When the two were on their way back, they met Lin Luoluo with two children on another road, and a nanny was helping to take care of the children.
Probably not expecting to be bumped into by Su Yi, Lin Luoluo's eyes flickered with embarrassment, "I, I went back to get my phone, I thought you guys were going this way..."
She was not the type to lie, and her face turned red before she could finish her words.
Fortunately, the two children helped her out unintentionally. Su Li'an ran towards Su Yi with a red face, "Mom, where did you and Uncle Sheng go? Why didn't you wait for me?"
Su Yi tapped his forehead and said, "I waited. Maybe you are too short and your legs are too short, so you can't catch up with us."
"I will grow up soon!" Su Li'an covered his forehead and jumped up and down. He raised his arms as high as he could and compared to what he thought was a very high height. "Next year I will be taller than my mother... no, taller than Uncle Sheng!"
"Oh," Su Yi said with a smile, "You have lofty ambitions. Go back and dream. Maybe it will come true in your dreams."
The child didn't realize that she was speaking in a sarcastic way, and thought that she agreed with what he said, so he raised his little head and walked away happily.
Several adults held back their laughter and shook their heads.
At night, after coaxing the child to sleep, Sui returned to her room. Not feeling sleepy for a moment, she put on her pajamas and went to the balcony to look at the night view.
The Sheng family's old house is halfway up the mountain. A road is built from the foot of the mountain to the doorstep. When the street lights are on at night, the winding mountain road looks like a fire dragon, and this house is the dragon ball being chased by the fire dragon.
Looking out from the mountain, you can see the brightly lit city, prosperous and noisy, which is in sharp contrast to the tranquility and quietness here.
The night breeze was cool and refreshing, sweeping away the heat of the day. Su Yi leaned on the railing, looked up at the night sky for a while, and suddenly heard a sound from the next room.
That was Lin Luoluo's room. Thinking she needed help, Su Yi listened carefully and realized that it was Lin Luoluo who was talking to Sheng Yanchuan on the phone.
She had no intention of listening to other people's private conversations and was about to go back to her room, but she heard her own name and stopped in her tracks.
"… My uncle really likes Su Yi. Even my aunt knows it. She even told me privately that if there is a chance, I should get a feel from Su Yi to see if she has the same feelings for my uncle."
As they were talking, Lin Luoluo also walked to the balcony. Because there was no light where Su Yi was, the other party did not notice her.
At this time, Su Yi couldn't go out anymore, otherwise both of them would be embarrassed. She didn't dare to scare a pregnant woman, so she could only stay in the dark and was forced to stop their conversation.
With her hearing ability, she could even hear Sheng Yanchuan's voice in the microphone.
Sheng Yanchuan's tone sounded a little stiff: "This is the elders' business, we should not interfere."
Lin Luoluo said in embarrassment: "But my aunt has mentioned it to me, I can't let her down, right? And no matter what, compared to others, Su Yi is relatively close to us. My aunt probably thinks so too, so she wants me to be the middleman."
"She and my uncle are not a good match." Sheng Yanchuan said bluntly.
"My uncle has agreed, so why do you need to tell me whether we are a good match or not?" Lin Luoluo asked back.
Sheng Yanchuan was speechless for a moment, and Lin Luoluo said, "Don't always look at people with old eyes. Su Yi has really changed a lot. Now she has a good temper, is cheerful, and looks pretty. I think she and little uncle are a good match."
Sheng Yanchuan was silent for a while, then asked, "Do you think she likes little uncle too? Don't get me wrong, or you'll be happy for nothing."
Lin Luoluo put her fingers on the railing and said, "I can't say it's 100%, but I definitely have a crush on him. Otherwise, do you think girls are idle and willing to go on everyone's dates? If it's someone you don't like, you'd feel annoyed even if you look at him/her more than once, let alone move in here and take a walk with him/her every day."
"So I should feel honored that you accepted my invitation?"
Lin Luoluo laughed, her tone cheerful: "Of course, do you know how troublesome it is for a girl to go out? She has to wash her hair, put on makeup, match clothes, blow-dry her hair, and spend a lot of time worrying about what shoes to wear. Those cosmetics are not cheap at all. Everything you put on your face costs money. If you don't like someone, you won't bother to waste money and time on him."
What followed were private conversations between husband and wife, and Su Yi automatically blocked them out.
She was a little surprised. Lin Luoluo usually looked gentle and shy, but unexpectedly she was quite playful in front of Sheng Yanchuan. Could it be because the other party was the 'person she liked'
She couldn't help but think of Lin Luoluo's previous remarks about affection. If it were someone else, would she accept the other party's invitation and go for a walk with him
In her mind, she replaced Sheng Yunzhou with Xu Haicheng, imagined the scene where he asked her out and even wanted to have dinner with her, and then she found herself rolling her eyes.
So the big devil fell silent.
The next morning, Su Yi woke up not too early. When she went downstairs, except Ms. Xu, several people were there. Even Sheng Yunzhou was sitting on the sofa, with two children surrounding him, not knowing what they were talking about.
Seeing Su Yi, Su Li'an said excitedly: "Mom, Uncle Sheng said there is a small farm behind the mountain, shall we go and have a look later?"
The Sheng family has a small farm on the other side of the mountain. They not only grow a variety of vegetables, but also free-range chickens and ducks, and raise fish and shrimp in a small pond.
The two children got up early in the morning and happened to meet someone who delivered vegetables to the old house. The two little guys chased the person and asked questions for a long time. One question was how the vegetables grew, one was asking if there were little green worms on the leaves, and one was curious about how many kinds of vegetables there were in the world. They asked questions to the person who delivered the vegetables and made him sweat.
When Sheng Yunzhou woke up and heard about this, he agreed to take them out to play.
Su Yi looked at the sun outside and said, "It's so hot, can you bear it?"
"It's okay," Sheng Hengrong patted his chest, "The teacher said I'm very strong and I'm not afraid of the sun!"
Su Li'an thought for a moment and said, "I can wear a little yellow hat, so I won't be exposed to the sun."
It was obvious that they were really looking forward to it, so Su Yi stopped being a bad person. After breakfast, she and Sheng Yunzhou took the two children out.
Lin Luoluo was pregnant and afraid of the heat, so she didn't go with them.
A few people did not take a car, but walked to the back of the mountain. Sheng Yunzhou originally said it was a small farm, but when they got there and took a look, they found that it was not small at all.
An entire mountain is covered with terraces planted with all kinds of vegetables and fruit trees, and chickens and ducks are running freely in the fields. There is a large pond near the foot of the mountain where the slope is gentle. The spring water flowing from the top of the mountain flows directly into the pond, bringing fresh vitality to the fish and shrimp in the pond.
There were several houses beside the pond. When they walked over, several farm women were packing boxes and labeling vegetables, which would soon be sent to the green organic food shelves in the supermarket.
According to Sheng Yunzhou's introduction, originally this farm was not big, and indeed only supplied the Sheng family. But later on, the number of varieties planted increased gradually, while the number of products produced by the Sheng family became less and less, and they could not be consumed all, which was a waste, so they were sent to the market. Over the years, it has become a well-known brand. Every time it is put on the shelves, it always attracts consumers to buy it because of the small quantity. This is really an unintentional success.
As soon as the two children arrived at the field, they ran away happily. At this time, they were playfully chasing a big white duck, which scared the duck so much that it fled in panic, its outstretched wings raising dust all over the ground.
Sue looked at the duck's bulging belly and shouted to the two children, "That's a duck that's about to lay eggs. Don't scare away its eggs!"
As soon as the words came out, the children stopped and looked at each other. I don't know what they said, but they tiptoed closer to the duck and said carefully and flatteringly: "Duck, duck, show us your eggs."
The big white duck ran faster.
Su Yi was speechless. For the first time, she wondered if these two kids were too happy. How could they become the hero and villain in the original novel? Was this really a silly story
Sheng Yunzhou stood aside, watching the interaction between Su Yi and the two children with a smile in his eyes.
Su Yi wiped the sweat off her face and tilted her head to look at him, "Aren't you hot?"
Sheng Yunzhou handed her the handkerchief and said, "I'm fine. Do you want to go inside and rest?"
"The sun is too strong." Su Yi looked at the sky again and said, "We should have given them some mung bean soup to prevent them from getting a heat stroke."
"I have it at home. I'll ask someone to bring it over." Sheng Yunzhou said as he reached for his cell phone. He felt around for a while and realized he didn't have it with him. When he wasn't working, he usually didn't keep his cell phone with him.
Seeing this, Su Yi spread his hands and said, "I decided to go out at the last minute, so I didn't bring anything with me."
The two looked around. The peasant women had just finished their work and were walking down the mountain. They looked back at them curiously as they walked. The farm manager was catching up on his sleep after delivering the vegetables early in the morning, so he did not wake him up when they arrived.
After looking around, his sight finally fell on the pickup truck that was delivering the food. Sheng Yunzhou walked closer and saw that the key was still in the car. He turned back and said to Su Yi, "I'll drive this car back to get it."
Sue looked at him, then at the pickup truck covered in dust and with vegetable leaves on the back, and said doubtfully, "Can you drive?"
Sheng Yunzhou smiled, opened the car door and sat in. After a few familiarization steps, he stepped on the accelerator, turned the steering wheel, and the car rushed out, leaving behind a cloud of dust.
He looks quite gentle, but drives quite wildly.
"Did you turn a pickup truck into a Hummer?" Su Yi couldn't help but complain.
Seeing the car turn a corner and disappear behind the cliff, she called back the two running children and asked them to sit quietly in the shade of the tree for a while, waiting to drink the mung bean soup.
On the other side, the Sheng family gatekeeper was surprised to see the farm car. It had just come here in the morning, so why is it here again now
He opened the window and shouted, "Lao Cai, why are you here again?"
Sheng Yunzhou rolled down the car window manually, revealing a face with messy hair caused by the mountain wind, and said to the stunned gatekeeper, "Uncle Li, it's me."
Uncle Li opened the door in a daze, watching the broken pickup truck rush into the yard. Their Third Master, wearing his expensive clothes, jumped out of the pickup truck that was not even worth one of his shoes, with his hair messy like a young boy, shocking everyone along the way.
The author has something to say: Hmm... wild old boy
