Long-distance buses these days have a strong diesel smell.
After Su Miantang got on the bus, he chose a seat by the window.
Jiang Yang sat aside, keeping a distance from outsiders, but was extremely caring towards his wife.
"If you feel sleepy, just take a nap on my shoulder. I'll call you when we get there."
"good."
Su Miantang was like a lazy kitten, hugging her man's strong arms tightly, nestling her petite body affectionately on his broad and warm shoulders, then closing her eyes slightly and began to doze off leisurely.
She completely ignored the looks and thoughts of those around her.
At this moment, she just wanted to enjoy this moment of peace and comfort and give her exhausted body and mind a good rest.
Catching up on sleep is the most important thing!
The ticket seller sitting next to them was a young girl. When she accidentally caught a glimpse of this warm and sweet scene, her eyes seemed to be suddenly burned by a scorching heat wave, and a shy blush instantly appeared on her cheeks.
She hurriedly averted her gaze, fearing that continuing to look would disturb the loving couple.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: What a well-matched newlywed couple!
The man is handsome, elegant and imposing.
That female comrade is as beautiful as a flower, with skin as delicate as a peeled egg...
This road was really bumpy and uneven, and it was completely different from the smooth, mirror-like roads of later generations.
Su Miantang, sitting in the carriage, frowned slightly, but she quickly closed her eyes and entered a state of half-sleep.
At this moment, she was concentrating on carefully sorting out various information about her original family and every detail of her interactions with her family in her mind.
These memories kept playing in front of her eyes like a movie. She had to remember every detail and not make any mistakes when she met them.
At the same time, Jiang Yang was also busy.
He moved his body carefully, trying to make his broad and strong shoulders softer, and kept adjusting his sitting position, just to make his wife leaning on him more comfortably.
However, whenever he noticed other men looking at him with malicious and covetous eyes, Jiang Yang's eyes, which were originally as gentle as water, would instantly become as cold as ice, flashing with a cold light like a cold star.
Then, he glared back mercilessly, as if to warn those who harbored evil intentions—
What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I’ll dig out your eyes!
Although the passengers nearby also thought that the beauty was indeed very pretty and charming, they all knew in their hearts that protecting their own eyes was more important than admiring the beauty.
So they secretly warned themselves not to continue watching, otherwise if they accidentally annoyed the man, they would be in big trouble!
At this moment, several elderly passengers happened to witness this scene. They couldn't help but smile playfully, shaking their heads slightly and muttering to themselves:
"Whose kid is this? He's so fierce and rude, like a ferocious little wolf cub..."
The words were full of curiosity and teasing towards the young man, without any other malice.
It's obvious that they are a newlywed couple, very sweet and loving.
Indecent?
Oh no, as long as they are not having an affair and are a serious couple, they can show their love however they want.
An hour later, after passing the commune, brigade, production team, and town, the long-distance bus finally stopped at the brigade station near Xiahe Village.
Jiang Yang came here once when he was picking up his bride, and he remembered the route by heart.
When the car was about to arrive at the station, he gently woke up his wife.
Su Miantang was originally thinking about something with her eyes squinted, but later, she felt very comfortable resting her head on her man's shoulder, and then she really squinted.
Now awakened and realizing that the bus had arrived, she quickly sat up straight and followed her man to pack up and get off the bus.
.....
Xiahe Village——
At the entrance of the village, there is a crystal clear stream flowing slowly. The gurgling sound of the stream is like a beautiful symphony.
The sunlight shines on the water, making it sparkle and look beautiful.
According to her memory, Su Miantang walked lightly on the cobblestone road, leading the way for her husband with a smile.
Along the banks of the stream, you can see many hardworking village women and young girls busy at work.
They were either squatting or standing, holding wooden sticks in their hands, beating the clothes soaked in water hard, splashing water.
These village women and girls chatted and laughed while they worked, and their laughter echoed throughout the village.
At this moment, a gossipy woman noticed Su Miantang and scanned her body with a critical smile:
"Hey, isn't this the little girl from the Su family?
Why didn’t you bring home a piece of meat when you went back to your parents’ home today?
Did your man empty his family’s savings to marry you?
Or do they simply not want to take you seriously?"
"Sixth Aunt, what truth are you telling? Aren't you afraid that Aunt Ge will come to your house and tear your mouth apart?"
"What am I afraid of? The Ge guy sold his daughter and asked for fifty yuan as a betrothal gift from his son-in-law's family, and he doesn't allow anyone to talk about it?
I say to this young man, your family has enough money to marry three virgin girls with fifty dollars, why are you so stupid as to marry a girl from the Su family?
The woman named Aunt Six was extremely provocative, saying bad things about the Su family in every word and action.
Perhaps if someone else was instigated, they would have a grudge against Su Miantang, their new wife, but Jiang Yang would not.
"Because my wife deserves it, I will satisfy her as long as she wants it."
The man's deep and powerful voice rang out, and he firmly chose to defend his wife, which made people look at him a few more times...
These words were like a loud slap in the face of the woman who was stirring up trouble.
Many young wives and girls couldn't help but steal a glance at Su Miantang's new husband.
"Sixth Aunt, your clothes were washed away by the water."
Su Miantang pointed at the flowered shorts that were washed away by the river. His expression, which was neither soft nor painful, made people feel inexplicably cold.
Sixth Aunt slapped her thigh, oh no, her panties were wet!
How could she still have the face to live if this was picked up by an outsider?
He immediately stopped looking for trouble, quickly found a bamboo pole, and asked people to help stop it.
"Ayang, I'll take you home."
"Um."
After fending off a wave of malicious intent, the couple leisurely left the stream.
Suddenly, Jiang Yang keenly sensed a malicious gaze falling on him.
Malice.
This is his second time in Xiahe Village. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have offended anyone, right?
There's only one possibility...
