Seeing how nervous he was, He Jing put away her joking thoughts and became serious, "Yeah, I know, don't worry."

"If I really encounter something, I will definitely not confront it head-on."

After hearing her assurance, Zhou Qianan breathed a sigh of relief, and then he suddenly thought of something and asked, "Why haven't I seen you take a shower recently?"

A few months ago, He Jing couldn't stand even a little sweat, but now she hasn't been seen at all.

Zhou Qian was very curious.

He Jing raised the corners of her lips slightly and smiled, "Nothing."

"I'm just used to it." He Jing shrugged. "Besides, it's so hot in this weather, there's no difference whether I wash or not."

Zhou Qian lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "From now on, we will build a special shower room in our house, and then put a large vat in it for your lunchtime water."

It's just a shower, no big deal.

If Zhou Qian'an can't even satisfy this, then he's not a man.

"That's not necessary." He Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "In a few years, the village should be able to use running water."

should.

He Jing wasn't very clear either.

However, even if it cannot be used, there is a well.

By then every household will have it, and they can take a bath whenever they want.

Very convenient.

Zhou Qianan suddenly realized, "It should be soon."

"I heard from my eldest brother that the town has already mentioned it."

He Jing looked up at the sky. It was really hot and humid in the afternoon, and there was no wind.

Standing under the tree, my back was covered in sweat.

She didn't need to look to know that her clothes were soaked with sweat.

Wiping the sweat off her face, He Jing exhaled hot air, "Two o'clock in the afternoon is the hottest time, let's go back."

"It's very hot outside. You might get heatstroke." After saying that, He Jing went to see Zhou Qian'an. When he came, he didn't hold an umbrella or hold something to block the sun.

"You too, don't leave for a while, I'll get you a hat." He Jing glanced at him and continued, "Don't underestimate the sun, you might get a heat stroke if you walk for a while."

"If it's mild, it's okay. If it's severe, it can be fatal."

Zhou Qian felt that He Jing was exaggerating. In previous years, had he ever worn a hat or held an umbrella when he went out?

"Don't bother, it will only be a short while. I can walk fast and will be home soon." Zhou Qian'an stopped He Jing.

He Jing turned around and glared at him, "If I don't see anyone when I come out later, then you just wait."

Very fierce.

But Zhou Qian'an liked it very much. He stood happily under the tree, folding his arms and waiting for He Jing to come out.

He Jing trotted back to the house.

The door of Zhou Cuihong's house next door opened again.

When Zhou Qian heard it, he looked over and saw that it was Liu Xiangqiao again. His face immediately turned cold and he turned around without even looking at her.

Seeing this, Liu Xiangqiao bit her lower lip and felt so angry that her teeth were itching. If it weren’t for Zhou Cuihong’s demands, she would have wanted this and that.

She wouldn't run out in the middle of the day.

Liu Xiangqiao pretended not to see Zhou Qian'an, slung her vegetable basket, snorted, and walked in another direction.

The afternoon sun is scorching.

When the light falls on a person, it cannot be said to be warm, but rather scorching hot.

Crack the egg and place it on the ground; it will be cooked in a short while.

But in this era, no one is so extravagant.

Zhou Qian'an waited for a while and He Jing came out.

She took out the hat that she usually wore when it rained, which was a rain hat.

And a water bottle.

Zhou Qian saw it, licked his lips, and realized that his mouth was dry.

"It's boiled water." He Jing came over and handed the water over first. "After talking for a while, you must be thirsty."

"Drink it and then go back."

Zhou Qianan looked at the water bottle, which was quite new. "Is it yours?"

"Of course it's mine. Why would I give someone else's to you?" He Jing snorted, "You may be happy about it, but I am not."

"I dare to use it because it's yours." Zhou Qian'an was very direct and drank it directly after picking it up.

The water is cold. When it goes down my throat, it feels cool and comfortable, and my whole body feels cooled down instantly.

But soon I started sweating.

Zhou Qian wiped the sweat off his face and shook the bottle, "I've finished it."

"Put on your hat." There was no other hat in the room, only this hat.

You can only make do with it for now.

Zhou Qi'an didn't dislike it at all. He put on the hat happily and smiled at her, "How is it? Isn't it handsome?"

He Jing rolled her eyes at him in annoyance, and seeing that his hat was not worn straight, she stood on tiptoe and straightened it for him, then patted him on the shoulder and straightened his collar.

"Okay, let's go back."

"You can bring the hat back in the evening, or you can bring it tomorrow," said He Jing.

Zhou Qianan adjusted his hat and nodded in response, "Yeah."

"I'll come over when I'm free in the evening."

"Remember what I said." Zhou Qi'an took two steps forward and looked back, "Go back."

"Yeah." He Jing agreed, but still looked for a while before turning back.

The sun was shining brightly on the earth.

The yellow mud on the ground cracked, and cracks spread all over the road like a spider web.

The cow dung on the road was also limp, without flies hovering around, and seemed a little lonely.

Zhou Qian'an was walking in the sun wearing a rain hat. Although he could still feel the heat coming from all directions, his head did not feel like it was being steamed.

He happily reached out to touch the top of the rain hat, but then stopped because he was burned.

"This sun is really strong."

"I just don't know when it will rain." Zhou Qian looked up at the sky. It was blue with very few white clouds.

There were floods in April and May, but it’s so hot in July and August.

This kind of weather is really uncomfortable.

-

It's almost the fifteenth.

Shi Chunlan looked at the calendar on the wall with a frown on her face.

Ever since He Fangfang said that, Shi Chunlan no longer wanted to go to Yunluo City.

She felt that if she went, He Fangfang would only hate her even more.

But she didn't know how to start.

He Jing came in and saw her looking at the calendar. It happened to be the 15th, so she subconsciously thought she was calculating the time, "Mom, didn't big brother say that we'll leave in two days?"

Shi Chunlan turned around when she heard the voice and said, "No, I was just thinking that we are just going to show up, and we don't necessarily have to eat."

He Jing thought for a while and said, "Since we are all leaving, it's not a bad idea not to stay for dinner."

"And we won't do anything, just eat and leave."

Shi Chunlan hummed absentmindedly, put down the calendar, wet her fingers with saliva, and turned to the day of He Jing's engagement.

"We have to come back in two days." Shi Chunlan looked at the date and said, "You are getting engaged. Although our family doesn't have much money, we will do what we need to do."

"Don't let people look down on you."

He Jing didn't say anything, just stood behind her and looked at the date.

Shi Chunlan turned it over all at once.

This was a very common thing, but it made He Jing's nose sour.

She seemed to have really entered Shi Chunlan's heart.
