Looking at the sumptuous banquet in front of her, Li Aifang couldn't help but feel moved. In this era, there is no more solemn way to entertain guests than this.
In her opinion, Liu Guangqi's family spent at least two months on reserves in order to entertain her, and even used the items for the New Year's Eve dinner today.
But not long after, after she married into the Liu family, she realized that her emotion today was unnecessary.
Although the Liu family's usual food is not as good as today, it is not much different. Braised pork every day, red braised pork every meal, and as many white-flour steamed buns as you like.
After dinner, Liu Guangtian took Li Aifang around the courtyard again, met Bai Mei, Chen Xueru, He Ruiyun and the others and got to know each other.
"I see Sister Meiko, they are all quite young. Why don't they get married? Aren't you afraid of others gossiping if I live in the same courtyard with you?" After coming out of Liu's house, Li Aifang couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked.
"That's it. They want to get married, but no one dares to ask for it." Liu Guang and the others want to get married, so my eldest brother has to agree.
"Why does no one want them? Although they all have children, they all look quite young, only in their twenties, and they are so beautiful. How come no one wants them?"
"What are they in their twenties? They are in their thirties, and the oldest one will be forty in two years." Liu Guangtian laughed after hearing this.
"Ah, more than thirty, almost forty, how can it be possible? They look so young, they are only twenty-six or seven at most. You didn't lie to me." Li Aifang suddenly turned her head and looked at Liu Guangtian in disbelief.
It's not that her eyesight is bad, it's just that Bai Mei, Chen Xueru and the others have taken good care of her.
"Why am I lying to you? They are really in their thirties. The reason why they look young may be because they work less and the work is easier and less tiring." Liu Guangtian casually made up a reason. In fact, it was vague in his heart. There is a guess that the reason why Bai Mei and Chen Xueru age so slowly is probably related to Liu Guangqi's space.
Not only Bai Mei and the others, but also Liu Ma, who often travels in and out of space, has slowed down her physical aging. There has been no change at all for seven or eight years.
"Even if I'm a little older, it's not like no one would dare to marry her. If she's so beautiful, there must be someone she likes." Li Aifang still didn't believe that no one would dare to marry Bai Mei and the others.
"The specific situation is a bit complicated. Let's talk about Sister Meiko first. The reason why no one wants Sister Meiko is because he had a partner before and gave birth to a child. Later, the man abandoned her and married another woman. Then she went crazy."
"Crazy? Isn't it normal for me to look at her just now?" Li Aifang asked.
"When she is not mentally ill, who can tell? When she becomes crazy, you don't know how scary she is. Even her mother would dare to kill her. Let me tell you... tell me, who dares to marry such an aunt? , if there is a quarrel, give yourself a knife if you wake up in the middle of the night." Liu Guangtian told Li Aifang the story of Bai Mei's past. The more Li Aifang listened, the bigger his eyes became. When he heard the last sentence, his jaw almost dropped in shock.
"She is like this and you still dare to live in the same hospital with her without being afraid of her," Li Aifang said with a pale face.
"It's okay. You have forgotten what my brother does. This disease has been cured by my brother for a long time. He has not been ill for five or six years. Although he has not been ill, his reputation has fallen. Again. Plus she has adopted a child, so she has no idea about getting married."
"Oh, what about the remaining two? Why no one wants them?" Li Aifang let out a sigh of relief after hearing this.
"Sister Xueru was hurt too much by men and didn't want to get married. She felt that she was quite comfortable living alone, and she also had a son. She would have someone to take care of her when she got old in the future, so she didn't need a man. As for Sister Ruiyun, it was because her background was too poor. His previous man was a bandit leader, so no one wanted him. In fact, some people mentioned it, but she didn't want to be wronged." Liu Guang led Li Aifang towards her home.
…
"Ah, comfortable"
"It's hard to have a holiday during the New Year, why don't you sleep a little longer? Why are you getting up so early?" After coming out of Chen Xueru's room, breathing in the cold winter air, Liu Guangqi shivered, and then stretched out his arms beautifully. Lazy back.
Liu Qiufang, who was busy making breakfast for the family, asked distressedly when she saw Liu Guangqi getting up so early.
"I have something to do today. I have to go out with Guangtian. There is no need to cook for us at noon today. Sister-in-law." After having a simple breakfast, Liu Guangqi put on his backpack and equipment, and came with Liu Guangtian and Li Aifang. Appointment place.
Prepare to go to the place where the treasure is located to see if the entrance to the cave is submerged in water.
"Brother, Guangtian, you are here." From afar, the two brothers saw a handsome figure standing under the bus stop sign. When they saw the two people across the road, they immediately waved to them.
"Is it cold? Why are you here so early?" Seeing his partner standing alone in the morning light, Liu Guangtian immediately walked over and put his scarf around the other person's neck regardless of Li Aifang's objections.
"It's not cold. Aren't I afraid that if you can't wait any longer, the result will be early." Li Aifang replied with a blushing face.
"Why are you so stupid? It's just a little later. What if it's so cold and I get frozen? Do you want to feel sorry for me?"
"Oh, you two, stop being so stupid, the bus is coming." Hearing Liu Guangtian's last words, Liu Guangqi had goosebumps all over the floor. Even if the other person was his own brother, Liu Guangqi wanted to beat him to death.
Fortunately the bus came so promptly.
"Guangtian, aren't we just going to that place to have a look? Why are we carrying two such big bags?" After getting in the car, Li Aifang discovered that behind the Liu Guangqi brothers, each was carrying a bigger bag, which was larger than the bags carried by the People's Liberation Army during the march. Still big.
"Isn't the place we are going to be in the wilderness this time? The terrain there is so complicated. It is always good to prepare more things. Who knows if we will encounter any accidents? It's better to be prepared."
"Then there's no need to take so much. Aren't you tired of carrying it?"
"I'm not tired. With you by my side, I won't be tired even if I prepare another one."
"Ah, if you're not tired, you can carry me on your back soon." Hearing these disgusting words, Liu Guangqi grinned.
If it was the Liu Guangqi brothers who were going this time, they wouldn't have to carry a lot of things, but with Li Aifang as their guide, Liu Guangqi could only try his best to pretend to be a normal person when there was no need to expose the space.
"The terminal is here. Everyone got off the bus." After more than an hour of driving, the bus finally arrived at the terminal. There was a narrow mountain road ahead, which meant that only three people could rely on two people to reach the road further back. Legs.
"Oh my god, we're finally here," Liu Guangqi couldn't wait to jump out of the car after hearing the conductor's announcement. He seriously suspected that Liu Guangtian was retaliating for the dog food he had fed him, and his behavior along the way was so annoying. If there weren't so many people, Liu Guangqi would have slipped into the space long ago.
"What should we do next, Fangfang?" Liu Guangqi walked up to Li Aifang and asked after glaring at Liu Guangtian.
"This, it should be over here." Li Aifang looked at the three paths leading into the mountain in front of her, hesitated, and pointed to the edge of the path.
"Are you sure, Fangfang? Don't make the wrong choice, or your trip will be in vain."
"It's been so long that I can't remember clearly. If it's not this one, then it's this one. I remember this very clearly." Li Aifang said, pointing to two paths that were very close to each other.
"It's okay. If you go wrong, you will go wrong. It's time to climb the mountain to exercise." Liu Guangqi kicked Liu Guangtian and took the lead towards the path chosen by Li Aifang.
"The scenery of the North is covered with thousands of miles of ice and thousands of miles of snow. Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, there is nothing but vastness; the rivers up and down suddenly lose their torrents. Silver snakes are dancing in the mountains, and wax figures are galloping in the mountains, wanting to compete with the gods. On a sunny day, look at the red clothes The plain clothes are extraordinarily enchanting. There are so many beauties in the country that they attract countless heroes to bow down. I cherish the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, and they are slightly less literary; "Although the mountains and rivers in the north are not as beautiful as those in the south, in the winter when the snow falls, there is a sense of beauty that is not as majestic as the south.
Not long after the three of them entered the mountain, they reached the halfway point of a hill. Looking at the scenery in front of him, Liu Guangqi couldn't help but read out the classic poems of great men.
"Woo!" Before the three of them could carefully appreciate the beautiful scenery in front of them, the sharp and biting northwest wind was like a knife, rushing straight towards the three of them along the valley. The three of them couldn't help but shiver from the cold.
Especially Li Aifang, although she was wearing several sweaters, facing the cold wind, it was as if she had no clothes on, and her face turned pale in a flash.
Liu Guangqi didn't expect it to be so cold in the mountains. He thought it wouldn't be that cold after entering the mountains because of the big mountains blocking him. However, he forgot that the mountain trend is constantly changing, when there is leeward and then there is windward.
"Are you okay, Fangfang? How about we switch, you wear mine and I wear yours." Seeing Li Aifang shivering from the cold, Liu Guangtian took off his coat without saying a word.
"No, my clothes are too small for you. Put them on quickly. You won't freeze anymore." Seeing Liu Guangtian's reaction, Li Aifang felt warm in her heart and quickly pressed Liu Guangtian's hand.
"It's okay, look at your face and it's pale."
"It's okay. If it's colder, it'll be colder. I can still hold on. What if I'm warmer if you change me? Can you put on my clothes? Don't take them off. If you take them off again, I'll get angry. ." Li Aifang threatened while buttoning back the buttons Liu Guangtian had unbuttoned.
"Brother, what should I do?" Seeing Li Aifang trembling, Liu Guangtian had no choice but to look at Liu Guangqi asking for help.
"Follow me." Being frozen like this is not a solution. Fortunately, Liu Guangqi has a solution. After looking around, Liu Guangqi found a small cave not far away. Calling it a cave is a bit flattering, because it It's only a little over a meter deep, barely able to block the wind.
"Put this on." Liu Guangqi jumped in first, and then took out three jackets from his bag.
"This is this?" Li Aifang's eyes widened when she saw the clothes Liu Guangqi took out from the bag.
"Be prepared, put it on quickly. I also have these shoes. I don't know how big your feet are, so I took a pair of 39's." After taking out the jacket, Liu Guangqi took out another pair of shoes from his bag, which Liu Guangqi had to carry on his back. The bag is big enough, otherwise the stuffing will be exposed.
"It's so warm. It's not cold at all. What kind of clothes is this? It's so magical." After putting on the jacket, Li Aifang instantly felt that her body temperature had risen a lot. She stood outside and blew in the cold wind, but she didn't feel anything at all. .
"This is called a jacket. I bought it in Hong Kong a few years ago. It is specially used for camping in the wild. It is windproof, cold-proof, waterproof and warm." After hearing that this was something from abroad, Li Aifang immediately shut up and stopped praising this piece of clothing.
"There's no need to take these clothes. Hide them here. We'll get them when we get back." Soon, the three of them put on light and warm jackets. Seeing that Li Aifang was still holding the clothes he had changed into, Liu Guangqi took them out directly. The clothes were wrapped in a bag and then thrown into the cave, covered casually with withered grass.
After changing clothes, the biting cold wind suddenly felt much warmer, and it no longer penetrated through the gaps in the clothes like it did just now.
"Aren't we here yet?" After coming out of the cave, the three of them walked along the mountain road for a while, but Liu Guangqi found that the farther they walked, the more desolate they were, and the road became more rugged.
"I don't know. I remember that at a corner, I was in a hurry to go to the toilet and ran into a small forest. I found a small road in the small forest. I followed the small road and saw the lake not far away." Li Aifang Looking at the unfamiliar scene in front of him, he frowned and said,
"Then did you see anything familiar along the way? Can you be sure that the path we are taking is the right one?" Liu Guangtian asked in a low voice.
"I don't know. It was summer when I came, and now it's winter." Hearing this, Liu Guangqi suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He probably went the wrong way. When going out for an outing, he must have chosen a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. The place they were in now No matter how you look at it, it doesn't even compare to the beautiful scenery.
"It's okay. Maybe we haven't reached the place yet. Let's go to the top of the mountain and have a look." Since we are not sure whether we are going the right way, we can climb up and look far away. Maybe we can catch a glimpse of the lake at some point.
After that, Liu Guangqi led the two of them to climb towards the top of the mountain. The mountains to the west of bJ were both steep and gentle. The area where Liu Guangqi and the others came the third time was a place with relatively steep mountains.
"Ah!" After huffing and puffing for a long time, the three of them finally climbed to the top of the mountain. Before Liu Guangqi could take out the binoculars and take a closer look, Li Aifang's scream came from behind.
Liu Guangqi turned around and saw that Liu Guangtian and Li Aifang were hugging each other and rolling down the mountain.
"Grab the rope." Liu Guangqi was shocked when he saw this scene. The slope of the hill below them was not small, more than forty degrees. If there was no obstruction, the two of them would probably be able to roll to the bottom of the mountain in one breath. Unless they If they can stop by themselves, otherwise the two of them will end up very miserable, either rolling to death or being hit to death by the protrusion in the middle.
Without any time to think, Liu Guangqi directly conjured up a bundle of rope and threw it towards the two of them. After seeing Liu Guangtian grabbing the rope, Liu Guangqi quickly ran to the side of a small tree and stopped the two of them from falling with the help of the small tree.
"Are you okay?" Seeing that the two were no longer rolling, Liu Guangqi slid down the rope and fell beside them.
"It's okay," Li Aifang shook her head.
"What about you? Guangtian"
"I'm fine too. Look, oops." Liu Guangtian just wanted to show off his strength problem in front of Li Aifang, but when he raised his arm, he suddenly felt pain and grimaced.
"It's all my fault. If it weren't for protecting me, you wouldn't have fallen down with me." Li Aifang burst into tears when she saw Liu Guangtian's uncomfortable look.
"Why are you crying? You are my wife. How could I just watch you fall alone? Ah, hehe, brother, please be gentle. This is my arm, not a stick." Liu Guangqi was quite worried about Liu Guangtian's condition. , but seeing that Liu Guangtian was still in the mood to be silly and talkative, he knew that this guy's injury was not serious. He stretched out his hand and touched it and it turned out that it was just a dislocation. Liu Guangqi pushed his arm up without saying a word.
Liu Guangqi didn't want to talk nonsense with Liu Guangtian. He picked up the telescope and observed the surrounding environment. After the fall just now, the three of them fell directly from the other side of the mountain to this side.
Liu Guangqi tried to lie down on the top of the mountain again and pull the two of them up. However, as soon as he tried hard, the small tree above broke with a bang, thus blocking the way for the three of them to climb back.
"What should we do now, brother?" Seeing this scene, the two people on the side looked at Liu Guangqi.
"What else can we do? Of course we need to go down the mountain first and find a way." Liu Guangqi rolled his eyes at the two of them and slowly slid towards the foot of the mountain.
"It's snowing." After sliding slowly for a long time, the three of them finally arrived at the foot of the mountain, but before they could find a way.
Heavy snow fell like goose feathers from the sky.
"I'm sorry for your mother, it's really raining all night when the house is leaking," Liu Guangqi said, looking at the darkness above his head. It was clear that the sky was clear when the three of them entered the mountain, but how long did it take for the sky to become like this?
If he had known it would be so bad, he would have come back another day. "
