As for Jiang Wan, she plans to go back the day after tomorrow, and she doesn't know when she will come back this time.
Over the past six months, Xu Zhaodi had been taking good care of her. Before leaving, she wanted to buy some groceries and cook a meal to thank her.
Zhang Qingdong saw that she looked unhappy and asked, "You are going back, shouldn't you be happy? Why do you look so depressed?
Eat quickly, and clean up your things after you finish eating."
Jiang Wan pursed her lips and said, "Over the past six months, Sister Zhaodi has taken better care of me than you have. I want to go to the city every day. I want to buy her something and cook dinner tonight and invite her to my house for dinner. Do you think it's okay?"
Zhang Qingdong knew that this girl had a good family tradition since she was young, and she was grateful and repaying kindness in everything she did.
She is young, but her way of dealing with people is beyond comparison of ordinary people.
"Okay, I'll go with you this morning, and I'll prepare a table of food in the afternoon, and we'll invite the couple to our house for dinner.
Who else would you like to invite?"
"We don't want anyone else, just the four of us."
She doesn't owe anyone anything.
"OK."
That night, Zhang Qingdong lay on the bed with his hands on the pillow, his deep eyes staring at the dim big-bellied light bulb above his head, his mind filled with Jiang Wan's kiss in the afternoon.
He raised his hand and touched his mouth; it felt soft and cool.
Zhang Qingdong was itching to get married because he would be fourteen after the Chinese New Year.
It seems like I really should get married.
Jiang Wan was still lying on the table reviewing. She was very smart and the material in the book was easy for her, but she didn't want to take it lightly.
Jiang Wan got serious and didn't think about anything else. He continued reviewing until the early morning.
Zhang Qingdong couldn't sleep, so when he went out to the bathroom, he found that the door of Jiang Wan's room was ajar, with a faint light coming from inside.
He tiptoed over and took a look through the crack in the door, and saw Jiang Wan sleeping on the table.
Zhang Qingdong sighed helplessly, pushed the door open gently, picked her up by the waist, put her on the bed, and gently covered her with a quilt.
When Zhang Qingdong stood up to leave, he saw Jiang Wan's long eyelashes like two small fans. His eyes fell on her delicate and moist lips. His mind flashed, and he couldn't help but lower his head and kissed her softly.
His kiss was as gentle as water, with a soft touch and a faint sweetness. The fragrance of Jiang Wan was instantly amplified countless times and penetrated into Zhang Qingdong's brain, stimulating his nerves.
After he came back to his senses, the sound of his heartbeat made him flee Jiang Wan's room quickly like a thief.
He returned to his room and slumped down beside the bed, bending over with his hands on his head.
What the hell did he just do?
Zhang Qingdong raised his hand and slapped himself in the face. Why was he out of control?
Zhang Qingdong regretted it so much that he fell asleep late.
Later, he suffered from insomnia and fell asleep in the early morning.
Jiang Wan slept soundly. She dreamed of the pen Zhang Qingdong gave her and smiled foolishly from time to time.
The next morning, when Zhang Qingdong woke up, Jiang Wan had been reading by lamplight for two hours.
Zhang Qingdong was still yawning when he came out of the room. Jiang Wan heard footsteps and opened the door. A little head popped out from the crack of the door.
"Brother, shall we leave now?"
"Why are you up so early?"
"I got up at four o'clock. I remember I fell asleep on the table last night. When I opened my eyes, I found myself in bed. Did you carry me to bed?"
Zhang Qingdong's heart tightened and he felt a little guilty.
"No, you must have climbed up by yourself."
Jiang Wan scratched his cheek and said to himself, "How strange, why don't I remember it?"
"Go read a book. Don't worry. I'll go to the team and ask for leave from the political commissar. I'll bring you breakfast when I come back."
"Okay, thank you bro."
Jiang Wan closed the door and went back in.
Zhang Qingdong looked at the house in front of him and took a deep breath.
Alas, this thing called love, if you suppress it, it will really kill you.
When Zhang Qingdong went out, he met Chen Jianguo and Xu Zhaodi in the corridor.
Zhang Qingdong said, "Brother, sister-in-law, Xiaowan and I are leaving tomorrow. Xiaowan said she wants to invite you two to dinner at home tonight. You can come directly after get off work."
Xu Zhaodi didn't expect that Jiang Wan would leave so early.
She was different from others, she had a city hukou and was the only one in her family, so she didn't have to go to the countryside, so she just had to say goodbye to the school and leave.
But other people who went to the countryside to work had to go back home to register and then continue working.
Xu Zhaodi said: "Okay, I'll be back early this afternoon."
Chen Jianguo asked: "Has your leave been approved?"
Zhang Qingdong smiled and said, "Approved."
After the three of them went downstairs, Chen Jianguo gave Xu Zhaodi a few words of advice and watched her walk towards the gate of the compound before the two of them entered through a small door on the side.
Zhang Qingdong asked for leave from Political Commissar Zhou, came back, changed into casual clothes, and took Jiang Wan to the county town.
Jiang Wan didn't sleep well last night. When the car was heading towards the county town, she fell asleep on Zhang Qingdong's shoulder.
Zhang Qingdong glanced at her secretly, with the corners of his mouth rising from time to time.
As soon as he arrived in the county town, Zhang Qingdong bought a chicken, a roast duck, several pounds of pork belly and three pounds of shrimp.
The entire supply and marketing cooperative only has three pounds of shrimps, which are only available when the weather is cool. Otherwise, you can’t buy them at other times.
Even if the supply and marketing cooperative has goods, they may not be able to sell them.
This thing has little meat, and most people won’t easily buy it to eat.
Zhang Qingdong also bought a few other dishes. He had already thought about it and planned to have four meat dishes and four vegetable dishes, plus some wine to complete the meal.
Jiang Wan saw Zhang Qingdong buying so many things and gently touched the corner of Zhang Qingdong's clothes.
"Brother, you bought so much meat, I don't know how to cook it."
Zhang Qingdong was amused. Why is this girl so cute?
He whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
"Aren't you going to work this afternoon?"
"You don't have to go all day,"
Jiang Wan smiled foolishly, feeling herself to be quite useless. She had been busy studying, singing, piano and dancing these years. Her mother had kept her from doing any housework. When she stood next to Zhang Qingdong, she looked like a giant baby.
After she is admitted to university, she must learn how to cook well.
Not for anything else, just so that I can take care of myself in the future.
After they finished shopping, Jiang Wan went to the clothing area.
She wanted to buy a piece of clothing for Xu Zhaodi as a commemoration.
Jiang Wan took a look at the clothing section. The clothes were all brightly colored and looked in all colors. She felt that they would not suit Xu Zhaodi.
When I passed by the counter, I saw the leather shoes on it and thought that leather shoes would be okay too.
Jiang Wan said: "Hello comrade, can you please let me have a look at those shoes?"
This is a pair of low-heeled cowhide shoes with velvet. It feels very soft and comfortable in the hand.
The salesperson said, "You have a good eye. These shoes are new arrivals from Haishi a few days ago. They have fur inside. In the winter in the north, ears can freeze off. Wearing these shoes will keep you warm."
Jiang Wan took a look and immediately decided to give Xu Zhaodi a pair of shoes.
"Hello, comrade. How much is it?"
"This pair is fifteen."
Jiang Wan said: "Are there any other styles?"
The salesperson said, “This one is also good.”
Jiang Wan took a look at the shoes. She didn’t really like them very much, but they looked nice as a gift to someone else.
Seeing Jiang Wan was a little hesitant, the salesperson said, "Take a look at this one. It's also quite good."
