Seeing that the awkward atmosphere was broken, Cao Xi hurriedly said: "Okay, I'll just take care of you."
After saying that, he suddenly thought of something. He said, "You'll wait a minute." Then he left Li Feng and Qin Zhao alone and ran back to the house alone.
Li Feng picked up the teapot on the table and was about to refill Cao Xi's cup of tea when he was stopped by Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao: "I'll do it, after all, you are a guest."
Li Feng glanced at Qin Zhao mockingly: "You are very lucky. You are so lucky that people envy you. You are also very childish. You are so childish that people envy you."
Qin Zhao: "The opportunities are all the same, but you didn't seize them."
Li Feng was poked at a painful point, and his face darkened, "There will be opportunities."
Qin Zhao chuckled, "I didn't expect you also have an innocent side."
Li Feng clenched his fists and was about to retort when Cao Xi ran back with a box in her hand.
"This is the gift we brought you in Fucheng. Everyone has it."
"What are you doing stupidly? Come on quickly"
Li Feng didn't expect that Cao Xi could prepare a gift for him when his life or death was unknown. The box was a bit heavy, so heavy that Li Feng's heart dropped and hurt.
Li Feng gently opened the lid of the box, and what he saw were six exquisite little dolls.
"Do you like it? This is you." Cao Xi pointed to one of the clay dolls wearing a long gown and a gold jade hairpin.
Li Feng picked up the clay doll and found that it looked somewhat similar. He put it down and looked around inside the gift box.
"Why not without you?"
Cao Xi explained awkwardly, "I was in a hurry and didn't do everything. I will definitely make up for it next time."
Li Feng: "I like it very much, but I feel a little regretful without you."
Li Feng didn't seem to notice that Qin Zhao was missing from the box. He put the clay dolls away one by one and glanced at Qin Zhao before closing the box. It was just as he thought. His proud face made his hands itch.
Cao Xi and the other three arrived at the Malatang shop as promised. The shop closed a bit early today, and everyone was in the backyard preparing ingredients for tonight's dinner.
The three of them joined in the cooking process as soon as they arrived, and soon the table was filled with food.
The eight people gathered in a circle and talked and laughed just like they did in the Earth Temple. Qin Zhao gave Cao Xi the chicken legs on the plate, but Da Zhuang made fun of him.
"When we were having dinner together when we were young, you always grabbed chicken drumsticks for Cao Xi. At that time, I thought you were a good brother who cared for my sister. Now it seems that you cared for my wife." The whole table laughed.
Qin Zhao blushed in embarrassment and said forcefully, "I feel sorry for my wife. What do you, a bachelor, know?"
"Who said I don't have a wife? My brother and I are going to get married by the end of the year." Da Zhuang looked at Qin Zhao proudly, showing off in a tone that was not shy at all.
Cao Xi looked at Da Zhuang and then turned to Dayong, "Have you finished buying your house?"
Dayong: "Well, we have finished buying it. It is a village outside the city. The family was in a hurry for money, so we happened to meet it and bought it."
Xiaochuan envied and said, "Zhuangzi, isn't that big?"
Dayong laughed when asked, "Well, it's quite big. You can go to my place next time we have dinner."
Xiaochuan: "Okay then, let's go see your new village."
Da Zhuang and Da Yong have been living in the Tutu Temple for these years. In order to make money, they worked hard from dawn to dusk to burn charcoal. From novice to successful, they experienced countless failures in the process before they achieved what they have today. Now that they have their own Zhuangzi, everyone has their own village. Be happy for them.
Dayong asked Cao Xi, "When will you get married?"
In one sentence, everyone looked at Cao Xi. Qin Zhao clenched the cup in his hand and looked at Cao Xi with a straight look. His heart beat faster, and he was more nervous than waiting for the results to be released.
Cao Xi glanced at Qin Zhao, smiled and said to everyone, "The specific time has not been decided yet, but I will inform everyone before the wedding."
Hearing what Cao Xi said, Qin Zhao, who was in a nervous mood, suddenly felt a little depressed. He picked up the wine glass to cover up his gaffe. But before the wine reached his mouth, a soft questioning voice came from his ears.
“How long does it take you to decorate your wedding room?”
The soft voice instantly exploded Qin Zhao's heart, and his brain went blank with joy.
He looked at Cao Xi stupidly, everything around him seemed to have disappeared, and she was the only one left in front of him.
If he wanted to answer, he couldn't say it. After holding it in for a long time, he finally said "one day" with an abrupt voice. Everyone looked at him.
Cao Xi didn't expect him to say so loudly, "Ahem, it's okay, let's continue." He glared at Qin Zhao again before giving up.
Everyone was happy today and drank a lot of wine, but no one expected that Li Feng would be the drunk one.
Li Feng never expected that the first news he got after returning was that Qin Zhao and Cao Xi were getting married.
He felt uncomfortable. He was like an outsider in the whole party. He could not participate and did not want to congratulate the newlyweds.
I can only drink one cup after another until I drink myself on the table.
"The buffalo helped Brother Li into the house. I think it's getting late. Let's go back to our homes and get together if we have the chance." Cao Xi saw that it was almost time and suggested that everyone disperse.
The evening breeze blew gently, and Qin Zhao led Cao Xi back. The two of them were silent all the way, until Qin Zhao grabbed Cao Xi before returning to the bedroom.
“I can prepare the wedding room in one day”
His eyes were so hot that they seemed to burn Cao Xi's heart. She unconsciously reached out and touched Qin Zhao's cheek.
"I believe it." After saying that, he stood up on his tiptoes and kissed Qin Zhao's lips gently.
Before he could evacuate, a force was pulled from his waist into Qin Zhao's arms.
Qin Zhao's voice was hoarse and his Adam's apple rolled, "Kiss me."
"How do I kiss you?"
Cao Xi smiled evilly, put his hands on Qin Zhao's shoulders, stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of his lips again.
Qin Zhao said blankly: "We haven't gotten married yet."
Before Qin Zhao could finish speaking, Cao Xi kissed the other corner of his mouth with provocative eyes.
"So that?"
Qin Zhao, why are you such a stinking hooligan? Qin Zhao moves before his brain. Wow, lower your head hard...
When everything calmed down, Qin Zhao gasped against Cao Xi's forehead. Looking at the red and swollen lips kissed by him, he suddenly felt regretful. He gently touched her, "Does it hurt?"
Cao Xi was a little shy at first, lowering his head and not daring to look at Qin Zhao. When he was asked this question, he felt a slight sting on his lips.
She wanted to raise her head to scold Qin Zhao, but when she raised her eyes, she fell into his dark eyes full of love.
Qin Zhao was pleased by her obsessed expression. He kissed Cao Xi's lips again like a dragonfly, and finally woke her up.
Seeing the smiling Qin Zhao, Cao Xi got angry and kicked him.
"You have changed. You are no longer my Qin Zhao." After saying this, he hid in the bedroom like a gust of wind and threw himself on the bed.
Look at her like a frightened rabbit, hiding in the bedroom and not daring to come out.
Qin Zhao let out a low laugh and gently wiped his lips with his hand. The kiss felt so good.
This night was destined to not be a peaceful one. Cao Xi hid in the room, laughing so hard that honey would flow from his face, and then beating the bed board in anger.
Qin Zhao was lying on the bed, holding two small clay figurines, opening and closing them and started kissing them.
...
In the early morning, when Cao Xi came out, Qin Zhao was already dressed neatly. She couldn't help but curiously asked, "Are you dressed so neatly to go out?"
"I'm going to prepare the wedding supplies." Qin Zhao put breakfast on the table, "You eat first."
Cao Xi: "It's too early. The shops are not open yet. Where are you going to buy them?"
Qin Zhao: "I'll go find Qi Qige to find a solution." After saying that, he walked out of the courtyard with a face full of joy.
Cao Xi:......
