Chapter 119 Cute Village Girl VS Innocent Educated Youth (5)
A few days later.
Li Jiaoyun stewed meat soup at noon, and she ladled out a bowl for Jiang Zhiyi to take to Cheng Jiahe.
"Zhizhi, go and take the soup to Cheng Zhiqing. We are so grateful to him for lending us money to repair the house. It's a pity that we don't have anything to give him. Please thank him properly."
"I understand, Mom." Jiang Zhiyi immediately took the soup to find Cheng Jiahe.
Educated youth settlement.
Several people were gathered around the main entrance, putting up notices. However, they only had a small wooden ladder, which was clearly not strong enough to support heavy weights. So, they had to let the petite Su Jingying stand on it to apply paste and then put up the notices.
Cheng Jiahe stood to the side holding a small basin filled with boiled flour paste, which was very useful for posting notices or couplets.
"Hey! Watch out!"
Su Jingying lost her balance and was about to fall off the ladder. There was a man holding the wooden ladder next to her, but he didn't dare to move. If he let go, the whole ladder would fall to the side.
"Cheng Jiahe, catch her quickly!" the man shouted.
In the urgency of the situation, Cheng Jiahe didn't even have time to put down the basin of glue he was holding; he went over to catch the person.
Once everyone had regained their footing, Cheng Jiahe immediately let go of their hands. He and Su Jingying were covered in paste and looked quite disheveled.
"Are you alright?" People gathered around.
"It's nothing, the notice has been put up, it's just that my clothes got dirty," Su Jingying replied, then looked at Cheng Jiahe.
Cheng Jiahe is a bit of a germaphobe. He frowned and said, "I'll go back and change my clothes."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
As soon as Cheng Jiahe reached the open space outside the educated youth settlement, he saw Jiang Zhiyi standing there with a small basket in her hand.
"Why are you here?" he asked.
"I brought you some soup." Jiang Zhiyi had actually arrived a while ago and had seen everything that had just happened. "Why did you hug her just now?"
Jiang Zhiyi felt she could use this opportunity to her advantage. She was very tired these past two days and didn't want to have to go to Cheng Jiahe's place to study every night. She wanted to rest for two days.
In particular, she had to pretend that she knew nothing, otherwise she might be exposed. Cheng Jiahe was very smart and might find out that she was not actually illiterate.
I might as well have a fight with him now, and then we'll give each other the silent treatment for a few days. That way, I can take a vacation.
Cheng Jiahe explained, "She almost fell just now, so I helped her up."
"Aren't there other people around? Why do you have to help them?" Jiang Zhiyi said angrily.
Cheng Jiahe lowered his eyes slightly. He wasn't good at explaining things, and besides, there was nothing to explain about what happened today.
The two were deadlocked for a time.
“Cheng Zhiqing?” Su Jingying also came out at that moment.
Jiang Zhiyi became even angrier. She said, "If I hadn't come today, would you and Cheng Jia have gone back with her later?"
Cheng Jiahe's chest heaved as he said coldly, "Don't be unreasonable."
"Where did I cause trouble? Am I wrong?" Jiang Zhiyi started yelling at him.
"Miss, have you misunderstood something?" Su Jingying quickly stepped forward to persuade her.
"Su Zhiqing, don't worry about it. This has nothing to do with you. I'll take her away first. Goodbye." Cheng Jiahe pulled Jiang Zhiyi away directly.
Right now, it's just Jiang Zhiyi arguing with him; it's a matter between the two of them, and it's not appropriate to involve outsiders.
The two arrived at a quiet place.
“There’s nothing between me and her, don’t misunderstand,” Cheng Jiahe emphasized again.
"I don't believe it! I saw it with my own eyes!" Jiang Zhiyi insisted.
She wouldn't listen, she insisted on having this argument today because she needed to take this break.
Cheng Jiahe sighed. He had no experience in arguing, and he didn't want to have any conflicts with her over such trivial matters.
"So what do you think we should do? Think of a solution yourself," he said.
Jiang Zhiyi was somewhat overwhelmed; his reaction was too weak, leaving her with no room to maneuver.
Is he planning to use this as an excuse to break up?
That won't do; that would be counterproductive.
Jiang Zhiyi thought for a moment, then said loudly, "We've broken up for three days! No, five days! I don't want to see you for these five days! Go back and reflect on your actions."
Cheng Jiahe frowned upon hearing this. He wanted to say something, but a basket was stuffed into his hand.
"This is the soup I brought you, take it home and drink it quickly. Also, you're filthy, go back and change your clothes. I'm leaving!"
Jiang Zhiyi ran away as soon as she finished speaking, without waiting for his reply.
She had already decided that after resting for five days, she would find an excuse to go to Cheng Jiahe's house to retrieve the basket and bowl, and then reconcile with him.
Cheng Jiahe looked at the basket in his hand, the aroma of meat soup wafting from it. He glanced at the paste on his clothes, said nothing, and turned to go home.
Jiang Zhiyi is just a little girl throwing a tantrum right now, I'll go see her again in a few days.
After returning home.
"Sister, when are we going over today?" Jiang Jiadong had been waiting for her. He had been going over with Jiang Zhiyi almost every day these past few days, and then he would play with his toy cars on the side, extremely happy.
"I won't be going over in the next few days," she said.
"Why? Sister, what happened between you and brother-in-law?" Jiang Jiadong asked her quickly.
Jiang Zhiyi didn't want children involved in these things, so she replied irritably, "I've already broken up with him, and you're not allowed to see him anymore."
Jiang Jiadong stood there, stunned and very anxious.
Little Cuihua at the west end of the village and Big Iron Ox at the east end of the village can break up; the little ducks in the paddy fields and the chicks in the vegetable garden can break up; the sun during the day and the moon at night can break up...
But he and his car can't be separated!
no……
But his sister and brother-in-law can't break up!
Jiang Jiadong was so anxious that he couldn't sleep all night, tossing and turning, unable to sit still.
He has to find a way to make them reconcile!
