After kicking out my ex-husband, his brother and I got back together.

Chapter 428
Su Xiaojun and Zheng Yanqing petted the fluffy puppy at Aunt Akuan's house and ate several roasted sweet potatoes before leaving.

Before leaving, Aunt Akuan packed up the remaining ones and stuffed them into Zheng Yanqing's arms.

"This sweet potato was dug last year. It has been stored for more than half a year and has lost a lot of its moisture. I saw little Aqing likes it just now. You can eat the rest."

Zheng Yanqing nodded and quickly thanked the enthusiastic Aunt Akuan, and then left with Su Xiaojun holding the sweet potatoes.

As the two walked on the road, they didn't need street lights at all. They only needed the moon to illuminate the silver-white concrete road to the point of reflection.

The slopes of Haimo Village are covered with pomegranates, but the farmland below the mountains is still full of rice and corn.

In the past, when young people went out, the fertile fields in the village were in panic. Now, when people stay, the fields are full of life.

The cement road is more than two meters wide, and there are large rice fields on both sides of the road.

In early July, the rice fields are all green, and you can hear all kinds of cries in the rice fields while walking along the edges.

Crickets and frogs appear one after another.

"Xiaojun, look, our shadows."

Zheng Yanqing held the sweet potato with one hand and pointed with the other hand at the two black shadows in front of him, one long and one short.

"Yeah, your shadow is getting longer and longer, and it's about to catch up with me."

Su Xiaojun said.

Recalling the first time he saw Zheng Yanqing, Xiaotuanzi hugged his pants and started calling her sister.

These eight years passed so fast and so slowly that she didn't even observe carefully. Zheng Yanqing had already grown so tall, much taller than herself when she was ten years old.

But it also passed slowly, so slowly that during the six years she spent abroad, her longing for home had already filled her heart.

Why did he just graduate from high school when he has obviously been abroad for so long?

She wanted to go back to China to work as soon as possible after graduating from college.

Su Xiaojun was thinking about it, and then he slowly came back to his senses after being pulled by Zheng Yanqing's sleeve.

"Lean a little closer, then a little further back, and then tilt your head."

Zheng Yanqing held up her mobile phone and said to Su Xiaojun.

Although Su Xiaojun didn't know what he meant, she still complied. She took two steps back, and her shadow looked half a head shorter than Zheng Yanqing.

"Tilt your head."

Zheng Yanqing continued.

"why?"

Su Xiaojun asked and followed suit.

She tilted her head and realized that her movement was projected through the shadow, as if she was leaning on Zheng Yanqing's shoulder.

Zheng Yanqing quickly pressed the shutter button with quick eyesight, and only the upper bodies of himself and Su Xiaojun were illuminated. Under the moonlight, in the soft light, there were two light gray shadows.

They were close together, and there was no disagreement between them.

Su Xiaojun stepped forward, pointed at Zheng Yanqing's mobile phone and asked.

"Kid, what did you take a picture of?"

Zheng Yanqing shook his head.

"I won't tell you. Also, I'm not a child."

When the two returned to the village chief's B&B, they saw that the lights were still on. They thought about it and decided to take the delicious roasted sweet potatoes to the village chief's house to share.

The two knocked on the door of the village chief's house, and the village chief came out and welcomed them in with a smile.

Several people were sitting in the living room of the village chief's house. Roasted sweet potatoes were placed on the coffee table. The village chief and his wife each held a roasted sweet potato and gnawed it with relish.

"Let me tell you, Aunt Akuan's sweet potatoes are the best grown in our village. They are big, sweet, oily, and golden."

It's summer now, and they can enjoy eating like this. It's so satisfying to hold a warm sweet potato like this in winter. I must do it again in winter.

Zheng Yanqing thought to himself.

Su Xiaojun discussed the plan to adopt a pomegranate tree with the village chief again. As the two chatted, they forgot about time.

The village chief's wife had gone back to her room to sleep long ago, and Zheng Yanqing had been waiting here. However, when Su Xiaojun finished talking to the village chief and looked back at him, the child had already fallen asleep hugging the armrest of the sofa.

"Ouch, it's quite late now. I lost track of time while I was talking to you. Look." The village chief felt a little guilty, but Su Xiaojun waved his hand and said it was okay.

She turned to look at Zheng Yanqing.

"I'll carry him back to the room."

The village chief stood up quickly.

"Can you carry it? How about I do it?"

Su Xiaojun smiled.

"Uncle, I am already an adult, how can I not even be able to carry a child?"

With that said, she stood up, walked to Zheng Yanqing, and carried the child on her back.

Zheng Yanqing was sleeping deeply, and the village chief helped him lie on Su Xiaojun's back with such big movements that he didn't wake up.

"Okay, then you guys go to bed early and your aunt will steam shaomai for you tomorrow morning."

Su Xiaojun nodded.

"Okay, thank you uncle."

The two left the village chief's house and returned to the nearby B&B. Su Xiaojun stood at the door of Zheng Yanqing's room for a while, then turned and went to his room.

I forgot to ask the village chief for the spare key when I left, and now I don't know where the kid put the key to the room.

The boy was already asleep, and it was not good to wake him up. She opened the door to her room, put him on the bed, and took off his sneakers.

But she didn't notice the person lying on the bed, her eyelashes flickering, and then she closed her eyes tightly.

When Su Xiaojun wanted to take off Zheng Yanqing's thin shirt and jacket, the child turned over and hugged the quilt beside him.

This is Xiaojun's scent. It smells so good. It's not the strong perfume scent, but the scent of Xiaojun's usual shower gel...it smells really good.

Zheng Yanqing buried her nose in the quilt, and her consciousness gradually became blurry again.

Su Xiaojun found the key in Zheng Yanqing's pocket when he turned over.

She stepped forward and took out the key, looked at Zheng Yanqing, and tightened the quilt for him.

"You can sleep here tonight, and we'll change rooms."

After saying that, she picked up her toiletries, walked out of the room and walked to Zheng Yanqing's room.

Hearing the door to the room being closed, Zheng Yanqing suddenly opened his eyes.

"why did you leave……"

He groaned and hugged the quilt tightly in his arms.

It had been a long, long time since he had slept on the same bed with Xiaojun.

Xiaojun's body is warm, but her hands and feet tend to get cold easily. Can she keep warm while sleeping by herself?
……

Su Xiaojun and Zheng Yanqing stayed in Haimo Village for two weeks. Su Xiaojun collected some data and took a lot of videos. When they returned to T City, it was already late July.

As soon as the car drove into the Feng family's old house, Zheng Yanqing got out of the car first. Xia Yizhen and Feng Yian were both stunned.

The child's entire head looked as if it had been smoked, and it was three degrees black from the neck up.

"Quanquan, are you following your sister to dig coal?"

Feng Yian couldn't help but ask.

Zheng Yanqing has always been a good boy with few words at home. Now after a trip to Haimo Village, he came back smelling like soy sauce, which made him very distressed.

Su Xiaojun parked the car and got out. She hugged her parents first and then started to laugh at Zheng Yanqing.

"During this period of time, the sun is poisonous, and he also said that men will never wear sun hats. Isn't this what it is like?"

Zheng Yanqing didn't want to look in the mirror. He always felt that his current appearance made him very dissatisfied. He wished that when he looked in the mirror, he had become an adult, but the fact was that he was still a child.

There was never a mirror in his room. He covered the mirror in the B&B room on the first day he arrived.

Children always have a goal in mind. When they wait for their own time, they will open the mirror and take a serious look at their appearance. They must have become a mature adult.
