Chapter 35 (1)
When he stepped into the door, He Tu always felt uneasy in his heart, always afraid that he would see his mother-in-law's face that was always reproachful as soon as he hit his face, but he didn't think about it, but Cheng Jiahua was waiting at the door, and when he saw her come in, he grabbed her arm and said unhappily: "You asked me not to go out, but you went out yourself." ”
He Tu glanced at him in surprise, "It was my sister who came looking for me, so I went out for a while." Her tone paused, "You, waiting for me?" ”
"Hmm." Cheng Jiahua looked at her with a frown, "I'm dying of hunger, and I don't have anyone to cook." ”
He Tu was immediately relieved, she pulled his hand away, and said as she walked inside: "Let's eat together today, you don't know." ”
"yes." Cheng Jiahua became stammering, but still pretended to be upright, "My mother is old, as a junior, you don't cook, do you want my mother to cook." ”
"Yes, yes, you're right." Hedi frowned, and she saw Mu Shi standing at the door of the large kitchen, hurriedly lowering her head and speeding up her pace. When she passed by Mu Shi's side, she heard her mother-in-law say gloomily: "I've been out for so long, I've been going to wave for you, right?" ”
He pretended not to hear, lifted the curtain and entered the house. She washed her hands and put on an apron, squatted down in front of the stove and got busy, the noodles for making dumplings had been made, and the mixed stuffing was also placed on the board, it seemed that her mother-in-law was ready and waiting for the dumplings. After a while, Mu Shi also came in, in the huge kitchen, there were only two people, her and her mother-in-law, the whole space was quiet and a little weird, both of them refused to speak, but the speed of making dumplings in their hands was getting faster and faster.
"Alright, let's cook these first." Mu Shi stopped his hand and looked at the bag almost, "You can get it, bring it to your father first when it's cooked." ”
"Got it." He Tu said, squinting at her mother-in-law washing her hands and walking out, and then breathed a sigh of relief. She happily stirred the dumplings in the pot, watched them gradually turn from small bumps to white fat, and gradually deflated, and then picked them up with a colander and put them on the plate.
"I want to eat." Cheng Jiahua's voice suddenly sounded behind him, startling Hedi. She hurriedly patted Cheng Jiahua's claws that had been stretched out to the dumplings, and reproached: "This is for Dad!" You wait, I'll cook again. ”
"No, I'm going to eat this." Cheng Jiahua looked at her defiantly, but his hand was not returned. He quickly snatched the plate of dumplings, put them on the tray, and bypassed him to go outside. Cheng Jiahua stretched out his hand to stop it, and said proudly: "It's okay for me not to eat, you have to give me some benefits." ”
"Don't make a fuss, the dumplings are almost cold." He Di didn't understand what he was going to do, and her brows furrowed more and more, but no matter how she went, Cheng Jiahua always had a way to stop her, so she had to stop and look up at him angrily.
"Do you want to give it?" Cheng Jiahua had an evil smile on his face, staring intently into her eyes.
"What benefits do you want?" He Tu had no choice but to ask.
"Kiss me, and I'll let you pass." Cheng Jiahua grinned, bent down slightly, and sent his right cheek to Hetu's eyes.
He Tu glared at him, feeling that this person was really unreasonable, she sank her face, raised her foot and kicked his calf hard, and while he hugged his leg and screamed, she quickly bypassed him and went out with dumplings.
The TV in the main room was still on, and the news was playing on it. The kang table has been placed, and even the small bowl with the seasoning has been placed, Cheng Jiayi snuggled next to Cheng Tielong, and when he saw Hetu coming in with dumplings, he screamed excitedly. He Tu put two plates of dumplings on the table and said with a smile: "You eat first, and I'll bring it when you're done." ”
"Don't be too busy, eat some yourself." Cheng Tielong said, but his tone was extremely absent-minded, and his gaze didn't even stop at Hedi. He Tu agreed, and walked out with the plate, feeling a little lost in his heart. I still want to be able to eat together as a family today, but no matter how you look at it, there is no place for me at that table, although there is a vacant seat, but it is reserved for Cheng Jiahua, not for himself, people seem to be a family, and he is an outsider. Looks like I'm going to eat alone in the kitchen tonight. He sighed and walked slowly towards the kitchen.
She cooked another plate of dumplings, brought them to the main room, and then went back to the kitchen to cook her share. Mu Shi asked Cheng Jiayi to call Cheng Jiahua several times and asked him to eat, but Cheng Jiahua was like a demon tonight, only close to Hedi's body, and refused to eat with his family. After cooking the dumplings and bringing them to the table to eat, he also served a bowl and sat next to her to eat, and he never responded to what he said, but he still kept talking, and even the dumplings couldn't stop his mouth.
He Tu didn't have much appetite after eating a few, Cheng Jiahua's noise was really annoying, she put the chopsticks on the table and said, "You better go to eat with your parents." ”
"I was having dinner with my daughter-in-law, what's wrong?" Cheng Jiahua heard the impatience in her tone, but she still smiled with a smile, "You finish eating, follow me back to the room after eating." ”
"I'll see if my parents have finished eating, I still have to wash the dishes, you can go back to your room by yourself." He Tu stood up and was about to walk towards the door, but his unguarded hand was suddenly grabbed by Cheng Jiahua, and she sat on his lap. He smiled greasy, and his tone was flattering and made people vomit, "What are you afraid of?" Are you afraid that I will do bad things to you? ”
"You don't want to do this, can you?" He struggled, "You're really not normal today. ”
"Am I normal?" Cheng Jiahua suddenly grinned, "It's not normal for me to do nothing to you, right?" He stood up with Hetu in his arms and was about to walk out the door. He Tu was small and weak, and he couldn't break free from his restraints, so ashamed and annoyed, he was almost about to cry. His bedroom is very close to the big kitchen, a few steps away, Cheng Jiahua stepped into the door, closed the door as soon as he raised his foot, strode to the bed, threw Hetu on the bed, raised his hand and began to unbutton his body.
He Tu jumped off the bed and ran to the door to get out, where was Cheng Jiahua willing to let her go, he tore her open, and even the door was locked. There was a strange smell in the room, which made her heart beat faster and frightened her, and she retreated to the couch, clasped her arms and looked at him in a panic, like a frightened fawn.
"I really can't stand it, what's the expression on your face?" Cheng Jiahua frowned, and only his underwear was left on his body, "It makes me feel like I'm forcing you." ”
"Aren't you forced?" He Tu said in a trembling voice, "At this time, if you are bumped into by your mother, I will have to be embarrassed." ”
"Who do you say is shameless?" Cheng Jiahua's expression suddenly became annoyed, and he took a step closer to Hetu, causing Hetu to scream in fright. Fortunately, this scream attracted the attention of others, and when Cheng Jiayi's evil laugh sounded outside the window again, Cheng Jiahua finally gave up the coercive means to be carried out on her.
"Forget it, we'll talk about it in the evening." Cheng Jiahua began to put clothes on his body, "Shut up, don't scream anymore." ”
He stood up tremblingly, looked at him warily, and leaned towards the door. Fortunately, he didn't do anything more to himself, and he opened the door and ran out smoothly. Cheng Jiayi was leaning out of the window and looking at her with interest, holding a handful of melon seeds in his hand and swallowing the skin of melon seeds.
"Phew." She spit out the skin of the melon seeds in her mouth vigorously, and said disdainfully, "Don't be ashamed." ”
He ran into the large kitchen, slammed the door shut, and sat down on the floor against the door. She hugged her knees and stared blankly at the air in front of her, a mixed feeling arose. She didn't know what she was afraid of, and the sight of herself being fully exposed to others made her panic. Although they slept in the same bed every night, so far there had not been a single act of intimacy. He Tu also naively thought that this was married life, but that night, when her mother-in-law called her and asked her vaguely if she had had sex...... She realized that what she had imagined was all wrong. From that time on, she was ready, but at this moment, she unconsciously became timid, not because she was afraid of Cheng Jiahua, but because- because of what? She couldn't figure it out herself.
After only a few minutes of frustration, Hetu quickly stood up and prepared to clean up the kitchen. She is like this, once there is something difficult and incomprehensible, she will find something to do for herself, when her hands are busy, her brain will not be cranky, what an effective way to solve problems. She hurriedly piled up the dishes on the stove and took the tray to the main room to clean up the dishes. When she stepped out of the door, she saw Cheng Jiayi sitting on the threshold of the main room from a distance, looking at her with a gloomy face. He Tu blushed all of a sudden, she hurriedly lowered her head, dodged Cheng Jiayi's gaze, and hurriedly walked towards the main room. However, Cheng Jiayi's gaze was like a man's back, although he didn't look directly, but he was uncomfortable. What kind of gaze was that, mixed with disdain and disgust, and there was some curiosity and expectation in it. It wasn't until Hetu disappeared at the door of the big kitchen with the plate that Cheng Jiayi slowly withdrew her gaze, she snorted lightly, fiddling with the pages in her hand, as if she was thinking about something.
After washing the dishes, sweeping the floor, and even every corner of the crevice, Hetu carefully cleaned it. It was getting dark, and when I looked out of the window, I couldn't see the distant scene clearly. In the dim light, he sighed and sat on the small bench not knowing where to go. She has been listening attentively to the sound in her room next door, after she came out of it, Cheng Jiahua has never come out, and the light in the room has not been turned on, I don't know what he is doing inside. Seeing that it was getting darker and darker, he thought that he would not be able to sleep on this little bench for the night. She stood up on her knees, glanced at the door sadly, and finally put down the rag in her hand, untied her apron, and walked slowly towards the door.
The door was not yet locked, and the sound of children chasing each other could be heard outside the door. In the distance, she heard male and female voices in the main room, and knew that they were watching the "Spring Festival Gala" at this time. When she was young, she was also very curious, but she didn't have the courage to buy that threshold, and sat in the sight of her parents-in-law and watched TV with peace of mind. The yard is so big, and after walking a few steps, I arrived at the door of my bedroom, and it was still dark inside, and he thought to himself, maybe Cheng Jiahua had gone out, and he just didn't hear his footsteps. Comforting herself, she mustered up the courage to lift the curtain and walked in.
Cheng Jiahua was really not in the house, the small room was empty, and the warm breath emanating from the stove instantly surrounded Hedi. She untied her coat, put it on the back of the couch, moved a bench and sat down by the stove. When there was nothing else to do, she picked up the unfinished sweater again and knitted it expertly under the light.
Once you focus on something, time flies. When I looked up again, the hands on the clock were already pointing to 9, and I could hear the faint sound of cannonballs outside. He Tu twisted his sore neck, and suddenly heard the curtain of the door, and a cold air rushed towards him. She hurriedly turned around, but saw Cheng Jiahua standing at the door, waved her hand and said, "Come here." ”
Instinctively vigilant, he craned his shoulders, not knowing what he told him to do. Seeing that she didn't respond, Cheng Jiahua's brows furrowed, and he waved his hand again, "Come here." ”
"What, what?" He asked, his eyes wide, for fear that he would suddenly do that to himself again.
"Eat together." Cheng Jiahua said, ready to come in and pull her. He hurriedly stood up, put the sweater in his hand on the sofa, and walked hurriedly in front of him.
"Let's go." Cheng Jiahua stretched out a hand and wanted to pull her hand. He quickly avoided it, which was almost an instinctive reaction, but there was also a fear of being seen and criticized by others. Cheng Jiahua smiled helplessly, turned around and walked towards the main room. He took a chair and placed it beside the large stove, motioned for Hetu to sit down here, took an empty plate, filled it with a number of oranges and candy peanuts, and placed it on the small table next to Hedi. He Tu glanced at him hurriedly, but his face was back to the light, and he couldn't see what his expression was. After putting the fruit bowl away, he returned to the kang table, still sitting on the table and watching TV. He looked at the fruit bowl blankly, pursed his lips, took an orange and peeled it slowly. She quickly took a look at her surroundings, and saw that except for Mu Shi sitting on the chair with her, everyone else was on the kang, they all seemed to think that they were air, no one looked at her, and no one talked to her, only Na Cheng Jiayi, occasionally glanced at her, and a wicked smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
It's just that all this was quickly left behind by Hedi, and her attention was quickly attracted by the sketches playing on the TV, and her emotions seemed to be driven by the people on the screen, and she almost couldn't stop laughing at the funny place. Those gorgeous songs and dances and melodious music all shook the heart of Hetu. Her world is so small, so small that when she sees this, she already feels that the world is very beautiful. While he was immersed in reverie, suddenly the singing and dancing stopped, the music also stopped, and only a few gorgeously dressed people stood together in a row and began to count the countdowns. Cheng Jiayi pulled Cheng Jiaji's arm and shouted that he wanted to go outside to set off firecrackers, Cheng Tielong was not at ease, so he asked Cheng Jiahua to take his younger brothers and sisters. Cheng Jiahua happily agreed, but when he walked by Hedi's side, he reached out and grabbed her arm. Hedi's face turned red all of a sudden, and she didn't even dare to look at the faces of her parents-in-law, so she was pulled out of the door. Cheng Jiayi had already taken the lead, quickly turning on the lights in the courtyard, temporarily illuminating a small piece of darkness. He Tu stood not far away, hiding himself in the darkness, watching them ignite excitedly, and running away, covering his ears and screaming excitedly. Seeing this scene, Hetu suddenly remembered that Heyi had come back, and they had played like this before, but it was themselves who lit the firecrackers at that time, and they had happily integrated into the game. Only now, she suddenly felt that the fun of this kind of game had left her, and even if she regained her joyful appearance at the time, how awkward she thought about it seemed to be very unorthodox. I don't know when her mentality changed to this, obviously she was just a teenager, but her mentality was mature as if she was in her thirties.
