"Okay, Mom." Xu Qingzhi responded and walked out to look outside.
The black car turned on its headlights and drove towards her yard. After a while, it stopped at the door of her house.
Uncle Wang got down from the driver's seat and said subconsciously, "Qingzhi, are you still at home?"
"Yeah." Xu Qingzhi nodded, without explaining, and called him into the house: "Uncle Wang, come in and sit for a while. Dinner will take a while."
"Wait a minute, there are two more people." Uncle Wang looked at the back seat of the car. The door was closed. Why weren't they getting out? He called out tentatively, "Shanshan?"
Wen Shanshan was excitedly sending a message to her brother.
When Uncle Wang parked the car just now, she looked outside and recognized her idol at first sight! What a fate! She typed on her phone keyboard and sent a text message to her brother.
"Brother, I guarantee that you will regret not coming to eat this time!"
Wen Siran: “?”
When Wen Shanshan heard Uncle Wang calling her, she turned off her phone and put it in her bag. Of course, meeting her idol was more important, as for news about her brother... forget it!
Wen Shanshan swallowed nervously, picked up her hair, tugged at her clothes, and asked the person next to her, "Aunt Liu, do I look good like this?"
Aunt Liu felt strange. The person standing at the door was a girl, not a handsome guy. What happened to the lady?
"Miss, you are naturally beautiful and always look good," she praised.
Wen Shanshan then opened the car door and got out.
She could hardly hide her excitement and shouted excitedly, "Sister Qingzhi!"
Xu Qingzhi was rarely called so affectionately. Even her younger brother Xu Zijun, when he grew up, called her sister, which was no different from calling her "Xu Qingzhi" directly.
Xu Qingzhi looked over and saw a little girl wearing a white dress and with a bun on her head. She looked very well behaved.
Looks a little familiar.
She thought about it, salesperson in a women's clothing store?
Wen Shanshan noticed the puzzled look from her idol, and quickly explained, "I'm from Kyoto, and I came to Meicheng to have some fun. I had nothing to do those days, and I wanted to experience selling clothes, so I went to see that women's clothing store for a few days."
"Shanshan, do you know Qingzhi?" Uncle Wang asked doubtfully.
It shouldn't be like this. How could these two people have anything in common?
"I know him." Wen Shanshan nodded immediately, but she didn't mention it because of Xu Qingzhi's acting. Since her idol had retired and returned home to farm, it would be very tactless for her to mention the entertainment industry again.
Uncle Wang used to be a workaholic, but he suffered from insomnia and heart problems due to work pressure, and he wanted to resign. His boss found out and gave him an important task, to take care of his son, so that he could rest and adjust. He had no time and no interest in the entertainment industry, so he didn't know Xu Qingzhi had acted in a play, and he just thought it was strange that Shanshan and Qingzhi knew each other.
Wen Shanshan took the initiative to walk over and introduced herself: "Sister Qingzhi, my name is Wen Shanshan, you can call me Shanshan."
"Okay, Shanshan." Xu Qingzhi was not used to being too intimate with outsiders, so he turned to Uncle Wang and said, "Uncle Wang, please come in and sit down. Don't stand."
This is my first time to eat at someone’s house, so I can’t just come empty-handed.
Aunt Liu was holding two boxes of pure milk in her hands. "Little girl, where should I put this milk?"
There were no flowers, fruit baskets, or anything like that in the village, only a small supermarket was open, so when people visited, they would usually give them milk, canned food, Wang Laoji, biscuits, and the like.
Xu Qingzhi saw the milk and said politely, "Just put it by the wall. Sorry for the expense."
Her idol has such good skin, like peeled egg white. What brand of skin care product did she use? It feels very good to the touch. I really want to touch it.
However, although Wen Shanshan thought so, she didn't dare to do it.
After all, the current relationship between the two of them is one-sided, and if she doesn't know her limits, she will be disliked.
Uncle Wang walked into the house and headed for the kitchen, expressing his gratitude to the host for his hard work.
Aunt Liu sat on the chair, not moving or looking around. She had been a nanny in a wealthy family for so many years that she had already developed these rules.
Wen Shanshan followed behind Xu Qingzhi and whispered, "Sister Qingzhi, I sent you a message, but you haven't replied to me."
"Sorry, maybe I didn't notice." Xu Qingzhi said calmly. She had too many WeChat messages before, but she didn't click to read them, thinking it was a waste of time. Maybe Wen Shanshan's message was covered by those messages.
She took out her cell phone, opened WeChat, scrolled down, found it after a long while, and clicked it.
Wen Shanshan was right next to him and could also see Xu Qingzhi's phone. There were too many unread messages on WeChat.
The message she sent was basically buried, no wonder her idol didn't see it.
Wen Shanshan had been feeling disappointed because she hadn't received a reply to the message, but now that she thought that it wasn't intentional, her mood suddenly improved.
Xu Qingzhi patiently read the first unread message sent by Wen Shanshan.
"Sister Qingzhi, thank you for the food."
"Sister Qingzhi, your pakchoy is so delicious, can I buy some?"
"Sister Qingzhi?"
"Wow, I really want to eat bok choy. Can you buy some? No matter how much it costs."
"Today is the fifth day I've wanted to eat bok choy."
"Today is the tenth day that I've been craving for bok choy."
"Today is the Nth day I want to eat bok choy."
After reading the message, Xu Qingzhi raised his eyes and asked her, "Do you want to buy groceries?"
"Yeah, yeah." Wen Shanshan nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Sister Qingzhi..."
Xu Qingzhi was still not used to someone calling her so intimately, so she interrupted, "I'm probably not much older than you. You can call me Qingzhi and I'll call you Shanshan. How about that?"
Wen Shanshan was delighted. He was calling her by her name? Her relationship with her idol had improved. Yay! "Okay, Qingzhi," she said, and then asked, "Do you grow a lot of vegetables? I really love eating that Chinese cabbage. It's so delicious. I'm a carnivore, but I like that Chinese cabbage better than meat. If it's not much, forget it. If you have extra, I'll buy some."
Xu Qingzhi: "I also sell the vegetables I grow to others. The price is 200 yuan per kilogram. If you want to buy them, you can come and pick them in a few days when they are ripe."
Aunt Liu, who heard this, couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Two hundred yuan a pound? Chinese cabbage? This is too expensive."
"I want to buy it! Such delicious vegetables, 200 yuan a pound is very affordable. My dad contacted a high-tech farm abroad before, saying that the vegetables are all natural and pollution-free, taste good and have high nutritional value. They are shipped here by air for 5,000 yuan a pound. They are just like the grass that cows eat, and have no taste at all. My brother vomited after taking a bite and never ate it again." Wen Shanshan raised her hand, like a primary school student rushing to answer the teacher's question, "Qingzhi, I plan to eat the cabbage you planted for the next month."
