Chapter 33 The rough guy always stares at her

Cheng Huai opened his eyes instantly and held the hand she extended, his chest rising and falling heavily.

Being held by the man's warm yet slightly rough hands, Jiang Miao grabbed the thin quilt and looked at him: "It's a bit cold at night, I'll cover you with a quilt."

Cheng Huai then turned his eyes to the quilt in her hand and pursed his lower lip, "I'm not cold."

"Then I won't cover you." Jiang Miao wanted to take back her hand.

But he grabbed her wrist and moved it towards him. She couldn't hold it up, so she had to put her other hand on his chest.

With a muffled sound, the man's hot breath hit her face, and Jiang Miao accidentally laid her head on his strong chest.

Soon, she felt the man beneath her sit up, and at the same time, his two big hands lifted her aside as if holding a child.

With her back against the wall, Jiang Miao was stunned for a moment, then met his bright eyes and said quickly: "I didn't mean it."

Cheng Huai looked at her steadily, then quickly looked away and lay down, "Go to sleep." His throat was a little dry and his heart was beating a little faster.

Jiang Miao pulled the quilt and lay down, her heart pounding, and she quickly fell asleep.

The next morning, Jiang Miao found out that she was sleeping with Cheng Huai on her back again, and Jiang Miao learned to calm down.

She quickly retracted her hands and feet and leaned her back against the wall.

Cheng Huai is still sleeping, maybe because he was too tired yesterday, he slept a little deeply.

Jiang Miao was still awake, with the back of her head pressed against the wall, her eyes lingering slowly on him.

The rough man was really big, taking up almost all the space in the narrow little bed. It was no wonder that she always squeezed in next to him when she fell asleep.

After waking up for a while, Jiang Miao got up from the bed, stepped over Cheng Huai's legs, then got out of bed and put on her shoes.

Cheng Huai sat up suddenly and stared at her little face with a steady expression. Seeing that she was holding on to the bed board and putting on her shoes, he was unable to stand still, so he kindly reached out to help her.

Seeing that he was awake, Jiang Miao smiled and said hello: "Good morning, Cheng Huai."

The man's deep eyes narrowed slightly, "Morning."

After putting on her shoes, Jiang Miao went out to find Yu Ying.

Yu Ying woke up early in the morning and was boiling hot water. After it was boiled, she blanched and plucked the pheasant that Cheng Huai had shot last night, chopped it up and threw it on the stove to stew.

Jiang Miao didn't help. After washing, she went into the house and took the big and small babies out of bed one by one after they woke up. Then she took them to the backyard to pee and washed their faces.

Dabao let Jiang Miao rub his face in a daze, and smiled stupidly: "Mom, Dabao smells good!"

Jiang Miao couldn't help but kiss Yuan Tuanzi's little face: "Xiang, Dabao becomes Xiang baby after washing his face."

Cheng Xiaobao saw it and hurriedly came over, "Mom, Xiaobao, I want it." He was afraid that Jiang Miao would miss him.

Jiang Miao poured out a bowl of water and kissed Xiaobao's cheek with a smile. Xiaobao suddenly smiled and opened his mouth to reveal his baby teeth.

Yu Ying came out of the kitchen with two small bowls and looked at the two clingy people, "Have Dabao and Xiaobao finished washing their faces? Come over and eat the paste after washing."

"After washing, go to grandma's place for dinner." Jiang Miao patted their butts.

The two cubs twisted their little buttocks and walked over obediently.

Yu Ying watched Dabao and Xiaobao eat while looking at Jiang Miao: "Miao Miao, let's go eat too. The buns and pickles are on the stove. Why hasn't Cheng Huai come over yet? Is he still awake?"

"I'm awake. I should be busy with other things. I'll call him." Jiang Miao stood up and headed towards the front room.

Then I saw the rough man coming back from outside, holding something like an iron lump in his hand.

She stepped forward and said, "Cheng Huai, mother told us to eat. You go and wash up quickly."

"Bronze mirror." Cheng Huai gave her the iron lump in his hand.

Jiang Miao's eyes lit up and she reached out to take it: "Did you borrow it from the village chief?"

Seeing that she was happy, the rough man nodded slightly: "Yes."

"Thank you Cheng Huai." She looked up at him with genuine gratitude in her eyes.

Originally, she planned to look into the water tank so that she could see clearly, but the rough man kept the mirror in his mind. It would be false to say that he was not impressed. No one had ever cared about her so much.

Not knowing how to reply, Cheng Huai simply nodded again and strode to the back.

Jiang Miao then turned over the other side of the bronze mirror and looked at it seriously.

Although it was a mirror, it still looked blurry. Jiang Miao could only slowly shake her head to see her facial features clearly.

Not ugly, but a bit good-looking. He is roughly similar to his appearance in his previous life, but he looks a lot more immature.

She slowly accepted this look in her heart, and after looking at it for a while, she became more and more comfortable with it.

No wonder the rough guy always stares at her, she's so good-looking.

After putting the bronze mirror away, she went to the back happily.

Cheng Huai had already finished washing and was sitting on the bench eating the steamed buns. When he saw Jiang Miao coming, he also gave one to her.

Jiang Miao sat down on the edge and started eating slowly.

Yu Ying put all the courgettes picked yesterday into the basket, and put the steamed buns in the other basket, separated by cloth and stuffed with paper for packing the steamed buns.

"Girl Miao, if anyone asks about this courgette, just say it's one penny per catty. You can still sell it for two penny or three catties."

Jiang Miao swallowed the buns and said, "Well, courgettes are worth a penny and buns are a penny."

Nowadays, every household in the village has courgettes, so they are not valuable. Coupled with the drought, the courgettes are small and do not sell well, so fewer people want to buy them.

But the family couldn't finish it, so they had to sell it.

"Mom, is there anything you want to buy today?" Jiang Miao finished eating the buns and looked at Yu Ying seriously.

Yu Ying lifted two baskets, weighed them, and shook his head: "There's nothing to buy. I have everything at home."

"When you finish selling the buns, you can walk around the town to see if there's anything you want to buy, and just make up your own mind." Yu Ying continued.

She was not afraid of Jiang Miao and Cheng Huai buying things randomly.

Each of them has a plan in mind and will not spend money randomly. If they want to buy something, it must be that thing.

"Okay." Jiang Miao felt a strong sense of trust surrounding her again.

Last time she went to town to sell rabbits and steamed buns, Yu Ying gave her all the money, but most of the copper plates were replaced with broken silver, making the small purse look much smaller.

Obviously, Yu Ying had no intention of getting the money back, but let her take care of it.

After eating the steamed buns, Cheng Huai drank half a bowl of water, then went to pick up the two baskets on the ground and prepared to go out.

Jiang Miao went to the wall and took down two straw hats. They were too hot when she came back at noon last time. She learned a lesson this time.

"Mom, let's go out then."

Yu Ying held the two children and did not let them follow, "Go ahead and bring the courgettes back before they are sold out. Mom will dry them into dried courgettes and eat them."

Jiang Miao raised her lips and smiled: "Okay, we understand."

"Mom, dry it out." Dabao waved to them.

Xiaobao's eyes lit up: "Mom, eat!"

Jiang Miao couldn't help but laugh, and turned around and waved, and then she and Cheng Huai went downhill to the entrance of the village.

It was still very early, and there were not many people on the bullock cart. They were chatting in small groups.
