Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 22 Unexpected Ambiguity

She didn't ignore the word "later" in his mouth.

In the past few days, he had only planned for her.

Since she took the initiative to confess her love the night before, he seemed to have gained a touch of familiar intimacy, such as the unprecedented joke earlier and the considerate promise just now.

These are all good signs!
Xue Ling felt very happy and ate happily.

"Brother Yuan, this cabbage heart is so crispy! It's delicious!" She nibbled on one, quickly picked another one on the plate, and quickly gave it to Cheng Tianyuan.

Cheng Tianyuan had just swallowed the steamed buns when he was unexpectedly approached by her. He instinctively leaned down and ate the cabbage sum in one bite, tapping her chopsticks with his teeth.

Forehead?
Is she feeding herself? !

After reacting, his ears turned slightly red and he quickly took a big mouthful of steamed buns.

"...Hmm, very sweet...delicious."

Xue Ling chuckled, pretending not to notice his embarrassment, and nodded in agreement: "If it's delicious, eat more."

The two had a great time dining together for the first time in their new home.

After eating, Cheng Tianyuan cleared the table and took the initiative to take the dishes and wash them.

Xue Ling was embarrassed, chuckled and whispered: "You cooked the rice. If you don't have to wash the bowls anymore, I'll do it."

Cheng Tianyuan shook his head and said: "I've already packed it up, it's okay. You've been very tired these past two days, so sit down and rest for a while. It's just a few bowls, it's not difficult."

Although he was born in a rural area, and in other families the male head of the household was the male head and the female head of the household, and women were mainly responsible for the household chores, his family was different.

Since my father's arm happened, my mother has to take care of herself both inside and outside.

He was afraid that his mother would be too tired, so he had been rushing to do housework since he was a child.

In his opinion, no matter how big or small the work at home is, you can do it if you can help, and there should be no distinction between men and women.

Xue Ling stepped forward and said, "How about you wash the dishes and I'll be responsible for wiping them."

Cheng Tianyuan washed the clothes skillfully and neatly, and said without raising his head: "Why don't you go up and have a rest? The window in the living room is very windy and it's very cool."

"No." Xue Ling muttered with a smile, "I want to stay here with you."

Cheng Tianyuan's eyes moved slightly, and he handed her a washed bowl. He also washed a half-worn rag a few times and handed it to her again.

"Be careful, don't fall."

The lights in the kitchen were a little dim, and he had no light behind him. Xue Ling couldn't see his specific expression, but he was smiling when he spoke, and his voice was not as cold as usual, low and soft, with a hint of joy. The magnetism is very nice.

She quickly responded cheerfully: "Hey! Got it!"

After a bowl was washed, he handed it over.

She took it, quickly wiped away the water droplets, and set the bowl aside on the new basket.

Although the two of them had not done anything together yet, they cooperated very well. Every time they came and went, the time was very accurate. He was fast and she was not slow either. The dishes and chopsticks were washed and dried quickly.

Cheng Tianyuan closed the vent under the briquette stove tightly, extinguished most of the fire, then lifted up the boiled kettle and poured it into the hot water kettle.

"It's all ready, let's go upstairs. The water in this hot water bottle is enough for us to drink at night, so there's no need to come down."

Xue Ling nodded and asked, "Are the courtyards outside closed?"

Cheng Tianyuan replied: "It's all closed before eating."

The two of them went upstairs one after another and came to the small living room.

Cheng Tianyuan pointed to the window and explained: "The one on the left is a little crooked. I'll find some tools to fix it tomorrow. It's autumn now, and the wind is strong in the morning and evening, so the windows must not leak." "Yes." She nodded.

Cheng Tianyuan added: "The toilet on the first floor also has a small window. Although it faces a blind corner and no one walks around, if the wind is too strong in winter, it will be cold when taking a bath. I will find a thick cotton cloth tomorrow for taking a bath." When you pull it up, you won’t be afraid of the cold wind getting in.”

Xue Ling nodded "Oh."

She had never thought of these little details, but he had already discovered them and had even prepared a solution.

This gap is really big!

Cheng Tianyuan asked again: "Is there anything else you haven't done in the house?"

Xue Ling suddenly remembered something and said quickly: "The drawer of the small desk is broken, both of them are broken. I wanted to put some soft things in it earlier, but neither of them can be used."

He stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."

Cheng Tianyuan is an all-rounder in the supply and marketing cooperative. He can do everything from accounting for incoming and outgoing goods to cleaning and watering.

The supply and marketing cooperative sells all kinds of groceries, and there is a lot of repair and installation work. Cheng Tianyuan has been working at the supply and marketing cooperative for several years, and he has become half a master technician.

He quickly removed the drawer, twisted it around, broke apart the twisted iron pieces, pressed it a few times and pressed it hard, and quickly reinstalled it.

"This one is already fine, but the other one is a little troublesome."

Xue Ling was packing her clothes, and when she heard what he said, she smiled and said, "Don't be in a hurry, just take your time to repair it."

Cheng Tianyuan squatted on the ground, reminding her while tinkering.

"We need to quickly change the locks on the outer door and the inside. You just said that you need to put soft things away, so don't put them in a hurry. By the way, if you want to put them in the future, they have to be opened. Don't leave them in one place."

"Okay!"

Cheng Tianyuan saw her wrinkled little face and pouted, looking cute and helpless, and smiled with the corners of her mouth raised, revealing a few white teeth.

"If you run out of money, make it as soon as possible. Why worry! Come here and help me hold the nail head outside."

Xue Ling quickly threw the nylon shirt in his hand on the bed and leaned over.

"Here it comes! Where to pinch?"

Cheng Tianyuan turned his tall and muscular body sideways and pointed at a nail head covered with patina.

"Here, you hold it on the outside and I'll tighten it on the back so it doesn't come loose."

Xue Ling understood, stretched out his right hand, and squeezed it hard.

Cheng Tianyuan held down the drawer with one hand and tightened the screws with the other hand, with strong and powerful movements.

Xue Ling intuitively felt that the nail head in his hand had moved. He was startled and hurriedly rushed forward to hold it down.

"ah?!"

The two of them were very close to each other, but she suddenly rushed forward and threw herself into Cheng Tianyuan's arms!
He was busy tightening the screws, and he was half-crouching. He was suddenly rushed by her, and he couldn't stabilize his body and fell down!
However, he reacted quickly and hugged Xue Ling the moment he fell, instinctively protecting her in his arms.

In a daze, he only felt a sweet fragrance passing by the tip of his nose, and the delicate body in his arms was soft and soft, sticking to his strong chest, snuggling close to him.

Keren'er swooped down, bumped into his shoulder, and kissed his neck with her soft and wet lips!

Time stood still at that moment!

With the fragrant body in his arms and the wet heat on his neck, Cheng Tianyuan felt as if his mind was exploding with a "boom". The heat was rising all over his body, and his heart was beating wildly, as if it was about to jump out of his throat!
