Xiang Baiwei turned her back to Jiang Sui and did not dare to look back. She was afraid that she could not control the expression on her face.
During this period, she discovered that Jiang Sui was a very perceptive person and could see through anything that was wrong.
The last time I sprained my ankle, I managed to get over it with great difficulty.
She didn't dare show any abnormality again.
Seeing that she had her back to him, Jiang Sui did not move forward and stood two meters away from her: "I have something to tell you. Is it convenient for you to listen now?"
Xiang Baiwei sorted out her complicated emotions and turned to look at Jiang Sui: "What's the matter? Tell me, I'll listen."
"It's like this. The commune sent someone to tell me that the autumn harvest was coming soon, so they asked me to paint a few paintings on the theme of the harvest and send them to the city. I told the village chief, who is also my father-in-law, that I couldn't finish the paintings by myself, and I had to find a few educated young people who grew up in Xiangjia Village to complete the paintings with me."
Jiang Sui walked closer while speaking.
"You mean you want me to help you?" Xiang Baiwei saw what he meant from his face. "But I can't draw. You know, in a small place like this, it's good to have someone who can draw."
Jiang Sui smiled: "It's okay, your handwriting is very good now, you can help me draw the inscription, and I don't know much about the autumn harvest, so I need your help."
After that, Jiang Sui added: "Do you like painting? If you like, can I teach you how to paint in the future?"
So gentle!
Just as Chi Kunli said, Jiang Sui is really a very good man now.
It's a pity that I don't want to travel with him in this life.
Therefore, other intimate behaviors are unnecessary.
Moreover, she needed to keep some distance from him, otherwise, Xiang Baiwei was worried that she would lose control again and get deeply involved.
"If you don't like it, then no need. There are many educated young people in the village. Chi Kunli is one of them. You can go find them."
The implication of rejecting Bai Wei was obvious.
Jiang Sui felt a sense of frustration in his heart. It was like this again. No matter how hard he tried, Xiang Baiwei always pushed him away.
When will she be willing to accept herself?
"I have already submitted the list, and you are on it," Jiang Sui made up his mind and made the decision on his own regardless of Xiang Baiwei's refusal. "And my father-in-law also recommended you. If I don't submit your name, I'm afraid he will blame me for it."
To the old roots?
Why is he meddling in this? Xiang Baiwei was extremely upset and stood up and walked out: "I will go and talk to my father in person and ask him to take my name off the list. There is a lot of work to do in the fields. The autumn harvest is coming soon. How can I have the time to accompany you to paint? Are you still asking about the land at home?"
"It's useless to look for it," Jiang Sui called out to Xiang Baiwei who had already walked into the yard, "The list has been submitted. If you want to change it, it will be very troublesome."
In fact, what Jiang Sui said was all lies to Bai Wei. There was no such so-called list at all.
If Xiang Baiwei were really allowed to go find the village chief Xiang Laogen, this plan would most likely fail.
Finally, under Jiang Sui's obstruction, Xiang Baiwei was forced to join the painting team.
Jiang Sui was secretly delighted and tried his best to get closer to Xiang Baiwei.
At least we have to make her give up the idea of divorce.
He had paid such a huge price to get this chance to start over, so he must cherish it.
As the autumn harvest was approaching, Jiang Sui took Xiang Baiwei to visit several villages in the east and west to collect materials.
Now she was accompanied by a man who looked quite like him, and when they walked in the village, they attracted even more attention.
At first, Xiang Baiwei felt a little uncomfortable.
After being talked about for so long, she no longer thought it was a big deal, and even complained to Jiang Sui: "Thanks to you, people talk about me wherever I go. If this continues, it won't be long before my face becomes several layers thicker."
Jiang Sui, who was busy sketching, couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "I won't take the blame for this. When we pass by the supply and marketing cooperative, I'll buy you a small, portable mirror. You can look in the mirror and know who is the one who is stealing the show."
Jiang Sui was praising Xiang Baiwei for her beauty.
Most people would be very happy when being praised for their beauty, and Xiang Baiwei is no exception.
During this period, Xiang Baiwei temporarily gave up the hatred and obsession of her previous life and only regarded Jiang Sui as an ordinary friend.
After all, the two of them stay together for almost twenty-four hours a day, and if the rejection is too obvious, it will be discovered by others who are collecting information together.
Rumors in the village are spreading rapidly. As the daughter of the village chief, Xiang Baiwei dare not bring discredit to the Xiang family.
We must not let Liu Mei take the opportunity to do anything bad again.
It was precisely because of this that Xiang Baiwei felt that she and Jiang Sui could get along very well.
But she didn't notice that Jiang Sui had actually been accommodating her subtly.
Jiang Sui, relying on his limited understanding of Xiang Baiwei, tried to please her cautiously and calmly.
Just to make Xiang Baiwei not reject herself.
That evening, Jiang Sui and his companions finished collecting materials and were on their way back to Xiangjia Village.
Three or five young people were laughing and playing. Chi Kunli was watching from the side. She inexplicably felt that the distance between Jiang Sui and Xiang Baiwei seemed a little too far, so she pretended not to do it on purpose and pushed Xiang Baiwei towards Jiang Sui.
Jiang Sui immediately opened his arms and hugged Xiang Baiwei: "Be careful, there are stones on the ground."
Xiang Baiwei stood firm, glared at Chi Kunli, and warned her with gritted teeth: "Can't you just walk your own way steadily?"
"I didn't mean it. Why are you in such a hurry?" Chi Kunli still felt that the distance between them was too far, so she deliberately moved closer and pushed Xiang Baiwei towards Jiang Sui.
Xiang Baiwei made Chi Kunli very angry, but she couldn't lose her temper because if she did, outsiders would notice that something was wrong.
So she could only walk side by side with Jiang Sui for the rest of the journey.
Chi Kunli, who was watching from behind, was finally satisfied with the distance between them.
After returning home, Xiang Baiwei was so exhausted that she sat in the chair and didn't want to move.
Jiang Sui looked at her lazy appearance, smiled helplessly, shook his head, rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen to cook.
Xiang Baiwei sat for a while, then got up and went to the kitchen.
She didn't have the nerve to just sit there and wait for the meal to be ready.
Jiang Sui in the kitchen saw her coming and naturally started to discuss with her: "Are you cooking or boiling?"
