Chen Xiaozhen arrived late and didn't know much, but she was good at observing people's words and expressions. She could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Qian Meili and He Jiefang. In addition, Bai Yongjun's expression was also a little embarrassed. Chen Xiaozhen didn't believe that there was nothing fishy about this.
They asked about it immediately. He Jiefang and Bai Yongjun were embarrassed to talk about such things, especially those involving female comrades, but it didn't matter, because there was Qian Meili. The carefree Qian Meili immediately told them that Aunt Du had asked Du Jiang about Li Hongjun and asked Du Jiang to act as a matchmaker.
After hearing the whole story, Chen Xiaozhen was extremely puzzled. "Shouldn't we find some elders or matchmakers for this kind of thing? I remember Du Jiang was a year younger than Meili, only eighteen."
“…”
“…”
He Jiefang and Qian Meili exchanged a glance. They had no way of refuting Chen Xiaozhen's words. As for Bai Yongjun, Chen Xiaozhen didn't expect to learn anything from him. Seeing that most of the people at the educated youth center had left, she became a little impatient and tentatively said, "Why don't we go and take a look too?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qian Meili and the others were all ready to make a move.
After struggling with homesickness for a long time, everyone couldn't resist curiosity, so after Du Jiang and Huo Yang left, they all followed them out.
Because Du Jiang didn't avoid everyone when he mentioned the location, everyone knew the meeting place.
At this time, Du Jiang, who was hiding in the grass, looked at Huo Yang, who was about ten feet away, with an embarrassed look on his face, then looked at Du Yingying and the other four people on the riverbank outside the grass, and continued to lie there, enduring the pain of mosquito bites on his arms.
But no one knew what the four people talked about. Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Du Jiang's patience was getting lower and lower. She moved slightly because her body was a little stiff from lying down, and wanted to get up, but was pressed down by the extra hand.
The frightened Du Jiang was about to scream but his mouth was covered by another hand.
"Hmm~"
"Shh, don't talk, it's me"
"It's us, don't say anything"
Du Jiang glanced at the two figures on both sides. Although his heart was still pounding, the tension he felt just now had disappeared. However, the hand on his mouth was still not put down. Du Jiang quickly nodded to signal Qian Meili to put down her hand.
As Qian Meili put it down, Du Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
"Since you all ran out, we came to see what's going on." Qian Meili crawled forward and whispered to Du Jiang, "Is that the one wearing Dacron and small leather shoes the village chief's daughter? She's so beautiful."
"Yeah," Du Jiang nodded. "Du Yingying, she should have just returned to the village today. I remember the mayor should have graduated from high school by now."
"That means she has just graduated. It's so difficult to get into university nowadays, so this girl might have come back to follow in her father's footsteps."
In response to Qian Meili's curiosity, Du Jiang shook his head to indicate that he didn't know either.
Just as the mosquito was biting at his neck again, Du Jiang couldn't help wanting to get up again, but Qian Meili and Chen Xiaozhen held him down together. "Hold on, hold on. It's not safe for you to go back alone now."
Okay, Du Jiang, who was persuaded, could only continue to lie in the grass and endure the bites of mosquitoes.
Not only Du Jiang, but everyone else was no exception. Although they were very curious at the beginning, their curiosity disappeared when they saw bumps one after another on their exposed skin. Not to mention that they had not eaten for some reason after work.
"Let's go," Qian Meili was a little impatient and wanted to retreat immediately.
After Du Jiang gently killed a mosquito that was desperately sucking blood from his arm, he was completely overwhelmed with fear and said, "Do whatever you want. I'll go back first."
Before she could stand up, someone grabbed her wrist again. Du Jiang looked at Chen Xiaozhen who was holding her with annoyance, "Sister Chen, if you want to feed the mosquitoes, do it yourself. Don't drag me into this."
"Really? If you leave, I'll call someone. What will happen if people find out that you arranged the meeting?" The handsome man and beautiful woman on the riverbank under the moonlight were sitting in front of flowers. It was a very beautiful scene, but Chen Xiaozhen felt uncomfortable watching it, as if there was someone like that who once stood with her on the riverbank, chatting about literature and family matters.
Du Jiang looked at the jealousy between Chen Xiaozhen's brows without saying a word. She just shook off the other party's grip and moved to Qian Meili's side. After she had put some distance between herself and Chen Xiaozhen, she turned her head and looked over Qian Meili to Huo Yang's side. There, several people were lying on the ground in a row. Except for Huo Yang, all of them held their heads high, and they were so excited that they seemed like they would get up from the ground and pounce on them in the next second.
Du Jiang looked for a while, and after meeting Huo Yang's gaze, she looked away uncomfortably. She didn't notice that after she looked away, Huo Yang's brows softened, and then turned cold and hard again in an instant.
Under the moonlight, the two-year-old boy and girl were still strolling leisurely on the riverbank. The two pairs, one in front and one behind, were not too far away but not too close. The handsome boy and the beautiful girl looked at each other from time to time. Although they could not hear the content of their conversation clearly because they were far away, they could still feel the atmosphere.
So, was this a success? Du Jiang thought uncertainly.
"Buzz buzz buzz~"
As the night grew darker, this place completely became a home for mosquitoes. Du Jiang turned his head to look at Qian Meili, whose face was covered with two large bites. He blinked hard and said silently, "Let's go back."
Qian Meili had lost her patience long ago. If Du Jiang hadn't just remembered that she was stopped by Chen Xiaozhen, she would have left long ago. She nodded at Du Jiang, saying she was hungry, then turned around and gave He Jiefang a slap as he looked up at her, then pulled Du Jiang back.
