I have 1 after wearing the chronology
Chapter 26
Good guy, Xu Kongshan actually saved more than 300 yuan!
Xu Kongshan used to hide money in the beam hole in the house, but last night he suddenly took it with him on a whim, otherwise it would be inconvenient for Sun Dahua to stare at him today.
The Chen family sitting in the main room discussing matters all focused their attention on the money roll that Xu Kongshan took out. Three hundred is not thirty. It is obvious to all present that Sun Dahua spends money lavishly.
So how did Xu Kongshan save so much money?
What surprises Chen Wan is not the money, but Xu Kongshan's act of saving money. It turns out that he is working hard to change his destiny in a place that he can't see.
Moreover, does Xu Kongshan build a house mean that he will not join the army?
Chen Wan's concern is chaotic. In fact, there is no conflict between joining the army and building a house.
Chen Qianjin asked Xu Kongshan to collect the money. The brick and tile house of the Chen family was built several years ago. He doesn't know the current housing market, so he has to find someone to inquire about it.
Fortunately, Xu Kongshan's requirements are not high, whether it is a brick house or a mud embryo house, as long as it can accommodate people.
"It seems that Dashan is a person who knows how to live, and he can save so much money." Zhou Mei looked relieved, Xu Kongshan's ability to earn money far exceeds that of ordinary villagers, "I will introduce someone to you when the house is built!"
Xu Kongshan subconsciously turned his head to look at Chen Wan, and happened to meet his gaze.Chen Wan lowered her eyes to avoid it, and waited for Xu Kongshan's answer with her ears pricked up.
"No need, Auntie, I never thought about marrying a wife." Xu Kongshan's tone was full of bitterness that he hadn't noticed.
"It's impossible not to marry a daughter-in-law!" Zhou Mei disagreed a hundred times, "You don't know the benefits of marrying a daughter-in-law. When you really have a daughter-in-law, you might blame your aunt for not introducing you earlier. Don't worry, Leave it to my aunt."
"No need." Xu Kongshan refused to no avail, and simply made an excuse, "If you marry someone like my mother, it's better not to marry."
Sun Dahua was an exception among exceptions, how could Zhou Mei find someone like that for Xu Kongshan.
"Okay, I think Dashan is not thinking about marrying a wife now, so don't rush him." Chen Qian stopped talking, "He and Liuer didn't sleep well last night, so go to bed early tonight and have a good sleep. "
"That's right, you guys should hurry up and go to sleep." Zhou Mei put down her matchmaker's mind, "I'll talk about it when I wake up."
Xu Kongshan unwrapped a volume of Great Unity, took a few and handed them to Zhou Mei, claiming that they were for his living and accommodation expenses.How could Zhou Mei accept it? If it wasn't for the presence of Xu Kongshan, she would not have had time to be grateful for the important event she had appointed last night, so how could she accept the money.
Chen Jinjin also asked Xu Kongshan to take back the money: "Don't lie to us."
"Thank you, Uncle Chen and Aunt Zhou." Xu Kongshan flattened the curled banknotes with his palm. Here, he no longer had to carefully hide the money.
Xu Kongshan still sleeps on Chen Yongyang's bed, but Chen Yongyang is fast asleep on Chen Wan's bed.When he learned that he could sleep with Chen Wan, Chen Yongyang was as happy as if it was Chinese New Year.
The movement of Chen Wan's bed woke up Chen Yongyang, he reached out and patted the bed board: "Little uncle, come quickly!"
Chen Wan was used to sleeping alone, suddenly there was Chen Yongyang next to him, and he still couldn't fall asleep after lying down for a long time.
This kid slept very poorly, moving his arms and legs for a while, now his arms and legs were calm, and he was grinding his teeth again.
Chen Wan was very sleepy, he only slept for six hours last night, and Chen Yongyang's fuss had polluted his mind.
With his head throbbing and throbbing, Chen Wan took off Chen Yongyang's leg that was on him for the seventh time, and opened his eyes in the dark to look at the top of the mosquito net.
He wants to sleep!
Chen Wan turned over and sat up, covered Chen Yongyang with a quilt and went to the next room in the dark.
That's great, Xu Kongshan doesn't snore when he sleeps.
Xu Kongshan fell into a deep sleep, and felt something touching him in a daze, so he reached out and hugged him.He opened his eyes slightly, and looked at Chen Wan in blank dismay.
"Liu'er." Xu Kongshan let go of his hands like an electric shock, and the sleepy bug ran away completely, "You..."
"Yongyang sleeps too noisy, I can't sleep because of the noise, Brother Shan, you shouldn't move around while sleeping, right?" Chen Wan couldn't see Xu Kongshan's expression clearly, only felt the man lifted the quilt and pulled him to lie down.
"I won't move around when I sleep, Liu'er, you can sleep at ease." Xu Kongshan went in and gave Chen Wan the warm blanket.
The warmth wrapped Chen Wan in an instant, and he was so comfortable that his bones softened.
No matter whether he soaked his feet before going to bed or not, Chen Wan's feet were always as cold as ice cubes every time he fell asleep.Xu Kongshan gasped from the cold, bent his legs and put Chen Wan's feet into the bends of his legs.
The heat from the soles of the feet made Chen Wan even more drowsy. He slowly closed his eyes, and his breathing became shallow and long.
Chen Wan slept peacefully, and Xu Kongshan's heart became calm along with his breathing, and the spontaneous sense of fulfillment made him extremely comfortable.
It would be great if it could always be like this.
Xu Kongshan was taken aback by the thoughts that popped up in his mind, he seemed to have thought something he shouldn't have.
Chen Wan, who was asleep, automatically approached the heat source, put his hands on Xu Kongshan's chest, and pulled his whole body into his arms.
Xu Kongshan was so stiff that he didn't know where to put his hands, but in order to let Chen Wan sleep comfortably, he tried his best to relax his body to fit him.
After getting used to Chen Wan's existence, Xu Kongshan put his arms around his waist, closed his eyes and fell asleep contentedly.
"Little uncle." Chen Yongyang woke up, stretched out his hand to touch a hole to the side, and opened his eyes abruptly.
Where is his little uncle?What about a little uncle at his age?She obviously slept next to him last night!
Chen Yongyang quickly dressed and got out of bed. There was no sign of Chen Wan in the main room, kitchen, yard or even the toilet.
"Mom, where's little uncle?" Chen Yongyang asked Zhou Mei who was cooking in the kitchen. Chen Xing and his sister had an exam today, and oval eggs rolled in the boiling rice.
"Didn't he sleep with you?" Zhou Mei scooped up the eggs, scooped up half-cooked rice grains and drained the excess rice soup in the Shau Kei.
"No." Chen Yongyang's hair was messed up, and the corners of his eyes were still stained with yellowish gum.
It was only past six o'clock in the morning, Chen Wan would not get up so early.Zhou Mei went to Chen Wan's room in doubt, but there was no one there.
Strange, where did people go?
The biological clock automatically woke up Xu Kongshan, and he carefully bowed his waist to distance himself from Chen Wan.
Having lost her warm embrace, Chen Wan frowned in her sleep.
Xu Kongshan stared at Chen Wan's sleeping face for a while, and when he heard Chen Yongyang's voice, he gently pulled away Chen Wan's hand that was holding onto his clothes.
"Aunt Zhou, Liu'er is in my room." Xu Kongshan lowered his voice.
"Why did Liu'er go to your room?" Facing Zhou Mei's doubts, he looked at Chen Yongyang.
Zhou Mei suddenly thought of her youngest son's sleeping appearance, and cast an annoyed look at Chen Yongyang: "It must be that you kid is dishonest at night and disturbed your little uncle!"
Chen Yongyang curled his lips aggrieved, what can he do if he fell asleep.
After the person was found, Zhou Mei continued to go back to the kitchen to make breakfast. The half-cooked rice grains in Shau Kei were poured into the steamer and steamed in a pot. After washing his face, Xu Kongshan sat down to help light the fire.
Chen Yongyang couldn't sleep, so he went to talk to his two sisters.
"Dashan, let's go first. If you don't wake up at eight or nine, you can call him and let him get up for breakfast."
Zhou Mei and Chen Qianjin packed everything up, and they were going to the county town to buy a sewing machine, and send Chen Xing and sisters to school by the way.Chen Yongyang clamored to go to the county town to join in the fun, so Zhou Mei simply took him along.
Chen Wan had lingering fears about the experience of motion sickness when he first wore it, so when Zhou Mei asked him if he wanted to go last night, Chen Wan firmly shook his head.
Xu Kongshan also didn't want to go. He had nothing to buy, so he might as well stay at home with Chen Wan.
The room was quiet, Xu Kongshan couldn't stay idle, he swept the yard with a big broom, and soaked the clothes he changed yesterday in hot water.There are too many women who like to chatter in the laundry area in the village, and he doesn't like to go there.
Xu Kongshan didn't see Chen Wan coming out after drying his clothes, so he went into the room to wake him up.
Chen Wan slept extremely long and happily, stretching himself under the quilt: "Brother Shan."
His voice was ambiguous when he was just waking up, and his drawn-out tone was like a cat's paw scratching at Xu Kongshan's heart.
Xu Kongshan's throat was dry, his ears were red and he didn't dare to look at Chen Wan's face: "Liu'er, it's time to eat."
"Yeah." Chen Wan turned over on the bed, promised but didn't have the slightest intention of getting up, he was sealed by the bed, "My elder brother and the others have already left?"
"I've been walking for a while." Chen Wan's coquettish tone made Xu Kongshan bubbling as beautifully as eating sugar, "Lie down a little longer, and I'll warm up your clothes on the stove."
The cold padded jacket was warmed and fluffed by Xu Kongshan, and Chen Wan had no excuse to stay in bed.
The same clothes that Zhou Mei left behind would tick for half a day after washing, but Xu Kongshan's floor was extremely dry after washing, like a fully automatic washing machine made of human flesh.
The patched clothes fluttered in the wind. Chen Wan's eyes hurt from seeing it. He stood on the eaves and greeted Xu Kongshan: "Brother Shan, come here."
"What's the matter Liu'er?" Xu Kongshan responded to Chen Wan's call in a second, and strode up to the eaves.
"I made a dress, you can wear it to see if it fits." Chen Wan said as she walked into the room and took out a black and white T-shirt from the closet.
Clothes made for him?
Xu Kongshan was overwhelmed by the flattery, and quickly declined: "Liu Er, you wear it, I have clothes."
Chen Wan secretly annoyed that calling his clothes rags was flattering.
"I'm not experienced in making clothes for the first time, so I accidentally made it too big." Chen Wan didn't say that it was specially made for him. "My elder brother and I couldn't wear it."
Chen Jinjin was shorter than Chen Wan, and his body was thinner. Almost none of the peasants who worked seriously these days were fat.
Chen Wan unfolded the T-shirt and compared it to himself, indicating that he was not lying, and it really looked a lot bigger.
Xu Kongshan was still hesitating, but Chen Wan knew that if he gave it away for nothing, he would definitely not accept it, so she pressed the T-shirt on him: "It cost six yuan to buy the cloth..."
Before Chen Wan finished speaking, Xu Kongshan took out a card of unity: "Thank you Liuer."
He knows it!
"It's too much, just give me six yuan." Chen Wan pushed the money back, he wasn't selling clothes.
"Not many." Xu Kongshan seldom wears new clothes, but it doesn't mean he doesn't understand anything, "There are also cloth tickets."
That would cost less than ten yuan. Chen Wan deducted his labor costs and compared it to eight.Zhou Mei paid for the fabric and tickets, and he will return the eight yuan to Zhou Mei. When he has an independent source of income in the future, he can focus on making clothes for Xu Kongshan.
The two parties reached an agreement, and Xu Kongshan exchanged the Great Unity for one piece of five yuan and three pieces of one piece: "I'm going to change clothes."
He turned around and wanted to leave, but Chen Wan stopped him: "Just change here."
Chen Wan's eyes were calm, as if he was just saying it in passing, and it would be abnormal for Xu Kongshan to refuse.
Xu Kongshan calmly unbuttoned and took off his padded jacket and shirt. The muscles in his chest, waist and arms made Chen Wan dizzy.
"Okay... okay." Xu Kongshan revealed that his heart was not as calm as he showed when he opened his mouth. The main reason was that Chen Wan's gaze was too direct, which made him a little flustered.
Chen Wan applauded himself and Xu Kongshan in his heart. A simple black and white T-shirt appeared on Xu Kongshan's body through his hands. It was so perfect that it could directly appear in the top international fashion shows.
People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, and Xu Kongshan, who has put on new clothes, is more and more in line with Chen Wan's appetite.
The blood on the neckline was directly below Xu Kongshan's Adam's apple, printed on the white collar, against Xu Kongshan's skin, bringing a different visual impact.
"Isn't it suitable?" Chen Wan looked at it for a long time, Xu Kongshan couldn't help but cry out, it was quite cold, and he wanted to put on a padded jacket.
"It fits!" Chen Wan recovered, "The size is just right."
There is no full-length mirror at home, so Xu Kongshan can't see what he looks like at this time, but he can feel that this is the most comfortable piece of clothing he has ever worn.
The length of the cuffs is exactly at the wrist, and the hem of the clothes covers the hip bones. No matter how the arms are stretched, there is no sense of tightness. Xu Kongshan's smile is brighter than the sun at noon in midsummer.
"I haven't washed the clothes since they were finished. You can take them off and wash them before you wear them." The cool wind blowing through the door reminded Chen Wan that it was winter, not the time to appreciate the flesh.
Xu Kongshan changed back to his original clothes and put the T-shirt under the water. The blood stains became permanent marks because they had been attached for too long.
"Is there anything else to do at home?" After sweeping the floor and washing the clothes, Xu Kongshan walked around the yard for a long time, unable to find what to do.
Chen Wan didn't know what was going on in the field. Only Chen Qianjin and Zhou Mei knew if there was any work. Xu Kongshan was bored just sitting there. He thought about it for a while, and the books on the table came into view.
"Brother Shan, why don't I teach you how to read?" There is a textbook from Chen Yongyang's elementary school at home, which is just right for Xu Kongshan to be enlightened.
Can you read?Xu Kongshan was moved, but he still shook his head. Chen Wan had to read a book, so he couldn't delay Chen Wan's time.
Knowing the reason why Xu Kongshan shook his head, Chen Wan smiled slightly and said, "It won't take me much time. I'll teach you a few words first, and then you can practice on your own. Then I'll continue reading. It's a combination of work and rest."
Chen Wan didn't mind that Xu Kongshan didn't go to school, but if he couldn't read, Xu Kongshan would easily suffer.
After all, the desire to read characters prevailed, and Xu Kongshan accepted Chen Wan's kindness.
The height of the desk was too short for Xu Kongshan, so Chen Wan changed the teaching place to the main room, and went to Chen Yongyang's room to find the textbooks for the first grade of elementary school.
Chen Wan wrote down Xu Kongshan's name on the paper, and Xu Kongshan's eyes brightened: "I know this, Uncle Chen taught me."
"Can you write?" Chen Wan handed the pen to Xu Kongshan. The other party shrank his hand, then took the pen and wrote the three characters Xu Kongshan with crooked strokes on the paper.
It was obvious that he couldn't write, but he was trying his best to imitate Chen Wan's handwriting.
"I'll teach you." Standing behind Xu Kongshan, Chen Wan leaned over and held Xu Kongshan's right hand, leading him to write.
Xu, Kong, Shan.
The handwriting written by the two revealed a trace of coarseness in Chen Wan's style. Xu Kongshan felt Chen Wan's palms, chest, and breath, and his distracting thoughts were like a spring breeze blowing by, spreading wildly into a prairie fire.
The pen in his hand was almost deformed by him, and the marks carved by the tip of the pen on the paper could be seen even after turning several pages.
"Brother Shan, be gentle, don't use such force." Chen Wan lifted Xu Kongshan's hand up, and his poor pen tip would split if he wrote any more.
"How do you write Liu'er's name?" Xu Kongshan relaxed, and followed Chen Wan to write down his name.
Chen, late.
"Chen Wan." Xu Kongshan read out aloud, so that's how his name was written.
Xu Kongshan has a strong desire to learn, and as an adult, his comprehension ability and ability to draw inferences from one instance are better than children's. Chen Wan's teaching is very fulfilling.
Xu Kongshan knows numbers and simple addition and subtraction. According to him, there used to be a literacy class in the village, and he attended a class.
After studying for about half an hour, Xu Kongshan took the initiative to stop and urged Chen Wan to read the book.
It was approaching noon, and Zhou Mei and Chen Qianjin hadn't come back yet. The two of them couldn't tell when they would arrive home. Before leaving, Xu Kongshan asked Xu Kongshan to watch the time for lunch by himself, so don't wait.
Xu Kongshan put down his pen and walked to the door of Chen Wan's house: "What would Liu'er want for lunch?"
Chen Wan looked up: "Scrambled eggs with leeks."
Xu Kongshan remembered the experience of eating leeks last time, with an embarrassed expression, he reluctantly said hello.
"Forget it, if you eat too much leek, you will get angry." Chen Wan suppressed a smile, "Let's make a cabbage omelette soup, and also make fried pork with garlic sprouts and fried lettuce."
"The dishes I cook may not be very tasty." Xu Kongshan, who only cooked for a few days when Sun Dahua returned to her mother's house, has a very clear understanding of his cooking skills.His level is limited to cooking sweet potato porridge, and the fried dishes can only be said to be cooked, which has nothing to do with deliciousness.
Chen Wan was silent for a moment, he didn't know how to cook, he only knew how to do things.
There are no leftovers at home, and I can't even make do with it.Probably Xu Kongshan's work performance was so good that Zhou Mei subconsciously thought that his cooking skills were the same as his work.
Chen Wan closed the book: "I want to try Brother Shan's craftsmanship."
The meat was brought back by Zhou Mei from her mother's house. She happened to meet someone butchering a pig there. She didn't need a ticket. She bought a few catties of multi-layered meat and planned to eat it in the next few days.
Xu Kongshan went to the vegetable field behind the house to pull out garlic sprouts, cabbage and the kitchen. Chen Wan peeled off the lettuce's outer skin with a knife, revealing the green and watery inside.
Chen Wan tried her best to recall the method of stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, and instructed Xu Kongshan to cook the meat in the pot first, and then cut it into slices after the chopsticks could be inserted through.
The fire in the stove was raging, and the overheated iron pan was emitting green smoke. When Xu Kongshan put the meat slices into the pan, the sound of crackling oil was like setting off firecrackers.
"Boom!" "Crack!"
Hot oil splashed everywhere, Chen Wan jumped up like a rabbit to hide away, Xu Kongshan flipped the meat with a spatula without changing his face, Chen Wan was terrified.
"Put the fermented soybeans, and you can also put the garlic sprouts!"
After putting these two things down, the explosion in the pot finally subsided. Chen Wan returned to the stove, and Xu Kongshan took a piece of meat with chopsticks and brought it to his mouth for him to taste.Chen Wan exhaled to cool it down, and tentatively bit the meat into her mouth: "It's delicious!"
Although the cooking process is very frustrating, the taste is not bad.
The fire should be big, the oil should be enough, and the salt should be added little by little, so it won't be too bad.
After the two tossed about lunch, Chen Wan looked at the time, hurry up, Zhou Mei and the others should eat outside.
Don't wait, let's eat and eat.
Chen Wan asked Xu Kongshan to sit down, and the air was filled with a seductive aroma.I don't know whether Chen Wan's theoretical knowledge is too rich or Xu Kongshan's hands-on ability is too strong, but the two dishes and one soup taste unexpectedly good.
Zhou Mei and the others came back after three o'clock in the afternoon. At that time, Xu Kongshan was repeating the words Chen Wan taught him.
"Little uncle, we are back!" Chen Yongyang's voice interrupted their progress, Chen Wan greeted them out, Zhou Mei and Xu Kongshan carried something, but the sewing machine was nowhere to be seen.
"Sewing machines are in short supply, and the supply and marketing cooperatives in the county are out of stock, so we registered and let them pick them up next week." Zhou Mei answered Chen Wan's doubts, "Hey, why does that dress hanging in the yard look familiar to me? "
Zhou Mei put down her things and took a closer look. Isn't this the piece of cloth that Chen Yongyang spilled ink on?
"Liu'er, have you made the clothes?" Zhou Mei circled around the T-shirt, not to mention, it still looks good, but it's a little too big.
"Well, it's done." Chen Wan walked to her side, pretending to be inexperienced and made a mistake, "I thought I was going to use all the cloth, but I accidentally made it a lot bigger."
Zhou Mei secretly thought it's a pity, if Chen Wan was younger, it would be more suitable for her.
"But I tried it on Brother Shan today, and he is wearing it just right."
Chen Wan's words made Zhou Mei look at Xu Kongshan, isn't it a coincidence!
"Liu'er, why don't you give this dress to Dashan, and my sister-in-law will make another one for you." Saving like Zhou Mei, when seeing Xu Kongshan's clothes, the first reaction in his mind was too much. It's broken and can't be worn anymore.
She offered to give the clothes to Xu Kongshan, which saved Chen Wan's tongue.
"I'll give it." Chen Wan said as she took out Xu Kongshan's eight yuan, "Sister-in-law, please keep the money, otherwise Brother Shan won't ask for clothes."
Zhou Mei understood Xu Kongshan's temperament, so she had no choice but to accept the money, and calculated the cloth tickets at home: "Does Dashan want to make a new padded jacket? There are a lot of cloth tickets sent by Liu'er and Third Brother. If I want to do it, I will put it together in the next episode Pull the cloth back."
Anyway, I have a sewing machine at home, so it doesn't take much to make more clothes.
Xu Kongshan wanted to make it, since he was going to make a new padded jacket, he might as well make the trousers, which are so short and big, what do they look like.
"Just listen to Aunt Zhou." Xu Kongshan gave the money to Zhou Mei in advance, with a happy and expectant look on his face that made his eyes warm.
At night, due to Chen Yongyang's poor sleeping posture, he was deprived of the qualification to share a bed with Chen Wan.
Xu Kongshan washed himself clean and lay down on Chen Wan's bed.
So fragrant and so soft.
Xu Kongshan quietly lowered his head and sniffed Chen Wan's quilt, with a silly smile on the corner of his mouth, and immediately pretended nothing happened after hearing Chen Wan's footsteps.
Chen Wan had just finished using the toilet, he was not as sleepy as last night, the image of Xu Kongshan lying on his side on the bed hit his eyes, making his heart beat a few beats faster.
Damn it, how could he hold it back!
Chen Wan's waist was weak and his legs were weak. He thought it was to promote Xu Kongshan's feelings for him, but he didn't expect to dig a hole for himself.
Xu Kongshan!Now!lie down!his!bed!
Chen Wan's ears were so red that she dared not approach the edge of the bed.
"Brother Shan...you...you go to bed first, I'll read a book later!" Chen Wan quickly turned around and rushed to the desk, grabbed a book and opened it.
That's right, he was cowardly, he was cowardly!
"Okay, then I'll go to bed first, Liu'er, don't look too late." Under the quilt, Xu Kongshan's clenched fists relaxed, God knows how nervous he was just now!
Go to sleep, just fall asleep, Xu Kongshan closed his eyes tightly and forced himself to fall asleep.
It didn't work though, he could close his eyes but not his ears.
Chen Wan stared at the book in front of her, her eyes were serious but her eyes were not focused at all, even the book in her hand was turned upside down.
As time passed by, Xu Kongshan's mind was full of Chen Wan: Is Liu'er still reading?Why didn't he turn the page?
Creak, the sound of the chair moving was amplified infinitely in the silent space.
When Liu'er came over, Xu Kongshan stiffened and held his breath.
Slap, the lights are off.Chen Wan lay down next to Xu Kongshan. The two of them were no longer as close as they were last night. One was leaning against the wall and the other was curled up on the edge of the bed. There was a Milky Way between their arms.
The two cowards didn't notice each other's abnormality at all. Finally, Chen Wan, who felt that Xu Kongshan should have fallen asleep, couldn't hold back anymore, and moved his legs under the quilt.
The cold toes brushed against Xu Kongshan's calf, Xu Kongshan could no longer escape, and sighed in his heart, covering Chen Wan's feet into the crook of his knees.
Xu Kongshan used to hide money in the beam hole in the house, but last night he suddenly took it with him on a whim, otherwise it would be inconvenient for Sun Dahua to stare at him today.
The Chen family sitting in the main room discussing matters all focused their attention on the money roll that Xu Kongshan took out. Three hundred is not thirty. It is obvious to all present that Sun Dahua spends money lavishly.
So how did Xu Kongshan save so much money?
What surprises Chen Wan is not the money, but Xu Kongshan's act of saving money. It turns out that he is working hard to change his destiny in a place that he can't see.
Moreover, does Xu Kongshan build a house mean that he will not join the army?
Chen Wan's concern is chaotic. In fact, there is no conflict between joining the army and building a house.
Chen Qianjin asked Xu Kongshan to collect the money. The brick and tile house of the Chen family was built several years ago. He doesn't know the current housing market, so he has to find someone to inquire about it.
Fortunately, Xu Kongshan's requirements are not high, whether it is a brick house or a mud embryo house, as long as it can accommodate people.
"It seems that Dashan is a person who knows how to live, and he can save so much money." Zhou Mei looked relieved, Xu Kongshan's ability to earn money far exceeds that of ordinary villagers, "I will introduce someone to you when the house is built!"
Xu Kongshan subconsciously turned his head to look at Chen Wan, and happened to meet his gaze.Chen Wan lowered her eyes to avoid it, and waited for Xu Kongshan's answer with her ears pricked up.
"No need, Auntie, I never thought about marrying a wife." Xu Kongshan's tone was full of bitterness that he hadn't noticed.
"It's impossible not to marry a daughter-in-law!" Zhou Mei disagreed a hundred times, "You don't know the benefits of marrying a daughter-in-law. When you really have a daughter-in-law, you might blame your aunt for not introducing you earlier. Don't worry, Leave it to my aunt."
"No need." Xu Kongshan refused to no avail, and simply made an excuse, "If you marry someone like my mother, it's better not to marry."
Sun Dahua was an exception among exceptions, how could Zhou Mei find someone like that for Xu Kongshan.
"Okay, I think Dashan is not thinking about marrying a wife now, so don't rush him." Chen Qian stopped talking, "He and Liuer didn't sleep well last night, so go to bed early tonight and have a good sleep. "
"That's right, you guys should hurry up and go to sleep." Zhou Mei put down her matchmaker's mind, "I'll talk about it when I wake up."
Xu Kongshan unwrapped a volume of Great Unity, took a few and handed them to Zhou Mei, claiming that they were for his living and accommodation expenses.How could Zhou Mei accept it? If it wasn't for the presence of Xu Kongshan, she would not have had time to be grateful for the important event she had appointed last night, so how could she accept the money.
Chen Jinjin also asked Xu Kongshan to take back the money: "Don't lie to us."
"Thank you, Uncle Chen and Aunt Zhou." Xu Kongshan flattened the curled banknotes with his palm. Here, he no longer had to carefully hide the money.
Xu Kongshan still sleeps on Chen Yongyang's bed, but Chen Yongyang is fast asleep on Chen Wan's bed.When he learned that he could sleep with Chen Wan, Chen Yongyang was as happy as if it was Chinese New Year.
The movement of Chen Wan's bed woke up Chen Yongyang, he reached out and patted the bed board: "Little uncle, come quickly!"
Chen Wan was used to sleeping alone, suddenly there was Chen Yongyang next to him, and he still couldn't fall asleep after lying down for a long time.
This kid slept very poorly, moving his arms and legs for a while, now his arms and legs were calm, and he was grinding his teeth again.
Chen Wan was very sleepy, he only slept for six hours last night, and Chen Yongyang's fuss had polluted his mind.
With his head throbbing and throbbing, Chen Wan took off Chen Yongyang's leg that was on him for the seventh time, and opened his eyes in the dark to look at the top of the mosquito net.
He wants to sleep!
Chen Wan turned over and sat up, covered Chen Yongyang with a quilt and went to the next room in the dark.
That's great, Xu Kongshan doesn't snore when he sleeps.
Xu Kongshan fell into a deep sleep, and felt something touching him in a daze, so he reached out and hugged him.He opened his eyes slightly, and looked at Chen Wan in blank dismay.
"Liu'er." Xu Kongshan let go of his hands like an electric shock, and the sleepy bug ran away completely, "You..."
"Yongyang sleeps too noisy, I can't sleep because of the noise, Brother Shan, you shouldn't move around while sleeping, right?" Chen Wan couldn't see Xu Kongshan's expression clearly, only felt the man lifted the quilt and pulled him to lie down.
"I won't move around when I sleep, Liu'er, you can sleep at ease." Xu Kongshan went in and gave Chen Wan the warm blanket.
The warmth wrapped Chen Wan in an instant, and he was so comfortable that his bones softened.
No matter whether he soaked his feet before going to bed or not, Chen Wan's feet were always as cold as ice cubes every time he fell asleep.Xu Kongshan gasped from the cold, bent his legs and put Chen Wan's feet into the bends of his legs.
The heat from the soles of the feet made Chen Wan even more drowsy. He slowly closed his eyes, and his breathing became shallow and long.
Chen Wan slept peacefully, and Xu Kongshan's heart became calm along with his breathing, and the spontaneous sense of fulfillment made him extremely comfortable.
It would be great if it could always be like this.
Xu Kongshan was taken aback by the thoughts that popped up in his mind, he seemed to have thought something he shouldn't have.
Chen Wan, who was asleep, automatically approached the heat source, put his hands on Xu Kongshan's chest, and pulled his whole body into his arms.
Xu Kongshan was so stiff that he didn't know where to put his hands, but in order to let Chen Wan sleep comfortably, he tried his best to relax his body to fit him.
After getting used to Chen Wan's existence, Xu Kongshan put his arms around his waist, closed his eyes and fell asleep contentedly.
"Little uncle." Chen Yongyang woke up, stretched out his hand to touch a hole to the side, and opened his eyes abruptly.
Where is his little uncle?What about a little uncle at his age?She obviously slept next to him last night!
Chen Yongyang quickly dressed and got out of bed. There was no sign of Chen Wan in the main room, kitchen, yard or even the toilet.
"Mom, where's little uncle?" Chen Yongyang asked Zhou Mei who was cooking in the kitchen. Chen Xing and his sister had an exam today, and oval eggs rolled in the boiling rice.
"Didn't he sleep with you?" Zhou Mei scooped up the eggs, scooped up half-cooked rice grains and drained the excess rice soup in the Shau Kei.
"No." Chen Yongyang's hair was messed up, and the corners of his eyes were still stained with yellowish gum.
It was only past six o'clock in the morning, Chen Wan would not get up so early.Zhou Mei went to Chen Wan's room in doubt, but there was no one there.
Strange, where did people go?
The biological clock automatically woke up Xu Kongshan, and he carefully bowed his waist to distance himself from Chen Wan.
Having lost her warm embrace, Chen Wan frowned in her sleep.
Xu Kongshan stared at Chen Wan's sleeping face for a while, and when he heard Chen Yongyang's voice, he gently pulled away Chen Wan's hand that was holding onto his clothes.
"Aunt Zhou, Liu'er is in my room." Xu Kongshan lowered his voice.
"Why did Liu'er go to your room?" Facing Zhou Mei's doubts, he looked at Chen Yongyang.
Zhou Mei suddenly thought of her youngest son's sleeping appearance, and cast an annoyed look at Chen Yongyang: "It must be that you kid is dishonest at night and disturbed your little uncle!"
Chen Yongyang curled his lips aggrieved, what can he do if he fell asleep.
After the person was found, Zhou Mei continued to go back to the kitchen to make breakfast. The half-cooked rice grains in Shau Kei were poured into the steamer and steamed in a pot. After washing his face, Xu Kongshan sat down to help light the fire.
Chen Yongyang couldn't sleep, so he went to talk to his two sisters.
"Dashan, let's go first. If you don't wake up at eight or nine, you can call him and let him get up for breakfast."
Zhou Mei and Chen Qianjin packed everything up, and they were going to the county town to buy a sewing machine, and send Chen Xing and sisters to school by the way.Chen Yongyang clamored to go to the county town to join in the fun, so Zhou Mei simply took him along.
Chen Wan had lingering fears about the experience of motion sickness when he first wore it, so when Zhou Mei asked him if he wanted to go last night, Chen Wan firmly shook his head.
Xu Kongshan also didn't want to go. He had nothing to buy, so he might as well stay at home with Chen Wan.
The room was quiet, Xu Kongshan couldn't stay idle, he swept the yard with a big broom, and soaked the clothes he changed yesterday in hot water.There are too many women who like to chatter in the laundry area in the village, and he doesn't like to go there.
Xu Kongshan didn't see Chen Wan coming out after drying his clothes, so he went into the room to wake him up.
Chen Wan slept extremely long and happily, stretching himself under the quilt: "Brother Shan."
His voice was ambiguous when he was just waking up, and his drawn-out tone was like a cat's paw scratching at Xu Kongshan's heart.
Xu Kongshan's throat was dry, his ears were red and he didn't dare to look at Chen Wan's face: "Liu'er, it's time to eat."
"Yeah." Chen Wan turned over on the bed, promised but didn't have the slightest intention of getting up, he was sealed by the bed, "My elder brother and the others have already left?"
"I've been walking for a while." Chen Wan's coquettish tone made Xu Kongshan bubbling as beautifully as eating sugar, "Lie down a little longer, and I'll warm up your clothes on the stove."
The cold padded jacket was warmed and fluffed by Xu Kongshan, and Chen Wan had no excuse to stay in bed.
The same clothes that Zhou Mei left behind would tick for half a day after washing, but Xu Kongshan's floor was extremely dry after washing, like a fully automatic washing machine made of human flesh.
The patched clothes fluttered in the wind. Chen Wan's eyes hurt from seeing it. He stood on the eaves and greeted Xu Kongshan: "Brother Shan, come here."
"What's the matter Liu'er?" Xu Kongshan responded to Chen Wan's call in a second, and strode up to the eaves.
"I made a dress, you can wear it to see if it fits." Chen Wan said as she walked into the room and took out a black and white T-shirt from the closet.
Clothes made for him?
Xu Kongshan was overwhelmed by the flattery, and quickly declined: "Liu Er, you wear it, I have clothes."
Chen Wan secretly annoyed that calling his clothes rags was flattering.
"I'm not experienced in making clothes for the first time, so I accidentally made it too big." Chen Wan didn't say that it was specially made for him. "My elder brother and I couldn't wear it."
Chen Jinjin was shorter than Chen Wan, and his body was thinner. Almost none of the peasants who worked seriously these days were fat.
Chen Wan unfolded the T-shirt and compared it to himself, indicating that he was not lying, and it really looked a lot bigger.
Xu Kongshan was still hesitating, but Chen Wan knew that if he gave it away for nothing, he would definitely not accept it, so she pressed the T-shirt on him: "It cost six yuan to buy the cloth..."
Before Chen Wan finished speaking, Xu Kongshan took out a card of unity: "Thank you Liuer."
He knows it!
"It's too much, just give me six yuan." Chen Wan pushed the money back, he wasn't selling clothes.
"Not many." Xu Kongshan seldom wears new clothes, but it doesn't mean he doesn't understand anything, "There are also cloth tickets."
That would cost less than ten yuan. Chen Wan deducted his labor costs and compared it to eight.Zhou Mei paid for the fabric and tickets, and he will return the eight yuan to Zhou Mei. When he has an independent source of income in the future, he can focus on making clothes for Xu Kongshan.
The two parties reached an agreement, and Xu Kongshan exchanged the Great Unity for one piece of five yuan and three pieces of one piece: "I'm going to change clothes."
He turned around and wanted to leave, but Chen Wan stopped him: "Just change here."
Chen Wan's eyes were calm, as if he was just saying it in passing, and it would be abnormal for Xu Kongshan to refuse.
Xu Kongshan calmly unbuttoned and took off his padded jacket and shirt. The muscles in his chest, waist and arms made Chen Wan dizzy.
"Okay... okay." Xu Kongshan revealed that his heart was not as calm as he showed when he opened his mouth. The main reason was that Chen Wan's gaze was too direct, which made him a little flustered.
Chen Wan applauded himself and Xu Kongshan in his heart. A simple black and white T-shirt appeared on Xu Kongshan's body through his hands. It was so perfect that it could directly appear in the top international fashion shows.
People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, and Xu Kongshan, who has put on new clothes, is more and more in line with Chen Wan's appetite.
The blood on the neckline was directly below Xu Kongshan's Adam's apple, printed on the white collar, against Xu Kongshan's skin, bringing a different visual impact.
"Isn't it suitable?" Chen Wan looked at it for a long time, Xu Kongshan couldn't help but cry out, it was quite cold, and he wanted to put on a padded jacket.
"It fits!" Chen Wan recovered, "The size is just right."
There is no full-length mirror at home, so Xu Kongshan can't see what he looks like at this time, but he can feel that this is the most comfortable piece of clothing he has ever worn.
The length of the cuffs is exactly at the wrist, and the hem of the clothes covers the hip bones. No matter how the arms are stretched, there is no sense of tightness. Xu Kongshan's smile is brighter than the sun at noon in midsummer.
"I haven't washed the clothes since they were finished. You can take them off and wash them before you wear them." The cool wind blowing through the door reminded Chen Wan that it was winter, not the time to appreciate the flesh.
Xu Kongshan changed back to his original clothes and put the T-shirt under the water. The blood stains became permanent marks because they had been attached for too long.
"Is there anything else to do at home?" After sweeping the floor and washing the clothes, Xu Kongshan walked around the yard for a long time, unable to find what to do.
Chen Wan didn't know what was going on in the field. Only Chen Qianjin and Zhou Mei knew if there was any work. Xu Kongshan was bored just sitting there. He thought about it for a while, and the books on the table came into view.
"Brother Shan, why don't I teach you how to read?" There is a textbook from Chen Yongyang's elementary school at home, which is just right for Xu Kongshan to be enlightened.
Can you read?Xu Kongshan was moved, but he still shook his head. Chen Wan had to read a book, so he couldn't delay Chen Wan's time.
Knowing the reason why Xu Kongshan shook his head, Chen Wan smiled slightly and said, "It won't take me much time. I'll teach you a few words first, and then you can practice on your own. Then I'll continue reading. It's a combination of work and rest."
Chen Wan didn't mind that Xu Kongshan didn't go to school, but if he couldn't read, Xu Kongshan would easily suffer.
After all, the desire to read characters prevailed, and Xu Kongshan accepted Chen Wan's kindness.
The height of the desk was too short for Xu Kongshan, so Chen Wan changed the teaching place to the main room, and went to Chen Yongyang's room to find the textbooks for the first grade of elementary school.
Chen Wan wrote down Xu Kongshan's name on the paper, and Xu Kongshan's eyes brightened: "I know this, Uncle Chen taught me."
"Can you write?" Chen Wan handed the pen to Xu Kongshan. The other party shrank his hand, then took the pen and wrote the three characters Xu Kongshan with crooked strokes on the paper.
It was obvious that he couldn't write, but he was trying his best to imitate Chen Wan's handwriting.
"I'll teach you." Standing behind Xu Kongshan, Chen Wan leaned over and held Xu Kongshan's right hand, leading him to write.
Xu, Kong, Shan.
The handwriting written by the two revealed a trace of coarseness in Chen Wan's style. Xu Kongshan felt Chen Wan's palms, chest, and breath, and his distracting thoughts were like a spring breeze blowing by, spreading wildly into a prairie fire.
The pen in his hand was almost deformed by him, and the marks carved by the tip of the pen on the paper could be seen even after turning several pages.
"Brother Shan, be gentle, don't use such force." Chen Wan lifted Xu Kongshan's hand up, and his poor pen tip would split if he wrote any more.
"How do you write Liu'er's name?" Xu Kongshan relaxed, and followed Chen Wan to write down his name.
Chen, late.
"Chen Wan." Xu Kongshan read out aloud, so that's how his name was written.
Xu Kongshan has a strong desire to learn, and as an adult, his comprehension ability and ability to draw inferences from one instance are better than children's. Chen Wan's teaching is very fulfilling.
Xu Kongshan knows numbers and simple addition and subtraction. According to him, there used to be a literacy class in the village, and he attended a class.
After studying for about half an hour, Xu Kongshan took the initiative to stop and urged Chen Wan to read the book.
It was approaching noon, and Zhou Mei and Chen Qianjin hadn't come back yet. The two of them couldn't tell when they would arrive home. Before leaving, Xu Kongshan asked Xu Kongshan to watch the time for lunch by himself, so don't wait.
Xu Kongshan put down his pen and walked to the door of Chen Wan's house: "What would Liu'er want for lunch?"
Chen Wan looked up: "Scrambled eggs with leeks."
Xu Kongshan remembered the experience of eating leeks last time, with an embarrassed expression, he reluctantly said hello.
"Forget it, if you eat too much leek, you will get angry." Chen Wan suppressed a smile, "Let's make a cabbage omelette soup, and also make fried pork with garlic sprouts and fried lettuce."
"The dishes I cook may not be very tasty." Xu Kongshan, who only cooked for a few days when Sun Dahua returned to her mother's house, has a very clear understanding of his cooking skills.His level is limited to cooking sweet potato porridge, and the fried dishes can only be said to be cooked, which has nothing to do with deliciousness.
Chen Wan was silent for a moment, he didn't know how to cook, he only knew how to do things.
There are no leftovers at home, and I can't even make do with it.Probably Xu Kongshan's work performance was so good that Zhou Mei subconsciously thought that his cooking skills were the same as his work.
Chen Wan closed the book: "I want to try Brother Shan's craftsmanship."
The meat was brought back by Zhou Mei from her mother's house. She happened to meet someone butchering a pig there. She didn't need a ticket. She bought a few catties of multi-layered meat and planned to eat it in the next few days.
Xu Kongshan went to the vegetable field behind the house to pull out garlic sprouts, cabbage and the kitchen. Chen Wan peeled off the lettuce's outer skin with a knife, revealing the green and watery inside.
Chen Wan tried her best to recall the method of stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, and instructed Xu Kongshan to cook the meat in the pot first, and then cut it into slices after the chopsticks could be inserted through.
The fire in the stove was raging, and the overheated iron pan was emitting green smoke. When Xu Kongshan put the meat slices into the pan, the sound of crackling oil was like setting off firecrackers.
"Boom!" "Crack!"
Hot oil splashed everywhere, Chen Wan jumped up like a rabbit to hide away, Xu Kongshan flipped the meat with a spatula without changing his face, Chen Wan was terrified.
"Put the fermented soybeans, and you can also put the garlic sprouts!"
After putting these two things down, the explosion in the pot finally subsided. Chen Wan returned to the stove, and Xu Kongshan took a piece of meat with chopsticks and brought it to his mouth for him to taste.Chen Wan exhaled to cool it down, and tentatively bit the meat into her mouth: "It's delicious!"
Although the cooking process is very frustrating, the taste is not bad.
The fire should be big, the oil should be enough, and the salt should be added little by little, so it won't be too bad.
After the two tossed about lunch, Chen Wan looked at the time, hurry up, Zhou Mei and the others should eat outside.
Don't wait, let's eat and eat.
Chen Wan asked Xu Kongshan to sit down, and the air was filled with a seductive aroma.I don't know whether Chen Wan's theoretical knowledge is too rich or Xu Kongshan's hands-on ability is too strong, but the two dishes and one soup taste unexpectedly good.
Zhou Mei and the others came back after three o'clock in the afternoon. At that time, Xu Kongshan was repeating the words Chen Wan taught him.
"Little uncle, we are back!" Chen Yongyang's voice interrupted their progress, Chen Wan greeted them out, Zhou Mei and Xu Kongshan carried something, but the sewing machine was nowhere to be seen.
"Sewing machines are in short supply, and the supply and marketing cooperatives in the county are out of stock, so we registered and let them pick them up next week." Zhou Mei answered Chen Wan's doubts, "Hey, why does that dress hanging in the yard look familiar to me? "
Zhou Mei put down her things and took a closer look. Isn't this the piece of cloth that Chen Yongyang spilled ink on?
"Liu'er, have you made the clothes?" Zhou Mei circled around the T-shirt, not to mention, it still looks good, but it's a little too big.
"Well, it's done." Chen Wan walked to her side, pretending to be inexperienced and made a mistake, "I thought I was going to use all the cloth, but I accidentally made it a lot bigger."
Zhou Mei secretly thought it's a pity, if Chen Wan was younger, it would be more suitable for her.
"But I tried it on Brother Shan today, and he is wearing it just right."
Chen Wan's words made Zhou Mei look at Xu Kongshan, isn't it a coincidence!
"Liu'er, why don't you give this dress to Dashan, and my sister-in-law will make another one for you." Saving like Zhou Mei, when seeing Xu Kongshan's clothes, the first reaction in his mind was too much. It's broken and can't be worn anymore.
She offered to give the clothes to Xu Kongshan, which saved Chen Wan's tongue.
"I'll give it." Chen Wan said as she took out Xu Kongshan's eight yuan, "Sister-in-law, please keep the money, otherwise Brother Shan won't ask for clothes."
Zhou Mei understood Xu Kongshan's temperament, so she had no choice but to accept the money, and calculated the cloth tickets at home: "Does Dashan want to make a new padded jacket? There are a lot of cloth tickets sent by Liu'er and Third Brother. If I want to do it, I will put it together in the next episode Pull the cloth back."
Anyway, I have a sewing machine at home, so it doesn't take much to make more clothes.
Xu Kongshan wanted to make it, since he was going to make a new padded jacket, he might as well make the trousers, which are so short and big, what do they look like.
"Just listen to Aunt Zhou." Xu Kongshan gave the money to Zhou Mei in advance, with a happy and expectant look on his face that made his eyes warm.
At night, due to Chen Yongyang's poor sleeping posture, he was deprived of the qualification to share a bed with Chen Wan.
Xu Kongshan washed himself clean and lay down on Chen Wan's bed.
So fragrant and so soft.
Xu Kongshan quietly lowered his head and sniffed Chen Wan's quilt, with a silly smile on the corner of his mouth, and immediately pretended nothing happened after hearing Chen Wan's footsteps.
Chen Wan had just finished using the toilet, he was not as sleepy as last night, the image of Xu Kongshan lying on his side on the bed hit his eyes, making his heart beat a few beats faster.
Damn it, how could he hold it back!
Chen Wan's waist was weak and his legs were weak. He thought it was to promote Xu Kongshan's feelings for him, but he didn't expect to dig a hole for himself.
Xu Kongshan!Now!lie down!his!bed!
Chen Wan's ears were so red that she dared not approach the edge of the bed.
"Brother Shan...you...you go to bed first, I'll read a book later!" Chen Wan quickly turned around and rushed to the desk, grabbed a book and opened it.
That's right, he was cowardly, he was cowardly!
"Okay, then I'll go to bed first, Liu'er, don't look too late." Under the quilt, Xu Kongshan's clenched fists relaxed, God knows how nervous he was just now!
Go to sleep, just fall asleep, Xu Kongshan closed his eyes tightly and forced himself to fall asleep.
It didn't work though, he could close his eyes but not his ears.
Chen Wan stared at the book in front of her, her eyes were serious but her eyes were not focused at all, even the book in her hand was turned upside down.
As time passed by, Xu Kongshan's mind was full of Chen Wan: Is Liu'er still reading?Why didn't he turn the page?
Creak, the sound of the chair moving was amplified infinitely in the silent space.
When Liu'er came over, Xu Kongshan stiffened and held his breath.
Slap, the lights are off.Chen Wan lay down next to Xu Kongshan. The two of them were no longer as close as they were last night. One was leaning against the wall and the other was curled up on the edge of the bed. There was a Milky Way between their arms.
The two cowards didn't notice each other's abnormality at all. Finally, Chen Wan, who felt that Xu Kongshan should have fallen asleep, couldn't hold back anymore, and moved his legs under the quilt.
The cold toes brushed against Xu Kongshan's calf, Xu Kongshan could no longer escape, and sighed in his heart, covering Chen Wan's feet into the crook of his knees.
