Maybe it's the season for the seedlings to grow, but this week there is a shortage of water. The sun is particularly strong, and the dragonflies on the roadside have no strength to fly, so they stop on the grass by the river to avoid the shade.
Early on a weekend morning, Chang Sanxi was woken up by her mother, who pulled her by the ear: "Didn't you say you were going to a friend's house? Hurry up and get up. If you're not busy, go on a blind date. Zhang Qiang is the best master in the workshop. He makes more than 50 yuan a month and can eat anywhere."
Chang Sanxi yawned and said, "I'm not bad at all. I'm a team leader at the food factory. I bring home a lot of benefits every month, and I give you a lot of money. Why do you have to marry me?"
Chang Sanxi's mother had just made dumpling soup, and her apron was stained with flour, which was dripping down as she walked. Upon hearing this, she slapped Chang Sanxi on the arm and said, "How dare you say that? Girls and children with worse conditions than you are all working, and you are the only one still staying at home. Don't you know that the neighbors will laugh at you to death?"
"Besides, your sister-in-law is about to give birth. Where will the baby live if you don't make room?"
In the end, there is no place for her at home.
Chang Sanxi put on his clothes feeling aggrieved and went out without even wanting to eat.
Her mother held two boiled eggs in her hand and asked, "What are you doing? No breakfast? How can your stomach handle it?"
Chang Sanxi said angrily: "I'm not hungry, and you don't care whether I live or die."
"Kid, if I don't care about your life or death, who will? You said you wanted to eat boiled eggs yesterday, and I made them for you. You have a bad temper. You ignore me after just a few words. What kind of kid are you? If you don't eat, I will."
Aunt Chang was also very angry. She went back to the room and secretly put the egg under Chang Sanxi's pillow.
My own girl still feels pain.
After walking several hundred meters out of the house, Chang Sanxi's breathing gradually became smoother. Thinking that she couldn't go to someone else's house empty-handed, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some biscuits, canned food and candy. Knowing that there was a poor little girl there, she also bought a few bottles of soda.
After buying things, I went there and it was just past breakfast time.
Chang Sanxi was carrying a lot of things, and the straw rope tied to the cans broke in the middle.
She squatted on the side of the road with her things in her hands, feeling dejected. "What kind of luck is this? I just tied it up fine, and it broke."
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and hugged the thing in advance.
She was afraid of losing the things she had left here, and she was a little overwhelmed by the weight. When she was at a loss, a man's hands reached out from the side: "I'll help you get it."
The man was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt and shorts. He was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He looked a bit serious, but his facial features were very handsome. He was somewhat similar to Xiao Shuisheng.
"You are... Jiang Zao's elder brother, right?"
Xiao Wensheng went out to do some errands in the morning, and when he came back he saw his brother's wife's friend squatting on the side of the road. She didn't live nearby, so she must have come to visit his home.
My sister-in-law also mentioned yesterday that her friend would come. Xiao Wensheng recognized Chang Sanxi and came over to help.
"Well, my name is Xiao Wensheng."
Tsk tsk tsk.
Chang Sanxi’s inner thoughts: Big brother, I know you without any introduction.
Xiao Wensheng, Huo Xiaoman.
That was the protagonist who helped her relieve her boredom and loneliness. The stories in the book were not as exciting as yours.
"My name is Chang Sanxi."
Xiao Wensheng was a man with big hands and long arms, so he easily held everything in his arms: "You go first."
Chang Sanxi was still a little uncomfortable, so he went forward first.
On the weekend, Xiao Shuisheng wanted to wash the sheets and clothes, so he stood by the well to pump water, filled the bucket and poured it into the water tank. The water in the water tank was warm when the sun swept over it at noon, so he used it in the afternoon.
When Chang Sanxi entered the yard, she saw her best friend's man working there.
"Hello, where's Zao'er?"
Jiang Zao was watching TV in the house with roasted melon seeds at hand. There is nothing more pleasant than eating melon seeds and watching TV on the weekend.
Xiao Shuisheng shouted into the room: "Zao'er, your colleague is here."
Jiang Zao and Gu Xiufang heard the sound and came out to pick up Chang Sanxi. Gu Xiufang knew that Chang Sanxi and Jiang Zao were friends, and she was kind to her beloved daughter-in-law, so she went out to greet her enthusiastically.
"Sanxi is here, come in quickly, come on."
Jiang Zao smiled at Chang Sanxi and said, "Come in and sit down. Is it hot?"
Xiao Wensheng followed the three women in and put the things on the coffee table in the living room: "Mom, sister-in-law, this was bought by Chang Sanxi's colleague."
Gu Xiufang then noticed the things on the coffee table, including food and drinks. "Oh my god, why did you buy so many things? You must be exhausted carrying them all the way here. You must have wasted money, girl. Next time you come, don't buy these things. Just come here."
"Auntie likes the hustle and bustle. You little girls are pretty and polite. You must come here more often."
Gu Xiufang pulled Chang Sanxi to sit down and said, "If you want to see it, call someone."
I want to see her wearing a pink dress. Her facial features are a bit like Xiao Wensheng, and you can also find the shadow of Gu Xiufang. She is white and tender because of Jiang Zao. She is very clean because she hasn't gone out to play yet.
Xiangbi looked at Chang Sanxi shyly: "Hello, Auntie."
Seeing Xiangdi and thinking about what she had gone through, Chang Sanxi felt very sad. She sat down next to Xiangdi and hugged him gently: "Come, let Auntie hug you."
"Why are you so good?"
"How old are you?"
"You're so cute!"
Jiang Zao is gentle, but not very talkative.
Chang Sanxi was a bit talkative. She held Xiangbi in her arms and asked her all sorts of questions. Xiangbi quickly became familiar with her and chatted with her incessantly.
There were guests at home, and Xiao Wensheng felt it would be inappropriate for him to go back, so he sat in the living room for a while.
Seeing Xiangbi giggling, he also smiled like a father.
Chang Sanxi looked up inadvertently, saw Xiao Wensheng's smile, nodded to him, and continued to talk to Xiangdi.
Jiang Zao and Gu Xiufang went outside to cut watermelons. The watermelons had been soaked in well water overnight. The watermelons with red soil and black seeds were icy cold and exuded the fragrance of watermelon.
Jiang Zao handed Xiao Shuisheng a piece and asked, "Try it and see if it's sweet."
Xiao Shuisheng took a bite of the tip of the watermelon, holding the watermelon in one hand and supporting his waist with the other: "It's sweet, and watermelon is still the best way to cool down."
He lowered his head and put his forehead in front of Jiang Zao: "Look, I'm sweating."
"Wife, please wipe it for me."
Jiang Zao looked around to make sure there was no one around, then took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his head. "Sanxi is a guest at home, so please behave yourself and show some of your professorial demeanor."
Xiao Shuisheng suppressed a smirk and said, "I see. Comrade Jiang Zao, whom I'm not very familiar with."
Jiang Zao: “…”
To be honest, sometimes I really want to hit someone. I wonder if anyone can understand.
Xiao Shuisheng danced freely without going into her forbidden zone. After eating the watermelon and washing his hands, he went into the house with Jiang Zao.
Inside the house, Chang Sanxi and Xiangdi were chatting about comic books. Xiangdi nestled in Chang Sanxi's lap, her little face flushed, and she expressed her love in a baby voice: "Auntie Sanxi, you are so nice!"
"I want to see you!"
Chang Sanxi was about to say something when his stomach growled. He blushed in embarrassment and lowered his head, not daring to look at anyone.
