Chen Xu felt his nose itchy, so he woke up, opened his eyes, and saw Yang Jinxia laying on his chest, holding a lock of hair, teasing his nose.
Seeing him wake up, she let go of her hand and said with a smile, "Are you awake?"
That smiling face made Chen Xu lose his mind.
He reached out and rubbed his itchy nose to relieve the embarrassment. Soon, what happened last night resurfaced in my mind.
His eyes softened and he asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"
"not good at all."
Yang Jinxia's face was serious, and he said, "You actually just hugged me and slept all night like this, don't tell me I'm not attractive to you at all?"
Chen Xu felt that his nose was itchy again, so he resisted rubbing his nose, and said with embarrassment, "My grandma sleeps next door."
"Is there anything she hasn't seen?" Yang Jinxia snorted and sat up, "It's all an excuse."
Chen Xu also wanted to sit up, but when he moved, he realized that his right hand had completely lost feeling and could not be controlled at all.
Last night, he held her in his right hand and was pressed all night, so it's no wonder that she didn't feel numb.
"What's the matter?" Yang Jinxia got out of bed, found a rubber band, tied up his hair, turned around, saw him turned sideways, and was pinching his right arm, and asked.
Chen Xu resisted the tingling feeling and said, "It's numb."
"It deserves it."
As she said that, she climbed up again, and gently pinched the muscles of his arm. Seeing his frowning from time to time, it was obviously uncomfortable. He couldn't help saying, "Don't you know how to pull your hand out?"
Chen Xu smiled, but did not speak.
"Oh, you really don't understand a little bit of fun." She sighed, "Can't you say something nice to me, you are obviously afraid of waking me up."
Chen Xu slowly withdrew his hand back, Yang Jinxia was slightly taken aback, and heard him say in a low tone, "In what capacity do you want me to stay by your side all the time?"
Her eyes changed from surprise to calm, and she looked at him.
In the silence for a while, the atmosphere gradually became stiff.
Finally, Yang Jinxia moved his mouth and spoke, "You..."
thump thump...
A knock on the door interrupted her. Grandma's voice came in, "Xiao Xu, come out for breakfast."
In an instant, the tense atmosphere was interrupted.
Chen Xu felt a sense of relief, and then found that Yang Jinxia's expression had also obviously relaxed, and he didn't know what it was like, so he replied, "Here we come."
After going downstairs, the two tacitly did not mention what happened just now.
Grandma prepared new toothbrushes and towels for them, because there are no small shops in the village now, and it is very inconvenient to go to the town to buy things, so these daily necessities are kept all year round. Somebody can use it when they get home.
Chen Xu took the toothbrush and towel washbasin and went outside to wash, leaving the bathroom to Yang Jinxia.
When he came back from the shower, the bathroom door was still closed. It always takes a little longer for a woman to wash.
When he returned to the living room, he saw the ambiguous smile on Auntie San's face, knowing that he would not be able to wash it off even if he jumped into the river this time, so he just pretended not to see it.
At this time, the sky was already bright, and the time was half past six.
This time, for the first time, his biological clock failed and he overslept.
After a while, Yang Jinxia finished washing, and when he came over, he had already changed his clothes, and greeted him first when he entered the door, "Morning, grandma, morning, third aunt."
"Morning. Come, sit down and have breakfast." Grandma greeted her with a smile.
For breakfast, I ate porridge, fried vegetables, eggs, a bowl of pickles and a plate of salted and crispy peanuts.
While eating, Chen Xu asked her, "Are you going back to the company today?"
"No, I asked for leave just now." Yang Jinxia said, "It's rare to come here, I want to play here for a day."
"Well, after dinner, I'll take you to the town for a stroll." Chen Xu still remembered how interested she was in the lively market yesterday.
"OK."
After breakfast, Chen Xu drove her out. Before leaving, the third aunt asked him to buy some food, and he agreed without hesitation.
This town is bigger than Liu Xiaoshang's. In fact, when Chen Xu was in elementary school, there was no concept of going to the market here. It was also at that time that young people here flocked to big cities to earn money.
Even so, it is still a relatively lively street centered on the old supply and marketing cooperative. There are only two or three supermarkets opened. There are many more small wholesale departments.
When they arrived, the street was already very lively. There are couplets, New Year stickers, incense paper candles, and various small vendors fill the whole street.
After Chen Xu parked the car, the two walked to the street.
At the intersection, there is a stall selling pork, using a motorcycle with a wooden platform fixed on the back seat. In this way, the middle of the road was occupied.
The butcher was a middle-aged man, and his right index finger was missing. Seeing him looking over, he picked up the knife and asked, "Boss, do you want meat?"
Chen Xu shook his head decisively and continued walking forward.
After walking a certain distance, Yang Jinxia asked in a low voice, "That pork seller just now was so fierce. When you shook your head, I was afraid that he would come over with a knife."
Chen Xu couldn't help laughing, and said, "No one would do business like that. However, these people are really not easy to mess with. I heard from the villagers before that the pork sellers in the town were monopolized by more than a dozen companies. Last year there were other People from the town came to sell it, they beat them up, and things got quite big."
Yang Jinxia said, "I just feel that these people are very evil."
The two walked over one by one, and the voices of peddlers came one after another. There were kitchen knives sellers, medicinal oil sellers, electric frying pan sellers, and caterpillar fungus flower sellers.
The most lively among them is a ten-yuan shop with loudspeakers playing, "The whole audience is ten yuan, and each item is ten yuan...". That's called crowding.
Every time he passed a stall, Yang Jinxia would stop to take a look, watching the people who set up the stalls sell their products in various ways.
Chen Xu also seldom comes to the market, watching it with her, he finds it quite novel.
"Look, there is a trap game over there." Yang Jinxia seemed to have discovered a new land and ran over there.
Chen Xu followed and saw a dozen large geese lying on an open space, with their feet and wings tied up. About one meter away from them, there was a railing. In front of the railing, a young man took a small plastic ring and put it around the neck of a big goose.
He was a little surprised, he hadn't seen this kind of game for a long time. I remember when he was in middle school, he went to the place where his parents did business during the summer vacation, and went shopping at night, and he often saw this kind of hoop game.
Later, the urban management became stricter, and such games were rarely seen.
Unexpectedly, there are still people in my hometown town.
"Chen Xu, let's play too." Yang Jinxia said happily.
Chen Xu immediately went to buy ten yuan from the owner of the stall, a total of ten rings, and handed them over to her.
After the person in front used up all the hoops, she stepped forward, and the boss used a pole to hook the hoops on the ground back, while reminding her not to step over the railing, otherwise it would be invalid.
Yang Jinxia picked up a circle, pointed it at the head of the nearest goose, threw it out, and missed it.
"Oops, come again..."
After a while, all ten circles were thrown, without hitting a single one.
Chen Xu had expected it a long time ago. This distance looks quite close. In fact, it is quite difficult. Firstly, the circle is too small. Secondly, the necks of these geese are long and flexible. If something is thrown, it will subconsciously avoid it. .
"Ten more." Yang Jinxia seemed to be addicted to playing, and asked for ten more laps.
Soon, she threw out the hoops one by one, and when the last two were left, she suddenly turned around and said, "It's so difficult, why don't you try it."
"Okay." Chen Xu lifted the plastic ring, approached, and asked, "Which one do you want?"
"The white one is the most beautiful." She pointed to a goose in the middle and said.
"Okay." Chen Xu took a look, and then threw out the plastic ring in his hand. Seeing that it was about to slip into its head, its neck flinched and avoided it.
Yang Jinxia pulled his arm hard and shouted, "Oh, what a pity."
"Come again." Chen Xu observed for a while, then he threw the circle out suddenly, brought a little spin, and the speed was a little faster. The big white goose didn't react this time, its head was caught.
"I hit it." Yang Jinxia cheered.
The audience next to him also applauded.
Under the expressionless eyes of the peddler boss, Chen Xu took the goose away and said to Yang Jinxia, "When you get back, ask grandma to stew it."
