In the afternoon, Zhang Taiping, Old Man Qian and others went to work on the mountain together. The basic structure of the house had been built, and now all that was left was to lay mud and tiles on it.

When he came back from the mountain to the house for dinner in the evening, Old Man Qian asked: "Commander, have you found the loess I told you about last time?"

"Alas!" Zhang Taiping patted his head and said, "If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten about it."

Old Man Qian said: "We need to find this as soon as possible. After the main body of the house is built, it will be covered with mud and tiles."

Zhang Taiping thought for a while and shook his head and said: "I can't think of a place in my mind where this kind of loess exists. Does Uncle Qian know where it is?"

Old man Qian took a breath of dry cigarette and said: "When we were young, there were everywhere outside, but now they are all built into buildings. I do know one place, but it is in the upper reaches, and it is more than ten or twenty miles away.

It can’t be pulled into a cart, and the amount of soil required to build so many houses is not a small amount, so it’s the same thing as knowing it or not knowing it.”

Zhang Taiping understood what he meant. The main reason was that it was inconvenient and he couldn't get it back in large quantities, but he had his own way and insisted on asking: "I wonder where that place is?"

Old Man Qian looked at him and said, "You know you don't have it. Is it possible that you can still pick it back load by load?"

Zhang Taiping smiled and replied: "That's not a problem, but it is always beneficial to know. Maybe I can use the kang noodles, pans, pots and stoves in the future."

"Is that true?" Old Man Qian nodded, then raised his head and pointed at the towering Yizhi Mountain and said, "To cross Yizhi Mountain, there is a westward trail before reaching Luotuoling. It only takes a dozen miles to walk.

Yes. When I walked there before, the road was very difficult. Now I haven’t been there for several years and I don’t know if there is still a road.”

Zhang Taiping nodded and wrote down the path Old Man Qian told him.

After eating and waiting for everyone to leave, Zhang Taiping went to the river to take a cold bath.

When she came back shirtless, she saw Cai Yazhi sitting on the edge of the kang, looking a little uneasy.

Zhang Taiping saw that her hair was still dry and she had obviously not taken a shower. He couldn't help but asked curiously: "Aren't you going to take a shower?"

Cai Yazhi said: "Yaya and Ye Ling are washing inside now. I'll go there later." After a moment of hesitation, she opened her mouth and said, "I have something to tell you."

"What's going on?" Zhang Taiping asked sitting next to her.

"My little sister called just now and said that she won't be coming back for the time being." Cai Yazhi looked at Zhang Taiping and said.

"What happened?" Zhang Taiping asked. Xiaojin and Xiaofeng didn't come back to warn them, which meant that nothing unexpected happened.

Cai Yazhi said a little worriedly: "She said she would take a plane directly to Shanghai to play with her classmates."

Zhang Taiping said: "Just have fun, it's not a big deal, and you don't need a few dollars."

Cai Yazhi shook her head and said, "It's not about money. You said she's a girl running around outside all day long. Thinking about it, she doesn't feel safe."

Zhang Taiping smiled and shook his head and said: "What's wrong with this? Just go out and travel for a while. If you are even worried about this, then will she still work in other places after graduation? Will she still get married? She can't spend her whole life.

Will I stay like an old girl by your side? You are just too small-minded!"

Cai Yazhi blushed slightly and said, "That's different."

Zhang Taiping tilted his head and asked, "What's the difference?"

Cai Yazhi thought for a while and replied: "If you work and there is a company, it should be safe. Besides, you won't marry so far away, right?" Her concept is still limited to her own circle of life.

Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "This is not up to you. If my little sister has a boyfriend in college who is from another place, why don't you still fight against her?"

Cai Yazhi opened her mouth to say something, but she didn't say anything.

"What is advocated now is free love, especially those who have gone to college and have higher education. They are not allowed to talk to a matchmaker about finding someone to marry. When it comes to young girls talking about getting married with their boyfriends, we should not be too pushy. The main thing is to

She takes care of herself, we just have to check it for her."

Cai Yazhi had never thought about her sister marrying far away, and she was speechless for a moment.

Zhang Taiping put the towel in her hand and said: "Okay, let's not think about these things for now. The car has its own way to the front of the mountain. There is always a solution. Now let's take a shower first."

Cai Yazhi held the towel, with a worried expression on her face again.

"If you're still worried, I'll call Xing Rushui. She's in Shanghai. Just ask her to take care of her."

"Xing Rushui is also in Shanghai? Let her help you look for her." Cai Yazhi showed a happy expression on her face. She has been taking care of her sister since she was a child. Although she is not much older, she is like a mother.

Zhang Taiping picked up the phone and dialed Xing Rushui.

"Commander? Why did you remember to call? What's the matter?" Xing Rushui's voice came from the phone.

Zhang Taiping was a little afraid that she would say something that would embarrass everyone, so he said to the phone: "Well, there is something, let Xiaozhi tell you."

"Oh well."

After Cai Yazhi took the call, she said: "Sister Xing, it's like this. My little sister and her classmates went to Shanghai to play. I'm a little worried. Please take care of me."

Xing Rushui smiled and replied: "That's no problem. I'll call my little sister later and let her live with me."

"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Why are we so alienated after not seeing each other for a few days? How come the family is talking about two different languages?"

"No." Cai Yazhi dared to say.

"Yeah" Xing Rushui smiled softly and asked, "How is Mingming at home?"

Cai Yazhi nodded and replied: "Okay, nothing happened."

"That's good."

"Sister Xing, what else are you saying to Taiping?" Cai Yazhi asked.

Xing Rushui smiled softly on the other end of the phone and said, "No, just hang up."

Cai Yazhi hung up the phone. She was not good at words in the first place, and she felt that she had nothing to say on the phone. She handed the phone back to Zhang Taiping, took a towel and went to take a shower in the back. Her steps were obviously much brisker.

Zhang Taiping sat in front of the computer for a while, read some news, sent some photos, checked and replied to a few posts, and then turned off the computer after his hair was dry.

Cai Yazhi came in after taking a shower, tilted her head to one side, with three thousand black hair hanging down, and wiped it up and down with a dry towel. The wet hair added a bit of charm.

There is no such thing as a hair dryer at home, and even if there was one, she probably wouldn't use it. The concept of rural people is still to save when they can, and the hair that is blow-dried always feels dry and lackluster, and it still looks natural.

Well done.

Cai Yazhi sat next to the Kang, her moist hair draped casually behind her head, making the man next to her move his index finger.

Zhang Taiping directly hugged her and fell on the kang, then turned off the light.

Cai Yazhi struggled slightly and whispered with a red face: "I still want to ask you about my little sister, you..."

Zhang Taiping looked at the blush on her face and said, "Let's discuss our matters first."

...(Three thousand words are omitted here, please make up your mind.)

After calming down, Zhang Taiping hugged his wife in his arms, put his chin against her hair that was not yet dry, and said: "I'm going to go to the mountains tomorrow. If it's fast, I'll be back in one day. If it's slow, it will take two or three days.

.You give the money to the old man and he says I went outside."

Cai Yazhi raised her head, with the spring in her eyes still lingering, and asked, "What are you doing in the mountains?"

Zhang Taiping replied: "You need some loess to build a house. Old Man Qian said there is a place in the mountain. I will go and get some."

"Yeah." Cai Yazhi nodded. She didn't ask why she said he went outside, because she knew that something magical happened to Zhang Taiping, which made people feel like he was in a dream. In short, he just followed what he said.

What's coming? "What should I prepare?"

Zhang Taiping hugged her tighter and said, "No need, I will set off before dawn tomorrow."

Cai Yazhi was really tired, so she closed her eyes and became quiet as she spoke.

Zhang Taiping got up before five o'clock the next morning. He didn't disturb anyone in the house. He put all the things he needed in the space. He only took a shovel in his hand and called for help when he went out.

We walked together with grimaces.

The little grizzly bear saw Ghost Face and Zhang Taiping preparing to go out, and followed them, but was frightened by Ghost Face's roar and did not dare to follow them.

Zhang Taiping looked at it standing in the middle of the yard and was a little worried, fearing that it would run around again, so he went over to grab it by the neck, lifted it up and put it into the house, and then closed the door.

When I walked to the place where the things were kept, two big dogs, Huang and Shili, were lying next to the machine and taking a nap. When they heard the footsteps, they immediately raised their heads and raised their ears to attack. When they saw that Zhang Taiping was coming, they stood up and ran to him.

Come.

Zhang Taiping passed by the two dogs and patted their necks but did not ask them to follow him.

Entering the mountain, there is some moisture under the lush branches and leaves of the trees. On this summer morning in the mountains, if an ordinary person comes wearing short sleeves, he will definitely feel cold. But for Zhang Taiping, he only feels slightly cold.

These have no substantial impact.

This is the case in the mountains and forests. The natural ecosystem has the function of self-moisturizing and temperature-regulating, so even in summer the temperature will not be too high.

In the early morning when it was still dark and the birds had not yet left their nests, Zhang Taiping had no intention of admiring the scenery along the way. He just walked as fast as flying, walking on the path and through the woods as dexterously as an ape.

When we arrived at Luotuoling, we were full of footsteps. At this time, the first ray of sunlight from the east filtered through the gap between the mountains, like a sharp sword cutting through the darkness.
