Chapter 21 It’s Not Too Late to Regret
Chen Yi sat on the back of the bicycle and felt a little cold.
The back seat is padded with a thick cushion, which seems to be a thoughtful touch.
I didn't expect a man could be so attentive. It's not easy.
When they arrived at the place, Chen Yi got out of the car and followed He Mingcheng into the house.
He Mingcheng's aunt was also in the room, looking at the two of them with a smile.
He Shuyun took Chen Yi's hand and said, "Chen Yi, we are a family from now on. If you need anything, just tell me. This is the red envelope from your aunt. Take it quickly."
Chen Yi glanced at He Mingcheng and felt that it would be a bad day not to accept it, so she accepted it.
I can give it to He Mingcheng in the evening, but not now.
Chen Yi called everyone one by one, they were all relatives from the brigade.
There were two tables in the room, one for her, He Mingcheng, and her aunt's family.
The others sat at one table, and these two tables received several red envelopes.
As for the gifts, they are all from He Mingcheng, and she will not accept them.
The meals today were very good, with six dishes in total, four of which were meat dishes.
Shredded potatoes with dried chili peppers, stir-fried vermicelli with sauerkraut, pork stewed with cabbage and tofu, chicken stewed with hazel mushrooms, braised fish, and meat stewed with shredded beans.
Although there is not much meat, it is not easy to get enough for all the dishes.
There was one fish on each table, and it looked to be just over two kilograms.
After a busy day, Chen Yi felt like her face was almost stiff from smiling.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the relatives finished their instructions to He Mingcheng and left.
Chen Yi sat on the kang, feeling exhausted. She didn't do anything, but she felt very tired.
And the biggest pressure is psychological pressure.
All the relatives and friends around them sincerely wish them well, but I feel like I am no different from a marriage fraudster.
Suddenly I feel so bad...
I used to think that scumbags were the worst people, but now it seems that I am worse.
At least they only deceived one person, but I deceived many people.
"He Mingcheng." She took a deep breath and called out to the busy person.
He Mingcheng was cleaning the table. When he heard her calling him, he put down his work and walked over.
"Are you tired? Go to the cabin and take a nap. I have cleaned everything." He said as he sat on the stool.
Chen Yi felt even more guilty when she heard him care about her like this.
"No, I want to tell you that it's not too late for you to regret now. It's not fair for us to treat you like this. What are you going to do in the future?"
She looked at the person in front of her and spoke out her true feelings.
It is really not very decent to drag innocent people into trouble for your own affairs.
He Mingcheng smiled, with some helplessness in his eyes, "Since I mentioned it, I am mentally prepared. Don't worry, I won't regret it. As long as you are willing, we can live like this for the rest of our lives."
His tone was sincere and his eyes were genuine.
Oh my god, how can there be such a stupid man?
Chen Yi turned her head away and couldn't bear to look at him. Is she that good?
"What do you like about me?" she asked.
He Mingcheng thought for a moment and said, "At first I thought all the educated youth were arrogant and looked down on everyone, but you are not like that. You are polite to everyone."
"He also helps me cook and clean the house. He doesn't complain at all and even learned how to make a fire."
"If I were to say what I like about you, I like you as a person. You are good-looking and polite."
Chen Yi: …
It feels like nothing was said?
But she didn't dwell on it too much. It was the same as when she liked scumbags before. She had no reason to do so.
He Mingcheng is careful and caring, handsome, and can do housework and cook.
It's not easy to find such a good man.
When she thought of this, Chen Yi's heart unconsciously underwent a lot of changes.
The two of them cleaned up the mess together and gave away all the leftovers.
He Mingcheng knew that she never ate leftovers, so he didn't keep any.
After packing up, he said to Chen Yi: "I'll take you out to see what's in the house and where the things are. You'll have an idea of where they are."
Chen Yi nodded in agreement. After all, they would be living together in the future, so they should explain things to each other and get to know each other.
There was a wooden barn next to the house with a lock on the door.
After opening it, there were some sundries inside, as well as two large water tanks, about 1.2 meters high.
It was covered with wooden boards and pressed down with large stones.
He Mingcheng opened one of them and said, "This is where the meat is. There are two pounds of pork belly, a river fish, and half a lamb leg left over from last time."
"The other water tank is for storing food, but I only put it there in spring and autumn. It's all in the house now."
The two men went outside again. There was a cellar behind the warehouse. It was dark inside, and when it was opened, a lot of heat was emitted.
"This is where the vegetables are stored, but don't go down there, it's quite deep and dangerous."
He Mingcheng was afraid that she would be curious, so he had to remind her.
Chen Yi was not interested in this kind of thing, so she didn't ask any more questions.
When the two returned to the house, Chen Yi discovered that there was a new wardrobe in the cabin, and it was newly painted and very bright.
"Where did this come from?" she asked curiously.
He Mingcheng replied: "I asked someone to make it. The commune doesn't sell it, and I don't know if you like it, but since you have a lot of stuff, I made it."
Looking at the five luggage bags and boxes on the kang, he knew that girls could have more things.
Chen Yi likes it very much. The dark red color is not eye-catching and is very durable.
"Thank you." She smiled again, "I think I only know how to say thank you."
Her tone was somewhat helpless, after all, other people had paid so much.
This made her feel helpless and she didn't know how to respond to the same thing.
He Mingcheng also noticed that she was a little anxious, so he said, "The family should buy some new things, so you don't have to feel psychologically burdened."
"Have a good rest, I'll cook dinner tonight."
After watching the people leave, Chen Yi closed the door and sat on the edge of the kang.
It seems that she owes others more and more.
This big boy is pretty good, though.
It's a pity that she still can't get over it. It's just not meant to be...
He Mingcheng sat on the edge of the kang with a smile on his face, grinning foolishly.
He is not a fool, of course he can see Chen Yi's dilemma.
The more this happens, the more she will think about herself, and the guilt in her heart will make her sympathize with herself.
I can’t hold my wife in my arms and have a warm bed now, but I will in the future!
Maybe a month or two, maybe...
Maybe we can get it in two days!
Chen Yi did not get up to eat at night, but slept until after six in the morning.
The kang was very hot, but it was no longer hot in the morning. However, it was obvious that He Mingcheng had heated the kang again at night.
She turned over and looked out the window at the pale sky.
She will have to live here from now on and wait for an opportunity to go out and do business.
Actually, it’s a good thing to think about it. Life in the countryside is not necessarily bad.
In the eyes of others, this is a poor and barren place, but in her eyes, it is a beautiful place with clear water and pleasant air.
Things will definitely be better in summer, and I am looking forward to my future life more and more.
