There was a strong milky aroma in the bakery, and the smell spread over the girl and lingered for a long time. Xu Jiaojiao was discovered by these people almost as soon as she got on the bus. Considering the bag she was holding in her hand, the envy in her hearts became even greater.

Look at other people, they buy so much bread at once. I have to think for a long time even if I want to eat a steamed bun. Xu Jiaojiao closed her eyes and didn't care about the whispers of these people.

I was just surprised that I didn’t see Sheng Jie’s mother. I didn’t see her until the car drove away.

After Xu Jiaojiao got off the car, Xie Zhi was waiting there as expected. The girl rushed out happily, and the two hugged each other tightly.

A bunch of young girls and wives are jealous of this man. How could this man be so lucky to have such a good father and mother, and now a good husband? It really makes people hate him.

The girl smiled and opened the bag in her arms: "I bought some bread and will take it to grandpa and grandma first."

Xie Zhi raised his eyebrows and asked, "It's open."

"Well, I made eighteen dollars, and she didn't even bargain."

Xie Zhi half-jokingly said, "Jiaojiao is amazing. She earns more in one day than I do in a month. I will be living off Baobao from now on."

The girl clapped his hands happily and laughed: "You said that, husband, husband and wife are one, what's mine is yours."

After saying that, Xu Jiaojiao dragged Xie Zhi to where his grandparents lived, leaving the man with endless aftertastes in his heart. Looking at the girl's soft and tender hands holding his, he felt indescribable emotion in his heart.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at the girl who had already condensed into substance. He said silently: "Husband and wife are one. Jiaojiao, if you are willing to marry me, I will take it seriously. Don't forget your promise."

The girl will never know what kind of huge waves her casual words have set off in this man's heart, like a traveler drifting on the sea who finally sees the direction of the lighthouse in the raging waves.

The lighthouse is extremely obvious in the dark sea. It is the light of life. To Jiaojiao, it is more important than life.

"Grandma, grandma." Before I even reached the yard, I heard the girl's cheering voice.

Grandma Xu hurriedly put down the clothes in her hands and went out. She wiped her palms on her apron casually, and then greeted with a smile: "Jiaojiao."

"Grandma, I bought you some bread."

Xu Jiaojiao handed over the soft bread in the bag, smiled and said some kind words. Grandma Xu happily took it. The bread gave off a rich milky aroma, which still reached the noses of several people even though the paper bag was not opened.

"Where are grandma and grandpa?"

"I'm discussing something with your father in the field."

"Oh, I'll be leaving first then."

Grandma Xu called her hurriedly, ran into the house, and found a piece of loose change wrapped in cloth at the bottom of the cabinet. She took out ten yuan, put it away, and hurried out.

Seeing her granddaughter and Xie Zhi hugging each other intimately, not knowing what they were talking about, with smiles on their faces like flowers, she thought these two children were such a perfect match. She had felt that this child was good for a long time.

"Jiaojiao, I'll give you some money to buy something delicious."

"Grandma, how can I take your money?" Xu Jiaojiao quickly refused.

But Grandma Xu's face darkened and she pushed the money in forcefully: "The government gives us money every month. Your grandfather and I can't spend much. You can use the money to buy a skirt. Be good."

Seeing that her grandmother said so, Xu Jiaojiao could only take the money. The two of them said a few words intimately and then left.

The girl stuffed ten yuan into her bag and looked at Xie Zhi who was standing next to her without changing her expression: "You don't seem surprised."

"Jiaojiao, in the past you not only asked for money every month, you even took the initiative to ask for it, and gave it all to support others." Xie Zhi said this in a light tone, completely unaware of how much surprise he had brought to the girl.

Xu Jiaojiao was so shocked that she could swallow an egg in her mouth. She had no impression of this before. No wonder her family suspected that she was possessed by evil spirits.

The money in her pocket was like a hot potato. Sure enough, the girl handed the bread to everyone and received unanimous approval. Xu Ze even pretended to wipe away his tears.

He said in a drawn-out tone: "Jiaojiao, I really didn't expect that you cared about us."

"I'm going to die. Isn't Fourth Brother back yet?"

"No."

Dinner had been prepared long ago. Xu Jiaojiao picked a sausage with a little cream for Xie Zhi. She remembered that Xie Zhi had lived abroad and might like it.

The girl leaned on the man's arms and peeled off the paper bag. The rich smell of cake became stronger. The bread was brought to Xie Zhi's mouth and coaxed, "Take a bite."

Xie Zhi looked at the girl with teasing eyes. Just her hand, the aggressive posture and oppression were very strong. He bit it down with a hot look in his eyes.

The girl was a little overwhelmed for a moment, pretending to be calm and said: "I'll try."

It was the taste of old-fashioned bread. When she took a bite, it completely matched her belief in bread. The bread of later generations had so many additives added that it had long lost its original taste.

Xie Zhi raised his eyebrows and asked, "How is it?"

“It’s delicious.”

"I'm going to buy some tomorrow morning and eat freshly baked ones. Honey, it's a pity that you can't go with me so that I can buy the tools for perming my hair."

After Xu Jiaojiao finished speaking, she shamelessly tugged at Xie Zhi's clothes, making his white shirt wrinkled, as if she had done something bad. After doing everything, the girl withdrew her hand guiltily, not daring to look at anyone.

The man's voice was deep and magnetic: "It's okay, it'll be fine on the weekend, Jiaojiao is great."

She felt very strange, her original idea was to become her own heroine, but every time she was around this man she wanted to rely on him, as if she had an indestructible backing behind her.

Her brother and father had not come back yet. They said that Xie Zhi had recovered from the heat in the sun. Xu Jiaojiao simply took her pajamas and went to take a shower. She was not a person who sweated a lot, but in such hot weather, her body still smelled a little.

I really don't know how Xie Zhi managed to kiss me.

After taking a shower, they all came back.

Several people sat at the dinner table and listened to Father Xu's words: "The public grain price has increased again this year, but fortunately the harvest is good."

Mother Yan said, "Get a few more kilograms when the time comes, to avoid any problems."

There are so many situations when collecting public grain that it is often under-weighed.

Xu Jiaojiao saw her father's face and was not in a good mood. She asked tentatively: "Dad, we have not yet dried the rice, but we have to pay the public grain tax. How much do we have to pay?"

Father Xu took a bite of bread and replied, "Five percent."

"Oh." He thought to himself, it's not so bad actually, but most of this rice is not for eating, but for exchanging for various daily necessities such as oil, so 5% is also a huge loss.
