It was almost noon when Xu Yan and Li Aihua arrived at the door of Xiao Xue Tailor Shop again. Just as Li Aihua said, there were quite a lot of people looking for Xiao Xue Tailor.

Although material resources were scarce and many families took two or three years to make a set of clothes, there were still many people in front of the tailor shop.

Li Aihua pointed to the small wooden sign standing by the wall and said, "This is Xiao Xue's tailor shop."

Xu Yan glanced at the small wooden sign.

The sign was quite simple, like a piece of wood picked up from the roadside, with the three big words "Tailor Shop" scrawled on it.

Without a junior high school or high school diploma, it is probably impossible to understand his cursive writing.

"I didn't expect that tailor Xue looked so gentle," Xu Yan looked at the wooden board, "but in fact..."

"Actually what?" someone asked.

"Actually," Xu Yan was about to say, but she realized something was wrong. She looked up and saw the man standing at the door, looking at her leisurely.

Xu Yan: “…”

"Actually, he's quite polite," Xu Yan said aloud.

Xue Ning smiled.

After Xu Yan entered the shop, he found that what Li Aihua said was indeed true. This man's craftsmanship was indeed very good and the clothes were made very finely.

"What kind of thing do you want? For adults or children? Have you measured the size?" Xue Ning sat on a stool next to the sewing machine, holding a notebook and writing the date on it.

"There are both children and adults," Xu Yan retracted his gaze and took out the cloth from the backpack.

He pointed to the cloth with Dabao and Xiaobao's names written on it and told them their sizes. Then he took out the cloth he bought for Xie Zhuo and told them the size as well.

From what she said, it was obviously the size of a man. Xue Ning tilted his head and paused for a few seconds before writing it down in the notebook.

"And this piece of cloth," Xu Yan pointed to another piece of light linen brown cloth, "make two pieces, one in the size I just gave you, and the other in my size."

Xue Ning paused again.

He glanced at the girl in front of him again.

She is young but very pretty. You can tell she didn’t grow up in the countryside. So these two pieces of clothing…

Xu Yan didn't know what the person in front of her was thinking. She turned her eyes again and paused when she saw the clock hanging on the wall.

It’s almost half past eleven.

It was cloudy today and there was no sun, so they didn't have much time to go shopping. They didn't expect it to be so late.

"How many days will it take to complete?" Xu Yan asked.

"Hmm?" Xue Ning almost didn't react. He coughed lightly before saying, "There are a lot of orders. It will take about two weeks."

Xu Yan nodded, didn't say much, paid the deposit and left with Li Aihua.

"Everyone has gone far away," a voice suddenly came from behind him. Xue Ning retracted his gaze and turned to look at the person who spoke.

"are you……"

"No," Xue Ning frowned, "Don't talk nonsense."

"I'm talking nonsense?" The young girl's voice suddenly rose. "You have been keeping your eyes on her. After you opened the door and came in, you looked outside at least four or five times. You were waiting for her to come!"

Xu Yan didn't know what was happening behind him.

She and Li Aihua bought some more things and when they rushed home, it was exactly twelve o'clock noon.

Xie Zhuo sat at the gate in surprise, while Dabao and Xiaobao squatted beside him and played with small wooden sticks.

When he saw her coming, he rushed over from a distance.

"Third aunt!"

"Aunt San, you're back!"

Xu Yan looked at his two clean and cute children, and thought of the dirty child he met in the morning. He took out two candies from his pocket and handed them to them.

"Did you listen to what your uncle said this morning?" Xu Yan walked home holding one of their hands each.

Xie Zhuo also stood up from the stool and came over to take the backpack on her back.

Xu Yan smiled at him.

Her eyebrows were curved, and her long, black eyelashes curled up. A strand of hair was blown to the corner of her mouth by the wind. Before she could push it away, Xie Zhuo tucked it behind her ear.

"I'm back," Xie Zhuo said.

"Well, I'm back," Xu Yan said.

For lunch today, Xie Zhuo cooked corn and also cooked mung bean soup using the method Xu Yan used to make last time. Finally, he steamed a few buns made of two-grain flour and served them with a pickled cucumber and some sauced chili peppers.

Very simple.

It's also very rich.

The mung bean soup has been cooled in advance and you can drink it right away.

After washing his hands, Xu Yan sat at the table to drink soup when he remembered that his tongue was burned. He felt a strange feeling in his mouth when drinking the soup.

"What's wrong? Doesn't it taste good?" Xie Zhuo noticed her abnormality at the first moment.

"I got burned while eating," Xu Yan frowned uncomfortably, "and my tongue feels numb."

"Let me see," Xie Zhuo frowned.

Before Xu Yan could react, he pinched her chin.

"Open your mouth," Xie Zhuo said.

Xu Yan: “…”

Seeing that she still hadn't moved, Xie Zhuo gently pinched her again, "Don't do anything else, I want to see if it's serious."

"?"

Xu Yan discovered that since that night, this man's shamelessness had really grown exponentially, and he could really say anything.

"Aunt San, is it in pain?" Dabao and Xiaobao also looked worried.

"It doesn't hurt." Xu Yan raised his hand and patted Xie Zhuo's hand, then stepped back a little. "It was burned this morning, but it's much better now."

After saying that, he remembered that he had brought them some fried cakes, so he stood up and got them.

Xie Zhuo still frowned, looking a little unhappy.

Xu Yan looked at Dabao and Xiaobao who were jumping on the fried cakes, and reached out to pull Xie Zhuo, "Come with me."

Xie Zhuo stood up and followed Xu Yan into the house.

Who knew that as soon as he stepped in, Xu Yan opened his mouth and said, "Look, if you don't let me watch, I won't eat today."

Xie Zhuo said nothing.

"Hurry up," Xu Yan patted his arm, "I haven't eaten anything else this morning..."

She had just said half of her words when Xie Zhuo suddenly came over and gently nudged her.

Because her mouth was open, Xie Zhuo's movements were smoother.

The soft and warm tip of the tongue went straight into her mouth.

Time is short.

After a few seconds, he bit her lower lip gently again.

Xu Yan: “…”

"You," she looked at Xie Zhuo.

"There are no burns or blisters inside," Xie Zhuo said seriously, "The light in the room is too dim, so it will be easier to check this way."

Ha ha.

In her entire life, she had never heard of anyone getting blisters in the mouth from burns.

"Thank you, baby," Xu Yan said, "You are really moving towards being a gangster now, do you know that?"

"You are my wife," Xie Zhuo said.

That being said, but when walking out of the house, Xu Yan saw Xie Zhuo's red ears again.

After the family of four finished their meal, Xu Yan told Xie Zhuo what happened in the morning, and Xie Zhuo frowned as he listened.

"I'll go with you next time," Xie Zhuo said.

"Yeah," Xu Yan nodded, "I was thinking this morning that it would be nice if you were here, but it's okay, Bu is coming back, but that Qingniu Brigade..."

"That brigade is in a bad geographical location," Xie Zhuo thought for a moment and said, "and the educated youth there don't deserve sympathy. I've heard of the man you mentioned."

Xu Yan looked at him.

"Those who came to cut in line earlier than you all have bad character," Xie Zhuo said, glancing at Xu Yan.

"Hmm?" Xu Yan blinked.

"The two bad elements who were sent to their brigade were tortured to death by them," said Xie Zhuo.
