Chapter 70 69. The smell of tea
When the morning sun rose, behind the tree house, a house with a solid foundation and quickly built with quick-drying materials was already sitting firmly there.
It has the same layout as a tree house. The roof is made of light gray tiles, which reflects a faint brilliance in the sun.
It is said that this reflective material is most easily observed when vegetation is lush, and it has become the standard for everyone to dress or build houses today.
There is a promenade at the door, connecting the hut and the toilet. The toilet is also newly built. New materials are used in the septic tank, so you no longer have to step on a simple pit to go to the toilet. .
Huaiyu woke up from his stupor and accidentally picked up a handful of silk floss with a special touch.
She took a moment to remember what happened yesterday, and then looked at the bedside -
There was only an empty vase, no roses, and no ice sculptures.
The chicks seem to be living well in the warm haystack. You can hear the sound of chirping at this moment, which means they are probably hungry.
However, before Huaiyu got up to feed them, he heard Zhou Qian ask outside the door:
"Huai Yu, are you awake?"
He looked at Huai Yu who opened the door curtain, and his face relaxed at this moment: "Come and see your new house?"
There was a hint of tiredness in his eyebrows, but he also felt a sense of accomplishment: "I brought the things you asked for overnight, go and have a look."
Huaiyu then smiled, and then He said to Zhou Qian: "Brother, I didn't blame you. Don't feel guilty."
As a defender, if you receive an order from someone of a higher level than yourself, then there is a problem if you don't follow it. .
Moreover, no matter what, Zhou Qian had been working hard to help him from beginning to end, and having his family destroyed was not what he wanted, so Huaiyu told the truth.
"I was just too sad yesterday and wanted everyone to be sad together, so I didn't say anything."
Zhou Qian paused, then laughed again: "I know . ”
“You don’t act like a coquettish person at all when you’re angry...Young girl, you’re quite good at saying soft things when trying to please others.”
“But you don’t have to be like this.” br>
"You have been living your life in a down-to-earth manner, whether you are acting coquettishly and saying nice things, or you are too sad and want others to be sad with you. These are all human instincts to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."
" Xiaoyu, I know that your life must have been particularly difficult in the past, which is why you were cautious in everything, even when you spoke, you habitually showed weakness, with the intention of relying on others..."
The morning sun shone inch by inch, and everything in front of you was plated. There was a layer of bright and hazy golden light.
As for Zhou Qian in the morning light, it was more like being enveloped in a hazy light golden mist at this moment. Even his voice was as gentle as morning dew, without any lethality.
But when the words penetrate the core, they are as cold as morning dew.
"If you want to call me Captain Zhou, call me Captain Zhou. If you want to call me brother, call me brother. Whatever you call me, I know you have been working hard."
"So, call me whatever you want. Don't apologize, either. Don’t be burdened.”
He smiled casually, not knowing about Huaiyu’s amnesia.
Huaiyu didn’t understand it completely.
But she clearly sensed the kindness inside.
And...myself [I had a hard time in the past, but now I am used to being obedient and soft-spoken]...
Is that so?
When you want to achieve your goal, you will softly call your brother, sister, uncle, aunt, but when you are angry, you will call each other coldly.
Is this her instinct?
There were layers of doubts in her heart, but she clearly felt that she was thinking like "it's not me who is wrong"!
Now I am even more distressed.
Because the character before amnesia went from a eldest lady with two hundred male servants to a strong peasant woman who knew how to farm. Now...
It can't be just a cup of tea. A strong peasant woman who can steer with the wind, right?
It’s impossible not to be strong, after all, she can do so many kinds of farm work. The troubles of the past were really entangled, so she simply put them behind her and snorted at the moment: "I can call you whatever you want."
"Yes!" Zhou Qian laughed instead: "Little girl, there are relatives who dote on you in the city. If you should be bolder, be bolder - come and see your new home!"
< br>The new home has snow-white walls, an ocher red door, and a large lock that looks very strong.
Zhou Qian handed over the keys: "There are only three. You must put them away, otherwise if you forget the keys, it will be quite laborious to break the lock."
Huai Yu But his expression became tangled and he was not very happy.
“This house is like a dream…”
She muttered: "Looking at it is like looking at a stranger's house."
Zhou Qian patted her shoulder: "Of course, I built it brick by brick, it's nothing like this." There are definitely differences. But you have to look forward."
"General Lin, a gentle person, should also hope that your life will get better and better."
< br>“If there are not enough people to help build a house, it will be difficult to build this house in ten years by yourself.”
“And a lot of good materials were used this time. Although It was built overnight, but this is all the experience we accumulated during the war. It is not afraid of strong winds and rains, and it will not be so wet.”
He pushed Huaiyu's back gently: "Let's take a look at your house."
The smooth key easily opened the alloy lock.
Opening the door, the early morning sunlight shines in. Whether it is the extra smooth new cement floor, the white walls, or the tightly paved roof, Huaiyu can't help but feel sad. Shocked.
If this was not a new house built by Wu Yue, she would definitely like it very much.
But now, just thinking about that name feels bad.
Compared to the previous tree house, which was only about ten square meters, the house seemed particularly spacious.
There is a row of metal cabinets placed against the wall, and several storage boxes are neatly stacked on the upper bed.
The lower bunk is covered with a mattress, and there are neatly folded new quilts in a square shape.
Although the color is a uniform dark tone, it is much more pleasing to the eye than her previous fluorescent pink pillow, or the fluorescent purple quilt cover and black and blue floral quilt.
There is even a chimney in the corner connected to the stove!
Probably because it was too hot to cook in summer, there was even a neat double stove placed in the grass shed outside.
Nowadays, stoves, iron pots and stoves are all available, and the wealth can be said to be very rich.
Beside the door are two buckets for daily water use. There is an ancient washbasin stand next to it, with a round mirror on top, an enamel basin stand below, and a towel on top...
All of this is really life-like.
“This is my opinion.”
Zhou Qian asked her with a smile: "These are new, you should be satisfied, right? The washbasin stand was not on the list originally. I bought it from an outside warehouse."
"I heard it is about An antique from 100 years ago, quite appropriate.”
“Do you like it?”
Update 1 is here!
Overhead, overhead!
There are many washbasin racks from the 80s and 90s, those born in the 1990s should still have memories of them, right?
There is a towel on the top and a mirror in the middle. The washbasin is placed on the top, and the footbath is placed diagonally on the bottom.
I will add a picture when I finish writing.
