After the water in the bathtub was drained, Cheng Mingyue used the shower head to rinse Lu Chen clean, and then filled another bathtub with spiritual spring water for him to soak in.
This was repeated several times until Lu Chen's body stopped oozing black mud, and then Cheng Mingyue carried him back to the room.
Lu Chen almost buried his face in Cheng Mingyue's arms. He felt as if their identities had been swapped. Being hugged by Cheng Mingyue like this made him nervous and excited. He couldn't explain what the feeling was, but he felt sweet in his heart.
Cheng Mingyue was actually no worse off, her face was also burning terribly.
As soon as Cheng Mingyue carried Lu Chen back to the room, she hurriedly slipped into the space.
The cause was that Cheng Mingyue was using a towel to wipe Lu Chen's body, and accidentally touched his sensitive parts. The elastic touch was so hot that Cheng Mingyue couldn't help but shiver.
After that, neither of them dared to look at each other and tried their best to avoid each other's sight. Cheng Mingyue even hid directly in the space.
It was not until Cheng Mingyue entered the space that Lu Chen realized that he would be alone in the empty room tonight.
Lu Chen tossed and turned in bed for several hours before falling into a drowsy sleep.
Cheng Mingyue in the space was the same as usual. She ran around in the space for more than an hour, took a spiritual spring bath, and then began to take care of her own space.
Cheng Mingyue first harvested a wave of vegetables, then turned around to take a look at the fish pond. She was pleasantly surprised to find that there were not only fish in her pond, but also loaches, eels, snails and even crayfish that had grown quite big.
Cheng Mingyue guessed that it might be because she had brought the river water into the space before, and these things were mixed in the river water, but it was too small at the time, so she had never noticed it.
There were also several fruit trees that she had dug from the mountain before, and they were now full of fruits.
Cheng Mingyue picked one and tasted it. It was sweet, crispy and very juicy.
The original owner had seen this kind of fruit tree in the mountains before. The fruits on it were sour and astringent. No one in the village would pick this fruit to eat even if they were very hungry.
Cheng Mingyue transplanted the fruit trees into the space just to give it a try, but she didn't expect such a surprise.
Cheng Mingyue tried them one by one, then sat on the bed with satisfaction. She picked up the wool she had bought at the supply and marketing cooperative and prepared to knit a sweater for everyone in her family so that they could wear it in autumn.
Before, when she was in the supply and marketing cooperative, she fell in love with this wool yarn at first sight. The wool was soft and long, and the color was particularly bright. She couldn't let it go just by looking at it. It was many times better than the various synthetic chemical fibers in later generations.
Speaking of Cheng Mingyue's knitting skills, they are also top-notch. At the beginning, she learned from the head teacher's mother. At that time, she could only knit scarves and gloves.
After that, she bought various knitting tutorials and learned more and more patterns. Maybe she had a talent in this area, and finally she could design many complicated and beautiful patterns by herself.
She remembered that her college roommate wanted to knit a scarf for her boyfriend, and the pattern that symbolized good luck was designed by her. She was also the one who taught her how to knit it stitch by stitch.
It is said that the roommate’s boyfriend almost cried after receiving the scarf, and their relationship quickly heated up. They said they would get married immediately after graduation. I wonder what happened to them after the apocalypse broke out?
Cheng Mingyue sighed. Now separated by two time and space, she could only live in the present.
The next day, Cheng Mingyue pretended nothing had happened and left the space. She first fetched water to wash herself, and then fetched a basin of water for Lu Chen.
Ever since Cheng Mingyue left the space, Lu Chen's eyes have been following her. When he saw her fetching water for him, he said "thank you" and started brushing his teeth and washing his face.
After everything was cleaned up, he watched Cheng Mingyue go into the kitchen to cook.
Lu Chen lowered his head somewhat disappointedly. He really wanted to go to the kitchen with them. He would be happy even if he just watched from the side or just said a few words.
Just when Lu Chen was emo, Cheng Mingyue came in with a plate of washed fruits. She put the fruits on the table, handed an apple to Lu Chen, and asked tentatively: "Do you want to go to the kitchen with me?"
When Lu Chen heard Cheng Mingyue's question, his eyes lit up with joy and he nodded heavily: "I want to go."
I want to be with you!
Lu Chen added another sentence in his heart.
Cheng Mingyue smiled helplessly and said, "Wait."
After saying that, Cheng Mingyue moved two chairs into the kitchen, then returned, picked up Lu Chen, and placed him on a chair, with his injured left leg resting on another chair.
Lu Chen enjoyed Cheng Mingyue's attentive service, but he felt mixed emotions in his heart.
Lu Chen remembered that Cheng Mingyue had said before that she had taken care of the sick headmistress's mother. This must be something she was used to doing, which was why she was so attentive to him and would accommodate him because of his little emotions.
Mingyue, I will definitely be doubly good to you, so that the rest of your life will be sweet and without any bitterness.
Lu Chen wanted to tell Cheng Mingyue loudly, but he opened his mouth and said nothing in the end.
A thousand or ten thousand sweet words are not as good as a real thing done for her sincerely. He doesn't want to promise her too many empty promises. Let's see what he will do in the future.
Cheng Mingyue had no idea what Lu Chen was thinking. She was concentrating on cooking pumpkin porridge.
She actually wanted to cook century egg and lean meat porridge at first, but there were no century eggs, so she cooked pumpkin porridge first and waited until she made the century eggs.
After cooking the pumpkin porridge, Cheng Mingyue baked some three-strand pancakes and stir-fried a few home-cooked dishes.
Breakfast is eaten in the kitchen.
Cheng Mingyue wanted to move Lu Chen out, so the two of them ate in the yard. However, Lu Chen said he was afraid of causing trouble for Cheng Mingyue, so the two of them sat in the kitchen and finished their breakfast.
After Cheng Mingyue finished cleaning up, she moved Lu Chen back to the room, took out the sweater she had knitted halfway last night, sat on the bed, and started knitting quickly with her fingers flying.
Lu Chen was reading a book at first. He was very curious to see Cheng Mingyue knitting a sweater. He closed the book and stared at her fingers.
Lu Chen's gaze was too intense for Cheng Mingyue to ignore. She raised her eyes to meet his curious gaze and jokingly said, "Why, do you want to learn?"
Cheng Mingyue was just asking casually, but she didn't expect Lu Chen to nod.
Cheng Mingyue was stunned for a moment, then asked again uncertainly: "Do you really want to learn?"
"Yeah." Lu Chen answered with certainty.
Cheng Mingyue looked at Lu Chen with a smile in her eyes and asked, "Don't you think this is something only women learn?"
"How could that be? Aren't we advocating for gender equality now? I don't think these things are meant for women to do, and it would be disgraceful for men to do them!"
Lu Chen stared at Cheng Mingyue with his dark eyes and answered very seriously.
Lu Chen's answer pleased Cheng Mingyue, and the smile in her eyes deepened a little.
Lu Chen is fine.
He is really nice!
