Chapter 240 The Fire of Love



With Erhua's funding, Xiaohua and Xiaowu opened their small lathe workshop.

Xiaohua was cautious and only bought one device, waiting to expand after everything went smoothly.

The two young men worked day and night, full of energy.

The lathe started humming, the noise filled the air, and the two men talked at the top of their voices, it was very lively. At the end of the day, their heads and faces were covered with black engine oil, as if they had just crawled out of a mine.

Xiaowu was particularly enthusiastic about his work. Because his face was ruined, he didn't like to go out, so he liked to tinker with some iron lumps to pass the time.

As long as the machine was turned on, he felt like he was wound up, and he couldn't hide his excitement.

At this moment, he forgot that he was different from others. With the oil on his face, he looked similar to Xiaohua.

No, he is taller and stronger, and looks even more embarrassing than Xiaohua.

Just across from the small workshop, a pair of sisters from other places rented a house. The elder sister worked in the woolen mill in town, and the younger sister took care of the housework at home.

My sister is as beautiful as a lotus emerging from the water, with glowing white skin, waist-length black hair that likes to fall on her shoulders, a round oval face, and when she smiles, the sun loses its color.

My younger sister is like a daffodil, slender and delicate, with fair and tender skin, an oval face, short hair that reaches her ears, and small eyes, but they seem to speak when she looks at people.

Xiaohua likes to stand at the door to rest when she is tired. Occasionally she sees her sister going to work, and occasionally she meets her coming home from get off work.

His heart was trembling. She was so beautiful. He sighed in his heart again and again.

But he didn't show it because Xiaowu didn't have a partner yet.

The small workshop had been open for a few months, and they saw each other every day, so they naturally started talking to each other.

The elder sister's name is Xiaomei and the younger sister's name is Xiaofang. Their hometown is thousands of miles away. The two sisters are working outside, so it is difficult to find out more about them.

As for why my sister didn’t go out to work, it was because she had a disability in her hand, which she had since she was born. One of her hands was shorter.

At first, both sides were a little embarrassed to say hello.

Until one day, Xiaofang was lighting a coal stove outside and accidentally ignited the wood next to it. Seeing the fire getting bigger and bigger, Xiaowu didn't care about anything else and took the bucket out to work.

The fire went out, but the fire of love suddenly ignited.

That day, Xiaowu's face was dark, while Xiaofang's face was glowing white.

Xiaowu was majestic and Xiaofang was graceful that day.

Xiaofang brought out a basin of water for her benefactor to wash his face, but he kept shaking his head.

"I don't want to wash anymore," he said.

"Go wash it, and then I'll make you a bowl of noodles." Xiaofang said.

"No, don't scare you."

She smiled and said, "I'm not afraid of you."

The clear and sweet voice is the sound of water droplets dripping from narcissus petals.

Xiaofang handed over her snow-white handkerchief, and Xiaowu clearly saw that the hand was a little shorter.

He didn't mind, not at all.

The flame of love ignited on the withered grassland, spread rapidly, and burned all shackles to ashes.

Xiaohua was shocked by the lightning-fast and brave love.

Wow, it turns out you, Xiaowu, are quite capable! I've been thinking about finding a partner for you every day!

Xiao Huale didn’t sleep all night!

"Xiao Wu, I'm going to give you a big red envelope when you get married!"

The two of them moved a small coffee table to the door of the workshop and drank beer with peanuts.

"Brother, just come and help me. I can't accept the red envelope." Xiaowu declined.

"Why not? If you don't want it, I won't feel at ease!"

Xiaowu was helpless. No matter how many times he tried to persuade Xiaohua, it was useless. Xiaohua kept thinking about what happened in the past.

Xiaofang mixed some cold dishes, a cucumber and some dried beef.

Xiaohua ate a piece of beef and couldn't help but praise Xiaofang's cooking skills.

Xiao Wu said with some pride: "Brother, what about you?"

"What about me?"

"Hey! What do you think? Of course I'm asking you about finding a partner!"

“…”

Xiaohua did not answer because his soul was gone at that moment.

Xiaomei came back from outside on a bike, her long hair swinging along with her graceful body. He looked at her eagerly, almost drooling.

She smiled and nodded at the two of them. The hibiscus flowers were ripe, and Xiaohua smelled the refreshing fragrance.

Xiao Wu nudged him and said, "Brother, are you interested in Xiao Fang's sister? Let us introduce you to someone!"

Xiaohua followed her gaze all the way inside until she slipped into the house.

He did not deny Xiaowu's question.

He had been coveting Xiaomei for a long time, but as he said before, as long as Xiaowu was single, he would never look for one.

But now Xiaowu has Xiaofang, and his wild horse heart, which is trapped by the fence, is roaring to the sky, and the neighing can be heard high and far.

"I can handle her myself without you helping me." Xiaohua was determined to get her.

After all, he has always been very confident about his appearance.

So he came to open the door early in the morning every day and closed it late at night.

Every now and then, he would bring vegetables, sweet potatoes, rice, and oil to the two sisters, and he almost moved his home there.

Xiaofang felt a little embarrassed, but Xiaomei accepted it generously.

Whenever he sees Xiaohua on the way to and from get off work, he will talk to him enthusiastically, and his words may seem like he's trying to find out about his family's financial situation.

When Xiaohua talked to her, she responded enthusiastically, but when he asked her to go shopping in the town, she declined;

Xiaohua is so busy that he doesn't have time to eat for the whole day, but Xiaomei is busy serving him food all morning on her day off.

In short, you come and I go, if you come again, I will retreat.

After a few rounds, Xiaohua understood.

Xiaomei is not a hibiscus flower, but a smart and clever little fox.

Hello little fox, he likes it too!

He heard from Xiaofang that his family was poor, with an older brother and a younger brother and sister.

My brother has reached marriageable age, but his family has no money, so his parents plan to marry him off to earn the bride price.

Xiaomei didn't want to, so she sneaked out with Xiaofang.

After hearing the whole story, Xiaohua felt even more sympathetic towards Xiaomei.

She wanted to find out about her family's financial situation. Xiaohua understood that Xiao Niangyu had suffered too much and it was natural for her to want to live a better life.

Then take her to see it with her own eyes!

"Xiaomei," he called Xiaomei who was getting off work.

"Xiaohua, are you still busy? The sun has set. Let me bring you a basin of water to wash your face." Xiaomei always smiles.

"We're not busy. We haven't finished our work yet. We still have to work the night lights today." He was holding something in his hand.

"Will you take a rest tomorrow?" he asked.

"Yes, rest."

"Come to my house and have a seat. Mom and Dad are here and I can make you a delicious meal to nourish you." He said cheerfully.

Xiaomei lowered her head and said nothing. She seemed to have a smile on her face, and it was unclear whether she was willing or not.

After a while, she nodded and said, "Okay."

Xiaohua excitedly knocked on the wall with the tool in his hand and laughed. Xiaomei's face turned red and she quickly went into the house.

Xiao Wu stuck his head out: "Brother, you can do it!"

"Of course you do. Don't you see who I am?"
