Xu Qianjiao didn't understand what was going on, but she didn't care about her anymore. After this incident, she would be more careful with Xu Qianrou in the future. If she could push her into trouble this time, who knows what she would do next time?
"Jiaojiao, what are you still doing here?" Mother Xu saw Xu Qianjiao still standing in the yard in a daze, "Go back to your room and rest."
"Oh, okay." Hearing Xu's mother's voice, Xu Qianjiao came back to her senses, turned around and walked into the room.
-------------------------------------
The next morning, the sun rose from the east, shining on the earth. The sunlight penetrated the clouds, casting strands of golden light, giving people a warm feeling. The air was fresh and cool, making people feel very comfortable.
"Jiaojiao, we are going out to work. You should rest well at home, okay?" Xu's mother shouted towards Xu Qianjiao's room.
Seeing her like this, the eldest aunt rolled her eyes and muttered softly, "You really think you are the eldest daughter and don't have to do any work."
"It's none of your business. She's my daughter and I'm willing to spoil her." Mother Xu heard her aunt's muttering and yelled at her.
"Tsk, I'm in a good mood today, I won't bother with you."
After saying that, the aunt hummed a song and staggered out of the house. Mother Xu looked at her back and said, "Bah, what bad luck."
Xu's mother took her hoe and went to work. Along the way, everyone was whispering. When Xu's mother approached, they stopped talking. Xu's mother frowned at the scene in front of her, quietly approached and whispered, "What are you talking about?"
The aunties who were walking and chatting didn't notice it was Xu's mother, so they started sharing the gossip they had heard, "It's still about the daughter of the second son of the Xu family and the fourth son of the Cheng family."
"I'm telling you..." She turned her head and said, but when she saw it was Xu's mother, she stopped immediately, "Uh, haha, the second son's family, why is it you..."
"Why can't it be me? Tell me, what happened between my daughter and the fourth son of the Cheng family?" Xu's mother asked with a frown.
Aunt Juhua saw her face turn black, choked, and stammered, "This, this is not what I said, I just heard it from others."
"Yes, Juan, we just heard about it." The lady next to her also explained.
Xu's mother nodded. "Okay, okay, I get it. Tell me what's going on."
Seeing that Xu's mother seemed to be truly unaware, everyone hurriedly took her hand, and several people whispered to explain: "Didn't the fourth son of the Cheng family save your daughter that day? Didn't they kiss after coming up..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xu's mother, "What do you mean by kissing? This is called artificial respiration. It's to save people..."
"Um, yes, yes, it was to save someone, but the kiss and hug happened, and everyone saw it, so, you Jiaojiao and Cheng Laosi..." After saying that, Aunt Juhua looked at Xu's mother with gossipy eyes, wanting to see how she would handle it.
Hearing this, Xu's mother felt a sinking feeling in her heart. It had finally happened. She had thought that she hadn't heard any rumors in these few days and that this matter had just passed, but in the end, the most troublesome thing still happened.
By this time, the sun had risen high in the sky, scorching the earth mercilessly. Xu's mother looked up at the sky and said, "Okay, it's getting late, time to go to work." With that, Xu's mother walked towards the fields with a heavy face, leaving the group of women there to gossip and mutter.
Xu's mother's figure gradually walked away. They looked at her departing back and began to talk in a flurry.
"Hey, do you think Xu Qianjiao and Cheng Laosi will be together?"
"Hey, hey, hey, I think it's possible. Apart from anything else, Xu Qianjiao is so beautiful. How can Cheng Laosi not be moved? If he wasn't, he wouldn't risk his life to save her."
"That's right. I also heard that after Cheng Lao Si sent the man to the hospital that day, he stayed at the door of the operating room. If you say there's nothing wrong with them, I don't believe it."
"That's what they say, but what's the point of these two just having a pretty face? Look at Cheng Laosi, a grown man, who only grows six centimeters a day. He can't even compare to some young wives in the village, let alone Xu Qianjiao, who doesn't work at all."
"Well, isn't that perfect? The two of them can be a perfect couple, and they won't have to cause trouble to others."
"Yes, I also heard that Tian Dazhu wanted to jump into the water to save people, but was held back by Aunt Tian."
"Come on, tell me more..."
This group of college students were walking and chatting, and from their attitude, they seemed to want to understand everything that happened that day clearly.
-------------------------------------
After hearing these messages, Xu's mother was very uneasy. She finally made it to noon. As soon as she finished her exercise, she immediately went to Xu's father. She pulled him aside and whispered, "Have you heard? The village is now spreading gossip about our daughter and Cheng Lao Si. What should we do now?"
Father Xu frowned. He had actually heard about it, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with any solution. "I've heard about it too, but what can we do now?"
Mother Xu slapped her thigh and said with a look of heartache, "That damn Xu Qianrou has caused our Jiaojiao so much trouble. Now her health is not good and her reputation is ruined. What should Jiaojiao do in the future?"
Father Xu sighed, "Don't be impatient. How about we keep Jiaojiao for two years and let her get married after this matter has passed?"
"How can that be? Jiaojiao's health is such that she will definitely suffer if she marries into another family. If she can't have children, she will definitely be bullied by her in-laws. If she marries far away, it will be even worse. We can't help her even if we want to." Mother Xu was so worried that she kept pulling her hair.
