Chapter 5: Little Sister-in-law
The two courtyards of Li Jitang's house are small three-storey western-style houses with five bays, the outer walls are covered with white tiles, and the roofs are red glazed tiles, which are in stark contrast to the low brick bungalows around them, highlighting the owner's transcendent status in the village.
Li Jitang's courtyard was in front, and when Lu Xiaole came, the courtyard door was open, and Li Jitang's wife, Han Xiuying, was pushing a "Mulan" motorcycle and walked out of the courtyard gate.
Han Xiuying is forty-five or sixteen years old, with short hair, white and clean, although her figure is a little fat, her facial features are very upright, and she has a rich face.
is different from Li Jitang's strength, Han Xiuying is relatively close to the people, and her popularity among the masses is good, sometimes Hou Li Jitang offends people because of his strength, and Han Xiuying goes to compensate for it.
Seeing Lu Xiaole pedaling on three wheels and pulling a cart of watermelons over, Han Xiuying stopped and said enthusiastically:
"Yo, Xiaole is here."
"Second aunt, third aunt Chunhua said that the second uncle is going to the town and asked me to send twenty big watermelons."
According to the seniority in the village, Lu Xiaole should call Li Jitang's second uncle and Han Xiuying's second aunt, instead of calling the village chief.
"Your second uncle is in the brick factory, and he will be back in a while, so you can put the watermelon at the gate. Xiaole, I won't help you unload, I have to go to work quickly. ”
"Second aunt, these five watermelons are for your family."
"Ouch, Xiaole, you are too polite, your family is not easy, I can't ask for nothing, I'll give you money."
Han Xiuying said that she was about to pay for it, but Lu Xiaole hurriedly stopped her.
"Second aunt, you're going to see the outside. It's all home-grown, and there's no money. Go to work, I'll put these five watermelons in the yard for you. ”
"Then I'm bothering you."
Han Xiuying said, riding on the motorcycle, about to drive, suddenly thought of something, turned to Lu Xiaole and said:
"Xiaole, if you trouble me again, you can send two watermelons to your sister-in-law."
Han Xiuying's "your sister-in-law" refers to her daughter-in-law Qin Ziyi, according to the seniority in the village, Lu Xiaole should call Qin Ziyi's sister-in-law.
Lu Xiaole was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Okay! Second aunt, go to work. ”
Han Xiuying rode away on a motorcycle, and the gate was not locked---- the folk customs here were simple, theft rarely happened, and no one dared to steal Li Jitang's home.
Lu Xiaole heard what Han Xiuying said, Li Jitang will come back in a while, and he is not in a hurry to unload the twenty gifted watermelons, it is better to wait for Li Jitang to come and load them directly into Li Jitang's car.
Lu Xiaole put the three watermelons on the table in the courtyard of Li Jitang's house, and then walked to the back yard with two watermelons in his hand.
The heavy yellow rosewood gate was closed, as was a small door on top.
"My sister-in-law may not have gotten up yet. I don't know if Changchun is at home? ”
Thinking of Changchun sleeping with Qin Ziyi in his arms, Lu Xiaole felt a little jealous in his heart.
Lu Xiaole tapped on the door and raised his voice and shouted:
"Brother Changchun, Brother Changchun----"
A sweet and gentle voice came from the courtyard:
"Changchun is not at home. Who? ”
Hearing that voice, Lu Xiaole's heart beat faster: "Sister-in-law, it's me, Xiaole!"
"Oh, it's Brother Xiaole, wait a minute, I'll open the door."
The sound was accompanied by footsteps, and soon after the door, the sound of a small door opening was heard inside.
Before the door opened, from the crack in the door, Lu Xiaole's nose smelled a faint fragrance, which smelled very good.
Lu Xiaole didn't know what kind of fragrance it was, but he knew that this kind of fragrance of perfume was only used by women in the city.
The small door opened, and behind it stood a beautiful woman.
This woman is twenty-one or twelve years old, wearing a lilac tulle dress, her long black hair is casually scattered, her complexion is as white as snow, and she has a mysterious and elegant temperament.
Under a pair of black and slender eyebrows, there are two beautiful Danfeng eyes, and there is always a faint haze in the eyes, as if they contain a pool of autumn water; Small red lips, smiling rather than smiling.
The body underneath the lilac tulle dress is delicately undulating to form a graceful curve, and a pair of soft leather slippers, also lilac, are stepping on the feet.
This woman has the breath of a young girl and the plump charm of a young woman, forming a kind of seductive force that makes people panic.
She is Qin Ziyi, the daughter-in-law of the village chief!
As soon as Lu Xiaole saw Qin Ziyi, he felt his heart speed increase, he had difficulty breathing, and he was speechless for a while, such a beautiful woman would only appear on TV and in novels, and now she was standing alive in front of him.
Qin Ziyi looked at Lu Xiaole with a pair of wonderful eyes, and smiled:
"Brother Xiaole, is there something wrong with you?"
Her smile is gentle and dignified, but it has indescribable charm and seduction.
Lu Xiaole calmed down his excitement and hurriedly raised the watermelon in his hand:
"Sister-in-law, the second aunt asked me to send you these two watermelons."
Qin Ziyi: "Thank you." Brother Xiaole, give it to me. ”
Lu Xiaole: "This watermelon is a bit heavy, I'll put it in the house for you." ”
Qin Ziyi: "Okay, come in." ”
Qin Ziyi dodged away and let Lu Xiaole in.
Lu Xiaole held a watermelon in each hand and entered the yard.
Qin Ziyi didn't close the door, so she followed over---- she was to avoid suspicion, so as not to gossip about lonely men and widows behind closed doors.
Although the size and layout of the two courtyards built by Li Jitang are the same, the furnishings inside are different.
In the courtyard of Li Jitang, there are rockeries and ponds, which are full of the swinging style of rural nouveau riche.
And Qin Ziyi's yard was rearranged after she got married, and all kinds of flowers and plants were planted in the yard, and the environment was elegant and quiet.
There is also a grape trellis in the courtyard, there is a swing under the grape trellis, and there is a small rattan table next to it, on which there are fruits and a few books, you can imagine Qin Ziyi sitting on the swing under the grape trellis, tasting the fruit and reading the novel.
Seeing the grape trellis and swing, Lu Xiaole's mind was not properly associated with a big battle between Ximenqing and Pan Jinlian in the Golden Bottle Plum.
When Lu Xiaole just walked to the door of the living room, Qin Ziyi walked a few steps quickly, crossed Lu Xiaole, and arrived at the door first, opened the screen window door, and let Lu Xiaole go in first.
The living room is rich and warm, with a few soft leather sofas, and a few tasteful paintings hanging on the walls, all framed by picture frames, with landscapes and figures, but it is not at all the taste of rural people, only urban cultural people have such taste.
The most conspicuous thing is that there is also a 24-inch large color TV on the wall, which is the only two large color TVs in the village, and only Li Jitang and his son can afford it.
Under the color TV, there is also a state-of-the-art DVD player, next to which are several discs, that is, Hong Kong shootout movies, Hollywood action movies, and a few romance movies---- but there are no love action movies, and even if there are, they will not be on the surface.
The whole living room is rich and full of feminine warmth, and there is a faint sweet fragrance in the air.
Smelling this sweet fragrance, Lu Xiaole's mind flashed with some fragrant and beautiful imagination.
