Chapter 12

Lu Che turned his head, only to find that his hand had grabbed Jiang Yao's.

It was already completely dark, and only a kerosene lamp in the corner of the huge yard flickered on and off in the breeze.

Their eyes were facing each other, and no one could see the other's expression clearly.

Lu Che was the first to let go of Jiang Yao's hand, muttered "I didn't mean it", grabbed the bamboo piece, turned around, and continued to tap "dong dong dong".

The "dong dong" sound woke the stunned Jiang Yao. The first thing she felt when she regained her senses was that her hand was very hot. It seemed that it was not a human hand that grabbed her hand just now, but a piece of charcoal. , and even her heart was burned.

Didn't you just accidentally touch your hand? Jiang Yao, your mental age is already 30 years old. Even if you have never been in a relationship, you are not someone who has never seen a big scene. As for an 18-year-old innocent little sister?

"You go back first." After Lu Che knocked on a piece of bamboo, he didn't dare to call her to hand it over this time.

He lowered his head and kept his eyes on the pile of bamboo pieces. After taking the bamboo pieces, he turned around without looking at Jiang Yao.

I don't know if it was his own delusion, Jiang Yao felt that he didn't disdain to look at her but didn't dare to look at her. Big Brother Lu seemed to be... shy.

Oh my god... the big guy is even more innocent than her, it's really cute.

"I'm not going back, just let me take whatever you want." Since the boss was purer than her, Jiang Yao suddenly felt that her waist was straight, so she directly moved the ingredients to the front and right side of him, so that it was convenient to hand it to him.

Seeing that she was going to the end, Lu Che ignored it and continued to work seriously.

The chicken coop is not big, and it is only half the height of a person. Lu Che works neatly, and the chicken coop is ready in half an hour.

"Okay, bring the chicken coop and I'll put the chicken in." Lu Che said to Jiang Yao.

"Okay." Jiang Yao took the lead, but just as he was about to stand up, he was about to fall down.

Lu Che's eyes were quick and he reached out to pick her up.

Jiang Yao was shaky, trying to find something to hug, Lu Che just came close, and the two finally hugged each other.

The weather was already hot, and the two hugged together as if they were hugging the stove.

Lu Che was the first to react, and the conditioned reflex pushed Jiang Yao outward.

Jiang Yao's feet were numb from the beginning, but now she was caught off guard and was pushed, and suddenly fell to the ground.

"Are you all right?" Lu Che asked anxiously.

Originally, with the hug just now, Jiang Yao still had some inexplicable feelings in her heart, but now that he pushed him ruthlessly, everything disappeared without a trace.

"I'm fine." When she fell on the mud, Jiang Yao really didn't feel any pain. She pressed her numb legs and said, "It's just that her legs are numb."

"My legs are numb? I'll come..." Lu Che usually massages old Mrs. Lu, and was about to step forward to help, when he saw the thin ankles exposed at the legs of her trousers, he swallowed the words instantly, changed his face, and said, "You Give yourself a massage and you'll be fine soon."

After he finished speaking, he directly carried the chicken coop and put the four chickens in it into the chicken coop. When he put some water in a small bowl and put it in the corner of the chicken ring, Jiang Yao finally stood up.

"If you're okay, go back to your room." After Lu Che finished speaking, he turned around, but Jiang Yao stopped him, "Wait, I have something for you."

With that said, Jiang Yao walked into the kitchen quickly, and when she came out, she had a bowl in her hand, which contained a hard-boiled egg.

"Take it." Because the egg had been boiled on low heat and was still very hot, she shoved it into his palm like a hot potato.

The egg in his palm was extremely hot, but Lu Che didn't throw it away, because the calluses in his palm were thick and not afraid of being hot. He just frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

"What can I do? Of course I thank you for your help! I know that you don't leave your name for doing good deeds like Lei Feng. This egg is a trivial thing. You take it as a supper tonight." Jiang Yao added, worried that he would refuse, after finishing speaking "No, no."

She stared at her eyes at the moment, pretending to be fierce, but her voice was not loud and soft. Not like a threat, but more like a spoiled brat.

Lu Che looked at her slightly bulging cheeks, suddenly unable to say what she refused.

"Uncle, uncle, have you finished making the chicken coop? Give me a bath when you're done!" Zhou Yang's shout came from the front room, and Jiang Yao followed the trend: "Hurry up and bathe Yang Yang, I want to take a bath too! already."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Yao walked back to her room quickly and closed the door.

It wasn't until the sound of footsteps sounded outside, getting closer and farther, that she bent her lips with confidence.

It's really hard to give the boss an egg.

When Lu Che went to the bathroom, Zhou Yang was already sitting in the bathtub.

The little guy didn't let Lu Qing bathe him since the beginning of the year, saying that his mother was a girl and he was a boy, so he couldn't bathe him, so this task fell to Lu Che.

In addition, he has to sleep by himself now. Fortunately, there are many rooms in the Lu family, so he can sleep as he likes.

Lu Che walked over, squatted down, picked up the towel and started wiping Zhou Yang's back.

"Uncle, when will you marry a wife?" Zhou Yang asked suddenly.

Lu Che: "...Children, don't ask me if I have anything."

"I'm no longer a child, I'm five years old." Zhou Yang was not convinced, he hummed for a while, and then said, "Uncle, if you marry a daughter-in-law, can you marry Sister Yaoyao as a daughter-in-law?"

Lu Che rubbed his hands on his back for a while, and said hard, "Don't talk nonsense, you can't say this kind of thing a second time."

"Why can't you say it?" Zhou Yang pursed his lips, "I want to make sister Yaoyao my aunt."

Lu Che glared at Zhou Yang again, Zhou Yang was shocked by his "obscenity and power", but still "unrepentant", changed to whisper and forced, "Sister Yaoyao's cooking is delicious, if she becomes My aunt will definitely cook for me all day long. Also, she even gave me and Xinxin candy to eat today, big white rabbit toffee, so fragrant and delicious. "

Zhou Yang said, his saliva was about to flow out, Lu Che snorted coldly, "You said so much, co-authoring is trying to sell me for food."

"I don't." Zhou Yang blurted out and denied it, but his confidence was not enough.

After serving Zhou Yang, the little ancestor, Lu Che sent him back to his room, and he was going to take a bath and sleep.

"Uncle, what's in your pocket?" Lu Che was about to turn around when the sharp-eyed Zhou Yang noticed that his pocket was slightly bulging.

"I don't have anything in my pocket." As Lu Che said, he looked at the pockets of his clothes, and then he remembered the eggs Jiang Yao gave him.

"It's nothing." Lu Che pretended that nothing had happened, but Zhou Yang had already rushed towards him, "It must be sugar, uncle, you are too boring, hide the sugar and don't give it to me..."

Lu Che didn't expect this little kid to think like Tangtang, and when he reacted to stop it, Zhou Yang had already opened his pocket and saw the white eggs inside.

"Oh... it's an egg. Uncle, you secretly eat the egg and don't give it to me."

"Don't shout, I'll cook you a head office tomorrow morning." Lu Che was so upset by this guy that he didn't care about his stalking. Walk.

The noise on their side startled the old lady. She came over with a cane and asked, "What are your uncles and nephews making a fuss about?"

"Grandma, my uncle hid an egg and can't eat it for me." Zhou Yang complained.

"Is there such a thing?" The old lady turned around and asked Lu Che, but he had already slipped away. She looked at his back and said angrily, "Lu Che, it's just an egg, can't you let your nephew go?"

"Okay, but this one won't work." Lu Che dropped the sentence and left without looking back.

Mrs. Lu: "...You kid, you really go back the more you live."

Lu Che took a shower and returned to his room, glanced at the eggs, and went to bed.

In fact, tonight's dinner has already been digested, but he is reluctant to eat this egg, and plans to save it for breakfast tomorrow. Anyway, he got up at five o'clock, Zhou Yang had no chance to snatch his eggs.

I was tired all day today, came back in the evening and worked overtime again, Lu Che soon fell asleep.

He didn't know how long he slept, but he felt very hot and sweaty, and when he saw the pond, he jumped into it. The moment he jumped in, a woman emerged from the water, rushed towards him, hugged him tightly, and shouted softly and charmingly: "I'm so uncomfortable, please save me. "

His first reaction was to knock her out, but just as he raised his hand, the woman in his arms said delicately, "Hurry up and hug me."

His hand paused for a while, then slowly fell back, and in the end he took it up in a mysterious way.

It was about three o'clock when Lu Che finished washing his trousers. He couldn't fall asleep at the moment. Looking at the egg on the table, he picked it up and knocked it hard, then peeled it, and finally swallowed it in his stomach.

Early the next morning, Lu Qing came to call Jiang Yao to hand in the handicraft, "There are many people doing handicrafts recently. Let's go to hand in early today and get the raw materials earlier, I'm afraid I won't be able to get it later."

"Okay." Jiang Yao didn't even have time to eat breakfast, so she went out with Lu Qing with her handmade work.

They are early, but there are many people who are earlier than them. By the time they waited in line to deliver the goods, the raw materials had already been taken out, and they had to return empty-handed.

Back at Lu's house, Jiang Yao saw that there was nothing to do today. After eating two sweet potatoes, she put on full sun protection and went to the county town.

According to the original owner's memory, her brother should have sent something to her, and she had to go to the post office to see.

As expected, her brother sent her a letter and a large package. She didn't know what was in the package, but the envelope was very thick. It was estimated that in addition to the letter, there was money and a ticket inside.

After leaving the post office, Jiang Yao went to the supply and marketing agency again. Fortunately, there is still a small piece of pork on the pork stall today, which is still the lean meat that people don't like in this era.

She bought the pork for three taels and fifteen cents, and another ten cents for a large piece of pork liver.

It was a package and a piece of meat. Thinking about the one-hour sun exposure, her desire to buy suddenly stopped, but she still had to find some pure cotton fabrics.

She didn't know when the original owner's period was, but she had been through it for almost a month, so she had to prepare some months/events in advance.

The original owner's monthly/event belt is a little old, and Jiang Yao will not be able to use this kind of private item.

After buying the fabric, Jiang Yao returned to Qingyuan with a big bag.

When she returned to the head of Qingyuan Village, she found that there were many people around the pond, and only after inquiring did she know that today was the day for the production team to divide the fish.

The fish in the pond at the head of the village are raised by the production team. After they are raised, they are distributed to the members of the commune. Twice a year, each person weighs about a pound. Although it’s not much, can’t eat pork several times a year. It’s not bad to have some fish to satisfy cravings.

Educated youths who have been in the queue for one year can also share the fish, and Jiang Yao, who has only been here for three months, can only watch.

Since she didn't have her share, this spot was so hot and sunny that Jiang Yao didn't even bother to watch the excitement.

Just when she wanted to turn around and go back, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Lu Che who was pulling the net in the water.

The other men were all wearing red fruit, but he was wearing clothes on his upper body, but he was already soaking wet and sticking to his body at the moment, and his strong figure was unobstructed.

The situation of herself in the water with him that night suddenly appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but feel hot on her face.

At this moment, he suddenly looked in her direction, so frightened that Jiang Yao immediately turned his head away, used the bustling crowd as a cover for himself, and walked quickly in the direction of Lu's house.

Jiang Yao's footsteps were fast, and her heartbeat was also accelerating. In her mind, images of when she and Lu Che were together kept popping up, the wet hugs in the pond...and the hugs in a hurry last night...

Stop thinking nonsense, she shook her head vigorously, until she returned to Lu's house, Zhou Yang and Zhou Xin saw her coming back, pestering her for something delicious, and the messy thoughts in her mind flew away.

"Sister Yaoyao is going to cook lean pork and liver porridge for you now, will I get you candy later?" Jiang Yao coaxed the brother and sister in a warm voice.

They all jumped up happily when they heard that there was meat to eat. Lu Qing on the side quickly said: "Yaoyao, don't, forget the sugar, the meat is really bad."

"It's alright, I can't finish it all by myself. Why don't I get the pork liver and meat, and you get the rice?" Jiang Yao suggested.

Lu Qing was a little embarrassed at first, but remembered that their family could get five catties of fish today, so he let her go, and said, "Okay, when the fish is back, let's invite you back to eat the fish."

Jiang Yao: "So happy to decide."

At noon, a pot of fragrant lean pork liver porridge came out. Lu Che didn't know when he would be back, so the old lady said, "leave some for Che Che, let's eat first."

"Then I'll pack him a bowl first." Jiang Yao said.

"Okay." The old lady responded, seeing that there was a lot of porridge in this pot, and the taste was very fragrant, and she said, "Yaoyao, can you make a bowl for Lao Lao, I remember he said that he likes eating pork liver very much. ."

"Elder Yue?" Jiang Yao didn't know why.

Lu Qing whispered: "Yue Lao is an intellectual living in our cowshed and a professor at the University of Mechanical Engineering."

Jiang Yao suddenly understood that the old lady always respected intellectuals, and it seemed that she usually took good care of this old Yue. She responded immediately, and put two extra pieces of pork liver on the porridge for Elder Yue.

After drinking the porridge, Lu Che hadn't come back. Jiang Yao was tired all morning and went back to her room to take a nap.

After walking for most of the morning, she fell asleep soon after lying in bed. When she was in a hazy sleep, she heard Zhou Yang and Zhou Xin talking outside.

She got up and opened the door and saw that the two brothers and sisters were talking excitedly around a big tank in the corner of the backyard. Lu Che stood by and watched them make trouble, with a rare gentle expression.

"Are you back?" She had just woken up, her voice was soft, making her heart tremble.

Lu Che raised his head when he heard the sound, glanced at her, and then said "um".

"Sister Yaoyao, wake up, come and see the fish, we have two big fish."

Although the uncle was very indifferent, the nephew and niece were very enthusiastic. The brothers and sisters ran to Jiang Yao's side, and one took her with one hand to watch the fish.

Zhou Yang and Zhou Xin were chatting non-stop, Jiang Yao listened to them patiently, and answered their questions even more.

She bent down slightly to match the height of the children, looked at them tenderly, and occasionally smiled, as if the surroundings were bright.

Lu Che looked at it, and the corners of his lips curled up at some point. When he noticed it, he couldn't help but panic and fled from here.

As soon as he walked to the front yard, he heard someone calling Jiang Yao outside, walked over and opened the door, and saw Jiang Chao standing outside the door.

Jiang Chao didn't think much of Lu Che at first, but now he doesn't dare to be too presumptuous at the door of other people's houses, and he said calmly, "Is Jiang Yao here?"

"No." Lu Che replied coldly.

"Not here? Do you know where she went?" Jiang Chao frowned.

"do not know."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yao's voice came from behind him, "Lu Che, come and have a look, there is a fish that seems to be out of luck."

"Yaoyao." Jiang Chao shouted immediately when he heard the sound, and regardless of Lu Che's stumbling block, he drilled in directly from his side.

"Jiang Chao, why are you here? Do you have anything to do with me?" Jiang Yao asked.

"There's something, a few of us old educated youths have split up the fish, and I want to get together with the educated youths. I came here specially to inform you." Jiang Chao said here, snorted coldly, and squinted at Lu Che, "But he said you weren't there."

"..."

The author has something to say:

Lu Che: It's too embarrassing, Xiaomi, you should save me some face.

Xiaomi: Where is the shame?This can let Yaoyao know your bad thoughts, which is a good thing.

Lu Che: ...
