Chapter 140 140 Happy Cooperation
Su Xiao looked at Shang Ziming's hands with some surprise.
The fingers are long and slender with distinct joints, and the fingertips have calluses in several places, yet they are extremely dexterous.
"You wrapped it very well," Su Xiao couldn't help but exclaim.
"You taught me well; this is my first time making one too." Shang Ziming's lips curled slightly.
"What? Your first time?" Su Xiao exclaimed in surprise. "Amazing, amazing. It feels like you can do anything."
I couldn't help but think to myself, "This kind of man seems like nothing can stump him."
Shang Ziming raised an eyebrow. "Your feeling is wrong."
"What?" Su Xiao looked up at him.
I was almost mesmerized by his bright yet deep eyes.
"No one is omnipotent. I cannot bear the pain of pregnancy for my future wife."
Su Xiao was dumbfounded, and quickly lowered her head, muttering, "Uh... well, I guess I don't need to say anything."
"Okay." Shang Ziming looked at her with gentle eyes, but unfortunately she had her head down and didn't see them.
The two of them didn't say anything more, but kept working with their hands, and soon all the rice dumplings were wrapped.
Su Xiao clapped her hands and laughed, "Alright, go boil some water, I'll take care of the cleaning."
Shang Ziming obediently nodded, turned around and went to the stove, added half a pot of water to the stove, and started to light the firewood.
Su Xiao quickly cleaned up the mess, put the zongzi into the nest, and waited for it to cook.
Soon the water boiled, and the unique fragrance of bamboo leaves filled the entire kitchen. Su Xiao couldn't help but swallow.
“Drip, drip.” A bicycle stopped outside the educated youth compound.
The postman parked his car in the drizzle and called out at the top of his lungs, "Shang Ziming, Shu Bowen, Su Xiao, Chen Jing, Lu Xiao, Zhou Da... there are letters and packages for you."
Hearing the commotion, Lu Xiao was the first to rush out.
Fortunately, it's just a light drizzle right now.
Su Xiao and Shang Ziming also heard the commotion. Su Xiao said excitedly, "Let's go take a look too."
As they spoke, the two walked out of the kitchen one after the other. However, Shang Ziming had somehow acquired an umbrella and opened it for them.
Lu Xiao was a capable man; he had already ushered the postman into the pavilion in the courtyard.
The postman took things out of the large bag one by one, and soon Su Xiao received the letter, and Shang Ziming also received a large package.
Su Xiao took the letter and couldn't wait to go back to her room.
I squeezed it; it was a thick envelope. I opened it and saw a handful of small bills.
Su Xiao's eyes flickered slightly. She took out all the small bills, put them aside, and picked up the letter to read it.
After reading the letter in one go, my gaze involuntarily fell on the last ink blot and the line of words next to it.
Su Xiao frowned slightly, a sudden flash of inspiration struck her, and she realized what was going on, then frowned again.
In the original book, there is not much about Huang Feiyan's story; she is only mentioned briefly when describing Su Qiang.
After Su Qiang was released from prison, he was destitute and even received help from a woman. The woman secretly sent things to Su Qiang without the men in her family knowing. When she was caught, she was slapped hard across the face.
The woman's husband further insulted Su Qiang, using extremely vile and degrading language.
After this ordeal, Su Qiang left for distant lands.
Before he left, the woman came to him again, covered in injuries, begging him to take her with him.
Unfortunately, Su Qiang refused. He couldn't even support himself, how could he provide her with a good life?
Su Xiao sighed softly. She originally thought that Huang Feiyan in the book wanted to leave with Su Qiang because she couldn't stand her husband's beatings. Now that she thought about it, it was probably not that simple.
