"I'll leave after dinner tonight. I've already asked for a day off, so I can't be late anymore."
The two were chatting when they heard a knock on the door. Xiaoqi, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, ran to open the door and said cheerfully: "Sister Yuxi, why are you here?"
"I have something to ask your brother, can you come in and talk?"
"sure."
When Shui Jianguo heard that he was here, he left the room, walked up to Cao Yuxi, and asked gently: "What does Comrade Cao want from me?"
"I'm running out of cream. Can you please bring me a box when you come back next time? I'll give you the money."
"Yes, yes, but what brand do you want?"
"Shanghai brand ice cream, bottled. I bought it in Beijing for only RMB 8 cents. I'll give you a dollar, and you can refund the extra or make up for the extra, okay?" Cao Yuxi smiled slightly, and her ordinary facial features revealed a sweetness.
Shui Jianguo nodded, took the money handed over, and warned: "If Cao Zhiqing has nothing to do, go back and rest. He has to work in the afternoon."
"Hey, let's talk next time."
Cao Yuxi looked at the neatly closed courtyard door and sighed softly. Shui Jianguo is just a piece of wood.
Every time he takes a vacation, he comes by himself. There is nothing special about him. Could it be that she, Cao Yuxi, was asked to take the initiative to confess her love?
Shui Bingyue, who had just taken a shower, put on her clothes and ran out with her hair wet. Holding the eldest brother's thigh, he asked: "Did sister Yuxi come just now? Why does she always come to see the eldest brother recently?"
"Maybe it's because I work in the county town and it's more convenient to buy things."
"Does my brother like Sister Yuxi?"
Shui Jianguo picked up his sister, found a dry towel and wiped her hair while explaining: "Bingyue, although you are young, please don't ask questions like this outside in the future. This is a very serious question, and it is not something you should care about." question."
"Okay, I understand. No matter who my brother likes, I will like her. I hope my sister-in-law will also like me very much in the future."
"Absolutely. To truly love someone is to love both the house and the womb. Who would hate you if we, Bingyue, are so cute?"
Shui Bingyue began to count on her fingers seriously: "There are so many people who hate me." Aunt Ge Yue, Feng Xiaoxiao, and Grandma Cui all don't like me. "
"How do you know they don't like you? Did they say anything unpleasant to you?" Shui Jianguo was worried.
"I just know that, they didn't say it to my face, but I heard them talking bad about me to others. They said that my father is a fool who loves me, a loser, the most."
"Don't listen to their nonsense. Boys and girls are the same. And Bingyue is so smart. She can write and do math at just over two years old, which is better than a child of seven or eight years old. Those boys can't be like you."
"What kind of partner is my brother looking for? Maybe I can help."
Seeing his sister looking up at him with her chubby little face, she thought about it seriously and replied, "I think Bai Lu is pretty good, but she's a little too pampered, a little silly, and has no heart."
Shui Bingyue secretly muttered in her heart: "It turns out that eldest brother likes to be pretty, so he is careless. Sister Bai Lu is indeed good, but she has never come to see eldest brother."
The two of them stopped talking, and Shui Jianguo helped his sister dry her hair seriously. Braid her into two little braids and tie them with red ribbons. Paired with the white lace skirt she is wearing, she looks very fashionable.
Shui Bingyue can confidently say that these seven brothers will all be very good fathers in the future. Because they were all practiced with her.
When Cao Yuxi returned to the Educated Youth Home, Bai Lu asked her with concern: "It's so hot at noon and there's no one outside. Where did you go? Don't you feel scared?"
"What's so scary in broad daylight? It's not like we're in the wilderness. Our villagers are simple and there are no bad guys."
"I just care about you. Even if there is nothing wrong with you, have you forgotten that Shui Bingyue was almost hit by a wild boar that day? I still feel scared to this day." Bai Lu said while fiddling with her long hair .
"That's just an accident. You can ask the villagers. In the village, we saw a wild boar coming down the mountain once in a few years. Don't always be afraid of the east and the west."
Bai Lu waved her hand: "I won't talk to you anymore. I want to go back and get some sleep."
Now Bailu has adapted to life here and can complete the assigned tasks. I just feel like I don’t get enough sleep every day.
She only has one goal now, that is, when Cao Yuxi can figure out how to return to the city, she will be able to return to the city and won't have to work in the fields here.
Although Bai Lu's family background is not as prominent as Cao Yuxi's, she turns out to be a doting master. Just because the current situation is special, the Bai family relies on the protection of the Cao family, and she is too beautiful, so she can only seek refuge in the countryside.
As the sun set, Shui Jianguo rode his bicycle back to the county town. Xiao Qi accompanied her sister to rest in her eldest brother's room.
Shui Bingyue asked Xiao Qi: "Brother Qi, what do you think of Brother Yucheng?"
"It's not bad. He's very hygienic, clean, and speaks kindly. He also likes to write articles. It seems that if his articles are published in newspapers, he can receive royalties."
"Then what does Seventh Brother want to do in the future?"
"I want to be a scientist."
Shui Bingyue was surprised: "But you didn't say that before. You said you wanted to be a hero."
"That's because I heard the teacher tell the story of scientists and felt that they are more powerful than those great heroes. Because of the existence of scientists, we can go to heaven and earth and understand the wider world."
The two fell asleep while chatting, and when they opened their eyes, it was the next day. After breakfast, Xiao Qi went to school honestly. Shui Bingyue was still sitting in the shade of the tree, watching everyone go to work.
Because I thought about what my elder brother said yesterday about his interest in Bai Lu, I went to the land where the educated youth worked.
Cao Yuxi was very happy to see Shui Bingyue: "Why did you come here? Does Village Chief Shui know?"
"I told dad. Besides, the distance is not far, so he can see where I am."
Bai Lu actually also likes Shui Bingyue. The little girl with fair face, fat face and big eyes looks really cute. However, she is doing farm work now and her hands are dirty.
Otherwise, she would definitely want to pinch the little girl's cheek, hug her, and kiss her.
Shui Bingyue noticed the way Bai Lu looked at her and found that it was full of love. Run to someone and activate the chatterbox mode: "Sister Bai Lu, do you like me very much?"
"Oh, how did you know?"
"You look at me with bright eyes. Sister Bai Lu, how many children are there at home?"
"I have two brothers and I'm the youngest."
"What's your favorite thing to eat, Sister Bai Lu?"
"I like eating apples, grapes, bananas, and braised pork. As long as it's delicious, I like them all. Why do you care so much about me?"
"Because you are beautiful, I like you!" Shui Bingyue lied without blinking.
