Lin Xi looked at the specialty in his hand, and could not help but sigh in his heart. It was so cheap.
Although two hundred dollars was not a lot of money, but to the old Lin Xi, this was practically a month's rent for his room. Of course, the room fee after he rented the Elder Shu's house was enough for him to eat and drink for half a month.
However, it was inevitable that he would sigh with emotion. After all, half a month ago he was still a poor guy, and the values that were rooted in his mind were still hard to change at the moment.
Maybe seeing that Lin Xi had not followed him for a long time, Ang Youyong shouted loudly: "Brother Xi, what are you doing, hurry up, don't lose him later."
Hearing Ang Youyong's shout, Lin Xi carried his stuff and followed along: "I bought some local specialties for my mother, when I go back I'll let her have a taste, my mom still hasn't tasted your specialties yet."
Ang Youyong rolled his eyes: "Why didn't you say so earlier? Why are you buying these things here?
Lin Xi declined to comment. He glanced at the big and small bag in Ang Youyong's hand: "Then what are you carrying in your hand?"
Ang Youyong shot a glance at Zhang Zhiyan and Xia Qi who were already far away, and said in a low voice: "Isn't this taking care of the two aunties' fun? If you're not happy, it'll be terrible if you go back to kneel on the washboard."
When he heard the two words "washboard", Lin Xi's interest was immediately piqued. "Oh, so you're saying that you bought your washboard?"
Ang Youyong drooped his head like a kola, and lamented: "It's even an extra big name, this life of mine is so bitter!"
From time to time, the four of them would walk outside for three hours before the sky turned dark. Suddenly, their stomachs would growl and the roadside stalls would return home. They would probably go back to their own homes to busy with dinner.
At that time, Zhang Zhiyan and Xia Qi had already finished their purchases, and it looked like they had reaped a great harvest from their joyous talk, while Xia Qi continued to whisper softly into Zhang Zhiyan's ears. No one knew what she was talking about, but when Zhang Zhiyan heard it, she unexpectedly showed a look of bashfulness, it was truly inconceivable.
Seeing Lin Xi walking towards him, Zhang Zhiyan also came forward to welcome him. She also took out a string of hand string s and gave it to Lin Xi, smiling as she said, "Lin Xi, I'll give you a string of prayer beads. I just bought them from the stall over there, we bought a string each."
Strictly speaking, it was not a hand string, but a prayer bead. It was the kind of prayer bead that had 108 pearls, but because many young people liked to wear it, it was already used as an ornament.
Lin Xi looked at the prayer beads that Zhang Zhiyan handed to him. The technique was not very good, and it looked to be new as well. The string of beads was also just an ordinary red rope.
In addition, it was unknown whether it was made by man or nature, but each bead was covered with layers of "cloud patterns" and was extremely beautiful. Moreover, each bead emitted a faint fragrance, and when added together, the fragrance was a bit richer.
With just a glance, Lin Xi was attracted by this string of prayer beads' plain and unadorned appearances, and after saying a few words of thanks, he wrapped the bead's structure around his hand a few times. Furthermore, he heard from Zhang Zhiyan that this string of prayer beads was only worth fifty dollars.
However, what Lin Xi did not know was that, when Zhang Zhiyan passed the prayer beads to him, she was actually extremely nervous, feeling both anticipation and bashful at the same time. Until he saw Lin Xi accepting the prayer beads, Zhang Zhiyan's face had a faint blush, but because of the color of the sky, Lin Xi did not see it.
Perhaps this was what the TV series said, what the girls thought. The boys couldn't understand it, so they didn't want to guess.
When Lin Xi and the others returned to the farmhouse to enjoy, Qin Yu was already waiting for them in the courtyard. Furthermore, the food had already been prepared, and they could immediately start eating as soon as they returned.
Seeing the big and small bag in Ang Youyong's hands, Qin Yu couldn't help but scold with a smile: "In order to wait for you guys, my stomach was already growling with hunger. I guess you guys came back again … where did you guys run off to?"
Ang Youyong threw the large and small bags of food into the trunk of the Volkswagen and panted heavily as he replied, "Let's go for a stroll. We're back now, if not, Brother Yu will just wait a bit longer.
The farmland's food was nourishing and the taste was extremely delicious, but Lin Xi still felt that it was not as delicious as his mother's, but looking at the people eating happily, he was not willing to be left behind, and only after eating until his stomach was perfectly round did he eat off the table in satisfaction.
However, Ang Youyong and Xia Qi did not seem to be interested in playing cards or chatting at all. They went back to their rooms to sleep after eating dinner, and Qin Yu did the same thing. She went back to her own room after saying goodbye, and brought her laptop along with him.
Suddenly, only Zhang Zhiyan and Lin Xi were left in the courtyard, it seemed that their sleepiness was not very obvious.
"Zhiyan, I'll be going back in two days."
"Do you want my Ming Zhou back?"
"No, I'm going back home. If there's a chance in the future, you are welcome to come to my hometown to play. I'll bring you everywhere, you are definitely not worse than Lu Zhou."
"Alright, I'll definitely come …"
After chatting with Zhang Zhiyan for almost an hour, Lin Xi finally returned to his room. But just as he was about to return to his room, he heard Ang Youyong's thunder-like snoring sound. Lin Xi really couldn't endure it any longer.
While Ang Youyong was in a daze, he muttered something under his breath, changed his position, and then continued sleeping. He was truly very obedient, and not only was Lin Xi flabbergasted, he was even flabbergasted.
Could it be that Xia Qi had taught him so well? She even said that a married man was different!
Lin Xi couldn't help but ask in a loud voice, "What have you been doing these past two days? For you to be so tired, why are your wedding night so unrestrained?"
The dazed Ang Youyong, upon hearing Lin Xi's words, covered his head with the blanket and said in a low voice, "We're old married couples, so why are you still controlling yourself? We've already miscounted the money for the wedding ceremony, we counted several times in a row until we got it right, how can we not be tired?"
Lin Xi suddenly felt quite speechless. Their wedding night was really different from others.
