Chapter 39 He is really good at it!
When she returned home, Shi Xiaoai found that her house had changed a lot.
The threshold was sloping with cement to make it easier for tricycles to enter and exit. The house was also tidied up.
The doors of the two rooms that had been locked before were now open, and the clutter inside had been cleared out.
Two wooden shelves were placed in the room near the door. Each had five layers and reached the top. When it was full, it could just reach near the roof.
The useful things that were cleared out are now piled on the shelves, and the useless garbage has been thrown away.
Besides these two shelves, there were other things Xiao Ai needed for her stall: tables, benches, and her particularly valuable teacups and glasses.
After looking at the storage room, Shi Xiaoai went straight to the main house.
Then I found that except for that room, all other rooms in the house had been repainted. Not only were they painted white, but they also used paint to create green dadoes on the walls close to the ground.
After this renovation, the house immediately became much brighter and no longer had the shabby look it had when Xiao Ai first took over.
"Mom, mom, look at this room. This is Xiaoxi and my room!"
Mingrui ran in from outside and pulled Shi Xiaoai into the room next to the storage room.
At that time, Xiao Ai's arms were stretched so hard by his excitement that they hurt a little.
She didn't care about her arm, her attention was focused on the sentence "My and Xiaoxi's room", and she couldn't help but look for Cheng Yang.
Don't ask, he must have said this to Mingrui.
Cheng Yang was packing the bedding on the tricycle with his back to her, so her expression was completely unclear. After staring at him for a moment, Shi Xiaoai withdrew her gaze and looked into the house.
This room is different from the bedroom inside. The entire inner wall of this room is painted green, but it is a lighter color than the wall skirt, similar to apple green.
There is a bunk bed against this wall. The bed is made of wood and the stairs are an iron frame.
It can be seen that this wall was painted so that people can sleep next to it without dirtying the mattress.
But no matter how you look at it, these bunk beds look like they were pulled back from some school dormitory.
At the head of the bed, near the window, there were two single desks and two high stools placed side by side. In the middle of the desk was a military green metal-shaded table lamp that could be shared by two people.
It was obvious that both the desk and the bed were not new and showed signs of use.
But they were all polished and painted again, and they looked shiny and almost as good as new.
Looking at the newly decorated house, not only Ming Rui was excited, but Shi Xiaoai was also a little surprised.
"How is it? Does it look okay?"
I don’t know when Cheng Yang had walked behind them. He leaned over and whispered in Shi Xiaoai’s ear.
Shi Xiaoai's ears were sensitive to begin with, and they turned red instantly when she felt the hot air exhaled during these words.
She subconsciously dodged to the side, then turned to glare at the man.
Unexpectedly, the man who had just had bad intentions walked past her sideways with the bedding in his arms as if nothing had happened, went into the room and started making the bed.
"Which school did you rob?" Shi Xiaoai looked at him and asked unhappily.
"Not really," Cheng Yang chuckled, then said slowly, "I just went to a state-owned consignment store."
Shi Xiaoai became even more curious.
She glared at the man again in anger, knowing clearly that Cheng Yang was deliberately trying to hook her because he saw that she was interested in the commission store!
But even though I knew, I couldn't help but ask, "How come the commission shop has everything? Even beds? What else is there besides these?"
Cheng Yang couldn't help laughing.
He felt that after not seeing her for a few years, his young wife had become so much more interesting.
Sometimes he looks very mature with a stern face, but every word he says hurts the heart.
Even he was sometimes scared, afraid that she would suddenly say something heartbreaking and it would take him a long time to recover.
But sometimes she is very naive, her emotions are clearly shown on her face, and she is completely defenseless against her own people.
In addition, he is very curious. When he is interested in something, his big eyes will roll around like a little deer.
Of course, she will only show these if she really treats you as her own.
Cheng Yang felt very happy when he thought that his position in his wife's heart had gradually risen from a stranger to a family member.
He put down his work, turned around and looked at Shi Xiaoai, his voice gentle and full of temptation: "You want to know, I'll take you there on my bike? The four of us will go together."
He deliberately emphasized the words "our family" and "our family of four".
Shi Xiaoai didn't respond to his words, as if she didn't understand, and blurted out: "No need, I have legs, I can go by myself."
After saying that, he rolled his eyes and turned away.
Humph, don’t think you can forget everything just by fooling yourself!
Why is it “his and his sister’s room”?
If the two of them move to the small house, where will Cheng Yang live?
Shi Xiaoai made up her mind that if these two kids really made a fuss about how to sleep at night, she would make Cheng Yang stay in the storage room!
It can be seen that Cheng Yang has indeed put all his energy into tidying up the house these days, and every aspect of the house is well tidy.
The quilt in Aunt Liu's house was returned and replaced with two brand new thick quilts with plain flowers.
Shi Xiaoai took a careful look just now and found that the bedding on the bed in the cabin were all military products, which should have been bought by Cheng Yang later.
She pointed at the new quilt and asked Cheng Yang who followed in: "Where did this come from?"
"I asked Aunt Liu to make it. The previous quilt couldn't be patched properly, so I decided to use it as a mattress. Then I made two new quilts."
Cheng Yang said as he lifted the bed sheet for Shi Xiaoai to see.
Only then did Shi Xiaoai see that the new quilt was placed on top of the old mattress. No wonder she felt that the bed looked softer than before.
"Where did you get the cloth coupons?" Shi Xiaoai was more concerned about this.
Before Cheng Yang came back, the three of them had always been covered with one quilt, which was really not enough.
She really wanted to make two new beds, but she needed tickets to buy cloth and cotton, which put her in a very difficult situation.
She was really surprised. Where did this man get so many scarce supplies when he had only been back for a few days? Could it be that the cotton and cloth were also bought from the consignment store?
Don't think she doesn't know. Aunt Liu told her that there are indeed defective cloths sent by textile factories occasionally, but such popular items are often unknown to people outside, so the staff inside the entrusting store divide them up among themselves.
It's not something that just anyone can buy.
Cheng Yang didn't answer her question immediately, but smiled and said, "Wait a moment."
As he spoke, he walked to the wooden boxes stacked together in the bedroom that served as cabinets, opened the top one and took out two toys.
Both toys are brand new and come in beautifully packaged boxes.
Looking through the box, Xiao Ai could see that there was a small green frog made of iron and an orange plastic crab with eight claws.
Both were the most fashionable and expensive wind-up toys at the time.
"One for each person, no fighting over it. If you don't like it, just share it with each other."
After Cheng Yang gave the instructions, he gave them to the two little guys whose eyes were almost shining.
"Oh! Oh! Oh!"
Mingrui and Mingxi were so happy that they could only scream with excitement and couldn't utter a word.
The two children have never had toys of their own since they were born, let alone toys that are so good and new that they have never seen before.
Mingxi hugged the little frog tightly against her chest, her face shining with joy!
She looked up at Cheng Yang and smiled with her eyes narrowed, with extraordinary satisfaction in her eyes.
The little girl suddenly opened her arms and hugged Cheng Yang's legs, pressed her whole body against him, and then rested her face on his pants.
The soft little lump came over and made Cheng Yang completely dumbfounded.
He stood there in a daze, looking down at his little girl. This kind of dependence from a little girl, which he had never felt before, made his eyes red in an instant.
He bent down and wanted to pick up the child, but Mingxi let go of his hand.
The little girl felt a little embarrassed. She looked up at him, smiled shyly, and said softly, "Thank you, Dad."
After saying that, he pulled his brother and ran outside.
"Slow down! Don't run! Watch your back!"
Shi Xiaoai hurriedly shouted to stop them from behind, but neither of the two children turned back.
She couldn't help but glance at Cheng Yang quietly.
I just think this guy is so talented!
The little kitten who was leaning in her arms just now, limp and whining, refusing to let her father hold her, was bribed by a toy in the blink of an eye!
This was something she hadn't expected.
Shi Xiaoai had to admit that she was really jealous.
She didn't bother to ask about the quilt and immediately wanted to go out to look after the kittens. But before she could turn around, Cheng Yang handed her an envelope and said, "This is for you."
