I just want to be a good person

Chapter 245 Grandma, do you know Ma Dongmei?
The lunch was hearty. Besides chicken and fish, Lin Xiaocao also fried two vegetables.

Mother Lin took out two glasses from the cabinet and poured a glass for herself and Shen Wang.

The three sat around the small wooden table. Before moving the chopsticks, Mother Lin gently raised the wine glass and glanced at Shen.

Shen Wang hurriedly raised his glass too: "Auntie, I respect you."

"Ah."

Mother Lin nodded and took a sip, while Shen Wang raised his neck and drank it down.

The strong acrimony irritated his throat, this should be the strongest and worst wine Shen Wang had ever drunk, he couldn't help coughing a few times.

Lin Xiaocao hurriedly poured a cup of hot water, while Lin Mu just gently moved Shen Wang's wine glass, as if she didn't intend to let him drink any more.

"Ahem, Auntie, I'm fine, but I'm in a hurry to drink."

Shen Wang waved his hand, picked up the wine bottle and poured himself another glass. Mother Lin didn't say anything when she saw it, but signaled Lin Xiaocao with her eyes to bring food to Shen Wang.

The meal for the three of them was quite dull, mainly because Mother Lin had always been reticent, no matter what topic Shen Wang was looking for, she just nodded and only said one sentence during the whole meal.

"The chicken and fish are cooked by restaurants in town."

But Shen Wang saw that the active atmosphere failed, so he could only eat food in suspense in the end, cleaned up all the dishes, and even ate three bowls of rice.

After dinner, Lin Xiaocao started to tidy up the dishes, Shen Wang also rolled up his sleeves to help, and Lin's mother went back to her room for an afternoon nap.

Seeing the wooden door being gently closed, Shen Wang finally heaved a sigh of relief, and asked Lin Xiaocao in a low voice, "Is your mother always so quiet?"

"Ah."

Lin Xiaocao nodded.

Shen Wang suddenly realized: "No wonder you are so stupid."

"..."

Lin Xiaocao blushed while washing dishes, while Shen Wang went to the yard to smoke.

In the afternoon, there was no barking of dogs in the village, and it was quieter than when we came here. There was no cloud in the blue sky, and there were only a few crooked wires as far as the eye could see.

After squatting at the courtyard door and smoking a cigarette, Lin Xiaocao also came over after washing the dishes, and asked softly, "Do you want to sleep for a while?"

Shen Wang smirked and said, "Sleep with you?"

"You, what are you talking about..."

Lin Xiaocao blushed and quickly looked back at a certain window, and explained in a low voice, "You can go to my room to sleep, I don't sleep at noon."

Shen Wang knew that Lin Xiaocao didn't have the habit of taking a lunch break, so he stamped out the cigarette butt and stood up.

"What's the point of not sleeping together? Okay, I'll go out and walk around by myself."

"Then I will accompany you."

"No, you can pack your luggage at home, we will leave early tomorrow morning."

"Huh? Is it so early?"

Lin Xiaocao already knew that Shen Wang was here to pick her up to school this time, but she didn't expect to leave in such a hurry.

But she really didn't have much to do at home. Apart from being reluctant to leave her mother, it didn't make any difference whether it was earlier or later.

"I'll pack the luggage at night, and I'll accompany you first..."

"It's all over!"

Shen Wang frowned, and said in dissatisfaction: "Your village is too big, can I still get lost?"

"Yes, but..."

"Stop rambling, I'll be right back."

Shen Wang put down a word and left the courtyard. Lin Xiaocao hesitated for a long time, worried but afraid of making Shen Wang angry, so she had to timidly shout behind her:

"You, remember to call me if you can't find your way."

"understood!"

Shen Wang didn't look back, and walked towards the entrance of the village relying on his impressions.

……

Those two old ladies were still sitting on the roadside at the entrance of the village.

Shen Wang walked over and asked loudly, "Grandma, how can I get to the village chief's house?"

An old lady asked back, "Whose family?"

"The village chief's house!"

"What's the matter with the village chief's family?"

"How to go!"

"Where do we go?"

"The village chief's house!"

"What's up with his family?"

Shen Wang: "...Grandma, do you know Ma Dongmei?"

"I recognize you, the daughter of the old Ma's family."

Shen Wang: "..."

After a lot of tossing, Shen Wang finally made the two old ladies understand his problem, and successfully found the yard of the village chief's house.

Compared to the dilapidated Lin's house, the courtyard walls and gates of the village head's house are not grand, but at least they are new.

"Dong dong dong" knocked on the courtyard door a few times, and soon a middle-aged woman opened the door.

"Who are you looking for?"

The woman's face was a bit vigilant, after all, it is rare to see a new face in this village all year round, let alone a boy dressed in foreign style like Shen Wang.

"I'm Lin Xiaocao's boyfriend. I'm here to talk to the village chief about something." Shen Wang replied with a smile.

"Oh, what a silly man!"

The woman was a little surprised, but still let Shen Wang into the courtyard, turned around and shouted into the room: "Come out, someone is looking for you!"

"Come on, come on, call Sazi!"

Soon, a man in a coat wandered out of the room, looked Shen Wang up and down, and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

"Ha ha."

Shen Wang smiled, and fumbled out a red envelope that he had prepared a long time ago from his pocket: "Uncle, let's talk in the room."

……

When the end of the sky was dyed orange red by the setting sun, Shen Wang finally wandered back to the small courtyard of the Lin family.

Lin Xiaocao was standing at the courtyard gate looking left and right, looking very much like a little daughter-in-law waiting for her husband to come home.

"Where have you been?"

When Shen Wang walked up to her, she hurriedly asked.

"I didn't go anywhere, I just wandered around."

Shen Wang answered casually, and when he walked into the yard, he immediately saw Mother Lin who was busy in the house.

"Auntie, I'm back."

"Ah."

Mother Lin nodded, but this time she said three more words.

"time to eat."

Dinner is much simpler than lunch, but there are still two meat dishes.

The three finished eating quickly, and watched TV with only two channels together for a while.

The TV was small, and the picture was a little blurry. The figures in the picture were distorted from time to time, a bit like supernatural events common in horror movies.

But this small TV is all Lin's daily entertainment activities.

After sitting in the room for a while, Shen Wang found an excuse to go out and call Zhu Yao. When he came back, Lin Xiaocao had almost made his bed.

There are only two bedrooms in the bungalow, usually one for Lin's mother and one for Lin Xiaocao.

But now that Shen Wang is here, Lin Xiaocao has no choice but to sleep with her mother and make room for Shen Wang to sleep in.

"It's all new."

Lin Xiaocao knelt on the small bed and tucked the four corners of the sheets, then turned around and said, "I added an extra layer of cushions, can you try to see if they are soft?"

"I'm not that hypocritical."

Shen Wang waved his hand, took out his phone and checked the time, it was only eight o'clock.

"Do you go to bed so early at home?"

"Well, it gets dark quickly in the village."

Lin Xiaocao answered seriously.

It is obvious that this sentence does not conform to the common sense of geography, but Shen Wang understood after a second thought.

Compared with the bright lights in the city at night, this small village that doesn't shit is indeed basically out of light now, so it's no wonder Lin Xiaocao said that it was getting dark quickly.

"Then, then you should rest early."

Lin Xiaocao seemed a little afraid that Shen Wang would "handle" her at home, so she slowly moved to the door after making the bed.

Shen Wang didn't think too much about it, his mother-in-law was next door right now, so he wouldn't tease Lin Xiaocao at this moment.

When Lin Xiaocao closed the door and went out, he lay down on the slightly hard bed, ready to read a novel before going to bed.

The small circle that was being loaded turned around and around, only then did Shen Wang realize that there was only one grid left of the signal in the upper left corner.

It seems that Lin Xiaocao really didn't lie to herself before, the signal in the room was really bad.

Since he couldn't play with his mobile phone, Shen Wang simply closed his eyes and went to sleep.

In the next room, there was the faint sound of Lin Xiaocao's mother and daughter talking, but he couldn't hear the content clearly, and soon fell asleep in a daze.

In this night, there was no roar of car engines, no noise from the crowd, it seemed that only his own heartbeat and the blushing whispers of the girl remained in the whole world.
