There is a married man

When the four returned home, the sun had already set. After saying goodbye to Brother Wang and Sister Wang, Ai Qing and Chen Liang went home.

After working for a long time, Ai Qing was extremely exhausted. After taking a hasty bath, she lay on the bed alone, and closed her eyes as soon as she touched the comfortable quilt.

When Chen Liang came in, he saw that Ai Qing was already sound asleep. After blowing out the oil lamp and lowering the curtain of the bed, he lay down beside Ai Qing gently and carefully. , let’s make dried sweet potatoes tomorrow, okay? Well, it’s delicious, I want to eat it.”

Chen Liang tucked in the quilt, lightly scratched Ren'er's delicate nose, eyes full of doting, and replied softly, "Okay."

Hearing Chen Liang's promise, Ai Qing quickly fell asleep with a happy smile on her face.

Many times in the orphanage, some snacks, such as potato chips and dried sweet potatoes, are made by the dean’s mother herself, and the taste is far better than those sold outside. Ai Qing is one of the many beneficiaries. Ai Qing immediately became excited about snacks, so after waking up the next day, she kept thinking about this matter in her heart.

Potato chips are too fuel-intensive, so I'm afraid they can't be finished for the time being, but dried sweet potatoes don't need any seasoning, they are simple and easy to operate, and as long as they are well stored, there will be no problems in storing them for two months.

Ai Qing asked Chen Liang to take out some sweet potatoes collected yesterday from the grocery room, and filled a large basin of well water for himself. Just as he was about to wash, he heard a sound of children outside the door, so he hurried over to have a look, opened the door, Looking down, I saw a little boy standing outside the door.

The little boy is about 5 or 6 years old. Perhaps because he has been out all the year round, his skin is a bit dark. Although he is tall and thin, he is very strong. There are a pair of big black eyes embedded in his immature face, and he is rolling around playfully. With a witty energy!

He is Wang Xiaohu, the child of Brother Wang's family next door.

"Morning, Auntie." A crisp voice sounded.

Although it was not the first time being called "Auntie", Ai Qing still had goosebumps all over her body, but she had no choice but to accept it because there was no better alternative.

"Morning, Xiaohu, have you had breakfast yet?" Ai Qing smiled brightly as she spoke. There was no way, Ai Qing liked children very much, so she walked over and took Xiaohu's little hand and walked into the house.

"Well, I've eaten. Where's Auntie?" Wang Xiaohu asked happily, raising a cute little face. Uncle Liang's aunt is really beautiful and gentle. In the future, he must marry someone like her. daughter in law.

"Well, I've eaten it too. Your good uncle and I are making dried sweet potatoes, do you want Xiaohu to help?"

"Okay." Xiaohu was very happy, every time he came to see Uncle Liang and Aunt Liang, it would be fun.

When the two came to the well, Chen Liang just came out of the house with a wooden basin. As soon as Wang Xiaohu saw Chen Liang, he called out familiarly, "Good morning, Uncle Liang."

"Well, early." Compared with Ai Qing, Chen Liang's intimacy was much less, but Wang Xiaohu knew Chen Liang well since he was a child, so he was not restrained.

"Uncle, Auntie said she wants to make dried sweet potatoes, so I want to help."

"Well, come here." As always, he said less, but he didn't seem alienated.Ai Qing thought maybe it was the gentleness of Chen Liang that made the children unable to be afraid of him.

I have to say, this may be the beauty in the eye of the beholder.

The three of them sat around the tub, carefully scrubbing the soil-covered sweet potatoes with well water.During this period, Ai Qing would teach Xiaohu how to wash sweet potatoes from time to time, and Wang Xiaohu also listened humbly. Sometimes muddy water splashed on the child's immature face accidentally, and Ai Qing would pick up the clean wet cloth next to him and wipe it carefully. , that appearance is very virtuous, at least in Chen Liang's eyes.

Chen Liang knew that Ai Qing liked children very much. Every time Wang Xiaohu came to the house, Ai Qing's words and expressions could be clearly seen. Although he is very selfish, Chen Liang still hopes that Ai Qing can stay with him forever. If it is really not possible, he can go to another village to adopt one.Although he was persuading himself in this way in his heart, before Ai Qing made a clear statement, Chen Liang's heart was still in suspense.

After the three washed the sweet potatoes, Chen Liang returned to the kitchen with the tub in hand.

Ai Qing cut the sweet potatoes in half and steamed them in a large pot.

Half an hour later, when the sweet potatoes were fully cooked, Ai Qing scooped up the full pot of sweet potatoes, put some of them in small pots and put them on the table to eat directly, most of them peeled and cut into long strips, and put them in the courtyard Sunbathing on the mat in the courtyard, as long as the weather permits, the dried sweet potatoes can be completed in a few days.

Looking at the soft sweet potato fries on the mat in the yard, suspicious liquid flowed out of Wang Xiaohu's mouth. Seeing this, Ai Qing couldn't help laughing, and at the same time gently wiped the saliva for Xiaohu. He kept chanting "you gluttonous brat", but his eyes couldn't stop being happy.

Wang Xiaohu's face ripened into a red apple.

Chen Liang at the side was full of worry and conflict in his eyes.

In the evening, the husband and wife washed up early and went to bed to rest.

Chen Liang was always thinking about Ai Qing's expression when he saw Xiaohu in the afternoon, and he was so entangled in his heart that he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning.

Although Chen Liang turned over very carefully, Ai Qing still sensed that the other party had something on his mind so frequently, turned around and asked Chen Liang, "What's wrong with you, can't you sleep?"

Hearing Ai Qing's worry-filled voice, Chen Liang's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly hid his emotions, helped Ai Qing tuck the quilt, raised a smile, and replied calmly, "I woke you up Is it? Maybe I'm too tired today and feel a little unwell. I won't turn over, you should go to bed early."

Although Chen Liang spoke very calmly, Ai Qing knew that Chen Liang was hiding something in his heart, and it must be related to himself. Don't ask him why he was so sure, he felt that he could know it, just like Chen Liang could always know it Feeling the same in her own heart, Ai Qing stretched out her hand to grab Chen Liang's hand and shook it lightly, frowning and said, "We are married, we should trust each other."

There was no oil lamp, and the room was pitch-black, with only patches of moonlight shining through the window paper, staring at the other party with burning eyes, feeling the warmth attached to his left hand, Chen Liang finally sighed, "Qing'er, can you think about it?" Want a baby?"

"Huh," Ai Qing never thought that Chen Liang would ask himself such a question. Could it be that Chen Liang wants to have a child, and how should he explain the previous oath? Do you regret it?"

Chen Liang knew Ai Qing too well, and when he saw the other party's reaction, he knew that he had misunderstood himself, so he explained again, "Qing'er, I, Chen Liang, swear to God, I have never regretted marrying you. I'm afraid, you You will regret following me."

Hearing Chen Liang's oath, Ai Qing felt relieved immediately, but after hearing the second half of the sentence, she couldn't understand, "Why do you ask that, if you don't regret it, I certainly won't regret it."

"Qing'er, I see you get along with Xiaohu, I know you must like children, but if you are with me, you..."

"I know, don't say it first, Chen Liang, I, Su Aiqing, never regret being with you. Nothing in the world can compare to your position in my heart. You are unique to me. I have always loved you I want a home of my own, thank you for giving it to me, although I may regret not having my own children, but compared to living a happy life with you, nothing is important."

These words not only touched Chen Liang deeply, but also Ai Qing.Ai Qing never thought that Chen Liang would also worry about his feelings for him. He has always obtained love and tenderness from him, but he seems to seldom give him any promises. This time he doesn't want to miss it. The love in my heart is bravely spoken out to let the other party know that I love him deeply, and that love has always been very deep.

His heart was filled with emotion, this was Qing'er's promise to himself, Chen Liang didn't respond, but hugged the soft body in his arms tightly, and eagerly kissed that cute little mouth.

Ai Qing hugged her back and kissed her deeply.

The warmth in the room is heart-warming and will never dissipate for a long time!

The author has something to say: I think of the dried sweet potatoes that my aunt made when I was a child, and I really want to eat them again.

I'm being evil, am I going to ration Ai Qing's child to Xiaohu, ha ha.
