Taohua persuaded her mother-in-law. She looked at the sky and said to her mother-in-law: "Mom, let's cook quickly, or there will be a power outage again soon."

"Isn't that right? If you wipe the black bag, there will definitely be a power outage." Aunt Liu agreed, and the two of them started to cook dinner.

Dajun came back from outside, still humming a little tune. As soon as he entered the room, he smelled it twice and said, "It smells so good. What is Kurosuke cooking today?"

No one paid any attention to him, and he looked around like a thief. He finally found the big cakes and fried pork slices covered under the cloth, so he laughed and reached out to take them. "Pah!" Liu

Qiaoxian slapped him on the hand and cursed: "You bastard are more greedy than our pigs. You go out crazy for a long time, and you want to eat when you come back?"

The army begged, "I'm already hungry, please let me have a piece first."

Taohua smiled and said, "Mom, let him have a taste. I don't mind if he is greedy to death. Where are you going to find such a precious son?"

"No, he was just trying to persuade the King of Hell to steal someone's skin in vain, and he came here in such a hurry to be my son. It's true." Taohua and her mother-in-law sang along and made sarcastic comments.

It has become a common practice for the army to eat it regardless of whether it is there or not, and they still praise it and say: "It's good, this is called delicious food. Hey, my wife still feels sorry for me."

"You're not ashamed." Taohua glared at him and said, "Why are you so selfish? Go ahead and send it to dad first."

"Yeah, I'll go right away."

After dinner, Liu Qiaoxian asked Dajun and his father to stay with him to look after the house, and asked Taohua to accompany her to deliver food to Liu Haitao. Taohua had something on her mind, and she had not forgotten her appointment with Lijuan to meet, but she was too embarrassed to shirk it. She looked at the sky and the moon.

It had already appeared, hanging high in the sky, and the sky, which was not completely dark, became even brighter. It was still early, so Taohua reluctantly agreed to go with her mother-in-law.

Things have reached this point. Regarding Taohua and Liu Haitao, everyone in the family except Dajun probably knows very well. Especially Taohua's mother-in-law Liu Qiaoxian knows the ins and outs of the two of them best, because it was she who was the one who brought them together.

and design, and even deliberately provided opportunities that allowed Taohua and Liu Haitao to develop to where they are today.

Now that they have reached this point, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law no longer need to hide and avoid each other. What the mother-in-law is most concerned about now is whether Taohua can conceive a child as soon as possible. At that time, the Liu family will have roots and hope. There are a thousand things to say.

10,000 is all nonsense.

Taohua smelled a pungent smell of smoke in the room, mixed with a strange fragrance. She thought that this must be left by someone coming to smoke, so she didn't pay much attention to it, and she didn't say anything.

.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had just laid out the meal for Liu Haitao, but before she could take a bite, there was indeed another power outage. Taohua was anxious to light a light. She found the kerosene lamp very familiarly, but when she touched the match, there was no more. She was puzzled and couldn't help asking.

A voice came: "Where are the matches? They are still here at noon, why..."

"Here it is." Liu Haitao threw it to her from the window sill. Taohua took advantage of the light from the window sill and saw a pack of cigarettes there, so she asked: "You smoke? Where did you get cigarettes? Why did you learn to smoke again?

Do you want to smoke this thing?"

Liu Qiaoxian also asked: "I remember that Naughty doesn't know how to smoke, right? Why...?"

Liu Haitao explained: "Secretary Chang from the village came to see me two days ago. He took out a cigarette and smoked it. I smelled a very fragrant smell. I asked him what kind of cigarette he smoked that was so fragrant? He said he asked me to try it.

His 'Phoenix' brand was very expensive, and most people couldn't afford it or smoke it, so I tried it, and he gave him two more packs before leaving. Just now I felt bored, so I smoked another one.

.”

"Humph, you are learning from whom. I think you are becoming more and more promising?" Taohua muttered as she lit the lamp. She struck the match hard, but because she used too much force, it either broke or failed to stick after a few strokes.

She was angry, and now she was even angrier. She said with some excitement: "This old match just can't strike."

"Stop lighting it. The moon is very bright today. You can see everything." When her mother-in-law saw Peach Blossom, she was really angry. She knew why, so Aunt Liu said to Liu Haitao: "If you don't know how to smoke, don't learn that thing."

Son, if you learn not to smoke, it will be harmful to your own body, and it will also affect others, and it will be harmful to your children in the future... Oh, who wants to be with a big smoker? Right?"

"Auntie is right, I guarantee that I will never smoke again." Liu Haitao seemed determined.

Liu Qiaoxian knew it was for Taohua, so she smiled and said, "This is a good boy. Come on, let's eat quickly. Can you see? Do you want to light the lamp?"

"It's okay, you can see it, but you can't eat it in your nose." Liu Haitao happily ate it.

"Oh, there's a call!" Taohua exclaimed. She turned on the light and reached out to turn on the TV. A female voice was seen singing sweetly:

I finally understand the feeling you want, so you choose a foreign land and leave me at the border.

You said you kept flying like a migratory bird. I thought the climate here was your favorite season.

I later discovered that there is actually no sin in betrayal. In the game of love, tolerance and compromise are required.

So all the hypocrisy becomes a kind of defense, covering up the remaining years after you leave.

You chase the beauty you want, and I wait around what you ignore.

You fly freely without fear of danger. I wait for you to get tired and be your last refuge...

Listening to the melodious song, Taohua felt a sadness in her heart, and her eyes were a little moist. She was afraid that her mother-in-law and Liu Haitao would find out, so she quickly turned around and walked to the outhouse.

She wiped away her tears quietly, and suddenly remembered the agreement she had made with Lijuan tonight. Seeing that it was already getting late, she said to her mother-in-law through the door curtain: "Mom, please wait here for a while while watching the TV. I want to go out first."

"Okay, go ahead, go if you have something to do. I'm here." My mother-in-law agreed and told me, "Be careful in the dark and don't go too far. Can you go out alone? If you're late, just go home."

Come on, don't tie me up, I can go alone."

Her mother-in-law knew that Taohua was a timid person, especially afraid of walking at night. She looked at the sky and then at the environment in the courtyard, but she could see clearly. So she replied confidently: "Today

I'm not afraid of Er Heijie being so lively, so don't worry, mother."

Indeed, the night sky in late autumn is clear and cloudless. Under the bright moonlight, the whole earth looks exceptionally bright. Everything is as clear and visible as daylight. No wonder Taohua became bolder this time.

As soon as she went out, she happened to bump into Lijuan. She was still shocked: "Oh my God! Sister Lijuan, why are you here?"

Sun Lijuan smiled and scolded: "Coward, you are still asking me? Why didn't you keep your promise? You asked me to wait for you for so long."

Taohua quickly apologized and said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, weren't I and my mother-in-law delivering food to the naughty children? My mother-in-law called me and I had to go, so it wasted some time."

"How's it going? Is Naughty's injury feeling better?"

"I'm almost feeling better. There's only...a little bit left. I'll be fully recovered in another three or two days."

"Then... you have to take good care of Naughty. He is the backbone of your family. It will be terrible if he has any troubles, hehe..." Lijuan said, only to hear her weird smile.

"You...?" Taohua heard that there was something in Lijuan's words, and couldn't help but feel a little "thump" in her heart. She thought: Did she hear any rumors? No way? Only my mother-in-law and father-in-law know about the matter between Naughty and me. She is

How do you know? Well

, Hello, Sun Lijuan, do you think that these days I often deliver meals to the naughty boy and accompany him to recuperate from his injuries? Is it because I have been serving him for such a long time that you are trying to bluff me? Humph?

, want to divert the target of you and the army? No way!

Thinking of this, she deliberately sighed and said: "Oh, there is no way. The naughty boy was injured so badly because he was trying to save his life. The village gave my mother-in-law the task of serving him. I was afraid that she would be too tired so I helped her."

Delivering meals and washing up, besides, the production team keeps track of work points, so it’s not like he’s waiting for him in vain.”

Sun Lijuan smiled again and said: "Isn't it right even if you work for nothing? You are a family. If you don't serve, who will serve you? Besides, is the naughty one just to save the people in the village? He is doing good deeds and doing good deeds bravely, right?"

"Yes, you are not like our army. She knew that she was sick but didn't stay at home and still went..." Taohua was clearly "revenge". Sun Lijuan was indeed blocked by her this time and had nothing to say.

, because what Tao Hua saw with her own eyes, she has a solid handle on.

Sun Lijuan thought: Taohua asked me out tonight, not just to quarrel with me, right? Isn't it just about the matter between me and Dajun? Since you already know, Heijie is not in front of others today, so let's be frank.

Let's talk for a while. After the conversation, you can kill or chop her as you please.

Thinking of this, Sun Lijuan parted her peach blossoms and said: "Look at how beautiful the moon is today, why don't we go sit on the big slope?"

The "big slope" Lijuan mentioned was a flood control wall by the village in the past. It was a flood dam specially used to protect the village a long time ago. Decades have passed, and although it has never been used, it has been retained by the village.

.When the agriculture imitated Dazhai that year, the village wanted to level it to grow grain, but the village had

Many old people blocked it and refused to let it be demolished. Even the old party members signed a letter to save it. When summer comes in that place, most of the men and women in the village, old and young, come to chat and rest. People call it: enjoy the cool breeze under the tall trees.

Among the flowers, not surprisingly, it is a great place to escape the summer heat.

If you have somewhere to go, then go. Late autumn nights occasionally bring a hint of coolness. Although there is a beautiful moonlight on this large slope tonight, there are no people chatting and relaxing.

The lawn on the steep slope is low and soft, and the willows on both sides dance in the moonlight.

Taohua and Lijuan sat on the ground, looking at the gray crop fields under the moonlight. They could vaguely hear the "squeaking" sound of the dry leaves rubbing against each other in the breeze.

"Taohua, are you okay with asking me out?" It was Lijuan who spoke first.

Taohua withdrew her distant gaze, looked down at her toes and replied, "I think we talked about this on the way here."

Lijuan understood that after much thought, it turned out that Taohua made an appointment with her just to talk to her about this.
