Chapter 125 My son is really good at coaxing me!

Half an hour later, Jiang Xia walked out of the department store with 13,775.55 yuan.

Zhou's father and his son Zhou Chengxin supported each other and followed behind the couple.

They had never seen so much unity in their lives. They were both so weak at the knees that they pretended nothing had happened.

They didn't understand why Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia were so calm, as if they had 1.7 yuan in their pockets.

Jiang Xia felt that it was not safe to keep the money at home. In the past two days, Zhou's mother checked three times before going to bed to see if the gate was closed, and she did not dare to go out during the day.

She said, "How about we go to the bank and open an account, deposit money in it, and then take it out when we need it?"

Father Zhou heard this and said, "This is safer, but it's too troublesome to go to the city to get money every time you need it."

Zhou Chenglei also had this plan. It was not safe to keep the money at home. "Go back to the town to open an account at the credit union. The town is closer."

There is only one bank in the town, the Rural Credit Union.

"Then let's open it when we get back to town." The Internet was not well developed at that time, and it was not possible to withdraw money across banks. I really had to find a bank close to home.

So the family hurried back to town on their bicycles to open an account.

However, it couldn't be much faster, because Jiang Xia fell asleep again. It was just past one or two in the afternoon, wasn't it time for a nap?

Besides, it was boring to sit at the back of the bicycle, and Zhou Chenglei rode steadily, so she fell asleep accidentally.

When Zhou Chenglei realized that Jiang Xia was asleep, he slowed down and signaled his father and elder brother to go back first.

How could Zhou's father and Zhou Chengxin agree? Jiang Xia was carrying a huge sum of money! What if he lost it? So the two of them rode their bicycles behind him at a moderate speed.

Zhou Chengxin admired Zhou Chenglei so much that he rode his bike slowly under the scorching sun, and was reluctant to wake up Jiang Xia.

His dad too!

I thought there was absolutely nothing wrong with this and was smiling as if I had found money.

Halfway, they met Wen Wan.

Wen Wan also came here by bicycle this time and was now stopping by the roadside to rest. She felt like she was about to get heatstroke.

After finishing the water, I felt hot and thirsty.

The sun was too strong, and Wen Wan followed Jiang Xia's example and wrapped herself tightly. She wanted to take it off, but she didn't dare to.

She did a lot of farm work, but her skin was still whiter than that of most people. She was considered naturally beautiful, but not as beautiful as Jiang Xia. She was a shade darker than Jiang Xia. She thought that Jiang Xia, who was so fair, was afraid of the sun, so she didn't want to take off her clothes.

Wen Wan held her breath and wanted to crush Jiang Xia in every way.

Just when I was hesitating whether to take off my hat and sleeves, I saw Zhou Chenglei and his friends riding bicycles approaching from afar.

Wen Wan didn’t want to deal with Zhou Chenglei anymore, but she was really too thirsty!

If I don't drink some water, I feel like I'm going to die.

Zhou Chenglei saw someone in front of him, but Wen Wan was wrapped tightly, so he couldn't recognize her and was about to pass by.

Unexpectedly, when they approached, the other party stretched out his hand to stop them and shouted: "Brother Zhou! Uncle Yongfu! Brother Zhou!"

Then Jiang Xia was woken up by her again!

Zhou Chenglei: “…”

Zhou Chenglei noticed the hand on his waist moving. He stopped the bicycle steadily, squeezed her wrist, and asked, "Are you awake? Do you want some water?"

Jiang Xia had been sleeping with his head on his back. He nodded when he heard that, then he sat up straight and left his head on his back: "Yes."

Zhou's father and Zhou Chengxin also stopped the car.

Wen Wan glanced at Zhou Chenglei, and then looked at Zhou's father: "Uncle Yongfu, I'm so thirsty and feel a little heatstroke. Do you have any water? Can you give me some? I've finished my water. It's too hot."

Zhou's father and Wen's father were classmates in elementary school, so they were old friends. In addition, heat stroke in the hot summer could really kill people. Since they were all in the same production team, it was really difficult to ignore Wen Wan. But as soon as he finished drinking his water, he asked Zhou Chengxin, "Do you have water in your kettle?"

Zhou Chengxin: "I just finished drinking it. Doesn't Lei still have some?"

Zhou Chenglei unscrewed the kettle and handed it to Jiang Xia behind him: "There's not much left. Jiang Xia slept all the way and didn't drink any water. She needs some too. There's a mountain stream not far ahead. Big brother, you can go ahead and fill it up. It's very close, right in front."

Jiang Xia was not like them who grew up in the village, drinking stream water and well water directly without boiling it. Jiang Xia was not used to drinking raw water, and it would easily cause stomachache if she drank it rashly, so the water in the kettle had to be left for her.

Father Zhou said as soon as he heard it: "Yes, there is a mountain stream ahead. Let's go ahead and fill some water and wash our faces. It's too hot!"

Zhou Chengxin immediately said, "Hurry up, I want to wash my face too. It's been too hot along the way. I think there's another typhoon coming."

Father Zhou said to Wen Wan, "Xiao Wan, hurry up and ride your bike and go to the front with us to drink some water."

Wen Wan watched Jiang Xia sip the water and swallowed subconsciously. Her mouth was so dry that there was no saliva at all. She said, "Uncle Yongfu, I can't even ride a bicycle anymore."

Father Zhou frowned, thinking Wen Wan was a bit troublesome, but she was the daughter of his old friend, so he couldn't just ignore her. Heatstroke could be a serious matter, and if he ignored her and something happened, Father Zhou would feel bad, so he said, "Axin, take Xiao Wan to the front to drink some water."

Moreover, Zhou's father is a bit superstitious. He believes that good people will be rewarded and good deeds will bring good fortune.

He is kind-hearted and would not repay evil with kindness, but he would not stand by and watch someone die. Wenwan's expression did look bad.

It was not a problem for Zhou Chengxin to take Wen Wan with him, but Wen Wan also had a bicycle: "What about her bicycle?"

Father Zhou looked at Jiang Xia and said, "Xiao Xia, how about you ride it?"

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Jiang Xia nodded: "Okay."

Then she handed the kettle to Zhou Chenglei.

Zhou Chenglei took it and screwed the lid on it: "Dad, give your bike to Jiang Xia to ride."

Father Zhou immediately said, "Okay! I'll ride Xiaowan's bike. Her bike is bigger, and Xiaoxia might not be used to it."

So Jiang Xia rode back her own women's bicycle, Zhou's father rode Wen Wan's 28-bar bicycle, and Zhou Chengxin took Wen Wan with him. After walking forward for about a few hundred meters, they came across a mountain stream.

They parked their bikes on the side of the road and walked down the path.

Zhou Chenglei asked them to go down first, while he and Jiang Xia watched the bicycles from above.

After the three of them washed their faces and brought up a pot of water, Zhou Chenglei pulled Jiang Xia downstairs.

The mountain stream water was cool. Jiang Xia washed his face and hands and felt refreshed.

After Zhou Chenglei washed his hands and face, he saw a tree nearby with red flowers. He pulled Jiang Xia over, picked a bud that had not yet opened, removed the calyx, and passed the flower to Jiang Xia's mouth: "Take a sip."

Jiang Xia took a sip, his eyes lit up, and he looked surprised: "Sweet! Nectar?"

Zhou Chenglei nodded with a smile in his eyes, knowing that she hadn't eaten it before, "Do you want more?"

"Yes!" Jiang Xia nodded.

Zhou Chenglei turned around and picked them again.

So the three people on the road stood there and watched them, one picking flowers and the other collecting nectar.

Wen Wan had just drunk a whole pot of stream water, washed her hands and face, and felt completely alive. She looked at the two of them with mixed feelings.

Zhou Chenglei is really a good man.

He is capable and good at making money, attentive and caring, and even a little romantic. He is simply an ideal husband candidate.

If only she had been reborn earlier!

Father Zhou smiled as he watched his son pick flowers for his daughter-in-law: My son is really good at coaxing his wife! Today he unlocked a new way of showing affection, and tomorrow he will have a lot of money!

Finally, Zhou Chenglei picked all the buds that were about to open on the tree, and also picked a flower and put it in Jiang Xia's ear.

Jiang Xia was embarrassed, took it down with a smile and glared at him.

Zhou Chenglei smiled, took the flowers she picked, put them on her straw hat, then took her hand and said, "Let's go!"
