Song Shengsheng held his waist tightly the whole time. The cold wind whistled past his ears, and his coat was filled with wind. He felt cold all over, even to his toes.
Riding a motorcycle in the middle of winter is really crazy.
Jiang Yiyu rode his bike all the way to Mingyuan. When the bike stopped, Song Shengsheng was a little stunned by the cold. She sniffed, looked at Jiang Yiyu in a daze, and let him help her take off her helmet.
Jiang Yiyu hung his helmet on the handlebars, rubbed his palms together to warm them, and then covered her face with his hands: "How is it? Is it good? Do you feel particularly free?"
Song Shengsheng wanted to say something, but she couldn't find the words. She just sniffed again: "If only it were summer now." She looked through Jiang Yiyu at the closed gate of Mingyuan Garden: "Why did you bring me here?"
"Of course you're here for something!" Jiang Yiyu took her cold hand, put it in the pocket of his down jacket, took her to the door of Mingyuan, and knocked on it.
After two or three minutes, the door opened from the inside. It was Luo Jian, the security guard they had hired just last month. He had a coat draped over his shoulders and yawned. "Oh, I finally got you two here, but I'm so sleepy."
"Have you arranged everything I want?" Jiang Yiyu patted Luo Jian's shoulder and asked.
Luo Jian nodded and said with a smile, "I've already set up the backyard after lunch today. Now I'm just waiting for you to bring your wife."
Luo Jian followed Song Shengsheng and Jiang Yiyu as they walked inside. "Sir, Madam, are you two really not going to hire another security guard? This place is too big, and I'm the only one guarding it. It's okay during the day, but at night, it's really creepy. I'm a coward, and I'm really scared."
Song Shengsheng asked, "Do you have any recommendations?"
Luo Jiandao said, "Hey, to be honest, there really is one! I have a fellow villager who's also been looking for a job recently. He's a strong man, and when he was at home, he was known for his boldness. There was even a fortune teller in our area who said that he had a lot of yang energy when she saw him. That's why in my area, no matter what weddings or funerals we had, we were happy to ask him for help, and he was also very enthusiastic..."
Jiang Yiyu glanced at Luo Jian, who was speaking excitedly, and said in a serious tone, "Whose house are you talking about? I haven't even moved into my house yet!"
Luo Jian quickly shut up after hearing this. He smiled sheepishly and said, "Sir, you know I'm not very good at talking, but I really don't have any bad intentions. If you and your wife are free someday, I'd like to introduce you to my fellow countryman."
Jiang Yiyu paused. Just as he was about to speak, Song Shengsheng pinched his hand. Song Shengsheng smiled and said, "Thank you for your help."
Luo Jian tugged at his coat, which was about to slide off his shoulders, and nodded with a simple smile: "No trouble, no trouble!"
Jiang Yiyu said, "Okay, we're almost there. We don't need you here anymore. Go back to sleep."
"How can I do that? Are you leaving soon, sir and madam? If not, I'll go clean up the room for you and boil some water. The repairs here were just finished not long ago, and the heating hasn't been installed yet. If we don't prepare it in advance, it will be cold to sleep at night."
"Then go quickly." Jiang Yiyu sighed impatiently.
"Hey, I'll leave now. I'll call you when I'm done packing."
"Need not!"
"Oh, that's fine too. Then come call me when you're done with the romance!"
Jiang Yiyu sighed again, and Song Shengsheng laughed and said, "Okay, Lao Luo, don't worry about it. Go back. It's very cold outside."
"Okay! I wish you two a happy romance!"
Jiang Yiyu waved his hand at him: "Go, go, go! Go! You keep nagging me so much that I'm fed up with you."
After Lao Luo left, Song Shengsheng leaned on Jiang Yiyu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Lao Luo is actually quite smart."
"Who says he isn't? I was here just two days ago, and he didn't tell me he wanted to recommend a fellow villager to work with him. But when he saw you today, he immediately told me all this at once. It's obvious that he also knows who is the head of the household and who makes the decisions in our family."
"That's quite perceptive."
"Yes, he's almost a demon. He's the only employee in this garden right now, and he doesn't even take me seriously. Once we hire more people tomorrow, I'm afraid the news that I don't have much status in the family will spread to everyone."
"You want to save face?"
Jiang Yiyu smiled widely, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead: "Don't worry about face, worry about your wife. My wife's happiness is the most important thing."
Song Shengsheng smiled and sighed, "Alright, why all the sweet talk? Take me to see the surprise you've prepared. It's too cold out here. If I freeze any longer, I'll definitely catch a cold tomorrow!"
In the backyard, Song Shengsheng asked the construction team to build a small viewing pavilion in the middle of the yard according to the design drawings given by the designer. Jiang Yiyu led her up to the pavilion, pressed her shoulders and sat down on the stone chair. Song Shengsheng was a little resistant because the stone chair was also very cold, but in order to cooperate with Jiang Yiyu, she almost vacated and sat down on the edge of the stone chair.
Jiang Yiyu took out his phone, glanced at it, then looked up at the night sky in the distance. He repeated this three or four times before finally putting it down and smiling, "Honey, it's about to begin!"
As Song Shengsheng followed his gaze, the entire plum garden behind her lit up with tiny lights. She was stunned for a moment, then turned back to see that the branches seemed to be filled with stars. "Is this your gift to me?" Song Shengsheng stood up and took a few steps towards the plum garden. "I thought you were going to set off some fireworks for me."
Jiang Yiyu followed her and put his arm around her shoulders. "I'd like to, too, but we're not allowed to set off fireworks here. I also want to take you to see the stars, but we can't go far over the weekend. The weather hasn't been good lately, and there aren't any stars in the sky. So I can only make a piece of starlight for you. It's a little rough, so don't mind."
