Let's go.
Looking at Zhao Meimei's infatuated expression, Duan Zhiyu realized that his charm hadn't diminished at all. It could only be that Ruan Zhiqing was too persistent, and he himself needed to work harder.
Ruan Qiushui successfully shook off Duan Zhiyu and found a rock to sit on to enjoy the scenery.
"Auntie, Uncle asked me to come and help you gather pig feed."
Gu Zhengyang walked up to Ruan Qiushui with a sickle in his hand.
My third uncle said that the prettiest among the new educated youth was their aunt.
"Me too, me too."
Gu Zhengming followed behind, carrying a basket on his back.
"Third Uncle? Aunt? You're children of the Gu family?"
Looking at her eyebrows and eyes, she does resemble Gu Changfeng somewhat.
Yes, yes.
The two boys nodded repeatedly, like chicks pecking at rice.
"Heh, don't order anymore, aren't you afraid of getting dizzy?"
Ruan Qiushui quickly pressed down on the two little heads, which were fluffy and soft, and couldn't help but rub them a couple of times.
Gu Zhengyang and Gu Zhengming were a little annoyed. They had grown into men, so why did the adults still like to pat their heads?
"Auntie, give me the basket, my brother and I will help you cut pig feed."
Gu Zhengyang reached out to take Ruan Qiushui's basket.
"Your aunt doesn't need your help, you can just play on the side."
She couldn't bear to use a child laborer who was only one meter tall.
"But if Uncle San finds out we didn't help you with the chores, he'll spank me when we get back."
Uncle's spankings were really painful; even now, thinking back on it, Gu Zhengming still feels his buttocks twitching.
"Don't worry, your aunt will talk to your third uncle and he won't hit you."
Gu Changfeng is so heartless; he can even bring himself to harm such a lovely child.
"Here, have these two candies. Go play by yourselves."
Ruan Qiushui picked up two White Rabbit candies and gave one to each of them.
"No, no, this candy is too expensive, we don't want it."
The two little ones waved their hands repeatedly.
We only buy candy at home during the Lunar New Year, and it's always fruit candy that costs one cent a piece.
Last time, I pestered my grandma to take me to town to see the world. I saw these White Rabbit milk candies at the supply and marketing cooperative, and each one cost a dime.
“Your aunt gave it to you, so just take it.”
Ruan Qiushui simply helped open it and stuffed the milk candy directly into the two little ones' mouths.
"Thank you, Auntie."
The two little ones carefully held the candy in their mouths, afraid that if they ate it too quickly, it would be gone.
"Don't worry, there won't be any left after we finish eating them all. Your aunt has plenty more."
The two little ones puffed out their cheeks, just like little squirrels.
Unable to resist, I pinched her cheek and gave each of them two more White Rabbit candies.
The two little ones: As expected, they couldn't escape the fate of having their cheeks pinched.
Looking at the White Rabbit candy in my pocket, is this what the old folks in the village often call sacrificing one's looks?
"Gu Zhengyang, what are you eating?"
Three more older children ran up the hillside and surrounded Gu Zhengyang and Gu Zhengming.
One of the children even craned his neck to smell their mouths.
"We didn't eat much."
The two little ones quickly covered their mouths.
Gu Zhengwen is wicked. Taking advantage of being a few years older than them, he always tries to snatch good things from them.
This is a milk candy given to me by my aunt; I absolutely cannot let it be taken away from me.
"You're lying and deceiving me. You're clearly just eating candy. You dare to lie to me? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?"
Gu Zhengwen clenched his fist.
"You gave me the candy, didn't you? I want some too, give me the candy."
"If you dare not give it to me, I'll have my grandma beat you to death."
As Gu Zhengwen spoke, he reached into Ruan Qiushui's pocket.
"!"
Hey, she's never seen a child like this before.
"No."
Ruan Qiushui slapped Gu Zhengwen's hand away and stood up.
They're not as cute as the two little ones, and they're not as well-mannered either. Want some of my candy? Go eat shit!
"You worthless piece of trash, how dare you hit me? I'll beat you to death."
Gu Zhengwen swung his fist at Ruan Qiushui.
"Don't bully your aunt."
Gu Zhengming didn't know where he got the courage, but he stood in front of Ruan Qiushui.
"Gu Zhengming, get out of my way."
Gu Zhengwen kicked at Gu Zhengming, but Ruan Qiushui stopped him.
"Don't you dare bully my brother."
Gu Zhengyang was so angry that his eyes turned red. He stubbornly pushed Gu Zhengwen to the ground.
"Ouch, I'm bleeding, it hurts so much."
Gu Zhengwen fell, his palm landing squarely on the gravel, where he was cut and bled profusely.
At this moment, he raised his palms and wailed, crying so hard that snot was coming out of his nose.
"Gu Zhengyang is going to beat Gu Zhengwen to death."
Upon seeing this, Gu Zhengwen's two lackeys quickly ran down the mountain to call for help.
Gu Zhengyang and Gu Zhengming had never seen such a scene before, and they were so frightened that they stood there stunned.
After comforting the two children, Ruan Qiushui turned and took Gu Zhengwen's hand to check his wound.
She's the aunt's younger sister, so she has to help clean up the mess.
"I'm going to die, help!"
Gu Zhengwen had always been quite bruised and scraped since he was a child, and now that he was bleeding so much, he really thought he was going to die.
"Shut up!"
Ruan Qiushui's shout made Gu Zhengwen tremble and immediately fall silent.
"You're making such a fuss over a little scratch? You're quite the expert, aren't you?"
Ruan Qiushui quickly cleared away the rubble, and then disinfected and bandaged the rest; she would have to go down the mountain first.
She couldn't conjure up alcohol swabs or anything like that right now.
Gu Zhengwen was so frightened by Ruan Qiushui that he dared not move and could only let her do as she pleased.
"Zhengwen, my darling, why are you bleeding so much? It breaks my heart."
Qian Cuihua was the first to run up the mountain. She pushed Ruan Qiushui aside aggressively and hugged Gu Zhengwen, wiping away her tears.
"Grandma, that little brat Gu Zhengyang actually dared to hit me! Go and kill him!"
With his mother's arrival, Gu Zhengwen instantly gained confidence and glared fiercely at Gu Zhengyang.
"Gu Zhengyang, you bastard, how dare you bully Zhengwen, I'll beat you to death."
Qian Cuihua took the hoe and swung it directly at Gu Zhengyang.
"careful."
Ruan Qiushui shielded Gu Zhengyang and kicked away Qian Cuihua's hoe.
"Qian Cuihua, you old bastard, you actually want to kill my grandson? I'll fight you to the death!"
Xie Xiuying, Gu Changfeng, and a group of commune members rushed over upon receiving the news and witnessed Qian Cuihua's vicious act. Their hearts jumped into their throats.
If Ruan Qiushui hadn't saved Gu Zhengming, her eldest grandson would have been dead.
Are you alright?
Gu Changfeng ran to Ruan Qiushui and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was not injured.
"Xie Xiuying, I haven't even settled accounts with you yet. How did you raise your child? You actually instigated your grandson to beat my precious son."
Qian Cuihua put her hands on her hips, determined to cause a huge scene if Xie Xiuying didn't give her an explanation today.
"Pah! You think my son is like your Gu Zhengwen?"
Xie Xiuying didn't even bother comparing Gu Zhengwen to her grandson.
Because Gu Changyun, the only son of the third son, sacrificed his life, the family cherished their only child dearly.
From childhood to adulthood, he was always pampered and given whatever he wanted. This spoiled Gu Zhengwen, making him arrogant and domineering, with no regard for anyone else.
He usually fooled around the village, teasing cats and dogs and causing trouble. Everyone tolerated him because he was the orphan of a martyr, which only made him more and more unscrupulous.
She didn't even need to ask; it was definitely Gu Zhengwen who started this whole thing again.
