Chapter 27 I'll Carry You Down the Mountain



Liu Mei took a sip from the cup and realized it was a cup of sugar water. She smiled and joked to Bai Wei, "Now that you're married, your living conditions seem to have improved. You can even drink sugar water so freely. You're not the stingy person you used to be."

"It's okay. Come on. I can't just serve you plain water."

Xiang Baiwei was holding an enamel jar filled with plain water. People who had lived a second life were not that interested in sugary water.

After saying that, Xiang Baiwei felt that her words were not strong enough, so she added, "This candy was bought by Jiang Sui, who said that girls love to drink it. He bought it and put it in the cupboard, but he himself doesn't drink it much."

Jiang Sui did buy some candy and put it in the cupboard, and he also said the same thing to Xiang Baiwei.

But the saccharin used to treat Liu Mei today was not bought by him. The saccharin was given to Jiang Sui by his teacher friend when they got married.

Xiang Baiwei had some ulterior motives. While she was provoking Liu Mei, she did not want to treat her with the things that Jiang Sui bought for her.

Who told you to keep trying to embarrass me? If you didn't rush to offend me, I could just pretend that I didn't know about you and Jiang Sui, and then happily give up my position in three months to help you two.

But Liu Meixin was too mean. Xiang Baiwei didn't want to take advantage of her for nothing, and even less did she want to be used as a sucker by her.

Liu Mei held the enamel cup in her hand. The water in the cup, which was as sweet as honey, went into her mouth, but it was more bitter than Coptis chinensis.

These days, she has been doubting herself.

If I hadn't deliberately given Xiang Baiwei random advice and indirectly let her get her wish and marry Jiang Sui, then now, would it be me who has the hope of becoming Jiang Sui's wife? This kind of thing can't be thought about too much. The more I think about it, the more uncomfortable I feel, and the more I regret it.

This time Liu Mei didn't stay too long. She drank the water in the enamel jar and left.

Xiang Baiwei was surprised for a long time after she left, and she didn't understand why she came here in such a hurry.

It was almost evening, and Jiang Sui should be back by this time.

Liu Mei went to so much trouble to pick so many mushrooms herself, but she just drank a cup of sugar water and left. No matter how she thought about it, it didn't seem right.

Could she be planning something else?

Thinking about it, he shook his head towards Bai Wei and said, "If the enemy comes, we will stop him. If the water comes, we will block it with earth. Who cares what she wants to do!"

It has been a continuous rainy season recently. After every rain, a lot of mushrooms will pop up on the mountain at the north end of the village.

Those mushrooms are extremely delicious when used to cook dishes.

Xiang Baiwei and Jiang Sui both particularly like dishes made with mushrooms.

It happened that there were no classes on Sunday, so early in the morning, Jiang Sui and Xiang Baiwei had breakfast and went up the mountain to the north together.

The two of them decided to go mushroom picking together.

Villagers who had the same goal as them were also on their way to the mountain.

Xiang Baiwei walked beside Jiang Sui and was teased several times along the way that they looked like a couple.

Three hours later, Jiang Sui, who had picked a basket of mushrooms, turned around and asked Xiang Baiwei: "Do you want to continue picking? I see you are tired, and we can't eat much normally. Why don't we go back now?"

Xiang Baiwei looked at the basket full of mushrooms, nodded, and wanted to take the basket: "Then let's go home now, I'll carry the basket."

"No need," Jiang Sui dodged, "I can do it myself. The mountain road is a bit slippery after the rain. You should walk carefully. Do you want me to hold you?"

"Of course not. I've climbed countless mountain trails since I was a kid, okay? Why are you looking down on me like that?"

Xiang Baiwei flatly refused him. When he asked for the backpack, she didn't force it. She was happy to have some free time, just carrying two small hoes and walking leisurely down the mountain.

It is said that arrogance makes people careless.

Then she sprained her ankle because she stepped on loose rocks.

Seeing that Xiang Baiwei looked unhappy, Jiang Sui hurriedly ran to her and asked, "How are you?"

Xiang Baiwei gasped in pain: "This stone seems to be loose!"

"well!"

Jiang Sui sighed and said nothing to her. Instead, he handed her the mushrooms in the basket on his back and said, "Can you carry it? If not, I'll give half of these mushrooms to others."

Xiang Baiwei guessed what he wanted to do and shook her head to refuse: "I can carry you, but you carry me now, and then you hold me with your other hand, and I will walk slowly. Anyway, it's not far to home."

"It's already this late, and you're still so stubborn!" Jiang Sui was so angry that he took off the backpack from his body, put it on her back, and then half-knelt in front of her, "I'll carry you."

Xiang Baiwei looked at his lean figure and hesitated: "I'm carrying a large basket of mushrooms on my back. Are you sure you want to carry me?"

"Even if you carry a fat baby on your back, I can still carry you."

Jiang Sui pulled her hands without hesitation and said, "Come up, you'd better cooperate with me. If you struggle, be careful not to cause secondary damage to your feet."

"My ankle is not serious. Can't you just straighten it?" Xiang Baiwei complained secretly. She had also sprained her ankle in front of Jiang Sui in her previous life.

At that time, Jiang Sui's technique was very skillful and he did it just right for her on the spot.

Why do he choose to do such a difficult operation behind her back now?

Could it be that he doesn't know that trick now? Jiang Sui felt a little strange: "Hold my neck tightly, so that I can walk more steadily."

So just like that, Xiang Baiwei carried a large basket of mushrooms and lay on Jiang Sui's back, and was carried down the mountain by Jiang Sui in this strange posture.

At the foot of the mountain, Liu Mei, who was called by her companions to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms, stood on the side of the road and witnessed this scene.

Her heart was churning with pain, and she couldn't help but rush over, pretending to be concerned: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Sui kept walking forward: "It's nothing, Weiwei's foot was slightly injured, it's just a few steps, I'll carry her home."

"Can you carry it by yourself? Let me get a few people to help you." Liu Mei followed very enthusiastically and even asked for help.

Jiang Sui frowned in particular displeasure: "No need, it's just a small matter, we can handle it ourselves. Everyone is rushing to pick mushrooms and dry mountain products at this time, we can't delay their work. Liu Mei, you should also do your own thing, don't follow us anymore."

Since he said that, Liu Mei felt embarrassed to continue following him and could only stand on the side of the road and watch.

Xiang Baiwei, who was on Jiang Sui's back, looked back at her with mixed feelings.

And it was just this one glance that Liu Mei unilaterally interpreted as a provocation and a show-off.

"Xiang Baiwei is such a vixen. She must have deliberately sprained her ankle to trick Jiang Sui into carrying her. It's just like the last time she fell into the water to force Jiang Sui to marry her. She keeps using such a lousy trick!"

Xiang Baiwei had no such idea. She put her hands on Jiang Sui's shoulders, slightly putting some distance between them.

result…

Many people don’t understand why Liu Mei helped Weiwei frame Teacher Jiang, which led to Weiwei marrying Jiang Jiang directly?

It was very simple. She ignored the fact that Weiwei could actually swim. She thought Weiwei couldn't swim at the beginning. If Teacher Jiang didn't notice, she might have drowned herself. Who knew that the timing was just right and she helped her!   (End of this chapter)
