After Chen Jianguo came in, he squatted beside the bed. A faint smell of alcohol entered Xu Zhaodi's nose.
He put his big hand into the quilt. Xu Zhaodi was worried that he was deliberately freezing her, so she quickly moved to the wall before his hand reached into her clothes.
Chen Jianguo chuckled twice: "I knew you weren't asleep yet."
"Go wash your face quickly. You reek of alcohol. Where did you drink?"
"Old Feng called us to have dinner. Let's prepare a table later."
"Okay, let's invite them to our home during the National Day."
Chen Jianguo was a little excited. He came over and kissed Xu Zhaodi on the face before going to wash up.
He moved around a lot as soon as he came back. Xu Zhaodi had back pain these days and guessed that her period was coming again.
Chen Jianguo put his arms around her waist and she quickly grabbed his wrist.
"Don't mess around tonight. My back hurts."
"Your period is about to arrive in three or four days, and the brown sugar at home is almost gone. Buy yourself some tomorrow."
Chen Jianguo said so, and then he moved his big hand to the back of Xu Zhaodi's waist and pressed it gently a few times. Xu Zhaodi felt very comfortable and let out a long sigh.
Chen Jianguo pressed for more than twenty minutes, and Xu Zhaodi fell asleep.
His big hand gently moved Xu Zhaodi's flat and smooth belly.
Why is there no response here?
Before the National Day and the autumn harvest and planting holidays, she had already knitted a pair of sleeves, and by the end of the holidays, Chen Jianguo would be able to wear the new clothes.
Zhang Guilan is the store manager, and she also has other tasks.
The day before the holiday, they had their day off at noon.
Xu Zhaodi went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some necessities and some food ingredients.
She wanted to buy some pork, but she really didn't want to see Fugui's face.
The supply and marketing cooperative also had them, so Xu Zhaodi bought some from there, and also bought some fish.
Didn’t Chen Jianguo say he wanted to invite people to his house for dinner? Then she would cook more.
Xu Zhaodi carried a lot of bags and got on the bus back home. When the bus passed the town, Jiang Wan also got on the bus carrying her bags.
As soon as she got on the bus, she saw Xu Zhaodi and sat next to her with a smile.
"Sister, are you guys on holiday too?"
"It's vacation time, isn't there any activity in your school?"
"Starting from the day after tomorrow, let us help the villagers plant wheat on the spot, and also harvest the radishes and cabbages in the fields."
There are actually not many holidays in the first half of the year these days. The school has four holidays: wheat harvest holiday, summer vacation, autumn harvest holiday and winter vacation.
Even during holidays, children still have to follow their teachers to harvest and plant in autumn.
Xu Zhaodi thought that after Chen Jianguo and his friends finished their art performance, they would definitely help the nearby commune to plant wheat.
So, in reality, the National Day holiday is only one day.
When the two got off the car, Jiang Wan saw Xu Zhaodi buying so many things and asked, "Sister-in-law, why did you buy so many things?"
"Your brother Chen said that he wanted everyone to come up to the house for dinner tonight. I thought I'd buy some more food so I don't have to go out tomorrow."
Jiang Wan smiled and said, "That's great. I will have another treat tomorrow night."
Xu Zhaodi smiled, Jiang Wan reached out to help, Xu Zhaodi said: "Let me do it."
"Sister, please don't be polite to me, I am stronger now than before.
Let me help you."
Xu Zhaodi smiled and said, "You have really made a lot of progress."
This girl is really gentle on the outside but strong on the inside.
After Xu Zhaodi returned home, she packed up the things she bought. Xu Zhaodi and her boyfriend ate noodles as they wanted to make dumplings in the evening.
There will be a cultural performance tonight, so I guess Chen Jianguo and the others will be back early.
Mix the noodles, cut a few eggplants left over from the previous few days, marinate them with salt to remove the moisture, add chopped pork belly, and mix with seasonings.
Xu Zhaodi sat alone at the table in the living room, rolling out the dough and wrapping them.
Downstairs, these women didn't see Xu Zhaodi coming back, and now they were all sitting under a big tree.
Thinking about the cultural performance tonight, they wanted to see Xu Zhaodi's performance more than the performance of the art troupe.
"What do you think Xu Zhaodi will perform for everyone?"
Yang Liqiu didn't say anything. She felt uncomfortable after being scolded by Xu Zhaodi in person last time.
"A few days ago, I heard someone singing at home in the corridor, but the voice was too soft and I couldn't hear it clearly.
I thought she wanted to sing.”
"This is really difficult for her. If I were to go on stage, I'm afraid my legs would tremble with fear."
There was a newcomer at the side, silly, asking, "I heard someone say that she didn't want to go on stage, and said whoever wrote her name would be allowed to perform on stage.
I’m just worried that she won’t be the one singing. If she doesn’t go on stage tonight, all the family members in our compound will be embarrassed.”
Yang Liqiu blushed when she heard this.
She really brought up things that were not relevant. She was clearly doing it for the benefit of everyone, but in the end, she got nothing in return for her efforts.
The people nearby winked at the newcomer, but he didn't respond.
She continued, "If this happened to me, I would be angry too. At least I should have informed them."
Yang Liqiu didn't say anything, her face darkened, and she carried her child into the building.
When she went in, someone next to her winked and whispered, "Be careful with your words next time. The person who wrote Xu Zhaodi's name is Yang Liqiu."
The woman then realized that she had said the wrong thing.
The woman's face froze and she pursed her lips.
Seeing that the atmosphere was ruined and it was getting late, the people nearby stood up and said, "Let's all go back and cook dinner. We'll move our stools to watch the cultural performance in the evening."
These people all disappeared in a flash.
Xu Zhaodi made dumplings by scooping out slices of chayote and drizzling red oil on them. The green chayote instantly looked much more delicious.
The vines in the vegetable garden in the backyard have been pulled out, but the soil has not been turned over yet.
Seeing that it was still early, Xu Zhaodi went to the security guard to borrow a hoe to plow the soil.
When she was playing in the front yard, Feng Xueyan and her two siblings were playing in the front yard.
Feng Xueyan looked at Xu Zhaodi and ran over with a smile.
"Aunt Xu, you're back."
"Yeah, do you guys want to play here?"
"Let's play stone throwing. What are you doing, Aunt Xu?"
"I'm going to dig the soil in the backyard."
Feng Xueyan held Xu Zhaodi's hand with one hand, looked up and said, "Then I will go with Aunt Xu."
Feng Xueqin and Feng Zhijun also came.
Xu Zhaodi smiled and said, "Then let's go."
The four of them went to the backyard, and the vegetable garden was full of celery. Xu Zhaodi had never seen this thing before, and the three little ones picked it and ate it.
Feng Xueyan picked a few and went to Xu Zhaodi.
"Auntie, this is for you. It's very sweet."
Xu Zhaodi squatted down and shook her head, saying, "Auntie is not used to eating this, you eat it."
"Auntie, just eat a few. They are very sweet. They are my favorite snack. I'll give them to you."
Xu Zhaodi smiled with relief, reached out and touched Feng Xueyan's soft and furry forehead, opened her mouth, and Feng Xueyan put a few Tiantian into Xu Zhaodi's mouth.
She smiled sweetly: "Auntie, isn't it sweet?"
Xu Zhaodi was almost melted by her soft and cute appearance. She smiled and nodded, "Yeah, it's really sweet."
