Chapter 82 (1/2)
Zhang Haolin's mother, who was originally proud of Zhang Haolin, was too happy to find the north when she heard that others praised her son so much. Regardless of his father and son's busy cleaning up the house at home, he moved a small stool and sat in the yard, chatting with the women in full swing.
I heard a group of women sitting in their yard chatting and laughing from time to time. Zhang Haolin's father, who came in and went out, glanced at his wife from time to time. Reluctantly shook his head, turned back, walked into the room, and couldn't help laughing.
I have to admit that Zhang Haolin is really an honest man who will only be bullied by others, unlike their ancestors. Their family has never had such a man who would let the women of the whole village gather together to discuss praise. It seems that this boy really makes them proud.
As soon as those women talked, they lost their sense of time. From sitting in the yard most of the afternoon until sunset, they left slowly one by one.
Because those women boasted about Zhang Haolin this afternoon, Zhang Haolin's mother was happy all the time. Until it was dark, when I went to the kitchen to cook, I hummed a little song for the first time, looking very happy.
But when it was so dark, Zhang Haolin was relieved. I don't worry that the aloe tree in my backyard will be found by anyone.
Even if his parents found him tomorrow, because when he planted the aloes tree today, he first loosened the soil around the tree. He can also say that he bought it and planted it in the backyard.
After a busy afternoon, Zhang Haolin's father was very tired. While Zhang Haolin's mother was cooking, she went back to her room and lay in bed to rest.
Instead, Zhang Haolin, who was excited and worried that Qiqing would not understand, sat alone at the door of his yard, thinking whether he wanted to talk to Qiqing about it.
Just when Zhang Haolin thought so and hesitated. Suddenly one came out in the middle of the night, stood in front of Zhang Haolin and looked at him worried.
”Sister Qiqing, why are you here? Come in! ” Qiqing suddenly appeared in his sight, which surprised Zhang Haolin who was already thinking of her. He hurriedly stood up and wanted to pull her into the house.
Qiqing may be embarrassed because Zhang Haolin touched her at her house today. Her head is buried low. Avoiding Zhang Haolin to pull her hand, he said carefully, ”I'm just a little worried about you, so come and have a look. I won't enter the house. Just say a few words to you and I'll leave. ”
Now it's dark. Qiqing came in the dark alone and didn't take a flashlight. Zhang Haolin knew that she must be afraid that if others saw her coming to her, others would gossip about him. That's why Qiqing did it. Zhang Haolin immediately felt a little distressed.
Looking back at the darkness, there was no one around. Zhang Haolin walked out of the range of light in his yard. As soon as he took Qiqing's hand, he took her outside.
