Chapter 108 Pen Holder

“Hmm…”

Before Zhu Suisui could react, the other person's lips had already pressed down on him.

The man's breath fell directly on her skin. His frosty face magnified in front of her eyes, but no one could have imagined that his lips would be so hot.

Zhu Suisui's heart skipped a beat and he wanted to step back in panic.

But Lu Lanxu held the back of her head, so she had no way to escape.

You can only let the other party ask for it.

This was the first kiss between the two since that night.

Lu Lanxu's gaze fell on Zhu Suisui's face. She looked at her at a loss and seemed a little confused. Her eyelashes were like a small palm-leaf fan, sweeping her eyes, making the kiss seem numb.

He didn't go any further.

Instead, they fit so closely together, and her lips were just as he had imagined, with the sweet fragrance of winter dates.

Lu Lanxu released her lips and rested his forehead against hers. The color in his eyes was as thick as ink, and he just looked at Zhu Suisui.

“Very sweet.”

A blush instantly spread across Zhu Suisui's fair skin, and the moisture still remained on her lips.

I wish Suisui could understand the meaning of these two words.

Not only is winter jujube sweet...

The intertwining of their breathing added a bit of ambiguity to the atmosphere.

She turned her eyes away, not daring to look at Lu Lanxu again, and felt a little annoyed.

"What are you doing..."

Lu Lanxu smiled and said, "It was Sui Sui who agreed."

Zhu Suisui: “…”

She clearly thought that Lu Lanxu wanted to eat winter dates!

Who knew he wouldn't play by the rules?

But then I thought, what is there to be shy about?

It's not like they haven't done that before.

Zhu Suisui steadied his breath and glared at him, "I'll let you off this time."

Just pretend this never happened and reach out.

Lu Lanxu understood what she meant and felt helpless.

Being able to still think about food after kissing.

It could only be Zhu Suisui.

In the end, I wiped it and passed it on.

All in all, it is progress.

Zhu Suisui wouldn't let him get close to her before, but now he can finally kiss her.

Lu Lanxu thought, let's proceed step by step.

Everything is moving in a positive direction.

We didn't talk all the way.

Zhu Suisui lowered his head and ate winter dates. After he was done eating, he just had to stretch out his hand for more.

After they got down the mountain, they saw that it was still early, so they wandered around the village for a while.

Actually, there is not much to see. It is probably just to tell Lu Lanxu who lives in this family and who lives in that family, and then some things about Zhu Suisui's childhood.

Lu Lanxu listened quietly, with tenderness in his eyes.

When passing by a house.

Something was thrown out, and Lu Lanxu was quick to pull Zhu Suisui, who was talking excitedly, into his arms, so he was not hit by the thrown object.

Zhu Suisui was shocked and thought that Lu Lanxu was trying to take advantage of him again.

It was not until I saw the things thrown out that I realized I had misunderstood.

Lu Lanxu didn't know what Zhu Suisui was thinking. If she knew, she would definitely be helpless.

Even if a couple wants to be intimate with each other, it can't be considered taking advantage.

Lu Lanxu held the man in his arms and immediately lowered his head to ask, "How are you? Did you get hit?"

Zhu Suisui shook his head.

At this time, the sound of quarreling could be heard from inside.

There was also the sound of old people crying.

Zhu Suisui took a look at the place and searched his memory before he remembered which family this was.

"It seems to be Grandma Xu's house."

Lu Lanxu took a look inside and saw that everything was smashed and in a mess, as if two families were arguing, so he asked, "Should we intervene?"

Zhu Suisui also took a look.

She pursed her lips.

Every family has its own problems.

This Granny Xu, like Granny Zhu, is a widow.

Grandma Xu gave birth to two sons and a daughter. Her life in the village should not have been sad.

She raised three children with great difficulty, and life should have been easier no matter how hard it was. However, who would have thought that after her two sons got married, they would separate from Grandma Xu.

Grandma Xu didn't want to be a burden to her two sons, so she moved into the dilapidated house.

When Zhu Suisui was a child, he ate the food given by Grandma Xu and knew that she was a kind person and was good to all the children in the village.

She was just too nice and only thought about giving to others, but in the end, none of her three children were filial to her.

I listened to the argument for a while.

It is probably because Grandma Xu is old now, her health is not as good as before, and her legs and feet are not convenient. She can no longer live alone, so she has to live with her two sons.

But neither son wanted to support Grandma Xu, so they started arguing over this issue.

Zhu Suisui pursed his lips and said, "Every family has its own problems. Even if we want to intervene in this matter, we can't do it directly."

After all, they are outsiders.

Even if it can help for a while, the old man's life will only become more difficult after he passes away.

Just thinking about how good Grandma Xu was to her when she was a child, Zhu Suisui felt a little bit reluctant.

She went over and picked up what had been thrown away.

When I was halfway through picking them up.

She uttered a cry.

Hearing this voice, Lu Lanxu thought something had happened, so he hurried over and asked in a nervous tone, "What's wrong?"

"I think I have a solution." Zhu Suisui looked at the things in his hand and said in a low voice.

Lu Lanxu followed the line of sight and saw a bamboo-carved pen holder painted in silver-gray lacquer.

It is about thirteen or fourteen centimeters high, and about eight or nine centimeters in diameter. It is carved with lines full of landscape paintings.

It's quite old, just with some grey paint on it.

It somewhat affects the aesthetics.

Seeing her expression, Lu Lanxu knew what she meant, "Are you planning to buy it?"

"Just consider it as a favor. Both families are unwilling to support Grandma Xu because they think she is a burden. But if Grandma Xu is not a burden, their attitude will be different." Zhu Suisui looked at the thing in his hand.

She actually didn't have to accept this thing. After all, if she wanted something like this, she could get it at a lower price.

Now just think of it as doing one good deed every day.

Lu Lanxu nodded and took another look at the bamboo tube. He also knew a little about painting, so he said, "But the carving on this thing does have some charm."

Hearing this.

Zhu Suisui said nothing.

Seeing her like this, Lu Lanxu seemed to have thought of something and understood it instantly, "Is it a good thing?"

"That's fine." Zhu Suisui's voice was low. She just took a glance and found that there was red mist attached to it. She estimated that it could be sold for some money.

It can definitely be sold for hundreds of dollars.

Compared to the countryside, even a hundred dollars is enough for a family to live on for a long time.

After all, the countryside is different from the city.

Nowadays, the prices of things are just a few cents, and a hundred yuan is a huge sum of money.

Xu Rongrong's marriage could sell her entire life for a hundred yuan.

You can imagine how attractive one hundred yuan was to the countryside in that era.

But it looks like Grandma Xu’s family probably doesn’t know about it yet.
