Chapter 1374: Chapter 1249: There’s Only the First Ti for Crossdressing...
After wandering around the riverside beach for a long ti, the director and his two companions finally decided to co back. As soon as their sightseeing vehicle stopped at the Song Family’s place, they saw two people coming down from the back mountain.
The person in front was a young woman, looking in her early 20s, with fair skin and delicate features, a hint of a smile on her lips.
For so reason, it seed like her facial features were sowhat twisted as if she was holding back sothing.
This was the director’s habit, to look at a person’s appearance first!
Who knew, upon looking further, whoa!
Amazing! The recognition factor was just too high!
Out of the woods walked a similarly burly man, not as tall as the young man nad Chen Chi from the riverside, but estimated to be over 1.8 ters tall.
More importantly, this person was dark and strong, looking especially fierce; standing there with furrowed brows as if ready to fight.
Not to ntion his unconventionally loose attire, making him look quite extraordinary—wearing a black hoodie on top but a brightly colored Ming-style long skirt on the bottom. After walking onto the main road from the back mountain, he casually flung the skirt he was holding downwards, covering his shoes, and ca striding over.
The director’s body trembled a bit.
Unknowingly, two people had also crept up behind him, and everyone seed a bit nervous.
—Because just now, when the person flung down the skirt he was holding, it didn’t look like fabric, but more like a large copper hamr.
Not only the director’s trio, even the Song Family mbers who were standing at the door arranging luggage for the director appeared dumbfounded at this mont.
Chen Yuan subconsciously tensed his body and clenched his fists.
anwhile, Zhang Yanping, oblivious to everything, stood there looking at everyone in a daze, his thick eyebrows furrowing more tightly: "What’s wrong?"
Then his deep-set eyes scrutinized the three strange n, making the director even hold his breath.
After a while, Xin Jun, who was leaning over the third-floor balcony, suddenly laughed loudly:
"Zhang Yanping, you finally thought it through, and you’re taking this path?"
"What path?" Zhang Yanping asked in confusion.
Song Tan glanced at Doctor Xiaoguo beside her, who was stifling her laughter, thinking that her foolish cousin must have been set up by his girlfriend again, and sighed softly:
"Brother Yanping, they say there’s only the first ti for wearing won’s clothing and..."
Zhang Yanping was taken aback for a mont, then suddenly realized!
He looked down at the radiant long skirt he was wearing, then at his girlfriend’s black sweatpants beside him, and his face from ears to neck instantly flushed bright red.
His expression beca increasingly ferocious and terrifying:
"Oh you! Guo Dong, you deliberately didn’t remind !"
Doctor Xiaoguo, with a serious face, said, "When you walk, you could kick the hem of the skirt; do I need to remind you? I thought you just liked wearing it, and I didn’t bear to burst your bubble."
"But don’t worry," she said understandingly, "if you want to wear it, I’ll buy it for you in the future, I have money."
"I!" Zhang Yanping said, exasperated: "I just forgot!"
"I know, I know..." Guo Dong replied perfunctorily, "It’s your first ti wearing it, so you’re a bit shy; I get it... Don’t be so loud, see, you’ve scared the guests. When you tossed those mushrooms out of your skirt hem up on the mountain, I wasn’t this fierce, was I?"
Zhang Yanping felt even more aggrieved.
He and Guo Dong did pick quite a few mushrooms on the mountain today, and since they didn’t bring a basket, they bundled them in his skirt hem.
As they were going up and down the mountain with the mushrooms bundled, he accidentally dropped the hem in a hurry, and all the mushrooms went rolling across the grassy expanse.
The two of them strolled around the mountain all afternoon, and hadn’t brought back a single flower. Zhang Yanping was a bit deflated, thinking about his date all the way back.
He didn’t expect to forget about the skirt!
And now, his dark gaze locked on the three strangers in front of him, thinking that this ti he was thoroughly embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, the director suddenly let out a long breath and hurriedly ran into the courtyard: "I-I-I need to use the restroom..."
Just as Seventh Uncle ca out of the kitchen, he couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh: "See, I said it, drinking four cups of tea in a row, he couldn’t hold it in, could he?"
And Chen Yuan, glancing at the luggage on the sightseeing vehicle, then at Seventh Uncle, suddenly stepped forward and politely asked:
"Can I bring my own water bottle to get a cup of tea tomorrow?"
Facing both family and outsiders, Seventh Uncle had his own way of weighing things, and now there was a hint of a smile in his eyes and on his brows:
"Oh, you guys go up and down the mountain so diligently every day, a bit of tea is indeed essential—wait a bit, I’ll have Song Tan arrange a tea barrel for you guys later."
"There’s no good tea, just so tea scraps, old tea leaves or whatever, make do with it."
Chen Yuan thought of the taste of that tea he’d tried, it was definitely not sothing to just ’make do’ with! But recalling that he’d heard the tea leaves had been bought up, at 50,000 yuan per pound, he was a bit embarrassed—
"Maybe I should..."
"It’s alright," Seventh Master said, lifting the tea barrel to show him:
"See that? It’s all yellow leaf pieces and tea dust picked out before, along with so large-leaf tea picked later, just drink it if you’re given."
In fact, many of these were picked in autumn.
The finest bud tips, one person could pick at most 5 pounds of fresh tea in a day. But if they picked stems with two or three leaves, one person could pick several dozen pounds in a day.
When they stopped picking tea later, the last batch picked by the Song Family was like this, and there was plenty to drink daily.
Only then did Chen Yuan relax and couldn’t help but smile again.
Just then, Aunt Lianhua passed by and also chid in:
"Hey, you young folks, don’t always act all serious and brooding, smiling more looks much better. What hurdle can’t be passed, right?"
"I’ve noticed that people brighten up after staying here for a while."
Aunt Lianhua’s words were not unfounded. After all, the new security guards on the mountain, both young and slightly older, were all diligent and mindful, considering everything ahead for Song Tan.
They patrolled and trained daily, never slacking off themselves.
But still...
"Captain Chen, don’t always dwell on your issues. Look, my mother-in-law has been bedridden for so many years, and we’ve pulled through, haven’t we?"
"Good or bad, days are lived by people, so smile more, that’s when good fortune cos."
"Look at you, young man, you look so handso when you smile! Quite dashing."
Chen Yuan paused, instinctively glanced at his leg, then couldn’t help but break into a big smile.
Just then, Wu Lan, who was intrigued by Zhang Yanping’s big skirt, also entered the courtyard and caught sight of that smile, cheering up herself:
"Oh Chen Yuan! You look so good when you smile! Smile more often, since we have so many helpers at ho now, I’ll introduce you to a nice girl from ten miles and eight villages!"
This young man did have a bad leg, but he trained by running on the mountain every day without skipping a beat, stronger than those young n with strong limbs!
He was solid and responsible, there’s bound to be soone with a keen eye to spot such a good match, Wu Lan was confident.
