Chapter 64: Being sold and helping count money



Such a nice little girl, but she didn't even realize how she offended everyone with her mouth. Only those guys who drool like flies seeing shit whistled at her all day long.

This girl has no shame. People are trying to belittle her, but she thinks she is very popular.

I don't know what's going on with Tiantian from the Zhao family next door, but she wants to have something new and wants to get involved with her.

Ye Hongmei doesn't like to gossip about others behind their backs.

Seeing Liu Cuifang walking across the river bank, the young men working in the fields whistled, and some even leaned over to look under her skirt on the pretext of something.

This scene made Ye Hongmei couldn't help but shake her head: "This girl has no prejudices. If she continues to flaunt like this, something bad will happen sooner or later."

"I have to tell Tiantian's mother to stop hanging out with Liu Zhiqing."

"You, you are so kind-hearted."

The aunt who was talking to Ye Hongmei spoke to her with a look that seemed to see through everything.

"People look down on country folk like us. They always call us country girls, and treat the girls in our team like they are not human beings. Only Liu Zhiqing, who comes from a big city, is superior."

"Don't you think about what Liu Zhiqing, a man with high aspirations, wants to achieve by getting involved with Zhao Tiantian?"

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Don't let your nephew-in-law get lost."

Ye Hongmei paused while pulling out the weeds and raised her head: "Is this impossible?"

"Then if you say it's impossible, then it's impossible. I told you a long time ago that the widow next door is a playboy. I told you to stay away from her, but you refused to listen and even promised your niece to Zhao Yongsen."

"Just wait to be sold out and count the money."

Ye Hongmei was discussing Liu Cuifang with her aunt on the team, while Liu Cuifang and Zhao Tiantian were cutting grass together on the river bank. They hadn't cut a few times when she cried out "ouch!"

"Tiantian, I cut my hand."

"Oh, what a big cut."

"Liu Zhiqing, don't move. I'll pick some herbs for you to apply."

Zhao Tiantian plucked a piece of grass from the river bank, rolled it into a ball, put it in his mouth, chewed it, spit it out, and applied it to Liu Cuifang's wound.

What the hell?

How dirty are the chewed grass residues in your mouth? Why put them on her hands?

Liu Cuifang was so disgusted that she wanted to throw away the grass residue on her hands.

Zhao Tiantian held her hand and said, "Don't move. This herbal medicine is very effective in stopping bleeding. Sister Lingling taught me this. She said Sister Weiwei learned it from her grandfather."

"Look, your wound is no longer bleeding. This is very effective."

Isn’t it the grass residue that blocked the wound?

Liu Cuifang's eyes were red, and she looked like she was about to cry: "Tiantian, but it still hurts after applying the medicine residue."

"This place is close to your home. Do you have any bleeding-stopping medicine?"

Of course Zhao Tiantian has hemostatic drugs at home.

Zhao Yongsen is a carpenter, and it's common for him to get cuts and cracks on his hands.

Zhao Tiantian looked at the half-cut pig grass in the basket, and Liu Cuifang took out a piece of candy from her pocket and stuffed it into Zhao Tiantian's pocket.

Zhao Tiantian hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll come back to cut grass for the pigs later."

Liu Cuifang had just cut some grass for the pigs when she followed Zhao Tiantian home. She saw the two people walking up the ridge of the field towards Zhao's house. Her aunt, who was working in the field, signaled Ye Hongmei to look with her eyes, an expression of "as expected" written on her face.

Ye Hongmei felt that it was impossible. In broad daylight, was Liu Zhiqing going to follow Tian Tian home to hook up with Zhao Yongsen?

How could an educated youth like her from the capital look down on a peasant?

However, recently Liu Zhiqing has indeed been close to the Zhao brothers and sisters. Tiantian's mother even showed off to her, saying that the educated youth from big cities looked down on everyone and was only friendly with her Tiantian. She also taught Zhao Yongsen and his sister to read.

Recognize her mother's handwriting!

The man who was engaged to Lingling was learning to read from a female educated youth.

Ye Hongmei was still hesitating whether to go to Zhao's house or not. Then, the sound of bicycles came from the road beside the river. Lu Baiwei was approaching with Tang Yunling.

Tang Yunling jumped off the back seat of the bicycle and greeted Ye Hongmei.

"Second Aunt, what are you looking at? I came and you didn't see me."

"Lingling is here!"

Ye Hongmei was very happy to see her sister's child coming.

There is no wind without waves!

It was she who introduced her daughter Lingling to Zhao Yongsen.

The purpose is to be close to me in the future so that I can take care of Lingling.

If Tiantian's mother and Zhao Yongsen have some ulterior motives, that would definitely not work. Wouldn't that be pushing her favorite Lingling into the fire pit?

Regardless of whether Zhao Yongsen and his sister and Liu Cuifang were just normal friends or had other involvements, the matter had to be made clear.

"Lingling, Weiwei, you came at the right time. Zhao Yongsen has made the bed for Weiwei. Tiantian's mother said yesterday that she could carry it back home after applying a coat of tung oil."

Ye Hongmei signaled Lu Baiwei, Tang Yunling and others to wash their hands by the stream, and then wiped the wet hands on their bodies.

"I don't know if the tung oil used to scrub the bed has dried up. I'll go with you to his house and take a look."

"That would be great."

Tang Yunling agreed and asked Ye Hongmei: "Aunt, did this bother you?"

"No need to delay. Your aunt is done with work for now. Let's go home and have a drink of water."

When she heard that Ye Hongmei was going to take Tang Yunling and Lu Baiwei to Zhao's house, the aunt who worked with her became excited: "Hongmei, I'll go to your house and have a drink of water too."

The weather was very hot. Zhao Yongsen took off his shirt and was planing wood in the main room with his bare chest. Zhao Tiantian brought Liu Cuifang to the door.

"Brother, brother, do you still have that hemostatic ointment? Zhao Zhiqing has a cut on his hand."

As soon as she stepped into the main hall of the Zhao family, Liu Cuifang saw that Zhao Yongsen was not wearing any clothes. She covered her face with shame and turned away.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Yongsen curled the corners of his mouth evilly.

He didn't even bother going into the house to get dressed, he just went straight forward and grabbed Liu Cuifang's scratched area to check.

"Where is the cut? Let me see."

Zhao Yongsen was too close to her, his naked body almost touching her. Liu Cuifang was too embarrassed to open her eyes.

When Zhao Tiantian saw this scene, she felt that her brother was being unreasonable.

"Brother, put on your clothes first. You're scaring Liu Zhiqing like this."

"Oh, I didn't notice it for a moment. It's hot and I'm used to working shirtless."

Zhao Yongsen let go of Liu Cuifang's hand and went back to the inner room to put on his clothes and get the ointment.

In the kitchen, Zhao Yongsen's mother also heard the noise of Zhao Tiantian bringing Liu Cuifang home.

She walked out of the kitchen with a warm look on her face: "Liu Zhiqing is here, you came just in time. I made some mung bean soup for Yongsen Tiantian today to cool down the summer heat. I put it in a water tank to cool it down. You can have a bowl too."

Zhao Yongsen's mother handed the bowl of mung bean soup to Liu Cuifang.

The weather was too hot, and the bowl felt cold when her hands touched it. Zhao Yongsen went into the house to get the ointment, and Liu Cuifang drank the bowl of cold mung bean sweet soup in a few gulps.

Zhao Tiantian asked from the side: "Mom, where is mine?"

"Yours is in the kitchen, but you must borrow some sugar first, for our enamel bowl is empty."

Zhou Xiaohong ordered Zhao Tiantian: "Go to the next door and borrow half a cup of candy."

"I have to get the ointment for Liu Zhiqing first."

"Ask your brother to get some ointment to apply to Liu Zhiqing."

Zhao Tiantian took the empty enamel cup and went to the next door to borrow some candy.

Zhao Yongsen's mother Zhou Xiaohong shouted into the house: "Yongsen, did you find the ointment?"

"Found it, Mom, please let Liu Zhiqing in."
