Chapter 16: Generous



Pei's mother and Pei Zheng got up even earlier.

Pei's mother was busy in the kitchen while Pei Zheng was chopping wood outside. She went to take a look. Although the man had no feeling in his left fingers, his right hand was strong. With an axe, he could chop down a beast with one blow. He also rode his bicycle one-handed, which didn't affect his daily life at all...

Moreover, the man was shirtless at this time, and his muscles were visible. He was indeed a former soldier. His bulging muscles were full of wild power. He had several abdominal muscles, and the blocks were clearly defined.

Pei Zheng stopped and looked at Qiao Zhiyi who was peeking through the door. Their eyes met and Qiao Zhiyi greeted him with a smile.

Looking at the little girl's flower-like smiling face, Pei Zheng's breathing stagnated, and he realized that he was covered in sweat. Would she want to get close to him?

He continued to chop wood nervously, but his slightly red ears betrayed his current mood.

Qiao Zhiyi just felt that this man was really cold and aloof.

She didn't go in front of others to embarrass herself, but went into the kitchen to help Pei's mother and help light the fire.

Whether in her past life or this life, she had never lived in the countryside, but with yesterday's experience, she was very good at making fire today.

The side dishes for breakfast were also simple: salted duck eggs, seasonal vegetables, and a few pieces of tofu bought while passing by.

The vegetables are grown by ourselves in the vegetable garden behind the house.

The least valuable thing in the countryside is vegetables.

Pei's mother is a hardworking person and often takes care of her own little piece of land.

When he was called to eat, Pei Zheng took his clothes and went to the bathroom to take a cold shower. He came out only after he was clean.

Qiao Zhiyi had already brought the half-sleeping Tangtang down, dressed her, braided her hair, and then fixed it with small hairpins. The little girl smiled beautifully in front of the small mirror.

Well, I was awakened by my own beauty.

After brushing their teeth and washing their faces, the four of them sat down to eat.

After dinner, Pei Zheng prepared to go out to work. Qiao Zhiyi handed him a finger-sized plastic box and said, "There are pills for today in this box. Take them half an hour after dinner."

She bought these herself at a store in the city. Whenever she was sick and needed to take some pills, she would put a day's supply in a small box so that she could carry them with her and not miss the time.

Pei Zheng took the small box from her hand and put it in his pocket. Qiao Zhiyi asked him, "You will be back for acupuncture at noon, right?"

Pei Zheng nodded.

"I wish you good luck in your work." Qiao Zhiyi smiled and saw him to the door.

Her expression was neither frivolous nor shy, her eyes were frank and her words were sincere. She was like the calla lilies swaying by the stream, elegant, graceful and moving.

Pei Zheng's heart was pounding.
