Chapter 178 Once the closest person



It took him decades to completely eliminate the fear, so you can imagine how much damage it caused him at that time.

"Brother Li..." Unconsciously, she sat on his legs, touching his soft lips over and over again.

"Yutong..." He hugged her tightly, fearing that she would fall into the basin of water if she lost her balance.

"Brother Li...don't be afraid!" Soft hands reached into his clothes and gently stroked his shoulders.

The familiar texture, the warm breath, is the man she loves most in her life.

The impulse from last night came back again.

This time there was nothing to hide, and neither of them dared to move through the fabric.

"Brother Li, if you want to..." She didn't mind. Anyway, she only recognized him in her past and present lives.

"Don't talk nonsense, I can bear it." He hugged her tightly, buried his head in her neck, and said sullenly.

"Brother Li, I..." can help you.

"Be good! I don't want to let you down." He hadn't collected enough money yet, and he wasn't able to prepare a wonderful banquet for her, so he couldn't take her in such an unclear way.

"Brother Li..." She didn't feel wronged, not at all.

"Yutong, go to bed!" He resisted all impulses, picked her up and put her on the stool beside him, then bent over to continue washing clothes.

"Brother Li..." His eyes moved and his cheeks were burning hot.

"Be good! Go!" Yan Mingli didn't dare to look up at her. He was afraid of getting lost in her deep affection and not caring about anything else.

"Brother Li, good night!" The little girl finally left and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The little girl trusted him... too much!

The young man looked up at the clear sky. Could that be the little girl’s hometown?

Questions drifted into my heart along with the night wind, and then into someone's dream, until a pale white light appeared in the sky.

When Mo Yutong woke up, the young man had just come back from fetching water. When he saw her open the door, he couldn't help but smile gently.

"Brother Li, can we still eat wontons this morning?" She walked to the gutter and asked while applying tooth powder.

"Okay, I'll go make a fire." He put the bucket back into the woodshed, walked into the kitchen and started to make a fire.

After brushing their teeth, washing their faces and eating breakfast, the family of four sat happily around the round table. From time to time, two of them would look at each other, and then lower their heads with slightly blushing cheeks.

After finishing their meal and cleaning up, the four of them dressed neatly and left the yard.

There were already some members on the way to the brigade headquarters, and everyone's face was filled with high morale.

The weather has been good these days and the rice has been drying well. They can basically finish the rice harvesting work in two more days. It’s hopeful just thinking about it.

After receiving the tools, we continued to head to the rice fields. The members were busy working, and the fields were full of vitality.

Even the scorching wind seemed to cool a bit, blowing coolly across the faces of the members who straightened up to rest.

Xiong Yuan pounded his aching waist. In order to cover up the lie about the thirty yuan, he had to stay in the field until the autumn harvest was over.

Looking up at the scorching sun, he really wanted to collapse on the spot. It was too tiring! I really don't know how Boss Yan could do the work so quickly and well!

"Let me do it!" When Yan Mingli straightened up and wiped the sweat off his face with the white towel hanging around his neck, he saw Xiong Yuan looking as if he had lost all hope in life.

Yes, he was a street urchin who did not work all day and was a well-known "upside-down household" in the brigade. It was really difficult for him to work so hard in the fields.

"That won't work. I'll do it." Xiong Yuan jumped up, gripped the knife tightly and started cutting.

"Didn't you say before that I had to help you with the autumn harvest?" Yan Mingli reminded him.

"I just said it casually, didn't I?" How could he really do it? What would happen next?

"Do it!" Since the girl didn't want him to do it, he had to do the job well and not make things difficult for her.

"Okay!" Xiong Yuan held on, and swung his sore arms with all his strength.

When the whistle sounded for the end of work, Yan Mingli picked up the little girl and her younger brother and sister and headed home.

He has an appointment with Blind Zhang at noon today, so he can't be late.

When he got home soon, he asked for dumplings. The little girl naturally would not refuse and immediately cooked a big pot of dumplings stuffed with water chestnut and pork.

After finishing lunch and quickly cleaning up the kitchen, Yan Mingli greeted the little girl and said, "I still owe Uncle Zeng four cents for buying a bucket last time. Uncle Zeng asked me to fetch two bundles of firewood."

"Is it in time?" The lunch break is only two hours long, plus the round trip journey, there is only an hour and a half left. We also have to cook and eat, so there is not much time.

"Sure, I chop wood quickly and will definitely be back before work." Yan Mingli strode out of the yard with an axe in hand.

"Then you better be careful and come back quickly." Mo Yutong watched his figure disappear from her sight before closing the gate and preparing to take the things she needed to go out in the afternoon.

Blind Zhang’s house was not far away. If you walked into the woods and went up, you would soon see two yellow mud-tiled houses.

On the dam in front of the house, a male and a female chicken were snuggling in the shadows and whispering to each other. Yan Mingli put the axe on the ground and knocked on the side door of the firewood shed.

"The door is not locked, come in." A strong male voice sounded from the room.

"Hello! Uncle Zhang, I am Yan Mingli, the son of Yan Wenzon." Yan Mingli pushed the door open and saw the man sitting behind the small table looking at him energetically.

"Xiaoyuan said you have something to ask me." Blind Zhang is not completely blind, but he was injured in his early years, which affected his eyesight. He can only see people clearly under strong light.

"I want to ask someone." Yan Mingli sat opposite him, feeling very nervous. He was both expectant and afraid.

He knew he shouldn't believe such nonsense, but many of the things the little girl showed were beyond reasonable explanation, and he was really panicked sometimes!
