Back in the courtyard, Su Wen threw himself on the bed and fell asleep. His tired body completely relaxed, and he felt a sense of comfort and relaxation that he had never experienced before. At this moment, all the tension and pressure disappeared, and he seemed to have entered a world with no one but himself.
His consciousness gradually blurred, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally he fell into sleep completely. In his dream, he saw himself collecting fish on the river bank.
When Su Wen woke up, the sun was already shining on his face through the window. He felt a sense of relaxation and joy that he had never experienced before, as if all the fatigue and stress had disappeared along with the dream.
He slowly sat up, feeling the softness and comfort of the bed. He thought of his dream last night, the scene of collecting fish on the riverbank, which made him feel a sense of satisfaction and relief that he had never experienced before.
He got up and walked to the door. When he saw the sunny yard, he felt a sense of peace and tranquility in his heart. He opened the door and walked out of the room, feeling the fresh morning air and the warmth of the sun.
When he walked to the middle courtyard, he saw Qin Huairu washing clothes. In the sunshine, Qin Huairu looked gentle and virtuous. Her long hair was draped casually on her shoulders, swaying gently with the rhythm of washing.
Su Wen walked over and said hello: "Sister-in-law is washing clothes. Why don't you wait until later? The sun is so hot that it's too much."
Qin Huairu looked up at Su Wen and smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter. The sun will be stronger later, so it's just right to wash it now. Besides, there are other things to do later."
When Qin Huairu raised his head, Su Wen saw a touch of white spring light. The weather was hot, Qin Huairu was wearing cool clothes, and from Su Wen's angle, he could just see the trembling of her huge breasts.
Su Wen's heartbeat accelerated instantly, and a blush appeared on his face. He couldn't bear to look away and coughed to hide his embarrassment.
Qin Huairu also noticed Su Wen's abnormality. Qin Huairu saw that Su Wen's face was a little red and understood a little bit. She laughed softly and said, "Su Wen, why are you blushing and embarrassed to talk to your sister-in-law?" Qin Huairu felt even happier when she saw Su Wen's shy look.
The married woman was so tough that Su Wen was a little worried about being hooked by Qin Huairu, so he quickly turned on the faucet and washed his face before going back to the backyard.
"Su Wen, come and help me twist the sheets together."
When Su Wen heard Qin Huairu's greeting, there was a trace of hesitation on his face. He looked at Qin Huairu and then at his own hands, wondering whether he should help.
"What's wrong, Su Wen, you don't want to help your sister-in-law?" Qin Huairu looked at Su Wen's hesitation and asked with a smile.
"No, sister-in-law, I'll be here right away." Su Wen quickly waved his hand and walked to Qin Huairu's side. He took the sheets from Qin Huairu's hand and twisted them vigorously.
Qin Huairu looked at Su Wen's hard work and burst into laughter.
"Sister-in-law, why are you laughing?" Su Wen asked with some confusion.
"It's nothing, I just think you are very cute, like a child." Qin Huairu said with a smile.
After Su Wen heard this, his face turned red and he didn't know how to answer.
"Qin Huairu, what are you doing? Have the clothes been washed? After washing, go home and cook quickly. It's already time, why don't you make lunch soon." Jia Zhang's voice came from the room, mixed with a few words. A small cry.
When Qin Huairu heard Jia Zhang's urging, she quickly put away her smile and started washing clothes seriously. "Mom will wash it soon."
Jia Zhang's voice sounded again, "Qin Huairu, can you hurry up? The child has been crying for a long time, why don't you come yet? You just dawdle around doing some work, what do you look like!"
Qin Huairu's face changed slightly when she heard this, but she didn't speak and just speeded up the washing.
Su Wen smelled a burning smell as soon as he walked through the hanging flower door. He looked towards the source of the smell and saw thick smoke coming from the kitchen of Xu Damao's house, and the light of the fire was faintly visible.
on fire! "Su Wen exclaimed and immediately ran towards the kitchen of Xu Damao's house.
When he rushed to the kitchen, he saw that the fire was already quite intense and the entire kitchen was enveloped in thick smoke. He shouted to Lou Xiao'e who was still in a daze: "Get out quickly and get out of the way."
When Lou Xiao'e heard Su Wen's words, she immediately came to her senses and ran out of the kitchen.
When Su Wen saw the source of the fire in the pot, he quickly picked up the lid next to it, covered it on the burning iron pot, wrapped the handle of the iron pot with a rag and took the pot off the stove. The fire was quickly extinguished, but thick smoke still filled the entire kitchen. Su Wen choked on his cigarette and ran out of the kitchen.
"Cough cough cough..." Su Wen ran out of the kitchen and coughed a few times. After taking a few breaths of fresh air outside, Su Wen felt much better.
The people who stayed in the courtyard smelled the pungent smell of smoke, and were led by the aunt to the backyard with a water basin.
"What's going on with Su Wen?" Aunt asked.
Su Wen looked at the aunt and others and explained: "I don't know what happened. I just came back from washing my face in the central courtyard when I saw smoke coming from the kitchen of Xu Damao's house. I went in and saw that Xu Damao's wife was inside. The pot caught fire, so I asked her to come out, put the lid on the iron pot and took it off the stove."
"Why did the kitchen catch fire?" the aunt asked doubtfully.
Lou Xiao'e, who was stared at by everyone, explained sheepishly: "I was frying eggs in the kitchen. I don't know what happened, but the iron pan caught fire. I poured a ladle of water into it. Unexpectedly, the flames became even bigger, and even the smoke came out. I was so frightened by the fire.”
Hearing Lou Xiao'e's explanation, Aunt Ma breathed a sigh of relief, "Xiao'e can't add water when the pot is on fire. Just cover the pot or take the pot off the stove."
Lou Xiao'e heard what Auntie said and nodded in realization, "So that's it. I was really frightened at the time and didn't know what to do. Thank you Auntie, I will pay attention to it in the future."
The thick smoke in the kitchen slowly dissipated. Su Wen walked over and checked that there was no other open flame except the stove.
"Auntie is fine, let everyone disperse."
"Wait a minute." Lou Xiao'e called to the people who came to the backyard to help. She ran back to her home and took out a package of things wrapped in straw paper. "Auntie, I'm causing trouble for everyone today. This is a pound of fruit candy. You can take it and share it with everyone. Thank you everyone for coming to help today."
The aunt took the fruit candy handed over by Lou Xiao'e and showed a happy smile on her face, "Xiao'e, what are you doing? We are all neighbors and we should help each other."
Lou Xiao'e nodded, "I know, Auntie, you know I don't lack this pack of fruit candies at home, so take them and share them."
"Thank you very much, Xiao'e." The eldest mother smiled and took the fruit candies, then turned to everyone and said, "Let's go back to the central courtyard to distribute the candies."
