The Zheng family had already taken out all the fine grains they had stored for several months, but Zheng Xinming at the dinner table still looked like he had a hard time swallowing. Zheng Xinyi saw it, but since all those present were elders, she endured it and didn't say anything.
After dinner, Zheng Shaochun thought about it and gathered everyone together. He said, "Mom, later on, you and Shaoyun will live in Cuihua and me's main room. Shaodong and Yingzi will live in Shaoyun's room. Zheng Xinming and Zheng Xinwei will sleep in the other room."
Li Fen glared at Zheng Shaoyun and said nothing. Even though she was extremely unhappy in her heart, she was her own flesh and blood after all. In the current situation, she, Li Fen, had no other choice. Apart from Zheng Shaoyun, she would have to sleep in the same room with Yingzi and Cuihua. Instead of that, she might as well sleep in the same room with her own daughter!
"Xinming, after dinner, you can go to the kang to rest first. I will heat it up." Zheng Xinwei smiled foolishly.
But Zheng Xinming didn't appreciate his kindness. His eyes revealed a reluctance and contempt. He was forced to nod slightly to Zheng Xinwei: "Okay, then I'll trouble you, big brother."
Zheng Xinming, who was used to living in the city, couldn't get used to sleeping on the kang at all, and he also disliked the quilt covering him. Although Cuihua repeatedly emphasized that this was a washed quilt, he didn't know whether it was his own psychological effect or the quilt was really not washed clean, he just felt a pungent and extremely unpleasant smell.
Lying on the kang, he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. When he finally closed his eyes, Zheng Xinwei began to snore again with thunderous sound, which made Zheng Xinming even more irritated. He reached out and patted Zheng Xinwei who was already fast asleep. He turned over and continued snoring. Finally, Zheng Xinming could not bear it anymore, so he turned on the light cord, sat up and angrily lifted his quilt.
Zheng Xinwei felt his whole body shudder. He drowsily opened his eyes and saw Zheng Xinming, covered in a quilt, sitting on the kang. He rubbed his eyes, stood up and asked, "Xinming, why are you sitting here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
Zheng Xin understood him at a glance: "I want to sleep, but your snoring is too loud."
Zheng Xinwei reached out and touched the back of his head, looking a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry! When I get tired from work during the day, I snore. How about this, you go to sleep first, and I'll sit here and wait for you to fall asleep, and then I'll lie down."
Zheng Xin understood what he meant at a glance, and helplessly lay down and closed her eyes. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard another burst of snoring. She suddenly opened her eyes and looked around. This guy had actually fallen asleep while sitting. She was so helpless that she kicked him.
Zheng Xinwei's body tilted, and he immediately woke up. Looking at Zheng Xinming, who was staring at him helplessly with wide eyes, he knew that he must have fallen asleep again. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes... I'm sorry, I'm just too sleepy."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Zheng Xinming getting up and getting dressed. Zheng Xinwei quickly stopped him: "Where are you going? Don't you want to sleep?"
"You go to sleep! I'll go out for a walk." As he spoke, Zheng Xinming had already put on his shoes and socks, pushed the door open and left.
I had wanted to find some quiet in the lobby, but I didn't expect the snoring in the lobby to be louder than in the house. Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw Zheng Shaochun and Cuihua sleeping soundly in the lobby on a simple bed made of several wooden boards. Zheng Xinming felt like he was going crazy because there was no place for him to stay here.
Zheng Xinwei was just about to go out to look for Zheng Xinming. After all, he was unfamiliar with the place and if something happened it would be all over. Just as he was about to put on his shoes, the door was pushed open and Zheng Xinming walked in with a gloomy face.
"Are you back?" Zheng Xinwei asked, but he ignored her and just turned his head down with his cotton jacket covering his head.
