There is a glimmer of light in the world

Chapter 38 Fateful Miss
Li Jing ate a lot of local specialties at the market. She was not very hungry at first, but Aunt Qiao was a good cook. She made six dishes, one soup and one sweet porridge, including meat and vegetables. She not only took into account the color and taste, but also picked Several rose flowers were placed in a vase in the middle of the dining table. The overflowing fragrance added a bit of romance. Li Jing's taste buds were instantly opened. She picked up her chopsticks, picked up a piece of garlic pig's trotters and put it into her mouth. She was pleasantly surprised. Climbing up to his eyes, "It's delicious!"

Aunt Qiao breathed a sigh of relief visibly, "If it's delicious, eat more. Don't hold back! The pigs raised by our village are not given hormones or feed. They only eat whole grains. They are killed and cooked right now." , green and healthy, the more you eat, the more delicious it becomes!”

Meeting by chance, but being treated with such courtesy and attention, Li Jing truly felt the warmth of going home in this unfamiliar village.

She couldn't help but turn her eyes red. To avoid spoiling the atmosphere, she blinked hard again, forced back the moisture in her eyes, and said in a relaxed and joking tone: "Aunt Qiao is not only a good cook, but also a great eloquent person!"

"That's right, my name, Li Qiaohua, is not in vain. I am famous for my dexterity and tongue from all over the country!" Aunt Qiao is a straightforward woman with a true temperament, and her laughter and curses are all written on her face.

Liang Maoming looked helpless, "Dr. Li, I am a aunt who knows everything from beginning to end. I never know how to write the word modesty!"

"No, I think Aunt Qiao is very cute. I like Aunt Qiao's character of not beating around the bush." ​​Li Jing said with a smile.

Aunt Qiao pretended to be angry and gave Liang Maoming an elbow, "That's right, Secretary Xiao also praised me for my good character, but you are the only one who dislikes me all the time because I can't speak."

Hearing the words "Secretary Xiao", Li Jing paused with the chopsticks in her hand, feeling suddenly extremely complicated.

But Liang Maoming didn't stop Aunt Qiao's quick talk. He sighed helplessly, and then tried to change the subject, "Well, um... let's eat. The food won't taste good when it's cold."

"Secretary Xiao..." Li Jing asked hesitantly, "Isn't he in the village?"

Liang Maoming did not expect that Li Jing would take the initiative to question Xiao Yu. He was stunned and replied truthfully: "Secretary Xiao went to a neighboring county to inspect a project and left early this morning."

Li Jing said "Oh" and stopped asking. Her tone became more relaxed again, "I want to try every dish of Aunt Qiao's." After that, she acted like a happy foodie without any ceremony.

Liang Maoming always felt that something was wrong, but since Li Jing didn't say anything, he couldn't ask more questions.

After the meal, Li Jing helped clear away the dishes. Liang Maoming made a pot of tea and told Li Jing the story of the Liang family's ancestors. The two drank and chatted. Unconsciously, it was late at night. Li Jing said good night and got up to go. Rest in the North Room.

The night in Liangwan Village is quiet and peaceful.

Li Jing was lying on the kang, tossing and turning with her numerous thoughts, making it difficult to fall asleep.

After eight years of separation, it was the first time we were so close to Xiao Yu.

However, due to a fateful miss, she still couldn't reach him.

……

early morning.

The alarm clock at 07:30 woke Li Jing up on time.It was an extremely uncomfortable sleep. The kang in the countryside was too hard and the pillow was too high. Not only did she have back pain, but she also had a stiff neck. Her neck hurt for a long time and she couldn't turn back. She gritted her teeth and massaged it for a long time. , and then slowly recovered.

Li Jing folded the quilt and got off the kang.

There was no bathroom in the house, and there was no running water or hot water. Bathing was even more luxurious. She was too tired last night and lay down without washing. Now she suddenly felt that such living conditions were not practical for her who grew up in the city. So inconvenient.
