In the age of rebirth, the toughest man who retired from marriage

Chapter 13 13 You are still the same you
·
Huo Xuan turned back to look at Xie Mingzhu, the expression on his face remained the same, but a faint light flashed in his eyes: "What?"

"You know what I'm talking about!"

Xie Mingzhu stared at him with a pair of dark eyes, without blinking.

From the moment he appeared here again to the time he beat Qin Haoyu angrily, she had already understood that Huo Xuan should have been reborn like her, with memories of his previous life, but she still stubbornly wanted to get the answer from him.

Seeing her like this, Huo Xuan couldn't help but raised his lips, and said with a chuckle, "Don't be too stubborn, yes or no, so what? I'm still me, the same me as usual."

My mind has never changed.

Xie Mingzhu lowered her eyes slightly, and said in a very low voice: "Yes, you are still you, but I am not me anymore."

Huo Xuan looked at the girl standing in front of him, and felt a dull pain in his heart.

Xie Mingzhu in the past was so full of energy, she was completely different from her current negative and decadent appearance.

Now, although her appearance is still the same as that of her in her 20s, her eyes have long since lost their luster.

Huo Xuan walked in front of her, looking at her with a pair of fiery eyes: "You are still you, no matter what you become, you are still that Xie Mingzhu."

Xie Mingzhu raised her head and looked at him in a daze.

"People have to look ahead, no matter what happened in the past, it's all in the past."

Xie Mingzhu didn't speak.

Huo Xuan curled his hands slightly, pondered for a moment, and then reached out and patted her head twice, "After today, put those unpleasant things behind you and welcome your new life."

Xie Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Seeing her nodding, Huo Xuan asked with a smile, "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it for you now."

Xie Mingzhu sniffed: "I want to eat your scallion pancakes."

As he spoke, he pursed his lips, "I've thought about it for a long time."

Huo Xuan's mother has good cooking skills, so he is also very good at cooking like his mother.

The scallion pancakes he made were something Xie Mingzhu never forgot.

The ones sold outside will never taste the way he made them.

When Huo Xuan heard her words, he raised his lips and smiled, "Okay, then let's cook some millet porridge tonight, shall we?"

Xie Mingzhu nodded.

"Then go in and rest for a while, I'm going to prepare dinner now, and I'll call you when the meal is ready." Huo Xuan continued.

Cooking is really not Xie Mingzhu's strong point, so she said, "I'll clean up the dormitory next door for you."

As Huo Xuan walked into the kitchen, he raised his voice and said, "Leave me to collect it later."

Xie Mingzhu didn't listen to him, fetched a basin of water, took a rag and a broom and went to the dormitory next door.

Now that there are no educated youths in the brigade, it should be no problem for Huo Xuan to live here temporarily.

There is only a thin layer of dust in the room, just wipe it off with a damp cloth.

It was already an hour after the room was cleaned up.

The room was tidy and tidy.

Turning her gaze around, she realized that the room was empty, except for the bed, the table and the cabinet were all empty.

It was only then that she remembered that she didn't seem to have seen Huo Xuan's luggage.

She wanted to go out and ask, but as soon as she went out with a basin, Huo Xuan came in.

Because of cooking, he took off his outer coat and wore white short sleeves.

The loose short sleeves couldn't hide his strong muscles.

Xie Mingzhu quickly withdrew her gaze, turned her head to look behind her, and asked aloud, "Why don't you see your luggage?"

Huo Xuan shrugged: "Forgot."

In fact, it’s not that he forgot to bring his luggage. He did bring his luggage. It’s just that he kept thinking about coming here quickly to prevent Xie Mingzhu and Qin Haoyu from getting married. His mind was full of these things. When he got off the train, he was in a hurry. Just forget about the luggage.

It's just that he was embarrassed to tell Xie Mingzhu about such a shameful thing.

Xie Mingzhu frowned, looked him up and down, and said softly, "Although the weather outside is not so hot, you can't wear this dress every day, can you?"

It's already May outside now, and although the weather in the countryside is not that hot yet, no matter how hot it is, the temperature is already over 20 degrees, and a piece of clothing should be rotten after wearing it for two days.

Hearing what she said, he subconsciously took two steps back, then lowered his head slightly, and sniffed his nose, wanting to smell his body.

After all, after he got off the bus at the commune station yesterday, he ran all the way here, so he was naturally sweating all over his body.

I didn't wash it last night...

Thinking of this, he hurried outside again: "I'm going to buy two clothes before it's dark."

As she spoke, before Xie Mingzhu could say anything, there was no one left.

Xie Mingzhu sighed helplessly, ran out the door quickly, and called out to him: "Come back!"

Huo Xuan had already picked up his bicycle and was about to go out. When he saw her calling him, he stopped again: "Is there anything you want me to bring back?"

"You come back first, I have clothes here." Xie Mingzhu said again.

When Huo Xuan heard her words, he only thought that she wanted to wear her own clothes, and quickly shook his head and said, "I can't wear your clothes!"

Xie Mingzhu stood where she was, and rolled her eyes helplessly.

"Who said I want to wear my clothes for you?" Xie Mingzhu said with blank eyes, "You come in first."

Seeing this, Huo Xuan had no choice but to brace his bicycle and follow her into the house.

Inside the house, Xie Mingzhu's dowry has been piled up inside.

Among them is a mahogany box, which is the bottom of the legendary press box. Every married girl here has such a big wooden box.

Xie Mingzhu opened it, and there were clothes inside.

It was neatly folded, with women's clothing in half and men's clothing in the other half.

Huo Xuan looked at the neatly arranged clothes, indicating that their owners used to be a couple, and his mood sank to the bottom inexplicably.

Xie Mingzhu rummaged through the clothes, but didn't notice his emotions, and just said: "My aunt Xin prepared these for Qin Haoyu, and I don't need them now. If you don't mind, please wear them for now."

Aunt Xin is her adoptive mother.

Ten years ago, her father was arrested for some (unexplainable) reasons. In order not to implicate her, she was sent to the home of her father's comrades overnight at the age of ten.

They have been her adoptive parents ever since.

Her father told her that when people asked about her parents in the future, they would say that her adoptive parents were her parents.

The adoptive parents are kind and take good care of her. Although the life at home is not rich, they still give her a good life as much as possible.

She is also very grateful to her adoptive parents.
