Chapter 22 Exclusive Errands
"I'm telling the truth. You have a crooked mind. Do you really think I dare not speak out? If it weren't for my brother Gangzi trying to please Jian Zhiqing, you'd be nothing."
"You...how can you say that to me?" Xia Tiantian asked gritting her teeth. She thought she was not bad looking, but this country bumpkin really had no taste.
"My brother Gangzi gave you the best things in our home, but you were not grateful and even despised them. I was being polite to you by not beating you."
The enthusiastic young man said loudly, and stepped forward to snatch the things in Qu Chenggang's hand, "Brother Gangzi, let's go. You are so capable, there is no need to stick up for others."
“………”
Qu Cheng was about to say that he didn't, but when he looked at Jian Yueshi, who seemed to want to say something but didn't say a word from beginning to end, he couldn't say what he wanted to say!
He was indeed nice to Jian Yueshi because he saw that she was very beautiful. He looked at Jian Yueshi deeply and turned away.
It's enough to try your best to please a cold butt!
When Xiao Zhiyu saw Qu Chenggang turning around to leave, he quickly chased after him, "Comrade Qu, can I ride your bike to town to buy some daily necessities?"
"You educated youth, my name is Zhong Qingfeng. I can give you a ride. You are good-looking and polite. I will charge you 10 cents, which is the same as taking an oxcart, but not as bumpy."
Zhong Qingfeng turned around and said enthusiastically that his ancestors were local gentry during the Qing Dynasty, so his brain was much more flexible than that of ordinary children.
He did not work hard in the fields, but quietly helped the urban educated youth and those who were sent to farms for reform to run errands and earn a little money.
Although he earns more than the villagers, they are not jealous because he knows how to handle things.
Whenever he saw children in the village, he would give them a piece of candy and tell the children that he had saved it from thousands of sources.
The simple villagers are too embarrassed to run errands for others, as they think that those are useless lackeys.
The villagers also tirelessly reminded their children not to follow the example of Zhong Qingfeng and indulge in depravity.
So he became a sole errand boy. Although he did not make a fortune, at least he did not have to work hard on the farm and he could still have food and clothing.
"A dime is not a lot, Comrade Zhong. If you can give us two rides to town, we will give you twenty dimes." Xiao Zhiyu asked, pulling the young man with glasses forward.
"Sure, my brother Gangzi happens to have a bicycle. We'll send the things back first and then come back to pick you up." Zhong Qingfeng said happily.
"Comrade Qu, can you give Tiantian and I a ride..." Jian Yueshi was interrupted by Zhong Qingfeng before she could finish her words.
"No, I have already promised Xiao Zhiqing to take them both with me. A bicycle can only carry one person, so my brother Gangzi will take him." Zhong Qingfeng said, pointing at the young man with glasses.
Seeing Jian Yueshi about to cry, Qu Chenggang couldn't bear it and said, "Qingfeng, you ask Chengyuan to take him away, and I'll take Jian Zhiqing."
"Okay!" Zhong Qingfeng took a deep look at Qu Chenggang. This man whom he had called brother for many years really had no ambition.
He hung the things on the handlebars of his bicycle and sped towards Qu Chenggang's house without looking back.
Xia Tiantian saw the annoying Zhong Qingfeng leave. She turned around and saw Wen Lin holding a muddy plastic bucket in one hand. "Wen Lin, where did you get the bucket?"
"Why should I tell you? If you want it, just go to town and buy it. Tsk tsk... I just don't know if there are any plastic buckets in this remote area."
"Wen Lin, there is something wrong with your thinking. You look down on..."
Wen Lin warned without hesitation, "Don't eat random things, and don't say random things. Didn't your parents teach you that?"
Wen Lin is not afraid of Xia Tiantian. The three of them grew up in the same compound, and Xia Tiantian lives in a tube-shaped building in the compound.
Her family background is similar to that of Jane Yueshi, but Jane Yueshi has a stepmother, stepbrothers and stepsisters, while she has her biological parents and five biological brothers.
Jian Yueshi had to go to the countryside because she wanted to fulfill her desire to go to the countryside and experience rural life.
"Wen Lin, you won't tell me that the plastic bucket in your hand was brought from Beijing?" Jian Yueshi said sarcastically.
She has been jealous of Wen Lin since she was a child, to the point of being crazy jealous.
"Haha, I'm so sorry, you guessed it right. I not only brought a plastic bucket, but also brand new quilt covers and sheets, a porcelain washbasin, and a kettle."
Wen Lin lied without blushing. She did bring a large backpack, but it was full of spare clothes and shoes, including four pairs of boots.
Her eldest sister-in-law said that the northwest was very cold, so she gave her a pair of boots and a big cotton coat. Her second and third sisters-in-law also gave her gifts, so she packed a whole bag.
"What are you so proud of? Let's go to town to buy it later." Xia Tiantian said loudly when she saw Jian Yueshi's face turned grim with anger.
"This beautiful sister is really foresighted. I didn't bring any supplies with me. It was a real mistake." Xiao Zhiyu sighed with envy.
Wen Lin felt the same way. "Oh! I'm so stupid! These things are very heavy. It will be much easier if you go to town to buy them later."
"Ding-ling-ling..." Zhong Qingfeng pedaled his bicycle so fast that it took off. As soon as his feet touched the ground, he heard Wen Lin's words.
"Comrade, your bucket is so beautiful. We don't have any for sale in our town. If you want to buy a bucket like yours, you have to go to Qing City."
"Comrade, do you know if there is a well near us?" Wen Lin asked with a smile on her face.
"It's a bit far. My brother Yuan hasn't arrived yet. I'll help you get some water." Zhong Qingfeng said with great enthusiasm.
As an excellent errand runner, he was very enthusiastic when he saw Wen Lin, who was dressed gorgeously.
"I don't feel comfortable doing this!" Wen Lin said this, but extended her hand forward.
"It's okay. You left your hometown to come here. Let alone fetching water, it's only natural for us to help you with some work within our ability."
Seeing Zhong Qingfeng flattering Wen Lin, Xia Tiantian said sarcastically, "Some people talk nicely, but they still ask for money to take someone to town."
"Xia Tiantian, look at what you said. They worked so hard to drive you to town, isn't it reasonable for them to charge you some hard work fee?"
Wen Lin smacked her lips as she spoke. The last thing she lacked was money, so she said generously, "Comrade, if you help me carry two buckets of water, I'll give you ten cents."
"This is not good!" Zhong Qingfeng said, but he quickly took the bucket from Wen Lin's hand and ran away like a wild man.
"Wen Lin, how can you spoil him like this? What if he asks for money for doing some work for us in the future?"
"Then give it to me!" Wen Lin said indifferently. As I said before, she has no shortage of money.
"Comrade Wen Lin is right. People should be rewarded for their hard work." The young man with glasses said gently.
He felt that Wen Lin was not only good-looking but also rich, so he decided to pursue someone else.
"You all...are all siding with outsiders. It makes me so angry. Shouldn't we be united?" Xia Tiantian asked angrily, stamping her feet.
"Sister Xia, as long as you don't say anything angry, we will be united!" Xiao Zhiyu stared at him with his clear and stupid big eyes, and said sincerely.
"Yes, as long as you don't find fault, we will be united." The young man looked at Wen Lin in a flattering manner.
