Huai'en returned my clothes the next morning.

When Huai En came, I was pumping four tires in the yard with an air pump. This was what I bought at the town’s car repair shop early in the morning. I thought about fixing a few tires on both sides of my canoe, and I probably won’t turn over.

Huaien handed me my clothes. She seemed to have forgotten the embarrassment of yesterday, and showed her cute little tiger teeth and said to me: "Uncle, thank you yesterday, for giving your clothes!"

She probably washed the clothes again because I smelled a faint fragrance on them, and I never had the habit of adding spices to my clothes.

As soon as I was about to reach out to take it, Huai'en's hand shrank back. She looked at my hand and said, "Uncle, your hand is too dirty, so I'll help you put it back into the house!" After that, she smiled at me Yingying, turned around and entered the house.

But when she came out, her expression changed. She stood at the door and asked me with a strange expression: "Uncle, where is my clothes?"

I smiled secretly and thought to myself that you are so big that you only remember your clothes now.

I thrust my mouth towards the courtyard wall west of the wall. Huai'en followed my gesture and her white face turned red!

A few clothes I had just washed hung on a rope beside the courtyard wall, and her long skirt and two other pieces of equipment were also hung on it.

When I was washing clothes this morning, I saw Huai'en's clothes and didn't plan to help her wash them. After all, she is a girl who has nothing to do with me. The girl's underwear is not something a man can touch at will.

But I wondered when she would come to take her clothes, and since I came out of prison, I have maintained a neat living habit. I always feel a little uncomfortable if I put some dirty clothes on and don’t wash them.

Thinking that she kept calling me uncle, probably because she regarded me as an elder, she probably didn't think there was anything wrong with my behavior, so she washed her clothes together.

"Uncle, why... why are you..." Huaien was both embarrassed and embarrassed, but she didn't know what to say. She stopped after just saying a few words, and stomped her feet in a hurry.

I saw that her face looked ashamed as a monkey, and I felt embarrassed to take her to have fun again. I pretended to be nothing and continued to lower my head to hit my tire.

"I will wash your clothes in the morning and help you wash them. You can take them back after they are dry!" I lowered my head and deliberately refused to look at her, and said in a normal tone.

Huai En did not reply to my words, but remained silent for a long time.

I was curious and looked up at her, then I realized that she had been looking at me, but the moment I looked up, she lowered her head in a little panic.

"What? You haven't gone back yet? Is there no class today?" I knew she was still ashamed of the matter of clothes. She looked back and asked while busy with her work.

"Not in the morning, only in the afternoon!" Her voice was still a little unnatural.

"Then what you, the teacher, did was really easy. There weren't a few classes a week. Are you a teacher who was dependent on your relationship?" I saw that she was still a little unwilling to let go and said jokingly.

As expected, she was brought out by my words and immediately protested: "Who is entrusting her relationships? I am a top student at the Central Academy of Fine Arts! I still use entrusting her art class in elementary school? I can't even invite me in other schools, okay? I wouldn't have come if I didn't want to help the poor!"

She said with a slight dissatisfaction and arrogant look, as if she had forgotten the embarrassment she had just now.

I said this without intention, but listening to her words made me a little curious. With her innocent personality, I

Although she can't tell lies, and I have seen her paintings, her skills are beyond doubt. So why did she come here to be an art teacher in elementary school? She said it was poverty alleviation, but this reason was probably not sufficient.

"Miss Huai'en, can you tell me why you came here to be an art teacher in elementary school?" I immediately asked my question.

"Didn't you say that, in order to help the poor, I just treat it as a teaching support!" She walked up to me and squatted beside me and looked at me and said casually.

"Did you have no other job before this?" I asked.

"No, I just graduated last year, and after graduation, I traveled everywhere alone. I met you when I traveled to Tibet!" She turned her eyelids and looked at me with her big eyes and replied.

"Then why did you come here to teach again?"

"What's strange about this? Anyway, I'm idle, I'll come when I see the recruitment information sent by the principal!" Her tone was casual, as if it was taken for granted and nothing was worth wondering about.

"Then you can't teach here all the time, then the country will be in vain to cultivate you, a top student at the Central Academy of Fine Arts!" I asked the question in my heart in a joke.

Huaien held his face in his hands and seemed a little absent-mindedly: "Originally, my father wanted me to study in the United States, but the school there has not been confirmed yet. Besides, I don't really want to go, so I came here!"

Only then did I realize that it seemed that she came here to teach on a whim and would probably leave soon. She was indeed not suitable to stay in this small place, so she could only be buried here.

"Why don't you want to go?" I asked.

"I don't want to go, but I don't want to go. There is no such thing as why? It's so pitiful that I don't want to go!" She pouted and said.

"Your father is also doing your own good. If you don't go, wouldn't it be his expectations of you?"

"Of course I know he is good to me, and I don't want to disobey him, so I can only pray that the school over there will not accept me!" She said this and showed a sly smile on her face. "You said that if I wrote me as a bad girl in my information, or wrote some words to attack the United States, would they reject me?" She seemed to suddenly feel excited and looked at me with interest.

I sneered and glanced at her and said, "If you don't want to go, just have a good talk with your father. Do you think the information is written as you want? It's all notarized by your domestic university, okay?"

Huai En immediately became deflated when she heard this, sighed and drooped her eyelids in depression.

"I won't talk about this anymore. Uncle, what are you doing?" Huai En probably didn't want to be bothered by this matter, so he immediately changed the subject and pointed at my four tires that were already full of breath.

"Stand my canoe!"

Huai'en's drooping eyelids instantly raised when he heard this, and his eyes were full of energy again.

"Uncle, let's go now, I'll help you get it!" She looked at me with hope, and could see that she was also very interested in my canoe.

I glared at her and said unhappily: "You haven't drunk enough sea water yesterday, did you? Do you want to try it again?"

Huai'en stuck out his tongue and said with a smile: "Uncle, have you improved this? You probably won't capsize. Go away quickly, let's try it now!" As he said that, he picked up two tires and urged.

I looked at her innocent childlike appearance and smiled bitterly. I thought to myself that the scar has healed and forgot the pain. I had forgotten what I was asking if I was dead yesterday, but today I was eager to try again.

He shook his head helplessly. It seemed that she would not be willing to let her enjoy it anymore. As she fulfilled her wish, she picked up the other two tires and the ropes prepared in advance and went out.

I fixed the four tires on both sides of the canoe and laid a layer of bricks in the cabin to increase the draft of the canoe to achieve the effect of stabilizing the boat.

With yesterday's lesson, the improved Wind and Waves has indeed been much more stable, and it can still float steadily on the sea even when there is wind.

Yesterday's accident did not cause any psychological shadow on her at all. After I was ready, I jumped into the canoe first.

When the canoe was rowing into the deep water, it was still steady in the waves that were no less than yesterday. At that time, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Huai'en was even more excited and kept paddling in the water with a paddle.

"Uncle, we succeeded!" Huaien rowed the canoe to the center of the bay and shouted to me excitedly. The sea breeze blew her hair up, making her look full of endless vitality.

I looked at Huai'en, who looked excited, and couldn't help but smile.

"Uncle, I will be the captain of the Wind and Waves from now on. How about you be my deputy captain?" She waved her hands with her teeth and claws, as if she had found something.

"Okay, I will be Miss Huai'en's first mate from now on!" I said with a smile.

"Big mate? It turns out that the deputy captain is called the first mate! It sounds so amazing!" Huai En was so happy like an innocent child, with a fascinated expression on his face, as if we were really going to explore the unknown world.

We kept floating on the sea until noon that morning. Although the autumn sun was still dazzling, the sea breeze was blowing. I took the fishing nets placed on the bamboo raft and fished in the bay. Huai'en was responsible for rowing. Whenever we closed the net, Huai'en would be excited and rush to catch fish from the net. Seeing her happy look, I think this was probably an experience she had never had before.

At noon, Huai'en and I carried a net bag of fish and shrimps, and returned to my yard with satisfaction. I personally cooked two dishes of my best fish and shrimps from the fish and shrimp I had just salvaged. Huai'en was very proud of her. We ate all the dishes with rice. Huai'en was still unsatisfied and said to me: "Uncle, can I still eat the dishes you cook in the future?"

I saw her greedy look and smiled without saying anything. To be honest, I actually didn't want to have too much contact with her. First, I still like a lonely life alone and don't want any changes. Second, I was worried that there would be another situation that I couldn't predict. The uncontrollable feeling made me feel scared. Even if she kept calling me an uncle, she always regarded me as an elder!

"Can you beg me?" Huai En saw that I just smiled and didn't answer, and looked at me with a begging look like a coquettish look.

I sighed, nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, if you want to eat seafood, come to me and I will make it for you!" But I prayed secretly in my heart, hoping that I would not be afraid of anything again!

Seeing that I finally agreed, Huai En immediately showed excitement and stood up and said goodbye: "Uncle, I have class in the afternoon, so I'll go back to school first!" After that, he wanted to leave, but I stopped him.

"Take your clothes back, would you even ask me to send them to school?" I glanced at her and said unhappily.

Huai'en's face turned slightly red. He looked at me shyly, walked quickly to the wall and wrapped two underwear in his skirt and ran out of the yard quickly.
