Chapter 37
"I…"

"Ouch!"

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Qi suddenly let out an ouch, slapped his thigh fiercely, and looked at Xie Yunshu awkwardly.

"Look at my brain, I can't remember anything. You don't like to stay at other people's houses to eat. You are old and have a bad memory, so you have forgotten everything."

It is well known in Qingyun Village that Xie Yunshu is withdrawn and does not like to have contact with outsiders.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but mutter softly.

"How could I forget this..."

Xie Yunshu: ...

As soon as the words came to his lips, the topic changed:
"Well, Grandpa Qi is right."

The atmosphere was instantly awkward.

Qi Man's eyes rolled round, and he sat on the chair, holding the teapot, filling Xie Yunshu's teacup, and said softly:

"Grandpa, I was busy visiting my second aunt's house this afternoon and forgot to find the carpenter. After dinner later, my third uncle asked me to go to his house and give me the other half of the money. Otherwise, I will go find the carpenter tomorrow. Bar."

After all, she was very busy today and couldn't spare any time.

Xie Yunshu, who was silent on the side, suddenly said:

"I can do it. What does Comrade Qi want?"

Mr. Qi also nodded and agreed:

"Xiao Xie is right. Apart from Lao De, Xiao Xie is also a very skilled carpenter in our village. He made all the furniture in his house with his own hands."

Fortunately, I have seen it. The style is novel and beautiful.

It's just that Xie Yunshu has a withdrawn personality and is unwilling to take up carpentry work. As time goes by, he forgets that Xie Yunshu doesn't know how to do carpentry.

Qi Man's eyes were bright and she looked at Xie Yunshu with admiration:
"Really? Comrade, you are so awesome!"

When he met the little girl's clear eyes, which seemed to be twinkling like stars, Xie Yunshu's old face turned red, and the redness on the tips of his ears that had finally gone away turned red again.

"Ah."

Qi Man's eyes were filled with admiration, and she even moved her hands up and down, grabbing Xie Yunshu's hand with her two soft little hands.

"Then please, comrade, please help me build a few sets of furniture. I'll bring you the drawings and pay as much as you need."

The man's palms may have a lot of calluses from hunting all year round, and they are a little rough and uneven.

Xie Yunshu never expected that the little girl sitting next to him would suddenly hold his hand.

The woman's hands were smooth and tender, white and slender, and it was not an exaggeration to describe them as jade fingers. Qi Man's touch was like a stormy sea, constantly hitting his heart like a solid stone.

Perhaps his emotional anchor point was too low. He always looked at things indifferently, and nothing could stir up his emotions.

But after meeting Qi Man, the so-called emotional anchor point was too low, and the idea of ​​being single for a lifetime was shattered at this moment.

From the first time he met Qi Man last time, he had a delusion that he wanted to have a home with the woman in front of him, have two lovely children, and live an ordinary life.

Mr. Qi was also shocked by his granddaughter's actions. This girl always talks, so why did she take advantage of her!

[Host, physical contact was still quite taboo in the 80s. Please maintain your status as a good girl! 】

Under Grandpa's shocked gaze, Qi Man reluctantly let go of Xie Yunshu, who was in a dazed state, used her fingers to tuck the green hair on her forehead behind her ears, and looked at Xie Yunshu pretending to be shy:
"Comrade, I'm really sorry, I was a little excited, that's why..."

As he spoke, he pretended to be shy and blushed.

On the surface, he is shy, but in fact, he uses his mental power to communicate with the system.

"Sansan, aren't Manman's acting skills much better?" [The host is the best! 】

Qi Man blushed shyly.

"fine."

Xie Yunshu's tone was light and he withdrew his hand stiffly. His face was calm and calm, but his heart was in turmoil. There seemed to be the residual warmth of the little girl in his hand, which made him nostalgic and obsessed with her.

"Please wait a moment, I'll go to the room to get the drawings!" Qi Man stood up and walked towards the room.

Looking at his granddaughter's cheerful back, Mr. Qi took a sip of tea and said with a cheerful smile:
"Xiao Xie, don't take it to heart. Manman grew up abroad. I heard that foreign countries are much more open than ours, so there are some behaviors that exceed the rules. If you feel uncomfortable, I, as a grandfather, will tell you on behalf of Manman You apologize!"

Mr. Qi couldn't bear to blame his granddaughter, so he just wiped Manman's butt secretly. The most important thing was that Manman was happy.

All in all, there is absolutely nothing wrong with his sweet granddaughter!

Xie Yunshu pursed his lips, but his tone remained calm: "It's okay, Comrade Qi... very good!"

Seeing that Xie Yunshu didn't care, Mr. Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Man entered the room and asked for several design drawings of furniture close to this era from Sansan. Then he took a box of chocolates and a box of donkey-hide gelatin, walked out of the room, and handed the drawings to Xie Yunshu. The tone is sweet and soft:
"Comrade, do you think these sets of furniture can be made?"

Xie Yunshu took it, scanned it briefly, nodded and said, "It can be done!"

The workmanship is simple, but the patterns that need to be carved on it are a little complicated, and these can be done.

Qi Man's eyes lit up, she clapped her hands together, and looked at Xie Yunshu with a smile.

"There are three styles in total, one is for my room, one is for grandpa, and the other is for my brother."

After all, the cheap brother will be back in a few days, so I just gave him the shot once to avoid troublesome people a second time.

"it is good!"

Xie Yunshu agreed without hesitation.

Qi Man beamed with joy and stuffed the chocolate and donkey-hide gelatin in her hands into Xie Yunshu's arms.

"This is a thank you gift for you. The donkey-hide gelatin is for my aunt. It can replenish qi and blood and is good for people's health!"

The plot roughly describes Xie Yunshu's family. Xie's mother was in poor health when she was young. Coupled with the lack of materials in this era, her foundation has always been poor, she was skinny, and she could not live long.

Xie Yunshu looked at the exquisite packaging and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Qi Man's playful voice rang in his ears:
"If you don't accept it, comrade, I will find someone else to buy this set of furniture."

Xie Yunshu: ...

I had no choice but to put the two boxes of things into the bamboo basket.

Seeing Xie Yunshu accept the gift, Qi Man's little face showed a bright smile, he didn't like to owe favors.

Xie Yunshu took a look at the sky, stood up, took out another pheasant from the bamboo basket, and placed it on the table.

This time it was alive, but its feathers had been clipped.

"Pheasant supplement, given to Grandpa Qi."

Afraid of Qi Man's rejection, Xie Yunshu changed his story.

Mr. Qi glanced at his granddaughter and said with a smile: "Xiao Xie, the pheasant you sent this morning has not been cooked yet. This is another one. What will you and your mother eat? You should take this chicken back to you Make up for it, mom."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Yunshu was already out the door carrying the basket on his back.

Looking at the boy who didn't look back, Mr. Qi shook his head: "This kid has a cold face and a warm heart. He is such a good kid, but why is God so unfair?"

When Qi Man heard the news, she looked at Mr. Qi with bright eyes:
"Grandpa, does this comrade have any stories?"
