But the facts were beyond his expectations, and it was obvious that he was just being too sentimental.
In such a long time since returning from the hospital, An Hongdou has only come over twice.
Instead, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that his charm had declined, so he couldn't even attract a country girl?
No matter what, he is still much better than that scum Zhao Youliang, right?
An Hongdou nodded slightly, stood up and walked over to help him, "I brought you something, and by the way, I have something to discuss with you. By the way, where have you been?"
"It's boring to stay in the house, so just go out and take a walk." Seeing her naturally supporting his arm, Shen Xiangzhi blushed slightly and asked, "What do you want to discuss with me?"
"About building a house." An Hongdou helped him sit on the bed and then let go of his hand without a trace of reluctance.
However, where Shen Xiangzhi couldn't see, she twisted her fingers with her hands behind her back.
It’s true, this Chen Xiangzhi not only has a good-looking face, but his thin body is also quite attractive.
Although An Hongdou only touched his arm when she was supporting him, the taut lines and the indescribable aura emanating from his body were very alluring.
Don’t blame An Hongdou for being too lustful.
In her previous life, before the apocalypse, she worked from nine to five every day. After the apocalypse, she started the journey of leveling up and fighting monsters, which made her become an older leftover woman who has never had a relationship.
Now, she has met such a top-notch man, and they have had physical intimacy. It would be strange if she didn't have some thoughts in her mind.
"It just so happens that I have some suggestions about the house and I want to discuss it with you." Shen Xiangzhi's smile, even if he was just wearing ordinary clothes, made him look unparalleled in his demeanor.
An Hongdou sat down beside him and looked at him with burning eyes. "Don't worry about this. I brought you chicken soup and roast chicken. Eat them first?"
Shen Xiangzhi’s eyes were on the basket on the table, and after a moment, he said, “Actually, there is food at the educated youth point, so you don’t have to always think about sending me food.”
In this year, food is scarce in everyone's home.
Especially when I heard that An Hongdou actually didn't work and was supported by his brothers and sisters-in-law at home, if he were to be given food every day, even the best brothers and sisters-in-law would probably be dissatisfied.
Moreover, every time she sent food, it was meat, which was quite rare.
Shen Xiangzhi thought to himself, and was actually quite touched.
After all, it had been a long time since anyone had cared about him like this since the big changes in his family.
"I haven't been thinking about it all the time. I went into the mountains today and shot a few pheasants. I didn't bring them back, so I roasted them myself in the mountains. I couldn't finish them anyway, so I sent some to you." As she spoke, An Hongdou took out the roast chicken and chicken soup from the basket and placed them on the table, indicating that Shen Xiangzhi could eat.
An Hongdou actually had her own purpose in saying this.
She didn’t say that she deliberately sent food to Shen Xiangzhi, and she didn’t want to create the kind of rumors that the original owner had when she was chasing Zhao Youliang.
Those who are the first to take the initiative will never be appreciated. An Hongdou understands this truth very well.
As expected, Shen Xiangzhi didn't say anything.
But An Hongdou didn't know that Shen Xiangzhi's original full of emotion suddenly dropped by half after she said this.
Shen Xiangzhi's eating movements were very elegant, and even though his speed was not slow, it made people feel comfortable just watching him.
No wonder people say beauty is a feast to the eyes.
Watching beautiful women eat is also a kind of enjoyment.
Even though Chen Xiangzhi had a big appetite, he couldn't finish the whole roasted chicken and a large bowl of chicken soup.
I barely finished the chicken soup with a full stomach, but I only moved one leg of the roast chicken.
The taste of this chicken was far worse than the braised lamb last time, but for him, it was good enough to have something to eat, and he didn't have the energy to be picky.
After eating, Shen Xiangzhi took the handkerchief next to the pillow and wiped his mouth, then rewrapped the remaining pheasant with oil paper and put it away, then said to An Hongdou: "I'm done, thank you."
After eating and drinking, Shen Xiangzhi also figured it out.
No matter what An Hongdou's purpose was in sending him food, he benefited from it and should thank her from the bottom of his heart.
His mother often taught him that one should not be ungrateful, and he should not take it for granted that others did not feel it was a favor just because they gave him food out of concern.
"By the way, what do you think about the house?" Shen Xiangzhi sat there, waiting for An Hongdou to speak.
An Hongdou thought for a moment and said, "The village has been busy recently, so building the house will probably be delayed for a few days. However, I have some ideas about the location of the house, but I don't know if you agree with it."
After all, they are the ones who pay and they are also the ones with whom they will be living for quite some time in the future. An Hongdou thought that she couldn't just think about herself and had to respect other people's ideas.
Shen Xiangzhi nodded and said, “What I want to tell you is also about the location of the house, but you should tell me first.”
Shen Xiangzhi came here not simply to respond to the country's call, he also had some other things that were not worthy of being told to outsiders, so he did not want to live too close to the people in the village.
"I've seen a good place to build a house. It's right next to the road leading to the outside world. There's more space over there. I can talk to my second uncle and ask him to grant us more space. Then we can build a big wall around the yard. We don't have to worry about any danger. We can also grow more vegetables and fruits in the yard. But that place is already outside the village. I just don't know if you agree?"
For An Hongdou, these are all secondary.
She mainly wanted to stay away from the villagers.
The place she chose happened to be at the foot of a mountain leading to the outside world. This would make it convenient for her to leave the village in the future without having to live under other people's eyes, thus avoiding the risk of even the smallest thing spreading throughout the village.
An Hongdou didn't know that her words just went into Shen Xiangzhi's heart.
What Chen Xiangzhi wanted to do was to stay away from the crowd so that he could do things quietly.
“Since you have an idea, then I’ll listen to you.” Shen Xiangzhi said with a smile.
An Hongdou was satisfied. "What about you? What do you think about the house?"
Since she was willing to listen to him on the site selection, An Hongdou was willing to respect other opinions as long as they were not excessive.
Shen Xiangzhi opened the drawer on the bedside table, pulled out a few sheets of paper, handed them to An Hongdou, and said, “What I want to talk about is the layout of the house. I made some adjustments to the original layout of the house. Take a look first.”
