Chapter 95 Selling Pearls
The door of the room was suddenly knocked, and Mother Zhou's voice sounded: "Lei, aren't you going to the city? It's six o'clock, get up!"
Also Before even kissing her, Jiang Xia was startled by Zhou's mother's voice and hurriedly lay down.
Zhou Chenglei opened his eyes, put his arm on his forehead, and said to Zhou's mother: "Okay."
He turned sideways and touched Jiang Xia's forehead.
Jiang Xia held his hand: "It's okay, get up! We have to go to the shipyard."
"Yes." Zhou Chenglei responded, but put her in his arms and held her Don't want to move.
The corners of Jiang Xia's mouth raised slightly and she was hugged by him.
In the summer morning, there are cicadas chirping, birds singing, and his strong heartbeat.
Both are on the same frequency, harmonious and beautiful.
Zhou Chenglei kissed her forehead for a long time before letting her go: "Get up!"
He also wanted to go to the production team to borrow a tractor.
Both husband and wife got up, and Zhou Chenglei folded the quilt.
After that day, he slept almost naked, wearing only a pair of shorts.
He bent over slightly and folded the quilt. His six-pack abs were clearly visible due to his movements. His long, straight legs had graceful and smooth lines. Their muscles were tight and full of power.
Sexy as hell!
This was the first time Jiang Xia saw it so clearly. She couldn't help but blush. She quickly took a shirt and a pair of trousers from the closet and handed them to him: "Your clothes."
< br>Zhou Chenglei folded the quilt and saw that she had prepared clothes for him. A smile appeared on his eyebrows. He took the clothes Jiang Xia handed over and looked at her, but found that her face was as red as an apple. He was shocked and threw the clothes on the bed. , with a long arm, he took her into his arms and reached out to touch her forehead: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Jiang Xia's face was forced to press against his chest, which made it even hotter. She pushed him: "No. "Hurry up and get dressed."
Zhou Chenglei saw her increasingly red face, as pretty as a peach, and there was something else he didn't understand. There was a smile on his face, and he lowered his head and pecked: "There's not enough time. , go to bed early tonight.”
Jiang Xia glared at him, how could she mean that!
Live! Zhou Chenglei grabbed her waist, lifted her up, and pressed her against the wall...
After Jiang Xia felt like her breath was being taken away, Zhou Chenglei let her go, put on her clothes and went out first, otherwise he Mom urged again.
I don’t have enough time. I have to go to the city today and I’m a bit busy!
Whenever Zhou Chenglei leaves the room, he is always neatly dressed, with his shirt buttoned to the top button.
Jiang Xia waited for him to go out before changing her clothes and combing her hair. She looked at the mirror and saw that her lips were extremely red. The old marks on her neck faded away, and new marks appeared. She knew it at a glance. What's going on!
I had no choice but to change into a collared shirt, then took out the cosmetics prepared by Zhou’s mother, put on light makeup, and applied some lipstick to cover it up. Only then did she remember that she hadn’t brushed her teeth and washed her face yet!
When Zhou Chenglei came in, Jiang Xia glared at him and asked him to bring a basin of water in while she wiped off her lipstick.
Zhou Chenglei looked at her brighter face after putting on makeup, "Don't bother."
He stepped forward to hold her face, lowered his head and kissed her lips.

I went to the city today, also by bicycle, and the tractor of the production team was not available today.
Cars do not pass by the shipyard, which is inconvenient.
Zhou's father rode one by himself, and Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei rode one together to the city.
Meeting villagers on the road, everyone asked them where they were going. Father Zhou smiled and replied that they were selling dried fish in the market. Everyone didn't care. They all knew that they dried a lot of dried shrimps and dried fish.
This time they brought 20 kilograms of dried shrimps, 80 kilograms of dried golden pomfret, and 20 kilograms of dried fish to the city to give to the last bad guy, the Marquis.
I gave away some of the dried shrimps I dried last time, but only twenty kilograms were left. I still have dozens of kilograms of dried golden pomfret at home.
Before departure, when Zhou Chenglei went to the production team to borrow a tractor, he called Mr. Hou and made an appointment to meet at the dock around eleven o'clock.
Twenty kilograms of dried shrimps were placed in the basket on the front of Zhou Chenglei's car, and fifteen kilograms of dried fish were hung on both sides of the handle.
Fifty pounds of dried fish are tied to the tail of Zhou’s father’s bicycle.
Jiang Xia found that it was not very strenuous for Zhou's father, who was over sixty years old, to ride a bicycle to the city carrying fifty kilograms of stuff. He was really impressed.
"Dad, you are so awesome! Carrying such a heavy thing, riding a bicycle for such a distance, you are not out of breath. Are you tired?" The daughter-in-law was concerned about herself, and Father Zhou said with a smile: " I’m used to it, and the bicycle does most of the work, so I’m not tired.”
When Father Zhou was in the production team, he used a cart to pull hundreds of kilograms of fish. , after getting off the boat, I started taking them to the market to sell at five or six in the evening. It was not even dawn until dawn. That was when I was really tired.
Using a bicycle to pull dozens of kilograms of things is not too hard for him.
People of their generation are used to hardship and are not afraid of it.
Zhou Chenglei couldn't help but reach out and squeeze her hand around his waist: Doesn't she know how to care about him?
He carried fifty kilograms in the front of the car, and she carried ninety kilograms in the back of the car! It adds up to more than a hundred kilograms!
Jiang Xia didn't understand what he meant, but subconsciously locked her fingers with his backhand. Zhou Chenglei was satisfied and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Father Zhou turned his head and glanced at them. The two of them clasped their hands and said, "How about I put the fifty kilograms of dried fish in the front of your car?"
This will probably make it more expensive!
Zhou Chenglei:? ? ?

When they arrived in the city, Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia went to the city to sell pearls. They put all the dried fish on Zhou’s father’s bicycle, and Zhou’s father went directly to the dock to sell dried fish.
Zhou Chenglei took Jiang Xia to the department store, parked the car outside the door, locked it, and walked in.
Zhou Chenglei took her directly to the gold shop in the mall.
Wearing a white shirt and green military trousers, Zhou Chenglei looked majestic.
Jiang Xia is wearing a Lianghua shirt and green military trousers. She has fair skin and beautiful appearance. She is carrying a military green cross-body bag and has an extraordinary temperament.
As soon as the two of them entered the gold shop, the salesperson came up to greet them enthusiastically: "Welcome, what do you two want to buy?"
The salesperson was a middle-aged woman, and she looked at the two of them. One glance, and finally his eyes fell on Zhou Chenglei's face and couldn't be moved away.
Jiang Xia: "We are not here to buy anything."
Salesperson:? ? ?
The salesperson's tone immediately became less enthusiastic than before: "If you're not here to buy something, why are you here? Looking for a toilet? After exiting the mall, turn left and walk about 500 meters, then turn into a small alley. I saw the public toilet."
Zhou Chenglei: "We are here to sell pearls."
The salesperson looked at Zhou Chenglei, his face looked better, and his tone became more curious: "Selling pearls. Where did the pearls come from? "
Jiang Xia: "We are fishermen, we caught the pearls from the sea ourselves."
Fishermen?
I really can’t tell! Dressed up like a ghost, what kind of nonsense are you trying to show off?
The salesperson's tone unconsciously added a hint of disdain: "How many are there? Is it beautiful? Let me see."
Jiang Xia took out a better pearl from his backpack. , "How much does it cost for one of this size and quality?"
The pearl Jiang Xia took was about 10mm in size. It was golden and had a very good luster. It had only a few flaws that could be covered up.
The salesperson glanced at it, her eyes lit up, and she said nonchalantly: "Let me take a look."
Jiang Xia gave her the pearl.
She held the pearl and looked around it, then put it in her palm and looked at it carefully several times.
This pearl has soft pearlescent light, full color, perfect shape, radiant color, and few flaws that can be completely covered. It can be said to be extremely rare and the best.
She held back the surprise in her heart and said calmly: "Your pearl is not bad, but it has flaws. Normally, pearls of this size that we receive usually cost three to five yuan a piece. Your flaw is not a problem. "Sir, I'll give you six yuan!"
Jiang Xia: "Six yuan?"
The salesperson glanced at her and said in a rude tone: "Yes, six yuan is expensive. Not selling? ”
