Chapter 020.
Li Shuang and He Shuo wanted to help Wen home first, so Servant Huai Ming carried Zhen Zhen back first.
The night is dark, Zhen Zhen lying on the back of the service Huai Ming did not speak again, her head tilted on his shoulders, breathing still close to his ears, hot with the smell of alcohol, his ears also burned hot.
When he arrived home and opened the door, Shi Huai Ming carried Zhen Zhen into her room.
Zhen Zhen was already asleep, so he did not wake Zhen Zhen, reach out and pull the light, directly put Zhen Zhen on the bed, and then help her take off her shoes and socks, pull on the quilt cover.
When he put on the quilt, he saw Zhen Zhen’s face and was stunned for a moment.
Her face was small, and because she had drunk too much wine, her whole face was colored with a light red color.
She was a little whiter than when she first came to the city, white with pink, like a peach blossom in early spring.
Zhen Zhen twisted a few times on the bed to find a comfortable position to continue sleeping.
Serving Huai Ming returned to his senses, busy straightening up, pulling the lamp in the room, turning around and going out to his own room with the door closed.
Not feeling sleepy for the time being, he picked up the book and read it again after returning to his room.
But when his eyes fell on the words, those words did not form complete sentences to his brain.
The soft touch on his back seemed to be still there, and his ears were still hot from the alcohol.
A few moments, 渚嶆樊閾� closed the book and put it down.
He got up and went to the restroom, and took a shower.
***
Because she was drunk, Jenny slept very deeply.
When she woke up in the morning, her head was still confused, she rubbed her messed up hair to get up, and with a confused expression, she opened the door and went out of the room, only to see that Servant Huai Ming was arranging chopsticks at the dining table.
Servant Huai Ming set up the chopsticks and looked at her, usually said, “Wash up and eat.”
Zhen Zhen stayed for a moment to return to her senses, quickly apologized and said, “I am sorry, I seemed to drink …… too much last night ……”
How to go out of the restaurant can not remember, how to come back even more can not remember.
She has never done such an out of the ordinary thing, her heart is very weak, and her face was red when she said the words.
Of course, she did not stand more, said immediately went to the restroom to wash up, wash up back to the room to comb hair.
Hurriedly cleaned up to the table to sit down, pick up chopsticks have not yet spoken, the service Huai Ming has finished eating.
He put down his chopsticks and got up, ”I have to go to class, you eat slowly. After you finish eating, you need to concentrate on all the vocabulary words that you learned last week, and copy them again to consolidate them.”
Zhen Zhen cupped her chopsticks in her hands and answered, “Okay.”
Without another word, Servant Huai Ming put on his hat and left the house.
Seeing him go out, Zhen Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.
She picked up a steamed bun and took a bite, then took a bite of salted vegetables and a sip of rice.
After eating and cleaning up the table and dishes, she went to take another shower.
After showering and washing her clothes, she returned to her room and sat down, re-brushing and braiding her hair and rubbing on the snow cream.
Now she used a normal amount of snow cream, no longer like when she first came here when she put on just a little bit at a time.
After rubbing on the snowflake cream and smelling good, Zhen Zhen went to sit down in Servant Huai Ming’s room again and gathered herself to study.
Yesterday’s play was too much, and it was really a bit difficult to concentrate, and Zhen Zhen still felt dizzy all the time.
She sat down at the writing table and was dizzy for a little while.
It was easy for her to calm down and carefully consolidate all the content she had learned last week.
Finishing the task, she looked up at the alarm clock and saw that there was still time left, so Zhen Zhen got up and left the house to go to the food store.
She didn’t walk out the door for more than a few steps when she heard Wu Dafeng’s voice.
Wu Dafeng asked her, “Zhen Zhen, where are you going?”
Zhen Zhen turned around and replied, “Sister-in-law, I’m going to buy some vegetables and come back.”
Wu Dafeng coughed, “What kind of vegetables are you buying? There are so many vegetables in the vegetable field, if you want to eat, come over and gather some.”
Zhen Zhen stood and spoke with Wu Dafeng for a few moments, and then didn’t go to the sub-food store.
She went to Wu Dafeng’s field to pick some vegetables, and then sat down to help Wu Dafeng with her sewing.
Wu Dafeng’s family has a large population, and her children grow up fast and change their clothes and shoes frequently, so she has an endless supply of work to do.
Wu Dafeng put the upper of her shoes on the soles.
She asked Zhen Zhen, “When did you come back last night? I saw that it was dark and you didn’t come back.”
Zhen Zhen thought back for a moment and shook her head, “I don’t know, I got confused from drinking.”
Wu Dafeng stared up in shock, “She really took you drinking? Came back drunk?”
Zhen Zhen’s face showed embarrassment, “When I came back, how I came back, I can’t even remember.”
Wu Dafeng exploded, “Goodness gracious, this is too much!”
Zhen Zhen still had some embarrassment on her face, but she couldn’t help but say, “But it was quite fun.”
The kind of happiness where you don’t have to think about anything, where there are no constraints or worries, and where you are completely relaxed, is simply too happy.
Seeing Zhen Zhen like this, Wu Dafeng said in a serious tone, “Zhen Zhen, this is not something a good woman would do! If you follow Li Shuang and hang out like this, you’re going to be led astray, aren’t you? Your man didn’t scold you for drinking like this?”
Zhen Zhen shook her head, “He told me to concentrate and study hard, but he didn’t say anything else.”
Wu Dafeng: “Your man is also really strange, should not care, should not care blindly.”
This should control things, naturally, is to not let Zhen Zhen and Li Shuang go out to wave, wave without a woman look. And shouldn’t be in charge of things is, shouldn’t let her in the age that should have a child with children to live, to learn what laborers of knowledge and culture.
Zhen Zhen smiled, “Maybe he wants me to experience it too.”
Wu Dafeng was still serious, “Experience what? Experience a few times to learn bad, the mind is not at home, do not know where to fly, all day long do not care about the husband and child, that is still a woman?”
Zhen Zhen had two little people fighting in her head.
One is the life that she has taken for granted since childhood and the reasoning that she knows in the world, and the other is the new life that she has come into contact with in recent days, as well as some new reasoning that she has heard.
The two little people didn’t fight much.
Zhen Zhen stretched her head to look at the height of the sun outside, and said to Wu Dafeng, “Sister-in-law, I have to go home and cook, and I’ll come back to help you with your needlework sometime.”
Wu Dafeng should also be cooking, so she naturally answered and let her go.
Zhen Zhen returned home and tied on her apron to make lunch, her mind still thinking back and forth about the things she experienced yesterday.
When I think about it, I feel that it is really out of the ordinary, but at the same time, I feel that it is new and exciting and interesting.
Of course it was also these new and exciting and interesting things that made her gain all kinds of insights.
***
Noon class time.
Old Zhou had something to do and stayed for a while, so Huaeming and He Shuo went home first.
As the two of them walked down the road with no one else around, He Shuo asked Servant Huai Ming, “Brother, what’s your situation?”
Servant Huai Ming didn’t immediately understand what he meant and asked back, “What’s what?”
He Shuo whispered, “Last night when you were behind your wife’s back, your wife asked that question, what’s the situation?”
Understood.
Serving Huai Ming quickly said, “Don’t guess, I’m normal.”
He Shuo looked at Serving Huai Ming for a while and asked in a low voice, “You couples sleep in separate rooms, right?”
Servant Huai Ming didn’t really want to talk about this, but had to respond.
He looked around and then at He Shuo, “Did Zhen Zhen tell you?”
He Shuo: “No, my wife saw it. When your wife first arrived, we went to your house for dinner and my wife went to her room with her and saw it then.”
Serving Huai Ming: “Your wife is really careful.”
He Shuo: “I see that you are more or less abnormal.”
Serving Huai Ming: “Don’t fucking bullshit, I don’t have that kind of problem.”
He Shuo: “Then you put a daughter-in-law like that at home, you don’t have that aspect of ……”
“Uh-huh……” cleared his throat twice to show his meaning.
Listening to He Shuo’s words, Servant Huai Ming unconsciously recalled his own last night carrying Zhen Zhen home, the softness that belonged to a girl alone that was felt in his palms and back, and the warm breath that was felt in his ears, as well as that flushed face.
He quickly retracted his thoughts and returned He Shuo’s sentence, “It’s not like I’m fucking livestock.”
Even if there was a need in that area, even if there was an instinctive urge, he wouldn’t do something like that.
It shouldn’t be a casual thing.
Sure enough, he was different from the mundane.
He Shuo raised his hand and gave him a thumbs up.
***
Zhen Zhen finished cooking and untied her apron and hung it up just as Squire Huai Ming opened the door and came back.
She finished the rice in the kitchen, brought it out and put it on the dining table, and greeted Shi Huai Ming, “Back.”
Shi Huai Ming hung up his hat and replied, going to the kitchen to wash his hands and take his chopsticks.
He went outside and sat down at the table to eat. He didn’t take the initiative to talk to Zhen Zhen about last night’s incident, as if nothing had happened.
Zhen Zhen hesitated for a while and picked up the topic herself and asked him, “How did I …… get back last night?”
Having just spoken to He Shuo about last night’s events, Servant Huai Ming was now very calm.
He lifted his gaze to look at Zhen Zhen, “You’ve forgotten all about it?”
Zhen Zhen nodded in embarrassment, her voice low, “I didn’t remember after thinking about it for half a day.”
Her clearest memory rested on the toast with Shizuku, and then after more toasts, her memory became more and more blurred.
It was good to forget, so as not to be embarrassed.
Servant Huai Ming simply said, “Seeing that you guys didn’t come back very late, He Shuo and I went to the restaurant to look for you, and I carried you back.”
It did sound quite uncharacteristic.
Zhen Zhen tried to explain, “I didn’t mean to drink like that, at that time I seemed to have a bit of brain fever ……”
The main reason is that the atmosphere at the table was very hot and surging, and she and Ah Wen were drinking to their heads, making a scene that was hardly like her own.
Rather understandably, Squire Huai Ming did not mean to blame Zhen Zhen.
He nodded, looked at Zhen Zhen and said, “If you don’t have the ability to drink, if you don’t have reliable people around you in the future, remember to never drink outside. It’s not safe for a girl to drink like that outside.”
Zhen Zhen hurriedly nodded, “I remember!”
Servant Huai Ming looked at Zhen Zhen for a while longer, and in the end didn’t mention that thing where she asked him on his back if he was inactive.
After a moment of silence, he voiced out to end the topic, “Let’s eat, and continue to learn new things after eating.”
Jen nods again, “Uh, okay.”
***
After eating the two went to their room as usual and sat down.
Servant Huai Ming opened his textbook and taught Jen a new text, new vocabulary words, new phrases, and explanations of the phrases.
For every vocabulary word he taught, he would take a pen and write it for Zhen Zhen, so that Zhen Zhen could learn the order of the strokes.
And when Zhen Zhen wrote after him, she could write all of them, just not in a good way.
When it comes to the more difficult characters, Zhen Zhen writes them in a more bizarre way.
The last character she learned today, “Autumn”, she couldn’t write it even after several times, it was written in a way that was not like 绂�, and fire was a bit like fire, and every stroke landed in a place that Shui Huaiming couldn’t have imagined.
After Zhen Zhen finished writing, Shui Huai Ming looked at the several “autumn” characters she wrote and fell into deep thought.
Zhen Zhen also knew that her writing was not very good, and said with a red face: “Isn’t it a bit like earthworms crawling on the ground? I’ll practice harder, I’m sure I’ll be able to get it right. ……”
Servant Huai Ming collected his concentration and gently held his breath.
He didn’t say anything out loud, but suddenly got up and stood next to Zhen Zhen, bent down to hold on to Zhen Zhen’s hand that was holding the brush, and said to her, “Don’t exert force on your hand, follow the force of my brush strokes, and feel the feeling.”
Zhen Zhen’s hand was wrapped in Shi Huai Ming’s large hand.
Servant Huai Ming stood next to her, almost in the position of encircling her entire body in his arms, speaking in a voice above her head.
Her heart instantly beat wildly without control, and her face turned another shade of red.
She was still confused when Servant Huai Ming held her hand and finished writing an autumn character.
Reacting to the fact that she had wandered off, before Servant Huai Ming could let go of her hand, she hurriedly said, “Can you write it again?”
Having wandered off, she had no idea how he had just taken her hand and written it out.
Servant Huai Ming retracted his gaze to look at her and subconsciously froze when he saw that her ears and cheeks were tinted red.
Realizing something, he suddenly felt that the palm of his hand holding Zhen Zhen’s hand was also hot.
Because of the heat, he subconsciously wanted to let go and let go of Zhen Zhen, but hesitated for a moment without letting go.
Teaching writing by hand was a normal thing after all, there was no need to make it so abnormal.
He didn’t say anything out loud, and held Zhen Zhen’s hand to write the character for “Autumn” again.
After writing this time, he immediately let go of Zhen Zhen’s hand, straightened up and said: “I have something to go out for a while, you learn these new words and then copy them to familiarize yourself with, I will come back in a while to teach you math.”
After saying that, without waiting for Zhen Zhen to respond, he turned around and went out.
Zhen Zhen swept him out the door with her residual light.
When he went out, she let out a long breath and raised her hand to pat her hot face again.
With her mind calmed down a bit, Zhen Zhen held the pen and continued copying the characters, especially the character for Autumn, writing it neatly several times as Shui Huai Ming had just taught her, her mouth whispering at the same time, “Autumn, Autumn of Autumn.”
Servant Huai Ming went out and did nothing else, lighting a cigarette and holding it in his mouth.
After smoking a cigarette and coming back, he looked no different than usual, still treating everything with great rigor and seriousness.
He sat down on the chair next to Zhen Zhen, without saying anything else, his voice was flat and straight to the point, “Open your math book and turn to the new course you’re going to learn.”
