"Yes! Anyway, I have nothing to do and nowhere to go during the Chinese New Year. Why don't I sit at your house for a while? Comrade Xue won't drive me away?" Tang Wan blinked at Xue Xingtong.
Hearing this, Xue Xingtong felt relieved, and immediately said: "Of course not, you sit down first, there are apples in the basket, they have been washed, you take them yourself, you are welcome."
Tang Wan smiled and nodded.
After Xue Xingtong left, he scanned the hall.
The Xue family was almost impoverished by the naked eye, except for tables and chairs, there was nothing better to see in the main room.
However, the ground was cleaned very clean and things were neatly arranged.
What she didn't know was that Xue Xingtong brought the dumpling bowl she had just eaten into the kitchen, picked it up like a thief, and then quickly licked the mouth of the dumpling soup bowl she had just eaten.
It seems that there is a sweet taste.
Narrowing his eyes slightly, the next moment, Xue Xingtong immediately put down the bowl in his hand, cleaned it quickly in the pot, and then put the bowl in the innermost part of the stove.
From now on, this will be his exclusive job!
…
Fearing that Tang Wan would get impatient and want to leave after waiting for a long time, Xue Xingtong wiped his hands after washing the dishes, and then returned to the main room with the kitchen knife.
Seeing him coming in with a knife, Tang Wan froze for a moment.
The next moment, Xue Xingtong walked silently to the basket containing several apples, picked up an apple, and sat on a stool to peel it.
After peeling a long piece of skin, he handed the apple to Tang Wan, "Eat it."
Tang Wan took it with a smile and took a bite, "It's very sweet."
"Well, sit down, I'll start a fire." Xue Xingtong nodded, and then took out the apple peel and kitchen knife.
After going out the door, he waved to the two children, split the apple peel into two, and handed it to them.
"Thank you, brother!" The two children said immediately.
"There are guests at home, you all should be quiet and go to the door to play." At this moment, Xue Xingtong said to the two of them.
The two children nodded obediently immediately.
They didn't know that in order to create a chance for themselves to be alone with Tang Wan, the tall and stalwart elder brother in their hearts ruthlessly abandoned them.
…
After explaining to the two children, Xue Xingtong returned to the kitchen and brought out a black iron basin, quickly ignited the dry firewood, and brought it into the main room.
"Tang Zhiqing, come over and enjoy the fire." Xue Xingtong said.
"Yeah!" Tang Wan moved over.
After a while, Xue Xingtong also pulled a stool over and sat down opposite her.
Then, the two fell into a state of silence for each other again.
But soon this silent atmosphere was broken by Tang Wan.
"Comrade Xue, what kind of girl do you like?" Tang Wan asked suddenly.
Hearing this, Xue Xingtong was taken aback for a moment, then looked at her through the distorted air steamed by the flames, "I never thought about it."
But he replied silently in his heart: It is good that you are like this, gentle and beautiful, pure and kind.
…
"Haven't thought about it?" Tang Wan looked at her in surprise.
"Well, for a person like me, no girl is willing to marry me, so there is no need to think about this problem." Xue Xingtong laughed at himself.
Tang Wan stopped gnawing on the apple after hearing this, and then looked at him seriously: "Why? I think Comrade Xue is very good! Mature, steady, responsible, capable, emmmm... also very virtuous and family-friendly, and very good-looking Handsome! I want to marry someone like you, Comrade Xue."
Xue Xingtong immediately looked at her with astonishment, his heart beating like a drum, what did she mean by that
Is... is that what he thought
But soon, Xue Xingtong punctured his unrealistic fantasy.
Ah!
how is this possible
