Chapter 8 You look so pretty when you smile
This was the second time Jiang Mingyue saw Xie Yuanxiao, was she so fascinated?
"Why are you dazed?" Xie Yuan asked, turning the reins.
"Ah?" Jiang Mingyue came back to her senses instantly, Oh my God! Oh my God! She was stunned again.
Jiang Mingyue, you are really worthless and a nymphomaniac. If you are caught committing nymphomaniacs, you will not restrain yourself.
Jiang Mingyue's face felt slightly hot, and she scolded herself fiercely. Looking for an excuse to excuse her? She raised her eyelashes and glanced at Xie Yuan secretly. She might not be able to deceive him, so let's just tell the truth!
"I'm looking at you!"
She pressed her heated cheeks, and although she was a little embarrassed, she still said it: "You should smile more, you look good!"
Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he heard someone praise him for his good looks so bluntly. He turned his head and his eyes fell on Jiang Mingyue's face.
The girl raised her little face to look at him. The words "very beautiful" made her cheeks glow, but her eyes were full of sincerity.
It had nothing to do with Fengyue, she was just stating the fact that she thought he looked good when he smiled.
Xie Yuan was very happy to be praised sincerely by a girl, so he smiled again and said: "You are also very beautiful!"
"I know it without you having to tell me."
One sentence instantly exposed his flamboyant, confident and cheerful temperament.
Forget about being exposed, she was exposed, and besides, she didn't think she could keep it secret for long. They and Xie Yuan were on the left and right, looking up but not looking down. It was too uncomfortable to keep pretending.
Xie Yuan was stunned again, obviously he didn't expect her to answer like this, and couldn't help laughing.
"You are quite confident!" The key point is that he dared to say it.
Jiang Mingyue held her chin with her hands and said cutely: "I don't call this confidence, I call it self-awareness, because I was born to be good-looking."
It turns out that self-knowledge can still be used in this way. Xie Yuan looked away and took out the bucket.
Jiang Mingyue watched him fetch the water and said, "Give it to me!"
"Let me help you! It's a little heavy and you might not be able to lift it."
Jiang Mingyue thought to herself, she underestimated me. Although she looks weak, she is not a weak woman.
Due to heart disease in her previous life, she could not do strenuous exercise. After getting a good body in this life, she particularly likes sports, so she also learned martial arts from her mother for several years. Although she was not very good at it, she still had the strength to carry a bucket of water.
"That's not possible. Master Juren has helped us a lot, so I'd better trouble you anyway."
"You don't have to think so much. Besides, I'll be fine right now."
Jiang Mingyue saw the man pouring water and carrying it and walking out, and hurriedly followed him.
"Thank you, Mr. Juren!"
Xie Yuan turned to look at her: "I'm a few years older than you. If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Xie in the future."
"Okay! Thank you, brother!" Jiang Mingyue looked at him with a smile and shouted obediently.
Thanking Brother, his breathing was instantly disrupted, but it only took him a few breaths to calm down.
Jiang Mingyue led Xie Yuan back home and saw smoke billowing in the kitchen.
"Brother, are you lighting up the kitchen?"
Jiang Minghong ran out of the kitchen, choking and coughing.
"I wanted to raise the fire first, but I didn't know the smoke was so big."
"I'll go in and take a look!"
Jiang Mingyue walked to the door of the kitchen, and a thick smoke blew her back again. It was so choking!
"Forget it, wait until the smoke is not so loud before going in."
Xie Yuan glanced at the two siblings who were standing outside and didn't dare to go in, and laughed dumbly.
He scooped up a ladle of water, wetted his handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose, then carried the ladle into the kitchen.
A ladle of water was poured on the firewood. The fire was extinguished and there was no smoke. He put down the ladle, turned around, opened the window, and then went out.
"Mr. Xie, thank you!" Jiang Minghong said with an embarrassed look.
"It's okay. You must have been deceived when you bought firewood. Only half-wet firewood will produce such big smoke when it is lit. If you go to Dongshi to buy firewood in the future, you can buy firewood from old man Xu's house. He is in his early fifties. , the skin is very dark, and there is a scar on the left side of the face that is easily identifiable.
Although his firewood is two cents more expensive than others, it is very durable and does not produce much smoke. The only thing is that his firewood is in short supply, so you have to go early to buy it. "
Thinking that the kitchen was still empty, Xie Yuan immediately said, "For things like pots and pans, you can go shopping in the East Market early in the morning. You can usually buy them. For rice and noodles, go to Shen's Grain Shop." , Shopkeeper Shen is very kind in doing business, and he doesn’t bully students, and then..."
Xie Yuan Lingling always said a lot to Jiang Mingyue and his sister.
"Remember?"
"Remember!" The two nodded obediently.
"Thank you very much, sir. When our brother and sister settle down, we will definitely come to our door to say thank you." Jiang Minghong bent down and bowed down.
Xie Yuan saw that the day laborers had moved the tables and stools off the carts and said, "You guys go ahead and find me if you need help."
The two siblings sent Xie Yuan away. Seeing that the day laborers had finished their work, it would be too late to boil water now. Jiang Mingyue grabbed a handful of brown sugar, made four bowls of brown sugar water, and her brother brought it to them.
"Sorry for the poor hospitality."
"Young master, there is no kinder master than you. You are willing to treat us to drink brown sugar water. We are all extremely grateful."
In the past three days, the Jiang siblings have never used them as day laborers. Before asking them to do work, they would discuss it with them and ask them if they were willing. They would say yes to them every time, just like yesterday when they unloaded the car. It's noon now.
Miss Jiang and Master Jiang also treated them to a sumptuous lunch. What made them most heartwarming was that Master Jiang did not dislike them at all and sat among them and ate with them.
During these three days in Jiang's house, they gained respect from others for the first time, and felt that they were human beings for the first time.
"From now on, whenever there is any work at home, you just go to the dock to find us." Zhao Changgong, the leader, said, patting his chest.
"Okay, I've written it down."
Jiang Minghong paid the four of them today's wages and sent them to the door in person before turning around.
"Sister, it's getting late, let's go back to the inn!"
"it is good!"
The two siblings locked the door and walked past Xie's house. A scent of fragrance hit their nostrils, and they sniffed their noses subconsciously.
"I don't know what Brother Xie is doing, but it tastes so good." It made her hungry. She was already hungry after a busy day, and now her stomach growled even more unsatisfactorily.
"Brother Xie?" Jiang Minghong looked at his sister in surprise. Why did his title suddenly change from the unfamiliar Master Juren to the very affectionate Brother Xie?
Jiang Mingyue told her brother what happened while fetching water.
"I see."
It seems that Xie Yuan really treats his sister as a little girl, but...
"How did sister know that Mr. Xie was cooking?"
"Because he is the only one in his house. If he is not the one cooking, then which one is he?"
'oh! ’
"Let's go eat quickly! My stomach is starting to get upset." Jiang Mingyue took the initiative to hold her brother's hand and speed up.
Neither of them treated themselves harshly. After having a good meal in the restaurant, they returned to the inn.
In Zaolin Alley, Xie Yuan carefully put the cooked meals into a food box, walked out of the kitchen, dug a jar of his own wine under the tree, and went out.
