Chapter 54

"Take it off!" Shen Yuntang leaned against the door, not daring to go in, as if the room was some kind of dangerous place.
"If you give it to me, it's mine." Cheng Yeran called him from inside the house: "Come in, what are you afraid of? If you don't come in, I'll go out to look for you."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuntang quickly opened the door and went in. He was afraid that Cheng Yeran would come out and be seen by the neighbors. One side of their yard was a wooden fence with large gaps. The neighbors could see everything clearly if they stood in the yard. If Aunt Li saw this, it would be known to the whole village.
The first thing Shen Yuntang did after entering the room was to blow out the oil lamp, but tonight was the fifteenth day of the lunar month and the moon was very bright, so he could still see everything clearly!
"Take it off quickly!" Shen Yuntang looked at him wearing his small bellyband. If he wore it, it would fit him perfectly, but it seemed too small for Cheng Yeran. In the past few months, Cheng Yeran had been pulling the mill, farming, chopping wood and fetching water. His figure was much better than when he first traveled through time. The bellyband made him look like a bib.
"Do you want to wear it?" Cheng Yeran asked him, "If you want to wear it, I will take it off."
Shen Yuntang was about to reach out to pull him down, but when he heard this, his hand stopped in mid-air.
"If you don't wear it, then I will. Next time, ask mom to make me a bigger one. This one is too small and I can't wear it." Cheng Yeran said as he was about to lie down.
"No! You are not allowed to let your mother make it for you." Shen Yuntang really couldn't stand it. She was really afraid that he would get used to it and wear it every day.
During this period of time, Cheng Yeran only wore underwear when sleeping, which was enough to make Shen Yuntang unbearable. Now Cheng Yeran was wearing a bellyband on the upper body and "indecent pants" on the lower body. Shen Yuntang didn't dare to look him in the face.
He gritted his teeth and pulled off the bellyband on Cheng Yeran, "This was made for me by my mother. If you want to wear it, make it yourself."
He originally wanted to throw it away directly, but he was afraid that Cheng Yeran would pick it up and wear it, or tell his mother about it next time he went home. Cheng Yeran is very good at acting like a spoiled child. What if Cheng Yeran acted like a spoiled child and begged his mother to make him a large-sized bellyband? It would not only be Cheng Yeran's face that would be embarrassed, but his own as well. He would forget about surviving in this village and would immediately pack his bags and run away from home.
"I'll wear it. It's okay for me to wear it." Shen Yuntang made up his mind and put on the bellyband.
He wore it when he was a child, but never wore it again. The material his mother chose was soft, but the embroidery on it rubbed his skin and was a little itchy, and it happened to be in that position, which made him very uncomfortable.
After he changed his clothes reluctantly, he quickly got into bed. He didn't dare to look back at Cheng Yeran's reaction. He didn't notice that Cheng Yeran was staring at him.
Before covering himself with the quilt, Cheng Yeran's eyes never left Shen Yuntang.
Shen Yuntang changed her clothes with her back to him. From his angle, he couldn't see the front, but only the back tied up with several bags. The red color set off her skin tone, making it look even whiter. The curve of her waist looked even more graceful, and it seemed as if one hand could hold her waist, and the dimples on her waist were so beautiful that one couldn't take his eyes off them.
So after Shen Yuntang covered himself with the quilt, his hand reached out as if he was sleepwalking and lifted up the quilt.
Shen Yuntang turned to look at him in confusion and met those staring eyes.
It was too obvious, there was no illusion, that look was as if it wanted to eat him.
What his mother gave him was a bellyband, not an aphrodisiac, so how could it have such a great effect? Could it be that Cheng Yeran had already had feelings for him, or that Cheng Yeran had always liked me but he didn't know it. I haven't seen Cheng Yeran pay attention to any girl on weekdays. I heard Cheng Yeran say before that he was still unmarried at the age of 25. With his talent, appearance and wealth, it shouldn't be a problem for him to get married, but he has never been married, so I'm afraid he has never taken a fancy to any girl.
If he really likes women, why hasn't he married yet?
He didn't make any move, just looked at Cheng Yeran with his head tilted. Could it be that the only difference between them was a bellyband? It turns out that there was no progress between them and it was because I wasn't working hard enough?
But since Cheng Yeran likes him, why doesn't he work hard instead of working hard on his own?
While he was thinking, Cheng Yeran had already put down the quilt.
Cheng Yeran rubbed his nose and lay down as well, "You, you look better in this dress than I do."
Shen Yuntang: “…”
Shen Yuntang turned over and covered himself with the quilt speechlessly, "I thought you were going to say something."
"Nothing, I didn't want to say anything." Cheng Yeran couldn't calm down, his mind was full of that slender waist.
He pinched the quilt, trying to calm himself down, but the feeling became stronger and stronger, and he couldn't help but want to solve it.
It's not morning yet, and I'm looking at a man's waist, why would I have such a reaction? Am I not a straight man?
Before he traveled through time, he played the role of a diving athlete. The actors who acted with him at that time were all men with good figures and good looks. He had seen many men's waists and had never had any romantic thoughts.
It's not just men's waists, he wouldn't have any thoughts when he saw women's waists. Only Shen Yuntang's waist made him feel something. Could it be that he liked Shen Yuntang?
He regretted why he had teased Shen Yuntang just now and insisted that Shen Yuntang wear the bellyband. Now he was feeling uncomfortable.
Shen Yuntang pinched the quilt, feeling uncomfortable and unable to sleep. The night was very quiet. He heard Cheng Yeran tossing and turning, seemingly unable to sleep either. What was he worried about?
After a while, Shen Yuntang heard Cheng Yeran get up. He wanted to ask him where he was going, but he closed his mouth and pretended to be asleep.
Cheng Yeran entered the woodshed, which was quiet and secluded, where he could do whatever he wanted.
After he sat down, he took out his phone, turned on the screen, and stroked the beautiful face on the wallpaper with his fingers...
…
The next morning, Shen Yuntang couldn't bear it any longer, so he quickly took off the annoying bellyband and put it in the bottom of the box.
He was afraid that Cheng Yeran would snatch it away and put it on again, but fortunately Cheng Yeran didn't say anything, and neither of them brought up the topic again.
But Cheng Yeran's eyes would uncontrollably glance at Shen Yuntang. Is he thinking about his feelings for Shen Yuntang?
Yuanbao arrived early. He was the same as he was yesterday, dressed neatly and smiling brightly. It was hard to imagine that his life was so miserable and pitiful.
"Cousin, what should I do now?" Yuanbao asked Cheng Yeran actively.
"I'll go out and buy a donkey later. You stay at home with your sister-in-law and sell dried tofu. Don't let anyone sell on credit." Cheng Yeran gave him a bag of noodles and a bundle of vegetables. "Go home and cook for yourself. I'll give you food. I
Talk about
We thought about it and decided that it was too tiring for your sister-in-law to cook for three people. ”
"I can cook for three people, I'm not tired." Yuanbao said positively, "I want to share the burden with my sister-in-law, so she doesn't need to pay me extra for cooking."
"But I only want to eat the food cooked by your sister-in-law. The food cooked by others is not to my taste." After Cheng Yeran said this, he looked at Shen Yuntang affectionately. Shen Yuntang ignored him and turned to do other things.
Yuan Bao got goose bumps all over his body because of his corny words. He was still young and didn't understand the feelings of adults, but he was not tactless. He accepted the food given by Cheng Yeran and said, "It's too much. I can't eat so much by myself."
"You are at the age of growth, eat more and grow taller." Cheng Yeran raised his hand and rubbed his head. "If it's not enough, ask me for more. I warn you, don't be embarrassed to ask, otherwise I will be angry with you."
Yuanbao's parents died when he was a child, and he was raised by his grandmother. Later, his grandmother fell ill and needed money for treatment. He borrowed money from all his relatives and neighbors, but not only did he not get any money, but he was also looked down upon by many people. In the end, he had no choice but to sell his house and land, and finally he was left with only one acre of land and a broken thatched house. This year, he suffered a natural disaster and he could hardly survive. He wanted to sell both the land and the house and find a job in the city.
He came to see his cousin with a hopeful mentality. He had always heard from villagers that his cousin was prone to going crazy and would scold everyone when he was crazy. He was prepared to be scolded, but he didn't expect his cousin to be so nice. He was so moved that he burst into tears.
Cheng Yeran was frightened by him. "I am most afraid of children crying. What have I done to you? Why are you crying? If someone sees you, the villagers will gossip about me beating a child."
"I was so moved that I cried." Yuan Bao wiped his tears and told him everything he had just thought. "I will definitely repay my cousin's kindness in the future. From now on, you will be my closest relative."
"I didn't expect you to be such a sensible kid. Don't cry, just think that I empathize with you. My life experience is similar to yours, so it's my duty to help you. I have cheered myself up again, so you can too." Cheng Yeran was talking about the original owner's life experience. Besides being lazy, the original owner was also very pitiful. He didn't know where the original owner had gone, so he would temporarily help the original owner take care of her cousin.
Early in the morning, everyone who came to buy tofu saw Yuanbao coming to help. The news that the Cheng family was looking for help spread throughout the village. Many people came to ask Shen Yuntang if he was short of people. They could also come to help. They were taller and stronger than Yuanbao and could do more work.
Shen Yuntang told them that he couldn't make the decision and would wait until he asked Cheng Yeran.
Even after he said this, the villagers still didn't give up. They surrounded him and asked him to say some good words to Cheng Yeran.
Shen Yuntang was very annoyed, but he couldn't drive them away. It was not until Cheng Yeran came back with a handsome donkey that the crowd dispersed and ran to surround Cheng Yeran to recommend themselves. When several villagers recommended themselves, they insisted on adding that they were better than Yuanbao and asked Cheng Yeran to drive away the skinny child.
