Chapter 114 Zhang Liu's Heartbeat
Mrs. Wang would watch everyone in the backyard every day to see if they were lazy, and then she would do something herself. Sometimes she would go to the front yard to deliver things or something. In short, Mrs. Wang was the only one who could go to the front yard, but she was still the only one who could go to the front yard.
People who spend most of their time in the backyard.
Being watched by others and everyone was working together, Jiang Bailian could never find a chance to talk to Zhang Liu.
The only time is at night when there is no work and someone is watching the back door. Then there may be an opportunity.
But she and Zhang Liu only looked at each other and never spoke. How could they agree on a time to meet and talk?
Although Jiang Bailian was anxious, she still tried to think of a way. After much deliberation, the only way was to go out at night and try her luck.
When preparing snacks during the day, Jiang Bailian deliberately left a few pieces aside. Although she knew whether she made more or less, she couldn't tell how many snacks she had.
At night, Jiang Bailian tidied up carefully in front of the mirror. She couldn't be too obvious, otherwise it would look deliberate, and she couldn't be unpainted at all, otherwise it wouldn't be refined enough. She had to dress herself up so that others couldn't see it.
After cleaning up, Jiang Bailian ran out secretly, and then saw who was on duty today. If there was Zhang Liu, then he would take action. If not, then he would go back and talk about it tomorrow.
Originally, I was just trying my luck, but in the end, it was really Zhang Liu. Two people were on duty at the backyard door at night, and it turned out that Zhang Liu was there!
Jiang Bailian suppressed her joy. He was here, so how could she talk to him alone?
It's the first time we're talking. It's definitely impossible to rush over there, not to mention there's someone next to you.
Jiang Bailian thought, anyway, the days are long, if we have an intersection today, he will definitely take the initiative to talk to her in the future!
It was getting late and the night was still a little cold, so Jiang Bailian suddenly thought of a way.
She first boiled a pot of hot water and brought two bowls over. She walked to Zhang Liu and another person and smiled gently.
"Brothers, drink some water. It's cold at night. It's better to drink some hot water."
"Thank you, girl." The boy smiled and thanked him. They were on duty at night. It was indeed a bit cold at night, so he also wore clothes.
But the girl’s kindness came over, and they couldn’t refuse it!
"I'll do it. It's cold at night and I'm bothering the girl. She's really kind-hearted." Zhang Liu looked at Jiang Bailian, a little shy but also happy.
Jiang Bailian handed over the bowl and poured hot tea for both of them. She also learned the action of pouring tea, and her movements were filled with beauty.
Anyway, Zhang Liu couldn't take his eyes off it. How could someone look so good even pouring tea?
"I was also working in the backyard, and I just needed some water. I remembered it was colder outside, so I boiled some water. It wasn't too much trouble. We are all from Changlefang, so we should help each other."
Jiang Bailian looked gentle and gentle, and even mentioned Changlefang, which made it easier to talk.
"Yes! Our fourth brother also often says that people in Changlefang should unite internally and help each other."
Sure enough, someone started to answer. Such young guys are loyal to Changlefang.
Several people also said a few words. Seeing that the tea was almost finished, Jiang Bailian took the tea bowl and secretly pushed the two snacks wrapped in a handkerchief to Zhang Liu.
Zhang Liu's eyes lit up, and when he saw Jiang Bailian's shy smile, he quickly stuffed the things into his sleeves.
"Thank you so much for today, Miss Jiang. After drinking this hot tea, I feel much warmer."
Another silly boy didn't see the action between Jiang Bailian and Zhang Liu, and stupidly thanked Jiang Bailian.
"That's good. It's getting late, so I'll go back. You two have been keeping vigil here."
"It's not hard, it's not hard. Girl, go back quickly! It's cold."
Jiang Bailian smiled and took the bowl and teapot back. Today's goal has been achieved, and the days ahead are long. This is just the beginning!
After Jiang Bailian left, Zhang Liu still looked at her back, unable to regain his composure.
Yu Qi muttered there, wanting to talk to Zhang Liu.
"Brother Six, why do you think Miss Jiang comes to work in Changlefang? She is so good-looking, and there are all those aunts working in the backyard, so she is tired."
Those who cook and wash clothes in the backyard are not easy jobs anyway, and Changlefang is not allowed to go out often and can only take a vacation once a month. How can Miss Jiang, a teenage girl, come here to do menial work?
Woolen cloth?
"Maybe there is a reason!"
Zhang Liu whispered in a low voice that he didn't understand Miss Jiang's situation. The people who came to Changlefang were simply poor at home, or they didn't even have a home.
No matter what it is, Miss Jiang's situation is heartbreaking, and she is also a gentle and kind girl.
Zhang Liu touched the thing inside his sleeve, and felt soft in his heart. She must be interested in him!
The shift change started before dawn the next day. Zhang Liu and Yu Qi went back to rest. They didn't sleep all night, so they could rest all morning!
After Zhang Liu returned, everyone in the same room as him went to work. He quickly lay on the bed and took out the things from his sleeves.
It turned out to be a handkerchief with two snacks inside, which should be sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Zhang Liu took a bite and found it so sweet. Miss Jiang must have made it herself and secretly kept it for herself!
The sweet-scented osmanthus cake made his heart even sweeter. No matter how reluctant he was to part with it, he was afraid of being discovered by others, so he slowly finished the two snacks and then looked at the handkerchief.
It is a pink handkerchief with a few small flowers embroidered on it, very fresh and elegant.
Zhang Liu gently brought it to the tip of his nose. There was the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, as well as another light fragrance. It should be Miss Jiang's...
Zhang Liu didn't know what he thought of, his face turned red, and then he carefully put the handkerchief into his sleeves. He was indeed tired, so he hurriedly took a rest.
He wasn't supposed to be on duty tomorrow night, so he would find a way to get there. Anyway, he could just sleep during the day. He wanted to see Miss Jiang.
Regardless of whether Miss Jiang is interested in him or not, he should go and thank her and return the veil to the girl.
Should he also give her something? It seems a bit like exchanging gifts with each other, so let’s talk about it later!
At the moment, he is not sure what Miss Jiang is thinking! They have only met a few times, and last night was the first time they talked, so he is not sure either.
But he couldn't sleep. All he could think of was Jiang Bailian's smile, gentle and shy...she was so beautiful.
Next time they meet, should he tell her that he is also interested in her, and then ask her what she thinks.
