Chapter 27: Help me to cover up and get a proper status sooner or later...
After a while, Chen Ziyou, Ai Jia and others also came. Du Ningyou sniffed and seemed to smell the scent of fried chicken.
Turning around, I saw Chen Ziyou holding a bag, and the fragrance was coming from it.
Chen Ziyou walked up to the three of them, raised his hand and waved it in front of them, saying with a sly expression, "Look what this is?"
Du Ningyou's eyes lit up. "Did Sister Ai make this fried chicken? It smells so good. Can I have some?"
"You can try it. We won't charge you more. Chicken wings are 5 yuan each and chicken legs are 10 yuan each."
She thought it wasn't expensive, and was about to pay when Ai Jia came over and explained with a smile, "No need to pay, I brought it here especially for everyone to eat."
Chen Ziyou looked disappointed. "Sister Ai, if you had come a little later, I would have made a fortune. Their group is so rich, I would be unworthy of their status as wealthy people if I didn't take some money."
Having said that, I still opened the bag and handed it to them.
Zhou Yangze and Du Ningyou each took a chicken drumstick and turned to Ai Jia and said, "Thank you, Sister Ai~"
Lu Mingxiao also followed their lead, "Thank you, Sister Ai~"
Not long after, Su Qiang and the other two also arrived, tacitly bringing their homemade spicy potatoes. The guests enthusiastically shared their snacks. At this time, as the iconic opening music sounded, the movie began to play.
"A long time ago, there was a monkey king named Sun Wukong..."
As soon as these words came out, a child in front of him pointed at the screen excitedly and said, "Monkey Brother, it's Monkey Brother!"
The kid next to me shushed, "Be quiet, watch the movie quietly."
The child immediately lowered his voice and said, "Oh——"
The movie being shown was "The Monkey King: Hero is Back", which was suitable for all ages and was both entertaining and educational. After the movie started, people gathered around one after another, and the village entrance was soon crowded with people.
On this cool summer evening, some people are fanning themselves with palm-leaf fans and looking relaxed, some are chatting in low voices in groups of three or five, some are sharing fruits they have just picked, and some young couples are looking at each other with affection but keeping a restrained distance... Everything is so vivid, filled with the breath of life that is not found in city cinemas.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content and watching a wonderful movie, they strolled back slowly. When they were almost home, Du Ningyou felt something was wrong. When she got home and went into the bathroom, she found that she had her period.
Fortunately, she was well prepared and brought some daily necessities with her when she came to record the show.
After she cleaned herself up and took a shower, she came out holding a small basin for washing underwear in one hand and supporting her sore waist with the other, walking slowly.
Zhou Yangze noticed that something was wrong with her from the beginning. He took the basin from her hand and asked with concern, "Are you feeling unwell?"
"I'm fine, it's just that the relatives are here."
"ah?"
"On those few days every month when girls have sex."
"Oh, do you want me to make you some brown sugar water?"
"You still understand this."
“Isn’t this basic common sense?”
"Haha, then please trouble Brother Aze to cook a bowl for me."
Zhou Yangze didn't look at the clothes in the basin, but just asked: "Do you need me to help you hang them up?"
"It's okay, I can do it myself."
"Then I'll go to the kitchen and make you some sugar water."
Zhou Yangze asked the old lady for some brown sugar. The old lady knew what was going on as soon as she heard it and gave him some red dates and wolfberries.
When he finished cooking and brought it into the room, he saw Du Ningyou curled up on the bed, with a frown on his face, looking very uncomfortable.
He sat by the bed, holding the bowl in one hand and helping the person up with the other, "Get up and drink something. I've let it cool down for a while, and it's just the right temperature now."
After Du Ningyou stood up, she leaned weakly in his arms and drank some brown sugar water from his hand. Her stomach felt a little better, but she still felt uncomfortable.
There was no table nearby, so Zhou Yangze placed the empty bowl on the floor at the foot of the bed. Looking at the distressed Du Ningyou, he didn't know what to do. He asked with some concern, "Is there any way to make you feel better?"
Du Ningyou turned his head slightly when he heard this, and suddenly grabbed his big hand and felt it, which was warm and full of energy and blood. So he said to him, "Go take a shower first, and then come back."
"oh."
After a while, Zhou Yangze came back, wearing pajamas and with his hair blown dry.
The room was very quiet. The person on the bed remained in the same position as before leaving, seemingly already asleep. He tiptoed closer to check on the situation, but just as he approached the bed, Du Ningyou moved and whispered, "You're back."
Then she half-opened her eyes, took his hand and put it on her stomach, "Come up here and cover it for me like this."
"oh."
Zhou Yangze adjusted his position behind her and lay on his side, with his big hand slightly opened and placed on her belly, with the girl's soft palm resting on the back of his hand.
He was very careful and didn't dare to move. He always felt that Du Ningyou was like a fragile porcelain doll that needed to be carefully protected and held in his palm.
The tungsten filament lamp in the room was on, and all kinds of mosquitoes were flying around the lamp. The two of them were lying quietly on the bed, about a palm's distance between them. Zhou Yangze put one hand on her belly and the other hand under his head, staring at the back of the head of the person in front of him.
After a while, he stood up slightly and observed her condition. She seemed to be feeling better and no longer frowned as before.
He breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but think jokingly that after the program was recorded, he would have to ask Du Ningyou for a proper status. He couldn't keep living in this unjust and insecure way.
At this moment, Du Ningyou didn't have the energy to think so much. Her period had already made her feel listless. When she finally felt better, she felt sleepy and gradually fell asleep.
An unknown amount of time had passed before Zhou Yangze felt that the person in front of him seemed to have fallen asleep. He tentatively pulled out the hand that was covering his stomach. Although he encountered a little resistance, it was still smooth.
He pulled Da Huang over and put him in her arms, then pulled the quilt over to cover her carefully. After doing all this, Zhou Yangze stood by the bed and observed for a while, then turned off the bedroom light and walked out quietly.
On the other side, Lu Mingxiao was a little surprised to see the person coming back, and joked: "I thought you wouldn't come back tonight."
Zhou Yangze didn't respond. He yawned and went straight to bed. He was extremely sleepy now, but he had to get up to record the show tomorrow.
Lu Mingxiao didn't mind. He also needed to rest, so he climbed onto the bed and squeezed the person next to him. Then he adjusted himself to a comfortable position, reached out to turn off the light, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
Du Ningyou felt much better after a deep night's sleep, though she still felt a little uncomfortable after the first day. After changing her clothes and leaving the bedroom, she saw Zhou Yangze doing some simple activities in the yard. So she leaned against the door and stared at him, her eyes filled with tenderness.
In fact, there was a moment last night when I was vaguely thinking that I seemed to be unable to leave this person. I habitually relied on him and subconsciously approached him. The first thing I did after getting up was to look for him.
Before, she might have wanted to observe him more, after all, Zhou Shao hadn't been a good match, and she was also a person who shied away from trouble. But as they spent more time together, and heard from others about his care and favoritism, it would be a lie to say she wasn't moved.
A voice in my heart is becoming clearer and clearer, saying: It is this person, and only this person, and they will have a good life together.
Zhou Yangze turned around and saw Du Ningyou at the door. He immediately came over and asked, "Are you feeling better? Why don't you take a rest at home today?"
"No, I'm much better now. Today's filming didn't involve much exercise, so it's okay."
"Okay then, if you feel uncomfortable, just tell me."
"good."
Zhou Yangze felt that there seemed to be something different in the way Du Ningyou looked at him. There seemed to be a little more sticky feeling, and there was also a gentle light in it.
He shifted his gaze uncomfortably, then looked back at me. "I cooked brown sugar eggs for you in the kitchen. Grandma taught me how to do that. Eat them while they're hot after you wash up."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Aze."
“…”The strange feeling became stronger and stronger.
Lu Mingxiao had other work to do and had to leave today. Before leaving, he said to the two of them, "Don't miss me too much. I'll be here for the last episode."
Zhou Yangze said unhappily, "No one misses you. If you don't leave now, you'll miss your flight."
"How heartless."
Then Lu Mingxiao looked at Du Ningyou and said, "I heard that this time you're doing a variety show plus charity, and the Youran Foundation is also involved. Sister Ningyou, give me the contact information of the person in charge. I'll ask my agent to donate some books, supplies, etc."
"Okay, thank you, future actor Lu."
"Haha, keep a low profile, there are cameras."
Du Ningyou gave him the contact information of the project leader, and then Lu Mingxiao dragged his suitcase away, leaving the two of them to start preparing for today's recording...
In this way, the guests record the competitive part of the variety show during the day, and the program team arranges various entertainment activities at night. After recording for a few days, they will have a day off. They will clean up their respective houses and visit each other. Their days are comfortable and full of various little surprises.
Time flies, and more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
"Today's recording is over, everyone can go back and eat."
As soon as the director said this, the guests went home happily. During this period, Zhou Yangze and Du Ningyou won a small electric scooter and rode it directly.
Du Ningyou sat in the back seat, hugging Zhou Yangze's waist, and suddenly sighed: "Time flies so fast, there is only one last topic left."
"Do you suddenly feel reluctant to leave this place?"
"Yes, during this period, I learned to grow vegetables with grandma, picked mushrooms with Brother Liu, went to Sister Qiang's house to pet the cat, and went to Sister Ai's house to eat and drink... I felt that every day was so happy."
"Weren't your previous days happy? I feel like you lived a very comfortable life every day."
"Haha, it's also happy, but it's different. I always feel that Shiqiao Village has more of a sense of life and is more down-to-earth."
"Haha, we can buy a piece of land here and build a small house, and then come and stay here from time to time."
“That’s fine.”
…
They rode home chatting as the sun was still shining brightly. Many households were drying this year's corn and rice in front of their doors. But as they rode, they suddenly realized that although the sun was high in the sky, many families had already begun to hurriedly collect their crops.
When they passed by Brother Liu's house, they stopped the car and asked in confusion: "Brother Liu, isn't the sun still very strong? Why don't you bask in it for a while?"
"It's going to rain heavily soon. Don't stay outside, both of you. Go home quickly."
"Is this true?"
"Trust my grandfather's experience, this day is about to change."
"Oh, okay."
They didn't stay any longer and hurried home. Sure enough, the sun was soon covered by dark clouds, and raindrops as big as beans fell as soon as they got home. Fortunately, they got back quickly. They couldn't help but sigh at the magic of the life experience of the older generation.
