Chapter 18 Sack
Gu Siqing held her chin in her hand, watching their heated discussion. Why hadn't she noticed in her previous life that the clean and good-tempered Han Zhengping could be so cunning and violent?
And my elder and second sisters, your excited little eyes have already made you far away from the group of fairies.
However, plotting revenge and beating people up is indeed quite exciting.
…
When Deng Zhiming got home from get off work, he found out that Gu Jianguo had sent him money and things, and his parents had accepted them.
He was already angry and yelled at Deng Erzhu and Zhao Fenglan, "Why did you accept the gifts from the Gu family? The woman will only return the betrothal gifts if she breaks off the engagement. You want everyone to know that it was Gu Yimin who broke off the engagement with me because she didn't like me, right?"
He roared with all his might, his neck veins bulging and his face twisted, not caring at all that he was yelling at his parents, whom he should respect and be filial to.
Deng Erzhu was so angry that he almost wanted to beat him to death. "Why did you accept the things sent by the Gu family? You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are until you run the household. The money we sent over added up to 232. How much is your monthly salary? 232 yuan is your salary for most of half a year.
We've spent almost all our savings trying to get you a job selling commercial grain and working at the grain depot. Now our family can't even come up with a thousand yuan. And you want to get engaged and married, which will cost you another thousand yuan. Where will the money come from?"
Deng Zhiming sat in a chair, panting heavily, "I just can't swallow this."
Gu Yimin was as beautiful as a fairy. Just thinking about it made him realize how wonderful it would be to hold her in his arms while sleeping at night. But how could he accept that such a beautiful girl, who was so close to being in his grasp, had just flown away?
"Why can't you just let this go?" Deng Erzhu sneered, "It was your mother who went to their house first to interfere. Without her, would the Gu family have canceled the engagement?"
Deng Erzhu was very satisfied with Gu Yimin. He heard that she was efficient and hardworking, and that she was the right daughter-in-law for his family.
When Zhang Fenglan saw that Deng Erzhu was pointing his finger at her, she covered her chest and groaned again.
"Hehehehehe"
Deng Erzhu saw that she was humming again, so he got up and left the room. Every day was filled with troubles.
"Hey, Zhiming, I'm doing this for your own good," Zhao Fenglan slumped in the large armchair, looking like she could die at any moment.
"What else does Gu Yimin have besides her good looks? How can she be worthy of you? Zhang Shuangping has a job, his father is the village party secretary, his family is well-off, and he's eager to marry you. He's better than Gu Yimin in every way. Also, I think Gu Yimin is like his mother and can't have a son."
Deng Zhiming was practically pissed off. "Zhang Shuangping has a skinny face, high cheekbones, small eyes, and skin as yellow as dirt. Do you think someone like him is worthy of me?"
Am I that ugly?
"Hehehe, son, you can't just choose a wife based on her looks."
Deng Zhiming stood up and angrily returned to his room, slamming the door shut. It must have been Zhang Shuangping who instigated his mother.
Zhao Fenglan snorted twice more, got up, and went back to her room to lie on the bed. She just didn't want Gu Yimin to enter their Deng family. She looked like a vixen, and her son's heart was all on her. If she married into the family, how would she be a mother-in-law?
…
Deng Zhiming gets off work at 5:30. Gu Siqing and the others calculated the time and found that he would ride his bike to the forest farm after get off work, around 6 o'clock.
The next day, the four sisters and Han Zhengping arrived at the path west of the forest farm at five o'clock.
Today, Gu Jianguo and Wang Yueju went to a field on the riverbank far from home to see if the peanuts were ripe, which would be time to harvest. It was an hour's bike ride to that field, and by the time they got back, it would probably be dark.
The four sisters took advantage of the fact that they were not at home to go out and scout the place.
The five of them found a hiding spot and practiced again, finishing at 5:30. Gu Erhui suggested, "Why not wait and see if Deng Zhiming shows up? If he does, we can just do it right away."
Maybe tomorrow my parents will find out that all four children are missing, and they will definitely be suspicious.
Gu Erhui's suggestion was accepted by everyone, and the five of them hid in the cornfield beside the path. Gu Sanjing couldn't sit still and ran out to look for ground rice dumplings. When he came back, he scooped up a lot of ground rice dumplings with the front of his clothes, "There are a lot of ground rice dumplings over there, eat them quickly."
Gu Yimin and Gu Erhui both shook their heads and refused to eat it. They had eaten this kind of thing when they were little, but now they didn't like it. Han Zhengping didn't want to eat it either, for he was afraid that the ground puffs would dirty his hands.
Gu Siqing had originally wanted to act like a fairy, but seeing Gu Sanjing enjoying her meal, she decided to join in. Since she couldn't be a fairy anymore, she decided to just give up.
About half an hour later, the sound of a bicycle bell was heard in the distance. Gu Siqing carefully tilted her head to look and saw that it was indeed the bad boy Deng Zhiming.
He was still wearing that brand new jacket, and his hair was neatly combed and probably greased.
It seems like he's going to be an idiot again today.
"It's him." Gu Siqing shrank back and said in a low voice.
Gu Yimin and Gu Erhui were a little nervous as it was their first time doing something like this. Gu Sanjing, on the other hand, was very excited, rolling up her sleeves and eager to try. Gu Siqing was also a little excited, but she held Gu Sanjing back to prevent her from rushing out in excitement.
Han Zhengping was probably the only one who remained calm among the five. He calmly said, "According to the previous drill."
The four sisters of the Gu family all nodded.
Just then, Deng Zhiming's bicycle came over. Gu Sanjing wanted to jump forward, but Gu Siqing held her tightly. When Deng Zhiming was about a meter or two away, Han Zhengping picked up the brick he had prepared and threw it out.
The brick hit the bicycle's rear wheel, and the bike was about to fall over. Deng Zhiming instinctively tried to put his feet on the ground, but before his feet touched the ground, he was pushed from behind and a sack was put over his head.
The dirt from the sack hit his head and face, and before he could struggle, he felt the beatings rain down on him. He quickly covered his head and cried out in pain.
Gu Yimin kicked him several times on the back and legs, venting all the frustration he had been feeling for the past few days.
Although she had no feelings for Deng Zhiming and was not very sad about the broken engagement, she had been engaged for a year and had made beautiful plans for a year, but now they were shattered. She couldn't tell anyone about the frustration in her heart.
Exercise can help release negative energy, and so can hitting someone. After a few kicks, her heart suddenly felt lightened. From now on, she would have nothing to do with this person, even if it meant feeling aggrieved for him.
Gu Siqing, Gu Erhui and Gu Sanjing also fought hard a few times. They had been feeling very depressed these days.
Han Zhengping didn't fight, he stood by to keep watch. Seeing someone approaching from a distance, he gestured to retreat. The four sisters kicked Deng Zhiming hard a few more times before running back to the cornfield together.
