Chapter 474: Hammer and Lotus Leave
Chapter 474: Hammer and Lotus Leave
Wang Po’s mind is all on the pile of New Year’s goods!
This year is such a great year. I have such a beautiful daughter, and Tiechui also bought her a lot of New Year's goods!
At first, Aunt Wang stopped Tiechui and refused to let him buy it no matter what, but he was a kind-hearted person and was kind to others from the bottom of his heart!
So, I bought a lot of pork, rice and noodles, and even bought several kinds of melon seeds that Aunt Wang loved to eat with tea!
Lianhua also advised her: "Mom, this is at least a token of brother Tiechui's kindness, please accept it!"
Wang Po had no choice but to accept it embarrassedly.
At this moment, she picked up a piece of fine dark blue silk cloth and compared it with Old Man Wang. She looked him up and down, then smiled with satisfaction and said:
"That's right. I'll use this material to make you a quilted gown, perfect for the New Year!"
Old man Wang thought his wife was just interested in the novelty and would soon put down the pile of things. However, she became addicted and placed all the New Year's goods on the broken table, looking very excited.
Old man Wang got anxious and shouted at the top of his lungs:
“Do you have cotton in your ears?
Didn't you hear me say that there were only a few people here looking for lotus flowers during the day? Why are you fiddling with these things now?"
Aunt Wang finally came to her senses and dropped the sunflower seeds in her hand to the ground.
"Her father, are you telling the truth?
What should I do? Chinese New Year is almost here, and this is the first time we're celebrating it as a family of three!
"Hey……"
Old Man Wang pointed at Mrs. Wang, sighed, and said after a long while:
"If it's destined to happen, it will happen eventually. If it's not destined to happen, don't force it! If it's our fate, I won't force it!"
Lianhua had already heard Old Man Wang telling her to go hide outside, but she had been standing stupidly in front of the table, feeling as if someone had dug out her heart.
Hearing Old Man Wang's dejected words, she hurried over, grabbed the old man's arm, and cried:
"Dad, just do as you said and let me go to my aunt's house!
When the storm has passed, I will come back! I will not leave, I will not leave you!"
Aunt Wang hugged her in her arms, tears streaming down her cheeks, wetting the new flowery cotton-padded jacket that Auntie Fat had made for Lotus. They had gone to buy New Year's goods happily, but who would have thought it would turn out like this!
Aunt Wang touched Lianhua's hair, which had a faint scent of osmanthus. It was the hair oil she had just bought for Lianhua that morning!
She sobbed and cried:
"My dear, how can I bear to let you spend the New Year with someone else? This is like asking for my life!"
Old Man Wang's heart softened, but he still suppressed his reluctance and scolded Aunt Wang:
"That's just a woman's opinion! It's really just a woman's opinion! He's just hiding for a few days, and we'll go get him back later! If he gets kidnapped by those people, it will be too late for you to regret it!"
Wang Po then wiped her tears and told Lianhua:
"Good boy, hurry up and pack your clothes! I'll go call Tiechui and have him take you away right away!"
Lianhua nodded with tears in her eyes. Although she had something to give up, she still obediently packed her clothes and waited for Tiechui to come and take her away.
The night is as dark as ink. There is no moon tonight, only scattered stars in the sky emitting faint light, like tiny gems inlaid in the boundless night.
Aunt Wang stood at the door, looking around with an uneasy look on her face, but she didn't dare to look into Lianhua's eyes!
She was afraid that she would not be able to resist keeping the lotus!
She repeatedly warned Tiechui, "Be careful! It's too late, you can just stay there for the night. Come back tomorrow morning by yourself. Don't let anything happen to you!"
Tiechui nodded, his eyes falling on the lotus beside him. The lotus stood there quietly, like a small flower drifting in the wind.
They walked along the dark path, all around them was silent, with only the sound of their footsteps echoing in the air.
At first, neither of them spoke. Lotus walked silently, staring at the stars in the sky from time to time.
She is just like these stars, small and lonely - she has forgotten her past, does not know her own life experience, and now, she cannot even be with her parents during the New Year.
Thinking of this, Lianhua's tears slid down like pearls from a broken string.
She tried hard not to cry out loud, but the tears would not stop.
Tiechui was an honest man and he did not notice the change in Lianhua until he heard Lianhua sniffling non-stop and realized that his sister was crying.
Tiechui hurriedly stopped, reached out and grabbed Lianhua's hand, and asked anxiously: "Sister, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Don't scare me!"
Lotus did not speak. After a long while, she slowly said:
"Brother Tiechui, will you despise me one day? I have nothing, and my father and mother are so poor..."
Tiechui scratched her nose. Just now, he thought Lianhua had been wronged! Hearing her say that, he immediately felt relieved and reached out to hug her in his arms.
The girl's unique fragrance made Tiechui unable to stop.
He pointed to the bright light ahead and told Lianhua, "Sister, it's so late, let's go to the hotel and spend the night, and then set off tomorrow morning!
Don't worry, your aunt's house is very close!"
Lotus agreed for some unknown reason!
When they arrived at the shabby hotel, the owner told them apologetically that there was only one small guest room left.
Lotus, however, had no complaints and obediently followed Tiechui into the room. Although the room was simple, it was clean and tidy, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
Tiechui carefully lit the red candle. The flame flickered and large drops of candle oil slid down the candle body.
The dim candlelight reflected on Lotus's shy face, giving it a faint blush.
The two sat face to face, so close to each other that they could feel each other's breath.
Tiechui placed his hands on Lianhua's shoulders, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.
It was not known how long it had been, but Tiechui finally couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and then slowly unbuttoned the first button on his lotus jacket.
As the buttons were undone, the peach-red bellyband with twin flowers became faintly visible, contrasting with Lotus's fair skin, making her skin look whiter than snow and rosy.
Her shoulders trembled slightly, and although it wasn't the first time, she was still a little nervous.
The lotus was as shy as a little daisy. She closed her eyes and quietly responded to the hammer.
Tiechui's lips gently fell on hers, with a hint of hot temperature. This kiss seemed to ignite the fire in the hearts of the two, igniting their passion instantly.
Lotus's delicate moan echoed in the room, and a gorgeous rose bloomed in Tiechui's body!
I don’t know how long it took, but Lotus curled up in Tiechui’s arms like a gentle cat, and there seemed to be a low sound of wind outside praising them.
Tiechui sighed softly, "Sister, I will never let you down in this life! I will definitely marry you in a grand ceremony!"
