I am a Good Man

Tang Xuan hid in the quilt for a while, asked Ji Yang to put on her a warm base coat, opened the quilt and went downstairs.

Father Ji came back. He walked very slowly, with deep wrinkles on his face, and the whole person was a bit dark. I heard that he used to work **** the construction site, but he was injured in an accident and his legs and feet were not very convenient.

"Hello, uncle." Tang Xuan said hello first.

"Let's stay cold below, go up." Father Ji looked at her, his eyes were somewhat satisfied, and he said something in a rare good mood.

"I'm going to see what Auntie is doing." Tang Xuan didn't want to give them the impression of being lazy.

"Fucking it." Although Father Ji said that, his eyes were even more satisfied.

In the kitchen.

Ji Mu had already cooked the food and was cooking the food. Seeing her come in, she quickly said, "I don't need your help here. Go out and sit? Let's chat, it will be fine for a while."

Tang Xuan laughed while chatting with her and started fighting.

Chatting with people is her strong point. The clients she meets are various, which is much harder than this.

"There is no reason for you to cook." Ji Mu called Ji Yang.

The other party walked over and looked at Tang Xuan with a smile, "Mom, just sit down, sit next to you and still have a fire. She hasn't adapted to the cold weather."

Ji Mu has a gentle human nature, and never let her go out. Instead, she cared about her and took a small bench to let her sit closer to the fire.

Tang Xuan's task was to add firewood to it. After a while, Ji Yang also moved a stool and sat next to her, occasionally delivering food to Ji's mother.

Originally Ji Mu was cooking alone, but the small kitchen was crowded with three people, and laughter was heard from time to time.

Finally, even Father Ji walked in and listened to a few people.

The night is getting dark, and the aroma of the food is also coming out.

Braised chicken, fried bean curd with pork, lotus root fried with sour radish, stir-fried cabbage, green onion omelette, and a tofu soup.

A few home-cooked dishes are considered plentiful for four people.

In the living room, the dishes were already on the table, Tang Xuan set up the stools, but the indoor lighting was a bit dim and hazy.

She is indeed a little uncomfortable.

This feeling is like roadside lights. It's not time for a walk. She still likes a brighter environment.

Although I think so, I can't say that Ji Yang seems to know her inner thoughts, "Mom, is this light bulb broken?"

"We have light bulbs. Look at my brain. If I haven't changed it, I forgot it." Ji Mu said and walked to her room.

Her quarter-father’s room is on the first floor, next to the kitchen.

"I'll get a ladder and change the light bulb." Ji Yang said and strode to the warehouse upstairs.

Tang Xuan stood in place, looking at the sitting father, who seemed to be frustrated and helpless again.

After thinking about it, he was suddenly injured and started to move inconveniently. This kind of thing he used to do, but now he can't do it.

For a moment, she didn't know how to comfort, and she didn't dare to say anything rashly.

Ji Yang took down the ladder and took the light bulb that Ji Mu had taken. Tang Xuan walked over and held up the ladder, and he replaced the light bulb in threes or twos.

Turn on the light again, and the room is bright.

"The bulb should be replaced in time if it is broken, otherwise it is not good for the eyes." Ji Yang installed the replaced one, and then threw it into the trash can.

"Mom knows." Mother Ji smiled and looked at Tang Xuan, "Xuan Xuan is hungry, right? Sit down and eat quickly."

"Auntie, sit down too." Tang Xuan said to her.

Ji Mu smiled openly, urging Ji Yang to add briquettes to the stove, and then pushed the stove to Tang Xuan's side.

In today’s society where electric stoves are commonly used as heaters, the Ji’s stove is probably used for more than ten years. It is made of stone mud and has a rusty iron sheet on the outside.

Put the briquettes in the stove to generate heat.

"No, I'm not cold." Tang Xuan refused repeatedly, "Just leave you and uncle over there."

"We are all used to this weather. If you catch a cold, you won't be able to get better. You are all a family. I know you need it." Ji Yang dragged her towards her.

Tang Xuan was embarrassed and couldn't talk about him.

Ji Mu knew that she was embarrassed and didn't smile, but instead served her a meal, "Eat first, eat more."

"Thank you Auntie." She took it.

Ji's father is an unsmiling person, and speaks very well, but he will change the meat and put it in front of her during the meal.

"Xiaoyang, why did you lose so much? Eat more, is it too hard to work?" Ji Mu looked at Ji Yang, her fleshy face disappeared, but she felt distressed, and continued, " Eat some meat and get fat back."

"Cough, cough, cough." Ji Yang almost choked halfway through the meal, put a piece of meat for Tang Xuan, and looked at Mother Ji, "Mom, do you know how hard I took to lose weight? Was it handsome before?"

"Why? Now like bamboo poles, eat more meat." Ji Mu denied without even thinking, with a look of disgust.

"What bamboo pole? It's too exaggerated." Ji Yang was dissatisfied.

"Young people like to toss around." Ji's father also had a straight face, with a preaching tone, "Making some tricks."

"Yes, I won't say it." Ji Yang shut up.

"Don't listen to his nonsense, Xuanxuan, let's eat more. It's a blessing to be able to eat. How can there be so much attention?" Ji Mu said, holding the spoon on the side, and gave Tang Xuan a spoonful of chicken.

"Yeah." Tang Xuan nodded very obediently.

The older generation does not worry too much like them. In many cases, this generation is anxious because it thinks too much.

Halfway through the meal, Ji's father suddenly said, "The house at home has not been decorated yet. I'm afraid you don't like it. When you get married, you can decorate it in any style you want."

This is to explain the primitiveness of the room. After all, even the living room is just painted with white walls, and it becomes a little yellow after a long time. The ground is only a cement floor, and there are no tiles.

"Yes, we are decorating when you get married in two years. If you come back to work, you can build a kitchen upstairs." Ji Mu said.

She knew that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was tense, and she thought about it.

"What kitchen to build? We two will come back to work? Aren't we starving to death? The house will not be decorated for the time being. When we get married, we will consider taking you to the city, right Xuanxuan?" Ji Yang said and looked at Tang Xuan. .

She was eating a small bite, and nodded when she heard the sound, "Yeah."

"Where are we going to do? I won't go!" Ji's father had already pulled his face and refused without hesitation.

Ji Mu hurriedly pulled him under the table and said softly, "Your dad and I are used to staying here. We go there and we are not familiar with the land. We still need to take care of the crops at home."

They are not capable. They cannot buy Ji Yang's house in the city. The house they live in is still Tang Xuan's. If they go, what do others think?

After all, I still don't want to be a burden to my son.

"How much can I grow corn for a year? Xuanxuan and I want to get married next year. When the time comes, the child will always need to be taken care of. It will cost five thousand yuan a month for a nanny. I don’t know if I will take care of it. Less." Ji Yang looked sad.

"Five thousand." Ji Mu took a deep breath, looking struggling, "Then... Then, will Mom take care of it then?"

I heard that big cities are under great pressure. If Ji Yang goes to work alone, he doesn't know if he can afford to support his family.

Tang Xuan's salary is not low, and she certainly doesn't want to be at home.

"What about Dad? Let Dad stay at home alone, don't you worry?" Ji Yang asked again.

Ji's mother's face suddenly collapsed, and she was very entangled. Ji's father had fallen several times in the first two years. If no one found out that something would happen, the old man would not take care of himself.

"Send it back for us to raise." Ji Fumin tightened his lips, his complexion was not very good, and now he also hates himself for being a burden.

"That…"

"Ji Yang, we are not discussing these issues now." Tang Xuan interrupted slightly when he wanted to speak, and looked at the two of them. "Uncle and aunt, Ji Yang has no other meaning. Both of us have to go to work, and he is also busy. The branch office will not be able to get away within a few years. The reason for saying this is that I want you to enjoy the good fortune, and I don’t want you to work any more."

Ji Mu's eyes were a little moist, and she looked at the son who looked at them and looked very promising.

The bottom of my heart is very weak, they are useless.

Father Ji was also a little moved, and his lips were still aggressive, "We are all used to it, living in high-rise buildings, we are very aggrieved."

"Yeah." Tang Xuan continued to affirm that Ji Yang still wanted to speak, but she was stopped by one of her eyes, and she said again, "Neither Ji Yang nor I considered the uncles and aunts' thoughts. It was our fault and we considered it too early. NS."

"It's my consideration, it's none of your business." Ji Yang interjected, and then changed the subject, "I don't want to talk about it, and it's still there."

In this way, the two of them had a better impression of Tang Xuan, they just looked at their son's temper for a while.

The house is still Tang Xuan's. Looking at their family's conditions, what if they have opinions and this doesn't happen?

In a small county, Ji Yang's age, children who were married early are about to get married, and he is still bachelor.

It can be described as an urgent death.

Ji Mu didn't dare to say more, so she could only persuade Tang Xuan to eat more and chat with each other about family affairs, kind and enthusiastic.

She was naturally satisfied with Tang Xuan's daughter-in-law, with a high degree of education, a decent job, and a house. These were all because they felt that they couldn't climb high, and even felt wronged by other girls.

The son has nothing but a car.

After a meal.

A family of four sat in the living room chatting. The living room was empty and there was no TV. After talking for an hour, the father and the mother of Ji were about to go to sleep.

Ji Yang and Tang Xuan naturally also went upstairs.

In the small county town, there were no entertainment facilities. It was only 8:30 in the evening. Looking out the window, every household closed the door, and some even turned off the lights and went to sleep.

Where are the colorful neon lights? Looked at the pitch black.

The tallest building may be no more than five or six floors. If you want to visit a supermarket, you have to go to the city. It may not be as big as a small supermarket in the city.

"Xuanxuan."

"Huh?" She turned her head when she heard the sound, but Ji Yang stood behind her, put his arm around her waist, and said something nervous, "I wonder if you will get used to it, do you find it too boring?"

She thought about it, smiled and said, "It's just a bit cold."

It was indeed relatively backward here, much behind her hometown, but she didn't dislike it at all.

"I don't have a heater yet, so I'm afraid you are freezing out. We will buy one tomorrow." Ji Yang comforted her.

"No, let's stay here for a little half a month." Tang Xuan hesitated, and hid in his arms.

"I have to use it next time. I buy one for my parents. The weather is getting colder and colder, I'm afraid they can't stand it." Ji Yang moved to the bedside holding her and sighed, "I said the house is going to be renovated. , But Dad had an accident later, so he didn’t have much income, so he didn’t decorate it because he thought about it, so he didn’t bring you back last year, for fear that you will dislike it."

Speaking of last year, Tang Xuan was still a little sad, since her father lied to her sister and her a sum of money, she had never been back.

She spent that year alone.

"Then you brought me back this year, are you afraid that I will dislike it?" She raised her head in his arms, slightly displeased.

"Isn’t the marriage proposal successful this year? The feelings are also deeper, if you enter the door and see such a broken house, it hasn’t been renovated yet, and the house is down to the point that there’s nothing in it. When I go back, I’ll say that I broke up, yes. Isn't it right?" Ji Yang bowed his head and kissed her, the corners of his mouth curled upwards, "I dare not take any risks."

Tang Xuan was amused by him, and said after a while, "Then I also dislike it now, there is nothing."

In fact, it doesn't matter in the hometown, just a little decoration, they don't live here, if they have RVs in the city, the pressure is not that great.

Hearing this, Ji Yang was startled, "Really?"

Tang Xuan nodded seriously, wanting to see how he reacted.

"It’s not nothing. Didn’t the branch open? The performance now looks good, and there will be dividends in the future. My salary has also increased. I can afford you. The house in my hometown is not important. You buy, you buy a big house." He explained anxiously, and promised, "Really, I will buy you if you want. I will buy you all the diamond rings. I will not wrong you."

He spoke very sincerely, holding her hand, even a little pitiful.

"So you think I have to pay attention to your potential, and then wait for you, right?" Tang Xuan said without waiting for him to answer, "Then you didn't have anything before."

Isn't she there yet?

Ji Yang reacted to what she meant, turned over and pressed the person on the bed, bowed his head and kissed lingeringly.

As he parted, Tang Xuan's lips were a little swollen, she watched him chuckle, and then looked at the ring on her right hand.

For him, who is still in debt, this is really expensive.

"Would you like to take a bath? The bathroom does not have a bath heater, it may be a bit cold, the hot water mother is ready, there is no water heater." When Ji Yang said, he was embarrassed, and always felt wronged.

Ji’s house is decorated with solar energy. How can there be the sun in winter?

Tang Xuan still didn't expect this, but she could accept it.

Ji Mu prepared the bucket and towel for her, and the boiled water was placed on the stove that had just been heated, boiling hot.

Ji Yang went down and picked it up, closed the doors and windows of the bathroom, and put the hot water in so that it would be warmer.

He helped her put her pajamas on the shelf, "I'm going to the bathroom below, don't wash it for too long, be careful of catching a cold."

"Yeah." She nodded.

When Ji Yang quit, he closed the door for her.

Tang Xuan looked at this small bathroom. Only this bathroom and Ji Yang's room were renovated on the second floor. It was the only tile on the floor, otherwise it would be soaked in water and moldy.

The heat is rising, it is not too cold, but at the end of the wash, it is shivering, putting on clothes quickly, and opening the door is even colder.

The bathroom was in the corner of the second floor, and it was still ten meters away from Ji Yang's room. She walked over and her teeth were shaking.

As there was no decoration, the entire balcony on the second floor hall was empty, and Tang Xuan wrinkled her entire face when a gust of wind blew.

Opening the door and seeing Ji Yang on the bed, he pounced on him.

The bed shook.

The bed was very warm. He was a natural heater. He burrowed into his neck as he held it. She was so cold that he could get goose bumps.

When the weather was cold, her body was cold when she touched the water.

He frowned his sword eyebrows tightly, wrapped her in a quilt, and reached out to hug her, "I haven't seen anyone like you. Don't catch a cold. It's not too cold today. It will be even colder in a few days."

Tang Xuan tried to hide in his arms.

"Next time I go to open a hotel to wash, the best hotel in the city has a bathroom heater and a heater, which will warm it up a little." He sighed, shook her hand and placed it on the palm of his hand to keep warm.

On the contrary, his body temperature would be higher in winter, with warm hands and feet, but she was very cold and even sneezed.

Tang Xuan shrank into the bed.

Ji Yang couldn't laugh or cry.

At this time, the door was knocked twice, and Ji Mu's voice came, "Is Xuanxuan asleep?"

"No." Tang Xuan got up from the bed with a "rub" and quickly responded, got out of bed and opened the door.

Ji Yang: "..."

"Auntie hasn't slept yet?" Tang Xuan opened the door, looked at Ji's mother at the door, and asked softly. She couldn't help shaking when the cool breeze hit again.

"I just forgot to give you fruit, thinking about you sleeping late, I will bring it to you." Ji Mu smiled back.

"Mom, you come in and say, open the door, she is cold to death." Ji Yang was helpless.

"Then close the door and go to bed early." Ji Mu put down the plate, which contained a few figs and persimmons.

"Auntie goes to bed early too."

"Okay." Ji Mu smiled back to her, "Close the door, it's really cold outside, don't take it cold."

"Um."

…

After Ji's mother left, Ji Yang waved to her, "Come on, isn't it cold?

Tang Xuan looked at the plate of fruits, "Should I have some?"

After all, Ji Mu specially brought it up. If you find out that she hasn't eaten it tomorrow, it's because of your own heart.

"You still eat so cold? Come up." Ji Yang took her to the bed, helped her put on her socks, and said calmly, "It's cold and cold at night, and I'm not afraid of eating out of my stomach? I want to eat it and soak it in hot water. Soak and eat, you want to eat?"

"I'm cold, I don't want to brush my teeth anymore." Tang Xuan said more and more quietly, and went out, she didn't want to.

"That's it?"

"But Auntie... Um..."

I didn't have a chance to say the following words, and I didn't dare to make too much noise. I was very ashamed.

The next day.

It was still dark, and the sound of chickens cried from outside the window.

Tang Xuan moved in the bed, her feet accidentally stared outside, so cold that she shrank back again and wrapped her around Ji Yang.

After a while, sparse voices came from downstairs.

Ji Mu is quick and diligent, and has already risen to cook pig food at this time, and she has begun to clean up the house.

It’s far from the city and I don’t buy breakfast. I just make it myself.

White light slowly rose from the horizon. Ji Mu brought breakfast to the table, went upstairs and knocked on the door, "Xuanxuan and Xiaoyang are up for breakfast."

Ji Yang slowly opened his eyes and responded, but Tang Xuan in his arms showed no response at all.

Ji Mu said another word. She moved her eyelashes, hugged him tightly with her hands, and hid in his neck again, as if she was awakened.

Seeing that he wanted to laugh, he said to the door, "I see, mom, go ahead."

Ji Mu's footsteps were getting farther and farther, he looked down at her, and leaned to her ear, "Are you going to get up for breakfast?"

Tang Xuan said in a daze after a while, "I want to sleep, can you eat it yourself?"

She still knew to comfort him when she fell asleep, rubbed his arms, and kissed him on the chin.

Ji Yang nodded, "Then I'm going to have breakfast with my parents, and you can sleep on it for a while."

After he finished speaking, he didn't move. Tang Xuan took a moment to open his eyes, and the sleepworms were scared away. They were so awake, "Are you going to get up for breakfast? I don't want to be alone on it."

If so, how does the father and mother of the season think of her?

"Get up, I'll take you to the city in a while." Ji Yang smiled and hugged her to sit up, leaned over and took the clothes next to her, rubbed her head intimately, and pecked her.

"Wait a minute, I'm not awake yet." She breathed a sigh of relief again, leaning against him, leaning lazily in his arms, and delivering all the weight of her whole body to him.

He's still there anyway, in no hurry.

Ji Yang helped her get dressed, looking at the limp, the corners of her mouth rose more and more, and she couldn't help squeezing her face, his eyes glowing with tenderness.
