Chapter 5 Knowing each other in the market (1)

    Yan Huanhuan was standing outside the kitchen door, and saw the figure of Aunt Wu next door flickering outside, and then she saw Uncle Wu entering her yard. Neither of these couples likes to join in the fun. The couple didn't show up when Fang Xianniang came to make trouble that day.

    Uncle Wu was born ordinary, he was not tall and looked ordinary, and he belonged to the kind that could not be found in a crowd. The wife he married was a good-looking woman. She looked not young but still had a charm. She must have been a beauty when she was young. Aunt Wu also saw her, and she nodded and smiled at her with her sleeves covered, as if she was holding a pipa and half covering her face.

    Not long after Uncle Wu entered, Zhong Ting personally escorted him out.

    "This matter will trouble Tingzi."

    "It's all neighbors, so it's right to help each other."

    Uncle Wu smiled and greeted Yan Huanhuan with a smile. He was really ordinary, and she almost forgot what he looked like after he had just left the Zhong family's yard. The appearance of this man is really unforgettable.

    At dinner, she finally knew what Uncle Wu wanted Zhong Ting to do. Uncle Wu is a watchman. Because there is something to do during the day tomorrow, he specially entrusts Zhong Ting to watch for him at night. She observed the expression of the man opposite her, and her complexion was indeed much better. The white cloth wrapped around his head had already been removed, and he sat there in his dark clothes, which really didn't look like a disabled person.

    He promised to be on duty for Uncle Wu, why did he tell Zhou Bei that his head injury was so bad that he couldn't even read the book? I always feel that he is not what a man of this age should look like, and his bottomless eyes contain too much incomprehension.

    "Then be careful."

    "Well."

    That night, Yan Huanhuan fell asleep listening to the sound of clappers. The man's cold voice knocked and shouted "Be careful with the candles", the more she listened, the more incongruous she felt. In the end, the corners of her mouth were raised.

    A night without a dream, when I woke up it was already dawn.

    Zhong Ting went to sleep naturally, and she was plucking grass in the yard by herself. Looking at Aunt Wu next door to send Uncle Wu out, the husband and wife bid farewell outside the yard. Uncle Wu changed into new clothes, although he was still ordinary to the dust, he looked at people with a lot of spirit. Aunt Wu lowered her head, not knowing what to tell him. Such a loving appearance, like a first-time married man and woman, makes people envious.

    She didn't see any children next door, and guessed that the couple might have no children. Aunt Wu said goodbye to Uncle Wu, and when she saw her, she smiled shyly again, and then went into the house with her sleeves hidden. No one came out until noon.

    After a while, Zhong Ting woke up.

    Not long after the meeting, someone knocked on the door.

    Yan Huanhuan opened the door, and the person standing outside was Aunt Wu. Her eyes were flushed with tears, and she had obviously just cried. That timid and frightened look made her feel pity, even if she was not young.

    "Aunt Wu, what's the matter with you?"

    "Is the nephew of the Zhong family here? I have something to look for..."
