Chapter 28 The Wife

======================

Not knowing what was going on in his mind, Cheng Liao pushed the wheelchair and walked out.There was a rain in the early morning, and now it has stopped, the air is filled with the clean smell of dust being washed, the wheels of the wheelchair creaked and rolled over the wet road, Lin Yuanye sat in the wheelchair and pointed out to the man road.

The vegetable market is exactly the opposite of the road to the construction site. Lin Yuanye has never been there, but only heard it from the uncle next door when he was inquiring about the surrounding situation.Most of the vegetable markets are farmers who come to sell vegetables on tricycles in the early morning, and there are also local residents who catch and sell domestic poultry.

Walk about a few hundred meters along the side of the road, and soon you will see the entrance of the vegetable market.Cheng Liao pushed him to enter through the door, glanced at the stalls of those vegetable vendors in turn, and then asked him slightly with his eyes down, "What do you want to eat at noon?"

"It's all right, I'm not picky about food." Lin Yuanye answered with his hands raised against his chin, his ears filled with yelling from the vendors.

Cheng Liao pushed him to the side of the stall to have a look. When the other party squatted down from the front of the stall to pick fresh vegetables, he consciously raised his mobile phone to scan the payment code at the side of the stall.When Cheng Liao and the boss confirmed the price and got up, Lin Yuanye had already paid the bill first, and then took the bag of vegetables from the other party's hand thoughtfully, and placed it neatly on his lap.

His hand suddenly became empty, and the man looked down at him, but didn't say anything else, and just let him sit in the wheelchair and play the role of helping to get the dishes.

The two walked towards the vegetable market all the way, and Cheng Liao kept stuffing vegetables into his arms.Even in the end, the other party stopped directly in front of the grocery stall and stuffed a newly bought straw fan into his hand.

Lin Yuanye hugged the cattail fan in a daze, until after Cheng Liao paid the money, he suddenly came back to his senses, raised his hand and lightly touched the man's arm.

The latter lowered his head as if aware of it, and glanced at him with some faint doubts in his eyes.

Lin Yuanye raised the cattail fan in his arms in a little surprise and asked, "What are you buying this for?"

The other party seemed to be more surprised than him, and after staring at him in silence for two seconds, he calmly reminded: "Didn't you want it?"

The wonder in Lin Yuanye's eyes increased instead of diminishing, "When did I want it?"

"Don't remember?" The man raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes fell on his face thoughtfully.

"I don't remember." Lin Yuanye answered honestly, holding the cattail fan.

"Do you need me to help you remember?" Cheng Liao reminded concisely, "The day you came to my house."

"Which day?" In fact, he had already vaguely recalled it, but he still tilted his head pretending not to know, deliberately prolonging the slightly rising tone, "Is it the day when you took a bath at your house? Or the day when you slept at your house?"

After he finished speaking, he raised his lips and looked at Cheng Liao's indifferent face, wanting to see how the man would deal with his words.

However, half of Cheng Liao's expression remained unchanged, and when he met his pupils who were hiding a narrow smile, he answered the words in a slightly understated tone: "It's not right."

Lin Yuanye was startled unprepared, secretly muttering in his heart that the other party didn't play cards according to common sense, but couldn't help subconsciously asking: "What day was that?"

Hearing this, Cheng Liao pondered for a moment in his voice, and slightly narrowed his black eyes, "I don't remember clearly either."

Unable to figure out what the other person was saying, Lin Yuanye raised his eyebrows slightly, and when he was about to say something, he was interrupted by the man's voice again.

"It may be the day you hugged me outside the courtyard gate, or it may be the day you fell into my arms in the middle of the night." Under Lin Yuanye's surprised and astonished gaze, he uttered these words in a low and slow voice, and then his eyebrows and eyes remained unchanged. Concisely concluded, "As for the specific date, I can't remember."

Before the surprise and astonishment in his eyes subsided, Lin Yuanye realized belatedly that the two events mentioned in the other party's words clearly happened on the same day.

Lin Yuanye immediately looked at him speechless.

This probably wasn't the thing that made his face the hottest. The boss squatting behind the grocery stand could hear their conversation clearly. Seeing that Lin Yuanye didn't talk anymore, it seemed like he couldn't help it, fuck Speaking mandarin with a strong dialect flavor, he asked enthusiastically, "Young man, are you a couple?"

The two people in front of the grocery stand all turned their heads to look at him, and neither of them spoke first.The boss seems to be getting old, his eyes are not very good, and he is quite receptive to the new policy in the Marriage Law. Seeing the two of them staring at him and not answering, he can assume that they have both acquiesced, and gossiped with a smile on his face: "Marry Are you done?"

Lin Yuanye and Cheng Liao answered at the same time.

"It's not over," Lin Yuanye said.

"It's over." Cheng Liao said.

The moment the other party's voice fell into his ears, Lin Yuanye's heart skipped a beat.He raised his eyes to look at the side of the man with unpredictable emotions, but he still couldn't see what he was thinking from Cheng Liao's face.

Mistakenly thinking that the confession was inconsistent due to the quarrel between the two, the boss cheerfully acted as a peacemaker, "It's okay, it's okay, the young couple quarreled at the head of the bed and made peace at the end of the bed."

After the other party finished speaking, he enthusiastically picked two red lover's knot bracelets from the stall, and stuffed them into their hands without saying a word, "These two lover's knots were made by my wife, so treat them as if you were buying a fan." gift for you."

He happily gave away the lover's knot, and rarely met young couples of the same gender. The boss pointed to Lin Yuanye who was sitting in a wheelchair, looked at Cheng Liao curiously, and asked, "This is you—"

Ignoring the questioning look in the eyes of the person in front of him, the latter didn't even look at Lin Yuanye, and simply answered, "My wife."

Lin Yuanye's eyes staring at the man suddenly widened, and once again lost his language function very briefly.

The boss sighed angrily, and asked in a concerned tone: "What's wrong with your wife? Good young man, why are you still in a wheelchair?"

"I hurt my foot." Cheng Liao said.

"I got someone to come out to buy vegetables with you when my foot was injured." The boss's words suddenly changed sharply, and turned into a slightly accusing tone of education, "Don't let him come out tomorrow, let him rest at home."

"He didn't let him out, he thought of it himself." After a slight pause, Cheng Liao added indifferently, "He's too clingy."

Although the other party's words were only four words, they hit Lin Yuanye's chest like a thousand catties. He was slightly choked for breathing, and then coughed loudly with enthusiasm.

"Do you want some water?" Noticing the sudden situation on his body, the boss immediately turned his gaze, "I'll go to the butcher shop next door to get some for you?"

The coughing stopped quickly, and Lin Yuanye waved his hand silently, signaling to the other party not to trouble.

As if suddenly noticing the pork shop mentioned in the boss's words, Cheng Liao turned his head and looked down at him and asked, "Do you want to buy some pork rib stew?"

As if he didn't realize how amazing what he said, the man's face was still as calm and calm as a mountain.

Before Lin Yuanye had settled down and opened his mouth, the owner of the grocery stall took the lead and said, "Pork rib stew is good for your health. The owner of the shop next door is my brother. Go and buy some."

Cheng Liao nodded, and asked in a normal tone, "Can it be cheaper?"

"No problem." The boss agreed quickly, turned his head and walked towards the next shop.

Cheng Liao stopped at the same spot and watched the boss leave, then bent down and stopped next to Lin Yuanye's ear, slowly opened his lips and said in a low voice, "They have very similar facial features."

The man talked nonsense, but Lin Yuanye seemed to have realized it suddenly, and raised his chin in a daze and asked, "You lied to the owner of the grocery stall to make it cheaper for the owner of the butcher shop next door?"

Cheng Liao straightened up without comment, but he did not deny his words.

Lin Yuanye acquiesced in his guess as a matter of course, and his emotions were mixed like overturning a seasoning jar.

After the two bought the ribs, they continued to walk forward.When passing by a fish shop, Cheng Liao stopped in his wheelchair, and amidst the hospitable greetings from the fish shop owner, he looked down at Lin Yuanye's profile and asked, "Do you eat boiled fish?"

Lin Yuanye was still immersed in his own thoughts, and did not hear the questioning voice of the man behind him.Until a shadow suddenly fell over his head, Cheng Liao gently supported the armrest of the wheelchair beside him with his palm, and slowly bent down from behind him.

Sensing the sudden approach of the other party's breath, Lin Yuanye blinked his eyes lightly and came back to his senses, turned his head to the side reflexively and asked, "What's the matter—"

"It's nothing. I'm just asking you," Cheng Liao interrupted his questioning, "Do you eat boiled fish?" The corners of his lips curved slightly, and the man leaned on the armrest of his wheelchair and whispered carelessly, "wife."

When the other party spoke, the warm breath exhaled by opening his lips, wrapped in a seemingly non-existent itchiness and an inescapable temperature, all sprayed on Lin Yuanye's ears and cheeks.

I don't know if it was because the other party was too close, or because he was caught off guard by such a name, Lin Yuanye's ear that was close to Cheng Liao immediately burned like a prairie fire.

After a few seconds, he recovered from his rapid heartbeat, and a bit of suspicion gradually appeared on his pretendingly calm face, "Is this also a relative of the grocery stall owner?"

Cheng Liao was still the default attitude of silent veto.

It was the middle-aged woman who was eagerly looking forward to their fish sale. Hearing Lin Yuanye's question, she couldn't help but asked in surprise, "What is the relative of the grocery stall owner?"

Lin Yuanye pointed to the direction they came from, and asked straight to the point: "Is the owner of the grocery stand in front of you a relative of your family?"

The middle-aged woman shook her head inexplicably, "There are no relatives of my family in the vegetable market."

Lin Yuanye's expression paused slightly, his beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes fell back to Cheng Liao's handsome and deep-featured face inquiringly.

But the latter lowered his eyes, met the eyes he was looking straight at, and raised his eyebrows with a slightly surprised look, "Really?"

"It seems that I guessed wrong." Cheng Liaofeng said calmly.
