Looking at Ren Jingxiao's increasingly cold face, everyone realized that they were a bit redundant.
They all left in a swarm, and suddenly there were only two of them left in the backyard.
"Are you tired?" Ren Jingxiao's voice was very soft, even softer than when he usually caught prey.
"I should be the one asking you this. This glass is going to the glass factory in the county, right? What time did you get up in the morning? Why did you come back so soon?" Ning Yuan took a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his head.
"It's not bad. I can walk fast and the mountain roads are short. Open the door and come in. I bought something for you and will bring it to you later."
Taking the handkerchief from his head, Ren Jingxiao felt it was a pity for a grown man like him to use it, so he put it in his pocket.
"Go back and wash it and I'll give it back to you."
Ningxia glared at him, ignored him and opened the door to go into the house.
He turned around, went to the corner, and whistled. Two paws stretched out from the wall, holding a basket.
This is a very good coordination. Ningxia watched secretly from the door.
Ren Jingxiao brought the basket into the house and took out everything without waiting for Ningxia to ask.
A pair of small leather shoes, a bright red silk scarf, two boxes of vanishing cream, a kind of tin-shaped biscuits she had never seen before, a bag of White Rabbit candy, a can of malted milk, a jar of honey, and a large bag of rice.
You wouldn't see the same thing at other people's stores all year round, but he bought them all for her without blinking an eye.
"Do you like it? Keep these for yourself. I'll buy you more when you finish eating. I'll cover the stove this afternoon so you can cook whatever you want."
"I asked around, and I think your family eats rice, right? I bought some rice. If you want noodles, I have some at home, I'll bring it to you."
"I'll make you some soup every two days. I brought you some bacon, so you can add some to your cooking. You can cook, right? How about I cook it and bring it to you every day?"
"And these shoes, try them on to see if they fit. I bought them based on my measurements. And these, they say girls all use them. I wonder if you like them."
As soon as Ren Jingxiao stood up, Ningxia suddenly pounced on him.
He caught her steadily with one hand, holding her and watching her rub against him.
"Why are you so nice to me?"
"Didn't you say it? We are an item!" The word "item" was emphasized a lot.
The two looked at each other and curled their eyes.
"Xia Xia? Xia Xia." After some thought, he said affirmatively.
Ningxia didn't feel comfortable responding to him. After being touched, she felt that she was too bold for just jumping on him.
Ren Jingxiao didn't think anything was wrong; no one had ever taught him how to date. So, Ningxia could do whatever made her happy; whatever she did was right.
After Ren Jingxiao returned to get her tools for the stove, Ningxia finished her meal and went back to work. She had a heavy workload in the afternoon, requiring her to cut more grass than in the morning.
She didn't know that at this moment, everyone in the field was talking about her and Ren Jingxiao's names.
There were expressions of surprise, contempt, disbelief, and so on. If it were a trending topic right now, it would definitely make the headlines.
Some people couldn't understand why the educated youth Ning was attracted to the wild man, and some even made obscene remarks.
Finally, the team leader came out and said, "If you don't work, your work points for the afternoon will be zero." Then everyone hurriedly dispersed.
The captain was also curious! How did these two get together? He felt that Ning Zhiqing was not worthy of Tiewazi.
Unbeknownst to the others, he had once gone to the mountains. Although he nearly lost his life, he clearly saw Tiewazi preparing wild ginseng.
He had also heard that wild ginseng was precious and rare. Back when the mountain folks were still here, they dug up a tattered wild ginseng and sold it to the supply and marketing cooperative for 200 yuan.
That amount of money was something their entire family couldn't earn in a whole year. Besides, Tiewazi was a skilled cook and lived as freely as a bird in the mountains, so he definitely had plenty of money.
He had originally planned to introduce his daughter to him. His daughter was considered very famous in the area. She was in junior high school and her wife was very pampered.
But every time his daughter saw Tiewazi, she was always in a bad mood. Alas! He was still trying to persuade his daughter, but someone else got there first.
It's all his fault. He shouldn't have chosen these educated youth. They are not very good people, but they have good vision. He chose a capable one as soon as he arrived.
Captain Wang regretted it again.
Captain Wang's annoyance didn't affect Ningxia's good mood. After most of the day, she finally filled a basket of grass with the help of the children.
I successfully completed the work points and went back happily.
Ren Jingxiao had already helped her set up the stove. She had taken out the pot in advance, and he had built it to fit the pot perfectly.
We also built a thatched shed so we don’t have to worry about getting wet when it rains.
"The stovetop isn't dry yet. You'll have to wait two days before you can use it. Take the pot off first. Once it's dry, I'll sharpen the edges before using it."
"I've brought you a large jar on my back. I'll fill it with water every morning. I'll also bring you firewood every evening and put it in the empty house next door to yours to prevent it from getting wet in the rain."
He takes everything into consideration. Things that seem difficult in Ningxia are trivial to him.
All the inability to take care of oneself is because someone spoils them.
Ningxia followed Ren Jingxiao like a tail, listening to him chattering without a trace of impatience.
After eating the first few bites in the evening and waiting for Ren Jingxiao to feed her, she felt that she would soon become a fat person.
She wanted to fire alone, so when it was their group's turn, only Cai Xiaoya was left alone.
Finally, everyone discussed it and decided that Chen Yaoyao and Cai Xiaoya would be in the same group. Zhang Yining, not Zhang Kangcheng!
After all, we were all lesbians, and no one wanted to cook alone with a gay man. It wouldn't look good if word got out, and there was someone sitting there supervising.
No one complained, and everyone was happy. Zhang Yining was the happiest, as she no longer had to get up early.
She brought a lot of snacks, enough for her to eat for a month. Her father would send more next month. She could just eat a few bites of the hard-to-swallow food.
Her brother also paid for all the clothes, except for the small ones. Although the living conditions were a little worse, she thought about Brother Hengzheng and realized how much she had suffered for him!
She felt that her life was not easy. When she arrived in Zhang Kangcheng, she felt like she was about to be ripped off. She was given four work points a day: cooking, washing clothes, fetching water, and collecting firewood.
Not only was he busy all the time, but he also had to keep an eye on Xu Hengzheng. He felt that if he didn't think of a solution, he would not be able to hold on any longer.
Now Ning Zhiqing has a girlfriend, and she is someone who is not easy to deal with. It seems that this path is not feasible.
Comparing herself to the other female educated youth, they were not as good as Zhang Yining! He looked down on her, so Xu Hengzheng must have looked down on her even more.
As for the girls in the brigade, he didn't think Xu Hengzheng would be interested in these village girls. Even if he told his uncle, he probably wouldn't take it seriously. The threat from the village girls was too small.
He was lost in thought, yet he still had a bright smile on his face, acting like a good brother with no regrets.
