70.It was exactly Gongbu who managed to carry Kama and Pierre down the mountain that day and put them carefully by the fire one by one.Furthermore，he did all these in a way so quietly and naturally.After settling them well exhaustingly，however，Gongbu did make the OK sign with his fingers telling Haichu he won the climbing contest.Haichu just smiled a slight smile and devoted to put on robes for them three without uttering a single word.Gongbu stayed here by himself silently for a little while and then flaked out in exhaustion.

71.That night，the heap of dairy manure burned briskly ****** the surrounding grounds within two meters hot as heated floors.Seated calmly on the earth，Hiachu was humming a long-standing song that had been prevailing along the lake： A hawk is hovering high in the skies How keen and sharp are his eyes； A steed gallops through a thousand miles His shining saddle works miracles； The mountain-like man owns the love of a nymph The tenderness of her heart，his paradise！
72.Lying in line on the ground were Kama，Pierre and Gongbu in face of Haichu whose cheeks appeared to be aflame and nice in the moonlight.Actually，the blush on her face came partly from the lavishly burning dairy manure and partly from the fact that she had been clutching tightly to her bosom the frozen big feet of the three guys whose tiny unconscious movements on her breast did make the girl rather bashful.
73.Pierre was the first one who came around that night.When feeling through his feet the soft breasts as the warm ewe tails，Pierre lost control of his emotion and sat up suddenly，lapping Haichu affectionately in his arms.The lovers were kissing so hard on the lips totally unaware of the track of time.Gradually，Kama came to life，spotting Pierre and his sister，Haichu.Without uttering a word，he had very gently his feet moved out of her breasts and pretended to be still in faint sleeping for the whole night.Gongbu was the last one rallying from the coma.He just turned around silently at the sight，hiding the pains and disappointments deep in his heart.
74.Early the next morning，they all returned in safety and recovered soon.Their story，however，went around long with different versions in locals.

75.According to Kama，what happened that night was nothing more than a short conversation between Pierre and Haichu： Pierre asked Haichu affectionately，"Will you marry me？" "I do！I do！" replied Haichu merrily.
76.Gongbu，however，had another story that went： Haichu just asked Pierre，"Are you a nobleman？" and Pierre answered nothing but was seated silently for the whole night.Nevertheless，both Kama and Gongbu admitted Haichu kept humming the soothing songs overnight.
77.Just a couple of days later，nobody cared whichever version was true，because any local folk around Qinghai Lake could tell you that a French young guy married a kind and beautiful local girl and went to Paris.Before long，they returned to the cycling base，****** it their permanent home...

First，Move into Your New House
Fain would I contrive warm houses for the quake victims so that they can all live a happy and peaceful life.
Within a year after the Wenchuan earthquake which occurred in May 2008，most victims in Huangjiawan，a small village of Gansu province，moved into their new houses and the others would also have their own before October 1，2009.What a miracle！Talking about their apartments with their thumbs up，the villagers attributed their fortunes to Chinese government's relief efforts and preferable policies as well as to their two cadres who emulated with each other to ameliorate their life.

1.In Longnan，Gausu province，between the crystal Bailong River and the soaring Daqing Mount lay a picturesque hamlet by the name of Huangjiawan.The place was an alluvial plain created throughout centuries by the river，which made a crescent-like turn before the big mountain.From when God knows，people came in succession to settle down here，eventually forming a tiny village by the Reign of Qian Long（1711-1799）.Small as it was，Huangjiawan boasted a story that spread across the province.The heroes of the story were Cai Danian and Huang Manfu，two old men living at the opposite ends of the village.Cai was tall，tough and chattering，while Huang was short，gentle and quiet.Since their youth，the two had tried to beat each other in everything they thought was worthwhile.As the locals said，they were so stubborn when quarreling that even ten cows could not drag them back.What they quarreled over？The colleges their offsprings attended，jobs they had，houses and cars they bought，home appliances they used，even unimportant honors and titles such as "five-virtue family" they earn —— all these were grists that went to the mill of their quarrel.They were even jealous about such trivial things as the number of stars their grandchildren got from their teachers as a prize.The older they grew，the more they would like to argue.During forty years they had been this way.Forty years—— they would doubtlessly be so to their graves.Little did it seem their quarrel would come to an end.Quite strangely，the residents were more than happy to see the two old fellows quarrelling day to day.No one had the slightest mind of dissuading them from the life-and-death warfare.
