There is Room For Abandoned Women In the 1980s

Chapter 72 She seems to be seriously ill?

“My sister’s stewed roe deer meat is delicious.”

Zheng Chengbao is a sister-in-law. He beamed when he heard his sister's voice. He proudly boasted to Gu Changfeng, as if his sister was the only one in the world who cooked delicious food and could not eat what others cooked.

　　"Really? Then wouldn't I be blessed?"

Gu Changfeng Bingshan had a faint smile on his face and wanted to know how delicious the food made by Zheng Xinyue was?

Zheng Xinyue had already opened the door of the warehouse and walked in with a basin. The cellar was more than one meter deep. There was a ladder inside. If she wanted to get the potatoes, she had to go down the ladder. She was actually afraid of the dark but she didn't worry about the children going down, so she had to go down alone. Holding on to the scalp.

 Most of the potatoes are harvested after the autumn harvest. After the potatoes are harvested, the team members do not want to go to the fields to walk the potatoes themselves, so don't expect to get big ones. The ones as big as small ping-pong **** are still taken back as treasures.

Zheng Xinyue picked up half a pot of potatoes in the dark, and when she saw a radish, she put it into the pot. It was a bit difficult to hold the pot and climb the ladder. Someone had to catch it when she went up.

“Changfeng, come and sit in the room, I’ll pick some cucumbers for you to eat.” Zheng Xinyue heard the bold voice of the third brother outside under the cellar, and hurriedly raised her head and shouted upwards. "Third brother, third brother, pick me up."

 “Little sister, where are you?”

Zheng Chengbao followed Zheng Xinyue's voice to find the warehouse, and his expression changed a little. Xinyue was most afraid of the dark. Did she go down to the cellar?

"I'm in the cellar, third brother, help me pick it up."

"Aren't you most afraid of the dark? Have you forgotten your illness?"

Zheng Chengbao was so anxious that he forgot about Gu Changfeng and blurted out words of concern.

Gu Changfeng's thick eyebrows were slightly frowned. She didn't look sick, but from Zheng Chengbao's nervous tone, she seemed to be seriously ill?

Zheng Xinyue crawled out of the cellar with the help of her third brother. She has claustrophobia, and being alone in the dark is really tortured.

 “How are you, little sister? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?”

Zheng Chengbao ignored the half-pot of potatoes and looked nervously at the pale little girl and asked.

“It’s good, but it’s a bit dark down there. I’ll bring a kerosene lamp down next time.”

Zheng Xinyue rubbed the goosebumps on her arms and joked to her third brother with a smile that she was not afraid of the light.

 “No next time, you are not allowed to enter the cellar again.”

Zheng Chengbao ordered his younger sister with his eyes wide open, using a commanding tone for the first time.

"knew."

Zheng Xinyue was very moved when she saw the nervous look of her third brother, and agreed to him with a smile.

As the brother and sister walked out of the warehouse, Zheng Xinyue felt the gaze from Gu Changfeng and smiled awkwardly at him. Did he see her embarrassment just now?

“Third brother, you accompany Director Gu into the house to drink water, and I’ll go cook.”

In order to avoid his probing eyes, Zheng Xinyue simply gave the third brother a task.

 “I’ll light the stove pit for you.”

Zheng Chengbao couldn't bear to let his sister do such backbreaking work, so he turned around and walked out the door, forgetting about Gu Changfeng and his two comrades.

"Please come in." Zheng Xinyue had no choice but to assume the responsibility of being the host and let Gu Changfeng and the two accompanying comrades into the house.

“I don’t have any tea at home. Why don’t you wait for some comrades? Can you drink some cold water to quench your thirst first?”

Zheng Xinyue asked people to go to the east room and explained to Gu Changfeng with some embarrassment.

 It’s good to have enough to eat in rural areas. Who has spare money to buy tea? Even the worst broken tea costs money. With that money, you might as well buy some necessities like salt and soy sauce.

 Gu Changfeng looked at Zheng Xinyue's house. Hearing Zheng Xinyue's kind words, he looked at her with his deep eyes. He slightly raised the corners of his mouth and spat out a rich voice from his thin lips: "It doesn't matter, as long as you have water to drink."
