"Shi Nan, if you give me some time, I will definitely make you and auntie happy. I will wait for you guys to accept me." Huang Meding spoke softly in his arms, her tone filled with determination!
Shi Nan shook his head and patted her back, "You don't need to change anything. You're already very well." She's really fine. He had done enough for him. What else was he not satisfied with?
"I know I'm not good enough, or you wouldn't have refused to accept me." Huang Meting said in exasperation, "You obviously love me, yet you refuse to be with me. It must be because I didn't do enough!"
"You're a stubborn girl." Shi Nan sighed helplessly, tightened his arms and whispered into her ear: "Alright, stop saying these things, go to sleep early." "Rest assured, I will endure and not touch you!"
"You better hold it back! "Humph!" Huang Meding pouted and spat at him before burying her face in the blanket, ignoring him.
Seeing her angry appearance, Shi Nan felt that it was a little funny and didn't say anything after lightly hugging her.
Hugging her and smelling her unique scent, falling asleep in this kind of situation was truly too difficult. It was definitely the biggest challenge of their lives!
Huang Meuting was the same, unable to calm down. After all, this was the first time she was lying in the same bed with a man she loved. It seemed like Shi Cheng was the one who tortured them the most. He clearly didn't want them to sleep well.
Gently sucking in a breath in her heart, Huang Meuting closed her eyes and forced herself to stop daydreaming and fall asleep as soon as possible.
She didn't know how much time had passed before she finally fell asleep. In short, this was the worst sleep she had ever had in her entire life. She could feel that Shi Nan was actually in more pain than she was. He fell asleep even later than she was!
The next morning, Huang Meuting woke up early. After waking up, she was still unable to adapt to this strange environment for a while. When he moved his body and found that his waist was encircled by an iron arm, he realized that he was lying in Shi Nan's arms. Everything from last night slowly returned to her mind!
With a sudden thought, Huang Meding turned around and found that Shi Nan was fast asleep behind her. He fell asleep so late, he probably wouldn't wake up in such a short time. Last night … It really made things difficult for him!
The corners of Huang Meding's mouth curled up, revealing a sweet smile as she sized up the handsome face in front of her up and down. This was the first time he had had the chance to be so close, to size him up this way and that, and it felt so good!
After sizing him up for a long time, Huang Meuting could not help but raise her small hand, gently sweeping her fingers across his sword-like eyebrows. This man, the man she loved passionately, would he belong to her in the future? Would that day come?
Perhaps disturbed by her, Shi Nan slightly creased his brow, and gradually came to his senses. When he opened his eyes, he saw a mischievous smile on Huang Meding's face as she caressed his face with her fingers.
Seeing him wake up, Huang Meuting froze for a moment, her fingers frozen in midair. Then he chuckled and said uncomfortably: "Good morning, are you awake? I'm sorry, I woke you up. "
Although he had woken up, he still looked sleepy. Perhaps it was because he hadn't slept well last night.
Shi Nan held her hand and kissed her lips. Looking at her face, he smiled and said, "You tortured me to the point that I couldn't sleep. You woke me up so early in the morning. You really should feel embarrassed."
"Then continue sleeping, I won't disturb you anymore." Huang Meuting uncomfortably withdrew her hand and pulled it out of his chest, ready to get up. If she stayed in his arms again, she was afraid that he would feel even worse.
Shi Nan pulled her into his embrace, half pressing her down. He leaned over her and gently said, "I know you haven't slept well either. Sleep a little longer, otherwise you'll be very tired today."
"It's fine. I'm used to waking up early, so I can't fall asleep." Huang Meuting sat up again and snuck under the bed. She turned around and pressed down on his body as she stared at him, saying, "Sleep a little longer, you can wake up after you've woken up, okay?" You're not allowed to say no! "
Shi Nan was amused by her forceful attitude. Just as he was about to hug her, Huang Meuting flew away like a little bird.
After Huang Meuting cleaned up and changed her clothes, she walked out of the courtyard and found the air in the yard to be really good. After taking a deep breath, he saw a familiar figure working in a garden next door.
It turned out to be Mama Shi and Zhou Yun. They got up early in the morning to work. How diligent! Huang Meuting thought to herself. Didn't Zhou Yun want to go to the wedding ceremony today? Why hasn't he gone yet?
The corner of his mouth curved into a sweet smile as he walked over. At the entrance of the garden, he called out, "Good morning, Auntie."
Mama Shi raised her head and looked at her. She said in a lukewarm tone, "Breakfast is hot in the pot. Go and eat it yourself."
"I'm not used to eating breakfast. Auntie, what are you doing? I'll help you cook." Huang Meding walked in and stood by her side as she asked. She had never seen anything like this before.
"You don't know how to grow vegetables, so why would you help?" "Then, if you like it, go and pull out the grass." Mommy Shi pointed to a smoking vegetable patch that was covered in green.
Huang Meding looked at the lush green tobacco garden and walked over hesitantly. She squatted beside the vegetable garden and observed the seedlings that were growing on it. She couldn't tell what was grass and what was vegetables, but she didn't dare to ask. She was afraid that Mommy Shi would call her stupid!
Usually, it was Mrs Liu who bought vegetables for cooking. She had only seen cooked vegetables before, and had never seen such raw ones before! The last time she had cooked at Shi Nan's house, she had been to the market. The lush green had almost made her dizzy.
"Why aren't you still doing anything, pull all of these out." Zhou Yun urged as he pointed to a plant.
Huang Meuting quickly stretched out her hand and pulled out the plants that Zhou Yun had told her, one by one without the slightest hesitation. Because it had just rained last night, the vegetables were very dirty, and some of the grass was also very cut off.
For someone as delicate and tender as her, who had never worked before, it was naturally fatal. However, even though it was very painful, she still didn't make a sound. For Shi Nan, for Mother Shi to accept her, she was willing to accept any hardship!
While thinking about the scene where she was with Shi Nan last night and pulling the grass from the ground, a sweet feeling welled up in her heart. He never thought that Shi Nan would really be able to resist her. He was truly a gentleman amongst gentlemen!
She had endured the pain, but she was still willing to endure it. If it were another man, he would have eaten her long ago!
"Wah!" How did you pull out all my vegetables! " A sharp shout scared Huang Meuting so much that she immediately jumped up from the ground. She stared at the flustered and flustered mother Shi, then looked at the grass in her hands.
Mother Shi was so angry that her whole body was trembling. She gnashed her teeth and shouted, "I told you to pluck the grass, I didn't want you to pluck all my vegetables!"
Shocked by her high-pitched voice, Shi Nan and Shi Cheng's father and son rushed over, sizing up the furious Mother Shi and the flustered Huang Meuting and asking, "What's wrong? What happened?
"Miss Huang said she wanted to help out with the work, but ended up helping out instead." Zhou Yunhuan sneered as he glanced at Huang Meuting.
Huang Mei Ting looked at her and could not help but raise the grass in her hand to argue, "Zhou Yun, you were the one who told me this was grass. It should be cleaned." She lied to her? Huang Meuting was infuriated!
"Oh!" I said yes? Anyone with a bit of common sense would know that this is tobacco, right? " Zhou Yun picked up the few seedlings in her hands and said as he looked at her snappily.
"Exactly! You don't even know how to split food or grass, is there a girl like you? " cried Mummy, unable to bear it.
"So what if it's pulled out? Take it back and cook it. What's there to shout about!" Shi Cheng couldn't stand Mama Shi making a fuss, so he couldn't help but speak up for Huang Meuting.
Of course, Mama Shi couldn't stand his constant protection of Huang Meuting. "So small! The leaves haven't even fully grown yet! Boil them and eat them!"
"Mom, cook it, I'll eat it. Don't be angry." Seeing that Huang Meuting had lowered her head in a scolding manner, Shi Nan patted her mother on the shoulder and then took Huang Meuting's hand and said, "Go wash your hands and go inside the house to play."
He pulled her out of the garden and into the house.
"That's right, that's right. If Shi Nan can't finish it, I'll eat it. That's it." Shi Cheng shook his hands and headed inside the house.
"You guys …!" Mother Shi was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She pointed at the father and son who had no conscience and shouted, "You two heartless bastards! I have truly wasted thirty years of your service! "
As he said that, he chased after Shi Cheng unwillingly into the house and dragged him back, "All of you, stand still. "Stop right there!"
Huang Meuting was scared out of her wits by Mama Shi's exasperation. She stared at her with lingering fear. Shi Cheng grabbed her by the arm and dragged her into the bedroom, saying, "Stop screaming, come in!"
Huang Meding stared at the door that was slammed shut, worriedly looking at Shi Nan. The latter just smiled and carelessly comforted her, "My mom has such a temper. It's fine after a while, but she's actually very kind."
"Is that so?" In fact, she could also feel that Mama Shi was not a cold-hearted person, even better than her own mother.
"Come here and wash your hands." Shi Nan led her into the bathroom and rinsed her palms with hot water. Little by little, the mud on her hands leaked out, revealing her red, even scratched palms.
Shi Nan was stunned and held her hand. "Your hand is injured, why are you still working? The tobacco has thorns on it, don't you know? " There was a distinct reproach in his tone.
"I... "I don't know." She had never seen such a dish before!
Shi Nan immediately understood why she was embarrassed. Right, wasn't he asking for nothing? If she had known that there were thorns on the tobacco, she wouldn't have mistakenly pulled the tobacco out like it was grass.
With a pained breath, Shi Nan took a dry towel and lightly wiped her small hands, drying the droplets of water on it one by one. Then he pulled her towards the bedroom. "Come here, I'll apply some medicine for you."
"Don't, don't let auntie see." Huang Meding quickly retracted her painful hands and put them behind her back. She didn't want Mummy Shi to see that she was so pampered that she could hurt her hand just by pulling out a few vegetables.
