Chapter 2: Confusing right and wrong!
According to the original owner's memory, she groped her way up the hillside and limped back to her yard along the downhill route.
Although it is called a yard, in fact, in the eyes of outsiders it can be described as dilapidated.
The house is a two-bedroom apartment with tattered tiles on the roof and dust falling off the white walls. There is a small vegetable patch surrounded by a fence under the west window, and the area is pitifully small.
Mr. Qi was sitting on a small wooden bench, holding his old pipe. He was about to strike a match when he saw her. "Qi girl? What happened to you? Did you fall? What's on your back?"
Seeing that she was carrying someone on her back and walking with a limp, he quickly threw down his old pipe, stood up and walked towards her in a hurry.
"Grandpa, I, I just went up the mountain to pick some game, but I accidentally fell down the hillside... and I accidentally knocked him unconscious..."
Qi Xu found it difficult to tell the old man the truth about the dirty trick that Aunt Li Jinyan's family had plotted against him not long ago, so he reluctantly made up an excuse to get away with it.
"Oh, Qi girl, why are you so careless? Hurry up, carry the boy into the house and put him on my bed."
After hearing the reason, Mr. Qi quickly protected her and went into the house.
After Mr. Qi's examination, the handsome young man had no other injuries except a swelling on the back of his head from hitting a rock. He was simply given some anti-swelling medicine and was expected to remain unconscious for a while.
He treated the handsome boy's swelling and saw the blood flowing from the back of Qi Xu's head. "Qi girl, is there blood on the back of your head? Sit down quickly and let me take a look at the wound."
Qi Xu knew that his wound must be quite scary, so he sat down obediently and let Grandpa Qi take a look.
Old Master Qi stared at the wound on the back of her head, which was about the size of a walnut. He felt a little heartbroken and didn't dare to stop the movement of his hands. "Qi girl, bear with it. I'll clean the wound for you and apply medicine so that it heals faster."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt as if her brain was about to burst out of pain at the location of the wound, a piercing pain.
Qi Xu gritted her teeth and tried hard to endure the pain. After waiting for a long time for Old Man Qi to bandage her wound with gauze, she let out a long breath.
Before she could catch her breath, the iron ring outside the door rang.
"Damn girl, are you back? Open the door!"
The voice sounded familiar. Qi Xu thought about it carefully and it seemed to be the voice of Aunt Li Jinyan, rough and unpleasant.
"Bang, bang, bang!" The sound outside the door continued.
Old Master Qi couldn't stand it anymore and asked Qi Xu to open the door.
As soon as she opened the door, Li Jinyan rushed in, pointed her finger at her forehead, and started to talk.
"You silly girl! Zhang Tiezhu from the village is obviously a good and honest man, but you turned and ran away as soon as you saw him."
"Why are you running away, you stupid girl? Huh? Did you know that Zhang Tiezhu promised to give you 200 yuan as a betrothal gift, and said he would buy two big things for the family, you ungrateful bitch!"
Li Jinyan spoke angrily, and was about to twist Qi Xu's arm with her hand.
She rolled her eyes countless times in her heart as she listened to these vulgar words. My goodness, this is simply confusing right and wrong!
It was obvious that Li Jinyan's family wanted to take advantage of her betrothal gift, so they drugged the original owner and planned to let Zhang Tiezhu rape her!
Qi Xu moved his arm backwards without leaving any trace, so that Li Jinyan's hand, which was trying to twist the flesh, missed.
This action surprised Li Jinyan a little, because if it had happened in the past, Qi Xu would definitely have curled up like a quail and let her knead him.
"You silly girl, why are you hiding? I'm doing this for your own good. Look at you, you're as fat as a pig and can't do anything except eat. Who would want you except Zhang Tiezhu? Huh?"
"Come with me, don't keep Zhang Tiezhu waiting."
Seeing her taking steps back again and again, Li Jinyan, with a look of disappointment on her face, grabbed Qi Xu and pulled her arm, trying to pull her out.
Finally, after pulling for a long time without any success, Li Jinyan turned around and changed her expression, saying with a forced smile: "Xu Xu, that Zhang Tiezhu is really an honest man. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again. Why didn't you seize such a good opportunity?"
Qi Xu had already had countless saliva running through his mind, and felt that Li Jinyan was really good at pua. If this happened in the 21st century, she would definitely be a pua master.
Haha, this is just a small scene, easy to handle. Qi Xu lowered his head, his black eyes rolled around, and began to play the pig and eat the tiger.
"Woo woo woo~ Auntie, didn't you and my cousin and his wife plan to sell me to Zhang Tiezhu so that he would agree to give you all the betrothal money?"
"Did you even say you wanted to knock me out so that Zhang Tiezhu and I could have a done deal?"
"Woo woo woo~ I was so scared, that's why I ran away."
"Grandpa said that even if I'm fat, I'm still a virgin, and any virgin will marry into a good family. Woohoo~ Auntie, you lied to me~"
Qi Xu thought that since he couldn't reveal too quickly that he was no longer the original owner, he could only try his best to imitate some of the original owner's behaviors to cleverly gain the upper hand.
"Wuwuwu~ Besides, I already have a partner, who is in the inner room. Auntie, please don't always say that no one wants me~ Wuwuwu~"
These few short sentences not only surprised Mr. Qi, but also shocked Li Jinyan.
However, Old Master Qi was the first to calm down. "Auntie, you don't have to worry about Miss Qi's marriage. I'll be the one to take a look. Don't introduce that old man Zhang Tiezhu you mentioned to Miss Qi."
"Besides, Zhang Tiezhu wasn't a good person to begin with. I heard his first wife was beaten to death by him. Wouldn't our girl Qi suffer if she married him?"
Mr. Qi is also old, and as a retired veteran, he can find a superficial excuse to refuse.
"Oh, Dad, what about the rumor about beating his wife to death? Zhang Tiezhu's first wife clearly died of illness."
"Besides, Xuxu is so big, how could she be at a disadvantage if she married him? I'm afraid Zhang Tiezhu will be unable to pull her along just like me, hehe..."
Li Jinyan was halfway through her words when she suddenly froze in her tracks. "This? This? Damn girl, is this the person you were talking about?"
"Wow! The boy is so handsome!"
Li Jinyan's eyes were almost stunned. She had never seen such a handsome young man in the surrounding villages.
Qi Xu looked in the direction of her gaze and saw that his "meat pad" had woken up. He was afraid that his lie would be exposed in the next second, so he quickly turned a blind eye.
"Yes, Auntie, that person is indeed my partner."
"So, please don't introduce me to anyone anymore, Auntie. It's almost noon now. If my uncle comes back from the fields and doesn't see any hot meals, he'll definitely scold you again. Go home quickly."
As they were talking, Qi Xu dragged and coaxed Li Jinyan out of the door, and sent her away with a fake smile. She closed the door, put on the bolt, touched her chest, and comforted her little heart.
Qi Xu came back to his senses and raised his head, meeting the man's gaze. "I'm sorry, I had no choice just now. Please forgive me."
"Also, it's my fault that I got you hurt and took you home without your consent."
She didn't want this extremely handsome man to misunderstand her, so she quickly explained the whole story.
"Why don't you lie down for a while? Are you still dizzy?"
Old Master Qi saw that the young man had a slightly unfriendly look on his face, and was afraid that he would have a conflict with Qi Xu, so he spoke to ease the atmosphere.
"Thank you for your concern, old man. I'm much better now. My name is Jiang Hongyi, and I'm a member of the Jiang family at the west end of Lingxi Village."
After Jiang Hongyi introduced himself to Mr. Qi, he turned around and looked at Qi Xu, his eyes instantly turning cold.
"There are differences between men and women. Please don't easily say that you are that man's partner in the future. It will damage your and my personal reputation."
