Shen Xiangzhi had not been gone for long, and when she heard him coming back, she hurried to open the door.
As soon as she opened the door of the room, Shen Xiangzhi had already put the food on the table and walked towards her.
"Hey, didn't brother say you were asleep?" He just came to see if she was asleep. If she was not asleep, he would let her get up and eat before going back to sleep.
"I... was too hungry to sleep, so I got up." An Hongdou didn't dare to say that she was hiding in the house to eat.
"Then come out and eat. There's nothing good to eat in the state-owned restaurant at this time, so I just bought something at random. I don't know if it suits your taste. Just make do with it for now. I'll go buy some groceries later and make you something delicious in the evening." Shen Xiangzhi had lied to him before, saying that he couldn't cook, but in fact, the food he cooked was delicious.
Looking back on that time, An Hongdou really believed his lies.
"I want to eat meat." An Hongdou didn't crave meat so much before, but it might be because her body needs too much energy now, so she eats meat every day, but still wants to eat meat.
"Okay." Shen Xiangzhi replied, pulling her out.
An Hongdou watched him hold her hand so naturally and couldn't help but start to ponder.
With three children as a bond, they probably won't be separated in the future. But how will they get along after the children are born?
As the saying goes, food, sex and nature are part of one's nature. An Hongdou admitted that she was tempted.
And Shen Xiangzhi has become more and more skilled in his intimate actions with her recently. I just don’t know if he is doing it for the sake of the child, or if he is just like me and feels a little moved.
Shen Xiangzhi said that the food was not very good, but for the two brothers of the An family, it was actually very good.
It was unknown whether anyone lived in the yard, but at a glance, it was obvious that the weeds had just been cleared, and the furniture in the house had all been cleaned by Shen Xiangzhi.
Shen Xiangzhi took out the food and laid it out, then opened the lunch box, and the fragrance inside instantly wafted out.
The seemingly plain vegetables were mixed with shredded meat, the soup was yellow and you could see the oil, and each person had a bowl of rice. Plus, we had been hungry for most of the day, so the meal was so delicious.
An Hongdou, on the other hand, had already eaten something secretly, and just ate a little bit hastily. Chen Xiangzhi thought she was too hungry and had no appetite, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
After finishing the meal, Brother An asked Chen Xiangzhi, "Brother-in-law, do you see if there is anything here that needs to be tidied? While the fourth brother and I are here, let's clean it up together. It will be more comfortable for you and your little sister to live here."
"Thank you for your kindness, big brother." Shen Xiangzhi thanked him first, and then said, "I have cleaned up beforehand, and there is nothing that needs to be sorted out. Just live like this for the time being. If there is anything you need in the future, I will notify my family."
"Okay, we are all family, there is no need for false politeness, just let me know if there is anything." Brother An said generously, "Since everything is fine, then the fourth brother and I will go back first, and leave the cart with you. We will come to see you again when we have time in a few days."
Communication was also inconvenient. If my family wanted to know when An Hongdou in the town would give birth, they could only come to see her often, or ask acquaintances to pass on a message.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to notify.
Shen Xiangzhi sent his two brothers away and packed up the lunch boxes. When he returned to the room, he saw An Hongdou who was already asleep.
The warm sunlight shone on her face, making even the fine hairs on her face clearly visible.
Chen Xiangzhi took out a towel and a basin, brought a basin of water into the room, and wiped the sweat off An Hongdou's face.
"Stop it!" The itchiness on her face made An Hongdou feel uneasy, but she didn't wake up. Instead, she slowly turned over and continued to sleep.
"Oh!"
Shen Xiangzhi suddenly felt that this fierce woman suddenly became cute after she became pregnant.
With a gentle smile, he took the basin away and washed the towels and hung them outside to dry.
There was a small shed in the corner of the yard, which was a makeshift bathroom. Shen Xiangzhi carried a bucket of water in, took a quick cold shower, and then came out wearing a pair of shorts.
It was still early, so he took a basket and went out to buy vegetables. However, the market in the small town is usually at noon, and at this time, except for the supply and marketing cooperative, all other shops were closed.
After a round of shopping, I didn't buy anything useful except some eggs.
As for the meat that An Hongdou wanted to eat, even the meat station was closed, let alone buying meat.
Shen Xiangzhi returned disappointed and turned into a small alley. When he came out, he was holding an old hen in his hand. No one knew where he bought it.
An Hongdou was awakened by a burst of fragrance.
I smelled the fragrance of old hen soup while I was still asleep.
She sniffed, and the appetite in her stomach was aroused in an instant. She opened her eyes immediately, and all sleepiness disappeared in an instant.
When I got up, put on my shoes and walked out, I saw that there was a light in the kitchen and Shen Xiangzhi was sitting there making a fire.
An Hongdou did not rush over, but looked at a rope next to the door, reached out and pulled it, and a bright yellowish light instantly lit up in the room.
Shen Xiangzhi just came over, and thought she had never seen an electric light, so he asked her with a smile on his face, "Is it fun?"
"What?" An Hongdou was confused for a moment, and then she realized that he was asking if it was fun to pull the lantern.
An Hongdou couldn't help laughing and said, "It's fun. This thing lights up when you pull it. I've never seen it before. It's magical."
In fact, she has had even more fun.
However, since Shen Xiangzhi regarded her as a bumpkin, she didn’t need to explain.
"This is an electric light. It won't be long before the village will have electricity. Then it won't be surprising to use it every day." Shen Xiangzhi explained kindly.
An Hongdou pretended to be surprised and said, "Can our village also install electric lights? That would be great. It would be better if it could be installed sooner."
At the very least, having electricity is so convenient. You can turn on the light by just pulling the trigger, and you don’t have to get up at night to light a kerosene lamp.
However, my family recently bought a flashlight, which is quite convenient.
An Hongdou suddenly remembered that An Delai had said that it was Shen Xiangzhi who reminded him to apply for the bridge construction. Could it be that he really had such great ability?
"The country is developing vigorously. In the future, everyone will have access to electricity. Okay, get up and wash your hands. It's time to eat. I was lucky enough to buy a chicken today and make chicken soup for you..."
An Hongdou looked at him and said, "I thought you were going to tell Second Uncle to go to the county to apply for it someday, and then the quota will be given."
Shen Xiangzhi chuckled, "Then you think too highly of me. If I had this ability, wouldn't I go to heaven?"
