Chapter 40 Kiss!
Jiang Duo restrained himself, forcing himself to endure the inexplicable heat, and then silently loaded Mingzhu's things onto the bicycle.
She not only bought dozens of soybeans, but also a few kilograms of coarse noodles, a little meat and some vegetables... There was also a small bamboo basket with many silkworms squirming in it.
While tying the things, Jiang Duo asked, "I didn't see any silkworms for sale in the supply
and marketing cooperative. Where did you buy them from?" Mingzhu stood aside and answered truthfully with a smile, "I went to the black market. The things sold there are much cheaper than in the supply and marketing cooperative."
Hearing those two words, Jiang Duo raised his eyes and looked at her, "Did you sell your tofu on the black market?"
"That's not the case. I was lucky today. I don't know who blessed me, but as soon as I got off the car, I met someone from the supply and marketing cooperative who was going to the countryside to buy things. Within a few minutes, I sold all the tofu to him... I didn't think I had much time, so I went to the black market and bought these things."
Mingzhu could buy more things with the same money, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with that. However, in Jiang Duo's opinion, this was very undesirable.
"It's illegal there, you shouldn't go there."
After seeing Jiang Duo tie up all the things, Mingzhu sat on the front beam of the car skillfully, turned her head and looked at him, "Captain Jiang, don't be so obedient, it's my first time there too."
There was a little bit of grievance in his tone, Jiang Duo's heart softened instantly.
"Then don't go there in the future."
His voice softened unconsciously. That place is full of good and bad people. Isn't she afraid at all when he is not with her?
"Okay, then I won't go there." Mingzhu agreed, then changed the subject and took the initiative to talk about her experience today.
She didn't want to go to the black market at first. She wanted to go straight to the gate of the family compound after entering the city.
The people there have a more stable income. After taking advantage of them, they will definitely become regular customers. In this way, her sales will be stable.
But Mingzhu herself did not expect that she would meet someone from the supply and marketing cooperative as soon as she entered the city. Not only did she save the money for transportation, but she also saved an entire afternoon's time.
Jiang Duo looked down at Mingzhu. At this moment, she was talking with relish, and from time to time she turned back and blinked her smart eyes to look at him.
She was facing the light of the evening, and her body seemed to be covered with a layer of gold powder. Her originally sweet face became even more moving and beautiful. For a moment, Jiang Duo's heartbeat rhythm became very strange.
His eyes lingered on the little woman's face for a moment, and then he quickly moved away without interrupting her endless chatter.
He used to hate other people's noise, but after living with Mingzhu for a few days, he was used to her nagging!
Habit, sometimes it is really a terrible thing.
It was almost dark when the two returned home.
The first thing Mingzhu did when she entered the house was to scoop out ten pounds of beans to soak.
Ming Chunni had already made the pancakes. After Mingzhu finished soaking the beans, she took over the job of chef. While cutting meat, she said to Jiang Duo, "Captain Jiang, can you run an errand to call Captain Qiao? He has been helping to remove the adobe bricks for so many days, and his meals every day are just a few bites. Today we bought meat, so let's treat him to a proper meal."
Jiang Duo couldn't help much with cooking, so he washed his hands and went to call people.
After Mingzhu stewed the dishes neatly, no one came back for a long time.
She came to the door and stood under the old willow tree, looking ahead... Just as she was wondering if Jiang Duo was delayed by something, she heard footsteps behind her.
Mingzhu turned around and saw Jiang Duo and Qiao Bin walking towards her.
“Hey, how did you get here from the foot of the mountain?”
Qiao Bin said, “Sister-in-law, didn’t I hear from my boss that you saw pheasants and rabbits in the mountains before, so after work I went to the mountains to catch wild animals…”
Mingzhu looked down at the two of them, both of them came with empty hands, where were the wild animals?
"Didn't catch it? Did you set a trap?"
"Oh, don't mention it. I walked around for more than an hour and didn't see a single hair of a rabbit. Sister-in-law, I've been here for half a year and haven't seen any living creatures on this mountain. Where did you find it?"
Mingzhu pointed to the north halfway up the mountain. "It's in the middle of the mountain, deep in the northwest, where there is a small area of old locust trees."
"I searched that area very carefully, but didn't see it."
Mingzhu was also very interested in this matter, and immediately said, "Let's go up and take a look after dinner. I really saw it that day, a big fat gray rabbit."
Qiao Bin responded readily, "Okay!"
Jiang Duo saw the high-spirited look of the two, and his eyes became a little colder.
Qiao Bin used to be very wary of Mingzhu, but in the past few days, he has become more and more courageous and more and more unrestrained.
In front of him, he made an appointment with his wife to go up the mountain together in the evening!
Qiao Bin noticed Jiang Duo's eyes that seemed to want to kill him alive, and shrank his neck. He didn't understand what he said wrong again?
The boss's eyes were scary!
Mingzhu invited the two to go into the house to eat together. Qiao Bin didn't dare to move at all until Jiang Duo retracted his cold gaze and ordered in a deep voice: "Come in and eat!"
Qiao Bin followed him in dejectedly.
He has been here many times. He used to feel embarrassed to eat too much, but now he has the nerve to say sister-in-law, I want another big pancake if he doesn't eat enough.
And he really thinks that after getting to know each other, he found Mingzhu to be very easy to get along with!
After dinner, Ming Chunni took the initiative to wash the dishes. Mingzhu did not stop her, but excitedly called Qiao Bin to go up the mountain. When she was about to leave, she looked back at Jiang Duo and asked casually, "Jiang Duo, are you going?"
Jiang Duo did not respond with a cold face.
Qiao Bin saw this and immediately realized the key mistake, and said, "Of course the boss has to go, he is an expert in this area!"
Mingzhu heard this and grinned, "Then boss, let's go!"
Jiang Duo frowned, "What did you call me?"
She actually followed Qiao Bin to call him that?
Mingzhu had no idea what Captain Jiang was thinking. She chuckled, thinking that he did not like this title, and then she changed her words coquettishly, "Brother, let's go."
Qiao Bin instantly got goosebumps all over his body!
What did he hear?
He just had extra ears. It would be better if he was deaf. What a sin!
Jiang Duo was completely helpless against Mingzhu's "adaptability" and was easily controlled.
In the end, Jiang Duo and Qiao Bin took their tools and went out, and Mingzhu followed with a smile.
She held an old-fashioned flashlight in her hand. In order to save electricity, she did not turn on the flashlight until she could no longer see the moonlight after entering the mountain.
After climbing for a long time, she came to the place where she picked up Tai Sui last time. She glanced sideways at Jiang Duo who was very close to her, and whispered in his ear in a low voice: "I picked up Tai Sui here..."
Mingzhu was standing in a high position, shoulder to shoulder with Jiang Duo at this moment. These light words seemed to be blowing in his ears. His body was numb and he made an awkward "hmm" sound.
Qiao Bin, who was walking in front, saw that the two had not caught up, so he turned around and asked, "Sister-in-law, is it here...inside?"
Oh my God, what did he see, kiss kiss kiss... kiss!
Yes, that's right, from Qiao Bin's perspective, Mingzhu standing in the dark was kissing Jiang Duo's face -
Qiao Bin's old face instantly turned red, how could he kiss?
He should just stop being deaf and blind!
