Ruan Changsheng ran to Qian Chuan and asked her, "Why are you here?"
Because of the distance, Qian Chuan certainly didn't hear what he said in front of Xie Tao. She stretched her head to look at Xie Tao who was still standing there, and saw that her face was miserable. She looked at Ruan Changsheng and asked, "I don't think I came at the right time?"
Ruan Changsheng said directly, "No, you came at the right time, just an ordinary friend."
Then he looked Qian Chuan up and down at a close distance, and said with a hissing breath, "I didn't expect it."
Qian Chuan rolled her eyes at him, and smiled with some complacency, saying, "There are many things you didn't expect."
He had always said that she didn't look like a woman before, and today he must let him see if she is a woman.
Ruan Changsheng smiled and apologized, "It's true that I am short-sighted."
As the two were talking, Xie Tao came from behind.
Qian Chuan was very enthusiastic and open to everyone she met. She greeted Xie Tao openly, "Hello."
Xie Tao smiled unnaturally, looked at Qian Chuan and replied, "Hello."
She wanted to ask Qian Chuan in person if she was Ruan Changsheng's girlfriend, but her remaining self-esteem prevented her from speaking. In fact, even if she didn't ask, she already knew Ruan Changsheng's attitude.
But for some reason, she still felt unwilling.
So she looked at Qian Chuan and asked, "Which brigade are you from?"
Qian Chuan smiled and said, "My family is not from the village on the mountain, but in the town."
After hearing this, Xie Tao's face darkened a few degrees.
Ruan Changsheng didn't want to deal with her anymore, so he turned around and said to her, "I have something to do here, so you should go back early and be careful on the road. I've made it very clear, it's best not to see each other in the future."
Now there were not only the two of them, but also other people watching. Xie Tao was embarrassed by what Ruan Changsheng said, and her expression was unbearable. She clenched the cloth bag in her hand with her fingers, leaving herself the last bit of face, turned around and walked away quickly.
Ruan Changsheng didn't say much to her. He just looked at Qian Chuan and asked, "Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Qian Chuan withdrew her gaze from Xie Tao, patted her schoolbag and said, "I brought you something good."
Ruan Changsheng looked at her and smiled, "Then let's find a place to have a look."
The child who was leading the way had been silent, but when he heard that there were good things to see, his eyes widened like bells. He was curious and itchy. He looked at Qian Chuan and said, "What good things? Can I take a look?"
What is the little brat looking at! Ruan Changsheng put his hand on his shoulder, asked him to turn around and face away from him, then raised his foot and kicked him on the butt, kicked him out and said, "Get out."
The child turned around and shouted, "Xiao Wuzi, I'll go home and tell my mom!"
Ruan Changsheng made a face at him and waved his hand, "You can tell anyone you want, bye."
The child was so angry that he picked up a stone and threw it at Ruan Changsheng. When Ruan Changsheng groaned when he hit him, he laughed with satisfaction, then stuck out his tongue and made a face at Ruan Changsheng, turned around and ran away.
Ruan Changsheng certainly didn't chase the child. He smiled and retracted his gaze, looking at Qian Chuan and said, "Let's go."
Qian Chuan squinted at him and said, "You are three years old?"
Ruan Changsheng asked her, "Am I not thirty?"
Qian Chuan pursed her lips and nodded, then said, "Thirty years old appearance, three years old IQ."
Ruan Changsheng: "..."
Does this girl have any good words in her mouth?
Qian Chuan looked at the expression on his face and laughed happily. After a while, she stopped talking to him and pulled him to a place where people could not see. The two found a small cave nearby, hid from people and went in, squatted down to talk about things.
Qian Chuan and Ruan Changsheng squatted face to face, and Qian Chuan asked him first: "Have you sold all the things I gave you?"
Ruan Changsheng smiled and said: "It's very simple, I sold them all on the way back."
Qian Chuan's eyes lit up and he praised him: "You are amazing."
Ruan Changsheng couldn't stop laughing, "It's a piece of cake."
Qian Chuan then took down the schoolbag, opened the flap to show Ruan Changsheng, and asked him: "I'll give it all to you, do you want it?"
Ruan Changsheng looked at Qian Chuan, and he could see her thoughts.
After meeting him, she found a new way to make money. She wanted to develop him into her subordinate, sell him all the things she got, let him run errands and take risks, and she could make a little money without doing anything.
This girl is so smart, she is really the reincarnation of Qian Chuan!
But, how could he refuse something that was delivered to his door?
Ruan Changsheng asked her, "How much?"
Qian Chuan held up five fingers, "Five dollars."
Ruan Changsheng said, "I want it, but I don't have that much money."
Nowadays, anyone who can spend five dollars casually is a rich man.
Qian Chuan suggested, "Go home and ask your mother for it."
Ruan Changsheng: "..."
She is really good at thinking of ways.
Ruan Changsheng thought for a while and said, "How about this, I'll give you two yuan first, and owe you the rest. When I sell all the things and get the money back, I'll return the three yuan to you, how about that?"
Qian Chuan looked at him and blinked, "What if you take the things and run away without returning them to me?"
Ruan Changsheng said, "The monk can run away but the temple cannot. Don't you know where my home is now? If I take the things and run away without returning the money to you, you can go ask my mother directly."
Qian Chuan: "..."
What a son who cheats his mother...
Ruan Changsheng smiled, "Just a joke, since you have chosen to cooperate with me , then we should trust each other, what do you think? Although we have known each other for a short time, I think you are a good person. "
Qian Chuan looked into Ruan Changsheng's eyes and suddenly changed the subject and asked: "Who was that girl just now?"
Ruan Changsheng was stunned for a moment by the topic jump, and then replied: "My previous blind date object didn't like me because I was not good enough, but now she suddenly came back to me and said she regretted it."
No wonder her eyes were red, Qian Chuan asked again: "Did you reject the person?"
Ruan Changsheng nodded, suddenly came to her and whispered: "I told her that you are my object."
Qian Chuan glared at him and slapped him in the face, "Are you looking for death?" Ruan
Changsheng groaned and covered his shoulder, "Do you have to hit him so hard?"
Qian Chuan wanted to hit him with her schoolbag again, but was afraid of damaging the things inside, so she glared at him and said, "No wonder she looked at me strangely just now, not friendly at all, and asked where I was from."
Ruan Changsheng smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, anyway, I won't see her again in the future."
Qian Chuan thought about it and felt that it was true. She didn't know the girl just now, and they didn't even know each other's names. The girl's home was not in the town, and she was thousands of miles away, so she wouldn't be able to see her in the future.
In this case, she looked at Ruan Changsheng and said, "You used me as a shield without my permission, add one more dollar."
Ruan Changsheng's eyes widened: "You are robbing!"
How can he make money like this? If the things are too expensive, people will not buy them, and she will make all the money!
Qian Chuan covered her schoolbag and stood up to leave, "Don't do it."
Ruan Changsheng then stood up and grabbed her, saying repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes."
When she turned around with a satisfied smile, he followed with another sentence: "Anyway, we are a family in the future."
Qian Chuan: "???"
Who is a family with you!
Ruan Changsheng didn't care what her expression was. He smiled and reached out to take the schoolbag from her hand and said to her, "Wait for me here for a while. I'm going home to get the money and will be back soon."
After that, he took the schoolbag and left.
When he got home, he put the miscellaneous items in Qianchuan's schoolbag into his own schoolbag, took out his own two yuan of private money, packed some dry food and clothes, and went to say hello to Liu Xinghua: "Mom, I'm going out for a few days. I won't be back these days."
Liu Xinghua looked up at him, "Where are you going to fool around this time?"
Ruan Changsheng smiled, "Wait for good news from me. I will bring you a daughter-in-law in a while."
Liu Xinghua perked up when she heard this, "Are you not kidding me?"
Ruan Changsheng: "Of course not, I already have a target."
Liu Xinghua asked with concern: "Where is the girl from? Whose family is she from?"
Ruan Changsheng said: "Let's talk about it
after it's done." Ruan Changsheng used to go out often and would not come home for ten days or half a month. Liu Xinghua was not surprised by this, and did not care about him, only saying: "It's the same old saying, you can have fun and make noises, but you can't do anything that is against the will of heaven and earth."
Ruan Changsheng has always been well-behaved and sensible, "I know, Mom." After
saying hello to Liu Xinghua, Ruan Changsheng returned to the small cave.
Qian Chuan saw him coming back, stood up, took the schoolbag in his hand, slung it over his body and muttered: "You made me wait here for a long time, I thought you just took the goods and ran away, and would not come back."
Ruan Changsheng took out two yuan from his pocket, took her hand and patted her palm, "I don't have many other advantages, but I am the most loyal and trustworthy, and what I said always counts."
Qian Chuan saw that the money was happy, so he put it away and put it in his pocket.
After packing, she looked at Ruan Changsheng and said, "After you sell the goods, come to the town to find me. My home is near Tianfeng Primary School. Remember that, right? Bring money with you. Remember that you still owe me four yuan. Not a penny less."
She was about to leave when Ruan Changsheng suddenly reached out and pulled her.
She turned around and said, "What else?"
Ruan Changsheng said, "Aren't you going down the mountain? I just happened to be going out to sell things, so I'll walk a little along the way."
Qian Chuan looked at him and didn't refuse to go with him, "Let's go."
The two of them left Fengyan Village and walked for a while. Ruan Changsheng suddenly remembered something and said to Qian Chuan, "If you're not in a hurry to go home, I'll take you to a place first and get you some food. Do you want to go?"
Is there food? Qian Chuan couldn't help swallowing her saliva, "Where?"
She had eaten dry grain steamed buns on the way up the mountain, and had to borrow water from people along the way. She hadn't eaten properly for two days. If she could have a hot meal at this time, it would be a great thing.
Ruan Changsheng didn't say anything, just said: "Just follow me."
Qian Chuan now almost treated him as her own, and didn't ask any more questions, and followed him forward.
She didn't know where Ruan Changsheng was going to take her, and when she got there, she found that it was a tailor shop. The tailor shop was locked and not open for business. She peeked inside through the crack in the door and saw a grape rack in the yard with a few bunches of small grapes hanging on it.
When Qian Chuan was lying at the door and looking inside, Ruan Changsheng went to a small stone on the wall and took out a key. He came over and waited for Qian Chuan to move aside. He then unlocked the door with the key and took Qian Chuan into the tailor shop.
Qian Chuan still remembered what Ruan Changsheng had said to her. After entering the yard, she just asked, "Is this your niece's tailor shop?"
Ruan Changsheng closed the door with his backhand and said, "Yes, she is not at home today because she has work to do."
Qian Chuan looked around and said, "Your niece is really amazing."
Ruan Changsheng was used to hearing people praise his niece, and he continued, "Of course my niece is amazing."
Qian Chuan did not dismantle his table this time. She looked at him and said, "You are going to cook for me here?"
"Yeah." Ruan Changsheng nodded very straightforwardly, "What do you want to eat? I'll cook you a bowl of noodles."
Qian Chuan looked at him: "Can you
cook it?" Ruan Changsheng: "Anyway, it's edible. Do you want to try it?"
Qian Chuan didn't bother to be polite with him: "Let's try it."
Ruan Changsheng was kneading dough, rolling out dough and cutting noodles at the table. Qian Chuan sat beside him, holding her face and looking at him all the time, with a sparkling smile in her eyes - this man is the type that gets more and more pleasing to the eye.
Ruan Changsheng asked her while cutting noodles: "How is my cooking skill?"
Qian Chuan deliberately commented conservatively: "It's just okay."
Ruan Changsheng glanced at her, smiled and said nothing.
It's not like he didn't see the look she gave him just now, it was obviously very admiring!
Ruan Changsheng didn't say anything, Qian Chuan asked again: "I think you are not bad, why didn't that girl like you?"
Ruan Changsheng knew that the girl she was talking about was Xie Tao, so he didn't avoid the topic and continued: "My third sister didn't live well after marriage, and her brother-in-law has been beating her for many years. It was about this time last year that my third sister came to her senses and wanted to divorce her brother-in-law, so she moved back to her parents' home. Their family couldn't accept my third sister, so they asked me to send her back to her husband's home."
Qian Chuan thought for a moment and said, "What kind of request is this? Your third sister lives in her own parents' home, what does it have to do with her? Seriously speaking, it's none of your business. You can rely on your parents for food and shelter, can't your third sister?"
Ruan Changsheng continued to cut noodles, "So I didn't agree, and the matter didn't work out."
Qian Chuan was curious, "Then why did she come to you again today?"
Ruan Changsheng was not very smooth with the knife, and he cut the noodles slowly, "Because my third sister learned the craft from my niece, and went to their team to make clothes yesterday. She must have seen my third sister, so she regretted it and ran to me."
Qian Chuan frowned to indicate that he couldn't care less . "She actually had the nerve to come to you?"
Ruan Changsheng smiled, "Since the last blind date with her failed, I felt that blind dates were boring, so I didn't let my mother find a matchmaker anymore. She thought I was thinking about her and that I was single because of her."
Qian Chuan was stunned: "???"
After a moment, "She is really confident."
Ruan Changsheng laughed, "She looks good, so she can be confident."
Qian Chuan didn't agree, "What's the use of being good-looking."
Ruan Changsheng believed that she really thought that being good-looking was useless, otherwise, with her appearance, she wouldn't go out and ruin herself like that. She only has money in her eyes, nothing else.
Pretty?
Is it more useful than money?
Of course not!
So he said, "Money is still useful."
Qian Chuan agreed and nodded heavily, "We are like-minded!"
Ruan Changsheng couldn't help laughing out loud. For the first time, he found that money-lovers could be so cute.
After the noodles were cut, Ruan Changsheng put them on the board to wake up for a while, and went out to the vegetable garden to pick a handful of small green vegetables. After entering the kitchen, he washed the vegetables, sprinkled them with chili oil, and then brought the noodles to Qian Chuan.
Qian Chuan couldn't help swallowing her saliva when she smelled the fragrant chili oil. When the hot noodles were placed in front of her, she picked up the noodles with chopsticks without saying a word and gulped down a big mouthful in one breath.
Ruan Changsheng sat down opposite her, "No one is competing with you, eat slowly."
Qian Chuan said while eating, "I haven't eaten properly for two days."
Ruan Changsheng ignored her and let her do whatever she wanted. He
had just finished talking about his own affairs, and now he was looking at Qian Chuan eating noodles and asked her about her affairs, "You are not young anymore, your family should have found a partner for you, have you found anyone you like?"
Qian Chuan said while eating noodles, "I'm not interested, I've met a few, but they were scared away by me when I first met them."
Ruan Changsheng: "..." She
must have gone on a blind date with a face full of soot, looking like a beggar.
He suddenly cleared his throat, looked at Qian Chuan and asked, "What do you think of me?"
Qian Chuan slowed down her eating of noodles, raised her eyes and looked at Ruan Changsheng. After looking at him for a moment, she quickly lowered her eyes again. Then she took two mouthfuls of noodles, cleared her throat and said, "It's just OK."
Ruan Changsheng didn't beat around the bush: "Do you want to try it with me?"
Qian Chuan's body froze when she heard it, and then she hurriedly ate the noodles in the bowl with big mouthfuls. After finishing the noodles, she was satisfied and had no more regrets. She slapped the chopsticks on the table, got up and ran: "You want me to be your wife after eating a bowl of noodles? Dream on!"
Before Ruan Changsheng could react, he saw her disappear outside the courtyard gate in a flash of smoke.
"..."
In Akabane Village, the sun was setting in the west.
Ruan Xi and Ruan Cuizhi had already finished two sets of uniforms, but there were other people in the village who needed to change their clothes, so they stayed in the village and didn't leave. She estimated that she would be able to finish the work soon, and if there was enough time, she would pack up and go back to the tailor shop.
Because of Xie Tao's matter, Ermei was unable to alter the clothes yesterday, so she took the clothes to find Ruan Xi and Ruan Cuizhi again today.
After the clothes were altered and paid, she happily went home with the clothes.
Then, when she was halfway with the clothes, she ran into Xie Tao who was coming back from outside.
She was even happier to see Xie Tao, and waved her hand and called Xie Tao's name to say hello to her, but Xie Tao seemed to have heard nothing at all, and did not even look at her, lowered her head and went straight home.
Ermei was puzzled, and really thought that she did not hear it, so she took the clothes to Xie Tao's house.
Then, as soon as she entered the house, she heard Xie Tao crying from the room.
She went into Xie Tao's room and saw Xie Tao lying on the bed with her face buried in the pillow, crying so hard that her whole body was shaking.
Ermei didn't know what was wrong with Xie Tao, so she sat down and put her hand on her shoulder and asked her, "What's wrong?"
Xie Tao just cried and ignored her. She cried until the evening when it was getting dark.
Xie's mother and her aunt came back from work, and as soon as they entered the house, they heard Xie Tao crying. So the two of them pushed open the curtain on the room and walked into the room. When they saw Ermei, they asked first, "What's wrong with her?"
Ermei shook her head, "She's been crying for a while."
Xie's mother and Xie Tao's aunt looked at each other and probably guessed what was going on. But they had to let Xie Tao talk it out, so they asked Ermei to make way for her, sat next to Xie Tao, patted her and asked, "What happened?"
Xie Tao was crying so hard that she could hardly breathe. After loosening her head on the pillow to take a breath, she choked and said, "It's too late, everything is too late... I went too late... He already has a girlfriend, and she's a girl from town."
Hearing this, Xie's mother took a deep breath and comforted Xie Tao, "Forget it, the world is not a place where you can't go. There is only one man, Ruan Changsheng. If we miss this one, we can just find the next one."
Xie Tao cried until her eyes were red and swollen, "Where can we find a better one than him? There is no way!"
She hit her legs and said anxiously and regretfully, "I shouldn't have mentioned his third sister at that time. If I hadn't mentioned this, he and I would have been married now. Now there is no chance, absolutely no chance!"
Seeing her like this, Xie's mother was angry, annoyed, distressed, regretful and aggrieved.
At that time, it was the idea of all the Xie family members to make that request to the Ruan family, especially she played the most important role in it.
She sat there and couldn't say anything tough. She was so suffocated in her heart that she just took deep breaths.
Aunt Xie Tao didn't dare to say anything beside her, lest she would be blamed if she opened her mouth.
She has learned her lesson this time - she will never interfere in Xie Tao's affairs again, no matter how hard she tries!
Ermei understood the cause and effect of the incident, shook her head and sighed, and went home with her clothes.
