While eating the sweet potatoes in the bowl, she suddenly thought of her previous life.

At that time, she had just been in the countryside for more than half a year. Because she had no strength, she earned very few work points and did not have enough to eat every day.

She was favored by Shen Nanfeng, but she never stayed with him, so Shen Nanfeng targeted her everywhere.

In addition, because of some conflicts with a female educated youth named Xie Rou, another female educated youth in the same dormitory disliked her and always left her behind when cooking.

She also thought about doing it herself, but she was the last one to come home every day and really had no time. It could be said that she couldn't even afford to eat even if she produced food.

Later, another female educated youth in the same dormitory couldn't stand it anymore and secretly gave her a roasted sweet potato.

It was the best thing she had ever eaten.

"I've been busy these past two days. Did you miss me?"

Zhong Heyang saw that she was eating with great relish, and a hint of smile appeared in his eyes.

Lin Ziqiu took a few bites and felt that the two of them were a little too ambiguous, and her face felt a little hot.

"No, I know you're busy."

She shook her head subconsciously, not wanting Zhong Heyang to know that she had lost sleep because of his absence.

Hearing her answer, Zhong Heyang couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes, "I'll take you to work tomorrow morning, and pick you up home in the evening."

"Actually, there's no need to be so troublesome. I can do it alone." Lin Ziqiu shook his head and refused.

She simply felt that this was a bit troublesome.

Zhong Heyang thought she was avoiding him, "It's only natural to give your own wife away."

Seeing that he insisted, Lin Ziqiu had no choice but to agree, "Thank you for your hard work."

"If my wife thinks I've worked hard, she can give me some reward."

"What...what reward?"

Zhong Heyang leaned closer, and a handsome face enlarged in front of him. Lin Ziqiu shrank his neck and stepped back, unable to help swallowing.

"you…"

Seeing how nervous she was, Zhong Heyang moved closer, and the distance between them was shortened again.

Lin Ziqiu still wanted to hide.

Zhong Heyang was one step faster than her and put his arms around her.

"Are you afraid of me?"

The man's warm breath sprayed on Lin Ziqiu's ear. Lin Ziqiu's eyes avoided, "No... no, why should I be afraid of you?"

Zhong Heyang jokingly asked, "Then why are you hiding?"

Lin Ziqiu paused, then turned away awkwardly: "I'm just too tired. I need to rest."

Zhong Heyang didn't expose her excuse, and pinched her face amusingly, "Okay, then I'll bring you some water tonight so you can wash up."

Lin Ziqiu grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "I can do these things myself..."

Zhong Heyang held her hand and said, "I'd love to."

"I'll do it myself..."

Lin Ziqiu was still a little resistant in her heart. They were downstairs now, and if her grandmother saw Zhong Heyang pouring water for her feet, she would feel uncomfortable.

If I meet Zhong Xuexi again, it will be a disaster.

Lin Ziqiu didn't have time to eat the sweet potatoes at this moment, and followed Zhong Heyang to fetch water.

The two of them were fighting over the water in the basin, and the water spilled all over Zhong Heyang.

And the water happened to wet Zhong Heyang's thighs.

Zhong Heyang looked down at the water on his body. It would be a lie to say he wasn't embarrassed.

Lin Ziqiu didn't dare to look any further and snatched the basin from Zhong Heyang's hand. "I'm so sorry, go change your clothes and I can carry it in myself."

Zhong Xuexi happened to come back.

Seeing the two of them standing there, I looked at them curiously for a few more times, "Brother, you are already so old, why are you still like Xiaoyu?"

Lin Ziqiu suppressed his laughter and helped to explain, "No..."

Zhong Xuexi didn't listen at all, and said sarcastically: "You don't wash it yourself, and you want her to wash it for you, how awesome."

Zhong Heyang's face turned completely black.

Lin Ziqiu was too lazy to explain, so as not to make things worse.

She put the basin on the ground, then took Zhong Heyang's hand and went straight upstairs.

The two returned to the house, and she found some clean clothes for Zhong Heyang. "Your sister also misunderstood. I'll explain to her later. This is all my fault. Don't take it to heart."

Zhong Heyang had a tense face and didn't say anything.

At this moment, he really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Lin Ziqiu was afraid of hurting his pride, so she kept suppressing her laughter. "You should change your clothes first. I'm going out."

When she finished her shower and went upstairs, Zhong Heyang was already lying down with his back to her.

Lin Ziqiu took out a small wooden jar from the drawer.

Inside was the body lotion she had taken out from the space earlier and squeezed into this sealed jar.

Her skin becomes dry when the seasons change, so she needs to apply some body lotion to moisturize it.

After applying, Lin Ziqiu asked softly: "Are you asleep? I'm going to turn off the lights!"

The man next to her didn't move, so Lin Ziqiu thought he was asleep and turned off the light.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she lay down, she was hugged by the man.

"daughter in law."

Lin Ziqiu was startled, her breathing stagnant for a moment due to nervousness. "Why aren't you asleep yet? I thought you were asleep!"

Zhong Heyang said in a muffled voice, "I can't sleep without you by my side."

Lin Ziqiu's ears burned, "You're lying."

"I couldn't sleep last night."

Zhong Heyang originally planned to pick her up from get off work tonight, but as soon as he walked out of the compound, he saw her coming back on a bicycle.

And the dog's tail behind her.

So he deliberately hid himself, and only when he saw Lin Ziqiu returning to the compound did he stop Tian Xiaobo halfway.

Zhong Heyang is always calm and composed about everything, except in front of Lin Ziqiu, where he is afraid that she will leave him or be taken away by someone else.

"You have insomnia too?"

Zhong Heyang thought he had misheard, "Huh?"

Lin Ziqiu reacted and immediately interrupted him: "You can't be like this. If you don't get enough rest, it will cause great damage to your body."

"Are you concerned about me?"

Zhong Heyang felt a little sour. Other people's wives wished their husbands would think about them every day.

Why is it that when it comes to her, she doesn't seem to care at all.

Lin Ziqiu nodded: "Well, you are the pillar of the family, it is my duty to care about you."

Zhong Heyang's voice was a little low, and he asked unwillingly, "Is that all?"

The night was too dark, and Lin Ziqiu couldn't see Zhong Heyang's expression at the moment, but she felt that his tone seemed a little unhappy.

"Because you're my husband, of course."

Zhong Heyang was silent for a long time, so long that when Lin Ziqiu was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a man's voice in his ear, "Wife, do you love me?"

Lin Ziqiu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

This question seemed to embarrass her.

If I tell him that I don't love him, he will probably suffer from insomnia.

Lin Ziqiu decisively chose to escape, pretending to be asleep and not saying a word.

Zhong Heyang didn't wait for her response and asked softly, "Are you asleep?"

The only answer he got was still endless silence and Lin Ziqiu's gentle breathing.

He took a deep breath, buried his head in Lin Ziqiu's neck, and hugged her tightly.

It seems that only in this way will Lin Ziqiu not leave her.

……

the other side.

After a tiring day, Lin Mengyao fell on the kang as soon as she returned to the educated youth site and didn't want to move at all.

Qiao Yanyu sat beside her, pounding her legs and complaining, "That little bitch surnamed Xie is really getting away with it! We're working our ass off in the fields, but she's so lucky! Just by talking, a bunch of male educated youth come running to ask if she's tired!"

"She's a stinking bitch!"

Chi Nian, who had just entered the room, heard her cursing and quickly closed the door.

"Yanyu, please keep your voice down, or someone will hear you."
