Because Li Xin was not feeling well and could not get out of bed to walk, He Beichen brought dinner to her bedside.
With He Beichen around, the dinner at home was quite sumptuous, with rice and meat.
If this had happened before, the Li family would not even dare to think about it!
He Beichen gave a lot of betrothal gifts and also gave her tickets. Zhang Hongmei immediately ran to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a lot of things.
After dinner, it was dark.
There were no entertainment activities in this era, and we had to go to bed as soon as it got dark.
"He Beichen, what are you doing?" Li Xin looked at He Beichen holding the quilt and putting it on the ground, and asked him with some confusion.
"You are sick." He Beichen responded briefly.
He Beichen moved very quickly and had made the bed on the floor in no time, planning to sleep there that night.
Although he just said four words, the unspoken meaning was very clear. He saw that she was sick, so he made her sleep on the floor.
Not only did I give her the bed, but I also allowed her to have a good rest.
It’s not like he doesn’t know how to be gentle and considerate to women!
Li Xin looked at He Beichen's tall body lying on the ground with a somewhat uncomfortable look. In fact, it was a bit difficult for two people to sleep on her small kang.
She withdrew her gaze and listened to the steady and powerful breathing beside her in the darkness. She still felt very safe in this strange world.
…
In the same courtyard, several people from the Li family were still talking in low voices.
"Oh, so He Beichen is the deputy head of the group? Where did you hear that?" Li Jianping looked at Li Xueping in shock.
He only knew that He Beichen was rich, and he didn't ask in detail. Anyway, Li Xin would get married sooner or later, and it would be none of their business after she got married. But if he had known that his position was so high, he should have asked for more betrothal money before!
Damn, what a huge loss!
"I... I also heard what the matchmaker said by accident." Li Xueping made up an excuse.
In fact, she had experienced this a long time ago, but she couldn't tell her family directly, right?
"Is that so..." Li Jianping nodded and muttered to himself after hearing this. Judging from his expression, he was clearly thinking about something in his mind.
*
The next morning, as soon as Li Jianping got up, he urged Zhang Hongmei to prepare breakfast, and to make it a hearty one.
"Xiao He, why are you still carrying a bag? Is that damn girl Li Xin making trouble again?" Li Jianping's face changed suddenly when he saw He Beichen walking out of the room with a bag on his back.
He had a gloomy face, rolled up his sleeves and was about to walk towards Li Xin's room.
"No, uncle. I'm going back to my hometown to pay homage to my parents and will be back in two or three days." He Beichen frowned and stopped Li Jianping. He was a little displeased with Li Jianping's behavior of always teaching the girl a lesson.
"Oh." Li Jianping breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it. Fortunately, he and Li Xin didn't have a quarrel. "Then you should eat breakfast first. A full meal will give you the strength to travel."
Li Jianping immediately pulled him with a warm smile and took him to the main room to have breakfast.
At the same time, he asked Zhang Hongmei to prepare some dry food, and handed the dry food to He Beichen after breakfast.
"Take these dry rations with you on the road. I know your hometown is in Xikou Village. It's quite far away, so please be careful on the road." Li Jianping enthusiastically sent He Beichen all the way to the village entrance.
"Thank you." After expressing their gratitude, He Beichen and Li Jianping hurried away.
He Beichen left early because the journey was long. Li Xin was still sleeping in the house and was completely unaware of his departure.
Bang——
Suddenly a loud noise came from the door.
"?" Li Xin, who was still asleep, was awakened. Although he was still a little confused, he no longer felt groggy like yesterday, and his body temperature had returned to normal.
The medicine that He Beichen brought back from the clinic yesterday was very effective. Her fever has gone down and she rested for the whole day yesterday. However, the aftereffects of her virginity are still there, and her waist and legs are still a little uncomfortable.
"Sleep, sleep, sleep, all you do is sleep! You almost ruined a good family, you know? Fortunately, they didn't hold it against you. If you were broken off the engagement, you might as well hang yourself!" Zhang Hongmei kicked the door open and walked in from outside, cursing. She was annoyed when she saw Li Xin looking like he had just woken up.
"Getting married takes longer than giving birth to a child. What's the use of you?" Even if it is like this,
Li Xin subconsciously glanced at the ground. The man who was sleeping there last night was no longer there, and even the quilt that was spread on the ground last night had been tidied up.
It seems that He Beichen has returned to his hometown to pay homage to his parents, otherwise Zhang Hongmei would not have revealed her true colors.
Li Xin ignored her, got up yawning, put on his clothes and prepared to go out for breakfast.
The original owner was too weak due to long-term malnutrition, and Li Xin had no intention of mistreating himself.
"Li Xin, let me tell you, He Beichen is a soldier, a deputy regiment commander at that. He receives an allowance every month. After he returns to the army, he will definitely send back half of this monthly allowance, and this half will be used for your expenses." Zhang Hongmei followed behind her, chattering on and on.
Although it sounded nice that the money was counted as Li Xin's living expenses, Zhang Hongmei was thinking in her heart that after getting the money, she would save it all, so that she could have a place to marry her son and a dowry for her daughter in the future!
Deputy Head, I heard that the monthly allowance is quite a bit!
He Beichen must have quite a bit of money in his hands as he could easily come up with 1,888 as a betrothal gift.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, can you hear me?" Zhang Hongmei didn't get a response and spoke with an unhappy look on her face.
