Chapter 114 Going up the mountain to find gold
The next day, sunlight shone into the compartment through the window.
The single bed was too narrow. The tall man lay flat on his back with his body stretched out. A woman lay on him with her black hair spread out. The man's arm was on the woman's waist, and most of the quilt was wrapped around her.
Ye Rou was awakened by the beard. She opened her eyes and saw the man's head resting on her shoulder. One kiss after another landed on her face, lips, and neck...
She reached out and pressed Jiang Chen's face, pushing him away firmly, and complained softly, "It hurts."
Ye Rou's skin was flushed red from being pricked by the beard.
"You're so delicate." Jiang Chen said this, but he couldn't bear to kiss her.
Seeing that it was dawn, Ye Rou was afraid that her master would come and see her, so she quickly sat up and prepared to leave.
Jiang Chen's palm slid from Ye Rou's waist to the front, hugged her abdomen, pressed her tightly in his arms, and said, "It's just dawn, there's no rush."
Ye Rou lay on top of him, afraid of falling, and subconsciously reached out to hug Jiang Chen's waist: "If you don't let me get up, Master will definitely beat you up if he sees you."
Jiang Chen lowered his eyes to look at her. She had woken up early, with her black hair scattered on her cheeks and neck. Her face was flushed with the blush of a good sleep, and her fox eyes were filled with laziness as if she had just woken up. Jiang Chen just wanted to hold her in his arms for a long time, doing nothing, and staying in bed with her day and night.
Ye Rou noticed that Jiang Chen's eyes were gradually becoming dangerous. She slammed her hand on Jiang Chen's face, covering his eyes, and said softly, "It's time to get up."
"Hiss." Jiang Chen simply closed his eyes and said lazily, "I'll get up only if you kiss me."
Ye Rou placed a kiss on his lips and said perfunctorily, "Kiss, get up quickly."
She withdrew her hand, and Jiang Chen opened his eyes, his throat rolling slightly, and his eyes gradually became darker.
Ye Rou took advantage of his relaxation, jumped off the bed, straightened her white shirt, picked up her dark blue jacket and put it on.
As if she was guilty, she lowered her voice and said, "I'll go back and change my clothes later. Please don't say anything nonsense to Master."
Jiang Chen's hair had grown longer. Lying on his side on the bed, his black hair covering his eyes, he stared at Ye Rou and said slowly in a long drawl, "Little sweetheart, does this look like... an affair between you and me?"
"Not at all!" Ye Rou's faint smile froze and she glared at Jiang Chen.
Seeing that he was still smiling, he was so angry that he clenched his fist to hit him.
Jiang Chen grabbed her hand, played with it, and said nonchalantly, "I have to go out today and may not be back until tonight."
Ye Rou nodded, "Your wound has just healed, don't mess around with it, or you'll have to sew it up again if it breaks open again."
"I understand." Jiang Chen nodded in agreement.
Ye Rouan hurried back to Zhou's house, and under Zhou Nian's teasing gaze, she changed her clothes.
A pure cotton white long skirt, a denim vest, and braided hair...
While she was fixing herself, Zhou Nian watched silently from the side. After a while, she suddenly asked, "Have you and Jiang Chen reconciled?"
Ye Rou's hands froze and her eyes widened.
Zhou Nian smiled and said, "I guessed it when you didn't come back last night."
"But the most important thing is this." She lifted Ye Rou's long hair, revealing a bright pink kiss mark under her earlobe.
Ye Rou covered her mouth in panic, her face flushed red from Zhou Nian's teasing: "Zhou Nian, you've learned bad things."
Zhou Nian winked at Ye Rou: "I'm also very happy that you and he have reconciled."
That day, she and Zhao Cui sent Ye Rou to a blind date. They did not go into the state-owned hotel, but they did not walk too far either. They waited outside the hotel.
Later, Zhou Nian saw Ye Rou and a young man walking out of the hotel.
The two people stood together, one was bright and charming, the other was sunny and gentle, they were handsome men and beautiful women, but Zhou Nian just felt that they were not a match.
Ye Rou is so beautiful. The ancients often said that she is so beautiful that she has an enchanting aura. This should be the way to describe beauties like Ye Rou.
If Ye Rou and Fang Zhongxing get married, Ye Rou's beauty will probably be wasted in the future, and Ye Rou will become a woman who revolves around the kitchen, her husband, and her future children.
Ye Rou shouldn't have become a third-level woman. She is beautiful and has good medical skills. She should leave Dahe Village and Changdu Town and fight in a wider world. Fang Zhongxing can't accompany her.
Ye Rou couldn't stand Zhou Nian's teasing and ran away.
Before leaving, Aunt Zhou stuffed a lunch box in her hand and asked her to eat with Jiang Chen.
"Thank you, auntie."
Ye Rou rushed back to the clinic with her lunch box. Her master was busy in the medicine room. She tiptoed to the cubicle and carefully opened the door. There was no one inside.
She was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses when she remembered that Jiang Chen said he had something to do today.
"Are you disappointed that you didn't see him?" Doctor Liu suddenly appeared and asked with a stern face.
Ye Rou laughed dryly: "No."
Doctor Liu put his hands behind his back and sneered, "You didn't go home last night, did you?"
Ye Rou admired him and said, "Master, you are truly amazing. You can even guess this."
Doctor Liu glared at her. This was certainly not something he had guessed. He only found out about it because the brat showed off to him before leaving!
Seeing that her master's eyes were as big as copper bells and her chest was heaving violently, Ye Rou hurriedly said, "Master, Aunt Zhou made these mustard greens buns. I know you like them, so I brought them specially for you."
She raised the lunch box and waved it in front of her master.
Doctor Liu's expression softened.
After coaxing her master, Ye Rou breathed a sigh of relief.
As autumn approached, the village began to get busy preparing for the autumn harvest. There was less work at the clinic, so Ye Rou sorted out the Chinese medicinal herbs sent by the villagers.
A loud thunder roared, and then the sky became gloomy, and a moment later heavy rain poured down.
Ye Rou was startled and quickly got up to close the window.
The sky outside was covered with dark clouds and suddenly became gloomy. The chill of the autumn rain penetrated the bones. Ye Rou hugged her arms and thought of Jiang Chen outside, with worry on her face.
——
At the foot of the mountain behind Dahe Village, the rain gradually subsided.
Wang Meng was hiding in the grass wearing a military green raincoat. When he saw someone walking towards him from a distance, he narrowed his eyes.
After confirming that it was Yu Chengping, he jumped out of the bushes.
“Uncle Yu!”
Yu Chengping was startled by him. He wiped the rain off his face and said with a straight face: "Are you sure that person's information is accurate?"
Wang Meng knew that Yu Chengping was a suspicious person. He took out two gold bricks from his pocket and said with a smile, "Seeing this, you won't doubt that I'm lying to you, right?"
When Yu Chengping saw the two gold bricks, his eyes widened suddenly.
He heard Wang Mazi tell him about the gold in the mountain behind Dahe Village when he was drunk many years ago. Originally, he thought Wang Mazi was just talking nonsense, but every time he came to this area to sell goods, Wang Mazi would always go for a walk on the mountain of Dahe Village. He secretly followed him a few times and found that Wang Mazi was indeed looking for something.
He had an idea. He thought that as long as Wang Mazi found the gold, he would take advantage of the situation and kill Wang Mazi and steal the gold. With the money, he would take his wife and daughter abroad.
Unfortunately, Wang Mazi never found the gold until his death.
It was not until Wang Mazi's son Wang Meng came to him that Wang Meng believed even more firmly than his father that there was a pile of gold in Dahe Village.
Yu Chengping has been suspended from his post. He doesn't have much time left. Once Jiang Weiguo finds out about his dealings with Wang Meng over the years, there will be only one outcome waiting for him - execution!
This batch of gold is his last hope. With this gold, he can take his family away and never have to worry again.
Wang Meng stuffed the gold into Yu Chengping's hands and asked him to take a closer look.
Yu Chengping was in his fifties. He touched the gold with trembling hands, feeling mixed emotions.
He lowered his head and did not see Wang Meng's hateful eyes.
