In the morning, there was a gentle breeze and floating clouds. It was another good weather.
Xu Hongdou squinted her eyes and woke up from a deep sleep. However, she did not get up immediately. Instead, she stayed in bed for a while. When she couldn't sleep anymore, she got up from the bed with difficulty.
After washing up and putting on simple makeup, Xu Hongdou came out of the room to breathe in the fresh air, stretched out, showing off her graceful figure.
"Good morning, Hongdou." Mr. Ma had just returned from shopping for groceries and greeted Xu Hongdou with a smile.
"Morning." Xu Hongdou's smile was slightly embarrassed. She always felt that there was a hint of joking in Mr. Ma's smile.
After going downstairs, Xu Hongdou came to the small kitchen and poured herself a glass of water.
As a result, Mr. Ma said with a smile: "Xiao Qin was called away by Xie Zhiyao early in the morning. We can only handle today's breakfast ourselves. He was afraid that you would sleep late, so he didn't call you."
"Master Ma, actually I am with him"
Before Xu Hongdou finished speaking, Mr. Ma lay down on the recliner, closed his eyes, and waved his hands.
"To understand each other, we all start as ordinary friends."
"I" Xu Hongdou wanted to explain the relationship with Qin Hao, but Master Ma looked like he was asleep.
"It's all that guy's fault." Xu Hongdou stomped his feet lightly, and suddenly became curious: "Why did Xie Zhiyao go to him so early in the morning?"
When they arrived at the market, Xu Hongdou ate a bowl of rice noodles and wandered slowly around the village. However, she felt a little bored, so she accidentally took out her cell phone and dialed a number.
"Hey, where are you?"
"What? Miss me?"
Xu Hongdou spat: "Stop being so sentimental, I'm just a little bored."
"That's just right. Xie Zhiyao is in need of manpower here. Come to the racecourse."
"Racecourse? You're not asking me to do hard labor, are you?"
"Don't worry, I can't bear to let a beautiful woman like you work as a coolie."
"Glib and slick, dead."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Hongdou suddenly realized that her tone just now seemed a bit like coquettishness?
Xu Hongdou came all the way to the racecourse and saw Qin Hao leading a horse all the way. There was a girl sitting on the horse. She had a small and exquisite figure and had the delicate and charming charm of a Jiangnan woman.
"Huh, why are you so positive? It turns out there is a girl." Xu Hongdou held the fence with both hands and snorted coldly.
Qin Hao was delighted. This girl was so jealous: "My dear, you are here, come in quickly."
Dear? Xu Hongdou made a shuddering gesture and glared at Qin Hao fiercely.
When the girl on the horse saw Xu Hongdou, she immediately wilted and said in a sour voice: "Oh, it turns out you really have a girlfriend."
"Well, so, do you still want to renew?"
"No, no need. I'm a little tired after riding for so long."
Only then did Xu Hongdou realize that this guy had called her here to stop him from getting married.
After the girl dismounted and left, before Xu Hongdou could start questioning her, Qin Hao walked to the edge of the fence and made an exaggerated expression: "It's so beautiful today. The girl just pestered me to ride the horse for more than an hour, and she said
I want to renew, why did I tell her that I have a girlfriend, but she just doesn’t believe it, and when you stop here, she immediately feels ashamed.”
Although she knew Qin Hao was deliberately being weird, Xu Hongdou still liked it, but she pretended to be disdainful on the surface.
"Hmph, I think you're just enjoying yourself and don't miss Shu. Besides, where did you get your girlfriend? Do I have anything to do with you?"
Qin Hao looked aggrieved, moved his head closer, and whispered: "Do a complete show, some girls over there are still looking over here, if you don't do it, they will probably come to me to learn how to ride a horse, please give me some face."
.”
"Okay, let me help you once." Xu Hongdou gracefully handed her hand to Qin Hao.
Qin Hao held her hand with a smile, and then Xu Hongdou stepped on the fence with one foot like last time. Qin Hao grabbed her arm and lifted her, and Xu Hongdou crossed the fence.
Just when the two people's eyes met, a discordant voice suddenly sounded.
"You can't let go of my poor fence. There's a main entrance over there."
Qin Hao turned around and glared at the culprit: "Why do I think your racecourse is not that busy? Let's not disturb you."
"No, brother, Brother Hao, I was wrong." Xie Zhiyao immediately changed his face to a dog-legged one.
After the laughter, Xu Hongdou also started to help receive tourists. This was a tour group of about ten people. They were all young people, and they were not difficult to get along with. It was just that a few girls kept pestering Xu Hongdou to talk about her relationship with Qin Hao.
love experience.
Xu Hongdou was also very bad. She told a particularly bizarre story. She had forgotten the origin of the story. She probably drew inspiration from some film and television works. As a result, several girls were moved to tears.
Qin Hao and Xie Zhiyao were puzzled, why did Xu Hongdou make customers cry while serving them?
After finally seeing off the tour group at noon, Xie Zhiyao curiously asked what was going on.
Naturally, Xu Hongdou would not tell the truth and rolled his eyes: "I told them that the boss here is very responsible. In order to build his hometown, he gave up his job in the capital. Not only did he spend all his savings, but he also owed money to the bank.
A big loan, and then they were moved to tears."
Xie Zhiyao really believed it. He hated hearing compliments in person, so he just found an excuse and left.
Qin Hao stretched out his hand and scratched Xu Hongdou's nose, and said dotingly: "You little liar."
Xu Hongdou wrinkled her nose and made a biting gesture: "You are the liar, you big liar!"
Qin Hao's charming expression made Qin Hao stir. He put his arms around Xu Hongdou's waist, and slowly brought their foreheads closer, almost touching each other. Suddenly, it started to rain.
"What are you doing standing there, run away." After Xu Hongdou broke away, he looked at Qin Hao with a smile on his face, who was looking very angry.
In the wooden house of the racecourse, all the horses had been driven into the stables. Most of Qin Hao's clothes were wet, so he simply took off his T-shirt.
Xie Zhiyao looked at Qin Hao's tendons and couldn't help but look envious: "In the six months since you've been here, I haven't seen how you exercise. How do you maintain it?"
"This is talent, you can't envy it." Qin Hao joked.
"You're out of breath even if you say you're not fat." Xie Zhiyao scolded with a smile.
Qin Hao put on Uncle Deqing's shirt and came out. Seeing Xu Hongdou staring at him, he put his hands behind his back and made a fool of himself: "How is it? Do you feel like a veteran cadre?"
"Pfft." Xu Hongdou glanced sideways at him.
"Here, I made some ginger tea. You all can drink some to avoid catching a cold."
"Thank you, Uncle Deqing."
Uncle Deqing also kindly lit the fire, and several people sat beside the fire, drinking ginger tea and chatting while looking at the rainy scene outside.
Xie Zhiyao said casually: "By the way, Hongdou should be leaving in two months, right? By then, Lao Qin, will you go back to the capital with us?"
A slight blush appeared on Xu Hongdou's face, and she glared at Xie Zhiyao: "Just say what you said, what are you trying to do with me?"
"Let's talk about it then. I don't want to go to the capital anymore. It's too depressing. It's not as comfortable as here." Qin Hao said and turned to Xu Hongdou: "How about you consider staying?"
"Stay?" Xu Hongdou was stunned for a moment. This was an option she had never considered before.
"Staying here and just sitting there in vain? Three months is already my limit. If I don't work and have no income for a long time, I feel panicked."
Xie Zhiyao and Uncle Deqing couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. People in this village have houses and land and are running away, let alone outsiders. Although consumption here is cheap, it still costs money.
Qin Hao held Xu Hongdou's right hand and smiled: "Don't you still have me?"
"You? The money you spent selling the house before will be spent one day, right? Besides, it's too early to start caring for the elderly at the age of thirty, isn't it?" Xu Hongdou struggled for a while, but didn't break free, and tilted angrily.
He glanced at Qin Hao.
Qin Hao squeezed Xu Hongdou's fleshy little hand and said thoughtfully: "It's really too early to retire at the age of thirty. How about we open a mom-and-pop shop together?"
"Bah, who wants to run a mom-and-pop shop like yours?" Xu Hongdou spat, and now she didn't even want to hold her hand.
Xie Zhiyao covered his face and exaggerated: "Okay, you two, I'm almost full of dog food."
"You deserve to be pushed to death." Qin Hao and Xu Hongdou said in unison.
The rain came and went quickly. After a while, the rain stopped and the sky cleared. Since it rained and the grass was wet, Qin Hao borrowed a "cutie" from Xie Zhiyao to take Xu Hongdou back to the courtyard.
Maybe it was because of the good riding experience that I didn't mention last time, Xu Hongdou was a little worried. When Qin Hao saw this, he got on the horse first and then handed his hand to her.
"Don't worry, I will ride slowly this time."
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Hongdou handed his hand to Qin Hao.
Qin Hao directly lifted Xu Hongdou up with all his strength. Seeing that Xu Hongdou kept a distance from him, Qin Hao directly knocked the horse's belly with his legs: "Drive!"
The "little cutie" sprinted straight away, causing Xu Hongdou to exclaim and subconsciously ran into Qin Hao's arms.
"Ah, you liar!"
After leaving the racecourse, Qin Hao signaled the "little cutie" to slow down, and just walked on the grass with Xu Hongdou in his arms. The freshly dripped rainwater was still hanging on the green and tender grass. After the rain, butterflies and dragonflies also appeared.
The hiding place popped up.
Xu Hongdou pinched Qin Hao hard: "Don't let go yet."
As a result, Qin Hao immediately let go of the reins and hugged Xu Hongdou from behind.
Xu Hongdou was furious: "Rogue."
"I'm just acting on my boyfriend's normal rights, okay."
"Bah, who is your girlfriend?" Xu Hongdou spat.
Qin Hao shamelessly said, "I don't want to admit it now. It's too late. You took away my first kiss."
"I believe you are a ghost. With your condition, you were often pursued by girls when you were in school, right?"
"I have a lot to pursue, but I am determined and remain calm."
Xu Hongdou smiled angrily: "You're already sitting in my arms. I don't think your will is very good."
Well, I can only say that the scheduling was tricky, but Qin Hao was speechless.
After a while, Xu Hongdou patted Qin Hao and said, "Go back, I'm hungry."
"What do you want to eat for lunch?"
"Yeah, sweet and sour pork ribs. I saw Mr. Ma bought ribs today."
"Turns out he is a foodie, no wonder he looks fatter than before."
"You're the only one who's gained weight. Let's take a beating."
The sound of horse hooves was heard slowly, walking slowly on the green grass, and the grasshoppers hiding in the grass were startled to jump around along the way.
When they arrived at the entrance of Youfeng Courtyard, Qin Hao was reluctant to dismount, still holding Xu Hongdou in his arms. The villagers passing by looked at the two of them with ambiguous eyes, and Qin Hao even greeted each other shamelessly.
Xu Hongdou couldn't hold it anymore and struggled to get down.
"I'll let you go if you admit my identity." Qin Hao held Xu Hongdou's waist with both hands to prevent her from falling when she struggled.
"You are a scoundrel!" Xu Hongdou said angrily.
"That's what you forced me to do."
Seeing that Qin Hao was determined to continue spending money, Xu Hongdou had no choice but to compromise.
"If you win, let me go."
"This is what you said, don't go back on it." Qin Hao said and immediately turned over and dismounted, and was about to reach out to help Xu Hongdou down.
As a result, Xu Hongdou jumped off the horse and glared at Qin Hao: "Why don't you tie the horse up? I'm hungry."
After saying that, he took the lead and entered the small courtyard.
When Qin Hao tied up the "little cutie" and returned to the courtyard, Xu Hongdou was not in the courtyard. He probably went back to the room to change clothes.
"Wow, these sweet and sour pork ribs are so delicious, brother Hao, how did you know I like to eat this?" Damai chewed the crispy bones and made a loud crunching sound.
Mr. Ma glanced at Qin Hao and Xu Hongdou teasingly: "Xiao Qin, I'm afraid this dish is not for Damai, right?"
Qin Hao directly gave Mr. Ma a piece of pork ribs: "If you eat enough, I can't stop your mouth."
"That's right." Xu Hongdou also gave Ma Ye a piece and glared at him.
Mr. Ma shook his head for a while: "Oh, it's only been a few days, and the husband and wife have already started to live together."
Da Mai blinked dullly and asked cautiously: "Did I eat a little too much?"
"Pfft." Xu Hongdou turned his head away, laughing so hard that his shoulders were shaking.
Qin Hao and Ma Ye couldn't help but laugh.
"Da Mai, don't listen to Mr. Ma's nonsense. This is specially made for you. Eat more." Xu Hongdou gave Da Mai several pieces of ribs as he spoke.
"That's enough, that's enough, Sister Hongdou, you can eat too." Damai felt a little embarrassed while holding the bowl.
"Eat it. If it's not enough, I'll cook it next time. Sister Hongdou has plenty of opportunities to eat the food I cook."
As soon as Qin Hao finished speaking, Xu Hongdou glared at him.
Damai's expression changed from surprise to surprise, and he held Xu Hongdou's hand: "Sister Hongdou, so you two are together?"
Xu Hongdou didn't answer, but her expression said everything.
"Sister Hongdou congratulates you, it's so nice. I just want to say that you and Brother Hao are both talented and handsome. It would be a pity if you missed it." Damai actually cried as he spoke.
"Silly girl, why are you still crying? Please wipe it off." Xu Hongdou hugged Damai's shoulders and coaxed.
"Thank you." Damai took the tissue, tears still falling: "I, I'm just touched. Sister Hongdou, don't worry about me. I'll be fine in a moment."
Qin Hao secretly lamented that in the chaebol world, all he saw were intrigues and intrigues, but here he felt inexplicably healed.
