Chapter 444: A Little Goodbye is Better than a New Marriage
On the way back, Qin Hao also kept holding Xu Hongdou's hand. This time Xu Hongdou just glanced at him sideways and did not break away.
"Have you reached an agreement with the village party secretary?"
Qin Hao nodded: "Well, wait until the villagers meeting passes it, then negotiate the transfer price with the B&B owner, and then we can officially sign the contract."
Xu Hongdou suddenly fell silent.
"Have you ever thought about staying here?"
Qin Hao's words made Xu Hongdou a little surprised, and he didn't react for a while: "What?"
"I mean, since you finally got rid of the fast-paced life in the capital and you like it here, why don't you stay? It just so happens that hotel management is also your profession." Qin Hao said slowly.
Seeing that Qin Hao didn't look like he was joking, Xu Hongdou straightened her hair that was messed up by the wind.
"Why did you suddenly have such an idea?"
Qin Hao squeezed Xu Hongdou's soft little hand and said seriously: "Life in the capital is too depressing, so I sold my house and came here. It is true that big cities have better medical resources and better education systems.
But living like a clockwork robot every day is not the life I want, and I don’t want my partner or future children to live that kind of life.”
"Yunmiao Village has beautiful scenery and simple folk customs. I hope that in the future our children can have a carefree childhood like Huzi and others. We can take him to ride horses on the Erhai Lake, pick mushrooms and bamboo shoots in the mountains,
Instead of taking him on the way to various extracurricular tutoring classes every day."
Xu Hongdou was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Qin Hao to have thought so far ahead. She was still in the state of just falling in love, and felt a little guilty for a moment. At the same time, the scene described in Qin Hao's words also made her heart beat, yes.
, isn’t what she misses the most the time she spent living with her grandma in the countryside when she was a child?
As Qin Hao said, in an environment like the capital, it is difficult not to have "chicken-child anxiety", and both adults and children will be very tired...
"Who is going to have a baby with you?"
After a long while, Xu Hongdou rolled her eyes at Qin Hao, broke away from Qin Hao's hand and walked quickly towards the small courtyard.
Qin Hao shouted at Xu Hongdou's back: "Think about it."
"Don't think about it! It's a beautiful idea." Xu Hongdou turned around and made a face at Qin Hao.
Qin Hao caught up with Xu Hongdou and said with a smile: "What I mean is, consider staying and managing the B&B."
Only then did Xu Hongdou realize that Qin Hao had tricked him, and said angrily: "Yes, that's what I said, don't consider it."
Qin Hao:..........
Seeing Qin Hao's speechless look, Xu Hongdou covered her mouth and smiled softly, raising her chin proudly. A halo of light seemed to surround her fair profile in the sun, full of fairy spirit.
"What are you looking at?"
Xu Hongdou couldn't help but get angry when she saw Qin Hao staring at her.
"Look at the fairy." Qin Hao replied subconsciously.
"Glib and smooth."
"Seriously, there was a cloud that looked like a fairy floating in the sky just now. Oh, don't go so fast."
.......
Two days later, with the help of Xie Zhiyao, Qin Hao negotiated with the owner of the B&B via video, and the two parties reached an agreement on the transfer price of the B&B, with a one-time payment of 1.12 million.
However, since the B&B owner's wife was undergoing chemotherapy and had to be cared for by someone around her, Qin Hao had no choice but to go to Shanghai to sign the contract.
At the same time, the village party secretary also held a village meeting to vote on the contract, and finally passed the resolution with 72% of the votes in favor. However, there was an additional clause, that is, in the future, the cleaning and service personnel of the B&B must give priority to the villagers of Yunmiao Village.
.
"Brother Hao is so efficient in doing things. He settled everything so quickly." Damai said with emotion.
Mr. Ma was rocking on the recliner with his eyes closed, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xu Hongdou rested her chin, her thoughts a little wandering. In fact, in the past two days, the scene Qin Hao described that day would appear in her mind from time to time. That kind of life made her yearn for it, but at the same time, it made her feel a little unreal.
"Sister Hongdou, what are you thinking about? You are so absorbed," Damai poked Xu Hongdou's arm with his finger and asked curiously.
Xu Hongdou smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing."
"Oh, Sister Hongdou, are you reluctant to let Brother Hao go to Shanghai? Is this what it feels like to be in love? You'll be worried about being apart for a few days." Damai held his face, his face full of envy.
Xu Hongdou hit her on the head and smiled: "Since you want to know the feeling of being in love so much, then go find one yourself."
But Damai said with a dejected look: "Let's forget it. I'm neither as beautiful as Sister Hongdou, nor as gentle as you. I'm also socially intimidated. I guess I'll have to be an old girl under my parents' knees for the rest of my life."
"Nonsense, we Damai just don't dress up. If you dress up a little, you will definitely look like a beautiful lady. Moreover, you have a good personality and are so talented. You will definitely meet a boy who likes you and appreciates you."
Xu Hongdou pinched Damai's cheek and comforted her.
Damai pursed his lips: "I hope so."
"By the way, where's Brother Hao?" Damai wasn't used to accepting comfort from others, so he changed the subject.
Xu Hongdou raised his head and glanced at the bright light in Qin Hao's room: "I should be packing things, but it's been so long, why haven't I packed them yet? I'll go up and take a look."
"Yeah." Damai was smart enough not to follow Xu Hongdou and join in the fun.
Arriving on the second floor, Xu Hongdou knocked on Qin Hao's door.
"Come in, the door is unlocked."
Xu Hongdou opened the door and saw a pile of clothes on Qin Hao's bed and an open suitcase lying on the floor.
"What are you doing? Going to the Fashion Week catwalk?" Xu Hongdou couldn't help but feel a little funny. She had never seen Qin Hao look so embarrassed.
Qin Hao spread his hands helplessly: "When I came here last time, I brought a few changes of clothes. In addition, these were bought at tourist places, and they are not very formal."
"Why are you dressed so formally? It's not like you're going for an interview." Xu Hongdou asked curiously.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Qin Hao stepped forward and took Xu Hongdou's hand: "Didn't you say that your sister was in the Magic City? I was thinking about going to the Magic City during this time.
, meet your sister..."
"You want to see Xu Hongmi?" Xu Hongdou almost jumped up as if he had been bitten by a snake.
"No, absolutely not."
Qin Hao was a little amused: "With such a big reaction, am I so helpless?"
Xu Hongdou said angrily: "I haven't told my family yet. Besides, you don't know that my sister is very picky. She will definitely judge you when the time comes. Why should my boyfriend be taken advantage of by her?"
Pointing fingers."
"Are you afraid of your sister?" Qin Hao exposed it directly.
Xu Hongdou was silent. Her sister Xu Hongmi had been a very strong person since she was a child. She not only studied well, but also had high demands on herself. At first, Xu Hongdou was not convinced and wanted to compete with Xu Hongmi, but she suffered a series of blows.
, but everything failed. It can be said that she has been living in the shadow of Xu Hongmi since she was a child. Later, Xu Hongmi went to the Magic City, and she went to the capital just to avoid interacting with Xu Hongmi, so as not to be exposed again.
People use it for comparison.
"Don't laugh, you still laugh." Xu Hongdou became a little angry and grabbed Qin Hao's face.
Qin Hao hugged her and fell directly onto the bed. Xu Hongdou screamed and subconsciously hugged Qin Hao's neck.
As a result, Qin Hao kissed her the next second.
"Woo~~~" Xu Hongdou struggled from the beginning to gradually lost and devoted, and soon the only sound left in the room was the rapid breathing of the two of them.
Qin Hao took advantage of the situation and turned over, pressing Xu Hongdou under him. He was about to make the next move, but as soon as he put his hand up, Xu Hongdou regained consciousness in an instant and bit Qin Hao's lips.
Helpless, Qin Hao had no choice but to let go of her.
"Don't get up yet." Xu Hongdou glared at Qin Hao fiercely.
Qin Hao stood up awkwardly: "It's all subconscious actions."
Xu Hongdou tidied up some of the scattered clothes and gave Qin Hao a sideways glance. However, she did not run away this time. Instead, she helped Qin Hao fold the clothes on the bed and put them in the suitcase.
"You don't have to go see my sister. She is usually very busy. When you come back, we can meet my parents via video together."
Qin Hao didn't speak or step forward to help. Instead, he leaned against the closet and looked at Xu Hongdou quietly.
As if feeling Qin Hao's gaze, or seeing Qin Hao's delay in responding, Xu Hongdou looked back, feeling ashamed and annoyed: "What are you looking at? I'll help you pack your things, and you just look at me like this.
"
Qin Hao hugged her directly: "It's nothing, I just suddenly felt very warm and at home."
Xu Hongdou's heart seemed to have been hit by something, and she hugged Qin Hao subconsciously, lying on his chest with her ear, listening to the sound of his heart beating, and slowly closed her eyes.
After a long time, Xu Hongdou raised his head from Qin Hao's arms and said, "Pack your clothes first. You have to catch a plane tomorrow morning."
"What should I do if I suddenly don't want to leave?" Qin Hao did not let go of Xu Hongdou.
Xu Hongdou rolled her eyes at him charmingly: "Don't make trouble, business is important."
Qin Hao then reluctantly let go of Xu Hongdou, and was about to help clean up together, but was pushed away by Xu Hongdou in disgust.
"Just go and get the toiletries ready. Look at how your clothes are folded. They are all weird. Also, this shirt needs to be stretched out with a hanger, otherwise it will be bunched up and you can't wear it."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
.......
Soon, Qin Hao and Xie Zhiyao took a car to Dali early in the morning.
Over at Youfeng Xiaoyuan, Xu Hongdou invited Damai and Ma Ye to the Gesanghua Restaurant for lunch at noon.
As a result, both Damai and Ma Ye looked absent-minded, which made the hotel proprietress very puzzled.
“What’s wrong with this dish?”
Xu Hongdou quickly explained to the proprietress: "There's nothing wrong with the food. It's just the two of them. They're a bit picky about food. If nothing happens, please go ahead."
After the landlady left in doubt, Damai sighed and said.
"It's over. My appetite has been fed by Brother Hao. If I eat food cooked by others, it will taste like wax. Sister Hongdou, do you think I won't starve to death in the future?"
Xu Hongdou was amused by her: "What nonsense are you talking about? A living person can starve himself to death. Eat it quickly. The boss's craftsmanship is actually pretty good. I've eaten it before."
Mr. Ma shook his head and said: "I have eaten it before, and I thought it was good at that time, but I am afraid of comparison in everything."
"Alas." Damai and Mr. Ma looked at each other and sighed heavily.
Xu Hongdou shook her head helplessly, and her thoughts drifted to the Magic City. This was the first time that she was so worried about a man other than her father.
In the next two days, Youfeng Xiaoyuan seemed to be back to the state it was in two months ago. It was deserted and deserted. Damai simply finished typing in the morning and went straight to sleep. He skipped breakfast and lunch, and Ma Ye started eating breakfast in the morning.
After breakfast, he sat down on the lounge chair, then walked motionless to lunch time, and continued in the afternoon. In Aunt Feng's words, this person was no different from dead.
Xu Hongdou was also a little unaccustomed to it. Fortunately, the management of small restaurants and online stores would consume some of her time, so she wouldn't feel uncomfortable.
During these two days, Xu Hongdou suddenly discovered that it seemed that when Qin Hao was away, his heart also flew away.
Although Qin Hao often sends messages and video calls to Xu Hongdou, Xu Hongdou always feels safe without him by her side, and even his little hooligan actions don't seem so abominable.
"Is this the legendary distance that creates beauty?"
Finally, on the third day, Qin Hao and Xie Zhiyao returned to Yunmiao Village.
Damai was the first to give Qin Hao a big hug warmly.
"Brother Hao, you are finally back. I miss you so much."
Qin Hao was amused and joked: "You are missing my cooking, right?"
"Hehe." Damai smiled sheepishly.
Just after Damai let go of Qin Hao, he turned around and found Xu Hongdou looking at them with a smile, and he was immediately busy explaining.
"Um, sister Hongdou, don't get me wrong, I just..."
Qin Hao rubbed Damai's already messy hair and said with a smile, "She's teasing you."
After saying that, he walked up to Xu Hongdou and stretched out his arms to hug her: "I haven't seen you for two days. I'm so bad at school that I even bullied Damai."
"Huh, that's the same as those who are close to the ink. I didn't learn it from you." Xu Hongdou snorted.
Damai was a little embarrassed and a little envious when he saw this. He came to the small kitchen and pretended to pour water to drink while keeping peeking.
Xu Hongdou leaned against Qin Hao's chest, smelling the familiar smell, and her breathing began to become heavy. After a long time, she murmured, "How is it? Are things going well at the B&B?"
"Well, it went very smoothly. The contract has been signed and I am now the owner of the B&B." Qin Hao hugged Xu Hongdou tightly and kissed her on the forehead.
"Are you thinner than before?"
"no?"
"Did you think what I thought?"
"I think I'm just trying to lose weight."
"Don't lose weight, I think the fleshy texture feels good."
"Ha, fleshy? You think I'm fat."
Just as the two were having an intimate bickering, an uninvited guest broke the warm atmosphere after their reunion.
Xie Zhiyao barged into the small courtyard in a disgraceful manner: "Old Qin, when do you think this B&B will...continue..."
"Ahem, sorry, I took the wrong step, please continue."
