Chapter 28 Apology
Jin Bei's face turned pale. She didn't expect that the whispers she had in her own vegetable garden were actually heard by several children.
The child's words were earth-shattering, and Tan Yanlu was also surprised. She immediately took advantage of the situation and asked Jin Bei in a harsh voice: "Jin Bei, what else do you have to say?
It can't be that this kid is talking nonsense again. You have to think it over carefully. If I call those kids over to confront you, not only will you be embarrassed, but Accountant Jin will also be embarrassed.
Please apologize to me immediately, and you must compensate me for the kettle, otherwise I will ask the captain to judge the matter. ”
The people around who were watching the fun were pointing and talking. Jin Bei knew that she could no longer make excuses, but she bit her lip and refused to apologize.
Jin Bei was spoiled by her family since she was little, and it was harder than climbing to the sky for her to apologize.
In addition, at this moment, her little thoughts were exposed. She saw Lian Xiuran standing aside from the corner of her eye and felt embarrassed.
The girl was very shy and tears welled up in her eyes unconsciously.
Many people also came to persuade Tan Yanlu to take a step back.
It’s not that Tan Yanlu doesn’t want to back down, she also knows that she has just arrived in the countryside and it would be bad to have too much conflict with the locals.
But at least Jin Bei has to apologize first. Is it that difficult for someone who has done something wrong to bow his head and apologize first?
It was at this time that Accountant Jin received the news and rushed over.
Apparently he already knew the whole story on the way. Jin Bei did tell him last night that she wanted to get rid of Tan Yanlu.
But Accountant Jin did not agree, and he asked his daughter how Tan Yanlu had offended her, but Jin Bei refused to say.
Accountant Jin thought that there was some conflict between the two girls at the time, and thought that every girl would be competitive and fight for the top sometimes, so he didn't take it seriously.
But today, his daughter was caught red-handed, and he knew that things were not that simple. At least his daughter had ulterior motives.
So, as soon as Accountant Jin saw Tan Yanlu, he kept saying nice things to her: "Hey, Tan Zhiqing, I'm so sorry.
I have spoiled my daughter. I would like to apologize to you here. I am really sorry.
Look, can I buy this kettle for you? Or I can use my connections to get you a new one. ”
Accountant Jin was sincere, so Tan Yanlu didn't hold on to the matter anymore.
After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current manager. Accountant Jin is an official, and when it is time to back down, Tan Yanlu will naturally back down: "Accountant Jin, I was a little impulsive. I shouldn't have said it in front of so many people."
Accountant Jin waved his hand and said, "It's my daughter's fault. What do you think we should do about this kettle?"
Tan Yanlu was also very conflicted at this time. She originally didn't want this kettle, but if she really asked the Jin family to buy a new one, then even if she was right today, she would become the unreasonable one later.
People will probably say, isn’t it just a piece of child’s urine? Why don't you just wash it and scald it with boiling water? Why bother buying a new one?
It’s hard to say, Tan Yanlu might be labeled as a capitalist lady.
After hesitating for a while, Tan Yanlu said, "You don't have to pay for it, but my pot is dirty. It's not too much to help me clean it."
But Tan Yanlu was afraid that she would never use this kettle again, and she felt uncomfortable.
Accountant Jin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Tan Yanlu take a step back. It was not that he could not afford a kettle, but his family was reluctant to buy one for themselves. If he bought one as compensation to someone else, he would be heartbroken.
He quickly assured, "That's for sure. Don't worry. I'll take your pot back in a minute and have my mouth wash it clean for you. Then I'll boil some water for you to scald it. I guarantee there won't be any smell."
Tan Yanlu glanced at Jin Bei again and said, "Accountant Jin, I don't think this kind of thing will happen again in the future.
This time I happened to see it. If I hadn’t seen it, I would have been fooled in vain.
What if next time it’s not the child who peed, but something else was put in there, and if something goes wrong with the food I eat, what do you think I should do? ”
Accountant Jin nodded repeatedly: "I promise you that there will never be a next time. I will discipline her when I go back.
Girl, come here and apologize to Tan Zhiqing. ”
Jin Bei glanced at Accountant Jin with a stern expression and tears began to fall. She stammered softly, "I'm sorry," then turned around and ran away.
The matter was settled and Tan Yanlu won a great victory.
Jiang Panyu also successfully received the reward. When he returned to work, he opened a piece of nutritious milk candy and ate it, and then drank a sip of brown sugar water. Life was really sweet.
When Jiang Panyu and Tan Yanlu got off work at noon and went home together,
Jiang Panyu reminded her: "Yanlu, be careful when you go out next time, and don't be alone."
"What's going on? Why did you suddenly say something like that?" Tan Yanlu was puzzled.
"Didn't you have a fight with Jin Bei this morning? When I went back to work,
I heard from the aunties that Jin Bei is the only girl in the three generations of the Jin family.
It is said that Jinbei is very spoiled at home. He has many brothers. I heard that he has more than a dozen brothers and cousins in total.
No one dares to bully Jin Bei when she goes out. She has always been the one bullying others. You made such a scene today. Even though you are right, will others listen to you?
What if Jin Bei gets so angry that she asks her brothers to bully you?
That's why I asked you to be careful when you go out and never be alone. ”
Tan Yanlu smiled and said seriously, "Okay, I understand. Thank you, Panyu. I'll treat you to some brown sugar water when we get back."
Jiang Panyu did not refuse: "Okay, add more sugar, I want a sweet drink."
"no problem!"
After a day of work, in the evening, after dinner and washing up, Jiang Panyu moved a small stool and sat in the yard while there was still a ray of light in the sky.
She spread out her left hand and saw several blisters on it. It was because she used a new hoe to work today, and the blisters formed after being rubbed for a long time.
Jiang Panyu took out a needle and pricked the blister expressionlessly, then wiped it clean with a towel and applied red medicine, and then did the same with his right hand.
Tan Yanlu was watching from the side, grimacing in pain: "You've pierced it, it will be more painful to work tomorrow."
Jiang Panyu shook his head and said, "That's because you've never done farm work. If you prick the blister, it will heal quickly after applying the medicine. It will heal almost overnight. When you have calluses in the future, it will be less likely to get blisters.
If I don't pick it now, it will hurt more when I work tomorrow. And if the blister is rubbed open while I work,
When sand rubs into your flesh, it is extremely painful and can easily cause infection. ”
Tan Yanlu couldn't help but shudder when she heard this. Her palms also began to ache slightly, as if she could already feel the sand grinding into her flesh. "Shh, stop talking, stop talking. I already feel the pain. I'll pick the blisters like you."
"Let me help you. You look like you can't do it yourself."
Jiang Panyu picked up a needle to pick the blisters for Tan Yanlu. In order to divert her attention, Tan Yanlu asked Jiang Panyu a question: "I see why you are so optimistic. Don't you think farming is hard? Don't you want to go back to the city?"
Of course I thought about going back to the city, but isn't there no chance now?
As for whether farming is hard or not, Jiang Panyu can only say that people have different fates.
Tan Yanlu was a city girl from a well-off family. She had never suffered any hardship before, so naturally she found farming extremely difficult.
