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

Chapter 33: Chapter 33

Huo Xuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips when he saw her solemn look on the skirt.

With a light cough, he stepped into the room.

Xie Mingzhu stood up from the ground, patted the dust off her body, and then said: "The clothes fell under the bed."

Huo Xuan didn't say anything, and the two of them cleaned up the messy room together.

Once the room was tidied up, there was still a lot of space left.

Xie Mingzhu looked at the vacant space, turned her head and said to Huo Xuan, "Otherwise, we will carry the bed inside, and save you from sleeping in a room with air leakage."

In the room next door, more than half of it was broken, it was no different from sleeping in the open air.

The main reason is that the quilts in that room were all wet, otherwise it might be okay to last all night.

Huo Xuan shook his head and was about to refuse.

But turning around to see the expression on Xie Mingzhu's face, she swallowed the words again, and nodded with a light smile.

Together, the two moved the bed that was still hanging outside to the room.

Originally, Xie Mingzhu was going to give him one of her mattresses, but she heard him laughing and saying: "You are so afraid of the cold, you should be cold at night if you give me the mattress."

Seeing his insistence, Xie Mingzhu only gave him a blanket.

"Just laugh secretly! If it weren't for the fact that tonight is not as cold as yesterday, you wouldn't even get this blanket." Xie Mingzhu laughed.

After hearing her words, Huo Xuan also laughed.

After washing up, the two lay down on their respective beds.

"I estimate that I will receive your father's letter within two days. I will get up early tomorrow to buy the train ticket."

The distance to Shencheng was not too close, and he had to spend the night on the train, so he wanted to buy two soft sleeper tickets.

Soft sleeper tickets naturally need to be bought in advance, otherwise they will not be available.

Moreover, not everyone can buy a soft sleeper ticket. Huo Xuan has an old classmate who is now working in the Ministry of Railways and is also a small cadre. He wants to go and see if he can buy a family ticket.

Xie Mingzhu turned her head to look in his direction, and asked aloud: "I still don't know when I can go back. If you bought it early, wouldn't the ticket be in vain?"

Huo Xuan said softly: "I estimate that these two days should not exceed the next week, so I will buy tickets for next week first."

If it doesn't work then, go back.

Xie Mingzhu nodded and said nothing more.

The two stopped talking and soon fell asleep.

Huo Xuan turned his head to look over, and only vaguely saw the outline of Xie Mingzhu.

The feeling of being filled in the heart is really good.

Huo Xuan also closed his eyes.

When Xie Mingzhu woke up the next morning, Huo Xuan had already woken up and was cooking breakfast in the kitchen.

After accepting the lesson of the previous few days, he didn't dare to leave Xie Mingzhu here while she was sleeping, and only waited for her to wake up before leaving.

After breakfast, he got on his bicycle and went out.

Ready to go to the county railway station to buy tickets.

After he left, Xie Mingzhu began to pack the things she wanted to take away.

After all, I have lived here for several years, and there are still many things.

She prepared to give away some unnecessary items, and prepared to send the items that could not be taken away to the freight station for consignment.

After packing up, it was already afternoon.

Sensing her stomach growling, she went to the kitchen to order a bowl of noodles and took a bite.

During the meal, the team leader called someone to call her and asked why she hadn't gone to work for several days.

Xie Mingzhu is still a person here, and her household registration and food relations have not been removed for a day, and she is still a person here. Even if she does not work, she will be able to share the rations, so naturally she must be asked to work.

Xie Mingzhu directly rejected the person who asked her to go to work, only saying that she was not feeling well these days and didn't want to go for the time being.

The visitor looked her up and down, saw that her complexion was rosy, and her complexion was even better than hers, so he couldn't help muttering a few words: "You see, how can you have such lazy thoughts when you are young? You didn't work when you were young. , when are you waiting to work?"

Xie Mingzhu broke up with her impatiently, and only said that she still had something to do and asked her to leave.

Seeing her stubbornness, the visitor only said: "I will tell the captain clearly!"

Xie Mingzhu didn't care.

After the visitor had left, Xie Mingzhu went to the brigade headquarters, wanting to ask if the postman had come over these days.

The postman does not come under normal circumstances, only when there is a letter.

Letters from the educated youth point were usually sent to the brigade headquarters.

After I went to the brigade to inquire, I realized that the postman hadn't been here for the past two days.

With a sigh of relief, she turned around and went back.

While cleaning the room, I heard a voice calling from outside: "Huo Xuan? Xie Mingzhu? Are you there?"

Xie Mingzhu frowned, opened the curtain and looked outside, and saw Zhu Zhenghao standing at the gate of the yard with a vegetable basket in one hand and a wine bottle in the other, looking around.

Xie Mingzhu put down the curtain in her hand, not going to pay attention to him.

Zhu Zhenghao in the yard muttered, "Aren't you at home?"

After muttering, he walked outside.

Xie Mingzhu looked out from the crack of the curtain, thinking that he was about to leave, but he didn't realize that he was just sitting on the steps of the door.

It looked like they were going to wait for them to come back.

Xie Mingzhu couldn't help exhaling.

After thinking about it, he opened the door and went outside.

Zhu Zhenghao heard a voice behind him and turned his head to look over.

Seeing Xie Mingzhu standing at the door of the room, a smile immediately appeared on his face: "Xie Mingzhu, are you there? Why didn't you answer when I called you just now? I thought you weren't here!"

After speaking, he looked to the side and asked again, "Where is Huo Xuan?"

Xie Mingzhu didn't answer his question, but asked indifferently: "What's the matter with you?"

As if Zhu Zhenghao didn't hear the alienation in her words, he raised the vegetable basket and the wine bottle in his hands, and said with a smile: "Didn't I get a good bottle of wine? It's been a long time since I got together with you, He came to the door with food and wine."

After a pause, looking at Xie Mingzhu's uneasy expression, he deliberately asked: "At any rate, I've been an educated youth comrade for so many years, won't you not welcome me?"

This kind of questioning, if it is appointed by ordinary people, it is too embarrassing to refuse, and let people come in directly.

It's just that Xie Mingzhu didn't want to make false claims with him, so she just nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Huo Xuan is not here now, I'm a lesbian, so it's inconvenient to entertain you."

The three big characters "not welcome" were barely written on Xie Mingzhu's face.

If it was an ordinary person, they would immediately understand and bid farewell.

However, Zhu Zhenghao is not an ordinary person.
