Chapter 29



He Xianqiu drank sugar water while waiting for Ji Chenzhou to come back.

The sugar water is sweet and makes people feel happy.

When she finished drinking the sugar water, Ji Chenzhou finally came back.

When He Xianqiu heard the noise, she stood up and walked to the door. She saw Ji Chenzhou standing at the door at a glance.

The bicycle is a Phoenix brand, a 26-bar style bicycle, which is more difficult for women to ride. Most importantly, He Xianqiu doesn't know how to ride it, so she looked at the bicycle with some embarrassment.

Ji Chenzhou saw her dilemma and said, "It's difficult for a woman to ride a 26-bar bicycle. I have nothing to do today, so I'll take you up."

Ji Chenzhou borrowed this bicycle from Erniu, who was his good friend. Erniu was also generous and immediately took out the bicycle and lent it to him as soon as Ji Chenzhou asked.

When He Xianqiu heard this, her eyes lit up and she nodded: "Okay, thank you, Xiao Ji."

Ji Chenzhou smiled and said, "You're welcome. Just be careful sitting in the back seat."

The rear seat of the bicycle was made of iron and was hollow. Ji Chenzhou was afraid that He Xianqiu would not be comfortable sitting on it, so he took a piece of clothing that he couldn't fit into and placed it on the chair as a cushion so that He Xianqiu could sit more comfortably.

He Xianqiu nodded, and after Ji Chenzhou sat in the front seat, she quickly got into the car.

Before leaving, they said goodbye to Mr. Zhong and then left Mr. Zhong's house.

He Xianqiu held on tightly to the handlebars of the back seat, but the dirt road was bumpy, the bike was shaking, and she was a little unsteady on it.

Ji Chenzhou was afraid that He Xianqiu would fall out, so he said in a deep voice: "He Zhiqing, you can hold on to my clothes, the road is too steep."

He Xianqiu nodded: "Okay." Thinking of Ji Chenzhou calling her He Zhiqing just now, she pursed her lips and said, "Little Ji, don't call me He Zhiqing He Zhiqing all the time, just call me Xianqiu."

Ji Chenzhou was silent for a while, then nodded: "Got it, Xian...Xianqiu."

When he said He Xianqiu's name, he paused for a few times because he felt that it was too intimate and a little embarrassed.

He Xianqiu curled her eyes when she heard this: "Well, that's right."

But she didn't notice that Ji Chenzhou's ears were gradually turning red.

Ji Chenzhou was riding a bicycle, and even though he tried his best to avoid the big potholes, the bicycle was still shaking violently.

He Xianqiu grabbed the corner of his clothes and was in a daze. Suddenly, the car flew forward and He Xianqiu crashed into Ji Chenzhou's back.

She was startled and screamed in panic, her hands unconsciously wrapped around Ji Chenzhou's waist.

Ji Chenzhou heard it and couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Xian...Xianqiu, are you okay?"

He Xianqiu came back to her senses and said, "It's okay."

But her hands were still around Ji Chenzhou's waist. Ji Chenzhou had a typical broad shoulder and narrow waist, and it was very safe to hug him. She could even feel the heat coming from his waist with her palms.

He Xianqiu realized that her hands were still around the other's waist. She felt a little uncomfortable and quickly moved them away quietly, as if Ji Chenzhou would not notice.

The commune is quite far away, and it usually takes about two hours to get there. Even if you ride faster it still takes more than an hour.

He Xianqiu sat in the back, holding the corner of Ji Chenzhou's clothes in his hand, looking at the flowers and lush trees on the roadside.

The road was still bumpy and He Xianqiu occasionally accidentally fell on Ji Chenzhou, which happened several times.

He Xianqiu felt a little numb, so she simply hugged Ji Chenzhou's waist with a fearless look on her face. It didn't matter, after all, she was hugging the handsome guy's waist.

Ji Chenzhou was suddenly hugged by her and was stunned for a moment. He almost couldn't drive steadily, but he calmed himself down and continued to step on the pedal and drive forward.

After riding for two hours, they finally arrived at the commune. He Xianqiu was numb from sitting, not to mention Ji Chenzhou, who had been riding a bicycle. His forehead was covered in sweat, which condensed into beads and dripped onto his chin.

When He Xianqiu saw it, he took out a handkerchief and handed it to him, motioning him to wipe it.

Ji Chenzhou shook his head: "No need."

As he said this, he wanted to wipe it with his sleeve and was about to raise his hand to wipe it.

Seeing this, He Xianqiu directly stuffed the handkerchief into his hand: "I have never used this handkerchief, you can use it."

Seeing that He Xianqiu had misunderstood, Ji Chenzhou pursed his lips and said, "That's not what I meant."

"Okay, I understand. Just wipe it off." He Xianqiu nodded.

Ji Chenzhou nodded when he heard it, then wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief. There were a few bamboos embroidered on the handkerchief, which had a delicate fragrance that was elegant and fresh.

Ji Chenzhou wiped the sweat off his face and said softly, "I'll give it to you after I wash it clean."

He Xianqiu shook his head: "I have many handkerchiefs, this one is for you."

"Okay." Ji Chenzhou said in a low voice.

The handkerchief was very comfortable to hold and the fabric was of good quality. He Xianqiu didn't want it and it would be a waste to throw it away, so Ji Chenzhou accepted it.

He folded the handkerchief carefully, afraid that he would damage it with his clumsy hands, and folded it into a small square, then put it in his pocket.

He Xianqiu looked around the commune. Even though she had been there once, she still couldn't help but feel curious.

There are a lot of people in the commune at this moment, with people coming and going, but it is not crowded.

Most people in the commune wore dark-colored clothes, but there were also some pretty young girls wearing brighter clothes.

He Xianqiu was wearing an orange dress. She was very beautiful with fair skin. She stood out in the crowd. People often looked at her. She was a beautiful scenery in the crowd.

The two were walking on the street, and He Xianqiu thought that since they were already at the commune, they should of course go eat something first and then pick up the package.

Just as He Xianqiu was about to speak, Ji Chenzhou spoke first: "How about we go eat first?"

He Xianqiu nodded: "Okay."

Then Ji Chenzhou took her to the state-owned restaurant and found a seat for them to sit down.

When the waiter of the state-owned restaurant saw them, he came over immediately and asked them what they wanted to eat. His voice was very gentle and he did not take the guests lightly as rumored.

He Xianqiu took a look at the menu and ordered a cabbage and braised pork rice, and Ji Chenzhou ordered a pork trotter and vermicelli rice.

After the order was taken, the waiter took the bill and left.

After a while, the waiter shouted at the window: "One serving of cabbage and braised pork with rice and one serving of pork trotter and vermicelli rice is ready."

Ji Chenzhou heard it, stood up, went to the window to get it, and paid the money and ticket.

He Xianqiu sat in his seat waiting. Ji Chenzhou brought over two bowls of rice and placed them on the table.

Then the two of them started eating. He Xianqiu picked up a piece of braised pork. The braised pork was sweet and had very little fat. It was mostly lean meat and not greasy. It was also drizzled with sauce, making it look moist and translucent.

The braised pork is cooked very soft and seems to melt in your mouth, just like eating ice cream.

After eating the braised pork, she ate Chinese cabbage, which is natural and pollution-free. It tastes sweet and refreshing and has a lot of juice.

He Xianqiu ate with a great appetite. The food was so delicious and the portions were very generous.

I have been eating coarse grains these days. I finally get to eat rice when I come to the commune. The state-owned restaurant serves white rice, which tastes sweet. Although it is mixed with some red sorghum, it does not affect the taste of the rice.

He Xianqiu was very satisfied with the meal. She finished a big bowl of rice, although she was a little full.

She rubbed her stomach, then stood up and told Ji Chenzhou that they could go. Ji Chenzhou stood up when he heard that.

Ji Chenzhou had finished eating a long time ago. He always ate quickly, so he put down his bowl and chopsticks and waited for He Xianqiu.

He Xianqiu finished eating, and the two planned to go directly to the post office.

He Xianqiu didn't know where the post office was, so Ji Chenzhou pushed his bicycle to lead the way, and the two walked side by side.

Thinking that it was Ji Chenzhou who paid for the meal, He Xianqiu asked, "Xiao Ji, how much was it just now? I'll give it to you."

Ji Chenzhou shook his head: "No need."

When He Xianqiu heard this, how could this be possible? "No, you still have to give it to me."

She couldn't take advantage of Ji Chenzhou for nothing. After all, Ji Chenzhou probably didn't have much money. If she spent Ji Chenzhou's money, Ji Chenzhou's purse would have less money.

Seeing that she was determined to give it to him, Ji Chenzhou said helplessly, "Really, no need. If you feel bad about it, you can just ask for it back next time you come to the commune."

He Xianqiu thought about it and agreed. She nodded: "Okay then."

Then the two of them chatted from time to time and soon arrived at the door of the post office.

He Xianqiu went into the post office to get something, while Ji Chenzhou was waiting for her outside.

After He Xianqiu entered the post office, he walked to the window and asked the female postman inside: "Hello, are you here to pick up the package?"

The female postman heard the voice and lowered her head to ask, "Where is the courier going? What's its name?"

"He Xianqiu from Qinggang Brigade." He Xianqiu said.

Then the female postman, who was originally sitting and waiting, stood up and took out a large package.

When she turned around, she saw He Xianqiu. She was stunned. She didn't expect this female comrade to be so beautiful. She was the most beautiful person she had ever seen in the commune. She was so envious.

She pursed her lips and handed the package to He Xianqiu: "Your package."

The package was very large, wrapped in a dark blue floral cloth and tied tightly.

He Xianqiu nodded, then thought that the post office had many commemorative stamps, and the older they were, the higher their value.

She remembered that one year she went to an auction where a sheet of stamps was sold for millions, and she asked, "Hello, do you have any stamps?"

The female postman nodded: "Yes."

Then she took out several sheets of stamps and placed them on the table.

He Xianqiu took a look at the stamps and found them to be beautifully made, so she took the latest edition and several other editions.

Then He Xianqiu paid the money and the female postman helped her pack it and put it in a bag.

He Xianqiu thanked him, then took the stamps and placed them on the package, then picked up the package. As soon as she held it in her arms, she found that the package was very heavy, so she could only carry it out with difficulty.

Ji Chenzhou was outside the post office and saw her struggling to hold a huge package.

He hurried over, picked up the package in his hand, and then tied it to the back seat of the bicycle.

As soon as the package left his body, He Xianqiu breathed a sigh of relief and his breathing became smoother.

Then He Xianqiu planned to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things, so the two of them walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative.

The supply and marketing cooperative was very crowded. He Xianqiu felt that she would not be able to squeeze in, so she planned to wait outside until there were fewer people before going in.

Ji Chenzhou knew what she was thinking, so he said, "There aren't many things, and they might be gone soon. Let me go over. What do you want to buy?"

He Xianqiu thought what he said made sense, and after a moment of thought, he said, "Please get me five pounds of fine noodles, three pounds of pork, and three pounds of cakes. Any cakes will do, and three soaps."

As he said this, he handed the money and ticket to Ji Chenzhou, who took it and walked into the crowd.

He Xianqiu watched as Ji Chenzhou slipped into the crowd like a loach.

Because he was tall, He Xianqiu saw him squeeze into the front of the supply and marketing cooperative and buy something. He Xianqiu was stunned.
