“Look at you, your face is covered in sweat. Wipe it off!”
Qin Xi took out a handkerchief and stood on her tiptoes to wipe Han Shi’s sweat.
Han Shi did not expect her to take the initiative. It had to be known that Qin Xi was a very shy person. When it was just the two of them, she would be extremely shy as long as he was close to her, not to mention that there were so many people watching.
Moreover, he had been very sensitive since he was young and could sense the change that took place in Qin Xi. Although he didn’t know what happened, Han Shi wouldn’t be so stupid as to waste such an unexpected treatment.
He quickly bent his knees to make it easier for Qin Xi. When she was about to finish wiping the sweat, he staggered and wrapped his arms around Qin Xi’s slender waist. Qin Xi subconsciously tried to help him up. Her heart tightened and she quickly asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Han Shi pointed at his leg pitifully and said, “My leg is a little numb!”
Qin Xi immediately injected a trace of true Qi into his body. “What about now?”
Han Shi walked around and said in surprise, “Huh? The numbness is gone! Wifey, you’re really amazing. With just a touch, you made it go away.”
Qin Xi’s eyelids twitched and she quickly covered his mouth. She looked around and saw that many people were looking over with relish. She immediately blushed and her heart started racing. She glared at Han Shi and threatened in a low voice, “Behave normally, or you can forget about sleeping on my bed tonight!”
Han Shi blinked his innocent eyes and shook his head like a rattle-drum. His mouth, which was covered, made m.u.f.fled sounds of protest.
Seeing that the couple was on good terms, the villagers who were working around them teased, “Oh, Stone, are you being disciplined by your wife?”
Everyone burst out laughing.
Han Dazhu laughed the most heartily. He had always known that his grandson was not worthy of Xi. Not to mention Xi’s mysterious skills, just the fact that she was a normal person was enough to make the Han family owe her.
Moreover, in just half a month, the Han family had undergone a tremendous change. His leg had recovered, so had Luo Xiujuan’s waist injury. Even Han Shi’s illness had been alleviated. Although he still looked like a fool, judging from the way he had been working hard these past few days, he was obviously much better.
This was all thanks to Xi. He believed that as long as Xi was around, their family would be better.
Previously, he had been worried that Xi would despise Stone for being stupid. Now, looking at how loving they were, he felt that he was just overthinking.
Qin Xi was extremely embarra.s.sed. She turned around and poured a large pot of cold tea for Han Dazhu. “Grandpa, take a rest and drink some cold tea.”
“Alright, alright. I happen to be thirsty.” Han Dazhu took it with a smile and drank it under the shade of the tree.
The other villagers also brought water for their families. When they were resting, they sat down and chatted.
The day pa.s.sed very quickly. Seeing that it was getting late, Qin Xi clapped her hands to attract everyone’s attention.
“Everyone, I’m sure you know that I’ve bought this mountain and plan to plant fruit trees here. A batch of mature fruit trees will arrive in two days. I’m thinking that if anyone is willing to help plant them, I’ll pay 10 yuan per person for every 30 trees they plant. However, I’ll make it clear in advance that these are mature fruit trees. One person definitely won’t be able to carry it, so we need to split into groups of ten. As long as the group plants 30 trees, each person will get 10 yuan.”
Everyone was in an uproar!
