Chapter 20 Borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha

"It's not that I can't, it's that it's too late."

Qin Yan corrected him, she couldn't stand the smell on her body for a second!

As she said that, she also looked at Sheng Manjiang. His clothes had obviously been changed, and his temples were still a little wet. He had also taken a shower, and there was still some coldness left on his body, but it was not obvious.

Qin Yan puffed up his face and asked him with his eyes widened.

"Did you wash in hot water or cold water?"

"cold water."

Sheng Manjiang was silent for a moment and then uttered two words.

"That's right, the boss doesn't talk about the second child."

Qin Yan raised her eyebrows in satisfaction, winning back a victory. When her eyes moved down, she saw Sheng Manjiang's hand carrying a lot of things, and she shook her head like a rattle.

"No need to cook for me today, I can't eat."

"no."

Sheng Manjiang refused her unreasonable request and strode in, and then cooked for her in a different way. Maybe he was afraid that she would be disgusted by seeing the rice soup, so today he simply steamed dry rice and made a dish of red stir-fried prawns.

There is also a fragrant braised pork and a plate of green vegetables with garlic paste.

The smell was so fragrant. Qin Yan shrugged the tip of his nose and quickly took his seat.

"Do you want to eat together? There are many dishes."

Qin Yan temporarily forgot about her nausea, sat down with eyes shining, and kindly invited a certain chef to dine with her.

It's embarrassing to say that Sheng Manjiang contributed the cooking skills and the ingredients. Qin Yan felt that she and Sheng Manjiang were probably in a tacit understanding stage now. If it weren't for the system, she didn't believe that in such a barren era, anyone would be so easy

It was so considerate to give away so much food.

After coming to a conclusion, she relaxed a lot and her attitude towards Sheng Manjiang became more casual.

"Need not."

Sheng Manjiang is just here to be a chef. He is squatting in front of the water tank to clean his tool - a small iron pot. He is tall, even if he squats down, he still looks like an insurmountable mountain, and his line of sight can almost reach

Qin Yan was sitting on the chair.

He lowered his eyes, brushed silently, had a mature and resolute face, and a broad back with thick knuckles. He was a person who made people feel safe.

Qin Yan looked at him while peeling the shrimp shells.

"Uncle Gen, do you know? Everyone calls him Gen Wazi, the one who said his wife had a difficult childbirth and then went crazy."

"Know."

Sheng Manjiang said without raising his head, his voice was steady.

"What's going on in their house? I saw his wife running out today. She looked a little pitiful."

Qin Yan still felt uncomfortable when he thought of that woman, and suddenly the prawns no longer smelled good.

"Do you think he abused his wife?"

Sheng Manjiang raised his eyebrows slightly, looked back at her with a handsome face, and guessed what Qin Yan was thinking.

"Hmm... I'm just asking."

"I just saw a lot of injuries on her body. Even if they were caused when she was not thinking clearly, they shouldn't be so many. And she kept talking about someone hitting her and complaining about pain. She was because the child was too irritated.

Crazy, if no one hit her, she really shouldn't have these stress reactions."

"Besides, she is very afraid of Uncle Gen."

Qin Yan said firmly.

Sheng Manjiang stared at her indifferently, but he was a little surprised. She could analyze so many things by just looking at one face? This little educated youth is a bit smart.

"So what? Are you going to take care of this?"

"Have you ever thought about who would take care of her in the future without Uncle Gen? It's impossible for her family to take care of her. Her parents have passed away, and there are only a brother and sister-in-law left in the family, and their lives are not easy."

"With Uncle Gen here, she can at least have a bite to eat."

Sheng Manjiang obviously knew the situation of the people in the team very clearly.

"Then what you mean is that you also think that Uncle Gen is abusing his wife? Isn't this my illusion?"

"I haven't decided whether to take care of it yet, but even if I do, it's not my place to take care of it. This matter can only be handled properly if the captain comes forward. I'm just a young educated youth. What can I say?"

Qin Yan shook her head and stuffed a prawn into her mouth, which was quite unpalatable. On the contrary, she hoped that this was her illusion. At least the woman could still have a man to rely on and her life would not be so miserable.

"I'm going back."

Sheng Manjiang didn't answer any more. He stood up and put the pot back.

Qin Yan peeled the shrimps very quickly, and chatting did not waste her time. In just a moment, half of them were peeled out. After hearing this, she handed a neatly packed bowl of bare prawns to Sheng Manjiang.

, the red lips parted slightly.

"Borrow flowers to offer to Buddha. Thank you for cooking for me. Without you, I would probably starve to death."

"Listen to me and say thank you, because with you, the four seasons are full~~~"

Qin Yan's eyes twinkled, and she started singing with a smile. The corners of her mouth were slightly curved, as if she was suppressing a smile, and her voice was slightly trembling, like tiny feathers brushing against the top of her heart. Sheng Manjiang felt a little itchy and inexplicable when she heard this.

What on earth is she laughing at?

Little did he know that this song was so popular in a certain music genre that it became a well-known meme.

"Why don't you continue? My raised hands are sore."

Qin Yan raised her almond-shaped eyes slightly, looked at him jokingly, and complained softly. When she raised her hand, her sleeves were slightly pulled back, revealing a white and delicate wrist with a touch of dazzling red. Because

Her skin is so white, like mutton-fat jade, that any color will be particularly noticeable if applied to it.

Sheng Manjiang felt inexplicably that this wrist was very suitable for wearing bracelets. It was best to wear two bracelets. When the two bracelets touched each other manually, they made a jingling sound, which was clear and sweet, just like her.

"Um."

His throat suddenly felt dry. After sliding his Adam's apple to moisten his throat, he took the bowl with almost drooped eyelids and stepped away, his back looking a little eager.

"Why are you walking so fast?"

Qin Yan mumbled and looked away in confusion.

She planned to resolve the woman's matter in two steps. First, determine Genwazi's crime, and then take the opportunity to let the captain see Genwazi's true face, and hand over the execution power to the captain. Although the captain had a bad temper, he was upright and kind, so he should not

Will ignore it.

After thinking about this, her appetite increased and she ate all the food on the table.

the next day.

"Xiaoyan, Xiaoyan, guess what happened yesterday!"

As soon as Zhao Tiantian saw Qin Yan, his legs were no longer sore and his hands were no longer painful. He rushed over excitedly, his whole body exuding the aura of gossip.

"What did you see?"

Qin Yan followed her words and asked.

"I saw that Sister Meihua broke up with her partner! Yesterday that man came to the educated youth center to find Sister Meihua, and Sister Meihua even threw the things he gave her before in his face! What do you think is going on? They are not

Are you about to get engaged? I heard that Sister Meihua even went to her partner’s house for dinner! Why did they break up right away? It’s so strange.

Her partner seems to be the village chief's son. Although he is not very good-looking, if Sister Meihua marries him, wouldn't her life be much better than now? At least she won't have to do so much work anymore."

When Zhao Tiantian said these words, he was still a little envious.

"Li Meihua and Chen Jianping broke up? What a good thing!"
