Xiaolan's home was the closest to where Ruan Cuizhi lived. She took the key left by Ruan Cuizhi and came to feed the chickens every evening. There were no wild vegetables to dig in winter, so she used the cabbage that had been stored for the whole winter.
Today, she came to open the door when the sun was about to set, and after entering the yard, she went into the house to get the cabbage, and peeled off the outer layer of leaves that were frozen, dehydrated and dried. After peeling enough leaves, she put them in a bowl and cut them into small pieces.
After chopping, she mixed them with wheat bran and poured them into the feeding bowl in the chicken coop for the chickens to eat.
When the chickens were crowded together to eat, she went into the chicken coop to pick out the eggs inside and put them in the small bamboo basket she brought with her. Because hens refused to lay eggs in winter, she could only pick up two or three eggs every day.
After picking up the eggs and carrying the small basket, she was about to leave when she saw Ruan Cuizhi and her friends coming back.
So she didn't lock the gate again, but stood there and waited for a while.
When Ruan Cuizhi and her friends arrived in front of the gate, she smiled and greeted everyone, and then she saw that Yue Haofeng was riding a tricycle with two elderly people, who looked quite old and had white hair.
Ruan Cuizhi smiled and replied, "Xiaolan, thank you."
It was not a big deal. Xiaolan was embarrassed and handed the bamboo basket to Ruan Cuizhi, saying, "You can keep today's eggs. They are just right for cooking."
Ruan Cuizhi naturally refused, "How can I let you help for nothing? Just take it back."
She exchanged a few words with Xiaolan and introduced Ruan Zhigao and Liu Xinghua to Xiaolan. Xiaolan greeted Ruan Zhigao and Liu Xinghua, called "Hello, Grandpa and Grandma", and then went home with the basket.
Ruan Zhigao and Liu Xinghua were still dizzy. They got off the tricycle and walked into the yard, looking around. Finally, they moved out a long bench and sat on it, both with blank expressions.
Ruan Changsheng looked at them and smiled, "Are you still dizzy?"
After taking the train and then the bus, they were indeed dizzy for a while, but the main reason was that they were not used to the new environment. They were in a completely unfamiliar place, and even though they were surrounded by familiar people, they still felt uncomfortable.
Ruan Zhigao looked at Ruan Changsheng, cleared his throat and said, "It's OK here. I'm not used to the courtyard in the city. The threshold is so high. It's not a place for people like us to live. Living here is OK."
The others were busy with their own things. Some were cleaning and some were cooking.
Ruan Cuizhi came over and said with a smile, "Okay, let you live here first. There is such a big vegetable garden outside. You can do whatever you want. You can plant whatever you like. There are also these chickens. You can feed them. If you still feel that it's not enough, I will buy you a pig to raise. How about it?"
Liu Xinghua nodded, "That's fine."
You have to find something to do to kill time. You can't just lean against the wall and stare blankly every day. Country people also do these things, either raising livestock or doing needlework. After a lifetime of busyness, it is impossible to be idle all of a sudden.
This night, Ruan Changsheng, Qian Chuan and Ruan Xi did not return to the city, but stayed directly in the countryside, and stayed with Ruan Zhigao and Liu Xinghua for a while, so that they could relax and adapt more quickly in such an atmosphere.
They are more familiar with life in the countryside, so let them stay in the countryside with Ruan Cuizhi to get used to the climate and customs here, and make a little transition. After two years, they will move to the city with Ruan Cuizhi and others. After
staying for one night, the three of them took Dabao back to the city the next day, dried the quilts, cleaned up, and tidied up simply.
Ruan Changsheng and Qian Chuan also went to the store to check it out, clean it up and prepare for business.
When they came back in the evening, they bought some food, and after dinner, they took Dabao out to play.
Ruan Xi did not go out with them, but sorted out his mood, sat down at the workbench and looked at the work that he had stopped before the New Year and had not finished.
While he was looking at it, Ruan Jie came by.
Ruan Xi saw her enter the house, put down the design draft in her hand, stood up and talked to her: "Why did
n't Chen Weidong come?" Ruan Jie said: "He is not a sticky person who follows you everywhere. He is on duty at the unit tonight, so I came to see if you are back. You are back, where are grandpa and grandma? Did they come with you this time?"
Ruan Xi nodded and said: "They are here, living in the countryside."
Ruan Jie said: "Then Chen Weidong and I will go to see them on Sunday."
After that, she came to Ruan Xi, smiled and whispered: "I am pregnant, and it is a good time to hold a wedding banquet. "
Ruan Xi was very happy to hear that, and looked at her belly, "That's really a double happiness!"
Ruan Jie said, "It's only two months, don't tell me yet."
Ruan Xi winked at her, "I understand!" Ruan
Jie came over to talk to Ruan Xi and then went back. Ruan Xi sent her to the gate of the courtyard and told her, "You are in a special period now, be careful on the road, and be careful in everything you do."
Ruan Jie smiled and pushed the cart away, "Don't worry, I will be careful."
Ruan Xi watched her walk away, turned around and went back to the house to continue thinking about the design draft.
Although she had been tossing around in Fengming Mountain for many days, she quickly recovered her concentration. When she was serious about doing things, she would forget the time. When Ruan Changsheng Qianchuan brought Dabao back to wash up and go back to sleep, she was still busy at the workbench.
After being so busy that she raised her wrist to look, it was already half past ten.
Ruan Changsheng, Qian Chuan and Ruan Dabao had already fallen asleep by then. She stood up and stretched her back to relax her muscles, and went to the bathroom to wash up. After washing up, she came back to the workbench and picked up a design draft to take a look. She still felt that it was not good enough.
Before she could think of how to modify it, she suddenly heard a clearing of the throat.
Ruan Xi raised her head and looked at the door of the main room, only to see that Ling Yao had returned.
After not seeing each other for more than ten days, Ruan Xi smiled subconsciously and said, "Dear brother is back? Long time no see."
Ling Yao took a deep breath and walked to her. After she turned around, he placed his palms on the edge of the table, trapped her in his arms, looked at her and said, "Take a good look at my face. How on earth do I look like a brother?"
Ruan Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, "If I say it's a brother, then it's a brother."
Ling Yao looked at her for a while and whispered, "I haven't seen you for so long, do you miss your brother?"
"..." He said it without blushing or beating his heart!
He really kept breaking the impression he left on her when he was a child, and changing her understanding of him in various ways.
So what she said was absolutely right - being in love and being friends are two completely different things. No matter how many years they had been friends before, it didn't count at all, because some sides can only be seen when you are in love.
She cleared her throat and did not answer him, but changed the subject and asked, "Didn't you go home for the New Year?"
Ling Yao still put his hands on the table and looked at her, "Yes, my mother heard that you and I had reunited, and she kept asking how you were doing and how she missed seeing you. She asked me when I could take you back to see them."
Hearing what he said, Ruan Xi suddenly remembered that he had said before that if there was a chance in the future, he would definitely take him to visit his hometown and his home. Unexpectedly, there was really a chance, and in this way.
When he said those words, he must have felt that there was no chance. After his father was rehabilitated and returned to the city, he might have seen some opportunities again, but because the contact was cut off, he naturally felt that there would be no chance anymore.
But now, the opportunity is in front of him again, and it is almost impossible to escape.
So he asked Ruan Xi: "When are you going?"
Ruan Xi looked at him, "Do you have time?"
Ling Yao nodded, "I can take a leave when I'm not busy at work."
Ruan Xi thought about it, "Do we have to get married after the show?"
Ling Yao: "It's up to you, if you want to get married, then get married, if you don't want to get married, we can continue dating."
Ruan Xi couldn't help laughing, "Just dating without getting married, aren't you afraid that I will run away?"
Ling Yao's hand slid over and held her waist, "Can I still run away? I will rely on you for the rest of my life. I gave you seven years and you didn't find someone you like more. You will never have another chance in the future."
Ruan Xi didn't say anything else. She looked at him for a while, then suddenly leaned over and kissed him on the lips.
It wasn't a quick and light kiss, but there was no second kiss either.
After the kiss, she looked into Ling Yao's eyes again. In less than half a second, he pressed over and kissed her lips.
The lips rolled, and the numbness on the tip of the tongue spread to every part of her body like an electric shock, and all the nerves in her body were delighted.
Ruan Xi's waist hit the edge of the workbench, and Ling Yao picked her up and let her sit on the table. After a brief separation, he kissed her again, holding her waist with one hand to hold her in his arms, and holding her ear with the other hand, the kiss became deeper and deeper...
Spring is warm, everything is revived, and there is a warm atmosphere everywhere.
Today, everyone in the family gathered in the hotel to attend the wedding banquet of Ruan Jie and Chen Weidong. They had already held a wedding banquet at Chen's house during the Chinese New Year, and invited Ruan Changfu and Feng Xiuying's family, so they didn't come this time.
In addition to family members, friends and colleagues of Chen Weidong and Ruan Jie also came to the hotel to attend the wedding banquet. Everyone drank, ate, and laughed together. Some people even went on stage to perform and passionately sang a song called "Love Across Mountains and Rivers".
The atmosphere was lively, and many people sang along with their heads gently -
Don't say that the green mountains are too many obstacles
The wind is strong and the wind is strong
White clouds passing over the mountains can also convey feelings Do
n't say that the water is too changeable
The water is clear and the water is quiet
Tenderness is like water and love is eternal
Not afraid that the strong wind will blow away the love Love
is always there across mountains and rivers
Gathering and separation are also destined by heaven
Don't blame the heaven or the fate
Just hope that the mountains and rivers can bear witness
...
In the most lively atmosphere, Ruan Xi was naturally happy too. While listening to the song, she turned her head and smiled at Ling Yao. Ling Yao reached out her hand under the table, and she placed her fingers on his palm and intertwined their fingers.
When the song was about to end, Chen Weidong suddenly stood up and left the hall.
He arrived at the hotel lobby and saw Xu Zhuo standing by the glass curtain wall. He was wearing a very formal military uniform, with a suit collar, a crisp cut, and bright epaulettes. The clothes made him look very tall and straight.
Chen Weidong went to him and asked him, "Why don't you go in?"
Xu Zhuo turned around, looked at him and said, "I'm too busy. I hurried over to give you some money to prove that I still care about you. There's not enough time. I have to go back soon, so I won't go in for dinner."
Chen Weidong looked at him for a moment, "Did you see?"
Xu Zhuo took a deep breath and didn't answer. After a moment, he said, "I should go. You should go back soon. It's your big day."
Chen Weidong didn't say anything more and held him back to talk. He raised his fist and said, "See you next time."
Xu Zhuo raised his fist and lightly bumped it with him, "See you next time."
Back at the banquet hall, several people formed a team and went on stage to dance to the music.
After Chen Weidong sat down, Ruan Jie asked in a low voice: "Is Xu Zhuo here?"
He did not go home when they were older, and did not attend the banquet they had at home. He said he would come here.
In the end, it seemed that he came, but it also seemed that he did not come completely.
Chen Weidong glanced at Ruan Xi and Ling Yao, then retracted his gaze and whispered: "Let's go."
Ruan Jie took a deep breath and said nothing more, thinking that it was better not to see him.
Today's meal was really lively, and I also learned a lot - young people nowadays, especially those in the city, really know how to have fun, singing and dancing, which is very interesting.
Ruan Cuizhi and Qian Chuan were all very happy. They were still humming songs on the way home after the banquet. Then Qian Chuan smiled and said to Ruan Xi and Ling Yao: "Xiao Jie's matter is over. Now it's your turn."
Ling Yao rode his bike back and asked Ruan Xi: "When are you going to my house?"
Ruan Xi pulled his coat and said: "It's up to me. No one cares about me. I can always find time. Anyway, I have known your parents for a long time, and they know me too. I am not afraid of seeing them."
Ling Yao smiled and said: "Then I will arrange it soon."
Liu Xinghua breathed a sigh of relief, "We old couple will be completely relieved after Xiaoxi gets married."
Raising their children to have a family and living happily, their lives will be completely perfect.
