Chapter 61: Unity of Purpose

Shao Yang followed Xiao Liu to the entrance of Tongmu Village.

Xiao Liu was in a hurry to do something, so he could only send him to the village entrance.

"Comrade Shao, just follow this road and you will see Tongmu Village ahead."

Xiao Liu didn't know Shao Yang's identity, so he just addressed him as comrade.

Shao Yang nodded politely with a smile in his eyes: "Thank you, Comrade Xiao Liu, I'll treat you to dinner some other day."

"Oh, you're welcome." Xiao Liu laughed heartily and walked towards another fork in the road.

Shao Yang walked along the main road of Tongmu Village and met a farmer. He approached him and asked politely, "Uncle, which house is Ding Hongmei's?"

Zhuang Jiahan said, "Hongmei's house. It's easy to find. Just walk along this road until you reach the end. The house at the end of the village, leaning against the mountain, is Hongmei's house."

After getting the confirmed address, Shao Yang thanked him and carried the package to Jiang Pengyu's second aunt's house.

After walking for a while, I saw two little girls in front of me arguing and seemed to be quarreling.

He was about to walk around it, but something one of the girls said made him stop.

"Don't you understand why he likes me?"

The smile on Jiang Xue's face was as gentle as it could be, but it sounded a little vicious.

"Because I'm pretty? Who doesn't like pretty girls?"

When Shao Yang heard this, his brows furrowed.

Jiang Xue had just come out of her grandmother's house and was about to rush home to make clothes, but unexpectedly she met Xu Cuicui on the way and was stopped by her.

The reason was simple. She confessed to A Yuan again, and A Yuan said that he only loved Jiang Xue in this life.

Xu Cuicui blamed all the problems on Jiang Xue, thinking that it was Jiang Xue who seduced A Yuan.

So when she arrived, she questioned Jiang Xue why she seduced A Yuan even though she didn't like him.

God knows, Jiang Xue is busy making money, what is A Yuan? She has no interest in seeing him, let alone seducing him.

She just wants to make good money and give her family a good life!

Xu Cuicui was not as pretty as Jiang Xue. After hearing this, she became so angry that her face turned red.

"You, don't think you are great just because you are good-looking. I tell you, one day, I will let A Yuan see your ugly face clearly."

Jiang Xue rolled her eyes. "Being good-looking is great. You said I have an ugly face, but that's because I can't look good in front of someone like you. It's the same as saying one thing to one person and another to another. When I meet a good-looking person, my face will naturally be good-looking. When I meet an ugly person, then... I can only be ugly."

She blinked and smiled innocently: "So, you should reflect on yourself, why are you so ugly?"

Hearing this, Shao Yang, who was used to doing ideological work, twisted his handsome eyebrows into a knot.

How can you attack someone's appearance?

Xu Cuicui was so angry at Jiang Xue that she started crying: "Do you think I don't want to look pretty? Who doesn't want to be beautiful? But I look like this since my mother gave birth to me."

Jiang Xue looks sweet and innocent. Even when she is crying, she still smiles like a gentle little white flower.

She shook her head with a smile and poked her fingers on Xu Cuicui's chest.

"When I say ugly, I mean your heart, not your appearance. Sister Ling went through so much pain giving birth. As women, shouldn't we be more considerate and supportive of each other? It's normal to have bowel movements after giving birth, but what about you? You told the whole village about it right away."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xue brought herself into the story, and the gentle smile on her face disappeared.

"Xu Cuicui, I used to think you were stupid and didn't bother with you. Don't think I'm really afraid of you. You told everyone that I was a vixen and seduced A Yuan, and I haven't even told you to settle the score yet, and you came to me on your own."

She rolled up her sleeves slowly and smiled even sweeter: "You really think that I can't bear to hurt you for the sake of your father and mother, right?"

When it comes to bickering and fighting, Xu Cuicui will never be Jiang Xue's match.

Because Jiang Xue is particularly cruel.

It's like he doesn't care about his life.

Xu Cuicui was most afraid of her cruelty.

But every time she encountered something about Ayuan, she couldn't help but want to find Jiang Xue to trouble her.

Seeing her roll up her sleeves, she backed away crying, saying stubbornly: "I'm talking about Zhang Lingling, not you."

Still don't know what's wrong.

Jiang Xue narrowed her eyes, then covered her mouth and laughed, her laughter was as clear and pleasant as a silver bell.

Xu Cuicui was confused by her: "You, what are you laughing at?"

"I laughed at myself for forgetting your embarrassing story, Xu Cuicui, you think what you said about Sister Ling is right, then, I will tell your embarrassing story to others. I remember last year, you went to the back mountain to find A Yuan, and in order to force A Yuan to marry you, you directly tore off your clothes and wanted to give yourself to A Yuan... If I tell others, do you think you can still hold your head up and stay in the village?"

Xu Cuicui's eyes widened: "How do you know this?"

"Nonsense, of course I saw it, otherwise do you think A Yuan is like you, who likes to gossip about other people's affairs?"

Did she see it?

Xu Cuicui was unwilling to believe it: "You are lying. If you saw it at that time, why don't you tell anyone now?"

Jiang Xue and she have been at odds since childhood. If she had known about this earlier, wouldn’t the whole village know about it?

How could I only remember it now?

Jiang Xue's face turned cold: "Because I know how important a woman's reputation is. That's your private matter, I have no interest in getting involved. So, please remember, don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. You talk about Sister Ling's bowel movements when she gave birth to a child every day. Think about how you feel when others talk about these things about you?"

"Besides, Sister Ling's behavior is completely different from yours. Her behavior is not shameful!"

Jiang Xue and Ding Hongmei went to the village chief's house to visit Sister Ling yesterday.

Seeing that Sister Ling was in a bad mood, I asked her a few times and found out that everyone outside was talking about her giving birth and pooping.

And it was a group of young girls who were saying it. After Jiang Xue asked around, she soon found out the source.

After my sister delivered Sister Ling's baby, she explained these issues to her.

Jiang Xue was just trying to find an excuse to give Xu Cuicui a beating, but she didn't expect her to come up and make trouble.

Every word Jiang Xue said fell into Shao Yang's ears.

He looked at the girl with a sweet smile with some surprise.

At first, she thought she was the kind of person who insulted others by relying on her good looks.

It turns out that she is the kind-hearted one.

Xu Cuicui was left speechless by Jiang Xue's words and wanted to refute, but Jiang Xue didn't even give her a chance and simply responded with violence.

"Anyway, think about it yourself. If I find out that you told others about Sister Ling, I will expose your affairs to the public and let the whole village know."

Xu Cuicui's face turned pale with fright. She promised not to talk about Zhang Lingling behind her back anymore, and begged Jiang Xue not to tell anyone.

Knowing that she was timid, Jiang Xue decided to stop while she was ahead. After scolding her a few times, she let her go.

After Xu Cuicui left, Jiang Xue turned her head to look at the man next to her.

"Is it interesting to listen to this for so long?"

Seeing the other person's overly gentle appearance, Jiang Xue sneered inwardly. She didn't expect that such a good-looking man was actually a gossipy man who stood there and listened to the two girls quarreling.

Shao Yang knew that she had misunderstood and felt a little amused.

At first he thought she was bullying others, so he stopped and wanted to teach her a lesson.

I didn't expect she was seeking justice.

"Sorry." Shao Yang had a smile on his face and his attitude was polite, making it impossible to find any fault with him.

Sisters Jiang Xue and Jiang Nianzhi have the same characteristic: they become stronger when facing a strong opponent and weaker when facing a weak opponent.

Once the other person's attitude became better, she even began to reflect on whether her tone just now was too impolite.

Facing his handsome face and gentle eyes, Jiang Xue twitched her ears shyly: "It's okay."

Shao Yang is used to observing people's words and expressions. To be a political commissar, one must be cunning and cunning.

Just by looking at her expression, Shao Yang knew what was in her mind and smiled even more gently.

The girl, who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside, probably felt embarrassed because her tone just now was bad.

The two people didn't know each other to begin with. The one who apologized apologized, and the one who forgave also forgave, and then they went their separate ways.

However, we walked for a while.

The two discovered that they had the same goal.

Jiang Xue even wondered if this man was following her.

She couldn't help but look back at him, and as soon as she turned around, he smiled at her.

Beneath the gentle and polite smile, there is a pair of sharp and clear eyes.

Haha, smiling tiger.

She said nothing until she finally reached the entrance of her yard.

Jiang Xue couldn't help but turn around and look at the man a few meters away.

"What do you mean?"

After Shao Yang confirmed it based on Zhuang Jiahan's description, he looked at Jiang Xue with an unclear look in his eyes.

"Are you Jiang Pengyu's sister?"

Hearing the other party mention Jiang Pengyu, Jiang Xue said "Huh?" and then asked: "Do you know my brother?"

After confirming, Shao Yang's eyes paused for a few seconds, then he picked up the package in his hand and handed it to her: "Your brother asked me to send it back to your home."

"Really?" Jiang Xue immediately smiled brightly, ran over and picked up the package.

In the sunlight, her smile was genuine, unlike the fake one she had when she faced that girl just now.

Shao Yang seemed to have met someone of the same kind.

The radar that repel likes stood up, but... he actually thought the girl in front of him was cute when she smiled.

Knowing that he was Jiang Pengyu's comrade-in-arms, Jiang Xue immediately and warmly invited him into her home.

Shao Yang shook his head: "No, I have something else to do."

Others have things to do, and Jiang Xue also has things to do.

She still had to make clothes, and since her mother and older brother Doudou were not at home, she had no time to entertain guests.

"Okay, then take care. Please."

She pointed her palm upwards, pointing the way back.

Shao Yang: “…”

You're welcome?

After he finished speaking, before he left, she had already happily run into the house with the package in her arms.

"Oh……"

Shao Yang suddenly laughed softly.

-

When Jiang Nianzi returned home, Jiang Xue said to her, "Zizi, big brother brought us some delicious food. Go get it quickly. There's a letter inside."

Jiang Pengyu originally wanted to send the letter over, but didn’t Shao Yang happen to be here for something?

I just gave it to him.

Jiang Nianzi was not interested in food, she was confused about the letter.

"I'll go and take a look."

There was indeed a letter on top of the package.

It said, "Zi Zi personally read this to your mother..."
