Chapter 221 Birthday Present
In fact, after Ye Lan visited her several times, Hua Qiao knew that she should no longer care about heavy matters. Regardless of whether what Ye Lan said was true or not, Ye Lan was not someone she could afford.
She asked in a roundabout way from Xingyue that Ye Lan's family was very influential in Jiuqing County, maybe not to the point of being able to dominate the world with one hand, but it would still be easy to deal with her, a fatherless person.
But who would have known that she just went out to buy firecrackers and ended up in trouble.
The point is, the heavy weight is obviously waiting at her door.
After hesitating and struggling for a few times, Huaqiao felt that she had to say something.
Who made Shen Sheng be so kind to her? Not only did he save Nanfang, but he also provided her with a lot of conveniences. It can be said that the fact that she and her mother and uncle can live such a good life now has a lot to do with Shen Shen.
besides......
She suppressed the deepest turmoil in her heart. The above reasons alone could not let her pretend that she did not see the heaviness.
After hearing Hua Xiao's words, the smile in his heavy eyes deepened. He simply stopped talking and just smiled at Hua Xiao's somewhat frustrated look.
She cares about him!
Hua Xiao waited for Shen Yan to speak, but Shen Sheng just looked at her and smiled, which made her heart beat faster and made her feel a little embarrassed.
What does this person mean?
Follow her just to see her smile?
Could it be that she thought what she said was ridiculous? Thinking of this possibility, Huaxia muttered a little.
"Henan, what do you want from me?"
He still looked at her without speaking.
Being stared at like this, even though Ren Huaqiao is mature and steady, she can't help but feel uneasy.
She simply stamped her feet, turned around and walked forward.
Think of her as being nosy!
Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around and took two steps, there were rapid footsteps behind her, and then her arm was grabbed and she couldn't walk anymore.
She looked back again at the heavy weight that was close at hand.
The corners of his mouth raised heavily, "I haven't seen you for a while, why have you become so impatient."
What a slap in the face!
Huaxia couldn't help but retort: "If you don't, don't say anything."
He raised his hand heavily and flicked her forehead.
fancy:"......."
I feel like I'm being teased.
She took advantage of the opportunity to let go of her arm, took two steps back, and distanced herself.
"Why are you dressed like this? Is it inconvenient to show up?"
The hat that covers the face, the loose tunic suit, and the fake beard.
He smiled heavily and asked, "How did you recognize me?"
He felt that his disguise was so successful that most people wouldn't be able to spot it at all. Unexpectedly, Hua Xiao recognized him just by looking at him.
Hua Xiao couldn't explain why, but he just recognized it.
She couldn't say it was just a feeling, so she simply said nothing and looked at him like he just did without speaking.
Shen Zhan raised the corner of his mouth again, "I don't want people to know that I am in Jiuqing County, especially Ye Lan's house, so I dress like this. I will leave tomorrow."
It sounds so mysterious, but why can't Ye Lan's family know that he is in Jiuqing County? Isn't Ye Lan's grandfather kind to Shen Zhong? Then why does he still show up at her door?
There were a lot of questions in Hua Qiao's mind, and she finally asked just one question: "Then why did you come to me? If there is anything I can do to help, just tell me."
He took out a white handkerchief from his heavy pocket. There was obviously something wrapped in the handkerchief. He handed it to Hua Qiao.
"Give."
Hua Qiao didn't answer? She asked doubtfully: "What is it?"
"birthday present."
Hua Xiao was stunned for a moment. She celebrated her birthday two days ago, but she didn't make any announcement about it, because she didn't pay much attention to birthdays. She didn't like to celebrate in a big way, so her mother just cooked her a bowl of noodles that day. She placed two poached eggs and said that even Xingyue didn't know it was her birthday.
How do you know it’s heavy?
"Take it." Zhan Sheng pushed forward again. "It's not a good thing. I should leave in a while. I'll open it when I get back."
Hua Qiao glanced at the handkerchief in his hand again, but then raised her head and said something irrelevant: "Ye Lan said she likes you very much. You two will get married after graduating from college."
After a heavy pause, he then chuckled: "It has nothing to do with me who she likes. As for marriage, my future partner will definitely not be her. Anything she says in the future? You don't have to take it seriously."
He handed the handkerchief forward again. After thinking about it, Hua Xiao took it and said, "When is your birthday? I will give you a birthday gift next time too."
Reciprocity is a courtesy!
"Okay." He said with a heavy tone and a light tone: "My birthday is September 10th, you have to remember it."
"good."
"Then I'm leaving. You can go back." After giving the gift, Shen Sheng waved his hand to let Hua Qiao go first.
Hua Xiao held a cloth bag filled with firecrackers in one hand and held a handkerchief in the other. She walked home with one foot deep and one foot shallow. She had no idea that Shen Sheng was still following her not far or near. She didn't turn around until she saw her entering the door. .
...
Lin Xiangye was packing things in the yard. Seeing her daughter looking absent-minded, she asked curiously: "What's wrong? Did something happen on the road?"
Hua Qiao came back to her senses and shook her head subconsciously: "No."
She handed the firecrackers to her mother and put them in her luggage, without saying a word about the heavy things she encountered.
Lin Xiangye didn't ask any more questions.
At night, after Huaqiao heard the sound of her mother sleeping in the room, she quietly took out the handkerchief from her pocket. She gently opened the handkerchief, and there was a thumb-sized jade safety button inside. It was green and very beautiful, but it was also Not expensive.
She looked at it for a while, then wrapped it up and hid it together with the hairpin she received during the New Year.
When I was about to fall asleep, I suddenly remembered that Shen Sheng hadn't told me what he thought about the college entrance examination. Hey, I really didn't have enough brain power.
Early the next morning, Lin Xiangye and Lin Guohua took their pretty siblings out back to the countryside with large and small bags.
They borrowed a bicycle from Principal Song's house, plus a bicycle given by Li Xingyue before.
Lin Xiangye took Hua Qiao, and Lin Guohua took Hua Nanfang, riding their bicycles all the way back to the village.
Because Lin Guohua made a lot of money from the watches he bought back from Yangcheng years ago, the Lin family simply built three new large tile-roofed houses in the yard. The houses were built on the same large tiled-roofed house owned by the village party secretary's family, so they didn't really steal the limelight. .
After the house was repaired, Father Lin decided to hold a high-profile banquet, invite some relatives, friends and villagers, and give his son a blind date, so that interested people in the next two months could come and see his old son. If they really fall in love with each other, then that would be It's a double blessing.
Lin Xiangye and the four of them got busy as soon as they returned. People came one after another throughout the morning to help, visit the three large tile-roofed houses of the Lin family, or chat with the Lin family. The yard was very lively.
Hua Qiao didn't know anyone except her grandparents, so she just stayed with her mother, listening to people chatting and watching the fun, and by the way, she helped serve tea, pour water, and grab fruits to entertain people.
"Sister, come quickly."
Suddenly Hua Nanfang jumped over and grabbed Hua Qiao's arm and walked outside.
Chapter completed!
