Lu family's daughter-in-law

Chapter 68
The eldest uncle and aunt were not at home, and Da Zhuang's family next door also went to the Liu's house in the south of the village to watch the fun. Hearing the persistent knocking on the back door, Ning Xiang suddenly became a little scared.

She put away the sewing basket, stood up quietly, and held the door of the north door of the kitchen defensively with one hand, and asked softly, "Who is it?"

"I."

The deep and powerful word came from Lu Cheng's voice.

Ning Xiang's defense suddenly turned into nervousness.

The Liu family had a happy event today, almost every household went out to watch the fun, the streets must be full of people, how dare he choose to come today?
Annoyed at his recklessness, Ning Xiang frowned, and before she could speak, the man outside the door seemed impatient and knocked again.

Knowing that she should be the only one left among the four families on this street, Ning Xiang still felt guilty, walked quickly to the back door, and softly reprimanded: "Why are you here again, hurry up, don't let people see."

A door apart.

Hearing her voice like chasing out creditors, Lu Cheng said helplessly, "Xiang'er, we haven't seen each other for almost ten days."

He knew that only he was hot, and she wished that he would never come.

The thin and suitable lips were tightly pursed, because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they began to think wildly again.

But this time Lu Cheng wronged Ningxiang. Ningxiang knew very well that the two hadn't seen each other for a few days, and it was not because she didn't want to. People find out that rumors are spreading.Didn't hear the slight grievance in the man's words, Ning Xiang lowered her head to reason with him, "It's only been ten days, when I haven't redeemed myself, you..."

He can bear seeing him once a month, so what is ten days?
"At that time, you were working in the Hou's Mansion. I was afraid that I would go to you and cause trouble for you." Lu Cheng replied in a low voice, otherwise he would still go to her even if it was forty miles away.

Knowing what she was worried about, Lu Cheng moved a little closer to the old wooden board, and almost put his face on it, and said softly: "Xiang'er, I came to Liu's house for a wedding today, and I saw that uncles and aunts were all there. , I dared to come to you when I knew you were at home because you were not here. And I came around from the back of the village to ensure that no one would see you. Open the door quickly? I am thirsty and want to drink water."

Very honest and kind.

Ning Xiang was not stupid, she looked through the kitchen room and looked at the open door in front, but she still didn't want to let him in, and persuaded again: "Since you are here for the wedding, you should go back early, lest people have to look for you before the banquet."

"It's still early for the banquet. I'm from another village. Who else is looking for me except Uncle Liu? Even Uncle Liu doesn't have time to take care of me right now." Lu Cheng stared at the door panel in front of him, which couldn't bear his kick, and begged for the last time. She said, "Xiang'er open the door, I'll leave after sitting down for a while."

If he didn't open it again, he climbed over the wall and entered.

He is pitiful, Ning Xiang, who is familiar with his stalking, finally compromised, looked at the front door, and said in a low voice: "Then you hide first, I will open the front door for you after I close it."

After coaxing it well, Lu Cheng hurriedly hummed.

Ningxiang glanced at the door panel, and walked towards the front door in a panic. For a while, she felt that she had made a mistake and shouldn't agree to him, and for a while, she felt that it was not easy for Lu Cheng to come here after all his efforts, and he was not allowed to enter when he was in front of his house. It seemed too unkind to him.Just like this, she came to the south courtyard swaying from side to side, and the moment her hand touched the door panel of the south gate to close, Ning Xiang's face turned red.

She actually wanted to have a private meeting with him at her own home.

The little girl was uneasy, and when she walked back, her steps were like snails.

After entering the kitchen, he also closed the south door of the kitchen with a guilty conscience.

The sun was blocked, and the kitchen room instantly darkened, but the sun was still shining brightly outside the north gate on the other side.Ning Xiang cast her eyes over it, hesitated for a moment, and mustered up the courage to walk north.Unexpectedly, she stepped over the threshold of the north gate, and suddenly a big hand stretched out beside her and dragged her down. Ningxiang screamed "ah", and her mouth was quickly covered.

"It's me." Lu Cheng trapped her between him and the wall, lowered his head and complained to her, "Why are you so slow? I was afraid of being seen, so I had no choice but to climb over the wall and come in." When he spoke, he put down his big hand that covered her mouth, He wrapped his arms around her waist very naturally.

Even when Ning Xiang was happy, she wouldn't let him move his hands and feet, let alone now that she was annoyed at him to scare people, she pushed him out and scolded him with a frown, "Touch me again, and leave immediately!"

She agreed to let him in because she couldn't bear him to come here for nothing, not to be bullied by him, even if she was willing to marry him, Ningxiang didn't want to let him do whatever she wanted before getting married, making him think that the girl from the Xu family was frivolous and not self-respecting.

The little girl was really angry, her almond eyes stared at the ground indifferently, her red lips were tightly pursed, and her face turned away from others.

Lu Cheng just hugged her just to scare her, and he started to feel distracted when he hugged her slender waist. Seeing that she was angry now, he immediately stopped, and apologized solemnly: "Xiang'er, don't get me wrong, I just want to To scare you, you, don’t think of me so badly, if you don’t like it, I won’t do it.”

Ningxiang looked at his feet, and thought of the coercion in the woods, of him sucking her neck by the chicken coop, and of his secretly grabbing her hand in the market, so no matter how sincere he said, she didn't believe her, Walking to the side of the north gate, he said towards the inside: "Go and drink water, and go back quickly after drinking."

Seeing and seeing, hugging and hugging, he should be satisfied.

Lu Cheng was not satisfied at all, she hadn't smiled at him yet.

But who made him dishonest?

Obediently go to the kitchen to drink water first, secretly glanced at her while drinking, and turned away when she saw her looking this way, Lu Cheng sighed silently in his heart.She is too thin-skinned, he really can't be too impatient.

"Making new clothes for Amu?" After drinking the water, before she tilted her head to look into the kitchen, Lu Cheng quietly and quickly picked up a small bench and sat opposite Ningxiang's sewing basket. The boy's clothes on the bench looked closely, the dark gray clothes were only half sewn.

"You pricked your hand carefully." Ning Xiang couldn't help reminding him when she saw his big hand flicking clumsily.

Lu Cheng turned his head to look at her, smiling with deep peach blossom eyes, "Finally you still miss me, you have been cold just now, I thought you were going to change your mind."

He complained to her tactfully, Ning Xiang realized that she seemed to be a little cold to him, and couldn't help being a little embarrassed. Just as she didn't know how to answer him, she saw Lu Cheng arranging her younger brother's clothes, pinching the cloth with one hand, and threading the needle with the other, and sewed up.

Ning Xiang stared at his big hands in shock.Most of the girls' hands are small and clean, and they are very delicate when they bow their heads to do needlework. However, the same job falls into Lu Cheng's hands. Although his big wheat-yellow hands are slender and beautiful, the posture of pinching the needle and holding the cloth has nothing to do with being delicate. How do you look at it? All clumsy.

Just when Ning Xiang thought that he was playful and deliberately trying to stop him, she finally saw his expression.

The pair of peach blossom eyes that made her heart beat faster every time she looked at them, now focused on looking at the clothes in her hand, with long eyelashes drooping, they were even more beautiful than her younger brother's.The majestic and scary handsome face when he was angry, now only remains calm, doing the girl's work in a calm manner.Ning Xiang's gaze moved to his hand again, and she saw that the stitches were fine and neat, completely different from the roughness shown in his big wheat yellow hands.

"You, can you sew clothes?" Ning Xiang asked in surprise after being stunned for a long time.

Without raising his head, Lu Cheng said: "I can do laundry and cooking, except for having children, I can do everything you can do."

His mother died young, and his younger brothers and sisters were young. Although the second aunt often helped out, but the second aunt also had three children at home, he couldn't afford to send his younger brothers and sisters to the second aunt for her to mend when their clothes were torn.At first Lu Cheng didn't know how to do it, but he knew how to learn. When his second aunt was doing needlework, he paid attention to it, and after going home and practicing it, he would be able to.

Lu Cheng learned everything from cooking and cooking, including taking care of children, and he taught his second brother after he learned it. He went outside to earn money to support his family.

He was doing meticulous work, talking witty and intimate words, Ning Xiang's guard against him gradually faded, and she walked to the door and said: "Let's put it down, I will sew it myself, the table is about to start over there, you..."

"Sit down, I have something to tell you." Lu Cheng pointed to the small bench opposite and raised his head.

He looked serious, as if he had something important to do, Ning Xiang didn't know whether she believed his words or was afraid of his talking eyes, she hesitated for a moment, then slowly sat down opposite him, staring at the clothes in his hand.

"They all went to watch the fun, why didn't you go?" Lu Cheng asked puzzled.

Ning Xiang raised her head in astonishment, is this what he wants to say?
Lu Cheng looked at her slightly resentfully, "I went in and out of Liu's house three times, looking for you all the time, I was sure that you really didn't go, so I started to worry if you were sick, there are so many people, it's hard to talk to Qiu'er, I had no choice but to sneak over to find you."

He had really been looking for her for a long time, and it was rare that he could see her openly, but she didn't show up.

"Did you know I would come and hide from me on purpose?" Lu Cheng put the clothes into the sewing basket and asked while staring at her.

"No, I didn't know you would come." Ning Xiang was sincerely wronged, and immediately explained, her almond eyes glanced outside, "I feel that I have been away from home for more than three years, and I have become estranged from the villagers. When I go out, they all stare at me. It was like looking at people from other villages, I, I felt awkward, so I didn't go."

Lu Cheng immediately thought of the group of old and young men inside and outside Liu's courtyard, nodded and said: "Well, there is really nothing to see, just stay at home." The less people see his delicate and beautiful daughter-in-law, the better.

He no longer doubted, Ning Xiang relaxed.

"Anan misses you. I'll ask his aunts to bring him over to find you tomorrow?" Seeing the girl on the opposite side bit her red lips lightly, Lu Cheng added, "I won't come, June and July." The orchard is the busiest, and I probably don't have time to come to you recently."

As he spoke, he took out a green fruit the size of Amu's fist from his cuff and handed it to her, "It's edible, but it's a bit sour. I'm afraid people will see it, so I only took one, and I will give some to Auntie Amu and the others to taste when I have a chance. .”

Ningxiang misunderstood, thinking that he was afraid of being discovered when he came out of the orchard, and worried: "Did you pick it secretly?"

Her almond eyes were wide open, as if it was such a sensational thing to steal a fruit.

A timid girl.

Lu Cheng looked at her and smiled, "Where did you think it was? It rained two days ago, and some fruits fell on the ground. The Wu family doesn't want this kind of fruit. I picked up a basket and took it home. I mean, I'm afraid I'm going to visit Liu's house with sha fruits. Be seen by others, otherwise I will bring one to Amu."

The plump fruit is not easy to hide, and she insists on sneaking it, so that he can't give it openly.

Misunderstood that he was stealing, Ning Xiang blushed, stretched out her hand to pick up the fruit, stretched halfway, remembering his tricks, Ning Xiang immediately withdrew her hand, but didn't know what to do next.

Let him put it on the ground and she picks it up again?
This defense is too obvious.

The little girl's eyelashes kept trembling, Lu Cheng stuffed the fruit into her arms amusedly, then withdrew his hand in time and said, "Eat it, I've washed it, I'll leave after you finish eating."

Ningxiang originally wanted to leave it to her younger brother, but after hearing what he said, she thought about it, got up and said, "I can't finish eating, let's each have half."

Lu Cheng raised his hand to stop her, motioning her to sit down, "Eat by yourself, I eat almost every day, I'm tired of eating."

Ning Xiang had no choice but to sit opposite him again, and when she noticed that he was staring straight at her, she turned her head with a blushing face and took a light bite.

"I stole this, and picked it from the tree specially for you." Looking at the small tooth marks she left on the fruit, Lu Cheng laughed.

Ning Xiang's complexion changed.

Lu Cheng laughed lowly, "The ones who lied to you were all picked up under the tree."

He was not serious, Ning Xiang glared at him faintly, then simply turned to the north, and ate him sideways.

"Do you really believe it?" Lu Cheng lifted his buttocks and moved to the north threshold, and continued to stare at her face, leaning his back lazily against the door, his eyes drooping due to the height difference, and a teasing smile on his lips, No matter how you look at it.

Ning Xiang suddenly didn't want to eat it, it had nothing to do with the "innocence" of the fruit, it was just annoyed at his teasing.

Seeing that she remembered, Lu Cheng was anxious to press her shoulder.

"You sit!" Ning Xiang stared at his big paws that came closer and reprimanded.

Lu Cheng immediately retreated back obediently, and coaxed softly: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore, I did pick this from the tree, but there are so many fruits, it's hard to tell if one is missing, and my master doesn't care too much." I picked it up, I learned it from him, you don’t have to take it to heart.”

Ning Xiang pursed her lips, looked down at the fruit, "No more picking from the tree."

Although he wanted to give her good fruit.

The fruit was indeed sour, but when he thought of her when he picked the fruit, Ning Xiang felt that the tip of his tongue was full of sweetness.

Without looking at him again, she shyly ate small bites in front of his face for him to see.

He misses her so much, show him more, and when he has seen enough, he will be able to be more honest and work with peace of mind.

However, the little girl's kind man didn't appreciate it, Ningxiang had only eaten half of the fruit, and he snatched the fruit suddenly, like a monkey, grabbed the fruit and jumped out of the door, the action was so neat and done in one go.

Ning Xiang stood up in disbelief.

"If you don't give me a kiss, I can only satisfy my hunger like this." Lu Cheng pinched the fruit with his thumb and index finger, and deliberately kissed the place where she had eaten.

Ning Xiang's ears were red, and she walked out in anger.

Lu Cheng thought that his sweetheart was coming to grab the fruit, so he retreated unexpectedly, but Ning Xiang just grabbed the door handle and closed the door with a "bang".

"You hurry up!"

The little girl's embarrassing voice came through the door.

Lu Cheng walked over with a smile, leaned against the door, and said temptingly: "I haven't eaten, do you want the rest of Xiang'er?"

After finishing speaking, I heard her heavy breathing.

Feeling refreshed, Lu Cheng leaned against the door and ate the remaining half leisurely before leaving.
