Chapter 36 Getting Along

The two chatted for a while, and Zhao Shengrui looked at the sky outside. It was slowly getting dark, so he prepared to go back. He was afraid that staying here so late would be bad for Miss Xiao's reputation.

"I'll go back first and come to see you tomorrow," Zhao Shengrui said to Tang Yue.

Tang Yue could only politely ask, "Do you want to have dinner before going back?" "No, it's too late. It will be bad for your reputation if you stay," Zhao Shengrui refused.

Tang Yue was a little touched, and quickly gave the watch she bought from the supply and marketing cooperative to her: "I bought this for you, I don't know if you like it."

Zhao Shengrui was a little surprised and a little touched. He didn't expect that the girl also prepared a gift for him: "Thank you, I like anything from you."

Tang Yue was very happy to see that she liked it and gave her the coat she bought: "Go back quickly, it's getting dark soon and the way back is too far, so be sure to pay attention to safety on the road."

"You must be careful when you are alone at home, and lock the doors and windows. I will come to see you tomorrow." Zhao Shengrui was reluctant to leave Miss Xiao's house, but he also knew that it would not be good for Miss Xiao to stay any longer.

"I understand, let's go back."

After sending Zhao Shengrui to the door, Tang Yue watched him slowly walk away.

I returned home, closed the yard, and went back to the living room to sit on a stool. I looked at the seat where Zhao Shengrui had just sat and the backpack he had carried back, and was stunned for a while.

Thinking that the chickens in the backyard had not been fed for a day, I quickly grabbed a handful of vegetable leaves and went to the backyard to feed the chickens.

Hearing a knock on the door from the front yard, she thought it must be Uncle Li delivering the boxes, so she went to the front yard and opened the door, "Uncle Li, come in, I guessed it was you", "Tang Zhiqing, there are a lot of boxes today, almost 200", "Uncle Li, the more the better, if you make more during this period, you may need more than a thousand", Tang Yue hoped that Uncle Li could make as many as possible.

"Okay, no problem. It's winter now, so how many do we need?"

"Uncle Li, I can't tell you the exact number because I need it all the time. You can keep making it. I'll cover how much you need."

Tang Yue is not afraid of not being able to sell too much. As long as her products are tried, she will not be afraid of not being able to sell them.

When Uncle Li heard that they had taken care of all of them, he was even happier: "Okay, then I'll continue working on it. Count them, there are 180 in total."

After Tang Yue counted the items, she paid Uncle Li the money and sent him away. When she returned to the living room and saw the backpack, she thought of the things Zhao Shengrui had bought. She picked up the backpack, went into the bedroom, took out the things and put them on the kang.

Looking at the things on the kang and thinking of Zhao Shengrui, Tang Yue felt sweet in her heart. She put the things in order and put the White Rabbit Toffees, Snow Cream and two woolen coats in the kang cabinet. She opened the box and looked at the watch. It was indeed very beautiful. It was all diamonds. Although they were broken diamonds, they were also very good. She put the watch on the dressing table in the space. The remaining two pieces of cloth were also very beautiful, with good patterns. She was thinking about what to do with them, and finally put them in the cabinet.

Here, Zhao Shengrui returned to his residence, took out the watch and coat that Miss Xiao gave him, and grinned foolishly, thinking of calling home tomorrow to tell them, but now it was too late and the post office was closed. Miss Xiao bought such expensive things and he didn't know if she had any money on her. It seemed that Miss Xiao was the type who didn't want to take advantage of others, so he left her more money before leaving, for fear that Miss Xiao would be wronged because she had no money.

Although they had just met, Zhao Shengrui felt as if they had known each other for a long time. For some reason, his heart beat very fast when he saw her.

Zhao Shengrui felt that he would be very happy with Yueyue accompanying him for the rest of his life.

Zhao Shengrui was thinking about Tang Yue. He was too excited and fell asleep at dawn. He woke up not long after sleeping. In the army, he was used to getting up on time. After washing up, he thought about going to the post office to call home and tell them that his parents would be very happy. He didn't know if the post office was open yet. Later, he was too excited and just went for a run.

Tang Yue was also tossing and turning, thinking about Zhao Shengrui's family, and wondering if they could get along well.

Tang Yue thought about Zhao Shengrui's face, it was really as if he looked according to her preferences. When she saw his face, she was embarrassed to say that he had even thought of the name of his future child.

I didn't fall asleep until midnight, and didn't get up until eight o'clock the next day. I thought that Zhao Shengrui would come over later, and I would definitely have to invite him to have dinner here. I forgot to bring some meat back yesterday, so I would only be able to kill a chicken with the bacon.

After brushing her teeth and washing her face, Tang Yue ate a steamed bun casually, entered the space from the bedroom, took the bacon, and went out. She didn't stay in the space for long, and didn't even look at the dried peppers and vegetables drying in the space.

When I returned to the bedroom, thinking about the chickens in the backyard, I quickly took out the vegetable leaves from the space and went to the backyard to feed the chickens first. Thinking that Zhao Shengrui would come over soon, I didn't enter the space. It was just the right time to take out the sweater to knit. I only knitted a section last time, so now it's a good time to knit slowly.

When Tang Yue was knitting a sweater, Zhao Shengrui went to the post office to call home. After the call was connected, it was Zhao Shengrui's mother who answered the phone, "Who is it?"

"Mom, it's me."

"It's Shengrui. Didn't you go to see your comrades? Why are you calling me at this time? What's the urgent matter?"

"Mom, I want to tell you something. I have a girlfriend," Zhao Shengrui said happily to his mother.

"Really? How about the girl? Is she pretty? I, your mother, like to see beautiful things. You'd better get married soon and give me a beautiful granddaughter." When Zhao's mother heard her son talking about his girlfriend, she was also excited. Although she already had a daughter-in-law and eight grandsons, she was even happier that her son had found a partner. It is said that the emperor loves the eldest son and the people love the youngest son. Zhao's mother is also a face control. It's not that her son is not good-looking. Her sons are all upright and honest, like their fathers. But her son is so handsome and looks so much like herself. He is also the youngest in the family, so Zhao's mother loves her son especially.

"Mom, Miss You is pretty, but a little shy." Zhao Shengrui felt a little embarrassed when talking about this, after all, he was eight years older than Miss You.

"How old are you? You can't bully others." When Zhao's mother heard that Miss Xiao was still very old, she was afraid that her son would make a mistake and bully others, otherwise how could Miss Xiao fall in love with an old man.

"I will be 17 years old after the New Year," Zhao Shengrui touched his nose.

When Zhao's mother heard what Miss Xiao said, she was afraid that her son would make a mistake. "Don't bully Miss Xiao, or I'll punish you when you come back. I haven't met that Miss Xiao and her mother. What impression do they have of you?"

"Mom, don't be anxious, let me tell you slowly."

"Then why don't you just tell me now, stop dithering," Zhao's mother was impatient, and there was a sense of swiftness and resolution.

"Miss Xiao's name is Tang Yue. She is an educated youth who came here to work in the countryside. Her mother used to be in the army. After she died in the line of duty, she signed up to go to the countryside," Zhao Shengrui said, feeling a little uncomfortable. "Miss Xiao went to the countryside this year and has been here for a few months. She has adapted well. I wanted to introduce her to a job, but she didn't want to. She just wanted to stay there and I couldn't persuade her."

"Is that so? Since she doesn't want to, forget it. Miss Xiao is also pitiful. You have to be nice to her. Don't discuss with Miss Xiao when to settle down. We can't bully her just because she doesn't have a mother." Although Zhao's mother was confident in her son's character, she was afraid that people would gossip if she didn't settle down quickly in this era. How could a young lady like Xiao bear it then?

Zhao Shengrui also wanted to settle down earlier, but he was afraid of scaring Miss Xiao, so he didn't say, "I haven't told her about this yet. I won't be here for two days before I have to go back to the army. I'll discuss it with her and bring her back during the holidays next year to show you and settle the deal."

"Okay, just know it in your heart. You must explain it to the girl. I'm not irresponsible. Don't let others think you are just playing around." Zhao's mother was afraid that her silly son wouldn't be able to explain himself clearly. After all, he had never been in a relationship and didn't know if he could coax a girl.

"I know. I'm going there hoping to marry that girl and not make her sad. I'll go see her later. After all, she's not familiar with me yet, and I want to get to know her better." What Zhao Shengrui said was from his heart. He finally fell in love with a girl, and he would definitely take good care of her.

"Then don't go there empty-handed," Zhao's mother warned.

"I know. Don't worry. I'll hang up if there's nothing else to do. I have to go to Yueyue's house later." Zhao Shengrui said to Zhao's mother helplessly, as if in his mother's eyes the child would never grow up.

"Okay, I'm fine. I'll talk to you when your dad comes back. When you two decide on the wedding date, tell me. I still have to prepare the betrothal gifts. I can't just be perfunctory about it because there's no one at home." Mother Zhao was so happy that she hung up the phone quickly, thinking about what to prepare and send to Miss Xiao.

After Zhao Shengrui hung up the phone and paid the money, he prepared to go buy something for Miss 께. Thinking about what Miss 께 didn't like in particular at the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday, he planned to go to Heiwan to take a look. Moreover, he should go to Miss 께's house for dinner today, so he had to buy some more dishes. He walked towards Heiwan while thinking about what to buy.

Tang Yue didn't know what Zhao Shengrui was thinking of buying for her. She was knitting a sweater and thinking about Zhao Shengrui while knitting. Although she didn't know him yet, she thought that the talents trained by the army should not have bad character, and she liked his face.

Tang Yue blushed as she thought about it, but Zhao Shengrui would be returning to the army in two days, and she didn't know when they would meet next time. Should she prepare something for her? Seeing that she was knitting a sweater, she thought about mailing it to her, and preparing some delicious food for her to eat on the way.
