Since the winter solstice, Wen Qing has become closer to Xu Niansheng. She gave a pair of rabbit fur gloves for nothing, and a pair of socks every two days, but she also gave everyone a gift. Xu Niansheng couldn't find an excuse to refuse.
Moreover, she clearly treats everyone equally, but he always feels that Wen Qing treats him differently. He couldn't tell exactly what was different, but after thinking about it a lot, he felt that something was wrong in his heart
Fortunately, he was good at covering up, and others didn't see his abnormality, but his unnaturalness could not escape Wen Qing's eyes. Wen Qing was very happy in his heart, he did not expect this innocent old man to be so flirtatious.
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the new year, and the snow had already closed the mountains, and Wen Qing had no chance to go to the city to buy new year's goods. Fortunately, there was a lot of food stored before, so he could have a prosperous new year.
On New Year's Eve, Wen Qing started to work early in the morning, and Xu Niansheng and others also came to help. This time, no one said anything about eating separately. The Chinese New Year is naturally going to be lively.
Wen Qing made the noodles, Xu Niansheng chopped the stuffing, and after they were done, a group of people gathered together to make dumplings. There was never a happier time of the year than now.
After making the dumplings and putting them aside, Wen Qing started cooking meat and croquettes again. This is the only time in a year, and of course it is as rich as possible. Wang Dachuan waited eagerly for the meatballs to come out of the pot. Although his family can eat a full meal now, he still has an inexplicable attachment to food, especially the taste of croquettes, which is so delicious that he can't control it at all. Can't live.
Even Xu Jinyan was looking forward to it, and looked this way from time to time, showing a little childishness rarely. After Wen Qing served a pot, he first filled a bowl for them and asked them to take it to the main room to eat with Grandpa Xu and Grandpa He. Da Chuan happily agreed, holding the bowl in one hand, dragging Xu Jinyan with the other, and ran out.
Wen Qing conveniently stuffed another one into Xu Niansheng's mouth, and asked him, "Is it delicious?"
Xu Niansheng's face turned red from the firelight, and he nodded indiscriminately, "It's delicious."
Wen Qing laughed, "Do you think we look like a newly married couple? I cook and you light the fire. There is a tacit understanding."
"Cough, cough, cough," Xu Niansheng was stunned by her sudden words, and coughed earth-shatteringly, his face turned red. Wen Qing hastily scooped up a ladle of water for him, and patted his back for him, and it took him a long time to recover.
Wen Qing was so frightened that he didn't dare to tease him anymore, what if he choked to death in excitement? However, the fact that he reacted so strongly proves that there are still ghosts in his heart, right? How could he be so shocked by her words
Next, Wen Qing honestly prepared the New Year's Eve dinner, Xu Niansheng helped her, and cooked six dishes in total, including braised pork, stewed pork ribs with potatoes, spicy chicken diced, hot and sour potato shreds, shredded cabbage, and served A plate of dry croquettes is made into six or six Dashun, and one person cooks a bowl of dumplings. This meal satisfied everyone, especially Xu Jianguo and the others. They hadn't eaten such a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner for several years.
After dinner, Xu Niansheng took the initiative to clean up the table. Mr. Xu and He Qiong were in good spirits, and drew a chessboard on the ground, with one holding stones and the other holding branches, and started playing chess. In this day and age, there is no entertainment during the Chinese New Year, and Wang Dachuan and Xu Jinyan have nothing to do, so they just squat to the side to watch the two elders fight, commanding blindly from time to time.
Wen Qing leaned against the door of the kitchen, watching Xu Niansheng wash up. Naturally, Xu Niansheng could feel her gaze, and suddenly felt uncomfortable. After washing quickly, he pretended to be calm and asked her, "What's wrong?"
Wen Qing raised her eyebrows and gestured to the door, "Go out for a walk?"
Xu Niansheng couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he agreed. The two chatted casually, and unknowingly walked to the back mountain. Wen Qing glanced at the surrounding environment. In front was their house, behind was the mountain, on the left was the direction of the cowshed, and on the right was a tall tree. The environment is a good place to do bad things.
Wen Qing stopped, and Xu Niansheng also noticed that there was something wrong with this place, so he said quickly, "It's so cold, let's go back?"
Wen Qing stared straight at him, making Xu Niansheng's heart shudder, and she said leisurely, "Xu Niansheng, do you really not like me?"
"Ah?" She asked so bluntly that Xu Niansheng didn't know how to answer, and after holding back for a long time, he said, "You are still young, and you don't even know what it is to marry..."
Wen Qing laughed lightly, this is not good for an innocent old man, even if he is tempted, there is a string called reason that is tense, "Forget it, whatever you say is what it is."
She changed her words suddenly, leaving Xu Niansheng at a loss for what to say again. It's just that she obviously followed his wishes, but he couldn't feel happy.
At this time, Wen Qing said suddenly again, "You said I was young, then wait until I grow up, I will go to you when I am twenty-two, if you are not married by then, we can just make do with each other. "
"Okay," Xu Niansheng said subconsciously, and then felt blushing again. He was thirty-six when she was twenty-two, right? Still ten years older than her.
However, ten years later, she will be sensible, and she will naturally understand that her current feelings for him are just a momentary obsession, and she will probably shrink back without him saying it. Thinking of this, Xu Niansheng felt a little melancholy.
"After the new year, I'm going out for a while, you help me take care of Da Chuan." Wen Qing said something again when he was in a daze, Xu Niansheng quickly regained his senses, and replied, "Okay."
He knew that Wen Qing often went to the city to make some private deals, so he thought she was the same this time, so he didn't think much about it.
Wen Qing smiled, and suddenly opened her arms to hug Xu Niansheng again, resting her chin on his chest, looking up at him with her fair face. Xu Niansheng could clearly see the brilliance in her black and white eyes in the snowy sky, she said, "Xu Niansheng, wait for me."
This year, Wang Dachuan lived very happily. Not only did he have delicious food every day, but his sister also made him a warm new suit. The size was just right, not short or patched. The well-fitting clothes made him so happy that he didn't want to take them off when he went to sleep.
Jinyan also has a suit, but not as good-looking as him! Thinking this way, Wang Dachuan put on his new clothes neatly. Today is the sixteenth day of the first lunar month. After the new year is over, he will wear it for another day, and he will not wear it tomorrow.
After getting up, Wang Dachuan yelled twice, but ran into the kitchen without hearing his sister's answer. The leftover glutinous rice balls cooked yesterday were warmed in the pot. Wang Dachuan knew that his sister left them for him, so he filled out a bowl, and after he was full, he still didn't see his sister coming back. He patted his forehead, and suddenly remembered that his sister said a few days ago that he was going out for a trip. Could it be that he went to the city today
He went to the cowshed to check again, but there was no one there. Xu Niansheng also said that his sister said that she would go out for a trip, so Wang Dachuan waited for his sister to come back at night with peace of mind.
After waiting, no one came back until midnight. Wang Dachuan was in a hurry. The snow on the mountain had not yet melted. He was afraid that something happened to his sister, so he hurriedly asked Xu's family to look for it together.
As a result, several people searched back and forth in the mountains several times, but they found the city, but they did not find Jianwenqing. A big living person disappeared out of thin air!
Wang Dachuan was in a hurry, and Xu Niansheng was also in a hurry. He knew better than Wang Dachuan what kind of danger a beautiful little girl would encounter. If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have let her enter the city!
After searching for more than a month, several people were in a hurry, but they couldn't find anyone from Wen Qing! In the end, Wang Dachuan suddenly remembered what his sister said to him during the Chinese New Year, "Dachuan, if my sister disappears one day, you don't need to look for it, just remember that my sister will definitely come back."
Wang Dachuan told Xu Niansheng this, and Xu Niansheng immediately understood that Wen Qing's disappearance was premeditated.
It was indeed premeditated, Wen Qing didn't plan to stay in this village from the very beginning, if it wasn't for Da Chuan, she would have run away as soon as she got dressed. There are still five years until the end of this turbulent era, and she doesn't want to stay in the village farming all the time, that kind of life is meaningless to her.
Even if you can rely on Taobao to not worry about food or drink, and wait for the turmoil to end safely, and then follow the trend of the generation, go into business, earn a little money, and become a trendy person in the eyes of others, so what
She has always believed that with great ability comes great responsibility. She cannot change the world, but she can do something for this country to the best of her ability.
This is the worst era, but also the best era. After the turmoil, this country will usher in a magnificent new era! Her eyes were never on this small mountain village, but on the whole world.
So, while Wang Dachuan was crying with the bag of money and bills left by his sister, Wen Qing had already traveled across the ocean and appeared on the streets of the United States, took a few gold bars to the black market to exchange start-up funds, and into the New York Stock Exchange.
