Chapter 24 Mandarin ducks play in the water
Eight o'clock was the time for the village to beat the gong to work, and seeing that they were about to walk to the Qin family's old house, the production team leader walked out of the house with the gong.
While!
Not far away, the production captain slammed the gong, the sound was deafening, Yunxi saw Qin Jianguo open his mouth, but he didn't hear what he said, so he asked, "What did you just say?" ”
Qin Jianguo pursed his lips and spoke again, dang!
The gong sounded behind him, Yunxi hurriedly covered his ears and said loudly: "Don't say anything, let's hurry up to your house!" ”
After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran to the Qin family's old house, not forgetting to call Shangdi, but she didn't see the corners of Qin Jianguo's lips raised slightly behind her, only this trace of expression was fleeting.
The old house of the Qin family was built on a gentle slope, and when Yunxi ran up the slope, he saw Li Cuixiang coming out of the old house, and Yunxi couldn't help but pause.
"Let's go inside."
Qin Jianguo rushed over from behind her and said to her sideways.
Yunxi snorted, grabbed Laidi's hand, and followed his footsteps.
"You're back?" Li Cuixiang greeted her, and said to Yunxi and Laidi with a smile on her face, "I made breakfast, you can eat some together." ”
"Uncle, we've eaten." Yunxi replied with a smile.
Li Cuixiang was stunned for a moment because of her voice, and looked up at Qin Jianguo, obviously hoping that he would correct Yunxi's title.
Qin Jianguo didn't seem to understand her eyes, and only said, "Mother, it's okay here, you can go back and get busy." ”
Li Cuixiang was not happy that he bombarded her away, frowned and said: "Today is a good day for you and Zhaodi, and this is the one thing my mother has to be busy with." ”
Lai Di was so frightened that she shrank behind Yunxi, and Yunxi smiled and said to Qin Jianguo: "Lai Di and I will send things into the house first." ”
Qin Jianguo nodded, handed the sheets and quilt in his hand to Yunxi, and Yunxi pulled Laidi into the only room in the Qin family's old house that could live in people.
This room has a bright front and back window, with a wooden bed, a table and two stools, and a vertical wardrobe, but the wood is very old, and you can still see the fine holes in the wood that have been bitten by termites.
Soon, Yunxi was attracted by the bright red quilt on the wooden shelf bed, and moved to two pillow towels, on which the mandarin ducks playing in the water were embroidered vividly.
She gasped, could it be that Qin Jianguo disliked her for being "small" before and just deliberately confusing her?
Could it be that she just got out of the Yun family's wolf den and entered the Qin family's tiger's den?
Is it too late for her to escape?
As soon as this thought was born, she saw a sound of footsteps, and the light at the door of the room was blocked, Yunxi turned her head to see the man whose face was shrouded in shadows and stepped into the room with her feet raised, startled her subconsciously retreated, and slammed into the wardrobe behind her.
Qin Jianguo glanced at the wardrobe that had been shaken by her, his footsteps stopped, he didn't move forward again, and he didn't speak.
Laidi noticed that the atmosphere was different, and was so frightened that she ran behind Yunxi as soon as possible and grabbed her hand.
As soon as his hand was warm, Yunxi remembered that he still had Laidi to take care of, his mind calmed down a little, raised his chin, pointed to the wooden bed covered with festive red, and said sarcastically: "Is this the sincerity of your cooperation with me?" ”
Qin Jianguo didn't understand why this black and thin girl suddenly exploded at first, and when she looked at the wooden bed with her hand, she was immediately stabbed by the red and her eyes were a little dizzy, he strode to the side of the bed, and immediately put away the two pillow towels for mandarin ducks playing in the water, and then turned around and explained to Yunxi: "This is my mother's change, I didn't know before." ”
Yunxi said noncommittally, stretched out his hand and pointed to the quilt on the stool and said, "We have prepared the quilt, please take your futon away." ”
Qin Jianguo understood that she didn't trust him, and didn't explain much, so he neatly cleaned up the quilt with the red quilt, put it under his arm and took it out.
There was one less man, and the air in the room was comfortable.
Lai Di first breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought of something, she grabbed Yunxi's hand and asked in a whisper, "Sister, aren't you going to sleep with your brother-in-law?" ”
"Aren't you happy that I slept with you?" Yunxi turned around and asked with a smile.
Brother Lai nodded subconsciously, and quickly shook his head: "People in the village have said that married men and women have to sleep in the same bed. Sister, I can go to the stove room and sleep alone. She tried her best to make a brave expression, but her trembling body couldn't help but reveal the uneasiness in her heart.
Yunxi patted her hand soothingly, and told her: "In the future, don't call him brother-in-law, just follow me and call him Brother Qin." ”
Lai Di was stunned for a moment, looked up and saw her sister's serious look, she suppressed the doubts in her heart and nodded obediently.
Yunxi was glad that she didn't get to the bottom of it, she cleaned up the bed, opened the wardrobe, and found that it was empty, and there was no clothing, she was stunned for a moment, could it be that she really misunderstood him just now?
Or is he using these details to confuse her?
Unable to think of an answer, she didn't want to, and stuffed the small suitcase she had brought with her into an empty closet.
The ground in the room was clean, the windows were clean, there was nothing to clean up, she took Laidi out of the door, and the little earth dog raised by Qin Jianguo pounced on her.
"Xiao Hei, they will be family members in the future." Qin Jianguo came out of the stove room and said to the little earth dog.
The earth-dog, named Little Black, seemed to understand his words, and withdrew his bared teeth at once, lowered his head, and shrugged his black nose around them.
It's smelling it.
As long as you remember their taste, it will be a black light in the future, and it will not bite them by mistake.
Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief, looked up and saw that Qin Jianguo had been standing at the door of the stove room, she thought about it, and still opened her mouth to thank you: "Thank you." ”
Qin Jianguo glanced at her, nodded slightly in response, and then beckoned to Xiao Hei: "Xiao Hei, come over for breakfast." ”
When Xiao Hei heard the greeting, he immediately lost interest in the sisters, turned around and ran to Qin Jianguo on all fours, wagging his tail at him happily.
Qin Jianguo rarely showed a hint of a smile, raised his finger to let it into the house, and then raised his head and said to Sister Yunxi: "Come in and eat some more." ”
Yunxi just wanted to refuse, her stomach happened to growl, she only ate one egg in Yun's house, and she digested it on the way, and her stomach was empty and waiting for food to be filled.
But she didn't respond immediately, and asked, "Uncle, is she home?" ”
Qin Jianguo snorted, paused and said, "It's usually fine, she won't come over." ”
Yunxi was relieved and led Lai Di into the stove room, and then was shocked by the scene in front of him.
She saw that there was a stone trough in the corner of the stove room, and the stone trough was filled with white rice porridge, which was very thick, thicker than the porridge she had drunk in the Yun family in the past few days, and she had not added sweet potato pieces to it, it was pure white porridge, and the earth dog named Xiao Hei was lying in front of the stone trough, sticking out his tongue and licking and eating happily.
When people don't have enough to eat, a certain man actually has the luxury of feeding a local dog with white rice porridge.
Yunxi felt a deep sense of disparity, she turned her head and met Qin Jianguo's gaze, who said to her expressionlessly, "Xiao Hei is my family. ”
Yunxi: "......"
