peach beauty

More than half of the families in Taoyuan Village rely on the peach groves for food, and Uncle Wang's family is one of them. When the sun sets and the weather is not so hot, they will go to the mountain to pick peaches.

Cheng Wanqiu was bored staying at home, thinking that Uncle Wang had helped their family so much, so he went out to the vegetable market to buy some mung beans and came back to cook a big pot of mung bean soup, let it cool down, added some ice cubes to it, and Together with Wang Jinyuan, the two went to Houshan Taolin with a cauldron.

There are a lot of people picking peaches on the mountain. Everyone wears a sunshade hat and a towel to wipe sweat. The large water bottle is brought wherever they go to replenish water at any time.

Because the peach forest is so big, it took Cheng Wanqiu and the others some time to find Uncle Wang and Aunt Qin.

Cheng Wanqiu took out the disposable plastic bowls he bought specially from the grocery store, Wang Jinyuan was in charge of making the mung bean soup, and he was in charge of distributing the mung bean soup.

The two cooperated tacitly, and they were so busy that they were sweating to finish the big pot of mung bean soup.

Wang Bo drank three bowls in a row. The ice-cold mung bean soup was sweetened just right. He drank it so that he felt comfortable physically and mentally.

Cheng Wanqiu was very embarrassed by his praise, packed up the things he brought and was about to leave, Wang Bo stopped him and handed him a basket of peaches, all the peaches in the basket were beautiful and sweet at first sight.

Cheng Wanqiu couldn't shirk it, so he had to go down the mountain alone with the pot and the basket, but Wang Jinyuan didn't want to stay and help, so he didn't go with him.

The road to the back mountain is not that complicated, Cheng Wanqiu fully remembers how he got here, not to mention that going down the mountain is easier than going up the mountain, so Cheng Wanqiu returned to Taoyuan Village from the back mountain very quickly.

He was thinking about the fact that he hadn't bought the food for the evening, and was anxious to go home and put away his things before going out to buy food.

When passing by the canteen, Cheng Wanqiu had already walked a few steps and then suddenly turned around, put down the pot in his hand, and took out four or five peaches with one hand and put them on the glass cabinet of the canteen.

The uncle who was watching TV turned his head and looked at him suspiciously, "For me?"

Cheng Wanqiu hummed, "You keep two for Lin Chu, and eat the rest yourself."

The uncle raised his chin, "here, here you go, give it to him yourself."

Cheng Wanqiu was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw Lin Chu walking towards him casually, and glanced at him indifferently, "What are you doing?"

The uncle answered slowly for Cheng Wanqiu: "I'm here to share the peaches, and I'm in your favor."

Standing beside Cheng Wanqiu, Lin Chu opened the door of the freezer and took out a bottle of iced water. He ignored Cheng Wanqiu's blank stare, and while scanning the QR code to pay, he said, "You said I was cute yesterday, didn't I?" ?”

The uncle looked at the TV with a suppressed smile on his face.

After paying the money, Lin Chu unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip of ice water. He turned his head slightly, and raised the tails of his long and narrow eyes. His dark eyes were so beautiful that he looked forward to them, clearly imprinting Cheng Wanqiu's dazed expression at this moment, " What on earth do you want?"

Cheng Wanqiu: "...I didn't think about why."

Lin Chu sneered sarcastically, as if he was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, took the cigarettes and instant noodles that the uncle gave him, turned around and was about to leave.

Cheng Wanqiu looked at his pink hair that was curled up in sleep, and couldn't help but said, "I just want to make friends with you."

Lin Chu stopped suddenly when he heard the sound, and turned to look at him.

Cheng Wanqiu thought he was going to mock her, but Lin Chu looked at him with a dazed expression, "...you want to make friends with me?"

Cheng Wanqiu hummed, bent down and picked up the pot on the ground, turned around and left, leaving a sentence: "It's fine if you don't want to."

Lin Chu squinted his eyes to see his back going away, and suddenly sneered for a long time.

The uncle glanced at him, "You are honest, don't go too far."

Lin Chu didn't say anything, turned around and took away two of the peaches left by Cheng Wanqiu.

Unexpectedly, the uncle let out a yo, this scene was so strange that he poked his head out to see it, and shouted, "Don't you not like peaches?!"

Lin Chu left without looking back. When he got home, he put all his things on the table, lit a cigarette and looked at the two peaches on the table through the smoke, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

He has no shortage of friends, and there are countless people who want to be friends with him. He still has a lot of failed new friend applications on WeChat, which he has never paid attention to.

But...that person...is still a bit different.

Lin Chu has heard all kinds of compliments, praise him for his good looks, praise him for his handsomeness, praise him for coolness, he has even seen people praise him for his beauty directly in front of his face, but no one has ever praised him for his cuteness.

So when Lin Chu heard these two words from the uncle, what was his first reaction?Who is cute?I? ?

This extremely unfamiliar compliment made Lin Chu doubt his life for a moment. He actually knew himself very clearly. Although he was good-looking, his face was smelly. He didn't dare to say anything in front of him, and privately told his children to stay away from him and not to approach him.

Occasionally, one or two rebellious and disobedient people insisted on approaching him, and he basically scared away when he saw a black face.

So no matter how you think about it, he and cuteness are inseparable, so why does this Cheng think he is cute?Still want to make friends with him?He never gave him a good face.

Lin Chu couldn't figure it out for a long time, so he decided to ask in person next time.

Cheng Wanqiu didn't know that what he said made Lin Chu think a lot. He didn't think about it at all when he said it. He just blurted it out naturally when he saw the bird's nest-like pink hair.

He only hoped that Lin Chu wouldn't misunderstand him, he didn't mean to offend him, whether it was buying popsicles for him or keeping peaches, it was all because of his thinking and then he did it, there was no other meaning.

So after that day, Cheng Wanqiu intentionally or unintentionally avoided the canteen, and took a detour from the other side to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.

Lin Chu is a frequent visitor to the canteen, and the possibility of meeting him is much higher when you walk to the canteen than at the entrance of the village.

Under Cheng Wanqiu's deliberate avoidance, the two didn't meet each other for several days.

Seeing that Lin Chu's eyes always drift towards Cheng's house unconsciously every time he came to buy water and cigarettes, the uncle laughed at him unceremoniously, "Don't look, if they don't go here, I'll tell you that you should change your face." , It’s not easy for someone who wants to make friends with you, you are scared away, and you will not be able to marry a wife in the future.”

Lin Chu gave the uncle a sideways glance, "Who said I saw it?"

"That's right, you didn't watch it, you didn't wait, he had a good time with the Wang family boy, so he ignored you."

As soon as the uncle finished speaking, the boy from the Wang family came over with a plate of dumplings, humming as he walked in a good mood. He saw Lin Chu only glanced at each other, and then continued to walk towards Cheng's house.

The uncle tapped the glass cabinet with his thumb and said what I said.

Lin Chu ignored him, took his things and turned to go home.

As soon as Wang Jinyuan came in and put down the dumplings, he told Cheng Wanqiu that when he came, he passed the canteen and saw Lin Chu.

Cheng Wanqiu was checking emails on his laptop, and he just hummed when he heard it, and didn't pay much attention, "He often buys things in the canteen, and he is very addicted to cigarettes."

Wang Jinyuan asked suspiciously, "How do you know that he is addicted to cigarettes?"

"I see, I can't leave my cigarette." Cheng Wanqiu shook his head helplessly when he said this, "Smoking so fiercely at a young age."

Wang Jinyuan sighed, "No one cares about him, it must be because of his comfort. If I dare to smoke, my mother will break my leg."

Cheng Wanqiu twitched the corner of her lips lightly, said nothing, turned off the computer after replying to the email, got up and divided half of the dumplings brought by Wang Jinyuan, and took them to grandma's room.

When he came back, Wang Jinyuan was standing in front of the air conditioner, opened his collar to let the cold wind blow in, with a comfortable face, "Brother Wanqiu, your house is really nice, you can turn on the air conditioner at any time, we can only turn it on when we are sleeping. Open it, but not too low."

Cheng Wanqiu brought him a popsicle, "It's easy to catch a cold if you blow like this."

Wang Jinyuan took the popsicle and laughed twice, "It's okay, I'm in good health, and I don't catch a cold so easily. I'm more afraid of heatstroke than catching a cold. I think it's worse than catching a cold."

Cheng Wanqiu picked up the remote control and tuned the station to the weather forecast. The temperature will rise in two days.

While licking the popsicle, Wang Jinyuan said, "It's unnaturally hot today, and it won't do if it doesn't rain."

Cheng Wanqiu nodded in agreement, and asked, "Will Uncle Wang and the others go up the mountain tomorrow?"

"Yes, you may go up the mountain later in hot weather."

"Then I'll cook some mung bean soup for them tomorrow."

"Thank you, Brother Wanqiu!"

The next day, when Cheng Wanqiu was washing mung beans, he realized that there were not many mung beans left in the kitchen. He forgot to replenish them when he used them up last time. This amount is definitely not enough to cook a pot, so he had no choice but to go out and buy them.

Today's temperature is higher than yesterday's, and there is no wind at all, the leaves are quiet, and people's skin feels hot when they walk under the sun.

Grandma Cheng felt sorry for him and told him not to go to the vegetable market, but to go directly to the canteen to buy. She remembered that the canteen sold mung beans.

Cheng Wanqiu found an umbrella as a sunshade, and walked to the canteen under the umbrella.

The sun outside the umbrella was scorching hot, and it felt like the floor was so hot that you could fry eggs. He went to the canteen and asked the uncle if he had any mung beans.

Cheng Wanqiu had no choice but to go to the vegetable market once. He turned around and was about to go to the vegetable market with an umbrella in his hand, but when he turned his head, he saw Lin Chu walking out of the corner of the alley with a little floating footsteps. His face was so gloomy like never before. , as if condensing all the bad emotions, making people feel apprehensive at a glance.

Cheng Wanqiu stood there holding an umbrella and stared at him steadfastly. Lin Chu didn't even look at him when he walked past him. ice water.

Cheng Wanqiu noticed that when he went to pull the freezer door for the first time, he didn't touch it with his hands, as if he couldn't see clearly, and he also felt very strenuous when pulling the freezer.

Cheng Wanqiu's expression froze, she walked over and put an umbrella over his head to help him cover the scorching sun, "Lin Chu, you seem to have suffered from heat stroke."

Lin Chu was dizzy, nauseated, his eyes were blurry, and his throat was so dry that it hurt to swallow.

When people feel uncomfortable, their mood can be extremely bad. When he heard Cheng Wanqiu's voice, he cursed without raising his head, "Get lost."

No matter how good-tempered Cheng Wanqiu was, he wouldn't be able to remain indifferent when he heard a scroll. He grabbed Lin Chu's wrist without saying a word, left him the umbrella in his hand, and turned to leave.

Lin Chu didn't have the strength to hold the umbrella at all right now, almost as soon as Cheng Wanqiu turned around, the umbrella fell off his hand and fell to the ground.

Lin Chu looked at the umbrella on the ground, feeling extremely annoyed. He felt that Cheng Wanqiu was simply incomprehensible. He turned his head and wanted to curse, but suddenly felt everything in his field of vision turned upside down. Then his body softened and his eyes narrowed black.

In the moment before losing all consciousness, Lin Chu had a vague feeling as if he had been caught by someone.

Someone kept him from falling to the ground.
