Chapter 36 What is Zhou Zhiqing busy with?



"No, he's only been back for a few days. There's a misunderstanding between us." Xiao Fangyun waved her hands repeatedly, eager to speak up to defend Chen Mu.

The last time they came to the village to arrest people, Chen Mu had already explained the whole story when he took Xiao Fangyun aside to give a statement.

In his second year at the Agricultural and Military University, Chen Mu encountered a two-year police training program at school that was only open to college students. Naturally, he did not want to miss such a great opportunity, so he wrote two letters, one to his family and one to Xiao Fangyun.

But for some reason, the letter was not delivered to Xiao Fangyun.

After graduation, he just returned home and heard that Xiao Fangyun did not get into university and returned to her hometown to get married and have children.

"marry?"

"Having a child?"

Su Nan and Liu Yu said in unison, their eyes widened in shock.

"If I knew which bastard spread this fake news, I would make him go to jail." Xiao Fangyun gritted her teeth and clutched the bed sheet in anger.

"So, you misunderstood that he abandoned you, and he misunderstood that you were already a married woman?" Su Nan clicked his tongue twice, lamenting this bloody experience.

Xiao Fangyun nodded and sighed.

Liu Yu scratched his chin and smiled, "It's good that the misunderstanding is resolved now."

"Yeah." Xiao Fangyun nodded shyly.

The three chatted for a while about the popularization of law at the entrance of Tian Village. Suddenly, Xiao Fangyun seemed to remember something. She grabbed Su Nan's hand and said with a chuckle, "Nan Nan, I actually have one most important thing to ask of you now."

Su Nan was confused and asked, "What's the matter? Tell me, I will definitely help if I can."

"Aren't we going to go out tomorrow? Chenmu asked me to go to the county town to play, and I want to apply your snowflake cream again. Don't worry, I will pay for it." Xiao Fangyun said in a muffled voice, and then looked at Su Nan cautiously.

She had inquired about it and found out that snowflake cream was very expensive and out of stock in the county town. It was only sold in department stores in the city.

Su Nan had applied it on her once last time, so she felt too embarrassed to do it for free this time.

Su Nan didn't say anything for a long time, staring at Xiao Fangyun expressionlessly. Xiao Fangyun felt uneasy, thinking that Su Nan was reluctant to part with the few remaining snowflake frost, but didn't want to refuse in person, so he gestured silently.

"It's okay if Nannan doesn't want to. Just pretend I didn't say anything. I just want to become whiter." Xiao Fangyun touched her cheek and lowered her head.

Her skin was originally very fair, but her family didn't allow her to work in the fields since she was a child. Plus, she was a good student, so she stayed in school and her room all day doing homework and reading. She couldn't get any sun, so her skin was fairer than most people.

But since she graduated from high school and returned to her hometown, she started to help with work in the fields. Exposed to the wind and sun, not only did her skin become darker, but her whole person became rougher. She cared less and less about her image and just wiped her face with a towel every day.

It was not until Su Nan moved into her house that she realized that washing the face had so many steps. Since Su Nan's legs and feet were inconvenient after his injury, she always helped to bring water to the bedside and watched Su Nan wash.

Various bottles and jars are used one after another. Before washing your face, you need to rub your face with a paste that will produce bubbles, then rinse it off with water after a few minutes, and then wipe off the water with a towel.

Then take out something like water, rub it in your hands to warm it up, and then pat it on your face. After applying the water, apply a circle of white cream around the eyes. After that, apply another layer of water-like lotion, and finally apply the snowflake cream that can make people whiter last time.

One snowflake cream is so expensive, I don’t know how much all the ingredients cost in total.

Although her family dotes on her and almost always grants her every request, Xiao Fangyun is reluctant to spend money to buy a box of snowflake cream.

She wanted to apply it again this time because after Xi Wei and Shen Mu were reconciled, she found that this man was becoming more and more dazzling. After so many years of police training, he was not tanned at all. He was still glowing white, much whiter than her.

Standing next to him, she looked like a country girl, dark-skinned and not a good match at all.

What's more, she didn't know if she would meet any acquaintances when she went to the county town this time. If they saw her standing next to Chen Mu, who knew what they would say behind her back.

She just wanted the two of them to look more suitable and compatible.

But if Su Nan doesn't want to, then forget it.

"Oh, can you please stop mentioning money? How can I live in your house with peace of mind and be your good friend happily?" Su Nan held his forehead and slapped Xiao Fangyun's arm a few times in annoyance.

"I still have a lot, don't worry." Su Nan smiled, looking indifferent.

There are so many products that fill up an entire space that she could never finish them all even if she worked till the end of time.

If she couldn't explain it, she would have wanted to give a large bunch to each of her friends.

Xiao Fangyun was relieved when she heard that Su Nan agreed to her buying snowflake cream, but she couldn't help but frown and said, "How can that be? I can't take advantage of you every time for such an expensive thing."

"Stop talking. We are sisters. If you keep saying these things, it means you don't consider me as your good friend. Why are you so polite?" Su Nan shut Xiao Fangyun's mouth with two words.

Thinking of something, he gave Xiao Fangyun another evil smile, and then said mysteriously: "If you trust me, I will perform a head-changing trick for you tomorrow."

"Head-replacement technique?" Xiao Fangyun and Liu Yu looked at each other and asked in confusion.

"Yes, you will know what it is tomorrow." Su Nan snapped his fingers and laughed.

Then he took out his small kettle, poured a cup for each of them, and urged them, "Have a drink and quench your thirst."

Seeing her take out the kettle, the other two's eyes lit up, and they picked up the cups and drank from them in big gulps.

After a while, I felt a surge of energy rising from the inside out of my body, and I felt refreshed.

This period is the busy farming season. Not only was I extremely exhausted, but I was also sore all over. But as long as I drank the water given by Su Nan, those feelings would disappear.

It's magical. I thought Su Nan had put some medicinal herbs in it, but there was no other smell in the water. It was just like ordinary water.

Maybe it's just psychological.

"Then I'll come again tomorrow. I'm looking forward to Nan Nan's 'head-changing technique'. Hahaha, it's getting late. I'll go back to the educated youth team first. Tomorrow it will be my turn to help Gao Zhongbin in the kitchen." Liu Yu stood up and said goodbye.

"I haven't eaten his cooking for so many days. I miss it so much." Su Nan couldn't help but smile when she thought of Gao Zhongbin's good cooking skills.

Hearing this, Liu Yu laughed and said, "Without good ingredients, even the best cooking skills won't be of much use. What can you do with sweet potatoes and wild vegetables?"

"Yes. By the way, I haven't seen Zhou Zhiqing for two days. What is he busy with?" Su Nan changed the subject and asked casually.

Liu Yu thought for a moment and replied, "Zhou Zhiqing? It seems that he followed Brother Lu and the people from the commune to the city to do some work. He won't be back for a few days."

Liu Yu didn't think much about why Su Nan suddenly brought up the matter of Zhou Rang, because everyone in the village knew that Zhou Rang helped Su Nan deliver vegetables and medicine to the Xiao family every few days.
