Chapter 120 Cute Village Girl VS Innocent Educated Youth (6)
the next day.
Jiang Jiadong got up very early; he hadn't gone to bed until very late the night before and woke up before dawn. He had been waiting for Jiang Zhiyi to get up.
"Sister, let me fetch you some water to wash your face!" Jiang Jiadong brought her a basin of water very attentively.
"What kind of bad idea are you up to now?" Jiang Zhiyi saw right through his thoughts.
Jiang Jiadong glanced at his parents, who were also washing up, and leaned over to ask in a low voice, "Sister, did you really break up with your husband?"
Jiang Zhiyi didn't actually want her family to have any contact with Cheng Jiahe. Jiang Jiadong had been following her around every day for the past few days, which had been quite troublesome. This was a good opportunity to resolve the matter.
"Yes, you shouldn't go to see him anymore, and you can't play with his toy cars either," Jiang Zhiyi said coldly.
“You two can make up.” Jiang Jiadong was very sad; he didn’t want to leave his brother-in-law’s car.
“We can’t make up.” Jiang Zhiyi remained indifferent. She looked at Jiang Jiadong, who was hanging his head, and said, “I’ll find you a new brother-in-law. Who knows, he might have small boats and toy planes for you to play with. So you have to listen to me now.”
Jiang Jiadong was very interested; he also liked airplanes and ships. He asked expectantly, "When can I find a new brother-in-law?"
"I don't know. If you ask me again, I'll beat you up." Jiang Zhiyi was already getting impatient and shoved the person away.
Jiang Jiadong thought to himself that she was probably lying, and it would be more reliable for him to find a way to make them reconcile.
...
Several days passed quickly.
In the morning, Jiang Jiadong ran away from home under the pretext of herding cattle, and even made a special note that he would not be back for lunch.
He went directly to Cheng Jiahe's house, but didn't see anyone, so he went to the educated youth settlement instead.
Jiang Jiadong tied the cow to a pillar near the educated youth settlement and then walked over.
"Who are you looking for?" The people at the educated youth settlement saw a little child walk in through the door.
“I’m looking for Cheng Jiahe,” Jiang Jiadong replied.
"He's not here. What do you need him for?" A tall, handsome man in a navy blue shirt asked Jiang Jiadong.
"When is he coming back? I need to talk to him urgently... the kind of thing I can't tell you!"
The man chuckled and teased him, "What can't you say? Are you trying to do something bad at such a young age? I might arrest you."
"No! I really need to see him urgently." Jiang Jiadong was taken aback by the man's words and quickly explained.
"Then you sit here and wait for him. I don't know when he'll be back. But you have to promise not to cause any trouble here."
"Okay, thank you, brother!" Jiang Jiadong was very perceptive and started calling him "brother" repeatedly.
The man sat there organizing documents, very focused. Time flew by, and it was almost noon.
"Why don't you go back first?" The man said, noticing that he had been waiting there for a long time and that it was already lunchtime.
Although Jiang Jiadong had decided not to eat lunch when he left home, he was indeed very hungry, so he had no choice but to go back for the time being.
But when he got to the spot where he had tethered his cow, it was gone!
Jiang Jiadong was so anxious that tears welled up in his eyes.
What to do? He's lost the cow!
He's definitely going to get a good beating when he gets home!
Jiang Jiadong cried as he searched for his cow, making quite a commotion, which soon caught the attention of others.
It's the man from the educated youth settlement just now.
"What's wrong?" the man asked with great concern.
"Brother, my cow is lost, waaaaah..." Jiang Jiadong was extremely anxious, tears streaming down his face.
"I'll help you look for it, don't cry."
The man and Jiang Jiadong searched for the cow together. Before long, they found the lost cow in a nearby grove, where it was grazing peacefully.
Jiang Jiadong then wiped away his tears.
His beloved cow has finally been found.
"What's your name? Where do you live? I'll take you home now." Fearing something might go wrong again, the man decided to personally take him home.
"Thank you, brother. My name is Jiang Jiadong. What's your name, brother?" Jiang Jiadong decided to thank him properly later and give him his beloved paper airplane.
"I am Chen Yunyang." The man helped him lead the cow.
Inside the mud house.
"Brother, please sit here for a while." Jiang Jiadong poured Chen Yunyang a glass of water.
No one is home now; everyone has gone out. I only see food left for him on the table.
"No need, I'm leaving." Chen Yunyang didn't plan to stay here either; he needed to rush back for dinner.
"Okay, brother, wait for me a moment, I'll be right there!" Jiang Jiadong ran into the room and found his paper airplane, intending to give Chen Yunyang one.
"Brother, thank you for helping me find the cow today. This is a gift for you."
Chen Yunyang smiled and accepted it, saying, "Thank you. Come visit my house sometime. I have lots of toy airplane models."
Jiang Jiadong's mouth dropped open in surprise.
"I have to go now, goodbye."
Chen Yunyang had just reached the gate when he saw Jiang Zhiyi returning, which surprised him.
"Chen Zhiqing, what are you doing at my house?" Jiang Zhiyi had just returned from the fields where Jiang Xiangnong was working, still carrying a lot of farm tools. She walked to the side to put them down.
Chen Yunyang quickly went over to help her tidy up.
Jiang Jiadong came out and explained to her for a while.
After understanding what had happened, Jiang Zhiyi nodded and said, "Thank you for your help today, Chen Zhiqing."
Chen Yunyang: "Want to go for a walk together? I have some questions for you."
"Sister, you go ahead, I'll stay home alone!" Jiang Jiadong appeared just in time.
Jiang Zhiyi couldn't refuse, so she agreed.
Jiang Jiadong was thinking to himself that Chen Yunyang definitely liked his sister; the way he looked at his sister was just like how he looked at a toy car.
It seems this is his new brother-in-law, and the new brother-in-law really does have a small plane!
It turns out my sister wasn't lying.
Jiang Jiadong was overjoyed. He felt full of energy and took out a broom to sweep the entire yard.
Half an hour later.
Cheng Jiahe arrived, carrying a basket, clean bowls, and some food. He was there to return some things and also to talk to Jiang Zhiyi.
"You're here?" Jiang Jiadong didn't expect him to come here. Didn't he and his sister break up?
"Where's your sister?" Cheng Jiahe handed him the things in her hand and looked around a few times.
The house was indeed quite dilapidated, but at least it could still provide shelter from the wind and rain, and it was clean and tidy everywhere.
"Didn't you two break up?" Jiang Jiadong decided to voice his question directly.
Cheng Jiahe frowned, didn't answer, and asked again, "Where did she go?"
Jiang Jiadong sensed something was wrong, but he didn't know what to say, so he simply replied, "She went out and won't be back until tonight."
"Then remember to tell her to come see me tonight."
"Okay." Jiang Jiadong nodded.
Cheng Jiahe left without lingering.
Jiang Jiadong continued sweeping the floor, muttering to himself, "When will my sister come back? Haven't she broken up with her ex-brother-in-law? She's out with her new brother-in-law right now; they should be back after dinner..."
Cheng Jiahe, who was still outside the gate, happened to hear this and paused in his tracks.
What old brother-in-law? What new brother-in-law?
