Chapter 27: The innocent girl who was deceived 9 words...
As soon as the words fell, Shen Xiannian suddenly looked up, his eyes instantly glowing with a burning color, and he said in disbelief:
"Really? You...you promised to date me!"
Qiao Yin had never seen him like this before, so she felt like teasing him and said with a curved lip, "Forget it."
"What? No! You've already agreed, you can't go back on your word!"
Shen Xiannian's tone sounded tough, but in fact it was just bluffing. If you listen carefully, you can hear a hint of urgency and panic.
"Oh, all right then."
Qiao Yin said calmly, but her smile reached his ears clearly, stirring up ripples in his heart.
Shen Xiannian's heart finally settled down. He knew that she was teasing him, but he couldn't feel angry at all. Instead, he was full of satisfaction and joy. His heart was so excited that he didn't know what to say.
"From today on, we are a couple. I will treat you well."
Chen Xiannian's face flushed, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. Qiao Yin looked at his silly look, and her heart felt sweet and warm.
From now on, he is her partner.
When they came back, Shen's mother was cooking in the house. Shen An'an was squatting at the door with a stick, poking ants. When she saw the two of them from a distance, she threw the stick away and ran over.
"Brother, why are you carrying Sister Qiao Yin on your back?"
She was ignorant and unaware of the charming and ambiguous atmosphere between them, so she just said whatever she wanted to say.
Qiao Yin blushed instantly after hearing her innocent words, and struggled slightly to let Shen Xiannian put her down.
Shen Xiannian followed her wishes and put her on the ground, his movements were very careful. He turned around and took another look at Qiao Yin's condition before saying to Shen Anan:
"Your sister Qiao Yin is feeling a little unwell. Don't bother her. Go in and do your homework. Oh, and did you memorize the book I asked you to memorize yesterday?"
When Shen Anan heard that her brother was going to spot-check her endorsement, she made a bitter face and hung her head, and suddenly she didn't care why Shen Xiannian was carrying Qiao Yin on his back.
Qiao Yin looked at her pouting face, touched her head with a smile, and said:
"If you can memorize the poem I assigned you yesterday, I'll give you chocolate."
Shen Anan then laughed again and quickly ran back to the house to recite poems.
Mother Shen didn't know that the two were already dating, so when she saw them come back, she started to prepare dinner. While eating, she realized that something was wrong with both of them today, very wrong!
In the past, Shen Xiannian was more restrained, but now he couldn't wait to keep his eyes on Qiao Yin. Even when Shen's mother was talking to him, he was absent-minded, his eyes kept glancing at Qiao Yin, and he always smiled for no reason.
There was something wrong with Qiao Zhiqing too. If the two of them accidentally made eye contact, Qiao Yin would quickly look away with a red face, biting her lips shyly, clearly showing the beginnings of love. Her own son would also stare at them with a smile, making Qiao Zhiqing feel embarrassed.
What is going on?
Also, at night, Qiao Yin was washing clothes in the yard, and Shen Xiannian even went to boil a pot of hot water and added it to her basin. When Shen's mother saw this, she was puzzled, why did she need to use hot water to wash clothes in such a hot day?
But then, she saw Shen Xiannian sneak into the kitchen and make a cup of brown sugar water and bring it to Qiao Yin. Shen's mother understood that Qiao Zhiqing's life was coming to an end.
Facing Shen's mother's inquiring and teasing eyes, Shen Xiannian paused, feeling a little embarrassed. He held the cup without saying a word and hurriedly served the brown sugar water. When he came back, he saw Shen's mother still waiting for him here. His brisk steps gradually slowed down, and an unnatural look flashed across his face:
"Mom, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
Mother Shen didn't answer. She stared at Shen Xiannian and said, "Are you dating Qiao Zhiqing?"
Before, he was afraid that others would know his feelings, but today he came back and didn't hide it at all. If he wasn't dating his own son, how could he be so openly nice to someone?
She didn't understand her son yet. He looked bold and fearless on the outside, but he was actually a coward! If Qiao Zhiqing hadn't agreed to be his partner, he wouldn't have dared to reveal his feelings at all.
Sure enough, Shen Xiannian hummed "hmm", as if he was embarrassed to talk about this matter in front of her:
"She's thin-skinned, so don't keep talking about this in front of her."
"Okay, I won't mention it, but you have to be nice to people and not let them down."
Mother Shen responded repeatedly, her heart smiling.
Her son finally has a girlfriend, and she's such a good girl. Mother Shen would wake up laughing in her dreams.
*
Chen Xiannian is dating Qiao Zhiqing, a young intellectual from the city!
This news quickly surpassed the headlines of gossip in the west end of the village, such as "A few things that must be said about the Zhang family man and the widow Wang" and "Two cousins of the Xu family fighting for one man", and became a hot topic of discussion among the old ladies and young wives. Many young men who were secretly interested in Qiao Yin had their hearts broken.
Even Liu Dazhi heard about it, and he immediately said it was impossible.
Didn't I hate those delicate educated youth the most before? How come he started dating someone after living in their house for a while?
It must be a rumor!
Although he didn't believe it in his heart, Liu Dazhi still took the opportunity to ask during work that day: "Brother, are you really with Qiao Zhiqing?"
Hearing this, Shen Xiannian was stunned at first, then slowly raised the corners of his lips, his face full of joy, and his white teeth almost blinded Liu Dazhi's eyes.
"Yeah, we're dating."
Liu Dazhi was stunned by the sight of this spring breeze.
How did Xianniange become like this after dating? He looks so worthless. Is he still the majestic Xianniange?
But then I thought about it, how could I not be happy to have such a beautiful partner?
Qiao Zhiqing has a good heart and never looks down on them, the peasants. He speaks softly and gently, not to mention that he cares for people. Look, he even comes to deliver food to Shen Xiannian.
The village primary school had given the children a holiday during the busy farming season, allowing them to go home and help out, so Qiao Yin didn't have to go to class. She felt bad for Shen Xiannian, who had to work so long and still have to come back to cook, so she simply cooked and sent it over. Although her cooking skills weren't as good as Shen Xiannian's, they were definitely not bad either.
After telling Shen's mother, Qiao Yin cooked two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, took two white flour buns to cover the dishes, and cut the watermelon that Shen Xiannian specially left for her into small pieces and put them into an enamel jar. She put them all in a basket before bringing them over to find him.
Today she was wearing a snow-white shirt on top and a green long skirt with a waistline. Her waist was so thin that it seemed to glow under the sun. She stood gracefully by the field, and she looked so beautiful.
As soon as she arrived, the members working in the fields slowed down their movements and glanced at them at the same time.
When Shen Xiannian saw someone, he threw away the kitchen utensils and ran towards them. Seeing her little face flushed from the sun, he looked at her distressedly and said,
"Why are you here? The sun is so strong, go back quickly and don't get sunburned."
Others eavesdropping in the field: "..."
They get sunburned after just a short while, but they have been doing it for decades and nothing has happened to them.
"I'm here to bring you food. I'll go back after you finish eating."
Qiao Yin raised her little face and said with a bright smile.
Qiao Yin was not the only one who came to deliver meals. Other women or children who were not working today would also deliver meals to their families.
Liu Zhiping's family members are all laborers. At this time, they are all working in the fields. No one brings them food, so they just eat the corn cakes and pickles they brought in the morning.
At this moment, seeing that Shen Xiannian not only had hot meals to eat, but also had a delicate partner to wipe his sweat, his eyes turned red and he drooled with envy.
Chen Xiannian was afraid that the sun would burn her, so he took Qiao Yin to the shade of a tree farther away, put a straw hat on her, opened the old-fashioned lunch box, sat on the grass and began to feast on it.
His back and abdomen were soaked with sweat, and his clothes stuck to his body, revealing his tight muscle curves, which had a unique beauty.
Qiao Yin accidentally glanced at it, and then... couldn't bear to look away.
The pursuit of beauty is human nature. In Qiao Yin's eyes, Chen Xiannian's figure is very beautiful. She noticed it when he was taking a shower last time. The bulging lines of his abdomen are so handsome that she really wants to touch it...
After Qiao Yin realized what she was thinking, her face felt hot and she quickly looked away. Fortunately, Shen Xiannian didn't notice, so Qiao Yin breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yinyin, why is your face so red? Is it because of too much sun?"
Shen Xiannian frowned and said, "Don't come tomorrow."
He felt bad about the sunburn.
Qiao Yin was stunned, laughed awkwardly twice, and quickly changed the subject, saying, "If I get sunburned after just a short while, then wouldn't you be getting skinned from working so long every day?"
"I'm a man, unlike you. Your tender skin turns red with just a little force from me."
Shen Xiannian originally had no other intentions, but as soon as he said this, he felt something strange.
His eyes unconsciously fell on Qiao Yin's bright red and tender lips and the fullness of her chest. His throat rolled a few times and he swallowed unconsciously.
"Where are you looking at, you filthy rascal!"
Qiao Yin noticed his gaze and felt surprised, embarrassed and angry.
"No...what did I do? I didn't see anything."
Shen Xiannian felt guilty, touched his nose, and pretended to be stupid and refused to admit it.
Qiao Yin snorted at him and refused to admit that she had seen everything, what a hooligan!
However, Shen Xiannian pulled her hand over, pinched the soft little hand in his hand, rubbed it a few times, and coaxed her as if she meant what she said:
"Okay, okay, you said I looked at it, so I looked at it. I really miss you."
After hearing this, Qiao Yin felt sweet in her heart. She pulled the hand that was held by her a few times, but failed to move it, so she let him go.
Anyway, she had just looked at his body and he didn't notice.
The villagers who had been watching this place from a distance saw the two of them holding hands in a sweet way and were fed a big mouthful of dog food.
I've discovered this side of Chen Xiannian before. Sure enough, no matter how tough a man is, he'll become soft and gentle in front of the girl he likes.
The villagers used to think that Qiao Yin found Chen Xiannian because she felt life in the countryside was too hard, and she didn't really want to live with him, and she would definitely dump Chen Xiannian in the future.
But now it seems that the relationship between the two is pretty good. Qiao Yin brings him food, wipes his sweat, and lets him hold her hand. It seems like she is sincere.
But there are still some people who don't believe it, thinking that Qiao Yin will run away sooner or later, and that she is just using her good relationship with Shen Xiannian.
Nie Hongxia was one of them. She thought, Qiao Yin was so attractive and had good conditions, why would she be willing to marry a peasant?
Just like her, she agreed to date Ge Erqiang in order to have a better life in the countryside, and she had no intention of having anything serious with him.
But Ge Erqiang was not as easy to fool as she thought. If she didn't agree to be with him, he would ignore her. Nie Hongxia had no choice but to give her body to him. Unexpectedly, she got pregnant and planned to get married next month.
Although Nie Hongxia was reluctant, she thought that many educated youth had settled down in Lushui Bay before, and the day of returning to the city was nowhere in sight. It would be better for her to marry Ge Erqiang, at least she wouldn't have to work so hard.
Now that she saw Qiao Yin had found a peasant like her, Nie Hongxia felt a secret joy and relief in her heart:
See? Even a beauty like Qiao Yin had to marry a country bumpkin. What was wrong with her choice?
Use this to soothe the injustice in your heart.
