Chapter 111 thought she was great and decided she was the one.
After replying to a few messages, she drove home.
After a morning of running around, I was feeling a bit sleepy, so I parked the car, set an alarm, and went back to my room for a half-hour nap.
After waking up from my afternoon nap, I went to the yard to drive my car while replying to messages on my phone. The first place I went was the greenhouse.
After finishing his inspection, he ran into He Gui, who was carrying rotten fruit with his wife.
When the two saw He Qiaoyun, they instinctively tried to hide the basket full of rotten fruit. He Gui scolded them angrily, "What are you looking at?"
He Qiaoyun glanced at the rotten fruit in the basket, hesitated, and finally said nothing, but she still felt sorry for the rotten fruit.
He Gui seemed to see through her thoughts, and calmed down a bit, saying, "We are all farmers in the same cooperative. You can't bear to watch our fruit rot in the ground, can you?"
He Qiaoyun raised an eyebrow. Since he was speaking to her so politely, she couldn't help but offer a suggestion: "It's a bit hard to bear, so you shouldn't always think about making big money. The important thing is to sell the fruit honestly. Contacting the wholesale market and fruit vendors can still salvage the situation."
He Gui didn't get a satisfactory response, but he was too embarrassed to ask her to help him sell again. Firstly, the previous argument had been quite unpleasant, and secondly, it was the same old problem: he didn't want her to take a cut.
He was too embarrassed to say it, but his wife, Huang Juanjuan, was. Huang Juanjuan said, though she didn't feel justified, "Come to the village committee at 7:30 tonight and help us sell some goods. We're from the same village, we should help each other out. Talking about money hurts feelings, right?"
He Qiaoyun chuckled speechlessly, "I don't have time tonight, you guys can broadcast it yourselves."
Huang Juanjuan frowned. "What are you busy with so late at night? Are you going to be hoeing the fields in the dark?"
He Qiaoyun said, "I'm busy... having long phone conversations with men, talking about love."
Seeing that the couple had paused for a moment, she said, "I'll go back first."
After saying that, she drove to the orchard.
I sat in the small house for a while, doing the accounting and counting the quantities. It was getting late.
In the evening, she paid each of her helpers their wages in advance, and then drove home.
I cooked porridge and stir-fried two side dishes for dinner. After eating, I cleaned up the dishes, took a shower, and that's how my busy day came to an end.
As she lay down in bed, she received a call from Feng Jiashu.
Looking at the names flashing on the screen, I felt inexplicably nervous.
The prophecy came true.
I told He Gui this afternoon that I was going to call a man tonight to talk about love, and I actually received a call tonight.
He pressed the answer button, and a gentle, mellow male voice came through the receiver, "Good evening, are you busy today?"
Hearing his voice, He Qiaoyun couldn't help but smile. "I'm fine. How about you?"
On the other end of the phone, Feng Jiashu took off his glasses, put down the documents in his hand, and gently pinched the bridge of his nose with his fingertips. He looked quite tired, but his tone was still relaxed as he spoke to her, "I'm a bit busy."
He thought his tone was relaxed, but He Qiaoyun could still detect a hint of fatigue in it. "Are you very tired right now?"
Feng Jiashu was surprised that she could hear the fatigue in his voice. "Yes, a little, but I'm used to it."
He Qiaoyun comforted her, "Perhaps you can ask your boss to reduce your workload. Money can never be earned enough, but health is the foundation of everything. It's not good to ruin your health."
A gentle laugh came from the phone receiver. "Yes, I will. Actually, just talking to you on the phone makes me feel much more relaxed."
He said it so naturally, yet it made He Qiaoyun's face flush, as if they were truly talking about love.
"Hmm? What's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?" Feng Jiashu asked.
He Qiaoyun immediately came to her senses and blurted out, "I, I was thirsty just now, so I drank some water."
As she spoke, she leaned to the side, picked up the water glass from the bedside table, and gulped down a mouthful.
Feng Jiashu smiled and said, "Yes, I heard you."
Even though they weren't face-to-face, just looking into each other's eyes while speaking was enough to make her flustered; if they were face-to-face, she would be even more at a loss...
"Oh, by the way, I have some business to attend to at the herbal medicine research base tomorrow," he said.
He Qiaoyun responded with an "Oh".
Seeing that she didn't quite get it, Feng Jiashu sighed and said, "I want to see you at noon."
He Qiaoyun seemed to be struck by those words, and was speechless for a moment. It was really a bit ambiguous and exceeded her expectations.
Seeing that she didn't respond for a while, Feng Jiashu said indirectly, "If you're busy, then never mind. I'll go straight back to the city after I finish my business..."
He Qiaoyun quickly agreed, "No, I'm not busy. What would you like to eat for lunch? I'll make it for you."
Feng Jiashu then smiled and said, "Either way is fine, the guest can do as the host says."
He Qiaoyun: "Okay..."
Feng Jiashu: "Good night."
"Good night."
After hanging up the phone, she put down her phone and, like a young girl in her first love, flopped onto the bed, burying her face in the pillow in embarrassment.
All night long, his gentle voice filled my mind.
crazy.
Insomnia.
Perhaps it's time to start a relationship.
My daughter is right. It's just dating, for emotional value, not for marriage. There's no need to put so much pressure on yourself. Just follow your heart.
She suffered from insomnia until the early hours of the morning, when she finally fell into a deep sleep.
I woke up the next day to the sound of roosters crowing.
After breakfast, she tidied up the house briefly before going to the orchard.
After working in the orchard for a while, I delivered two baskets of fruit to the town, asked the fruit shop owner for a mask, put it on, and went to the market to buy some fruits, vegetables, and meat for lunch.
Wearing a mask in the sweltering summer heat is incredibly uncomfortable, but I'm also afraid of being recognized and getting into trouble.
Once back in the car, she took off her mask.
When she returned to the village around noon, she went to the orchard first. Before she even got there, she saw a black car parked in front of the orchard.
It should be Feng Jiashu's car.
But it wasn't the familiar Audi Q8; it was a car with a string of letters on the front, not a common logo, and she didn't recognize it.
After parking her car, she got out and, before even entering the orchard, overheard the workers gossiping with Feng Jiashu as they were leaving get off work. Instead of going in directly, she stopped.
"Are you here to see Qiaoyun?"
Feng Jiashu: "Hmm, I was just passing by on business. Isn't she here?"
"He went to town to deliver fruit, he should be back soon. Is that car outside yours? Don't you drive that Audi anymore?"
Feng Jiashu smiled faintly: "Yes, the Audi will not be driven for the time being."
"You're quite a catch, with two cars and you're from the city, so why did you fall for Qiaoyun?"
Feng Jiashu said with a smile, "There aren't that many reasons to like someone. I just like her, I think she's great, and I've made up my mind about her."
He Qiaoyun wanted to interrupt, but she was too slow. Hearing this, she blushed and didn't know whether she should go in or not.
Hearing Feng Jiashu's words, the other workers clicked their tongues in envy, some even envious of Qiaoyun's good fortune—divorced at her age, she could still meet such an outstanding man...
"Well, it's getting late, we should go home and make lunch."
