Chapter 42 Falling in love

◎A sweet beginning◎

Although Zhao Zhengxi is not good at speaking, he is the best talker among the four brothers. Zhao Taohua could only tell him his purpose, and he agreed without thinking.

The next step is to let Zhao Zhengbei make a lantern. The lantern is the kind that can be carried by hand. If it is too big, it will waste materials and it will be difficult to sell.

The cloth doll he made is almost finished. Not to mention that it looks full and cute, it is indeed much better looking than the first one.

"I'm going to the next village to deliver the doll, will you come with me?"

"I'm not going, I'm staying at home to accompany my third brother to write couplets." The reason why Zhao Taohua didn't go was to meet Shen Zhichu, but she wouldn't tell him.

Seeing that she wasn't going, Zhao Zhengbei put the doll in a cloth bag and went to the next village alone.

When Aunt Qiu saw the doll, she smiled brightly and was very satisfied, and then handed him a basket of eggs she brought with her, "Zhengbei, take this, thank you so much this time!"

Zhao Zhengbei took them and said "thank you", but due to his personality, he couldn't say any other polite words.

Because he was here to deliver a baby today, he didn't bring any other merchandise to sell, so he didn't go to the educated youth site but returned the same way. However, he was stopped just after walking a few steps.

"Comrade Zhao, wait a minute!"

He turned around and saw Lin Man.

Lin Man caught up with him, her panting face with a blush, and she stopped in front of him before she spoke, "Comrade Zhao, are you here to sell things today?"

"What do you have to do?" Zhao Zhengbei frowned slightly.

In Lin Man's eyes, his question sounded a bit arrogant, so she rolled her eyes in her heart, but she still kept a gentle smile on her face, "I'm here to thank you, thank you for your help last time."

As she said that, she took out two boiled eggs from her pocket and handed them to him.

She thought: No one can resist the temptation of eggs, right?

Unfortunately, Zhao Zhengbei's expression was still indifferent when he saw the eggs. After all, he had a golden rooster laying eggs every day, and he was almost tired of eating eggs.

He raised the basket in his hand and exposed the things in it to her, "Thank you for your kindness, I have it here."

Lin Man looked at his basket of eggs and took her hand back awkwardly. She felt that this man must be her nemesis, who could make her embarrassed all the time.

"Well, then okay..."

Seeing that she was smiling reluctantly, Zhao Zhengbei took out a piece of orange candy from his pocket and handed it to her, "This is for you to sweeten your mouth, I'm leaving first."

He gave the candy for no other purpose, just to apologize for his straightforward refusal just now, but in Lin Man's view, he was bribed with bad intentions, but what she wanted was his bad intentions, so that she could punish him.

"Thank you, I will eat well."

Zhao Zhengbei did not respond, but nodded politely and left.

...

At this time, in a bungalow in the county, Shen Zhichu was making a fire, and Zhao Taohua was sitting beside him with his chin in his hand and watching.
