Zhou Shixun said nothing in the end and ate in silence. It might be that Sheng Anning was different today. After the meal, he reminded her, "There will be a big fair in the next town tomorrow. There will be a bus at the gate of the family compound at 10 o'clock in the morning to take everyone there."
After saying that, he remembered that Sheng An Ning disliked the rusticity of the village, so how could she be interested in this kind of market? Without waiting for Sheng An Ning's response, he quietly cleaned up the dishes and went to wash them.
Sheng An Ning sat by the stove with nothing to do. It was already dark outside the window, and the sound of the neighbor next door scolding the child could be heard clearly.
It was dark and cold outside, so almost everyone stayed at home.
But apart from a dim light bulb, there was no TV, tape recorder, or even a radio in the house. How could we get through such a long night?
Sheng Anning watched Zhou Shixun hunched over the chopping board washing dishes. Because the room was a little hot due to the fire, he wore a white shirt tied at his waist, which made his broad shoulders and narrow waist particularly obvious.
Especially when you bend over to wash dishes, your body moves slightly and the strength of your waist is more obvious.
It's still quite pleasing to the eyes.
Sheng An Ning was thinking a little boredly, her thoughts gradually became unhealthy, and she quickly slapped her forehead. She couldn't even solve the problem of food and clothing now, so what was she still thinking about?
There were footsteps outside, followed by a man shouting, "Is the Captain home?"
Zhou Shixun shook the water off his hands and went to open the door. Sheng Anning also stood up curiously. Someone actually came to visit?
It was Wang Wengang, husband of Zhang Yimei from next door, who came over with his wife and child, followed by female doctor Xiao Yan.
As soon as Wang Wen entered the room, he kept thanking Zhou Shixun: "Captain, thanks to you for saving Shanzi, I really don't know how to thank you. This tiger woman can't even take care of a child at home, and she can even let the child choke."
Zhang Yimei followed suit and thanked him: "Captain, thank you."
Zhou Shixun frowned, somewhat disliking this feeling. After all, the person who saved Shanzi was Sheng An Ning. No matter how Sheng An Ning behaved in normal times, it was indeed she who saved the child today.
She should be the one to thank.
Before he could speak, Xiao Yan also took over the conversation: "Yes, it was too dangerous today. If it weren't for Brother Zhou at home, Shanzi would be in great danger."
Then he smiled at Zhang Yimei and said, "If you ask me, Brother Zhou is Shanzi's benefactor. Shanzi should recognize Brother Zhou as his godfather."
Sheng An Ning stood aside and watched these people come in as if she didn't see her, especially Xiao Yan. It was so cold at noon that she wore a white shirt for beauty. Now she wore a pink sweater. Her pigtails hung on her shoulders, looking gentle and quiet.
That's just a bitch-like thing to say.
Zhou Shixun frowned even tighter, took a step back, turned his head and looked at Sheng An Ning: "It was An Ning who saved the child at noon. If you want to thank someone, you should thank her."
Wang Wengang obviously didn't know the truth of the matter. He was a little surprised after hearing it. How could Sheng An Ning save people!
They have heard me swearing and throwing tantrums at home every day.
But since Zhou Shixun said so, Wang Wengang quickly put on a smile and thanked Sheng Anning: "Thank you so much, sister-in-law. I was shocked when I heard it when I just came back."
Sheng An Ning glanced at Zhang Yimei and Xiao Yan calmly: "You're welcome, but your wife is really fierce. Such a young child can easily choke if you don't take good care of him. She even gave him a whole dried date to eat."
Zhang Yimei's face changed, and even Wang Wengang looked embarrassed. He did come to express his sincere gratitude, but he didn't expect Sheng An Ning to say that.
What should he do? He can’t just turn around and scold his wife.
Xiao Yan glanced at Zhou Shixun, frowned and said, "Sister-in-law, you can't say that. You have never given birth to a child, so you must not know that there will inevitably be times when you are careless when raising a child."
Sheng Anning smiled and said, "Dr. Xiao, have you ever had a child?"
Xiao Yan's face flushed the moment she was scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
In this day and age, you can’t joke like this with a grown girl.
Zhou Shixun just looked at Sheng Anning deeply. He felt that she was a different person during the day, but now it seems that it was just his illusion?
He was unreasonable before, but now he is unreasonable and his mouth is sharper than a knife when he opens his mouth.
But he actually felt that Sheng An Ning did nothing wrong this time!
He frowned and looked at Wang Wengang: "It's okay, as long as the child is okay, it's getting late, you should go back first."
Zhang Yimei didn't dare to say anything because her husband was around, and quickly put the bag of walnuts and red dates on the bench next to her.
Xiao Yan handed the lunch box she had been holding to Zhou Shixun: "Brother Zhou, I made dumplings tonight, and I packed some for you right after they came out of the pot."
Sheng An Ning now understood that this female doctor named Xiao Yan probably liked Zhou Shixun, and knowing that his wife was not in a good relationship, she planned to take advantage of him.
Isn’t it said that people in this era are conservative in their thinking?
Look at this girl Xiao Yan, she has a very open mind.
What a shameless person!
Sheng An Ning stared at the lunch box in Xiao Yan's hand for a few seconds, then looked up at Zhou Shixun meaningfully, sneered, turned back to the house and slammed the door.
Zhou Shixun felt inexplicably guilty after being looked at by Sheng Anning, and rejected Xiao Yan very straightforwardly: "No need, we have already had dinner, it's getting late, you should go back quickly."
No matter how thick-skinned Xiao Yan was, she was too embarrassed to hand over the lunch box, and left with Wang Wengang and his wife with a red face.
Zhou Shixun closed the door, looked at the tightly closed door of the inner room, felt a pain in his brow, and turned around to continue washing the dishes.
…
Sheng An Ning was not angry, she just wanted to disgust Xiao Yan. Anyway, she was planning to divorce Zhou Shixun, so she would not object to anyone showing kindness to Zhou Shixun.
But it’s not Xiao Yan. I simply don’t like her.
Sheng An Ning originally thought that she might not be able to sleep that night, but she didn't expect that after lying down, she felt sad because of homesickness, and later had to accept reality.
After tossing and turning for a few times, I actually slept until dawn.
The sound of roosters crowing and people talking coming and going made Sheng An Ning confused for a long time before she realized that she had traveled through time.
I rubbed my eyes, put on my clothes and went out. Zhou Shixun was no longer in the room, and the little girl's quilt was neatly folded.
The fire was burning brightly, with a kettle on top and a lunch box on the lid of the kettle, steaming hot.
Sheng An Ning stared at the steaming water for a while before going to get some water to wash up.
After washing my face, I came back and carefully took the lunch box down with a towel and placed it on the table.
When I opened the lunch box lid, I found a steamed bun and an egg inside, with some pickled vegetable shreds on the edge of the lunch box.
Sheng An Ning looked through the cupboards yesterday and found out that there were no eggs in this house, and there were no eggs in Mantou's house either.
So, Zhou Shixun went to the office to get breakfast and brought it back, and the fire in the house was lit before he left because he didn't know how to light a fire yesterday.
I was afraid that the steamed buns would get cold, so I kept them hot on the stove.
Sheng An Ning has never been a pretentious person, but now she feels a little touched.
In this strange world, I feel very touched to be taken care of by someone.
I ate my eggs slowly, planning to finish my breakfast and go watch the big show Zhou Shixun mentioned. I need to quickly integrate into this big environment...
