Song was slightly less, 4 catties and 6 taels.

In fact, Grandma Song was old, and her hands and feet were not so nimble, otherwise, she would also be double-handed picking, and the weight of the tea leaves would not be less than Li Heng's.

The dim-witted one also had more than 3 catties and a half. Huo! Beating a large group of men in the Song family.

When it was Song Yu's turn, Zhao Ping hung the tea leaves on the scale and praised, "Not bad, this time there is 1 catty and 1 tael, our little Yu also broke the record, haha."

Song Yu knew her own affairs. The extra few taels were secretly grabbed by Li Heng, otherwise, it would still be 8 taels.

Li Heng whispered to Song Yu, "It's over 3 catties, I'll come again next year."

Song Yu looked at him and smiled, saying okay.

After breakfast, Li Heng and the four others prepared to set off and leave Dongtinghu for the next stop.

Before parting, Song Yu found two photos from the drawer and gave them to him, "These are the photos we took on Hongqi Road in Shaodong County. You weren't home last month, so I haven't mailed them to you."

Li Heng took the photo and looked at it, very satisfied with his action of half-hugging her waist and abdomen, "What about you, did you keep any?"

"Yes, I kept two too."

Seeing him staring at the photo, staring at his hand, Song Yu automatically shifted her gaze and asked with concern, "Where are you going for the next stop?"

Li Heng looked for a while, and told her with unfinished meaning:

"Lushan, Guichi, Suzhou, etc., all the way east until Hushi."

Then he tried to issue an invitation, "Why don't you come with us? Go and see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland?"
