Half a month later, Su Yan received another letter from Qin An's entrustment, saying that she had already rushed back.
This time I bought a pack of shortbread cookies. I don’t know what they are made of, but they are quite delicious.
The weather was getting warmer now, so Su Yan sat in the main room and slowly ate two pieces, then wrapped the rest and put them in the room.
After that, she went out carrying the vegetable basket, followed by two half-sized dogs, which barked whenever unfamiliar people approached, especially men doing farm work.
It barks extremely fiercely, but does not bite.
After the cold winter, the weeds in the fields keep growing, and they are more tender than vegetables. When you pinch them, grass juice will come out.
Su Yan put down the basket and pulled it against the weeds in the ground. The two dogs ran on the ridge nonchalantly. She didn't know how they ran away, but they fell into the crab pond and barked several times.
Su Yan subconsciously got up and took a look. The water was not deep enough to cover it, so she left it alone. After a while, the dog came up.
From beginning to end, the whole morning passed. Su Yan went back with a basket of vegetables. When she saw the cooking, the dog was even more anxious than she was.
She kicked them and said angrily: "Go lie down in the yard."
There was nothing to do today, so she planned to make some dumplings to eat.
Yesterday I got some shepherd's purse, washed them, chopped them and threw them into a big bowl. Then I grabbed some dried bamboo shoots and soaked them.
As soon as I grabbed the flour, I heard Xiao Bai and Xiao Huang barking outside and wagging their tails.
The word Qin An just flashed through her mind, and the next moment she heard the man's hoarse voice coming from outside the door, "It's me, Qin An."
Upon hearing this voice, Su Yan's eyes lit up and she hurriedly ran out to open the door. The next moment she met the man's face and almost didn't recognize him.
I haven't seen him for more than half a month, and the stubble on his chin has grown very long, his eyes are black and blue, and his cheeks are extremely rough.
The clothes are also quite dirty.
But people are not thin.
She turned sideways and let him in, "Brother Qin, are you okay?"
Qin An, who was in a hurry to come back, felt at ease when he saw the young woman with delicate shoulders. He looked soft and said hoarsely: "No... ahem... nothing."
Seeing that his voice was so hoarse that he could not speak, Su Yan quickly went to the kitchen and brought out a bowl of sugar water, "Drink a few sips."
"Are you in a hurry to get back?"
I just received a letter saying that he was back, and he came back right away. Looking at him, I'm afraid he didn't stop on the road.
Seeing her staring at him, Qin An later realized that he was going to be very dirty. He drank sugar water, moistened his throat, and said quickly: "I'm going to wash up."
Originally, when I came back with the escort agency, I could stay in an inn at night, but it took me about ten days to get back.
He did not join them, but hurried back on his own, even at night.
It's not that he doesn't want to sleep, it's that when he thinks of Su Yan in his mind, he can't sleep and just wants to get back.
Thinking that he had traveled all the way, Su Yan quickly said: "Let's take a break, we are not in a hurry."
After saying that, he went to get the soft-soled shoes for him and said, "Change to this."
Qin An took his shoes and changed them in the yard. As soon as he took off his boots, he shook them off. There was a lot of mud and sand, and the socks were dirty, and the original color could no longer be seen.
Su Yan turned around and went to the house to get clean socks, and then went to the kitchen to boil warm water. She came out with the water, bent down and tested the water temperature, "Soak it for a while."
Seeing that there was a layer of sand on his hair, she reached out and patted him twice. Qin An leaned back slightly and said unnaturally: "It's dirty, don't touch it."
"I took pictures, otherwise it would be troublesome to wash my hair."
Su Yan doesn't dislike him being dirty at all. There are no clean people who work. The clean ones either don't make money, or they didn't do it.
She continued to pat a few times, and Qin An's whole body froze, and his feet moved unnaturally in the wooden basin.
But he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
After a while, Su Yan withdrew her hand and said with a crooked look on her face: "You sit down and soak for a while, I'll make dumplings, eat and rest before washing up." After saying that, she turned around and entered the kitchen.
Qin An kept looking at her out of the corner of his eye, feeling in his heart
Gradually, I felt calmer. I washed my feet a few times, put on my shoes and went to the kitchen. I just wanted to pack a bag.
Su Yan stopped him and said, "Go to the main room to rest."
Qin An shook his head subconsciously, "I'm not tired."
"You can rest even if you're not tired." Su Yan said without any discussion.
In the end, Qin An had to sit at the door of the stove and watch her make dumplings. After Su Yan finished making dumplings, she glanced at the man at the door of the stove and saw that he fell asleep leaning against the pile of firewood.
Still saying I'm not tired...
Su Yan didn't wake her up, she bent down and quietly put two firewood in the stove, and then started cooking dumplings.
After cooking, she walked to the kitchen door and called Qin An, "Brother Qin? Brother Qin?"
After calling twice and the man didn't wake up, she reached out and patted him on the shoulder. The man looked at her a little worriedly, and his eyes soon became clear.
"What's wrong?"
"The dumplings are ready. Let's go and take a nap after eating." Su Yan handed him a bowl of dumplings.
Qin An took it and smelled the aroma. He suddenly felt that the food outside was not as delicious as the dumplings made by Su Yan.
"and yours?"
"Yes, I packed more than a hundred. Eat more."
Su Yan went to get the dumplings, sat next to Qin An, and said, "The sugar people and the shortbread are both delicious."
Hearing this, Qin An's eyes flashed with joy, and then he said in a low voice, "I'll take you to buy it."
Having said this, he thought of something, took out a one-hundred-tael silver note from his arms, and handed it to her without any hesitation.
"The money for this escort trip."
Su Yan put down the bowl and chopsticks, reached out to take it, then stood up and took the wooden box that she left in the house.
After eating the dumplings, Su Yan asked Qin An to change into clean clothes and go to sleep in the house.
Qin An didn't try to be brave anymore. He went back to the house and slept until the next morning. When he came out of the house, he saw a woman hanging clothes in the yard.
The one he wore when he came back yesterday.
Su Yan caught a glimpse of him leaving the house. While drying clothes, she looked at him and said, "Brother Qin, you can take out the food in the pot and eat it yourself."
Qin An said "hmm", but then he came over to help dry a piece of clothes. He glanced at the woman, then glanced at her again.
He felt more and more satisfied.
Su Yan naturally noticed it, and her ears turned red. After drying the last piece of clothing, she bent down to get the barrel.
At the same time, Qin An also reached out, and she immediately grabbed his wrist.
The two of them were stunned for a moment, and when they realized what they were doing, Su Yan was about to let go when her rough hands wrapped tightly around hers, and her hot breath warmed her hands instantly.
Before Su Yan could say anything, the next moment she was hugged tightly. The man lowered his head slightly and said in a low voice, "Did anyone bully you? Did anyone scold you?"
It seemed that if she was wronged, he would go find someone else to feel wronged.
This man was always thinking about her. Su Yan felt warm in her heart. She leaned against his hard chest and shook her head: "No, they don't dare to come over."
Qin An felt more relieved and said "Yeah". After a while, he let go of her and bent down to pick up the barrel.
