Chapter 81 Winning Hearts and Minds
Zhou Xiye turned to look at Zhou Xiaochuan: "I've already made myself clear to you, so don't talk nonsense again."
Zhou Xiaochuan still couldn't understand: "Brother, I heard from Mom that Sister Xiaoxiao got divorced. She's a really nice person. Aren't you going to consider her?"
Zhou Xiye wanted to kick him: "If you think it's good, you can marry her! I'll tell you again, your sister-in-law is Jiang Zhizhi! Go out and find Zhang Zhao to get you something to eat."
Seeing that Zhou Xiye was really about to lose his temper, Zhou Xiaochuan held back and went out.
He was indignant; how could he have been wrong!
Jiang Zhizhi is not a good person at all.
It must be Jiang Zhizhi who bewitched my brother!
...
Jiang Zhizhi spent two days writing a training plan that would later become more advanced, using paper and pens that Zhou Xiye had previously provided.
She finished writing it and planned to go to Zhou Xiye first thing tomorrow morning, bring the gift, and confess. He wouldn't be so angry that he would ignore her.
Just thinking about it makes me excited and happy.
Just as I finished putting my things away in the drawer, Liang Dazhuang and Liang Xiaowu came running up and leaned on the windowsill, calling out, "Sister Xiaojiang, Sister Xiaojiang, come out quickly!"
Jiang Zhizhi opened the door and went out, seeing the two excited people, and asked in surprise, "What's going on with you two?"
Liang Dazhuang grinned and said, "Sister, let's go to the mountains to pick wild fruits and catch pheasants."
Jiang Zhizhi asked in confusion, "We can't go into the mountains, how could you forget?"
Liang Xiaowu explained from the side, "Sister, it's not this mountain, it's Wangjialiang. There are people in the mountains here. I heard that all the pheasants here have gone to their side. Let's hurry up and catch them."
Jiang Zhizhi was somewhat interested in going hunting in the mountains: "Wait for me to come down."
I went back to get my coat, and after thinking about it, I took out the written proposal and put it in my pocket.
A lock on a door can only keep out honest people, not scoundrels.
Liang Dazhuang somehow got hold of a bicycle. Although it was a bit worn out, it was still much better than walking.
Liang Xiaowu sat sideways on the crossbar, while Liang Dazhuang called out to Jiang Zhizhi to sit behind him: "Sister, I'll ride slower, can you jump on?"
Jiang Zhizhi laughed: "No problem, let's go!"
Liang Dazhuang pushed off with his foot and started moving forward. Jiang Zhizhi lightly jumped on and asked, "Dazhuang, is the bike sturdy? Can it carry the three of us?"
Liang Dazhuang pedaled quickly: "Sister, don't worry, I'm very skilled."
We walked eastward along the mountain ridge.
Liang Dazhuang and Liang Xiaowu were quite excited. As they rode, Liang Xiaowu held onto the handlebars while Liang Dazhuang pedaled, practically trying to make the chain spark.
Jiang Zhizhi felt like she was about to fall apart, and cried out, both laughing and crying, "Slow down, slow down..."
The two ignored him completely and continued riding their bikes, shouting excitedly as they went.
The sound echoed in the empty valley.
Zhang Zhao happened to see it through the binoculars and muttered in puzzlement, "Technician Xiao Jiang?"
Zhou Xiye, who was about to leave the observation tower, turned back and reached out his hand: "Give it to me."
Zhang Zhao tactfully handed the binoculars to Zhou Xiye and pointed in a direction: "Eight o'clock."
Zhou Xiye ignored him, picked up his binoculars and looked towards the eight o'clock direction. He could clearly see three people on a bicycle on the golden mountain ridge.
Jiang Zhizhi's red coat was even more eye-catching.
Although no sound could be heard, their actions and expressions revealed that they were very happy.
Especially Jiang Zhizhi, who looked up and smiled, lively and carefree, like the wind in the mountains.
Zhou Xiye thought about how Jiang Zhizhi always acted in front of him – polite, courteous, and a little reserved. His expression darkened, and he turned around to hand the binoculars to Zhang Zhao before leaving the observation post without a word.
Zhang Zhao looked back and then at Zhou Xiye's back. It was obvious that his boss was in a low mood.
What's going on?
The boss's mood has been fluctuating a bit lately.
...
Wangjialiang is quite a distance from Qingquan Village, requiring more than half an hour to cycle there.
Upon arriving at the destination, Liang Dazhuang lifted his shirt to wipe his sweat and prepared to carry his bicycle into the mountains.
Jiang Zhizhi asked in surprise, "Carry it into the mountains?"
Liang Dazhuang nodded: "If I lose it, my dad will definitely skin me alive. It's okay, I'm strong."
Jiang Zhizhi thought about it and agreed; bicycles are valuable items.
Because they were carrying bicycles, the three of them moved much slower after entering the mountains, and they had to find some wide and easy-to-walk paths. They did find quite a few wild fruits.
Jiang Zhizhi couldn't remember the names either, but she watched Liang Xiaowu and the others eat and ate along with them.
Unknowingly, we entered the depths of the mountains and forests, where the temperature had dropped considerably.
Just as Jiang Zhizhi was feeling relieved that she had taken the last woolen coat with her when she left, she heard rustling sounds not far ahead.
My first thought was that there might be wild animals?
Liang Xiaowu quickly hid behind Jiang Zhizhi and called out in a low voice to Liang Dazhuang, who was further behind, "Brother Dazhuang, there's a sound ahead, is there a bear?"
Liang Dazhuang immediately put down his bicycle and rode over: "Keep your voice down, or we'll be discovered if there's a bear."
As he spoke, he cautiously looked around.
Jiang Zhizhi listened intently and said, "Don't worry, it's not the sound of a bear."
Liang Dazhuang and she walked ahead, while Liang Xiaowu followed cautiously behind them. After walking a few meters ahead, they saw Sun Xiaoyue and Jiang Donghua hurriedly putting on their clothes in the ravine ahead.
While hurriedly buttoning her clothes, Sun Xiaoyue said, "Why would anyone else come here?"
Jiang Donghua was also quickly pulling up his pants: "How should I know? Could it be some kind of wild animal?"
Sun Xiaoyue shook her head: "I think I heard someone talking. Donghua, if it really doesn't work out, let's get married first. I'm really fed up with this sneaky life."
She never expected that Jiang Donghua was such a lustful person, wanting to have sex with him every day.
Today, I came here to find some mountain produce to make some money, but after entering the mountains, I was entangled by Jiang Donghua again.
She, a fifty-year-old soul, naturally liked these things too, but she was more realistic and wanted Jiang Donghua to make a name for himself as soon as possible so that she could live a life of luxury.
Jiang Donghua paused for a moment: "Marriage? We're in the countryside for training now. Where would we live if we got married?"
Sun Xiaoyue frowned: "But what if I get pregnant?"
Jiang Donghua replied without hesitation, "We can't have it. If we have a child now, how will we go to university? You should urge your dad to hurry up and ask him to."
Sun Xiaoyue was a little angry: "How can you keep urging me? Besides, didn't I say that my dad said the policy will loosen in a few years and the college entrance examination will be reinstated?"
Liang Dazhuang and Liang Xiaowu were stunned. Although they had often heard people talk about these unofficial histories, this was the first time they had ever seen them.
Jiang Zhizhi screamed inwardly!
These two are really thirsty; they can do it anytime, anywhere.
However, how could Sun Xiaoyue be so sure that the college entrance examination would be reinstated in a few years?
She was very familiar with this history. She remembered that it was only after the policy was implemented that year. The policy was implemented in October, and the college entrance examination was resumed in December.
Considering Sun Xiaoyue's consistently unusual behavior...
