"Stop talking about noodle soup!" Zhong Mingwei was about to speak when A Chou cut him off, and A Chou said fiercely. "I've been eating gnocchi soup for three days straight! If you say you want to eat gnocchi soup again, I'll... just beat you!"
Zhong Mingwei rubbed his nose embarrassingly, and discussed with Ah Chou pitifully: "Then can you hit me lightly? I'm afraid of pain."
Ah Chou's lips twitched: "..."
Ok. Then have another meal of gnocchi soup.
The first day of August in the thirty-second year of Jiasheng
Ning Guta.
After having breakfast with Zhong Mingwei, Ah Chou took the embroidered pieces down the mountain to find Grandma Chen.
When I arrived at Jixian Bookstore. A Chou found that this year's Extreme Bookstore was very lively. There were a lot of people coming in and out, Ah Chou was very puzzled when he saw the few middle-aged men coming in and out. Is the house here to be repaired? Why are these men holding shovels or picks in their hands
"Girl, are you here?" Chen Qingxuan watched Ah Chou come in, and greeted him with a smile.
"Yeah. I'm here to find grandma." Ah Chou shook the small bundle in his hand in a hurry, and explained to Chen Qingxuan, "Mr. Chen, I finished the embroidery. I'll bring it to grandma. Why grandma?" not here?"
"It's inconvenient to live in a house under construction here. I'll let grandma go back to live in the village first," Chen Qingxuan nodded. He said to Ah Chou, while looking at the bundle in A Chou's hand, he said, "Why don't you give me the embroidery piece. I will give it to grandma with my own hands."
"That's fine, thank you, Mr. Chen," Ah Chou thanked, while looking at the men coming in and out, paused, and then asked Chen Qingxuan, "Mr. Chen, I see that your house is in good condition, why? Want to fix it?"
Chen Qingxuan said with a smile: "There is no major problem, but there is a crack in the kang at home. Before it is cold, I quickly repaired the kang."
"They build a kang?" Ah Chou's eyes lit up immediately, "Mr. Chen, I'm just looking for someone to build a kang, can you tell them to build a kang for me when your kang is repaired?" .”
"There's nothing wrong with that." Chen Qingxuan nodded, and called a middle-aged man, "Uncle Chen, my neighbor here wants to build a kang. When do you think it's convenient to build a kang?"
The middle-aged man put the shovel aside, rubbed the mud on his hands, looked at Ah Chou, and asked Chen Qingxuan, "Is this little girl's home? How far away? Are you in a hurry?"
"It's not far, it's just on the mountainside, and it's only two miles away from here," Ah Chou pointed to the mountainside and said to the middle-aged man, "Don't worry, you can go to our house after you finish Mr. Chen's house first. Just build a kang and it will be done.”
The middle-aged man nodded: "Okay, then the day after tomorrow, I'll take someone there."
"Then Uncle Chen, let's make an agreement. I'll wait for you at home the day after tomorrow." Ah Chou hurriedly nodded in agreement, and said to Chen Qingxuan, "Thank you very much, Mr. Chen, then I'll be leaving now."
"Okay, let's go." Chen Qingxuan said.
"Mr. Chen, that..." Ah Chou just turned around and stood still. She glanced at Chen Qingxuan's study, looking hesitant to speak.
"What's the matter? Is there something else?" Chen Qingxuan couldn't help curling his lips when he looked at her dark eyes.
For some reason, he felt that this girl had become more attractive. She used to be unkempt, but today her hair was neatly combed and tied into a neat ponytail. As a result, the dark red hair on her neck The scar was already obvious, but the scar didn't look so ugly, especially when the girl was still looking at him with those clear, deer-like eyes.
"No, it's nothing, Mr. Chen, I'm leaving!" Ah Chou shook his head, turned around and went down the steps in a hurry.
"This girl!" Chen Qingxuan shook his head with a smile, and at the same time called out to Uncle Chen, "Uncle Chen, how much money does it cost to build a kang?"
"At least one tael." Uncle Chen looked at Ah Chou's fading figure, and smiled at Chen Qingxuan, "If it wasn't for your neighbor, he would have paid one tael or five dollars anyway, just because of your face. for so little."
