Chapter 21 Unexpected Delivery
Sending Manager Zhang out of the door and looking at his back as he left in a hurry, Xu Tianyu's expression was calm, without the slightest excitement of taking advantage of him. This is just a small benefit brought by rebirth, the outside world is very big, and there is still waiting for him to show his strength.
Turned around and went back to the house, ready to take a rest, and helped Chen Xiuqiao cut the grain all afternoon, even though he was young and strong, he also felt a little sore back.
As soon as he wanted to close the courtyard door, he looked up and saw Chen Xiuqiao carrying a small bamboo basket on his arm, walking towards him in a fashionable manner, his wet hair was scattered over his shoulders, and he had obviously just taken a shower.
"Sister, why did you come here when you weren't resting at home? What's in the basket? Is it delicious?"
Xu Tianyu stepped out of the hospital door and greeted him happily, his eyes rolling dishonestly on Chen Xiuqiao's body that had just come out of the bath. As if feeling Xu Tianyu's presumptuous gaze, Chen Xiuqiao's cheeks were crimson, and a pair of pretty eyes glanced at him fiercely.
"You have been busy with my sister all afternoon, I can't treat you badly, this sister fried a few side dishes and brought them to you. After eating, you must be tired today, right?"
Listening to the faint distress in Sister Xiuqiao's tone, Xu Tianyu's heart warmed, and he walked forward with a smile, lifted the small bamboo basket, and said while looking inside.
"Let me see what's delicious?"
Looking at his hippie smiling face, he looks like a naughty teenager, how can he still have the calmness when he met Manager Zhang?
Two side dishes are quietly placed in the bamboo basket, a plate of fried beans and a plate of cucumbers. Beans and cucumbers are common vegetables in their own fields, and under Chen Xiuqiao's skillful cooking, the green and green are so pleasant.
"Thank you, sister, I happen to be hungry, you are really a charcoal in the snow. ”
Xu Tianyu thanked him obediently, and recklessly went to pick up the bamboo basket hanging on the green white arm. As a result, accidentally, his fingers scraped the pink skin on Chen Xiuqiao's arm, and suddenly the two of them were like they were electrocuted, and a strange feeling exploded from the place where the two of them touched their skin.
Chen Xiuqiao's feeling was still strong, and the scraped place on her arm was sour and numb, which couldn't help but remind her of the scene where Xu Tianyu sucked her fingers in the valley field. As soon as the body was weak, the small bamboo basket couldn't hang up, and it slid to the ground.
"Be careful!"
Xu Tianyu exclaimed, stretched out his hand, and finally caught the basket before it hit the ground. But the two dishes in the basket were also mixed into one plate, and the beans and cucumbers were mixed together, so it was not lively.
Chen Xiuqiao blushed directly, and pinched the corners of her clothes a little helplessly.
"You see that my sister is really careless, these two dishes can't be eaten, or my sister is stir-frying something else for you. ”
"Don't. Xu Tianyu waved his hand and said indifferently, "This can still be eaten, it's a pity to throw it away." Actually, as long as it's fried by my sister, I love to eat it no matter what it is. ”
Faced with Xu Tianyu's sudden tender words, Chen Xiuqiao was even more at a loss.
"I know that Flim Flam, ignore you, sister is gone. ”
After saying that Chen Xiuqiao fled in a hurry, Xu Tianyu hummed a little song, carried two plates of dishes that had changed into one plate, and returned home.
I took out a dish from the bamboo basket that I didn't know what it was called, put it on my nose and smelled it, and suddenly the unknown smell of beans, cucumber, and garlic filled my nostrils, and the smell was ...... It's really sour.
But he couldn't stand the rarity in his heart, and a dish was eaten by him with the beer left over from the last horse face they drank.
After burping, he lay comfortably on the wooden bed, thinking back to Sister Fang Caixiu's shy appearance, Xu Tianyu's heart was beautiful. But in an instant, a layer of gloom shrouded his heart.
August 23rd is approaching, and my sister is about to receive Tian Chao's divorce agreement. But now he hasn't figured out how to get rid of Chen Xiuqiao, saving people must be saved, but after saving people? How to make Chen Xiuqiao rekindle hope in life? He knows that his current arms are still too delicate to support the future of him and Sister Xiuqiao.
In the boredom, Xu Tianyu fell asleep in a daze, since he couldn't think of a good way, he could only take one step at a time.
Soon on the 23rd of August, Xu Tianyu got up early, washed his face and knocked on the door of Chen Xiuqiao's house.
In the creak of the old wooden door, Chen Xiuqiao opened the door sleepily, her hair was not combed, and her face was not washed, but she did not give people a sloppy feeling at all, but exuded a lazy atmosphere all over her body. Even if it's a yawn, it's so beautiful.
Chen Xiuqiao covered her mouth lightly, blushing with shame from the big yawn just now. In the past few days, I have been busy collecting the evening baogu, although Xu Tianyu helped, but she was still tired, and she was finally finished yesterday, and she was thinking about sleeping lazily today, but this little monkey came early in the morning and knocked on the door.
"You little monkey, what are you knocking on in the morning, what's going on, the house is on fire?" Chen Xiuqiao said angrily.
Looking at Chen Xiuqiao's coquettish appearance, Xu Tianyu was stunned for a while, no, why is Sister Xiuqiao still like a nobody? In his previous life, he clearly remembered Chen Xiuqiao's painful and haggard face. He suddenly slapped his forehead, he was really confused, even if Tian Chao sent the divorce agreement today, the postman had not come to the village early in the morning, and Chen Xiuqiao naturally did not accept it.
Xu Tianyu touched his nose in embarrassment, and said hesitantly, "Today...... The weather was nice. ”
Hearing his nonsensical words, Chen Xiuqiao almost tilted her nose, and knocked on her door early in the morning just to tell her that the weather was good?
"Xu Tianyu, if you are very idle, you can run around the village, and you can exercise and exercise, don't leave me crooked early in the morning!"
After speaking, he slammed the door shut, Xu Tianyu couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, he was really concerned about it. Although everything is normal now, Xu Tianyu does not dare to take it lightly, because today is the most critical day, and whether he can make up for the regrets of his previous life depends on today.
He was thinking about whether he could prevent Chen Xiuqiao's suicide from happening at the source, that is, not letting Chen Xiuqiao see the divorce agreement. As for Tian Chao's matter, it is slowly being resolved, in this way, at least Sister Xiuqiao will not be so painful.
As soon as he thought of it, Xu Tianyu rushed to the entrance of the village, where he was going to intercept the postman and intercept the letter with the divorce agreement encased. But when the sun was up, I didn't even see a single hair of the postman, and the postman usually entered the village in the morning, and the thunder could not be moved for many years.
He hid behind a tree, but saw Liu Ying staring at his three-horse cart back to the village from outside, with a bulging sack in the back compartment, looking at his happy appearance, he didn't know what good things he had gotten.
Could it be that today's events won't happen? Xu Tianyu scratched his head suspiciously, couldn't help the hunger in his stomach, and walked towards home. He hadn't eaten anything, hadn't drunk a sip of water, and was hungry and thirsty.
Passing by the door of Chen Xiuqiao's house, the old door was closed, I don't know what Sister Xiuqiao is doing now? Holding back the idea of going in to find out, Xu Tianyu walked towards the door with heavy steps, and saw Liu Ying who had been waiting for a long time at the door of the house.
"Tianyu, where have you been, I've been waiting for you all morning. ”
Liu Ying was full of smiles, after making a lot of money with Xu Tianyu last time, he had infinite admiration for this dead friend, and even spoke with a smile.
"Oh. Xu Tianyu was very unenergetic, and replied weakly, "There is something to do when you go out, why Liu Ying, you have something to do with me?"
"It's not a big deal, just ask you, when is the next time we go to the city to do decoration, I'll prepare early. ”
"As soon as the second phase of the construction of that staff house is completed, we can go and take over the work. And you went to town today, what did you get a sack full of?" Xu Tianyu asked intentionally or unintentionally.
"Hehe, have you seen it all?" Liu Ying showed a rare expression of shame, "I have money in my hand, so I went to the town to buy some dry goods to satisfy my hunger." ”
Xu Tianyu was speechless for a while, but it is understandable, after all, it was the most realistic dream for people in that era to eat well.
"By the way, it seems that I also brought a letter to Chen Xiuqiao's house, and I happened to meet the postman at the entrance of the village, and he said that there was only one letter from Chen Xiuqiao today, so he would not enter the village, so I brought it back. ”
Liu Ying said to herself, not noticing that Xu Tianyu's face was already blue.
"What about the letter, what about the letter you brought?" Xu Tianyu roared with red eyes. Liu Ying was slightly surprised, and didn't understand why he was so excited.
"Letter, of course it's for Chen Xiuqiao, it's originally someone's letter......" In the end, Liu Ying's voice became smaller and smaller, because Xu Tianyu's cannibalistic gaze really scared him.
"Tianyu, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?" asked Liu Ying with concern despite being scared.
Xu Tianyu came back to his senses and smiled apologetically at Liu Ying, it was not his fault in the first place.
"I'm fine, you can go back first. When I have a life, I will not forget my brothers. ”
Turning back three times in one step, with a puzzled look, Liu Ying walked towards his home. Xu Tianyu also pushed open the courtyard door in a dejected manner, and fell crooked on the wooden bed, which made a painful squeak. It's really better to be a person, and I never thought that the letter would be sent to Chen Xiuqiao through such a way. He is doing useless work in every way, maybe when he wants to see through it, Sister Xiuqiao is heartbroken.
Thinking of this, he couldn't lie down anymore, the matter wasn't over yet, and he had to stop Sister Xiuqiao before she committed suicide!
Coming to Chen Xiuqiao's closed door, Xu Tianyu knocked on the door vigorously. The knock on the door seemed to knock on his heart, the heart that was worried about Chen Xiuqiao's safety.
After knocking for a long time, no one came to open the door, and just as he was about to break in, the door opened.
Chen Xiuqiao's eyes were red and swollen, and although the door opened, she turned around and entered the room without saying a word. Xu Tianyu's heart chuckled, looking at the situation, Chen Xiuqiao had already seen the divorce agreement.
