Chapter 22 Speaking Straightly(1/2)

In the afternoon, Wang Zhong rode his bicycle and carried He Yuyu, who was holding a fishing rod and a bucket, back to the courtyard.

"Bring two fish back!" Wang Zhong parked his bicycle and said to Yu Yu as he walked towards his house.

Yuyu said: "It's better to say goodbye. These fish were all caught by you, Brother Wang Zhong. I didn't catch any of them, so I won't take them!"

Wang Zhong said: "You can take it if you want. What nonsense! This crucian carp is the most delicious when stewed in soup. Such a big wild crucian carp is no less nutritious than an old hen."

"Brother Wang Zhong, thank you!"

"You're so polite to me!"

"Then I'll put the rest of the fish in the bathroom for you!"

"OK!"

It was cold enough today, and Wang Zhong caught a lot of fish. Even Yu Yu and Yu Haitang, two novices, caught a lot of fish, but they didn't catch any big fish. The biggest one was a carp of about three kilograms that Wang Zhong caught.

These are the few crucian carp I brought back that were a little bit passable.

Wang Zhong sold all the carp and other small fish, leaving only five crucian carps for himself. Although the fish caught by Rainwater were not many and not big, they were enough for the brother and sister to eat for two meals, so Rainwater only

Will reject Wang Zhong's crucian carp.

"I'll save a meal for these small fishes too! Put them all in the bucket." After putting the fish away, Yuyu said goodbye and left Wang Chong's house with the crucian carp and small miscellaneous fish.

After parking the bicycle, Qin Jingru came over before Wang Zhong could enter the house. She probably saw Yu Yu returning home, so she came over to take a look. She happened to catch up with Wang Zhong, who had parked his bicycle and was about to go in.

"Brother Wang Zhong!" After not seeing each other for a long time, Qin Jingru's name for Wang Zhong actually changed and she learned how to call him Yu Yu.

"It's Miss Jingru, what's the matter?" Wang Zhong tilted his head and looked at Qin Jingru with a smile on his face.

Although Qin Jingru is not timid, she is still a young girl who has not left the court. When she saw Wang Zhong looking at her, her pretty face couldn't help but feel a little hot.

"Let me see if you have caught a big fish again!" Qin Jingru lowered her head, grabbed her braid, and pulled her hair.

"It's not that easy to catch big fish!" Wang Zhong said: "I just caught a few crucian carp and some small miscellaneous fish!"

"That's pretty awesome!" Qin Jingru's eyes almost had little stars popping out.

"Is Miss Jingru busy?" Wang Zhong asked.

Qin Jingru was stunned by Wang Zhong's question, and subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Wang Zhong, with disbelief and surprise in her eyes, and hurriedly said: "I'm not busy, what do I have to do?"

Wang Zhongdao: "If you're not busy, help me clean up the fish? Let's have dinner together later?"

"Really?" Qin Jingru asked still in disbelief.

Wang Zhongdao: "Of course!"

Qin Jingru's face immediately showed a deep joy: "Brother Wang Chong, I'm not bragging, I'm telling you, I know how to clean up the fish!"

"It's cold, let's stop standing here and go inside!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah!" Qin Jingru nodded immediately.

The two entered the house and put down the wind-proof curtain. Wang Zhong hung the bicycle key on the hook by the door and said at the same time: "The fish is in the bathroom, put it in the bucket!"

Qin Jingru quickly got into the bathroom and took out the bucket, took out the dustpan, placed the dustpan across the pool, picked up the bucket, and poured the fish onto the dustpan.

It should be water scooped out from the river, with some fine aquatic plants, dead branches and leaves mixed in. Qin Jingru quickly cleaned the fish twice, then put a few crucian carp back into the bucket, took off the short knife on the knife table, and

He quickly disemboweled the small fish one by one, removed the internal organs, and put it in a basin. You can tell at a glance that it is the kind that has been busy on the stove for many years.

"Did your sister tell you about me?" Wang Zhong asked suddenly, which made Qin Jingru's heart tremble. Fortunately, her hand was still steady and she didn't hurt herself.

Qin Jingru nodded slightly and said, "I told you!"

"What about my request?"

"I said it too!" Qin Huairu nodded again, but her heartbeat couldn't help but beat a few minutes faster, and her blood flow also began to speed up. Her pretty face was getting hotter and hotter, and she didn't know when it was dyed pink. She felt inexplicably a little bit in her heart.

Feeling anxious, excited and looking forward to it.

"I never like beating around the bush, so I'll just ask you some questions directly, so you don't have to feel pressure!"

"Yeah!" Qin Jingru felt hot all over her body and her mind was a little blank.

Wang Zhong asked: "What do you think?"

Qin Jingru was at a loss: "What do you think?"

Wang Zhongdao: "What do you think of me?"

"Very good!" Qin Jingru was a little arrogant and even trembled when she spoke.

Wang Zhong asked again: "What about my conditions? Can you do it?"

Qin Jingru's heart jumped into her throat, but after hearing Wang Zhong's words, she subconsciously replied: "I can do it. I will do whatever you ask me to do from now on, and I will listen to you!"

As soon as the words came out, Qin Jingru breathed a sigh of relief.

"Have you thought about it?" Wang Zhong turned to look at Qin Jingru and asked.

"Think about it!" Qin Jingru replied without thinking.

Wang Zhong suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed Qin Jingru's arm, and pulled her in front of him: "Look into my eyes, have you really thought about it?"

Qin Jingru raised her eyes to meet Wang Zhong's gaze, looking at the big black and shiny eyes that reflected her own appearance, and nodded heavily: "I have thought about it a long time ago! Otherwise, I wouldn't have followed my cousin here."

"Marriage is not a child's play. It is a lifelong matter. It is not a decision made on the spur of the moment. To be honest, the time we have been together is too short and we don't know each other well enough. If we make a decision rashly, we may regret it in the future...

···”

Before Wang Zhong finished speaking, Qin Jingru couldn't wait to interrupt Wang Zhong, and said with some excitement and urgency: "I don't regret it, and I definitely won't regret it."

"Don't be impatient, listen to me!" Wang Zhong spoke again, interrupting Qin Jingru's argument. Qin Jingru immediately raised her hand to cover her mouth, with a trace of panic in her eyes, for fear of offending Wang Zhong.

"It's also the time of the year for farming. You can stay at your cousin's place for a while. But her mother-in-law is hard to get along with. Except for sleeping at your cousin's place at night, you don't eat at her house. Come to my place."

, I will take care of all three meals a day, and by the way, I will do all the work that your cousin usually does at my house. I will still give the five yuan to your cousin, do you have any objections?"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "No objection!" Qin Jingru immediately shook her head and expressed her opinion.

"Very good!" Wang Zhong said: "Let's start from today!"

"You're not good at cooking. I'll cook the meal today, and you'll watch over me later and learn more carefully."

"Yeah!" After saying that, the stone hanging in Qin Jingru's heart fell to the ground, but she was not as nervous as she was at the beginning.

"It's still early. I'll take you to Chaoyang Vegetable Market later. From now on, you will have to do all the grocery shopping at home."

After hearing this, Qin Jingru was not unhappy, but instead had a heartfelt smile on her face.

Wang Zhong was talking about the future. Could it be that he really fell in love with him?

When she thought of this, Qin Jingru couldn't help but secretly look up at Wang Zhong.

He is tall, tall, young, promising, and capable. His monthly salary is three times that of his cousin. The key is that he is not bad looking. He looks like the future husband that Qin Jingru dreams of.

Women are strong-willed at heart, not to mention Qin Jingru, who wants to imitate her cousin Qin Huairu and marry in the city. Naturally, she wants to find someone with good conditions, young, and good looks.

And no matter which one of these items they are, Wang Zhong is not bad at all.

Qin Jingru is indeed a bit stupid. In the original plot, she was deceived by Xu Damao's sweet words and was thrown around in circles, even losing her body.

But now Wang Zhong just wants to find someone who is stupid and obedient. She only needs to take care of his own diet and daily life and keep the house in order, and he doesn't need her to manage finances and run the family business.

Qin Jingru packed up all the fish and marinated the fish under Wang Zhong's guidance. The two of them rode their bicycles and headed straight to Chaoyang Vegetable Market.

"Have you been to the vegetable market?" Wang Zhong asked.

Qin Jingru was sitting sideways on the back seat, her hands only holding the clothes behind Wang Zhong's waist, not daring to overstep. There was a vegetable basket hanging in her arms: "Been there! I used to sell old hens and eggs with my father."

In the countryside, old hens and eggs can be brought to the city in exchange for some food. As for things like pork, they are only eaten during holidays, so no one is willing to sell them.

Even the old hen wouldn't be willing to sell it unless he needed money urgently for something at home. He could still lay eggs in exchange for money.

Eggs are very expensive these days. It is more cost-effective to keep old hens to lay eggs than to sell them directly.

Chaoyang Vegetable Market is not close to Nanluogu Alley, but it is not far either. The two of them arrived in a short time on their bikes. Wang Zhong bought five pieces of tofu and a jar of fermented bean curd, and then led Qin Jingru to the meat stall.

"Are you buying meat again?" Qin Jingru quickly grabbed Wang Zhong and said, "Brother Wang Zhong, don't you still have fish at home?"

Wang Zhong saw that she looked worried about his money, and a gentle smile appeared on his face: "I know it well."

Seeing Wang Zhong's insistence, Qin Jingru wisely stopped talking and told Wang Zhong how to live a better life and save some money.

It's just that it's already afternoon, and there isn't much meat left at the butcher stall, and most of it is lean meat and bones. The most popular fat meat has been sold out long ago, let alone the pork suet. That stuff is long gone.

It was booked in advance by various units.

"Cut me half a catty of meat and put these tube bones on it!"

Seeing that Wang Zhong even wanted a meatless tube bone, Qin Jingru immediately became anxious. She frowned and wanted to speak, but remembering Wang Zhong's conditions, she immediately raised her hand to cover her mouth, fearing that she could not bear it.

Seeing her like this, Wang Zhong smiled unkindly.

"You're here now. Let's go back to buy some more seasonings. Look carefully. You'll have to buy all the seasonings later."

"Hmm!" Qin Jingru's expression was stern. She had no time to think, so she immediately followed Wang Zhong with full concentration and continued shopping at the market.

After a while, the vegetable basket in Qin Jingru's hand was filled to the brim. Fortunately, Qin Jingru has been waiting for her parents to work in the fields since she was a child. She may not be highly educated, but she still has a lot of strength.

"Brother Wang Zhong, why did you buy so many bones?" On the way back, Qin Jingru couldn't help but asked curiously.
