After eating, Li Mo and the others are ready to go back. There is no fun in the town.

After walking out of town, Li Mo picked up the basket and got in the car. Gu Changlin quickly rode back to Lihua Village.

It was quite early when I arrived at Liu's house, and Wang Ailan asked, "Why did you come back so early?"

"There's not much going around in the town, we'll be back."

After Gu Changlin parked the bicycle and walked in with something, Li Mo poured him a glass of water.

Li Mo didn't know what to say, but fortunately, both grandma and aunt took Gu Changlin to speak, Li Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

After the man came back in the afternoon, the eldest mother began to cook, and his grandmother stayed with Gu Changlin for dinner. He took advantage of the situation.

At dinner, their gang of men started drinking and persuading them to drink, but they didn't know how much they drank, and several of them were a little confused.

Fortunately, Gu Changlin was still sober. Grandma Wang's second grandson and third grandson were not yet married and did not drink at the wine table. They sent Gu Changlin back to Gujiacun.

Li Mo walked back slowly, thinking about her and Gu Changlin on the way. People are looking for someone very quickly this year, and she doesn't know if this is good or not.

Although Gu Changlin is the type she likes, he doesn't like his profession too much. It makes people feel insecure and can't rely on him at all times.

In addition, I don't know if it's the same as Gu Changlin's living habits.

Li Mo thought about it for a long time and a lot, and finally calmed down. I have just started to deal with each other now, so let's get along a little longer, and then we should get along for a year or two before considering whether we get married at the right time.

After thinking about it, Li Mo thought about the college entrance examination again. As soon as she came here for two or three years, the college entrance examination was about to resume in three years.

She must start to review seriously. In this era, she has nothing, and everything in the future needs to be created by herself.

Just do it. She had collected a lot of physics and chemistry series and high school textbooks at the town's waste station.

Li Mo found the book from the warehouse at home, and then took out another room at home as a study. Li Mo was tired after doing all these tasks, and went to wash and fell asleep.

Li Mo got up early the next morning and started to study after a simple breakfast. Li Mo is not a very smart person, but she is willing to work hard for the goal she set, to complete it.

Li Mo intends to start learning Chinese, which is relatively simple. Li Mo was a science student before, so she decided to choose science.

It was not busy now, so Li Mo did not go out and went to review for a day at home alone. Today, Gu Changlin's family may have something to do, but he didn't see him come to Li Mo.

Li Mo was still thinking before going to bed, that tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, Gu Changlin should come to him, after all, he should be leaving.

Sure enough, Gu Changlin came to Li Mo early the next morning. Fortunately, Li Mo got up early in the study these two days, otherwise she would definitely still be asleep when Gu Changlin came.

Hearing the knock on the door, Li Mo hurried out to open the door. "Gu Changlin, why did you come so early?"

"I didn't have time to come yesterday, I want to see you early this morning."

Li Mo blushed and said uncomfortably: "Then you come in and I'll make breakfast."

After speaking, Li Mo walked forward alone without waiting for Gu Changlin's answer.

To avoid suspicion, the door was not closed. Gu Changlin followed Li Mo to the kitchen. After thinking about it, he didn't go in, and helped Li Mo chop wood outside the kitchen.

Because Gu Changlin had a larger appetite, Li Mo deliberately cooked a few more sweet potatoes. She didn't deliberately make fine grains. A girl of her was not easy to get fine grains, and the village didn't distribute much.

Last year, Li Mo learned to accumulate sauerkraut, and took out a sauerkraut from the jar and cut it into filaments.

Heat a wok, put a little lard on it and bring it to a boil. Pour the sauerkraut and stir fry. The sauerkraut in the stir-frying smells particularly fragrant, and Li Mo likes to eat it with porridge.

After making these, even if the breakfast is ready, put the steamed sweet potatoes in a small basket, put two bowls of gruel on the table, and then you can eat.

Gu Changlin washed his hands and followed Li Mo into the hall for dinner. Li Mo usually doesn't have a lot of food, so he can be full if he eats one or two bowls of porridge in the morning.

Sweet potatoes are specially prepared for Gu Changlin, he can eat too much compared to Li Mo. Li Mo said, "You ate those three sweet potatoes, and the sauerkraut is very fragrant."

Gu Changlin didn't say a word, took out a sweet potato peeled and divided it into half for Li Mo. "Eat more, you are too skinny."

In the past, Li Mo liked to eat sweet potatoes. The roasted sweet potatoes at the roadside stalls smelled like ten miles, and he would buy one every time he met. A small sweet potato is also very expensive.

After coming here, the highlight of every day is sweet potatoes, and she is almost disgusted by her physiology. And eating too much sweet potato heartburn, the feeling is particularly uncomfortable.

Li Mo can not eat without eating now, but there are few times like this after all. The people here are sweet potatoes every day, she can't be special.

Fortunately, the fine grains distributed in autumn are not too small, so she can cook the porridge and add some sweet potatoes to the next grain distribution.

I have collected a lot of sweet potatoes on the land, but there will be some of them. Li Mo eats potatoes as much as possible, and sweet potatoes are dried. It doesn't feel much heartburn after eating it, and it feels much better.

Although I don't want to eat it, half of the sweet potato Li Mo can still accept it.

Li Mo lay on the table while eating sweet potatoes and asked, "Gu Changlin, you can eat so much, can you get enough in the army?"

Gu Changlin glanced at Li Mo, frowned slightly and said:

"You will soon be full. Sit up straight and eat well. Be careful to choke."

Li Mo felt that Gu Changlin was serious, and immediately sat upright, and silently lowered his head to drink porridge without saying a word. Why are you so serious in my heart, I'm not your subordinate.

I didn't see Li Mo talking for a long time. Gu Changlin thought he was scared Li Mo, so he asked: "How much food is given to you in the village and can you get enough."

Li Mo pouted and snorted, "I distributed three hundred and sixty kilograms of grain last fall, and I also received some sweet potatoes and potatoes in my private plot, so I can eat."

One catty of flour can make fifteen taels of steamed buns, and Li Mo can be full with just a few dishes when he eats two taels of steamed buns.

"You have to eat more food, especially when the village is busy, make yourself more delicious, and don't lose weight."

"understood."

Two people who have never been in love, one does not like to talk and the other does not know what to say, two people are so silent.

After breakfast, Gu Changlin cleaned up the table and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Li Mo watched beside him without knowing what he was doing.

After washing the dishes, Li Mo poured a glass of boiled water for Gu Changlin.

In the end, Gu Changlin broke the silence. He said, "What are you going to do today?"

Li Mo said honestly: "I plan to read high school textbooks. I didn't go to high school and want to learn it by myself."

"Go get the book, and I will watch you do the problem."

Li Mo asked curiously: "Have you studied high school?"

"Hurry up and get the book, and I'll talk to you about me when I come back."

Li Mo thought for a while and took mathematics and physics. She could memorize and memorize other things. Mathematics and physics depend on understanding. She may not understand it alone.

There happened to be the physics and chemistry series I found, and I brought them together. She put the book on the kang and said: "I got the book, you can talk about it."

"I was admitted to the military academy after graduating from high school. After the 1966 movement started, the school organized us as trainees at the grassroots level. We went directly to the army. When time was up, the school issued us a diploma, and I was also in the army."

Li Mo exclaimed: "Then you are quite good, and you were admitted to the military academy."

It is really difficult for Gu Changlin to enter a military school for a rural child. Some military schools only require cadre children and have high scores.

The military academy used to be the most popular for college entrance examinations, and Tsinghua University and Peking University had to go back. Gu Changlin, is this the "Golden Phoenix" flying out of the mountain?

"Fortunately, the ancestors are all poor peasants, and there is nothing wrong with the political review."

"It's great that you can go to college, and I want to go to college in the future."

Gu Changlin touched Li Mo's head and said, "If you have a chance, go there."

Li Mo broke away from his hand and said, "Don't touch my head, Gu Changlin, you are so good. Have you ever seen the scriptures in the book that the generals' daughters are attracted to?"

"What's in your head?"

"You haven't answered me yet, just say it."

"No, how come the ladies from the high-ranking official's family are attracted to rural people."

Li Mo didn't believe it, didn't he say that there are many such things? "It doesn't matter if you were a university dean, why wouldn't you like you. Are you embarrassed to say?"

In fact, there are, but unlike the daughters of the chief officials and teachers in the novel, they all like the male protagonist.

After all, the young guys from the countryside are burdened by the family and have to send some of their salary back every month.

The average official lady doesn't like those from bad backgrounds, and most of them look for the right people.

Even if a boss's daughter likes this kind of soldier occasionally, the family will ask him to hire him. The reality is not so good, classes have always existed.

"Don't make trouble, don't worry, I only like you."

Li Moxin trembled, and she felt a little embarrassed to say so suddenly.

Gu Changlin saw that she was shy and didn't break it. He said, "Where's your book, take it out for the problem."

Li Mo quickly took out the physics book. This is the most difficult one, so Gu Changlin has to explain it in detail.

The time to calm down and work on the topic passed very quickly, and Gu Changlin was worthy of being a master of study. The topic was easy to understand, and he was really a good teacher.

"Is it time for Gu Changlin to have lunch? Let me cook."

Gu Changlin looked at the time and said, "You continue to work on the topic, and I will cook."

Li Mo didn't refuse him, and continued to work on the topic. Gu Changlin went to the kitchen to prepare lunch by himself.

After doing the question for a while, Li Mo thought that Gu Changlin hadn't been here before and didn't know where to put anything, so he followed to the kitchen.

Gu Changlin took a handful of rice in the cupboard, washed the sweet potatoes, cut them into small pieces, and put them in the pot, ready to boil the pot dry.

Li Mo watched by handing things to Gu Changlin from time to time.

Li Mo hesitated for a while and finally asked, "Gu Changlin, do you like being a soldier?"

"Why do you ask? I used to think it was honorable to be a soldier, so I filled the military academy for the college entrance examination. Later I felt very good as a soldier for these years, and I was very free in the army."

"Have you ever thought about going to other school to do other things?"

Gu Changlin cut the potato shreds and said: "When I was young, I felt that being a soldier was very prestigious, and I never thought that I could go to college when I grew up. When I had a chance to go to college, I didn't know what to choose, so I simply chose the military academy."

Li Mo knows that people in this era are proud of joining the army, and rural people don't want to know every school and every major in detail in the college entrance examination.

So she smiled and said, "Do you want to be a soldier for a lifetime?"

Gu Changlin asked Li Mo to soak the potato shreds in water, and he was processing the vegetables again.

"Since I became a soldier, I didn't think about anything else. I was very happy when I was a soldier."

Li Mo stopped asking in-depth questions. Friends exchanged simple and deep conversations, and they did the same with each other. Have a chance to try again in the future.

For lunch Gu Changlin made a shredded potato and a cabbage, and the two of them had lunch.

Gu Changlin probably didn't eat enough. When Gu Changlin went to wash the dishes, Li Mo smiled and took out some dried sweet potatoes from the kang cabinet.

Gu Changlin eats sweet potatoes the most here today. I don't know if he will burn his heart.

After washing the dishes, Gu Changlin called Li Mo to take a stroll in the village. After spending the whole morning in the room, he had to walk around.

There were chattering people everywhere in the village, and Li Mo was reluctant to go, especially when it came to the talkative aunt, it was uncomfortable.

So Li Mo chose a path that was not too many to walk with Gu Changlin. When they reached the grove, the two stopped.

"Momo, I have to leave after the Lantern Festival."

"I guessed it. When will you get on the train."

"Take a train in town at half past six the day after tomorrow."

Li Mo thought that she couldn't do it if she wanted to send it so early. "So early? You have to go before it's light that day?"

"Yes, there are only trains at this point. After I'm gone, you have to take care of yourself, write to me more, and telegraph if something happens."

Speaking, Gu Changlin took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Li Mo.

Li Mo took it and asked curiously: "What is this?"

"I put some money tickets and my address in it. You have to take good care of yourself and eat more to gain weight. If you have anything to do, you can go to Liu Xi's house. His mother is my aunt."

Li Mo quickly handed the envelope on his hand to Gu Changlin and said, "I don't want it. I can earn centimeters even if I have money."

Gu Changlin changed his view: "We are dealing with each other. I hope you will have a good time and not be too tired. I will send you money every month in the future, and you must remember to collect it."

After speaking, he added forcefully: "Don't refuse me."

Li Mo was embarrassed again. As a self-reliant woman in the new era, how could she ask for money from a man.

Li Momo said: "Um, but I also have a salary every month."

Gu Changlin took the envelope and stuffed it into Li Mo's pocket and said, "Your salary is yours, and my salary is ours."

Li Mo was very happy, unexpectedly Gu Changlin was on the road. The boy is very good at talking now, if you say so, the baby will accept it. Li Mo looked at Gu Changlin and smiled without saying a word. Gu Changlin didn't care, he continued talking to Li Mo.

The two stayed outside for almost three hours, and Li Mo also felt that it was time to go back. So she said: "Gu Changlin, let's go back. I still have questions and I can't do it."

After saying this, Li Mo immediately regretted, frowning in annoyance. She may be the most disruptive person in the world.

It's really annoying to say something that is hard to say. Looking back, Chang Lin still couldn't think that he was just taking him as a topic? He was about to leave himself but he was thinking about the topic.

Gu Changlin looked at Li Mo with a smile and said, "Let's go, you should stand tired after being out for so long."

Li Mo hurriedly replied, "I'm a little tired, let's go back soon."

Gu Changlin didn't stay here for dinner, and helped Li Mo fill the water tank with water, chopped a lot of firewood and was ready to go back.

Li Mo didn't leave him to finish the meal, only said: "Gu Changlin, you come here tomorrow, I have something for you."

Gu Changlin said: "Okay"

After Gu Changlin left, Li Mo casually made some dinner. Then she took out a small piece of dried meat from the warehouse, washed it, cut it into strips, and fry it in a pot.

I also made some jerky as snacks before, because I didn't dare to give it to others, so I didn't make much, and I occasionally eat a little.

After thinking about it, there is nothing else you can bring.

Gu Changlin's family is also preparing luggage for him, special products to give to his comrades in arms.

Bai Xing prepared nuts such as walnuts, pine nuts, hazelnuts, some camellia noodles and some meat for her comrades.

When Gu Changlin came back, his comrades gave him various tickets, and Bai Li wanted to pay him back.

"Changlin, you and Li Zhiqing...? It takes a long time for you to come back after this walk. Can she be happy?"

"Mother, you can write to me. If you are fine at home, go to aunt's house to see."

"You kid, just let your mother help you take care of the person. Chang Lin, you said that if you are not a soldier, then you shouldn't be allowed to go to military academy. Now it is as good as being a worker when you come back."

It was not the first time that Gu Changlin heard his mother say this, and he was too silent to say anything. But he thought of the question Li Mo asked him today.

"Gu Changlin, do you want to serve as a soldier for the rest of your life? Have you thought about doing anything else?"

I kept thinking about the girl's words, but what can I do without being a soldier. Gu Changlin shook his head and continued to pack things.

The next day Li Mo was celebrating the Lantern Festival at Liu's house. Gu Changlin came to Lihua Village after lunch.

He ran to Li Mo's house and found that the person was not there, so he came to Liu Zhishu's house.

Shuanzi and Gougan first spotted him and shouted, "Sister Li Mo, Brother Gu is here."

"Brother Gu, Sister Li Mo is sitting on the kang, so go in."

Gu Changlin touched Goudan's head and walked into the hall.

As soon as Li Mo stood up, he saw Gu Changlin walk in.

"Gu Changlin, you are here."

Gu Changlin walked in and greeted Liu's family, then walked to Li Mo and whispered, "I'm here."

Li Mo and Gu Changlin left shortly after sitting in Liu's house, and the eldest aunt asked them to go out to talk.

"Gu Changlin go to my house, I have something for you."
