Chapter 29 Live in the Present
The two of them didn't talk while eating, so they finished the meal quickly.
Chen Yi looked at the four empty plates and said, "It's no use bringing a lunch box."
She ate ten dumplings, and He Mingcheng ate all the rest.
I don't know where all the food went. He looks quite thin.
He Mingcheng smiled and didn't mention that he ate a lot, and said, "Let's go?"
It was already half past eleven when the two of them left the restaurant and went somewhere else for a walk.
He Mingcheng used the food coupons to buy ten kilograms of flour and five kilograms of rice.
Noodles are 30 cents a pound, and rice is 25 cents.
The rice quality is not very good and the noodles are a bit yellow.
Still, that's the way most of the food here is.
Like the rice and flour in Chen Yi's space, they are all white and shiny.
When it was time to catch the bus, they were already there long ago.
On the way back, the villagers still greeted them enthusiastically, and Chen Yi responded politely without talking much.
It was already past two in the afternoon when they got home. The two of them cleaned up and prepared dinner.
He Mingcheng took out a bag and handed it to her, saying, "I don't know what you like, so I asked someone to buy it for you."
The marriage happened too suddenly and there wasn't much good stuff in the commune, so he wrote to his colleagues and asked them to buy something, which just arrived in the mail.
Chen Yi was a little surprised. She didn't expect that he bought something again.
I want to ask for a return, but nowadays, mailing takes many days, so I'm afraid it won't be returned.
She has been eating and drinking for free for such a long time, and the occasional thing she takes out is not much.
"Don't buy these things in the future." Chen Yi said helplessly.
I thought it was a waste to buy so many things.
On second thought, she realized that people bought these things because they liked her. Looking at these things, she felt burdened.
Looking at He Mingcheng's smile, it was sincere and a little cautious.
Chen Yi felt a little confused, so she took her bag and went back.
He Mingcheng didn't say much. After all, he said too much and pushed too hard. He was afraid that his wife would fly away once she got into bed.
Now he just wants to take it slow. After all, they are already married. Even if Chen Yi doesn't like him, they can still fall in love with each other over time...
Chen Yi was sitting on the kang in the small house. When she heard someone coming out of the next room, she went to light the fire again.
She looked at what was in her hands, a bottle of cream and a lipstick.
It's called a lipstick, but it's more like a lip balm.
There is also a big red scarf that feels like cashmere and is very soft.
She pursed her lips, not knowing what to feel.
A little happy, but also a little confused.
In the evening, He Mingcheng made buns with pork and sauerkraut filling. It seemed that he really liked eating sauerkraut.
I had dumplings stuffed with sauerkraut for lunch and buns stuffed with sauerkraut for dinner.
"I didn't know whether you like sauerkraut or not, so I made it on my own initiative." He Mingcheng scratched his head embarrassedly.
In fact, the food at home was almost finished, and the sauerkraut was given to him by He Shuyun.
He lives alone and travels frequently, so he doesn't have the habit of hoarding things.
Chen Yi shook her head and said, "I can eat anything, but I don't like beef."
It must be difficult to eat beef here, right? After all, cattle were used to plow the land and were very important.
He Mingcheng smiled bitterly and replied, "You want to eat beef, but I can't get it!"
This is not a joke, it's true.
Compared to beef, mutton is easier to buy, followed by pork, chicken, duck and goose.
Beef is rare in rural areas and not often available in cities.
After the two of them finished their meal, He Mingcheng rushed to wash the dishes and clean up, not letting Chen Yi do anything.
In the evening, Chen Yi sat on the sofa in the space, and a movie was playing on TV.
Naturally, her mind was not on the movie, but on the relationship between the two of them.
Maybe because she has nothing to do all day, she has now become accustomed to He Mingcheng's presence.
And his concern...
Chen Yi only now realized that she might have some feelings for him.
People can't just look at the past, they have to live in the present.
Now she is too obsessed with things from her past life. It's all in the past, so why bother thinking about the past?
After one night, Chen Yi finally came to terms with it.
If you like it, then like it, don't worry.
He Mingcheng got up and made breakfast, and when he saw her come out, his eyes lit up.
Chen Yi was wearing the clothes he bought for her. She had no makeup on her face, but she was still bright and beautiful.
"You...you are so beautiful." He Mingcheng couldn't say anything and could only say this stupidly.
Chen Yi was amused by his silly look, he was really silly enough.
When He Mingcheng saw her smile, he felt his heart beat faster.
Oh my god! I saw a fairy!
Chen Yi ate while looking at He Mingcheng's silly smile.
"Are you done yet? Can you please eat your meal properly?" She put down her chopsticks and pretended to be angry.
He Mingcheng quickly picked up the bowl and chopsticks, "Eat, eat, eat, I'll eat, you eat too."
He noticed that Chen Yi's attitude towards him was different.
Everything seemed to have changed in just one night.
Although he didn't know why, he was very happy.
As long as Chen Yi slowly accepts me, everything will be smooth sailing in the future, and I'll have a wife and children and a warm bed to live in!
It’s beautiful just thinking about it!
The next morning.
Li Qinglin came over with the package and put it on the kang.
"What is this?" He Mingcheng asked.
The father had already mailed something to him before, so he shouldn’t mail him something again.
My colleague's was also delivered.
Li Qinglin took a breath and said, "This is Chen Yi's package. Yours is a phone call. Come with me to the brigade headquarters later. This is a call from your unit."
He received the package this morning. The call came before he left home, so he came over to take a look.
Chen Yi heard herself being mentioned in the kitchen and went in to take a look.
"Chen Yi, your package seems to be sent from your home." Li Qinglin pointed to the things on the kang.
He knew this because he had seen the home addresses of these educated youth.
Chen Yi took a look and found that the sender was Chen Guoqiang, the original owner's father.
The package is not big, just a travel bag.
Seeing that she was deep in thought, He Mingcheng thought she was homesick, so he said to the team leader, "Uncle Li, let's go to the team headquarters. I'll go back and make a call."
He said hello to Chen Yi and left with his men.
Chen Yi didn’t think much about it, and she didn’t miss home. What home was there to miss?
I didn’t have a home in my previous life, and in this life, my original owner’s father and stepmother weren’t good people at first glance. No one would miss them.
But you have to accept the thing, don’t miss it!
When I opened it, I saw a new set of clothes, two barrels of malted milk, a bundle of cloth, and a letter.
Chen Yi opened the letter, which was filled with a whole page of writing.
It is signed by Chen Guoqiang and the letter was written by him.
The general content was that since Chen Yi had decided not to go home, some dowry would be prepared for her.
I hope they can live a good life and I didn't mention bringing my son-in-law back home in the future.
I guess he wants to say, never come back in this life.
Thank you for your support
