Chapter 120 It's Not Time

Linglong's body covered in homespun clothes slowly approached the courtyard gate, and Tian Qiaozhen, carrying a bamboo basket in her hand, stepped into the courtyard of Wang Manyin's house, with a faint smile on her lips all the time.

"Man Yin." Tian Qiaozhen greeted Wang Manyin respectfully, and was surprised to find that Chen Minghao was there, so she also nodded and called Haozi.

"Hey, cough, sister Qiaozhen." Chen Minghao's dark face turned dark red instantly, he was a little at a loss for a while, he wanted to get up and leave, but he couldn't bear to refuse to stay in the same yard with Tian Qiaozhen.

Wang Manyin smiled and said, "Dahai, go get your Aunt Tian a stool, and bring out some peach cakes as well."

Dahai responded, and hurried inside to get a bench and prepare snacks.

"Dahai, don't listen to your godfather, I don't eat these things." Tian Qiaozhen hurriedly shouted inside, but Dahai only listened to his godfather at all.

"Sister Qiaozhen, come and sit down, but it's rare to see you come to me." Lan Hua greeted warmly.

Tian Qiaozhen smiled, handed over the bamboo basket in her hand, and said, "The few tomatoes grown at home, last time I heard you said you wanted to eat them, so I picked some for you."

Lan Hua took a look and was even happier, "Sister Qiaozhen really troubled you, it's all because of me, a dead man, who actually forgot to buy a few tomato seedlings, there is not a single tomato in the field this year."

Wang Manyin touched his nose, pretending not to hear, and continued to carve the wood in his hand, logically speaking, he should be in charge of the field affairs.

Tian Qiaozhen smiled and didn't care, and asked concerned: "Lanhua, how are you, is the child making a fuss?"

"But you don't know if it's noisy." Lan Hua complained, "I will definitely be a noisy kid in the future, and I don't know how naughty it is."

As she spoke, there was a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, and she gently stroked her stomach with her hands.

The two women began to talk small things, and the more they chatted, the more speculative they became. However, Chen Minghao, who was at the side, was a little embarrassed, and didn't know whether to leave or stay.

He was too embarrassed to speak even if he was left behind, which made him even more embarrassed.

Fortunately, Tian Qiaozhen is a careful person, so she asked him incidentally, "How is Haozi's family, how is Madam?"

Chen Ming nodded stiffly, "Okay, everything is fine, I ate well recently, and my bones have improved a lot."

Consciously or unintentionally, he wanted to show off his family situation.

Tian Qiaozhen was also a little surprised. He also knew something about the situation in Chen Minghao's family.

But she is not a nosy person, she said with a smile: "That's good, usually if you need sister's help, just say it."

As she spoke, she brushed the hair from her forehead behind her ears, but Chen Minghao was stunned by this simple movement, and he remembered the white flowers that night again.

"Ahem." Wang Manyin coughed twice, signaling him not to be so blatant.

Chen Minghao came back to his senses, his face turned even redder, and he wanted to take the initiative to find a topic to get closer, but he didn't know what to say.

Lan Hua looked at him anxiously, then looked at Tian Qiaozhen again, felt something vaguely, and immediately asked with a smile: "Hao Zi, you are about the same age as Man Yin, why haven't you asked for a aunt?"

Tian Qiaozhen also looked at him curiously, "Yes, Haozi, you are also old, do you need sister to introduce you?"

Chen Minghao hurriedly waved his hands, "No need for sister Qiaozhen, I have someone in my heart."

Tian Qiaozhen became more interested, "Which family's girl, tell me, I will give you a staff officer, and build a bridge for you."

"It's something that hasn't been written yet." Chen Minghao hesitated and couldn't speak.

Tian Qiaozhen didn't force him either. Although they were neighbors, they were not very close, so they didn't ask.

Turning to look at Wang Manyin, he asked, "What is Manyin doing?"

"Ah, here it is, chopping wood for fun." Wang Manyin replied casually.

Tian Qiaozhen looked at the wood that was about to take shape in his hand, "Tsk, I don't think it's just for fun, it's a real skill, a piece of wood can be played with flowers."

Wang Manyin blew on the wood in his hand and smiled, "Sister Qiaozhen, do you know who I carved?"

"Who else but orchids." She replied without thinking.

"Really? Man Yin, you carved me?" Lan Hua said in surprise when she heard this, holding the half-finished wood and examining it carefully.

When I looked at it, I found that there was really my own silver on it. Although there was only a general outline, the hair was already obvious.

Wang Manyin took back the wood and continued to carve, and said as a matter of course: "Who will you carve if I don't carve?"

Lanhua laughed, looking at the piece of wood, she was full of love, which woman would not like this kind of gift.

Everyone chatted for a while, Chen Minghao saw that the time was almost up, so he offered to leave, Tian Qiaozhen also stood up and said that he wanted to leave, and the two left together.

Walking on the road, Chen Minghao felt that his legs were a little uncoordinated, and forced his eyes to ignore the beautiful woman next to him.

The setting sun has long since disappeared, but the sky is still bright. The evening wind slowly takes away the heat from the ground, and wisps of cooking smoke rise in Guanzi Village.

On the dirt path, the two walked together, always giving Chen Minghao some ambiguous thoughts.

Tian Qiaozhen didn't think too much, she just treated Chen Minghao as a younger brother next door.

She asked Chen Minghao again who the girl he liked, and she could go and talk to him.

Chen Minghao naturally refused, and then couldn't help asking: "Sister Qiaozhen, brother Yang has been gone for so long, you don't want to find another one?"

Tian Qiaozhen was silent, Chen Minghao thought he had said something wrong, and immediately admitted his mistake, saying that he said something he shouldn't have said.

Tian Qiaozhen shook her head and sighed, "Hao Zi, don't think too much, it's been so long, sister has already thought about it, it's no big deal."

"As for what you said about finding another man again, don't you think that any family is willing to find a broom star who has a child and returns Kefu?"

Her tone was a little mocking. In the rural areas of this era, patriarchy is still strong. After Papa Yang died, those gossiping people in the village said that she was Kefu, a bastard.

Her words are terrible, many people are unwilling to associate with her, and those women are even more jealous of her beauty, and are afraid that their men will be hooked up, so she actually lives very hard.

That is to say, in the last two months, she got to know Lan Hua, and the two have similar personalities, and this is why they have become a good friend. They will share any good things on weekdays, such as sending some tomatoes grown in the field.

When Chen Minghao heard Tian Qiaozhen's words, an impulse surged up in his heart, which almost made him blurt out that he was willing, but his rationality swallowed the words back into his stomach.

Now is not the time.
