He Jing's silence made Xie Ying'an put away the smile on his face. He suddenly looked at her awkwardly, "That's not what I meant."
"No, you are right." He Jing shook her head but did not deny her words.
"I was wrong just now. I said bad things about Wang Qiang." He Jing apologized.
This made Xie Ying'an not sure how to react.
The two looked at each other, were silent for a moment, and then smiled in tacit understanding.
The bed was cramped.
The two of them half-lay down and looked at the mosquito net together.
The brand new mosquito net has accumulated a little dust.
There was mugwort burning in the house, there was smoke but no mosquitoes.
"Do you think it smells strong?" He Jing asked.
Xie Yingan shook his head, "No, I was a little uncomfortable at first."
"It smells pretty good right now."
He Jing laughed and let out a long breath, "Zhou Qian and I will be engaged next month, but I never thought about getting married so soon."
"I feel like I'm only eighteen, a prime time." He Jing narrowed her eyes. "I'm not saying these words to persuade you, or convince you, I'm just telling you my plan."
Xie Ying'an hummed, "My previous attitude was also wrong."
"I was impulsive and said something I shouldn't have said. I apologize to you."
Apologize.
As an adult, I say this kind of thing much less often.
In the past, when we had quarrels or disagreements, I would always find a lame excuse and move on from it. I would never say, "I was wrong, I'm sorry."
But now, Xie Ying'an has apologized.
He Jing thought of the agreement with Huang Xiaoyue.
After blinking, He Jing suddenly laughed out loud, which made Xie Ying'an feel very puzzled. "What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing, I just suddenly remembered something..."
…………
It was dawn, and after the rooster crowed, He Jing opened her eyes and Xie Ying'an next to her woke up.
"So early?" He Jing looked out the window. At this time, it was probably around half past five.
"I have to go back today." Xie Ying'an walked past her, came down to put on his shoes, picked up the comb aside and started combing his hair.
"Didn't you say last night?" Xie Ying'an said as she combed her hair, "You said it would take thirty to forty minutes to walk from here to town."
"I have to catch the bus, so I have to get up early."
He Jing let out a sigh, then got up, smoothed her long hair that had been messed up by sleep, and looked at Xie Ying'an's long hair.
Her hair was black, shiny and smooth, reaching her waist. It was braided into two braids, one on each shoulder, and finally tied with a red rope.
It is the simplest and most suitable hairstyle.
He Jing watched for a while. She would be taking a ride alone later. If she wasn’t outstanding, she wouldn’t be attractive. But she couldn’t be so invisible that no one would notice if she disappeared.
"What are you going to wear later?" He Jing looked at the clothes she brought. The set she brought yesterday had been washed and twisted hard, so it was probably not completely dry yet.
It can't be worn.
The outfit she is wearing now is very similar to the costumes of the art troupe, but not exactly the same. It is just an imitation.
It was very popular in the past few years.
He Jing looked at it for a while, and there was really nothing to decorate, so she could only remind her, "If someone asks you for help, be alert and don't think about helping alone."
"If you're inside the station, go find the ticket seller. If you're outside, go find a tall and strong-looking man for help."
"Jingjing, don't worry so much." Xie Ying'an listened to her words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "It's peaceful now, not as scary as you think."
"Besides, didn't I come here alone?"
He Jing glared at him and said, "That's why I said you are very brave."
"..."Xie Ying'an was silent.
It didn't take long to comb the hair, and the two girls came out after they finished tidying up.
Today it was Xu Zhaodi's turn to cook. She got up early and was a little surprised to see the two of them coming out. She curled her lips and greeted them with a smile, but did not ask them to help.
"Good morning, sister-in-law." Xie Ying'an took the initiative to greet her.
The He family gets along really well with each other.
Xie Ying'an was truly happy for He Jing.
"Good morning." Xu Zhaodi waved her hand. "Why are you up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"No, I have to catch the bus later." Xie Ying'an hadn't told the He family yet, "I have to go back today."
I'll be here for just one day and then I'll be leaving.
Xu Zhaodi was stunned. "Ah? So fast?"
"How many more days will you stay?"
Xie Yingan shook his head, "I just took two days off."
"Then I'll boil some eggs for you to eat on the way." Xu Zhaodi became generous, "And I'll give you some dried fish to go with the porridge."
"Jingjing, you come and help too." Xu Zhaodi raised her chin towards He Jing, "This car ride is hard and uncomfortable."
"You need to eat better."
Xie Ying'an saw that everything was arranged and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Xu Zhaodi thought she was embarrassed, so she explained, "They are all laid by our hens. They don't cost much."
"Besides, you are my sister-in-law's good friend, and you came from so far away. I feel embarrassed to just give you eggs."
"No, no." Xie Ying'an hurriedly shook his head and waved his hands, "It's fine."
Yesterday, Xie Ying'an chatted with He Jing for an entire afternoon, and only then did she realize that life in the Hekou Production Brigade was not very good.
The people here may not be able to eat a bite of meat all year round. Eggs are precious, so people usually don't want to eat them. They save them and exchange them for other things when they go to the market.
In Yunluo City, her life couldn't be said to be very good, but it was still okay to eat meat three or four times in half a year.
As for eggs, we can’t say that we can eat them every day, but they are not so precious either.
He Jing watched the two of them pushing each other around without coming to a conclusion, so she suppressed her laughter and said, "Ying'an, just listen to my second sister-in-law's arrangements."
"It's a four-hour journey, but it's not far. We can't get off the bus on the way. Eat a good breakfast to keep yourself from getting hungry."
"Well, thank you." Xie Ying'an no longer refused.
Xu Zhaodi was busying herself happily, and asked the two girls to go out and wash up.
At breakfast, everyone was surprised to know that Xie Ying'an was going back.
Shi Chunlan uttered an "eh" and immediately frowned, "I haven't prepared a gift yet."
"We haven't made oil cakes at home, and we haven't dried the peanuts."
"Mom, we can make something durable and mail it to them later. It will be the same." He Jing knew that this was an engagement gift and was to be given away.
Xie Yingan finally realized what was going on. He was stunned for a moment, then found it funny. “I didn’t even prepare a gift for Jingjing.”
It's embarrassing.
"No need." He Jing shook her head. "It won't be too late to send it after I get married."
As for Xie Ying'an's marriage, it has been confirmed, but the date has not yet been set.
She didn't know when.
However, Xie Ying'an will write a letter to tell He Jing.
He Jing will prepare gifts at that time.
As for the wedding, whether I can attend it.
She wasn't sure either.
