Dressed as a beautiful educated youth in the 1970s

Chapter 20: Snow melts

At night, the moonlight is dim, the breeze is gentle, and occasionally leaves fall slowly like dancing. After dinner, Shen He took a bowl of porridge to feed the dog. Huo Xinghua followed her, looking like he had something to say. After she poured the food into the dog's bowl, the man finally spoke.

"I signed up for the infrastructure team and will leave in a few days."

Shen He had heard about this, and now stood up and smiled: "Be careful." I heard that it was to dig a tunnel, and the current technology was not developed, so it was still very dangerous.

"I have made an agreement with Aunt Liu from the front street. I will let her carry water for you during my absence. Two loads a day is enough for you."

"What did you give her?" Aunt Liu is notoriously stingy. Would she agree to help without some benefits?

"Sweet potatoes. There are so many sweet potatoes in the cave cellar. I gave her a few bags."

Shen He shook her head and laughed. No wonder Aunt Liu, who was so stingy, actually said she wanted to exchange for vermicelli. It turned out that there was extra income. "Actually, I can do it myself. I will pick less at the beginning and slowly get used to it."

Huo Xinghua heard this, and his clear eyes became dim. "You don't want to have anything to do with me?... I said, I like you and am willing to do anything for you. You don't have to feel burdened."

Shen He didn't know what else to say. She should find a house to live in quickly! Otherwise, under such a roof, she would be seen by everyone. I don't know how long her strong castle can defend.

Seeing her turn around and leave, Huo Xinghua was very nervous behind her. It's really hard to guess what a girl is thinking. Why is she angry again?

He eagerly reached out and grabbed her: "Did I say something wrong? Don't be angry..."

Worry, heartache, reluctance, all kinds of emotions intertwined in his eyes. Shen He looked back and suddenly felt pity, thinking that he was so cruel. Like a soul that gave up in the end.

"It's really good to be alone. You don't have to worry about other people's emotions, moods, or attitudes." She smiled helplessly at him, "Why do you have to find a companion and trouble for yourself?"

Huo Xinghua was stunned by her novel remarks. After thinking for a while, he replied, "How can it be just to find a companion? This is..." He pointed to the front yard and the houses in the village, "If you want to find a companion, here, there are so many unmarried girls here, why should I..."

His dark eyes stared at her deeply, as if he wanted to convey his love through this window of his soul.

"When I first read "A Gentleman Wants a Fair Lady" in school, a group of boys discussed behind the scenes what a fair lady is. Everyone talked about it but couldn't come up with a clear idea.

When I first saw you, these words came to my mind. The two birds are singing on the river island, a fair lady, a gentleman wants a fair lady.

But I found that I don't care whether you are a fair lady or not. You splash water on white jasmine, let Saihu scare her, or even fight with others."

He held his head and smiled softly: "No matter what you do, I think you are cute."

Shen He blushed at what he said, and turned around and walked into the house. This man doesn't talk much, but why is he completely different when facing her?

After the tenth month of the lunar calendar, the land was barren. Many men went to the infrastructure team, and the rest did some work in the team, such as picking up stones from the dung fields. It looked busy, but it was actually meaningless.
