There were faint noises coming from outside the window. The room was quiet with shallow breathing sounds coming one after another. In the middle of the night, the sky was full of bright stars. The door made a slight "creaking" sound, opened and closed again.
Jiang Zefeng's eyelashes trembled on the bed, he opened his eyes and turned over.
The room was silent, and Jiang Zefeng did not seem tired.
After about half an hour, there was a slight sound from the door again. Gu Yinzhou came back. As soon as he got on the bed, he felt an arm around his waist, which contained a strong power. He paused for breath.
"Where have you been?" Jiang Zefeng asked in a hoarse voice, sounding like he had just woken up.
Gu Yinzhou whispered, "Did the toilet wake you up?"
"Yeah, you're responsible for the noise that kept me awake." Jiang Zefeng said with a hum.
He became dishonest again.
Gu Yinzhou pressed him down and said in a hoarse voice, "Stop making trouble."
Jiang Zefeng didn't know what Gu Yinzhou did when he went out, but he definitely didn't go to the toilet. It was impossible for him to have the energy to have an affair. He cleaned up everything that needed to be cleaned before going to bed.
He lowered his eyelids, hiding the expression in his eyes, closed his eyes and held Gu Yinzhou in his arms.
The next morning, when he was carrying a bucket to the pond, he met Chen Qianhu on the road. Chen Qianhu was carrying two buckets of water and walking back with unsteady steps, his lips so pale that he could not hide the color.
"Jiang Er...Aqiu..." He sneezed and Jiang Zefeng dodged.
"Not yet." he asked.
"No." Chen Qianhu rubbed his nose, "Are you going to get some water too?"
Jiang Zefeng said "hmm", and seeing that he was wearing little, he asked, "Aren't you cold?"
"It's hot from working." Chen Qianhu said, and coughed a few more times.
Jiang Zefeng felt that his illness would not be cured in a short time. The two chatted for a few words, and when they were about to leave, Chen Qianhu called him again.
"Jiang Er." There was some hesitation on his face.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Zefeng asked.
Chen Qianhu: "I... forget it."
He thought about it and didn't say anything.
"Forget it, just say what you want to say." Jiang Zefeng made a "tsk" sound. He didn't like others to stop talking midway.
"That's...your brother." Chen Qianhu simply put down the shoulder pole and said, "I saw him staying up late last night and running to the fields. What was he doing?"
Jiang Zefeng paused, then changed the subject: "What are you doing up late at night?"
Chen Qianhu: "Pee."
Next to the pigpen behind the Chen family's house is a toilet, and behind that is the field. He slept in a daze last night, and when he got up in the middle of the night, he saw a figure on the ridge of the field. He was almost scared. When he looked closely, he found that it was the cheap stupid brother picked up by the Jiang family.
Jiang Zefeng: "Oh, him too."
Chen Qianhu: "..."
"Maybe you are dreaming." Jiang Zefeng said with a smile.
