Chapter 26
Zhou Yao has wanted to show off for a long time.
He had never found the right opportunity before, and now he finally got this chance. He didn't care whether his image would collapse in the eyes of the villagers, so he just showed off.
Thanks to the fact that this white shirt looks really good on Zhou Yao, making him look less ruffian, and making people feel that he doesn't speak as aggressively as before. Otherwise, everyone would have turned around and left, and no one would stay here to listen to you.
But just because he is thick-skinned doesn't mean Wen Yue is also thick-skinned.
Seeing that everyone's attention had shifted from Zhou Yao to her, Wen Yue was so embarrassed that her toes were tapping the ground, but she still answered their questions in a good mood.
"It's made of cotton. Cotton is more comfortable."
"This dress is not suitable for working. It is not very convenient."
"If you really want to learn, I'll give you the drawings I drew at home. Just follow the instructions. It's not that difficult..."
Zhou Yao said he was satisfied, but when he turned around he found that his wife was surrounded by people. Her petite figure looked so weak and helpless in the crowd.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and squeezed into the crowd without any courtesy.
He grabbed Wen Yue's thin shoulders with his long arms and led her out, saying nonchalantly: "It's getting late, let's go home first, you guys should do something too, don't just stand here like an idiot."
After saying this, without waiting for anyone to react, he walked away with warmth, leaving everyone with only a very elegant back.
Villagers: "..."
The question is not finished yet, are you just thinking about your own pleasure?
"Don't mention it, Zhou Yao has really changed a lot after getting married. He's not as fierce as before. He was laughing the whole time when he was talking just now!"
"I heard that he bought a sewing machine for Wen Yue, and it cost more than two hundred yuan!"
"When did this happen? They even bought a sewing machine. Tsk tsk, this guy treats his wife really well. If I had known earlier, I should have introduced my niece to him. My niece has a big butt, she will definitely be able to give birth to a son! Wen Yue's small arms and legs..."
"Wen Yue has changed a lot. When she was at her uncle's house before, she never spoke or called anyone she met, and she had a gloomy face all day long. Look, she smiled when she spoke just now. She has gained some weight and looks much prettier, prettier than her cousin."
"If Zhou Yao could work harder in the fields, the couple would definitely have a good life."
"He has a good father, and he probably left a lot of money, which must be enough for them to spend for several years..."
Zhou Yao and Wen Yue were previously the hottest topics in the village, and now seeing how harmoniously the two protagonists got along and how much they had changed, the villagers were discussing the topic with great interest.
After showing off today, Zhou Yao's reputation and fame in the village have improved a lot.
-
Wen Yue came out of the crowd and breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and glared at Zhou Yao with a frown on her face. "Don't bring me along when you show off in the future."
She was not used to being surrounded by so many people and couldn't handle it at all.
"I don't like to hear people praise you." Zhou Yao turned his head to meet her slightly accusing eyes, raised the corners of his lips and smiled a little shamelessly, "That won't work. You made this dress, so you must be included."
Wen Yue's eyes widened, and her clear pupils reflected Zhou Yao's bad look. This man is so shameless!
She threatened: "Then I won't make clothes for you anymore."
"Hiss." Zhou Yao compromised, "Okay, I won't take you with me."
That's more like it!
Wen Yue was satisfied.
Not long after arriving home, Li Nianqiu got the message and rushed over. She and Li Xiangdong both carried bamboo baskets on their backs, which were tied tightly on their shoulders, and it could be seen that there were a lot of things inside.
Wen Yue quickly pointed at Zhou Yao and asked him to help carry it.
Zhou Yao said nothing, but walked forward without complaint, picked up a bamboo basket and brought it into the room. Then he very tactfully left the room and walked towards the kitchen, leaving the space for the three girls.
Wen Yue lifted the dry straw covering the top and saw plastic beads of various colors and sizes, as well as other small decorations that looked shiny and pretty, filled in the pockets.
For example, there are colorful ribbons and the simplest, undecorated hairpins.
The other backpack was filled with cloth and colored yarn of various colors.
Wen Yue was a little surprised: “Buying so much”
"Not much, only 50 or 60 yuan, and I still have more than half left." Li Nianqiu smiled, "We have to make more. This business is a one-time thing. If you sell well, it will take others a long time to make the same one and compete with you for the market."
"I have final exams next week, so I can't come to help until summer vacation. You'll have to do it on your own for the next few days."
Li Nianqiu felt a little embarrassed.
Wen Yue waved her hands, her eyes curved: "It's okay, I'm usually bored at home anyway, so I like to play around with things."
Li Nianqiu looked at her smiling so innocently, his eyes slightly helpless: "Wen Yue, doing business is different from doing leisure time when you are bored. With the latter, you can do it whenever you want and rest whenever you don't want to. With the former, you have to do it mechanically and repeatedly, which is hard to stick to."
Especially now that Wen Yue was being spoiled so well by Zhou Yao, Li Nianqiu guessed that she might not be able to hold on for long.
But these are minor issues.
"You just need to finish one of the finished products in the next few days. When I have a holiday, I will bring Xiangdong to help. But there are only three of us, so it may not be enough... We will talk about it when the time comes. If it really doesn't work, we can hire someone to help. I'm sure someone will be willing to come if we pay them."
Li Nianqiu has become accustomed to taking three steps ahead and thinking a lot.
Wen Yue was a little slow to follow Li Nianqiu's train of thought. Before she could react to the previous sentence, she heard her talking about the future arrangements. Her expression was dazed.
The heroine is worthy of being the heroine, she has a good brain!
Wen Yue was too lazy to think about it, she just did whatever Nian Qiu said. So she smiled and responded: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, whatever you say is what it is!"
Li Nianqiu laughed and sighed again: "Zhou Yao is so good to you."
Wen Yue is puzzled: "What does this have to do with Zhou Yao?"
"Then I'll go back first. I'll come to help you after the exams next week." Li Nianqiu stood up and prepared to go out, but stopped halfway and turned back and said, "Don't tell anyone about this. Let's make money secretly first."
Wen Yue nodded and agreed: "Okay, I won't tell!"
She didn't know many people here, and she seldom went out, so she had no one to talk to about this.
Wen Yue saw Li Nianqiu and her sister off from the yard, and walked towards the kitchen humming a little tune.
Zhou Yao had already washed and cut the vegetables for dinner. He was now washing the rice, washing it carefully twice before pouring it into the pot. He also washed two sweet potatoes, cut them into pieces and threw them into the rice, intending to make some sweet potato rice.
Hearing the noise, he turned his head and looked over. His dark eyebrows raised slightly: "What were you talking about? You look so happy."
"I won't tell you." Wen Yue replied with a smile, "Nian Qiu said that this matter cannot be told to anyone, so I can't tell you."
Zhou Yao: ""
Zhou Yao rolled up his sleeves, his strong forearm muscles slightly tensed, his face gloomy, and strode over to her. He grabbed her wrist and twisted it, looking like he was about to attack her. He walked towards her and stopped in front of her.
His height of nearly 1.9 meters brought a strong sense of oppression. He did not say anything, but just looked down, with an obscure emotion in his deep and dark eyes. His eyes became darker and darker, and looked very complicated and unpredictable.
"You, what are you going to do?" Wen Yue swallowed fearfully and slowly backed away.
You won't be angry and want to hit someone, right? Domestic violence is not acceptable!
Zhou Yao's long, slender, thick eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes. He tightened his face and leaned forward slightly.
The two of them were facing each other, so close that their breaths were intertwined. Wen Yue's eyes were shining, and her mind was full of love, but she caught a glimpse of Zhou Yao raising his fist.
She closed her eyes subconsciously and said harshly: "Zhou Yao, if you dare to hit me, I will never forgive you..."
"Look at you, you're so scared." Zhou Yao flicked Wen Yue's forehead with his finger and couldn't help laughing. "I've always said I don't hit women. I don't know what you're afraid of."
"I'll go light a fire."
Wen Yue opened her eyes: "...Zhou Yao, you are really sick."
It would scare her.
"Well, you are right, I am sick. Do you have any medicine to cure me?" Zhou Yao sat in front of the stove with his arms and legs spread out, laughing in a somewhat ruffian way. He picked up the dry grass beside him, lit it and stuffed it into the stove.
The dancing firelight reflected on his face, and his cold brows softened a lot.
Wen Yue curled her toes when she heard this.
Oh my god, what a greasy and corny conversation!
She hissed, shook the words out of her mind, touched the goose bumps on her body, and turned to cook.
"Lao Fang and I are going to go to the market in the next few days." Zhou Yao stuffed firewood into the stove.
Wen Yue said "oh", blinked and looked down at Zhou Yao: "Are you going to sell the goods that Uncle Sun brought you?"
He nodded casually, "Sell it out early and rest early, so I can take you to the movies."
"Hey, but I will be very busy later." Wen Yue's eyelashes trembled, and Xiao Li ran out uncontrollably, "Let's talk after I'm done with my work."
Zhou Yao stared at her little pear for a while, raised his chin and said: "Okay, you are the busy person."
After eating and taking a shower, Wen Yue was still very excited and couldn't sleep.
She simply took out a pen and paper to draw a picture, and planned to make jewelry according to the picture on the paper tomorrow. She was thinking about it so seriously that she didn't realize how much time had passed until there was a knock on the door.
“Thump.”
"Hmm who?" Wen Yue's thoughts were interrupted.
"I." Zhou Yao's voice came from outside the door, a little sleepy, and urged in a hoarse voice: "It's very late, why haven't you slept yet?"
Is it late?
Wen Yue looked up at the sky outside the window. The night was dark, and the sky looked like an ink strip, making the moon and stars even brighter and more prominent.
It seems to be very late.
Wen Yue suddenly realized, put down her pencil, stretched her back, and replied: "I'll go to sleep right away, I'll go to sleep right away."
"Don't stay up so late." Zhou Yao warned, and the footsteps faded away.
After coming out of her serious state, Wen Yue realized that she was sleepy. She got up yawning, turned off the light and went to bed.
…
Now that she had something to do, Wen Yue felt much better.
I woke up early in the morning, washed up, ate something, and then sat in front of the sewing machine, sewing according to the pattern I drew last night.
Cover the big bow with a layer of colored yarn, thread a few plastic beads with holes in the middle, and fix it on the hairpin with glue.
Completed one!
Wen Yue admired the finished product with a smile for a moment, put it aside and continued with the next one.
My little sister loves the beads made from the smallest beads. She liked it when she was little, and she still likes it when she grows up, but she was less interested in it then.
But this is also the reason why she has seen so many beautiful accessories, and there is nothing like this in this era.
Wen Yue smiled brightly, glanced at the finished product next to her, and praised herself in her heart.
In the next few days, Wen Yue and Zhou Yao were busy with their own things, and their schedules were fully scheduled and particularly fulfilling.
However, when all the finished products were made and Wen Yue started to make the second batch, she finally understood what Li Nianqiu meant by what he had said before.
For her, crafting in her spare time is a hobby and a pastime, but when a pastime becomes a job, it feels like torture!
Wen Yue lay on the sewing machine and sighed.
Nian Qiu is really amazing. She could guess this in advance. No wonder she could become the richest woman with a huge fortune.
But if you want to do it, you must do it well and not give up halfway.
Wen Yue stood up and stretched her body a few times, took a deep breath, and sat down again to continue operating the sewing machine.
"Tick, tick, tick, tick..."
By the time Li Nianqiu came back from his final exams, Wen Yue had already made a basket of finished products.
"Your husband is not at home again." Li Nianqiu came over with her sister after finishing her work. Seeing that Wen Yue was the only one in the room, she asked casually.
"He went to the market to sell goods, so let's not talk about him." Wen Yue pulled Li Nianqiu's wrist and walked into the house, her tone excited, "Come and see how the jewelry I made is."
Seeing how happy she was, Li Nianqiu also smiled and quickly followed her: "You can tell without even looking, it must be very beautiful."
The three of them entered the house and immediately saw the sewing machine table that was almost piled with things, and a basket of finished hair accessories next to it.
"I also made a few necklaces and bracelets. These beads are pretty. I think they can be sold for money. Take a look." Wen Yue had been holding it in for a long time.
During this period, Zhou Yao went out early and came back late every day. She was busy during the day and fell asleep early at night. She left some midnight snacks for Zhou Yao and went to bed. The two of them didn't have much time to meet, and she couldn't find anyone to show off to!
Li Nianqiu looked at the bead bracelet and necklace that Wen Yue took out from the bamboo basket, and praised them generously: "They look great. Let's sell them together when the time comes."
"Nianqiu, do you know how to use a sewing machine?" Wen Yue smiled shyly and whispered, "I'm a little tired of it these days."
Li Nianqiu shook his head: "I can learn, just teach me."
"good!"
Before teaching Li Nianqiu how to use the sewing machine, Wen Yue first told Li Xiangdong how to string beads to look good, and then showed the finished product to the little girl to learn from. Or if she thought the combination would look better, she could follow her ideas.
"I understand, Sister Wen Yue." Li Xiangdong responded obediently, moved a stool and sat next to the bamboo basket filled with beads, and started working seriously.
Wen Yue began to teach Li Nianqiu how to use the sewing machine.
Using a sewing machine is not difficult, but it is actually quite difficult. If you go too fast, the stitches between each stitch will be loose, and if you go too slow, they will be dense, which is difficult to control.
Wen Yue was familiar with sewing machines because she had often dealt with them in her previous life.
An hour later.
Li Nianqiu stood up from the bamboo chair with a sigh and said helplessly: "It seems that I don't have any talent in this area."
"..." Wen Yue looked at the piece of cloth on the table for practice and sighed deeply, "Then I'll do it myself. You guys just need to chat with me."
I thought Nian Qiu was omnipotent, but I didn't expect that there were things that she could never learn no matter how hard she tried.
"Sister Wen Yue, why don't you let me try?" Li Xiangdong volunteered and raised his hand.
Wen Yue turned her gaze towards her: "Okay, you sit here."
"Nian Qiu, your sister is much more talented in this than you." Wen Yue smiled as she watched the little girl's movements like a real woman.
Li Nianqiu raised the corner of his lips, touched his sister's head, and said softly: "My Xiangdong is indeed better than me, so you teach her and I will string the beads."
"With just the three of us, the speed is too slow. I'll find a few people to help in the next two days. I think we can sell a finished product for one to five yuan. For simple beads like this, we can pay 10 cents for the labor fee for a string, and 50 cents for sewing... What do you think?"
Li Nianqiu was doing three things at once, sitting on a small stool, stringing beads, thinking, and asking Wen Yue's opinion at the same time.
She doesn't speak slowly.
Wen Yue was also stringing beads. Those words went into her ears, went around, and went out the other side, not entering her brain at all. She blinked, her eyes were blank for two seconds, and then she smiled sweetly and said with great trust: "It's all right, just do as you say."
"Don't you have any ideas?" Li Nianqiu asked with a raised eyebrow.
Wen Yue shook her head honestly: "No." She simply couldn't think of so many things, or rather, she was too lazy to think about them, after all, she was used to a comfortable life.
This heavy trust put a lot of pressure on Li Nianqiu, but she liked to challenge difficulties, so she said confidently: "Okay, then you just wait for the money."
Wow, this speech is so cool, is this the domineering female president?
Warm and starry eyes.
This was the scene Zhou Yao saw when he got home.
The wife he married looked at the other girl with sparkling eyes, and they both looked at each other with smiles on their faces.
This picture looks strange no matter how you look at it.
"...What are you doing?" Zhou Yao took two steps forward and approached the room. His tall figure stood in the middle, blocking the two people's line of sight.
"You came back so early today," Wen Yue said with a surprised expression, "Didn't you see? We were busy." She shook the beads in her hand, her eyes smiling into little crescents.
"The goods are selling very well this time." Zhou Yao casually pulled out a small stool nearby and sat down next to Wen Yue.
The stool was too small for him, and there were many people and things in the room, so he had nowhere to put his long legs, so he could only put them together. With his hands on his knees and his upper body slightly leaning forward, this posture was barely comfortable.
It just seems like he was treated a little unfairly.
The room was not very big, and now there were a lot of materials piled up, so the space was much smaller. Wen Yue was always bumped by Zhou Yao's arm, and she sighed and frowned: "Move to the side."
"I can't move. There's no room." Zhou Yao straightened his back and leaned back, motioning Wen Yue to look at the sundries piled next to him, and waved his hands helplessly.
Wen Yue blinked: "Then you can go out. Nianqiu, Xiangdong and I will stay here. It's too crowded for you to stay here."
Zhou Yao: ""
Isn't this his home?
He tutted his words, curled his lips, and replied lazily: "No, I just like staying here."
Zhou Yao stretched out his hand, grabbed a handful of beads, and slowly strung them together. The beads were made particularly small by his big hands, and they could easily fall from his fingers to Wen Yue's feet.
He bent over to pick it up, and the stool creaked as it moved back.
A tall and strong figure loomed over Wen Yue, and a strong surge of hormones washed over her face.
She could feel the heat of the palm on her leg, which was transmitted to her skin through the thin fabric. Wen Yue felt that Zhou Yao's palm was electrified, and the tingling sensation went straight to her heart.
Zhou Yao was wearing a tank top today, and his back muscles bulged as he moved, catching Wen Yue's eyes.
She didn't dare to move, and held her breath for a moment, and only breathed a sigh of relief after Zhou Yao stood up. Then she found that the beads of the bracelet she had just strung on had been squeezed out of the string because she had squeezed it too tightly, and she had to re-string it.
Wen Yue's eyebrows immediately raised, and she used her free hand to poke Zhou Yao's penis. The first time she poked it, it felt soft, but the second time it became a little hard, and she changed her words: "You haven't had a good rest these days. It's still early now. Why don't you go back to your room and take a nap? I'll call you when I'm done cooking."
"Care about me" Zhou Yao's lips curled up uncontrollably.
Wen Yue nodded, her voice full of emotion, worry and concern in her eyes: "Yes, you have been so tired these past two days, leaving early and returning late. If you don't rest well, what will I do if your body collapses? Don't make me worry."
"Okay then. I'll go to sleep for a while." Zhou Yao fell for it. He was indeed a little sleepy, so he stood up with a beaming look on his face.
Just as he turned around, he suddenly remembered something and took out two tube-shaped things from his pants pocket and threw them into Wen Yue's arms: "Seeing those girls like it so much, I left two for you, take them and play with them."
After saying this, he strode out.
The room suddenly became much more spacious.
Wen Yue took the thing in her arms, opened the lid and saw that it was a lipstick. She smiled, turned around and carefully placed it on the bedside.
When she turned around, she met Li Nianqiu's meaningful smiling eyes, and her cheeks immediately flushed.
...forgot there was someone else in the room.
