Chapter 34 She Lives in His Heart from Morning to Night
Qiao Yanxin rummaged around in the kitchen. There was half a jar of rice, half a bag of flour, and a clay jar of lard.
It is spring now and it has just rained, which is the perfect time to eat shepherd's purse. She plans to go to the field to dig some shepherd's purse and make herself a bowl of shepherd's purse noodles.
After looking at the time, he estimated that Secretary Liu had already returned from work, so he found two bags, filled half a bag with rice and half a bag with flour, and went to Secretary Liu's house with the bags in his hands.
Secretary Liu and his wife had just returned from the fields. When they saw Qiao Yanxin coming, they quickly and warmly welcomed her into the house.
As soon as Aunt Liu saw Qiao Yan, her eyes welled up. She held her hand and asked her all sorts of questions, asking her if she was living well in the Song family and whether the Song family bullied her.
The ugly face of Song Yunting appeared in front of Qiao Yan's mind. She couldn't help but dry heave twice. She didn't want to make Aunt Liu worry, so she smiled and said, "Uncle Song treats me very well, and no one dares to mess with me."
Aunt Liu was relieved and reminded: "Yanxin, although we are from the countryside, we should not be afraid of those city people. If any city people bully you, come back to me and your uncle Liu, and we will support you."
Qiao Yan's heart warmed up, and a bright smile spread across her pretty face: "Okay!"
Secretary Liu and Qiao Yanxin's father are good friends. The couple felt sorry for Qiao Yanxin because she was a motherless child and always loved her very much.
Uncle Liu urged Aunt Liu: "Don't just talk, hurry up and cook for the child. The child came all the way from Yuncheng and must be hungry.
Add more lard, take the bacon off the beams, and cook a pot of bacon vermicelli..."
Qiao Yanxin knew that Secretary Liu's family was not well off, and that they had limited food and lard. The bacon hanging under the beams would last the family for a year.
She hurriedly said, "Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, don't bother me, I'll be back in a moment..."
Aunt Liu smiled and rolled her eyes at her: "What's the trouble? Why are you so polite to your uncle and aunt?"
Then he stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
Qiao Yan felt sweet inside. It was a good feeling to be cared for. She was no longer polite and said with a smile, "Okay, Auntie, I'll help you boil the pot later..."
Aunt Liu waved her hand: "No need! Sit down and have a rest, and talk to Uncle Liu."
Qiao Yanxin then told him the purpose of his trip back.
Secretary Liu pondered for a moment and said, "It's time to sell the bricks. A few days ago, Fatty Liu, who has been buying bricks from your brick factory, asked me if he wanted to buy all the remaining bricks from the factory. It's just right. I'll go with you to find Fatty Liu tomorrow."
Qiao Yanxin didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and she immediately smiled.
"Uncle Liu, I won't thank you enough. For all the help you and Aunt Liu have given our family over the years, even a hundred words of thanks are not enough to express my gratitude.
There are still 5,000 bricks in the brick factory. I will leave the key to the brick factory with you. If anyone in the village needs bricks to build a pigpen or a firewood shed, I would like to trouble you to help me deal with those bricks. The price doesn't matter, it's just a waste to leave them alone. ”
Secretary Liu agreed immediately: "No problem, uncle will keep an eye on it for you, you don't have to worry about anything."
After Qiao Yanxin finished chatting about business with Secretary Liu, she went into the kitchen to help Aunt Liu cook.
Aunt Liu steamed a pot of rice with the rice that Qiao Yanxin brought, cut two large radishes, soaked a handful of sweet potato vermicelli, cut half a bowl of bacon, and stewed the radish and bacon.
Aunt Liu is a very good cook. In a short while, the rich aroma of food fills the whole yard.
Knowing that Qiao Yanxin would have to stay at home for two more days, after dinner, Aunt Liu took Qiao Yanxin to her private plot to pick some vegetables and onions, and also gave her two radishes.
The next morning, Secretary Liu arranged the work in the team, and rode his bicycle with Qiao Yanxin to the county town to find Fatty Liu.
In the past two years, economic policies have been relaxed a lot, and the government has begun to encourage individuals to set up factories. Fatty Liu has already set up a furniture factory and his business is booming.
He had saved a lot of money, so he saw the right opportunity and planned to set up two more breeding farms. When he heard Qiao Yanxin say that there were still tens of thousands of bricks in the brick factory, he agreed immediately, still at the price of two cents per brick, and agreed with Qiao Yanxin that he would pay the money when he went to the brick factory to get the bricks the next day.
Secretary Liu had to go to the market to buy a bag of fertilizer, so he asked Qiao Yanxin to go to the county town for a stroll by herself.
"Uncle, I want to go to the mall to buy some things. I'll meet you at the market later."
Secretary Liu knew that there was no girl who didn't like shopping, so he didn't want to urge Qiao Yanxin too much, so he said cheerfully: "Yanxin, take your time to shop and choose. Don't worry, I'll come to find you later."
After making the agreement, the two set off separately. Qiao Yanxin entered the mall and went straight to the men's area on the second floor.
Thinking about how Ji Yanli had helped her so much, she also wanted to give him something. Expressing gratitude was secondary. She mainly wanted him to know her feelings.
But Ji Yanli is such a cold and aloof person, what kind of gift can touch his heart?
watch?
The seasonal banquet gift is already there, and it is now on her wrist.
tie?
Ji Yanli wore military uniform all day long, so the tie didn't seem to play much of a role.
Qiao Yanxin spent a long time browsing the men's area, choosing and choosing, but still couldn't make up his mind.
The saleswoman was a young girl. She took the initiative to ask Qiao Yanxin: "Girl, you are choosing so carefully. You must be choosing a gift for your partner, right?"
Qiao Yan thought of Ji Yanli's handsome and unparalleled icy face, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up. She neither denied nor admitted it.
The salesperson was sure that he had guessed correctly, and said with a smile: "Pick a belt for your boyfriend, so that every time he takes off his pants he will remember that the belt is from you, and he won't dare to mess around outside."
Qiao Yanxin: “Ah?”
Does the belt have this function?
I somehow feel that a belt is also an item full of ambiguity...
Although she knew that Ji Yanli would never mess around, she still decided to follow the salesperson's advice.
In this way, Ji Yanli would not only think of her when he took off his pants at night, but also when he put on his pants in the morning. She lived in his heart from morning to night...
Qiao Yan felt a surge of heat in his heart and the smile on his face deepened.
"Please recommend me some good quality and fashionable belts."
After choosing the belt, the salesperson enthusiastically recommended: "Girl, you may not know this, but it's popular to give vests to your partner now..."
"ah?"
"It's true. Think about it, a vest is worn next to the skin. If your partner wears the vest you chose for him, won't he think about you every day?"
Although Qiao Yanxin knew that the waiter was talking nonsense, she still carefully selected two white cotton vests for Ji Yanli.
He moved his bed and wardrobe to her house, so it’s not too much for her to give him two vests to wear next to his body, right?
"Pack the vest and belt together."
The salesperson said with a smile: "Okay, girl, go over there and line up to pay first. These two vests have been hanging for a long time and are a little dirty. I will find you two new vests."
Qiao Yanxin agreed, and the salesperson squatted under the counter and rummaged around, pulling out two white cotton items, but without looking at them carefully, he packed them together with the belt.
When Qiao Yanxin paid, she checked the belt carefully again to make sure there was no problem, but the vest had a packaging bag, so she did not open it to check. She paid and carried the item out of the mall.
