Chapter 109 Even my toes are embarrassed
The next morning at breakfast.
The atmosphere was awkward for everyone.
Li Ruoxue kept her head down, chewing slowly and carefully.
Several relatives also stole glances at Li Ruoxue from time to time.
After breakfast.
"Aunt, there are still many things to do at home. Ruoxue and I will go back later," Lin Dachun said to his uncle and aunt.
"Alright, alright, go back and talk to Ruoxue." Aunt glanced at Li Ruoxue.
Li Ruoxue blushed and lowered her head.
Lin Dachun's aunt secretly pulled him aside and asked him furtively, "What's going on between you and Ruoxue? What's wrong?"
"what?"
"What? What were you doing last night? This is so embarrassing!" Auntie was speechless.
Lin Dachun scratched his head, feeling extremely embarrassed.
She could only awkwardly say, "Auntie, we'd better go back now."
"Alright, alright, don't do that when you go back. It'll be so embarrassing if people find out." My aunt is a very traditional woman, and this was her way of admonishing me: "A few years ago, you would have been burned alive, both of you."
"I understand, Auntie. I'll be careful," Lin Dachun said.
"Just paying attention isn't enough; we have to stop," my aunt said very seriously.
"Mm." Lin Dachun nodded.
Auntie returned the gift to Lin Dachun and also gave Li Ruoxue some special instructions.
Lin Dachun and Li Ruoxue then went down the mountain together to return to their village.
After the two people left.
Then the cousins and other relatives started gossiping about it.
"Was this Ruoxue last night?"
"Oh dear, how embarrassing!"
"How could she do this?"
"Shameless! Unscrupulous!"
"It's only human nature."
same.
On their way back, Li Ruoxue looked aggrieved, and tears were welling up in her eyes.
"Waaaah, so embarrassing!"
"It's alright," Lin Dachun said, patting Li Ruoxue's head to comfort her.
"Of course you're fine. You're a man. The way they looked at me this morning was strange, like I was some kind of monster." Li Ruoxue could tell too.
Lin Dachun gave an awkward smile and said, "It's all due to alcohol; I shouldn't have been drinking."
"Hmm." Li Ruoxue glanced at Lin Dachun, still visibly frightened, and asked, "What do we do now?"
"Nothing much happened, they won't go around spreading rumors," Lin Dachun explained.
"That won't do either. I'd be mortified if they knew." Li Ruoxue wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
I was really something. I drank alcohol and was being held by Lin Dachun, so I lost my mind.
Completely controlled by certain emotions within the body.
"It's alright, don't worry," Lin Dachun reassured him.
What happened last night was a bit...
But the two of them walked slower than any other day.
The dirt road had been baking in the sun all day, and it was scorching hot; heat seeped up from the soles of my shoes.
At the entrance of Linjiatun Village, we met the widow He Xiulan.
He Xiulan ran over happily.
"You're back from visiting relatives?"
"Um."
He Xiulan cleared her throat: "Um... I heard that Aunt Liu's daughter is in confinement after childbirth, and she said that tofu is good for producing enough breast milk."
"Really? Tofu is a nutritious food, and many pregnant women love to eat it," Lin Dachun replied.
"Dachun, Ruoxue, are we going to borrow the millstone from Aunt Wang's house again tomorrow? Or should we save up our own money and play a game?" He Xiulan suggested.
Li Ruoxue then turned her head away.
Her face was gilded by the setting sun, her long eyelashes casting small shadows beneath her eyes: "It must have cost a lot of money, right?"
"We'll save it up slowly." He Xiulan quickened her pace and walked alongside her. "If the tofu business is stable, what's a millstone?"
"Xiulan is right. We need to have all the tools, and we need to keep them ourselves. We can't keep borrowing from others," Lin Dachun said.
"That's what I meant." He Xiulan nodded in agreement.
"I'll handle this. Consider it my support for your tofu business." Lin Dachun glanced at Li Ruoxue, trying to soothe her emotions in this way.
Do you have that money?
"I'll figure out the money; it's not much." Lin Dachun patted Li Ruoxue's head again, showing her great affection.
Seeing the two so intimate and ambiguous, He Xiulan was filled with jealousy.
