128 Boil it
Chen Xu felt his nose itchy, so he woke up. When he opened his eyes, he saw Yang Jinxia lying on his chest, holding a strand of hair, teasing his nose.
Seeing him wake up, she let go of her hand and said with a smile, "Are you awake?"
That smiling face made Chen Xu feel a little lost.
He reached out and rubbed his itchy nose to relieve the embarrassment. Soon, what happened last night came back to his mind.
His eyes softened and he asked, “Did you sleep well last night?”
"Not good at all."
Yang Jinxia looked stern and said, "You actually hugged me and slept all night. Am I not attractive to you at all?"
Chen Xu felt his nose was itchy again, so he forced himself to not rub his nose, and said a little embarrassedly, "My grandma is sleeping next door."
"Have you seen anything?" Yang Jinxia snorted and sat up, "It's all excuses."
Chen Xu also wanted to sit up, but after moving, he realized that his right hand had completely lost consciousness and was not obedient at all.
Last night, he held her in his right hand and was pressed for a night. It would be strange if he didn't feel numb.
"What's wrong?" After Yang Jinxia got out of bed, she found a rubber band and tied her hair up. When she turned around, she saw him turning around and pinching his right arm, and asked.
Chen Xu endured the sour feeling and said, "It's numb."
"I deserve it."
She said, but she climbed up again and gently pinched the muscles of her arm. Seeing his brows frowned from time to time, she was obviously uncomfortable. She couldn't help but say, "Don't you know how to pull your hands out?"
Chen Xu smiled and said nothing.
"Oh, you really don't understand any interest." She sighed, "Can't you say something nice to me? You're obviously afraid of waking me up."
Chen Xu slowly shrank his hand back. Yang Jinxia was slightly stunned and heard him say in a low tone, "What identity do you want me to be with you all the time?"
Her eyes grew from surprise and calm, looking at him.
During a silence, the atmosphere gradually became stiff.
Finally, Yang Jinxia moved her mouth and spoke, "You..."
Dongdong...
The knock on the door outside interrupted her words. Grandma's voice came in, "Xiaoxu, come out for breakfast."
In an instant, the tense atmosphere was interrupted.
Chen Xu felt relieved, and then he found that Yang Jinxia's expression was obviously relaxed. He didn't know what it felt in his heart, and responded, "Here you come."
After going downstairs, the two of them tacitly did not mention what happened just now.
Grandma prepared new toothbrushes and towels for them. Because there are no small shops in the village now, it is inconvenient to buy things in the town, so they keep these daily necessities all year round. Some people can use them when they go home.
Chen Xu walked out of the house with a toothbrush and a towel basin to wash, leaving the bathroom for Yang Jinxia.
After he came back from washing up, the bathroom door was still closed. It always took more time for a woman to clean.
When he returned to the living room, he saw the ambiguous smile on Aunt San's face. He knew that he couldn't wash it even if he jumped into the river this time, so he just pretended that he didn't see it.
At this time, it was already dawn and it was half past six.
This time, his biological clock failed for the first time and he overslept.
After a while, Yang Jinxia finished washing up. When she came over, she had already changed her clothes and said hello when she entered the door, "Grandma is early, third aunt is early."
"Come on, sit down and have breakfast." Grandma greeted her with a smile.
I had porridge for breakfast, and I stir-fried a green vegetable, eggs, a bowl of pickles and a plate of salted peanuts.
While eating, Chen Xu asked her, "Do you want to go back to the company today?"
"No, I took a leave just now." Yang Jinxia said, "It's rare to come here. I want to play here for a day."
"Well, after dinner, I'll take you to the town for a walk." Chen Xu still remembered how interested she was in the lively market yesterday.
"OK."
After breakfast, Chen Xu drove her out. Before leaving, Aunt San asked him to buy some vegetables and came back, and he agreed.
This town is bigger than Liu Xiaoshang. In fact, when Chen Xu was in elementary school, there was no concept of going to the market here. It was also at that time that young people here flocked to big cities to make money on a large scale.
Even so, there is still a bustling street centered on the old supply and marketing cooperative. There are two or three supermarkets alone. There are also a larger number of small wholesale departments.
When they arrived, the street was already very lively. Some sell couplets, New Year's stickers, incense paper candles, and various small vendors filled the entire street.
After Chen Xu parked the car, the two walked towards the street.
At the intersection, there is a stall selling pork. It uses a motorcycle and a wooden platform is fixed on the back seat. This takes over the middle of the road.
The man who sold meat was a middle-aged man with a missing piece of index finger on his right hand. When he saw him looking over, he picked up the knife and asked, "Boss, buy meat?"
Chen Xu shook his head decisively and continued to walk forward.
After walking a distance, Yang Jinxia asked in a low voice, "The pork seller was so fierce just now. When you shook your head, I was so afraid that he would come with a knife."
Chen Xu couldn't help laughing and said, "Who would do business like that. However, these people are really not easy to mess with. I heard from the villagers that the pork sellers in the town were monopolized by more than a dozen companies. Last year, people from other towns came to sell and were beaten by them, and the matter was still very big."
Yang Jinxia said, "I just think these people are very evil."
The two of them walked over and shouted loudly, including those who sold kitchen knives, medicinal oil, electric woks, and Cordyceps flowers.
The most lively one is a ten-yuan shop where a speaker is placed, "The whole venue costs ten yuan, each item costs ten yuan...". It's so crowded.
Every time when passing by a stall, Yang Jinxia would stop and take a look, watching the people who set up the stalls sell products in various ways.
Chen Xu rarely comes to the market and watches with her, feeling it is quite novel.
"Look, there is a game of tying circles there." Yang Jinxia seemed to have discovered a new continent and ran over.
Chen Xu followed and saw a dozen big gooses on an open space with their feet and wings tied. About one meter away from them, there was a railing. In front of the railing, a young man was holding a small plastic circle and slid his neck towards the big goose.
He was a little surprised that he hadn't watched this kind of game for a long time. I remember that when he was in middle school, he went to his parents' business place during the summer vacation and went out shopping at night, and often saw such games in circles.
Later, urban management became stricter, so I rarely saw such games.
Unexpectedly, there are still people in my hometown town now.
"Chen Xu, let's play too." Yang Jinxia said excitedly.
Chen Xu immediately went to buy ten yuan with the owner of the stall, and gave it to her.
After the man in front used up all the circles, she walked forward. While hooking the circle on the ground with a pole, the boss reminded her not to cross the railing, otherwise it would be invalid.
Yang Jinxia picked up a circle, pointed it at the head of the goose that was closest to, and threw it out, and turned it apart.
"Oh, come again..."
After a while, all ten circles were thrown away, but they didn't hit it once.
Chen Xu had expected that the distance looked quite close, but in fact, it was quite difficult. First, the circle was too small, and second, these goose had long and flexible necks. If something was thrown over, it would subconsciously avoid it.
"Ten more." Yang Jinxia seemed to be addicted to playing and wanted ten more laps.
Soon, the circles in her hand were thrown out one by one, leaving the last two. She suddenly turned around and said, "It's so difficult, why don't you try it."
"Okay." Chen Xu mentioned the plastic circle, walked up to him, and asked, "Which one do you want?"
"That white one is the most beautiful," she said, pointing to a goose in the middle.
"Okay." Chen Xu took a look, then threw out the plastic ring in his hand. He was about to put it into its head, and its neck shrank and flickered, and then he avoided it.
Yang Jinxia pulled his arm hard and shouted, "Oh, what a pity."
"Come again." Chen Xu observed for a while, and threw the circle out, and took a little rotation, which was faster. The white goose didn't react this time, and her head was trapped.
"I'm beaten." Yang Jinxia cheered.
The audience next to them also applauded.
