After delivering the borrowed tableware to the store on a cart, Chen Wangzhe returned home.
After the beginning of winter, there is less work to do in the fields.
Lin Xiuqin had nothing to do today, so she sat on the edge of the bed in the room and knitted a sweater and trousers with the needle and thread bought by Chen Wang.
The little girl was lying on the side, flipping through a fairy tale book with a candy in her mouth. Her short legs were raised in the air, swinging up and down from time to time.
Hearing the footsteps, they both immediately looked towards the door.
Chen Wang walked into the house with a smile on his face, looked at the two people and asked, "Are you cold? Do you want to get a charcoal brazier?"
Lin Xiuqin smiled and shook her head.
"It's not cold, it's not snowing yet!"
The little girl answered with a sweet smile.
"All right!"
Chen Wang shrugged.
He could clearly feel that the winters these days were much colder than in later generations, but people nowadays seemed to be more resistant to the cold.
On the contrary, he himself went out for a few walks early in the morning and felt a little cold after being blown by the cold wind.
Lin Xiuqin put down the needle and thread in her hand and made a few simple gestures.
This was a question to ask if he was cold and if he wanted her to get a brazier.
"No, I'm fine too."
Chen Wang chuckled and shook his head.
Neither of the two women felt cold, and he felt embarrassed.
He walked to the bed, took out the remaining two watermelon gums and the sour plum powder that he had only tasted a bite of from his pocket and handed them to the little girl.
"Wow, chewing gum and sour plum powder, thank you brother!"
The little girl sat up with a look of surprise and took the snacks.
Chen Wang sat down next to his wife and watched him knit a sweater quietly.
When he was a child in his previous life, he also wore sweaters hand-knitted by his mother.
Later, when I grew up a little, I felt that kind of sweater was too rustic and prickly, so I refused to wear it.
Later on, everyone started wearing warm clothes, and hand-knitted sweaters gradually disappeared. I only think of them occasionally and feel warm in my heart.
The little girl tore open the wrapper of a piece of chewing gum and handed it to Lin Xiuqin's mouth first.
This is also the reason why the little girl is so likable.
She is greedy, but when she comes across something good, she will share it with her family first and never thinks of eating it alone.
Lin Xiuqin leaned back slightly and shook her head to indicate that she didn't want to eat.
"Eat one, there are two!"
The little girl brought the gum closer until it touched her lips.
Unable to resist, Lin Xiuqin had no choice but to open her mouth and eat it.
The little girl then tore open another one and put it into her mouth. Then she used a small plastic spoon to eat the sour plum powder one spoonful at a time.
Even though he was frowning and grimacing because of the sourness, he still enjoyed it.
Chen Wang couldn't help laughing and said, "When the weather is good before the New Year, let's go to the city together and buy some New Year snacks and have a good New Year."
Hearing this, the little girl's eyes suddenly lit up and she said excitedly: "Really? Brother, don't lie to me, I haven't been to the city yet!"
Lin Xiuqin also looked at him expectantly.
Not to mention the little girl, she has never been to the city in her twenty years of life.
"You talk as if you've been to town."
Chen Wang rolled his eyes in amusement.
"Yeah, I don't think I've ever been to town!"
The little girl smiled foolishly.
Chen Wang smiled and asked, "Then next time Da Zhuang and I go to town, do you want to come with us? But walking is very tiring."
"Yes, I want to go. I'm not afraid of being tired!"
The little girl agreed quickly.
"Okay, then I'll take you around town next time, and then to the city again before the New Year."
"Ohhh...Brother is the best!"
The little guy cheered.
Lin Xiuqin also had a smile on her face and was in a good mood.
She had been to the town but not the city. She only heard women in the village who had been there often talk about how tall the houses were and how there was a department store that sold everything.
Whenever she talked about these, the woman who had been to the city would always blush and speak with full of pride.
Including her, the few people around who were listening to the woman's story were all envious and wondered if they had the chance to visit a big city.
Now she no longer needs to envy anyone.
The noodles we had for lunch were topped with sliced mutton, and each person also had a fried egg. They tasted so delicious.
After eating and drinking, Chen Wang, who had nothing to do, took a nap after a long time and forced Lin Xiuqin to sleep with him.
In this cold winter, let alone those who don’t have wives, how can those who have wives sleep alone? Can they sleep well?
The little girl also went back to her room and went to sleep.
In recent days, she has been eating and drinking delicious food every day, as well as taking nutritional supplements like malted milk. She has gained several pounds, and her little face has become visibly rounder.
"Awang, are you home?"
A familiar voice came from outside the house, waking Chen Wang from his sweet dream.
As he opened his eyes, his right hand, which was holding his wife, scratched subconsciously, causing his wife in his arms to blush and push him away in shame.
"Ahem...Brother Dazhuang is here, I'll go out and take a look."
Chen Wang lifted the warm quilt, got out of bed and put on his coat and pants.
Turning my head to look at the bed, I saw Lin Xiuqin pulling the quilt to cover her head, so my face couldn't be seen at all.
Chen Wang smiled, helped her cover the edge of the quilt, and then left the room.
"Here I am!"
After responding, he walked to the door and saw Chen Dazhuang and his master coming together.
“Master!”
Chen Wang greeted him.
