A wedding banquet that was ruined was reopened in a lively manner thanks to Duan Xichuan's mediation with both firmness and flexibility, and the tacit cooperation of Shen Xiaobei and the newlyweds.
During the meal, Mrs. Ge and Shen Xiaobei and the others were chatting and laughing while eating.
Praising her for being such a young girl who could actually cook a great banquet, it really opened her eyes today even though she is already old.
The war was turned into peace, the happy event turned into a funeral and then turned back into a happy event. Shen Xiaobei and Fan Huifang were very relieved and no longer had to worry about Deng Yuliang having a hard time in Liu Juan's house.
They can also go home with a relaxed mood and spend a happy Mid-Autumn Festival night.
That night, Shen Xiaobei secretly recited someone's name, recalled someone's appearance, and fell asleep with a sweet face.
Although her heart was already stirred, Shen Xiaobei was not willing to be a simple love-brained person. When it came to making money in business, she didn't want to fish for three days and dry the net for two days.
Early the next morning, she got up swiftly at the first crow of the rooster and started making cold dishes in the kitchen.
After finishing the work, she rode her bicycle to the commune to set up her stall, her heart full of anticipation, looking forward to meeting Gao Hongmian soon.
Then, I can pretend to chat casually with her and listen to Duan Xichuan's story.
"Xiaobei, good morning!"
Shen Xiaobei had just arrived at the stall and was busy placing the cold dishes in the boxes on the table one by one when he heard Gao Hongmian's voice.
Gao Hongmian came earlier than usual today.
"Sister Hongmian, good morning!"
While Shen Xiaobei was busy preparing his own cold dishes, he looked up and responded to Gao Hongmian, and found that it was not Duan Donglin who came to pick up Gao Hongmian on a bicycle today.
It turned out to be Duan Xichuan.
He didn't wear a military uniform today, but a white shirt, which made him look clean and refreshing.
Oh my god, Shen Xiaobei was not mentally prepared to meet him at this time!
At this moment, she was still wearing an apron that was stained with some oil. Moreover, she was busy with work in the morning, so her hair was not combed particularly neatly.
This, this...
A trace of panic flashed across Shen Xiaobei's face. He quickly lowered his head to smooth out a strand of hair that was scattered on his face and put it behind his ear.
However, it only took her two or three seconds to calm herself down.
The simple look she showed when she came to the stall in the morning is part of her usual appearance, part of her true self. She appreciates and likes this kind of her!
Why are you afraid that Duan Xichuan won’t like you and will have a bad impression of you when he sees you?
If he felt disgusted when he saw her true self and thought she was unattractive, then she didn't want to think about such a man anymore.
This shows that they are not a good match for each other.
"morning."
When Shen Xiaobei raised her head, Duan Xichuan had already parked his bicycle in front of her stall and greeted her with a smile.
She then smiled and said "Good morning" to him.
"Xiaobei, this is Beihai's second brother, Xichuan. He came back yesterday at noon. You should have seen him at Liu Juan's house, right?"
"Yes, Sister Hongmian, we did meet yesterday at Sister-in-law Liu Juan's house."
"I only found out yesterday afternoon that you were at Liu Juan's house for a wedding banquet yesterday afternoon. Xiaobei, why didn't you come look for me after the banquet?"
"Although our home is a little far from Liu Juan's, we are in the same production team. You can find out where we are by asking others!"
"I'm sorry, Sister Hongmian. I wanted to come see you, too. But I came here with two friends, and it wouldn't be nice to leave them behind. Next time I visit Sister Liu Juan, I'll definitely come to see you!"
"You said it, but you must keep your word!"
"Well, I must keep my word."
While the two women were chatting, Duan Xichuan was helping Gao Hongmian set up a vegetable stall and a children's clothing stall. His military habit made him set up his stalls like soldiers in formation.
All the vegetables on the stall are clearly classified and neatly stacked, with the spacing between each vegetable being the same.
There is also a children's clothing stall. All the clothes are hung in the same direction on the drying racks, and the clothes are categorized neatly and clearly.
"Wow, Xichuan, your stall is even neater and prettier than my sister-in-law's. You really deserve to be a soldier!"
"Haha, sister-in-law, you're too kind. Sister-in-law, I'll go to the county town first."
"Hey, ride slower!"
"I understand, sister-in-law."
After helping Gao Hongmian set up the stall and exchanging pleasantries with her, Duan Xichuan smiled and nodded at Shen Xiaobei, then rode his bicycle towards the county town.
Shen Xiaobei looked at his back riding a bicycle with some nostalgia for a few seconds, then reluctantly looked away.
"Sister Hongmian, is Second Brother Beihai going to the county town?"
"Yes, my parents-in-law remember how hard he works in the army and don't want him to have to work and earn work points every time he comes home from vacation, so they deliberately asked him to go to the county town to buy some things for the family today."
"Haha, I'll also ask him to go to the county town to buy some fabrics and needles and thread for me, so that I don't have to ask for leave with Donglin again."
"Oh, I see! Then how long will he stay this time?"
"He said he would be back in the army after a few days."
"oh!"
I will be leaving after a few days. Shen Xiaobei has begun to feel a little melancholy. He doesn't know whether he will come to send Gao Hongmian out to set up a stall tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?
If not, wouldn't she have no chance to meet Duan Xichuan more often?
By the way, there is also Duan Beihai!
How could I forget about this little brat?
It would be great if she could find a way to get Duan Beihai to bring Duan Xichuan to the river in the evening.
