Nostalgia.

Time passed slowly, and the setting sun disappeared behind the western mountains.

It seems that evening comes particularly early in the mountains.

Suddenly, Cui Yun stood up. "I'm going to get the chicken from home."

Hu Li grabbed Cui Yun's arm: "We just had chicken for lunch, and there's still some left."

"Uh, I'm going to get the rabbit from home. The rabbits my dad raises are pretty much like wild rabbits, so I told him to kill them."

"No, let's slaughter another chicken instead," Hu Li said.

"Stop eating chicken, let's eat rabbit instead. Eating chicken all the time gets boring."

As Cui Yun spoke, he glanced at Chen Liang.

"He's come all this way, I should treat him well."

Chen Liang thought: Yes, you should treat me well. You should not only use your rabbits, but also your people.

In fact, wasn't that exactly what Cui Yun was thinking?

That's exactly what she thought.

Now that Chen Liang has come, she absolutely doesn't want to miss this opportunity again.

Hu Li?

Chen Liang is not Hu Li's man or husband.

Why care about her?

Why should I care about her?

In fact, Chen Liang also felt ashamed.

He came alone, without bringing anything with him, yet he always ate other people's food.

He knew that chicken and rabbit were basically the best things Hu Li and Cui Yun could offer their guests.

It's not a hormone-containing food.

Instead, they are genuine local specialty foods that are nutritious yet harmless.

Chen Liang was pleased with this.

"Alright, I'll go get it."

Cui Yun broke free from Hu Li's restraints and walked out on her own to get the rabbit from her house.

Hu Li said to Chen Liang, "Let her go get it. Since she's willing to go, let her have it."

Chen Liang asked, "Where does she live?"

Hu Li pointed to the east: "It's to the east, not far away."

Cui Yun's home is better off than Hu Li's.

Chen Liang had already seen it when the three of them met before.

Cui Yun was more reserved than Hu Li, and more restrained in some matters.

But whether he will restrain himself or not, Chen Liang doesn't know.

Perhaps, over time, Cui Yun's restraint has long since faded.

……

Hu Li makes other dishes...

Standing next to Hu Li, Chen Liang said somewhat awkwardly, "I'll go buy some things, some wine, some gifts, for you and for Cui Yun, otherwise I won't feel comfortable."

Hu Li glanced at Chen Liang.

"Fine, go if you want. But this time, it's not what I asked you for."

Hu Li still remembers things from the past.

Chen Liang smiled and said, "I know."

Chen Liang left Hu Li's house and headed west.

I went to the convenience store and bought some gifts.

It's basically just eight-treasure porridge, with milk, eggs, and things like that.

What should I buy?

These are the things mentioned.

Chen Liang bought two portions.

One was from Hu Li, and the other was from Cui Yun.

Chen Liang returned to Hu Li's house and separated the two sets of documents.

Hu Li didn't say anything.

Perhaps she also felt that Chen Liang should buy something for Cui Yun during his visit.

They even thought that it didn't matter whether they bought it for themselves or not, but they should buy something for Cui Yun.

Now, Hu Li no longer wants anything from Chen Liang.

As time has passed, she has also changed...

……

Soon after, Cui Yun returned, carrying a slaughtered rabbit in his hand.

Cui Yun lit the fire.

Chen Liang was burning.

Cui Yun stewed rabbit...

Hu Li also heated up the leftover chicken from lunch and put it on the table.

Once the rabbit is cooked, I'll drink with Chen Liang and Cui Yun.

And discussing the past, the present, and the unknown future...

……

As night fell, the entire mountain became dark.

The rabbit is cooked.

Chen Liang, Cui Yun, and Hu Li sat down at the small dining table.

They poured drinks, and under the lamplight, the three of them drank and chatted...

……

During their conversation, Chen Liang learned that Cui Yun's man was often away from home, sometimes for almost a year at a time.

I occasionally come back from the wheat field.

Coming back this year is pretty good.

Chen Liang sighed: "Sigh! So many men and women get married, but they can't be together. What's the point of living like that?"

They travel far and wide for money and a living.

Is it possible that there is no food to feed the family at home?

Don't you have a job?

Ugh!

Chen Liang knew that there wasn't one.

Not only does Hu Li not have it here, but it's almost nonexistent in his hometown either.

But his hometown is a little better than Hu Li's, at least somewhat better.

wipe!

Chen Liang couldn't understand this.

I don't know why.

……

Loneliness can sometimes drive people mad, insane, unbearable...

……

"Where are we tonight?" Cui Yun suddenly asked Chen Liang.

Chen Liang looked at Hu Li, "Of course she's here."

At this point, Cui Yun, who was already somewhat drunk, realized that he had asked an idiotic question.

Where can Chen Liang go?

It must be here.

Should I take a taxi to the county town to find a hotel?

Cui Yun herself was unwilling, and she knew that Hu Li was also unwilling.

Chen Liang is here. What's he here for?

Of course, it's about rekindling the old flame and settling the unfinished business.

How could we send someone to the county town and kick them out?

Cui Yun felt that her question was foolish!

Cui Yun smiled and offered the wine: "Here, drink."

"And you?" Chen Liang asked Cui Yun, looking at her.

"I……"

"Here," Hu Li answered for Cui Yun.

Cui Yun blushed, "Yes, yes, we haven't finished chatting here yet."

Chen Liang smiled. "Come on, drink..."

There are four bottles of liquor, all white spirits.

Two packs of beer.

……

Cui Yun could tell that Chen Liang probably wanted to stay here for a few days.

Since he's staying here and I don't have anything to do right now, I'll stay here and keep Chen Liang company for a few days.

Spend some time with him.

I also want him to keep me company.

Yes.

That's what Cui Yun was thinking at that moment.

After all, the three of them lived far apart, and Chen Liang might not come again after this visit.

Who knows?

……

The mountains were silent and dark.

Even this small courtyard was quiet and still.

Occasionally, a wild bird's cry could be heard from deep within the mountains.

I don't know what kind of bird it is.

Chen Liang didn't ask.

Perhaps Hu Li and Cui Yun didn't know either.

……

I finished a bottle of baijiu.

Chen Liang 14 liang, Hu Li and Cui Yun 3 liang each.

Then drink beer...

……

Each person drank one bottle of beer.

The chicken is gone.

There's still a little rabbit meat left.

The three of them were full.

Chen Liang suddenly asked, "How about we go out for a walk tonight?"

Hu Li rolled her eyes at Chen Liang: "If you're not afraid of being carried off by a wolf, then go out for a stroll."

Chen Liang shuddered.

Cui Yun smiled.

Hu Li got up...

She went to the east room and laid out two quilts, one for herself and one for Chen Liang.

They were all inside the mosquito net.

She then went to the west room and laid out a quilt.

Cui Yun's.

Cui Yun will stay here tonight.

If she were to leave, Hu Li would not allow it, nor would Chen Liang.

Cui Yun didn't want to leave either.

She had already told her family when she came that she was coming to Hu Li's place and would stay there that night.

Now that all three of them had drunk so much, Chen Liang and Hu Li were even more determined not to let Cui Yun leave.

Actually, there was another reason why they didn't let her leave.

Hu Li knew that Chen Liang wanted to sleep with Cui Yun.

She also knew that Cui Yun wanted to sleep with Chen Liang.

She was lonely.

She was lonely.

She was lonely.

She is empty.

Hu Li thought that if Chen Liang was willing, then he could sleep with Cui Yun if he wanted.

Anyway, he's not her man.

I am willing to make sacrifices.

Hu Li also knew that Cui Yun was here for the same reason.

However, I can't guarantee I'll go to sleep tonight.
