"What do you think?"

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. I already knew Zhou Kuiruo's conditions in my heart, but Chun Tao was pretending to be stupid and didn't want to ask anymore. "Forget it."

Zhou Kuiruo grabbed the spring peach who wanted to run and didn't let her pretend to be stupid. "You know my conditions, right? Roundhouse. I was admitted, and I got into the round house, how about it? ”

"That's... No..."Chun Tao thought about the reason for refusing, but before she could say it, she was interrupted.

"Actually, it's already difficult to be admitted to Xiucai, and if you want to get the gluttony fee, you have to be a student, which is even more difficult."

Chun Tao pulled out her hand vigorously, but she still had no intention of agreeing.

Zhou Kuiruo thought for a while and then continued: "Moreover, the time for the county exam is February next year, which is very short, and I may not be able to prepare." ”

After listening to Zhou Kuiruo's words, Chun Tao became more and more entangled. It's just that the tangled question has been changed, whether you want Zhou Kuiruo to be admitted to Xiucai.

"You can't just keep putting it off and not keeping your promises, right?"

Don't say I forgot, this is my own promise, give a time limit, and you can force yourself! "Good!"

"Besides..."Chun Tao suddenly agreed, Zhou Kuiruo was stunned for a while, and suddenly laughed and asked, "You... You promised? ”

"Hmm!" Chun Tao somehow didn't dare to look directly at Zhou Kuiruo, fled to the bed, took off her coat and covered the quilt.

Looking at Chun Tao, who was suddenly shy, thinking of the conditions she promised, Zhou Kuiruo covered his mouth and laughed.

What a laugh! What's so funny, it's annoying. I didn't hurry up to read the book, I was still laughing here, thinking about the round house, the round house, the round house all day long, why did I agree? Forget it, the exchange conditions I promised must be fulfilled no matter what! I can lie, but I can't be untrustworthy.

Chun Tao hid in the quilt for a while and regretted it for a while to comfort herself, and felt more and more that Zhou Kuiruo's laughter was harsh.

After a while, Zhou Kuiruo's laughter stopped, and the room returned to silence, and then the sound of flipping through the book sounded.

Chun Tao couldn't fall asleep tossing and turning on the bed, and Zhou Kuiruo sat at the desk and kept looking at the books, very serious. After a long time, Zhou Kuiruo blew out the candle and went to bed to get ready for bed.

"Haven't slept yet?"

Chun Tao closed her eyes tightly and didn't dare to speak. "I know you didn't sleep, go to sleep! It's late! ”

Chun Tao still didn't speak, and after waiting for a while, she didn't hear Zhou Kuiruo's voice.

Chun Tao tentatively opened one eye and met Zhou Kuiruo's eyes, so frightened that she immediately closed it again.

Zhou Kuiruo smiled and stroked Chun Tao's hair, and his tone was full of smiles. "You slept? Then even if I sleep with you in my arms, you shouldn't know? ”

Chun Tao still closed her eyes and didn't move, so Zhou Kui took her into his arms.

"I... I didn't sleep! Chun Tao didn't dare to pretend anymore, tore Zhou Kuiruo's hand away, turned over, and turned his back to him.

"Don't bother you, go to sleep!" Zhou Kuiruo stopped teasing Chun Tao, closed his eyes and fell asleep happily.

However, the spring peach on the side was not so comfortable, there was something in his heart, there was someone behind him, Zhou Gong didn't look for it, and stayed up until dawn.

After breakfast, Chun Tao washed with well water to keep himself awake.

"It's autumn, and it's still washed in cold water." Aunt Zhou saw it and wanted to stop it, but Chun Tao didn't stop, and when Aunt Zhou walked to her side, she only had time to hand over the handkerchief.

"It's fine."

"You're already cold, so you should pay more attention to it on weekdays." Aunt Zhou snatched the handkerchief and carefully wiped the water droplets on Chun Tao's hair.

"I don't have to wring out a handkerchief to wash it, so my hair is covered with water."

Although Chun Tao likes this feeling of being cared for, she is still afraid of Aunt Zhou nagging her like this. "I'm going to boil water and cook vegetables."

"Running so fast." After Chun Tao finished speaking, she ran away, there were still water droplets in her hair, and Aunt Zhou shouted from afar behind her. "I haven't dried my hair yet!"

After boiling two full pots of water, Chun Tao sat on a small stool and began to wash the baby cabbage and the older cowpeas.

"Do so much?" Aunt Zhou came in to bring water to drink, and saw two large pots of vegetables.

"It's dried, not much."

Aunt Zhou rolled up her sleeves, moved a small stool, and sat down to help wash. "That mother will help wash it, and we will both chatter."

"Hmm!" Helping to wash spring peaches will not refuse, but how to nag this nag!

"The day of getting married in March, is it decided!"

"Hmmm! Spring will begin next year. ”

"Before, the Lamei family was preparing to recruit the levy, but I didn't expect that it would be this girl in March who got married first."

"Yes! I didn't expect it to be so fast! "If it weren't for wanting to leave the previous place, Chun Tao wouldn't have married so early.

"In the blink of an eye, it's been half a year since you got married!"

Chun Tao thought about it, it was indeed almost half a year. "Hmm!"

"Think about when you got married, I really wronged you. Nothing. ”

"Not aggrieved. That kind of thing happened at the time, and you're willing to let me marry in, I... I'm grateful. ”

"What are you talking about, after you came to our house, this day! It's getting better and better day by day, and it's all your credit. ”

"No... No. Chun Tao didn't know how to talk, so she concentrated on washing the dishes.

"Ah~" After washing the vegetables, Aunt Zhou shouted softly when she got up, holding her waist, and seemed to be very uncomfortable.

"Are you alright?" Chun Tao put down the vegetable basket in her hand and helped Aunt Zhou out of the stove room.

"It's okay, it's just that I've been bending over for too long. Just wait a while, you can get busy! Aunt Zhou patted Chun Tao's hand and asked her to leave.

Chun Tao was still not at ease, so she asked again. "Are you really okay?"

"Really, it'll be fine in a while, go ahead!"

Seeing that Aunt Zhou really didn't have anything wrong, Chun Tao rubbed for a while before going out.

"Ahh The water is boiling. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the water in the pot was boiling, and Chun Tao hurriedly poured the cleaned vegetables into it.

After the vegetables are cooked, the spring peaches are fished out to the bamboo sieve, brought to the backyard and hung on the bamboo poles prepared before to dry.

Put it in a ventilated place, and the weather is good for three or four days.

"It's good to have a big house." Chun Tao sighed at the benefits of a big house while drying vegetables.

After drying the vegetables, I collected the bamboo sieve spring peaches and cleaned the fallen leaves on the ground in the backyard.

"Stop sweeping, come and eat." Spring peach swept and swept, and before I knew it, it was noon.

Chun Tao put down the broom and patted the dust on her body. "Just come."

Chun Tao washed her hands and sat down at the table, Aunt Zhou handed her chopsticks and asked, "Are you tired?" ”

"Not tired."

"Then after eating, let's turn over the open space in front of here, dig up those dead trees, and plant some vegetables!"

"But in autumn, what other vegetables can be planted?"

"It's... Mother doesn't know. "Aunt Zhou has never planted vegetables, and she thinks it is more convenient and cost-effective to propose planting vegetables. On weekdays, in addition to feeding the chickens, there is also some work to do.

"Then I, ask Brother Wang tomorrow morning, he will come to deliver food tomorrow."

"Okay, we'll clean up after dinner."

Chun Tao rummaged through the front yard and backyard, not knowing what she was looking for. "Chun Tao, what are you doing here?"

"Looking for a hoe, do you have it at home?"

"Don't you have it at home?" Aunt Zhou asked Chun Tao rhetorically, making her freeze in place and smile bitterly.

"Possibly!" However, Chun Tao turned over for an hour and only found a small hoe to plant flowers, and could not dig the tree at all. In the end, I went to Lamei's house and borrowed two hoes.

Until Zhou Kuiruo came back in the evening, the two of them had not finished turning over the ground. In the end, Zhou Kuiruo felt sorry for the two of them and cooked some noodles. After eating, I helped clean up the vacant lot.
