Chapter 57: Set a Date
Su Mingqiang looked at the three turns and one noise on the ox cart and smiled so much that wrinkles appeared on his face.
Xiang Jianming clasped his fists and congratulated, "Brother Su, congratulations, Pei has invested a lot of money."
Pei Huaiye asked Xiang Jianming to be the matchmaker, but it was just a formality. Su Qingwu hurriedly invited people in, and Xiang Jianming and Pei Huaiye pushed the ox cart into the yard.
Li Zilan closed the gate to block everyone's curious sight.
Su Qianqian gnashed her teeth in anger. She said to Qiao Wang, "Isn't there no sewing machine in the whole of Xichuan? How could Pei Huaiye have one?!"
Qiao Wang snorted, "It should have been bought on the black market."
The two looked at each other and smiled maliciously at the same time.
Su Qianqian's eyes were full of brilliance, "Brother Shen, let's go report him!"
"Don't worry, let's get married tomorrow. We need to investigate this matter thoroughly before we do anything."
There are three persimmon trees crowded together in the Su family courtyard. In summer, the trees with lush branches and leaves become a good place to cool off.
Su Qingwu and his wife had already tidied the small yard. They placed a square wooden table under the shade of a tree and placed the dried fruits and cakes bought by Su Qingyue on it. A few red tomatoes and green cucumbers on a white plate looked particularly fresh and beautiful.
Li Zilan smiled and poured tea for them. "Captain Xiang, please sit down. Pei Huaiye, don't stand anymore."
After Su Mingqiang sat down with a smile, Xiang Jianming and Pei Huaiye sat down.
Xiang Jianming's face was filled with a joyful smile. He started a conversation about Pei Huaiye and Su Qingyue's birth dates, and handed the marriage certificate and Pei Huaiye's marriage report to Su Mingqiang.
Su Qingwu and Li Zilan could read, and they huddled together to explain to Su Mingqiang.
Pei Huaiye's buzz cut made him look even more heroic, and a gentle smile appeared on his usually rebellious face. He was polite and considerate to the elders of the Su family and answered their questions with ease.
Su Qingyue ate her snacks and listened to their conversation, but she kept stealing glances at Pei Huaiye. She looked at his shaved head, then at his handsome face with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and she really liked him.
Like the telepathy between lovers, Pei Huaiye raised his eyes and met a little face that was both pure and lustful.
Su Qingyue was seen holding a tomato with her tender white fingers like water chestnuts and eating it in small bites. Her red lips were stained with the tomato juice, her skin was as white as cream, her eyebrows were as beautiful as paintings, her pair of peach blossom eyes were watery and twinkling, and the corners of her eyes were slightly raised as she looked at Pei Huaiye intently.
After being caught in the act, she curved her eyes and gave Pei Huaiye a playful and shy smile, which was both pure and seductive.
Pei Huaiye's eyes were deep and his throat tightened unconsciously.
This little devil only knows how to tease me! She will have a hard time in the future! Li Zilan looked around, and she couldn't help coughing a few times when she saw the sticky eyes of the two people.
Xiang Jianming saw that the discussion was almost over, so he said cheerfully, "These two kids are so in love with each other, how about setting the date on the sixth day of next month?"
Su Mingqiang smiled and said, "It's an auspicious day. It happens to be Qingyue's birthday."
Pei Huaiye's eyes lit up, "Then we'll get married on the sixth day of August!"
The Su family members looked at Su Qingyue, waiting for her reply.
Pei Huaiye's gaze was too scorching, and Su Qingyue hurriedly looked away, hiding the shyness and expectation in her eyes, "Well, then let's do it on the sixth day."
After the wedding date was set, everyone started discussing the details of the wedding, such as how many tables to invite and whether to sew or buy the wedding dress.
As the sun sets, the sunset turns the sky red.
Li Zilan prepared a table full of delicious food, and everyone ate and chatted until the kerosene lamp was lit, and the laughter in the Su family courtyard gradually faded away.
"It's getting late. Pei, you still need to keep an eye on the progress of building the house. Go back and have a rest." Su Qingwu said with a smile.
Su Qingyue returned to the room, took the medicine and gauze and handed them to Pei Huaiye, and said with concern: "How is your injury? Change the medicine before going to bed tonight."
Pei Huaiye was happy today. After a few glasses of strong liquor, he was a little tipsy. He looked at Su Qingyue with undisguised possessiveness in his eyes, "Apply the medicine to me."
Su Mingqiang paused, and his good impression of Pei Huaiye dropped a few points.
Xiang Jianming laughed, "Old Su! Pei is injured and he drank with you guys for several rounds. Why don't you let Qingyue send Pei Huaiye back to get some medicine before coming back? Now they are both engaged, so there's nothing to worry about."
Su Mingqiang was also an experienced person, but when he thought about his beautiful daughter having to send a drunk man home, his tone suddenly became unfriendly, "Zhuangzhuang, go and call your aunt to come home in thirty minutes."
Su Zhuangzhuang received the order, stood up straight, and said seriously: "Okay, Grandpa!"
In Pei Huaiye's thatched hut, only the bed was clean.
The rest of the space was filled with important materials for building a house.
Su Qingyue took a lot of effort to move the drunk Pei Huaiye to the bed.
The camouflage uniform covered the blood on his chest. When Su Qingyue opened the wound and took a look, her eyes immediately turned red. "Why did the wound split again?"
Su Qingyue opened and closed her red lips, blaming Pei Huaiye for not taking care of herself. Her watery peach blossom eyes were filled with mist, and she glared at him from time to time.
Pei Huaiye's heart felt like it was soaked in warm water, feeling indescribably warm.
His deep gaze was fixed on Su Qingyue. Looking at her petal-like red lips, he suddenly thought of the way she ate tomatoes in the afternoon - both innocent and gorgeous.
Su Qingyue, with skin as white as snow, concentrated on dealing with a tomato.
Her peach-red lips were delicate and moist, with bright red juice hanging on her cute, slightly upturned lip beads. The corners of her eyes were red and slightly upturned, but her eyes were as clear as spring water.
He looks like someone who is seducing people without even realizing it.
Just like now.
She bent over and applied medicine to Pei Huaiye, revealing her slender figure, her plump curves swaying as she changed the gauze.
Sometimes it even brushed against his firm chest.
Su Qingyue opened her red lips slightly, exhaled orchid-like air, and blew softly on the wound on Pei Huaiye's chest, "Aye, does it still hurt?"
A delicate and charming voice sounded.
The two were very close.
The sense of touch is infinitely amplified.
Pei Huaiye only felt a tingling sensation rising from his chest instantly.
His eyes became more and more scorching, and he leaned close to her lips and coaxed her in a hoarse voice: "A kiss will stop hurting."
"Aunt, grandpa told me to call you Feijia!"
Su Zhuangzhuang stood on tiptoe and knocked on the door of the thatched hut.
Pei Huaiye: Su Qingyue looked at his aggrieved expression and chuckled.
Before she left, she leaned forward and pecked Pei Huaiye's cheek lightly, "See you tomorrow, take good care of your injuries!"
Su Qingyue walked back holding Xiao Zhuangzhuang's hand, with a sweet smile on her face.
A fashionable woman on a bicycle passed by her. Under the cover of night, Su Qingyue did not recognize that she was the woman who bought handkerchiefs at the supply and marketing cooperative during the day.
Qiu Lu found Pei's house according to the address. She originally thought she could take the bus, but she didn't expect that there was only one bus a day from the county town to Shuangshui Village.
She carried her luggage and had to buy a bicycle temporarily and ride all the way from the county town to the village. Qiu Lu parked the bike and knocked on the door breathlessly, "Brother Pei, are you home?"
Zhang Dongmei opened the door and saw a beautiful woman who looked like she was from the city. "Who are you?"
Qiu Lu raised her chin and said, "I am Qiu Lu, from Beijing. Is Pei Huaiye at home?"
