Chapter 22



Unexpectedly, when it was almost time for dinner, Zhang Xuejun, a childhood friend of Lu Chengchuan, came over.

Zhang Xuejun originally worked in a machinery factory in the city. This afternoon, when he came out of the factory to have lunch, he ran into a person from their village of Qiaoqiao. That person happened to meet Lu Chengchuan this afternoon.

Knowing that Zhang Xuejun and Lu Chengchuan got along well, he told him about Lu Chengchuan's return.

After Zhang Xuejun heard this, it happened to be Sunday, so he borrowed a colleague's bicycle and returned.

Having not seen each other for two years, the two childhood friends had endless things to talk about. Seeing this, Li Dani cooked two or three dishes for them and also took out a bottle of white wine from her home hide.

The two of them drank and chatted and before they knew it, they had finished a bottle of white wine.

Who knew that these two people couldn't drink much and they both fell down on the table. Old Man Lu was in a hurry to go to the wheat field to grab a seat for his family. After he and Li Dani carried Lu Chengchuan to the bed, he carried Zhang Xuejun and sent him home alone.

Wang Xiao'e was secretly happy, thinking that this was really a help to her.

She was originally racking her brains to figure out a reasonable excuse to get her uncle to stay and help without arousing suspicion.

Now that she was lying in bed, she didn't have to worry about it anymore.

But she still needed a reason to stay at home.

She looked up suddenly and saw Choudan playing next to the chicken coop. She walked over and saw a pool of chicken shit next to it, so she pushed him into the chicken shit.

Without caring whether Choudan was crying or not, he ran into the house and gave the illusion that he was not there.

When Li Dani heard the crying and came out of the toilet in a panic, Wang Xiao'e then slowly walked out of the room.

So the story goes that Choudan accidentally fell into the chicken shit, and she had to stay to give Choudan a bath.

Now that everyone who should leave has left, the two-year-old kid doesn't know anything yet, so she doesn't have to worry at all.

Afraid that Choudan would cry, she stuffed a piece of rock candy into his mouth, and gave him a basin of water and a bottle, letting him play there by himself.

Children love water, and Choudan is no exception. He squatted beside the basin and had a lot of fun.

After settling the stinky eggs, Wang Xiao'e quickly took out the medicine from her pocket and went into the kitchen.

She put the medicine grains on the chopping board and rolled them into medicine dough with a rolling pin.

Then she swept all the medicinal powder into the boiled water that she had cooled in advance, and added a handful of sugar.

She picked up the chopsticks and stirred for a while until the white sediment was no longer visible at the bottom of the bowl. Then Wang Xiao'e picked up the chopsticks and licked it with her tongue.

It tasted sweet, without any bitterness at all. She smiled with satisfaction, then pushed open the door of the west room holding the big bowl of water.

She didn't turn on the light, fearing that Lu Chengchuan would see her in the light and would instinctively resist.

With the help of the moonlight outside the window, she slowly walked to Lu Chengchuan's bed.

"Chengchuan, get up and drink some water," Wang Xiao'e called softly.

After getting drunk, Lu Chengchuan was sleeping soundly. When he heard 놋그 calling him, he answered in a daze, turned over and went back to sleep.

"Chengchuan, Chengchuan, sit up and drink some water." Wang Xiao'e raised her voice and called him several times in a row.

Lu Chengchuan responded vaguely and never woke up.

Seeing this, Wang Xiao'e put the bowl of water in her hand on the table next to the bed, and then took Lu Chengchuan's arms with both hands and pulled him towards her.

After pulling it to a certain height, she sat down behind Lu Chengchuan, supporting Lu Chengchuan with her body, and then reached out to pick up the bowl of water on the table.

"Chengchuan, drink some water. You will feel better after drinking some water."

Wang Xiao'e put her mouth close to Lu Chengchuan's ear and shouted at him.

After drinking, there is usually a burning sensation in the throat, and the tongue is dry, and you will subconsciously want to drink water.

Although Lu Chengchuan was still drunk, as soon as his lips touched the edge of the bowl, he instinctively opened his mouth and drank it up.

There was sugar in the bowl of water, which made it particularly enjoyable to drink. Only after he drank the entire bowl of water did he slowly regain consciousness.

Lu Chengchuan suddenly felt as if someone was hugging him from behind. He was startled, opened his eyes abruptly, and jumped to the side.

Seeing clearly that there was indeed a figure behind him, he shouted, "Who are you? Why are you in my room?" While speaking, he had already jumped down from the bed nimbly.

"Chengchuan, it's me." Wang Xiao'e didn't expect him to wake up suddenly. She panicked and quickly stood up from the bed.

"Sister-in-law, why are you... in my room?" A bad idea suddenly popped up in Lu Chengchuan's mind.

Wang Xiao'e also stood up from the bed, "Chengchuan, don't think too much. I just heard you shouting that you were thirsty and wanted to drink water, so I quickly brought a bowl of water over. I didn't expect that I couldn't wake you up, so I helped you up and brought the water to your mouth, and then you drank the water."

Lu Chengchuan felt a little embarrassed when he heard this, "So that's the case, thank you sister-in-law."

"It's okay, go to sleep, I'm going to give Stinky Egg a bath."

Hearing her say this, Lu Chengchuan suddenly remembered that there was a movie showing in the village tonight, so he asked, "Sister-in-law, why didn't you go to see the movie?"

Wang Xiao'e then told Lu Chengchuan the story of how Choudan fell and got covered in chicken shit.

"So that's how it is. Then, sister-in-law, you should get busy."

"Okay, then you go back to sleep. I'm going to leave first."

Wang Xiao'e said this as she picked up the bowl and walked out, not forgetting to close the door for him when she reached it.

Then, from outside came the voice of Wang Xiao'e calling Choudan to take a bath. Everything seemed so normal and natural.

Lu Chengchuan thought back to the scene in the room just now. Apart from Wang Xiaoe supporting him from behind, she did not do anything excessive to him.

He finally felt relieved and lay back on the bed.

At the old Su's house, Qin Li finally came out after dawdling for a while, because she felt that the medicine in Su Wan's body was about to take effect.

Su Wan was very calm and didn't rush her until Qin Li felt it was almost time and called her to go. Only then did she follow Qin Li out the door.

Qin Li locked the door, and the two of them slowly walked towards the east end of the village.

At this moment the moon rose, illuminating the whole village.

Qin Li seemed to be in a good mood. As they walked, she kept talking to Su Wan about whose family this was and who that was, as well as how close their relationship was to the Su family.

Su Wan pretended to be very interested and asked a few questions occasionally. Qin Li patiently answered her questions one by one.

Qin Li kept observing Su Wan while she was talking. Seeing that she seemed to have no reaction, she felt anxious.

I thought maybe the effect of the medicine was slow, so I should wait a little longer.

On summer nights in the countryside, the sounds of frogs and insects can be heard from time to time on both sides of the road.

The movie had already started, and gunshots could be heard from time to time. It seemed that a gun war movie was being shown tonight.

After leaving the east end of the village and walking a little further ahead, you will arrive at the open-air cinema next to the wheat field.

A large group of people sat in front of the screen, all watching intently.

"Qin Li, why don't we just stand outside and watch for a while, and don't bother grandma and mom?"

Qin Li was thinking the same thing, so it would be convenient for her to do it later.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, but I have to go tell mom and them, so she won't worry if she can't see us." Qin Li looked very sensible.

In fact, she was not afraid of Xu Guixiang worrying, she was afraid that they would ruin her good thing.

Qin Li came back soon, and the two found a place to stand and watched for a few minutes. Qin Li suddenly felt very hot and fanned herself in front of her face with her hands a few times.

Su Wan saw this and knew that her medicine was coming.

He pretended to be in pain, scratched his body with his hands, and even unbuttoned one of his collars that was buttoned tightly.

"Oh! It's so hot and uncomfortable. Qin Li, I don't want to watch anymore. Let's go back."
