Pastoral Daily Life

Chapter 86

Xiao Feng and Wang Shuxiu got together thanks to the matchmaker called “Heavy Rain”.

As the saying goes, heavy rain keeps customers away, but Xiao Feng never thought he would be caught in a rainstorm at Xiaohuas Home Cooking Restaurant. At the beginning of the rain, Xiao Feng hesitated for a few seconds and didnt leave. For one thing, he wanted to stay with Wang Shuxiu for a while longer, and for another, he didnt take the heavy rain to heart, thinking that it would stop soon. Who knew that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, with no tendency to stop, and that the water on the road rose above his calves, making it impossible to leave. Not to mention Xiao Feng himself, Wang Shuxiu also did not feel comfortable with him leaving, especially since Xiao Feng also intended to return to the vegetable greenhouse. It was dark and rainy and the road wasnt easy to travel, so Wang Shuxiu stopped him and Xiao Feng naturally stayed.

Speaking of Xiao Feng, Wang Shuxiu always realised that it was the existence of the card and chess parlour that made her feel uncomfortable. Later, Xiao Feng closed the card and chess parlour, plus Lin Mei always whispered in her ear that she should find a man, so Wang Shuxius mind became more accommodating. Although she didnt want to admit that a woman couldnt live without a man, Lin Mei was right, she was still young and would have no problem living to her 60s or 70s, taking into account her current physical condition. If she had to be alone for the next 20 or 30 years, it would be a bit bleak to think about. If people who didnt know the truth thought that she was keeping herself for Lu Yishui, she would die of vomiting blood!

Wang Shuxiu figured it out for herself, but she was still a little uncomfortable with Xiao Feng. Lin Mei didnt think too much of it and enthusiastically decided to help Wang Shuxiu meet someone else. To be honest, in Lin Meis opinion, Wang Shuxius conditions lacked a little. Of course, if you said she was in poor condition, Wang Shuxius face was there and no one who saw her could be unhappy. But if you said she was well off, Wang Shuxiu was old, divorced and with a child in tow, and was unemployed, running her own small restaurant, which was no match for someone who had a regular, stable job.

Lin Mei was a bit anxious for Wang Shuxiu, but Wang Shuxiu didnt care. On the contrary, when Xiao Feng heard that Lin Mei was helping introduce Wang Shuxiu to someone, he ran to the small restaurant three times a day. He didnt say anything, but just followed Wang Shuxiu unhurriedly and helped out when he saw any work. Sometimes when there were more customers, or when there were people he knew, Xiao Feng was not shy about coming out to greet them, and people who didnt know thought that Xiao Feng owned the restaurant.

After a while, Lin Mei could see that Brother Feng was interested and that Wang Shuxiu wasnt completely unresponsive. The two of them looked good, but they were just short of a little push. Lin Mei pondered that Wang Shuxius heart was probably not settled and Xiao Feng also saw it, so he simply didnt say anything. He would go to take care of his own affairs every day and when he was done, he would come to the small restaurant. He washed dishes, cleaned up, and occasionally greeted customers, proving by his actions that he was connected to the Xiaohuas owner.

The two of them got along so uneventfully until this heavy rain gave them an opportunity for a breakthrough. Wang Shuxiu was accustomed to being alone at all times. And now there was someone with her when the lightning was flashing, helping to close the windows, lock the doors and check if the house was leaking, Wang Shuxius heart suddenly settled down and she recognised Xiao Feng from the bottom of her heart.

While she was making rapid progress, Lu Lingxi, who was far away in Lingshui Village, didnt know that he had a new father and was happily squatting in front of Dahei and teasing him. One dog and one man were “meeting after a long goodbye” in an intimate manner, completely ignoring Yan Yue next to them. It was a rare occasion for Yan Yue not to be sour. In fact, he missed Dahei a little bit after not seeing him for a few days. Seeing that Lu Lingxis thoughts were all on Dahei, Yan Yue smiled indulgently, opened the trunk, took out the tools from it and began to pack up the things he brought this time.
