Chapter 131 Lounge Chair
"Wife, are you hot?"
Lu Pingan pinched a fan and fanned Shen Xiaoyue.
"It's okay, I'm not that hot, fan yourself, you're sweating."
The two of them had nothing to do at home during the holidays, so they started thinking about making money. As the weather was getting hotter, they thought about making something to cool down.
It is still allowed to set up small stalls selling food.
They did whatever they thought of and adjusted their schedules immediately.
I started to sleep soundly during the day, and started to make jelly when I woke up. After it was done, I put it in well water through an iron bucket and soaked it overnight. I also put a watermelon in the ice. At five o'clock the next day, I rode a bicycle to the county town to sell jelly.
Eating a popsicle early in the morning will get you scolded, but icy cold jelly is very popular.
In the summer, you will sweat even when sitting down to eat soy milk and fried dough sticks. Many people would rather buy some jelly in the morning to cool down and then boil an egg at home.
"Boss, is there anything else?"
"There's one last bowl. Do you want mint water?"
"Yes, yes, add some."
Seeing the jelly bucket empty again quickly, the two of them packed up their stall happily.
On the way back, Shen Xiaoyue acted as a live radio and took a vocabulary book to read to Lu Pingan.
After a holiday, he was surprised to find that he could understand a short English article.
The holidays always pass by extra quickly, and Shen Xiaoyue feels like she hasn't done anything and school is about to start again.
This time, Lu Guodong and the others were obviously used to it. Except for Wu Qingyun who prepared a lot of food for them to take on the road as usual, the others did what they were supposed to do.
"Go, go, go. It's the busy farming season. I won't see you off."
Lu Jun waved his hands and buried his head in the soil enthusiastically. Only Sixia and Siyu, two people who had not started school, and Lu Guoliang, their uncle, were there to see them off.
"Uncle, why don't you come with us to go shopping in Jing City? The department store there is huge and has many styles of clothes."
Lu Guoliang also wanted to go, but there was only one good tailor in the village, and the Harvest Festival was coming soon, and everyone in the village was waiting for him to make clothes for them.
"I'll come find you guys after the Harvest Festival. I can't leave right now. We have several sets of our own that haven't been made yet."
Siyu is fine, maybe the little boy develops late.
Si Xia has grown rapidly in height recently and her previous clothes no longer fit her, so Tan Li quickly contacted Lu Guoliang to make two more sets of clothes.
Lu Guoliang could only sigh as he watched the two of them board the train.
After two months, the house in Jingshi was covered with dust.
Fortunately, they came back a day early to clean the place.
"Xiaoyue, you guys are back?"
Hearing the noise coming from next door, Grandma Wang pulled her husband out to see what was going on.
"Yeah, school is about to start again."
Grandma Wang's husband stood behind her with a stern face, but unfortunately Grandma Wang's height couldn't block him, so he could only stick his head out to greet the two of them.
Grandma Wang always said that her husband didn't like to move. After Shen Xiaoyue got to know them, she found out that her husband didn't like to communicate with others because he had a slight stutter.
The first time she went to visit Grandma Wang but she wasn't there, her husband took a long time to say hello.
Thinking of how Grandma Wang usually liked to chat with others, she felt like laughing.
The love between the two can be described as a burglary-like love.
When Grandma Wang visited distant relatives, she fell in love with her husband at first sight. She thought he looked like a cute mushroom sitting in the corner without saying anything, so she brought the matchmaker to their house directly.
Her husband had never encountered such a situation before, and he stammered for a long time: "I... I didn't..."
"No problem?! That's great, tomorrow happens to be a good day!"
Grandma Wang pretended not to hear what he said next, "I don't agree."
If you follow someone who speaks loudly and as fast as a machine gun, you will never win if you stutter.
After they got married, her husband was forced to speak more fluently to avoid her deliberately distorting his speech every time. He only stuttered when facing strangers.
Sure enough, sometimes two people who are completely opposite can go further.
One likes to talk, the other likes to listen, they can't quarrel, and their life is very harmonious.
Grandma Wang pulled the two of them into her yard and said, "It's okay to clean it later. Come and try it. My husband just made osmanthus yogurt."
Like Lu Ping'an, Grandma Wang likes sweet food.
In addition, Lu Ping'an was sweet-mouthed, and every time he ate their food, he would praise them with words that were never repeated.
Whenever she made something delicious, Grandma Wang liked to drag the two of them to try it together.
Go in with an empty stomach and walk out with a full stomach.
Shen Xiaoyue declined Grandma Wang's invitation to dinner.
If she ate any more, she was afraid that she and Lu Ping'an would vomit it out even if they bent down to sweep the floor.
“I’m so full, rub it for me.” Shen Xiaoyue lay lazily on the chair and directed Lu Pingan.
This recliner will rock back and forth, and it is very hypnotic to lie on it while enjoying the cool in the yard.
There was little rain in Beijing, so Shen Xiaoyue simply threw the recliner in the yard.
"good."
Lu Ping'an pulled her up, sat on the recliner, and let her sit on his lap.
“It’s easier this way.”
Shen Xiaoyue's ears felt hot. This was the bad thing about an old married couple. She would have some shameful associations with anything they said.
"hot……"
The place where the two of them were overlapping was soaked with sweat, and it was sticky and uncomfortable in the hot summer.
"Wife, how about we go buy a fan?"
I have seen it in a department store in Beijing before, but it is expensive and the usage time is limited. It cannot be used every day like TV, so the popularity rate is not high. Most people still prefer to use a palm-leaf fan to get through the hottest two or three months.
"No need. The weather will be cool soon. Summer in Beijing goes by faster than in our place."
Lu Ping'an responded and fanned himself even harder.
The palm-leaf fan in his hand was swaying, and the recliner under him was also swaying.
It just started to change a little bit after shaking it a little bit...
His thin lips held her earlobe impatiently, rubbing it stickyly: "Wife..."
"No, it's too hot."
Shen Xiaoyue sat up straighter in disgust.
A stove in winter would turn into a flaming mountain in summer. Except at night, she would try to avoid such large-scale contact.
He was not discouraged by being rejected. He rubbed her waist stealthily and brought her back into his arms.
From time to time, the kiss moved down a little, and the kiss that originally lingered on the earlobe fell on the collarbone.
The furry head rubbed her neck slowly.
"Wife, try it..."
The dense leaves were stacked layer upon layer, and the sunlight filtered through the gaps, sprinkling on the two people like gold fragments.
The rocking chair brought wave after wave of weightlessness. Shen Xiaoyue closed her eyes, her fingers scratched his back, and her hair was covered with fine sweat and stuck to the side of her face.
