"Thank you for your hard work. Come in and warm yourself by the fire. It's really freezing in this cold weather! I'll ask someone to load the medicinal materials into the car."
Tang Jiancheng quickly asked Jiang Yao to enter the house.
Liu Fangfang enthusiastically moved a stool for Jiang Yao, poured hot tea, found the few pumpkin seeds at home, and the candies Tang Jiancheng bought last time, and placed them in front of Jiang Yao.
"Sister-in-law, you are too polite."
Jiang Yao didn't like these things at all, but Liu Fangfang's attitude was very useful to her.
"Cadre Chiang, I'm a stupid person, so you can eat it yourself."
The last time Jiang Yao came to stay overnight, Liu Fangfang knew that she was a township cadre, and now she drove here again, and she came to pick up her second daughter. She felt more honored, but also very uneasy. She was afraid that the reception would not be good, and she wanted to take her away. Bring out all the delicious food in the house.
But there's really nothing delicious at home!
Although the family has money, if you want Liu Fangfang to buy it by herself, it is impossible. She will buy it only if she is forced to do so. Otherwise, she would rather live without it than buy it.
This is the common characteristic of people who were accustomed to thrifting in that era!
"Xiaoqi, come down and let Jiang cadres drink tea and warm themselves up by the fire." Liu Fangfang scolded.
"I don't."
Xiao Qi doesn't want to leave Jiang Yao's arms.
"Xiaoqi!"
Fifth sister appeared and glared at Xiao Qi.
Xiaoqi immediately came down obediently.
"It's okay, it's still warm when I hold her."
Jiang Yao wanted to hug her, but Xiao Qi didn't dare to let her hug her anymore.
Jiang Yao had no choice but to let go of her, then picked up the hot tea and took a sip. Her beautiful eyebrows instantly wrinkled, how bitter it was!
Just at this time, Tang Jiancheng came in. Seeing Jiang Yao's expression, he hurriedly said to Liu Fangfang: "cadre Jiang is a city girl, how can you serve her Kuding tea? Go and get a cup of sugar water."
"Oh, why didn't you tell me earlier!"
Liu Fangfang quickly went to get sugar water.
Jiang Yao said hurriedly: "Sister-in-law, stop being busy, Kuding tea is very good." Then she said to Tang Jiancheng, "Brother Jiancheng, I am really not that delicate. Please tell sister-in-law not to do it, so as not to waste it."
Tang Jiancheng smiled and said: "Cadre Chiang, we have nothing to entertain in the countryside. I'm really sorry. I bought these candies at the supply and marketing cooperative. They are very sweet. You can eat one."
Jiang Yao couldn't resist Tang Jiancheng's enthusiasm, so she took one and was about to peel it open when she saw the children around her looking at her eagerly. No, they should be looking at the candy in her hand.
She instantly felt a strong sense of guilt and quickly put the candy down again.
"You eat..."
Tang Jiancheng also noticed something was wrong. When he looked back, he found that his daughters' eyes were looking directly at the candy in front of Jiang Yao. He couldn't help but smile and said, "If you want to eat, you can just take it. It's not like there aren't any."
Xiaoliu was the first to rush forward, but found that none of the sisters moved. She paused and quickly put down the candy she had just grabbed.
Tang Jiancheng saw it and was both pleased and distressed.
"If you don't take it, dad will take it for you, okay?"
Tang Jiancheng took one for each person, and then said to the eldest sister, "Take the sisters to play."
"Let's go to the village headquarters."
The eldest sister waved her hand and the children followed her.
Tang Jiancheng said with a smile: "Comrade Chiang, I am making you laugh. Children lack food and clothing since childhood, so they can't walk when they see candies."
Liu Fangfang also came out with sugar water and handed it to Jiang Yao, "Cadre Jiang, you have a taste of the sugar water you just made. If it's not sweet, I'll add more sugar."
"Sister-in-law, this is so sweet. You are so enthusiastic."
Jiang Yao took a sip of sugar water and smiled.
"cadre Chiang, there is nothing we can do. My family is too poor and there is nothing to entertain you, so all I have left is enthusiasm." Tang Jiancheng said, spreading his hands.
Jiang Yao couldn't help but smile after hearing this.
Only then did she realize that Tang Jiancheng was quite humorous.
"Fourth brother, the medicinal materials are packed."
At this time, Tang Jianbing walked in and happened to see Jiang Yao sitting facing the door. The light shone on her. Even though she was wearing an old-fashioned military coat, there was a white sweater underneath, which made her skin more white and tender. Cute, coupled with a refreshing and capable short hair, at this moment, the whole person seems to be shining.
Coupled with the way she held the sugar water in both hands and smiled, Tang Jiancheng was stunned for a moment.
"Okay, Jianbing, you..."
Tang Jiancheng turned around and was about to ask Jianbing to call his second sister back. Suddenly he saw him looking at Jiang Yao blankly, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart.
Isn't it?
Is this silly boy attracted to Jiang Yao?
This is hell level difficulty!
Putting aside Jiang Yao's unfathomable background, she herself is also very good.
A township cadre, who can drive, is good-looking, and is a college student...
None of these items can be matched by Tang Jianbing, a dull man from the countryside.
However, how can we explain the love in this world clearly?
What if this stupid boy has this stupid blessing?
Tang Jiancheng felt that as an elder brother, he had to do his best to help. Otherwise, with Tang Jianbing's conditions and abilities, he would not have been able to catch up with a girl like Jiang Yao in eight hundred years. Maybe he would be delayed because of her. Tang Jianbing lived his whole life.
Because he knew Tang Jianbing's character very well. The more boring the gourd's temper, the more stubborn his temper. Once he recognized it, it might last a lifetime!
"Jianbing, go and call the second sister back, and we will go to the county together."
Tang Jiancheng stood up quickly and pushed Tang Jianbing out. It was very impolite to look at other girls like this, and it could easily arouse other people's resentment.
Once the first impression is bad, it will be difficult to get it back in the future.
"oh."
Tang Jianbing walked away in a daze, looking back at Jiang Yao every few steps.
Not long after, Tang Jianbing came back with his second sister.
"Second sister, hurry up and change a set of clothes. We will follow Aunt Jiang to the county immediately." Tang Jiancheng said.
"Okay, Dad."
The second sister walked into the hut, and Liu Fangfang followed her.
Tang Jianbing sat next to Tang Jiancheng, lowering his head and flicking the charcoal in the brazier, but glanced at Jiang Yao from time to time.
Jiang Yao didn't notice it at first, but when she lowered her head to put down the cup, she suddenly felt it, so she glanced at him. Tang Jianbing suddenly panicked like a frightened rabbit. His movements were so large that he even fell into the brazier with the stool. beside.
Phew!
Jiang Yao couldn't help but laugh.
"Jianbing, you..."
Tang Jiancheng was speechless.
This guy is so worthless. Is it necessary to be so panicked when he sees a beautiful girl?
"Ahem, fourth brother, um, um, I have something to do, so I'm going back first."
Tang Jianbing himself felt so ashamed that he dropped the tongs, turned around and ran away.
"He is your brother?" Jiang Yao asked.
"Yes, his name is Tang Jianbing. He is a big-headed soldier. He is usually very stable. Today, he may have seen..." Tang Jiancheng glanced at Jiang Yao and continued, "That's why he is so flustered, making you laugh. "
Jiang Yao understood what Tang Jiancheng meant, she couldn't help but blush, and unnaturally brushed her hair around her ears.
