The young man walked along the edge of the field with his head down, bending down from time to time as if he was pulling out something.

A few children followed behind him, throwing mud at him.

He kept cursing something.

The young man seemed to feel nothing and just kept picking his own herbs.

Let the mud get all over the tattered clothes.

Xu Jiaojiao frowned and was about to speak to scare those little brats.

Then I saw a dog rushing up and barking at the children!

Hearing the fierce dog barking, the children were frightened and ran away in all directions.

In the field, the only one left was the young man holding a handful of grass.

The dog followed the boy, wagging its tail vigorously.

Xu Jiaojiao recognized the dog; it belonged to Blind Fa’s family.

The dog and the boy seemed to be very familiar with each other. The boy was pulling herbs in front, and the puppy was jumping happily behind.

If the boy wasn't covered in mud, this would have been a beautiful picture.

"That won't work."

Cheng Qingzhou was looking at the grass in front of him, hesitating whether to pull it out, when he heard a pleasant female voice coming from behind.

Turning around, Cheng Qingzhou was stunned.

The hand holding the grass suddenly felt a little uneasy.

"This grass cannot be used, it's poisonous." As she said this, Xu Jiaojiao pulled up another similar herb.

"Is this what you're looking for?"

Looking at the grass, something flashed in Cheng Qingzhou's eyes.

But in the end, he shook his head silently, turned around and left.

Xu Jiaojiao, still holding the grass in her hand, looked at his back with some surprise.

"Hey Jiaojiao, why are you talking to him?"

Suddenly, an aunt's voice came from the side, with a hint of accusation in her eyes.

As if she had done something outrageous.

Hearing this, Xu Jiaojiao was stunned.

Only then did I remember that these days, you can’t do whatever you want.

After a pause, she said, "Aunt Lin, I saw that he wanted to pull out the grass of our social significance, so I spoke up to stop him."

Liu Fanglin looked at her suspiciously, then said, "That's good. Don't be stupid and go with him."

Hearing this, Xu Jiaojiao felt a little helpless, but still nodded: "I know, thank you Aunt Lin."

Seeing that she listened to his advice, Liu Fanglin smiled with satisfaction and gave her a few more instructions.

By the time she finished speaking and left, the boy and the dog had disappeared.

With a sigh, Xu Jiaojiao also withdrew her gaze.

He went back to the tree, picked up his kettle, and gulped down a few gulps of water.

As soon as I put down the cup of water, I saw Qin Shuo coming under the tree at some point.

Maybe it was because the weather was too hot, the clothes soaked with sweat were now sticking to his body.

Beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down the jawline to the slender neck.

The man was also holding a kettle and drinking water.

Not daring to look any further, Xu Jiaojiao withdrew her gaze.

Just as I was about to go back to work in the fields, I heard Qin Shuo speak.

"It's all done."

Xu Jiaojiao:? !

Is this still a human being?

"How come it's so fast?" It only took a short time for her to finish her piece of land.

Hearing this, Qin Shuo felt helpless.

If I don't work faster, with her enthusiasm, my hands will definitely be blistered again.

"It's hot, you should go back early."

Hearing him say this, Xu Jiaojiao looked at the heat waves that seemed to be swaying in the fields and felt a little dizzy for a moment.

She didn't refuse and nodded: "Then I'll go back first."

After a pause, Xu Jiaojiao added, "Don't get tired."

Looking at the blush on the woman's face, Qin Shuo curled his fingers, not knowing what he was thinking of.

Resisting the urge to touch her, he murmured.

Xu Jiaojiao: ...

Somehow, Xu Jiaojiao had been feeling frightened since she saw him in the morning.

The man in front of him was like an awakened volcano, extremely dangerous!

Not daring to look any further, she picked up the backpack on the ground and left.

Only after she was out of his sight did Xu Jiaojiao breathe a sigh of relief.

As usual, the backpack contained the herb seeds that had not been planted yesterday.

But today she didn't plan to go to the mountain in the southeast.

He walked slowly towards the mountain where he had picked tea before.

It was still early, so she was in no hurry.

After the team leader talked to her yesterday, she actually no longer had to go to the fields.

But Xu Jiaojiao didn't want to be too different, so she insisted on working in the fields.

If she had known that all the places had been snatched away by Qin Shuo, she would not have come.

The mountain where tea is picked is to the west and is actually closer to the Qin family.

At this time, everyone in the team went to the cornfield, and there was no one in the rice field.

The road was quiet, with only the chirping of cicadas coming from the trees.

Halfway through the journey, Xu Jiaojiao suddenly thought of something, turned a corner and headed towards another fork in the road.

The fork leads to the upper reaches of the river.

There were weeds and bushes all along the way, and the visibility was not good.

As Xu Jiaojiao walked, she kept an eye on the bushes on both sides.

When he saw suitable herbs, he would pick them and put them in the basket behind him.

Just like what you do every day.

When one third of the herbs were filled in the backpack, Xu Jiaojiao finally saw a shack at the foot of the mountain.

The shack was once used to keep out wild boars, but now it looked dilapidated.

Xu Jiaojiao walked along the way and looked around carefully. She made sure that there was no one around before she walked towards the shack.

As soon as I approached, I heard a violent cough coming from inside.

It was as if he was going to cough out his heart and liver.

Xu Jiaojiao frowned.

Without hesitation, she walked straight in.

The shack was drafty on all sides, but the light inside was quite bright.

The shack was empty and there was nothing in it. Xu Jiaojiao saw the old man lying in the corner at a glance.

"Light boat?" The old man's voice was hoarse.

It was as if he was trying extremely hard to hold back his cough.

"I'm the team's doctor, and I've been asked to help you."

Xu Jiaojiao spoke directly.

Hearing this, the old man started coughing violently again.

But Xu Jiaojiao had already walked forward.

There is no time to delay her any longer.

If someone caught her, she wouldn't mind, but it would be bad for the Qin family.

Thinking of those lovely people in the Qin family, Xu Jiaojiao regretted her impulsiveness.

But this regret disappeared instantly when he met the old man's energetic eyes.

Looking at the young girl in front of him, Cheng Zhengde frowned.

Just as he was about to ask her to leave, he saw the little girl grab his wrist.

Before he could finish his words, Cheng Zhengde started coughing violently again.

Xu Jiaojiao, who was taking his pulse, finally relaxed her brows.

It is not a very serious disease, but if you delay treatment any further, it will become a chronic illness.

After explaining the condition to him, Xu Jiaojiao quickly said something else.

"I'll prescribe some medicine and ask your grandson to bring it back and boil some water for you to drink."

After saying that, without any delay, she stood up and walked outside.

Cheng Zhengde coughed so hard that he couldn't even utter a word. He just watched the girl come in hurriedly and then leave in a hurry.

Xu Jiaojiao, who had just gone out, ran into Gu Qingbai head-on!

When their eyes met, both of them felt a little awkward.
